Medium texture, normal porosity and elasticity...let's share!
I would love to see what products others with these properties are using along with favorite combos, techniques, etc.! I realize it also depends on where you live, weather, etc. I've tried reading other curlies/waveys signatures to see who has similar properties but it can get overwhelming!!! I though it might be nice to have a thread where we could share this information. :) thank you in advance!!!
I will start first. I live in a dry climate where the average dew point is in the 30's year round, so I've recently tried using products without glycerin or where the glycerin is not high in the ingredients list and liking the results.

Having wonderful results/success with the MAP method (ScottMusgrave)
Great topic! I'm new to CG, just got my hair properties and am still trying to sort out which products my hair loves, which it hates, and in what combinations. Here's what I've got in my stash so far:
Low Poo: Jessicurl Gentle Cleanser, Burt's Bees More Moisture with Jojoba
RO: Jessicurl Aloeba, Burt's Bees More Moisture with Jojoba
LI: JC Aloeoba, JC TooShea!, CJ Beauticurls Leave In
Stylers: JC Gelebration Spray, Confident Coils, CJ Pattern Pusha, Zotos Pure Elements Alcohol Free Medium Hold Gel
Testing: JC Rockin Ringlets
Trying to decide if CO-washing will work for me, and have used the BBMM for that a couple of times. Still looking for a frizz killer...I live in hot, humid Houston, Texas and don't know what will work here.
Tried a couple of curl refreshers (JC Awe Inspiraling, Deva Mist-er Right) and hated the waxy sticky feeling I got from them.
My hair type and hair products are all listed in my sig.
I live where it's humid half the year and dry half the year. I really don't change my routine much from season to season, tho I tend to use more Ojon in the winter when my hair loses definition.
Curlsnswirls, we're not completely hair twins, but based on your product list, it looks like our hair likes the same things. My hair is fine, normal porosity, and normal elasticity. Although it's fine, it's pretty dense, so I can handle some heavier products. I also live in a dry climate (Colorado) so the dews are in the 20-30 range most of the year (with the exception of a few months in late spring/early summer when dews are above 40). So, most of the time I try to avoid glycerin/humectants too high up the list, and my hair craves moisture big time. Here are some of my fave products so far:
L'Oreal Evercreme
Conditioner (RO):
Tresemme Naturals (moisture)
Suave Naturals (everlasting sunshine)
GVP conditioning balm
DB pumpkin seed
Giovanni direct LI
SM curl & style milk
As I Am LI
CK satin roots
Cure care
DB curl styling cream
DB cream gel
BS curls stretch gelee
EO serum
Grapeseed oil
Apricot oil
Sweet almond oil
I have become a hopeless PJ, and I too love to experiment. So far, I am LOVING anything from DB. I haven't tried much of the CK line, but love the LI and would like to try some of the other products. Same with BS- the gelee is awesome, and I would like to try more of that line. I guess my hair prefers the more natural, boutique type products. I ordered a slew of samples of LI and gelee type products from kathymack (including CRN, Marie Dean, UFD, Shescentit, BS, etc.) and have been having tons of fun. I don't really like traditional gels, and have found that I prefer curl creams, cream gels and gelees. I prefer to have soft, touchable hair and will sacrifice some hold/definition for that. I used to think I had a protein sensitivity, but I think I just needed to get the protein/moisture balance correct, and cut down on humectants. I've never tried straight coconut oil, but my hair seems to like it in products so that's on my list.

Jsuzkelley, we do like/use a lot of the same products! There are a couple I haven't tried though, the L'oreal Evercreme and the As I Am leave in. I've been wanting to try them both out because I've been hearing good things about them. I have more products than what are listed in my siggy :tongue1:....those are just the ones I use more consistently. I want to start experimenting by using the same product combos for one week at a time and see which ones work consistently. This may help narrow down my faves. There are few more products that I'd like to try though, CJ pattern pusha, the two I mentioned already, BB's FSG, As I Am jelly, and can't remember which others right now. I do like to experiment:cheese:. I was really liking cur keeper but I seemed to get a little dry after a while. I was amazed at being able to use just one styler and nothing else...I may bring it back out and alternate with other products to keep my hair balanced.
My hair hasn't met an oil it didn't like so far, which I'm glad about. Off to experiment some more.......:thumbright:

Jsuzkelley, how are you liking the Oyin hair dew? I've been eyeing that and a few other items. I'm thinking of ordering the snack pack but curlmart is out of them.
Sent from my iPhone using CurlTalk
Thank you! Just wanted to update...I've been auditioning a few mousses (?). I've been pleasantly surprised at the results so far. First of all I never would have thought that I could get away with just some leave in and one styler!!! I have been having awesome results with either just a LI and curl keeper and now a LI and just mousse!!! So far I've tried the 3-in-1 mousse (purple can), GVP PM sculpting foam and joiwhip. I like them all..now to see which one holds up the best. There is one more I want to try, beyond the zone from Sally's. I'm loving the simplicity of just one styling product. I may not get away with it during the winter, but for now it's working!! I definitely need to go through my product stash and clear out the cupboards!! I'm narrowing down my search for staple products! Although there are a few conditioners I'd like to try out from Oyin and one from ingredients to die for :D.
I just got my properties from Live Curly Live Free, and they said I am medium, normal, normal! I had thought my hair was fine with low porosity, so I think it leans slightly that way, but I guess I'm close to the middle.
I live in Northern Virginia, which has crazy high dew points right about now. I can't really use a leave-in conditioner in this weather. I've tried out a bunch of products since I went CG, including:
Deva Low-Poo (a-ok)
Deva OneCondition (too moisturizing, had to switch to something else for the summer, also has hops which causes me to break out)
Deva Mister Right (not feeling it, doesn't really do much except cause frizz and it stinks)
Deva Angel (eh, kinda sticky, could have more hold)
Kinky Curly Curling Custard (love it, works great)
Kinky Curly Knot Today (eh)
Loreal EverSleek Serum and Cream (smooths frizz pretty well, smells great)
Yes to Carrots conditioner (good)
CJCCCCL and AG:recoil (too heavy and sticky for summer)
Aloe Vera Gel (not enough hold)
Curl Keeper (like it, have to use a lot)
AIF (super strong hold, kinda drying)
So as you can see, my routine is still a work in progress. If anyone else with similar properties wants to chime in that would be great!
Hi all!
First post, but been lurking for a while.
I also just got my live curly live free analysis and I'm normal porosity, medium density, normal elasticity too! I think I lean coarse and low po, but not a huge difference in dos and dont's.
I'm glad you started this thread for us!
So I normally live in Seattle which has nice to just under not so nice dew points all year. But I've spent this summer in south Florida with crazy humidity and high dew points in the 70s.
I finally figured out that less is so much more in this summer tropical weather.
Here's my easy regime:
Alaffia Shea and Virgin Coconut Enriching shampoo.
KCKT as RO.
Kiss my face upper management gel scrunched in wet hair. Scrunched wet hair to damp with Tshirt. Gel scrunch again. I don't plop! (blasphemy, i know, but it just doesn't work for me). Then let gel set then SOTC with another tshirt and I've got big soft bouncy waves and little to no frizz. Happy waves abound! With only three products!
I'll be experimenting more when I get back to Seattle. But I think I'm going to keep on keeping on with the Less is More for this kind of hair texture.
What do you think?
I'm also thinking that the Alaffia has too many emollients and it can make my hair stringy not clumpy. I really love the smell so Hm. Anyone have any suggestions there?
I have been having consistent awesome results for a while now with a few products and I'm in love!! These are now my staples!!
I either cowash (conditioner or cleansing conditioner), use a shampoo/soap bar or an occasional low poo.
Use a variety of conditioners for rinse out and leave in.
Seal with a little oil.
Use either curl keeper, BB's or Truepolaris (etsy) FSG or BB's Mudd.
That's it!! My routine is now simplified and I'm having fantastic results. I love not having to layer a bunch of products. I just hope these work in the winter. If they do, then I'm set!!
Just got my analysis back....
3B....Live Curly Live Free Analysis: Texture = Medium Porosity = Normal/Elasticity = Normal
Wash: Desert Essence coconut shampoo/Loreal evercreme conditioning cleanser
Condition: AO_Honeysuckle, Desert Essence Coconut, AO white Camillia, AO island naturals
STYLE: CJCIAB/AOMM Jelly
Staple: Jojoba Oil

Hi all! I just got my hair analysis back too! I was surprised to find that I have medium texture (not coarse), medium porosity (really?) and elasticity. I was kinda hoping one would come back as really extreme so I might have an explanation as to why my hair is always soooo frizzy. But alas no. My stylers are in my siggy.
Curlsnswirls - I also live in a very dry climate (CO). I have been scared to try SSCEJ and CKCJ because of the salts (I think my hair hates these but it could just be the dry climate). Any thoughts on these products? I am loving the combo of KCCC and AIF with KCKT as a leave-in, though I might be overdoing the KCKT because my hair kinda gets limp as the day goes on. Glad you are having good results with FSG and CK! I need to try both again.
I tried the KCCC/AIF combo tonight over Oyin hair dew. So far my hair looks great. I will see how it fairs tomorrow. I was really hoping to get KCCC to work for me again since I have a jar and a half. I remember when it did work, it gave me really great 2nd day hair. I'll report back.
Hi everyone! I got my hair analysis results back a bit ago and I've joined your medium-normal/normal ranks :) We have such a small corner of the forum!
I'm still very new to this whole thing, so I haven't done a ton of experimenting, but here are some of the things I've tried:
I'm still trying to find a good moisture/protein balance; my next plan for experimentation is to try a RO conditioner with keratin.

I've been using them sort of sporadically...I'm still trying to figure out how much I can handle. I dye my hair and was in a straightening frenzy right before I started CG/found this site, so I have/had some damage ;)
I tried the Aubrey Organics GPB (yet another protein experiment) but didn't like it (found it too oily)...that was during my SheaMoisture adventure, though, so maybe I didn't give it a fair shot. I've seen good things about the Honeysuckle one? You have a bunch in your siggie! Do you have a favorite?

When I joined the writing program here in 1991, I thought of myself as a fiction writer. In the years since then, I've found myself drawn to other genres. My new book, Rachel in the World, is a memoir, as were the two books that preceded it. I've published essays in such places as Ms. Prairie Schooner, Massachusetts Review, The New York Times Magazine, Self, and Creative Nonfiction and written several scripts, among them the screenplay for Seven Minutes in Heaven, a Warner Brothers Film.

My scholarship and teaching focuses on legal rhetoric and argumentation, the relationship between legalism and casuistry in forensic discourse, the rhetoric of nationalism and globalization, professional and technical writing, and the history and theory of rhetoric. My current book project explores the rhetorical strategy by which groups unite against common enemies as it appears in a series of judicial cases between 1878 and 1952 deciding whether petitioners for naturalized citizenship in the United States were "free white persons" as required by the United States naturalization act at the time. My scholarship has appeared in the Yale Journal of Law and the Humanities, the Journal for the Association of Legal Writing Directors, and the University of Miami Race and Social Justice Law Review.

My research and teaching have been centered on the connections between rhetoric (discourse) and grammar (linguistic structure). I am interested in working out the implications of an idea first broached by me in 1988, that structure is not immanent in a language but "emerges" through repetitions of favored word groupings in discourse.

You Could Be Forced To Pay A "Fat Tax" If Airlines Think You Are Too Heavy
A new cost could be added to your plane travels. Airlines are noticing that more people are overweight, larger people make the airlines have to use more fuel to run their planes. More fuel costs money, so in order to pay for the extra fuel, airlines want the people who are obese to pay their fair share.

The State of Israel turns 60 years old this May, but rather than highlighting the nation's survival in a hostile region over six decades, U.S. News & World Report aimed to focus on discontent from Israeli Arabs, and to suggest that Israel's sovereignty was in and of itself the cause of "six ensuing decades of bloody conflicts."
"On the Eve of Israel's 60th Birthday, Little Cheer Among Its Arab Citizens," declares the headline for Larry Derfner's April 30 story.
Derfner explained how many Israeli Arabs commemorate May 14, Israel's Independence Day, as Nakba, or the "Day of Catastrophe" (emphasis mine):
More and more Israeli Arabs view Independence Day, which celebrates Israel's victory over the Arabs in the 1948 War of Independence, as the Day of Catastrophe, or Nakba in Arabic. Israel's 1.4 million Arab citizens are descendants of the Palestinians who remained in the country after the war, which turned the great majority of their people into refugees, cost them a state, and set the stage for six ensuing decades of bloody conflicts. "For us, it's a day of sadness, of mourning," says Amira Shawahna, a teacher marching in the recent annual Israeli Arab "Land Day" protests in Galilee against the state's historical policy of expropriating land from Arab localities and giving it to Jewish ones.
Derfner went on to note the history of the Nakba commemorations and grievances the minority Arabs have had against Israeli governments, such as martial law from 1949 to 1966, and concluded on a sour note (emphasis mine):
This Independence Day will be the 60th annual celebration of a war Israel's Jews won and Israel's Arabs lost. It is a day of national division—of unity among the country's majority and counter-unity among the minority.
Nowhere in Derfner's article did he explain how state-sponsored terrorism from Syria, Lebanon, and Iran has threatened Israeli civilians regardless of religion or ethnicity. What's more, nowhere in his article did Derfner delve into how Israeli Arabs have higher living standards and more political and religious liberties than their Palestinian counterparts. Indeed, Israeli Arabs compromise the leadership of numerous municipalities, including Nazareth, the Galileean hometown of Jesus Christ.
What's more, Israeli Arabs have two political parties in Israel's Knesset, the left-wing group Hadash and the larger faction Ra'al-Ta'al, which calls for, among other things, the establishment of a Palestinian state with Israel as its capital and a "right of return" for Palestinian refugees to return to and permanently settle in Israel proper. A search of the Knesset Web site reveals a storied history of Israeli Arab involvement in the nation's political history through the colorful evolution of that nation's volatile parliamentary politics.
It's worthwhile covering the grievances of Israeli Arabs, many of which are legitimate, but focusing exclusively on such complaints on the eve of Israel's 60 is a real journalistic "catastrophe."

CANADA STOCKS-TSX opens higher as Encana shares rise on deal
TORONTO, May 7 (Reuters) - Canada's main stock index opened higher on Wednesday as shares of Encana Corp jumped after the company's $3.1 billion U.S. shale deal, with investors also awaiting congressional testimony from U.S. Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen. The Toronto Stock Exchange's S&P/TSX composite index was up 20.66 points, or 0.14 percent, at 14,632.95 shortly after the open. (Reporting by John Tilak; Editing by James Dalgleish)

Project Description: Yiaway worked in the City of Somerville's new SomerStat office in the Mayor's office and consulted with the Department of Public Works. The city sought to move its trash services from a line-item expense using property tax revenue, to a resident user fee that captured the actual cost of trash services. Yiaway researched the financing, organizational structure, legal constraints, and made recommendations on how to implement a Pay-As-You-Throw program, based on an activity-based costing analysis of trash services. Mayor Joseph Curtatone of Somerville approved the proposal for a Uniform Container program in the commercial sector and a Basic Service PAYT program in the residential sector, with implementation slated for July 2006. The projected cost savings for the City in the first year of the PAYT program is nearly $4 million.

Need a good shopvac, not like the lousy thing I have from Sears
I have a Sears 3 hp 6 gallon shopvac.
Mine won't pick up dust. Anything half an inch beyond the end of the hose won't even be disturbed, except maybe by the noise. There's nothing else it produces that could disturb anything.
If I use the hose as a giant eraser and scrub it across the surface I want to clean, it will disturb the dirt enough so that anything in direct contact that's light enough will get sucked into the machine. Yes, I've changed filters and tried to keep it clean.
The bottom line is that an rag is a easier, more powerful solution for clean-up than this expensive noisemaker from sears. When I try to clean surfaces in my shop or home with this thing, the only sign I've attempted are the marks or tracks the physical contact of the attachment I was using made in the dust I was trying to clean. Other than the tracks the tool physically made in the dust, the dust is undisturbed.
Don't get me wrong. If I take the attachments off and put the bare hose against my hand, it will bite and hang on. Once the end of the bare hose is w/in a 1/4 inch of something, such as my hand, the suction becomes powerful. But as I said, move the hose a 1/4 inch further away and my hand, and the dirt, might as well be on the moon. Sears tells me everything is fine.
Is this how shop vacs are supposed to work? I wouldn't know. I always used rags before to keep things clean.

FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. – The NAU volleyball team will host Arizona State, Grand Canyon, Fort Lewis, and Yavapai College for spring matches on Saturday in Rolle Activity Center. The Lumberjacks will play each team in best-of-three matches while the other schools will also face each other with two concurrent courts in use. Action will begin at 10 a.m. with free admission.
The Lumberjacks will play Yavapai College at 10 a.m., Fort Lewis at 11 a.m., Grand Canyon at 1 p.m., and close against Arizona State at 3 p.m. The team is also scheduled to play at Arizona State again on April 14.
"The spring as a weird time because kids want to just go out and play," NAU head coach Craig Choate said. "For coaches it's more about fixing the technique of things and I think we're making some progress. There are some people that are shifting to new positions, and I think we're showing some signs in those spots of really nice things to come."
The team opened spring play last Saturday in Tucson, playing two-set matches against Arizona, UTEP, and New Mexico State. NAU split matches against both UTEP and New Mexico State, and after losing its first match against the host Wildcats, took a 25-16 first set decision against Arizona in a second match in which a second set was not played.
"We played hard last weekend and on the whole I was happy with Saturday," added Choate. "We had the fewest bodies in the gym and we were more than ready for the matches. It's easy to make strides in practice, but we weren't as aggressive attacking the ball as I'd like us to be. It takes a long time to mesh the two; it's easy to practice but it's hard to put practice into application."
NAU has eight returning letter winners on its spring roster, including five players who will be seniors next season. Libero Anna Gott and middle blocker Sydney Kemper return as All-Big Sky honorees and are two of six returning starters. The team also has three incoming freshman signed to begin their collegiate careers at NAU in the fall.
"It will be a nice test this week with ASU and I think this weekend should be fun for us," said Choate. "It's always fun to be at home and see people come and watch. Playing is more fun than practicing so they will be up for it."

Left rear turn signal lamp out
I've had my 2011 Grand cherokee for coming up on 3 years (halloween) and I've had to replace the left rear turn signal lamp twice in that time. Once within 6 months of purchase, and the 2nd just today. The right rear one is fine. I don't recall having made more left turns than right but wonder if anyone else has this same issue. Thankfully it isnt that hard to replace. :confused:
Re: Left rear turn signal lamp out
Seems a few of us have replaced the bulbs. Suggest everyone use the Wagner brand 3157 bulb. It's made to heavy duty specs.

Airports. It was going to be a long flight, 12 and a half hours, I went to the mens room. I was about to walk out, it was busy, when I saw a head look over one of the cubicles. I washed , walked out, thought about it, went back in, I had about a half hour wait before being called.I watched, the head appeared, I looked at him, he nodded, I waited until the room was almost empty and tried the door to his cubicle, it opened, he was sitting on the toilet, he looked at me, I unzipped, moved forward and he took my semi hard cock in his mouth, he was good, I felt my cumm rising, I said now and he pulled me toward him, my cumm jetting into his mouth, swallowing, emptying me, I moved back,wiped myself, he smiled, I dressed and left relaxed for my flight.

Oysters Rocafella
"We created this dish as an homage to Jay-Z. He inspires us," says Mario Carbone about the rapper and cofounder of the Roc-A-Fella record label. "The original dish was named for John D. Rockefeller. He was money back then, and to us, Jay-Z is money in New York City now." Carbone tops the oysters with a tangy vinegar-shallot mignonette, plus a Champagne-infused foam and frozen Champagne grapes.
Slideshow:More Oyster Recipes
- Total Time:
- Servings: 4 first-course servings
- 2 teaspoons sugar
- 2 teaspoons water
- 1/2 cup Champagne or sparkling wine
- 1/4 cup fresh grapefruit juice
- 2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
- 1/4 cup Champagne vinegar
- 1 small shallot, minced
- Freshly ground pepper
- 2 dozen bluepoint or other East Coast oysters, shucked on the half shell
- Crushed ice and coarse salt, for serving
- 1 tablespoon dried egg-white powder (see Note)
- 1 to 2 bunches of Champagne grapes or small seedless red grapes, frozen until solid, halved if large
How to make this recipe
In a microwave-safe cup, combine the sugar and water. Cook at high power for 20 seconds. Stir until the sugar dissolves, then let cool.
In a small stainless steel bowl, combine the sugar syrup, Champagne and citrus juices. Set the bowl over a larger bowl of ice and keep cold. In another small bowl, combine the vinegar and shallot and season with pepper.
Arrange the shucked oysters on a bed of crushed ice and coarse salt. Add the egg-white powder to the Champagne-citrus juice mixture and beat with a handheld mixer or immersion blender until thick and frothy.
Spoon a little of the vinegar-shallot mixture over the oysters and a little of the Champagne froth on top. Garnish with the frozen Champagne grapes and serve right away.
Egg-white powder is available at health food stores and most supermarkets.
Suggested Pairing
Carbone and Torrisi pair Jay-Z's favorite Champagne, Armand de Brignac (a.k.a. Ace of Spades), with this dish. Domaine Chandon's NV Brut Classic is also terrific and much, much less expensive.

No added fees on midweek matinee performances
A hot ticket
Looking for a great night out on the town? Why not pick up some of Theatreland's hottest tickets for less and see The Book of Mormon with us. The show was an instant sensation when it arrived on the West End stage in 2013, having already played to sold-out houses and cleaned up at the major theatrical award ceremonies during the first year of its Broadway run, feats which it has since repeated in London, where it is playing at the Prince of Wales Theatre just by Leicester Square.
Award-winning talent
Created by Matt Stone and Trey Parker, the men behind the anarchic South Park, and Robert Lopez, one of the composers of the hit show Avenue Q and an Oscar-winner for writing Frozen's instant classic Let It Go, The Book of Mormon skilfully combines controversial humour with traditional musical theatre style (listen closely and you'll hear references to shows like The Lion King, West Side Story and Wicked), as well as a surprising amount of affection for its subject matter.
Savage satire
Telling the story of two young and naïve Mormon missionaries as they are sent out from Salt Lake City to find converts in Uganda, The Book of Mormon is a sharp, savage and satirical show, with an intelligent message, not to mention great songs and performances, and a fair amount of filthy humour. Looking for a laugh and an ultimately uplifting night at the theatre? Just say "Hasa Diga Eebowai!" to the stress of the working week and book some cheap The Book of Mormon tickets with us.
A real crowd, and critic, pleaser
The Book of Mormon has won nine Tony Awards, a Grammy and four Olivier Awards, as well as almost universally glowing reviews, from critics, audiences and even members of the lastminute.com team. Mark, one of our copywriters, is a big fan, and had this to say about the show; "I laughed 'til I cried, and came out humming many of the show's songs; they're all so good that it was impossible to pick a favourite". In fact, the soundtrack album is now one of his go-to listens on the morning commute into the office, and he's planning to see the show again. With our cheap The Book of Mormon tickets you might soon be thinking of doing the same.
Seating Plan Disclaimer
Please note: The seating plans are not accurate representations of the auditorium. While we try to ensure they are as close to the actual theatre plan as possible we cannot guarantee they are a true representation. Customers with specific requirements are advised to discuss these with the theatre prior to booking to avoid any confusion.

You're right Rev. There is coming a time that people like us are going to have to stand together. The World is falling apart, and the Government are planning evil things. It is only a matter of time before everything goes south and this country falls apart. Governments are planning on Wide Spread blackouts late December, there are going to be FEMA camps in which people are forced to live and die, and the microchips that the Government are wanting to implant in people sounds an awful lot like "The Mark of the Beast" in the bible. Obama and the U.N. are wanting to take our guns, and the people in the U.K are warning America to not let that happen. The Government is Genetically Modifying our food, and refusing to post labels on things with GMOs, and since the Head of the FDA is the old leader of Monsanto he says things are all good. There is Fluoride in our water, and the Weather is becoming more and more severe. I just hope people hurry and wake up, because one way or another this world is gonna come screeching to a halt.
And for anyone that wants to say I am crazy, or I don't know what I am talking about I challenge you to do the research and see for yourself. I guarantee that you will not like what you find.

Repent anon666, confess christ before men, be immersed in water and rise a new being of god. He warned of these things. In Revelation people in the old days wondered how the whole world would witness...the invention of TV is in itself a testament to god. I believe we are waiting for the great quake and shortly after the rise of the antichrist, from there it will be very rapid. God bless brother, and think it over. Ill use your words...dont believe me? Read Revelation, you may not like what you find. However read the gospels and do as the lord says, and it wont matter. Time is running out..TRUST JESUS

I agree with ya Rev about wicked people and the end of the world but you know I am not a believer, I guess if the "Rapture" takes place maybe you can put in a good word with Jesus. I know in the Christian beliefs it don't work that way, but I guess if Jesus comes back I will be up a certain creek without a paddle lol. I do believe that if the Bible is correct then Obama is the Anti-Christ. But you know me brother, I have to have some solid proof that there is a "God". I hope I am right and you are wrong about the whole Jesus and Heaven thing, but if I am not then please keep this sinner in your prayers.

No.Have read about an algae that turns red when it dies and floats to the surface,dominating the surface of the water,giving it the appearance of blood.Also took the prophecies to mind about a third of the waters turning to blood when BP's "Deep-water Horizon" rig started filling the gulf coast with oil.One thing though,,,you don't have to convince me that the world could change drastically and do so rather quickly.It seems that the dum-dums,intellectuals,believe rs,non-believers,religious fools and zealots alike should all be able to see that.Wouldn't do any good if they did I guess.Honestly,I don't believe Saddam Hussein himself displaced more life in his life than BP did in one short fiscal quarter,,,but displacing and destroying the planet is acceptable,,,if it's profitable.With a species like that in charge of a fragile planet,,,it's surprises me that it's lasted this long.Thread I was gonna add this to disappeared just after I cut this.....Don't guess it will hurt anything to paste it here will it???

#20 Nov 30, 2012
the bible doesnt say it will turn to blood, but just ''like blood of a dead man'' meaning it will not support life. God has set earth up to work certain ways, the ancients couldnt explain the science behind it, we can now, but it changes nothing.

Actor Bongani Masondo has parted ways with SABC1 soapie Skeem Saam..
Edward Tsumele
Lesego Motsepe, the actress Isidingo fans have known as Lettie Matabane for the past 10 years, says she is looking forward to a bright life after the soapie.
The actress is even looking forward to watching her on-screen funeral on Tuesday.
"The funeral does not scare me at all because I understand the funeral is for the character that I play and has nothing to do with Lesego Motsepe in real life," she giggled.
The actress says she does not feel any bitterness because she understands that after 10 years the role of Lettie Matabane had to come to an end.
"I will miss the things the scriptwriters made her say, especially since Lettie Matabane was so different from who I am," Motsepe said.
"Those who will miss me can now watch me in other productions in industrial theatre, straight theatre and poetry."
Viewers of SABC3's flagship soapie, Isidingo, will on Tuesday witness the on-screen funeral of Lettie Matabane, who died in a car accident last Friday.
Sowetan today exclusively publishes the pictures of the funeral you will see on Tuesday.
The accident, which happened while Lettie Matabane was on the phone talking to Vusi about his infidelity, has left fans of the character in shock - demonstrating the influence the soap opera world has over our lives.
She was knocked down by Paul (Carl Beukes).
According to the scriptwriters, Matabane's mother Agnes (Keketso Semoko) will get to hear rumours that Vusi had planned to have a child with Siyanda (S'thandiwe Koroge).
Well, this is not true because that was not the case. This message is in a saved cellphone SMS to be revealed after the funeral.

Okay, I am entering another book challenge. The way I look at it is this, I'm going to be reading the books anyway, I might as well get some sort of extra satisfaction by scratching them off of a specific list. I've said it before and I'll say it again, I love lists. There are few things more satisfying to me than scratching something off a list. Sometimes even if I've all ready completed something, I write it on my list, just so that I can immediately scratch it out. If you look over at the left sidebar, you'll see the notable books challenge. See the scratched off book? Imagine my glee when I learned out to scratch out words on the computer.
So, anyway this new challenge is the Chunkster Challenge. A chunkster is any book over 450 pages. All you have to do for this challenge is read 4 of them. The beauty of this is that 2 of my notable books will also fit the bill for this challenge. That means when I finish them, I will be able to scratch them off of two lists. Oh, the joy.
My list:
Tree of Smoke: A Novel by Dennis Johnson
Bridge of Sighs by Richard Russo
Vanity Fair (Penguin Classics)by William Thackery

Catalyzed Epoxy???
Had to do some touch up(read repaint) on some door frames at work. They handed me a can of Sherwin Williams Industrial and Marine Enamel, Catalyzed Epoxy Part A.
What the hey, never heard of it but it brushes and levels beatifully, cleans up with water and is dry to the touch in about 30 minutes. Hard, glossy shine... What's not to like?
I'm in the midst of repainting my kitchen cabinets.. will likely do the bath next... and have just switched to ProCoat. Matter of fact, I repainted what I had done with Rustoleum painters touch to get the ProCoat finish.
Now I'm wondering if I shouldn't just find a good stopping point and finish it up with the epoxy or is there some reason I haven't heard about it in here or in other forums.:huh:
John, you're not hanging around in the right forums. That's an industrial coating. I doubt it would be a standard shelf item in many SW stores, unless they were central to an area where a lot of industrial/marine activity occurs. Most likely would have to be ordered. I don't see why you couldn't use it on your kitchen cabinets. But, it may not be the best around food stuffs, I would look into that first. There are those that would be safe though and be comparable. I'm curious though, the can says Part A, what happened to Part B? Having "part A" in the name would indicate a two part system, the coating and the curing agent/hardener.
BTW, it's not impossible that what it says on the label is not what's in the can. Quite a few times I come across situations where people use an empty can to work out of and just throw a lid on it, put it on the shelf. Something doesn't sound right there. If that was mixed five years ago, a little dab of water wouldn't do ya. Trivia question, What product did that little modified jingle sell at one time?
Good Job ltd:thumbup:
I think I remember that... havin hair I mean:laughing:
I dunno joe - I got some 12 or 15 year old Moorgard in the basement I broke out last summer and just mixed it up. Only thing about it was I treated it with Floetrol for spraying when I first got it.
Use to be able to say "Grass doesn't grow on a busy street", which worked until someone realized it doesn't grow on a bowling ball either. :laughing:
Easy for me to say. :laughing:
1 Attachment(s)
Finally occurred to me just to take a picture of the can and see if anyone recognizes it.:jester:
Hey, can I jump in here and ask a question off the main subject? I noticed that one of you said to add 1/4" of solvent, thinner, or water to paint if you are going to store it long term.... I have a lot of paint that I'm storing long-term. I've had some interior gallons of paints stored in my laundry room, some for 6 months, some as long as 2 years. I've opened them and stirred them and they still seem to be GOOD. Is it too late to add the solvent or thinner to THESE cans? I understand that the idea is to make sure it doesn't mix in with the paint when you add it but what about when you are ready to use the paint? Do you mix it in then? Or do you have to try to scoop it off? Probably sounds like a dumb question and if so I'm sorry.... I'm just a single woman here trying to learn this DIY stuff!
You will generally get more and better responses starting a seperate thread for a topic not related to the thread though. Might ask a mod to move this though as I can see it becoming pretty involved:)

Daniel Redman Wins The 5th O'Neill Deep Blue Open
South Africa's Daniel Redman today won the 5th O'Neill Deep Blue Open, prime 6-star, WQS surf event in the Maldives.
Surfing in his first ever WQS final, the 21-year old from Durban fought his way up from the very first round of the competition, brushing the likes of Timmy Reyes (USA) and Greg Emslie (ZAF) aside, before finally defeating Australia's Luke Hitchings in the final. The win earns Redman 2750 WQS tour points, a $US15,000 prize cheque, and moves him to 4th position on the WQS tour ratings. Luke Hitchings was forced to settle for 2nd place with Brazil's Adriano de Souza and South African Greg Emslie taking joint 3rd.
Today's competition returned to the break of Lohis and kicked off midmorning with the quarterfinals in pumping 4 – 6ft waves. As the sets reeled off of the reef, the crowds on the deck, in front of the Lohis break, swelled until it was 'standing room only' for the final Deep Blue Open showdown. Luke Hitchings, celebrating his birthday today, was looking to add the icing on the cake with a win at the contest, but Daniel Redman made it clear early on that he wouldn't be giving him any gifts in the 35 minute final
Redman drew the first blood, taking off on an early set wave, but didn't inflict serious damage until his second wave, locking in a 7.5 ride to leave Hitchings trailing. Hitchings, as always, remained a serious threat throughout, but was struggling to find the high scoring rides. Despite banking a 7.5, Hitchings continually found himself out of position for the bigger sets. Redman, on the other hand, patiently played the waiting game and Hitchings could only watch as, in the closing moments of the final, Redman pulled into the biggest set of the day and drove hard off the bottom to unleash 5 huge snaps under the lip, a screaming floater followed by a searing layback re-entry. The wave earned Redman a 9.{{{90}}} score, the biggest individual wave score of this years contest, and put an end to Hitchings designs on the title.
Exiting the water, Redman was hoisted out of the water by his South African supporters and carried to the Lohis bar to receive a rapturous applause and his customary champagne shower.
"I'm shocked, I can't believe it." Started Redman, holding a press conference sitting on top of his fellow countrymen's shoulders. " I'm so stoked that I'm lost for words. I waited a long time for that last wave and that sealed it for me. I thought to myself, I'm not going to go on anything that isn't going to give me a big score and luckily that last wave was exactly what I was looking for. It held up and was so perfect that it gave me that 9.9. It's my first WQS final so hopefully I can hold it together for the rest of the year. I'd like to dedicate this to all the boys from South Africa and my parents." He added.
Luke Hitchings didn't scoop the birthday present he had hoped for and despite charging his way through the competition, the regular foot powerhouse from Bronte, Australia was reluctantly forced to settle for second place spot.
"It was totally my fault out there." Began a somber Hitchings. "I wasn't patient enough and I didn't wait for the sets. Daniel did so congrats to him. Job well done." He added.
Hitchings, a former member of the WCT, wasn't the only experienced charger to fall to Redman, as earlier in the day WCT veteran Greg Emslie from East London, South Africa also had his sensational Deep Blue Open run ended by the events eventual victor. In the first semi final against Redman, Emslie struggled to find the longer connecting rides and at the end of the 30-minute heat was forced to settle for joint third, banking 2008 tour points and a US$3,750 prize cheque.
"I'm obviously a little bit upset." Began Emslie. " I've had a pretty good run out there and I've been surfing really well but things just didn't go my way. I just didn't manage to get the good waves. The waves I did get just closed out on me so it basically came down to bad wave selection. I just kept on getting hung up on Lohis corner and just couldn't make it around the section. Dan had the better heat, he surfed his waves all the way through, my waves were just a little bit too short. I'm stoked for Dan, he's done really well but at the same time I'm a bit bummed I lost. That was the worst heat I've had all contest, I'm just really disappointed." He added.
No one could wipe the smile off of the face of the youngest competitor in the contest, 18-year old Adriano de Souza from Sao Paulo, Brazil. In one of the most impressive runs the event has ever witnessed, the Brazilian wonder-kid's amazing charge was finally halted in semifinal number 2 by Luke Hitchings. In a 30-minute bout which pitched experience against youth, experience eventually prevailed with Souza settling for joint third place, 2008 WQS tour points and a $US 3,750 prize cheque.
"I'm so stoked to have got this far, I would have liked to get to the final but hey, the semis is a really good result for me, I'm happy with that." Began Adriano. "Luke was surfing really well out there, it could have gone either way because the waves are so good today but he got the better scores in the end so good luck to him for the final. I'm was just feeling really good, surfing really well and my board was working so really well too until I broke it. But it's been a really good competition for me and one I'll remember for a long time." He added.
Against the odds, The 5th O'Neill Deep Blue Open turned into another classic event. The small crumbly, wind swept waves at the start of the week made way for some of the largest conditions and highest performance surfing ever witnessed at the event. A reoccurring theme of this years contest was experience versus youth and on this occasion youth won, with 21-year old Daniel Redman, the youngest surfer ever to win the O'Neill Deep Blue Open, snatching the title from under the nose of Luke Hitchings. Next year it might be a different story, until then goodbye from everyone at the O'Neill Deep Blue Open.
O'Neill Europe would like to send special thanks to all those who made the 5th O'Neill Deep Blue Open another successful event especially the Maldivian Surfing Association, the Maldivian Tourist Board, ASP Australasia, Lohifushi Island Resort, Matt Wilson, Dave Mailman, all the surfers, the media and of course the Maldivian people.

55 chevy 4 door small block swap?
hi guys,
i just picked up this 55 chevy 4 door for a donor car for my 2 dr project after looking around at how clean this thing is i decided to just keep it together and use it as a driver. for cosmetics i covered it in black primer and slapped some 17s on it. mechanically, after replacing the waterpump, pressureplate and clutch and repairing the radiator i am still very unhappy with the way this thing runs.
anyways, i have a goodwrench create 350 and rebuilt turbo 350 tranny sitting in the garage that i'd like to put into it but am unsure as to how to approach this.
the car has the oringal blue flame 235 inline 6 and three speed manual on the column. i already ordered the mounts from danchuck and fenderwellheaders from summit. but i am afraid of having to replace column and having driveshaft issues (too short, too long etc). does anyone have experience with this swap and can offer suggestions? will the 350 fit infront of the factory transmission? will i need new bellhousing, if so of of what? will the three speed be ok behind a 325hp small block? please help
thanks john

Two semis crash after one hits Virginia Street bridge and loses load
Lanes of I-65 were closed early Sunday morning after two semis crashed because one of them lost its load when it attempted to go under the Virginia Street bridge.
Indiana State Police say the machinery fell off the flatbed of the semi-trailer because it was too tall to go under the bridge.
Another semi that was following close behind, then hit the machinery in the road.
Police say both truck drivers did stop after the accident and were cooperating with the investigation.
Officials say they believe the driver that lost the load did not have the proper license to drive a semi.
At least 2 lanes of I-65 were closed for about 2 hours while the crash was cleaned up.

To a minimum you need to configure Unsecure URL for the plugin to do anything useful. This URL has to start with http:// and should host an environment that mirrors your normal Joomla! environment. For instance, if your Joomla! template-images are located here:

Other options allow you to determine which resources should be moved to the static server:
When loading CSS files from the static server, note that you also might need to copy the neccessary image-files. Because the CSS-files will be served from the same directory-structure as within Joomla!, relative path-links will still work.

Poison Ivy
Though people think of poison ivy—that scourge of gardeners and campers—as a summertime menace, you can be exposed to the three-leaved plant at any time of year wherever it grows.
The best way to prevent the irritating red rash that results when the skin comes in contact with the oils of the plant: Know how to identify and avoid it. Teach kids the mnemonic "Leaves of three, let them be," and follow that advice yourself. If you know you will be in a spot that is likely to have poison ivy—which is more usual in rural areas and thrives in warmer climates—wear long, heavy clothing and closed-toe shoes (yes, even in the summer) to protect your skin from the plant's oils. Remember that the oils can also linger on clothing—and pets, tools, and other objects—causing indirect contact that may lead to a rash, says Larry Millikan, a dermatologist based in New Orleans. Clothing that may be contaminated should be washed thoroughly, and pets should be shampooed immediately. Use rubbing alcohol to clean other surfaces and objects.
If you do develop a rash, it should subside in two to four weeks. In the meantime, relieve discomfort caused by itching and swelling by rinsing the area with soapy water and using over-the-counter products like calamine lotion and Benadryl or another antihistamine. If blisters develop or the discomfort of the rash is interfering with your day-to-day activities, your dermatologist can give you cortisone cream or injections and prescribe medication.

Table alignment
I have a triangular-shaped table
1.234 2.567 3.146
2.43 3.489
that I want to have printed in this fashion, with everything neatly
aligned. TableForm and MatrixForm both print out the table, in a
triangular shape, but for some reason the columns further to the right
(there are 20 columns in the longest row) do not line up correctly,
but snake. I think this is due to some of the numbers in one row
being of different lengths (like the 2.43 above) but I thought
TableForm would take that into account. Is there a way I can fix
TableForm so it won't fudge on me, or, alternatively, is there a way
to make Mathematica print out the extra 0's at the end of real numbers
so I can fill out the table myself? Thanks.

Alabama's crystal national title trophy shattered in accident
TUSCALOOSA, Ala. – Alabama loved its crystal football to pieces.
By Saturday night, that's all that remained of the Crimson Tide's glittering reward for winning the last BCS national championship.
The AFCA Coaches Trophy met its early demise following Saturday's A-Day Game at a team function. Only shards of Waterford Crystal remained by Monday evening. Valued at $30,000, the now-iconic award was first presented in 1986.
A university spokesperson says the father of a current player accidentally toppled the trophy when he stumbled on a rug that was under the trophy display. The Tuscaloosa News reports that officials aren't releasing the name of the man.
USA TODAY Sports on Twitter!
To get the latest sports news from USA TODAY, including game results, columns and features, follow us on Twitter at @USATODAYSports.
This wasn't, however, the first time such a mishap required a broom and dust pan.
Florida's 2006 crystal football was famously fumbled, or knocked from its pedestal, by a recruit. The culprit, Orson Charles, ended up playing for archrival Georgia.
Alabama is still exploring options to replace its version, but if the case ends like Florida's, someone will be forking over some cash. The Gators reportedly had to pay $4,000 toward replacing the sparkling ball that was insured for $8,000.
Florida State also lost two of its Waterford footballs, but without the violent crash and a happier ending. The Seminoles 1993 and '99 trophies were stolen in 2004. A reward was offered, but the heist wasn't solved without arrests more than a year later.
Despite its sometimes troubled history, the AFCA has strict rules regarding the use and handling of the fragile hardware. A four-page instruction sheet spells out the guidelines.
"The trophy may not be shown to be broken or shattered, even in simulation," reads Page 2. "The crystal ball may not be shown being dropped, thrown in the air or rolled on the ground."
Alabama's fallen trophy had a busy, but short lifespan. A statewide tour allowed fans to pose with pictures at various retail outlets. The football was displayed up until Saturday morning when fans grabbed a few final photos before the A-Day Game.

Fighting continues in Syria, hundreds get shot or wounded, bombers blast away from up on high while artillery blasts away from the ground. Yesterday, rebels shot down a MiG-23 plane, and felt a sense of victory. Lost in this seemingly endless fighting is ongoing destruction of history. Syria was for centuries a key place in Middle Eastern warfare. Alexander the Great conquered the city 0f Aleppo as did the Crusaders and Genghis Khan. Saladin planned his battles from a castle in this city. The history of centuries is in this town, but war and devastation do not care about the past. For President Bashar al-Assad, the only date in his mind is today because he knows that tomorrow only brings the end of his brief tenure as head of Syria.
Muslims should be up in arms at destruction of their heritage. One is struck by lack of concern, by lack of demonstrations protesting wiping out the history of Muslim people. Silence reigns.
Now, if someone printed a cartoon, then the crowds would pour through the streets of major Islamic cities. We feel sorrow at what is being lost –forever– for those of the Muslim faith.

Similar to the previous lot, Dronino is an ungrouped iron meteorite. There is no meteorite that is chemically similar to Dronino, which implies it originated from a previously unknown parent asteroid. This is an unusual specimen as it regards its geometric simplicity. Earth's elements interacted with the meteorite for more than 1000 years, resulting in this minimalist form of two distinct richly textured slopes.

The Cutting Room (original 2002; edition 2003)
by Louise Welsh
Work details
The Cutting Room by Louise Welsh (2002)
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Well written, true to Glasgow in places and (some) people but a bit close to the bone for me in description of sexual activities and pornography.
Really liked this, convincingly gritty and seedy and intriguing, and with wonderful language throughout...
"He turns to a woman sitting beside him. Right now she is not drunk enough to go home with him, Steve waits. He has the patience of a sinner."
I didn't really get Rose as a character.
The Cutting Room by Louise Welsh - Very Good
What an astounding first novel this is! I've been a fan of Louise Welsh for some time but seem to be reading her books in all the wrong order and as such have just read this one - her first novel.
With some authors that have written a number of books and have a great reputation, when you read their first, it's a struggle and you have to read a few before they hit their stride. Not so with this one. No wonder it won so many plaudits.
Rilke is an auctioneer in Glasgow. He's called upon to clear a house after a bereavement. It's full of treasures, wonderful antiques, but also, there is a dark side: the items in the owners private study. These so intrigue Rilke that he is drawn into trying to find out if there really was a murder committed many years before and if so, who committed the murder and who is the victim.
The author takes us through both the posh and seedy sides of Glasgow and her turn of phrase and use of language is wonderfully evocative. I highly recommend this book if you've not already read it!
Listed in the Scottish 100
Bloody ending, for this 1 star more than the book deserved.
A complicated storyline, going back to the first CJ-Book: [b:Retribution|90334|Retribution (C.J. Townsend #1)|Jilliane Hoffman|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1375371701s/90334.jpg|1469352], I wrote a review/comment a few days ago there.
The other book helps in understanding what happens here, but is not totally necessary.
As with the first book I was disturbed not by the gruesome murders, torture and other things, but by law enforcement, cops, lawyers and judges twisting the law and creating crime scenes or changing them.
Also, as most is told again, for those, who like me have read [b:Retribution|90334|Retribution (C.J. Townsend #1)|Jilliane Hoffman|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1375371701s/90334.jpg|1469352], it dragged at times, there was a lot of flashbacks and internal thinking of the main characters which did not advance the story for me nor heighten the suspense.
The vigilante-actions where not criticized and even the actions within the law where sometimes highly questionable, although all of this is more realistic than I like it to be, these things do happen, and like the death-sentence something I strongly object. At least in the book it shown that these kind of deals is morally questionable. The goal was not achieved, so in the end most is lost, and some lost their live.
While in the beginning most characters from law enforcement seem to be on the good side, in the end, there are only bad ones and worse ones - and some serial killers, which always have my sympathy.
With C J being the main character of a few books, and me having only read 2 so far, the already mentioned Retribution and this one, skipping the other with CJ, I did not like her in the first book and still do not like her, and I think, in the end that the loser-cop Manny is the only one who has done nothing wrong.
The main reason, why I bought this book was also a let down: I read the blurb about the club and hoped there would be a lot more about the case being technical and the investigation not about the (boring) people, but about the internet, proxies, VPN etc. the stuff we all work with every day to muddy our tracks from surveillance by the GCHQ and NSA. Also the club-site of hiding their tracks was not explained.
OK, that maybe hard for a non-technical-person to write, but there are only few books which are not in the SF-genre writing about this.
For Fans of vigilantism, self-justice and the death-panalty. Else (and for me) not recommended. And recognize that I give 1 star for the audacity of the ending, which is difficult to review without spoiling the story.
A auctioneer is hired to dispose of the belongings of a recently deceased gentlemen. While clearing out the attic he discovers a stash of pornographic pictures. This leads him and the reader on a trip through the dark side of pornography. An interesting read although the book borders on homosexual erotica.

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 184195280X, Paperback)The Cutting Room heralds the arrival of an outstanding, contemporary Glasgow novel. Its charismatic protagonist, Rilke, is eccentric, witty and frequently outrageous. An auctioneer by profession, he is an acknowledged expert in antiques but also considers himself something of an expert in many other fields. When Rilke comes upon a hidden collection of disturbing erotic photographs, he feels compelled to unearth more about the deceased owner who coveted them. What follows is a compulsive journey of discovery, decadence and deviousness, steered in part by Rilke's gay promiscuity and inquisitive nature. Louise Welsh's writing is stylish and captivating; she combines aspects of a detective story with shades of the gothic in a colourful Glasgow ranging from the genteel suburbs to a transvestite club, an auction house to the bookies and pubs to porn shops. The result is a page-turning and deliciously original debut.
