Lenox slows consideration of tax breaks for hotel projects
LENOX >> Following heated discussion in town on policy guidelines for potential tax breaks to hotel developers and other new business owners, the Select Board has moved the issue to the middle burner for further study.
The result is that voters at the May 5 annual town meeting won't be considering a proposal from the Toole Lodging Group for a special tax agreement covering its 92-room, $8.3 million Courtyard by Marriott project under construction at Brushwood Farms.
Likewise, a citizens petition from the Mahida Hospitality Group for a similar deal to benefit its plan to demolish the Magnuson Hotel and replace it with a branded Lenox Manor 100-suite hotel and events center is likely to be shelved from the town meeting warrant.
During their third extended discussion on a set of policies to handle applications for tax incentives, the Selectmen on Wednesday night reviewed revisions suggested by the Board of Assessors and presented by Town Planner/Land Use Director Gwen Miller.
But Select Board Chairman Edward Lane suggested further study is needed by the town's Planning Board, Finance Committee and the Zoning Board of Appeals, "at least to get their input and see how they feel about things. We'd be getting a general opinion from a lot of good people that we trust."
"That makes a great deal of sense," said Selectman Warren Archey. "It will help ensure that we're all on board together. I hate to think we're going to be rushed on this, it's got to be done right."
"We want this to be as perfect as we can make it," Lane said. "I feel we have a ways to go. I know it will take some time."
Selectman David Roche agreed but cautioned that he doesn't want the policy to be "sent to some subcommittee to die."
"We'll put a time limit on it," Miller said.
"We do have an application before us," Selectman Channing Gibson pointed out, referring to the Toole proposal for a 10-year, $835,000 property tax deferment.
If the Select Board decides to approve it once the policy guidelines are in place, Gibson noted, a special town meeting would be needed for a decision by voters, probably in the fall.
"I just want to make sure the applicant is treated fairly," he said.
"We shouldn't prejudice that applicant," Lane responded, "but we have to get it right."
"I don't want to see this dragged out any longer than it has been," declared Selectman Kenneth Fowler. "I'd like to see us come to a decision on this policy."
But his suggestion that other town boards could weigh in within two weeks met with skepticism.
"That's exactly why I don't want to rush it," Lane said. "There has to be some breathing room for these people that are going to read this over and give us their opinion."
Town Manager Christopher Ketchen reminded board members that the policy is "your framework for how one would achieve an endorsement from this board," but specific applications such as those from Toole and Mahida require an up or down decision by voters at a town meeting.
He urged townspeople to "speak up, speak clearly and provide some hopeful, constructive feedback," Ketchen said. "We want to take a long hard look at it, but the definition of that shouldn't be construed as forever. At some point, a decision has to be made."
The work-in-progress policy presented by Miller now recommends creation of a special review committee to examine specific applications for special tax agreements. Members would represent the Board of Assessors, the Finance Committee and the Planning Board.
An outside consultant may be called in for advice on highly technical documents "to make sure we're getting an accurate and clear picture from the information that is provided," Miller said.
Applicants also will need to provide specific, detailed financial information about the projects, a requirement recommended by the Board of Assessors.
Another detail to be resolved involves the start date for any multiyear tax relief agreement, depending on the buildout time for a project and a certificate of occupancy approval.
Specific areas of town could be prioritized for appropriate uses and goals, such as the Lenox Dale industrial zone, the Route 7 and 20 commercial strip, the downtown village business district, as well as existing resort, cultural and estate areas as magnets for visitors and job creators.
A minimal level of investment required for businesses seeking a tax break is still a moving target as the policy undergoes further modification.
The number of jobs that would created by a developer remains a crucial factor when considering property tax relief, as applicants would be scored on a point system depending on employment creation. Projects that create additional tax benefits for the town, such as lodging revenue, could gain extra points.
Selectman Roche urged a deadline for deciding on any application once a policy is in place so developers know when to expect a decision after they submit all necessary information. He suggested 30 or 40 days.
He also proposed that applicants get extra points if their projects can be completed in one or two years, rather than a longer time period.

The name Olympus is well heard of in the imaging world when it comes to high end and durable imaging devices. This Japanese camera manufacturer has come up with many different models over the years and is a favourite with professionals and budding photographers alike.
The company has just come up with a new addition to their compact camera segment. The camera is termed as Olympus SZ-31 MR. This is a new and improved version of the existing model SZ-30 MR. The devices share a lot of common features with certain tweaks and improvements in the latter.
Features and specifications of Olympus SZ-31 MR:
- 16 megapixel back lit CMOS sensor
- 24x optical zoom (25-600 mm)
- TruePic V image processor
- Integrated 3 inch LCD screen (9,20,000)
- Video recording at 1080p and speed of 30 frames per second
- iHS technology
- Internal flash
- Manual and auto focus
- Rechargeable Li-ion battery
The CMOS image sensor in the camera is of back lit type and has an effective resolution of 16 megapixels. The lens has 24x or 25-600 mm zooming capability. This zoom range is very impressive for such a compact sized camera. These features are same as the older SZ-30 MR model. The major bump is provided in terms of image processor. SZ-31 MR has TruePic V image processor rather than the TruePic III in the older model.
There is a 3 inch LCD screen on the rear side that packs in 9, 20,000 dots resolution. The camera can record videos with 1080p or 1920 x 1080 pixel clarity and that too at a sufficiently high speed. The device is provided with iHS (Intelligent, High sensitivity and High speed) technology and also image stabilization features. This helps the user to take very sharp and vivid images. Image stabilization ensures that small shakes and vibrations won't hinder the quality of the image taken.
Olympus SZ-31 MR comes with a price tag of about Rs.20,000/-. This camera will hit the stores by the month of April. It may be available for pre order via online stores a bit earlier though.

There was a live-action series for Marimite? Wow.. that's new to me. I wonder who did they find for Sachiko. I'll probably watch it if it's someone that looks like.. Nanako Matsushima, because she's pretty good in Sachiko-type of character. But I reckon that's unlikely, lol.

Santa Cruz de Tenerife, April 2017.- The Hotel Bahía del Duque (www.bahia-duque.com), company owned by Compañía de las Islas Occidentales (CIO) (www.cio-company.com), has renewed its Travelife Gold certification, after successfully passing the rigorous audit, which this international sustainability certification system carries out in companies of the tourism sector interested in being a part of the Travelife Collection.
Launched in 2007, the Travelife Sustainability System is a practical tool for tourism establishments, helping supervise and manage its impact in the area of sustainability. Travelife auditors visit the hotels and conduct an exhaustive analysis where they evaluate different aspects, such as company policies (quality assurance, environment, health and safety…); legislation; communication; human resources; the environment (energy, water, light, waste); protection of the establishments' surroundings, human rights; and engagement with the local community.
"Quality awards like Travelife Gold act as a guarantee for our guests, they certify that the Bahía del Duque is an establishment that respects people, the environment and the cultural aspects that surround it", states Mónica Rumeu, Director of Sustainability of CIO.
One of the valued aspects by Travelife auditors in granting Bahía del Duque the renewal of the certification, was its support of various NGO's and Associations, and the transmission of the traditional values of Canarian culture, reflected in the hotels architecture, gastronomy, hospitality and the staff uniforms.
They have also taken into account the company's Human Resource policy based on transparency and the promotion of diversity in the workplace as a guarantee against social exclusion. In regards to the protection of the environment, the Hotel has implemented strategies to minimize the use of water and energy, thus creating a more sustainable management and with a smaller impact, on the environment.

Biochemistry and physiology
The moss
Our results show that PpAOS1 is highly active with both C18 and C20-hydroperoxy-fatty acid substrates, whereas PpAOS2 is fully active only with C20-substrates, exhibiting trace activity (~1000-fold lower kcat/KM) with C18 substrates. Analysis of products of PpAOS1 and PpHPL further demonstrated that both enzymes have an inherent side activity mirroring the close inter-connection of AOS and HPL catalysis. By employing site directed mutagenesis we provide evidence that single amino acid residues in the active site are also determining the catalytic activity of a 9-/13-AOS – a finding that previously has only been reported for substrate specific 13-AOS. However, PpHPL cannot be converted into an AOS by exchanging the same determinant. Localization studies using YFP-labeled AOS showed that PpAOS2 is localized in the plastid while PpAOS1 may be found in the cytosol. Analysis of the wound-induced

Note that different fractions of final elution employing a linear gradient with increasing imidazol concentration are shown in (B) and (C). In case of PpAOS2-purification we applied an additional washing step, in which we washed the column with 50 mM sodium phosphate buffer (pH 8.0) containing 50 mM NaCl, 500 mM urea and 15 mM imidazol in order to further elute unspecifically bound proteins as shown in (B).
Throughout all preparations, buffers showed a reddish color which suggested the presence of a heme co-factor. Indeed, when UV/vis spectra of PpAOS1, PpAOS2 and PpHPL were recorded, in every case an absorption profile that is characteristic for heme proteins was detectable: While the UV/vis spectra showed distinctive heme absorption maxima at 415 nm (Soret-band), 535 nm (β-band) for PpAOS1 and 411nm (Soret-band) and 529 nm (β-band) for PpAOS2 (Figure

Supermarket NONFOODS Business: What's in a name?
It could be higher profits and a competitive advantage, if a supermarket is putting its own moniker on over-the-counter products.
With overall sales on the rise and an increasing number of mass merchandisers and club stores selling national brand over-the-counter medications at lower prices, grocers are finding that boosting private label OTC products is the best way to compete in the category.
"If you are a supermarket and are going to have an OTC program using national brands, and you cannot be cost-competitive with the mass merchandisers, then what in the world are you doing it for?" asks Brian Sharoff, president of the Private Label Manufacturers Association in New York City.
It wasn't always this way. Supermarkets initially went with national brand OTC products to create the one-stop-shopping concept. "This was very important in the 1970s and 1980s," says Sharoff. "Supermarkets were using OTC as a convenience to customers, but they were not the reason people went to the supermarket. It was food, and food got primary attention in advertisements and circulars."
Profit generator
In the late Eighties and early Nineties, grocers began realizing that OTC could be an important profit generator if private label was used as a merchandising tool. During that time, some grocers began creating solid private label alternatives in the major OTC categories.
The growth of mass merchandisers and supercenters stepped up the private label offerings at many grocery chains that could not compete with the lower prices of the discounters. Indeed, any grocers that do not have a private label program running today have consciously decided against one, says Sharoff. "If there is a supermarket chain that does not have a private label OTC program, it is because they do not want it; it is a corporate decision."
Running such a program is one thing. Getting the most out of it in terms of profitability is a completely different story. To optimize a private label OTC program, promotion is the most crucial element, says Sharoff. "You can make it a crucial part of your store brand message, which starts at the center store and works its way through peripheral food departments and then housewares, household goods, and OTC. And that message would be similarity of graphics, shelf presentation, and it would include promotion in various advertising vehicles."
The other way is to categorize and departmentalize the OTC message so that the name in the OTC department is different from the name in the food department. "What is important is that whichever way the grocer decides, they promote the private label extensively, so that the consumer has an opportunity to make the purchase, see that the ingredients are the same, like the product, and buy it again," says Sharoff.
Ukrop's Super Markets, Inc., based in Richmond, Va., implemented its Brand Bonanza program to support its own brand products and reward customers for purchasing them. During the six-week program, which ran from April 1 through May 11, whenever a customer purchased a Ukrop's brand item (Ukrop's, Pet Club, Top Care, Top Crest, and Full Circle) and used her loyalty card, she was automatically entered into the Brand Bonanza.
The weekly qualifying household received $200 for each Ukrop's brand item found within the home, up to a $5,000 maximum. Odds of winning depended on the number of times each card was scanned. Customers buying the grocer's Top Care brands—the banner for all of Ukrop's private label health and beauty care products, including OTC—received double points toward the sweepstakes.
"The Brand Bonanza builds excitement around Ukrop's brands and creates awareness of all the savings opportunities available through those brands," says president and c.e.o. Bobby Ukrop. "By sending out the Brand Gang each week for five weeks, we can have some fun while personally thanking our customers for shopping Ukrop's brands."
Visual cues
In addition to promotions around the store brands, packaging is an important aspect of a successful private label OTC program, says Sharoff. "When you get to the nonfoods side, and OTC in particular, there are a lot of visual cues which accompany the product, and when the consumer doesn't see these cues, they think the product is different from its brand equivalent."
One example of this is Pepto-Bismol. The upset-stomach reliever manufactured by Procter & Gamble is known for its pink color, which is easily identifiable through a clear plastic bottle. All private label versions of the product that contain the active ingredient, bismuth subsalicylate, are pink. Private label versions of this product are always pink, usually going by the brand name and the active ingredient, such as Giant Eagle Pink Bismuth. If it were to be sold in another color, say blue or yellow, consumers would think that it serves a different purpose than intended and might pass it up.
For tablets and other non-liquid OTC products, the colors on the boxes or jars, as well as the text printed on them usually resemble their branded equivalents. "It is this type of packaging that helps grab the customer, because if you go to the ingredient statement, it may not necessarily be clear," says Sharoff. "The private label product may use a generic form of the active ingredient used in the national brand, and though they will have the same effect, the customer may not be aware of it. But the visual cues like color and packaging are very identifiable."
Packaging cannot be too similar, however, he warns. "While copycats of a brand may be annoying to the brand manager of the product, in most cases it is within the law. You cannot take a color out of the spectrum and forbid everybody else to use it in their packaging, because there are a finite number of colors in the spectrum," he says. "The crucial test in law is whether or not there is confusion on the part of the customer between the brand and the private label equivalent. If the customer cannot distinguish one from the other, there will be a problem."
Side-by-side positioning
That is why store brands and national brands are usually positioned side by side on the shelves, with the store brand to the right. "Ukrop's positions their Top Care OTC products to the immediate right of the brands—since we read from left to right—at a price point usually 20 percent to 25 percent less," says a spokesman for the grocer. "We want them to compare the two and see for themselves how Top Care brand is a better value."
The conversion of prescription brands to OTC has created new opportunities for grocers in the private label arena. "This makes more products available to the consumer—not necessarily in the same dosage—and therefore adds to the health solutions they can provide to the consumer. These change the nature of what were the traditional brands leading the category," says Sharoff.
The Claritin case
Claritin is a case in point. Leiner Health Products, a manufacturer of private label vitamins and OTC products based in Carson, Calif., secured the marketing rights to the antihistamine Loratadine Immediate Release 10 mg tablets (Claritin 10 mg tablets). Through an exclusive licensing agreement with Genpharm, Inc., an affiliate of Merck KgaA, and Pharmaceutical Resources, Leiner expects to be shipping product to retailers after July 21, when the "first-to-file" company's exclusivity period is exhausted.
The Claritin switch to over the counter was the largest in history, converting more than $2 billion in prescription sales to OTC. The 10 mg tablets, which represent more than 65 percent of Claritin OTC brand sales, are expected to generate a combined $500 million in branded and private label retail sales. Anticipating the large demand for private label programs, Leiner has begun coordinating retailer store brand artwork, inventory and promotional programs.
"When this happens, the brand that was dominating up until that point is suddenly facing competition, as newer products make their way down the pipeline," says Sharoff. "This can strengthen private label offerings, but it also puts more pressure on the shelf space. These are decisions the retailer has to deal with: Which products are going to be dropped as a result of other products coming off prescription and going onto the shelf, particularly as private label?"

In "Old McDonald", Ben Tennyson is trying to fix his bike while Ranger Smith sings the song while playing a banjo, much to the annoyance of Ben. During the song, Ben keeps getting more annoyed as the song continues. When the song ends, Ben runs up to Ranger Smith, telling him that he shouldn't play his "annoying" song while he's trying to fix the bike. Ben then tells Ranger Smith to "go play that song somewhere else".

I moved to Fuquay-Varina several years ago and found a community of friendly, hard working, fun people who cared about their downtown. After joining the Women's Club and Garden Club I decided to offer my help with the Downtown Association and found a group of people with energy and ideas of how to revitalize the historic district in F-V. The outstanding Director and her staff of one(!) do so much for this community. She knows every shopkeeper and works hard to upgrade the look of the downtown along with fun events to bring people to the downtown for shopping and dining. I am impressed with the volunteers who give their time to this non-profit with one goal in mind - to bring businesses and shoppers to a beautiful, historic part of town.
FV Downtown assoc. is a wonderful group! They do so much to beautify and make living in Fuquay Varina a great experience. This little town has a huge support system an is there to make it one of te best little towns in the triangle!
I would describe Fuquay-Varina Downtown Association as a non-profit / volunteer driven organization on steroids! I am constantly amazed at the generosity, the dedication and the commitment the volunteers have made to this organization and the community at large. These talented and tireless individuals accomplish so much in their "spare time." We are a better & stronger and more united Downtown because of their dedicated service.
Fuquay-Varina Downtown is a great non-profit association that makes living, working and playing in
the two downtown districts (Varina district and Fuquay District a five star wonderland. They are always providing the businesses and citizens to get involved in a quality of life that brings life full circle.
J. C. Knowles
As a recent volunteer and transplant to the F-V community I love how Fuquay-Varina Downtown not only gives us great things to do in downtown by sponsoring events and making the public aware of other events that are going on, but also by giving us ways to get involved. Sometimes volunteering can seem overwhelming and people don't know where to start or how to get involved, but Fuquay-Varina Downtown makes it easy to get involved - whether you have 30 minutes or 3 hours to share! It's not only contributing to a great organization, but getting to share in its growth and successes as well.
I recently agreed to volunteer with Fuquay-Varina Downtown because of the inspiring impact this group has on the community. For several years I worked at a job that had a time commitment that didn't allow me to volunteer, but as soon as my schedule changed I jumped at the chance to work with this group. I have lived in other towns where the downtown faded and disappeared as times changed. This organization is committed to keeping downtown Fuquay-Varina alive and well with enthusiasm. They are constantly finding ways to engage the business owners and residents to work together to create a lively, fun downtown. I'm looking forward to being part of it in the years to come.
We moved to Fuquay Varina last spring and quickly became involved with the Downtown Association. The people are an inspiration and are so dedicated to maintaining an active, eclectic, and quaint atmosphere for our two downtown areas. I was especially impressed with the many annual events that the association sponsors which pull in people of all ages from the entire area. A sense of community and care are the mantra all brought about by smiling, welcome faces!
I've been a volunteer with Fuquay-Varina Downtown since 2006 and continue to be thrilled with the impact the group has on the community. The tireless volunteers, the dedicated Board of Directors and the awesome Executive Director make each event special and every project successful. The commitment to the downtown merchants and property owners is wonderful. Each donation is appreciated and stretched as far as possible without compromising quality. If you're looking for a non-profit to support, you can't go wrong with Fuquay-Varina Downtown.
Fuquay-Varina Downtown has been an amazing help to our new business! In the few short months we have been open, we have had overwhelming support from this organization! From their frequent visits, Facebook updates, emails, newsletters, and events, they have really made us feel welcome and a part of the community. We couldn't ask for a better place to put our store. Fuquay-Varina is the best little town in North Carolina, and F-V Downtown is keeping everything amazing! We're excited for 2013 and all the growth it will bring to the area. So many new businesses are moving in and the town is looking great!
Thanks for all the help and support!
Mutt & Tabby
Fuquay-Varina Downtown is a blessing to our community in so many ways. I've been constantly impressed by the organization and management of the many events throughout the year that are made possible because of FVD. As a volunteer and vendor I've seen many facets of the organization and all are as much of a pleasure to work with from a business standpoint as they are to experience from the public viewpoint. It isn't easy to stay optimistic and excited about a small downtown in the midst of economic woes, big boxes, and the online age. The folks at FVD are always optimistic, creative, and perhaps most importantly - willing. Willing to work hard. Willing to innovate. Willing to listen. I couldn't ask for a better organization for our community here in Fuquay-Varina's downtown.

Oh, my heart! This was so sad but absolutely beautiful. You captured that tenderness, that vulnerability in Spike so very well. The writing was lyrical and flowed so naturally. Well done, really. I can't wait to read more of your work!
| dzio chapter 1 . 4/14/2010
You know, yours are the first REALLY good BtVS fics I've seen on this site. And I've been looking for a while.
I like that you see a human and a vampire they become as one person - greatly changed, but basically the same person. A vampire may not have a soul or conscience, but they still have free will and they have the human's memories. As far as we know, the demon that takes place of the soul doesn't exist before that in any form, doesn't bring its own memories and values and stuff. It's created the moment the human is turned, out of the darkest and ugliest parts of what they were - that's how I see it. So I'm not buying that whole "two separate beings" crap. In BtVS vampires have exactly the same ability to make choices as humans have - that's what makes most of them evil. Otherwise they would be just like predatory animals - we don't see a tiger as evil just because it kills to eat, that's what tigers do and the whole good vs. evil distinction doesn't apply. In my opinion this ability to choose makes any vampire's attempt to do something right much more significant. Like Harmony said on "Angel" - they don't have souls, so they have to try that much harder. In the end it's exactly like you wrote in FtTP - if Spike wants to find a way to get his soul back, it means he doesn't really need it.
Huh. I guess you can see from that rant that I don't have anyone around to discuss this stuff with. Or I really need to go and write a BtVS fic myself. ;) Or possibly both.
Anyway, back to the review. I can't find a single thing to complain about in your stories. Characterisation is perfect (I wasn't really sure about Buffy's wallflower act in FtTP at first but you convinced me), your ideas are great (if not exactly original, but hey, there's nothing wrong with offering your own take on a classic like time-travel), you're equally good at dialogue and at descriptions, details are amazing (though I know very little about Victorian England, so I have no way of knowing if they are actually right) and above all, there's real emotion behind it all. Both this fic and parts of Forward to Time Past made me tear up a little. And there is plot! Real, complicated, detailed plot that makes sense and makes you want to see what's going to happen next! From what I've seen that's a rarity in BtVS fics. ;)
Thank you so much for your work. :)
Oh, and I really wish you had some stories in your Favorites, I suppose that would make finding more gems in this sea of crap a bit easier. ;)
| yoyoente chapter 1 . 3/31/2010
*swallows hard* I really prefer this version over what really happened. It would have been especially heart-wrenching after she died. Imagine that, Spike having her, just a taste, knowing and expecting that he wouldn't get anymore, but hoping none-the-less. And then she was gone, a puff of air on a hot day, teasing and refreshing, but ultimately leaving things more unbearable than if it had never come before.

"Treat for acute bacterial tonsillitis"
About: Barnet General Hospital Barnet General Hospital EN5 3DJ
Posted by Elpida Gailani
I came to Barnet hospital via ambulance after collapsing at home with high fever. From the moment I was bought into A&E I was seen within 10 mins and escorted to a bed whereby I was placed under a drip and given antibiotics. The staff were friendly and worked very well handing over to one another - even sharing personal information such as family at home and kids that would make it more pleasant - rather just being another number on a chart. I was moved up to the day surgery unit and I can honestly say there are some very lovely staff on this unit working their socks off to provide ops service even when other functions may let it down. On my final day the kitchen staff where incredibly slow to answering to basics like fresh water but the nurse on ward was happy to get it for me. A very special thanks to three members of staff. You guys make all the difference and it's noticed so keep it up!

Cher Twitter Death
January 27, 2012 by staff
Cher Twitter Death, Cher is not dead, folks, but merely the victim of the latest Twitter death hoax — a hoax enhanced by Kim Kardashian temporarily spreading the uncertainty to her nearly 13 million followers.
Early Friday morning, a Twitter user who goes by the name "Lorraine Star" was bragging, "I started the Cher Trending topic Because I'm God." Seems Star on Thursday night first tweeted "Cher Died, follow me" at Justin Bieber, then sent out a fake retweet of a fake CNN message, "American recording artist Cher dies at 65 years old. Found dead in Malibu home."
Twitter being Twitter, and @Lorraine_star having almost 15,000 followers for whatever reason, the hoax caught on and became a trending topic.
"Did I juist [sic] hear Cher has passed away? Is this real? OMG," Kardashian said. "I hope this is a twitter joke and not true. I don't see it on the news anywhere. I'm praying its not true…"
Guess those prayers paid off for Kimmy, who next said, "Can't believe people would make up a sick joke like Cher died. These people need to get a life! Thanks twitter for clearing that up!"
Of course, while Kardashian was going through her 140-character voyage of discovery about Cher's health, she had actually passed along the "sick joke" to any of her 12,800,000 or so followers who might have been watching at the time. Oops.
As one tweep said in response, "Can't believe u would immediately start tweeting about it before finding out facts."

The prince stands below the tower and calls, "Rapunzel Rapunzel, let down your hair!"
Out of the shadows Rapunzel leans out the window and cries "No, no not today darling, my hair is dry, coarse and I don't need any more split ends! Maybe come back tomorrow when I've washed it?"
Okay that's not how the story goes but if it did how would the fairytale ever get to finish?! The problems of split ends and dry hair do in fact tend to be the common issues we have with our hair ...rather than lots of undamaged flowing locks!
I hold my hands up to it, when it comes to hair I am the queen of disasters. It has mainly been down to terrible hairdressers, home kits gone wrong or my lack of motivation, and each time my hair has been on an intense recovery diet afterwards....until it happens again! I've had bleaching that has left my hair with blobs (yes I did say that) I've died my hair black by mistake and more recently my hair was bleached so badly I thought it was going to fall out, and that was the day before my sister's wedding when I was a bridesmaid.... I time these things well!
Never mind, we live, we learn I guess. This is all well and good but one thing that I did find regardless of how much I took care of it, my hair would have a paddy about certain shampoos. It's only happened in the last few years, but I feel like I have been on a constant quest to seek good products to use. What tended to happen was I'd wash it but it would feel stiff and matted, and even after leaving any conditioner in for longer it didn't make a bit of difference.
Since being looked after by the TONI&GUY team at London Fashion Week, the lovely people sent me some of their label.m shampoo and conditioner to try. My initial thought was, 'if only they knew my hair' but decided to be brave and give it a go. I did a bit of research on label.m and discovered their haircare products are 'where fashion meets iconic styling'... I was definitely ready to for that!
|label.m Gentle Cleansing Shampoo - £9.95
|label.m Daily Shine Conditioner - £12.50
The LookWhen looking at the outer bottle packaging, it comes across as sleek which made me feel like this was going to be a quite simple shampoo and conditioner. It's hard to describe but it looked quite classic and sophisticated.
The ProcessI got in the shower, wet my hair and then started to apply the shampoo, firstly the smell is beautiful but not to overpowering. All was so far so good as my rebellious hair was enjoying being lathered in the stuff. A big bonus was my hair wasn't matting or becoming stiff it was doing the opposite, in fact I even had to check the bottle to make sure I'd not just applied the conditioner by mistake. I hadn't, this was actually working well on my hair.
After giving my needed locks a good scrub I rinsed and applied the conditioner, this smells equally as nice so on it went. I have combination hair, some bits get oily and some bits are dry, so I just popped the conditioner on the ends then left it whilst I washed. After leaving it on for a bit I then rinsed it all off and... ta-da my hair felt amazing.
AfterwardsIt was smooth and even after drying and styling it felt full and soft. If you had seen or felt my hair before you'd understand how much trouble I've been through hunting for the ideal shampoo. Just to be sure (and to test this product properly) I've used this product all the way to the end of the bottle just to prove to you and myself that it's not beginners luck. It really isn't, how do I know this? My mum commented on my hair (this never happens trust me) she said how thick and good it was looking! Result!
You can get label.m from any TONI&GUY salon, or you can order online. One thing I loved was you can purchase these great gift packs of shampoo complete with a Giles Deacon toiletry bag! That's right label.m have joined forces with Giles Deacon to launch these exclusive gift packages.
|label.m - Honey & Oat Gift Set - £22.95
label.m - Mini Stocking Filler Gift Set - 12.00
|label.m & Giles Deacon Toiletry Pouch - Buy any two products from label.m's range and receive this colourful delight!
Whatever way you look at it you're getting quality haircare but also designer exclusives, which regardless will make any present that bit better. Who isn't going to want a Giles Deacon pouch and super hair products when they go away?! ...My thoughts exactly! Pop into your local TONI&GUY to pick up any of the products, or if you're wanting to find out more about the products you can purchase head over to label.m to have a nosy.

|CNBC is reporting Republican Senator Rand Paul plans to put a "hold" on the nomination of Janet Yellen to be chair of the Federal Reserve, a move that would force supporters to round up 60 votes in the 100 seat Senate to confirm her. The White House was always expected to have to secure 60 votes for the nomination to clear procedural roadblocks, and Democrats would need only five Republicans to support Yellen.
