This 1944 gold washed sterling fur clip by Trifari has three large oval, unfoiled and open backed topaz colored stones down the center with tiny crystal chatons down each side. There is only very slight wear to the gold wash. It measures 2 3/8 inches by 1 1/2 inches. The design patent number for this piece is 137546.
Your jewelry should reflect your style. If you don't see something at Lucky Lady Vintage that suits your style, let me know. I have a huge inventory that isn't online yet.
Trifari was considered one of the largest and best known producers of costume jewelry. It started producing hair ornaments, buckles, and bar pins in silver and base metals set with rhinestones and later manufactured, a broad range of costume jewelry creating superb designs and workmanship at different price levels. The Trifari jewelry produced had a distinctive look, resembling fine jewelry, which can easily be recognized by collectors. Much of this is due to the work of a great designer, Alfred Philippe, who worked and designed jewelry for Trifari, for approximately 38 years, from 1930 to 1968, using high quality imported Swarovski rhinestones that were hand-set in the jewelry piece. Philippe worked as a designer of fine jewelry for Cartier and Van Cleef & Arpels, and brought to Trifari many imaginative ideas. He is largely responsible for the creation and development of Trifari's distinctive and classic look. There were also other well-known designers who joined Trifari: Jean Paris (1958- 1965), Andre Boeuf (1967-1979), who had worked for Cartier, and Diane Love (1971-1974) who designed the company's modern and contemporary jewelry in the early 1970s. Up until the 1960s, Trifari lead the world in the industry of costume jewelry producing the highest quality and styles from imaginative sterling vermeil figurals of the 1940's to its classic gold and silver-tone jewelry of today. The Trifari figurals, retro florals, and jelly-bellies from the 1930s and 1940s are sought after today by collectors.

Kate Middleton to 'beef up' relationships with EU countries in Brexit trade deals plot
PRINCESS Kate could be Britain's secret weapon to win trade deals as Brexit looms.
Foreign Office chiefs are lining up trips to key countries for when we quit the single market.
They reckon Princess Kate's visits will help them bag a better exit deal as they draw up trade terms with each of the 27 EU nations.
The move comes as the Prime Minister said Article 50 would be triggered by March next year, and we will formally start pulling Britain out of the EU.
One ex-British ambassador said: "We need to start beefing up our bi-lateral relationships with EU countries, and the Royal Family is a very potent force in that exercise.
"It's obvious that the Duchess is going to play this part in the future."Oliver Miles
"It would not surprise me if we see more trips to Europe by members of the Royal Family because there are 27 countries and we will want to let them know that we haven't left the scene."
Oliver Miles, another former diplomat, said: "It's obvious that the Duchess is going to play this part in the future."
Kate will today jet off to Holland in the first of a round of trips to EU countries.
Social media users swamped Twitter over the Princess' visit to the Hague.
Smithie said: "After the cod's ear politicians have made of our European relations, the royals certainly couldn't do any worse."
Kate will meet King Willem-Alexander in her first solo trip abroad.
She will also promote an exhibition of Dutch paintings loaned from the British Royal Collection and attend a conference on mental health.
Buckingham Palace last night declined to comment on the purpose of the trip.
It came as Prime Minister Theresa May yesterday jetted off to the continent in a flurry of trips to EU countries.
She swooped into the Hague and Marienborg in Denmark as she works to build trade bridges with member state nations.

President John Mahama has indicated that the completion of the Tema harbour will create about 5,000 jobs.
Government is receiving good signals from the ongoing three-year economic stabilisation programme with the International Monetary Fund (IMF), President John Dramani Mahama had said.
He mentioned the handling of expenditures as one area where the result was positive and added that, "We are also doing all our best to stabilise the micro economy, bring down interest rates and inflation."
Mr. Mahama said this when officials of the Ghana Ports and Habours Authority (GPHA) and Meridian Ports Services ( MPS) called on him at the Flagstaff House to brief him on the agreement signed for the expansion of the Tema Port.
The GPHA, and MPS, a joint venture between Bolloré Africa Logistics and APM Terminals, signed the agreement earlier on Friday to undertake the mega expansion works.
The project, which is scheduled to be completed in three years would have four new berths that could take the largest vessels in the world.
Terminal facilities to be constructed would include bulk, liquid bulk and general cargo terminals as global trade with African countries accelerate.
Touching on the power problem, the President said everything was being done to stabilize the situation.
"I am sure that very sooner than later we will have stable and adequate power for all investors," he said.
Investor confidence
President Mahama said the $ 1.5 billion agreement signed for the expansion of the Port of Tema was a testimony of the growing investor confidence in the country.
"You won't have this investment coming in when you nought that the Ghanaian economy was going down," he said.
Additional project
In a separate project but with links to the port expansion, APM Terminals and Bolloré Africa Logistics will upgrade the Accra and Tema motorway to a six-lane modern highway along with improved connecting roads and access point to enhance the movement of cargoes into and out of the port of Tema and the hinterland.
The President said he was excited with the works going on in Tema port because they were all privately-funded.
They would thus not add to the problems government had with debt management.
"That is why I think it is unique and it is worth celebrating, " he said.
He indicated that the project was going to be the single largest investment in Ghana in the non-oil sector.
Mr. Mahama said when the project was completed, Ghana would rank high as one of the best in terms of port efficiency in the world.
He congratulated the parties for that extraordinary collaboration.
Touching on the ongoing Takoradi Port expansion, the President said it also demonstrated the determination by government to bolster economic development.
Present included the Minister of Transport, Mrs Dzifa Attivor and the Board Chairman of GPHA, Mr. Samuel Ofosu-Ampofo.

Explosion In Free Online Classes May Change Course Of Higher Education
Two of the country's most prestigious universities are teaming up to put their classes online, for free. The partnership between Harvard and MIT is a $60 million venture. And it's part of a trend that's changing higher education.
NPR's Steve Henn, who's in Silicon Valley, tuned in for today's announcement in Cambridge and joins us now.
Hi, Steve. I guess that's the whole point. You didn't have to be in Cambridge.
STEVE HENN, BYLINE: That's right.
SIEGEL: Harvard and MIT are just the latest prestigious universities to jump into free, online education. What's the big trend here? What's happening?
HENN: Well, there seems to be a bit of a stampede. This field is known as Massively Open Online Courses and recently, a number of well-known universities have jumped into it. And a number of companies out here in Silicon Valley have been founded to take part. So last month, Stanford, Princeton, Berkeley, the University of Pennsylvania and Michigan announced that they began working with a startup based here, called Corsara, that will put classes online this year - ranging from computer science classes to public health to poetry.
Earlier this year, Sebastian Thrun, who is another Stanford professor - and one of the inventors of Google's self-driving car - announced he was leaving Stanford to start a company called Udacity. And he's hiring world-class professors from leading universities to create more free, online classes. And both of these companies grew out of an experiment at Stanford last year, where a group of computer science professors decided that they could put their classes online, allow students to take interactive quizzes, participate in online forums, and actually get grades.
Those classes drew hundreds of thousands of students from all over the world. And that sparked a lot of interest across academia, in trying to replicate that kind of model.
SIEGEL: So what is new in the model that Harvard and MIT have now announced?
HENN: Well, they're doing a couple things differently. First, they're creating a nonprofit. And secondly, both pledge that they're going to release their platform - their software - for free,when it's fully developed, as an open-source product for anyone to use. And finally, they're inviting other universities to use the platform and put their own classes online for free.
SIEGEL: Can you get a grade, or can you ultimately get a degree from taking courses this way?
HENN: Well, for now, you can get a grade. But if you go to the university and try to matriculate, you know, they're not going to count that class toward your degree. Right now, none of these universities are offering a degree program unless you pay. All of them offer degree programs online if you pay.
SIEGEL: Online education has been around for a while. There have been some ventures in this area that have been started - and failed already. Why now? Why is there this sudden explosion of interest?
HENN: Well, one of the reasons that it's exploding, I think, is because it's become so much cheaper and easier to put a class online. And that has combined with using technologies in new ways to make these online classes better. So I mentioned interactive quizzes before. There are comment forums, where the most interesting concerns rise to the top. And all of these tools have really made it possible to teach an online class with 100,000 students, and deliver a class that really has value.
I mean, in the early days of online education, basically, you had a camera at the back of a lecture hall, videotaping a lecture. This is really quite different.
SIEGEL: Do people talk about the shut-in, matriculating couch potato of the future who never leaves his or her bedroom or computer - to take an entire college degree?
HENN: You know, I haven't heard stories about that as much. But I have heard stories of students who are shut-in - either because of health concerns, or because they live in a very isolated part of the world - who are able to take classes this way. And while perhaps someday, there may be people who never leave their basement, I think at this point, there are many thousands more people around the world who really, this is a window that opens and allows them to see a bigger, broader piece of the world than they could before.
SIEGEL: Thanks, Steve.
HENN: Sure.
SIEGEL: That's NPR's Steve Henn, speaking to us from Silicon Valley.

A woman, identified as, Grace Onome has been arrested for allegedly selling her two-year-old daughter, Zainab in Badagry area of Lagos State. Onome was arrested on Saturday by the Badagry Police Division after a tip-off.
Four accomplices, who allegedly aided the sale of the girl, were also arrested by the police. Onome, who worked as a commercial sex worker in the Mobil area of Badagry, allegedly sold Zainab, who has not been found to another sex worker, identified only as Endurance.
Police say operatives were on the trail of Endurance in order to rescue Zainab. "It was on Saturday that Grace (Onome) and Endurance had the transaction. They are both commercial sex workers in the area. Endurance gave Zainab's mother N50,000, before taking the girl away. The mother said she used the money to buy a few things for herself. The fleeing buyer is of no fixed address. But the police are on her trail."
A child rights' worker, Ebenezer Omejalile, said a request had been made to the police to have the case transferred to the Gender Unit, Lagos State Police Command, Ikeja, for more investigation.
The Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer, SP Dolapo Badmos, confirmed Onome's arrest.

Thanks for that bit of common sense.
Every once in awhile I do that.;)
I got kicked out of Catholic School because I said that "being Catholic" was not sufficient reason for voting for Kennedy....based on THEIR premise that a Catholic is a automatically a better person. I don't even want to talk about what they thought of Jews!! 1961
The underlying assumption of the court seems to be that ID proponents are driven exclusively by faith, and that a scientific consideration by anyone with faith is not only impossible, but is an oxymoron.
I cannot say, because I am guilty, but as a scientist I believe ID is demonstrable.
I will bring up a previous post on the geologic record if you like.

Thank for the link I'll check it out!
Actually, I really likes apps kind of accelerate the learning process.
Josh Write showed one in his video which was absolutely wonderful. I tried to find it but it either only exists for iOS or is only accessible in the US. I am not sure.
(Anyway I cannot see any achievement under my signature. It says: learning and wanna play. Achievement is zero.)
By the way, thanks for your reply.

Posted 16 June 2017 - 19:40
I have the Eric Taylor theory books Volumes 1 & 2, also the G6 theory workbook (it has a big number 6 on the front) the workbook has examples of all the 5 questions and exercises in the G6 theory exam with some answers in the back. I also have a teacher who guides me as part of my piano lesson each week. Once I have worked through the questions I'll start completing past exam papers, I'm just tackling the figured base now (we left that exercise to the last) gulp

I really like the Wessar Sight Read 4 ap:
It is programmed to simulate exam conditions. It gives you 30 seconds to look at a piece, and then it starts. It counts in two bars, and then you start reading. It "disappears" the bars after you play them, so you have to continually be reading ahead.

The Tamil Nadu chief minister M Karunanidhi said so yesterday, questioning critics what was wrong if his sons and grandsons made their presence felt in Tamil cinema.
"There is so much criticism against my family members for being involved in the film industry. Yes, my grandsons are into producing movies. But it is not a wrong thing to produce movies as it is also an accepted profession,"? he said at the at the music launch of 'Murattu Kaalai', a film produced by his grand nephew Gunanidhi Amirtham here.
Karunandhi's grandsons, Udayanidhi Stalin and Dayanidhi Azhagiri, have floated their own film production companies, while one of his grandnephews and brother of Union Minister Dayanidhi Maran, Kalanidhi Maran, who co-owns media empire Sun TV Group, has also stepped into production.
"It would not be a matter of surprise even if my great grandson also becomes a producer.", the 86-year old CM said.
Karunanidhi said he has been associated with the Tamil film industry for the past 50 years, referring to his career as a scriptwriter for various films, including the landmark Parasakthi, which launched thespian Sivaji Ganesan in Tamil cinema.
At the function, actor Vikram received the first copy of the film's audio CD from the Chief Minister. Deputy Chief Minister M K Stalin, Tamil Film Producers Council president Rama Narayanan, Film Employees Federation of South India chief V C Guhanathan, producer Karunamoorthy, actor-director R Parthiban, actors Vivek, Suman and others took part.

Every September it now seems that Apple launches a new version of the very popular iPhone. This years version is the Apple 6s and 6s Plus are now out and of course experience very good sales. With Apple enjoying great success all over the world it no surprise that people eagerly anticipate the launch of every new product from this company.
The latest Apple launch is really just a small upgrade over the precious models, the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus with the major redesign coming next year when the iPhone 7 version comes. Already we are hearing news of many exciting enhancements to the next version.
Although this latest Apple launch was meant to correct a few flaws in the previous version, it was not much of a change at all. A few enhancements here and there but nothing major that would make you run out and buy it if you own the iPhone 6. Mainly because next years models promise to be a huge success even with only rumors right now.
Mainly Apple likes to launch a new phone each year to keep their brand messaging alive. Every time Apple launches a new product it gets a tremendous amount of publicity. It also keeps people who are looking for a new phone that were previously with another brand the option of purchasing a new iPhone.
Apple understands the entire marketing process and in order to be relevant you have to constantly come out with something new. In addition to being in the minds of consumers at all times, you want them to have that feeling of anticipation that each launch will bring about a host of changes. Even though this round didn't exactly bring us much in the way of change, it is setting Apple up for very big things to come in the future.
People are already talking about the next launch as if they know exactly what Apple has in store. Leaks have come about completely new designs that are sure to make every Apple fan drool with anticipation. Soon enough the next launch will be right around the corner and we will be hearing news about all the great features. Until that time comes, enjoy the Apple 6s and 6s Plus, as they are truly great phones in their own right.
All over the world consumers have been waiting for new Apple products to emerge, and now with the latest launch in 2015 they have something new to last them for awhile.

- make and type of vehicle;
- number of axles and wheels;
- key characteristics of the tyres.
If the competent authority considers that the vehicle complies with all the requirements laid down in respect of the installation of tyres, it delivers EC type–approval and assigns a type–approval number in accordance with Directive 2007/46/EC.

Kitchener Coun. Kelly Galloway-Sealock wants the province to re-examine guidelines for councillors seeking parental leave.
Currently, the Municipal Act states that the office of any councillor becomes vacant if they are absent for more than three months and their leave hasn't been authorized by council. But it doesn't specifically state what the rules are on parental leave.
"It's not about extending the leave," Galloway-Sealock said. "It's really about just adding wording into the municipal act."
Galloway-Sealock is the first Kitchener councillor to be pregnant while in office.
Council will consider the motion Monday at a special meeting.

It's been 3 years that the Daesang winner won by such an overwhelming margin. This is the 4th year, imagine there's a rookie idol group that will appear out of nowhere and sweep all the awards, not giving the award to EXO will be the epitome of unfair....ㅋㅋ
Their results are so good....ㅋㅋㅋ It must be frustrating for others that it's already fact that EXO will win for a 4th time...ㅋㅋ They have to prepare the same award every time
When they entered the vaccum EXO were kinda halted, but now that they came back, Nate PANN is totally being dominated by them everywhere you go, there's EXOㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
post response:

- One thing is certain, they will give the daesang to EXO. They will also receive an award for their album. There was 660K pre-orders, if just this is not enough to receive an award, anyone who receives it will be 100% manipulated
- 2042
- ㅇㅇ |2016.06.12 00:32
- I honestly think that EXO will take all the album awards too. Even though Seoul Music Award is known for their manipulations, if they're not giving it to EXO, there's gonna be a huge controversy. Their daesang standards are on-site reactions but also digital sales..

- ㅇㅇ |2016.06.12 11:15

They normally have a lot of fans joining the fandom,

However, EXO fans are all welcomingㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
They even say that anyways, it's not like they originally have any chance on purchasing the tickets anyways so they don't even care anymoreㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
post response:

- There's a good thing in being an EXO fan. People say that you won't need to worry about award ceremoniesㅇㅇ they'll take all the awardsㅋㅋㅋBut negative points are ticketing and fansign events, you'll feel like dying... You need a lot of transfers and EXO are pretty expensive too..ㅎ...

They're EXO-Ls
Normally on the first week of promotion, other groups will sell a lot of fansign events and it's a good thing. But that's not the case for EXO-Ls.The fandom is requesting SM to push back the fansign and if SM decides to hold it, it's gonna hurt their pride..
SM please delay the fansigns...
post response:
- ㅇㅇ |2016.06.12 22:02
- Ah seriously if in the futures, they do first week's fansigns, their albums will certainly break new records. In only 3 days after their comeback, they already sold 460K~~~~

Emerald Ash Borers
So you think you have Rats in your Garden?
Think Again!
Guide Provided by Julie Samuels of Openlands
There is a concern among some people in Chicago that growing a garden, especially a food garden, will attract rats. Before you jump to that conclusion, please consider the following:
Every living Creature requires three things to survive: Food, Water and Shelter. Removing or altering anyone of these three things will negatively impact a creature's ability to survive and they will leave to find them somewhere else.
Background on the presence of rats in Chicago
The common brown rat (Rattus norvegicus– also called the Norway rat or sewer rat) is a destructive animal pest found in any city because they thrive in the same places that human beings live.
Where they Live
Rats can be found in sewers or any place where garbage and refuse is located. They can be found living in (or under) any city. They are equally at home in dry, dusty environments as they are in dank, wet ones. They build their nests outside the walls of homes and other buildings or in various clumps of vegetation and may also construct their homes beneath the edges of sidewalks or patios. They live in almost complete darkness, rarely emerging in daylight.
City Rats thrive in environments where humans live that have dark holes and broken walls such as in abandoned and derelict buildings. The presence of rats can be detected by droppings or evidence of fresh gnawing, though there are many other wild animals in the city that leave droppings, tracks and evidence of gnawing. Tracks can be seen in mud and on dusty surfaces. Runways and burrows may be found next to buildings, along fences, and under low vegetation and debris.
What They Eat
Rats live off of whatever they can find that is edible. A typical City Rat diet consists of garbage that is carelessly left around or is easily accessible in the garbage cans in our alleys and which, unfortunately, are often left open and overflowing. They also enjoy food scraps thrown down on the ground from people and pets. They are the original "junk food junkies" – they thrive on what people so often seek out for a quick high calorie meal – fatty, cooked foods. They are also extremely fond of what your dog leaves behind, both before and after dinner when you take him for a walk (yes, excrement). Only if they can't find any of their preferred food, will they seek out fresh vegetables or fruit from a garden. "Rats will eat nearly any type of food, but they prefer high-quality foods such as meat and fresh grain."[1]
How to Control Rats
Rats will come into gardens and houses for a number of reasons. First and foremost, rats are always on the look out for food (foraging) and if they find it they will seek shelter and "move in", setting up residence under decking, sheds or nice warm, unmanaged compost heaps and breed. Rats will NOT come into your garden if you do the following:
How to Reduce the Risk of Rats Being Attracted to Your Garden:
- Practice Good Sanitation
- Provide NO Shelter
- Deprive them of Preferred Food
The following tips will reduce the chances of having rats establish themselves in your garden:
- Ensure that drains are in good condition and good repair and there is no standing water.
- When feeding birds in your garden, use a bird feeder and ensure that any food that falls to the ground is cleared away daily. You may choose to stop feeding the birds in your garden for a period of time, especially in the summer when you really want the birds to be munching on insects in your garden and the naturally occurring seeds and berries from trees and perennials.
- Don't leave food lying around on the ground in your garden for wildlife or homeless cats.
- Ensure that dog and cat pet foods are not left unattended and remove the bowls for cleaning as soon as they are empty.
- Clean away spillages of food as well as excrement from rabbit, guinea pigs, bird and pet cages and where possible ensure that they are raised off the ground by at least 8″ and positioned on a hard surface, this will enable you to clean under them thoroughly and frequently.
- Do not put meat or other non-vegetable/fruit food waste onto composters and where possible use a properly designed composting unit.
- The compost heap offers warmth and shelter, but is not a food source unless high protein, cooked foods, meat and fatty refuse as well as grains, eggs, cheese and dairy products are added to the compost – NEVER add these things to your open compost bin.
- Out buildings and sheds should be constructed and manufactured so that rats cannot gain access. Particular attention should be paid to any gaps around the door. Remember thy can enter through very small spaces – so leave no gaps at all.
- Ensure that gardens do not become overgrown or allow rubbish to build up e.g. old mattresses and furniture, as this will provide shelter for rats to live in and under.
- Inspect your garbage containers and those of your neighbors in your alley, to insure they are not over-flowing and are closed and not accessible by rats or other animals roaming around. It is the waste in a garbage can that rats like best. Close the can and keep the rats away!
- Clean up the refuse and garbage lying around in your alley and in any empty sheds or buildings in your neighborhood. Good sanitary practices will not eliminate rats under all conditions, but will make the environment less suitable for them to thrive.
What Should I Do If I See A Rat (or what I think is evidence of a rat) in My Garden?
First, don't jump to the conclusion that gnawed or missing vegetables are the result of the presence of rats. Squirrels are more than likely responsible for stealing your vegetables and then leaving the evidence behind just to irritate you. Other city wildlife, like opossum, groundhogs, raccoons and rabbits are also responsible for eating your precious vegetables. And yes, there are a lot of these wild animals in Chicago!
Follow the above suggestions and you will be able to eliminate the things that will attract rats, which is the cause of the problem. That will go a long way to eliminating the problem and will be the end of the matter.
Conclusion: Remember that rats need three things: Food, Water and Shelter.
If you eliminate the standing water and the food that rats prefer and don't provide places where they can find shelter…you won't have a serious problem with rats. And at the same time you will minimize the problems with other unwanted wildlife including insects.

- Please read the Chicago Compost Ordinance to familiarize yourself with the rules and regulations governing the construction and management of organic garden wastes.
- All composting operations, especially those including food scraps must be done in an enclosed composting system. Review the Chicago Home Composting Guide for details.
- Gardners at Brickyard Garden in Woodlawn manage a feral cat colony as their primary rat defense. Gardeners provide the cats with modest shelter and food. In turn, the presence of cats keep the rats at bay.

Widely considered one of America's greatest post-war authors, over a literary career spanning half a century he wrote more than 60 books.
They included 28 novels, of which the best known were the Rabbit series and The Witches of Eastwick.
Updike died at a hospice near his home in Beverly Farms, Massachusetts, where he lived with his second wife, Martha.
A shy, modest and religious man who avoided the celebrity world, Updike had kept quiet publicly about his illness.
Only a few weeks ago, he told an interviewer that he had no intention of retiring and admitting only that he was showing "some signs of mental deterioration".
Last month, he told The Daily Telegraph: "If you've had the Biblical three score and 10, and then a bit more on top of it...then you certainly should be content. As you get closer, as death becomes more real, so it becomes friendlier."
Alfred A Knopf, his publisher, announced his death yesterday (tues) in a brief statement from Nicholas Latimer, its publicity director.
"It is with great sadness that I report that John Updike died this morning at the age of 76, after a battle with lung cancer. He was one of our greatest writers, and he will be sorely missed," he said.
"He was obviously one of the best writers in the world," said David Remnick, editor of the New Yorker magazine, for which Updike wrote since the early 1950s.
"We adored him. He was, for so long, the spirit of The New Yorker and it is very hard to imagine things without him."
William Pritchard, a professor of English at Amherst College who studied and knew Updike, praised his versatility - writing fiction, nonfiction and verse.
"He stands, for me, at the very top of the practice of being a man of letters. Each activity was carried on with great intelligence, and wit and love", he said.
Updike won virtually every major US literary prize, including two Pullitzers, both for books about his most celebrated creation, Harry "Rabbit" Angstrom, a failed ex-high school basketball star whose life he charted over four novels.
He made no apology concentrating on the lives of ordinary Americans.
Updike described his subject as "the American small town, Protestant middle class" and said the writer's task was to "give the mundane its beautiful due".
Despite his cancer, Updike showed no sign of wanting to stop writing, insisting instead that it kept him going.
Earlier this month, he told the Kansas City Star newspaper: "I don't know what I'd do with my mornings if I didn't write in them. There are pleasures to writing - you kind of get out a lot of your bad secretions."
But he added: "On the other hand, I notice some signs of mental deterioration. My memory isn't as good; I can't think of words. I might forget what one character's eyes are. Maybe each novel might be the lsat - but no, I'm not quite ready yet."
The literary world was not always flattering over Updike's prose, particularly in its emphasis on suburban infidelity. Last November, Literary Review magazine awarded him its Bad Sex in Fiction lifetime achievement award.

Wella Lifetex Nutri-Care Range
2 reviews from the community
Review of "Wella Lifetex Nutri-Care Range"
"Give Life To your Hair"
Can you hear you hair call Feed me…. Feed me……I have been frequently visiting my hairdresser for the last 6 years and trust her hair judgement 100%. I have my hair coloured, cut and blow dried, have tried different styles and always like what she achieves with my hair.
So why should I not trust her 100% on how to make my hair look its best between visits.What She Recommends?
My hairdresser sells a few different ranges of hair care products and is not tied into any particular manufacturer in any way.
I have used Wella products for many years both in perm solutions and hair care products and feel it is a name that can be trusted.
So when Amanda advised a new Wella range was going to be launched in 2003 I was excited to try.The good thing is that you get to try the products while in the salon when she does my hair so I know beforehand what they can do. Also she is not at all pushy in selling them which I like. I like to buy when I want to and no hard sales pitch would work on me I am afraid.
Wella Lifetex Nutri-care Range **New for January 2003**
Wella has crammed the goodness of these ideas into a shampoo, conditioning treatments and styling products which are divided into six categories for all the different hair types.Price:- Each product costs £5.65 each
I think that this is a very reasonable price considering that each bottle lasts for ages and you do not need a huge amount each time concentrated.The categories are as follows:-
1) Extra Rich – for damaged hair
2) Volume – for fine hair
3) Color - to enhance natural and colour-treated hair
4) Curl – for permed and natural curls
5) Balanced – for scalp problems and hair loss
6) Moisture – for normal to dry
So their would be a product to suit anybody's hair type.Personal Use
As my hair is colour treated I can only base my opinion of this part of the range, but please feel free to try for yourself.
Color-nutrition Shampoo 250ml
The first thing I noticed was the lovely colour of the bottle. A wonderful warm golden orange/yellow shade which made you feel bright and fresh just looking at it.
The second thing was it was a nice chunky size to hold and with a flip top lid easy to use especially getting access when your hands are wet in the shower etc. The flip top lid easily shuts at one touch with your finger.
Verdict 10/10How to use as on the bottle and what it says too….
A professional hair care product with a complex of nutrients, plus pro-vitamins B5 and apricot oil to leave the hair looking naturally beautiful and healthy. The formula of rich active ingredients protects the brilliance of coloured hair and gently cleanses it.
Application: Apply a small amount to damp hair and distribute evenly. Massage into a lather. Rinse thoroughly and repeat if requiredDermatology tested for skin compatibility
Salon Exclusive Brand – Visit your local salon for more details.Smell
A lovely aroma of fresh apricots you can certainly smell them. 10/10
Silky smooth and rich to the touch you can feel the quality straight away. It glides in your hand before application. You only need a small amount as it does go along way.
Hair Condition
After shampoo my hair feels squeaky clean and unlike other shampoos you can feel the softness even before a conditioner is applied.
Personally I have to follow the shampoo with the conditioner at every wash. So I also choose the intensive conditioner treatment left this on for a few minutes and washed off.
It helps keep my blonde highlights bright and colourful and removes any build up or residue on the hair between washes. My hair feels silky smooth and wonderful. I like to have 2 ranges going at the same time as I do not like to wash in same every time. I can certainly tell the difference when I have used my Wella range, my hair is soft but manageable and looks great too both colour and shine.
