I was about one week into my planned three weeks of preliminary WSOP events, and I was not off to a good start. After busting just a few hours into each of my first five tournaments due to some combination of bad luck and arguably bad play, I'd finally survived nearly the entire first day of a Venetian $2,500 deep-stack tournament only to bust with less than an hour remaining. Not that there's any prize for surviving a full day, but there's something especially disheartening about playing all day and having nothing to show for it, not even a Day 2 redraw slip.
On the plus side, I was free to play the Saturday $1,500 WSOP no-limit hold 'em event, which despite a kind of fast structure is a great tournament in terms of the field it draws. Although it too ultimately ended in frustration, it presented a few opportunities to renew my confidence.
The first occurred shortly after Phil Ivey took a seat on my immediate left. Rather than cursing my luck to end up with one of the very best of the thousands of players still in the tournament, I resolved to look at as a cool experience and learning opportunity. Blinds were 100/200, and he had only about 5,000 chips, so how much damage could he really do anyway?
I opened to 400 with KT in middle position, Phil called, and everyone else folded. The flop came 6 4 3, and I began strategizing how to structure the betting so that I got to make the last bet without shoving several times the pot. I decided that a small bet might induce a bluff-raise, so I bet 450. Phil raised to 1,100, I jammed for 3,500 more, and he folded quickly and returned to his texting.
Phil probably forgot about this hand seconds after it happened, but although it was in some ways a standard spot, I intend to remember it as the time I outplayed Phil Ivey. I knew what I wanted him to do, I made a plan to induce a bluff-raise from him, and it worked. This may sound arrogant, but I figure if you're going to be hard on yourself about your mistakes, and most of us are, then you better take time to give yourself a pat on the back when you do something well. I can only imagine how impossibly excited I would have been eight years ago if you'd told me that I would one day be putting a move on Phil Ivey at the World Series of Poker.
At my next table, I made another move I'm proud of. Blinds were 300/600/100, a good player opened to 1,300 in early position, got one call, and then I called with A9 in the big blind. I checked intending to fold a J T 5 flop, but I reconsidered after it checked around, concluding that neither of my opponents was likely to have a strong hand.
The turn was the 7, I bet 3,000, and surprisingly they both called. A 2 on the river brought another opportunity. Figuring that either of my opponents would have bet a flush draw on the flop, I bet 8,000, and they both folded.
In the last hour of the day, I was fortunate enough to have two of the least tough players at the table on my immediate left. Blinds were 800/1,600/200, and for a variety of reasons, I expected that the blinds would only call pre-flop with hands they considered "good" and that they wouldn't three-bet light. So, I opened with a raise to 3,200 holding 52. The small blind called and the big blind folded.
The flop came 8 4 2. Villain checked, I bet 2,000, and he raised to 5,500. I thought he was most likely on a bluff, possibly with a draw but maybe even with just two overcards. I called.
The turn was the T, and he bet 6,500. Suspecting that he had either nothing or a huge hand, with the former being a lot more likely than the latter, I called.
The river was a 9, and he bet 10,000. I was getting nearly three-to-one, there were very few value hands I could see him playing this way, and the flush draw missed. I called, and he showed 76 for a gutshot that ran out a different straight.
I'll never know whether he would have played two spades or KJ the same way, but given that my read was right on the first two streets, it's tempting to think that he would have. He doesn't have to be bluffing often for my river call to be correct, so I'd like to think that I just got unlucky to run into a backdoor straight. Of course there's a case to be made for folding pre-flop, or for jamming the turn.
This is one of the hardest things about poker, that there are so many spots where you'll never know whether you made the right play. Sick as it may sound, I practically welcome bad beats. I know I'm not going to win most of the tournaments that I enter, and especially when I've sold action, it's so much easier to be able to point to a four-outer and say, "Whelp, I got our money in good, what are you gonna do?" I'm selective about the people to whom I sell action – they all understand how poker works and trust my judgment, and I've never actually had any of them express regret about investing in me – but it still hurts to keep sending them paragraphs-long explanations of how I lost all or most of our chips with 52 on a 842T9 board.
That's why it's so important to remember times when you played well. It's a tremendous relief to be able to point to something like that Phil Ivey hand and say that that, unequivocally, was a damn fine hand of poker.
Although I'd just taken Thursday as a day off, I'd spent 13 hours on each of Friday and Saturday grinding tournaments with nothing to show for it, so I gave myself Sunday off as well, and then played another Venetian tournament on Monday.
It got off to a bad start. On the fourth hand, the player in the CO took a good long look at his cards, often a sign of a non-nut hand, and then opened for 250 at 50/100. The button and the SB called, and I had AJ in the BB. I reraised to 1,250, and only the CO called.
The flop came 852 with two hearts, I bet, and he called. I barreled an offsuit Q on the turn, and he called again. The river was a K and I decided it was worth taking one more small (relative to the pot – it was about 1/3 of our starting stack) stab in case he'd been stubborn with a medium pair. He called with 88.
In a sense, my read was right: he did have a non-premium hand pre-flop, and given that I'm going to squeeze big pairs in this spot, I can make his set-mining strategy less profitable by squeezing some big suited Aces as well. I wouldn't always barrel them like this, but the nut flush draw is an awfully good barreling hand. This is what I call a bluff-cooler: he was lucky to make a set on a flop that also gave me a lot of incentive to bluff with a hand that wouldn't ordinarily pay off a set.
Even when they don't work, bluffs don't always cost you as much as it seems. You may recoup at least some of your losses in the form of additional action on your big hands later. That's what made it especially frustrating to go card-dead for the next few hours. I didn't expect to move anyone off of any sort of hand, so I mostly played passive poker, trying to see flops and make hands that could get paid off. I wasn't getting any premiums, and I wasn't hitting any flops.
The biggest hand I got was towards the end of the 100/200 level. The first player to act, with a stack of about 30K, raised to 525. The next player called with 16K behind, then the button made it 2K from a stack of 35K. He'd reraised like this more than once, but he'd shown a big pair every time, so I had a decision when I looked down at AKo in the SB and 8K in my stack. I knew he wasn't folding, and a race was the best I could hope for. Of course if I did actually get it heads up with button, there'd be 1,350 in dead money to race for, but with an under-the-gun raiser still holding a live hand, that was a big "if".
Part of me was tempted just to shrug and stick the money in. The tournament was already not going my way, why not just gamble, get lucky or go home? Who would fault me for stacking off with AK and a short stack?
But I knew it wasn't the right move, and I'm proud to say I made a disciplined fold. The original raiser ended up four-betting and getting it in on a ragged flop with JJ versus the button's QQ. Knowing that those were their hands, folding my AK was at least a small mistake (assuming one of them would have folded – it was a big mistake if I could have gotten all-in against both of them), but I felt vindicated: I was right that they had big pairs, and either could easily have had a bigger one.
There's so much glory in a big bluff or heroic call, but I encourage my brain to give me a shot of dopamine when I make a big fold, too. I know I'd be a more successful player if I made them more often. In this tournament, it turned out not to matter: I blinded down a bit and then lost a flip for the last of my chips.
My next event was the $3,000 Mixed Max. I was on the fence about playing, because I knew the field would be tough, but it sounded like a fun event, and for whatever reason I felt extra-motivated on the day of the tournament, so I bought in.
On Day 1, we played nine-handed. Faraz Jaka was the only player I recognized at my starting table, but most everyone played well. Needless to say, with Faraz at the table, there was a lot of action. In the first half-hour of play, we saw two six-bet pots. In the first, Faraz five-bet and folded to a shove. The very next hand, he six-bet shoved Aces and got called by AQ to win a massive pot. Obviously getting good action with his premium hands is one of the perks of Faraz's hyper-aggressive style, but still, how good do you have to run to pick up Aces immediately after getting caught in a light five-bet?
The table only got tougher when Vanessa Selbst joined the table two seats to my left. As I did with Phil Ivey, I decided to do my best to study the play of this superstar. I did come away from the experience with a confidence boost, but not in the way I expected.
Vanessa actually played pretty tight, and the first time she attempted a squeeze, one of her opponents quickly moved all-in for several times the pot. She folded and went off about how she never gets any respect, this was the second light 3-bet she'd made all series and both times people jammed on her for absurd amounts, how if she could ever just pick up a hand people were ready to just hand her stacks, etc.
We all just continued playing as though she weren't talking, and pretty soon her rage subsided. To her credit, she apologized to her opponent and to the table at large, saying that it had been a frustrating series and that she was currently 0-for-12 in the tournaments she'd played.
I'm ashamed to say that I took a perverse pleasure in that. As bad as my series had been so far, I was still doing better than Vanessa Selbst! And I was keeping my emotions together better, too. It just goes to show you that no one is immune from doubt and frustration.
Between all the pre-flop aggression play and the tough table, my plan for the day was just to keep my head down, play only hands that could take a lot of heat, and let my opponents drive the action. It ended up coming together beautifully when an under-the-gun player raised, I flatted with Kings in middle position, the cut-off shoved, the original raiser shoved over the top, and I ended up eliminating both of them.
That was the only big pot I played all day, but it was enough to make it through to Day 2 with a slightly below average stack. Both Faraz and Vanessa had been eliminated, and I was feeling good.

The CSI multimedia architecture
- Already Purchased? View Article
- Subscription Options Learn More
An instruction set extension designed to accelerate multimedia applications is presented and evaluated. In the proposed complex streamed instruction (CSI) set, a single instruction can process vector data streams of arbitrary length and stride and combines complex memory accesses (with implicit prefetching), program control for vector sectioning, and complex computations on multiple data in a single operation. In this way, CSI eliminates overhead instructions (such as instructions for data sectioning, alignment, reorganization, and packing/unpacking) often needed in applications utilizing MMX-like extensions and accelerates key multimedia kernels. Simulation results demonstrate that a superscalar processor extended with CSI outperforms the same processor enhanced with Sun's VIS extension by a factor of up to 7.77 on key multimedia kernels and by up to 35% on full applications.

One night in San Fernando
After our long drive we finally made it to San Fernando, to our little beachside hotel Bali Hai. They have cute little wooden cottages as rooms, but unfortunately riddled with mozzys!!!
We were right on the sea front but unfortunately the sea now came right up to the hotel and there was no beach left! The whole place was lovely but needed a bit of TLC, perfect for a one night stay. The hotel bug sprayed our ...
Flash, bang, wallop - what a tricycle
... felt like a place where time had stood still. We were left on our own to relax and cool off a bit more and after an hour we realised we were quite hungry so decided to get moving. We hopped back into his tricycle and wanted to check out a resort up the road that said it had a restaurant so he gave us a lift to the resort and left us at the front gate before thanking us for our visit and zipping off along the dusty road. We asked at the resort if we could get some food and ...
Surfs Up - A lesson in staying vertical
... cretin! Long story and all that, our poor host had to come out in the smashing rain with a child's umbrella and let us back in! Well it's never a dull moment when I'm around.
By the morning the wind and rain had ceased and left us with sunshine and breeze. We walked up the beach to have some breakfast and enjoy the view some more before heading back to the resort where I met the professional surfer who's family owned the resort. I needed little convincing and ...
Surfing San Juan, San Fernando La Union
Before we set off to San Juan, we spent a short while in the large mountain city of Baguio. We finally managed to get our visa extensions sorted without too much hassle! With an abundance of vegetables from the surrounding area, Baguio has a good selection of vegetarian restaurants. The closest one to our hotel was called, "Oh My Gulay" so we thought we'd give it a go - the ...
San Fernando/San Juan, a little heaven 4 surfers!
... cloudy we walk by the ocean; when it's rainy we read books and have massages ($12-hour); when it's sunny we hide in the safe corner of our hut or one of few bars/restaurants located on the beach. We are so blessed to be here! Our body can feel how much we slowed down and become one with Nature; our souls smile to the world and to life!
There are only about dozen hotels/resorts on the San Juan Beach, the prices ...

Archie Randolph Ammons (18 February 1926 – 25 February 2001 / Whiteville, North Carolina)
Rogue Elephant
The reason to be autonomous is to stand there,
a cleared instrument, ready to act, to search
the moral realm and actual conditions for what
needs to be done and to do it: fine, the
best, if it works out, but if, like a gun, it
comes in handy to the wrong choice, why then
you see the danger in the effective: better
then an autonomy that stands and looks about,
negotiating nothing, the supreme indifferences:
is anything to be gained where as much is lost:
and if for every action there is an equal and
opposite reaction has the loss been researched
equally with the gain: you can see how the
milling actions of millions could come to a
buzzard-like glide as from a coincidental,
warm bottom of water stuck between chilled
peaks: it is not so easy to say, OK, go on
out and act: who, doing what, to what or
whom: just a minute: should the bunker be
bombed (if it stores gas): should all the
rattlers die just because they rattle: if I
hear the young gentleman vomiter roaring down
the hall in the men's room, should I go and
inquire of him, reducing him to my care: no
wonder the great sayers (who say nothing) sit
about in inaccessible states of mind: no
wonder still wisdom and catatonia appear to
exchange places occasionally: but if anything
were easy, our easy choices soon would carry
away our ignorance with the world-better
let the mixed-up mix and let the surface shine
with all the possibilities, each in itself.

We all know the Unemployment Rate is rigged by the U.S. government. A much better indicator is the Labor Force Participation Rate. Historically, we see a negative correlation between the Labor Force Participation Rate and the Unemployment Rate.
Whenever the LFPR goes up (blue chart), we see a decline in the unemployment rate (red chart) and vice versa. This correlation has been true until 2008, where the U.S. government falsified the unemployment numbers and added hedonic adjustments. The red line should be going upwards since 2010 if we include discouraged workers, part-time workers, disabled workers, etc...
So, the key is to look at the labor force participation rate.

In the Chronicle of Higher Education, David Colander makes the case that economics is a popular major because it is "just right" - tougher than the other social sciences but not as tough as the hard sciences.
This is a thoughtful piece and well worth reading. The popularity of economics is a real problem for university administrators because economists cost a lot more than sociologists or even than physicists.
I, of course, have a few thoughts of my own:
The introductory bits are a bit silly. Economists never saw the market as the solution to everything in the past and they certainly do not now. There was never a time when economists modeled individuals as solely motivated by "greed"; agents have been maximizing utility, broadly conceived, since the birth of modern economics. Finally, behavioral economics does not somehow favor governments over markets. People in government exhibit the same "behavioral" tics as actors in markets; so while the research program to integrate more empirically grounded insights from psychology into economics is a promising one in my view, it is not one with an obvious political cast.
Turning now to the heart of the argument, a more careful distinction could be made between the difficulty of the material presented in a given discipline and the toughness of the grading in a given discipline. Economists are notable for resisting grade inflation relative to other disciplines (though we have not resisted it very well here at Michigan). That is a separate issue from whether or not we present more quantitative material, either theoretically or empirically. I suspect that grade inflation is important in and of itself as employers likely guess that a transcript full of A grades in the softer social sciences does not provide much information about ability or effort. Grade inflation is, of course, solved pretty easily by administrative action to set limits on the fraction of students receiving each letter grade in courses of various levels, as was done at Western Ontario (within economics) when I was teaching there.
Colander leaves out three other factors that also, I think, account for the popularity of economics.
1. Economics is sexy. This has two dimensions: the popularity of pop economics books like Freakonomics and the predominance of economists in the power hierarchy of Washington DC.
2. Economics has become more interesting to more students as it has broadened its reach to include topics, like the family and sports, that were previously treated only by other disciplines.
3. Economics is by far the most politically balanced of the social sciences. Students can speak freely in economics classes even if they are white males from middle class families. Students will find, at most schools, economics faculty who are democrats, republicans and, often, libertarians. This poltical balance makes economics stronger as a discipline and makes a broad range of students feel welcome to choose our major and intellectually engage the field.
I think the third of these factors is probably the most important but it would be interesting to investigate the question empricially.

There's nothing that will change someone's moral outlook quicker than cash in large sums.
Majority rule only works if you're also considering individual rights. Because you can't have five wolves and one sheep voting on what to have for supper.
I find it amazing that a "City Wide Sting Operation" only yielded 125 guns! I wonder how much time, effort, city resources and money it took to get 125 guns off the streets.
"To combat the problem of straw purchasing, McCarthy is proposing a law that would require gun owners in Illinois to file a report with the police every time one of their firearms is stolen, transferred or sold."
(?) What straw purchase problem?
I thought they all came from NY guns shows, according to El Bloomberg.

I do too. ONLY 125 guns? That's only a blade of grass out of a football field to what's really on the streets of any major city. That's probably only 4 city blocks gun supply, if that.
Most gang members in my experiences have at least 5-10 each, including full autos.

Well, in order to levy a violence tax the guns (and boolits) have to be legaly purchased. Seems the majority of the firearms siezed were stolen. Huh, imagine that.......

"You may think I'm pompous, but actually I'm pedantic... let me explain the difference."
"Carry the battle to them. Don't let them bring it to you. Put them on the defensive and don't ever apologize for anything."
My question is, what about the other guns they have seized in normal day to day work?
There should be far more data for them to use. The bias towards what they were trying to prove which led to apparently ignoring all guns seized prior to this intiative is interesting unto itself. The article shows that they were trying to prove the "straw purchase" issue was not a myth. Instead, it proves that the whole straw man farce to really be a farce.
At least for the month of August at any rate...
Seriously, who only looks at one months worth of data for a year round problem? Well, unless the truth for the other 11 months is inconvenient...
94 of the 125 guns were traceable. Less than half could be traced. Uh, 94 guns out of 125 would be 75%, but maybe in Obama's world 75% is less than half. Poorly written, with an agenda to boot - what else is new with the press?
How can a group of people consistantly come up with so many wrong answers?
Put them in Chicago.

With great power comes great responsibility.-Stan Lee
thousands of guns used in crimes in NYC have been traced, and the great majority came from other states.
point? most gun-crimes in NYC are not committed by legal gun owners from the city or the state.
other point? most guns used in crimes in NYC are brought into our city illegally.

Kindergarten Cop
Arnie is a cop and needs testimony of a drug scum-lord's missus, who has run away to Oregon with her kid. So Arnie goes undercover as a primary teacher to track her down through the brat. While he is romancing single parent fellow teacher Penelope Ann Miller, the pony-tailed baddie (Richard Tyson) and his monster mother (Carroll Baker) are well on their way to bring a little thuggery into the lives of the school staff and pupils.
Taking time out on the action-man front between Total Recall and Terminator 2, Big Arnie now followed up his commercial success in the very bland Twins (yes, believe it or not, Twins was a hit) by re-teaming with director Ivan Reitman for another soft-centred comedy thriller.
This time around he is John Kimble an Austrian somehow working as an hard-nut for the Los Angeles Police Department, who transfers out of his macho man surroundings into a kiddie movie suburbia when he has to go undercover as a kindergarten teacher. Although the first and last thirds are a densely plotted blend of humour and thrills, Kindergarten Cop sags desperately in the middle.
The initial joke of facing the man mountain from The Terminator with the one obstacle he can't possibly overcome — a classroom full of six-year-olds — fades almost instantly as the Macaulay Culkin-wannabe tykes proudly trot out in succession their personalised cute mannerism and Arnie miraculously but expectedly turns from gruff kid-hater to dewy-eyed super-teacher in the space of an aerobics montage.
With a heart of purest mush, Kindergarten Cop still manages to be generally entertaining, even for folk with an aversion to Aryan body builders or perky pre-teenagers, while some of the jokes are a reminder that Reitman was once a promising comic talent, and the thriller stuff benefits from a stronger-than-usual set of villains and a nicely-judged sidekick performance from Pamela Reed as Schwarzenegger's gourmet colleague.
As a one-off this could have inoffensively scraped by on thin charm alone. But don't forget kids, it gave rise to such monstrosities as Last Action Hero, Junior and Jingle all the Way…

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
IBM boosted its software portfolio for small and medium-size businesses with plans announced Friday to acquire Net Integration Technologies, a software vendor in Markham, Canada.
Net Integration Technologies, which offers business management tools, will be become part of IBM's Lotus division when the deal closes, which is expected to occur this quarter. Terms of the acquisition were not disclosed.
"We plan to use the technology to go after Microsoft in the small business server market," general manager at IBM's Lotus Software division, Michael Rhodin, said during a conference call about the acquisition. IBM could use the technology to compete with Microsoft's Windows Small Business Server, which provides collaboration, email and communication tools.
Founded in 1997, Net Integration Technologies' tools include NitixBlue server software, which the company offers bundled with IBM Lotus Notes client software. The company also builds custom hardware and the Nitix Operating System, which is based on Linux and bundles system management, networking, security and storage services.
When Lotus was acquired by IBM in 1995, it was a great channel company in touch with SMBs, Rhodin said. "Somewhere along the lines we lost touch with the roots," he said.
The Net Integration Technologies acquisition is also in line with IBM's process of realigning operations to better define and serve customers. The company recently restructured sales operations and is lining up offerings to match those changes, Rhodin said.
IBM did not comment on any potential layoffs or relocation of Net Integration Technologies employees.

The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

The Transcendental MurderIn an intellectual hamlet, century-old love letters give rise to murder The citizens of Concord, Massachusetts, never tire of their heritage. For decades, the intellectuals of this little hamlet have continued endless debates about Concord�s favorite sons: Emerson, Hawthorne, Thoreau, and their contemporaries. Concord�s latter-day transcendental scholars are a strange bunch, but none is more peculiar than Homer Kelly, an expert on Emerson and on homicide. An old-fashioned murder is about to put both skills to the test.�At a meeting of the town�s intellectuals, Ernest Goss produces a cache of saucy love letters written by the men and women of the transcendentalist sect. Although Homer chortles at the idea that Louisa May Alcott and Ralph Waldo Emerson might have had a fling, Goss insists the letters are real. He never gets a chance to prove it. Soon after he is found killed by a musket ball. The past may not be dead, but Goss certainly is. |

Review: The Transcendental Murder (Homer Kelly Mystery #1)
User Review - Alex - GoodreadsDidn't like this book much, although its erudition makes one feel moderately guilty for this judgment. Frankly, it's a boor, as was reading the nabobs of Transcendentalism themselves. Thoreau, Emerson, no thank you. Read full review

I am 39 years old and I have done everything to my poor hair since I was 18 and I have spent a lot of money in hair products like kerastase, klorane, sebastian,...you name it.
After so much money spent, I have discovered that my hair seems to like the cheap chemicals used in this product much better. Who knew!! Amazing!
I have used it today for the first time and I can't stop touching my hair.
I think the secret is to rinse the hair for a few minutes to get rid of all the product. I think most people don't rinse the hair that much and get poor results.
The dry ends look fantastic now and I am canceling the appointment I made to cut them.
Smell is okay and the bottle is great. The money part is fabulous. I will keep using it for now.

I have to agree with another reviewer - really this is a silicone product making your hair feel soft, but I don't really believe there are any long term benefits. The price is good, and short term results are achieved. I will finish the bottle, but won't repurchase. A+ for the new packaging, the squeeze bottle is perfect for the shower.

Can't get enough of this! Absolutely wonderful and made my hair feel amazing, silky, and luxurious after one use!! I'm getting 3 of these the next time I go to CVS!!
I normally don't write reviews but this product deserves it. This product is amazing. I have only used this once yet I can feel and see a dramatic change. After one use, my hair has become instantly smooth. I have never felt such soft hair before. It has been three days since I have used it and my hair still feels incredibly soft. The packaging is also great. No need to open and close a cap. No more accidental spills.
3 out of 3 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
This is a wonderful deep conditioner. It leaves your hair shines and feeling great I love it and use it once a week when my hair is feeling a little dry.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I have dry, dull hair that's quite long. I usually don't tend to my hair's needs, so I thought to look for a deep conditioner. I've heard rave reviews, and because of its low price, I thought why not? I initially thought this was great, as I do with all new products. It made it soft and smooth, but for some reason, it no longer does that. Maybe I'm not leaving it long enough. But nonetheless, I won't repurchase. The smell is unpleasant: artificial coconut.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
This just felt like a regular conditioner. I have tried another Aussie conditioner, and this just felt like the same stuff, but repackaged. It didn't change the way my hair felt at all.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
It just feels like a regular conditioner, not any kind of "treatment."

My hair loves this product. After deep conditioning with it my hair is left nice, soft and fully detangled. Definitely a repurchase for me. It also smells nice and is easily rinsed from my hair without leaving a waxy feeling.
MY HAIR: Medium thickness, black, straight, smooth, not very damaged.
Okay, so let me start off by saying that I am really low-maintenance with my hair. I have silky, smooth Asian hair and I rarely use heat on it. (occasionally, I will use a hairdryer though) I do wash it everyday though, so when the ends start feeling dry or brittle, I use this! I don't use it on my scalp because I don't want my hair to be greasy or weighed down. i try to use this product at least once or twice a week. After I use this deep conditioner, my hair feels so soft and smells SO GOOD. I love it so much. Another thing I absolutely love about this is the bottle! It's so convenient! You don't have to flip open a cap or anything, all you do is squeeze! It's lovely. And the smell is so heavenly; it smells just like coconuts! Yum.
I'm very happy with this product and will continue to repurchase. :)

A huge trove of documents has been released by prosecutors in the Trayvon Martin case. Among the biggest revelations so far is that the autopsy reveals Martin had THC in his system. But police said the shooting was "ultimately avoidable."
ABC News, which is digging through the documents, reports:
"The autopsy report shows traces of the drug THC, which is found in marijuana, in Martin's blood and urine.

"I am delighted that this generous gift to the Portrait Gallery will be in our permanent collection," said Martin Sullivan, director of the museum. "Secretary Mineta's service to this country and his leadership efforts are central to the story about Asian Americans in the U.S."
Born in 1931 to immigrant Japanese parents in San Jose, Calif., Mineta and his family were detained along with 120,000 Americans of Japanese descent at an internment camp during World War II. Mineta's career in politics began with an appointment to a vacant seat on the San Jose City Council in 1967; two years later he won the seat in his own right. In 1971, he was elected mayor of San Jose, becoming the first Asian American mayor of a major U.S. city. As a member of Congress from 1975 through 1995, Mineta co-founded the Congressional Asian Pacific American Caucus and engineered the passage of H.R. 442, the Civil Liberties Act of 1988—an official government apology for the internment of those of Japanese ancestry during World War II.
In 2000, President Bill Clinton appointed Mineta secretary of commerce, making him the first Asian Pacific American to hold a Cabinet post. In 2001, President George W. Bush appointed him secretary of transportation, making him the only Democrat in Bush's Cabinet and one of the few citizens ever to serve in the Cabinet of both a Democratic and Republican President. During the tragic events of Sept. 11, 2001, Mineta issued the historic order to ground all civilian aircraft, the first time this had been done in U.S. history.
Mineta retired from his Cabinet post in 2006 and in that same year was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the nation's highest civilian award.
"It is with great pride that we see Secretary Mineta's remarkable story of leadership and service honored in the Portrait Gallery," said Konrad Ng, director of the Smithsonian Asian Pacific American Program. "He represents the key roles that Asian Pacific Americans have played in U.S. culture, history and politics."
Mineta also served on the Smithsonian's Board of Regents from 1979 through 1995 and supported the establishment of the Smithsonian Asian Pacific American program in 1997. Currently, he is vice chairman of Hill & Knowlton, a leading global communications consultancy.
This commission was made possible through the support of benefactors George and Sakaye Aratani, Hill & Knowlton and Verizon Communications with additional support from many others. The portrait of Mineta is a part of the National Portrait Gallery's ongoing efforts to commission portraits of living sitters for its permanent collection.
