From Goodreads: Twitch, a stubbed limbed, white eye deformed carnival freak attraction is often abused. But, he harbors a dark secret…and his retribution is certainly far worse.
If you're looking for a quick read with some chilling horror mixed in this Halloween, then this is the novella for you! Scopel has written a very intriguing tale involving the carnival freak, Twitch, and the horrors that befall those who abuse him. This story is not what I was expecting, and I have to say that I am very impressed with the story and Scopel's writing as well.
This novella begins much like any other, but the creep factor quickly comes into play as characters are introduced and the story slowly begins to unfold. Some of the horror within the novel is quite gruesome, with blood spurting everywhere, burning blisters popping open, etc., but it adds nicely to this horrific tale of retribution as Twitch pays back all those who have ever muttered a degrading word his way. I think my favorite part about it all is the fact that Scopel decided to add some history and witchcraft to the mix, creating an ingenious background story for Twitch and his existence.
Scopel is a very talented writer, keeping the reader focused and engaged throughout the entire story. And, the best part is, he's strictly writes horror. So, hop on over to Amazon or Barnes and Nobel and pick up this quick read… and if you like it, check out his other work because, hey, it's Halloween, and we all need to be a little creeped out this hallows eve. Four stars.
I received a copy of this novella from the author in exchange for an honest review.
Happy Halloween!

He very seldom -- is on television but he's 1 of the central figures in the Romney campaign.
Despite big differences in personal style he and the governor are charting the campaigns course to governor.
Here is our power player of the week.
Couldn't have.
Two people could have more different backgrounds and two people that have more different world views.
Stuart Stevens his chief strategist for the Romney campaign.
And Wally rarely does interviews he may be the governor -- most influential advisor.
He is behind the decision to focus relentlessly.
On the big picture what he says is the dramatic contrast between the Canada.
During the campaign is that you've got someone who is uniquely qualified to turn around.
The economic mess that the -- in and very different views.
Where this country should be good it's -- Stevens likes to say the key is winning the election not winning the day that he does the apps for the campaign.
Forcing them to the consternation of some Republicans he is focused on Romney's agenda wanted to Romney -- Didn't want sometimes letting charges about the candidates taxes or business record go -- answered.
Majority of the countries -- of -- Barack Obama should not be -- that's why can't get above 50%.
And -- Mitt Romney if someone that they're getting to know better.
This is a very long process that -- -- an election.
And that hopefully the convention's going to be a positive part of that the critics say that you guys are not as tough.
As the Obama campaign.
Let's and I think there's always in these campaigns all -- this macho chest pounding of who's tougher who's this it's a bunch of sort of locker room trash talk this -- nothing to do.
With the greatest economic crisis since the depression.
And I think it's probably that quality that people -- about.
People who do campaigns.
Stuart Stevens has an unusual background for a political operative.
A Mississippi native he was a writer for TV shows like northern exposure and.
Where well -- gold leaf fan and a superhuman or.
Came across the -- that completely hand irrevocably change.
He's also into extreme sports like endurance cycling and skiing the last hundred miles to the North Pole.
His office that Romney headquarters is filled -- exercise equipment is that what you like about political campaigns testing yourself.
I like competition.
And I like to focus that it brings and I like that.
They are over at a certain point and that you know if you were successful and -- Stephens is not big on ideology.
He's worked on campaigns for Haley Barbour and Chris -- He tends to be cautious staying away from bold policy strokes and trying to make the campaign about the opponent.
When asked what's special about this race he remembers meeting people and Romney rallies and Iowa back in January.
That's what I want to see them expressing -- cities.
I want to see someone who's gonna change this country.
And that's extraordinary.
Moment and to feel that maybe you could contribute something to that.
This it was a very rare opportunity.
And -- it doesn't come along very often.
For all the excitement about Paul Ryan Romney advisors say there -- central message that the Republican Convention.
Will be why the president has failed and they -- man can do -- Which sounds like a contrast right out of Stewart Stephens playbook.

text: A curious case recently came to light in Jandli Kalan village of Haryana's Fatehabad district. One Nathu Ram was to marry Geeta. His sister was to marry Geeta's maternal uncle on the same day. But Geeta's father complained to the deputy commissioner of police that his daughter was just 15 years old. He said his wife and her family had conspired to marry her off in order that his brother-in-law get a bride under the 'barter system'. The authorities swooped down on Jandli Kalan village and stopped the wedding, but the family had a contingency plan. They produced Geeta's cousin Savitri as a replacement bride. But she turned out to be a minor as well. Under pressure, Geeta's relatives frantically searched for a bride within the extended family and finally found a 20-year-old.

The High Cost Of Meat: Your Health, Your Tax Dollars, Your Environment
The LA Times published an article called "The cost of steak" and the subtitle reads "Factory farms produce cheap meat, until you consider the rivers of sewage, the contaminants and the superbugs."
The good news:
"[T]he current 'factory farm' method for mass-producing meat poses so many threats to public health — from contaminated water supplies to deadly epidemics of E. coli E. coli – that the whole system needs to go." [...]
But not good enough. They don't mean the whole system, they mean the worst part of the system:
"[W]e won't be able to produce nearly as much meat as we used to, and a smaller meat supply means higher prices."
The more meat costs, the fewer people will buy it. More people will be de facto vegans. They might not believe animals deserve rights but they'll consume fewer animal products. And once people start acting like vegans, it's a lot easier to convince them that veganism isn't so hard.
However, if their consumption of animal products is reduced primarily because of the high cost, they'll likely increase their consumption whenever prices drop. They might even be willing to forgo basic animal welfare in order to live like rich people and eat meat.
The story continues:
"[I]f taxpayers are willing to support small and medium producers with incentives such as accelerated tax depreciation and tax credits, the cost to consumers might be further reduced."
Basically, we're going to see measures to give tax breaks to animal agriculture in order to encourage them to start acting more responsibly. Doesn't sound right, does it?

Where are the generators? Where are the temporary trailers? FEMA has done nothing. The Red Cross is supplying food and water. FEMA isn't supplying anything but tons of paperwork. |
Judged: 2 2 2 So what makes you think an intelligent blogger has more answers than the State Department? I agree with Steve who posted a comment about the article below it. "I think the Media has shown its in the tank for Obama. The questions are being fired at the wrong individual. Romney isnt president yet. So why dont we focus our questions and energy on why this event happened the way it did? Evidence is coming out that these attacked were planned, known about by both American intel and Egypt government. The Tweet came from the Embassy. Perhaps Romney ran with it He is an earlier rise like all good businessman. Our President skipped his Intel meeting before and after these events. You people need to start ask Obama some real questions for once." Obama dropped the ball. Plain and simple. Instead of addressing the issue and answering many still unanswered questions and the Media not focusing on getting those answers, Obama has been out campaigning and saying it's under investigation. He and his cheerleaders are hoping it will just go away. It's not going away. No matter what Romney says or doesn't say. |
Two evangelical friends said yesterday "I'm voting for Romney because he's anti abortion and gay marriage" That's it, in a nutshell. They have no concept of Mitt and his shenanigans, nor do they care that he's a liar. The Christian rightwing votes on abortion and gay marriage. Nothing else. |

But it's good to know that anonymous sources are a viable source of 'real' news. I'll make sure to swing that club asap. Who's going to complain? A FOXbot? I think not. |
Yahoo news?!?.....yawn. |
carol's busy right now trying to find a new definition of slander. |
Judged: 2 1 1 Yeah, just what America wants. a 70-year-old worn out hag in the White House. |
Judged: 2 1 1 Thanks! Glad to be back. Had a big weekend but things are back to normal just in time for the election - in only two more days. It's going to get crazy one way or the other. |
"GONE FISHING" Since: Oct 11 7,765 Location hidden |
Judged: 1 1 1 IDIOT I bet you would know where they were if they were up your ass.. unless Fox told you they weren't.. |
Judged: 1 1 1 The triangle that flared at the climax, with Chris Christie scampering away from Mitt Romney in the wuthering storm to cling to Barack Obama, the New Jersey governors brown eyes looking up trustingly into the presidents brown eyes, added a frisson to a jaundiced, spendthrift race. In novels and movies, its a powerful narrative: the problems of three little people, playing out against a charged backdrop.Casablanca.Gone With the Wind.The Year of Living Dangerously.Broadcast News.L.A. Confidential. Christie was unrepentantly swept away by his new pal, the commander in chief, who also likes to wear a jacket with his name and title sewn onto the lapel. So, I do pinch myself every day, Christie said at a news conference in Trenton on Wednesday.You know, like when I got on Marine One, Im pinching myself, believe me. Sandy and Bill Christies son on Marine One was not exactly what I thought was going to be happening with my life. A president who has taken a lot of abuse from Republicans one refusing to take his urgent calls on the debt deal, one yelling You lie! during a State of the Union address, many libeling his religion, race and nationality, all plotting to upend his plans was finally getting a little G.O.P. love. It was a jarring sign to Republicans that, despite Romneys humanlike performance in recent weeks, there is no deep tie, nor real respect, among many of those helping with his campaign, even men considered as running mates. Romney is idolized by his wife and sons, and in his close Mormon circle of friends, but beyond that, there is an intensity vacuum. In the final days, with Christie cheating on him, Mitt was left with Jeb Bush, who offered the faint praise to CBS News that Romney had been slow to respond to the presidents attack but had finally found his rhythm. Pity poor Jeb Bush, trying to drag another entitled, second-rate scion over the finish line in Florida while stifling his own dreams. He told a crowd that Obamas entire strategy is to blame others, starting with my brother, of course. But his brother is to blame for creating the chaos that swallowed much of Obamas first term. And for derailing Jebs career and blighting the family name. While Jeb was hawking Romney, W. was giving a speech at a confidential Cayman Islands investment conference. He should go check on Mitts cash still sunning itself in the Caribbean. http://www.nytimes.com/2012/11/04/opinion/sun... |

Judged: 1 1 1 Which is absolutely no different than two far lefties saying they're voting for Obama because he IS pro abortion and pro gay marriage (after he was against it, of course). So what's your point? Good morning, Lily. |

"What goes around, comes around" Since: Sep 08 5,957 |
Judged: 1 1 That doesn't absolve them of the responsibility for those deaths. If someone goes out drinking and kills a van full of family, they are still guilty of the deaths. If they leave the scene, it is still an attempt at coverup. and when they go to trial, they are still found guilty and still pay the price. Same difference.

Some pollsters have started to notice that independent voters, who until recently were leaning toward Mitt Romney, may be trickling back toward President Obama with just days until the election.
A Zogby poll finds Obama has picked up five points among independents, perhaps because of how he has handled the federal response to Hurricane Sandy. Meanwhile the latest national Public Policy Polling tracking poll shows Obama turning a longtime disadvantage with independents into a 49% to 44% advantage. Furthermore, a new national ABC News/Washington Post tracking poll shows Obama and Romney deadlocked with independents, at 46% each, matching Obama's best showing among that group in that survey and coming after Romney had reached a high of 58% just a week and a half earlier. Finally, the Politico/GWU tracking poll finds the two men essentially tied with independents just a week after Romney held a double-digit lead with them. |
Judged: 1 1 1 Slander is slander. Like accusing an opponent of a felony or accusing them of killing someone's wife wrongly. Getting answers to a dead ambassador - Well, you see the difference. |
Judged: 1 1 1 Too bad the last jobs report showed unemployment went up again. |

With sweet spots in bright colors or classic hues, we love these scarves in lighter, breezy fabrics — perfect for transitional dressing. In fact, we'd wear it just this way, paired with simple separates, distressed denim, and a military jacket, or boyfriend blazer. Just a hint of cool and a little girlie, effortlessly thrown on to take you beyond your basics.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) - Kansas City police say Chiefs linebacker Jovan Belcher moved behind a vehicle and shot himself in the team parking lot after he saw police arrive.
Police say Belcher shot and killed his 22-year-old girlfriend, Kasandra Perkins, at their Kansas City home Saturday before driving to Arrowhead Stadium, where Belcher committed suicide in the practice facility's parking lot.
A police incident report released Monday says police arrived at the couple's home about 7:50 a.m. and found Perkins on the floor of the master bathroom, dead from multiple gunshot wounds.
The report says officers arrived 10 minutes later at Arrowhead Stadium, and when Belcher saw police, he moved behind a vehicle and shot himself in the head.
Police also said that firearms found at Belcher's home were legally registered.

My wife, Cornelia, and I (but mostly me) probably erred by focus-grouping the name with friends. I had a total aversion to anything on that annual list of favorites published again recently by the government. No Jacob for us. Our five-year-old son, a "Batman" obsessive and clearly a

I also feared consigning someone to spend his life correcting others on the spelling of his own name. Whichever way we went---Eliot, Elliot or Elliott---he'd face the same challenge. I just hope that future TSA workers at airports, or cops pulling him over while driving in college, don't immediately assume something nefarious if official documents somehow get it wrong, too.
There's no shortage of people who've brought up former New York Gov. Eliot Spitzer, with a simultaneous raising of eyebrows. I worried about that briefly, then realized the benefits of a culture so deeply ignorant of its own history. And though I do hope Spitzer's future deeds overwhelm his miscues, that inattention will lessen my anxiety even if they don't.
Ask most high school kids about Lyndon Johnson, Richard Nixon, Ronald Reagan, even Bill Clinton, and you get a deer-in-the-headlights-look. The dismal state of civics instruction works in our favor on this score.

And then there's the reality, only disclosed by a good friend the night before the birth, that he would share a birthday with none other than the late Richard J. Daley, the quintessential big-city political machine boss. That's especially reaffirming.
With or without an Ivy education, he may not wind up overseeing thousands of cops, firefighters, patronage workers, lapdog ward committeemen and snow plows.
But if he proves to be tough, stubborn and shrewd, like "The Boss" of political lore, his parents could have done worse. Eliot, new love of my life, good luck.

Protein Shake Mix
1 person found the following review helpful
Posted by wandachavis From North Carolina on Jun 29, 2012
Purchased at iHerb
My morning ritual since gastric-bypass surgery in 2004 has included a chocolate protein shake. I have used several, but found ChocoRite about a year ago. I quickly made the switch from another very expensive protein shake... and this one even has fewer calories! Of all the flavors, Chocolate Fudge Brownie is my favorite! But, I keep this Peanut Butter flavor in the pantry for those days when I have a peanut butter craving. There is no vitamin taste to it and it mixes so smooth and easy! I travel frequently and use a ball shaker bottle to mix this in the hotel... then just pour it over ice. I love the price too here on iHerb! So glad I found this product... thanks to my niece!

Bought this as a milkshake replacement. Its creaminess and 'fattiness' really hits the spot and knowing its nutritional value just makes this all the more sweeter (pun intended) Very healthy and tasty shake. Recommended (:

So the additional 20% off sale is almost over. (It ends tonight.) I was happy to see its arrival (and sad to see it leave soon).
I was able to take advantage of both the reduced prices and the discount. Needless to say I bought myself several items that I am now waiting anxiously (but in a good way) for.
How did you all fair this time around in the sale? Were you able to snag any sweet deals? Or did you get frustrated that the items you wanted (in your size/color) weren't available (or worse- removed from your shopping cart before you had time to buy it)? Let us know how you made out! :)

I feel like I got some sweet deals this time around because of the free shipping codes I was able to take advantage of.
I was able to get the Polka-Dot Lana Top in Light Pewter, Size 0. I'm a little nervous about it being too big (I'm a 32B and 5'3"), but if it's a little too wide I'll just get it altered. I felt like this was a steal at $29.99 marked down from $88.
I was also able to get the Joelle Blouse in Gray Mist in size 0. I am more optimistic on how this will fit and I'm really excited to get it because I love the Joelle Cami that I already have. I thought this was a good deal at 20% off $39.99.
I also got the Marina-stripe dress in 0, marked down to $69.99. I'm really excited to get this dress because it's a great day dress for weekends and appropriate for work with a cardigan. I think this will fit properly, and if it's longer than knee length, I'll probably get it hemmed because skirts/dresses that go too far below the knee on me make me look shorter.
I also got the 3" stretch chino short in navy. I know the 0 will fit perfect because I already got this short in light pewter and it's my favorite J Crew short.
And I'm most excited to get the Katie sweater jacket in Navy, XS. I think it looks adorable, and although I'm worried it might be a bit big on me, I think it's ok because it's really a winter item anyway. I thought this was a steal at 20% of $39.99
Needless today I can't wait for all these items to come in off the waitlist! - friedwontonsJune 13, 2008 at 1:13 PM
I'm having mix feelings with this sale! Got some great stuff like Solid Katie sweater and the Slub Cotton wrap front tank, but what I really wanted was the Polka-dot Lana top has now been put on a waitlist. I have a bad feeling that it's out of stock =(
I do have a question about the Slub Cotton Wrap Front Tank. In the description is said the fabric is a "soft ringspun cotton with an addictive texture and a light, cool handfeel" Does anyone know if this is the same fabric or texture as the Heathered V-neck Slub Tee, because I LOVE LOVE that t-shirt.
Alex, not sure if this was discuss or asked before, but do how we can add links on the comment box with HTML codes? Thanks! - friedwontonsJune 13, 2008 at 1:19 PM
Stephanie, you sound like the same JCrew size as I am. I bought the striped Katie sweater for my mom a few month's back as a Mother's Day gift and I got her both the XS and S because I wasn't sure of the sizing. I tried on the XS and it's not big at all, so I think you will be fine with the XS. I also got that jacket as well in an XS. I am so jealous that you got the Polka Dot Lana Top in Pewter! I wanted that color but had to get the pink one instead.
ReplyDelete - friedwontonsJune 13, 2008 at 1:20 PM
Alexis, I just noticed I spelled your name wrong. So sorry!
ReplyDelete I was able to get a swim suit at 20% off (antibles enamel link halter/bikini - never seen it before, hope it's cute) and a super cheap beach tote. And thanks to the free shipping I got the glamour bikini top and bottoms I've wanted since last year, but I'm worried the top won't fit - probably should have gone with the D cup instead. I'm pretty "busty" but only a size 34 around, so I'm concerned it won't be appropriate for an upcoming family vacation :(
ReplyDelete- AnonymousJune 13, 2008 at 2:51 PM
It seems to me that giving out size information before you even get the item isn't very helpful. It's not like you can advise someone to size up or size down.
It comes off as just trying to brag about being skinny when you say you're nervous about a size 0 being too wide. I have the orange Candace jacket on the way - which I'm very excited about as a previous poster said it was a very nice orange! Also the jeweled posy capri sandals and the jelly flats in red... I hope they are not running too big since they only have whole sizes & I had to size up... and some hair accessories... looking forward to the box :o)
ReplyDelete- rosieposieJune 13, 2008 at 3:18 PM
It sounded to me like Stephanie was worried about the size 0 tank being too small in the bust -- not necessarily something we ladies generally brag about! I didn't take it as bragging about being skinny. As we all know, JCrew sizing can be iffy and sometimes a size in one garmet will fit differently than the same size in another garmet. I don't know that the post is giving out sizing information so much as just sharing recent purchases and maybe inviting someone else who has bought the same item to comment on the size. I like that we can all share information as well as just comment on things we bought or are thinking of buying. No offense meant to anonymous or anyone else here -- I just read Stephanie's post differently than anonymous did. I think it's good to encourage comments of all kinds and I hate to see people criticized for posting. It is hard to write a post exactly as you mean it to sound sometimes. I think Alexis has a great blog and I hope we can all enjoy it.
ReplyDelete - friedwontonsJune 13, 2008 at 3:34 PM
rosieposie, I defitney agree with your point of view about the comments Anonymous 2:51PM made.
One of the reasons I love shopping at JCrew is the variety of sizes it has. From petite to tall, to size 16 and up, and even shoe sizes from 5 to 12, I believe JCrew really has something to offer for everyone. Everyone has sizing and fit issues and it's good to know Alexis has set up a blog where I can ask questions about my Jcrew items. I never saw Stephanie's comment as bragging in anyway. I saw it as a JCrew fan who needed some advice from other JCrew fans and where better than to come here! Franko- I did not get that email so thanks for letting me and everyone else know about that! 25% off in stores is great! :)
Marisa- But you got credit! That is still a good deal. :)
Stephanie- Congrats all around! I am jealous with some of the things you were able to get. :) Let us know how Polka Dot Lana Top works out.
Friedwontons- I have a feeling you will get the top. They have been replenishing the sale stock quite well recently. So I have hope that you will have your top (and soon!) :) Also no worries on misspelling my name. If you read my posts, my grammar is all over the place.
As for linking: How to link with HTML
KP: The bikini sounds awesome! And I am also completely jealous you are "busty". You won't get much sympathy from me (a 34B gal). ;)
Anonymous at 2:51- I don't think she was bragging about her size. But if I was a size 0 I personally would be so thrilled that I would tell every person I met. ;)
Shoppinginseattle- Sounds like you made out well. As for the jelly flats, I have them too. I get compliments on them all the time. I do suggest that you by for $7 at Target the Dr. Scholls for her comfort insole with clear massaging gel. The jelly flats have no support unfortunately.
Rosieposie- couldn't have said it better myself. You rock! :)- AssataJune 13, 2008 at 5:13 PM
Well first I must say I love, love, love your blog. Just discovered it about two weeks ago when I was on the hunt for a free shipping coupon. It was a link from another website. I consider it a find...I have stored it in my favorites tab...and come here before I go to J.Crew.com.
So I sure did buy a bunch of stuff...three different shipments on their way...all at no shipping costs.Here is my list:
Irish linen skirt in Pale Almond
Belted crinkle swing skirt in Poppy
Metallic-stripe washed favorite tank in White
Solid washed favorite tank in Chocolate
Slub silk Zoey tank in Golden Moss
Candace jacket in Sweet Orange
Second Shipment:
Lilah dress in Soft Fushia
Polka-dot Lana top in Spiced Mustard
Metallic jacquard Zoey dress in Metallic Gold
Baird McNutt linen Georgia jacket in Bright Yellow
Lucaya fabric espadrilles in Paisley Moss
City-fit solid Addison trouser in Tawny Olive
Pepper suede flats in Bistro Orange
Alessandra patent peep-toe flats in Bright Yellow
Third Shipment(This Morning):
Bahia-print silk shirtdress in Botanical Green
Taffeta rugby skirt in Sour Lemon
Wow....yeah I definitely took advantage of the opportunity. Most likely some of it will go back....but I love to try things on a home...look at what I already have...think about how I will wear it and return it if I need to.
And with the free ship codes there is no reason not to....I just return to a retail store here in NYC.
The only thing is I am a teacher and would have loved to get the extra 15% off...I think I am going to call and ask for sympathy...they are usually great on the customer service end of things.
Everyone keep sharing your experiences....we are certainly creating a fantastic community here.
Assata Assata: The main word that best describes what I feel after reading your entry is: jealous! ;) You got some major great stuff! So completely jealous of you!!!
I got the Pepper suede flats in Bistro Orange too! If you don't mind please let us know how the pieces work for you, especially the Taffeta rugby skirt in Sour lemon. I thought that the skirt looked so lovely in the catalog, but was wondering if it would look as lovely in-person.I didn't purchase anything online because I knew I was going to my local J.Crew today...I really got some WONDERFUL deals, too! Like Franco said, they were having an additional 25% off, PLUS I was able to use the 15% Father's Day Coupon on my ENTIRE purchase, not just the menswear...here is what I got:
2 Pair Men's Boxers: $4.45 each
Pink and Green Critter Flip Flops:$3.18
Pink Striped Emily Blouse: $12.74
Polka Dot Lana Top in Bright Pink:$ 19.12
I would have gotten several of the Emily Blouses, but this was the only one in my size. I'm also thinking I should have gotten the Lana Top in Pewter, as it will transition well into Fall/Winter when worn with Black, but the Bright Pink is really pretty for Summer...especially here in Florida when Summer seems to be almost year round.
Stephanie: I also purchased the Lana Top in size 0, and I am 5'4"-34B/C...I tried on the 2 first, and it would have worked as well (had there not been the 0), since the fit is supposed to be a little fuller, so I think the 0 will probably work for you.:)
FriedWontons: the Bright Pink in the Lana Top is really pretty in person...bright but not neon bright. Also, I tried on the Slub Cotton Wrap Tank and LOVED it!!! I actually almost got it in the pink instead of the Lana Top, but knew that I was getting a better deal with the Lana Top, so opted for it, instead. The Slub Cotton Wrap Tank is the same material as the V-Neck Slub Tee, only more substantial...it really is dreamy to wear...I think you will be pleased when you get it. :)
Martha in Virginia: I looked for the Luau bag, but it wasn't available in my store, either...only just the Sand like online.
I didn't have to ask for any price matches to online, as everything was the same sale price, but with an additional 25% off, instead of the 20% off.
Alexis: I remember you mentioning that you also have a Phoebe blouse, but the fuller fit sometimes makes it hard to wear...I sometimes wear mine belted around the waist with a skinny belt or long scarf, so that my waist is defined instead of hidden. I have found this to work with the Lana Top I just purchased, as well.- AssataJune 13, 2008 at 6:25 PM
As soon as I get everything I will let everyone know!
Assata - frankoJune 13, 2008 at 6:47 PM
Sorry if this is a repost but my original one didn't show up for some reason.
Alexis – if you can please do a product review about the Pepper suede flats, that would be great! I'm so jealous that you got them AND in orange! That was the color I wanted but they completely ran out of my size :( - stephanieJune 13, 2008 at 7:01 PM
fabulousfloridamommy - I'm glad to hear about the Lana top! Can't wait for it to come :)
ReplyDelete Franko- I ordered the Pepper suede flats yesterday, so I will probably get them next Wednesday. I will definitely make sure to review them once I get them. :)
The flats look really great online so I hope they will also look great in person. I couldn't believe how much I liked the bistro orange- I just had to get it.
Franko, I have to also mention that I notice the supply of that particular flat has been replenished quite a bit in the past few weeks. Chances are you could still get your size/color. So you might still be able to get it after all. :)Hi Alexis! I was REALLY THRILLED with the deals I got...especially the Lana Top...that's why I opted to get it instead of the Slub Wrap Tank...would liked to have gotten more, but feel I showed great restraint, since afterall, it is Father's Day and NOT Mother's Day! ;) Plus my husband doesn't consider clothing to be good gift giving (totally OPPOSITE from me...I LOVE clothing as gifts), so I left with just the few items I listed previously.
Friedwontons: I was thinking of the Ringspun Cotton Femme Top for my comparison to the Slub Cotton Wrap Tank...I'm not sure about the feel of the V-neck tee...thinking it's similar to the Femme Top...either way I think you will really like the feel of the tank. :)- friedwontonsJune 13, 2008 at 8:01 PM
FabulousFloridaMommy - I am so jealous! Lana top for $20 less!!! I wish my JCrew had those amazing deals. Thank you for your help about the Slub Cotton Wrap Front Tank. I saw it in person when I was in the store and it looks great! Can't wait wear it when my shipment comes. You are correct about the feel of the Slub Cotton Wrap compare to the V-Neck Slub Tee. The feel of both shirts are very similiar except the V-Neck Slub Tee feels lighter and thinner. Either way I'm really loving JCrew's whole slub ringspun cotton slub tops.

As you can see, I am big on jewelry. I do wear it a lot. Big disappointment with shipment 2: I woke up really early to get a Chambray skirt on that day, and hooray, it was available in 2,4,6.. I am normally 2, but after reading the blog, decided to get it in 6 as was suggested. Paid for it ( showed in-stock), and after payment went through, it showed U/A. I called and they confirmed it's not available in any size except 14. I asked to do search in stores. They just got back to me today that it was not available anywhere. Huge disappointment!!!Looks like I'm a little late in commenting, but here's what I ended up getting from the sale:
Favorite fit everyday chino in khaki (#81391)... good deal at $32 and very versatile. My current casual khaki pants are too short, so I jumped at these!
Solid twist front padded bandeau and bikini bottom in crisp aqua (#95226 and #65967)... I'm excited about this because I love J.Crew bandeau bathing suit tops! Especially because they don't leave those trashy tan lines from straps.
Solid Katie sweater jacket (#92958) in navy... I normally wear a small top (and sometimes a medium in t-shirts) but I took a chance and got an XS in this. It looks fairly loose-fitting, so I hope it works!
Marlin-critter trunks for my fiance (#93241)Slastena- First, love the items that you ordered. Completely in awe about how much you scored! Well done. :)
Second, that sucks about the Chambray skirt. On a bright note, the sales in the past few mornings have shown the skirt available in many sizes. I am also sure there will be lots of returns from people like me and FabulousFloridaMommy, who bought three and are returning two. (I am definitely returning my size 6.) :) Hopefully you will get the one you want in the size you like. :)
Lynn- You are never "a little late". We always welcome comments. I love the bandeau bathing suit tops too! I think they are so simple and elegant at the same time. I also got the solid katie sweater in navy! Let us know how you like the sweater! :)- AnonymousJune 14, 2008 at 7:42 PM

Oops! Forgot about this little treasure:
Kingston Suede Driving Mocs 39.99!
-McShoppy :) I like to take advantage of their 20% sales (and the FS codes of course) to buy suits and the occasional flats. This time I bought the luxe cotton blazer and pants in navy. I'm addicted to JCrew suits (I'm beginning to prefer JCrew over BR for suiting). I just discovered your blog, and I'm in love (with your blog and the codes).

I think the point that is trying to be made here is that there was nothing said about the soldier that was killed by a terroristic act on US soil by a converted Muslim was not reported by the main stream media. We did hear about the abortionist being shot and the Haulocaust Museum killer...being described as hate crimes(which they are) so was that soldiers death...but not reported because now, after he got elected, no more christian Obama but now the muslim link that he has that no one could bring up during the election is now all fine...so that is why we are not hearing about the terrorist that killed one of our own AMERICAN soldiers! We are all americans and people don't start seeing it the way it really is no more America as we no it. remember the USSR(no longer) ....please do some research about what happened to that country and why. We are suppose to have balance of power Executive Branch, Legislative Branch and Judicial Branch...all of these are elected officials...the President has appoints a cabinet that is voted on by the Legislatures...but now the constitution that is supose to be preserved, protecgted and defended by the president is being ignored and trampled on. There should be no Czars....this is totally against the constitution of the United States of America. There are not suppose to be people that only report to the president that are not voted on by and for the people of this country....and what are these Czars costing us? He has a cabinet to take care of things like every president does. We should should not be aadding jobs paid by tax payers money and especially if the jobs are against our constitution. I thought the stimulous that was rairoaded through was suppose to keep the unemployment numbers from getting ot 8%...we are now in the double digits. I do not believe in political correctness(a tactic used to keep people from speaking out about what they feel)...I believe in freedom of speech. I do not believe people should look into a crowd of people in the U.S. to see how many red, yellow black or white there are rather how many AMERICANS there are. We are all americans adn people should not vote for someone because of the color of their skin...ever. They should vote for someone that will preserve, protect and preserve the constitution of the United States of America, because the men who wrote this great document knew that when they signed their names it meant death for them and their families and they believed in this document so much they signed knowing this! Americans are not arrogant American are hard working, giving, and caring people. Are American soldiers fought and died to stop a vicious tyrants from killing an entire race of people who were "TRULY" tortured in the Hollocaust funny thing is that I do not hear these people whining and moaning every time I turn around about how they are being treated with racism. Please read your history. We do not owe anyone an apology. Everytime there is any kind of natural disaster, famine, etc. we give more to the cause than any other nation! Obama was not brought up in the United States..his father was an African who abandoned him and his mother married an Indonesian who adopted him and he became Indonesian along with his mother and sister. He did not start school in the U.S. unti he was older and does not have the patriotism that most Americans do...it should anger you as a citizen that our President called you(Americans) arrogant, dismissive and derisive on foreign soil. The President of the United States does not bow to another countrie leader(his press secretary said he was bending over to pick something up)after all he did not bow to the Queen of England...I saw him bow..this is why someone who has dual citizenship is not suppose to be preident ...that is why he bowed and because he is Muslim.(which he denied vehemiently and no one could even say his middle name out loud during the election) His signature is on these stimulous bills no one elses!!!! But go ahead and don't think on your own...this is not anger speaking nor is this politically incorrect. These are facts that are being stated and if you see this as anger then please look at the facts! The relevancy is to all people including nurses. We still have freedom of speech for now anyway.
uhm....nursing? obama? where is the relevancy? This is stupid.
you are an idiot get real bush did all this crap and your blaming obama open your eyes dummy
A bit angry are we? I bet you did not fault Bush for all the problems that he caused this country. Obama inherited a huge mess from the former idiot war loving president. At least Obama seem to care about the country. It will take many years to clean up the toxic mess that our country is in. Obama is not resposible for the death of one soilder. The world is full of evil people and not one person can control that. Get over your hate on for Obama.
Ignorance is bliss. You cannot blame the president for everything that happens. What was everyone saying when Bush was in presidenceny heck he is the reason why thousands of soldiers are dead now or suffering from PTSD or why my husband is over there now. Obama hasnt even been in office a year. And it is going to take more than that to fix the crap Bush made. No one knew that this man would kill when he did. Things happen every day, people get killed every day through terriorism, automobile accidents, drugs, etc. Obama is not my brothers keeper. If you dont like the president that ok...fine. However he is our president you will have to accept just as I had to accept Bush sending me as well as all the other soldiers over to Iraq leaving our families fighting for ungrateful people. Get a grip! FYI just venting this is only to whom ever takes offense.
Angie: u are right about alot, thanks for speaking up, and by the way, inform your son for me: THANKS for his comittment to our country and for serving! Another shame that our president hasn't served or doesn't have enough sense to do the right things.If enough would speak up maybe we'll get somewhere and maybe he won't serve another term!
people dying everywhere and you point at Obama for the death of this one soldier. Do you have a solution to this problem ? Would you like every soldier in the US to have their own security guard too, so that we could sleep at night knowing that our soldiers are safe? What about the soldiers guarding them, how will you keep them safe. We might as well all join the armed forces. Wow, so much bitterness and anger. You must have had a CODE BROWN of a day. sorry.
To smschafli......................just wanted to say your totally right about the big brother thing. What we eat will be held against us. I remember putting on another topic that the food police will document every french fry or donut we eat. I'm glad you bought this up. I wondered if Nobama will be held accountable to the tobacco police? I bet he gets a free pass myself.
Hey smschafle, there are a lots of articles on this link on socialized medicine...........I think it will be a disaster for our country. Who created this 'cult'???? I think it was the mass media who dubbed him the messiah. Hey...............GOOD NEWS, HE WENT TO GERMANY AND FINALLY ADMITTED THERE WAS A HOLOCAUST BTW, This particular article was posted under security.
! < doing the golf clap for nobama >
When are the nurses, who are not caught up in the Nobama cult, going to move on the issue of socialized health care. If it goes through, we will be accountable to Big Brother for every morsal of food we put into our mouths that is not considered "healthy" or every deed we do that "might" cause us harm from biking to swimming...there is no end to it.
Isn't it sick that Immediately after the abortion dude................the one who aborted over 60,000 fetus's and Barack Hussein Nobama called and consoled the baby killer's family right when the news broke..............it took DAYS for a response regarding the terroristic murder of this Army private by that muslin jerk. Look, he cares so little about our safety he's thrilled to console a baby killer's family and not even acknowledge an act of terrorism against one of our soldiers. My son will be discharged with a medical discharge as a result of lung damage from a roadside bomb in south Bagdad. Yanno.................Nobama, Michelle Nobama, Nancy Pelosi, Congressman Murtha, Senator Dodd dont deserve my son's protection. I'm glad he's getting out of the army. My kid fought his discharge for monthes...............he wanted so bad to stay in the Army. Well, none of these jerks deserve my son selfless service. As a matter of fact when I speak to kids who go out of their way to ask me what I thought of their possibilities of a career in the Army...............I tell them if I had to do it all over again, I'd bribe my son not to do a career in the Army. The reason? Obama could care less about our safety. He's dropping funding for the missile defense system and North Korea is waiting to nuke us..............Our President has no history of service except to ACORN........................ptooey. For monthes California has been kicking out ROTC programs.................I say cool...........they are closer to Korea than WE are. Sorry, I have friends who are probably in danger, and I'm sad. California is bankrupt probably, and many school systems are dropping rotc programs..............and Berkley HATES recruiters.......I herad that they wont let them on the campus. Michelle did the graduation speech for I think it was Berkley. Im sure she felt worse obout the murder of the baby killer than the private who was shot/murdered at the recruiters office in Arkansas. Nope................I do NOT think any of us are safe because both he and his wife could care less. He spends more time jetsetting on our tax dollar doing the 'IM SORRY, AMERICA SUX SPEECHES' to the globe................Egypt, and could care less about Israel and our ties with them.
Aisha, ditto! Your such a sweeheart!
Angie, I just love you!!!
Um.....................there is an area on NL to contribute 'news'. You could do it too if you want to.
Relevance to nursing?

A cure would stop MS in its tracks, prevent new symptoms, stop - not just slow - progression, and hopefully even reverse damage. There are four basic types of MS with all kinds of variations, and a real MS cure would address all of them. That is an ambitious goal. So are we close to a cure?
Dr. Jean Martin Charcot identified and defined multiple sclerosis as a disease in 1868. The first effective pharmaceutical treatment was not available until 1992, 124 years later. Now, just 20 years after the first drug, we have options including oral applications as well as many clinical trials developing even more. All of these drugs are intended to reduce the number of attacks, often up to 50%, and to slow progression, but there is not yet a valid measurement for progression. This sounds like a great treatment, but not quite a cure. More research is underway.
Based on tests using mice, the answer to a cure may well be found in genetics. Just a few months ago, I explored the question: Is MS Hereditary? The answer seems to be yes, and some specific relevant genes and genomes have already been identified. This information leads to exciting research projects based on the idea that one key to a cure is indeed genetics.
Then there are other exciting possibilities: CSVII. stem cells, and even repairing damaged myelin. Is there a possibility for a cure here?
Dr. Paolo Zamboni has developed an amazing treatment that has been touted as a possible cure. MSers flocked to treatment centers to take advantage of this "cure."
His wife Elena developed MS in 1995, inspiring Zamboni, a vascular surgeon, to research the disease. He found a vascular condition he thinks may be one cause of MS. It is my understanding that although MS is not a vascular disease, this treatment does make some people feel much better, and for some it actually eliminates new symptoms for years. But it is not a cure.
Until more trials are completed, perhaps we should have cautious optimism for Dr. Zomboni's treatment. He joins the National MS Society in encouraging MSers to continue their current treatment until CCSVI has been proven beyond doubt.
Stem Cells
Remember how MSers anticipated stem cell therapy? A small trial in Chicago tested 23 men and women with early RRMS who did not respond after six months of using interferon beta. Tests took stem cells from the patient's own fat tissue or bone marrow. Three years after transplantation, 17 had improved by at least one point on the disability scale while none had deteriorated. That sounds like promising results to me, even for such a small trial. It won't be a true cure until it also addresses MS types beyond early RRMS. A larger trial for this one-time transplantation of stem cells is underway.
Repairing Myelin
The idea here is not only to stop it from happening again, but also to reverse damage already done. The Mayo Clinic is collaborating with international groups to identify and promote natural repair. There are two laboratories, one working with animal models and the other studying human pathologies, developing therapies to restore myelin. Because it is natural, there are almost no side effects. That sounds good, but no cure here either.

Reffitt was pronounced dead at the scene.
Police say the crossbow shot, along with pre-existing medical conditions, caused her death.

Happy Birthday Claire!
With Claire and Mika (center) at the SOMO Bar (Rue Montmartre, 2nd) to celebrate another February birthday. Doesn't look a day over 29, does she?! SOMO is owned by the same folks as the Lizard Lounge over in the Marais (Rue du Bourg-Tibourg), so there's a similar crowd of 25-35ish "trying to look casually snazzy" Parisians and Anglophones. Up in the oddly tiled tower is a DJ we can barely see, but the music is good so who cares? Being a holiday in Paris, most of the town is off skiing, so we could actually find seats at the bar and watch the girls make eyes at the cute Danish bartender (who was pounced on immediately by Claire's tall, blonde Danish friend...making the most of an unfair advantage!)

Here we have it folks, the STUPID public comment of the day uttered by none other than Boss Moss himself when asked an irrelevant question by Jeff(soft ball(s))Lytle
Lytle: "Let me ask you about North Naples Fire Department. They've decided to suspend impact fees for a year. Good idea?"
"I don't know how you justify charging a person today an impact fee and they're not charging somebody else an impact fee for a year. To me that sort of upsets the balance on the market in some way."
Its simply Boss Moss, if you cut the cost of new construction developers will scramble to get plans, permits and workers on sight to fling some dirt and construct some construction which in turn will increase the TAXABLE Value of currently vacant land or residential lots. That in turn will increase the TAXABLE value of that previously vacant land.
What have they given up by suspending the impact fees/TAXES? Well not a whole lot because the laws are very strict when it comes to using impact fees/TAXES, they could use it for the fire station but not for the payroll to staff it.
Did he understand the question??? Was he afraid to give a straight forward answer??? Or is he just a MORON?
I personally think Boss Moss is a pretty bright guy "BUT" he has ventured into the deep end and seems to have forgotten his water wings. It seems he has just counted on the ridiculous assumption that nobody really gives a crap what he thinks, which is quite true or that we are all just to dumb or preoccupied with other stuff to even pay attention to his blabbering about something that is for the most part NONE OF HIS BUSINESS!!!!!!!!!
Lytle should ask him whats behind the ANGRYTAXPAYERS beef with the Lobotomy Brothers and his two whipped dogs that are kenneled down on Riverside Drive. Now that would be something I would watch!!!!

Attorney and Stanford graduated Abe Gupta was appointed to the Dublin City Council at a special meeting Tuesday night.
The council voted 3-1, with councilman Kevin Hart dissenting, to appoint Gupta and he was sworn into office after the vote. He takes Rep. Eric Swalwell's old seat and his term runs through 2014.
He beat out nine other applicants for the position, including Dublin Planning Commissioners Ramit Kohli and Tara Bhuthimethee and three candidates who ran for City Council last year, Doreen Wehrenberg, Anita Carr and Shawn Costello.
Gupta is a Dublin resident and according to his LinkedIn page, is a trustee for the Alameda County Mosquito Abatement District and a law professor at San Francisco Law School.
A reception is being planned for Mr. Gupta prior to the commencement of the March 5 City Council meeting. The public is invited to attend.
Are you pleased Gupta was appointed to the council? Would you have preferred someone else? Tell us in the comments section.
