Dan Patrick and Todd Staples kept up their brawl in the lieutenant governor's race Monday. At issue were scorecards on legislators compiled by Michael Quinn Sullivan, a conservative activist much feared around the Texas Capitol.
It turns out you can't totally predict from his group's scorecards which way the endorsements will go.
Take the comptroller's race. The two best-funded Republican candidates to succeed retiring Comptroller Susan Combs are Sen. Glenn Hegar, R-Katy, and Rep. Harvey Hilderbran, R-Kerrville.
If you study past legislative scorecards of Sullivan's fiscal hawk group Empower Texans, the grades in biennial sessions from 2007 through this year for Hegar are as follows: F, C+, D, C-.
Look at Hilderbran's, and you see this: C, C+, C+, D.
From that, it's not at all obvious that Empower Texans' sister group Texans for Fiscal Responsibility endorses Hegar — though it did, on Oct. 16.
"We endorsed Hegar based on his record," Sullivan told me in an email. He cited Hegar's authorship of a 2007 bill that required the comptroller to post online the state's expenditures, including contracts and grants.
"That's … one of the most important roles of the comptroller," Sullivan said.
Sullivan said endorsements involve taking a look at the bigger picture, not just his group's "Fiscal Responsibility Index."
"We endorse based on the job being sought, not necessarily on the job held," he said.
Sullivan noted that Hegar and Hilderbran filed competing bills over how to deliver a smallish tax cut to Texas businesses earlier this year, and he preferred Hegar's approach, which involved across the board rate cuts rather than Hilderbran's primary focus on ending some classification inequities. In May, we wrote about the two future rivals' battle here.
"Bottom line: Hegar is competent. Hilderbran is not," Sullivan said. (Hilderbran recently dismissed the group for being inconsistent and suggested its endorsement would be inconsequential.)
On Thursday, Staples gleefully noted in a press release that Patrick, one of his GOP opponents in the lieutenant governor's race, got a D minus from Empower Texans in 2007. Texans for Fiscal Responsibility has endorsed Patrick.
Staples, the current agriculture commissioner, delighted in broadcasting the low mark.
Sullivan explained how it came about. Patrick, a Houston conservative radio talk show host turned state senator, had his first session in 2007. That was the Empower Texans scorecard's inaugural year and "we didn't have many votes from the Senate," Sullivan said. He said the group wanted to give fair warning of which votes would count — and did. It just didn't warn about very many, he said. The highest Senate grade was a C+ and about three quarters of GOP senators got an F.
"Yes, 2007 was a tough-grading year," Sullivan said. He said, though, that Patrick voted against that year's "bloated budget" and as a senator has protected taxpayers. Staples' legislative service ended just as the Empower Texans scorecard began, he noted. If there had been an Empower Texans keeping track in 2001 and 2006, Staples would have gotten some very bad marks, Sullivan said.
Staples, apparently deciding to have some fun with Sullivan, put his snarky release about Patrick's D- grade on his "Politician Dan" website here.
Patrick campaign consultant Allen Blakemore came roaring back on Monday. His release accused Staples of misleading voters.
Sullivan "was quick to rebuke the fact-challenged claim," Blakemore wrote. He then included some quotes from Sullivan, who noted that Patrick's D- in 2007 was "the fourth highest rating of all 31 senators."

California Gov'nor Jerry Brown says it don't work. Poachin' that is. Maybe he's not aware ol' Rick Perry is pretty mean when it comes to puttin' down some onery coyote with murderous intents on his pooch. 'Course no one ever saw the act'al corpse.
But still, ya' gotta take Gov'ner Perry serious-like when he says he comin' after ya'.
Take this new commercial aimin' at gettin' California biz'ness. Or don't, but here it is 'ennyway.
Now the Gov'nor is really serious about this. He's spendin' 24,000 dollars of what I'm thinkin' is tax payer money on this ad. I ain't too sure 'bout that, though. Still couldn't they use that money for sumthin' else? Like makin' sure Gov'nor Perry gets all that double dippin' money he deserves. He's a hard workin' man. Payin' for some of them outta state trips he's always goin' on. Them security guys?
And there ain't no callin' for Gov'nor Jerry Brown commentin' on our gov'nor's personal habits either. That just ain't nice. That comment 'bout Rick Perry producin' "barely a fart". There ain't no doubt he's so full o' hot air he could fart louder than anyone in the whole state. Why, there ain't no doubt he'd win any fartin' contest against that wimpy ol' California gov'nor.
And as far as bein' biz'ness friendly, you cain't get any more friendlier than here in the Great State of Texas. Jus' ask Amazon. I heard they just opened shop up there in California. Makes ya' wonder if they might just be thinkin' 'bout movin' outta here. They may be kinda sore at Gov'nor Perry makin' 'em collect all that sales tax.
But I ain't sure 'bout that either.

Buried Treasure: Below UA Streets Lies One Of The Nation's Great Mineral Collections
by Logical Lizard on Aug. 20, 2009, under Geology, Hidden Tucson, Meteorite Science, TechnologyThe first known mention can be found in the U of A Register from 1892, which rather grandly states the university will "make the Museum of Geology and Mineralogy an adequate representative of the ores and minerals of Arizona, as well as a place for the deposit of everything illustrative of the practical workings of the mines, mills, and furnaces."
Curatorial Specialist Sven Bailey patiently studied the history of the University of Arizona Mineral Collection and recorded the five other temporary homes it occupied before relocating to the spacious and airy basement of the Flandrau Science Center.
If you walk into the Science Center, past the planetarium, maybe pausing for a moment to admire the Mars Wall, and then scamper down two long flights of stairs decorated with brightly painted murals, you will come upon a geologist's dreamscape. The main collection comprises some 19,000 specimens, plus 7,000 micromounts. Of special delight to me was the mysterious Silverbell iron meteorite. Discovered in 1939, somewhere northwest of Tucson, the exact find location has been lost to science, and the UA Mineral Museum has the largest piece in the world. In addition, I was intrigued by a mock-up of the famous Tucson Ring meteorite, appearing as it did back in the 1800s during the least glamorous part of its life (it was once used as an anvil in the Tucson presidio, and has now been promoted to the rather magnificent centerpiece of the Smithsonian's meteorite display in Washington, D.C.).
"Our collection is actively used for research, and the curator is currently building a new mineral database," Sven tells me. He is a tall, soft spoken, and thoughtful man. He seems wonderfully at ease in the beautiful and elegant underground collection; he could almost be the custodian of a secret treasure mine. "Some of our meteorites and minerals are studied by Planetary Sciences," he continues. "And they are also available for students. Some university instructors lead field trips to the museum and assign extra credit." Now, that's my idea of school Extra credit for looking at rocks!
The mineral museum welcomes school programs, and children of all ages have enjoyed the remarkable collection with a concentration of students from First through Eighth Grades. Last year over 100 school groups visited the Flandrau and the mineral museum, and that translates into a lot of kids getting a first-hand look at geology, mineralogy, mining history, and meteorites.
The museum is also open to the general public and Sven and his colleagues are available to answer mineral-related questions. For many years, Senior Curatorial Specialist Shirley Wetmore, served in a "first contact" capacity with visitors who stopped by with samples hoping they had found a meteorite or rare mineral. Shirley was universally liked, did a great deal to further the public's understanding of rocks, minerals, and meteorites, and recently retired from the museum.
Sven is a hard working man, handling the equivalent of several different jobs at once. In addition to showing visitors around and answering questions, he is engaged in an ongoing project to photograph the mineral collection (see photos on this page), keeps the website up to date, and helps design and coordinate signage and special exhibitions.
It always feels good to see people happy in their work and Sven is especially enthusiastic when he leads me into a back room, opens an impressive safe, and produces a genuinely staggering specimen of leaf gold. Found on the Crystalline-Alabama Claim in Jamestown, California, it was recently acquired by the museum with the rest of the Hubert de Monmonier collection, a significant group of minerals, never before seen in public. Approximately 870 pieces, including some very important specimens, and 300 books, were donated by the de Monmonier estate. A stunning exhibit of some of the finest pieces from that collection is currently on display in the Flandrau's main exhibition space.
So, doesn't all of this sound great? A world-class mineral museum with active ongoing research programs, rare meteorites, beautiful displays, a friendly, enthusiastic and knowledgeable staff keen to interact with, and inform the public. Too good to be true? Almost. Due to budget cuts the University of Arizona Mineral Museum is only open on Fridays and Saturdays, and to school groups by appointment. If the feared permanent closure of the Flandrau Science Center does take place, what will become of this extraordinary collection?
117 years ago, UA set out to build a mineral collection that would reflect the epic geologic and mining history of Arizona. They succeeded admirably. Now this great collection is open for only two days a week, and even that may be nothing but a temporary stay of execution. After six years with the museum, the talented Sven Bailey is moving on to a new job unconnected with the university. "Will we miss his expertise terribly," said Executive Director Alexis Faust. But with the museum and the Science Center facing an uncertain future, who can blame Sven for moving on? Maybe if the Flandrau had a sufficient operating budget he would have stayed.
In a recent letter to Tucson Weekly, former associate director of the Flandrau, Joe Ruggiero, shared this fine sentiment: "For 35 years, through good times and bad, Flandrau provided this community with some measure of wonder, a place where one could come face to face with phenomena and see the beauty of the sky explained in vivid detail."
Alexis, the current director states: "We have wonderful resources here. There should be a conduit for that information to get to the people of Tucson, the taxpayers."
The Flandrau Science Center and the UA Mineral Museum are part of that conduit. The mineral museum is an extremely important and unique educational and historical resource. Allowing it to be closed, and therefore lost to the people of Tucson, would be a crime against science.

Every fall, the Fort Lewis College Environmental Center works with local Durangoans to collect and harvest apples in the region. This year, they collaborated with local ice creamery Cream Bean Berry to create apple ice cream!
There are good things growing on campus. And you can see some of that goodness just north of the Center of Southwest Studies. There, you'll find a quarter-acre garden offering up a widely varied harvest of home-grown organic bounty. There is also a three-season greenhouse, several hoop houses and cold frames, a compost facility, and a 100-tree dwarf apple orchard nearby.
What do you get when you put a professor and seven students on a 55-foot houseboat on Utah's Lake Powell to pick up trash for five days? You get good times, great exploring, some personal mentoring, and lots of deeper understanding of topics such as environmental science and cultural resource management. Oh, and cleaner public lands.
Going green has been a way of life at Fort Lewis College for a long time -- it's just comes naturally when you live in a place as beautiful and inspiring as southwestern Colorado. And this summer, the FLC campus has gotten even greener, with several energy- and money-saving projects underway.
Fort Lewis College has been actively improving its sustainability since becoming a charter signatory of the American College and University Presidents Climate Commitment, in 2007. Since then, the colleges' Sustainability Action Plan has led to the construction of "green" buildings, introducing local foods into dining facilities, expanding on-campus recycling, prioritizing recycled products in purchasing, upgrading irrigation efficiency, the installation of a new composter for on-campus dining, and more.
In its April 2012 issue, Outside Magazine once again recognized Fort Lewis College's hometown of Durango as a great place for adventurous people. This time, Durango was named Runner-Up Best New Adventure Hub, second only to Lake Wanaka in New Zealand. The article mentions several of Durango's favorite multi-season activities: road and mountain biking, trout fishing, mountaineering, kayaking, and downhill and Nordic skiing.

- With Mayo Clinic health education outreach coordinator
Angela Lunde
read biographyclose windowBiography of
Angela Lunde
Angela LundeAngela Lunde is a dementia education specialist in the education core of Mayo Clinic's Alzheimer's Disease Research Center at the Abigail Van Buren Alzheimer's Disease Research Clinic in Rochester, Minn.
The transfer of information about dementias, as well as understanding the need for participation in clinical trials, is an essential component of the education core.
Angela is a member of the Alzheimer's Association board of directors and co-chair of the annual Minnesota Dementia Conference. She is a member of the Dementia Behavior Assessment and Response Team (D-BART), a multidisciplinary outreach service assisting professional and family caregivers in understanding and managing difficult behaviors often present in dementia. She facilitates several support groups, including Memory Club, an early-stage education and support series, and more recently, helped to develop and now deliver Healthy Action to Benefit Independence and Thinking (HABIT), a 10-day cognitive rehab and wellness program for people with mild cognitive impairment.
Angela takes a personal interest in understanding the complex changes that take place within relationships and among families when dementia is present. She is particularly interested in providing innovative and accessible ways for people with dementia and their families to receive information and participate in valuable programs that promote well-being.
"Amid a devastating disease, there are tools, therapies, programs and ways to cope, and it is vital that families are connected to these resources," she says.

Negative thoughts make Alzheimer's caregiving harder
By Angela Lunde

This morning I went to teach a yoga class at a local studio. Each month, The Karma Yoga Project offers a yoga instructor the opportunity to guide a class for the community with a free will donation collected for a charity or non-profit. The Alzheimer's Association was my non-profit of choice. I arrived shortly before the 10:00 start time only to discover that is was actually an 8:00 start time.
Almost before my next breath my mind raced: "Am I a complete idiot, how could I be so irresponsible?" Followed by my cynical self thinking, "Well, given the week I've had wouldn't you know something like this would happen." Like an automatic switch, my mind was drawn into negative self talk. Remember, our mind believes what we tell it, so in those next several minutes I felt miserable and defeated.
I bring this up because last time we talked about setting intentions and daily affirmations. In this situation, it didn't matter what my intention was, or the daily affirmation I was particularly mindful of. Something bad still happened. Or so it felt.
Similarly, Deborah replied to the last blog with this: "I do try to have a positive attitude but I have to tell you just telling yourself each morning that this day is going to be really good does not change a thing." And I have to imagine that many of you may feel like Deborah — believing it to be an impossible task to think positive when you're living the life of a caregiver. Bad things will happen even with the best intentions.
Whether or not you understand or buy into the power of intention and affirmations, maybe we can all agree that there is a connection between what we think and how our thoughts make us feel. Our thoughts shape who we are. Behind every situation there is a thought, and how we perceive that situation and respond determines how we cope, or not.
In other words, the stress you feel is not only the result of your personal caregiving situation but also your perception of it. Caregivers are uniquely susceptible to unhelpful thought patterns. One example is that of over-generalizing. Let's say the one you're caring for is repeating the same question over and over. Negative thinking would be, "When is this going to stop? This will go on all day. No one understands how difficult this is."
Positive self talk on the other hand sounds more like, "This doesn't go on all the time. After a while he usually gets distracted by something else. I can remain calm and patient for a while longer. This is a symptom of his disease."
The fact is that we can control our thoughts and our mind believes what we tell it. So, when we channel thoughts in a more positive direction, things are better. More often than not, we gain a sense of control and the resilience to cope more effectively with the stress and demands of caregiving.
Why is this concept of positive self talk, affirmations, and perceiving the glass half full rather than half empty one I speak about frequently? Because these ideas and tools give us the power to change what we can change. We can't change many of the realities of Alzheimer's, but we can change our thinking and that changes how we feel. Perhaps most importantly, you may find you become kinder and gentler with yourself.
So, how do you begin the practice of fighting off these negative thoughts? First off, know that negative thoughts happen automatically — remember my immediate negative thoughts about the yoga class. The key is to become an expert in identifying your negative thoughts quickly and not let them linger and find refuge in your mind.
Instead of fighting with your negative thoughts, just be aware and observe them. Don't get sucked into them. Recognizing that you are having negative thoughts is vital. It's at that point that you can choose to replace negative thoughts with positive ones and take control of how you feel.
As I got into my car after leaving the yoga class I never taught, I thought to myself, I can make mistakes, I'm human, I'm not perfect and I'm OK with that. Later that day, I received an e-mail from the organizer of the Karma Yoga Project. He wrote that he found it refreshing to know that I could make such a mistake — feels good to know we all share such imperfection he said.
"It is neither good nor bad, but thinking makes it so."

According to a report on Apple Insider, Apple CEO Tim Cook paid a visit to Valve headquarters today in Washington, and suggests he and the firm's Gabe Newell could be cooking something up. These leads many to speculate numerous reasons for such a visit and what the duo could be discussing, such as the "input, output, and platform hardware" Valve is currently hiring for, maybe even the possibility of Steam integration with AppleTV. Then again, it could have just been a friendly visit. Put your speculation hats on and start guessing. Thanks, Kotaku.

I love Tino, but my God is he BAD in the booth. If he talked any faster, I wouldn't understand a word he said. As it is, it takes me a second or two to process what just sped out of his mouth, Evelyn Wood style. I was going to start a "Tino Said What?" thread, but I can't understand what he's saying enough to comment on it. Maybe it can be a literal "Tino Said What?" thread and we can come here to translate his super-fast speaking style.
I like Paulie, so I'm really torn this series. Turn on John and Suzyn and miss Paulie, or leave on Paulie and put up with Tino.
If this YES gig doesn't work out, Tino could be one of those speed readers for the fine print in commercials.

First guest tonight can attest firsthand to the lack of urgency and accountability and it in Washington.
Please concerning the sequester joining us now former senator Scott Brown now -- -- news contributor aren't great to have you with us.
Let's none of that let us turn to this.
This horror show spectacle that the president is trotting out seemingly every person in the administration.
Of being given the opportunity -- from a cameras and try to scare.
The American people what do you make up.
-- the a broken record strategy this is something that I've heard for the last three years they.
They put something -- -- give -- a great title but then when you read the billion find out it's not what it's meant to be we did sequestration appear remember because we're trying to avoid default.
And now make sure the credit rating -- rating agencies didn't lower our credit rating.
I came up with what they consider draconian cuts Harry Reid and Mitch McConnell said -- by the way don't Mario gonna put -- a select middle.
Thoughtfully and judicially spread these cuts all over you know over evenly and that didn't happen bottom line is listen this has been up for a year.
And I am I and others have said let's get to a let's get -- -- they've done everything but this there on vacation that they should have come back last week if it's that important.
I don't think it gets -- I hope I'm wrong but there -- a lot of people depending on obviously some type of certainty and stability.
There there is there an interest things -- difference of view within the Republican Party.
Speaker Boehner in his op Ed this week.
-- acknowledge that there would be significant disruptions as a result of sequester going into effect.
Yet most of the Republican Party says this is what we need we need to see you spending.
We need to take care -- -- even -- -- across the board and arbitrary.
There is a real division right now artwork and the Republican Party apparently is that right.
Well I haven't heard so much about let's just make the cuts in and forget about it I'm I'm in the Pentagon going to be serving next week again.
And -- -- colonel and I -- -- obviously that National Guard bureau right and that's all they talking about the very concerned not only for the people that are going to be laid off those civilian contractors.
But the -- for the men and women of the serving in the people in the all all up and down that supply chain.
Having that level of regulatory and now tax and payment security.
Bottom line is out doing in the cuts of course we need to make the cuts but.
The president's insurance cards and Harry -- in charge of the senate do you think that that they were in charge of very thing apparently we're not.
The president needs to show leadership the house already sent forth some proposals they're sitting on Harry's desk he's done absolutely nothing.
To bring this to a head he'll put a good bill -- With a great title it won't be what we want and -- force you to do -- and then by the way blame the Republicans when it doesn't happen.
And that then they'll they'll get back to it after after that obviously the march 1 deadline.
Of course military pay will not be affected by sequester -- there will be correct but the prospect of possible rolling furloughs one day a week.
The -- affect -- civilian employees perhaps great number of them.
In that rolling furlough situation if it does in fact occur.
The idea of -- sequester.
Turns out have been if it seems to me and monumental.
Misjudgment on the part of both parties and as president.
And I can't believe frankly that we're sitting here approaching march 1.
And neither the president nor the Republican leadership -- said you know this was a really stupid idea and the only people with the power to correct and massively ignorant device that we created.
And the and the repugnant results would be us and we're going to take that opportunity and be leaders and responsible right now.
Why isn't such a thing occurring to the president of the United States who is as you point out as you.
Return to service.
For the country next week he's the commander in chief for crying out law.
But he needs to show leadership and you're absolutely right bottom line is the people were elected.
-- there and washing their elected to take those tough decisions they were elected to make sure that these types of things don't happen in the putting partisan politics and their own personal interest.
And the ability to finger point.
Ahead of our country's interest -- not acting as Americans first.
And making sure that we can step back from this issue because don't forget we've already cut a half a trillion from the military budget.
And revision when -- say we can't cut more it's just a question of let the military do -- -- give them the ability to.
I have the authority to make those cuts tell other committee chairman and the ranking members Harry Reid to do your jobs and get out there and do a top to bottom review of all of Europe.
Committee responsibilities and find one point two trillion dollars worth of things to cut.
Now Richard not to.
-- -- if you will be your first.
The I was 5050 -- I was 5050 -- I could have gone either way seriously gonna have to worry about alignment.
What is your in your view about the continuing these discussions amongst the -- that is a super committee that creates this travesty we call sequester.
That super committee we we also have.
Of the gain debate on immigration without public discussion in town -- -- -- credit.
Senator John McCain a veteran of these immigration wars.
-- on Capitol Hill.
He's held town hall meetings and is beginning -- that are here from his constituents.
It's as if all of Washington is decided now that they are above the the French aristocrats in the eighteenth century.
This is becoming unseemly don't you think.
But I'm I'm all for full disclosure and transparency in the things that we do -- -- -- dealing with people's pocketbook and and wallets to make sure that we are good stewards of their money -- right now.
The people in Washington is you of -- people know they're not they're just spending.
Like there's no tomorrow almost like pigs that are trough argues that before.
And we need to stop and to make sure that would listen I love John McCain -- it was a real mentor to me.
And in Washington -- some I consider a national hero.
And the fact that he's out there doing the town hall meetings and and taking a lot of says well as -- -- -- bringing the conversation should people and letting them be part of the process I think can be commended.
We should be doing that would everything.
They had to have the committees this and we're under the gun.
I voted for because we were told by both leaders that the committee would do -- jobs well you know what when you put up Patty Murray the head of the democratic senatorial committee and there.
She's not gonna make those tough decisions.
So we can do better they should be working -- over the last year they're doing everything but the economic issues.
Well senator's great to have you here regard the -- to welcome you this -- Fox News contributor were delighted and I'm delighted also that.
Although they're -- going to be with us for quite some time you're not thinking about any political steps of the -- are you.
Listen though I'm happy to be on your show on Medicaid can Jeremy it is on his you guys don't have me I'm so thank you you -- -- we appreciate it good -- -- -- senator Scott Brown -- now Fox News contributor.
And -- terrific.
A terrific beginning -- -- great inaugural or.

Braden River High School student James "Jim" Watson Bradin III recently was appointed to the U.S. Air Force Academy.
"He's the first one in my family to go to a service academy and only the second person in my family to ever serve in the Air Force," said Jim's father Ret. Lt. Col. James Bradin, who teaches JROTC at Braden River .
Each year members of the House and Senate nominate senior high school students they represent for admission to the U.S. Air Force, Merchant Marine, Military and Naval Academies. Applicants appointed by their congressman have met strict qualifications and have been interviewed and recommended by a non-partisan Service Academy Board.
Jim Bradin is one of 12 area students who were nominated by Congressman Vern Buchanan to receive an appointment to a U.S. Service Academy.
"I congratulate these outstanding young men and women for their appointments," Buchanan said. "They should take pride in having successfully competed with so many students from across the country. It is an honor not only for them, but for all who have supported them along the way. I wish them the best of luck and have every confidence that they will serve our nation with honor."
A reception for recipients will be hosted by Buchanan at 3:30 p.m., May 2,9 at the Community Foundation, 2365 Fruitville Road, Sarasota.

Whenever a child is given birth to, she or he is greatly highly welcomed into the planet by certain crazy enjoying relatives. They prepare every single element for that small baby, and really do not trim down how many baby cribs they are able to think of, in order to give the best for their child.

But still, moms and dads in addition cherish the decor in their baby's bed room. Which is exactly where they devote nearly all of their hours thinking about strategies as to just how the bed room is going to look, what sort of painting will likely be used, the sort of furnishings which would stay in their baby's room, or others.
There is no doubt that a significant deciding source for parents paying is their spending budget, and that is augmented a lot more dependent on the season that they will be having their baby. If their child is mostly about to be given birth to in a calmer time of year, they likely can pay out a little bit more, since they would not have many other types of occasions to attend.

Taking Comfort, Convenience And Versatility To A Higher Level
Start with the mid-size SUV that sets the world standard for sophisticated performance and then make it even more comfortable, convenient and versatile. Thats the elegantly simple idea behind the GMC Envoy Max.
"GMC Envoy is the SUV that can handle anything without compromising comfort," said Jeanne Brooks, Envoy assistant brand manager, product. "Whether youre using it for a family outing or heading to a work site, the Envoy Max provides surprising capabilities and amenities to make your busy life easier and more comfortable."
Family trips will be more enjoyable for back-seat passengers, who will be able to watch a DVD movie on a flip-down screen and listen on wireless headphones. When not in use, the headphones can be stored in special pockets on the backs of the front seats. For additional comfort, Envoy Max provides custom perforated leather seating with enhanced front seat bolsters, and rear seat window shades. Uplevel interior touches include a leather-wrappedsteering wheel with brushed nickel accents and plush carpet floor mats from GM Accessories.

A Reese Dual Port System hitch can be used either to haul a trailer or to attach a rack for bikes or other recreational equipment. The rack conveniently swings out to allow the rear liftgate to be opened.

About two Saturdays ago, I went to my first Tropfest in Sydney's The Domain. Tropfest is the most prestigious short film festival in Australia, and the biggest short film festival in the world. Again, it was my first time to experience (I'm having lots of first experiences this year, like Big Day Out) one of the most iconic cultural events in Australia and had the chance to take some photos for Everguide. Every year more than 150 000 people go to Tropfest, in anticipation to watch all the new creative talent, whilst having a picnic in The Domain. This year being the 20th year of Tropfest, the turn out of guests and judges were the best of Australia, including Geoffrey Rush, Nicole Kidman, Cate Blanchett, Toni Collette and too many more to list!
Unfortunately this year, the rained poured half way through the night and many left. Take a look at this year's finalists here! Some were funny, some were a bit serious and I think the winner, Lemonade Stand directed by Althea Jones had a little bit of both. Take a watch of the winning short film at the bottom of this post! I also had the opportunity to style and dress Scott Tweedie (host of Channel Eleven's The Loop and ABC's Prank Patrol), but will do a separate post for that.

Order Standard by 2 p.m. ET 12/19 for 12/24 delivery. Standard $25+ orders ship free
Love the smell of lavender on and off my man. He wanted beard lotion which smelled like roses which birchbox had nothing of the sort. I ended up purchasing him this. We both like it, but I wish it made his beard more supple.
have never used this sort of product before, but glad to use my points to get another bottle of this!
I got this for my husband's anniversary gift. He has very sensitive skin and is prone to ingrown hair. This after shave is absolutely amazing!! And the best part is that my husband loves it! Definitely getting the pre-oil.
I've had the same jar since 2010; I just don't seem to use it that often. Doesn't help moisturize that much, and the smell is a bit strong (at first). I'm more just a splash water on my face kind of guy. That said, it does relieve a little burn, and lavender scent is surprisingly masculine in its own right.
I swear by Art of Shaving products. This is the best after-shave balm I have ever used. I have been using it for over three years! I recommend the sandalwood scent.
I also recommend purchasing the shaving cream and the pre-shave oil.
I use this product even as a daily moisturizer, it really does wonders for your skin and for the price you cant beat what you get
Feels great after a shave, especially if you've had to wait a while since your last. Would definitely recommend giving it a try, my skin is a little dry anyway and this does the trick
Feels good, leaves skin feeling soft and hydrated without the typical alcohol based after-shave. Highly recommended. Good product and good packaging in a glass bottle with a nice pump.
This is an excellent finish to a morning facial routine, Not much is required and the moisturizing power of this balm is superb. Love the choice of scents.
This after-shave is nice and soothes the face, but it's a little heavy for my tastes. I like something a little lighter and less noticeable on my face for everyday use.

Today's pick is a swingin track with a certain shyness to it, much like you would see from the tamer tunes of Dismemberment Plan or Q and Not U. The rhythm is delightfully clumsy and foot-tappingly catchy. If you're to find yourself standing while listening, be aware of your surroundings, not for fear that you'll tumble over random objects, but more so because you'll be dancing the most white-person dance imaginable in front of windows or people. I love this song, and I've embarrassed myself more than once being caught in the moment.

NEW YORK, Oct. 16, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Climbing-walls and organic mac-n-cheese are cool, but what really defines a great college in 2013 is how well it prepares you for life after commencement. With that in mind, The Daily Beast crunched the data for almost 2,000 colleges and universities across the country, factoring in everything that students actually care about-from affordability to future earnings to diversity to activities-to come up with a list of the very best schools in terms of real value. Our Top 200 includes category-specific rankings for the partiers and bookworms.
College rankings are ubiquitous, confusing, and often indiscriminate. The Daily Beast's Down + Dirty Guide to the Best Colleges aims to change that, ranking schools primarily on what students actually care about: their shot at getting a good job, and making a good living.
According to a 2012 survey of college freshmen by the Higher Education Research Institute, 88% said getting a "better job" is "very important"-above things like becoming a more "cultured person" and learning "more about things that interest me." The desire to "make more money" hit an all-time high, with 75% saying it was very important.
With this in mind, The Daily Beast analyzed nearly 2,000 four-year, degree-granting colleges and universities in the U.S. We used publicly available data and data collected and published by College Prowler, an online guide created by students that ranks hundreds of colleges on everything from the intelligence of professors to attractiveness of students. Criteria for The Daily Beast's rankings includes future earnings, quality of education, affordability and diversity.
Top ten schools:
Yale University, New Haven, CT
Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, MA
Stanford University, Stanford, CA
Harvard University, Cambridge, MA
Columbia University, New York, NY
Princeton, University, Princeton, NJ
University of California, Berkeley, CA
Williams College, Williamstown, MA
University of Virginia, Charlottesville, VA
University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, PA
