I'm the husband that made the decision to buy this machine. I made that decision based only on what I knew of customer service. In short, LG stands alone at the top of that pile----nobody else even comes close. I figure if they give good customer service then the quality of their machines can't be bad. I was right---as usual. My wife just loves her Dishwasher. First with her---everything comes out sparkling clean---no need to prewash or rinse before putting them in the dishwasher---just scrape off excess large particles so you don't have to clean them out of the filter later. Put forks and plates in there with dried on egg yoke---they will come out sparkling clean----we haven't found anything that this dishwasher won't clean--and we've tried. It is an absolute fact that every thing we've put in there comes out just sparkling clean--everything. She loves the fact that she can adjust the pressure of the sprays top and bottom-----sometimes she needs strong pressure on the bottom rack to clean pots and pans but needs only a little pressure on the upper rack where she has fine china or whatever. Steam?---you want steam---just select it and go. I'm just so proud when she raves on about what a great dishwasher this is---me, I just like that it's very quiet and that it pleases her. In our time we have had just about any kind of appliance you could mention---and I've had problems with quite a few of them---and I've come to know about customer service--most of my experience in that area has convinced me never to buy another of those machines. The research I did prior to buying this machine was aimed solely at customer service---and LG ---by every account I've read---and some testimony of friends that own LG appliances---have let me to buy their product---and my choice of this model could not have been better----It's a wonderful machine---LG will back it---I know they will because that's the way they do business. They have earned the praise I give them i this report. PS---Use the rinsing compound ---as they recommend.

I traded in a Samsung new dishwasher for this LG model. Having an LG washer which I love made this an easy choice for me. What I love is the adjustability of the racks, the 3rd shelf for utensils and small plastic items, the quietness of use, and the utensil basket. the appliance is very sharp and easy to clean. I also like the fact that you can take out the things you don't want like the plastic wine glass holder and the handle and tops on the utensil rack which I feel is unnecessary and cumbersome. What I don't care for is the configuration of the 2nd rack in that the 2nd rows are so skinny that they are pretty much unusable. I can't fit any of my glasses or mugs in them. I wish they were more uniform in size. I also find the flashing lights showing the cycle to be very annoying. It should not have to flash. The dish detergent dispenser does not close very easily and the dishwasher door won't hold up halfway; you have to push it up until it locks into place. I have found that despite using a rinse aid that my dishes are still wet and some have a cloudy film on them, especially my glass measuring cup bottoms. It seems that it is making the measurements fade on the cup. I tried the steam cycle and it takes off lettering on items. I also have not been impressed by the level of cleaning power on my dishes. Many still have food particles on them. If anyone has any suggestions regarding any of these items, please let me know. I have been using the Normal cycle.

The Worst!
By Patb
from Blackwood, NJ
Comments about LG Fully Integrated Built-In Stainless Steel TrueSteam Dishwasher:
This is without a doubt the worst dishwasher I've ever owned. Unless I use the strongest steam setting, the dishes come out dirty. My plates will not stand up when stacked - they lean over on each other. The folding tines fall down at the slightest touch. Based on my experience with this product, I will never purchase an LG appliance again. Don't waste your money. This is NOT a cheap machine.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

QUIET - I mean quiet.
By MAX1424
from Lansing, MI, USA
Unless used on Steam Cycle it does not clean as well as our old machine and it leaves spotted dishware. It is extremely quiet. Satisfied but was expecting more from this pricey unit.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Wonderful Product
By mom of twins
from pa
I really like this dishwasher. Having used many other brands in the past this is the first LG I have purchased. Having three racks to separate things is wonderful. I don't end up with spoons nesting together and not cleaning. The screen in the bottom is removable to clean, This is great with kids who don't always rinse things. After my husband finished connecting everything and I ran it for the first time, we stood in the kitchen looking at each other and asked is it running? It is so quiet we were not sure if it was running or not. Recommend this product to everyone I know who is looking to replace an older dishwasher.
love love love this dishwasher
By mundyfamilyof5
from Athens, GA
We had an Electrolux dishwasher so the bar was set very low. Lots of space, cleans very well, very quiet, easy to install. Absolutely love the 3 row and the steam cycle. It steams on both levels. We looked at several dishwashers. Never had a LG. I am convinced that LG is the real deal. We got a good deal on the dishwasher due to some tape on the outside door. It however is worth every penny they are asking for it.
Great Dishwasher
By Lorr

This dishwasher has plenty of space, adjusts nicely, cleans well, very quiet. I like the control panel and all the options. The cutlery basket could be designed differently. I am happy with this machine.

This is a defective model with known pump failure issues. LG tried to correct by inserting a new type of filter, but that effort also failed. Buyer beware.
Quit and cleans to a smooth touch and shine

Sooooooo Quiet!!
By st. louis
from St. Louis, MO, USA
great options on partial or full load and delicate settings and very very quiet
Fantastic Dishwasher
By nikmock
from San Marcos, CA, USA
I absolutely love this dishwasher! I did my homework and searched for the top 10 dishwasher in 2013. This model matched everything we were looking for. The 3rd rack is perfect for our knives, big utensils, baby forks and spoons. The steam clean really cleans our casserole dishes! I have peace and mind if there's a problem because I can use my smartphone to diagnose the problem. The best part is when the dishes are done, the washer chimes a little tune. I'm very happy with this product.
Awesome dishwasher, true to its reputation
By Quiet, high quality results
Bought the True Steam washer with the understanding that no matter how much food was left or dried on the dishes, this product would leave them clean. We have really put it to the test and it gets an A plus rating!! Another feature that was marketed was how quiet it was. Unbelievably true. My wife actually forgets it is running. The drying feature is fantastic as they are completely dry when you go to empty it. It's not inexpensive by no means but very much worth the cost. I recommend it with enthusiasm.

"Daily NewsMakers with Jeff Lytle" Two big winners in the GOP primary and a Florida Supreme Court justice under fire Nov. 6 from conservatives
Two big winners in the GOP primary and a Florida Supreme Court justice under fire Nov. 6 from conservatives are guests on this week's "Naples Daily NewsMakers with Jeff Lytle'' program airing this morning at 10 on ABC7.
Larry Kiker, the mayor of Fort Myers Beach, unseated 24-year incumbent Ray Judah on the Lee County Commission, and Cecil Pendergrass beat three others vying for the commission seat vacated by Brian Bigelow. Barbara Pariente of West Palm Beach talks about an unprecedented statewide merit-retention ballot challenge coming against her and two court colleagues; the governor would name replacements.
Video highlights will be posted Monday at naplesnews.com/newsmakers
Barbara Pariente
Lytle: We're talking about merit retention. You're one of the three justices on the ballot this November, but this time there are a lot more dynamics added to the mix. There is going to be an expected conservative push to vote these three justices out. So you're on a mission around the state to talk about the value, the importance, the integrity of merit retention and also to give voters a preview of what they're about to see and put it in context.
Pariente: I think that sounds very fair. But I wouldn't say it's a conservative push; I would say that it's a political push, and maybe that's just a difference in semantics. But it's a push that may ultimately threaten the judicial branch in this state and seems to be from people outside of the state.
Larry Kiker
Lytle: On baseball, you are saying you are not against it; you are saying that if we don't plan properly, we are going to be in a budget bind.
Kiker: Well, that's exactly right. We've already committed all the money that we can at the Tourist Development Council. They say grace over that money. But at the end of the day, if we don't figure out where we're going to get the money to pay for, as an example, the (Minnesota) Twins — that contract is coming up in February — and/or if we can get the Nationals or another team for City of Palms Park, where are we going to get the money? And we need a program. We need a plan.
Cecil Pendergrass
Lytle: What say you about baseball? That was one of the big campaign issues. We heard what Larry had to say. How about you?
Pendergrass: Obviously I'll support baseball ... We currently have baseball. Let me remind you also, it's practice. We don't have baseball; we have baseball practice.
And I think what the consensus is for the community is, they expect more from baseball owners to be more part of the team and other facilities instead of the county paying 100 percent of it.

More info www.firenzecard.it
It's been a long wait, but finally Florence has its Museo del Novecento, dedicated to the twentieth century!
It's been a long wait because it's been over 50 years, 50 years of projects and proposals, before the public could finally see a part of the collections of the City of Florence, granted by artists, collectors and institutions.
After the huge flood that covered Florence in 1966, leaving behind the loss of thousands of works of art, the art historian Carlo Ludovico Ragghianti took the initiative to assemble a committee to raise worldwide public awareness and to ask local and international artists to donate some of their works to replace the ones that had been destroyed. Over 200 artists replied to the appeal of "Artisti per Firenze", as the initiative was named, and the City of Florence promised that their works would become part of a future international museum of contemporary art.
The new Florentine museum is devoted to the Italian art of the twentieth century and houses a collection of about 300 works, divided into 15 exhibition spaces and organized through a path that traces the twentieth century, with its chronological, thematic and interdisciplinary approach, through paintings, sculptures, videos, installations and documents, and with the support of multimedia stations, sound devices and video rooms.
Florence Creativity awaits you at the Fortezza da Basso A long-awaited event, which is renewed again this year and that will appeal primarily to the general public that loves making creations manuals, using any type of material.
The visitors, from 09:30 to 19:00, will have access to the stands, they will observe materials, colors and new ideas, but also they will be educated and be fascinated by the many artisans who will share these techniques and ways of working.
A true realm of the handmade, colorful and creative, full of paintings, decoupage, lace, patchwork, embroidery, beading and sewing.
Every summer, the great tower on the Arno is re-opened for visits and it is an emotion to climb it up. The Tower at San Niccolò is located in Piazza Poggi square and it was built in 1324 in order to protect the district of Oltrarno.
It is the only tower in Florence that was never "decapitated" that is shortened with respect to its original height: it still preserves its very evocative walkway that has been secured so that it can be offered to citizens and tourists.
Once the top of the tower has been reached after around 160 steps, visitors can enjoy a 360-degree view of Florence with new glimpses, for example they can see the tourists just in front of them who are in Piazzale Michelangelo square.
The San Niccolò Tower is open to the public everyday from the 24th of June to the 30th of September – with accompanied access from 5pm to 8pm, with guided itineraries in Italian, English, French, Spanish (max. 20 people) every 30 minutes.
Advance booking is recommended. If it rains, this service is cancelled.
Visit to the Tower: € 4.

Cameron will bring Avatar back to movie theaters on August 27th with eight additional minutes of footage. Whether Cameron felt the eight additional minutes will add depth and meaning to Avatar, whether he wants to pad Avatar's gargantuan box-office numbers, whether he wants to remove the sting of losing Best Picture (and Best Director to Kathryn Bigelow's Iraq War film, The Hurt Locker, or all (or none) of the above, Cameron and 20th-Century Fox decided to re-release Avatar exclusively on Digital 3D and IMAX® 3D screens after the summer blockbuster season came to a close and those screens were available again.
Here's an excerpt from 20th-Century Fox's official press release:
On August 27, return to Pandora and re-experience James Cameron's History-Making Epic film, with more than Eight Minutes of Never Before Seen Footage- exclusively in Digital 3D and IMAX® 3D. Since - and largely as of result of - AVATAR's release last December, the number of available digital 3D screens has exploded, and moviegoers who missed experiencing the film in 3D, as well as fans that want to return to Pandora again, will now have that opportunity.
So what do you think? Will you revisit Avatar in movie theaters on or after August 27th? Will the eight additional minutes of footage be worth the time and premium ticket price? Or are you suffering from Avatar fatigue and wait until the inevitable double-dip Blu-Ray/DVD release (hopefully with extras)?

Before there was the Geo Metro, there was the Chevrolet Sprint, the original rebadged Suzuki Swift. In the mid-80s, The General figured some pinko subversive types weren't getting the news about cheap gas, preferring small turbocharged engines to great big pushrod V8s. When Plan A (having such traitors shipped off to work extracting neptunium from heaps of uranium ore tailings in the Aleutian Islands) didn't pan out, GM figured they'd sacrifice their principles and go with Plan B: Turbo Sprint! Yes, a 1.0 liter 3-cylinder engine with intercooled turbocharger setup. 73 horsepower didn't sound like much, but we're talking about a car that weighed just 1,488 pounds here. Sadly, just about all the Turbo Sprints were crashed or blown up, and they're just about impossible to find these days. But hold on- we've managed to scare up this 1987 Chevy Sprint Turbo for you, priced below a thousand bucks! Does it run? Well, it almost runs; the seller states "thing a rod bearing broke, which was causeing the car to barely run," though there's also the chance that "the clutch may have took a dump." Either way, the seller has already made progress on the repairs, by taking a bunch of stuff apart and obtaining a (non-turbo) junkyard engine; not only that, he or she has added some kickass performance mods, ensuring that this Sprint will
never pass a smog test again blow the doors off everything else on the street.
Three cylinders? That just seems… wrong. You're even willing to pay more for that extra piston, but you'll be pleasantly surprised to find that you can get yourself a turbocharged, four-cylinder, badge-engineered Japanese subcompact for even cheaper than the Sprint. Really! Head on out to Reno, shoot a man just to watch him die, then proceed a few more klicks to Sparks, where you'll find this 1984 Dodge Colt GTS Turbo (go here if the ad disappears) for only 750 bucks. It's got the Twin Stick overdrive transmission, giving you eight forward gears to play with (well, if you can get it unstuck from Sport Mode) and 102 horses to haul its 1,880 pounds (the seller says those numbers are really 110 horses and 1700 pounds, so maybe I'm looking in the wrong reference books here). The clutch is dying, the tires are bad, the CV joints are hosed, and the list goes on and on… but who cares? This thing has the potential to make you King (or Queen) Of The Hoons! Add more boost, fix all the broken stuff, then add some more boost, and watch the Turbo Sprints disappear from your rearview!

Ceisteanna – Questions. - Proposed Legislation.
Wednesday, 12 March 2003
Dáil Eireann Debate
1. Mr. Rabbitte asked the Taoiseach his Department's legislative priorities for the remainder of the 29th Dáil; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [1241/03]
2. Mr. J. Higgins asked the Taoiseach his Department's legislative programme for the current Dáil session; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [1709/03][375]
3. Mr. Sargent asked the Taoiseach if he will report on his Department's legislative priorities for the current Dáil session; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [2418/03]
4. Mr. Kenny asked the Taoiseach his legislative priorities for the remainder of the current Dáil; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [2422/03]
5. Caoimhghín Ó Caoláin asked the Taoiseach his legislative priorities for 2003 and for the remainder of the 29th Dáil. [6320/03]
The Taoiseach: I propose to take Questions Nos. 1 to 5, inclusive, together.
My Department has two items of legislation for the 29th Dáil, the National Economic and Social Development Office Bill 2002 and the Interpretation Bill 2002. I have instructed my officials to commence work on the heads of a Bill to effect the transfer of responsibility for local State solicitors from the Office of the Attorney General to the Director of Public Prosecutions. This is one of the last outstanding recommendations of the Nally report, produced by the public prosecution service study group.
Mr. Rabbitte: When will the Bill to establish the new economic and social development office be brought before the House?
The Taoiseach: I would like it to come before the House soon. The office is working on a non-statutory basis at present, but I would like it to be established on a legislative basis, especially in the interests of the staff involved. The Bill will be brought forward when the House is ready to deal with it.
Mr. J. Higgins: Will the Taoiseach clarify a reply he gave to a question I asked during the last discussion on legislative priorities? It referred to the Government's plans on controlling the price of building land and outlawing the speculation which has taken place to such an outrageous degree and which puts in total jeopardy the right of people to purchase a home. This is because the owners of land banks decide to speculate and make a fortune.
An Ceann Comhairle: That question might be more appropriate for the Minister for the Environment and Local Government.
Mr. J. Higgins: It relates to the question on the legislative priorities for the current Dáil session. Does the Taoiseach intend to bring forward legislation to control the price of building land? I have been asking him this for the past six years. Will he stop the speculators who are making it impossible for young people to purchase a home and who are continuing to reap the outrageous profits they have been reaping?
[376]An Ceann Comhairle: The question refers to the legislative programme of the Department of the Taoiseach for the current Dáil session.
Mr. J. Higgins: The Taoiseach is in charge of the Government so it is a question on—
An Ceann Comhairle: It might be appropriate for Leaders' Questions.
Mr. J. Higgins: The Taoiseach is the leader of the Government and I am asking him.
An Ceann Comhairle: The Taoiseach is responsible for the legislation in his own Department. The Deputy's question refers to the legislative programme of the Department of the Taoiseach.
Mr. Sargent: The Ceann Comhairle is certainly limiting the range of supplementary questions. I wonder if it is in line with the precedent in the House because, in response to previous questions on the legislative programme, the Taoiseach certainly took the liberty of talking about the whole national question. He dealt with the North, partnership talks and some legislative programmes of other Departments. Is he allowed to extend his remit beyond his own Department although the Opposition is not?
An Ceann Comhairle: No, Deputy. I am referring specifically to a question in your name asking the Taoiseach if he will report on his Department's legislative priorities for the current Dáil session.
Mr. Sargent: I feel the Taoiseach would have legislative priorities that go beyond his Department. Given the phenomenon of climate change and that we are 80% reliant on imported fuels, the Taoiseach should be interested because this will have an impact on every Department, including his own. Is greater urgency being accorded to the type of remedial action needed? A completely different economic outlook is required given that the Kyoto Protocol will lead to enormous fines being imposed on this country.
An Ceann Comhairle: As I pointed out to Deputy Joe Higgins, that question is more appropriate to the Minister for the Environment and Local Government.
Mr. Sargent: The Taoiseach cannot avoid the issue whether he is allowed to answer it or not.
Mr. Kenny: Does the Taoiseach think it is appropriate that legislation should be passed through the Oireachtas when neither of its sponsoring Ministers is present? I refer to the Freedom of Information (Amendment) Bill 2003, which is now being taken in the Seanad.
An Ceann Comhairle: No form of logic would allow that supplementary question to any one of the five questions.
[377]Mr. Kenny: The Bill is a legislative priority because it is being rammed through by the Government—
An Ceann Comhairle: The Deputy should find other ways of raising the issue.
Mr. Kenny: —as a matter of priority.
An Ceann Comhairle: It certainly cannot be raised on foot of a question to the Taoiseach.
Mr. Kenny: My question refers to the priorities for the remainder of the current Dáil. The Bill is a legislative priority and is being dealt with in the Seanad although neither sponsoring Minister is present.
An Ceann Comhairle: The manner in which the legislation goes through the House—
Mr. Kenny: I am asking the Taoiseach, as somebody who has been around here for almost as long as myself, about the practicality and mechanics of dealing with legislation when neither of the sponsoring Ministers is present.
An Ceann Comhairle: That does not arise out of this question.
Mr. Kenny: It does because the Bill is a legislative priority.
An Ceann Comhairle: How the legislative priority is dealt with does not arise.
Mr. Kenny: The Bill which restricts citizens is being taken in the Seanad and neither sponsoring Minister is here to deal with it. What is the Taoiseach's view on that?
The Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform has made comments about the establishment of committees of inquiry and about the introduction of mandatory identification cards. Neither of these two suggestions appears on the legislative programme. Have they been considered and approved by the Cabinet? If so, when will the relevant legislation be brought before the House?
The Taoiseach: I have heard the Chair's ruling. These matters do not pertain to my Department but there are proposals concerning them.
Mr. Kenny: What about the practicality of putting legislation through with no Minister present to deal with it?
An Ceann Comhairle: That does not arise in relation to the Taoiseach's Department.
Mr. Kenny: The Taoiseach does understand that—
[378]An Ceann Comhairle: There are other ways of raising the matter.
Mr. Kenny: The ruling of the Ceann Comhairle is very specific. The Bill is a legislative priority of the Government.
An Ceann Comhairle: The Deputy must ask something in line with the questions submitted.
Mr. Kenny: My question refers to the Taoiseach's legislative priorities for the remainder of the current Dáil.
An Ceann Comhairle: Even taking the broadest view of that question—
Mr. Kenny: One of the Taoiseach's legislative priorities is to change—
An Ceann Comhairle: It is not relevant what Minister takes the legislation.
Mr. Kenny: —the Freedom of Information Act.
An Ceann Comhairle: That totally defies logic.
Mr. Kenny: I will abide by the ruling of the Ceann Comhairle but, with respect, one of the Taoiseach's legislative priorities is to amend the Freedom of Information Act. Both Ministers sponsoring the Bill are out of the jurisdiction. Does the Taoiseach think that is appropriate?
Mr. English: It is a simple question.
An Ceann Comhairle: I call Deputy Ó Caoláin.
Mr. Kenny: The Taoiseach wants to answer the question.
An Ceann Comhairle: That does not arise.
Mr. Kenny: It does because it is a legislative priority.
Mr. English: It is not rocket science.
Mr. Kenny: It is the Taoiseach's legislative priority to change the Freedom of Information Act. The two Ministers sponsoring the Bill are away. Does the Taoiseach think this is appropriate?
An Ceann Comhairle: If the Deputy reads his question—
Mr. Kenny: I will. It is to ask the Taoiseach his legislative priorities for the remainder of the current Dáil. One of those is the amendment of the Freedom of Information Act.
An Ceann Comhairle: How the Act is dealt with does not arise from the Deputy's question.
[379]Mr. Kenny: It does. The Taoiseach wants to give the best kind of leadership to his Government. Is it good leadership to have an Act passing through the Seanad—
An Ceann Comhairle: The Deputy knows he is abusing-—
Mr. Kenny: —when both sponsoring Ministers are across the water?
An Ceann Comhairle: The Deputy knows he is being disorderly.
Mr. Kenny: Does the Taoiseach think that makes for good legislation?
The Taoiseach: I want to give a good example. Will the Chair allow me to answer a few questions?
Mr. Kenny: I will not be disruptive but I think it is very bad practice.
The Taoiseach: There is a question on the European Council meeting next week which I would like to answer today because it will be irrelevant when I next get the opportunity to answer it.
Mr. Kenny: I want to know the practicality of—
An Ceann Comhairle: The Deputy is straying beyond the terms of his question.
Caoimhghín Ó Caoláin: My question does not refer to the Taoiseach's Department and it was worded very carefully. It asks the Taoiseach to outline his legislative priorities for 2003 and for the remainder of the 29th Dáil. I would have raised some of the questions that have already been posed, but I wish to raise again one which was asked throughout the term of the 28th Dáil and which was, at times, greeted with mockery and derision.
I find it absolutely intolerable that the ground rent Bill is on the programme of the 29th Dáil again although the Taoiseach has absolutely no intention of bringing it forward and making it the priority that it should be for so many who are suffering the consequences of this Government's and previous Governments' failure to tackle this very important issue – I challenge the Taoiseach to clarify the position. This issue affects communities and urban areas not only in my own constituency but throughout the country. Will the Taoiseach make the ground rent Bill a priority of the Government in the course of the 29th Dáil? When exactly will he do so, rather than offering the glib, dismissive responses that we received to questions on this important legislation in the past?
The Taoiseach: The Chair has made a ruling and I cannot breach it. I regularly answer the [380] Deputy's question on the Order of Business when I am asked about it.
Caoimhghín Ó Caoláin: The Taoiseach responds but he does not answer.
The Taoiseach: I give the Deputy the reply, which he should pursue with the relevant Minister. He knows that is the procedure.
Caoimhghín Ó Caoláin: My question is very clear. It asks the Taoiseach what his legislative priorities are not only for 2003 but for the remainder of the 29th Dáil.
An Leas-Cheann Comhairle: A ruling has already been made.
Caoimhghín Ó Caoláin: The earlier ruling of the Ceann Comhairle does not excuse the Taoiseach from his responsibility for the full raft of legislation.
An Leas-Cheann Comhairle: I call Deputy Quinn.
Caoimhghín Ó Caoláin: I am trying to ascertain the Taoiseach's position on the ground rent Bill.
Mr. Quinn: Does the Taoiseach see any distinction between the role of individual Departments, such as the Departments of Justice, Equality and Law Reform and Environment and Local Government, and his own Department in respect of legislative responsibilities, or are they all equal? Is he equal to every other Minister in terms of the constitutional operations of the Republic? That is at the core of what we are asking.
The Taoiseach: The Taoiseach is the head of Government. According to my understanding of the rulings of the Chair, I discuss proposed legislation during parliamentary questions and I answer for the Government during the Order of Business.
Mr. Quinn: Unlike the Department of Justice, Equality and Law Reform, the Department of the Taoiseach has a co-ordination and managerial role in respect of all legislation. Notwithstanding what has been stated in the past, inquiries about legislative priorities, such as that of Deputy Joe Higgins, constitute perfectly legitimate parliamentary questions to the Taoiseach. Members of the House will be aware that the Taoiseach can establish the legislative priorities of the Cabinet and order time through his Minister of State to give legislative proposals oxygen in this Chamber. On that basis, does the Taoiseach accept he has a unique role in articulating the Government's legislative priorities, not just those which emanate from his Department?
The Taoiseach: Deputy Quinn is correct. On the last day I answered questions regarding the [381] Government's programme, I responded with regard to a range of areas. As I understand it, the Chair's ruling was made in the context of the formulation of questions. It was not my ruling.
An Leas-Cheann Comhairle: We cannot get into a debate on the rulings of the Chair.
Mr. Quinn: This is important. I ask the Chair to note the Taoiseach's clear indication that a question on the legislative programme of the Government phrased in a particular way must be responded to citing its rank in terms of priority. For example, the Taoiseach would be expected to articulate whether a ground rents Bill is as urgent as the abolition of freedom of information.
The Taoiseach: Deputy Quinn has attended questions to the Taoiseach long enough to know exactly how the matter is dealt with. Deputy Joe Higgins referred at the beginning to a debate we had here, but he formulated his question differently.
Mr. Quinn: Is it the case that if we get the formulation right, the Taoiseach will answer the question?
The Taoiseach: That is how we did it the last time. I do it all the time.
Mr. Quinn: The Taoiseach is not being protected by the Chair now.
The Taoiseach: That is not a matter for the Deputy to comment on. I am not required to have all the detail a Minister would, but it is usual for me to answer questions. When discussing social partnership, I answer across a range of areas from the perspective of my co-ordinating role. A ruling of the Chair was made today and that—
Mr. Quinn: I challenge that ruling.
The Taoiseach: Anyone would accept that in my six years as Taoiseach I have ranged all over the place to be helpful to the House.
An Leas-Cheann Comhairle: I must remind the House that there is a 45 minute limit on questions to the Taoiseach.
Caoimhghín Ó Caoláin: The ruling to which the Taoiseach referred related to questions Nos. 1 to 3, inclusive, which relate specifically to his Department's legislative priorities. Questions Nos. 4 and 5 put by Deputy Kenny and me, respectively, make no such reference, nor did the Ceann Comhairle rule on my question. The baton was passed to the Leas-Cheann Comhairle who is in a position to make a judgment, but has not ruled. I asked the Taoiseach his legislative priorities for 2003 and the remainder of the 29th Dáil. Is a ground rent Bill a priority for the Taoiseach in this Dáil term or during the course of the 29th Dáil? The responses we received between 1997 [382] and 2002 indicate that the Taoiseach does not intend to address this important issue seriously. If his position is different, I ask him to correct the impression I have been given.
Mr. Rabbitte: In the context of his legislative priorities for the remainder of this Dáil, does the Taoiseach intend to promote any amendments to the Constitution? Are there any legislative proposals to assert the primacy of the public good over private property to alleviate the housing crisis and reduce the price of land?
The Taoiseach: That is a priority area for the constitutional review group and the Department of the Environment and Local Government. I have engaged in a number of discussions with the Attorney General to discover how best to tackle this issue. I have done a certain amount of work and it is clear that much more is required. The legislation involved will not come from my Department, but it is a priority of mine.
Mr. Rabbitte: Is it the Taoiseach's intention to bring forward measures in the lifetime of this Dáil? He seemed to say there will not be legislative measures, but I am not sure this matter can be addressed without them, whether it is by constitutional amendment or otherwise. Does the Taoiseach think the discussions to which he referred will be concluded halfway through the life of this Government at which point the issue I raised will be dealt with?
The Taoiseach: The answer to that question is "Yes". I said legislation would not come from my Department, but it will be necessary. A constitutional amendment may also be required.

2012 BOYS LACROSSE PLAYER OF THE YEAR: Skye Sickles, Barron Collier
Skye Sickles didn't lead the Barron Collier lacrosse team in goals this season. He didn't have the most total points either.
Though he wasn't No. 1 in the Cougars' scorebook, Sickles was near the top of nearly every statistical category this season. By doing it all, and doing it well, it's easy to see why he was named MVP of the team that dominated its local competition.
"Skye was asked to do a lot for us," Barron Collier coach Trent Carter said. "He faced off, he scored goals. He played more roles than anyone else. He was asked to carry more bags."
The 6-foot-4 Sickles might have been the biggest reason the Cougars went 15-4, earned a second straight district title and won a state postseason play-in game for the first time.
For all he did for the best team in the area, Sickles is the Naples Daily News Boys Lacrosse Player of the Year.
Sickles scored 54 goals this season to go along with 13 assists. He led the Cougars with 78 ground balls and often was the one battling for possession in faceoffs.
"I had a pretty good year because of the kids I played with," Sickles said. "It was a good group of guys. We all worked together to get things done."
The past two seasons, Sickles helped the Cougars become the strongest program in Southwest Florida. Barron Collier has won district titles both years it has been eligible for postseason play. This season the Cougars outscored county opponents 211-19.
Sickles played his first two years at Gulf Coast before transferring to Barron Collier as a junior. Carter coached him at Gulf Coast before taking over the Cougars this year.
"Skye is extremely committed to the game of lacrosse," Carter said. "He's always the first player to practice and the last to leave. His size alone makes it rough for anyone to stop him, especially at midfield."
Sickles started playing the sport just six years ago when he first joined the Collier County Lacrosse Association youth program. With help from a growth spurt, he has developed into a college-caliber player.
This spring Sickles signed a letter of intent to play next year at Stevenson University near Baltimore. The Mustangs ended the regular season ranked fifth in the nation, and advanced to the Division III semifinals this year.

A Gas Tax: Numbers vs. Words
April 25, 2011
Jim Manzi
Yesterday, I wrote a post using data from Kevin Drums blog in which I argued that any feasible U.S. gas tax would be highly unlikely to free America from the need for sourcing massive amounts of oil from unstable regimes, or to make a meaningful dent in potential global warming damages. This is because, among other things, the price elasticity of oil is just not high enough.Ryan Avent at The Economist has written a good-faith reply that, ironically, reinforces this point.
Avents first criticism centers on long-run elasticity being much higher than short-run elasticity (essentially, that I can drive a little less this year if the price of gas goes way up, but that if it stays high over 10 years, I can buy a smaller car, and bring my usage way down). This is, of course, correct. Its why I only quoted the long-term price elasticity estimates from Drums post. According to the IMF study on which these are based, "long term" here means twenty years.
Avents second criticism is that if one believes (as I do, and as I stated in the post) that the key to reducing ceteris paribus fossil fuels consumption in the U.S. is improved technology, "then higher prices are a good way to encourage their development."
They are a way to do this, certainly, but not necessarily a good way.
Start with a rigorous definition of "new technology" for this purpose. This doesnt just mean geo-thermal powered rocket packs, but also things like better bus routing software, improved rail tracks, and more energy-efficient housing construction materials. Either consumers would or would not choose any one of these new technologies under current conditions. If you use a tax to push up the price of fossil fuels, and this changes the consumer decision calculus so that they are now willing to choose some alternative that they otherwise would not have, it is because you have foreclosed a choice they used to have that they prefer to any of the options that are available after the tax increase. Another way of saying this is that you have just lowered their material standard of living.
When I say "new technology," then, I mean technical advances that create new alternatives that people would choose to employ instead of fossil fuel based alternatives at current prices. That is, improvements to material standard of living that also have the benefit of reducing fossil fuels consumption.
Now to evaluate Avents argument that taxing fossil fuels is a good way to induce new technology, consider an analogy. Suppose that there is a chemotherapy drug that increases five-year survival rate for a specialized type of cancer from 10 percent to 60 percent, but with horrible side-effects. Some scientists in a couple of university labs have had some promising results with basic compounds that might or might not ultimately be precursors to a new drug that could get better increases in survival rates, and without many of the awful side effects. If you believed that improving treatment for this disease should be a major public priority, would your preferred approach be to add a large tax to chemotherapy? This is, in effect, what Avent is proposing as way to encourage the development of alternative energy technologies. Id fund NIH research into the new alternative drug.
Finally, Avent argues that a gas tax is a great idea whether or not it really reduces fossil fuels usage, because even if Im right and it wont eliminate that much oil consumption, then it will be "a great way to generate revenue" (i.e., will result in a ton of additional tax collections). That is an entirely different argument, which would concede the point I was making in my post.

MAC At Dusk Extra Dimension Blush Review & Swatches
I remember being far from impressed with MAC Extra Dimension Blush on the original release and MAC At Dusk Extra Dimension Blush, one of three new shades launching with the MAC Magnetic Nudes Collection, is far from impressive either.
MAC Extra Dimension Blush made their first appearance for Spring 2013 and we get a new selection of these of them for Spring 2014 along with new Extra Dimension Eyeshadows and Skinfinishes.
At first try I said they sucked….they are so sheer even though they appear pigmented in the pan! Plus the metallic finish one would expect simply isn't there.
Let's take a look!
I always feel slightly mislead with MAC Extra Dimension Blush because at a glance they look like a metallic, glowy blush of some sort but in reality they are terribly sheer without any such pop or sizzle!
They have a soft, silky feel with a semi-matte satin finish in my opinion!
At Dusk is actually a repromoted shade from the original release. It's a very cool pink and I didn't feel like the pigment suffered any great improvement on this second release. I can't get it to build very well so the color is very, very soft and subtle. The consistency is very soft and very silky! It's very easy to blend as well. The disappointment stems from the fact that the formula has very little pigment. On my skin tone I can't even get it to show up at all!
I think if you're automatically assuming they have the finish and consistency of an Extra Dimension or Mineralize Skinfinish you'll be disappointed but if you felt like those two products were a little too sparkly or too glowy for your tastes well than Extra Dimension Blush will be a pleasant and welcome surprise.
The formula is beautiful but the pigmentation is such a bust for me! Le sigh! If you like less than pigmented blush perhaps you'll like MAC Extra Dimension Blush but if you want pop, well, there isn't any to be had here.
Are you a fan of these blushes?
Do share!

12/27/13 10:24 Jamie:
I bought this last time and returned it. Terrible product! My complexion is the same as yours and I couldn't get it to show up either. I do like the highlighters and the eye shadows though.
12/27/13 10:49 Sara:
I think there are two blush camps in the world (that often align with skin tone), one who thinks blush like everything else should be super pigmented (fair enough) and those of us who think that blush should be less pigmented to make application easier (this camp tend to be paler one).
I for one adored this blush so much the last time that I bought a backup, which I almost never do. It's perfect for me, adds a natural flush and is hard to overdo. I almost bought a third yesterday and am still considering it. 😡
12/30/13 0:58 Daisyta:
this is my first MAC blush, so im still playing with it.
i just tried depotting it to put in my palette it seems to be missing the metal pan. is it just mine? or are all the blushes like this?
12/30/13 11:09 kellly:
I bought Superb and use it as an eyeshadow. It looks shiny but natural. I LOVE shine on my eyes but not elsewhere on my face so this is working well for me. The size means it will last me half of forever, too!
1/8/14 3:08 amy:
I just bought this last week, and I *love* it! For some reason, I didn't care for it the first time around, but I think it had more to do with the lighting in that particular store. I swatched it in a different store, and took a chance, and I'm glad I did. I am fairly light, though, in between NARS Siberia & Deauville, and I prefer subtle cheeks & lips most often.

Liberty and Tyranny: A Conservative Manifestoby Mark R Levin
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
Conservative talk radio's fastest-growing superstar is also a New York Times bestselling phenomenon: the author of the groundbreaking critique of the Supreme Court, Men in Black, and the deeply personal dog lover's memoir Rescuing Sprite, Mark R. Levin now delivers the book that characterizes both his devotion to his more than 5 million listeners and his love of our country and the legacy of our Founding Fathers: Liberty and Tyranny is Mark R. Levin's clarion call to conservative America, a new manifesto for the conservative movement for the 21st century.
In the face of the modern liberal assault on Constitution-based values, an attack that has steadily snowballed since President Roosevelt's New Deal of the 1930s and resulted in a federal government that is a massive, unaccountable conglomerate, the time for re-enforcing the intellectual and practical case for conservatism is now. Conservative beliefs in individual freedoms do in the end stand for liberty for all Americans, while liberal dictates lead to the breakdown of civilized society — in short, tyranny. Looking back to look to the future, Levin writes "conservatism is the antidote to tyranny precisely because its principles are our founding principles." And in a series of powerful essays, Levin lays out how conservatives can counter the liberal corrosion that has filtered into every timely issue affecting our daily lives, from the economy to health care, global warming, immigration, and more — and illustrates how change, as seen through the conservative lens, is always prudent, and always an enhancement to individual freedom.
As provocative, well-reasoned, robust, and informed as his on-air commentary, Levin's narrative will galvanize readers to begin a new era in conservative thinking and action. Liberty and Tyranny provides a philosophical, historical, and practical framework for revitalizing the conservative vision and ensuring the preservation of American society.
A popular radio talk-show host and the author of the "New York Times" bestsellers "Rescuing Sprite" and "Men in Black" delivers a new manifesto for the conservative movement.
Most people know nothing about the legal system. We must not go down to their level but must force them to come up to our level.
A shocking expose of the inside game in Washington, explaining how so many politicians leave Washington richer than they were when they first arrived. Worst of all, its all legal: members of congress are free to trade stocks based on confidential information, hedge-fund managers are free to extract tips from politicians, and then reward them with access to IPOs, and the Obama administration has been able to reward dozens of campaign contributors with shockingly large grants and guaranteed loans.
Politicians often come into office with relatively modest assets. As investors, they regularly beat the market and sometimes beat the most rapacious hedge funds. Even without making stock trades, they often retire rich. How do they do it?
Billionaires and hedge fund managers often make well-timed investment decisions that anticipate events in Washington. How do they do it?
When such former politicians and federal appointees as Al Gore, Dan Quayle, and Madeleine Albright decide to launch investment funds, wealthy clients sign up. Why?
Welcome to the insidious world of crony capitalism.
Cronyism exists not so much as outright bribery, using suitcases full of cash, but rather in accepted insider routes to wealth: Members of Congress trade stocks based on privileged information. They insert earmarks into bills to improve their own real estate holdings. Campaign contributors receive billions in federal grants. Nobody goes to jail.
Crony capitalism transcends party lines and has become a big business hidden in plain sight. Using personal financial information, government databases, and a team of indefatigable researchers, Peter Schweizer shines a light into the darkest corners of the system — and offers ways to overcome it. It is time to clean house.
Dont miss syndicated radio host and author Mark Levin's #1 New York Times acclaimed and longtime bestselling manifesto for the conservative movement.
When nationally syndicated radio host Mark R. Levins Liberty and Tyranny appeared in the early months of the Obama presidency, Americans responded by making his clarion call for a new era in conservatism a #1 New York Times bestseller for an astounding twelve weeks. As provocative, well-reasoned, robust, and informed as his on-air commentary, with his love of our country and the legacy of our Founding Fathers reflected on every page, Levins galvanizing narrative provides a philosophical, historical, and practical framework for revitalizing the conservative vision and ensuring the preservation of American society.
In the face of the modern liberal assault on Constitution-based values, an attack that has resulted in a federal government that is a massive, unaccountable conglomerate, the time for reinforcing the intellectual and practical case for conservatism is now. In a series of powerful essays, Levin lays out how conservatives can counter the tyrannical liberal corrosion that has filtered into every timely issue affecting our daily lives, from the economy to health care, global warming to immigration, and more.

Before Miss Fancy came to Avondale, she belonged to a travelling circus that toured the country. One of Miss Fancy's favorite companions at the circus was a joker and magician. He was a mischievous fellow, doing card tricks, juggling acts and other feats of amazement. You should see what he can do with some coffee beans and hops!
No Joka Mocha is a coffee oatmeal chocolate stout that is decidedly weighted towards the coffee end of the taste spectrum. This brew has a blackish pour with a creamy tan head. Solid coffee aroma greets the nose with deep rich malts in the background. It has a medium body that is slightly sweet, light chocolate and finishes smooth with the oatmeal. Our special blend of Blue Batak Sumatran Coffee used in this brew comes to us specially roasted from our good friend Woody at Finer Grind Coffee Roasters. Together with Woody, we combined our passion for beer and coffee together to craft this seasonal brew.

I was at the electronic stix store waiting to buy some more juice for my e-cig, and a girl I went to highschool with was also waiting in line.
This store makes me so mad, they expect a bunch of ex-smokers to wait patiently while their one salesperson helps everyone one at a time.
Its the only place I know of that sells a decent juice, the other juice at smoke shops seems to scorch.
Im still learning about them and how they work, the sales people act as if they are superior cause they know how every model works. I get it, its your job. I draw blood want me to talk about blood tests? Bet ya dont know about that! anyways quitting and feeling nicotine withdrawels, makes everything like 3 times more annoying to me ha ha. Everytime I go in that store Im getting my fix and they irritate me so bad!!!!
They have a clipboard you have to write your name on, its like take a number 'cept, different.
I dont really know what I expect them to do, 'cept for be faster.
My old school-mate turned to me and said "I miss cigarettes, hit the gas station, you're in you're out, this place is killing me!" I nodded in feverish agreement. While tapping my foot. And as soon as I got my bottle of juice I smoked my e-cig continuously for a while ha ha ha....
Makes me laugh now tho. I would rather deal with that then spend 200 bucks a month on smokes.View Thread
I still call it quit....
Im just not sure how to convince myself not to ask my friends to give me a drag. Most the time I dont even think about it. But once some one lights up in front of me the battle is charging in my head.
I have noticed an increase in body odor, and sweat, my skin is breaking out and im really oily, do you think this is my skin pushing out the toxins? I hope it goes away soon cause Im getting married in September.View Thread
My ex boyfriend never quit smoking and he used to like sweat Camel, so I guess... its normal.
IDK!View Thread
So I made the commitment august 23rd and I went all week with out smoking anything but 2 prime times. and then when I got to the casino I bought two packs and smoked those friday and saturday. Now its been 4 days since I have smoked. I am not really bothered by it. I thought about digging in my butt tray yesterday and refrained from doing so by telling myself thats disgusting, which it is.
now I am hoping I can make it through this weekend with out fouling up again....View Thread

Dr. Motlana is one of the unofficial leaders of South Africa's urban blacks. He is chairman of the Soweto Committee of Ten, a grassroots black organization designed to better the political and social life of the urban black. The South African government has twice banned Dr. Motlana. His eldest son fled the country after the 1976 Soweto Riots. Despite recent efforts on the part of the government, Motlana refuses to partake in any government sponsored activities.
When we first contacted Dr. Motlana, he invited us to his home in Soweto. What we didn't know at the time was that whites must obtain a special visitors permit from the government to enter the black township of Soweto. To avoid the troublesome process of getting a pass, we suggested that we meet for dinner Johannesburg and asked Dr. Motlana to choose a restaurant. He politely declined.
What we didn't realize was that there was no choice. The only restaurants in which South African blacks and whites can mingle are those few restaurants designated as "international" by the government. "International" status is given almost exclusively to the few five star hotels in order to accomodate black diplomats.
The night of the interview Dr. Motlana arrived with his son Karabo, a university student. As if by mutual agreement, niceties were dispensed with and we tackled issues that kept us talking well into the night.
For simplicity's sake we have labelled our questions, Us, Dr. Motlana's answers Dr. M., and his son's comments, K.
Us: Dr. Motlana, you're chairman of the Soweto Committee of Ten. How did the committee come about? What is its purpose? Dr. M.: After the riots in 1976, the youth got together and said we must do something to organize our own affairs. They approached me and asked me to come to their organizational meeting, where I was elected chairman. We have no specific goals, we just want an impartial voice for the community. We want to arrange our own affairs and not have someone from the West Rand Administration (government agency) arrange them for us.
Us: What is the Committee's power?
Dr. M.: We have the people with us.
Us: Aren't you in fact endorsing apartheid by accepting your fate in Soweto, rather than struggling to get out?
Dr M.: I've been accused of collaborating, that is nonsense. We must walk a very narrow line. This is not America where Martin Luther King can march down Washington Avenue. We are making a strong statement by the mere existence of the committee showing Afrikaanerdom that we will decide our own future.
Us: Aren't you concerned about yourself, your family?
Dr. M.: Yes, of course we're concerned. I was banned twice, I'll probably be banned again. They could banish me to the Kalahari desert. Of course we are afraid. My son was forced to leave the country, the BOSS intercept our correspondence with him. We are against a fortress.
Us: Despite the suffering you endure there were no riots in Soweto this June 16th, why?
Dr. M.: We didn't start the riots of 1976. It was the police that rioted, not the people. The police were nervous, jumpy, they turned a tense situation into a blood bath. This year the police were more experienced so there were no riots.
Us: The government says that the blacks are divided. They claim that the urban blacks are at odds with the rural blacks and that you are strongly divided along tribal lines.

The Magazine
Ideas Matter
So long as they are ideas and not partisan talking points.
May 21, 2012, Vol. 17, No. 34 • By MARK HEMINGWAY
"Reality has a well-known liberal bias," Stephen Colbert said at the 2006 White House Correspondents' Dinner.
Jonah Goldberg
American Enterprise Institute / Peter Holden Photography
It's hard to say whether the line is original to Colbert: Variations on this specimen of bumper-sticker wisdom have been circulating on the American left for ages. In any event, such a self-righteous and self-negating declaration says a lot about progressive America—none of it good. It's even more revealing that Colbert's line was delivered at Washington's "nerd prom." That such a poor imitation of a deadly quip would provoke hearty laughter among the Beltway elite shows how much liberal clichés have insinuated themselves into political discourse.
Thankfully, the idea that only liberals have a grasp on the facts is one of the first notions Jonah Goldberg eviscerates here. Goldberg quotes Barack Obama, arguably the most liberal president in American history, repeatedly asserting that it's his Republican opponents who are "locked into ideologically rigid positions," even as he racks up $5 trillion in debt, attempts to expand the welfare state more than any president in nearly half a century, and his administration argues before the Supreme Court that the federal government has the power to compel every citizen to purchase health insurance. In contrast to those dastardly Republicans, of course, none of this radicalism is motivated by ideology: "The question we ask today is not whether our government is too big or too small, but whether it works," Obama declared in his Inaugural Address. David Axelrod has even gone so far as to claim that his boss is a "committed, practicing non-ideologue."
As Goldberg notes, this pragmatist pose is nothing more than "self-serving verbiage passing itself off as statesmanlike wisdom." Or, as he puts it more affirmatively: "Pragmatism is the disguise progressives and other ideologues don when they want to demonize competing ideologies." No doubt, many conservatives, pummeled for being honest about their ideological preferences by being told that their empirical judgments aren't liberally biased enough, have surmised as much. But they probably didn't know this tendentious argument has such an illustrious pedigree. Goldberg takes us on a jaunty tour through history and shows us how that noted pragmatist Napoleon employed very similar appeals decrying the supposedly radical ideology of his opponents on the way to amassing supreme power. The emperor even claimed to have coined the term "ideologue"—as an epithet.
Which is not to say that Barack Obama is a budding Bonaparte; he's not nearly so canny about his pursuit of power. All evidence indicates that the president truly believes he is unencumbered by ideology. Thus, candidate Obama argued in 2008 that his preferred progressive—er, pragmatic—political agenda is thwarted because rural Americans "get bitter, [and] they cling to guns or religion." Now ensconced in office, he has signed an executive order monitoring gun sales in border states in the wake of a fatal Justice Department gun-running scandal, and undermines religious freedom in the name of the mandated provision of free contraception. So it looks as if the president is foisting his own ideology about guns and religion on a country with a majority of religious gun owners who have their own opinions that often run contrary to the president's—and not the other way around.
Once Goldberg establishes that Obama and the rest of liberal America believe their own hype about their ignorant opponents trapped in ideological false consciousnesses, he's off to the races. This is a Russian nesting doll of a book, with the author unpacking and inspecting one unexamined liberal trope after another, including essays on "Dissent," "Social Justice," "Separation of Church and State"—and much more. If many of Goldberg's readers have intuitively rejected these half-baked conceits, they'll walk away from this read with some fleshed-out historical and philosophical reasons for being wary. And it's hard not to agree that these clichés are tyrannical, given how often the same dumb ones get recycled. While advance copies of The Tyranny of -Clichés were circulating in Washington, President Obama accused his Republican opponents of practicing Social Darwinism, a fallacious claim with little historical justification that's the subject of Goldberg's eighth chapter. The chapter on "Science" flays attempts to conduct pseudoscientific research proving that conservatism is a mental illness that short-circuits empiricism (see Andrew Ferguson's "The New Phrenology," on page 21).

Valerie Galloway
I'm influenced by old family photos, especially ones of my French mother and her sister. They always looked so glamorous with their fabulous hairdos from the 1960's. I'm also inspired by French New Wave cinema, and old American TV shows from the 1960's and 70's. Recreating some of these looks is a way for me to recapture moments from my childhood, and I relish enveloping myself in the spirit of that era.

What a great product! As a self described Budget Shopper, it took me a long time to finally purchase this picture for myself but I'm so glad that I finally pulled the proverbial trigger. Every time I walk by the picture, it makes me smile a little. The detail in her hair is just great.
Uncommon Goods tends to have inventory of a product for a while (1-2 years) but there comes a day that they no longer carry the product. I knew if I wanted this picture in my life, I would need to act sooner than later. I think it's been about a year since I initially spotted it.
I thought I might not like the stark white matte but it all works well together. Love love love this piece of art!

Kissimmee, FL -- The Beloit College Softball team dropped a pair of close games on day two of their stay at the Rebel Spring Games, Falling to Widener University 6-4 and to Alverno College 4-3.
Against Alverno, the Bucs took a 3-2 lead into the seventh inning before the Inferno scored twice in the bottom of the seventh, the winning run crossing on an infield single.
Beloit jumped on top first in the top of the opening inning when Laura Byrne squeezed in a run.
Alverno came back with two in the third on four straight singles to take the lead before the Bucs tied it in the fourth on Allegera Stanton's single.
The Buccaneers re-took the lead in the fifth when Sarah Stariha, who went 2-4 in the game, scored on a passed ball, setting the stage for the Inferno's last inning comeback.
In the first game vs. Widener, the Pride jumped on top with two in the first before the Bucs cut the lead in half in the bottom of the second when Stanton scored from third on an illegal WU pitch.
Widener increased their lead to 3-1 in the third and then scored twice in the fourth to make it 5-1. Another run in the sixth made it 6-1 before the Bucs started a comeback, scoring three times in the bottom of the sixth.
McKenzie Falker and Tess Jacquez each had RBI's in the inning while Falker scored the third run on an errant throw to third by the Widener catcher. But that was as close as Beloit would get as both teams went scoreless in the seventh.
The Buccaneers play Alverno again in the first of two games on Wednesday followed by a contest against Rochester Institute of Technology. Action begins at 1:00 p.m. EST.
