I bought the small tube of this product to try out and I'm glad I did. I really dislike it. I have oily and acne prone skin and this did nothing to help my foundation stay on or keep me from getting oily. It also broke me out. I will not be repurchasing this and will give this little tube to my mother who has dry, mature skin.

It felt more like a face moisturizer for me and not so much a primer. I guess it helps my makeup stay on a little more than usual but really, I feel like I can go without it and I wouldn't even notice a difference. Overall, I would not repurchase.

When compared to other primers I've used such as Clarins, Laura Mercier, and Benefit, this one ranks as my least favorite. It does not smooth skin, smooth wrinkles, or reduce the appearance of pores as most other primers do.

I got a sample of this primer in neutral and tried it for the first time today. I have only used it once but I have already decided that I DO NOT LIKE this primer. I didn't mind that it was runny in texture (in fact, I thought this was a good point because you can use so little and thus, make it economical) and it dried on my face within a reasonable amount of time (less than 10 minutes), but the moment I put on my creme-to-powder foundation, my T-zone was oily - more oily than usual, actually! So I blotted my face with an oil-absorbing sheet and applied my translucent blotting powder to get rid of this oil, which fixed the problem only momentarily because every time I checked up on my make-up (every hour or so), my T-zone was just an oil well. This is the fourth primer I have tried (it was recommended by a salesgirl at Sephora) and although I was looking for a non-silicone primer (this isn't one, by the way), I decided to give it a shot (it was a sample afterall). I'm glad I didn't actually buy this without trying it first.

I had really high hopes for this product but it just didn't perform as well as I hoped it would. The texture is really runny, almost like a cheap Jergens body lotion. The smell is nice and not bothersome... but the primer actually doesn't help my makeup stay. I still have to blot and re-apply foundation. NOT WORTH THE MONEY.

It's a bit hard for me to rate primers. The first primer I tried did nothing. This is only the second primer that I've ever tried. It does make my skin feel smoother. I do believe that the makeup does last a bit longer with this on. I also like the smell.

It definitely broke my skin out. Nothing special. Too silicony for my combination skin. Also, mosttimes myskin feels irritaded the moment i wear it.

yes, it really controls the oilness on my face (i use it under hd foundation), helps to last my make up much more better during the day even when it is summer, i don't feel it on my face. But in the evening when i put off my make up, my combination oily skin is dry, hd primer burns my face, i see redness, i dislike this feelings. This primer works, that is why i use it but only on special event. I have two small free bottles but i won't buy the full size.

This is by far the best primer I've ever used. I love that it's like a serum and it soaks right into my skin. It doesn't leave a greasy film, or a silicone feeling like most other primers did on me. I love the scent - it's light and fresh. I love how it keeps my skin soft, oil free, but not toally matte. It controls shine, but also enhances my skin's natural radiance. I don't break out from this primer. I think the packaging is great with a pump. A little goes a long way. One pump for my entire face is enough. Within minutes my skin looks smooth and even toned.

Akin Gump, Biglaw, Boutique Law Firms, Contests, Crowell & Moring, Fabulosity, Fenwick & West, Holidays and Seasons, Manatt, Phelps & Phillips, Small Law Firms
The field of contenders for our third annual law firm holiday card contest was more impressive than ever. We received numerous nominations, and we thank everyone who participated. It took many hours to review the plethora of submissions.
We could complain about how some of you failed to follow contest rule #3, limiting the contest to "cards that are unusually clever, funny, or cool…. cards with some attitude, with that extra je ne sais quoi." But we won't; the holiday spirit has us in a good mood. You are all wonderful!
But some of you are more wonderful than others. Let's look at this year's finalists….
This year, because we had so many cards to review, we construed our submission rules very strictly. We did not consider cards from non-law-firms. We did not consider cards that were not formally submitted to us by email, with the correct subject heading. If we encountered technical problems when trying to view a card, we did not go to great lengths to try and fix them. And we did not consider any submissions made after our deadline. You're lawyers, so you understand the importance of filing your submissions properly and promptly.
Last year we had seven finalists. This year, because of the high number and quality of the submissions, we've upped the number to eleven.
Here they are, in alphabetical order, accompanied by short blurbs. Please note that most of these cards have SOUND, so you might want to turn your speakers off or down, or use headphones (depending on where you are; we decided to run this post after normal business hours so that more of you will be able to enjoy the music, either because you're at home or because most of your colleagues have left the office already).
1. Akin Gump: This is the third consecutive year in which Akin makes the final round of our card contest. This year's card, in the words of the Akin nominator, "is witty, playing on the legal profession and poking a bit of fun at ourselves, but it is also unique in that it was created using video (not flash) to allow folks to view it from most handheld devices. So many of our clients are mobile that we went the extra mile to send an ecard on a platform that works most easily for them."
In gently mocking lawyerly nerdiness, it's reminiscent of Akin's winning card from 2009. Also, it features a penguin (and we're suckers for penguins here at ATL). View their card here.
2. Crowell & Moring: The tipster who sent in the Crowell card explains its appeal quite well: "Not too shabby. The whole 'ugly sweater' theme and music is pretty funny, the card is interactive, and it's all for a good cause." Says a second source: "Kind of a clichéd concept, but pretty fun for a law firm." Check it out — and vote for your sweater of choice — here.
3. Fenwick & West: Last year, Fenwick made the honorable mention list; this year, they're in the finals. From Fenwick: "We are receiving very positive feedback, for the style, the balance of humor and traditional sentiment, and the fact that we included the entire firm."
The card is classy and fun, featuring the work of a very talented illustrator and heartwarming holiday ideas from Fenwick folks. Law firm marketing guru Ross Fishman admires it as well. See what the buzz is about over here.
4. Haynes & Boone: HayBoo actually provided the inspiration for our first-ever holiday card contest (in which they took second place). Fishman describes the appeal of their current card:
Another perennial holiday-card favorite, Haynes & Boone, did it right again this year. Wow. This is the third straight year they played off of their business cards, which can be risky if it looks commercial rather than magical. Yet again, it's beautifully done and actually worth watching.
You can examine their impressive card — which, as the nominator explains, "was filmed using stop motion animation to physically manipulate each object, frame by frame, and bring our characters to life" — over here.
5. Manatt, Phelps & Phillips: Last year's third-place finisher, Manatt is back with another highly entertaining offering. This card made me laugh out loud, quite literally, rescuing me from the drudgery of reviewing less colorful cards. A tipster raves: "Clever, funny, wholly entertaining. I loved it." A Manatt source adds: "Using core elements of Manatt's brand, we believe that we created a clever, memorable and legal-specific holiday card. Client feedback has been overwhelmingly positive."
And justifiably so. You can enjoy Manatt's 2011 holiday card here.
Keep reading — this post is on the long side, so we wanted to break it up visually — for the remaining finalists, and the chance to vote….
(Note that we didn't break this story up into eleven slides, one for each entrant, which would have been annoying. Consider this a Christmas present from us to you. You're welcome!)

Andrews, David
Thursday, 9 May 1974
Dáil Eireann Debate
Local Elections (Petitions and Disqualifications) Bill, 1974: Committee Stage (Resumed).
The Deputy is trying to show the Minister's attitude. (Interruptions.)
Has the Minister got a clerical officer——
The truth is out now and the Minister is caught redhanded. He has a member of his party running for election, a clerical officer.
The truth is out now. It is a pal of the Minister. It is typical of the pal-ism——
The Minister's attitude on this occasion and on many other occasions to the Opposition can be summed up in the well known expression: "Put a beggar on horseback".
When the Minister was in Opposition he was full of liberalism——
Now that this great liberal gets on the horseback of Government——
I am trying to explain the expression I used. When this great liberal was put on the horseback of Government——
I am trying to build up my soliloquy or my contribution, call it what you will, towards the point where I will reach the amendment before us.
I think I am entitled to give the preamble to that actual expression. We consider this to be an extremely reasonable amendment. I am trying to get to the psychology of the Minister's refusal to acce...
It is a very reasonable expression. When the Minister was in Opposition he was a great liberal and now when he is put in the saddle of Government he tries to grind the Opposition and that is why he w...
I am not making a personal attack on the Minister. I am just trying to explain the Minister's attitude in refusing to accept the Opposition's very reasonable amendment about the exclusion of clerical...
——from the terms of the Bill which is now before us.
I am not attacking the Minister in his personal capacity. I am attacking him in his corporate capacity as Minister for Local Government. I am trying to get to the basis of his reason for refusing the...
I am trying to explain the reasons why this amendment will not be accepted by the Government. I have to get to the basis of it and I must create my arguments on that point. I am trying to convince t...
I do not want to. He must be somewhere within the Minister's bailiwick. I do not know the man. I do not want to indulge in that form of politics.
The Minister is weakening. I can see that. The Minister admits that he has a clerical officer——
The Minister then admits that he has a clerical officer, a decent man—no doubt about it, I am sure—running in the name of the Labour Party and he is probably an influential man in that area, in the po...
That is what I say— influential in the Labour Party in his area and obviously influential with the Minister to the point where the Minister is prepared to stand fast on behalf of the man to ensure tha...
I am not indulging in personalities. I have not mentioned a name, good, bad or indifferent. I have not mentioned one name on the record of the House.
He could be Joe Blow, Joe Soap. He could be yourself —with great respect.
When the Minister comes to reply I know he will not be personal. The Minister is not capable of that as he has shown in the past. There is another aspect of Deputy Molloy's amendment which has not be...
Of course he would. That is an excellent point. The clerical officer would have an advantage over other councillors in that he would get free postage when writing as a clerical officer to himself as ...
The Minister is not being serious about this matter. We are in no way reflecting on the capacity or ability or capability of clerical officers. They are a worthy group of citizens doing a very good ...
I am just summing up my arguments.
The first point is that the Minister just will not accept the Opposition's amendment. It is an Opposition amendment and consequently is not acceptable. The second reason, as we have said, is that th...
I brought this matter up on a number of occasions. I know it is not strictly relevant but it comes up on the point of a clerical officer writing to himself in his capacity as local councillor. I beli...
I believe the time must come when local representatives are paid by the people because——
I very much appreciate the patience of the Ceann Comhairle and of the Minister on this occasion in listening to me with such attention. I know the Minister was very interested and I have no doubt tha...
I have not been here all the time but I am sure that after a discussion——
I wanted to hear the other side before handing down a judgment. There is no hope of my becoming a judge under the present Administration—that is by way of a joke.
That does not become the Minister.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Booterstown Marshes Preservation.
asked the Minister for Local Government the plans, if any, his Department have to ensure the preservation of Booterstown Marshes, County Dublin from building or road development.
The Parliamentary Secretary did not answer my question which was clear. It was: To ask the Minister for Local Government the plans, if any, his Department have to ensure the preservation of Bootersto...
This shows a total lack of concern by the Parliamentary Secretary and the Minister for Local Government about these very important marshes.
They will be encroached upon if a preservation order is not laid thereon.
Can the Parliamentary Secretary tell me the position in relation to these marshes?
This is more double talk. The Parliamentary Secretary says——
Yes, Sir, I appreciate that. The Parliamentary Secretary says that there are no firm plans before his Department. Are there any plans which are not firm or is there a possibility of——
No, Sir, I am not. I am asking the parliamentary Secretary if there is any possibility of plans which will bring about a road system which may encroach on these marshes? The Booterstown Marshes are h...
——and by ornithologists generally because it is abundant in bird life.
I want to put a supplementary question to Deputy Moore who has answered my question clearly.
With your permission, a Cheann Comhairle, I propose to raise the subject matter of Question No. 9 on the Adjournment.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - ACC Loans.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Damage to Telephone Kiosks.
Can the Minister make any comment on a recent statement in the news media to the effect that a certain individual is being driven mad by the telephones in this city and county of Dublin and that he in...
I referred specifically to ready access to this vital means of communication in an emergency such as fire, accident or serious illness. This is a very serious case where an individual intends selling ...
——in south county Dublin. Would the Minister cease propagandising himself and get down to the telephone service which is driving a number of people insane?
He was probably driven out of the house in a rage, arrived at a telephone kiosk and could not communicate. This to-ing and froing between his private telephone and the telephone kiosk was driving him...
We are sick to death of the Minister propagandising himself. We are bored with him. Put the telephone service in order.
Get down to the telephone service.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - County Dublin School.
asked the Minister for Education if he is aware of the urgent need to provide a site and school to replace Saint Brigid's National School, Foxrock, County Dublin, in view of the vast increase in the p...
Can the Parliamentary Secretary say how much attention it is receiving?
Can the Parliamentary Secretary say when the result of the considerable attention will be evident? Can he tell us in other words when they will begin to build the school?
I am grateful to the Parliamentary Secretary. That is basically the information I wanted.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Montessori Diploma.
asked the Minister for Education why the Benincasa course is not subject to the approval of his Department.
Could the Parliamentary Secretary state for the record the reasons why the experts refuse to recognise?
I must compliment the Parliamentary Secretary on the information he has given the House and I appreciate it.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Garda Border Pay.
asked the Minister for Justice the average weekly wage packet of gardaí on border duty; and the daily allowances payable to them in addition to their pay.
Can the Minister say why are the daily allowances reduced from £2.83 to £1.71 after 14 days? Is there some reason for that?
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Desertion and Maintenance Legislation.
asked the Minister for Justice when he intends to introduce legislation to give effect to the recommendations of the Nineteenth Interim Report of the Committee of Court Practice and Procedure on the s...
Will the Minister be introducing a Bill before the Summer Recess?
We cannot expect any legislation this session?
With whom is the Minister in consultation in preparing the legislation?
I take it from the Minister's reply that he basically agrees with the recommendations of the report in toto, more or less?
On the basis that the Minister agrees with the principle of the recommendations I take it that he will enshrine them in that legislation?

BP's Safety Drive Faces Rough Road
Bob Dudley, the new chief executive of BP PLC, has vowed to change the safety culture of the accident-prone oil giant in the wake of the deadly explosion and spill at one of its wells in the Gulf of Mexico last year. But the story of a little-known BP safety official on the desolate North Slope of Alaska offers some cautions about just how difficult a job that will be.
The day after the Gulf well blew out last April, killing 11 rig workers, Phil Dziubinski was suspended from his job and escorted out of his office in Alaska. The company said he was let go as part of a broad management overhaul. In a five-month skirmish, two government agencies rejected Mr. Dziubinski's claims that he was fired as retribution for warning of safety risks. His back-and-forth with the British oil giant, though, sheds light on what Mr. Dudley is up against.
Mr. Dudley has created a new global safety division at BP, a company that also suffered a 15-fatality refinery explosion in Texas five years before the lethal Gulf accident. He has given the division power to intervene in or shut down any operation seen as too hazardous.
The safety issue goes to the heart of BP's corporate culture, say some critics, who contend that compared with its Big Oil rivals, the company has historically been focused more on deal-making and less on safety and operational excellence. "Other companies were less aggressive on growth and more focused on their safety-management systems," says John Hofmeister, a former president of Shell Oil Co. "Changing the culture is hard."
One area where safety concerns have loomed large is Alaska's North Slope, home to BP-operated Prudhoe Bay, the largest oil field in North America. Workers at the field, which opened in 1977, have long complained of aging infrastructure and a lengthy backlog of needed maintenance work.
In addition, as thousands of Alaska oil workers retired in recent years, overtime has piled up, and some workers have complained of fatigue. This is an issue Mr. Dziubinski repeatedly raised with his bosses, once referring to it in an email as an "imminent safety risk." BP technicians on the North Slope work 14 days straight and it isn't uncommon for them to put in shifts lasting 16 or 18 hours, sometimes on successive days.
BP says it has taken steps to reduce Alaskan workers' maximum hours and won't operate any facilities unless it is sure it can do so safely.
As Mr. Dudley tackles the BP safety culture, he will be under pressure, not least from U.S. authorities, to show improvements. A U.S. presidential commission's report last month on the Gulf disaster said decision-making processes by BP and its contractors "did not adequately ensure that personnel fully considered the risks created by time- and money-saving decisions." BP says the report supports its own view that the accident was "the result of multiple causes, involving multiple companies."
BP "is working with regulators and the industry to ensure that the lessons learned from [the Gulf well] lead to improvements in operations and contractor services in deep-water drilling," the company said. Even before the report, BP said, it was taking steps such as changing its pay structure to better reward safety performance and risk management. BP reports fourth-quarter financial results on Tuesday.
Mr. Dziubinski became BP's ethics and compliance leader for Alaska operations in mid-2006, shortly after the company suffered a 4,000-barrel oil spill on the North Slope. That happened a year after the refinery explosion in Texas City, Texas, an accident that led a federal agency called the Chemical Safety Board to suggest BP managers didn't listen enough to what workers were telling them.
"Reporting bad news was not encouraged," the report said, "and often Texas City managers did not effectively investigate incidents or take appropriate corrective action."
Promising change, BP in 2006 appointed an ombudsman, retired federal judge Stanley Sporkin, to receive and act on concerns raised by workers throughout the company. For BP Alaska, the company set up a program to allow employees and contractors to raise issues without fear of retribution, placing Mr. Dziubinski, a veteran safety official, in charge.
At first, workers were skeptical. "I thought, 'Here's another supervisor from Anchorage...I'm going to have to be on guard with this guy,'" says Marc Kovac, a steward of United Steelworkers' Alaska Local 4959.
Suspicions faded, and employees soon began turning to Mr. Dziubinski with their grievances. Mark McCarty, a technician who sat on a BP health, safety and environment committee, says, "Phil was a bulldog in terms of making sure our concerns were addressed."
In 2006, BP decided to survey its Alaska workers. It had done this several years earlier and heard concerns about equipment such as fire- and gas-detection systems in need of upgrading, and complaints that cuts in staffing and training had made operations less safe. So BP re-interviewed several hundred workers to see if these issues had been addressed.
The review team, consisting of Mr. Dziubinski, three other managers and a few workers, found progress on some things, like pipeline inspections, but concluded that other matters, such as staffing levels and upgrades to fire- and gas-detection systems, still "need work."
BP's plan was to share the detailed survey results with the work force, according to the USW. Instead, BP decided not to. It declined to say why or discuss the issue.
At a meeting in March 2007, Mr. Dziubinski disagreed with a supervisor's assessment that the company was on track to fix all safety issues. Mr. Dziubinski said that several problems flagged by workers in the past still hadn't been addressed, and that BP was taking too long to deal with workers' current concerns.
"We tend not to listen to the workers," Mr. Dziubinski said, according to notes of the meeting taken by the USW's Mr. Kovac, who was there.
Mr. Dziubinski also was frustrated that BP had decided against releasing the report, according to Mr. Kovac. "That was the beginning of the decline of Phil's relationship with upper management," he says.
In 2009, Mr. Dziubinski engaged his bosses about staffing levels and the length of work shifts. North Slope workers' normal schedule was two weeks of 12-hour days and seven-day weeks followed by two weeks off. But overtime was common, and some workers told their company safety committees that people were showing signs of fatigue. "You had walking zombies up here," says Mr. McCarty, the BP technician.
The USW asked BP in 2008 how much overtime had been logged over three years. It turned out to be double the industry average, according to Glenn Trimmer, a North Slope technician who is secretary-treasurer of the union's Alaska local.
BP added several dozen people to its work force of about 2,000 in Alaska and changed its rules so that for all shifts of longer than 16 hours, approval was needed from what is known as an area manager. Later, BP stiffened this requirement for managerial approval, following a complaint to its ombudsman that some technicians were working consecutive 18-hour shifts.
Mr. Dziubinski, who had access to overtime records, informed his bosses about situations that concerned him, including one employee who had worked 36 consecutive days without proper managerial approval and who had logged 320.5 hours of overtime in a single month.
He told his superiors that at three "gathering centers"—facilities that separate crude into oil, gas and water—some workers "have excessive overtime rates that may require leadership intervention to decrease a safety risk."
His emails to his bosses, which were contained in the OSHA complaint he later filed and have been reviewed by The Wall Street Journal, said the rule requiring area-manager approval for shifts of 16 hours or more was followed only about half of the time.
In an Oct. 30, 2009, email, Mr. Dziubinski described the overtime situation as "an imminent safety risk." Citing shift patterns, he wrote to his bosses that "allowing the continuation of the 16+ hour work shifts would be seen by internal and external stakeholders as putting production ahead of safety."
Asked about the overtime issue, a BP spokesman said it "is being managed at the highest levels" of the company's Alaska unit. "We have taken measurable steps to reduce the maximum allowable hours," the spokesman said, adding that the company will "not operate facilities unless we are sure we can do so safely."
A facility called the Lisburne Production Center suffered a small spill in autumn 2009, which Mr. Dziubinski came to regard as symptomatic of a larger malaise. A worker there emailed BP two months later with a long list of equipment the worker described as out of service or not working well. Mr. Dziubinski investigated and later told the USW's Mr. Kovac, "The maintenance condition of [that facility] is in a poor state and BP management was not paying attention to it."
After he started emailing his bosses about the overwork issue, some of his responsibilities were shifted to others, Mr. Dziubinski asserted in his later OSHA filing. He also said a website where employee concerns were logged was changed, and he no longer received email notification of new complaints.
BP disputed these claims. A company lawyer told OSHA that "no effort was made to preclude" Mr. Dziubinski from access to new complaints and that Mr. Dziubinski remained "the single point of contact for roughly 52% of all concerns filed between January 2009 and May of 2010."
By May he was gone. On March 15, 2010, BP told Mr. Dziubinski, then 59 years old, that he wouldn't have a position in the Alaska operation after it was reorganized.
On April 21, while Mr. Dziubinski was still coming to work at his Anchorage office, management accused him of trying to contact other staffers who were being let go. Security guards escorted him out.
His suspension came two months after BP's ombudsman, Mr. Sporkin, had written to BP Alaska saying "we are concerned that the contractor work force has not received adequate assurances of non-retaliation for raising concerns about BP's operations."
BP says that "we expect and encourage our employees to raise safety concerns" and "have a zero tolerance policy regarding retaliation." Mr. Sporkin declined to be interviewed.
The company, in denying to OSHA that Mr. Dziubinski had been dismissed because of his safety activism, said he was terminated as part of a wholesale reorganization of the U.S. business that would shed 200 managers in all, including 30 in Alaska. A BP lawyer told OSHA Mr. Dziubinski's job performance didn't "reflect the level of competency or effectiveness" BP sought for the new organization it was forming.
Mr. Dziubinski's lawyer countered that his client had several years of consistently positive job evaluations and had received a bonus in 2008 and pay increase in 2009. His 2009 performance review described the numerous appeals workers sent to him as "a testament to his reputation and expertise."
"Phil did a fantastic job during a tough time for the company" and "had [my] fullest confidence," says a former BP Alaska executive who supervised him.
In July, an OSHA investigator ruled in BP's favor, finding insufficient evidence for Mr. Dziubinski's claim he was punished for pushing the safety issue. The Alaska labor department declined to disturb the ruling.
Subsequently, as Mr. Dziubinski was preparing a wrongful-termination suit, in the midst of the furor over the Gulf spill, he and BP reached a settlement, which is confidential.

Gold Cup
Currently, four different U.S. Gold Cup veterans – Michael Parkhurst, Frankie Hejduk, Josh Wolff and Gregg Berhalter – call Columbus Crew SC their home. As the United States is heading into the knockout stage of the 2015 tournament, we thought we share with you the Gold Cup highlights of each of them.
Sporting Director and Head Coach Gregg Berhalter
1998 was a special year for Gregg Berhalter. The defender returned to the U.S. Men's National Team after being absent for nearly two years due to injury. Berhalter made two appearances for the U.S. that year, including a start in the 3-0 Gold Cup win over Cuba. He was part of the squad that accomplished one of the greatest moments in U.S. soccer history, a 1-0 defeat of reigning World Cup champions Brazil in the semifinals. It was the team's first goal against Brazil since the first ever game between the two sides in 1930. The victory remains the USA's only one against Brazil.
Crew SC Captain and Defender Michael Parkhurst
Defender Michael Parkhurst made his first-ever appearance for the United States in the 2007 Gold Cup against Guatemala. He started two matches in the tournament that ended with the U.S. defeating Mexico 2-1 in the final. The Columbus defensive stalwart proved his value again in 2013's tournament, starting five matches and tallying two assists. As a right back, Parkhurst's converting on the little details made his inclusion all the more valuable. One example: After a deft touch to set up a pass out wide in the 2013 final against Panama, Parkhurst made an overlapping run to draw the defender with him to open up a U.S. cross into the box for the game-winning goal.
Assistant Coach Josh Wolff
We can thank Crew SC Assistant Coach Josh Wolff for helping bring home the 2002 Gold Cup title, as the former USMNT forward scored the game-winning goal in the 2002 final against Costa Rica. Of course, credit must be given where credit is due, as it was former Crew SC defender Frankie Hejduk providing the assist to put the U.S. up 1-0. Wolff's Gold Cup career didn't end in 2002, as the forward continued his goal scoring tendencies in 2005, slotting one home against Jamaica in the Gold Cup quarterfinals, helping the U.S. advance towards the finals, where the U.S. would end up claiming victory over Panama for the nation's 4th Gold Cup crown.
Frankie Hejduk
What would a Crew SC-Gold Cup tribute list be without Frankie Hejduk. The USMNT and Crew SC veteran made an appearance in five separate Gold Cups, never leaving the tournament empty handed. The wily defender played an integral part in the championship-winning squads of 2002, 2005 and 2007, providing a golazo of his own during the 2007 semifinal win over Canada, while taking home runners-up honors in 1998 and the third-place prize in 2003.
Crew forward Jairo Arrieta scored the second of Costa Rica's three goals in La Sele's 3-0 win over Cuba to open play in the 2013 CONCACAF Gold Cup. The tally was Arrieta's fourth goal for his country, all of which have come in 2013. Costa Rica continues on in the group stage of the Gold Cup against Belize at Rio Tinto Stadium in Salt Lake City, Utah.
Costa Rica advanced to the Final of the 2013 Cope Centroamericana on Friday night following a 1-0 win against El Salvador. Crew striker Jairo Arrieta started the match and played 65 minutes before being subbed off for Portland TImbers defender Rodney Wallace. Wallace scored the winner six minutes later to propel La Sele to the championship match.
Costa Rica will take on Honduras in the Final at the Estadio Nacional at 6:00 p.m. ET on Sunday.
Crew striker Jairo Arrieta and Costa Rica completed group play in the 2013 Copa Centroamericana Tuesday night with a 1-1 draw against Guatemala. Arrieta tallied his second goal of the tournament in the 12th minute to help La Sele finish at the top of Group A.
The Ticos will resume play in the semifinal of the tournament against El Salvador on Friday. Costa Rica previously claimed a spot in the 2013 CONCACAF Gold Cup with its 2-0 win over Nicaragua on Sunday. Cities and venues for the 2013 Gold Cup will be announced on Wednesday.
Costa Rica solidified its place in the 2013 CONCACAF Gold Cup with a 2-0 win against Nicaragua on Sunday night. Crew striker Jairo Arrieta entered the match as a 66th minute substitute on Sunday after providing the difference-maker in Friday's 1-0 victory over Belize.
With the win, La Sele sits atop Group A in Copa Centroamericano. The TIcos will complete group play Tuesday night against second-place Guatemala.
MATCH REPORT: Costa Rica 2 - Nicaragua 0
Costa Rica kicked off play in the 2013 Copa Centroamericano late Friday night, with Crew striker Jairo Arrieta providing the difference in the host country's 1-0 victory over Belize. Arrieta's 55th minute tally was his first goal for La Sele in five career caps.
The Ticos will resume play in the tournament on Sunday against Nicaragua. Copa Centroamericano runs until January 27 and the top five teams in the seven-team tournament qualify for the 2013 CONCACAF Gold Cup. However, Arrieta may not report to Crew training camp at that point as La Sele begins the Hexagonal round of 2014 World Cup Qualifying in Panama on February 6.

MS Dynamics CRM 3.0
... and does the following scenario present itself as an occaison when I could get away with doing so?
In an Asp.Net 2.0 app. I have a search results page. The results are diplayed in a GridView with paging and sorting. In would prefer to get all the data and do the paging/sorting in memory rather than adding to the complexity of the T-SQL. It's not so much the paging that bothers me as the sorting (that would be awful - I'd have to put the raw results in a table variable first, then query the table variable to get the paged/sorted results).
On any one day there are only about 100 clients who would use this web- site (not concurrently). The site shares a server with an even less busy site.
Q1: Am I right in thinking that this data should not be cached in the Data Cache because each client will have entirely different search results. (For instance, if two clients use the search page at the same time that will lead to inconsistenty. - as the second client's data is cached in the same Cache object as the first.)
Q2: Will it be possible to cache the DataSource for the GridView as Session object instead? (assuming the above problems with the Data Cache)
Q3: If I cache in the Session, apart from destroying the session object (i.e the cached data) on leaving the page - are there any other major considerations?
Q4: Would the DataSource need to be serializable for it to be storeded as a session object?.

Centre to begin bid process soon for second traffic entrance
by Celia Shortt
The bid process for the second traffic entrance to the Newnan Centre on Lower Fayetteville Road, including construction of a roundabout, could begin as early as next week.
"Hopefully the bids will go out for the roundabout in the next week or two," said Parks Avery, chair of the Newnan Convention Center Authority, at Thursday's meeting.
Avery reported that drawings and engineering for the project are finished and all that remains is to determine where the dirt will go once the grading on the site is finished. The authority is working on an agreement with Newnan city officials for where it will go.
"As soon as they (the city) determine that, the bid process can begin," said Avery. "That will happen very, very soon."
The bids to come in for the project will be sealed and come through the city. Avery hopes to have more information by the March authority meeting.
Avery also announced he and Newnan Business Development Director Hasco W. Craver IV will be sending a letter to Kim King Associates, LLC, about their current intentions for developing a hotel adjacent to the Newnan Centre meeting facility and the school system's neighboring Centre for Performing and Visual Arts. Kim King had been given exclusive rights to look at the site for 180 days to determine whether to develop it into a hotel.
Avery said it has been 211 days and the authority has not heard from the firm, and an update is needed because it is past time.
In other business:
• Newnan Centre Executive Director Carol Moore noted that the Newnan Centre was selected a 2013 Prosperity Award Winner by the Newnan-Coweta Chamber of Commerce. It will be recognized at the Chamber's annual meeting on March 5.
• The Centre's March meeting will be held at 5:30 p.m. on Thursday, March 20 instead of at 6:30 p.m. to allow for an event.
• Moore shared that the facility is continuing to receive more repeat business and new business. She also mentioned it has been featured in the "Atlanta Business Chronicle," as well as some bridal publications.

Scott Horton Interviews William Hartung
William Hartung, Director of the Arms and Security Initiative at the New America Foundation, discusses Lockheed Martin's close ties to leading neoconservatives and considerable contribution to US militarism; its domestic expansion into TSA agent training and contract work for the IRS, Postal Service, Census Bureau and FBI; Lockheed's work on the controversial TIA and TALON domestic intelligence gathering programs – going far beyond the role of a typical defense contractor into a big-brother domestic role; its extensive global forays in diplomatic and even peacekeeping missions that has effectively wrought a company-specific foreign policy; the many bought and paid for Washington politicians, including Buck McKeon and Dan Inouye, in Lockheed's pocket; and how watchdog groups like Project on Government Oversight are working to expose corruption and conflicts of interest.
MP3 here. (19:19)
William D. Hartung is Director of the Arms and Security Initiative at the New America Foundation and the author of Prophets of War: Lockheed Martin and the Making of the Military-Industrial Complex. His recent Tomdispatch article is "Is Lockheed Martin Shadowing You? How a Giant Weapons Maker Became the New Big Brother."
4 Responses to "William Hartung"
I haven't yet listened to the recording but Lockheed Martin RUNS THE SOCIAL SECURITY PROGRAM!. They have a contract to handle it's database among other things.
One reason we are hearing "social security will be insolvent and should be shut down" is that "they" (Lockheed Martin, Finanacial Industry, Barack Obama) want to move the money from social security so that it can be used for funding corporations instead of assissting people in retirement.
Barack Obama recently reduced the amount of taxes you pay social security and that weaken it. It's intentional and quite perverse.
The entire government is being privatized, even the dumbest organization on Earth, the CIA is largely privatized. Everything is "contracted out". Even killings, assassinations are contracted out.
What does that sound like?
It sounds like there is a new kind of Mafia and they have been taking over the nation for quite some time.
'They want to make the revolving door go much more slowly…' That's the best we can hope for, or should I say wish for ? That's our new standard of decency – they can rob us blind, of course, only they should space it out a little, sort of a corruption diet.
Reading this a thought came to mind: what in heavens will all these leashes do when the Empire finally exhales its last breadth? Oh, the mess!
But there is no "money in Social Security".
There is ledger somewhere in a government cellar saying "Social Security Trust Fund" in which there is a promissory note saying "The Government owes the Social Security Program 2.5 trillion USD and promises to pay (sometime)". That's all.
Meanwhile, any payouts come from current payins. But there is no coverage for future heavier payouts. Worse, the supposed "fund" has to be clawed back from the taxpayer. Very enjoyable.

Like a canned food drive, a diaper drive involves a simple collection bin and a lot of emailing, posting signs, and asking for contributions.

Thanks DrnknZag for posting that,
Thanks also to the folks from Mervin and Revolution Snow and Skate for a great day at Mission demo riding boards.
Perfect conditons for my first time riding boards with Magnatraction and it is as advertised, really held an edge through icy groomers.

Well it answered some questions and raised some others.
I rode a 157 TRS, 157 T. Rice HP, 159 GNU Altered Genetics and a 154 Box Scratcher for yucks.
What I found is that I really like the Magnatraction so I'm pretty much set on buying a LibTech or GNU. I also liked the hybrid-camber.
I liked the GNU AG the best; it was really fun for me to ride. It cruised through bumps, was fairly damp but still lively, turned really well and handled as much speed as I'm comfortable with while feeling stable.
The T. Rice was super lively, carved really well and just wanted to go fast. The TRS was a little mellower but great to ride, handled the chopped up groomers really well.
I think I could be happy with any of these boards.
I did really want to ride a LT Jamie Lynn but they didn't have one. The spec's are pretty similar to the GNU AG in terms of width & set-back so I that I assume I would probably like it. It is supposed to be stiffer too.
I'm not sure if one of the reasons I liked the GNU was that it was longer, it felt more stable to me. I also liked the set back. I don't ever ride switch and liked the feel of this and it sounds like it will float a little better in powder.
That raised the question of what length of board to buy. I've been told a lot lately that I should be looking at a shorter board than my current 161 but based on my test rides I preferred the 159 to the 157. The Jamie Lynn comes in 157, 157W & 160 and at this point I would probably get the 160 if I went that route and 159 for the AG.
All in all it was real productive for me having heard both positive and negative reviews about the Magnatraction plus all the boards I rode seemed to have been real well made.

There is no substitute for riding and seeing what you like best. It beats anything you hear or read. You didn't mention your weight, but that and your riding style dictate the appropriate size for each board. Sounds like you've pretty much dialed in to the size that fits you best - go with that, not what you're told. At 175 lbs., I ride a 2011 161 T.Rice (non HP) and can certainly give that board the thumbs up. You've narrowed to some nice boards ... good luck!

True enough. Had never done a demo before but will make an effort in the future to hit them up once in a while just to see what is out there. I normally don't like to go on weekends because of crowds but maybe do it once in a while if there are demo's.
I think you are right about sizing since everyone probably wants something a little different from their boards. I'm in that 170-175 range too and it certainly seems like 159-160 will work nicely for me. I would really have like to have ridden that 161 T. Rice to see how it compares to the 157 especially since they are a little different shapes.
Keeping my eye out for any deals that pop up for any of these boards in my size. Usually after Christmas you can get some sweet deals.

If you are thinking about getting one you should. Got my GF an Attack Banana and so far she loves it but we've only had two limited days on the slopes.
I didn't have time to ride it at Mission but got enough other rides in that I got what I wanted out of it.
Rode the LT TRS which I was told by one of the rep's is essentially the same as the Gnu Rider's Choice. Fun board.
Hope you make it up.

Pizza Gigi
Pizza Gigi has been serving pizza to UofT students and Annex residents for more than 30 years.
16 Comments
Sort By Oldest First / Newest First
Gigis is everything you would want from a late night pizza joint. It has served that purpose for a very long time and are not slowing down (ie, getting crappy). The dough is clearly made with love and care and no chemical dough relaxers, unlike every single chain pizza restaurant in the country (it's in their flour:). There is a mild yeast taste. What I like about this dough is that it has all three things right: it is crispy on the bottom and yet a bit floppy in the middle. The sauce is nicely caremalized but not too thick that it doesnt soak into the base. The actual crust is light, fluffy but slightly chewy and crunchy! In other words Napoletano style except that they are using. Some parts are thick and some are extra thin: thats why you eat the whole pizza! T
I get my pizza with just goat cheese and peppers. Fantastic, although next time I will definitely be asking for extra garlic and also extra olive oil (no biggy, I added it myself). This is the one thing that takes pizza to personal joy. My room mate asked "why did you order this weird cheese?" only to take a bite and then say "well that's, oh my god, that's just... nice". If you have never had a goat cheese sans mozzarella pizza, definitely give it a try (best with some potatoes, roasted onions and rosemary I think)
Honestly, to reiterate, i wish you could hear the crunch that this crust makes when you bite into it. Followed by low "hmmmmmsss...". Gutteral :P
He makes all the dough and sauce in house no additives.
Hands down, easily, THE Worst pizza I have ever tasted in my life... How and why people are even considering this a good pizza, let alone "the best in the city?" is sad. They must be delusional due to the fact its been around so long, so subconsciously their weak minds only accept it as the best as they manage to finish the pie.
I have to say I never tried a walk in single slice there, so I understand theres huge difference between delivery and that, But c'mon, this was just god damn awful.. First time in my life me and my girlfriend refused to finish a meal, and trust me We were HUNGRY. Gummy crust.... bland tasting cheese and toppings, soggy yet somehow f****g dry tasting.
Incredibly disappointing, NEVER get a full pizza from here... EVER
"How much for two large pizzas?
"Okay, that makes no sense, I'll take one."
Cash only.
"Oh, thanks for telling me at the beginning and not wasting my time."
I'm going to go finger myself.

Couple building first straw-bale home in Linn County
BROWNSVILLE, Ore. (AP) — If the Big Bad Wolf drops by, Don Andrews isn't worried about him huffing and puffing on his new straw house.
"No more than a person who builds a stick house," Andrews joked, nodding at the more traditional homes on School Avenue. "'Cause he blew that down, too."
Andrews, director of the nonprofit community service group Sharing Hands, and his partner, Cheryl Haworth, who retires this year from the FACT program at Greater Albany Public Schools, are building Linn County's first straw-bale house — at least as far as they and the county building department know.
The couple broke ground on their new home last fall. By the end of May, the foundation, wood framing and roof, along with part of the plumbing and part of the electrical work, had been completed. The hope is to be finished and moved in by Christmas, Andrews said.
Much of the work and materials is being done locally. The bales of wheat straw — some 325 of them — were purchased from Brownsville farmer Leroy Spurlin. Their plasterer, Geary Frost, lives just down the block.
The work of putting the bales together to make walls, however, was an international effort. About 20 volunteers from all over the United States and Canada converged on the Andrews-Haworth project May 30-June 4 for the work, part of a weeklong class organized through Strawbale.com.
Andrew Morrison of Ashland runs the web-based business and puts on workshops all over the world. Class participants pay to learn how to build the homes and put in a week's worth of work on a construction project. The project owners receive the labor in exchange for providing meals and a place to camp.
Haworth and Andrews joined one of Morrison's classes last fall and did a week's work on a home in Junction City, Calif.
Haworth, however, was sold on the idea of straw bale homes at least two decades before. Living in the heart of the nation's grass seed supply, she said, "I thought, how perfect! We should all be building straw houses."
A rich history
From reed huts to thatched roofs, humans have long used straw in construction. At that time in the mid-valley, however, little was known about its particulars. Haworth began reading, researching and visiting straw-built projects and convinced Andrews to sign on.
They liked what they learned. Morrison's work has indicated straw bale homes have roughly three times the insulation value of commercial framing and cost owners about 75 percent less to heat and cool. The compact bales are extremely resistant to fire, too: Picture trying to light a phone book as compared to a crumpled piece of paper, Morrison said.
A triple coating of lime-based plaster keeps the straw walls from exposure to mold or pests. Best of all, Morrison said, straw bale homes are made with a renewable resource, use less wood overall and make a place for what would otherwise be a waste product.
Haworth said she particularly appreciates the soundproofing qualities of the thick bales, which provide a sense of peace every time she enters.
"They just feel really quiet," she said. "It just has this cozy feel of enveloping you like a down comforter."
Up-front expenses
As for cons, a well-built straw bale home should save its owner money over time, but will likely cost more up front, Morrison said.
Andrews figures the overall cost of the three bedroom, 2,300-square-foot home will be close to $300,000, not including the land, which they already owned. Prices will vary greatly depending on the size and specifications of the structure and the amount of labor involved, not the materials, he said.
The bales take several days to install, compared with a traditional insulator who might be done spraying in an afternoon. For that reason, the couple chose to use bale walls for only the living portion of the home, not the garage; and only the first floor, not the second. Installing bales on multiple floors is possible, but requires a lot more time and labor.
In some areas, finding the necessary know-how among architects, contractors, building and planning departments and insurance agencies can be difficult, Morrison said.
"People say, 'Wait, you want to do what?'" he said. "It's a lack of understanding of what the process is."
A green construction state
From solar to living roofs — Haworth plans one of those next — Oregon has generally been receptive to forms of energy-efficient, environmentally friendly building.
The Oregon Residential Specialty Code began including straw bale construction in its permit procedures in the mid-1990s, said Richard Rogers of the state Building Codes Division. The complete regulations also can be found online through the Oregon Building Codes Division, www.bcd.oregon.gov.

Although neither the BCD nor the Oregon Home Builders Association track industry trends, both organizations say they'd be happy to help prospective straw bale builders find resources, said Rogers and Michael Freels, OHBA director of green building.
In Linn County, residential plans examiner Richard Pinkerton recommends calling building and planning departments with questions.
Andrews and Haworth say they enjoy explaining the work to passers-by, some of whom have become regulars. "We have half a dozen or so sidewalk supervisors," Andrews quipped.
And when it's finished, they'll be proud to show visitors the "truth window" — a removable panel in most straw bale homes that allows people to view the bales behind the plaster — "so they know you're telling the truth," Andrews said.
