Clinique Rinse-Off Foaming Cleanser Reviews
great producti love the rinse-off foaming cleanser. a little goes a long way and it removes my makeup without drying out my sensitive skin. love it. — 8 years, 8 months agojrpkyfan | 1 reviews
Decent, But Not GreatI was looking for a new cleanser to try, something that's simple yet effective. I picked this up at the recommendation of the Clinique lady at the local Nordies, and I honestly don't know if I like it. Yes, it's creamy and rich, and it does make my face feel nice and clean, which is to be expected from mid-high end brand. Perhaps it's the scent that bothers me. It smells really soapy. Or perhaps it's just too thick for my liking. But it does do its it just doesn't hit my sweet spot. — 9 years agotaiwanesegurl | 5 reviews
Good for oily skinI used this for years when i was a teenager, and loved it. The texture and light scent are so refreshing! It's also a strong cleanser; my face didn't feel oily after at all. However, once I was though my teenage years this quickly became much too overpowering for my skin. It left it tight and dried out feeling- when it started flaking (I was using good moisturizer!) I knew I had to can this. — 9 years, 1 month agomidori | 45 reviews
little goes a long wayI don't wear heavy makeup so this works well for me, clean but not dry. I like how easily it rinses off and how little you need, making it more economical than it might seem. — 9 years, 2 months agomink88 | 77 reviews
GreatI just received this as a sample and I love it. You only need a little bit and it foams right up to get all the dirt and makeup off your face. Since my skin is dry, I do feel a little tightness after cleansing. I just put moisturizer on after and I'm fine. I don't feel that it really dries my skin out. I definitely recommend this product - it's a great cleanser. — 9 years, 2 months agolarissa | 17 reviews
Refreshing and gentle cleanserI LOVE this product! A little goes a long way and it is easy on my sensitive skin. It has a fresh scent that isn't overpowering. I trust this cleanser to be gentle on my skin. It's great! — 9 years, 3 months agoMelissahoneyb99 | 30 reviews
AmazingI usually buy drugstore cleaners because they are cheaper and until now just as good, but the clinique lady convinced me to buy this because it specifically removes make-up and sunscreen...and wow I am glad I did. You only need the tiniest drop and you get a rich lather that removes everything and is not overdrying. Plus fragrance-free, a definite bonus for me. Great job clinique!! — 9 years, 3 months agoKate | 28 reviews

My Reasons for Reporting This


text:
The New England Revolution had not won in 10 matches. The Columbus Crew had not lost in six. With one result, both streaks are over.
The Revolution found a way to cool off Designated Player Federico Higuain and the red-hot Crew, earning a 2-0 home victory to snap a franchise-worst winless skid and halt Columbus' momentum in the race for a postseason berth.
Despite playing without starting strikers Saer Sene (torn ACL) and Jerry Bengtson (international duty), the Revs received valuable contributions from forwards Diego Fagundez and Dimitry Imbongo, with Fagundez' 53rd-minute shot pinging off the post to Imbongo in the center of the box, where he finished for his first MLS goal.
The game was put out of reach with a bizarre own goal in the 74th minute, as Chad Marshall attempted to head back a ball to on-rushing goalkeeper Andy Gruenebaum. He then stopped in his tracks while it appeared that he had a chance to clear the ball before it bounded into the goal to give New England a 2-0 lead.
The loss keeps the Crew, which could have jumped to third place in the East with a win, at 42 points and in fifth place, level with fourth-place Houston on points (behind on the goals-scored tiebreaker) and a point ahead of sixth-place D.C. United with all three having seven matches remaining in the season.
Match highlights are after the jump:
What did you think of the match? Surprised by the result? Are you second-guessing the Crew's playoff credentials after tonight? Still wondering what Marshall was doing on that own-goal?

NWF Organizes Citizens to Protect Urban Watershed
How can inner-city residents become more involved in improving their natural environment? That´s one of the questions the National Wildlife Federation is attempting to answer with its Proctor Creek Watershed Action Project in Atlanta.
The project focuses on a tributary of the Chattahoochee River that flows through one of the most polluted parts of the city. NWF´s Southeastern Field Office has organized citizens´ groups, businesspeople, the faith community and individual residents into a Proctor Creek Watershed Network that informs people about what they can do personally or through civic action to improve water quality and shoreline habitat.
Activities include a bimonthly Citizens´ Water Action Workshop, where topics range from creating a Backyard Wildlife Habitat™ site to community activism; and Adopt-a-Stream projects that are getting kids at three schools involved in monitoring water quality and cleaning up the banks of Proctor Creek.
To help spread the word about citizen action and water quality, the project published an informational door hanger titled "How You Can Help Improve Atlanta´s Water Quality" which was distributed throughout the city.
The network is also getting citizens involved in helping to identify land along Proctor Creek for possible conservation under the city´s $25 million greenway acquisition program.
"The education components and activities of the Proctor Creek project are designed to provide urban residents with the training, structure and experience they need to make sustainable changes in their neighborhoods," says project director Na´Taki Osborne, sustainable communities organizer in NWF´s southeast center.
Property Rights´ Advocates Dealt Major Blow by Court
A federal appeals court has rejected claims by a Florida developer that he was entitled to compensation from the government because environmental regulations affected the value of his property.
NWF presented friend of the court arguments on the side of the United States.
Agreeing unanimously with those arguments, the Federal Circuit Court of Appeals in Washington, D.C., ruled that the developer knew when he purchased wetland property on Sugarloaf Key that it would be subject to federal and state environmental rules. He had no reason to believe he could develop the property without regulatory approval, which "defeats his takings claim as a matter of law," wrote Senior Judge Edward S. Smith on behalf of the three-judge panel.
The developer, Lloyd Good, Jr., wanted to fill in 32 acres of wetlands to build a housing complex, but the Army Corps of Engineers refused to grant a permit unless he tailored the project to protect endangered species on the property. Good refused to accept those conditions and sued the federal government for "taking" his property.
"This decision is a major setback for special interests that want to use legislation and litigation to make environmental regulations too expensive to enforce," says Glenn Sugameli, an NWF attorney.
NWF Makes Case for Wolves In Northern Forest
Wolves are the missing link in the ecosystem of the 26-million-acre Northern Forest that stretches from northern Maine through New Hampshire and Vermont into the Adirondack Mountains of New York.
That is the theme of a new NWF publication designed to explain to the public why restoration of wolves to this area where they once flourished would be good for both people and wildlife.
The eight-page, newspaper-format publication titled The Missing Link: Wolves and the Northern Forest includes facts about wolf history and behavior, describes how reintroduced wolves have restored a healthy balance to the Yellowstone ecosystem and explains how a recovery plan would work in the Northeast. It also answers questions about the impact wolves would have on people, livestock and the local economy. (They don´t eat people; they rarely prey on livestock; and they also provide a boost to local economies through increased tourism.)
The publication lists readings, children´s books, Internet sites and teachers´ resources where people can learn more about wolves and suggests ways citizens can help support wolf recovery in the Northeast.
Congress Inches Closer To Passing Conservation Funding
NWF´s top legislative priority of guaranteed long-term funding for conservation is a step closer to reality.By a comfortable margin of 37 to 12, a congressional committee recently approved a bipartisan bill that would provide about $2.4 billion a year until 2015 for such programs as the Land and Water Conservation Fund, coastal conservation, state wildlife agencies and urban parks. The bill still must pass both the full House and Senate before it can become law.
The result of bipartisan cooperation rarely seen in this Congress, the compromise bill was negotiated by Rep. Don Young (R-Alaska), chairman of the House Resources Committee, and Rep. George Miller (D-California), ranking minority member of the committee.
In a massive grass-roots effort to move the process along, NWF persuaded 865 local, state and national organizations representing tens of millions of Americans from every state to sign a letter in support of guaranteed funding for conservation.
As the current bill moves through Congress, NWF will work for further improvements, such as making funding permanent rather than limited to a certain number of years and clarifying how money for state wildlife programs would be spent.
NWF Marks 25,000 Habitats, Launches New Partnership
NWF recently celebrated certification of its 25,000th Backyard Wildlife Habitat site and launched a partnership with the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center in Austin, Texas, to educate Americans about the importance of native plants for people and wildlife.
The 25,000th habitat site belongs to Cathy Nordstrom, an Austin resident who has converted her traditional lawn-dominated yard into a wildlife haven thriving with native plants. Her efforts were recognized in a ceremony at the Johnson wildflower center, attended by Lady Bird Johnson.
Through their new partnership, NWF and the wildflower center will create an extensive on-line database about native plants and the wildlife they attract. Organized by regions, it will allow people from Anchorage and Honolulu to Miami to find information about plants that will thrive in their areas, so they can provide homes for wildlife.
Plants native to the soil and climate of an area may support 10 to 50 times as many species of wildlife as nonnative plants and also require less water, fertilizer and chemical pesticides.
Cindy Nordstrom´s backyard habitat includes a wide variety of native plants as well as bird feeders and baths, logs, nest boxes and a bat house. To receive NWF certification, Backyard Wildlife Habitat sites must include food, water, shelter and a place to raise young.
For more information on how to create and certify your own Backyard Wildlife Habitat project, check NWF´s website for Backyard Wildlife Habitat or call 703-438-6100 for a free brochure. For further information about the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center, visit its web site at www.wildflower.org.
NWF Wins Round In Latest Fight To Save Wetlands
In an important decision for wetlands and waterfowl, a federal district judge in South Dakota has temporarily halted a government agency from weakening wetlands protection in that state.
The temporary injunction is a major win for NWF and one of its affiliates, the South Dakota Wildlife Federation. The two groups are suing the federal government over a new wetlands mapping scheme that would overlook and leave unprotected thousands of seasonal wetlands in the upper Midwest that provide vital breeding habitat for waterfowl. Identifying wetlands is crucial to enforcement of the nation´s Swampbuster law, which denies federal crop subsidies and other benefits to farmers who drain wetlands.
The Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), an agency of the U.S. Department of Agriculture, wants to rely on summer aerial photos rather than site visits to identify wetlands in South Dakota, a method that would miss temporary ponds that appear after the spring snowmelt. According to NRCS´s own estimate, as many as 525,000 of the state´s two million acres of wetlands could be reclassified as "non-wetlands" and drained under the new mapping plan.
Another study shows that more than 200,000 pairs of breeding ducks could be lost if the change is upheld, says Tom Darin, an attorney representing NWF and the other groups in the suit.
The court´s ruling means that the agency must continue using site visits to identify wetlands while the lawsuit is under consideration.
Maine Voters Approve Huge Land Bond Issue
By a landslide vote of 68 to 32 percent, Maine voters have approved a $50 million bond issue for land acquisition and conservation easements in the state.
Pete Didisheim, advocacy director for the Natural Resources Council of Maine, an NWF affiliate, says, "It´s a landslide for land protection." The council was a key strategist in the 42-group coalition that campaigned for passage of the measure. NWF aided the effort by sending an Action Alert to its Maine members.
The bond will enable the state to purchase land and easements for conservation, water access, wildlife and fish habitat, farmland preservation, and recreation, including hunting and fishing. It will be matched by $25 million in federal and private funds.
"A win of this size, over the protests of the property rights movement, not only guarantees protection of prime mountain and shore land in Maine, but also will make the state´s conservation agenda politically credible for years to come," says Don Hooper, regional organizer in NWF´s Northeast Natural Resource Center.
Other Parks Adopt Maine´s Clean Air For Acadia Campaign
An air-pollution education program initiated at Acadia National Park by the Natural Resources Council of Maine (NRCM), one of NWF´s affiliates, has inspired similar efforts at some other national parks plagued by chronic air pollution.
During the past two summers, NRCM volunteers have handed out more than 40,000 brochures to park visitors, explaining why Acadia´s air is sometimes as dirty as that found in downtown Boston or New York City. Park goers are urged to sign petitions and postcards asking their lawmakers to toughen controls on power plants and other sources of Acadia´s pollution. The thousands of cards and letters sent to Maine Governor Angus King have prompted his public support for cleaning up old power plants, says NRCM´s Karen Woodsum.
Last summer, impressed by NRCM´s success, the Izaak Walton League launched a similar education and petition-signing campaign at Virginia´s Shenandoah National Park, where pollution has reduced average visibility to a quarter of what it once was.
The Southeast office of the National Parks and Conservation Association has taken up the cause at Great Smoky Mountains National Park, which according to the association´s Don Barger is second only to downtown Atlanta in the East for the number of unhealthful ozone-level days per year.
Annual Meeting Set for Seattle March 16-18
"Shaping a Conservation Century" is the theme of NWF´s 64th Annual Meeting, which will look back on 100 years of conservation milestones and ahead to what the new millennium holds for planet Earth.
Special break-out sessions will focus on such current issues as wildlife restoration, salmon protection and recovery efforts, and trade and the environment.
Speakers will include Nina Leopold Bradley, daughter of the late conservationist, Aldo Leopold; Denis Hayes, organizer of Earth Day; and Marc Andreessen, cofounder of Netscape Communications.
As a special treat, attendees will get an advance look at NWF´s latest giant-screen film, Dolphins. Meeting goers also will have an opportunity to work side-by-side with children from the Evergreen School in Seattle to help restore the Thornton Creek Watershed and enhance a wetland area as a Schoolyard Habitats® site. On a second field trip, participants will learn how the city of Seattle manages the 90,000-acre Cedar River Watershed to maintain water quality and wildlife habitat within a forestry economy.
Plumbing Efficiency Standards Might Be Flushed Away
National standards that mandate lower water flows in faucets, toilets and shower heads sold in the United States could go right down the drain if some members of Congress have their way.
NWF, which was instrumental in getting the standards written into federal law in 1992, is now fighting congressional efforts to repeal the requirements, even though they have dramatically reduced per capita water use.
The bill´s sponsors, led by Rep. Joe Knollenberg (R-Michigan), argue that the federal government should not be involved in household water conservation.
Studies show, however, that not only are customers generally satisfied but also that the more efficient products have produced major financial and energy savings for consumers and communities nationwide. Since the standards were passed, average household water use in new homes has decreased 25 percent.
To learn more about this issue and what you can do to help, contact Peter Moreno, NWF, 1400 16th Street NW, Washington, DC 20036, call 202-797-6869.
Court Upholds Mexican Gray Wolf Reintroduction
Score another victory for endangered species. The U.S. Federal District Court in Albuquerque has dismissed a ranchers´ lawsuit challenging reintroduction of the Mexican gray wolf in Arizona´s Apache National Forest.
NWF was one of 14 organizations and individuals that intervened in the case. The Mexican wolf is the most endangered subspecies of gray wolf in North America.
In 1998, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service released three family groups of Mexican gray wolves into the Apache National Forest in eastern Arizona. The New Mexico Cattle Growers´ Association and eight other rancher organizations then filed suit, charging that the government had engaged in an unfair decision-making process and that it had introduced animals that were wolf hybrids.
Species Recovery Fund Encourages Wildlife Protection Projects
NWF has established a Wild Alive Species Recovery Fund to support innovative conservation projects that will directly improve conditions for one or more of the 25 endangered species featured in its Keep the Wild Alive program.
In the first year, the fund will award approximately 10 grants ranging between $3,000 and $7,000 to individuals or organizations that propose creative ways to restore habitat, protect habitat on private land, launch a species reintroduction program or otherwise improve the lot of any of the 25 plants and animals on NWF´s Keep the Wild Alive list. The selection committee will especially look for projects that can easily be replicated elsewhere or have the potential to continue after initial funding runs out.
The deadline for grant applications is February 18. You can access the list of 25 species and download an application from NWF´s web site at www.nwf.org/keepthewildalive.

My Reasons for Reporting This

There's a dry quality to Thanksgiving, which may or may not start with the turkey you eat for dinner. While the first-day-of-Christmas shopping frenzy known as Black Friday has begun—outrageously—to creep over into Thursday night at the big chain stores, most other shops and restaurants remain shuttered and silent for the day. As far as I'm aware, there are no bright colors associated with Thanksgiving, no costumes or ghost stories or gifts or alcoholic drinks to brighten things up or help you pass the time. Even nature takes on a stark look. Where I live, in the Northeast, only a few leaves still cling to the tree branches.
All of which, of course, is why so many of us love the holiday. There's nothing phony about it, there's less pressure, and there's less money spent—in fact, it's the last day for more than a month when you won't feel the pressure to spend money. The only trouble with Thanksgiving is that the one non-food-related convention that the nation upholds, dozing off to football games before dinner, is also a little dry. For some reason, the NFL has stuck with its tradition of having the Detroit Lions, one of its feeblest franchises, play in the afternoon, along with another game featuring the Dallas Cowboys, a glitzier team that has nonetheless managed to win just one playoff game in the last decade. Still, the games might not be momentous, but at least there's football. Without it, the highlight of the afternoon might be a Vin Diesel marathon on TNT.
Two years ago, on a Thanksgiving visit to my parents' house, I found a stack of sports books that I had loved as a kid. These were big, photo-driven coffee-table specials about baseball, tennis, boxing, the NBA, the Philadelphia Flyers, Sports Illustrated, the Olympics, as well as Arthur Ashe's great history of the black athlete. Mostly pictures with short bits of text, they were my introductions to sportswriting and the traditions of these games. I would flip through them and linger over them for hours, on the floor in front of the TV, in my bedroom, in the car, at my grandparents' house. One would even come along when we made a 10-minute drive to a restaurant for dinner. Flipping through them three decades later, I had a vivid recollection of virtually every photo. I could also recall the awe that I felt while reading the names and the descriptions of the old players; the fact that I had never seen them play only added to their legendary status in my mind.
Among this stack was the softcover coffee table book I had lingered over the longest: The First 50 Years: The Story of the National Football League. In its pages I had read about all of the manly, semi-Godly heroes from before my time: Gale Sayers, Chuck Bednarik, Ray Nitschke, Don Hutson, Johnny Unitas, Jim Brown, Dick "Night Train" Lane. I even had favorite players from the past. Despite never seeing a clip of him in action, my all-time favorite player was 1950s Rams' receiver Elroy "Crazy Legs" Hirsch. I'm guessing it had something to do with the nickname. At some point, though, I decided that I didn't like Hirsch as much as his 1950s Rams teammate and fellow receiver Tom Fears, whom I also had never seen. I guess I was getting more sophisticated in my imaginary retrospective fandom. I wasn't going to be taken in by a funny nickname anymore.
Opening the book again 30 years later, the first thing I noticed was that it was a more intellectual endeavor than I had realized at the time. The first page I flipped to had a quote from Marshall McLuhan's War and Peace in the Global Village on it. The second had this line, from classics professor G.T.W Patrick: "The game acts as a sort of Aristotelian catharsis, purging our pent-up feelings and enabling us to return more placidly to the slow upward toiling of our lives." Reading farther, it became clear that The First 50 Years, besides being a nice Christmas present for a 10-year-old sports maniac, was an attempt to make the case for football as an original American art form. The introduction states it plainly:
"For professional football is an art of its own, a thrilling art, an art against odds, The game is full of opportunities that showcase human daring and accomplishment, the powerful grace of modern dance put to a purpose against a background of impending pain. Accidents happen—a play goes wrong—developing combustible improvisations that galvanize the crowd and create instantaneous heroes."
Having imbibed and internalized this type of writing, it must have been an easy leap for me to begin reading real sportswriting, which I began to do soon after I closed these photo books for good. Curry Kirkpatrick and Frank DeFord in Sports Illustrated, Roger Angell's The Summer Game, George Plimpton's Paper Lion, John McPhee's Levels of the Game and Wimbledon: These books and writers all treated sports as an art, as something important enough to take seriously and think about, and they were all early favorites of mine. The First 50 Years seems to have been, without my knowing it, a place where the desire to write about sports was formed.
The second thing I noticed about the book was that it was published by the NFL. No author is listed. In place of a byline, there are these words: "Prepared and Produced by the Creative Services Division of the National Football League Properties, Inc."
In other words, it was propaganda. The book's attempt to equate football with art was, on one level, an attempt to justify its brain-and-bone-crushing violence. Alongside the quotes from McLuhan and classics professors are lines like these from the players:
"Let's face it, most of the people in our society enjoy watching one guy knock down another one."
"The fans wouldn't like pro football without the hitting. If you take away the contact, you take away the danger and discipline. It would be all fancy guys."
"This is one way for fans to take out their aggressions. I see them coming out of the stands, they are wringing with sweat, they are mad, they look as beat up as the players on the field."
"You see a tremendous block from the blind side and you can hear 50,000 "ooohs" all at once. So they must like it."
The book was sort of a printed version of the great NFL Films shows, which, since the 1960s, have turned the sport into an Olympian ballet of violence, and which I also loved as a kid (and still do). Their director, Steve Sabol, died earlier this year. His work was as important as any writer's in creating that blend of poetry and propaganda that's essential for sports fandom. Plus, Sabol hired the Films' original narrator, John Facenda, the so-called "Voice of God" (in real life, God was a newscaster from Philadelphia). See the NFL Films clip at bottom, narrated by Facenda, on the 1970s Oakland Raiders, a team that turned viciousness into a high art (and, unmentioned here, left one Patriot receiver paralyzed).
Until last year, I felt roughly the same way about football hits as the players quoted above. I liked seeing them, looked forward to seeing them, and believed there was something primal in that enjoyment. Now, with what we've learned about the damage those hits do to players' brains, I've found myself cringing a little when I see, and hear, two helmets collide at 20 miles per hour. Last year, I watched New Yorker writer Malcolm Gladwell say on TV that he believed football would increasingly be seen, like boxing, as an outdated, barbaric ritual, and that it might not even be played in 100 years. My reaction at the time was, "Ha! Only a Canadian would ever say something like that." Now, after a weekend in which the NFL news was dominated by the game-ending concussions suffered by three quarterbacks, and after seeing the Bears' Jay Cutler stare woozily at the ground as if he'd just been lobotomized, the thought occurs to me that Gladwell might be right.
(As a tennis player, I've also come to wonder about the idea that we have to "get out our aggressions." In that analogy, we're similar to an engine that periodically has to let off steam. But many of the times when I've done that on a tennis court, by screaming or throwing my racquet, I've haven't felt better or more relaxed afterward—I've felt angrier. The expression of frustration has only created more of it.)
Of course, football players have always known about the game's dark side. I was surprised to learn that, contrary to their public image, many defensive players do not foam at the mouth, or have an unquenchable desire to smash their opponents faces in. They do it because it's their job, and their coaches will bench them if they don't; but hitting is physically painful for the hitter, too. (I guess that helps explain the Saints' bounty gate.) Still, nearly all former players say they wouldn't trade their time on the gridiron for anything. I have a tennis partner who played football in high school. I've asked him which sport he likes better. To him, there's no comparison: "I love tennis, but I loved playing football. There's nothing like it."
I think Troy Vincent, a former Philadelphia Eagle who is now part of the league's safety committee, sums it up best: "Football isn't for everyone." In other words, even knowing the danger, there will always be a certain type of person (perhaps he was born with brain damage) who will still want to play it, will still live to play it. Just as there will always be people who want to see combat. Everything else is a bore; the danger is the draw. Or, as the Pittsburgh Steelers' Jack Lambert—nickname: Dracula in Cleats—once said, "If you don't want to get knocked over, go play tennis." (Don't be offended, tennis players, he also said, "Quarterbacks should wear dresses.")
So I'll watch football on Thursday, with Jack Lambert in one ear and Malcolm Gladwell in the other. Like most Americans, I'll enjoy it until I can't anymore.
Have a good Thanksgiving.

Addiction specialist Dr. Drew Pinsky said Saturday that pain medications likely led disc jockey DJ AM, a former drug addict who died suddenly Friday, away from his sober path.
"It very slowly and subtly reawakens addiction," Pinksy said of pain medication in an interview Saturday. "I'm not saying it was inappropriately prescribed, I'm saying he didn't know the risks."
DJ AM, whose real name was Adam Goldstein, was found dead in his apartment Friday evening. A crack pipe and prescription pills were found in the Manhattan apartment, said a law enforcement official, who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the investigation was ongoing.
Goldstein was 36 years old.
Pinsky is the host of VH1's "Celebrity Rehab," where he helps troubled stars get off of drugs and alcohol.
Pinksy said he believed pain medication Goldstein took for injuries sustained in the plane crash that required two skin graft surgeries reawakened his addiction to drugs. Goldstein had long preached sobriety and openly discussed his earlier addictions to drugs including crack cocaine and Ecstasy.
A medical examiner's office spokeswoman said Saturday that toxicology tests, expected to take weeks, are needed to determine what killed Goldstein. An autopsy Saturday was inconclusive, said the spokeswoman, Ellen Borakove.
Pinsky also expressed his grief over the loss of Goldstein. He said he considered himself a friend of the late star, and though they had not spoken for "a while," the two relayed messages to each other through friends and were "very close."
Goldstein was to debut his own show centering on rehab in October on MTV called "Gone Too Far," featuring Goldstein staging interventions with young people battling their own addictions. MTV said it has not decided on the show's future.
In an interview with The Associated Press last month to promote the show, Goldstein said that it was terrifying watching people go through harrowing addictions and it made him recall his own battles.
"I am a recovering drug addict. When I see it and I'm in their room and the paraphernalia and the whole lifestyle and everything, I still, 11 years later, have that little thing in my head that starts thinking, 'Oh, where's that? I wonder what that is?'"
But Pinsky laughed at the notion that being close to addicts may have caused Goldstein to relapse.
"That's not in any way the kind of thing that leads to someone relapsing," he said.
Pinsky called Goldstein a model for people going through recovery and said the disc jockey was selfless when it came to helping others overcome their addictions.
"He sponsors other people, and in his words, will go to the mat supporting people on their recovery," Pinsky said.
"He was a very supportive recovery person."
Pinsky recalled how when Crazytown's Seth "Shifty" Binzer, a former patient on "Celebrity Rehab," was going through his recovery process, Pinksy urged him to reach out to DJ AM, who was a former member of the defunct band, to help learn how to stay sober.
"He was someone I referred people to to learn about recovery," said Pinsky.
Which is why he finds the circumstances of his death so shocking: "It was so much of a surprise I have a hard time believing it."

Congratulations ... I have been looking a long time for a good and powerful mp3-tagging tool. There are lots of tools out there which have great looking user interfaces and great design, but are totally useless. I have been testing your mp3tag-software since one week ... and I really like it! It is a bit more technical than other tools but these technical things offer lots of flexibility! That's exactly the tool I was looking for. I will buy a licence in a few minutes. Just wanted to send you some feedback. BTW: I like the "lifetime licence" idea!

I have asian monolid eyelids and I think they are beginning to get droopy from weight loss. IS there a lift I can get to the eyelids without creating a fold? I do not want a double eyelid. Would like to keep the monolid, just lifted.
Asian Eyelid Lift Without Creating a Fold?
Doctor Answers 7
Possible skin removal
This may still require skin removal so an incision would be necessary. It depends on the amount of skin and fat over your eyes.

Eyelid rejuvination without creating a fold
Yes this is possible. The procedure (upper lid Blepharoplasty) can be performed without taking the additional steps of creating a double eyelid fold. Keep in mind however that an incision needs to be made in order to excise your extra skin so some degree of demarcation will be made along the eyelid crease. It will not be nearly as deep as one created on purpose.

Asian eyes lifted but not with fold created
This can be done easily. You just have to take out some skin and muscle to take away the tissues that you are droopy. You have to just not create the crease. These two surgeries are completely different and someone experienced in Asian blepharoplasty will know the difference and be able to do this for you.

Asian eyelid lift without creating a fold
It is very difficult to keep only the monolid during Asian eyelid surgery. As soon as an incision is made to remove excess skin, a crease will form due to that incision and create a double eyelid.
Depends on your anatomy
If it is only the eyelids that are drooping, then an internal incision on the underside of the eyelids can raise the lids [ptosis repair]. However if it is excess skin hooding, then only skin removal can be address the problem. The eye brows will also need to be evaluated.
Photos would be helpful.
Photos would be so very helpful.
The answer is that it very much depends on how your eyes are drooping. There are some options but so much depends on precisely what your issues are. As you live in Columbus, I can recommend Jill Foster, M.D. who is nationally regarded and I think you will find her very straight forward.
Keeping your Monolid
That is possible but the options aren't awesome. Number one is laser work. You could do something called the Affirm to tighten the skin. This is less risky for you since it's moderately invasive. You may find you like that one. Something a bit more invasive is a CO2 laser. Better tightening but increased risk of hyperpigmentation for you. Next would be Botox. This can give you a little non-surgical brow lift. . .it's very safe. . .but it is more temporary. Finally, and this may be your best option, a brow lift could help tremendously. You'd be looking at about a week of down time but depending on your anatomy, etc. it could be a good choice for you.
However, make sure you see a number of facial plastic surgeons before you do anything. I wouldn't waist too much time at medi spas for this kind of thing.
Best of luck

Thanks for that shared memory of your father (the Full Bird). I was lucky enough to meet a few guys that sound a lot like your dad. I didn't enter the AF until 85 though. Sorry to hear the dumb a** group were enlisted Air Force. I have no idea what came of their fate. I would just guess if they were lucky enough to finish the tour of duty they darn sure didn't get a chance to re-up. Myself being an enlisted airman then an NCO I would like to take this moment to apoligize for these dirt bags actions. I would guess they likely had a little cider on the drive out to the woods. Too bad it had to spoil your hunting trip. However, sounds like your father made it a great trip by taking the time to iron out the wrinkles (so to say) back at Wurtsmith. I liked that base. I did two tours of duty there.
May I suggest if you have time write down short stories of your father, you and all the things that you might forget in the years to come. You could pass it on to your kids or other family members. I am going to do the same real soon. My dad was a tank commander on the Czech border. He served there after WWII was over. He had a lot of interesting stories of the Communist Soldiers on the other side of the fence. Some real tight and hair raisers.
Thanks again for your post....

WASHINGTON - Congressman Howard P. "Buck" McKeon, Chairman of the House Armed Services Committee, made the statement below, following indications from the White House that suspected terrorist Dzhokhar Tsarnaev will not be treated as an enemy combatant:
"The White House's announcement today that Boston bombing suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev will be tried in a federal court, not by military commission, is correct and consistent with provisions in the National Defense Authorization Act. However, it seems premature to declare that we will not treat Tsarnaev as an enemy combatant since we do not know enough about his affiliations. As an American citizen, he would be tried in federal court regardless of his status as an enemy combatant.
"Where to try Tsarnaev is only one decision facing the President today, and probably not the most pressing one. What is vital in the time ahead is the suspected terrorist associated with last week's horrific bombings is interrogated fully - with a focus not on some future civilian trial, but on gathering intelligence to prevent future attacks. Congress debated these issues exhaustively in the last defense bill and arrived at a commonsense consensus designed to deal with precisely this circumstance. Clearly American citizens must be tried in civilian courts, but the same citizen, having viciously attacked his countrymen, must be exploited for his intelligence value before any trial begins."

Cirque du Xtreme
Even if you haven't seen Lords of Dogtown or its documentary-style precursor, Dogtown and Z-Boys, it isn't hard to imagine the enormous progress made in the world of skateboarding since the early days. Back then, street skating was something to do when the parks were closed, and freestyle was for geeks who wore tube socks and board shorts. However, if vert skating hadn't integrated all those flippity-dippity freestyle and street tricks, it'd be about as cool today as, well, tube socks and board shorts. And for all the hype and hoopla surrounding skateboarding maven Tony Hawk, it's hard to fathom the sport without him. Do you think the X-Games or the Gravity Games would be as popular had Hawk taken up basketball instead? One thing's for certain -- Tony Hawk's Boom Boom HuckJam wouldn't be around at all.
Now in its third year, Boom Boom HuckJam continues to push the limits of skateboarding, BMX biking, and motocross. Not only are the ramps bigger and the airs fatter but many of the tricks are choreographed among the three sports. Were P.T. Barnum still alive, he'd make those daring young trapeze guys learn how to ride a vert ramp. Or he'd do the smart thing and hire Hawk and his crew of HuckJammers -- skaters Andy Macdonald, Lincoln Ueda, Rune Glifberg, and Sergie Ventura; BMXers Mat Hoffman, Dennis McCoy, Chad Kagy, and Kevin Robinson; and motocross madmen Drake McElroy, Ronnie Faisst, Jeremy Stenberg, and Dustin Miller.
This year's big addition to the HuckJam course is the "Bad-Ass Ramp," a 42-foot roll-in that leads up to a giant launch ramp. That's a dicey enough feat in itself, but it doesn't end there; after landing on the opposing bank ramp (thus gaining even more speed), Hawk and his iron-balled buddies run straight up a 20-foot vert quarter-pipe -- and, hopefully, straight back down. If it's possible to go from zero to 60 in six seconds on a skateboard, this is how to do it.
Tony Hawk's Boom Boom HuckJam
Office Depot Center, 1 Panthers Pkwy., Sunrise
7 p.m. Tuesday, July 5. Tickets cost $25 to $87.25. Call 954-835-8000.
While it's beyond cliché to refer to Hawk as "the Michael Jordan of skateboarding," it's equally simplistic to refer to Mat Hoffman as "the Tony Hawk of BMXing" -- but it's an understandable comparison. After all, they're the biggest celebrities of their respective sports, and they tour together more than the Rolling Stones. Hoffman does backflips; Hawk does 900-degree spins. Hoffman is "Condor"; Hawk is, you know, Hawk. And though both fly higher and faster than Robert Downey Jr. on a 747, it's the motocross crew that really turns the danger up a notch.

Sixteen-year-old Michael Vizza swerved his dad's 2004 Chrysler van through a figure eight of orange cones set up in the parking lot of Wesley Chapel High School.
At the end of the maneuver, his van's tire brushed the bottom of a cone.
"Poor little kid standing at the school bus stop," joked Cpl. Julie Satre from the Pasco County Sheriff's Office, who guided him through the training exercise from the passenger seat.
Vizza, soon to be a junior at Wesley Chapel High, and about 80 other county high school students participated in a two-day safe driving course at the school.
The course kicked off Thursday morning in the classroom where students learned the ins and outs of vehicle maintenance. They watched videos of accidents and footage of someone thrown from a car because he wasn't wearing a seat belt.
But what really hit home was a talk from Maria Laidley, whose son Matthew, a Wesley Chapel High senior, died in a wreck last August near the school.
She told the students how there was no such thing as a good day since her son died.
"It gets to your heart," said Christi Via, 17, who will be a senior at Wesley Chapel High. "You don't realize how one person can affect 30 or 40 people, or even an entire school."
Laidley's death was one of several that rocked Wesley Chapel High.
Former student William "Brad" Sowers, 19, died in an accident on a desolate stretch of a Virginia state road in June.
Tabatha Pastrana, 18, and her friend Kristin Gaskin, 17, were killed in May when Tabatha's car flipped on Interstate 75.
In an effort to turn the trend around, Wesley Chapel now requires students to complete the safe driving course in order to receive a permit to drive on campus.
Thursday afternoon, superintendent Heather Fiorentino stopped by to watch the course, which began in Pasco County last summer.
"The kids who have taken it have enjoyed it and said they learned so much," she said as she watched the students tackle the driving component of the course.
The dozen or so students with driver's licenses practiced evasive driving, braking and steering techniques in the parking lot. They learned how to avoid overcorrecting their vehicles, which could result in a rollover.
Cpl. Terra Winthrop, Wesley Chapel High School resource officer for the past seven years, outfitted students with goggles that mimicked the effects of drinking.
Winthrop has counseled students through the recent deaths of their peers. As she watched them stumble with the goggles, she hoped that these lessons would prevent another loss for the school.
"If I can get through to one," she said. "Then I have done my job."

Dear Ms. Hauge,
As your local electric cooperative, we appreciate when members ask questions, voice opinions on issues, and get involved in their member-owned business.
It is that same involvement and dedication that built East Central Energy (ECE), 76 years ago, when the areas we serve did not have access to electricity.
For-profit utilities refused to provide electricity to rural Americans because they could not make any money doing so.
A group of local farmers banded together and formed a cooperative to bring electricity to this area.
Today, ECE serves over 57,000 members in east central Minnesota and northwestern Wisconsin maintaining over 8,000 miles of power line within a 4,300 square mile service territory.
This means there are about seven ECE members to pay for and support the construction and maintenance of each mile of line.
Compare this to the 35 members per mile for investor-owned utilities and 47 members per mile for municipal utilities, and the need for higher rates is evident.
The rate you stated for ECE only reflected the summer rate and cost of basic service. Our energy rate is 13.8 cents per kWh for the months of June through August and 11.5 cents per kWh September through May.
The difficult decision to implement a new rate structure was made after an independent cost of service study, conducted by rate analysts, confirmed that the co-op would not recover enough revenue to meet its financial obligations.
The analysis also showed that ECE's energy sales profile required a cost-based rate structure where fixed costs needed to be recovered through the cost of basic service rather than be blended into the energy charge as many of these expenses had been in the past.
The new cost-of-basic ensures that each member pays his/her fair share of fixed expenses and the need for some members to subsidize others is minimized.
Since our last rate adjustment in 2008, several factors have combined to drive up the costs of generating and distributing electricity. ECE is paying 21 percent more for purchased power, which makes up 60 percent of the co-op's expense.
ECE has taken many actions internally to reduce controllable costs. Retirements have led to revamped job duties, resulting in labor force reduction of 6.3 percent since 2008.
Savings have been realized by using innovative programs such as summary billing and retread tires on trucks. The cooperative is holding off on investments in new technology and making full use of technology already installed.
As a rural cooperative, we understand the financial struggles members face. We know jobs are scarce, and the decline in the economy has created additional challenges in our service territory.
We are committed to work with any member having difficulty paying their electric bill with programs like Budget Billing and energy efficiency and conservation efforts. For more information, call 1-800-254-7944 or visit eastcentralenergy.com.

The in vivo and in vitro mechanistic anti-inflammatory actions of cucurbitacin E (CE) (Citrullus lanatus var. citroides) were examined. The results showed that LPS/INF-? increased NO production in RAW264.7 macrophages, whereas L-NAME and CE curtailed it. CE did not reveal any cytotoxicity on RAW264.7 and WRL-68 cells. CE inhibited both COX enzymes with more selectivity toward COX-2. Intraperitoneal injection of CE significantly suppressed carrageenan-induced rat's paw edema. ORAC and FRAP assays showed that CE is not a potent ROS scavenger. It could be concluded that CE is potentially useful in treating inflammation through the inhibition of COX and RNS but not ROS.

Mike Trout joined another Hall of Fame club, although this is one he'd probably have rather avoided.
Trout finished second to Miguel Cabrera for the American League MVP, which was revealed on Thursday, making him just the 12th player to finish second in the MVP race in consecutive seasons.
The others include Mickey Mantle, Lou Gehrig, Ted Williams, Eddie Murray, Cecil Fielder, Stan Musial, Albert Pujols, Dizzy Dean, Johnny Mize, Sandy Koufax and Mike Piazza.
Trout received five first-place votes – one fewer than last year – from the 30 voters, two representing each American League city. Cabrera got 23 votes. Third-place finisher Chris Davis and fourth-place finisher Josh Donaldson each got one vote.
Trout's first-place votes came from Ken Rosenthal of FoxSports.com, Joe Posnanski of NBC Sports, Bob Dutton of the Kansas City Star, Tim Brown of Yahoo Sports and Brendan Kennedy of the Toronto Star.
Trout, 22, followed up his Rookie of the Year season in 2012 by hitting .323 with 27 homers and 97 RBI in 2013. He lead the league with 110 walks and 109 runs.
It was not enough unseat Cabrera, who improved most of his numbers in 2013 even though he didn't win another Triple Crown. Cabrera led the league with a .343 average, .442 on-base percentage and .636 slugging percentage. He was second with 44 homers and 137 RBI, finishing behind Davis in both categories.
Cabrera became the 13th player to win the award at least two years in a row, including Barry Bonds, who won four in a row. Pujols was the last repeat winner, in 2008 and 2009.

- garlic
- fish sauce (Thai Kitchen brand)
- red curry paste (Thai Kitchn brand)
- 1⁄2 c
- coconut milk (Thai Kitchen brand, regular or light)
- 1 c
- peanut satay sauce (Thai Kitchen brand)
- 8 oz
- chicken (thinly sliced - or use pork, beef, or whole shrimp)
Try this for something different at your Father's Day picnic.
In a blender or food processor, puree the garlic, coconut milk, red curry paste and fish sauce to make a marinade.
Skewer the meat or shrimp and place in a shallow dish. Cover with the marinade and refrigerate 4 hours or overnight.
Barbecue or broil the skewered meat for 3-5 minutes per side, until meat is browned and cooked. Check for doneness and serve while hot. Serve with Thai Kitchen Peanut Satay Sauce on the side. Makes 8 to 10 skewers. Note:
Bamboo skewers are usually pre-soaked in water to prevent their burning off during cooking. This is not necessary here, since the skewers soak in the marinade with the meat.
Tofu Variation: Cut ½ pound firm tofu into four slabs. Arrange on cutting board, cover with clean kitchen towel or paper towels and a plate. Place a weight on the plate and press the tofu about 30 minutes. Slice tofu into strips, but do not skewer. Marinate as above, then grill on rack, 3-5 minutes per side until browned. and serve.

Maybe the mile is just not my distance. This is the second week in a row that my "easy 1 mile" has left me feeling defeated.
I know I said I wasn't going to bring it, but I brought my Garmin. I started it and then switched the face to regular clock time, so I wasn't obsessing about my pace. As soon as I started, I felt like I was running in slow motion. Legs pumping, chest heaving… not really going anywhere (incidentally, this is also how I swim, but that's another post). But I tried to relax. I realized I still had my necklace on, which bothers me to no end, so I attempt to unclasp it while running. Success! Legs still going… I over dressed a little. It was over 70* and sunny, no shade, I should had worn a tank. No big deal. As I'm coming up to the supposed turn around ( I had to check to make sure my calculations were correct) I passed a huge hawk, (not even three feet away!), chowing on some delicious road kill rabbit. I'm always getting star-struck by nature and animals, but I was trying not to stare. I really didn't want her thinking I was going make a move on her tasty dead thing. Luck would have it that my turn around was only .10 mile from her, and as I turned back to run by her again, she took notice. I silently panicked, picked up the pace and tucked my pony tail into my hat. I've read too many stories of pony tails being mistaken for small animals by birds of prey.
I can feel myself being tired, and I tried to remember my form. But I really didn't want push too hard. When it beeped to signal the mile I looked down; 11:12. Five seconds slower than my mile last week. Maybe it was the sun, the heat or.. I don't know. But it really got me down. What does this mean? It didn't make any sense.
DH came home about an hour later and I was able to think a little more clearly (and optimistically) about the whole thing. Here's what I figured:
I'm not warming up enough. How do you warm up for a 1 mile run? I just walked briskly to the end of my block, but maybe that isn't enough. Any suggestions? I'm really asking!
The Biggest Accomplishment that I totally overlooked: I ran the entire mile, with out walking!!! And then my mom texted me and said she just did the same!! Progress .
Tomorrow is speed work and I'm very much looking forward to it.... I think it might be working

Juventus targeting Rossi
Giuseppe Rossi's agent Federico Pastorello claims that Juventus are interested in signing the striker.
Rossi, 24, has scored 15 goals in La Liga for the Yellow Submarines in one of his best seasons since leaving Manchester United and Juve are keen to add to their strikeforce in the summer.
"Juve have sounded out the ground, as is usual for a big club in this period," Pastorello told Tuttosport. "There was an offer [in January], more precisely for a loan with an option to buy and Villarreal rejected it. But since then several things have happened."
Asked if he is referring to a reported €30m bid from Tottenham, Pastorello said: "And not just that. I am also referring to the explosion of the player.
"It seems normal that an ambitious project like Juventus' marries well with Rossi's identikit. He is obviously a youngster of great talent with a winning mentality. If Giuseppe is Juventus' first choice or not is something only the directors know."

Blank Mind Empty Heart Album Release Party
Sunday, Sept. 16th 2012 at 8:30pm @ Glasslands Gallery
Drew Harris is the Canadian mastermind behind Germany Germany; a musical project that he classifies as "experimental electrogaze/feel-good hyperpop."
Blank Mind Empty Heart is his latest album. Stream it in full below.
"Blank Mind Empty Heart is a collection of songs I've been working on for the past year. Rather than get comfortable with the sounds I made on Adventures, I wanted to branch out, try some new things and try to create something unique. I'm really happy with Adventures, but I'd rather take some risks and craft something different." - Drew Harris
