The course that the world has been on for climate policy has created the conditions for failure.have all the technologies we need to quickly accelerate rates of decarbonization, then the only other driver of emissions reduction is a reduction in GDP. Yet if reducing GDP is not politically possible, then what necessarily must give way is the commitment to reducing emissions. That logic says emissions will continue to rise even in the presence of a cap-and-trade program if technologies are not ready at scale to rapidly accelerate decarbonization. To think that politicians are going to willingly impose discomfort or pain on their constituents is fanciful at best.
Emissions reduction goals will not be achieved by policies that constrict economic activity.increases emissions, I say, 'So what?' The people have a right to a better life."

WebMemo #2936 on Education
June 15, 2010
June 15, 2010 | WebMemo on Education
Congress will soon consider a $23 billion spending measure for public education. This money comes on the heels of the 2009 American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA)—the so-called stimulus bill—which contained $80 billion in K-12 education funding. Further, President Obama's fiscal year (FY) 2011 budget request seeks to increase discretionary education spending by 10 percent.
Since ARRA was enacted, states have continued to increase both teaching and non-teaching staff positions and have funded numerous infrastructure and school maintenance projects. Yet the Obama Administration claims that more federal spending is needed in order to prevent "catastrophic" teacher layoffs. Another education bailout from Washington would permit states to spurn fiscal prudence with the knowledge that the federal government will award them more taxpayer dollars during difficult budgetary times.
Why $23 Billion More?
Unspent Stimulus Funds. A portion of stimulus funding known as the State Fiscal Stabilization Fund (SFSF) was designed specifically to prevent public education layoffs and to backfill state budget deficits. The SFSF must be used by states to "help stabilize state and local government budgets in order to minimize and avoid reductions in education and other essential public services."[1] To date, states have spent just $28 billion out of $48.6 billion available through the SFSF.[2] While some states' phase 2 SFSF applications are still under review, it is unclear why many states report that significant layoffs will be required in the near-term without more federal funding from Washington given that over $20 billion in the SFSF remains unspent.
Creation of New Staff Positions. In May, Christina Romer, chair of the White House Council of Economic Advisers, stated that "hundreds of thousands of public school teachers are likely to be laid off over the next few months."[3] Education Secretary Arne Duncan echoed that warning, arguing that another $23 billion in federal funding is needed to save more than 250,000 teaching jobs.
Reports by states to the Department of Education (DOE), however, indicate that many states have used ARRA funds to create entirely new staff positions, a large number of which are non-teaching positions. In some cases, it is evident that positions "created" by states exceeded those retained by states.
For example, Georgia's second quarter report shows that ARRA Title I grants were used to retain 608 teachers and hire 276 new ones, to retain three high school counselors and hire 28 new ones counselors, and to retain 82 administration positions and fill 114 new ones.[4]
Nationally, the number of non-teaching staff positions has increased 83 percent since 1970—more than 10 times the rate of student enrollment growth.[5] States are using stimulus funds to fill positions such as Web site coordinators, directors of planning and research, janitorial staff, school support personnel, professional development positions, education coaches, homeless liaisons, IT support, transition coordinators, food service, office staff, family center coordinators, school psychologists, central administration staff, career specialists, behavior specialists, curriculum coordinators, technology coordinators, district coordinators, recess aides, consultants, directors of student attendance, athletic directors, and federal program directors.[6]
Increased Spending on Infrastructure. States are also using stimulus funds for extensive infrastructure projects. For example, Wyoming has not yet drawn down any of its $45 million in SFSF education grants but reported that "stabilization dollars will be used to fund top educational priorities for which shortfalls exist, i.e., library acquisitions and instructional excellence. … A large amount of these funds will be used for modernization, renovation, or repair of facilities dedicated for instruction or research."[7]
Expanding Non-Essential Programs. The DoED has required that a portion of stimulus dollars be used specifically for Title I programs for disadvantaged students. For some districts, Title I funding allocated through the ARRA doubled their regular appropriation. School districts must obligate at least 85 percent of this Title I stimulus money prior to September 30, 2010—that is, they must determine how funds will be appropriated among various programs prior to that deadline. In some instances, districts have found it difficult to spend money quickly enough, and others feel "frozen" by the attached federal regulations.[8]
In other cases, school districts are using this funding to create entirely new education programs. The San Juan Unified School District was concerned that it would not be able to spend ARRA funding quickly enough, so district administrators created a large new literacy program to keep school libraries open for six weeks during the summer. As a part of the program, new literacy coaches were hired for district-wide professional development. Portland, Oregon, now provides a five-week cultural enrichment program to Native American students, and the Bassett Unified School District in California used the new funding for technology training for parents.[9] Regardless of the worth of these programs, the dire situations of state budgets and emergency appeals to Washington for additional funding demand increased prioritization of essential needs before funding new optional programs.
Inefficient Job Creation. The proposed bailout is no model of efficiency itself. The Obama Administration estimates that another $23 billion in taxpayer money would save between 100,000 and 300,000 public education jobs.[10] If that is the case, then 300,000 education jobs would cost taxpayers $76,000 each—exceeding the average teacher salary by nearly $30,000. If 100,000 jobs were saved, each one would cost taxpayers $230,000.[11]
Long-Term Solutions Needed
If Congress appropriates another $23 billion in federal aid to states' education budgets, $103 billion will have been expended in the past 16 months on K-12 education. This is in addition to the federal government's annual discretionary appropriations for K-12 programs through the DOE, amounting to $50 billion for FY 2011 alone.
Long-term budgetary solutions are needed. Continuing to raise taxes and rely on more federal funds is an unsustainable plan for fixing state budget shortfalls and improving education. States along with the federal government have room to cut spending without jeopardizing teacher jobs or compensation. Instead of seeking another federal bailout from Washington, states should ensure that current funding is being efficiently spent on schools' essential educational needs.

Dayton Postgame: Gaven, Meram And More
The Columbus Dispatch - May 29, 2013 11:52 PM
Robert Warzycha made no bones about it: the Crew was in it to win it as U.S. Open Cup play began this season.
When the Crew opened with the Dayton Dutch Lions of the third-tier USL Pro, it had key players at a number of positions. Designated player Federico Higuain was at forward, veterans Eddie Gaven and Danny O'Rourke were in the midfield and starters Tyson Wahl and Gláuber were back on defense. The only player in the lineup not to see MLS action this season was goalkeeper Matt Lampson, and seven of the team's starters had started at least one MLS game this year.
The result was a 2-1 win and an injury to Gaven, who was carried off the field in the 85th minute. The hope going in, Warzycha said, was to jump ahead quickly and get some of his key players off the field in short order.
"We were hoping to score early so those guys wouldn't have to play as much," he said. "I didn't have anything set for the guys for how much they were going to play, but I was hoping to take some guys off before they would have to play 90 minutes."
Warzycha confirmed that Gaven was one of those players, but he offered few other details. With the Crew ahead 1-0, Matias Sanchez was set to check in but was called back when the Dutch Lions tied it in the 78th minute. The Crew took the lead back in the 84th minute on a Justin Meram strike, and Kevan George was set to check in when Gaven went down with the injury.
Warzycha would not say who Sanchez or George were set to replace, although George did replace Gaven after the injury. The veteran midfielder scored his first goal of the season and also assisted on Meram's goal before the injury.
"Eddie's one of the hearts and souls of our team," defender Eric Gehrig said. "He's been around for years now. You know what you're going to get out of Eddie every day. Hopefully everything's all right. We're just hoping that Eddie's goodwill and faith is going to help him out here."
Gaven is set to undergo an MRI tonight and hopefully we will have the results at Thursday's training.
The impact of having players like Higuain wanting to play in this game did not go unnoticed in the Crew locker room.
"I think that means that we want to win this thing," goalkeeper Matt Lampson said. "We want to win the whole thing and we want to win every game that we play. I think the fact that we have everybody on the team that has that exact same mentality should say something. Ultimately, it pays off because we got the win. Hopefully in the forthcoming matches we get the same intensity and the same mind-set from everybody on the team."
Said Warzycha: "We want to take this game very serious, and that's why Federico was on the field. He's the team captain and he wants to play, so that's a message for everybody that we're taking this game seriously."
Meram's winner
After he said he endured criticism for an inability to finish, Meram notched his first goal of the season with a right-footed bend from straight on that found the upper corner of the net.
"A lot of people have been criticizing me so I wanted to keep people quiet and put one in the back of the net," he said. "Today I just wanted to let everybody know that I can finish. I did it last year and I'll do it this year and I'm going to contribute as much as possible to this team."& amp; amp; amp; amp; amp; lt; /p>
Gehrig said he challenged Meram when he came on as a substitute in the 65th minute.
"Justin came on and I told him to change the game and that's what he did," Gehrig said. "I'm happy for him. He got off the schneid this year and hopefully it leads to more goals for him."
Meram has started the last two games with forward Jairo Arrieta suspended. Arrieta will be available for Saturday's home game against Houston, but an injured Gaven would create another opening in the lineup.
"We're bringing the guys off the bench and want them to change the game and actually he did," Warzycha said. "That was a very good shot from outside. He did what he's supposed to do."
Last gasp
The final seconds of the match did not go quietly. With Dayton pushing for a final equalizer, Lampson had his final save nearly bounce into harm's way before finally collecting the ball.
"I was saying I've got to have a word with the field crew because I completely slid," Lampson said with a laugh. "It's like I was going into second base. The legs went out from under me and my knee hit the ball and luckily enough I was able to get on it. We've got to see if we can sort things out. It could be from Rock on the Range. Who knows? Maybe we'll have to stop that."
Two minutes before Meram's winning goal, Gehrig was there to clear a Dayton attempt after Lampson made the initial save on a charging Brandon Swartzendruber. The deflection went back to the Dayton forward, but his final touch was saved at the last second by Gehrig.
"That's the epitome of a team right there and team defense," Lampson said. "I'm sure he was happy that I saved the first one and I'm really happy he was there for the second one. That's the epitome of this team, covering for each other and playing 100 percent for the guy next to us."
Gehrig went the full 90 minutes after also doing so Sunday at New York.
"I felt (my legs) today," he said. "I'd be lying if I said I didn't, but I love playing this game. We're not going to give any excuses and we're going to be ready for Saturday. We know it's a quick turnaround but it's one game at a time. Coach stressed that the most important thing right now is taking care of our bodies, so that's what we're going to do."

The Bible is under attack! We live in an age when the very idea of clear, objective, knowable truth is being assaulted—even from within the visible church. A growing number of pastors claim it's impossible to know exactly what Scripture means by what it says. They say the Bible is simply not clear—rather, it's filled with mystery and ambiguity.
Does that mean every doctrine you and I find precious is subject to new interpretation, doubt, and even wholesale rejection? Is the Bible really infallible and inerrant? Can we really know what God's Word means?
In Making a Case for the Bible, John MacArthur makes the case that God's truth hasn't changed. It isn't mysterious or veiled—He revealed it with sufficient clarity. This study will help you know why you believe what you believe, and instill in you a deeper confidence in the truth of God as revealed in His Word.

Now that it's mid-February, many brides-to-be are going to be setting off to a tropical location to host their big ceremony. As one of the bridesmaids, you have plenty of preparations to make before you big day, but have you thought about the weather? Investing in some water-resistant products like tube mascara and liquid eyeliner may be the best way to beat the heat.
Humidity is a big factor in a tropical location, and if you've ever worn eyeshadow or foundation during a humid day, you know how quickly your makeup can run. If you're wearing eyeshadow during the ceremony, be sure to prep your skin with eyeshadow primer. This will provide a strong base for your makeup that will prevent it from running or smudging throughout your friends' nuptials.
Mascara can be another tricky issue on an especially hot day, so make sure you use an lash curler beforehand. This will ensure that your lashes have the perfect curl and help to spread the cosmetics evenly over them.
With all of the stuff you'll need to pack, your cosmetics should be the least of your worries. A few water-resistant blinc products could be one less thing to cross off your to-do list.

The doldrums can get the best of anyone, and every day is an opportunity to focus on cultivating feelings of self-respect. TOPS Club, Inc. (Take Off Pounds Sensibly), the nonprofit weight-loss support organization, offers these ideas to improve self-esteem when on a journey to better wellness.
1. Stop comparing yourself to others. Trying to live up to or exceed someone else's personal best is a losing game. As the saying goes, "How boring would it be if we were all the same?" Focus on being the best you that you can be.
2. Compliment yourself regularly, either by looking in the mirror and saying something you like about yourself or writing it in a journal. Many times, we're quick to compliment others on their success but hesitate to do the same for ourselves.
3. Exercise consistently, at least 30 minutes of exercise several times a week, to strengthen muscles and to burn calories. Improve your physical strength, and you may feel a sense of empowerment that can dramatically enhance your self-esteem.
4. Simply smile. The mere act of smiling changes blood flow to the brain and can actually makes you feel happier and relieve tension. A smile sets off chemical and physical reactions within your mind and body, releasing endorphins that boost your mood.
5. Focus on your accomplishments. Forgive yourself for mistakes and focus on the positive by celebrating your victories. Consider writing them down so you can review and reflect when you're feeling down and need to renew your confidence.
6. Get the support you need to succeed. Join a weight-loss support group, like TOPS, which can help you to stay on track to accomplish your wellness goals. Fellow members will help keep you motivated.
7. Make a list of your positive qualities. Are you generous? Kind? Write down at least ten positive qualities about yourself and return to this list as often as needed to boost your morale.
8. Find something special in each day. Even if it's in a small way, do something pleasant and rewarding, like catching up on your favorite television show, taking a walk to the park, or indulging in a bubble bath. Or treat yourself to something small that isn't a food or beverage, like a manicure or a new piece of costume jewelry.
9. Eat better. Pay attention to your food choices and nourish your body. Buy healthier foods and prepare well-balanced meals that will help give you energy and feel like your best self – not sluggish and overstuffed.
10. Explore a passion. Whether it's a side job, hobby, or as a volunteer, pursuing your passion in even a small way can lead to a sense of purpose and significantly improve your overall happiness and quality of life.

Discussing the County Home
The financial state of county-owned nursing homes trickles down to the taxpayers.
According to a recent report on county-owned nursing homes in New York state by the Centers for Governmental Research, taxpayer subsidies have increased as homes have suffered higher losses.
Ron Johnson, Democratic candidate for county executive and a businessman who has a background in adult homes, said he can turn the County Home around to where it needs to be to be sustainable.
"It bothers me that we would sell an asset and not deal with the structural problems, our budget structure and our structural problems with the budget in the county," Johnson said. "We don't deal with it the same way that you sell the County Home, but you still have a continuum of care. Are we going to stop caring for people in the county? No, we aren't. So, it doesn't solve the problem. To sell the assets, then we have $16.5 million to put in next year's budget, it doesn't help anybody. It's a bad use of our assets (to sell the home)."
Of the county officials responding to questions by CGR, 29 percent reported subsidies of $1 million or less for county homes; 29 percent between $1 million and $4 million; and 17 percent up to $7 million. CGR said more than a quarter of county officials did not respond to the question.
As part of the survey process, CGR looked at audited financial reports, only to find "significant inconsistencies" in terms of how county contributions to their homes were recorded, and the extent to which any contributions were made from a given year's tax levy, as opposed to contributions from a county's general fund.
CGR also found county matches for IGT funds were not recorded in any financial statements about nursing homes, since they came from county general funds and not nursing home enterprise funds. It did find that, at some point, the taxpayers become responsible for payment of the fund balance.
"Even though county officials may choose in a given year to 'charge' a nursing home shortfall in revenues against the nursing home fund balance, rather than against the county general fund or tax levy, at some point the bill comes due to the taxpayers, as the fund balance becomes depleted," the CGR report states.
Current County Executive Greg Edwards said he is glad the CGR report found what he has been saying to be true.
"I'm very, very happy to read the very clear, no-nonsense statement: It's a fact, IGT is tax dollars," Edwards said. "It really flies in the face of these people who get up every meeting and state that the County Home isn't losing money. Well, it is, because it takes direct taxpayer subsidies to keep it operating. That's much different than say, the Sheriff's Department, because we have to have a Sheriff's Department. It's much different than the (Department of Public Facilities), because we have to plow our roads. There's no option to privatize those. In this particular case, there's no mandate to provide skilled nursing. With Medicaid payments available to everyone, it's no longer required to be a government activity, because that's what 89 percent of the population that are in privately owned homes, they receive Medicaid and Medicaid payments. For all those reasons, I was very, very encouraged that they stated that so clearly."
Vince Horrigan, who is the Republican candidate for county executive and a current county legislator, has voted several times in favor of selling the Chautauqua County Home. One of the reasons he is in favor of the sale comes down to the taxpayers.
"According to the independent nonpartisan tax foundation, Chautauqua County ranked eighth in our nation in 2010 – the latest data available – as having the highest property tax rate as a percentage of median home value," Horrigan said. "We must make tax relief a top priority in order to stop the loss of businesses and create new jobs in Chautauqua County. We all get an earful on the high property taxes. I believe that the majority of legislators do what they can to reduce the tax burden on Chautauqua County residents. We have had two votes on privatizing the County Home. One vote had a majority of legislators ready to sell to a proposed buyer but failed the required supermajority by one vote. The second vote did succeed in a supermajority of voters who voted to privatize providing we found the right buyer. There is no doubt in my mind that a majority of Chautauqua County taxpayers do not want to pay to subsidize the County Home."

Now Daniel Mark Epstein has produced an incisive and balanced portrait of the Lincolns, from their mysterious and troubled courtship in 1840 to his assassination in Ford's Theatre in 1865. For the first time, we can feel the full force of the tragedy that was the slow crumbling of their marriage, knowing it intimately from the first act to the last.
©2008 Daniel Mark Epstein; (P)2008 BBC Audiobooks America
"Intent on eroding the stereotype that Mary was mad and Abraham was saintly, Epstein utilizes some new sources to create a portrait of the Lincolns' marriage. In coolly objective tones, Adam Grupper narrates Epstein's detailed account of the couple's early years.... His informative reading fits the text well." (AudioFile)
This was one of the most interesting books, full of historically accurate and intimate details, that I have ever "read." The lives of two individuals and their subsequent marriage, when the two people are as interesting in their own right as Mary Todd and Abraham Lincoln, is immediately engaging. Toward the end, this book brought back vivid memories of a childhood trip to Washington D.C. and our visit to Ford's theater and the boarding house bedroom in which President Lincoln lay dying. The intensely personal view of Mary and Abraham and their relationship was so well written and narrated that when I finished listening, I could not wait to learn more. I went online and researched multiple topics about the Lincolns, Abraham Lincoln's assasination, burial in Springfield, and the available accounts of those involved in the assassination conspiracy. Of course, my next listen was another Audible offering, "Manhunt", the breathtaking account of the 12 day hunt for John Wilkes Booth. I highly recommend The Lincolns:Portrait of a Marriage for readers who enjoy American history or any biographical works. It will leave the reader anxious to know anything more that he or she can find out about this complex couple.
"Very Well Written"
As the previous reviewer notes you will learn a lot about the personalities of Mary and Abraham Lincoln. This is an extremely well written work with a ton of historical facts. I would highly recommend this, you will not be disappointed.
Books on tape -- every commuter's friend. American history is my choice but then, in books, as in music, I'm all over the place.
"Enlightening and Fair"
What comes through most in this lengthy and well-researched book, is that the author really doesn't like Mrs. Lincoln very much. Apparently, few did. I had no idea the trials and embarrassments that this kind man endured as he led his country into war.
Very, very interesting and compelling. Well worth your time.
"Wonderful but stopped at assassination"
I wish the author had continued to follow Mrs Lincoln after the assassination. I was looking so forward to that and was greatly disappointed at the abrupt end. She was so flawed that I knew after the President's calming influence had ended she would have been even more of a hellcat as her detractors described her.
I enjoyed his narration.
Could not stop listening to it-great history lesson.
"Very Good!"
I learned about the Lincolns' personalities that I did not know before. I thought it was well written and narrated.
An old broad that enjoys books of all types. Would rather read than write reviews though. I know what I like, and won't be bothered by crap.
"The down and dirty on their Marriage."
This ranks near the top. An in depth view on what made the Lincoln's tick. Lincoln was away so much of the marriage that Mary instead of becoming more independent, made her sons and neighbors take care of her.
Mary was the belle of the ball, but once she made a choice on who to marry her life did not match her expectations. She continually acted out in order to get her husband's attention, either by purchasing huge amounts of clothes and furnishings, or making friends with ruthless men who took advantage of her weaknesses.
The death of her son Willie was the unmaking of Mary. I don't think she was ever able to get over the fact of his death.
He had just the right nuances to the characters.
Too long to listen all at once. I enjoy an hour or two at a time to listen to books.
I am a retired Court Reporter and I LOVE books. All kinds of books but my favorites are mysteries and period books. I like civil war books and some biographies.
"The Lincolns"
I loved it.I thought it was very insightful and interesting. I've never been too high on biographies but I do like the Civil War era. I think, although probably a good president, they were both nuts.
I listen to Audible so that I can read and do all that Mom stuff as the same time. I do see the words as they are read.....
"Interesting View"
This is an interesting book. I have read much about the Lincoln and the Civil War but never from the viewpoint of his relationship with Mary Todd. Much has been made of Mary's state of mind after the asassination of Lincoln but this shows the basis of her state of mind and her devotion to her husband.
"Excellent inside look"
Fascinating look inside the relationship/marriage of Abraham Lincoln and Mary Todd Lincoln. I could not stop listening and in fact listened to it a second time so as not to miss anything. It let's us know that most of have stories to tell about our life and marriage, including the famous. I loved the humanness of Mr. Lincoln. I cannot wait to compare this to the current Lincoln movie when I see it. For those who love President Lincoln and need to know more, get this one.
Listening to this Lincoln story has led me to The Madness of Mary Todd Lincoln.

Reviews for this host's other properties
everything was perfect. thank you very much.
Apartment in a good location within walking distance to most attractions. Marcel and Marta were very helpful and we enjoyed our stay
From the first contact on the host was very helpful and available. We had a great experience in Budapest. The apartment was amazing and fit our need perfectly. It had all the necessary amenities and because it is a duplex, we could have separate things going on at the same time. The apartment is very close to public transportation and to all the main attractions, which can be done by walking. It is a great apartment, and whenever I go back to Budapest, i will surely book again this apartment. Thank you Marcel and Nora for all the support! Best,
Great flat and Nora was really helpful and nice. Would definitely recommend.
Good location.
Clean and comfortable.
Very kind and well organized.
Nice experience in a nice flat: comfortable, well equipped and located in an ideal position...to easily reach any point in the city (2 metro lines nearby and several bus stops a short distance). The street is full of pubs and discos, but the apartment is on top of the building, so it is very quiet. Ideal for 4 people (we were 4 adults). The elevator is present, but consider that there are 2 short flight of stairs at the end, if you have children and strollers. The host was very kind and easy to contact and gave us all the info we needed (also about restaurants, places to have breakfast, typical food to try and so on).
if you have children the last part involves two short flights of stairs: to evaluate in the case of children (and strollers)
Super friendly Nora was always available. The appartment was just what we needed: quiet and well located. We enjoyed every minute. Appartment was as described and shown, but going that extra mile with small kitchen details. All in all a pleasurable stay
It was great time in Budapest. The flat was clean and comfortable. Very close to the all known places. Nora is very helpful and friendly.

Hello Maecel
We had a wonderful holiday in Budapest .
The apartment can certainly recommended , large and spacious with everything we needed .
In particular, we were pleased that there was air conditioning . The apartment is close to everything , transport, shopping, etc.
The lodging (two bedrooms each with private bath or shower / WC) was absolutely suitable for our needs (two pairs). The central location for city trip well. The service really good: We could Qaurtier upon arrival already refer to about 12.00 clock and had it on the day of departure until 16.00 clock to leave.
Das Quartier (zwei Schlafzimmer mit jeweils eigenem Bad bzw. Dusche/ WC) war für unsere Bedürfnisse (zwei Paare) absolut passend. Die zentrale Lage für den Städtetrip gut. Der Service wirklich gut: Wir konnten das Qaurtier bei der Ankunft schon um ca. 12.00 Uhr beziehen und mussten es am Abreisetag erst um 16.00 Uhr verlassen.

Cover FX Liquid Foundation & Tinted Moisturizer Review/Demo
I'm back with another review! You all know how much I love the Cover FX line. Recently I had a chance to test out more of their products, including their liquid foundation, tinted moisturizer and makeup remover mousse. I'm loving all of these products for the summer as I transition to lighter products.
Click here for more!
Check out the video! I show you a demo of the foundation and give you a quick review.
Of course, here is a written review with pictures for those of you who can't watch the video.
Natural FX Water Based Liquid Foundation SPF 15 $40.00
I don't know what it is about Cover FX products, but I always notice that they photograph really beautifully. That applied to their cream foundations, and the same goes with this water based liquid foundation. It has SPF 15 but doesn't photograph weird. The product feels really good on and it really does feel nourishing. You can build this up for a nice coverage and it's a concealer and foundation in one. I'm a toss up between M60 and M80 depending on how tan I am.
Here's a completely un-edited shot of me wearing this foundation. Looks great right?
Skin Tint FX SPF 30 $42
I really feel like everyone should have a tinted moisturizer in their collection. Especially for summer, it's a great way to get moisture, coverage and SPF all in one product. The Skin Tint has a really cool mousse formula that blends in really easily and it even has line and pore filling properties. I use the Medium Light Shade and it gives me a nice glow. I think i'll definitely be rocking this on a daily basis for the Summer - in face I'm wearing it right now :)
Skin Prep FX $45
This is an anti-aging serum and primer in one. I already reviewed it along with the Cover FX Big Cover Kit here, but i've recently rediscovered this as a great way to lock in moisture. I pop it on top of my moisturizer and notice that my skin feels nourished throughout the day. This is a great tool for those of you with dry skin like me. Mind you, this is not a mattifying primer. It's more for blurring pores and lines.
Make Up Cleansing Mousse $28
This is a really neat and gentle, non-messy, foaming formula. It really gets the make-off without excessive pulling at your skin. Even the hardest, waterproof liners come right off. Use this with a q-tip to get smudges off without messing up your makeup, or use with a cotton pad for larger areas. You don't need to rinse this off either. I also like to rub it all over my face with my hands and then rise to get everything off. Don't do it more than once though because my skin was a little too dried out after.
Overall, thumbs up to all of these products. Cover FX comes through again. Mind you, these are pro level products so they do come with more of a premium tag on them. If you want to invest in good products for your skin though, it's worth trying out. You can find these products at Sephora or www.CoverFx.com

This DOES photograph beautifully! I'll have to look into it. I'm using tinted moisturizers these days because my foundation shades are all over the place going to Oman and then coming back to London and fading.
Thanks for the tip!

This does look really nice on your skin. I use the Cover FX concealer in my kit. It's good to know about some other products in the line.

Almost a third of Americans report sleep problems, so it's not surprising that sales of Ambien, Sonata and similar sleep aids are high: It's a $1.8 billion market.
Pharmacists filled about 48 million prescriptions for such non-benzodiazepines — also called "Z drugs" because most of their chemical names start with the letter Z — in 2009, according to health-care research company IMS Health. That's more than twice as many as in 2002.
"Everyone is looking for something to help them sleep," said Lawrence Epstein, an instructor at Harvard Medical School and medical director of Sleep HealthCenters, a network of medical centers and clinics for people with sleep disorders.
Z drugs such as Ambien — the first to reach the U.S. market, in 1992 — are less likely to cause dependency and side effects than the older generation of benzodiazepines such as Ativan and Dalmane.
Both classes of drugs activate the neurotransmitter that induces sleep, the gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) receptor complex.
However, the benzodiazepines also relax muscles and reduce anxiety. These effects can be beneficial but also have the potential to cause respiratory failure and other muscle-related problems. And they often left users feeling drowsy for hours after awakening.
Z drugs are more targeted; designed to activate a specific part of the GABA complex, they get you to sleep with fewer concerns about dependency and side effects.
Analysts expect patients to use more prescription sleep aids as generic versions of Z drugs continue to emerge.
A generic, less expensive form of Ambien (zolpidem tartrate) went on the market in 2005 and instantly "became a 'best-buy' drug from a safety, effectiveness and affordability point of view," said Jon Schommer, a professor at the University of Minnesota's College of Pharmacy in Minneapolis.
In October 2010, a generic version of Ambien CR was introduced.
Generic Lunesta is expected to hit the market next year.
Most Z drugs get you to sleep in less than an hour, according to the 2008 Consumer Reports Best Buy Drugs analysis, and their effects last at least four hours.
Market leaders Ambien, Ambien CR and Lunesta can sustain sleep as long as six to eight hours.
Epstein said both new and old classes of sleep aids add only 20 to 30 minutes to a night's sleep, on average, but even that amount makes most people feel more rested.
If you take one of these aids, doctors recommend that you go to bed immediately and allow enough time to rest.
After actor John Stamos appeared to be drunk on an Australian talk show in June 2007, he said he had taken a morning dose of Ambien to help with his jet lag. "Now I know that Ambien is an eight-hour sleeping pill, so if you take it, you better get eight hours' sleep," Stamos told TV Guide.
The Food and Drug Administration has approved Ambien and Sonata for short-term treatment of insomnia — up to five weeks. Lunesta and Ambien CR are approved for long-term use, up to six months.
None of the Z drugs has been studied or FDA-approved for use longer than six months.
With short-term use under the direction of a clinician, sleep aids should not cause big problems, Epstein said, but dependency and withdrawal effects remain concerns.
When patients stop taking sleeping pills, doctors say, they should do so gradually because they could experience "rebound insomnia," in which their sleep problems are worse than before.
And patients should be aware that the most-effective tactic is to attack whatever physical or emotional problems are causing sleeplessness.
"Sleeping pills are not going to cure you," said Charles Cutler, an internist in Norristown, Pa. "It's not like a shot of penicillin and you move on with your life."

Just as the incidence of cancer has become more common in humans, cancer in dogs is also occurring more often. In fact, according to WebMD Pets, cancer is the leading cause of death in dogs over the age of 10. And, VeterinaryPracticeNews.com reports that the disease is responsible for about half of all canine deaths.
Certain breeds of dogs are more prone to cancer, especially purebreds such as Golden Retrievers, Bernese Mountain Dogs and Boxers.
Pet health experts say dog spaying is one of the best ways to prevent your pet from developing certain hormone-dependent forms of the disease. However, many vets also suggest vitamins and nutritional supplements to boost your dog's immune system and can help reduce his likelihood of developing cancer.
According to DogAware.com, supplements including omega-3 fatty acids (especially DHA), selenium, bioflavonoids, bromelain, amino acids (such as arginine and glutamine) and vitamins A, B, C, D and E may be beneficial in cancer prevention.
Scientists are also studying other supplements such as curcumin and artemisinin to determine if they can help ward off the disease.
According to VeterinaryPracticeNews.com, in 2008, Americans spent $1.4 billion on supplements for animals. While many veterinarians support the use of supplements in dogs, they also caution owners to be careful when choosing and purchasing these products for their animals.
Vets say choosing supplements that carry a label from the National Animal Supplement Council (NASC) is important in maintaining your pet's safety. The NASC is a non-profit trade organization comprised of companies providing health and nutritional supplements that comply with a set of guidelines for good manufacturing practices.
"Some clients want to purchase supplements from wholesale stores, but there is little regulation and you don't know what's in it," veterinarian Dr. Carmine Bausone told the website. "It is better to purchase supplements created for animals when that is the patient they are intended for. I carry everything I prescribe to patients or suggest they purchase the supplement carrying the NASC label. Some supplements, especially Chinese herbs, may carry high levels of lead, mercury or other toxins, depending on where they are grown."
Those who want to utilize pet supplements for their cancer-fighting properties should speak with a veterinarian to determine which substances are likely to be the most beneficial for their pet. He or she may also suggest dietary changes and can help develop a personalized supplement plan.

Love soup? These 7 delicious heart-healthy recipes will warm your soul and fill your belly. From the traditional tomato to chowders and bisques, we've got it all... Roasted Tomato SoupRoasting the vegetables for this simple soup enhances their sweetness. To use fresh corn, stand an uncooked ear of corn on its stem in a shallow bowl and slice the kernels off with a sharp, thin-bladed knife.

Leek, Asparagus & Herb SoupLike a bouquet of fresh vegetables, this light but soothing soup will remind you of the warmer days of spring. It's important to cut the green vegetables into small pieces so they cook quickly but still retain their bright color. Chervil has a mild flavor, but it doesn't dry well, so use fresh.Serves: 6Preparation time: 40 minutes Ingredients1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil 2 medium leeks, trimmed, washed and finely chopped (1-1/2 cups) 2 cloves garlic, minced 1/2 pound new potatoes, scrubbed and diced (about 10 cups) 2 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth or vegetable broth 1 pound fresh asparagus, trimmed and cut into 1/2-inch pieces (1-1/2 to 2 cups) 2/3 cup snow peas or sugar snap peas, stemmed and cut into 1/2-inch dice 3 tablespoons chopped fresh chives, divided 2 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley 1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill 2 teaspoons chopped fresh chervil or flat-leaf parsley, plus sprigs for garnish2 cups 1% milk 1 tablespoon lemon juice 1/4 teaspoon salt, or to taste Freshly ground pepper to taste 1/3 cup low-fat plain yogurt for garnish Preparation1.

Remove from heat; stir in 1 tablespoon chives, parsley, dill and chopped chervil (or parsley). Transfer the soup to a blender and blend until smooth. (Be careful when puréeing hot liquids.) 4. Return the soup to the pan. Add milk and bring to just below a simmer, stirring, over medium heat. Stir in lemon juice, salt and pepper. Ladle into soup bowls. Garnish each serving with a dollop of yogurt, a sprinkling of the remaining chopped chives and a sprig of chervil (or parsley).Enjoy!

Tom Yum Soup with PineappleWe've added fresh pineapple to this spicy, sweet-and-sour Thai soup.

Serves: 6Preparation time: 45 minutes Ingredients1 stalk lemongrass, cut into 1-inch pieces 2-1/4-inch-thick slices galangal or ginger 6 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth 2 jalapeños, sliced 4 Thai lime leaves or 3 2-inch strips lime zest 1-1/2 cups chopped fresh pineapple 1 cup sliced shiitake mushroom caps 1 medium tomato, chopped 1/2 medium red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch cubes 2 tablespoons fish sauce 1 teaspoon sugar 8 ounces peeled and deveined raw shrimp (26-30 per pound) 1/4 cup fresh lime juice 2 scallions, sliced 1/3 cup chopped fresh cilantro Preparation1.

Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer; cover and cook for 15 minutes. Strain into a bowl. Discard solids. 2. Return the broth to the pan. Add pineapple, mushrooms, tomato, bell pepper, fish sauce and sugar. Bring to a simmer and cook, uncovered, for 5 minutes. Add shrimp and cook until they are pink and just cooked through, 2-3 minutes. 3. Remove from heat and stir in lime juice, scallions and cilantro.Enjoy!Nutrition Facts Per serving: 105 calories1 g fat (1 g sat, 0 g mono)62 g cholesterol11 g carbohydrates 13 g protein1 g fiber 596 g sodium252 g potassium Nutrition Bonus: vitamin C (58% Daily Value), vitamin A (19% DV)
Manhattan Crab ChowderIf you like Manhattan clam chowder, you'll love our delicious crab version. Take time to finely dice the vegetables, so the soup will cook faster. Look for precooked diced potatoes in the refrigerated section of most produce departments. Serves: 6Preparation time: 40 minutes Ingredients2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil 1 cup finely diced onion 1 cup finely diced cored fennel bulb, plus 2 tablespoons chopped fronds, divided 2 tablespoons minced garlic 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning blend 1/8 teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper 1 14-ounce can reduced-sodium chicken broth or vegetable broth 1-1/2 cups water 2 cups precooked diced potatoes 2 cups canned crushed tomatoes 1 pound pasteurized crabmeat, drained if necessary Preparation1. Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add onion, fennel bulb, garlic, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper, and cook, stirring often, until the vegetables are just starting to brown, 6-8 minutes. 2. Add broth, water and potatoes; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook until the vegetables are tender, 3-5 minutes. Stir in tomatoes, crab and fennel fronds. Return to a boil, stirring often; immediately remove from heat.Enjoy!

Curried Corn BisqueFrozen vegetables are perfect for making soups, and we particularly like the fresh flavor of frozen corn. This thick, satisfying soup gets a spicy kick from curry powder and hot sauce, but it's still on the mild side – to turn up the heat, add as much hot sauce as you like. Serve with a squeeze of lime or a dollop of plain yogurt and chopped scallions.Serves: 8Preparation time: 25 minutes Ingredients2 teaspoons canola oil 1 cup fresh or frozen chopped onions 1 tablespoon curry powder 1/2 teaspoon hot sauce, or to taste 1/4 teaspoon salt, or to taste 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper 2 16-ounce packages frozen corn or 3 10-ounce boxes 2 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth 2 cups water 1 cup "lite" or reduced-fat coconut milk Preparation1. Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft, about 3 minutes. Add curry powder, hot sauce, salt and pepper, and stir to coat the onions. Stir in corn, broth and water; increase the heat to high and bring the mixture to a boil. 2. Remove from heat and purée in a blender or food processor (in batches, if necessary) into a homogeneous mixture that still has some texture. Pour the soup into a clean pot, add coconut milk and heat through. Serve hot or cold. Enjoy!

Pasta Bean SoupWith basic canned goods and a few other staples, you can make this comforting soup in just minutes. The trick to achieving a full-bodied homemade flavor from canned chicken broth is to freshen it up with a handful of herbs, some garlic cloves and crushed red pepper. For a meatier flavor, add a little crumbled cooked Italian turkey sausage to the soup.Serves: 8Preparation time: 35 minutesIngredients4 14-ounce cans reduced-sodium chicken broth 6 cloves garlic, crushed and peeled 4 4-inch sprigs fresh rosemary or 1 tablespoon dried 1/8-1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper 1 15-1/2-ounce or 19-ounce can cannellini (white kidney) beans, rinsed, divided 1 14-1/2-ounce can diced tomatoes 1 cup medium pasta shells or orecchiette 2 cups individually quick-frozen spinach (6 ounces) 6 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil (optional) 6 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan cheese Preparation 1. Combine broth, garlic, rosemary and crushed red pepper in a 4- to 6-quart Dutch oven or soup pot; bring to a simmer. Partially cover and simmer over medium-low heat for 20 minutes to intensify flavor. Meanwhile, mash 1 cup beans in a small bowl. 2. Scoop garlic cloves and rosemary from the broth with a slotted spoon (or pass the soup through a strainer and return to the pot). Add mashed and whole beans to the broth, along with tomatoes; return to a simmer. Stir in pasta, cover and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the pasta is just tender, 10-12 minutes.3. Stir in spinach, cover and cook just until the spinach has thawed, 2-3 minutes. Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish each serving with a drizzle of oil, if desired, and a sprinkling of Parmesan.

"And she said, 'Hey, boy, do you mind taking me home tonight, cuz' I ain't never see a country boy with tires on his truck this high.'" Jake Owen. "Eight Second Ride."
Out here, it seems like the only thing a lot of people like more than their trucks is the art of raising them up. Followed closely by a mud-bogging hole or field filled with red Virginia clay that's just waiting to get torn up by those lifted trucks.
Now, I don't say this from experience, as my workhorse consists of a highly functional but decidedly tame, un-lifted F150. Rather, I make that call based on the number of lifted trucks I see around here, and the fact that they're often covered top to bottom, including windows, in mud.
Why do we have a love affair with lifted trucks, and why do we raise them up in the first place? For some insight, I turned to an expert in the field of lifting trucks – Chris Dye. He's the store manager at Super Trucks Plus LLC in North Carolina, and describes it as "probably Raleigh's only full custom shop." Chris and his crew specialize in transforming ordinary vehicles into amazing lifted trucks.
"Most people lift trucks to achieve a higher ground clearance," Chris explains. They do this to avoid bottoming out or getting stuck when driving off-road, and to allow for the fitment of larger tires.
Higher ground clearance? Sounds plausible, but my gut tells me there's another, more common reason that people lift their trucks, and it didn't take long for Chris to confirm my suspicions. "A lot of people lift 'em just for looks these days. They'll take a brand-new truck, lift it, and it'll never go off-road."
Chris said that one of the more common and popular requests when it comes to lifted trucks is a six-inch lift with 35's, with "35" referring to the tire size. These suspension lift kits can start out at four inches of lift and go all the way to 12 inches, or higher. Chris then began explaining other vehicle parts that get involved with suspension lift kits, including independent front suspension, shocks versus struts, drop cradles, larger knuckles and steering geometry, and this was about the time that I realized that lifting a truck might be more involved than I realized.
He went on to explain that once you maxed out your lift with suspension lift kits, you can still go higher by choosing a body lift. With a body lift, the vehicle body has to be disconnected from every spot it's mounted to, new spacers inserted, and then the body bolted back down to all its connecting points.
As for height, it seems like that's more a matter of personal choice. Chris said the highest he's ever lifted was 26 inches, and that was enough to clear a set of 54's. In his opinion, the maximum comfortable lift he'd recommend for someone's daily driver, as opposed to a show truck, is a 12-inch lift with 40-inch tires.
What do you think? Are you driving a lifted truck? If so, let me know your lift height and tire size, and what you think is the optimal set up.
"It's all about personal preference. If you're building a show truck, the sky's the limit," Chris adds.
As for my truck, if I were to do anything, I'd be inclined to start with Chris' recommendation of just a leveling kit. "It's your most basic kind of lift," Chris explains. "That's going to take most trucks and lift the front up about two inches so that the front height equals the height of the rear. This will allow you to go up one tire size from factory specs and gives you essentially two inches of lift."
Cost is another consideration when deciding how high to lift because the two seem to rise in unison. Chris said that a ballpark cost for a six-inch lift on 35's is about $5,000 to $6,000, but that he's done lift jobs that total over $20,000.
If you're looking for ideas on what others have done with their lifts, Chris recommends Mud Life and Four Wheel & Off-Road, as well as the online forum at Lifted Trucks USA. And, of course, you can always check out some projects that he and Super Trucks Plus have performed.
As for me, what do think I should do to it? Stick with the leveling kit? Go a little bigger and get a six-inch lift? Maybe just switch to bigger tires? Leave me a comment, and please include thoughts on how I can sell the idea to my significant other. Chances are, she's going to be less than pleased instead of asking me to take her home tonight because she's impressed with my truck's tire height!

TheStreet Ratings Top 10 Rating Changes
NEW YORK ( TheStreet Ratings ) -- Every trading day TheStreet Ratings' stock model reviews the investment ratings on around 4,300 U.S. traded stocks for potential upgrades or downgrades based on the latest available financial results and trading activity.
TheStreet Ratings released rating changes on 69 U.S. common stocks for week ending February 22, 2013. 50 stocks were upgraded and 19 stocks were downgraded by our stock model.
Rating Change #10
PS Business Parks Inc (PSB) has been downgraded by TheStreet Ratings from buy to hold. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its revenue growth, reasonable valuation levels and good cash flow from operations. However, as a counter to these strengths, we also find weaknesses including deteriorating net income, disappointing return on equity and poor profit margins.
- EXCLUSIVE OFFER: Jim Cramer's Protégé, Dave Peltier, only buys Stocks Under $10 that he thinks could potentially double. See what he's trading today with a 14-day FREE pass.
Highlights from the ratings report include:
- Despite its growing revenue, the company underperformed as compared with the industry average of 14.7%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues rose by 13.8%. This growth in revenue does not appear to have trickled down to the company's bottom line, displayed by a decline in earnings per share.
- Net operating cash flow has remained constant at $51.00 million with no significant change when compared to the same quarter last year. Even though PS BUSINESS PARKS's cash flow growth was minimal, the firm managed to surpass its industry's average growth rate of -52.76%.
- The company's current return on equity has slightly decreased from the same quarter one year prior. This implies a minor weakness in the organization. Compared to other companies in the Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) industry and the overall market on the basis of return on equity, PS BUSINESS PARKS underperformed against that of the industry average and is significantly less than that of the S&P 500.
- The gross profit margin for PS BUSINESS PARKS is currently lower than what is desirable, coming in at 33.00%. It has decreased from the same quarter the previous year. Along with this, the net profit margin of 25.38% trails that of the industry average.
PS Business Parks, Inc., a real estate investment trust (REIT), together with its subsidiaries, engages in the acquisition, development, ownership, and operation of commercial properties primarily multi-tenant flex, office, and industrial space. The company has a P/E ratio of 94.9, above the S&P 500 P/E ratio of 17.7. PS Business Parks has a market cap of $1.77 billion and is part of the financial sector and real estate industry. Shares are up 12.5% year to date as of the close of trading on Wednesday.

Woo!! Shawn moves ahead!!
Woo!! Shawn moves ahead!!
Song is now on the ice.
Really liked Carriere's program. Though not perfect, I thought he did a fabulous job considering his short training schedule prior to this competition. Looked much more at ease and was attacking the ice. Looked like he almost landed a quad toe. Hope his comeback continues. Still one of my favorite skaters.
I don't like Carriere's costume either.. and I'm bored by Song.. hence why I'm typing on here instead.
Doubled a quad attempt, fall on 3Lo, step-out on 3A, generally iffy landings.
VDP up next. Support the veteran.
Song's score is 117.89, 180.10 total
Speaking of ugly costumes...
KVDP on the ice. His costume looks like a bad attempt to rip off Weir's style.
His only mistake was doubling one of his triples. He opened with a clean quad.
Kevin didn't get as tired at the end as he did last season! I'm not sure how that's going to be scored.
Kev might beat Shawn with his TES.
Won't be as high as NHK.

MXR Studio Compressor
MXR M81 Bass Preamp Pedal
Excellent Birmingham store service - Dave A****
I was greeted by a chap called Dave and i explained i was interested in buying another guitar, a Fender Stratocaster to be precise. I explained i wanted to try a few options and in particular i was attracted to flashy looking guitars. I selected several to play and Dave took me to a practice room where i spent a couple of hours playing different guitars. His knowledge was excellent and he was very patient. Dave listened to what i wanted as a musician and provided the right equipment when i needed it followed by advice on the differences between each one. I settled on a very good guitar and a couple of pedals. If you are going to buy from PMT, GO TO THE BIRMINGHAM STORE.

Needed emissions reductions will cost 1 to 3 percent of world economic output, some studies find.increased by a program of public investment in green technology and emissions reduction that leads to 350 ppm. The other three groups adopt the common assumption that short-run unemployment can be ignored in long-run models. They generally find that the needed emissions reductions will cost an average of 1 to 3 percent of world economic output, for some years to come.
We can afford to protect the climate, and leave a livable world to future generations.year after year. In 68 countries, military spending exceeds 2.5 percent of GDP. In the United States and China, the top greenhouse gas emitters, military spending absorbs more than 4 percent of GDP. Both countries would be safer, not more vulnerable, if they diverted half of their defense spending to defense against climate crisis.

I really hope u guys got her aye that is sick an twisted but she's not the only one to blame what about the person filming it that's even worse. How can some one stand there and watch. That's even more twisted than actually doing it both should be locked up or really need some mental help serious help!! I could never do that to any of my dogs! she needs to have an order were she cant have any animals at all for ever!!!! Those pups could have had an awesome life like my pups do!! did u know they say that's murderers started off by killing dogs cats or even rats so wonder what she going to be like when she's older even more twisted in the head!!!(GIRL U NEEDA GET YOUR HEAD CHEEKD OUT CAUSE YOUR F***D STRAGHT UP)
This is extremely cruel and just sick. It is horrifying how she can just blatantly disregard life and viciously throw young puppies in a river. In times like this, I wish the police or heck, Anonymous is involved
WTFF r u serious. i hope they found her. shes a disgrace
this is so sad. im crying so hard. How can someone do this to those poor puppies!!!!!!! i hope she gets what she deserves!!!!!!!!!!!!:(
This is so imoral.. The only thing that comforts me is that Heaven will gain some good animals and that those who do these terrible crimes have chosen there fate and will go to hell.. Spay, Neuter, Adopt <3
It turns out she was found, but won't be facing any charges since she is too young to face a judge or do jail time. Which it really sucks
First I hope everyone here understands that we live in a society that has laws and I am sure you people would be the first to burn her at the stake, right in the town square. That is why we have laws. So all you extremists don't murder in the name of your cause. I mean you are saying she needs life in prison and to be put to death. She may need psychiatric help but I don't think the death penalty is right.
I am not an animal lover, never owned any pets – but I am not animal hater either.. Oh my god, I think she should be jailed for the rest of her life.. What a sick, SICK person!!! Those were little puppies, baby dogs… I really hope when she is caught, she doesn't get off without any punishment
I really hope you find this girl and lock her right away, she does not deserve freedom… 🙁
Seriously. She is one sick person!!!
This girl is sick minded and what will they do to her when they find out where she is and who she is?
I'd just like to say, I wouldn't be interested in the reward. I'm not a vegetarian, hell, I'm not even really an animal lover, however, I would like to see her be brought to justice. I may not be an animal activist, but what this girl did is completely immoral.
Why the **** would someone do this?? That is sick. I hope she dies.(:
well LISA.. the fact that these kids taped this horrendous act clearly shows that they weren't getting rid of the puppies since they live on a farm. They did it for disgusting reasons. This makes me sick! PETA needs to offer a better reward than 2k…
did they find her? She is a sick demon.
what ever reason this girl has to kill these dogs is not an excuse or even a reason. she should serve forever in jail and no she shoudnt be killed if we did kill her we are no better and all her life (no job, freedom would be hell to me)she should be kept in jail and the spectator too i am younger then her and yet i have more kindness, more brain, less stupidity, less cruelty
That is just SICK. Did I hear her say "Weeee" at the 23 second mark?! That's wrong on so many levels. I hope she gets caught and arrested really soon.
It's not considered wrong over there, this is a common way even on farms all over America to get rid of puppies and kittens. I'm just saying since America kills more livestock in slaughter houses than any other country on earth, tortures more lab animals than any other country and is overseas killing people as well, we are very arrogant to point the finger at the behavior of others! Kind of like Ted Bundy whining about how bad child molesters are.
Lisa, She may have had a bad life but that is NO excuse! Many people have suffered from beatings among other things and they STILL know right from wrong! That girl is just sick!!
Perhaps we should consider that because this girl was born in Bosnia during the time America was bombing Yugoslavia we have played a part in how she is. We bombed the area then split leaving the whole country with no jobs etc and a generation of tramatized kids. Where she is there's a high rate of teens hanging themselves and a high rate of glue sniffing. Many of the girls were raped as well. So she grew up seeing people being killed and day to day life is hard due to how we intervened but then we judge when she has no feelings over killing when she has had death all around her. People have a hard time feeling for animals when even the people around them suffer. I know people who live there and how their lives are. Since the war abuse of animals and women have gone way up.
qe pedo con esa vieja …pinche estupida de mierda !!!!!! no sabe lo ke es la vida!!!!!!!!
Thats sick. Why did she even do that?!?!?!?! what did they ever do to her
Its a pity there is'nt the death penalty for animal cruelty,God help us if that girl breeds!
