As per, http://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=57271 for quizzes and lessons this would help accomodate what we refer to as extended time. I think with one table the extension of times could be handled on a per user basis. I think the interface for adding the entries would be the more complicated part.
Bearing in mind the
bug, I often have to extend quiz submission times for students, I do this with a password and general extension but as was pointed out in other forums, this is confusing to other students, who think that they should be able to take the test and ask me what the password is.
FYI - Just to update here that in
MDL-14234 we were discussing a way of implementing adding time extensions for user activities. Peace - Anthony
adding 1.8, 1.9, and 2.0 to list of affected versions. I doubt this will be fixed in versions prior to 2.0. Perhaps we can get an updated fix version from Nick. Peace - Anthony
I've taken a swing at this. It's a big swing so I'm going to assume a miss followed by several revisions with your help. I've not undertaken a patch this big for Moodle core before so please offer advice where needed.
Modifications made (per conversation here, in the forums, and on
- I created a new class inside the lib/ folder. I've constructed this class in a manner that any activity module should be able to use it to create individual student/cm extensions or 'customizations' to any of the db fields that activity normally supports.
- I've added one table to the DB structure
- I've updated the install.xml and the upgrade.php files to handle that.
- I've modified the Quiz module to demonstrate how integration could take place.
- I have developed this for Moodle 1.9.11 as that is what version I needed it for
- I've written this with hopes of it being brushed up by the community and included in core so its not written as a module.
- I've only prototyped - though extensively - so there are no translation strings available yet and i imagine custom capabilities might be suggested.
- Because I created it for core and not for a module, you will need to bump your main Moodle version # to get the tables installed.
- Create a quiz w/o starttime, endtime, or timelimit
- Attempt the quiz with multiple students (or multiple times with one student)
- Go back to the Edit Quiz screen
- Navigate to the bottom and assign an extension to a student for the quiz. (extend the timeclose for them or something)
- Log back in as a student and see that quiz has been updated.
- Regrade compensates for changed values
- The class I added to the /lib folder has PHPDoc so use that if you need to.
- I'm probably forgetting to mention something else.
Warning DO NOT INSTALL THIS ON PRODUCTION. THIS IS NOT SAFE FOR PRODUCTION.

I look forward to your feedback.
I assume you spotted that this has already been implemented in the quiz module in Moodle 2.0. (Of course, it would be better to implement this in a way that works in all modules eventually.)
I honestly didn't look at 2.0 because that's probably a year out at this point for us. I will now though. I'd be interested to see how you do your interface and probably mimic that.
Can this please have the 'partner' tag added? It is one on my hit list for clients - even if its not as pressing as rubric grading forms
Mark - Since this is working for the quiz activity module, I would think that a similar strategy could be applied to all modules as Tim mentions. Seems like a reasonable request as I like to see that type of consistency with activity modules. Peace - Anthony
I'm bumping the priority of this to major and set the fix version to dev backlog. I'll let one of the Michael's do the tagging of the issue. Peace - Anthony
Sounds like a plan Anthony - love the way it works in quizzes, having this extended to other activities.
Did you read the comments above before adding component quiz? Seemingly not. This was implemented in the quiz for Moodle 2.1 - so no more work needed there.
I've posted a proposed way of handling this that'd work for all activities on the forums.
Very much RFC. Let me know if I'm on the right track or completely mad.
Anyone got any comments on Adam's suggested implementation? Like many, I would love to see Tim's quiz solution implemented in at the very least the Assignment module, which is where I get the majority of queries around how to make extensions for individuals and groups.
Keep voting, keep talking.
Adam's suggested implementation is too simplistic. There is no way that this can be done completely generically, because different activities have different DB columns that need to be overridden.
Compare this with Moodle works for editing the basic activity settings. The mod has to create all the DB columns itself; it has be define the editing form; it has to provide specific add/update_instance functions.
To implement overrides 'generally' you would require at least that much specific support from each module. Not impossible, but a substantial task.
My suggestion would be that whoever wants to implement this should first implement it in a single module (e.g. assignment) while looking at the quiz code and basically copying it. Only then, once there are two different working implementations, so you try to refactor this into a generic system with callbacks in the modules.
All the main interface would require is to know which user you want to apply an override for, and the new override time(s)/setting(s). The modules can decide themselves what they apply those to, if at all.
It seems far less work would be involved in having modules define a FEATURE_OVERRIDE in their supports method and to then provide a function or two to supply stuff like a list of possible fields to be overriden and their type.
Naturally any module that will support this will need to alter its checks on any override-able fields to make sure they haven't been overridden.
Merely copying how its done in quiz for another mod, say assignment (where this is most requested), would pretty much be a carbon copy and bring us no closer to a generic solution.
What may be a good idea is rather than one big table for overrides site-wide, you instead have a table per supported module (much like we have quiz_overrides). This would give each module more control over its override data (and would be beneficial for lookups and other stuff like backup/restore).
We would like to issue "permits" (for lack of a better term) for late submission (this is typically specifically around assignment submissions). These would 'administratively' grant a student the ability to submit a piece of work late and take some sort of sanction (or none) that would be applied against the grade they get for the activity.
In my head it makes sense for this to be applied at the Gradebook level as the sanction is modifier of the result of their performance rather than a modifier before the performance result is reported (if that makes sense).
It would seem to me that a separate "Extensions Manager" module could implement the necessary database tables to record the issue(and revocation) of permits and then a gradebook report could display the information. I'm not sure how this could be implemented with the current gradebook API for updating grade items (so that a permit's sanction is applied to raw grade as it is being reported to the gradebook) without core changes...
It also potentially raises the prospect that you could have "stacking" permits (e.g. 1st extension applies a 10%, 2nd one applies an additional 10% etc).
The only permit I can think of at the moment is "extend submission deadline".
hello all,
I have almost finished the coding part of giving time/date extensions to individual students for assignment module.
I am going to send a patch in upcoming 2-3 days, before that I have some doubts.
1)Display strings (lang) must be added into the lang pack.I am thinking to create the local lang for this, am i right, if not, Tell me what to do? and how to do?
2)There should be button to open the main window of extensions. considering the capabilities are given to teacher , editing teacher, manager. Where do I add this button/link so that user with specified capability can see the button/link? and how to add this?
3) I have added a new table (assignment_extensions) in to database manually. how to add this new table into database, so others can upgrade there database to use this functionality.
please give me some suggestion to do this, that will finalize my work and i can switch to new task.
see screenshots attached above how this feature look likes.
see the attachment above, How does it look like.
1)main extension window. -> displays the all all users the the course and extension table, different filters are also provided like 1) show all, extended, requireextension etc. Also provides a way to give one or more student extension by selecting "QUICKEXTEND".
2)single user extension window -> display the all info about the single user, his extension field, and lots more.
please help me to do task maintained in above post.
For the main extensions window, I need to type url every time.
localhost/moodle/mod/assignment/extensions.php?id=2 or
Here value of "id" is course module id and "a" is assignment id. you can see attachment url also.
After loading the main window, buttons are provided for displaying single user extension in the main window.
so, where do I link the main window? considering the capabilities are given to teacher, editing teacher, manager .
Hello all,
I have solved the problem (how to add a new table in database) as stated in earlier post.I fixed it using XMLDB and changing install.xml version.php upgrade.php.
Until now I could't fix..
1) how to add lang (display string ) in newly created feature(patch).
2) Button that will display main extensions window for selected assignment, which has input course_module id or assignment id, Considering capabilities are given to teacher, editing teacher and manager.
hello yogeshrl '
is this only for moodle 2?
is it also to moodle 1.9.x?
I am writing it in moodle 2.2+ code, so it will be functional in moodle 2.2+ and further versions.
For making it functional in lower versions, I need to change some some part of code ( functions that are part of moodle 2.2+ versions and not of moodle 1.9+, which I am using in extensions code), not more than 10 line of code.
I am sending patch in few hours here. please check it and give me feedback.
I am sending patch here, I think, I don't have permissions to add label, so i am sending patch.txt file through attachment. Please promote this patch. If possible I will be giving github pull url.
0) your moodle version must be moodle2.2+
1) merge this patch in your moodle
2) upgrade your moodle
3) create a course and provide a assignment(any type) by setting up timedue and preventlate.
4) login as teacher or admin.
5) click on assignment to view it, that will display assignment. If you are logged in as teacher, then will get a link below and right of assignment dates. click on that, main extensions window will be displayed, containing all student in the course who are have permission to submit assignment.
5) give extension to the student, on using various options like "Quickextend" or "extend". You can give multiple extension at a time by selecting "Quickextend" option. Also provided comment text box helps to give feedback to the student who has given extension, when they view assignment.
6) Option like final are really helpful for not to give extension to student many times.
7) After providing extension, login as a student, view the assignment, you will get all extension details like how much extension given and time due of assignment including extension. The upload link will be available until the extension date of that student.
8) login as another student who haven't given extension, view assignment, will display original assignment dates and link will be available as per timedue of assignment.
Other features....
1) When teacher opens the grading window, the student who had given extension will be displayed in faint red color along with the extension time and submission time. This will be helpful for teacher while grading student.
2) Another hack is that when teacher is in single user grading window, there also he/she can view extension time, and submission time.
Different options...
1) filters are provided like extended, require extension, per page extensions to show etc.
2) save, saveandnext, next, cancel buttons are provided.
3) for open assignment means not set preventlate and time, no require extension facility is provided.
Future work....
1) handling groups in the course.
2) giving extension to the group.
patch.txt for giving time/date extension to individual students to assignment module.
We have been working on a module for extensions in 2.4, which implements some advanced functionality. We are aiming this at being usable for all activities in Moodle, rather than just Assign.
For a full rundown of what our module supports and the progress on porting to 2.4 from 1.9, have a read of: https://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=216784
In line with Tim's comments above, we're willing to do the work to implement this properly so that any module can be modified to use it, as we will be doing it anyway one way or another.
I will contact Tim to discuss.
Beautiful work! with the Global Time Extension plugin you are developing.
I am Looking forward to see it in action, when it is ready for testing.
Following the guidelines at: http://docs.moodle.org/dev/Process#New_feature_development I have begun work on a specification to outline implementing this in the Core; initially I have focused mainly on the actual core changes required, however I have touched on exactly what functionality our code will bring, and suggested a couple of ways it could be implemented.
The specification is located here: http://docs.moodle.org/dev/Moodle_Activity_Extensions_Spec but should be considered a draft for the moment. I have created a tracker issue https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-37505 to track suggestions to the specification so this can be implemented, so any suggestions should be made on that tracker item please.
I am aware that the new item I have created is essentially a duplicate of this issue, however I felt the spec and it's discussion should be separated from this tracker item.
One normally discusses specs in a forum, not a tracker issue. Your spec does not discuss performance implications. I think that what you are proposing is insufficient to handle batch operations. It will be a classic performance failure (DB query in a loop). It would also be better if you removed my name from that spec.
... but aside from all that, thanks for investing the time and effort to get a spec going for this development.
One comment after a brief flick (leaving the serious work for Tim to pass judgement on of course) is that this will have an impact on the existing assignment module which already has some of this functionality built in to core, even if not using Tim's code for quiz extensions. Also, looking at the broadness in the scope of the changes, and having been through the Assignment upgrade project, I'd suggest that this will take a much more comprehensive spec, and a whole lot more discussion with HQ, before it would have any chance of being done - and even then it would probably need to be targeted for 2.6 - at best. Not meaning to sound pessimistic, just sharing previous experiences as an 'outsider' working to get changes made to core code.
Would it not then be feasible to have this as an interface that modules would be able to opt into over the next few version (*_supports('deadline') springs to mind)? instead of a big "bang lets upgrade every module"?
If you strip it back surely the biggest core changes are (I'm glossing over lots of implementation details yes):
- every (instance of a) mod may observe a core deadline
- and every mod that supports (1) should be calling a function that might change the deadline reported by core.
We have a "deadlines" block that amalgamates the deadlines from the quiz and assignment modules into a single chronological list for an individual user and just these 2 modules use different field names to store the "deadline" (timeclose and timedue). We'd like to extend this plugin to for other modules but we have to look at how each one stores its (student) deadline, so just ironing out this inconsistency would be nice.
Thanks for the comments; the spec is definitely still in Draft and shouldn't be considered final. I'm a developer not a BA, so the time I can spend writing specs is limited but I will see what I can do. I am most interested in the best way to integrate it into Core at this point, from our perspective the extensions management is well defined (for our needs specifically, admittedly). I may be able to provide our internal spec, however I cannot do that without permission from superiors.
@Tim: I'll remove your name. I created a thread in the forum last night as suggested in the wiki: https://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=219620. Apologies for implying discussion should take place in the tracker.
@Mark: Yes that's an unfortunate side affect. Though if this does go ahead the advanced extensions management this new code will provide would probably be welcomed in a lot of situations. I realise this will take time to be implemented, 2.6 was my initial thought, but that doesn't stop us integrating locally and testing in our own environments - in fact its probably a good idea.
@Michael: Thanks for your thoughts, that does sound like a good way to go. I'll investigate further.
Just reading about Assignment Re-submission (https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-36804) development work and thought it should be raised in relation to any ideas about extension management (both on that issue and this one), since I think that they are related to each other!
Just a quick heads up; My priorities were temporarily shifted the last two weeks onto another urgent task, but I'll be working on this again this week.
I have been developing on this further locally against 2.5dev.
Michael's suggestions seemed to be a good way to implement this, so I have started working on a deadline plugin architecture which borrows heavily from the way the Plagiarism plugin system is implemented. In conjunction with this I have been modifying the mod_assign module to use the deadlines plugin for storing it's opening/deadline/cutoff dates.
So far I have a deadlines plugin which is a basic plugin that does the translation between the activity and the open/deadline dates it expects and the column names used in the deadlines table. Deadline loads the plugins it knows about (deadlines and extensions currently) each which will return a date, specifically in the case of the Extensions plugin it will check the relevant details of the activity and the user and return the extension date.
I expect that at a point in the future the open/close/deadline column names in the relevant modules could be standardised, simplifying the deadlines code a little.
There is a lot to be implemented yet, but what's here so far is a reasonable starting point which is very flexible and provides some excellent scope for future plugins.
No public GIT code yet, due to my local network denying upload access (temporary, help desk issue lodged to have this allowed).
The code for deadline/deadlines/extensions is getting to the point where it will shortly be ready for others to look at, I'm still waiting for my local network issue to be resolved (but there has been progress on that front) so I'm hoping by mid next week, I will have pushed to my GIT repo for others to have a look at it.
The code has been written with production in mind, and as few changes to core and modules as possible.
It is of course still under development, so of course is not 100% functional, but enough has been done that others should be able to say if we're on the right track or not, and offer suggestions for improvements.
I've made further progress on this, and updated my forum thread: https://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=216784#p970601
Could I please ask that people have a look, and if you have any suggestions please make those in the thread?
Our deadlines/extensions code is nearly ready for our internal UAT and should go for that this week. I'm certain they'll find some issues, which I'll then need to resolve.
The plan is that once it's passed our internal UAT i'll make the code public.
In the meantime I am happy to provide a github link privately with the understanding it's probably broken; but i'm most interested in hearing feedback on the architecture and implementation.
Hi James
We are interested in having a look at your deadline/extenstion code, please can you email me the github link.
jacksond at epic dot co dot uk
Hi Jackson,
Certainly. The github branch hasn't been maintained for a little while so lags behind updates that were required for 2.6. There has also been a lot of bugs we have resolved that are not on Github. I'll push my changes up shortly and let you know the details.
I have started my work to add user/group overrides to the lesson module. It is not yet finished but the IU is done and all the overrides management too.
Most of this code is based on Tim Hunt's code for overrides in the quiz module, adapted to lesson specificities. So Moodle users familiar with quiz overrides should have no problem to use lesson overrides.
What is missing is:
- update group overrides when a group is deleted/updated or some members added/suppressed (it's not really clear in my mind yet )
- write the actual code that merge lesson settings with the relevant overrides (I need to think more to the most effective way to do that)
But as I want to post in the lesson forum about this to gather comments from the community, I will edit this issue to point to my repository branch.
I will also attach a screenshot of the IU so that you get a grasp on what you can override on the lesson settings (I hope it will suit everyone needs )
Despite this is not finished I have asked CiBot to point all the (numerous) problems and coding style mistakes so that I can improve code quality at the same time I finish this patch.

This should now be basically working but:
- I need to check that the function that merge default lesson settings with overrides is working in all cases
- maybe there are place in the lesson code where overrides are not properly applied. To correct this I just need to call $lesson->update_effective_access($USER->id); but it is hard to sport all the places where this need to be done.
I made a big mistake in saying that the code for quiz overrides was from Tim Hunt, of course Tim participates a lot, giving advices and helping to improve the code, but most of this code is from Matt Petro of the University of Wisconsin - Madison Engineering School and Math Department. I should give him proper credit in the commit comment.
Just to make sure it doesn't get forgotten, the overrides should be cleared using the course reset functionality. This means that the functions:
- lesson_reset_course_form_definition
- lesson_reset_course_form_defaults
- lesson_reset_userdata
need to be updated to perform this task. (See
MDL-35280 for the implementation for mod_quiz)
Just a short note that I have updated this patch
- to rebase with latest weekly
- to rework the lesson time limit override now that
MDL-48962is closed and that lesson->timelimit use seconds as unit (in fact as expected this has simplified the code of overrides )
- to copy Stephen Bourget's code for
MDL-35280so that overrides can be deleted in course reset
So this patch is still current with master branch
It's a pity nobody seems really interested in that change. The only comments I got to my forum post are
- Time Hunt who likes it
- Itamar Tzadok who doesn't like it

Hi Jean-Michel, thanks for the patch. You have not sent it up for peer review yet so nobody actually looked at it.
Also I'm afraid the most of people who voted/watching this issue are interested in Assignment and/or the universal framework to work across modules.
As far as I can see your implementation is specific to lesson only. I would recommend to move your solution into separate issue and link to this one.
For example, this functionality was already implemented for quizzes in
Hello Marina,
Thanks for the comments,
Yes you are right. I created
MDL-49642. I will move git branch and testing instructions to the new issue
Removing the lesson component as this is now implemented in Moodle 2.9. See
Hi all,
Our institution is looking to developing a date override feature that is specific to the assignment module to allow overrides (start, due and cut-off dates) to be applied on an individual user or group basis. I've posted a specification of this work on the Moodle forum (https://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=333400) or a direct link to the Google Docs. We've found that the option of granting students an extension is no longer a feasible workaround for differentiating due dates and the process of providing an extension to alter an assignment due date for individuals / groups is causing significant student confusion. It would be good to hear your feedback on this specification.
Apologies if you've received this message twice - this feature request seems to be similar to MDL-16808, MDL-25918 and
Just an FYI that we are now working with Greg / Flinders on
MDL-29795, but note that depending on your definition this tracker will not be covered as it is referring to a generic 'extensions' framework for any module rather than a generic 'overrides' framework which is what we are tackling. For some people these may be considered equivalent. Overrides are typically set before hand, an extension is granted during or after a module is due.

Omark Opus
December 11 2010 05:56AM
Jordan Eberle scored a sick shootout goal, just wicked. And you know what? Few will remember it. Why? Linus Omark brought out his Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat and the crowd went wild.
It's making headlines in Finland and it is the talk of the town here. Not just the shootout beauty, but the entire team. Lordy the Edmonton Oilers have some bullets, and this just a few short months after the entire organization seemed to be hanging by a thread.
Stink for a few years, draft well and then hang on for the ride. If I didn't hate the Flames so much, I'd suggest it to their general manager Crazy McNutty.
The best part of the evening may have been the reaction to the shootout goal by the Lightning team.
Village elder Steven Stamkos painted a grim picture for the future of our game when he spoke of the Omark tally. "I didn't think it showed a lot of respect in this game.I mean, you don't see Crosby or Ovechkin doing that and they're the two best players in the game.(Omark's) a creative player, he's got good skill. I'm not taking that away from him, but it didn't really have any implication on his moves, so I don't know why he did that." The entire article is here.
I'll have a lash as to why he did that: it entertained the crowd and he scored a goal doing it!!! My word, the NHL needs about 30 of these guys to beat some of the stuffing out of a league that can turn a kid like Stamkos into Mr. Furry Brow overnight.
The fellow trying to choke poor Gerry Ehman of the Oakland Seals is none other than Eddie Shack. Back in the olden days, Shack would do damn near anything to entertain a crowd and he became known as a true character.
Make no mistake, Shack could play the game (he won wherever he went, strange coincidence I'm sure) and brought a physical element that bordered on crazy. Anyway, before we tell Mr. Omark to stop scoring goals that delight the crowd because we're fretting over the game's rich history, let's remember that this is hockey and we could use a little more character and a lot less structure in today's game.
What we have in Omark is a very important character in the story that is the new Oilers. He can play the Jerry Lewis part (to Pääjärvi's smooth Dean Martin) and when they make the Rat Pack films he can be the one who draws all the attention away from the robbery. Omark is a fully formed player and character: just add linemates and get rid of the extras, and we're on our way.
Question: after last night, how do you send Omark down when Hemsky is healthy? Riddle me that one, Batman. Linus rhymes with minus now, but this guy is the cock of the walk.
His fist shoot out goal !!!
December 11 2010, 06:27AM
That Eberle goal was just sick. And then Omark showed up and brought the Youtube moves. The Oilers are going to get a favorable schedule next year to comply with the CBC's need to have Toronto first, followed by the next most entertaining team in the double header.
Sounds to me like sour grapes from the Lightning. Doesn't St. Louis do his "spin-a-rama" occasionally on shootouts too?
December 11 2010, 06:45AM
Great read Lowtide. Totally agree. The NHL needs this excitement. Traps, board work (cycle) & 100 ft tip ins then chase, do not do it for me.
As for Stamkos & St.Louis, is respect hitting a player from behind as Pavel Kubina did to Omark? How about sending out scoring machine MA Pouliot out for the shootout? (may fall into dumb instead of respect) How about scoring a goal in the third period & reacting like it was a playoff winner? How about whining in the media about how you were robbed not to get two points? (Isn't that disrespecting your opponent?) Interesting how people like Stamkos & St.Louis, who has been known to disrespect the game by diving a time or twelve, can talk about respect, but don't need to show it themselves.
Regardless of the smoke screen tossed out by Tampa, the game was entertaining. Oil may not play 60 minutes, but at times can dazzle & that covers the price of admission.
PS. Hated Toronto, but always loved Shack.
December 11 2010, 06:48AM
I don't know if the Lightning will ever fully recover from what Omark did to them. It's been a long time since another team has reacted to anything the Oilers have initiated.
Houston....we have made some progress here.
December 11 2010, 06:59AM
God, the butthurt coming from the Tampa players is pure comedy gold.
I tell you this - I went to bed last night half way through the 3rd period (I live in NB - so +3 hours) as the Oilers were getting out played badly by TBL. What a wonderful surprise to get up in the morning, and be able to watch what Twitter was buzzing about!
Linus - you talk the talk, but you can back it up. Carry on!
December 11 2010, 07:08AM
Wow, that was fun to watch. Good to see Pens get involved in the game. loved to see him stand up for Omark. The A looks good on him.
I would love to see the a camera on Oilers bench from Omarks pump fake to the celebration afterwards. Perhaps ELPH is dead... need to stop getting so badly out shot.
December 11 2010, 07:14AM
What a bunch of whiners! Heaven forbid there be some entertainment value in the game. Maybe if Stamkos paid a little more time watching Omark and less time stealing Kurtis Foster's shootout "move" we would all be better off. Don't get me started on Ovechkin. During that stupid "creative" shootout exhibition that was staged at the All star game a year or two ago, Ovechkin's contribution was to do some lame move while wearing sunglasses and a backwards hat. Thanks, but I will PVR (is that what you kids call it?) Omark next time he is mano v mano on some goalie instead of watching Ovie's "Jeff Spicoli on ice" act. Look, I am old school as it gets. (I was alive when the Eddie Shack picture above was taken). And while I am not yet sold on Linus as a long term NHL contributor or know if he will be the best teammate in the world, I must say he is more fun than a porn star at a frat party. Cocky, undoubtedly (Linus, not the porn star) - but about 28 plus years ago they were saying the same thing about a bunch of kids in Blue and Orange singing on a bench during playoffs. And that turned out all right. Look, I am not saying this is the second coming of Gretzky / Messier / Kurri, but what we have NOT seen for going on 20 years from this organization is swagger - and frankly I missed it. Finally, I am looking forward to the great day when all the "Fist" lemmings follow each other into the Sea of the Irrelevant.
December 11 2010, 07:21AM
What Dennis said. Every time Penner was on the ice he made things happen. And the emotion! Who knew?
I loved the false start with the linesman standing over the puck...and the Kevin Quinn repeat wind-up because the soundbite is what gets played on the late news and it had to sound fresh. But was the Omark SO goal really what he planned? Geez it looked like it went off the heel of his stick. Not complaining, just wondering how anyone else saw it.
Mr. Brule might be nervous about sending out any dry cleaning, once Hemsky looks healthy.
The overtime and shootout was very exciting and the young kids are great. Habby was sensational too and Penner had a great game. Too bad Tampa was so sour on Omark's SO goal. It was entertaining and the fans loved it so we got a win and that's what counts. Get use to it NHL as the more creative we can be it id good for the league so sour poose's get with the times.
December 11 2010, 07:43AM
The Omark goal wasn't just showboating. The shootout is all about distraction and misdirection and the spin-o-rama at the blueline after that wind up was distracting. Followed by the full speed fake and Ellis was a statue.
Kubina should be suspended. If that wasn't a blindside hit then there is no such thing.
I thought the spin came a little early in his rush but when I watched it again it basically served the purpose of screwing with Ellis' head, followed by a fake slap shot the goalie had no chance on the play. If Omark doesn't do the spin Ellis settles down and has a way better chance of stopping that shot.
Good on him for trying it as I think everone will agree that for the most part players in the shootouts aren't willing to take some risks now and then like Omark and even Eberle.

He had a pretty decent game before the shootout, too.
Keep it up Linus!
December 11 2010, 08:01AM
the media attention this received was beyond ridiculous. 100% agree with the article. im sure Donald will have something to say about it tonight and id guess it will be positive.

The hit looked clean to me... shoulder to shoulder. Just looked bad because he had his head down and was outweighed by 80 LBS. Penner threw him around like a rag doll. Made him play better from there on. More evidence that Renney's got the room doing well.
December 11 2010, 08:08AM
The shootout is a gimmick and so is Linus Omark.
For his next act he should moonwalk on ice, flip the puck over his head, catch it on his stick, and whip it in glove side.
Phil Bourque thinks Omark has large grapes.
I'd like to see the Omarkian spin-o-rama during the game with Scott Stevens patrolling the point.
If his move goes against "the code" than so does taking a slap shot 15feet from a goalie in the shootout.
December 11 2010, 08:16AM
That Omark move was rediculious!! You want to get more people watching hockey....enough said.
Disrespecting the game, no chance. If Stamkos and St.Louis thought they could score with a move like that they'd do it in a heart beat.
The NHL brings in the shoot out to entertain. That was ENTERTAINMENT! Omark has a huge set to try that move, but good on him for doing it.
Aside from that Eberle's shootout attempt was rediculious! Penner was engaged and doing damage. I hate the guy at times, just like everyone else, but I want so badly for him to show emotion like he did last night! I jumped up and was cheering in my living room when he defended Omark!
Hall was excellent and dominated the Overtime. The future is going to be insane. These guys are going to be so much fun to watch in a year or two!
It feels good to be an Oilers fan!!
December 11 2010, 08:16AM
I haven't heard anyone in the media mention the distraction angle. I think it was pretty clear from the way he reacted the fake shot Ellis was pretty discombobulated, or maybe just terrible. I tried to tell the Lightning to trade for Tim Thomas in the off season, but they wouldn't listen.
December 11 2010, 08:21AM
How boring was that shootout vs. Anaheim. 10 rounds of 'please make it stop'.
How can anyone be upset about that? I hope St. Louis had a cry to get it out of him.
Penner has definitely revealed a level of passion the last two games that boarders on awesome.
Eberle's move was the sort of thing Gagner built his early SO career reputation on.
Stamkos needs to shut it. I don't think Omark's move hurts the reputation of the game nearly as much as idiot refs calling phantom penalties or ignoring pick plays.
PS: I used google and translated the Finnish article to English. Some words didn't translate but here's their description of the Omark SO Goal: "Match of discussion rose to stunning shootout decided the struggle Edmontonon Swedish newcomer Linus Omark. NHL debut occurred in 23-year-old striker took a terrific pace, turned the puck as soon as napattuaan a full circle around, did hämäyslaukauksen and finally put the game means Lightning guard Dan Ellis in between your legs."
Love it. Of course, one of my sports mottos is "if it works, it's good."
I love how the Lightning thought it had no impact on the play. Well, in that case they should be pretty ticked off at Ellis for getting beat five-hole on a fanned, fake slap shot. That should be easy to stop, right?
The Lightning, in this case, come across as sore losers. Plain and simple.
If the NHL was going to look at anything, I'd like 'em to barr the slapshot from inside the hashmarks on the shootout. Wanna get into a goalies head? Have Foster cruise in and rip one high as the first shooter. I bet the next two go in.
Those comments from Stamkos coming after he waltz's in & lets go a slapshot from the hashmarks....
22 Goals scored this year by Stamkos & that's the best move he has, come on. I was at the game & as soon as Omark skated out to take the shot, everyone in the building stood up & cheered. I can't say I have ever seen that in Edmonton, or maybe even in one of the 29 other cities in the whole league.
December 11 2010, 08:44AM
I was at the game. One thing that hasn't been mentioned is the crowds reaction prior to Omark shooting. When they saw him get the nod as the third shooter, everyone got out of their seats and started cheering. People were expecting something special from him. Add having the game result on the line and it was a lot of pressure to live up to. Omark really had no option other than to do something ridiculous and he delivered. The teams reaction to him scoring tells you how they felt about the goal. They mobbed him. I like cockiness, especially when you can back it up. You can sit through a lot of bad hockey, and we had our share last night, when you know something special can happen anytime. Hall had 3 odd man breaks on the shift he scored. Paajarvi played possessed all night. Eberle had a great shootout goal, Penner stood up for a teammate and Cogliano looked like Horcoff reincarnated on the penalty kill in overtime. It wasn't great hockey, but what a great game.
December 11 2010, 08:59AM
When I saw Omark skate onto the ice before he took his shot in the shootout, I was thinking one of two things is gonna happen..he's gonna try something crazy and make a complete fool of himself..or...he's gonna try something crazy and......
December 11 2010, 09:17AM
Hey, wasn't Dan Ellis the guy who complained how hard it was being a millionaire? If so, well, then made for an interesting juxtaposition last night: a cocky rookie who realizes he's in the entertainment business, scoring on a dude who apparently can't cope with its plentiful spoils (which, in large part, are provided by those they're entertaining).
Also - Stamkos can go jump in a lake. That "unnecessary" spinorama and slap on the ice probably had Ellis wondering what the heck he was dealing with - a brilliant bit of subterfuge and considerably more creative and daring than lumbering over the blueline, closing your eyes and letting loose with a slapshot between the hashmarks. Sit on it, Stamkos.
Things we deserve after these years of mediocrity:
Hope. A passionate team. Young horses who live to run. ENTERTAINMENT.
Last night SOMETHING HAPPENED. I almost don't care who or what it was. SOMETHING HAPPENED. The league is talking about us.
Thank you for these happy nuggets of entertaining play, Oilers. We all deserve it.
December 11 2010, 09:26AM
The crazy thing is that Omark's thrilling goal means a lot of important stuff will be forgotten. Penner's aggression has been mentioned here by a few (Dennis, Halfwise among the comments above) and the Eberle goal we've discussed.
But how about MPS? Man that guy is getting better with every game.
I wish they were playing again tonight. Can't wait for each game. It's been years. 2006.
Even the first 3/4 of 06 was tough with the 3 headed goalie monster!
And yes, MPS was really good last night and the Penner rant at the end of the game was the best thing we've seen from him as a leader
But although it might seem repetitive, Hall is a BEAST! Especially in clutch situations! Like OT last night was just mind boggling that he can do this ALREADY! Every game, he's our best player

I couldn't agree more. The days between games leave me in withdrawal these days! It has been precisely 5 seasons since I've felt like that. So many interesting players to watch, even if the team is still having some growing pains.
December 11 2010, 09:46AM
When is the last time that Oilers fans looked forward to the next game? What a change in attitude. THe band waon is going to need a an upgrade pretty soon. The team has got confidence and has rid itself of some of its bad habits that were killing them earlier in the season. Where do we go from here? Do we wnnt a .500 or better hockey team? Do we want to make the playoffs? If Omark continues with putting up points where the hell will this team be then? The options would be frakin mindboggling. I am looking forward to Don Cherry's take on Omark's goal. He is going to be burst when he wakes up this morning and checks out the highlights and sees the sick goal that Eberle and Omark scored. Does anybody actually watch hockey in TBay? Or cares?
December 11 2010, 09:56AM
I was at the second coming of Jesus last night, and I have a few observations to share.
1. Omark took 1 NHL game to become a better Oiler than Rob Schremp.
2. Dustin Penner had a another solid game last night. He started slow and emotionless though. On the first shift he was forechecking and the d-man was coming around the net and Penner had no choice but to hit him. Instead, he spun away from the check. That was a frustrating play to watch as he could have got the crowd into it by ending the d-man's game. The fight was good and did show some passion; however, slamming your stick on the crossbar after the game is over doesn't show me that he's playing with emotion. A certain first overall pick did that awhile back and was benched.
3. Badly outplayed? Ya we were. The good part was, that we kept Tampa on the perimeter for most of those 40 shots.
4. The reason we were outplayed seemed to be a combo of two things. Fist, the forwards taking off to the other blueline immediately after our D got the puck, thus giving them no targets to pass to. Second, the D could've stretched the pass to the other blueline with a wide open forward there several times, but were hanging onto the puck far too long.
5. I was also at the Ducks game on Tuesday, and those were two of the most entertaining regular season games I've been to, ever.
I lived Omark's spinerama move especially after the Ref tried to embarrass at his first attempt.
Having said that, I think I was more impressed with how, during the game, he cut to the net where there was a lot of traffic and defenders and he got one extra move in and got a decent shot off that rebounded straight over to Gibby for the backhander.
The guy could have shied around the outside perimeter but he took it hard to the net. I loved that.
The shooter finisher was the icing on the cake. This kid has ice going through his veins!
The interview with Maggie and him at the end was classic as well as you can see a real synergy and friendship between those two guys and that bodes well for them have an inner competition and trying that extra bit hard to make each other successful.
Man talk about upward pointing arrows! Sha-winnnng!
December 11 2010, 10:17AM
Good one-"fist lemmings into the sea of the irrelevant". 2010-11 Oilers = speed, pride, passion, and entertainment (at least some of the time). Who knew? The downside is perhaps no lottery pick. Will Stu M still be able to pull out an elite center and a tower of power d-man?

so many people falling all over themselves about this circus act that at one time said "no comment" when asked if the Oiler organization was where he thought he should be...stauffer told him yesterday he had "mythic proportions" or some such gob...we treat this new smerf like beachfront property... i'm just waiting for him to start talking about himself in the third person...when he decides to leave when his contract is up he'll go all LeBron on us and say he's "taking his talents" elsewhere...Linus the Penis may someday be Linus tacked to the pine-us [what is up with this back and forth pronunciation business anyway...make up our minds for us please]...so much frothing and fawning...what is the big deal here, he's talented yes but he's not the second coming of you-know-who!
my jury is still out
We're in a pretty good spot right now. Not only because the bets we placed on our kids are paying, but because we've run the gamut already on highs and lows, and we still show a lot of promise.
When we eventually hit some more rough patches, we now know that success is just as easy to come by.
December 11 2010, 10:32AM
It is unbelievable the sense of entitlement that seems to exist in the Lightning room.
You either score more than the other team or you don't. Unless you had fair goals called back, you can't say that you didn't deserve to lose. It's all well and good to throw everything you've got at a team for one period, when you're behind, but how about accepting some responsibility for ending up in that position in the first place.
I understand that was a frustrating game for TB to lose, but from where I'm sitting, our team of rookies, YouTube sensations and cast-offs could teach Stamkos and company a thing or two about what it means to be a professional.
Part of the entertaining business is giving people what they want, and exceeding their expectations whenever you can. As was mentioned above, everyone wanted and expected what Omark delivered. I, for one, applaud him for rising to the occasion.
December 11 2010, 10:34AM
I can see why Stamkos might have thought what Omark did was a little dis respectful but to hear Martin St.Louis after the game bitch about it was a little offensive I thought. This coming from a guy who likes to skate in back wards most of the time on his shoot out attemps with his ass sticking out towards the goalie who also likes to throw in the snow job(spraying the goalie with snow) or spin o rama himself. Typical french hockey player to bitch about something. I don't get why Omark shouldn't be able to throw in his spin o rama at the start of the shoot out and yet St. Louis is allowed to do his at the end. f*#k, he sounded like a girl when he complained about it too, what a tool!
Should be interesting to hear what Grapes thought about Omark tonight on HNIC. I can see MacT giving it a thumbs down on TSN. But I can't wait for all the reaction over the next few televises.
And go GSP go. Knock that ass clown Koschek OUT!!! Spin O Rama drop kick to the head. Boo yah Omark stylze!!!
December 11 2010, 10:41AM
The Oilers are 7-2-2 in the last 11. And 15 points in the last 10 games. Not sure which one is more impressive but man is it fun.
Is there no etiquette or political correctness in these brash and bold new entertainers like OMARK ? Cherry will probabln blast him as well , and who is Cherry to blast anyone to begin with ? I suppose league will fine him or suspend him for 20 games for conduct unbecoming to the other automatons that don't think creativity is anything more than intimidation and rubbing it in ?
Cudos for the kid for sprucing up the game and the shootout ! Maybe more will try the same now . Trust another Swede Cherry will probably say - just like Forsberg had done years earlier as i recall . Loved it and hope to see more creativity tried around the league . I wonder if Subban has any moves to go with his mouth on a shootout ?
The league more characters for it's entertainment package - nice to see some !!

"Omark was then asked if he felt that he was given a fair opportunity. "I don't want to discuss that, but I want to play a lot, so that's all I can say," he said.
Dave Mitchell of CTV followed up by tossing Omark a grenade, asking him if the Oilers are the best organization for him at this point in his career. To that, Omark offered: "No comment." Matheson followed up by offering Omark didn't sound like he agreed with the decision to send him to Oklahoma City."
It sounds more like he didn't feel like he was given a fair shot. Nothing about wanting to be here.
The only thing wrong about the SO goals is that it was not against Calgary...........

Pre-game had an interview clip with Hrudey who related a story about Al Arbour. In this story no less a coach than Al Arbour called hockey players "entertainers" on par with Broadway actors.
So St. Lois and Shamkos can shut it, Al Arbour said it's ok to be entertaining.

Residential Life
Complete a Housing Application
(You must login to myCMU to access the application.)
Parents: It is very important that it is the student who completes this application and questionnaire!
As a residential university, the residence life program at Central Methodist University is vital to student life on campus. The residence halls are safe, comfortable, living environments that cultivate social interaction and personal growth.
Living on Campus
Each of the five campus residence halls offers a unique living environment.
Each Hall is staffed with a Residence Hall Director (RHD) and a team of upper-class student Resident Assistants (RAs) to ensure that the residence halls provide a safe and comfortable living environment.
All students receiving institutional financial aid are required to live on campus unless, before the first day of classes, they are: married, the custodial parent of a minor child living with them, over 21 years of age, in their fifth year of college, or, living with a parent in the parent's primary residence within 35 miles of Fayette.
What to know what the phone number in your room will be? Check out the Residence Hall Directory.
Your Roommate
We want you and your roommate to adjust quickly to your new home, therefore we ask that you consider your answers carefully when completing your housing application. You also may request a specific person as long as you both agree to this option.
Communicating with your future roommate via email before you arrive at CMU is a good way to connect before you move into your new room. It will also give you a chance to plan your room and to decide who is to bring what item. Most roommates easily learn to live together and become very good friends who decide to room together every year.
The Office of Student Development will mail room assignments to CMU students between May and August. The assignment letter will include the name and contact information of your roommate as well as your residence hall and room number. You will also receive check-in directions and other important housing information.

Maggie Wood, Keeper of Social History,
Warwickshire Museum Service
The Sheldon Tapestry Map of Warwickshire was woven in the 1590s, and was one of a set of four tapestry maps made to hang in Ralph Sheldon's house in south Warwickshire.
It's a rare and wonderful pictorial representation of Elizabethan Warwickshire – a bird's eye view of Shakespeare's landscape.
Before arrival at the British Museum for the exhibition Shakespeare: staging the world, the tapestry has spent over a year undergoing conservation. This work has enabled us to get close to the tapestry, and make exciting discoveries!
Removing the old lining revealed the vibrant original colour – it was very green! Light has faded the yellow colour from the green wool, so that the tapestry front now looks blue instead of green.
The tapestry's border was replaced in the 17th century. Removing the lining revealed fragments of the original Elizabethan border – much more lively and colourful than the later replacement.
In April 2011, the tapestry went to Belgium to be wet-cleaned. De Wit is a famous tapestry workshop which has developed a safe and fast method of wet-cleaning large textiles. The Sheldon Tapestry was washed, rinsed and dried in one day!
Wet-cleaning didn't restore the original bright colour, lost through light damage, but it did make tiny details easier to see.
The Rollright Stones, a Neolithic monument built at a similar time to Stonehenge, appear on the tapestry in the lower right corner. They are very hard to spot!
This is probably the first known visual depiction of this ancient site.
We've now noticed that this bear's claws are blue and that there are many tiny cottages hidden in the Forest of Arden.
We have made many new and fascinating discoveries during the last year, which has helped to build our knowledge of this wonderful object and its history.
See related article published 30 August 2012 in The Art Newspaper: Ancient Stones revealed on tapestry (This information was added on 13 September 2012)
Shakespeare: staging the world is open from 19 July to 25 November 2012.
The exhibition is supported by BP.

Get outta town
Ryan Fancey
May 16 2012 09:54AM
I won't lie, this article was brought about by two others I just read this morning: Should the Oilers go after Jordin Tootoo? by Jonathan Willis at Oilers Nation, and Why GMs Overpay for Bottom Six Players by the Leafs Nation's own Danny Gray.
Before you close your browser thinking "this idiot is going to suggest Tootoo to (to to to) the Leafs", don't! I will do no such thing. By the end of the Oilers Nation piece, where Willis pointed out Tootoo's crazy playoff tirade, I was quite positive that I wanted that guy as far away from the Leafs as possible. Not that I really care about players who say dumb things, but Tootoo really seems like a bit of a risk when you don't need to take one for a player of his skill level.
If Alex Semin said that stuff, I'd just look at highlights of him taking wristshots and all would be forgiven. But Tootoo? Too-shitty.
Willis did point out, however, that Tambellini and the Oilers may be seeking a "character guy":
"Tambellini's been clear all down the line that he's looking for a certain type of player, character-wise, and I'm not sure that Tootoo fits."
This got me to thinking about Colby Armstrong, and how, perhaps, he might fit with the Oilers. It didn't really end well, and now here we are
It seems like a perfect scenario, right? Tambellini is a bad GM and may want a guy like Armstrong who's Mr. Character, Burke needs to unload a 3 million dollar loaf of bread, so let's sign the papers.
This would probably make sense if Burke and Kevin Lowe didn't almost set up WrestleMania in a woodshed or whatever. But since that bridge is likely burned (or punched in to pieces), it's unlikely these two teams would lock up for a trade.
I haven't taken a hard look at Edmonton's situation, so this type of move may not be realistic for them since they don't want to take on much money to fill out a fourth line, and they certainly don't want to give up assets for it. I suppose the only way it seems reasonable is if they see Armstrong (as we did) as a versatile player who can bounce around the lineup. I'm sure someone with extensive Oilers-knowledge will let me know if that isn't the type of player they're looking for, despite the character factor. Either way, between their weird lineup and the Lowe/Burke feud, we can probably kibosh the Armstrong to Edmonton rumors before they start.
We can't just give up that easy though, this is a fanbase that ran Bryan McCabe out of town. It can't be too difficult to get Armstrong on a flight out before October. And maybe Lombardi too.
It would probably be nice to find a team in the same mindset that the Capitals were in when they gave Joel Ward 3 million dollars per season last summer. And that's probably a bit much to be honest - Armstrong only has a year left, Ward signed for four.
There are other clubs around who have third line-type players with contracts expiring this summer that could also be potential targets. I'd use "suitors" but I don't think it really applies here.
Any teams that you think could express interest in Armstrong?
For discussion's sake, I took a really quick look at CapGeek and noticed that Anaheim have both Blake (4M) and Hagman (1.5M) off the books this summer. They've bailed Burke out in the past, so there's that. They want to save cash for their big players going to UFA next summer, but again, only a year left for Armstrong so that doesn't really matter.
Langenbrunner's 2.75 million is expiring in St. Louis, so I guess it's possible that they take a look.
These guys I've mentioned grabbed about 20-30 points each this past season, which is about where Armstrong is supposed to be if he plays a good chunk of the season.
I guess what scares me the most isn't that there won't be interest in Armstrong, more so that Burke really doesn't want to trade him and clear out the cap space (loyalty and "good in the room" and stuff like that). You might think "is this really worth worrying about?" Well yes, because as everyone knows Armstrong will take a spot from a Marlies player who can do just as good of a job (who couldn't, really?) next season, and he'll make 3 million dollars doing so.
Three million that could have went towards a bid on Parise, Semin, Suter, whoever. Three million that could have allowed a trade for help in net. The Leafs' bottom six is now a pit of poorly spent money and it probably doesn't need to be.

Hmmm, 20ish point player, meh +/-, hasn't played a full season in 3 years...
I don't think the Oilers would be jumping for joy for that kid, not at 3 mil per...
Maybe if he came with incentives, but otherwise I can't see how a team would eat 3 mil of their caphit for a aging project if they have to pay for it.
May 17 2012, 06:06AM
It's one thing for Vancouver to take shots at the Oil, even Calgary because that's just the way it is, but a Toronto guy taking shots? I don't really care for alot of Tambos moves, or lack thereof, but Burke traded away a franchise center for a soft, one dimensional, disappear when it matters winger. How's that five year, we are avoiding a full rebuild plan working out? Why don't you throw a bunch of money at injury prone free agents? Etc. Take a hard look in your own backyard.
Wouldn't shock me if the Oilers took on Armstrong. They'll be looking to add character but they also don't want to add dollars that will inhibit their ability to re-sign their RFAs in a year's time. A guy who is, admittedly, overpaid, but only on a one year contract (something you rarely see in the UFA market) might be just what the doctor ordered in Edmonton.

Reciprocal Fractions
To find the reciprocal of a fraction, flip it over, so that the numerator becomes the denominator and the denominator becomes the numerator. That is:
The reciprocal of 4/5 is 5/4
Note that the product of a fraction and its reciprocal is always 1.
4/5 x 5/4 = 20/20 = 1
In the case of a whole number, think of it as having a denominator of 1:
The reciprocal of 5 is 1/5.
Every number has a reciprocal except for 0. There is nothing you can multiply by 0 to create a product of 1, so it has no reciprocal.
Reciprocals are used when dividing fractions.

Got Really Good Results!I used Surgi Wax for the first time on my under arms after trying a few others (w/ muslin strips .. impossible!!) well the results were great!!, not perfect but I think that was user error. it did not hurt!! I used some baby powder before waited between 15-30 seconds to remove, it was not painful at all and got lots of hair w/ the first yank!, the only problem was I may have put it on a bit too thick. TRY DOING THESE STEPS>>* sprinkle powder on skin before* apply warmed wax at a 45 degree, be sure not to apply it too thickly in, the area should be no larger than 4"x 2" (this makes removal easier, i think some people apply too long a strip)* wait 15 - 30 seconds and pull off in a upward motion against the skin.* rub baby oil on to remove excess and sooth skin ( i prefer using johnson & johnson gel formula baby oil)Aug 15, 2008Jena

Complete WasteI have difficult legs and nothing seems to work. So I turned to waxing. This product seemed easy and effective. I was wrong. It didnt hurt too much, but it only worked on about half my hair. I tried it over and over again and got the same effect. If you want a complete job well done, do not get this product.Jul 19, 2008Colleen / IL

Bad, Bad, Bad...I bought the surgi-wax eyebrow and facial hair wax and LOVED it. Its the green gooey kind with no strips. I then decided to wax my legs and went back to the store to get this product. It was not ANYTHING LIKE the eyebrow kind and it was terrible. The only way to apply the wax is with this plastic roll-on thingie that clogs as the wax builds up on it. Also, the one and only strip I ripped from my leg didnt get all my hair, was incredibly painful, and leftover wax stuck to my leg. I threw both boxes that I bought away and called my salon to have it done professionally so I didnt end up with splotchy, red, rashy legs for my vacation..Good luck with this product, youll need it!Jul 18, 2008Rachel / Idaho

Warning...don't Use This Product!I am extremely disappointed with this product. I followed the directions very closly. I tried a small patch on my upper leg and I was in so much pain trying to get it off. I was left with a raised, bleeding red patch. I cant believe this product is actually on the market.

Best Home Wax I Have Ever UsedI have tried others and this one actually worked for me. It does harden up quickly, so the key is doing small areas at a time. I did about 2x2 incvh areas and it worked great. I got the brazilian formula and used the oil supplied (left it on for a few minutes while I heated up the wax) and I didnt have any problems getting the wax off yet it did take all the hair as well. I really like this stuff and I will definitely use it again.Oh, and yeah, its painful (duh!), and I did have some bleeding, but I always get that when I wax (either myself or at the salon) so it doesnt faze me. Recommend!!Apr 27, 2008Heifzilla / Illinois

Love This Stuff!I was very hesitant about the new formula...but now I FREAKING CANT LIVE WITHOUT IT!!! The trick is to really know how to use it correctly. The oil is the KEY. You are a huge sticky mess without it and for some reason it only comes with the brazilian wax. I have very coarse hair and this product is the perfect thing for it for under $10. The only downside is the honey smell. It is very strong. But, I highly recommend it!Mar 20, 2008Alisha / Chicago, IL

Salon Quality!This wax is great. You really get salon results with this stuff. You dont have to go back over spots, all the hair comes off the first time. I love that you dont have to use cloth strips; it makes me feel like I have more control of the wax. The things that I found that helped were:1. If you have a piece that is hard to get off, pull off or cut off the excess and re-cover it with more wax in a longer strip away from the hair. Sometimes it is terribly painful if the edge where you are pulling from is right at the hair. If you have a longer strip you can rip it off easier like a bandaid.2. I usually remove the hair in a sort of circular fashion. Start on the outside and work your way in. Usually, only half of the width of my strip is actually covering hair and I try to extend the strip longer than where the hair is so I can get a good grip on the wax and can pull it off in a quick motion (avoids bruising and ripping the skin)3. Cover small areas of hair to be removed. Make sure the wax is relatively thin. If its too thick it will take forever to harden. (but if its too thin it can be hard to remove) Right when you can no longer see the hair is about the thickness the wax should be.4. And ofcourse...use talcum powder or other powder (I use an all natural cornstarch powder because I cant use talc) Put this on before you wax. This will make it pull off easier and not stick to the skin as much. Use baby oil to soothe your skin after and to remove any excess wax.I dont recommend this wax for face. Its much easier and safer to use the pre-waxed face strips. There is too much risk of getting this in your eyes or hair.If youve never waxed before, try this on your lower leg before moving to the bikini area.Good luck waxing!Mar 11, 2008Fae

Years Of PracticeSo, I have been using this product for about 10 years now. It is the best cheap home waxing kit, although it has taken me years to figure it out. It is messy, and sticky, and if you get it on your clothes it will most likely not come off. I have ruined so many t-shirts that I have changed to waxing topless. You also have to heat it perfectly, and it varies from microwave to microwave. Some batches seem stickier than others. It is really hit or miss. I could not live without this product, but it is hard as hell to use. I even use the bikini and body and leg stuff on my face from time to time, because I feel the wax leaves the skin easier than the face formula. I never use the face formula, it never comes off. And if you dont want pain the first few times, dont wax period. It can hurt with this stuff, it can hurt with a professional. Its so much cheaper than a professional though! For larger areas like bikini area, I suggest Nads strips. They are fantastic.Mar 10, 2008Kiddo56 / NYC
