For Ladies Who Hate Doing Their Hair..I am very lazy and hate spending time doing my hair. This product helps me maintain my lazy lifestyle by doing all the work for me.
I purchased this product YEARS ago but used it ONLY when I would blow dry my hair straight, which was rare. Over the last year, I started using a small, dime-sized dollop on my extremely long (waist length) wavy hair after a wash and now it is all I could ever need.
Pros: This product takes care of frizz while making your hair shiny and soft. I used to wash my hair every three days. Before I would use this product religiously, I would wash my hair the day before I was going anywhere because "day-old hair" always settled the best. Using this product, I could wash my hair the day of and it will look presentable enough for me.
Cons: This product leaves a greasy, annoying feel that lingers on your hands. I also have to wash my hair more often (every other day) because it gets greasy much more quickly than without it. It also weighs my hair down slightly; I noticed that my hair is much more light and bouncy without using this product - but while it is light and fluffy and I'm having a great time whipping my hair around in the wind, it looks like crap.. so I got used to the "heavier" feel.
Ways to avoid greasy hair: DO NOT USE TOO MUCH PRODUCT!! It is expensive for a reason - a little bit goes A LONG WAY! Like I said earlier, I have VERY long hair (down past my waist - think Alanis Morissette) and I use a TINY bit! If you think it's not working - it really is!! Also, avoid applying this product on your scalp! Focus on the length of your hair and maybe tips - but stay away from the scalp.

Bliss In A BottleOkay, so you wanted shine--it's blinding and greasless. You wanted a silky feel? It's purrrfect to the touch. This Fekkai product is everything you wanted it to be and more. Just put a pea-sized dot on the tip of your finger and rub it in your palms and finger tips and swirl it lightly throughout your hair, concentrating on the ends and the middle-length, not the roots. Voila! Creamy delight and compliments galore.
Hope that Folica gets this product back in stock soon! This is a winner.Mar 13, 2011Roberta C. / Ocala, FLHAIR TYPEBlonde / Curly Hair / Color Treated Hair / Thick or Coarse Hair

Had It For About A Week. Truly Does What It Promises. :)I have African American curly dry hair. Like, REALLY dry. My mom got me the 7 oz (which I thought was dumb, what if I hated it..?) and I used about a pea size the first time. It made my curls so soft and pretty shiny. Not mind blowing shiny though. But, my hair still could take a bit more. So I used a pea size and added about half of the pea size more (I wanted to be careful, I heard this can make hair greasy) and it was even more soft, shinier, and moisturized. By the way, this product moisturizes surprisingly well. So if I were you, try the travel size version first, then buy a bigger (if you need to. The travel will probably last 6 months or more!) But this product is definitely a keeper.Jun 7, 2010Tesah

Amazing!I have blonde tight curls and I never felt real comfortable to wear my hair natural. I tried this and it was great! It got rid of the frizz and helped me to just hop out of the pool put some in my hair and go. It's works really nicely! Especially paired with the beach waves spray! However if your hair gets greasy easily...you might want to steer clear of this. My friend who has straight thin hair didn't like it in her hair very much.Nov 18, 2009Kellie / Stafford, VA United States

Terrible.okay, i was hearing a lot of good buzz about this product yet when i purchased and tried the product several times i was left less than pleased. i don't like the smell at all for one, and i find that the product is extremely greasy. it doesn't look extremely greasy in the hair but just the overall feel of the product is pure grease. as for what it did to the hair, absolutely nothing! other then leaving a terrible smell i suppose. i haven't had it that long and i don't know what's up with it but it also turned extremely liquidy and now it's like water rather then lotion.Oct 9, 2009Unsatisfied

Leaves Hair SilkyI have VERY thick, curley, unruley hair. I have been using this product now for two years. For pin straight silky soft hair I dab a little of this and mix it with a dab of Chi's Silk Infusion and finish off the whole thing with my trusty GHD Flat Iron. works every time. You do need to go a little easy on the glossing cream 'cause it can get greasy. But the cream moisturizes and the chi adds heat protection and extra shine.Aug 31, 2009CindyHAIR TYPEChemically Treated Hair

I've Been Waiting 20 Years For A Product Like ThisNothing compares to this product.. Ive tried everything, trust me! If you have extremely damaged or dry hair, this will make styling and maintenance so much easier. I use this product while my hair is wet. Later when I use a flat iron or curling iron, my hair is sleek and shiny and soft. I relax my hair, and recently used this earlier in the day before relaxing on my dry hair. My hair was much less tangled and terrible the day after the relaxing treatment. Usually I have to wait almost a week before my hair feels normal again (its still not "normal" but a large improvement!). The only thing wrong with this product is price! And the fact that Folica never has it in stock.. boo!Aug 18, 2009Kittyj / United StatesHAIR TYPEDry Hair

Three Products In OneI love this stuff. It moisturizes the hair, smoothes the hair and it add shine. It has like hints of shimmer in the product. Its smells good and makes the hair look really really healthy..i have relaxed hair and its not oily or too thick. Excellent to wrap hair with and there is no need for oil sheen... Definitely a keeper!!May 2, 2009Niko / Chicago, IL

Owner Calls It: Pavelec Beats Bruins
Nation World HQ
December 06 2011 09:34PM
During a news conference before Tuesday night's game at MTS Centre, Winnipeg Jets owner Mark Chipman was asked if his hockey team could beat the defending Stanley Cup champion Boston Bruins. As a child, growing up in Winnipeg, Chipman had been a Bruins fan and admitted that he was thrilled that the Bruins were actually playing against his "new favorite team."
"It's going to be a tough game," Chipman said. "Let me put it this way. If we're going to win, our goalie has to be the star of the game."
It's almost like he called it.
With 15,004 spectators going absolutely bat-shit crazy, the upstart Jets beat the Bruins 2-1 and goaltender Ondrej Pavelec was the first star. By a mile.
Pavelec made 39 saves to get the win and even assisted on Andrew Ladd's opening goal as he led the Jets past a team that had won 13 of their last 14 games (13-0-1). The Bruins were outstanding on Tuesday night, but they had no answer for Pavelec, who has now won three straight. The Jets are now 12-11-4 and have moved a point behind eighth-place Ottawa in the East.
Tuesday night, there wasn't anything else you could say about the Jets. Say "Ondrej Pavelec" and you said it all. The team played hard and actually outshot Boston in the third period (14-13), but if Pavelec isn't almost perfect, the Jets don't win.
"You can't say enough about the fans," said Jets forward Chris Thorburn. "You can't imagine how loud it gets in here and we really feed off that. All elements of our game are working right now and it all starts with Pavo in net. He was great tonight. He's tied with me in points, too -- a three-way tie with me, him and Mason. That's embarrassing. We wouldn't be winning games right now if he wasn't playing the way he is. We have no problem with our goaltending."
No kidding.
"I thought we were doing some good things, we didn't make too many mistakes," said head coach Claude Noel. "We were playing for keeps, we weren't backing off. And those fans?! Those fans get into it in this building. Those people want to be on the bench. The fans are great.
"And what more can you say about Pavelec? He's playing pretty solid. The goaltding we've got gives us a chance to win every game right now. We get one or two goals and that might be enough for us. That gives a team a lot of confidence. Pavelec's really impressive. It's good stuff."
There were 15,004 people inside MTS Centre Tuiesday night who would definitely agree. And suddenly, the once-wonky Winnipeg Jets are in a playoff hunt.

Air King Standard Bath Exhaust Fans
Air King AK110LSAir King Bathroom Fan, 110 CFM Fan Only - for 4" Duct
Air King AK927Air King Bathroom Fan, 70 CFM w/ 2-Bulb Lamp Heater - for 4" Duct
How to Select
How to Shop Standard Bath Exhaust Fans
A good quality standard bath exhaust fan eliminates moisture from the wettest area of the house, protecting homeowners from mold, mildew and fungi, all while cleaning the air from stale odors and preventing walls and fixtures from cracking and waving. It is highly recommended to follow several tips in order to choose the right standard exhaust fan for the bathroom area.
Airflow Rating
First of all, it is very necessary to decide upon the right airflow rating. This value is measured in cubic feet per minute or CFM. In order to find out the required number of CFM, it is needed to measure the overall square footage of the room. According to the Home Ventilating Institute, one square foot of bathroom area should correspond to one CFM. The minimum airflow rate is 50 CFM. If the bathroom space is larger than 100 square feet, additional 50 CFM are needed for each bathtub, toilet, shower, and jetted tub.
Noise Level
The noise level value is measures in Sones. One Sone noise can be compared to the sound of a running refrigerator. Three sones value is a bit louder than a usual office noise level. A standard bathroom exhaust fan can have a noise level starting from below 1 and up to 4 Sones. In order to choose the right model, think over which noise level you can bear for about 15 minutes – this is an approximate time needed by the fan for air cleaning.
Added Features
Contemporary bath exhaust fans can be fitted out with a wide choice of added features. There are options for lighting, automated timers, and heaters. There also exists a bath fan equipped with a humidistat, which automatically regulates the fan's workflow in accordance with the humidity level inside the bathroom.
Ventilation Type
The ventilation type mainly depends on the existence of available space and proximity to the duct system location. There are three main types of ventilation system for standard bath exhaust fans:
- Ceiling-Mounted Fans. Such fans are mounted into the ceiling and vent outside the house through a duct system or roof. This is the most popular type of the exhaust bath fans because it perfectly removes damp and hot air when it is rising.
- Wall-Mounted Fans. These fans are mounted in exterior walls and ensure direct outside air pulling. The wall-mounted fans do not need a ductwork, but they are equipped with a visible register.
- Inline Fans. These fans are installed into the wall or ceiling, but their motor is placed between ducts, remotely pushing out the stale air.
While reading the above it is quite obvious that choosing a bath fan is not always an easy task. However, without a doubt your will be provided with a result that will leave you entirely satisfied. This absolutely smart home device simultaneously provides its owners with cleanness, safety and efficiency.

The one-storey villa with a size of 120 m2 counts with three bedrooms and is ideal families or groups of friends. There are 3 bedrooms. The first one is fitted with a bunk bed (for up to three people), the second one comes with a double bed and the third one also has another double bed and an en suite bathroom. In this room there is a sofa where someone else could sleep if you wish so. Then, the capacity of the house would be normally for 6 people and maximum for 8 people. Apart from the en suite bathroom, which is equipped with a shower cabin, there are other two bathrooms. There are 3 fans for the bedrooms.
Sit down in the spacious living area and spend your time reading a good book, watching television or just take a nap. There is air conditioning in the living room and in the kitchen. The dining area is located in the independent kitchen and it has a table and seats for 10 people. The kitchen is well equipped.
The exteriors are beautiful: step outside and have a barbecue, swim in the pool or just relax in the terrace. The terrace is furnished with two tables and seats for 10 people. Next to the private pool, 8 x 4 meters, there is an area with sun loungers for you to get tanned. There are 6.000 m2 of land with lots of almond trees, orange trees, etc.
If you are very active you will for sure enjoy the tennis court and basketball court that you will find right behind the house. There is also a table tennis to spend summer afternoons playing with family and friends.
There is one direct neighbor and a few others which are situated in the surroundings, but house and its installations are completely private. Pets under 5 kg are welcome. You will be able to park up to 3 cars outside the house in an uncovered space.
The house is only 3.5 km from the closest village, Campanet, and 6 km far from Sa Pobla, where you will find most of the things you will need during your stay: supermarket, medical center, pharmacy, bars, restaurants, etc. The beautiful village Pollença is also quite close. This place is worth a visit, you will enjoy its tiny cobbled streets with lots of shops, you will be able to go up to Calvari, a tiny church on the top of the village, where you will enjoy the astonishing views of the surroundings.
In only 20 minutes driving by car you will reach the beach of Capellans / Can Picafort. Apart of this beach area discover the main beach of Can Picafort with its animated sea promenade, the quiet zone of Playa de Muro and the crystal clear waters of the beaches of the municipality of Alcúdia.
We recommend visiting this house during spring, autumn and winter as well, as it has fireplace and central heating. You will be able to enjoy the hike trails around the mountains and the beautiful villa of Campanet. From this lovely villa you can discover and admire the awesome landscapes of Serra de Tramuntana, which was recently declared UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Makes me sick to think about it.
I've never seen the original One Piece, but I think thats a great voice. Also I'm definantly getting that game, especially after watching those vids for the last 20 minutes. @_@
Yeh, the voice is decent. I mean it isnt as good as the original japanese one that im used to, but we can work with it. Im just glad 4kids didn't dub his voice.
It's good enough and suits him. Comparing to other dubs I heard of Franky, it's really better.
oooo that game looks realy cool i hope its a rpg type game and not some gay fighting one only
it probly has to do with Franky not appearing in the anime yet. So there probly just trying to pass him off as a special character for the game so not to spoil things for later.
The voices still don't sound "similar" to the original Japanese voices, but that is understandable. However Franky's English voice is better then Luffy's or Chopper's English voices.
At least Robin, Nami, and Ussop sound somewhat nice.
It's just the Metroid series remade for the Xbox crowd.
However Samus Aran is now some unknown low ranking military personal.
Also the space pirates worship some giant doomsday hula hoop machine.

If you haven't heard, I'm chasing a dream...
Under going extensive training and USBC coaching from fellow co-host Dwight Albrecht and contributor Phil Brylow to try to make a run at Professional Bowlers Tour.
Lemme give you some background on my love for the sport..(Yes, IT IS a sport!)
I grew up just over the border in Mundelein, IL, a stones throw away from Mundelelin Lanes (now Lakeside Lanes) where my parents and I bowled leagues and where I got my first job as a lad.
When I wasn't cleaning up the bowling alley or dealing with a lane problems, I'd be bowling, ALOT! Part of my pay, FREE BOWLING! How could you NOT take advantage?
At one point, it was suggested that I try to make it on the Professional Bowlers Tour. At that same time the wonderful world radio entered my life and I chose radio instead of chasing my dreams of the PBA...UNTIL NOW!!
The Professional Bowlers Association is rolling through Milwaukee this Summer with the PBA GEICO Summer Swing at AMF Waukesha, AMF West and AMF Bowlero Bowling Centers and I''M GOING FOR IT!
Click here to listen to show were I announced, WISH ME LUCK and come along for a ride, in what is going to be a Fantastic Voyage!

Classic style
"This classic t-strap goes beautifully with myriad outfits, dressy to csual, day to evening. The heel height is just right, not too tall, yet tall enough to give the legs and ankle that sleek sexy look. I was worried that the cutouts would make the back unstable, but that is not the case. The shoe is not "wobbly" at all."

While most of this is borderline slutty, we can't help but admire the long limbs and awesome denim separates featured in this editorial from Vanity Fair Italia May 2011. Shot by Sergi Pons, model Jules Mordovets seduces the lens from every angle in tied-up cropped denim work shirts, denim shorts with thigh-highs, and super-high heels. We love the ruffled one-piece jumper in the opening image below—a super cute, feminine take on traditional denim styles.

MySQL University: Securich - Security Plugin for MySQL
By Stefanhinz-Oracle on Feb 23, 2010
This Thursday (February 25th,
13:00 UTC - way earlier than usual!), Darren Cassar will present Securich - Security Plugin
for MySQL. According to Darren, the author of the plugin, Securich is an incredibly handy and versatile tool for managing user privileges on MySQL through the use of roles. It basically makes
granting and revoking rights a piece of cake, not to mention added security it provides through password expiry and password history, the customization level it permits, the fact that it runs on any MySQL 5.0 or later and it's easily deployable on any official MySQL binary, platform independent.
More information here: http://www.securich.com/about.html.
For MySQL University sessions, point your browser to this page. You need a browser with a working Flash plugin. You may register for a Dimdim account, but you don't have to. (Dimdim is the conferencing system we're using for MySQL University sessions. It provides integrated voice streaming, chat, whiteboard, session recording, and more.)
MySQL University is a free educational online program for engineers/developers. MySQL University sessions are open to anyone. All sessions (slides & audio) are recorded; the links will be on the respective MySQL University session pages which are listed on the MySQL University home page.
Here's the tentative list of upcoming sessions:
- March 4: MySQL Column Databases (Robin Schumacher)
- March 11: Improving MySQL Full-Text Search (Kristofer Pettersson)
By the way, did I mention that we need more speakers to fill up the 2010 schedule? If you'd like to be a speaker, have a look at this blog article!

I was amazed that my knee pain left me and I ran my fastest 5k yesterday in a year with no knee hip/pelvic pain. Yeah I look like Bozo the Clown with these, (have red hair too) but I'm not wearing another shoe until I lose thirty pounds. These are great shoes for old fat men like me with skinny legs and crappy joints. Maube they will keep me running longer before I blow all my joints
From: Russ, PA, USA. September 21st 2014
Comments: Couple of notes. Sent these back--be warned that if you are normally a 10 in most nikes or sauoconys, you will be a 9.5. they run big. Also--the upper is HOT. Trying bondi 3s to see if they work better for me. The comfort hype is true, but didn't have enough runs on them to form a long-term opinion. Return policy is great.
From: Anonymous. June 20th 2014
Comments: I've run marathons off & on for 13 years. I'm 5'06" and 200# with dead flat feet, but a neutral gait. I wear out the rear outside edge of my shoes as I swing into a mid-foot landing (outside edge and the ball area of all of my shoes wear down over time). I bought a pair of Hoka Stinson Tarmacs at a marathon expo and then the next two days I ran two marathons in them with no break in. My legs weren't as sore as in my Kayanos. They are very cushy shoes, maybe a little too stiff from heel to toe (like a board). I've purchased 6 more pairs (Trail, Mafate, Bondi) and like the Stinson's the most. However, after about 20 more miles on the original pair on the treadmill (around 80 miles total), the outside of the sole is 1/2 way gone already!!! I think Hoka needs to use a lot firmer rubber compound or something on their Tarmac version. Otherwise it would cost about $1 per mile to wear these things out on the road!
From: Rod, Arlington, WA, USA. 2/10/14
Comments: A big step in quality from the original Bondis. I have this and the Trail version. Both are great shoes and perfect for those that get injured a lot. A soft ride, but responsive and light enough for faster running. They are great for people will skinny feet, but not skinny enough for a smaller width. Highly recommend.
From: Pat, Raleigh, NC, USA
Comments: These shoes were recommended to me by a running store to help me come back after a stress fracture due to the amount of cushion they provided, so I decided to give them a try. Right away they felt odd, almost like I was running on cushioned stilts. They made me almost a full inch taller than any other running shoe I have worn, but they did absorb a lot of the pounding. I noticed however, after a few weeks in these shores one of my ankles began hurting. I thought I must have tweaked it , so I gave it some rest. However, after every single run over the next few months, my ankle would hurt so bad I could hardly walk the next morning. I kept taking time off from running only to have the pain come back after my next run. I only put about 200 miles on these shoes before I decided go back to an old pair of running shoes and lo and behold, my ankle felt better immediately. It didn't feel better in a few days or after a few runs, it felt better after my very first run switching back to my old shoes and the pain never came back as long as I wore my old shoes. I decided to try the Hoka Stinson Tarmac one more time and again; my right ankle hurt the very next day. I have found that I can't even wear these shoes and go for a walk without developing ankle pain and on top of that they don't come in any other width which makes them a little too narrow for me anyway. Overall, this shoe raises you up so far off the ground that it really takes some time to get used to and alters the way you run. I suspect that had something to do with my ankle pain. They were very plush, fairly comfortable, and surprisingly light for the size, but I was unable to wear these shoes, not to mention they might also be the ugliest shoe I have ever seen.
From: Scott, St. Louis, MO
Comments: I am 5'11", 228 lbs, and generally wear running shoes that are rated the highest stability or the lowest motion control rating, based on runningwarehouse's star system - not due to any true excessive pronation or supination, but because I've had PF before and try to gently limit extra pronation. I wanted to try these instead because being a heavier guy, my knees talk to me sometimes. These feel strange at first. I've only run 3 miles so far. The cushioning is plush but is a little more floaty than I would prefer. I would like them to make a model that incorporates some stability features, if just slightly firmer foam around the sides. As it is, medial and lateral lower leg muscles will receive more exercise, which is fine but I wonder if that may temporarily increase the risk of injury until the muscles are stronger and/or the foam is worn in.
From: Rob, Des Moines, IA
Comments: Per hoka, the heel-to-toe is 4mm. This shoe is great for longer runs. Was having some PF and have been able to continue to run with these. I do not like them on the treadmill, however pavement and trails are amazing. Takes a few runs to get use to them but its great. 5 stars.
From: LJ, PA
Comments: I'm 5'11, 150, a neutral runner (47) running about 45 mpw. Thought I'd give these a try to help ease the pounding for longer runs. I didn't like them and returned them locally. Too big, bulky, and hot for me. They do have a plush ride, but if you're a midfoot/forefoot striker it seems hard to get around that wide heel area. Overall, they don't seem heavy. Just weren't right for me.
From: Robert, Washington DC
Comments: I tried the Bondi B as my 1st pair of Hoka's and loved them and still love them after 300 miles. Wanted to try the Stinson Evo Tarmac due to a more durable sole. They arrived on April 1, 2013 and I put 2 miles on them. Can't wait to get them broken in proper. I am 6'2 280 lbs and get 300 miles out of a shoe, its amazing.
From: Jeff, Randleman, NC
Comments: Arrived Dec 25th, by Jan 17th with approx 60 miles on pavement my apparently imperfect foot strike had worn through the outer rubber on one heal, 2nd not far behind .. first time I've shopped for "shoe goo" in about 30 years ..
From: Gary, Mesquite, NV, USA
Comments: At last a shoe I can run long miles in and not feel like my feet have been hammered on. These shoes will affect your running form, so be careful transitioning into them. I'm staying on my forefoot in these shoes as much as possible. I have used them for speed training on the track several times, and I am shocked I can run fast in these shoes. My feet are in the best shape they have been in years. My only complaint is the upper which needs to be more breathable. Superb product!

Geithner Fight on Fiscal Cliff Invokes Dodd-Frank Resolve
When U.S. senators were picking apart the Obama administration's plan for a stand-alone consumer- protection bureau during negotiations on the financial-rules overhaul, Treasury Secretary Timothy F. Geithner agreed to put it under the Federal Reserve to ensure that Republican lawmakers wouldn't kill it.
Geithner calculated the bureau wouldn't be affected and backing down would help get the 2010 legislation passed. His compromise illustrates the pragmatic approach Geithner embraced in pressing for Dodd-Frank during his four years at the Treasury and will need to draw on in one final test as the administration's lead negotiator with Congress on the so-called fiscal cliff.
"There were some very ticklish issues that had to be dealt with," former Senate Banking Committee Chairman Christopher Dodd, the bill's co-sponsor, said in an interview. "Tim was certainly reaching out. He made a big difference in making sure we could keep people together on what we ultimately came up with."
Geithner Joins Boehner to Trade Blame on Fiscal Cliff Talks
Geithner -- the longest-serving and most influential of President Barack Obama's economic advisers -- will leave the Treasury in mid-January after testifying before Congress 67 times, appearing 24 times on Sunday talk shows and making 98 trips within the U.S. and abroad. He's staying to deal with more than $600 billion in tax increases and spending cuts that take effect automatically in January unless Congress acts. If the cliff isn't averted, the U.S. could fall back into recession, according to the Congressional Budget Office.
Higher Taxes
Geithner and the administration are insisting on higher taxes for the largest-income earners while pushing for an extension of middle-class tax cuts. Republicans have signaled a willingness to discuss those measures in exchange for reductions in entitlement spending.
Geithner goes into the talks shaped by crises. In September 2008, four months before he moved to the Treasury, he was president of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York when the government rescued insurer American International Group Inc. (AIG) and allowed Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. to go into bankruptcy. By the end of 2009, Europe fell into a debt crisis and Geithner became the chief U.S. liaison with European officials.
"You learn a lot about someone in the midst of a crisis," Henry Paulson, Treasury secretary under President George W. Bush during the bailouts, said in an interview. "He was a terrific partner and had great energy and stamina, someone who was always very calm."
Deserve Credit
Paulson said Geithner deserves "great credit for skillfully navigating a very difficult transition and balancing the tendency of a new president to change direction while understanding the need to maintain stability and build on what had been put in place to restore the markets."
The U.S. lost more than 2 million jobs in the first quarter of 2009, and gross domestic product was shrinking at a 5.3 percent annual rate. For the quarter ending Sept. 30 of this year, 521,000 jobs were added, and the economy grew at a 2.7 percent rate. The Standard & Poor's 500 Index has more than doubled since reaching a 12-year low on March 9, 2009. Even so, the deficit has surpassed $1 trillion in each of the last four fiscal years, and public debt as a percentage of GDP is the highest since 1950.
Geithner will exit as one of the Obama administration's most divisive figures because of his leadership roles in Dodd- Frank and the bailouts of Wall Street banks.
Supporters, Critics
Supporter Lee Sachs, a Geithner aide in 2009 and early 2010, says the Treasury secretary "probably did as much as anybody in the country to help prevent a depression." He "is very good about making sure he understands the whole playing field and has done his homework," Deputy Treasury Secretary Neal Wolin said in an interview. "And then he plays his cards very adroitly."
Critics Sheila Bair, former chairman of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp., and Neil Barofsky, former special inspector general of the bailout program, wrote books this year in which they accuse Geithner of being more interested in helping financial institutions than homeowners.
Geithner was "the bailouter in chief" who supported the "propping up of all the big banks," Bair wrote in "Bull by the Horns." She said Geithner advocated policies that accommodated weak institutions and didn't put a priority on protecting taxpayers or helping households struggling to avert foreclosure.
Republicans say Geithner has done little to address the housing slump or the $1.09 trillion budget deficit.
Mortgage-Finance 'Shambles'
"The fiscal situation is uncertain, and our mortgage- finance system is a shambles," said Mark Calabria, director of financial-regulation studies at the Cato Institute, a Washington-based research group that promotes limited government and free markets, and a former aide to Republicans on the Senate Banking Committee.
"It's hard to imagine a Treasury secretary who has left more undone or unfixed, though they weren't all things that he broke," he said.
Geithner declined to be interviewed about his legacy. In July, he told Charlie Rose there were no alternatives to the measures the administration took to "protect Main Street" and pull "the economy back from the abyss." He said "there are millions and millions of Americans in their homes today" because of the efforts to prevent foreclosures.
Election Victory
Obama's Nov. 6 election victory may boost Geithner's legacy because "if a year or two from now we have a strong economy, all of Tim Geithner's sins will be essentially forgiven," Calabria said.
The 51-year-old got off to a rough start. His failure to pay more than $34,000 in taxes was disclosed after Obama nominated him, and he won Senate confirmation in January 2009 by the slimmest margin for a Treasury secretary since World War II. His roll out of a bank-rescue plan on Feb. 10, 2009, triggered a 4.9 percent drop in the S&P 500 as investors dismissed his proposal as inadequate.
"Geithner is not the best communicator," said Stan Collender, a former aide to the House and Senate budget committees who is now a partner at Qorvis Communications in Washington. "As smart as he is, he's not an empathetic, inspire-confidence, charismatic kind of leader."
Public Outcry
The following month, Geithner was caught in a public outcry over $165 million in bonuses paid to employees of the AIG unit blamed for the insurer's near-collapse. Barofsky said the Treasury had paid "scant attention" to AIG's pay structure, and Obama called the bonuses an "outrage." Lawmakers including Representative Darrell Issa, a California Republican, said Geithner should quit.
"He went through a hell of a fire," former White House Chief of Staff Bill Daley said in an interview. "Everybody dumped all over him; everybody wanted him fired in '09. And he hung in there."
A turning point may have been the May 2009 stress tests for 19 of the biggest U.S. banks, including Bank of America Corp. and Wells Fargo & Co. (WFC) Geithner was the administration's chief proponent of the examinations, which boosted investor confidence in the financial firms.
His lasting mark, though, may turn out to be his leadership of the drive for Dodd-Frank in the face of vigorous opposition from Republicans and Wall Street lobbyists.
Another Name
"If you want to put another name on the bill, Tim Geithner's name belongs on it," Dodd said. Geithner was valuable explaining to lawmakers complex issues such as derivatives and the Volcker rule, said Dodd, who is now head of the Motion Picture Association of America.
The bill created the consumer bureau, toughened rules on derivatives trading, set up a liquidation process for failing banks and put under Fed supervision bank-holding companies with more than $50 billion in assets -- a group that includes Citigroup Inc. (C), Bank of America and Morgan Stanley. (MS)
Geithner's mantra was that banks need enough capital to ensure that one company's mistakes don't cause a broader panic.
"The critical thing was to make sure that banks and other meaningful financial institutions had huge amounts of capital available" so when they suffered losses, the financial system would be "properly insulated," Wolin said.
Some Dodd-Frank work may not be completed until after Geithner leaves the Treasury. Regulators still are working on writing provisions, including the proprietary-trading ban named for former Fed Chairman Paul Volcker that's intended to reduce the chance banks will risk depositors' money.
Critics' Blame
The law's critics say the Treasury secretary is to blame for many of its shortcomings.
"Dodd-Frank is a big legacy of Tim Geithner's, which I think will look worse and worse as time goes on," said Alex Pollock, a fellow at the American Enterprise Institute in Washington, a research group that promotes free enterprise, and a former president of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Chicago. Dodd-Frank is marred by "Byzantine complexity" and "faith in bureaucracy," he said.
Another piece of Geithner's legacy that divides supporters and detractors is the Troubled Asset Relief Program, which bailed out companies including AIG, Citigroup and General Motors Co. (GM) The bank portion of TARP has been profitable, and the CBO projected in October that the entire program will cost taxpayers $24 billion, down from an estimate of $109 billion in March 2010.
Close Relationship
Geithner and Fed Chairman Ben S. Bernanke are the two most senior government officials remaining from the 2008 financial crisis and bailouts, and the two have a close relationship.
"The main thing we share," Geithner said in a November 2010 interview, "is that we went through the searing experience of the panic together, trying to design a strategy to contain it and clean up the mess afterward. We have the bond you get from that kind of combat."
He's defended Bernanke and the Fed against critics in Congress, and despite prodding from journalists and lawmakers, Geithner is careful in his public remarks not to offer opinions on monetary policy.
Geithner's time at the Treasury has coincided with increasingly tense relations between the Obama administration and Republican lawmakers.
He "has few allies on Capitol Hill," and the difficulties in his Senate confirmation should have been a "red flag" that he needed to work on this, Calabria said.
Boehner Rapport
Geithner has improved his rapport with some congressional Republicans, including House Speaker John Boehner, the party's key lawmaker in the fiscal-cliff talks. Boehner, who called for Geithner's ouster in August 2010, prefers to deal with the Treasury secretary than any of Obama's other negotiators, according to a House Republican aide close to the speaker.
Boehner and other Republican leaders, in a letter to Obama today, proposed $1.4 trillion in spending cuts as well as $800 billion in new revenue by limiting tax breaks and capping deductions for top earners. The Republican plan would cut spending on entitlements such as Medicare and Medicaid by at least $900 billion and save another $300 billion through cuts in discretionary spending, according to the letter.
While Geithner has tried to minimize differences with Republicans in congressional hearings by asserting that their views and his aren't far apart, his unwillingness to stray from the administration's message often frustrates questioners.
Ryan Clash
At a House Budget Committee hearing in February, Geithner clashed repeatedly with Chairman Paul Ryan, the Wisconsin Republican who later became his party's candidate for vice president.
Ryan mocked a favorite saying of Geithner's -- that a plan beats no plan -- saying Obama's budget didn't address the nation's fiscal challenges and was really not a plan at all.
"I think you have to decide just for consistency, OK, are you going to say you do not like our plan, which proves we have a plan? Or we don't have a plan?" Geithner said.
Ryan also asked Geithner if he thought the administration was showing leadership by waiting "for other people to do something."
"You guys just spent about six months threatening to default on obligations you gave us, you bequeathed to us," Geithner said, referring to last year's debt-limit negotiations. The session ended with Ryan cutting off Geithner.
"You really, really want to have the last word," Ryan said. "I'm just not going to let you have it. This hearing's adjourned."
Better Rapport
Geithner's rapport with his European counterparts is better, even as he pressures the region's leaders to move more quickly and decisively to erase investor concerns that the euro debt crisis will spread.
Geithner has shown a "perfect understanding of regulation issues," Bank of France Governor Christian Noyer told reporters after a Nov. 5 meeting of Group of 20 economic officials in Mexico City. "He was extremely active in contributing to the global consensus on the main steps of financial regulation." Noyer is also a member of the European Central Bank's governing council.
From January 2010 to June 2012, Geithner had at least 168 meetings or phone calls with euro-area officials and 114 with the International Monetary Fund, according to an analysis of Geithner's appointments by Jean Pisani-Ferry, director of Brussels-based research group Bruegel.
'Fully Consistent'
The U.S. takes a "public posture of a cheerleader and a private posture of scolding and coaxing and cajoling," said Ted Truman, who worked with Geithner as assistant Treasury secretary for international affairs in the last two years of Bill Clinton's presidency. "They made a decision that is fully consistent with Tim Geithner's personality not to go public with their criticism."
He has spent more time at the Treasury than any other secretary, first joining the staff in 1988 and rising to undersecretary for international affairs by 1999. He spent two years at the IMF before being named president of the New York Fed in 2003. Geithner has been Treasury secretary longer than anyone since Robert Rubin, who served from 1995 to 1999.
International Portfolio
His international portfolio gives Geithner credibility with European central bankers and finance officials as "a former member of the fraternity," said Truman, who is now a senior fellow at the Peterson Institute for International Economics in Washington. His relationship with ECB President Mario Draghi goes back to the 1990s, when Draghi was director general of Italy's Treasury department.
Geithner's emphasis on insulating failing banks dates to that period, when he was part of U.S. efforts to stem the Asian financial crisis that spread from Thailand in 1997.
He puts "lots of focus on contagion and spillover effects, and thinking that through," said Mark Sobel, a deputy assistant Treasury secretary for international monetary and fiscal policy who has known Geithner since they played on the department's international-affairs softball team two decades ago. "In his intellectual approach to crises, a tenet is you have to amass power to try and quell" them.
Despite the camaraderie, European leaders have been slow to follow Geithner's suggestions, such as using the ECB to boost the firepower of the euro area's rescue fund.
Little Leverage
"The U.S. has very little economic or political leverage in Europe," said Eswar Prasad, a professor at Cornell University in Ithaca, New York, and former IMF official. Other than passing on lessons learned during the financial crisis, "it's hard to see what else" it could do.
Geithner has at times been frustrated "that the Europeans were not able, or willing, to act fast enough to stop their economies from being dragged down," said Michael Barr, who worked under Geithner as assistant secretary for financial institutions in 2009-2010.
Geithner will be leaving the Treasury more than a year after he initially wanted to, with he and the White House in a "kabuki dance" from about March to August 2011 over when he could resign, said Daley, then chief of staff.
During the summer, he occasionally inquired about the search for a potential successor, and one day asked how the vetting was progressing, according to Daley.
"I said, 'Tim, nobody's in vetting,'" Daley said. "You go convince the president, and until he tells me to vet somebody, I ain't vetting anybody. So, your problem."
Obama wanted Geithner to stay, and Geithner agreed he would remain at least through the 2012 election.
Geithner hasn't announced what he will do next. In a September interview in New York with Charlie Rose, Geithner said it's "not really my thing" to sit at a desk and write a book, though he didn't rule it out.
Wolin, Geithner's deputy, said his boss understands that "what matters is what the history books write, not what the newspapers write on that day. He's playing for the long game."

New gigs: Glen Campbells farewell, Odd Future, Henley at the Greek, Empire of the Sun returnsAugust 10th, 2011, 12:30 am by BEN WENER, THE ORANGE COUNTY REGISTER
I took some heat from Glen Campbell fans two years ago when I reviewed his rich but rusty show at the Grove of Anaheim. His expert guitar playing, I said, was still in top-notch form, his voice as strong as ever, and more poignant. But his showmanship was sketchy, hard to follow. I especially took him to task over needing lyric sheets for songs he'd sung thousands of times. Even at 73, surely he'd remember all the words to "Wichita Lineman."
Of course, now we all know differently. Campbell likely was beginning to descend into Alzheimer's at that point, as he announced in June that he had been diagnosed with the disease at the start of 2011. The fact that he's heading out on one last tour - simply but somewhat morbidly named The Goodbye Tour - before his condition inevitably worsens is very brave and generous indeed.
And it makes Campbell's (so far) sole Southern California stop all the more important to lifelong fans. Rarely do you know with such certainty that this will be the last time you'll ever see an artist perform. So be there: Oct. 6 at Club Nokia. Tickets, $45-$60, go on sale Friday, Aug. 12, at 10 a.m.
He also plays Reno on Oct. 1, then spends much of October/November in the U.K. Might he return to the Grove before retiring? I sure hope so. I'd love to hear that honeyed voice one last time, and reconsider what it was I thought I witnessed two years ago.
On a completely different note at Club Nokia: Aussie electro-pop spectacle Empire of the Sun, the Luke Steele-fronted band whose set was among the high points of Coachella 2011, is coming back again, Oct. 16 at L.A. Live venue. Tickets, $35-$45, are on sale Saturday at 10 a.m.Read the rest of this entry »

Big Cats: Secret Lives DVD
For 30 years, John Varty has translated his passion for the natural world into a series of remarkable relationships with some of the most dangerous creatures on earth - living with them in the wild, on their own terms . . . and on their own turf. Nine Lives will track his journey from a kid who grew up killing as many big cats as he could . . . to a pioneer of conservation and ecotourism on the same game reserve where his family had been hunting predators for almost 100 years. Along the way, Nine Lives will tell the story of his most intimate relationships with big cats: a wild mother leopard, an abandoned lion cub, two adopted leopard cubs and his current project - bringing two captive-bred tiger cubs to Africa and teaching them to survive in the wild. Over time, Varty would be accepted into one of nature's most exclusive clubs . . . the private lives of apex predators, eventually at very close range. He would live with - and make films about - some cats for years - creating a remarkable chronicle of wildlife behavior and a new kind of intimacy between human and predator.

|In response to Re: Convert bath/shower drain to shower drain
: : i have a ruff in bath/shower drain of 1 1/2" in my basement but want to chnage this to a shower only. would the 1 1/2" work or do I need to bust up the concrete and replace with 2". I'm at the stage of finishing the concrete shower pan and really do not want to bust up the concrete. I'm about 4 feet from the main drain.
: : What can I do?
: Take the concrete out and do the job right. I am a little old grandma and I can do a job like that in less than half a day.
From what I remeber when I was adding the drain for the bathroom sink and the sink for the bar both drains were 1 1/2 which I then feed into the main stack from the upstairs sink which was also 1 1/2. Not sure whats under the concrete could be a bigger job whern I get there. I can't see running into problems as a bath tub showers drains into a 1 1/2 and there no standing water. I totally agree that doing it right the first time is the way to go but the builder put this in when the house was built. The curb of the shower is 6 inches high so there should be no fear of an overflow.
