Could Be BetterThis is my second epilator. My first i really liked, except for the fact that it was small and required batteries. so i decided to get a bigger one and corded. My disappointed is the ingrown hair this one leaves behind. also i should have got cordless since this one is not rechargeble...Jan 27, 2014Erica P. / New York City

Breaks Easily, Have Bought A New One Each YearIm getting ready to purchase my third emjoi light caress. They have never last much longer than a year each. The only reason i continue buying this brand/style is its the only one with the light on it. It makes a world of difference! You can see all the hair you miss. I did buy a cheap bran from walgreens as a back-up but its horrible. Be careful how you clean it! My first one broke because i cleaned it wrong, clean only in the direction the tweezer wheel spins. My second one broke on its own after a little over a year :( it does work relatively well, it breaks hair after a while of use when your hair gets thinner. My only two complaints.Dec 27, 2013AshlyHAIR TYPEThick or Coarse Hair

First Use FeedbackI primarily purchased this product to remove underarm hairs. I have been waxing for over 10 years and a technician at a local nail salon recently shared her secret weapon with me, the Emoji Caress. The idea of saving money was a no brainer for me so I decided to try it out. I have only used it once and must say that I am very impressed. I read many reviews on various websites about the pain. I braced myself for an excruciating experience but was pleasantly surprised at how painless it was. This may have to do with the fact that I followed the manufacturer's instructions by using it post-shower to ensure that the skin is supple. The only reason I did not give this prodcut 5 stars is that there were several hairs that did not budge. I am sure that over time I will figure out the right technique to remove my coarse hair.Jul 30, 2013Mona / New Jersey

I Have Low Pain Tolerance! Do You?I love this epilator, but I feel like the curve of the tweezers or whatnot is badly shaped because it doesn't reach all the spots I want and it breaks a lot of my hair off instead of pulling it out.
Well, I feel like it breaks my hair off because I have thin hair, so it's not really the epilator's fault, still they should look into it.
I am very sensitive. I am normally so intolerant to pain, every little thing hurts me. Every pinch, poke, jab hurts like crazy. However, epilating doesn't really hurt, surprisingly. It really just feels like how it normally feels when you tweeze out hair, plus some vibrations.
Before you get this, try tweezing an area of your leg or armpits or where-ever you intend to use this, for a month or so, just to test the waters and see if you want to invest in this.
To be completely honest, this tickles my leg so much I want to cry.
I was terrified of the sound at first, THE NOISE IS INSANELY LOUD!! I think the noise is what bumped it from a 5 star to a 4 star. Too scared to put it on my leg the first time from the intimidating ZZZZZZ noises.
I got the corded version, but I think the rechargeable version would be much more convenient.Apr 23, 2013Sherry / New YorkHAIR TYPEBlack / Fine or Thin Hair

A Great Product!I have had my Emjoi epilator for about two weeks now, and have to say that I'm very happy with this product. I was nervous about using it, after reading some comments, but I find that it does not hurt nearly as much as I expected, nor is the sound so loud. I really love it and wish that I had bought one years ago. Looking forward to the summer and not having to shave every single day- Love Love Love the smooth legs now! Thank you!Mar 21, 2013Marie / VA

Dont Do It!I bought this for summer and tried it out for a few months hoping it would get better. I used it everywhere...
Legs and Underarms- Painful the first time but totally fine after that. No ingrowns however I would have to go over the same spot like 50 times. I don't have a lot of hair, all blonde, and it would take 20 minutes to do my underarms, while shaving takes 2 seconds. My legs would take about an hour and still several hairs were missed. If you have the time and don't mind, it was pretty nice having smooth legs. However, many of the hairs were broken off, not plucked so i had to use this at least every 2 weeks.
Brazilian- Most painful thing I have ever done. The first time took about 2 hours. And since it misses so many hairs, at one point i was doing each hair one by one, and it still wouldn't get many hairs. After a few uses, the pain level was totally fine however i got AWFUL ingrowns. Ive NEVER had ingrows, razor burn, or bumps from shaving or waxing and i got terrible ingrowns. Deep ones that wouldn't come out. I was even using the PBR stuff to prevent and help them but it did nothing. It took about 3 months of not using this epilator for them to all finally go away and my skin to look normal again.
You get what you pay for. This one is cheap and works like it. I doubt a nicer epilator would require you to go over the same spots repeatedly and get hairs one-by-one.Oct 11, 2012Courtney / Orange CountyHAIR TYPEBlonde / Normal Hair

Unbelievable!Update: I've recently commented about this product and how great it was, but now that it' summer... I love it even MORE! I use to dread waxing in the summer because of the heat, mess, and melting of wax. I have saved sooo much money by buying this. Also my hair growth is much slower. And I don't need to remove hairs as much. I use to wax every month, but now I can go almost two months without hair removal. I sure as heck don't miss waxing.Jul 23, 2012Delia / Orange County

Works AlrightI'm surprised this item has such great reviews. I've used it twice now and it took FOREVER. I have light hair so I cannot do laser which is why I tried this out. For my legs and arm pits, it pinches but really not that painful, manageable. The issue was that I had to go over that same spot like 80 times to get all the hairs. I almost had to do it one-by-one in some areas. I did my legs and then re-did them 4 days later for all the hairs it wouldn't get. It never grabbed the hairs that are much thinner on the back of my thighs. For my arm pits, it took going over the same spot over and over and over in every direction to get it all.
Brazilian is a whole different story. Most painful thing I've ever done. Imagine waxing, but instead of like 5 big strips, doing 3 hairs at a time. Once again there were hairs I had to go over soooo many times to get them. And other areas, where the skin is softer, it basically isn't possible. If the skin is not held back very tightly, the machine will suck it up (scary and painful) so you almost need a third hand.
As for ingrowns, I wasn't going to take any changes so I got the PFB treatment. Only got a few small ingrowns on my bikini line that were gone after about 2 days and none anywhere else!Jun 12, 2012Court / Newport Beach, CAHAIR TYPEBlonde / Normal Hair / Fine or Thin Hair

The law enforcement leaders opposing officers volunteering to assist ICE immigration enforcement need to reconsider. Rep. Steve King (Immigration committee) reports illegal aliens daily kill 12 Americans, kill 13 Americans due to DUI, and molest eight American children. (So much for Bushs "illegals are fine folks trying to support their families".)
A few Utah victims are 12 year old Jesse Martinez; Cheryl, Ian, and Julinna Ceran; Joseph Criddy, and The St. George good Samaritan nurse. All 9/11 terrorists violated US immigration law.
Urge your state lawmakers to support Glenn Donnelson's HB 105---the life you save may be your childs.


text: As I mentioned in a past post, there are currently missed opportunities to improve our nation. This is nothing new. When it comes to race, wealth and inequality in American politics and society; American history is littered with missed opportunities. The Civil War and it's aftermath serve a one of many major moments of missed opportunity. After the war, which was fought in great part over the issue of slavery, reconstruction was prematurely halted and Blacks were given no opportunity to work on a level playing field when it came to working towards equality of opportunity in the political arena, economic arena and the social arena.

We watched the WHCD last night for OBama's and McHale's talks (it was on CSPAN and CNN). Obama was good – pretty funny for someone whose main occupation isn't being a comedian. McHale was just awful (and I really like him on The Soup, don't watch Community). His jokes were poorly written and even more poorly delivered. It was like he just wrote some stuff down at the last minute. Most of the time he was just reading it, not making eye contact with the audience. Here's a link discussing it: http://www.deadline.com/2014/05/white-house-correspondents-dinner-2014-live-blog/ (sorry, don't know how to make a clicky).

"kneepads" perfectly describe mainstream celebrity based media like People mag, Us weekly, Entertainment Tonight, Extra. There's NO journalistic integrity there NONE.

I don't know if your dictionary is in Esperanto or what, but writing about tween starlets being abused and molested, naming the girls but not the perpetrators, and then labeling it as a blind item – this is a far cry from hard-hitting, or even actual, journalism.ReplyCancel
@David Mchale didn't play the creep trying to get in MJ's pants in Spidey 2, he played a bank officer that Aunt May and Peter were talking to when Doc Ock attacked. When the gold coins went flying everywhere, he tried to pocket one and Aunt May slapped his hand and made him drop it.ReplyCancel
George StephanopolosReplyCancel
This is not McHale. As for his performance, it wasn't bad, the jokes were all well structured/relevant/delivered fine, the issue was the venue isn't hospitable to that type of comedy, it's a notoriously hard room, and the press take their cues from the Pres/1st lady. Obama smiles and laughs, but is well known for not enjoying jokes at his expense. It creates tension in the room. Clinton was even worse, oddly enough, W and Al Gore are the easiest.ReplyCancel

Straight from Columbus: Peckham draws in
Robin Brownlee
March 07 2008 11:13AM
Fans will get a look at the future tonight when defenceman Theo Peckham draws into the line-up against the Columbus Blue Jackets at Nationwide Arena. With Mathieu Roy hurting after getting steamrolled by Nashville's Jordin Tootoo yet again, Peckham was recalled from Springfield of the AHL and it was anticipated he might spell off Roy.
I just spoke with Rod Phillips in Columbus and he confirmed that will indeed be the case—the 20-year-old banger will make his NHL debut tonight. Who Peckham will play with isn't certain because the Oilers didn't run defensive pairings at their pre-game skate this morning. If Peckham draws straight in for Roy, it would be alongside Denis Grebeshkov, leaving Steve Staios with Joni Pitkanen and Tom Gilbert paired with Matt Greene. Again, though, these pairings will remain speculation until coach Craig MacTavish rolls out his line-up tonight.
While I don't expect too much from Peckham in terms of ice time or performance—debuts by rookies are seldom memorable—it'll be interesting to get a glimpse of the six-foot-two, 225-pound rearguard. Peckham, drafted 75th overall from Owen Sound of the OHL in 2006, is big and raw and he needs a lot of rough edges knocked off, but he brings unquestionable grit and toughness—something the Oilers lack. He piled up 618 penalty minutes in 181 career games with Owen Sound and he got the call in Springfield with 6-4-10 and 114 PIM in 42 games with the Falcons. Peckham's a work-in-progress for sure, and that progress begins tonight.
GAME DAY... Marc Pouliot will also draw in tonight in place of Geoff Sanderson, who has a cranky back and is coming off a minus-3 night in a 5-1 loss to Nashville... Pouliot will centre the fourth line between Curtis Glencross and Zack Stortini... With Pouliot at pivot with Glencross and Stortini, Kyle Brodziak will move up to the third line and play left wing with Marty Reasoner and Fernando Pisani.
—Listen to Robin Brownlee every Thursday from 4 to 5 p.m. on Total Sports with Bob Stauffer on Team 1260 .
March 07 2008, 02:25PM
You remember the spring of 2005 right Robin? What were you about 125 years old at that time?
March 07 2008, 11:31AM
I'd rather keep Brodziak with Stortini and Glecross, but lets see if Pouliot is ready to make a difference this time.
I'm really looking forward to Peckham playing. Hopefully he'll throw a few big hits and make a lasting impression.
That is awesome that you guys are getting news like this. You are the first to report it!
Umm...your intro on the front page says the Oil go out a playoff push in the "spring of 2005" but so ya know, it was 2006...geez, for oilernation, you'd think you'd remember that!
March 07 2008, 12:22PM
Matt - good call. That was an earlier contest "find an error to win a prize"
March 07 2008, 12:23PM
The other guy is lying Matt. It was really a bet amongst us to see if anyone would notice. And now I have won
March 07 2008, 01:04PM
Update: After some arguing, this has been fixed and the bet paid. It took 6 weeks for someone to post about it for the record!

By PATSY STODDARDEditor
Mike McCandless, the economic development director for Emery County spoke in a session of the Castle Valley Economic Development Summit recently. His was the first in a three part session on starting your own business. McCandless first asked the audience, "Why do people start a business,?" Some answers included: to make money, be your own boss, give family a job, do something you enjoy, work the hours you want, increase status, etc.
One business owner in the audience spoke up and said, "You're not the boss, the customer is the boss."
McCandless said you can expect to work 50 percent more at things that do not generate income. Your customers will own you. They will dictate your hours. The customer drives the ship. You will need a strong marriage to survive starting a business. The decision must be a family decision, because the whole family will be involved.
McCandless said there is a mind set in Emery County where people will spend $200 to make sure you don't make a $100. This is something that needs to be changed because when one business succeeds then the whole area will benefit from that. But, people are jealous, it is a reality for county business owners.
One way to get around that is to get people involved in an organization that gets the naysayers involved. McCandless mentioned the BEAR program which helps start new businesses and works with businesses on retention and business expansion. He said economic development organizations are the fertilizer, not the seed.
You will need to be passionate about your idea for a business. You must love your idea. If you have this passion, you can be taught to be an entrepreneur and learn about business. "We need to grow the entrepreneurial spirit and get people excited," said McCandless, "You need to learn from others and steal good ideas. True entrepreneurs enjoy seeing others succeed. Jealousy will lead to failure. Starting a business is a risk, both financial and emotionally. True entrepreneurs accept risk. What is your tolerance for risk? financial, emotional and employment. You may have to risk all that to get over the hump. Some of the people who come into our office, don't want any of the risk."
Some of the top concerns of small business owners include: health insurance, liability insurance, workers comp, taxes, regulations, property taxes, state taxes, cost of utilities, cash flow, locating quality employees, etc. "Become aware of all the issues and then if you still want to start a business you must complete a comprehensive business plan. Do a complete financial statement with all items considered, taxes, credit, assets. Evaluate your financial resources. Usually you will need 15 to 25 percent down and some in-kind might be allowed. Get your financial items in line first and be honest. Be adequately capitalized to begin a project. Make forecasts for three-five years in the future. Make a realistic list of everything you will need to start that business. Identify competitive threats," said McCandless.
McCandless went over a sales leakage survey that is done for Carbon and Emery counties. Sales leakage is a comparison of actual sales versus anticipated sales. These numbers can help to identify potential opportunities or lack of opportunities. Numbers included: general merchandise-177 percent, groceries-129 percent, motor vehicles, 141 percent, auto repair-280 percent and hotel occupancy 169 percent. McCandless said when you are considering a business do not cut the pie again. Don't open a pizza parlor if there are already 10 pizza parlors on Main Street. Be cautious about simply copying a business in the community that is succeeding. Such a business is not generating new income, but cutting a limited pie. Such a business might result in both businesses failing.
Some percentages for other areas included: building and garden 57 percent, apparel 10 percent, furniture 37 percent, personal services, 76 percent, business services, 54 percent, appliances 160 percent. These percentages reflect that 90 percent of the clothing is purchased out of the counties, 63 percent of the furniture is purchased elsewhere.
When McCandless was asked why the percentage of furniture is bought elsewhere he said there is a perception that you can't get certain items here and that you pay more if you buy it locally. McCandless said this is a common misconception as most furniture stores in the area, can order anything you want and have it here second day. "You might pay a little more, but the convenience of staying home to shop counts for something," said McCandless. He also mentioned that local beauty shops are on overload and that is a business opportunity. He also said not to overlook the obvious in this natural resources based economy. Support businesses for repair and transportation. Mechanics are in demand. With the local motels being filled with workers in the energy industry, there has been a shortage of available rooms for tourists to the area. Entrepreneurs can step up and fill a need. Tourism can make a significant impact on the economy. When the tourists discover the ATV trails in our system, will the support businesses be here to support the influx. Eight hundred people will be here next year to do the overhaul at Hunter Plant and only 10 percent of those will be local. Where will the others stay?
Truck drivers, diesel mechanics and other mechanics are in short supply. Speciality services and internet businesses are also good opportunities. Health care businesses and consulting are other opportunities.
One internet business in Emery County is the Service Discount Store. He buys items from storage units and other places and sells the best items on ebay and the leftovers are sold on Fridays at the Castle Dale location. Other opportunities include: health care support businesses, replacement services, payroll, engineering, customer service, delivery service, advertising, graphic design, surveyors, etc. The San Rafael Research has gone from 0-76 employees in a few months.
Someone wondered why there aren't more eating establishments in the area. McCandless said one problem seen has been the lack of adequate capitalization. "The time is ripe for a motel in our area. It takes huge capital. A large hotel 90 rooms is $3-4 million and a 30 room runs about $1.8 million. The capital is challenging. You need to come up with 10-25 percent down and that's a large sum of money. That's where revolving loan funds and people with capital come in. The occupancy rate these last six months has been 90 percent for the motels in the western end of the county. The natural resources in the foreseeable future will still be stable and expanding. Carbon/Emery counties have had a high lease rate lately.
The opportunities exist if the entrepreneurs are willing to take the risk to capitalize on the opportunities.

SLCL Foundation Presents Acclaimed Novelist Ron Currie, Jr.
Fri, 01/18/2013 (All day)
The St. Louis County Library Foundation is pleased to present novelist Ron Currie, Jr. for a discussion and signing of his latest novel "Flimsy Little Plastic Miracles" on Tuesday, February 19, at 7:00 p.m. at Library Headquarters, 1640 S. Lindbergh Blvd.
The program is free and open to the public. Books will be available for purchase at the event from Left Bank Books.
In this tour de force of imagination, Ron Currie asks why literal veracity means more to us than deeper truths, creating yet again a genre-bending novel that will at once dazzle, move and provoke.
The protagonist of Ron Currie, Jr.'s new novel has a problem--or rather, several of them. He's a writer whose latest book was destroyed in a fire. He's mourning the death of his father, and has been in love with the same woman since grade school, a woman whose beauty and allure is matched only by her talent for eluding him. Worst of all, he's not even his own man, but rather an amalgam of fact and fiction from Ron Currie's own life. When Currie the character exiles himself to a small Caribbean island to write a new book about the woman he loves, he eventually decides to fake his death, which turns out to be the best career move he's ever made. But fame and fortune come with a price, and Currie learns that in a time of twenty-four-hour news cycles, reality TV, and celebrity Twitter feeds, the one thing the world will not forgive is having been told a deeply satisfying lie.
What kind of distinction could, or should, be drawn between Currie the author and Currie the character? Or between the book you hold in your hands and the novel embedded in it? Whatever the answers, Currie, an inventive writer always eager to test the boundaries of storytelling in provocative ways, has essential things to impart along the way about heartbreak, reality, grief, deceit, human frailty, and blinding love.
Ron Currie, Jr. is the author of "Everything Matters," a New York Times bestseller, and "God is Dead." His short fiction has won prizes in The World's Best Short Story competition and has been shortlisted for the Fish International Short Story award and Swink magazine's Emerging Writer Award.
Program sites are accessible. Upon two weeks notice, accommodations will be made for persons with disabilities. Contact St. Louis County Library by phone 314-994-3300 or visit

"Time and again, when the President has had the chance to lead the way on American energy production -- whether that be the approval of the Keystone XL pipeline or opening up more federal lands for energy development – he's chosen his environmentalist allies over the American people," Hatch said. "Low energy costs are important to ensure that good manufacturing jobs stay in America, and make no mistake, today's announcement means higher energy costs for Utahns and Americans across the country. The President may feel this 'War on Coal' plays well with his political base, but in reality it's the American people who will suffer the effects of these back-door energy taxes through higher energy costs."
Almost half of the electricity produced in the U.S. currently comes from coal-fired power plants. The rule announced today will require new coal-fired power plants to use carbon capture and sequestration technology to limit carbon emissions – technology which is very limited and will not work in many parts of the country. If power plants fail to meet the strict emission caps set by the Obama Administration they will be required to pay a fine, which will undoubtedly be passed along to consumers.

HUNTINGTON-Phyllis Marjorie Rickerd Jensen, age 65, loving wife, mother, grandmother and friend passed away Jan. 28, 2003 in Provo, surrounded by her loving family. She was born Feb. 16, 1937 in Toledo, Ohio to Willard D. and Verna Mahaffey Rickerd. She married Vernon J. Jensen Nov. 27, 1954 in Toledo, Ohio, later solemnized in the Manti LDS Temple.
As an active member of the LDS Church, she held numerous callings. As an accomplished oil painter, she was well known, being admitted in the Who's Who in Washington D.C. She also had a love for music, whether teaching or playing the piano. She loved sharing her talents with her family and community. She had a deep and abiding love for her family, by whom she will be dearly missed.
She is survived by her husband Vernon of Huntington and children; Debra Lynn and Warren Oviatt of Huntington; Robert and Cheryl Jensen of Gunnison; Thomas and Christine Jensen of Huntington; Janet and Larry Devereaux of Elmo; and Gordon and Shauna Jensen of Salt Lake City; 18 grandchildren and five great-grandchildren. Also survived by brother John Rickerd and sister Gerry Smith. Preceded in death by parents and sister Ilene Moon.
Funeral services were held Sat. Feb. 1, 2003 at the Huntington Stake Center. Burial was in the Huntington Cemetery under the direction of Fausett Mortuary.
Our ever so loved, precious mother, grandmother, great-grandmother and friend, Edna Jean Millius Ganino Jensen, left this physical world Feb. 2, 2003 after a courageous struggle with cancer. She departed this world with her loving companion Bill Durham asleep at her side. Though Jean waited until all her children had assembled at her home she did not pass from this world until she knew they were all in slumber and at peace with her passing.
Mom was born Oct. 19, 1931, in Sharon, Conn. to Milliard Millius and Margaret Coons Millius. At a very young age, her parents divorced and she was forced to live in an orphanage in upstate New York while attending Catholic school where nuns helped raise her. She never talked about her experiences growing up, nor ever complained. She married Rosario A. Ganino Aug. 13, 1949 and they had eight children together. Russ passed away April 20, 1968. She then married Darwin O. Jensen Dec. 31, 1969. Darwin passed away March 30, 1980. Mom met Bill B. Durham approximately a year later and they remained close companions until her last moments.
Mom was a very talented quilt maker and enjoyed cooking, baking and canning. A gypsy at heart she loved to travel and would often take off on the spur of a moment to visit her children, friends or family members in another state. She loved camping, gardening, rock hunting, yard sales, auctions and gambling. But most of all she loved her children, grandchildren and her animals.
Mom loved her family and was a dedicated and protective mother until her moment of death. She gave of herself tirelessly throughout her life and often sacrificed her own needs for those in her family. She showered her love and cheer everywhere she traveled and taught us all to be happy and live each day with hope, cheer and courage. She met death with the same dignity and courage that she faced life.
Mother looked forward to reuniting with those family members who proceeded her in death: her infant son, Bruno Ganino, who passed away shortly after his birth; the father of her seven children, Rosario A. Ganino; her second husband and dear friend, Darwin O. Jensen; her beloved brother and sister, Clarence (Buddy) Melvin and Alice (Dickie) Millius.
Those who have survived to celebrate her life are her devoted and loving companion, Bill Durham; seven children, Bruno A. Ganino (Kathy) of Huntington; Rusty A. (Minnie)Ganino of Green River, Wyo.; Tony C. Ganino of Price; Missy (Joe) Ganino of Moab; Joey M. (Blondie) Ganino of Price; Danny E. (Eileen) Ganino of Divide Co.; and Susan (Brent) Tuttle of Orangeville; as well as 19 grandchildren and 10 great-grandchildren; and dear friend of over 50 years, Clair Morris of Stamford, Conn.
As Jean's children, we would like to offer her heartfelt appreciation to Bill Durham for his dedicated love and care of our Mom. We would also like to thank Melissa from Hospice and Dr. Gagon for their help and support in our time of need.
Mom requested she be cremated and that there be no funeral, so to abide by her wishes the family has chosen to dedicate Tues., Feb. 4, as a day to celebrate her life. In lieu of flowers please make a donation to the Rocky Mountain Hospice of Price. Under the direction of Mitchell Funeral Home.
We will miss you Mom, but know you are now with God. On wings of life her spirit soars!
SUNNYSIDE - Our precious mother, Lillie Mary Garcia Tollis, was welcomed into the loving arms of God and her beloved husband on Thursday, Jan. 30, 2003.
She was born July 17, 1919 in Raton, N.M. to Cash and Betty Gallegos Garcia. Married Arnando R. (Dugie) Tollis Sr., Oct. 6, 1934 in Lexington, Neb. He died July 26, 2002.
She leaves behind a family of friends and loved ones who will forever be indebted to her for the unconditional love and generosity she so graciously gave to everyone. Mom touched the lives of so many with her kindness, generosity, love and forgiveness. Although from humble beginnings, she left this world a rich woman. Her wealth came not from material possessions, but in the knowledge that her love lives on in the hearts of her beloved family.
We will miss her Sunday Italian dinners, her phone calls, her long good-byes, her sense of humor, her beautiful face, her unending "I love you's, her ability to catch a "fly", her special little gifts, her wisdom, her touch, her everything. Mom, we love you so.
Mom suffered through much pain in her remaining years. When she found herself complaining, she would become upset with herself and would immediately rattle off a list of why she was so lucky. On the top of the list was her family. Mom, we want you to know that letting go is so hard to do. We can't describe our love for you and the void we will forever feel. Vaja con dios, our angel.
Mom's family would like to thank Dr. Glenn Etzell, the staff at Castleview Hospital and Parkdale Care Center for the excellent care given to our mother in her last days. We are indebted to a community of friends and neighbors who through the years looked in on Mom and somehow made her days less lonely. You are true messengers of God.

|Meeting Description:
|The past decade has seen the emergence of a new scientific field that studies how intelligent biological and artificial systems develop sensorimotor, cognitive and social abilities, over extended periods of time, through dynamic interactions with their physical and social environments. This field lies at the intersection of a number of scientific and engineering disciplines including Neuroscience, Developmental Psychology, Developmental Linguistics, Cognitive Science, Computational Neuroscience, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, and Robotics. Various terms have been associated with this new field such as Autonomous Mental Development, Epigenetic Robotics, Developmental Robotics, etc., and several scientific meetings have been established. The two most prominent conference series of this field, the International Conference on Development and Learning (ICDL) and the International Conference on Epigenetic Robotics (EpiRob), are now joining forces and invite discussions for a joint meeting in 2013, to explore and extend the interdisciplinary boundaries of this field.

Congressman Jim Matheson paid a visit to Emery County during one of his favorite times of the year-lamb fry time in the county. Matheson said he enjoys coming to the county as he met with businessmen in the area. Matheson said he is always interested in bringing input from the people back to Washington. He was impressed with the number of people attending the meeting with it being held on a Saturday afternoon. Matheson encouraged the audience to keep the dialogue going and contact his office with questions and concerns.
Matheson identified economic development as his primary goal and stressed its importance for the state. One other area of importance to Matheson is roads. He said the highway bill designating $7.5 million for the completion of the South Moore cut-off road was recently signed. Another issue he helped solve was designating SR-6 as a high priority corridor which qualified the road for federal funding.
Matheson said he is an advocate for people and helping to look for ideas and ways to make people succeed. "I believe in nurturing existing businesses also. Economic development is not a partisan issue and we need to work together to make it work."
Pam Juliano is Matheson's representative in the Emery/Carbon county area, she had invited many small business owners to share their story with Matheson. Randy Jones from Randy's repair shared his story of his farm equipment repair business. He started in 1977 and they buy, sell and trade equipment new and used. He said they try to be competitive and invite people to check out their prices. Randy's Repair will take the refurbished equipment to the field and set it up and they even warranty their used equipment. Currently they have outgrown their present location and are looking to expand. They would like to find funding to help them move to a better location. Jones said one of his biggest concerns is in being able to provide his employees with health insurance. He said the price of health insurance is too much for a small business like his.
Matheson said he is always asked about health insurance and he isn't sure what's going to happen with health care but things can't go on as they are with escalating costs. "We just can't sustain it," said Matheson.
Mike McCandless, Emery County Economic Development Director said they need to find ways for private investors with venture capital to invest in Emery County and bring that venture capital money to Emery County.
Delena Fish from Workforce Services said one frustration they have in funding sources is the income criteria and other requisites for people to qualify for programs that would be beneficial. She would like to see a loosening of such regulations. Fish gave the comparison in the energy field that in the next 10 years will be turning over their entire workforce and a new workforce needs to be trained and able to step into those positions that will be vacated when the retirements occur. In some coal mines the average age is 46-48 years of age or older.
Karl Kraync told of the loan program for small business in the area, SUSABEF, and the businesses in the four county area that came into existence through this loan program and how with 92 businesses and 3.5 years later 67 percent of those 92 businesses are still in business and expanding. Kraync said they help businesses with a small grant to bring a business up off the ground at a time when they need it.
One of those businesses that benefitted from those funds was the Star Theatre. Janice Mounteer from the theatre told of the new expansion project they are planning for a Fun Center and Malt Shoppe. She said they are interested in giving back to the community and creating a place for families to gather.
Mounteer also said they attended one of the NexLevel trainings and it was very helpful. She said it would be good if they had a follow-up course to that class for further instruction. "We put our heart and soul into our business," said Mounteer.
Kevin Casey from DBT America said they supply parts to underground mining and they have put a significant investment into Huntington. They have found a good workforce here and the younger workforce wants to be able to stay in the area. Casey said 90 percent of his employees grew up in the Carbon/Emery area.
Sharon Earl from Earl's Furniture and Appliance said she recently returned from a furniture show in Las Vegas and she was concerned about the lack of furniture manufacturing in America. She is finding the quality isn't as good with the furniture made overseas, but the manufactures have found they can ship the materials overseas to have the product put together and then shipped back cheaper than it can be manufactured in America. These foreign manufacturing jobs take jobs away from Americans.
Matheson said jobs going overseas is a real problem for the American workforce.
Dale Fillmore from DEO Services explained what they do in their business. They are a high tech machine shop which develops and manufactures products. They have developed a brake for use underground on the man trips which lasts longer than traditional brakes and meets all MSHA regulations.
Fillmore said any help in moving the MSHA process along for approval of products for use underground would be helpful. It has taken two years to get an engine approved.
The Fillmores have room to grow and hope someday to expand their business. They expressed a need for financing for medium sized companies and interim help so the company can expand.
Mike Dunwoody said he recently bought an old motel in Green River that he wishes to use for an incubator site.
Currently it is housing a hair shop and a video game room and he's hoping other businesses will locate there.
He sees the tourism in Green River as too cyclic with people working very hard during the tourist season and having too little to do during the off season.
Deb Dull from Utah Power said the addition of a scrubber at Huntington Plant number two will bring money into the local economy and future overhauls at the plants will add to the economy.
Kent Wilson from BKs Stop-n-Shop said he just doesn't have the buying power that the large companies do and it's really hard to compete with the Wal-Marts.
Commissioner Gary Kofford made a presentation to Rep. Matheson.
He thanked him for his work on getting the funding for the Moore cut-off road.
He gave him a book about Emery County and presented him with a gift made by Jay Frandsen of Castle Dale.
The gift included hand chipped flint knife blades and pictures from Native American artwork.

Word of the Great Crimlo aka GOD
"Word of the Great Crimlo aka GOD" Dude, thats just LAME! XD Heck, I dont beleave in god, but whatever. You really dont have a right to call yourself that cause your being stuck up.
Anyway, dude, anough with all the cursing. Act like an adult and cut it out. Not everyone on the forums IS of age to read your crap.
well... I understood this:
Sasuke entered inside Manda and used a space jutsu(maybe ms o.o), but he wasn't fast enough so they were damaged by the explosion, manda died and sasuke is bad '-'... How the water guy knew that he had to "summon" sasuke and manda i don't have any idea...( i know that it has something to due with the emblem that disapeared, but...).
The guy with piercings and weird eye is really akatsuki's leader, but it seens that he respects a lot this "informant"(i guess its tobi... but... who knows?) Anyway, i think that he told itachi that sasuke was dead, so he, the leader, could handle with kyuubi and naruto by himself... But why is that, i dunno =P

Predict Away!
Well, in my oppinion this is what went down:
Obviously before hand, Sasuke had talked to Suigetsu about a technique that he'd used in times of emergencies - whenever he was in a death situation. Also, he would have told Suigetsu how to bring him back.
This was put in place when the explosion occured. Sasuke summoned Manda, using the Sharingan's genjutsu strength to force Manda against his will - which is shown by when Manda says, "With those eyes...I was controlled" right before he dies (pg12 for references).
Afterwards, he either used a time-space jutsu to take him away from the area or he released Manda - I'm guessing it's the first one since he was already using his Sharingan anyway (which may shows hints to the use of Mangekyou Sharingan - or just an advanced Sharingan jutsu).
Already knowing that Sasuke was in that area at the time, Suigetsu went to the nearby area and then spilled Orochimaru's blood on the centre (since Orochimaru had the contract with the snake - although it could have been Sasukes. It was definitely blood) and then summoned Manda in order to see whether or not Sasuke was there (pg10 reference).
Obviously as Sasuke told us, before he was able to use his jutsu, they got caught up in the explosion and both of them received damaged - leading in Manda's death (pg12-14 ref).
Now for the Akatsuki part. With so much control over Akatsuki's leader - whose now been named as "Pein" - I believe this new guy that we're learning about is someone whose been linked with the organisation, whose interested in Kyuubi. Now whether or not you're about to get ideas with it being linked to Uchiha Madarin or Yondaime, it doesn't matter. Personally, I believe both of them are dead - Uchiha Madarin for sure. He lives thousands of years ago, no way he can be alive. Yondaime may have done something dodgy but I doubt it, he'd have been found out by now by people who were watching after they put 2 and 2 together.
What I can say though is that we're about to see some damn good action, Akatsuki's leader with a mysterious lady about to personally visit Naruto for the fight of his life, what can be more interesting?
Sasuke is not going to die by the insane am going to blow myself up Deidara you know why cause hes an Uchiha and Uchiha's are winners only people that can kill are other Uchiha's that being Itachi closed and shut case as for the fight with Sasuke and Deidara well... there is not fight Deidara killed himself so Sasuke saves his self my by using the Mangekyo Sharingan that has the same ability's as Hatake Kakashi mean while Tobi sees to huge Explosion leaves to go tell the leader that Deidara has failed to kill Sasuke in hes mission end of chapter
Well, i think Naruto and his group quickly goes to the explosion site but no one is there.
Tobi's not dead, we have not seen him fight yet. The next chapter will either be dealing with sasuke's group. Or it will be the akatsuki finding out that tobi and sasuke are not dead.
The nice blue hair lady and Pein are Naruto's mom and dad and they will meet and have ice cream party with all the Akatsuki members

The Netherlands 1853 – France 1890
Imperial Crown fritillaries in a copper vase
[Fritillaires couronne impériale dans un vase de cuivre] 1887
oil on canvas
canvas 73.0 (h) x 60.5 (w) cm
Musée d'Orsay, Paris , Bequest of Count Isaac de Camondo 1911
© RMN (Musée d'Orsay) / Hervé Lewandowski
From March 1886 to February 1888 van Gogh lived with his brother Theo in Paris. Therefore almost none of their usually voluminous correspondence exists for this time. This period in Paris was Vincent's first encounter with Impressionism, and the resultant brightening of his palette can be seen, especially in the flower studies he painted. Theo wrote to their mother in July 1886:
He is mainly painting flowers—with the object to put a more lively colour into his next set of pictures. He is also more cheerful than in the past and people here like him. To give you proof: hardly a day passes that he is not asked to go to the studios of well-known painters, or they come to see him. He also has acquaintances who give him a bunch of flowers every week which may serve him as models.1
Both Monet and Gustave Caillebotte painted flowers, and Theo's position as a dealer with Boussod, Valadon & Co. (successors to Goupil & Co.) may have allowed Vincent to see these works. It was, nonetheless, the Marseilles painter Adolphe Monticelli who influenced Vincent most, especially in his vigorous impasto and rich colours:
In 1886 van Gogh discovered some of Monticelli's mature works in the Galerie Delarebeyrette, Paris. He began to imitate Monticelli's flower-pieces, for example in Hollyhocks in a one-eared vase2and later bought six paintings for his personal collection ... In 1890 van Gogh and his brother Theo funded the publication of the first book about Monticelli … Most of Monticelli's experimental and stylistic innovations have been ascribed to van Gogh, although van Gogh readily acknowledged his indebtedness to the Marseilles painter.3
The spectacular blooms of the Imperial Crown or Kaiser's Crown fritillary can be seen in European gardens in late April and May. Here they seem to substitute for the sun's flames in front of a starry sky, the orange and gold petals whirling like a corona above the shining copper bowl. Striated green crowns are repeated in the abundant leaves and stems of the flowers, then dissolve into the neutral strokes of the brown table mat. Sparkling lights of tiny white spots glisten on the profoundly blue ground. Around September 1886 Vincent wrote in English to his acquaintance, the painter Horace M. Livens, explaining his strategy. He had no money to pay models, therefore:
I have made a series of colour studies in painting, simply flowers, red poppies, blue corn flowers and myosotys, white and rose roses, yellow chrysanthemums—seeking oppositions of blue with orange, red and green, yellow and violet seeking les tons rompus et neutres [worn-out and neutral tones] to harmonize brutal extremes. Trying to render intense colour and not a grey harmony … So as we said at the time: in colour seeking life the true drawing is modelling with colour.4

Skip to comments.Action figures for 'Django Unchained' draw protest (Tarantino selling slaves)
Posted on 01/08/2013 4:58:37 PM PST by Libloather
Najee Ali, director of the advocacy group Project Islamic Hope, plans a news conference Tuesday with other Los Angeles black community leaders calling for the removal of the toys from the market.
Ali called the action figures "a slap in the face of our ancestors."
"We were outraged," said Ali, upon learning of the figures. "We feel that it trivializes the horrors of slavery and what African Americans experienced."
The action figures are collectibles recommended for people older than 17.
(Excerpt) Read more at news.yahoo.com ...
LOL! Great question.
These black "leaders" need a trip to Mecca so they can rediscover that problematic truth that Malcom X discovered (and led to his death).
BTW I'm watching Iron Man II. So far so good.
Why would a real adult want to buy this crap?
Has anyone seen it?
My niece went (she is not a kid) and said it was quite good.
But she saw it on base (for $1.00), so maybe that's all its worth.
...wow, kind of like Nazis concerned about anti-Semitism.
well, only Nixon could go to China as they say.
They're collectibles. They'll be worth big money down the road.
When the same Quentin Tarantino used 'Inglourious Basterds' to trivialize the Jewish experience in Nazi occupied Europe nobody said a word.
The malady is so ubiquitous and to some, so irritating, Star Trek references are forbidden in The National Review.
Maybe if Ali got all worked up over CURRENT Islamic countries that allow and condone slavery I might care what he thinks....
Does it involved Islamic Slavery?
I try to stay as far away from Malcolm X as I possibly can.
I'm sure that as soon as Tarantino makes the appropriate donation to the appropriate group the toys will be A-OK.
Just going from memory on what Alveda King said to Glenn Beck.
She basically said that "Calvin" discovered how twisted NOI beliefs were and that members were mindless robots. She said his hatred of whites had begun to falter because he had seen real slavery and racism in the mideast. Louis Farrakahn all but admitted that the Nation Of Islam killed Malcom X because he would have destroyed the organization.
Its doubtful that he was ever going to be a conservative but if he had lived, I doubt the NOI would be the organization it is today.
I guess reality bites hard even the most vehement of leftists.
Maybe the profits could go to a fund to buy 40 acres and a mule?
re "Why are 9 out of 10 conservative intellectuals Star Trek geeks?" EASY:
"Star Trek" was a wonderfully constructed world of Sci-Fi that incorporated the best of American values, was well written, featured good actors/actresses, and was entertaining. EXAMPLES:
* Self-Sacrifice: "The Doomsday Machine", William Windom, a WW2 combat vet, as Commodore Dekker. Leonard Nimoy as Spock in "The Wrath of Khan".
* Patriotism: "The Omega glory", esp. the scene in which Kirk begins to recite the "forbidden words" that were those in the introduction to the Declaration of Independence, and then the unravelling of an old American flag.
The most beautiful sight I have ever seen of the American flag was when two U.S. riverine patrol boats (Mekong Delta, So. Vietnam) passed under a bridge I was on, with the flags fully flying.
I guess the most beautiful sight my father-in-law saw (and has a picture of), was a large American flag flying at the top of Mt. Suribachi on Iwo Jima. His Army Signal Corps Signal Assault Company had taken very heavy casualties during the fighting and were taken back down the mountain to get patched up.
* Humor: Something the Left doesn't have much of. "The Trouble With Tribbles" series and "Harry, Mudd" (Harcourt!) says it all.
* Nice looking women: Nichele Nichols, Sherry Jackson, Julie Newmar, Terri Gar, etc. from the TV series plus any from ST; Deep Space 9 (Farrell, DeBoer, Visitor, Materson), Seven of Nine (Jery Ryan, beautiful in person with very little makeup), Kate Mulgrew, Marina Sirtis, etc. (You should see my autographed photo collection. Eat your hearts out, peasants).
* Technology: "Phasers"; "Communicators", Time travel, "transporters", etc. Great imagination in creating things that didn't exist, some of which were created later.
* Humanity: The sacrifices of the Enterprise and other Federation ships in helping to protect weaker peoples is typically American, or else the French would have been speaking German ever since 1944 (i.e. a failure of the D-Day invasion).
* Exploration: An unique human trait is that of exploring the unknown, be it in space, on earth or in the seas. "To Go Where No Man Has Gone Before", "City on the Edge of Forever", and " Out there, Mr. Sulu" quote.
Star Trek was not just a show or movie, it was the creative imagination of Gene Roddenberry and company who took us "where no man has gone before" in one helluva ride into space.
Trekkies at FR know exactly what I'm talking about. We could go to new worlds and new times without ever having to leave our chairs, and enjoy the trip both visually and in our minds.
Freeper Trekkies rule!
"Live Long and Prosper"
Makes you wonder about people, it is obvious this clown Ali is just plain Stupid and or EVIL, SLAVERY exists in 40% of the WORLD TODAY, Egypt just made Slavery a part of their new constitution, Madagascar still holds SLAVE AUCTIONS every Month, as well as most of the African Continent, All of the Islamic World practices SLAVERY. I doubt they will ever say a Word about their people holding SLAVES TODAY.
Made in China. By actual Slaves.
And they're selling Massa, too!
Outrage over action figures? Really?
"Outrage over action figures? Really?"
I don't want them sold, either; they are the right size for black malcontents to string up around their workplace and cry "wolf".
Love your tag line.
about a year ago one studio exec said, "We no longer are in the movie biz, we are in the toy business. We amke more profit form action figures than films." don't know if that is correct but it sure looks like it.
Want a taste of slavery? Try not paying your taxes.
Does the Leo figure come with his own whip.
Which was? Asking politely. The "truths" in his realms were...well...but I probably agree with you.
saw it last weekend...
it needs to be seen on the big screen..
it is a typical quentin tarantino movie, well done, but a bit on the long side..
my opinion, it is worth the price of admission..

Beyond the Courtroom: Alternatives for Resolving Press Disputes

University of Iowa - School of Journalism
BEYOND THE COURTROOM: ALTERNATIVES FOR RESOLVING PRESS DISPUTES, Richard T. Kaplar, ed., Media Institute, 1991
This chapter describes an experimental alternative program for resolving media libel disputes out of court and explains why the program was created. The chapter first discusses the findings of an empirical study of the libel litigation system. That study found that the primary objectives of plaintiffs who sue for libel are not met by the current system and that the media incur large financial and other costs in defending libel suits. The experimental, voluntary, alternative program that was created in response to these findings is described, along with the potential benefits that it could offer both parties relative to the current system and to other media libel litigation reform proposals.
Keywords: libel, alternative dispute resolution, litigation

Saracens went top of the Premiership standings thanks to a 44-12 bonus-point win over Gloucester at Allianz Park on Sunday.
Saracens went top of the Premiership standings thanks to a bonus-point 44-12 win over Gloucester at Allianz Park on Sunday.
The result became somewhat of a foregone conclusion after just 73 seconds, when Gloucester prop Nick Wood was shown a red card for stamping on the face of Sarries flank Jacques Burger.
The visitors put up a brave fight nevertheless and made the Saracens work very hard for their four-try bonus point.
In fact, the Cherry and Whites went into the interval 12-10 ahead thanks to four Freddie Burns' penalties. But the home side's numerical advantage eventually told as Sarries finished with five unanswered tries.
A mistake-ridden Sarries were poor in the first period with Joel Tomkins' try and Owen Farrell's three-pointer all they had to show for their efforts.
But with the away team tiring, the hosts pulled away after the break as further touchdowns from David Strettle (twice), Schalk Brits and Billy Vunipola, aided by the boot of Farrell, secured a comfortable win.
Nigel Davies' men showed plenty of solidarity to respond well to their initial setback as Burns' boot took them into the lead. Although Tomkins gained the advantage for Saracens with a fine try, the Gloucester fly-half reduced the arrears to one point after 28 minutes.
The respective fly-halves then traded three-pointers before Burns impressively restored their advantage just before the interval.
But the visitors couldn't maintain the intensity in the second half and a Farrell effort off the tee immediately put Sarries back ahead.
An excellent backs' move ended in Strettle touching down in the left corner before the Sarries pivot added another three-pointer.
Sione Kalamafoni was then sin-binned and it was no surprise to see a powerful driving maul resulting in Brits going over as the lead was extended further.
Mark McCall's side pressed for the bonus-point and it eventually came through the gargantuan Vunipola.
The last word also went to Saracens as Strettle hacked through and re-gathered to make it 10 points out of a possible 10.
The scorers:
For Saracens:
Tries: Tomkins, Strettle 2, Brits, B. Vunipola
Cons: Farrell 4, Spencer
Pens: Farrell 3
For Gloucester:
Pens: Burns 4
Yellow card: Kalamafoni (56 mins – pulling maul down)
Red card: Nick Wood (1 min – stamping)
Saracens: 15 Chris Wyles, 14 Chris Ashton, 13 Joel Tomkins, 12 Duncan Taylor, 11 David Strettle; 10 Owen Farrell, 9 Richard Wigglesworth, 8 Ernst Joubert, 7 Jacques Burger, 6 Billy Vunipola, 5 Alistair Hargreaves, 4 Steve Borthwick (c), 3 Matt Stevens, 2 Jamie George, 1 Rhys Gill.
Replacements: 16 Schalk Brits, 17 Mako Vunipola, 18 James Johnston, 19 Mouritz Botha, 20 Jackson Wray, 21 Ben Spencer, 22 Nils Mordt, 23 Ben Ransom.
Gloucester: 15 Rob Cook, 14 Charlie Sharples, 13 Henry Trinder, 12 Billy Twelvetrees, 11 James Simpson-Daniel, 10 Freddie Burns, 9 Tavis Knoyle, 8 Sione Kalamafoni, 7 Akapusi Qera, 6 Matt Kvesic, 5 Lua Lokotui, 4 Tom Savage (capt), 3 Rupert Harden, 2 Darren Dawidiuk, 1 Nick Wood.

Comfy and cute
"I bought these shoes in the brown/camel color in an 8.5, although I normally wear a size 9. That's why I rated them to fit perfect lengthwise, because i could certainly use that extra half size ;) Though they are nicely designed, I very much disliked the way they are made. The leather looks to be of very poor quality, and the glue in the front of the shoe is too obvious, that is why I gave them 4 stars. Other than that they are comfortable and cute."

Acts of the Apostles 4:1-10
Prokeimenon. Grave Mode.
Psalm 63.11,1
The righteous shall rejoice in the Lord.
Verse: Oh God, hear my cry.
IN THOSE DAYS, while the apostles were speaking to the people, the priests and the captain of the temple and the Sadducees came upon them, annoyed because they were teaching the people and proclaiming in Jesus the resurrection from the dead. And they arrested them and put them in custody until the morrow, for it was already evening. But many of those who heard the word believed; and the number of the men came to about five thousand.
On the morrow their rulers and elders and scribes were gathered together in Jerusalem, with Annas the high priest and Caiaphas and John and Alexander, and all who were of the high-priestly family. And when they had set them in the midst, they inquired, "By what power or by what name did you do this?" Then Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit, said to them, "Rulers of the people and elders, if we are being examined today concerning a good deed done to a cripple, by what means this man has been healed, be it known to you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified, whom God raised from the dead, by him this man is standing before you well."

I would not recommend if you are going to be doing a lot of walking or dancing. However, if you want a nice pair of heels for work or for a dinner date than they are great.
