I discovered Pro Flowers years ago and was thrilled to find an affordable way to send beautiful flowers. I was a little unsure of how it would work, since it comes in a box, but the friend I sent them to called immediately to tell me they were beautiful and easy to get ready.
I recently ordered a Christmas bouquet from Pro Flowers and planned accordingly to have it sent on a day that would give me time before, during, and after the holiday to enjoy it. It arrived right on schedule in a nice sturdy box. The flowers come wrapped and with this order I picked a pretty red vase for them to go in.
The directions are clear and easy to follow. For this bouquet, I simply had to add the flower food packet to the water, cut the stems an inch, and put the whole thing in water for two hours. After the stems had their drink of water, I cut off the wrapping.
And this is what I had a day later. Beautiful red tulips and white lilies. They still have some blooming to do, and by Christmas, I'm sure they'll be even more spectacular. And of course, the kitchen now smells amazing. :)
So if you're looking to send flowers or another surprise (they have goodies like chocolate covered strawberries too!) be sure to check out Pro Flowers and have a look around. Coupon codes can be found here or with a Google search for terms like "Pro Flowers discounts" or "Pro Flowers coupon code". Have fun!
*I received a product for review, but opinions are always my own.

Ahhhh...Love my firemen! Even if my darn pics wouldn't upload or center when I tried because blogger is being a PITA! Welcome to another Weekend Dirty Dozen Blog Hop. The rules for participation can be found here:
http://weekenddirtydozen.blogspot.com/ I do have a drawing this week, too! Details at the end of the post!
This week is another 12 from my current release, Dating 911. My heroine's drunk just woke up in the ER and he's a bit amorous when my hero, Firefighter Jett Avery strolls in...
"That'd be the police, sweetheart." He chuckled. "The motto of the PFD is 'Survive, Prevent Harm and Be Nice'.
Emergency room nurse, Roxanne Carter is a loser-magnet wishing she could enjoy her single life. Commiserating with girlfriends over butterscotch martinis creates the idea of The Dating Manifesto--a not so scientific research project which promises to point the way to dating success. While gathering data to find the most suitable single men available, she wades through a series of unsavory, stale dates, which literally places her back at ground zero. Just when she is ready to give up, sin personified in the form of sexy firefighter Jett Avery, arrives tainting all of her previous data.
A traumatic warehouse fire, in which firefighter Jett Avery's closest friend dies, has him suffering from Posttraumtic Stress Disorder. Attempting to stave off the worst of his depression, he decides to use his brand of therapy...Sex. The remedy has lost luster until he encounters ER nurse Roxanne Carter.
The pursuit of Roxanne by Jett's twin brother, Doctor Cruz Avery, complicates her research and interferes with Jett's therapy. Does Roxanne choose the brother who by analysis is the perfect match? Or the broken, dark and irresistible one?

Riccoh Completes Times Square's First 100 Percent Solar Billboard
Ricoh Proud To Depend Solely on Sunlight; Billboard Reduces Carbon Emissions
West Caldwell, N.J., June 9, 2010 /PRNewswire/ — Ricoh Americas Corporation, a leading provider of digital office equipment and advanced document management solutions and services, yesterday announced the completion of its 100 percent solar powered electronic billboard, the Ricoh Eco Board, located at 3 Times Square at the corner of 7th Avenue and 42nd Street. The Ricoh Eco Board, which is 47 feet high by 126 feet long, is the first billboard in Times Square to be totally lit by solar energy. It is powered solely by 62 solar panels and 24 thin-film PV solar modules, and illuminated by 16 LED floodlights. Ricoh made a promise not to use conventional electricity from the grid to light the Eco Board and will allow it to go dark due to lack of sunlight. By using only solar power to light the sign, Ricoh is playing a part in reducing the amount of carbon emissions released by conventional electrical power sources. A special ceremony to celebrate the completion of the Eco Board took place on June 8 in New York's Times Square.
"When Ricoh decided to advertise in Times Square, we wanted to do so in an environmentally-responsible way that would have minimal negative impact on the environment. Our hope was that the Eco Board would become a powerful symbol of Ricoh's commitment to green practices and would challenge others to become more active," said Jason Dizzine, Director, Corporate Communications, Ricoh Americas Corporation. "Most billboards deliver a message, but this billboard is itself the message. For Ricoh, if the sign goes dark, that is ok. What is more important is that Ricoh is sharing in the bettering of our planet for everyone."
Ricoh chose Rec Solar, one of the pioneers of the solar industry, to equip the top of the Eco Board with a high-quality series of solar modules optimized for low-light conditions. In addition, Ricoh worked closely with Cooley Group, which has been at the forefront of polymer technology and coatings on flexible reinforced substrates for nearly a century, on the thin-film PV solar modules, manufactured by Xunlight Corporation.
"Ricoh's commitment to sustainable management is reflected not just in this solar billboard but in the products and services we offer our customers," said Ike Kakegawa, Vice President, Environmental Sustainability, Ricoh Americas Corporation. "We are making significant environmental contributions on a global scale through Ricoh's Total Green Office Solution, which takes a holistic approach to document management, combining green consultative services, energy-saving imaging equipment and software solutions to help customers meet their sustainability goals such as saving energy and paper, and reducing waste."
Ricoh Group has been steadfastly committed to the environment for over 30 years. In 1976, Ricoh established an Environmental Protection Group responsible for keeping Ricoh's environmental goals and strategies as a key consideration when planning, developing, designing and promoting new products and services. In 2009, Ricoh set medium and long-term targets for reducing the total CO2 emission (including the converted value of 5 gasses) by 87.5% by FY2050, and 30% by FY2020, compared to FY2000.
Ricoh has been named as one of the Global 100 Most Sustainable Corporations in the World for the past six consecutive years at the World Economic Forum in Davos. Ricoh has also won the World Environment Center (WEC) Gold Medal for International Corporate Achievement in Sustainable Development in 2003.

SMF - Just Installed!
I know I'd be satisfied....! (lascivious joking)On a side note.... do we know ANYTHING about Bernadette's mother? Wouldn't it be interesting if the warden was her mother?
Bern has been stated to be old enough to be Crest's mother and he's in his mid to late teens.
I always assumed all the main characters are in their 20's (except maybe Regina, Crest and Suspiria who i would say are around 19), because they seem a bit too mature and experienced to be under 20 (Bern was part of some gang and then worked as a bodyguard or something..), and it would be a little weird.
I think the author is not necessarily censoring sex. I mean there obviously is sex and violence aplenty, along with other themes like cannibalism. I think though, that Brion, like many authors believes "sex should be shown only if relevant to the plot." If you can get the point across without showing much, this is probably enough.
Oh shit is that Melter?
Anyone remember Ash from Book Zero?It might be a bit of a stretch for me to say it's her buuuut
I believe Brion F. did say she may be making a return (stated in the commentary at the end of book zero
) i don't think Moss would be in Marvallo at the coliseum tailing Bernadette. I don't think he ever found her that interesting.

Guilt tip: Voters gave DNA a boost
The guilt or innocence of a man executed for murder is less important than adhering to legal niceties, the Virginia Supreme Court declared recently.
Roger Keith Coleman was executed in 1992 by the Commonwealth of Virginia for the 1981 rape and murder of his sister-in-law, Wanda McCoy. The physical evidence, including semen samples, pointed strongly to his guilt. But Coleman staunchly denied that he had murdered McCoy even as he went to his death.
Ten years later, there are much more accurate ways to test biological samples obtained at crime scenes. The most effective new technique involves DNA testing that can identify precisely the person from whom a hair, a spot of blood, a drop of semen, or a clump of skin cells came.
The biological evidence in the Coleman case has been stored at a California testing lab for more than a decade. A group of newspapers, including the The Washington Post and The Boston Globe, sought legal permission to have those samples tested again using the more accurate DNA techniques available today.
This request has been fiercely resisted by Virginia officials, including two attorneys general, who have maintained that criminal proceedings and convictions must have judicial finality. When it comes to executions, the phrase "judicial finality" has a particularly chilling ring.
More is at stake than Coleman's guilt or innocence. Death penalty opponents have yet to find a modern U.S. case in which a demonstrably innocent person has been wrongfully executed. They believe that even one such case would dramatically reduce the American public's consistent support for the death penalty and eventually lead to its abolition.
Death penalty proponents believe (and fear) exactly the same thing.
But despite this larger political battle, state officials have a moral obligation to pursue justice as long as it takes, even beyond the grave. The Virginia Supreme Court's refusal to allow newspapers to test the Coleman DNA samples is probably correct on narrow legal grounds, but the court's decision ignored the larger issue of pursuing justice.
The refusal to use modern DNA testing in the Coleman case is particularly strange in Virginia, since the state has been the leader in using such tests to solve crimes. Since Virginia's DNA database opened for business in 1989, more than 900 crimes in which there were no suspects have been solved by means of DNA tests. In addition, six Virginia inmates have been released on the basis of post-conviction DNA testing. Nationally, 111 inmates have been released based on such tests.
As the case of convicted rapist Benjamin LaGuer shows, however, post-conviction DNA testing doesn't always exonerate; sometimes it proves guilt. The prosecutor in the LaGuer case, instead of fighting against the DNA test, should have been strongly in favor it. If prosecutors truly believe in the guilt of those they convict, they should be eager for the further confirmation of that guilt that DNA testing can provide. It is estimated that inmates who ask for DNA tests are further incriminated by those tests at least 50 percent of the time.
Today 26 states, including Virginia, permit access to post-conviction DNA testing, up from only two in 1999. Post-conviction DNA testing was on Virginia's ballot last week in the form of an amendment to the state constitution. The amendment is supposed to streamline the process whereby convicted felons can seek to use modern DNA testing techniques to prove their innocence.
Virginia voters who, like most other Americans, are appalled at the prospect that an innocent person might rot in prison or, worse, be wrongfully executed passed the ballot initiative handily. The amendment gives Virginia's Supreme Court immediate jurisdiction over petitions for post-conviction DNA testing. Once the justices have this jurisdiction, let us hope they are moved more by the search for justice than by the bureaucratic concerns of prosecutors.
In the meantime, Governor Mark Warner should immediately order that the DNA evidence in the Coleman case be tested. If the state is going to claim the awesome power to execute murderers, it must make every effort to insure that those it kills are in fact guilty.

Bluetooth speakers usually either focus on hands-free phone support or portable audio, but the Coda One straddles both functions, and then adds a little extra. However, it also embodies the phrase, "Jack of all trades, master of none."
The device is a little bit longer and thicker than a typical smartphone, although narrower. It features speakers that round out each end, and two microphones sit near the bottom speaker. The rubbery skin makes the Coda One easy to grip, but the matte-black surface tends to hide the buttons embedded on the front and sides. However, each button can easily be found by touch.
One side of the Coda One features an on/off switch and a mini-USB charging port, while the other holds volume up and down buttons, and a mode button. The front surface of the device features what bCoda calls a Multi-Function Button (MFB). Icons on the front light up to indicate Bluetooth connection, call, and battery status.
The Coda One lacks a 1/8-inch audio output jack, which would be convenient for bypassing its own speakers to use a car or other external audio system. An audio jack would be especially useful when using the Coda One for music playback in the car.
The Coda One package includes a magnetic clip, suitable for mounting the device to a car's sun visor, charging cable, and a 12-volt power point-to-USB adapter.
Charging over USB is pretty standard for this type of device, but always welcome as it greatly broadens where it can be powered. bCoda claims 40 days of standby time and 20 hours of talk time with the Coda One's lithium-ion battery.
Hands-free calls
Supporting Bluetooth version 3.0, the Coda One works as a hands-free phone speaker and offers A2DP for audio streaming. However, compared to the highly-rated Parrot Minikit Neo, the Coda One's phone features cover only the basics. The MFB lets you answer or hang up a call, and the mode button lets you switch the audio from the device to the phone. With an iPhone paired, holding down the MFB launched Siri, opening up the ability to use the phone's voice command for making calls.
The user manual says the Coda One will require a PIN when paired with a smartphone, by default set to 0000, but the iPhone we paired it with did not ask for a PIN. When switched on, the Coda One flashes its Bluetooth connection light, and speaks out loud that it is searching for a paired phone, then announces it has paired with a phone once it finds one.

Police are still trying to identify suspects in the homicide of a 61-year-old Greeley man.
Gumercindo Munoz-Vizcaino, known to friends and family as Carlos or Carlitos, was found dead Aug. 15 at a home in the 2100 block of 5th Street, according to Greeley police. Greeley police Sgt. Susan West, spokeswoman for the department, said the coroner has not determined an official cause of death, but investigators are treating Munoz-Vizcaino's death as a homicide.
"We're making progress," Greeley police Chief Jerry Garner said.
Police responded to the home about 6 p.m. after a resident reported seeing a man inside who looked injured, according to a news release. Witnesses have told police they saw a group of men in their late teens to early 20s running from the area on foot around 4 p.m. Thursday, fleeing north and then east.
Police say community members aren't in danger, as the homicide doesn't appear to be a random act.
Munoz-Vizcaino, originally of Chihuahua, Mexico, had four children and one step-child, along with 19 grandchildren and five great-grandchildren, according to his obituary. He worked for more than a decade at Andersen's Sales and Salvage in Greeley and was the neighborhood mechanic.
Services are planned for 4-8 p.m. Monday at the Moser Funeral Service Chapel, 3501 11th Ave. in Evans.
Investigators are asking anyone with information pertinent to the investigation to contact investigator John Kinne through the Weld County Communications Center at (970) 350-9600.

Business Contract Hire is commonly referred to as vehicle lease and allows businesses a fixed payment method for the use of a vehicle for a term of normally between 12-48 months. The payments attract VAT of which for cars 50% and for commercial vehicles 100% of the finance element is reclaimable, 100% of the VAT for any maintenance payment is reclaimable. The rental payments are also classed as a true business expense so can be wholly offset against corporation tax. The benefits are fixed monthly payments with no disposal risk but reasonable care has to be taken of the vehicle and also there is an obligation to remain under the stated mileage at the contract inception or the finance company will levy a charge for loss of value.

Minus Napolean my crazy cat who thinks he's a dog, and my horse who... well she knows she's a horse :p
Seth and Sofie. She hates him, but it's not a huge deal because she has no teeth, and Seth doesn't mind that she hates him. However, she will share her bed with him, just don't ask her to play.
I think this pic is adorable! Seth and LiLo looking super innocent.
Breed guesses?
The saga of the rope toy.
OMG come back here!
Drag me!
He seriously wanted her to drag him but she's a weener when it comes to pulling on things with her mouth.
I love that he doesn't mind being a little submissive. LiLo invented submission so I hope this makes her feel a little powerful haha.
When you can't quite reach the toy you can just chomp the dog carrying it!

I'm not just wondering this because the Knicks decisively beat the Heat in all of the games this season so far, and I'm not just wondering this because the 2-13 Wizards beat them. Those don't make the Heat look like a force to be reckoned with for the Knicks, but it's still early in the season so I'm not gonna say those are the only reasons.
Last post-season Rose got injured, so the Heat faced the Sixers, who gave them a tough time anyway. The Pacers' depth gave them trouble. The Celtics weren't far from beating them. And the Thunder were young and inexperienced.
This is not to say the Heat weren't good, but Wade wasn't that good in the post-season, and the only game I remember their best player DOMINATING was that one game against the Celtics, game six I think. LeBron seemed all he had to do was be solid against the Thunder, instead of needing to be amazing. That's not to say he WOULDN'T have been amazing if he had to, but I wasn't impressed with his play as far as Finals performances go.
Wade also isn't the same. He's older, but maybe he just has to get healthier.
I see the Thunder being a tougher match-up for the Knicks.
What do you think?

Living vicariously through Pope Francis, Time Magazine Person of the Year
Whether Pope Francis is kissing a disfigured man with boils, washing the feet of a young muslim woman, driving his own car while refusing to live in the papal apartment, or simply denouncing excessive consumerism in typical 'counter culture' fashion, he has been doing some noteworthy things since assuming the papacy earlier this year. Even from an evangelical perspective, there are a lot of positive aspects to be gleaned from the change in tone at The Vatican.
However, as cheerleaders of The Pope have seemingly come out of the woodwork this year, it has not been to share how Jesus is working in their lives or how their personal Christian walk is going. On the contrary, most often it has been to rave about all the great things Pope Francis is doing.

These liners were super soft and really made clean-up a breeze. Keeping a toddler still for a diaper change is a task in itself, and when you are cleaning poo off a cloth diaper it really adds to the challenge. My only regret is that I didn't try these out sooner! We now have less staining and I don't have to soak my poopy diapers as long! We tried it overnight just to see how it would hold up, it didn't disintegrate or anything but it was all bunched up and smooshed, not something that could have been comfortable for the little man. Luckily he doesn't poo in the middle of the night, so we have no need for them at nighttime anyway. I am waiting for the day that I throw it in the wash on accident, I will let you all know how it holds up when I do!
There are 100 - 9"x 14" large sheets per package. You may want to cut these liners in half for newborn babies.
- Special dry-weave for comfort
- Holds solids to prevent soiling the diaper
- Biodegradable and safe to flush
- 100 - 9" x 14" large sheets per package

Story highlights
- Judge orders suspect to be held without bail, and undergo a psychiatric exam
- Erika Menendez is charged with second-degree murder as a hate crime
- The woman made "statements implicating herself in the death of Sunando Sen," police said
- Witnesses say a woman pushed the man onto the tracks as a train entered a station
A 31-year-old Bronx woman has been charged with second-degree murder as a hate crime in the death of a man shoved in front of a subway train, Queens prosecutors said Saturday.
District Attorney Richard A. Brown identified the woman as Erika Menendez. She was arraigned late Saturday, where she was ordered held without bail and to undergo a psychiatric evaluation.
"(She) said in sum and substance 'I pushed a Muslim off the train tracks because I hate Hindus and Muslims ever since 2001 when they put down the twin towers I've been beating them up,'" the prosecutor said in a statement.
The victim, Sunando Sen, grew up in a Hindu family, his roommate said.
Witnesses said a woman paced the platform and talked to herself Thursday evening shortly before pushing the man as the 11-car train entered the station. The 46-year-old man's body was pinned under the second car after it came to a stop.
The woman made "statements implicating herself in the death of Sunando Sen," Paul Browne, the New York Police Department's chief spokesman, said earlier. Security video showed a person running from the scene.
Menendez was identified Saturday afternoon in a lineup, Browne said. She was recognized earlier in the day on a street in Brooklyn by a passer-by who called 911, the police spokesman said. The caller said she resembled the woman in the video.
"The defendant is accused of committing what is every subway commuter's worst nightmare -- being suddenly and senselessly pushed into the path of an oncoming train," said Brown, the district attorney. "The victim was allegedly shoved from behind and had no chance to defend himself. Beyond that, the hateful remarks allegedly made by the defendant and which precipitated the defendant's actions can never be tolerated by a civilized society."
It was not clear Saturday evening whether Menendez had obtained an attorney.
Sen, of Queens, owned a shop called New Amsterdam Copies and was a graphic designer for posters, said roommate Ar Suman.
In early December, Ki-Suck Han, 58, was shoved onto the tracks in a Times Square station as a train approached.
Naeem Davis, 30, a homeless man, has been charged with second-degree murder in that case.

Stores staying open for procrastinating holiday shoppers
Economist: High-end stores seeing good spending
Thanksgiving was early this year, so shoppers had more time between Black Friday and Christmas, but as it turns out, many have procrastinated.
"I'm just starting. I'm not getting much this year, so I figured today's the day," said Ginger Bryan, a shopper.
This year has shown shoppers have taken a little bit longer to find their way to the stores. While Black Friday sales were strong, sales slowed thereafter.
Morris Segall, a senior economist with Sage Policy Group, said spending is picking up again closer to the holidays, and overall, people are buying.
"I think to the extent that there's been any consumer restraint, it has been because we haven't got a solution to the fiscal cliff, and that has been a restraining factor," Segall said.
Some retailers are offering deep discounts and are staying open longer.
"The later evening traffic has picked up quite a bit," said Gwen Ell Fredericks, of Blush at Towson Town Center.
Starting Friday morning, Macy's is staying open 48 hours straight, and Toys "R" Us is staying open for 88 hours.
"Clearly, they think and they've seen in the past that people are willing to shop for great bargains into the wee hours of the morning, especially if they procrastinated about Christmas shopping up until this point," Segall said.
Segall said spending is good in high-end stores, but not as good at lower-cost retailers.

10-year-old Cassidy McPartland's smile lights up a room. And it's that smile and sweet demeanor that has helped make her fundraising venture for St. Louis Children's Hospital called "Perfect Pencils" so successful. "When she tells people she is raising money for the kids at Children's and that she herself is waiting for a lung transplant, people just can't help but give more," says Kim, Cassidy's mom.
"Perfect Pencils" is the brainchild of Cassidy, who paints, colors and sells the #2 classics to family, friends and strangers who can't resist that smile. "They are perfect because they are colored," she says. As a budding entrepreneur, she has recently expanded her business to include selling beaded and duct tape bracelets, which have been especially popular at Blue Moon Activewear in Clayton, where Cassidy was invited to sell her items. "The community in St. Louis has just embraced us, and we are so appreciative," Kim says.
The McPartlands, from Franklin Lakes, New Jersey, have been in St. Louis for months waiting for a lung transplant for Cassidy. But this is not the first long hospital stay for the family. When Cassidy was 7 months old, she was diagnosed with a brain tumor, which was aggressively treated with surgery and chemotherapy. Cassidy was cancer-free. However, at 6-years-old, the McPartlands noticed their oldest daughter was having breathing problems. Doctors told the family that Cassidy had drug-induced lung disease as a result of the chemo she received as a baby—Cassidy would need a lung transplant.
Doctors in New Jersey told the family that the best place to go was St. Louis Children's Hospital. "So we drove halfway across the country… but we would have driven halfway across the world to get the best care for her," says Kim. Six months later, Cassidy got her lungs, which inspired her to start "Perfect Pencils" as a way to give back to St. Louis Children's Hospital and help other lung transplant patients like her.
Sadly, in the spring of 2013, Cassidy began experiencing chronic lung rejection—her new lungs were failing and she needed to go back to St. Louis and back on the transplant list. While the road has not been easy for the McPartlands, who consists of Cassidy, Kim and her husband and Cassidy's little sister, Valerie, the family is incredibly grateful for the care they have received at Children's and the outpouring of support from the St. Louis community. "This has become a second home for us and the nurses and doctors, including Dr. Stuart Sweet, have become like family," says Kim. "It's nice to know that we have so many people pulling for us and for Cassidy."

A new-age/more civilized hippie who can usually be found journaling in an Eno in the middle of the forest, wearing Chaco's or Birkenstocks and athletic shorts (always ready to hike or go on an adventure at any moment), a backpack with a CamelBak water bottle attached by a carabiner, and with dreadlocks (all over or just one or two). The phrase "save the world" in their vocabulary is interchangeable with "travel the world and meet cool people from different cultures" (usually talking about Africa).
Ever since she moved to Portland, she has become so granola. All she wants to do is go hiking in her Chacos and she brings her hammock with her wherever she goes.

An adjective used to describe people who are environmentally aware (flower child, tree-hugger), open-minded, left-winged, socially aware and active, queer or queer-positive, anti-oppressive/discriminatory (racial, sexual, gender, class, age, etc.) with an organic and natural emphasis on living, who will usually refrain from consuming or using anything containing animals and animal by-products (for health and/or environmental reasons), as well as limit consumption of what he or she does consume, as granola people are usually concerned about wasting resources. Usually buy only fair-trade goods and refrain from buying from large corporations, as most exploit the environment as well as their workers, which goes against granola core values. The choice of not removing body hair (see amazon) and drug use are not characteristics that define granola people, and people, regardless of granola status, may or may not partake in said activities. This definition is sometimes confused with hippy.
Jack: My best friend is vegan and only buys produce that is organically grown from local farmers. Her and her feminist, vegan boyfriend are both in Greenpeace and advocate for queer rights. She waxes her legs but she's still granola.
Jill: So that means she's not a dyke? And she grows her own reefer?
Jack: Just because she's granola, doesn't mean she does drugs. Also, granola status has nothing to do with sexual preference.
Jill: Well maybe she'll know where to buy hemp and how to tie-dye?
Jack: She's granola, not a hippy. Some granola people are hippy and vice-versa, but they're not the same thing.

Someone who is "granola" tends to enjoy the outdoors, all while staying inside in their nice suburban middle-class white neighborhood. They are usually seen wearing Chacos, Patagonia t-shirts, and Columbia PFG shorts, along with a North Face backpack, a Camelbak water bottle (attached with a carabiner,) and even a Life is Good hat and Kavu keychain. They claim to enjoy hiking and other outdoor activities while rolling up in their off-road vehicle that they would never dare get a speck of dirt on. They dream about living in the mountains and taking amazing roadtrips but never do. They care about nature and want to "save the trees" and recycle as much as possible. Those who have gone granola actually listen to pretty good music, like folk and alternative and heavily enjoy Christian music if they are religious (another reason they enjoy the outdoors - to get "closer to God"). In short, granola people are almost like modern-day transcendentalists and slight hippies, just without the drugs and psychedelic music.
Jack: Did you see Will rolling up in his shiny, clean Jeep Liberty with a kayak on top? He stepped out wearing a Patagonia t-shirt and $100 Chacos! He must have gone granola.

A person who dresses like a hippy, eats natural foods (granola), and is usually a Liberal, but in all other ways is a typical middle class white person, and is likely to revert back to being straight when they finish college.
Did you see that granola chick at the farmer's market buying bean sprouts?
Yeah, her new Volvo was parked next to me.

I've had a lot of emails about brushes and what brushes do what, so I broke it down a bit for you ladies, I didn't include ALL my brushes but just the main ones.
From left to right: Essence of Beauty Baby Blender Brush, MAC 180 Small Buffer Brush, Lumiere Cosmetics Flat Top Buffer Brush, EM Duo Fiber Brush (equivalent to MAC #187 brush), Coastal Scents Large Flat Top Brush, Fan Brush
Let's start with the face brushes. I personally spend more on face brushes because those are the ones that go on my face, and since I have sensitive skin, I don't mind spending more on a good brush that doesn't irritate my skin. Like I mentioned in my previous posts, I am currently in love with the MAC Buffer Brush (#180), it really does the job and allows me to build my desired coverage for my mineral foundations. The Lumiere Brush I use to get into hard to reach spots, or to simply wipe off any eyeshadows that falls on my nose or cheeks, the fan brush is good for that purpose as well. I like the Essence of Beauty brushes, they are really soft for a great price and they have not failed me yet (available at CVS Pharmacies).
Their baby blender brush is good for blending larger areas, even the entire eyelid. I like to use it to also get into hard to reach places like the sides of the nose, or to highlight. The MAC #187 Duo Fiber Brush (or any similar duo fiber brush) is PERFECT for picking up the right amount of powder, I personally use it for my MAC MSF's (mineralized skin finishes), it picks up just enough powder for me to highlight my forehead, cheeks, and nose without making me look overdone. I love it!
Rule of Thumb: When using your moisturizer and primer, let each one dry before applying your foundation to avoid blotchy areas or patches.
The kabuki brush is a lot more dense and usually has a large wide head. It picks up a lot of powder in one sitting and hence gives you fuller coverage right off the bat, rather than allowing you to build your desired coverage.
From left to right: Essentials Blush Brush, Essence of Beauty Angled Contour Brush, Essence of Beauty Angled Blusher, Essentials retractable powder brush, Small Angled Contour Brush
I use the Essence of Beauty Angled Contour Brush (second from the left) to apply blush to my cheeks sometimes, but mostly to contour my face such as under the chin and and jawline. MAC #136 brush also does the trick. The one next to it, the Contour Brush w/the white bristles I also use for my cheeks. The retractable brush is for my purse, and the small angled contour brush(nose shading brush I call it) I use to shade and sculpt the sides of my nose using MAC Blush in Strada (most people use Emote, but I am fairly light). [see pic below]
From left to right: Double-Ended Fluff Brush (Flat paddle/Slanted Fluff), Eyelid Shading Brush (Coastal Scents), MAC Brush #239, Sonia Kushuk Concealer Brush, Essence of Beauty Travel Brushes (the last 3).
The double-ended fluff brush is awesome because well--it's double ended! I use the flat round tip paddle brush to apply a neutral or highlight eyeshadows on my entire lid, and the slanted tip for the Outer-V.
I love MAC Brush #239 because it's great for applying pigments foiled (wet). Hard to clean though, but nonetheless, great brush.
The ANGLED BRUSHES are great for the Outer V as well, or applying eyeshadow from the inner to the outer corner of your eye. They also give a lot of depth to your eye.
The CREASE BRUSHES are great for applying a wide range of color on your crease line or outer corner, the tiny Essence of Beauty crease brush is great for contouring the eye.
Sonia Kusuk Blending Brush and Sephora's Rounded Crease Brush
These brushes similar to the MAC #217 brush, are the tools I use to blend colors together so there are no harsh lines whatsoever. I cannot live without these brushes!
I use Studio Tools Concealer Brush, it's made out of taklon so it's great for applying liquid and cream concealers. I also spray a bit of the Aquafina Facial Hydrator Spray (Alyssa it's in the facial moisturizers aisle along with the acne products) on the bristles to dampen it a bit so it's not too stiff, and then apply my concealer or even along with my MAC Paint Pots to apply them as my base.
The flat top eyeliner brush (aka push brush) is great for applying gel eyeliners such as the Indelible Gel Eyeliners, or MAC Fluidlines. Gently dab across your upper lashlineall the way across (hence the push). I use Essence of Beauty travel eyeliner brush because it too is also double-ended, with a tiny eyeliner brush on the other end which allows me to wing my eyeliner.
Top: Studio Tools Smudge Brush and Essence of Beauty Sponge Smudge Brush
Bottom: Sponge-tip applicator brush
The smudgies! Isn't it just a cute name??? They are great for just that- smudging! I use it to smudge the upper lash line when going for a smokey look, or smudge the lower lash line for an ultra sexy sultry look and to give your peepers more definition and to open up the eye.
The sponge-tip applicator brush is great for touching up on concealer as well as foundation in case there are spots you need to touch up.

Alyssa- The kabuki brush is good to have if you need more coverage, I personally don't need a lot of coverage and I have a heavy hand, so the MAC 180 brush works great for me.
Liz- Happy Halloween! Looking forward to your questions! :)

BRUSH O RAMA! i am such a brush junkie, and really enjoyed this post, vanessa!

what do you use to contour your nose? is it with darker foundation or just darker loose powder?
i just purchased some brushes from sephora, not really sure what to do with them, so this article is great!
- October 31, 2007 at 8:24 PM
- Vanessa said...
Christine- The Aquafina spray is similar to the MAC fix it's charged with aloe and vitamins as well but isn't to set makeup.
Karen- I love brushes, I find myself buying duplicates for the sake of it!
Gabriela- I will show this soon, I actually have done a post on contouring, I use MAC Blush in Strada which is like a taupe/light brown powder and I apply it to the sides of my nose.

About how much .. if you remember that is, was the Aquafina Spray? I might return my Fix + just because I only use it to spray on my brushes to adhere the color pay off.. and I guess I could also do the same with the Aquafina product for cheaper. I don't really use the Fix + to set my makeup, I spray it on my face from time to time.. for the fun of it. But other than that, I don't spray it to set my makeup since I don't wear foundation and such. What do you think?
- October 31, 2007 at 9:38 PM
- Vanessa said...
Christine- I believe it was about $4 or $5 at Wal-Mart. I use it to spray my face to refresh my skin sometimes and right before I use my toner, I also use it to dampen my brushes a bit. I like mine a lot, I don't really like the idea of paying so much for "water" just because it's by MAC but that's just my preference...

Thank you so much for the help. Believe me, I am so indecisive when it comes to these things. I'm gonna end up returning my Fix +, which was about $15+ for the Aquafina one!

Ok great. I don't need lots of coverage but I noticed i tend to put too much makeup in one spot when dealing with loose powders....where do you think I should start?
- November 1, 2007 at 10:27 AM
- Vanessa said...
Alyssia- Try the Lumiere Flat Top Brush, that was my first brush and I still like it! It's good if you don't need that much coverage and just tap and buff on your face.

I was reading the comments and I just wanted to let Christine know she needs to go to Walmart for the Aquafina product. Currently they dont carry it elsewhere, got the info off their website yesterday. And the product is used as a hydrator which contains jojoba and vitamins. Its great when you need a refresher on a hot summer day. Other companies carry something similar to refresh and set the makeup but it does cost alot more. Hope this helps!

Kiki- Yup! That's where I got it from Wal-Mart! I mentioned that on my post about the spray months ago! I love it!

Vanessa - so that's what you spray to wet your pigment?
oh btw, i sent you an email to your gmail. thx
- November 1, 2007 at 4:57 PM
- Vanessa said...
Liz- No I don't use it to wet my pigments, like I mentioned I use it to dampen the brush right before I use the MAC Paint Pots, for pigments I use the mixing medium.

The Central Connecticut women's basketball team will open the 2013-14 season tonight at the University of Central Florida. Beryl Piper enters her seventh season as the head coach of her alma mater with a roster that features 11 returning players, including three starters from last season.
Coach Piper Introduces the 2013-14 Team
Notes on tonight's game...
Today • The Blue Devils travel to Orlando, FL, to open the 2013-14 season against the Knights of UCF. This is the first ever meeting between the Blue Devils and the Knights. It is also CCSU's first game against the American Athletic Conference, which formed in July. The Blue Devils finished last season with a 16-14 record and tied for fourth in the Northeast Conference standings. CCSU was the #5 seed in the NEC Tournament and fell to the #4 seed Red Flash of Saint Francis U. The Knights finished last season with a 16-18 record and were the #8 seed in the Conference USA Tournament. UCF made a run to the title game, but fell short of a championship.
Series History • This is the first meeting between the Blue Devils and the Knights of UCF.
NEC "Social" Media Day • The Northeast Conference held its second annual "social" media day on Tuesday, Oct. 22, at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, NY. The event was streamed live on NECFrontRow.com, the broadcast featured interviews with all of the conference's head coaches and many of the top players on the circuit.
Who is Back • The Blue Devils return 11 players from last year's squad, including three starters. Seniors Jessica Babe and Jaleen Thomas and junior Kaley Watras. Senior Lauren Arbogast saw extensive action off the bench last season as CCSU's sixth-women and worked her way into the starting line-up 12 times. Also returning are junior Johnna Fisher, sophomores Raven Makins, Tejahne Malone, Kayla Miller, Nicole Ferguson and Amanda Harrington. Senior Brooke Bailey will also return to action after sitting out last season.
Who is Gone • The Blue Devils lost Jaclyn Babe, Kirsten Daamen and Jameilia Dillon to graduation. Babe played only two seasons with CCSU, but became one of the program's elite scorers and was a First Team All-NEC selection last season after scoring 474 points. Daamen, CCSU's career leader in blocked shots with 200, was a defensive force for CCSU in the paint over her four seasons. Dillon provided CCSU with valuable minutes off the bench in in a spot start roll over her career.
The New • Freshmen Giocelis Reynoso, Aleah Epps, Chayla Lewis and Lauren Wolosik make up the CCSU class of 2017.
Top Returning Player • Senior guard Jessica Babe is CCSU's top returning player for the 2013-14 season. Babe led the team in rebounds (7.3 rbs/g) and assists (3.63 asts/g) last season and is second among returning scorers (9.0 pts/g). She posted totals of 220 rebounds, 109 assists and 270 points as a junior. She also had 67 steals a year ago. Another strength for Babe is her free throw shooting, she connected on 71-of-87 attempts last season a 81.6% mark from the free throw line.
The Captains • Seniors Jaleen Thomas and Jessica Babe were selected as team captains for the 2013-14 season by their peers. Babe and Thomas are both entering their fourth season with the Blue Devils and both were starters last season.
The Schedule • The Blue Devils will play 20 different teams during the 2013-14 regular season. CCSU will open with games at American Athletic Conference members Central Florida and South Florida. America East members New Hampshire & UMass-Lowell will visit Detrick Gym, while CCSU plays at Hartford and Vermont. CCSU will play a pair of Atlantic-10 teams, with a home game against URI and a road trip to La Salle. The Blue Devils will host Siena and visit Rider of the MAAC. With a home game against Colonial Athletic Association member Hofstra serving as the final non-conference game of the season.
Scoring Points • The Blue Devils return 56.5% of their points from last season. The biggest question mark will be replacing the scoring of Jaclyn Babe who posted a team-high 16.3 points per game.
Sixth in Three Stats • Jessica Babe finished last season ranked sixth in the Northeast Conference in rebounds (7.3), assists (3.63) and steals (2.23) per game.
Non-Conference Last Season • The Blue Devils finished non-conference play last season with a 6-6 record. The Blue Devils posted two victories over Atlantic 10 members, two over America East members, one MAAC and one MEAC. Two of the Blue Devils' losses came to nationally ranked Texas and the University of Miami. Jessica Babe was the Blue Devils' second leading scorer in non-conference games last season at 9.6 points per game. Lauren Arbogast (7.3) and Kaley Watras were the fourth and fifth scores in non-conference last season.
Coach Piper In Openers • Beryl Piper is 3-3 in season openers as the head coach of the Blue Devils. She dropped the season opener in each of her first three season, but has won the opening game the last three years. CCSU has won the first two games of the season each of the last three years.
NEC Preseason Poll • The Blue Devils were picked fifth in the NEC Preseason Coaches' Poll. Robert Morris was selected first, followed by Sacred Heart, Mount St. Mary's and Saint Francis U. St. Francis Brooklyn, Bryant, LIU Brooklyn, Fairleigh Dickinson and Wagner filled out the bottom half of the poll. Robert Morris collected five first place votes with the remaining five votes split between Sacred Heart (3), Mount (1) and Saint Francis U (1).

Safe - for now.
This is the second assault on the tiger sharks of Aliwal Shoal in 2008. The sad news I received today ruined much more than just my day.
Read what Mark Addison of Blue Wilderness, Umkomaas / Scottburgh, wrote:
Dear all:
Today was a tragic day for the tiger sharks in the Aliwal Shoal Marine Protected Area. Two animals were killed in the shark nets at Scottburgh this morning and we were able to free another little girl later in the day.
Kind regards
I felt sick (literally), devastated, sad, and outraged beyond description.
The diver who rescued the small tiger girl, and lovingly holds on to her, is Steve Benjamin, a young marine biologist who works as a shark guide at Blue Wilderness. This is, by far, the most tender and telling 'man-shark' photograph I have ever seen.
The image could be the poster for the forthcoming "Year of the Shark 2009".
Steve: We all embrace and applaud you for having saved this little girl. You are a gentleman in the true sense of the word - a gentle man!
We will have to launch a massive, well coordinated initiative with all means we have at our disposal to have the South African authorities remove the shark nets in their territory. This issue is long overdue, and now is the time to ACT decisively!
We need to let the world know that to protect the tiger sharks of Aliwal Shoal is a just cause - it will be the fight of the concerned few against the indifference of the many. No more, no less.
Let our motto be:
"Shark nets: We don't need the nets - we need the sharks!

Producer Price Index
Also found in: Dictionary, Thesaurus, Medical, Acronyms, Encyclopedia, Wikipedia.
Producer Price Index (PPI)
Producer Price Index
An index tracking the price of goods bought and sold in bulk before they reach the retail level. The producer price index usually tracks changes in these prices on a monthly basis. A large change in producer prices can lead to a change in retail prices, which affects consumers most directly. As a result, a few countries use the producer price index as a measure of inflation, but most do not. A dramatic increase in producer prices, however, may be seen as an early indicator of inflation. It is also called the wholesale price index.
producer price index
A comprehensive index of price changes at the wholesale level. Because wholesale price changes eventually find their way into consumer prices, the producer price index is closely watched as an early indicator of future retail price changes. Formerly called wholesale price index, price index. Compare consumer price index. See also GDP deflator.

We saw the trailer for "Machete" hit the tubes on Friday afternoon, but the quality was terrible and we weren't gonna hang around for an extra 15 minutes to bring you a lousy video. Well praise be, a nice clean copy is here for your viewing pleasure.
"Machete" stars veteran movie goon Danny Trejo in his first feature-film leading role as an former federale hired to assassinate a U.S. senator. The film is based on a fake trailer writer-director Robert Rodriguez made for 2007's "Grind House."
Backing up Trejo are Robert De Niro, Jeff Fahey, Michelle Rodriguez, Jessica Alba, Cheech Marin, Steve Seagal and Don Johnson.
U.S. & World
"Machete" opens Sept. 3 and promises to be a ripping good time.

Individual 520.360 DGH
Program-controlled 60° two-sided double bevel
Fully automatic double-bevel band saw machines with a bevel range of 60° on both sides. Individually configurable feed lengths to 6,000 mm and graphical, dialog-based operator prompts offer a wide range of applications.
Innovative standard equipment
The Individual series offers a universal, flexible solution for a broad spectrum of job requirements. The very stable saw design in combination with premium components, such as linear guides, allows high-performance cutting. Bevel cuts up to 60° and the large cutting range cover the requirements for steel construction.
Powered shavings brush always runs synchronized to the saw band speed.
Precise and stable
On both columns, the saw frame is mounted to high-precision, play-free linear guides. These guides guarantee maximally smooth operation and cutting precision.
No wear
For bevel cuts, the supporttable swivels with the saw band. This ensures that the supporttable is never cut.
Bevel clamp
The bevel clamp is right on the front of the pivoting console, thus allowing a simple, uncomplicated workflow.
The vice is guided on hardened, ground rails. The special design allows the slide rails to be readjusted at any time and the vice to be held play-free.
Large guide shoes made of vibration-damping cast material in combination with carbide slideways and low-wear guide rollers make for precise cuts.
Simple. Clear. Easy to use
The control panel on Individual semi-automatic devices is laid out simply and clearly. The lighted display gives status and error messages in plain text.
Saw band tensioner
Standard equipment includes a hydraulic band tension display, an electronic monitor for saw blade tension and saw band breakage, and more.
Cutting feed and cutting pressure are set individually at the control panel. The selected cutting pressure is displayed on a manometer.
Full-lift cylinders
Generously sized full-lift cylinders allow vice operation right from the control panel.
ADFR – The highest precision. Faster cut.
Less wear.
The ADFR system regulates the interplay of the cutting pressure and the cutting feed automatically in real time. A sensor gives the current load on the saw band and regulates the cutting feed according to the shape of the material. For larger cross cuts to the material, the cutting channel lengthens and the saw band's load increases. If the cutting feed in these ranges is not automatically adjusted, the saw band's life drastically decreases or the cutting time significantly drops due to a lower feed.
Technical date
A system solution for frictionless material flow
The new X handling system offers unprecedented flexibility for tailoring a handling system to individual needs and conditions. Load capacities and automation levels can be adjusted with perfect flexibility and modified at a later time. Besides the roll conveyor in a regular and propelled version, the X system comprises a rich array of options, from vertical rollers, to length measuring systems all the way to cross conveyor units and shifting devices.
High flexibility
With the new System X roll conveyors, the load capacity can be customized by the number of rollers and support feet used. The roll conveyor's feed profile even allows varying roller and foot distances on the same roll conveyor unit. When needed, additional rollers and/or support feet can be installed at any time.
Easy on material in a trolley version, as a chain cross conveyor or as a slide unit with pushing fingers that can be used on both sides.
The handling program offers simple, precise length measuring systems in almost unlimited lengths for custom adjustment to your requirements. The versions range from a simple, completely manual measuring stop, to a digital measuring stop with hand wheel setting, all the way to a high-precision NC measuring stop with a sensitive limit switch for cutting heavy materials to exact length in coordination with propelled roll conveyors.
Simple, clear operation with a large display. From the membrane keyboard, the striking arm is pneumatically released or raised and lowered.
Simple, clear operation with a large display. From the membrane keyboard, the striking arm is pneumatically released or raised and lowered.

text: Introducing RockScroll May 9, '08 Comments [64] Posted in Musings | Tools Sponsored By When I came to Microsoft I saw a really cool tool being used internally and immediately wanted to work with the author, Rocky Downs (who is blogless, but exceeding talented), to get it released. Fast forward to now, plus an installer, and here it is. The basic (as in "only") idea is that RockScroll extends the scrollbar in Visual Studio to show a syntax highlighted thumbnail view of your source. This is really useful for those excessively long source code files you know you have. It's just one DLL and you can turn it off from Tools|AddIns just by un-checking the checkbox. Enjoy! Download Rocky Downs' RockScroll for Visual Studio Works On My Machine Disclaimer: This is released with exactly zero warranty or support. If it deletes files or kills your family pet, you have been warned. It might work great, and it might not. It hasn't been tested against the myriad of other VS Add-Ins, but it works on my machine in both VS2005 and VS2008. It does look a little odd next to Resharper, a tool that also adds a scrollbar. Good luck. A reader, Hans, says: "I have found that (not suprisingly) RockScroll works very well with split windows, if you bind a shortcut key to the "Window.Split" command." for those of you having trouble with split windows.
