The explosion of methamphetamine production across the region is attributed to the one-pot method. Vermont and New York do not have laws or regulations standardizing the cleanup of a meth lab.
The one-pot method is an extremely flammable mix of several chemicals and the residue left behind is toxic. Since there are no laws on the books in Vermont or New York regulating the cleanup process of a meth lab is the responsibility of the property owner.
In fact, there is not even a requirement to remove the hazardous residue that could cause health problems for children and adults.
And as Newschannel 5 found out, the toxicity levels can be extremely high.
"I wasn't very pleased that's for sure," property owner Linda McDonald said.
McDonald says she had no idea that her tenant of five years was cooking meth in the apartment he was renting from her.
New York State troopers raided the Mooers, New York apartment in August of 2012 and found a working one-pot meth lab inside the upstairs bathroom.
"It wasn't until later that they told us it was that. I can't pronounce the word well," McDonald said.
We asked if she meant methamphetamine and she said she did. She hasn't been able to rent the place since.
"We're getting it ready for a new tenant as quickly as we possibly can," McDonald said.

Over Qualified Workers

Updated: January 28, 2013
The study is based on the U.S. Labor Department findings that the number of college graduates in the workforce is higher than the number of positions requiring a degree.
The study also notes 15% of taxi drivers in 2010 had bachelors degrees compared to just 1% 40 years ago. Researchers also found 25% of retail workers held bachelors degrees compared to less than 5% 40 years ago.

Chesonis Commons will house the Center for Civic Engagement that teaches students about civic leadership, and the Center for Mindfulness and Empathy Education that supports emotional literacy. But a main focus of the new space will be its Science Center that students of all grades will be able to use.
"We're offering three brand new centers that will be housed in the commons, including a project space in the basement. The project space will be dedicated to design thinking," said Valerie Myntti, Interim Head of School. "Kids will be as limited as their imaginations limit them."
The building is named for Arunas Chesonis who gave $1 million for the $3 million project.
"The previous headmaster Tim Cottrell and I had always talked about sustainability and the work we had done in town and in other universities. He came up with an idea to blend innovation of science and technology for sustainability with the care and culture Harley represents," said Chesonis. "Our world is going to be a different place 100 years from now and the sooner that kids and parents learn about that and can teach that not only in their own schools but with their colleagues in the city and the rest of the country, I think it's going to give us a head start."
The 14,000-square-foot building will also be what's called a "living building" that will generate its own energy, heat and cool and will be operated by the students themselves.
Construction has started and they expect to be finished by next Fall.

Hyundai Santa Fe Lemon Odds and Nada Odds
Other sources of Hyundai Santa Fe reliability information provide only averages, which can conceal as much as they reveal. So we also report the percentage of Hyundai Santa Fes with no repairs at all in the past year and the percentage of Hyundai Santa Fes that are lemons (required three or more repair trips in the past year). These figures might surprise you.
These stats are promptly updated four times a year, to closely track Hyundai Santa Fe lemon odds as the cars age. Others can be over a year behind. Only TrueDelta tells you how reliable the Hyundai Santa Fe has been recently.
See what our members say about Hyundai Santa Fe lemon odds and brand reputation.

Hyundai Santa Fe Lemon Odds and Nada Odds through December 31, 2012
General NotesNote the sample sizes in the right column. For a precise Nada Odds, it'd be best to have 50+ cars. For Lemon Odds, 100+. In most cases the sample sizes are between 25 and 35, and differences of less than six points are probably not meaningful. This is especially a factor with the "Lemon Odds," where nearly all scores are low.That said, the Lemon Odds figures are probably much lower than many people suspected, so we've posted them. Similarly, the Nada Odds are probably higher than many people suspected. Even with the least reliable cars in this results set your odds of no repairs would be better than one in three. Surprised? MethodologyThe samples include cars for which we have at least nine months of data in the past year. The "Nada-odds" are adjusted based on the average number of months of data per car. These stats are very close to what they'd be if we included only cars with a full year of data.
Only successfully completed repairs are currently included in the analysis. Recalls and problems fixed with just a reflash or warning light reset are not included.

2013 | 4dr SUV 290-horsepower 3.3L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
This vehicle is another example of how and why Hyundai is progressively grabbing more of the market share of vehicles out there. If I had enough room in my driveway I would have purchases this vehicle; even though I'm not a fan of CUV's or SUV's; I was really that impressed with it...and of course, with the mile I had, as well as others put on it, they would have to sell it USED!!! |
2007 | 4dr SUV turbocharged 148hp 2.2L I4 Diesel 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
I still have my old 2002 Hyundai Accent. Never had any big problems with it. |

2nd Hyunday had great luck with first. |

I previously owned a Hyundai. I donated it to our chuch after driving it for 114,000 miles. It got some very minor repairs and ran for another 50,000 that I know of. It may still be on the road. |
2005 | 4dr SUV 200-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
I also own a 2004 Sonata and was impressed with its reliability. |

Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
2013 | 4dr SUV 290-horsepower 3.3L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
There is nothing I DON'T like about this vehicle. What I least like is how people still have a stigma about the Hyundai brand when they've never taken the time to test drive one. Hyundai's have the best customer satisfaction as well as repeat customer "index" of all the brands out there and for good reason. |
2008 | 4dr SUV 185-horsepower 2.7L V6 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Quick depreciation; still known as a "Korean" company that is behind Japan, Europe and USA in quality though reputation and word of mouth improving in past few years and part of the reasons why I purchased the Santa Fe |

20 Minute Ginger-Garlic Chicken
Submitted by: CHEF_MEGIntroduction
This dish is perfect for busy nights. This dish is perfect for busy nights.Ingredients
1/4 cup Chef Meg's Favorite Ginger-Garlic Sauce
1 pound (16 ounces) boneless, skinless chicken breasts, visible fat removed
2 cups cooked brown rice
4 cups steamed vegetables (your choice)
I marinade the chicken in the morning, grill it at night, and serve it with steamed or frozen vegetables and brown rice that I cook on nights when I have more time.
Swap the chicken for tofu or lean beef.
If you don't have a grill, roast the chicken at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for about 20-25 minutes, depending on the thickness of the chicken.
Remove the meat from the marinade, and discard any leftover marinade. Grill until internal temperature reaches 165 degrees, about 15 minutes, flipping halfway through.
Serve with a half cup of brown rice and one cup of vegetables, plus more sauce if desired.
Makes four servings, 3 ounces of cooked chicken per person.
Sooo simple yet so good. This is one of those recipes for a quick night meal. If you don't have a grill try using the oven. Roast the chicken at 375 for about 20-25 mintues, depending on the thickness of the chicken.

Member Ratings For This Recipe
Made this for one, so I scaled down the chicken portion, but made the marinade per the recipe and have put it in the freezer for future use. Just pop out a 1/8 cup portion, thaw and baste away. Chicken is a 24-hour marinate. I have also used this marinade on salmon, as a grilling sauce. Both good! - 4/3/12
I marinated this for 8 hours and it was wonderful. We grilled it on the charcoal grill and we all just loved it. I actually used chicken thighs rather than the chicken breast because that it what my husband likes. You could use a combination of meat. I could see the marinade good on pork and sal - 4/28/13

Hello, there!
Beautiful patterns, really but Iam stuck in row 3. I do not understand
at which point the increasings are made so that I come to 210 stitches.
Could you please try to explain?
And another thing. How do you suggest to increase 6 stitches evenly in first ten rows so that they are not very visible?
Thank you very much.
Thanks so much for leaving me a comment! I love hearing what you have to say. I do my best to answer questions right here in the comments, so if you ask a question, be sure to check back because the answer might be here waiting for you!

While some say that "nothing is said which has not been said before" (Terence)
or "about the most originality that any writer can hope to achieve honestly is to steal with good judgment" (Josh Billings) or even that "it's not exactly plagiarism, it's falling in love with good language and trying to imitate it" (Charles Kuralt), your professors may stand to disagree…
Keeping that in mind as you begin your fall semester, whether newbie 1L or a 3L on the final push, take a gander at this video – created by the University of Bergen Library in Norway – and learn exactly what happens when you choose to plagiarize.
Be sure to click the "cc" button to turn the English subtitles on – unless you happen to be fluent in Norwegian… Video quality is astounding, including plagiarism SWAT teams, giant robots destroying the city and a massive song and dance number staged in the library with a full marching band and cheer squad, so take a few minutes and enjoy this foreign film break – with or without popcorn.
And many thanks to Lyn Batty, one of our Reference Librarians, for passing along this video to me. Yes, I just avoided plagiarizing my plagiarism blog post idea.

'Songbird' flies from Paris to Langley
By REBECCA OLSON
South Whidbey Record Reporter
January 15, 2013 · Updated 2:40 PM
As she nears death, iconic French singer Edith Piaf reincarnates the ghosts of her past, sharing with the audience a forceful, romantic journey through her life accompanied by her heartrending songs in "The Songbird of Paris, Edith Piaf," showing for one weekend only.
The mostly one-woman play was written and directed by Martha Furey and stars Joni Takanikos as Piaf, with Takanikos' son, Max Cole-Takanikos, playing the second part.
There will be three shows: 7:30 p.m. Friday and Saturday, Jan. 18 and 19, and 2 p.m. Sunday, Jan. 20 on the Martha Murphy Main Stage in the Porter Building, located at 222 Anthes Ave., Langley.
"The Songbird of Paris" is returning from a five-week run at the Berkeley Marsh Theatre in California. Before that, they performed the show in Ireland. They also performed for Langley in November 2011 but Takanikos said the play has been expanded since then.
"We had full houses and people really loved it," Takanikos said of the performances at the Berkeley Marsh Theatre. The show's next stop may be on a stage in New York City.
Furey has written a number of one-woman shows and performed a few at the Fringe Festival in Scotland very successfully, Takanikos said.
"She's really good. When she wrote this play, she knew she needed to find someone to do it," Takanikos said, adding that there's a lot of singing in the play. "I'm fortunate she asked me to do it."
Rising from the streets
Piaf lived from 1915 to 1963. She was born into a life on the streets and her parents abandoned her at an early age. Later, she performed with her father in acrobatic street performances before a nightclub owner discovered her and launched her into a singing career.
"She's quite a character to take on, and not just a character, she was an amazing real-life person. She rose from the streets," Takanikos said. "It's a really grand story of where our life can take us. So I like taking this kind of archetypal story into my blood and bones, so to speak."
"She also has a very unique way of singing and I knew I couldn't imitate her in any way," Takanikos said. To get into character, Takanikos drew inspiration from Furey's work. When she performs, Furey doesn't copy the person; she does an honest portrayal of the emotions and events in their lives, Takanikos said, adding that a lot of research goes into Furey's plays, many of which trace the lives of world-renowned people.
"If Edith was here to tell her story, she would touch on these points that Martha pulled from her life," Takanikos said.
"It's really helped me grow as a singer more than anything, taking on a great singer," Takanikos continued. Five years ago, she had said she'd like to learn a couple of songs in French.
"I never knew it would lead to this challenge," Takanikos laughed.
While she has done a number of local plays, Takanikos said she never considered herself to be an actress before now.
Takanikos and Furey wanted to bring the show back to Whidbey Island again after they added another song and more dialogue.
"I just wanted to do it one more time here on the island so people who didn't get to see it can see it," Takanikos said.
Tickets cost $12 and can be purchased in advance at Eddy's on First Street in Langley or at the door; cash or check are accepted. For more information, call 221-2357.

SOURCE: Dr. G's Weight Loss of Plantation
Dr. G's Weight Loss & Wellness of Plantation helps Dr. Sassani's patients at Take Shape Plastic Surgery, P.A., to lose weight before procedures. Call Dr. G's Weight Loss & Wellness at 954-423-1495 to schedule a free consultation to obtain your goal weight before your plastic surgery at Take Shape Plastic Surgery, P.A.
Plantation, FL (PRWEB) April 30, 2012
Dr. G's Weight Loss & Wellness has become the premier weight loss solution for plastic surgeons across South Florida. Dr. G's Weight Loss & Wellness of Plantation has teamed up with Dr. Sassani, owner of Take Shape Plastic Surgery, P.A., to offer a safe and effective weight loss program to patients who must lose weight prior to undergoing certain procedures. Many people walk into plastic surgery offices expecting to have excess weight removed via liposuction, tummy tucks and arm lifts. However, it is not uncommon for the plastic surgeon to direct them to lose weight before the surgery in order for the procedure to be performed properly. Often, patients leave with the best of intentions for losing the weight, but never return because they are unable to reach their goal weight. Some patients lose weight and then gain it back again after using ineffective dieting plans that either lose weight too quickly or use methods that are unsustainable for the long-term.
This is where Dr. G's Weight Loss & Wellness comes in, an effective weight loss solution over for the last 18 years. Dr. G's Weight Loss & Wellness is a doctor-supervised program that enables patients to lose approximately 7-10 lbs per month. This amount of weight loss isn't too fast or too slow. Dr. G's program helps patients lose 2-3 pounds per week allowing the patient to safely and effectively reach their goal weight in a healthy and timely manner.
"We want patients to lose a safe amount of weight in a reasonable period of time, so they can have their desired procedure," stated Valery Adkins, owner of Dr. G's in Plantation.
Take Shape Plastic Surgery, P.A. is approximately 10 minutes from Dr. G's Weight Loss & Wellness clinic in Plantation, Florida. The two clinics are very complimentary to each other. Dr. Sassani is the Medical Director at Take Shape Plastic Surgery, P.A. He has been Board Certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery, since November 1997. He is university-trained in Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery and has additional specialized fellowship training.
After graduating with Highest Honors from Rutgers University, Dr. Sassani obtained his medical degree from the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey, where he was elected to the Alpha Omega Alpha Honor Society. His residency training in General Surgery and Plastic Surgery was at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia. He then went on to complete post-residency fellowships. These included a Hand Surgery Fellowship at the University of Pennsylvania, a Craniomaxillofacial Surgery Fellowship at the University of Miami, and a Cosmetic Surgery Fellowship with the renowned doctors. Baker, Gordon and Stuzin in Miami.
Dr. Sassani's particular areas of interest and expertise are cosmetic surgery of the face, plastic surgery of the breast (enlargement, reduction and reconstruction), body contour surgery (liposuction and tummy tucks) and laser skin resurfacing. His reconstructive interests and expertise include reconstruction after facial trauma, reconstruction after cancer surgery, burn reconstruction, and hand surgery.
Whether the patients' consultation is for a non-surgical treatment, like Botox, Juvederm, Radiesse, Sculptra, ASCLERA, or PIXEL Laser, or a more involved cosmetic or reconstructive procedure, they can be assured that Dr. Sassani and his team posses the skills, the training, and the aesthetic eye to ensure the desired cosmetic result becomes a reality. They also welcome visits to their Medicare-certified, state licensed, nationally accredited, ambulatory surgical center located at 4161 NW 5th Street, Suite 100, Fort Lauderdale, FL 33317. Call 954-585-3800 to schedule a consultation and tour of the facility.

Roxie was trying on costumes this morning in preparation for the Garden Factory Doggie Dress-up Day this Monday. We decided to snap a quick picture of her newest Scarecrow outfit on this beautiful sunny October day in Rochester, NY. Roxie is my sweet little buddy...we are never far apart from each other. She decided on the scarecrow outfit because while she is as smart as she is cute....she can be a little scatter-brained and easily distracted (kinda like her Mom). Thanks and Happy Fall!! - Sue

Um, when I find it a struggle to come up with a 7-9 complication, I look beyond the mechanics. Most of the posts here have been about what constitutes a 'hard move': losing HP, attacking wandering monsters, losing stuff etc...
But what about your story? Ask
the Paladin is laying on hands. Would he really simply heal his companion simply because they are wounded and in the same 'party'? What are your ethics on laying on hands? What would your God(dess) feel about you healing that recalcitrant thief? Or heretical Wizard? If its good enough for them, then surely you are ethically binding yourself to laying on hands to every poor downtrodden and hurt NPC that crosses your path....
Where is the line you will not cross, and if you had to choose, what would the cost be to you?
Remember to adress the characters not the players and couch the questions deeply within the context of the scene. Works for me, and inevitably draws the narrative away from repetative, boring or spamming moves.

noofy, how do you pose that question? Like, an example would help as I'm having a hard time you thinking about what that move looks like in play.
Also, those are tough questions to ask if someone is repeatedly laying on hands like 10+ times a session.

For the Paladin's
lay on hands
move, I definitely think the problem is in the wording of the power. I think (like the Angel's
healing touch
) there needs to be a built in direction for the MC to run in.
There's also the potential to drop the healing part and just use it as a curative condition remover. So, it rids people of illness, disease, conditions and whatnot.
When you
lay your hands skin-to-skin on an inflicted person
and ask your deity to cure them, roll+Cha. On a 10+, they are miraculously cured. On a 7-9, they are cured, but you see into their heart and your deity reveals their darkest sin. On a miss, your deity can cure them, but only if you take on the affliction instead.
Er, or something like that.
But, I guess what "inflicted" means is up to the particular god. ;)
Another consideration is not tying this to Charisma, but to Deeds or some other mechanic. Maybe, something like the "hunger" of a Hoarder's hoard.
What does your God demand of you? Maybe when you call on the god it gets "hungrier" and wants you to perform deeds for it?

Michael, you are on to something there. The move is definitely a little broken, as worded.
Adam and I were thinking something like this: When you lay on hands, roll+Cha. On a 10+, you heal them X or remove a disease of lower level. On a 7-9, as 10+, but you or the target (your choice) are filled with a surplus of divine energy, take -1 Forward, and are visibly marked by your deity until... (maybe sleep, make camp, atone, etc. we didn't have a solid solution).
I actually really like your solution. I'll have to think on this more.
Also, it's interesting that no one has been as concerned about Cleric healing, despite it being similar. I think Adam and I have some ideas on that as well, but I'm interested in hearing people's thoughts on Cleric healing.
To my mind it has much the same problem: the 7-9 result can basically mean "just do it again" if you choose half effect. So we're thinking of ditching the "spell has half effect" option. That way whatever you do has Consequences. We might replace it with something like "A tiny fraction of your deity's true majesty is revealed to you, take -1 Forward as you sort it out."

as far as cleric healing goes, there is at least some direct downfalls for it. while i agree that if you roll 7-9 chances are you are going to talk the 1/2 power option, but there are situations where you cannot settle for that. also if the roll is failed outright it is easier for the MC to say "oops you lost your spell" because it is a downside listed.
i think the issue with lay hands is there is no listed downsides for not rolling well.
(i do think that taking the 1/2 potency option out is a good idea. but it does have issues. a level 1 wizard has like 5hp and if they bork their roll they can either get hit and quite probably die or lose their only spell... gheh, ive talked myself into a circle again... i dont know)

That's a good point about taking an attack being a bit deal for a wizard.
I've already been thinking that maybe that option could be phrased differently. More like the GM "put them in a spot" move. That way it can also be used when there isn't an enemy already around: maybe one shows up, drawn by the magical energy. Or maybe the spell gives away the characters' location, plans, or intentions. Or maybe it's not even a monster.
Losing a spell sucks, but they're not first level for long, and they're still good at spouting lore.
Even with the newly rebalanced damage, taking a hit once isn't the end of the world. It's dangerous, but probably not deadly.
And we've been considering increasing spells prepared to two. I'm not sure about this one, since it makes it harder to progress. By the time the wizard's gained a few levels, they're fine, we don't want to add another prepared spell at every level.

Total spell levels equal to your spell stat bonus or effective level, whichever is higher? Gives low level chars a bonus that fades with time.

It still has a plateau effect that I don't like. You bonus will probably be +2 until about 3rd level, so going from first to second level doesn't make much of a spellcasting difference. Then you hit level 3 and get access to 3rd level spells and can prepare 3 levels of spells.

Hey gang,
I lreally really ike Michael's narrative cue's written into the move results. I do this anyway, but if it's there, on the page, it encourages the group to step out side the mechanics.
Also, I instinctively use the 'let it ride rule' from BW all the time in all my games. Effectively removes the spamming stuff and forces the players to narrative a drastic change into the encounter to re-roll the move.

one idea that might work with spamming spells is to make taking the half potency option a little harsher. maybe tack on a -1 forward (or even ongoing to spellcasting... hmmm interesting idea*) to it. this removes it from being the obvious choice in all but rare circumstances.
the line of thought i see now is, "hmm not a 10+... well ill just try again next turn." by taking half potency the spell caster loses nothing! the only way i see this not being a good option is if you really need that cure spell to go off at full force or your teammate is going to die or you are 99.999% sure this magic missile will kill that kobold.
* i actually kinda like this one a lot the more i think about it! heck even drop the 1/2 potency from it! every time the spell caster chooses this option they take a cumulative -1 to spell casting ongoing until they rest! this gives them an option with not immediate drawback (they dont get hit and they keep the spell) but it is not an option they can take every single time as it will eventually completely gimp their ability to cast spells at all. i dont see taking this option once as being too bad, but after two or three times the caster is going to have to start dropping spells or taking hits (and its a slippery slope, god i love slippery slopes!)
this would force them to take the third option when trying to spam heal the group after a fight and the MC could use that to interject a new interesting situation.

-1 Ongoing until you prepare spells/dutifully pray actually seems pretty sweet, representing maybe your deity's displeasure, or the order of the universe fighting back against your will. It means that your first 7-9, even if you only had a +2 to start with, isn't a big deal. Take a -1 Ongoing and get on with it. The next time, though... now it's a tough choice. Looking at the math, even going to a 0 overall is still not a killer penalty. Tough, yes, but not killer. If you ever get to -1 though... probably time to stop casting.
It also means that getting that +3 in your spellcasting stat is a big deal. Not only are you less likely to have to deal with the 7-9 result, but getting one 7-9 isn't much of a problem at all. You can just choose to go to a +2 overall, which is still very practical.
And of course having someone defending you makes the whole thing easier: just take an attack and let the defender deal with it.

what is your wost grenade death?
Like (0)
I'm pretty sure I got caught by a heat seeking grenade last night,
my opponent threw the grenade threw a window it it bouced off a wall followed me down the stairs and pow I ended up will body parts in china lol whats your experience.
a while back i cooked a gernade, then when i threw it, it some how bounced back in mid air and killed me... replayed the video and it bounced of a telephone wire and right back at me.. that was a piss off..
The almost quad ruined by a heatseeking martyrdom
got to love those death streaks lol
I get caught on occasion when rushing as well.
lmao, i rage all the time when that happens, i always notice a pattern to, the grenade always rolls towards me.
I am bad about throwing Semtex as I am about to run through a door.... Only to have it stick to the door frame and blow me up as I run past it.
Remember one time in MW2, I got killed when I had Matyrdom, respawned on top of my own Martyrdom, and it killed me.
never had that happen, now that's what you call bad luck.
how about getting killed while using martyrdom, spawning and dieing repeatly because a teammate is there and you are stuck in a never ending death
never seen that but wold like too lol
Gotta hate when you die from ones that can phase through walls, literally.

Perfect for TBI patient
Review by: chris -
Fit Durability Style Value 4 years ago I suffered a severe traumatic brain injury. I am now very sensitive to light and my the muscles in my head are very sensitive to touch and muscle stress/strain. These glasses are a life changer. While I would love them to be darker, or even capable of adjusting to light levels, they decrease my migraines because of three design features.
Titanium frames without hinges
Non-slip nose piece
Extremely clear lenses
Being so light means my facial muscles don't adjust to hold them in place.
The lack of hinges mean that I don't have to adjust anything to prevent squeezing my head causing pain and headaches. Spring loaded hinges cause the frames to squeeze my head muscles. Since I don't adjust anything and these are so consistent in returning to shape, I don't need to make adjustments that inevitably contort my lenses which skew my already hard to control vision causing my vertigo to flare up or confusion and mental strain.
The non-slip nose piece keeps my glasses right where they belong without my head/face muscles straining to keep them in place. I don't have clean them when I'm hot or sweaty so I can focus on keeping safe with the world moving around me.
With all the difficulties and struggles I already have trying to live with the long term impacts of a severe TBI, the glasses seriously changed my life for the better. While they are the most expensive glasses I have ever purchased, I would buy them again. I strongly recommend these to anyone that is looking for a light weight form fitting pair of sunglasses that stay in place without strain.
For anybody that wonders how much physical/muscular work could possibly be needed to wear glasses, all I can say is that you'd be surprised if your face and head muscles were as sensitive as mine. Maui Jim made an excellent product. I'd be happy to buy another pair with a different color that I could use inside or at work to help with the white lighting.
For anyone struggling with a TBI, these are perfect for you. These should be provide to every severe TBI sufferer with a bleak long term success prognosis. It took me 4 years to find them and wish I found them sooner.
Mahalo Maui Jim, these are ono glasses!(Posted on 5/16/13)
A good wear
Review by: Carbon-based -
Style Value Fit Durability Put them on and forget they're there. You don't have to keep pushing them up; they are so lightweight they basically settle into your head and become part of you. Great for sailing or hiking. And they look good on me and my girlfriend both--which is definitely a first for sunglasses (or anything else, for that matter). I don't think anybody would do badly with a pair of these.

Another awesome pair of glasses
Review by: Ronnie -
Style Value Fit Durability 4th pair of titanium MJ's for me in the last 12 years, two lost or stolen, and one damaged (which MJ helped when I got them to replace the lenses on). I have never found anything as light, comfortable, and good looking as MJs, and each new model I like as much if not more than the previous. I'd like to pay less, but, they're worth paying more for! Hopefully, I'll get a few years before losing these ones.

very very nice !
Review by: fwp -
Style Value Fit Durability bought these after I purchased a similar pair of MJ's and discovered that the wire nose bridge and lens attach points in general were "breaking points"---so i returned and bought NAKALELE! This decision I have no regrets at all about! great clarity and protection.
THE MAIN REASON I chose this style was the improved lens and nose bridge attach design.The glasses have a very "beefed up"design and not the flimsy wire attach points that can break.(Posted on 3/12/13)
First Pair and awesome
Review by: Saleem -
Value Fit Durability Style Its my first pair, i have ever purchased from Maui, and when i went to shop, it was the only one who caught my attention - a perfect fit on the head, Calm and yeah yet to experience about its other characteristics - and Got a sports version too, haven't tried yet - but that looks great too.

Won't wear anything else
Review by: Dean -
Fit Durability Style Value I'm on my fourth pair of these in the past twelve years. One pair I crushed underfoot when they fell from my car in the pitch dark, and one pair ended up getting cracked when the canvas clam-shell case they came with got crushed with my luggage on a flight in Africa. The first pair eventually cracked when I fell asleep with them on and rolled over. For comfort, a superb lens, and the lightest weight sunglasses you'll ever wear--as well as a superb fit for any size of head or face, you won't find anything better. The instant my flight landed, I was in a Maui Jim distributor's shop on the airport concourse--and snapped up another pair. The clam shell cases could be better made, as they fall apart while the sunglasses themselves endure. Flatter just about any face shape, too.

Fit Durability Style Value If you love Maui Jim's these are the best. I just upgraded from my mj sports and am in love. It's a windy day on Maui right now and these are perfect for all weather conditions. I'm getting used to putting them around my neck when I have to take them off. Lightweight comfortable stylish!

Review by: Henk -
Fit Durability Style Value The style, fit and protection/coverage is amazing on this particular model. This model fits narrow shaped head sizes better than the other two. They are so light, yet fit comfortably and stay on even with strong wind. The make is stylish and classy, not too sporty, and suitable for all occasions.

Leo: "The List"
There will be plenty of competition for the Tribe's 25-man roster when players report to Goodyear, Arizona next month. Anyone given an invitation to major league camp will use the spacious clubhouse and play in Cactus League games at 10,000-seat Goodyear Ballpark. Those not on the list will be relegated to the smaller lockers and will spend their time on the back fields behind the Player Development Complex, with very few eyes watching.
The question will be "Who is on the list?"
The list of non 40-man roster invitees to camp continues to grow with the recent signing of LHP Chris Seddon.
Seddon, 28, spent the last three seasons with the Seattle Mariners organization, pitching mostly with Triple-A Tacoma. Seddon has started 250 of his 266 appearances in the minors, posting a 4.64 ERA. He has pitched in the majors with Florida (2007) and Seattle (2010), totaling 17 games (4 starts). Seddon has a 7.03 ERA in the bigs.
Seddon joins RHP Robinson Tejeda, catchers Luke Carlin, Matt Pagnozzi, Michel Hernandez, infielders Andy LaRoche, Jose Lopez, and outfielder Felix Pie as non-roster invitees to Indians camp. Several others will be added, from inside and outside the organization.
Many of the players that open the season in Columbus will spend some time in major league camp. For younger players, it's a great opportunity to be around the veterans that know the game at its highest level. For minor league journeymen, it's another opportunity to get to "The Show".
* The Indians have re-signed INF Argenis Reyes to a minor league contract. Reyes, 29, has been part of Clippers championships the last two seasons. Reyes was signed originally by Cleveland in 2001 and has bounced around quite a bit. Last season he started in the independent Can-Am League, but was re-signed on July 31st and re-joined Columbus. Reyes has won six championships in the minors, which is why he's holding up six fingers in the team's championship photo. Reyes is a versatile player and is great in the clubhouse, which is why Mike Sarbaugh likes him so much. Plus, he's either really lucky or a proven winner.
* James Quinlan was named the Clippers new athletic trainer, replacing Michael Salazar upon his promotion to Cleveland's staff. Quinlan has spent the last four seasons as the club's rehab coordinator.
* More former Clippers have signed contracts for this season: Wil Nieves (Rockies), Ryan Langerhans (Angels), Nick Green (Marlins), R.J. Swindle (Cardinals), Yohan Pino (re-signed with Blue Jays).
* There are 85 days left until Opening Day at Huntington Park! Season tickets, partial plans, mini-plans, and single game tickets are all available. Check out the schedule!
*Check out the Clippers on Twitter, Facebook, Google +, and Tumblr!
