It's summer: Where's the child care?
Providing child care for kids after school lets out and before summer programs begin is a difficult and expensive proposition for working parents.
MP Dunleavey calls it the "camp gap": the period between the end of school and the start of summer camp for school-age kids whose parents work. What are parents supposed to do with their kids during that time?
You can't just plunk them down in day care for a week or two. It doesn't work like that.
In her case, the camp gap is nine work days. "I figured there would be a program or a playgroup that would offer some coverage during those working days," MP, who's facing this particular child care dilemma for the first time, wrote in a post at DailyWorth, where the former MSN Money columnist now resides online.
"Um, no."
MP added, "It's emblematic of an issue that dogs us all: insufficient, overpriced, erratic child care choices for working families."
What affordable possibilities exist? MP asked her readers for their thoughts, and did they deliver. Among their comments:
- It's a year-round problem -- winter break, spring break, miscellaneous school days off -- and it wreaks havoc on working families. "The lack of good quality child care in this nation is appalling and deeply damages the quality and productivity of this nation's workforce," reader Shera wrote.
- Employers often aren't accommodating. Kids really don't belong in the workplace -- "It irks me no end when folks bring their noisy kids into work …," wrote Linda, who is single and childless -- and bosses aren't uniformly tolerant of parental scheduling needs.
- Co-workers aren't always sympathetic, including single, childless (or "child-free," as one reader said) workers who feel they have to cover every time parents take time off for their kids' activities. "Gee, you have to figure out nine whole days with your own spawn," Lisa wrote. "Well, get over it. Maybe you should have thought about, oh, I don't know, having to take care of a kid before having one."
- Parents might have to switch to lower-paying jobs or work part time. "I had to exchange my salaried situation for hourly in order to meet my daughter's schedule," said Michele.
- There's profit potential here. "Seems that developing full-day interim child care programs would be a great moneymaker!" Corrie wrote. Post continues after video.
Some possible solutions emerged to handle the camp gap:
- Take your vacation from work during that time. That takes care of two or three weeks. But there could be another gap after camp ends and before school starts again.
- Rotate baby sitters. One reader pays two teens, who alternate days to prevent burnout. Another said, "Our solution is to share a high school baby sitter (actually two sisters who fill in for each other) with two other families."
- Pay a friend who is a stay-at-home parent. (And don't be cheap about it.)
- Organize parents and collectively ask the YMCA or some other child-focused organization to set up a summer-long program for kids.
- Why not have year-round school, with after-care? Isn't this change overdue? In many parts of the country, two incomes are required to cover the basics, including saving for retirement and an emergency fund.
The best all-round advice came from reader "jburne":
Be proactive. Find another parent or two who can take your kids one day and take theirs another. Find a college student to help out or use a fill-in on-call nanny service. Work from home for as much of the time as you can if you're unsure how your kids will take to a new face. Having an activity for a new sitter to do with a friend and their kids helps ease the transition. Always keep a stable of readily available sitters/family members/friends available to make these surprise days less painful. Most importantly: Be prepared. When you're caught off guard it's feels more stressful than when you've anticipated the change and planned for it successfully.

Businesses Support Public Schools
The New Helping-Hands Equation: Money + Volunteers x Expertise – Red Tape = Smarter/Motivated Students
(page 1 of 2)
Photo: Ryan Siphers
The new track at Lahainaluna High School on Maui, along with the field and turf, have been made possible because of millions of dollars worth of in-kind and cash donations by Maui businesses and residents. Additional changes are coming in the future.
Athletic facilities at Lahainaluna High School, Hawaii's oldest public school, were so inadequate that track athletes had to leave the West Maui campus and train in Wailuku. And an inordinate number of students were getting injured.
The state was unable to pay for a new outdoor stadium and facility, so individuals and businesses stepped up. Part-time resident Sue Cooley started the ball rolling by pledging donations that have now totaled more than $4 million. Hawaiian Dredging prepared the site with more than $50,000 worth of work. Maui Westin Resort and Spa offered a $300,000 package of rooms to house the workers from Texas who installed the turf, although the full amount wasn't needed. Dozens of others also chipped in.

"Without the support of local businesses, it wouldn't be the same," says Jeff Rogers, development coordinator for the Lahainaluna Foundation, which has raised more than $5 million for the school since the foundation's birth in 2002.
Various versions of that generosity are taking place all over the state as businesses donate money, workers and volunteers to help public schools and their students.
It's impossible to add up all the donations, but the results can be seen in painted schools, new playgrounds, renovated classrooms and science labs, landscaping, and donated books. Volunteers read to children and school supplies are given to youngsters who can't afford them. And much of it is done without public money or even much public notice.
The state Department of Education tracks donations amounting to $500 or more – those have totalled $25.19 million statewide since 2000 – but that's only the tip of the iceberg, says DOE official Judy Nagasako.
Walter Lott, Honolulu Walmart store manager, poses with
"Many companies have always given donations to schools to help them. But, increasingly, they're coupling their philanthropy with company volunteers. They're encouraging employees – even rewarding them – for taking an active role in volunteerism. That's the trend," says Nagasako, the department's education specialist for corporate and community partnerships.
The DOE encourages schools that have strong alumni bases to create private foundations and Lahainaluna, McKinley, Roosevelt, and Farrington high school alumni have each set up foundations. Help also comes from alumni associations – often lead by graduates who have become business leaders in the community. Take Roosevelt High, for example.
"Our robotics club is going off to an international competition, and the alumni association donated $5,000 to help with the robots and travel costs," says Roosevelt principal Ann Mahi. "As well, Dwayne Nasu, president of Acme Fender & Paint Shop, a 1969 grad, made a personal donation of $5,000 to help. They're all looking at the broader picture of supporting student achievement."
A few months ago, Walmart gave $100,000 to the Public Schools of Hawaii Foundation. It was a big gift for the 25-year-old foundation, which expects to raise no more than $200,000 to $300,000 a year, mostly from a fundraising dinner at which Hawaii businesspeople buy tables.

Walmart's donation allowed the foundation to allocate $250,000 to transform an existing classroom at Roosevelt into a modern science lab. It will be completed before the end of this school year. The foundation also plans to spend another $75,000 for professional development for science teachers.
The donation came because of a vote by the Walmart employees, says Nolan Kawano, executive director of the public schools foundation. "Walmart has a choice program and they informed us last year we were nominated. We went up against several nonprofits (for the funding) and the winner was chosen by a direct vote of their employees."
Stephen Schatz, district superintendent for the Roosevelt complex of schools, welcomed the project. "If we want to prepare our students to be globally competitive, they need top-notch, state-of-the-art facilities."
It will take an estimated $27 million to renovate and update all the science labs in the state's 46 high schools, and the state is unlikely to finance all those improvements soon. That makes the business/school partnership crucial.
"We can't do it alone," says Schatz. "We need financial assistance to get work done. Working with businesses allows us to be a little more nimble with our resources."
When the money comes from a foundation – not through official DOE channels – the work can proceed far more quickly, even though the department must still approve plans, he says.
"It just couldn't happen this quickly if we were going through the typical repair cycle. There's no way that, in nine months, you'd get a big project like this accomplished."
The public schools foundation helps in other ways. For instance, it spends as much as $300,000 a year on an average of 70 "Good Idea Grants" for teacher projects, which range from $1,000 to $3,000 each.
Help for Hawaii's public schools comes in many forms: It's not unusual to find Hagadone Printing Co. employees reading to students at Puuhale Elementary in Kalihi. Or Deloitte accountants spending a Saturday cleaning a schoolyard. Or the electric company setting up summer internships for high school and college students.
"This makes sense to support our schools," says Faye Chiogioji, manager of workforce services for Hawaiian Electric Co. "It's good business, too – to develop the workforce with the skills we need."
Employees from the Old Lahaina Luau collect and deliver truckloads of school supplies to Maui schools every year. "Last year, we did something different: We called the schools on the west side and asked what were the top five supplies they needed and we made up our own kits," says Julie Yonayama, director of employee and community relations.
"We had 387 boxes of pencils, 387 reams of copy paper, 387 rolls of paper towels, 1,935 composition books and 1,935 portfolios. Mainly our goal is to donate to several schools. Those are our future employees."
"You think of the long term," says Ian Kitajima, spokesman for Oceanit, a high-technology company that coaches robotics teams and mentors students in science projects. The Public School Foundation recently honored the company.
"In 20 years, it (technology) is really going to be changing Hawaii. When you see what kids can do, you just feel like, 'Wow, they're really good.' And you know you just have to help," says Kitajima. "It's kind of like our farm team for baseball. We're building up our talent for the future."
On average, 50 Oceanit employees mentor in the schools every year, averaging 40 hours per month. "A lot of this is driven by our people. They want to do it," says Kitajima. "Essentially, we've adopted Maemae Elementary School – or they've adopted us – and we've been working with the teachers there."
Oceanit's total reach annually: more than 400 students, not counting the 20,000 households watching "Weird Science with Dr. V" every week. To date, Oceanit has produced 150 of the science shows that have aired on Hawaii News Now.
In its 26-year history, Oceanit has sponsored more than 250 summer internships, primarily for college students who work with company engineers on real projects.
"A lot of us went to public school," says Kitajima, "so we're always trying to figure out how can we help. And you help as many kids as you can because one of those kids may come up with the cure for cancer. Or the key for alternative energy or global warming.
"When we first got into robotics I was skeptical, because we don't do it at Oceanit. Then I realized it wasn't about robotics. We're not building robots. We're building future leaders. It's just a metaphor for building thoughtful young people who will lead us into the future."

Shaw's Original Fireclay Sink
Maxwell's Daily Find 05.17.13
Shaw's Original Fireclay Sink
• from $1,075
• Amazon.com
Ok, this is aspirational, but what a lovely sink! I took this pic at a friend's house and then traced it to an English factory that sells through a bunch of shops in the US (now Amazon too). I have never been a big sink person before, but I really like the soft edges, large size and warm feeling of this ("biscuit" is the color), which is made of "fireclay" - not enamel on iron - so that it is much tougher and is acid/alkali resistant. And they're handmade in Darwen, England since 1897. The bowls come in all sorts of different sizes, so whether you've got a mansion or just a small place you want to feel like one, this is the end of your search.
4 Comments
I like too! Just wish I could afford...or win one on here...
I have this identical sink in my kitchen. I can't take credit for it. My sellers had completely done over the kitchen and had gone high end to compensate for the tiny space. The kitchen was the main selling point, and the sink is what everyone comments on. It is a dream come true. Until I read this article, I didn't realize how well made it was. Built to last, much more than just a pretty face!
I have a fireclay sink we imported from the manufacturer in Britain. One caveat about them is that they are more fragile than other kinds of sinks. - Someone dropped a cast iron pan on the edge of mine and there's a chip out of it now.
I still love it, though.
Any idea who makes that faucet? I totally heart it!

Welcome to the updated tallwomen.org
Since the update I have decided to focus more on the sections of main importance to you tall ladies. Namely the Clothing and Footwear sections. Please note that the horizontal menus have submenus. Hover your mouse over the menu item and you will see. (Please use the "Help" section as well).
I know this may disappoint some of the male visitors to this website, but so be it. I need to make it clear (again): This website is dedicated to tall women, not their admirers. If you still happen to find it enjoyable - even better.
So you think you are tall? Possibly. You are unique but you are NOT alone.
Sadly three of the tallest women have died not too long ago. Did you know that De-Fen Yao was 7'9", that Sandy Allen was 7'7 1/4" and that Margo Dydek was 7'2"?
Lindsay Kay Hayward is 6'8 1/4" and officially "The World's Tallest Actress". Then there are Basketball Superstar and Olympic Gold Medal Winner Candace Parker (6'4") and Olympic Silver Medal Winner and overall doll Kimberly Glass (6'2 1/2").
Did you know that Brigitte Nielsen is 6'1", that Taylor Swift, Jordin Sparks and Ayla Brown are 6'0" each? They're celebrities? Well, yeah - but you don't have to be famous to be beautiful and life doesn't end at 5'7".
Tall women are gorgeous and are great role-models for tall girls. A lot of women go to great lengths in order to stand out. You don't have to. You are outstanding as you are and you don't need a pedastal to stand on.
My 6'7" friend Erika has some advice for tall girls. Meet 6'1" Allysun, the Tall Woman of the Month for September of 2014 plus 6'3" Jheri reviews the books "Short: Walking Tall When You're Not Tall At All" and "Don't Let Bullies Ruin Your Life".
If you are looking for clothing for tall ladies visit the Clothing sections. There is plenty of choice out there these days. No comparison to the late 1990s when this website was still being developed. Companies like Talltique, Long Tall Sally US, Long Elegant Legs, PZI Jeans, Buckle, Alloy, Torrid, Metrostyle, Lucky Brand Jeans or New York & Company cater to tall women. Their pants have extra long inseams and their tops have extra long sleeves.
As you can see we are focusing on companies that cater to women with large feet. That's why we have the Footwear sections. If you click a link and can't find footwear in at least US size 11 let me know. I will remove the link. For the best selection in shoes in large sizes check out Barefoot Tess, Samantá Shoes, Zappos, Shoes.com, Shoeline, Shoebuy or ShoeMetro. They are all US companies but they ship internationally. Amazon.com also sell women's shoes in up to US size 16.
I have kept asking my tall lady friends what they were looking for first and foremost. The answers were "cute pants and shoes" and "help with my self-image". I like to think we have achieved a lot over the years. As a matter of fact I know we have because of your feedback. Without your contributions this website wouldn't be possible. So THANK YOU!
If you are looking to date a tall person there is Tallfriends.com. They come highly recommended.

After Tuesday's results, I kind of expected a Wednesday superdelegate flood to Barack Obama. It didn't really materialize, though he did pick up some ground. And Thursday was the same way. And now looking at my inbox, it seems like more of the same as Rep. Peter DeFazio endorses Obama while Rep. Donald Payne switches from Clinton to Obama. Stuff on this scale doesn't — and can't — lead to a knockout blow, it's more of a death by a thousand cuts thing with the handful of superdelegate defections being especially damaging.

Chuckie & Gregori Klosman – Numb3rs (Preview) [Big Beat Records]
Posted in Uncategorized by Zander on May 5, 2012
Chuckie & Gregori Klosman have released a preview of their upcoming single Numb3rs. Always looking forward to the dirtiest Dutch house, it would seem that Numb3rs is going to be more Wild One Two than Bang it All. Clean synthesizers and punched chords on the piano may scream "Sweden", but the snare-fueled build and twerked synth after the drop are pure Dutch. Enjoy: Preview:...

Viet Nam Adoptive Family Interviews – Final Words
Viet Nam Adoptive Family Interviews : An Introduction Many readers of this blog are currently considering adopting from Viet Nam. What would you like to say to them? The Engelbrecht Family - I was extremely impressed with the quality of the orphanges in VN. The children all seemed very well cared for. Christina - First, congratulations! It's an incredible gift and a blessing to adopt a child from Vietnam. Second, please go into your adoption with your eyes wide open. Do your best to research every aspect of your adoption – the country, the agencies, the laws, other parents' experiences, attachment issues… basically all the types of things covered in this interview! Adoption is not for the faint of heart and it's… [more]
Viet Nam Adoptive Family Interviews – Re Adoption, Culture & Community
Viet Nam Adoptive Family Interviews : An Introduction Did you re-adopt your child in your home state? Can you please talk about your decision to do or not do so? The Engelbrecht Family - We are in the process of re-adopting. This was the best way to change her name in our state. Christina - Yes, we re-adopted. We wanted our kids to have an American birth certificate because it helps with other citizenship documents and also it's amazing how many times you need to show a birth certificate (like signing up for soccer or baseball) and we didn't want to hand over Zeeb's only copy from Vietnam. Also, it gives us peace of mind that he was officially adopted in America as well as… [more]
Viet Nam Adoptive Family Interviews – Dealing With the Public
Viet Nam Adoptive Family Interviews : An Introduction Have you encountered any rude/nosy/disrespectful comments or questions about your family? If so, how did you handle them? The Engelbrecht Family - So many people ask if we can conceive. I just say that she is what we've always wanted. Christina - Nothing overtly rude or disrespectful. We live in an area that is pretty diverse and there are many transracial families so most people don't give us a second look. I have been asked a few times where my son is from or if my husband is Asian. And often when I say we adopted him from Vietnam they'll say he's so lucky or I'm such a wonderful person – comments I… [more]
Viet Nam Adoptive Family Interviews – Adjusting to Life at Home
Viet Nam Adoptive Family Interviews : An Introduction How did your child adjust to their new life in the US? The Engelbrecht Family - She adjusted very easily. She is just very adaptable Christina - I was amazed at how well Zeeb adjusted to his new life. It wasn't instant perfection of course, but considering how many changes he had to deal with and just all the chaos of coming into a family of 6 at Christmas time, he did great. The biggest hurdle for us what his language – he held onto his Vietnamese for probably 4 months and he would get frustrated when we didn't understand him. Honestly a lot of this has faded from my memory already (!!)… [more]
Viet Nam Adoptive Family Interviews – The Power of Time
Viet Nam Adoptive Family Interviews : An Introduction Can you talk about how your parent-child bond formed/changed from the time you first met until today? The Engelbrecht Family - Sienna was very easy to bond with. She formed bond before we left Viet Nam and she has just deepened those. She 'checks in' a lot and looks for support now. Christina - When I first met Zeeb, I thought he was a cute little boy but he didn't feel like *mine*… in part I think because he was with his foster family and he was clearly very bonded to them. But even in those first weeks he was with us, it still felt a little like we were babysitting him (and… [more]
Viet Nam Adoptive Family Interviews – Bonding
Viet Nam Adoptive Family Interviews : An Introduction If your child bonded quickly to one parent over the other (in a two parent home,) how did you encourage bonding with the other parent? Christina - Zeeb bonded more easily to my husband, I think maybe because he had been so attached to his foster mother and sister. Also my husband didn't get as stressed by things and I think Zeeb sensed that. Once we got home and my husband went back to work, Zeeb and I built our own bond… just being together all day every day did the trick. The Mynes Family - When we were still in Viet Nam Leland did quickly bond with Chris. I though it was because… [more]
Viet Nam Adoptive Family Interviews – Attachment and Baby Wearing
Viet Nam Adoptive Family Interviews : An Introduction What would you recommend to families to foster attachment between parent and child? The Engelbrecht Family - Skin-to-skin contact. A lot of playful interaction. Christina - Hold your child as much as you can, be the one to feed him and provide for his needs, try to keep things predictable and routine, as much as possible. While in Vietnam, we read Zeeb the same books and watched the same videos over and over and we tried to keep meals and naptimes at the same times every day. Once we got home, we continued to keep things on a schedule and were the primary caregivers for Zeeb. He didn't have a babysitter or go to his… [more]
Viet Nam Adoptive Family Interviews – Memories of Viet Nam
Viet Nam Adoptive Family Interviews : An Introduction What are some of your favorite memories of your time in Viet Nam? The Engelbrecht Family - Cyclo rides, Hoa Long Bay, trip to our daughter's province Christina - The best parts were the times when Zeeb was happy and smiling and having fun, even if the kids were just playing with toys in our room or on the hotel playground. But when we went out, the biggest hits were the Water Puppets and Hoan Kiem Lake in Hanoi, the shopping and the zoo in HCMC (Ho Chi Minh City,) and the day/night we spent at the beach in Long Hai. The Mynes Family - Meeting our son for the first time. Eating lunch with… [more]
Viet Nam Adoptive Family Interviews – Travel / Packing Tips
Viet Nam Adoptive Family Interviews : An Introduction Can you offer some advice to parents about the plane ride home with their new child? The Engelbrecht Family - Make sure you get a bassinet but be prepared for your child not to like it. Take a lot of extra clothes (Sienna rarely spit up and had never had diarrhea, but she did on the plane-she came home in a twice used pair of pants and a cardigan with no shirt). Christina – If your child is older like our son was, it helps to have someone tell him what to expect in Vietnamese. Zeeb freaked out about putting on a seatbelt and sitting still on the plane, but then a Vietnamese woman sitting… [more]
Viet Nam Adoptive Family Interviews – Getting Ready
Viet Nam Adoptive Family Interviews : An Introduction What do you suggest parents–to–be purchase in advance for their child? The Engelbrecht Family - If you may be traveling in the winter-take sweatsuits, etc for your child. Vietnamese want the children to be warm and temps in the 60's for us is very COLD to them. Definitely take meds with your for your child-you never know if you can get English labels. At least one or two outfits smaller then you think you need (our daughter's weight is pure muscle and everything we took was too big even based on weight) Christina - It's hard because you don't know exactly how old your child will be when they arrive home – or what… [more]

Summer has come to mean more than just scores of shoppers and visitors on Michigan Avenue. It now also brings plenty of extra police officers to discourage would be troublemakers.
Friday night police arrested one man for unknown reasons, but the bigger concern is the mobs of young people who have been terrorizing visitors on warm summer weekends, and giving this vital tourist destination a bad reputation for safety.
"Most of the people I talk to about the miracle mile lucky, the downtown area, there's always a police presence which we've seen today and everything like that so we feel very comfortable about that," said Ed Baillargeon, visiting from Ann Arbor, Michigan.
Ninety blocks away in the South Shore neighborhood, police held an outdoor roll call, right across the street from the laundromat where earlier this week a gunman opened fire and wounded seven people. A lieutenant reminded the officers to be proactive and do their best to curtail gang violence. Probationary officers paired up with regular beat officers to walk the neighborhood, to discourage criminal activity, interact with people living there, and build relationships.
"There's some things you can't prevent, hopefully there's a lot of things that are being prevented, we just hope that this kind of interaction will maybe help some people at least to come forward with information," said Chicago Police Captain Ruth Wedster.
Last weekend police sources said there were problems in and around Michigan Avenue, a mob of young people overran the McDonalds at State and Chicago, stealing food orders from patrons and running out.
And in an unrelated incident, a woman who confronted a thug got her car window smashed out. Police hope a very visible police presence will discourage any problems and make visitors feel secure.
"The police officers around makes me feel very comfortable, knowing I have safety around me, I know I'm secure in my surroundings, so I feel comfortable now," said Cheryl McClellan from Chicago.

The Bee Gees only performed a single concert in 1997, but it was recorded for posterity and released shortly thereafter on CD, then as a DVD, under the title One Night Only .
That career-spanning night of music at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas is now available on Blu-ray from Eagle Rock Entertainment .
Fully restored with remastered sound, the One Night Only Blu-ray includes more than 30 songs, among them the signature disco-era Bee Gees hits "Stayin' Alive," "Night Fever" and "You Should Be Dancing." The group's 1960s output also is well represented, as well as songs they wrote that were made famous by other artists, such as "Grease," a No. 1 single for Frankie Valli , and "Islands in the Stream," a hit duet for Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton .

For years, the UEFA Champions League has made games in 5.1 surround sound available to broadcasters. A broadcast innovator, the Champions League has successfully implemented numerous technological advancements into their broadcasts, including the use of the fast-moving overhead CamCat cameras, HD video, 3D video, and Dolby® Digital Plus audio. Broadcasters who want to transmit the Champions League games in the highest-quality surround sound require technologies such as Dolby E and Dolby Digital Plus, which enable multichannel audio contribution from live events.
The example described here is one of the German satellite company Sat.1's first exclusive free-TV transmissions of a Champions League game, where Dolby E and Dolby Digital Plus were essential to the successful production and broadcast.
To pick up the sound of ball kicks and close-up action, the number of gun-mics around the pitch was increased. Six identical mics were added on either side of the pitch and one behind each goal post.
The main ambience was captured using semi-ORTF stereo mic pairs, pointing to the crowd. A semicoincident stereo pair of additional ambience mics ("side-fillers") was placed behind each goal post, facing the crowd. Also, a combination of an omnidirectional mic (for "distant" de-correlated audience ambience feedback) and a semicoincident stereo pair were more closely positioned toward the main stand audience, both panned into the rear.
Two distinct mix groups, Crowd and Sport, went through independent frequency and dynamics processing chains, and were then combined with the commentary and any other background music and FX.
An initial rough mix was prepared in the outside broadcast (OB) truck before being relayed to the broadcast center via a redundant dual link over fiber-optic and satellite using Dolby E as a professional audio distribution format on a standard AES-3 pair. (Alternatives such as distributing discrete PCM audio as three embedded audio pairs within an HD-SDI video signal were made available, as many professional equipment manufacturers support both methods, including the handling of the important metadata.) The metadata embedded within Dolby E is designed to interface directly with the Dolby Digital Plus format.
Further processing in terms of Dolby E decoding was performed in Sat.1's broadcast center in order to prepare the audio for transmission. The Dolby E metadata specification allows the carriage of metadata outside of the Dolby E format. Therefore, contribution via multichannel PCM would achieve a similar result, and also allow a complete audio and metadata connection to the transmission encoder equipment.
The end result for Sat.1 was excellent-quality surround sound that heightened the experience for its audience watching Champions League soccer. By using Dolby E and Dolby Digital Plus, this same experience can be achieved by any broadcaster today wishing to offer audio quality equivalent to Blu-ray™ HD or 3D content.

2009 Domain de Costes Rouges. 100% Mansois (Fer Savedou, one of my favorite names for a grape!)
Started out rather light and inoffensive. Not bad...just reticent. With some air, though, the "ferrous" qualities I have found in other (weirder) examples of fer-based wines came out more, but frankly a little more balanced and less weird than some of these other interesting wines from Southwestern France! Very meaty and spicy, with richness and minerality really shinging. An interesting and enjoyable and "different" French red!

My HG cleanser! I have combination/oily, clog-prone, and easily dehydrated skin. I've tried numerous foaming cleansers by Shiseido, Chanel, Lancome, but they all were too stripping for my skin. I've had luck with CeraVe Foaming Wash, but I admit that I prefer a cleanser that has that luxurious, foaming texture that you typically find with higher-end Japanese brands. Cle de Peau lathers up very nicely, and leaves your skin feeling refreshed, silky, and not the least bit dried out. It does leave a bit of a film on the skin as you are rinsing, but once my skin is dry, you can't feel it anymore. Just smooth and supple skin. Yes it is pricey but I haven't found a comparable cleanser!
OMG accidentally bought this instead of the cleansing cream, WORST face wash ever!!! You know that bar soap that leaves your skin feeling like it has a waxy film on it? That's this, except SUPER expensive! Save the money and buy the cheapest crappiest bar soap and wipe that on your face, EWW!
hmmm im in big trouble. i knew i shouldnt have bought this cleanser lest i become addicted to it. now i don't want to use anything else!!
thankfully, only a tiny amount (about a pea size) is required to produce the most luxurious lather ive ever experienced in a face cleanser. i used to have acne, but since i was on accutane about 2 yrs ago, my skin has become very very dry. i find that most dry skin cleansers leave a film over my face, so it doesnt feel entirely clean. CDP's cleanser leaves my skin squeaky clean!! with no tightness at all! it's also got a nice pleasant scent. it's pretty much everything i've ever wanted in a cleanser, except the price.
So expensive but I love it. It smells so good and clean. Only good for summer. Too drying.
I got this as a sample at Neiman's. I was using Ole Hendrickson aloe vera at the time. My skin was really bothering me and I couldn't figure out why - thought it was the Clarisonic....not sure what it was. I bought a very expensive moisturizer there to try to ease it, and they threw the sample in. So, the next day, I use wayyyyy too much of it I guess because I have to use a lot of the Ole H to get a good cleanse going....anyway, what surprised me was how easy it washed off and left me feeling squeaky clean. No trace of makeup at all! Since then, I use a tiny bit all over my damp face, Clarisonic it, then rinse like in two splashes and my face is residue free. With the Ole, and most of my others, I would have to rinse 100 times and get soaked, or wash in the shower. This is a pleasure! This is why I love it so much, besides the scent and the feel. I will be buying it. One of the first times a sample paid off! Gave my teenage son the Ole with his own Clarisonic and he loves it....I think that's the target crowd, not my age group. And by the way, even if I use this, my Renova later, and in the morning, rinse and just sunscreen, my skin does not bother me at all, I can actually skip moisturizer (I don't like to, just sayin'...). This means it was the cleanser all along. Never underestimate the power of a good cleanser is what I learned today!
I think I may have found a new cleanser. I have used Purity by Philosophy for a few years now. A sample of this product was given to me by a friend and I cannot say enough great things about it! My skin feels incredible after using this product and it gets rid of all leftover traces of makeup, to include eye makeup. (Other products usually leave traces of mascara and create the dreaded "raccoon eye" look for me.) This cleanser has a nice, creamy texture, foams up wonderfully and has a light, pleasant smell. A small amount goes a very long way, too. The only downfall is the price point, but definitely worth every penny.
Ok so I really did not want to like this product because its expensive for a cleanser. However, as soon as I used it on my face i was in heaven. The smell is just unbelievably fabulous. I wish they could make all their products smell like this or at lease have a perfume that smells like this. I want to wash my face just so I can smell this. It makes my cleansing routine something to look forward to rather than it being a chore. My face literally glows and is instantly brightened upon cleansing and its comfortable (not tight as most foaming cleansers tend to do). And what surprised me the most was that a VERY TINY amount (like a size of a green pea) is required to cleanse/foam your face. So I guess this will last me a long time considering a very tiny amount is needed to cleanse and I only use this at night time because that's when I need a thorough cleansing. My ultimate HG night time cleanser officially!!! In the morning I use any other cleanser which are milder such as my Clarins Shea Butter (super quality too) or Sisley Clenasing Milk with Lily (another super quality product but very pricy and more for the winter months).
I have combination skin (dry cheeks, oily t-zone). I received a sample of this at Neiman Marcus and purchased a regular tube as soon as it ran out. My face has never felt smoother or looked better! No doubt the Cle de Peau line if expensive, but I believe you get what you pay for and the tube should last months. I do see the water bead up on my face when I'm done cleansing, which may leave the impression that there's a film, but the results speak for themselves. If there's a film on my face... I'll take it : ) I'll continue to use as long as I can afford it.
I love the feel of this wash, it is so creamy and soft. A little goes a long way. One tube of it, with daily use, has lasted about 4 months. I use it in the shower in the mornings. it leaves my face very clean. It is a bit more drying than my previous wash made by ROC Enydrial, but that one was discontinued, so I am now impressed with this. I did find however that the Shiseido cleansers are of similar feel and quality and are quite a lot cheaper!
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I spent a weekend in Manhattan with a grad school friend, and she had the complete line of Cle de Peau. Being the rhub that I am, I didn't know that this line was the "Acura" to Shiseido's "Honda." She insisted that I try it, so I did. When I washed my face in the shower I used _way_ too much on my Clarisonic and had to rinse away a good bit of it. Still, I loved the fragrance and the texture, but I noticed that as I was rinsing the product off, my face practically squeaked, liked a dinner plate does when it's being washed. Because of that I thought my face was going to be tight and dry . . . but it wasn't. I'm not sure that this is the right cleanser for a pre-retinoid or serum use, but it, followed by their emulsion, is a great combination for a pre-make up routine. Nevertheless, when my friend told me what it cost, I almost fainted. I love it, but my Atopalm is just as good. And incidentally, although I love the fact that MU seems to believe that I'm twenty-five to twenty-nine (God love you for that), I'm not. I'm (deep breath) forty-two.

TINY TOWNSHIP – It has been five years since a moratorium halted the...
ALLISTON - A medical centre at Kingsmere Village has taken a giant step forward as local doctors have signed on to operate an urgent care clinic.
About a year ago, the vision for the Kingsmere Medical Centre was made public. Located at the corner of Industrial Parkway and King Street in Alliston, the two-storey facility will be about 20,000 square feet and will include about 9,500 square feet of space for lease on each floor.
The urgent care clinic, which will be operated by emergency room physicians, is the first service to officially sign on and are acting as an anchor tenant for the centre.
"We will be able to provide acute care for (a) wide variety of medical problems including infections, fractures and sprains," said Izabella Kogan, the lead physician at Alliston's Family Health Team.
The clinic will be open to all residents in the community and there will X-rays on-site.
"We hope that our clinic will help to reduce the load on local ER and improve access to timely medical care for our growing community," Kogan said.
The Kingsmere Medical Facility is a Nautical Lands Group project, with Tony Leal spearheading the initiative. The centre will be equipped with the latest technology, including a video-conferencing network, allowing local patients to be connected with specialists in larger centres through video-conferencing.
With the urgent care clinic acting as an anchor tenant, Leal is hoping it will create a snowball effect for tenants that have been interested in the site.
"That was always the key here all year, we needed to get doctors committed to the building in order to create patient flow to attract other services," said Leal.
He said other service providers interested in moving in include PhysioMed, a pharmacy, hearing audio sciences, a denturist and dental office, as well as a branch office for the Community Care Access Centre.
"These are going to be many of the services that will continue to be to added on as we reach out into the marketing efforts to announce that this is really happening," said Leal.
Getting started on constructing the building is based on tenancy. Leal said before the shovels can go in the ground, it has to be at 80 per cent occupancy. Right now, if the tenants who've expressed interest sign on, the medical centre is about 60 per cent occupied.
"Realistically I can see the centre in operation within a year-and-a-half," said Leal, adding that would mean construction next summer with tenants moving in by the end of 2013.

BELECTRIC has taken over Konarka Technologies GmbH
BELECTRIC, the global market leader (2010 & 2011) in the development and construction of ground-mounted solar power plants and roof-mounted photovoltaic systems, has taken over Konarka Technologies GmbH.
The group was the leading manufacturer of "Power Plastic," a thin, film-like organic photovoltaic material with a low weight and a wide range of uses. The German subsidiary of the US company Konarka Technologies Inc. applied for insolvency shortly after its parent company around the mid-point of the year and opened negotiations with several investors. An agreement has now been reached with the leading systems integrator BELECTRIC, which is based in Kolitzheim (Bavaria).

LANSING (WKZO) -- The State of Michigan will see tax revenues fall in the next two years.
The Treasury Department released their analysis this week of 2014 and 2015 state revenue and expect a decline of 400-million dollars. The figure is in stark contrast to projections in January of a nearly one-billion dollar surplus for the state over the next two years.
Analysts say lower than expected income and sales tax revenues during the winter and spring coupled with businesses cashing in tax credits greatly changed their outlook.

State investigators are recommending criminal charges against members of a law enforcement motorcycle club who they say witnessed and took part in Prescott bar fight.
The Arizona Department of Public Safety released a report Thursday that outlines an attempted cover-up by high-ranking officers, who have since left their jobs.
[Related: Report outlines chaotic scene in Prescott bar]
The report said that Phoenix police Officer Eric Amato and Greg Kauffman, a supervisor at an Ajo ambulance service, were directly involved in the December fight along Whiskey Row.
Investigators say former Prescott Valley police Chief Bill Fessler and former Yavapai County sheriff's Sgt. Bill Suttle lied to police who responded to the scene.
The report also recommends a charge of disorderly conduct against an alleged victim, Justin Stafford.
The Maricopa County Attorney's Office will decide whether any charges are warranted.
Suttle and Capt. Marc Schmidt submitted their resignations in March. Suttle is a former commander of a drug trafficking task force, while Schmidt was a member of the executive staff of the Sheriff's Office.
Yavapai County Sheriff Scott Mascher released this statement on Thursday:
"I have thoroughly reviewed the reports submitted by Coconino County Sheriff's officials regarding the Whiskey Row incident that occurred in Prescott on December 22, 2012. I want to assure the public we serve that the dedicated men and women of this office hold themselves to a higher standard. As your sheriff, I want to apologize to our community for any trust we may have lost as a result of this event. I know the badge has been tarnished and we will work relentlessly to regain the community's full trust and confidence."
