Etude House: AC Clinic Intense Pink Powder Spot!~
Annyeong haseyo!!!! ACNE DAYS ARE OVER~ well almost! I got this last April I think, and I have been using it since then~ :> I was in desperate need of a product to completely dry out my pimples! The pimples that I got from the Body Shop tea tree line fully bloomed :))) AND OMO WAS MY SKIN SO BUMPY WITH HUGE ANGRY PIMPLES!
I was kinda afraid at first to try out new acne fighting products but because I have tried a few products from Etude House's line of special care products (AC Clinic Clay Pack, AC White Trouble Essencializer & Toner that all did wonders to my skin) I had trust that it could somehow work and if it does not work, hoped that it will not worsen my condition.
While I was looking for spot treatments, I was also persuaded by Krystal (fx) that this product might be the one~ :)) kekeke~ HAVE YOU SEEN HER SKIN?~ this is the haul she did recently^ Spot the spot treatment!
This spot treatment is a part of a very meticulous AC Clinic Intense Skincare sequence:
Foam Cleanser > Toner > Gel Lotion > Red Spot Balm > Pink Powder Spot.
Note the word… Intense! :)) Etude House has special care lines formulated for different needs~ And the AC line is particularly for trouble care needs~ Plus this one is non-comedogenic (^-^)/~
Etude House AC Clinic Intense Pink Powder Spot is formulated with Salicylic Acid and Hinoki Cypress, AC Clinic delivers trouble care. Pink Powder alleviates trouble swelling on contact to minimize damage. Comes with cotton swabs for application.
{Directions:} Do not shake bottle. After facial care, allow powder to settle at the bottom. Perpendicularly dip cotton swab into bottle to draw powder from bottle. Use swab to dab trouble spots and acne with swab top to coat with powder.
Tadaaaan! kekeke~ Excuse the missing cotton swabs and the almost used up bottles :))) The package looks like this :> Neatly and nicely packaged into a plastic backing holding the items :)
Maybe you are wondering why there are 2 bottles~ The bigger one is the actual product called the Pink Powder Spot and the smaller one is a freebie (YEAY we all love freebies!) which is called Pink Powder Water~ Then the kit also contains a number of spade like tipped cotton swabs :)
The packaging is of course is still designed in accordance (haha what a word XD) with the whole line. The glass is similar to the thick glass bottles of the gel lotion and toner~ It's in the same shade of green and looks like it means business~
The bottle only contains 15ml of product and will expire 12 months after opening~ though I used up mine in a span of utmost 2 months!
I should have taken a photo of the product before I used them all up XD Squint your eyes and see the liquid over the powder~ The liquid should not be mixed with the powder and the powder should stay settled at the bottom~
As for the product's color… yes you've guessed it right! It's in a pink color ^-^
Using the cotton swabs will help in getting the powder out without mixing the two components together~
The scent might not be that attractive to some and smells like it really is a medication treatment! And now that the liquid is almost gone, the powder smells really strong and almost smokey~ (Not smoke from a cigarette but smoke from burning leaves)
The product smells like Calamine Lotion, looks like it and feels like it~ Maybe… just maybe, this is calamine lotion that is nicely packaged @.@ hmmm…. BUT I noticed that this one works stronger~ more INTENSELY than normal calamine~
Since the product has less liquid now, the powder is quite thick! The stingy sensation will only be felt if the pimple is really ripe and if the pimple is popped! I use this every night after I've put on my emulsion and wait for it to dry up a little before I shut my eyes because it could transfer to pillows! It's a bit picky too because if you sleep with just the fan on and if it's hot, it will totally MELT -.-
Now onto the freebie! This freebie is so great! If the Pink Powder Spot is for night time, the Pink Powder Water is for the day! :D
As you could see~ the Pink Powder Water also has powder and liquid components~ To use this particular product, you have to do the opposite and shake the bottle before using.
OMO!!! SAME ml!!! kekeke~ the freebie is also 15 ml!!!
Formulated with Sulfur Powder (antibiotic), Salicylic Acid and Hinoki Cypress extract, AC Clinic Pink Powder Water soothes, heals, and brightens blemishes with a more powerful, advanced medicated formula.
Pink Powder Water solution alleviates trouble swelling on contact to minimize damage.
And because you will look funny if you have white blotches like this^ on your face if you go out~ you could top it off with makeup after it dries! AWESOME! :D This one feels milder and does not sting as much compared to the Pink Powder Spot~
Comparison~ The Spot treatment is much thicker and smells stronger~ The water is less opaque and dries faster too!
Now onto the slightly horrifying photos of my super bad acne that super bloomed and loved my cheeks~ If you are eating something~ Please look away :)))
This is my FIRST time to experience such horrible all out once sprouting of pimples! Before, I experience zits and I only get them like 3 at a time, but never this many and this huge -.-
See how good these products are?!!!! :D :D OH YEAH!!! I was really really sad with what happened to my skin! But the AC Special Care line is such a blessing because it slowly and gently helped me combat acne! I did not experience any peeling, any redness and any additional breakouts while using this! And take note that these two were the only acne fighting products that I used during the duration of the dates.
The two work hand in hand to cure pimples~ DAY= Pink Powder Water, NIGHT= Pink Powder Spot. As you could see, the pimples did not disappear over night but it slowly worked and did its thing.
I was so impressed by how these two worked so I bought a complimenting skin care product called their AC Clinic Gel Lotion :) Oh a bottle of the AC Clinic Intense Pink Powder Spot costs 628 pesos with a free 15ml Pink Powder Water :)
I suggest trying these out if you want an effective yet non-harsh spot treatment! :) And if you currently have acne as bad as I did, don't ever give up cause for sure you'll find a product that will suit your skin! If a product does not work for you even though it is so crazily expensive, stop using it cause the aftermath will only be disastrous.

A female bus driver went berserk, beating down a sassy high school passenger for being "disrespectful." It's not clear exactly what the student said that set off the city worker, but the entire brutal brawl was caught on camera.
The women are literally throwing each other up the narrow aisle and over the seats as other patrons tried to squeeze out of their way. It is one of the most shocking public fights I've ever seen.
From the video, it appears as though the driver threw the first blow, but the teen gave as good as she got. They were both clawing, slapping, and pulling on each other like feral cats. It was crazy that this all went down on public transportation. The bus driving basher has reportedly been on the job since 2003, so I am sure a lot of passengers have worked her last nerve before. Shouldn't she have thicker skin by now?
The other passengers were clearly shocked (aside from the one who continued whatever game that was on her Game Boy as the fists flew over her head). Toward the end of the skirmish, a man could be heard pleading, "Are you going to let that little girl go, lady?" Oddly enough, this is the second wild bus fight that has popped up in the last month. In October, another driver punches the living daylights out of a woman who was arguing with him. Totally nuts!
A rep for Baltimore's MTA says the employee in this latest bus brawl has been placed on leave while they investigate the incident. With her job possibly on the line, I wonder if she is regretting her reaction now. Couldn't she just have kicked the smart-mouthed teen off the bus instead of beating the crap out of her? I certainly understand how maddeningly rude kids can be, but that is no justification for smacking them around. Her bad judgement warrants a temporary suspension -- whether that kid was rude or not.
Watch the brutal bus brawl:
Do you think the driver should have been suspended?
im sorry, what was she supposed to be respecting? she shouldnt have a job. who teaches kids to push people around at work? kids that arent even theirs at that
@ Rothann : that is exactly what I was wondering..
There is no reason for anybody to put their hands on a child.She should be fired. But that don't make that teen right either she should have ask her to get off her bus and that would've been the end of that.Yeah we probably all would like to slap some sense in disrespectful children but that not the way to handle them.I believe the teen shouldn'tbe allowed back onthe buses.
so if this was your teen you would be ok with it? If this was an adult the driver would be charged with assault.. suspended yes. arrested yes... plus her parents might say something to that effect...
These are very stressful times in ife. People snap sometimes and totally lose it, because you never know who your dealing with or what the heck they are going through. I can't imagine being a bus driver and dealing with some of the the disrespect. This is the second bus driver in the news to fight a passenger. Fight attendents, aviation jobs and other service jobs dealing with the public are not easy. People in general should learn to be more respectful to one another.
The next time a bus driver asks someone to turn their music down....they just might do it without arguement!
Seriously, that was assualt on a minor pure and simple and the adult should be sitting in jail right now.
The bus driver is obviously a lesbian and I suspect the cute teenager's only crime was rebuffing her advances.

Simple things are beautiful, aren't they just?
Today I'm mostly dreaming of hotter climes (nothing new there then) and admiring the Mediterranean-inspired range of diningware from German design company ASA. Its ethos is that nothing brings people together like a nicely set table. Indeed. Make sure there's a nice bottle or two of rose mixed in and they won't move for hours either (that's my ethos). ASA's pieces certainly are simple and stylish, suitable for everyday use, providing all the necessaries for an afternoon of relaxed entertaining…
Above: The clean lines of the cake platter and bowls in white ceramic with glass cover are perfect for party nibbles…
Below: Beautiful design ensures this tomato bowl is a piece you'll want to covet…
Below: These glossy white ceramic jugs are ideal for keeping liquids cool…
Below: The Manuale collection from home by ASA is equally beautiful and features all the essentials for baking and food preparation. Finished in light grey and blue, the range is described by ASA as 'strong, functional and archaic in shape in colour.' All pieces of tableware in this stoneware collection were made by hand, with spouts manually shaped with wet clay. To create the stylish surface, which preserves the beauty of the potter's wheel grooves, a colour glaze covers the fine stoneware shards underneath to create a transparent coating. Nice.
You can find the ASA collection available at ACHICA until Thursday 1st September 2011.

When you're a fan of a bad team, or you happen to cover one, at some point reality slaps you in the face with an open palm.
I'm not sure the Miami Dolphins are at that point following last night's 23-17 loss to the Carolina Panthers, which was a loss far more embarrassing than the score indicates.
But after entering the exhibition season with optimism about 2012, the Dolphins' performance in the past two exhibition games has left me disappointing, and puzzled.
I'd struggle to find ANYTHING positive to say about the Dolphins after last night's game against Carolina, whom the Dolphins first-team unit made look like Super Bowl contenders.
The Dolphins defense, which was supposed to pick up where they left off in 2011, has plenty of what Jared Odrick called "seepage."
I'd call it sewage.
The running game, which gained 37 yards on 12 carries, is the worst I've ever seen it. And that's saying a lot considering the 2007 unit couldn't run the ball at all.
The Dolphins defense has no pass rush, which means the secondary must cover receivers forever, and that's not possible.
The offensive line can't protect right now, which means the quarterbacks are developing happy feet (which certainly won't be good for rookie quarterback Ryan Tannehill).
At least Brandon Fields is still booming kicks, and Dan Carpenter finally made a 52-yard field goal, his first of the exhibition season. I'm sensing the special teams unit will be the highlight of Sundays.
I'm aware this is the exhibition season, and that the Dolphins played Friday night's game without Cameron Wake, Karlos Dansby and Kevin Burnett, three defensive starters.
So I'm trying not to overreact. But let us not pretend that last night's game against an average team was even competitive until Pat Devlin put on his superhero gear and made the score look respectable before sealing the game with an endzone interception.
Cam Cameron's tenure taught me the true measuring stick of a head coach is his ability, or inability to charter a new course, preventing the ship from running into an iceberg that can sink it.
When Tony Sparano's ship was taking on water the Dolphins created the Wildcat, and the gimmicky offense took that 2008 team off life support, and they eventually won the AFC East that season.
Now we'll see how ready and inventive Joe Philbin is and can be for his new role as an NFL head coach. It appears he's got his work cut out for him.
Can Joe Philbin fix the Miami Dolphins?

Like these guys said, just because they're able to do certain things doesn't mean everyone should do it. That being said, these guys shouldn't go to jail.
A skater, unlike your typical pedestrian, experiences space just as intensely and consciously as an architect himself, albeit in a different way. He/she is alive to the possibility of space, not in its totality, as an architect would be, but as a collection of tactile surfaces to be jumped on, grinded, and conquered.

Women Who Rock - Music Meets Fashion
On May 13, 2011, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum will unveil its much-anticipated exhibit "Women Who Rock," which explores the contributions of female recording artists from the 1920s through today. It includes plenty of fashion! Here's a sneak peek.
Ruth Brown's Dress, 1988
Ruth Brown was yet another R&B star who managed to cross over onto the rock 'n' roll charts, scoring minor hits with "Lucky Lips" and "This Little Girl's Gone Rockin'" in the 1950s. In 1988, she played Motormouth Maybelle in John Waters' cult classic Hairspray, wearing this very loud, very fabulous gold and black striped dress. Brown was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1993.

In theory, podcasts are an excellent idea. It's like radio but better because they're lots of content out there and it's pretty easy to access what you want.
And while everyone loves the idea of a podcast and lots of people enthusiastically talk about making podcasts, it's actually difficult to find a lot of people who admit to listening to them. Hands up, how many people out there listen to podcasts on a regular basis. I'd be surprised if more than a few people raised their hands.
If the paucity of podcast listeners is true, why is that? Podcasts should be popular because they're easy to produce, which means they're a huge variety of content available; they're pretty easy to find and download, and listening to them on your computer or MP3 player is user-friendly. Hit play, and you're good to go.
But in the scheme of things, podcasts have such a low profile. While podcasts struggle to gain momentum, blogs continue to boom, video-casts are becoming more popular as they get easier to make and access through places such as YouTube, and photo-sharing still has plenty of traction. You could argue that podcasts are the ugly-duckling on the user-generated content family.
Even though few people want to admit listening to podcasts, there are apparently lots of people apparently downloading them. According to ReadWriteWeb, Wizzard Media (which owns Libsyn, Switchpod and Blast Podcast) passed the one billion download barrier in 2007.
But as RWW points out, getting an accurate read on what this accomplishment really means given it's difficult to tell how people consume podcasts after they are downloaded. For example, I've got a bunch of podcasts in my iTunes but only listening a very small number.
The other podcasting mystery if whether there is a business to be had. In other words, are advertisers gravitating to the medium at a time when they're still, at best, dabbling with putting ads on blogs? While there are podcasts that attract sponsors, my sense is the vast majority of podcasts never even get a sniff of advertising revenue – and it's not like there's AdSense for podcasting if you are looking to make a few bucks on the side each month.
So, Leesa Barnes (one of Canada's leading podcasters), what do you think? Is podcasting, in fact, alive and well?

Mayo Clinic Loses Millions Because of Medicare
September 14, 2009 | Filed Under Anti-Americanism, Barack Obama, Budget, Business, Capitalism, Democrats/Leftists, Economy/Finances, Health, Liberals, President, Socialism, Society/Culture, Taxes, Warner Todd Huston | Comments Off
-By Warner Todd Huston
The Anchorage Daily News has a very interesting editorial that reveals that the celebrated Mayo Clinic has lost millions because of Medicare over the last year.
In its editorial the ADN is warning that the public option is "as unhealthy as Medicare" because of the artificially low payments the government remits to healthcare providers, doctors and hospitals.
President Obama and the left love to point to the Mayo Clinic as one of America's premier medical institutions and rightfully so. But the ADN reveals that the clinic lost $840 million on it's $1.7 billion worth of Medicare work. ADN notes that the loses that doctors and hospitals are being hit with because the government refuses to pay market prices for services to patients, many doctors and hospitals are limiting new patients on Medicare.
Obama's plans for a "public option" is supposed to "fix" the fact that doctors are limiting Medicare patients, but ADN shows that the policy will make matters worse.
A government-run "public plan" would make this dilemma worse rather than better. Current proposals for a "public plan" would place unsustainable financial pressure on doctors and hospitals. Some of the proposals suggest paying providers rates close to that which Medicare currently uses to underpay health care providers. Others suggest "negotiated" payments, but the pressure to suppress provider payments would be hard to resist. Either way, the current problematic situation for patient access to care could well become a crisis.
In other words, the claim that Obamacare would improve and enlarge medical services is simply a chimerical fantasy.
The only outcome will be rationing in order not to overload the delicate system.
And who will be cut off from medical care first? The elderly. Why? Because they use it the most. Ergo, Obamacare will cut off our elderly and will begin to deny them services from coast to coast.

BOSTON, MA and LONDON -- (Marketwire) -- 11/27/12 --
News Facts
- Today Entuity® announced the general availability of a major new release of its award-winning network management solution (Entuity 13). Unlike typical "service pack" releases, this new version contains significant functional improvements and technology updates. With two product releases annually, Entuity helps keep customers abreast of the latest advances in network infrastructure while helping reduce the overall cost and effort required to manage today's enterprise networks.
- In a recent Network Management Systems Radar Report by Enterprise Management Associates, Entuity was recognized for having the most enthusiastic customers. According to the report, "Entuity customers raved about the intuitive UI, easy deployment, and quality of vendor support received, clearly exceeding expectations on a regular basis."
- Entuity 13 integrates all the requisite, contemporary network management functionality including automated, continual discovery of inventory and topology; configuration monitoring; event alerting and root cause analysis; elemental and flow-based performance; and extensive reporting into a single solution with limitless scalability. Entuity's unique future-proof product architecture provides a rapid development environment ensuring that customers won't need to wait months or years for the ability to monitor the latest advances in network infrastructure and technology.
- Topology Mapping Enhancements - Connectivity links in topology maps are typically established automatically. Occasionally, for a variety of reasons, some devices need to be linked manually. Entuity 13 users are now able, with drag-and-drop ease, to associate handpicked interfaces and devices with manually added links to display their status dynamically for richer and more complete network maps. Event information is now propagated to top-level group icons and manual links for better awareness of issues affecting a group's individual components. A custom topology map may now be included in Entuity Custom Dashboards for improved integration. Additionally, Entuity 13 allows administrators to set read-only maps for specific groups of users.
- Reporting Enhancements - Entuity 13 includes enhancements that allow administrators to quickly review, update and clone existing scheduled reports. A new suite of dashboard optimized mini-reports that help users build richer dashboards more easily and quickly has also been added. In addition to over 100 out-of-the-box reports, several new reports have been added to Entuity 13, including: Port Availability, CPU Capacity Planning, Memory Capacity Planning and Port Bandwidth Capacity Planning.
- User Interface Improvements - Several functional improvements have been made to the Entuity 13 UI to help users work more efficiently and allow them to focus more tightly on business issues. Notable among the UI improvements is one that allows administrators to configure custom dashboards on behalf of other users and another that presents a variety of new Object Status Icons and tool tips to help NOC staff identify and respond to issues with greater speed and ease.
- Script-Based Administration & Configuration Enhancements - Cloud Service Providers and large enterprise administrators frequently need to manipulate large sets of managed network objects. Many of these tasks can be automated by using scripts. Entuity 13 includes new features that allow more administrative tasks to be scripted and run from third-party solutions, including editing community strings; deleting devices; and creating, editing, and deleting IP SLA operations. Also included in this release are enhancements that enable change-triggered collection of device configuration files, helping users stay up-to-date with device configuration changes.
- Flow Analysis Updates - Entuity includes basic Integrated Flow Analysis at no extra charge along with an optional Integrated Flow Analyzer Premium version with enhanced functionality. In Entuity 13, both basic and premium versions of the Integrated Flow Analyzer have been extended with support for Internet Protocol Flow Information Export (IPFIX).
- Updated Device Support - This release includes enhanced support for Cisco ACE, ASA, ASR and MDS devices among others.
- Updated Platform Support - Entuity 13 includes updates to support full migration to 64 bit Linux, Red Hat® Enterprise Server v6 and Oracle® Linux R6.
- Entuity 13 will be available in December for Microsoft® Windows Server® and Red Hat® Enterprise Linux® on both physical and virtualized hardware. Other supported virtual environments include Oracle VM Server & VM Manager, VMwareESX/ESXi & VCenter, and Microsoft Hyper-V.

American patriotism shone brightly during last weekend's conference, The Awakening 2013, an annual event staged by the Freedom Federation. Compelling speeches and a call to return to biblical principles from several nationally influential figures were the order of the day.
Speakers such as 2012 presidential candidate Michele Bachmann, retired Lt. Gen. Jerry Boykin, and authors Pamela Geller and Frank Gaffney, among many others, fired up the audience with inspirational speeches, compelling the nation to return to its godly roots and calling on citizens to "fight for the soul of America."
Following are a few noteworthy quotations from the conference:
"I don't care if you worship a stone; just don't stone me with it." —Pamela Geller, author and president of the American Freedom Defense Initiative
"We are witnessing in Europe now what Hitler could not accomplish years ago." —Pamela Geller
"We're not going to be able to stop abortion until each person looks at children as a blessing from God." —Jim Bob Duggar, former member of the Arkansas House of Representatives and star, along with his wife, Michelle, of the Discovery Health and TLC television series 19 Kids and Counting
"Don't question in the darkness what God has shown you in the light." —Michelle Duggar
"Sharia is the problem. It's not radical—it's crazy." —Frank Gaffney, author and founder and president of the Center for Security Policy
"Our first and second amendments are our last chances to survive." —Jonathan Matusitz, author and associate professor of communication at the University of Central Florida
"In the process of living the American dream, we are losing it." —Jan Morgan, Associated Press award-winning veteran investigative journalist and media personality
"We need to be trained and prepared for whatever comes our way, because you ain't seen nothing yet." —Jan Morgan
"We need to start talking about the victims of Islam. That's how you defeat it." —William Murray, chairman of the Religious Freedom Coalition
"Every generation deals with totalitarianism and evil. In our generation right now, it's Islam jihad."—Michele Bachmann
"The church doesn't shape our values anymore, and that's killing us as a nation." —Retired Lt. Gen. Jerry Boykin, executive vice president of the Family Research Council
"There is no single institution that affects American values more than the church." —Dr. Carlos Campo, president of Regent University

'Scary Movie 5' to Welcome Lindsay Lohan & Charlie Sheen
I guess, if anything, it should be noted that Dimension Films Scary Movie franchise is a job creator and continues to offer work to actors where no one else will. Keeping in this tradition Lindsay Lohan and Charlie Sheen are set to join the cast of Scary Movie 5, so say reports from E!. Sheen isn't so much of a surprise as he was already in both Scary Movie 3 and 4. The pair joins Ashley Tisdale of High School Musical. Comedian Kevin Hart is also rumored to be involved.
I'd like to say something about optimistic about Malcolm D. Lee directing because I have a soft spot for Undercover Brother but honestly, there's only so much you can do with a franchise that was beating a dead horse two movies ago.
The plot, as though it even matters at this point, will revolve around three dancers who compete for an important lead in a new production. Veteran dancer Heather Daltry, played by Lohan, gets cut in favor of the younger, perkier dancers and goes crazy. Mayhem and hilarity supposedly will ensue. I'm also assuming that there will be lots of stale pop culture jokes to go with your stale popcorn.
It's probably not necessary that you've seen the previous four films to jump right in. The film is prepped for release on April 19, 2013.

I've seen a couple of horror town compilation posts going around, but most of the time they have the same few towns in them, and there are so many horror towns that are awesome but no one knows about them

ok bUT the only way im accepting case 3 is if robin is dfab genderfluid/bigender because holy shit im so sick of this "raised as the wrong gender and struggles to accept true cis identity" bullshit
like he comes out to his parents at a younger age? as a trans*man, and they're accepting and they treat him as a boy and raise him as a boy, but even then something still feels off to him
as though maybe?? he was wrong about himself??? and he questions his own validity, and he questions himself and he thinks 'maybe i was wrong, maybe i'm a girl after all'
because his parents are accepting (if wrong to push him to become a prosecutor but that's a whole other ballgame) but it only goes so far, he can't recant what he felt and what he still feels and he can't say to them 'actually i'm a girl today and maybe forever, haha what a wacky misunderstanding'
but she??? still feels feminine????? and her brace/binder thing that had been the symbol of robin newman's perfect masculinity begins to feel like a shackle holding her down, even though she had wanted it and was proud of it
and maybe some days it's stronger or weaker, maybe today he's hotblooded top student robin newman and maybe tomorrow she's artist extraordinare and frilly-dress lover robin newman but they're both her and they're both him and
idk what im sayin is the only way i'll accept case 3 is if robin newman is genderfluid and themis academy 100% respects his pronouns on any given day (and on that note, constance courte is a fucking angel and im in love w/ her, oh my god an authority figure that robin sincerely trusts enough to indulge her identity struggles with, who actually promises that she'll be able to live as a girl OR as a boy, fucking marry me omg why did you have to die)
We're doing a poetry unit in my creative writing class now which means at the beginning of each class she gives us a random prompt to write a poem about which is pretty fun
pgrm replied to your post: "Who killed all these people?" "…Yuno." "No, I, I…
being zero escape is suffering
Here is the fullsize version of the most recent askkurashikis post by the way (linked because vlr spoilers)

You know the type.
That co-worker in the cubicle next to you who's forever bringing in snacks and treats for you and your colleagues to sample.
Girl Scout cookies. Homemade brownies. Birthday cakes. Whatever.
They lay them out on a table or at some desk, then invite everyone over to feed.
"Come on, come on, try it," they urge. If you don't succumb, you feel like the bad guy. If you do, well, you risk putting on a few extra pounds, weight you probably don't need.
A Wall Street Journal report sizes up the problem and cites some evidence about the situation. It says:
"Some 29 percent of people on diets say colleagues pressure them to eat more, make fun of their diets or order them restaurant food they know isn't on their diets, according to a recent survey of 325 dieters by Survey Sampling International for Medi-Weightloss Clinics, a Tampa, Fla., franchiser of physician-supervised weight-loss clinics."
For people looking to lose weight, or keep it off, it's serious business.
The report points to a recent study in the journal Obesity that says the attitudes and behavior of peers affect weight loss efforts.
"Among 3,330 participants in a team-based weight-loss competition, including many teams of co-workers, those who reported having positive influence from teammates lost a larger percentage of their body weight than others," the story said.
At the same time, Tricia Leahey, the study's lead author, said, negative attitudes of co-workers can discourage people from trying to drop some pounds.

The Stanislaus County SWAT team swarmed an east Patterson home Tuesday morning, April 5, serving two warrants in relation to a March 23 shooting and arresting a local man.
Johnny Tovar, 22, was arrested at his house at Washburn Street and Weber Avenue on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon shortly before 8 a.m. Tuesday, according to Detective David Hickman of Patterson Police Services and witnesses.
The Special Weapons and Tactics team surrounded the house for more than an hour, smashing a window and pointing a gun inside at one point and using an explosive sound device, police and witnesses said. Police told several residents to stay indoors while the operation was under way, giving some neighbors an early-morning scare.
"I (told people), 'There are a whole bunch of G.I. Joes behind our house,'" said Weber Avenue resident Janie Quiroba, who lives directly around the corner from the raided home.
Quiroba recounted how SWAT officers crawled through her backyard and knocked over a few fence posts to reach her neighbor's yard. One officer climbed a tree near her fence, she said.
Several people in the area also said they heard a loud explosion, which Stanislaus County Sheriff's Capt. Tim Beck attributed to a "flash-bang," a nonlethal grenade that is used to confuse a person inside a building before an arrest.
In addition to arresting Tovar, team members escorted a woman and two girls safely out of the home, said Beck, who heads up the operations division of the sheriff's department, including SWAT.
The arrest is related to a March 23 shooting in which three pedestrians flagged down a car on the 100 block of East Las Palmas Avenue near a Valero service station and then shot at the people inside the car, according to police. Both the passenger and the driver escaped unscathed. The suspects in that case were thought to be possible gang members, according to police reports.
Detectives were able to identify both the shooter and a person accompanying him following an investigation, said Sgt. John Walker of Patterson Police Services. He did not know what role Tovar might have played, and detectives could not be reached for comment because they were investigating another shooting on Wednesday.
A neighbor across the street from the Tovar home, who did not wish to give his name, said he respected local police but thought the SWAT team's actions Tuesday were excessive.
In addition to breaking a window in a 10-year-old girl's room, the unit broke a glass coffee table and a clear glass vase inside the house, he said.
"It's terrible," he said. "I feel really bad for the mother, who is a hardworking woman. People who are suspected of murder are not even treated like this."
The Tovar family could not be reached for comment Tuesday afternoon.
Beck defended the SWAT team's actions, saying the group's job was to make sure that search warrants were executed and that everyone left the house safely, including the people the team was seeking, he said.
"It's easier to pay for a broken window than to deal with a fallen deputy," Beck said.
The county's risk management staff determines whether to cover the costs of damage caused by officers, such as broken windows, he said.
Beck said he did not know how often the SWAT group is used in Patterson, but he said it is sent into action sporadically throughout the county, sometimes not for several weeks and sometimes several times in a month, he said. The sheriff's department goes through a "threat matrix" to determine whether to call in the team, asking questions such as whether a warrant is being issued for gang violence and whether the suspect is known to use guns or has associates who have been arrested for gun possession, Beck said.
Quiroba welcomed the police presence this week. She said she had heard gunshots fired near the corner house a few weeks ago, and someone had stolen marijuana plants about a year ago from the same address.
A nice woman lives in the house, Quiroba said, but she added that she does not know the others who stay there.
After the marijuana theft, a young woman from the house accused the Quirobas of stealing the plants, threatening to shoot someone with a firearm if it happened again, said Rosemarie Samarripa, Quiroba's niece. Several families in the area are well connected and warn each other when police are around, she said.
"This is a very drug-infested neighborhood," she added.
Though Quiroba was happy to see the police intervention this week, she also indicated that Tuesday's morning raid was a frightening experience she will not soon forget.
"Oh my God, I was, like, shaking," she said.

Democrats and Republicans both say the other party is to blame for flight delays as budget cuts force the FAA to furlough air traffic controllers.
WASHINGTON — U.S. Senate leaders are frantically trying to pull together a plan to alleviate widespread airline flight delays - brought about by last month's automatic federal spending cuts - with legislation that could be voted upon as early as Thursday.
The activity is focused on finding ways to eliminate or ease forced furloughs of air traffic controllers prompted by the spending cuts. The House of Representatives could vote soon after but leaders in that chamber first want to see what the Senate produces, fearing a retreat on this issue could open the door to easing other budget cuts.
Related: Summer of discontent? How to cope with more airline delays
One option senators are exploring is attaching legislation to an unrelated Internet sales tax bill currently being debated, a Senate aide said on Thursday.
They are also looking at stand-alone legislation, and are considering giving the Department of Transportation flexibility to transfer existing department funds so that air traffic controllers' salaries can be fully paid, and those periodic furloughs can be stopped.
Another approach would be simply declaring controllers as "essential" personnel who could not be furloughed.
Lawmakers are eager to find a fix before they head out of town for next week's congressional recess. They are concerned about deepening public resentment over the delays caused by the furloughs of controllers.
Airline passengers have grown increasingly irritated over the past week with delays at major hubs like Chicago, New York, Los Angeles and Atlanta. Some have reported multi-hour delays in takeoff times and planes being put in holding patterns in the air, with many pilots blaming furloughs for landing delays.
The National Air Traffic Controllers Association on Thursday said that many of the 1,978 controller trainees are now working full shifts by themselves to help cover staffing shortages.
And airline executives this week ratcheted up their complaints. "This is government not working - capital letters, exclamation point - when we're sitting here holding the traveling public hostage in the midst of sequestration," JetBlue CEO Dave Barger said on a conference call on Thursday.
The FAA has said it had no alternative to furloughing controllers this week after Congress failed to come up with a budget deal that would have averted the $85 billion in across-the-board federal spending cuts.
At the same time, the FAA has emphasized that passenger safety is not at risk. Airlines for America, the trade organization for U.S. airlines, also said on Thursday that the furloughs have not created a safety issue.
According to the Senate aide, the White House is open to Congress dealing promptly with the FAA's funding problem. But the aide said that no decisions had yet been finalized on how to move an FAA measure forward quickly.
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid on Wednesday proposed replacing the budget reductions by claiming savings from the decrease of war spending, but congressional Republicans have rejected the proposal, saying counting war savings is an accounting gimmick.
A more likely fix may be one of the bipartisan pieces of legislation that would give the DOT flexibility to move around funds to pay air traffic controllers.
"These are simply irresponsible cuts that have real and detrimental impacts on the traveling public, on the airline industry, on the hospitality industry and they will cause widespread delays to the air traffic system," Republican Senator Susan Collins of Maine said on the Senate floor. Collins is behind one of the legislative proposals.
While Republicans are joining the effort for a quick fix, many have been skeptical about whether the White House and FAA are taking advantage of flexibility they already have.
Republicans have accused the Obama administration of maximizing the disruptions to try to shift budget blame on Republicans - an allegation the administration has denied. Republicans have created a Twitter hashtag, #Obamaflightdelays, for people to complain about the delays.
House Oversight Committee Chairman Darrell Issa, a California Republican, and House Transportation Committee Chairman Bill Shuster, a Pennsylvania Republican, on Thursday sent a letter to Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood asking for internal documents discussing budget flexibilities. The DOT did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
However, a congressional aide involved in the original automatic spending cut legislation that was enacted in August 2011 told Reuters that the administration cannot under the law shift money from outside accounts to fund the air traffic controller account.
The FAA has said it will have to furlough 47,000 employees for up to 11 days through September 30 in order to save $637 million that is required by the "sequestration," automatic spending cuts that started on March 1 for most federal agencies.
Of those 47,000 workers, almost 15,000 are full-time air traffic controllers or trainees.
The FAA issued an update that said more than 863 delays in the system on Wednesday were attributable to staffing reductions resulting from the furloughs.
Another 2,132 delays were attributed to weather and other factors, the FAA said. The agency said it would work with airlines to minimize delays.
Airlines, many of which are reporting earnings this week, have pushed the government to quickly ease the flight delays caused by the furloughs.
Jeff Smisek, chairman and chief executive of United Continental Holdings Inc, said his company's network operations center is working around the clock to minimize the impact of fewer controllers.
"We are disappointed that the FAA chose this path, that maximizes customer disruptions and damage to airlines instead of choosing a less disruptive method to comply with the budget obligations," Smisek said on a conference call.
Thursday's flurry of activity in Washington followed a meeting late on Wednesday with the top Democrat and Republican on the Senate Commerce Committee, LaHood and FAA Administrator Michael Huerta to discuss what steps Congress could take to provide the FAA with the flexibility it needs to cancel the furloughs.
Senate Commerce Committee Chairman Jay Rockefeller, a West Virginia Democrat, and Senator John Thune, a South Dakota Republican, are considering "a few options" that came out of that conversation, but are not ready to discuss details yet, a congressional aide said.
If a fix were to pass the Senate, it is not clear how the House would respond, especially if it is attached to the Internet sales tax bill, which has faced fierce opposition from many online merchants, including eBay Inc and Overstock.com Inc.
Senator Dick Durbin of Illinois, the second-ranking Senate Democrat who is shepherding the Internet sales tax bill through the Senate, told Reuters on Thursday, "We are working on" ways to deal with an FAA funding fix.
But he added that senators have to consider whether exempting some FAA programs from the tough spending-cut law would be unfair to other agencies and their constituents, who also want to get out from under sequestration.

Leg, foot pain
I was afraid I was doomed to walk as an old lady...
9 comments:
- Anonymous said...
I was using splenda for about a year all the time in everything that I ate and drank but I started having aches in my body, my legs and hands were hurting all the time and then every joint in my body would hurt and my tounge was tingaling on my left side, then I felt like my heart would skip a beat every so often but, when I read some other peoples storys about splenda, I stopped using it. Its been about 3 weeks now...and I am feeling so much better. I sure hope I heal up a 100%.
- SW said...
Whether this has to do with my Splenda consumption or not, I do not know. I'm going to give up using Splenda for a few weeks to see what happens. I use several packets of Splenda a day in my coffee and herb tea. I'm switching to Xylitol now. I have been using Spenda for a couple years now, and everything has seemed just fine until recently. For the last few weeks, I've frequentily woken in the middle of the night with severe, and I mean extremely severe, muscle cramps in my legs and feet. I"ve had to somehow get out of bed and put my feet flat the floor and then stretch my legs. There have been times that the cramping was so bad that my legs and feet were sore and hurt for several days after an episode. I"ve had cramps on occasion years ago, but nothing in comparison to the severity of these cramps.
Other than adding Splenda to my diet, nothing else has changed. I've used a clacium/magnesium supplement off and on for years, but it has not helped in this matter.
I will see if the cramps subside with discontinuance of my use of Splenda or not, and then in a few weeks, I will report back. Has anyone else had severe cramping like this?
Update 12/26/07:
After reading many of the stories on your site, I can say that I have been experiencing lots of other symptoms that I simply did not relate to the Splenda.
For example, I've noticed for several months now that I often feel bloated in my stomach, not intestines. But, I have so much gas, sometimes I can't even go out of the house. It's horrible. I just attributed it to sugar or wheat consumption. When I stop the sugar and wheat, it pretty much goes away--only thing is, I also stop drinking coffee and tea as well, while I do some sort of "cleanse." I decided to try and use sugar in my coffee and see how I feel. Much better! Still some bloat, but it's only been a couple days since stopping the Splenda.
One of the things I read about that others have had problems with is their mental status. Oh MAN! I've been going crazy, and even have recently been receiving SS Disability payments, in part due to this awful depression, unable to mentally focus, (physically too--my eyesight is getting really bad) can't seem to get a grip and do anything. Well, I NEVER was like that before. Yes, most of us have episodes of depression or confusion from time to time, but to stay that way for months on end? My memory has been going, all the ideas I've always had have just disappeared into thin air, I've been wondering around aimlessly in a mental mire. I've lost all my money, property, etc. My family is very concerned, as I am a well-educated professional, and have always been enthusiastic and energetic. I'm concerned too!
In case you are wondering, the other part of my disability is for the extreme herniated disk in my back that caused the most excruciating pain imaginable--and I have a high tolerance to pain. Surgery removed the disk, but I'm still having problems. That's common, but now I'm beginning to wonder if all this has stemmed from, or became exaggerated by, the Splenda consumption.
Once again, I will update all this after I've been off this substance for at least 2 or more weeks. Thanks for allowing me to share, and if this product really is responsible for people's suffering, the word needs to get out! It's unlikely that the FDA will do anything about it, just as they have done nothing about all the injuries from the use of phyenelanamine. (sp?)
Update 02/13/08:
I just wanted to update you on what has happened since I stopped using Splenda. When I was first introduced to Splenda, I thought, "Boy, this is great. Made from sugar, but not a toxic chemical. And no bad aftertaste." Well, the last part was true. But, Splenda turned out to be harmful to me.
As I mentioned, I was having the worst cramps imaginable, for months! They would wake me up in the night. I couldn't get on my feet fast enough to try and stretch them out. It was even starting to cramp up the outside of my legs, just above my ankles. The pain was excruciating!
Well, I stopped the Splenda, and was continuing to have cramps, so I thought, "no, it's not the Spenda." Within a week, however, the cramping began to diminish. It's been almost two months now, and they have completely subsided. I have not had a cramp for about three weeks. Nothing else in my diet, supplements, or life style changed in the least.
If that wasn't good enough, here's the really excellent part of my story. I am no longer confused! I have been on disability, but my mind has cleared up and I'm going back to work next week. This is really amazing! And to think that I lost so much time at work, almost lost my house because I couldn't make the payments, took a toll on taxpayers via SS, and on and on.
So, there will be no more Splenda for me! And I hope this helps others who are having physical or mental problems that just can't be accounted for. I don't need drugs to treat the symptoms of this product. The solution is easy. Just say NO to Splenda!
And, Thank YOU for having the courage and taking your valuable time to make this website and the information available to the world!

The widespread psychological effects of Splenda are simply astounding, just like yours. You will be a renewed human being when the effects finally wear off.
Johnson & Johnson is selling a rattlesnake and a snake bite kit. If you go to their Web site you will see that they blame Splenda's side effects on "lifestyle" causes. For example, the explosive intestinal gas, according to them, is caused by gulping air when you eat! Lucky for you, they sell a cure for gas. Isn't that nice of them?
This is a scam of the first order. The FDA has to be in on it. They must be getting sizable weekly checks to remain quiet and defend Splenda when prompted. The evidence against Splenda is overwhelming.
Welcome back to the land of the living. Spread the word; you're in good company.
Now you can have a Happy New Year!

Here is one Splenda story that included severe leg and foot pain.
Abdominal muscle cramping and heart muscle irregularities are also reported very frequently.
Here is another Splenda story that referred to painful jaw muscles.
Muscles do seem to be affected. Please write back with a follow-up and let us know the results of eliminating Splenda. It can take up to two weeks to be symptom-free.
Read product labels so you can avoid the generic form, sucralose, too. It's in hundreds of products.
Meanwhile, the calcium and magnesium you are taking are often helpful, so is potassium. Warmth from a mattress pad would also help.
- SW said...
Yes, it really is great how things have changed for me since stopping the Splenda. My mind was so foggy I just could hardly function and I was driving myself and my family crazy! Yes, as you said, it is good to be back in the land of the living!

I'm reading all of these blogs and I can relate to soooo many of you. I've been using splenda for almost 3 years in my coffee and heavy chewer of orbit gum. During that time I've had burning tongue, panic attacks, menstral periods have changed to twice per month, fingers and feet joints are painful, gas problems, blurry eyesight, lack of concentration and foggy thoughts and the list could go on.
I've spent $$$$ at doctor's offices checking thyroid, arthritis, dentist office for my tongue, and almost a year of counseling for my panic attacks, high anxiety, severe PMS, etc... Beginning today, I'm going to go splenda free and check my improvement. I'm excited to have found this website b/c I'm 39 years old and for the past 2 years I have been NOT MYSELF. I know it and my husband has even told me. It hurts my feelings when he tells me that even though I know it is true. I've always been very active and also had an upbeat positive outlook. I'm have been so increadibly opposite of that over the past couple years.
I'm really excited to see that there might be a cure to all if it by quitting the splenda! I will check back in a few weeks with an update.
Wish me luck!

I have been using Splenda for 4-5 years. I have leg and foot cramps, and hair loss. The hair loss is the latest thing I am coping with. Have you heard of hair loss before?
- Anonymous said...
I recently discontinued using splenda after I linked it to leg and foot cramps that I was having during the night; the cramps were only relieved after I stood up and walked around, but would return once I was in bed again. Luckily, I was able to associate the cramps with my drinking iced tea with splenda. I have not had the cramps since I discontinued using splenda. However, I have been diagnosed with an enlarged liver and had to have my gallbladder removed recently--gallbladder disease developed within a 12 month period during the time that I was using splenda.
- Anonymous said...
I actually looked up Splenda's side effects after leg cramps at night that would keep me awake. I am on a diet and I have been drinking coffee with Splenda in the morning. I am going to stop for two weeks and see what happens. Its interfering with my sleep and that is not a good thing.

As I moved to Hamburg a while ago I needed some new contact lenses and I decided to try this place out because it is literally 30 seconds away from the office and because of the voucher they had. I was pleasantly surprised from the very beginning by how professional and scrupulous they are. In fact it took quite a while to find the right contact lenses and I had to come back several times and they were always super helpful. Recently I needed a new pair of lenses for my glasses, obviously I came back here and they made me a new visit for free, ordered and gave me the glasses really quickly. I always had only good experiences with them so I must suggest this place if you need an optician.
Optik Renken was located right downstairs from my old office so it was quite convenient for me. I had just received some new glasses, however from another location, and they were not fitting right so I just walked in and asked if they could readjust them. They were very friendly and fixed what was wrong. I also needed some contact lens solution and was pleasantly surprised how the lady presented me with some choices and their prices. Though I did not get my glasses from them, I did look around and they have a great selection. I will not only be coming back here again for all my eye glass/contact lens needs but I would recommend them to anyone!

Komodo dragon bites 2 in officeFebruary 07,2013Komodo dragon
bites 2 in office
JAKARTA, Indonesia Two people have been hospitalized after being attacked by a giant Komodo dragon that wandered into the office of a wildlife park in eastern Indonesia.
An official at Komodo National Park, Heru Rudiharto, said Wednesday the 6½-foot-long Komodo dragon attacked a park ranger after walking into the office on Tuesday.
It then attacked another park employee who came to help him. Both were badly bitten and were evacuated to a hospital on Bali Island.
Rudiharto said the park ranger also was attacked by a Komodo dragon in 2009.
Endangered Komodo dragons can grow longer than 10 feet. Fewer than 4,000 are believed to be alive. They are found in the wild primarily on the eastern Indonesian islands of Komodo, Padar and Rinca.MORE IN Wire NewsCANADENSIS, Pa.
