Overview Reviews Details Articles & Videos by Ralph Graves With its carabiner, the Urchin can go everywhere with you. Want to enjoy your music anywhere – even in the shower? Then grab a BOOM Urchin and go. This portable speaker features an interchangeable water-resistant silicone cover, making it ideal for indoor or outdoor use. Just stick the Urchin's suction cup mount in your shower stall and you can sing as you soap. Made for motion This is one portable system that's designed to go anywhere. The durable Urchin comes with a sturdy brushed metal carabiner, so you can clip it to your bag, backpack, or belt. And there's an included adhesive-backed screw mount, so you can easily attach the Urchin to your car's dashboard. Bluetooth connectivity for words and music The Urchin lets you wirelessly stream audio from your Bluetooth-enabled smartphone, tablet, laptop or other device. A built-in microphone turns the Urchin into a wireless speakerphone – a handy feature even when you're not in the shower. Boom goes the dynamite sound The Urchin might be small, but it packs a sonic punch. The two full-range speakers deliver clean, focused sound with solid bass. And the system uses Bluetooth v2.1+EDR, an advanced form of wireless technology that ensures strong connections and improved signal reception. Convenient charging The Urchin's built-in battery lasts up to eight hours of continuous use. And the system's easy to charge. Its USB charging cable can either be connected to its AC power adapter, or plugged directly into your computer. From our review A rough-and-ready speaker system comes clean The Urchin's made for mobility, and is durable enough to work just about anywhere — on a ski slope, at the beach, or on a rock climb. It's got enough volume and punch to be heard in all of those situations. And when you're ready to clean up after your outdoor adventures, the BOOM Urchin can even accompany your singing in the shower. - Ralph Graves, Crutchfield Blog and Product Review Editor Product Highlights:powered speaker for use with for smartphones, tablets, and other portable devices with built-in BluetoothBluetooth v2.1+EDR for strong connections and improved signal receptionwireless range: 30 feetbuilt-in microphone for hands-free wireless speakerphone operationshock and water resistantinterchangeable silicone skintwo built-in full-range speakersminijack auxiliary input for laptops, handheld game consoles, and other portable devices (minijack cable included)built-in rechargeable battery lasts up to 8 hourscarabiner, suction cup mount, and adhesive-backed screw mountUSB charging cable with AC power adapter4"W x 6-15/16"H x 1-13/16"Dwarranty: 1 yearOur 60-day money-back guarantee BOOM Urchin Reviews Average Customer Review: 27 reviews Review this product Submit a review and then enter to win a $350 rewards card Filter by rating: 5 Star: (0) 4 Star: (0) 3 Star: (0) 2 Star: (0) 1 Star: (0) Review this product: Thanks for taking the time to share your experiences about this product.

Awesome sound and portability. Attach to your golf bag or throw it in basket on your bike. Great product Pros: Sound, ease of use and hands free for phone use Cons: None Was this review helpful? Yes No Good Written By Anil, 77077 on Tuesday, August 26, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Worth every penny Was this review helpful? Yes No great sound Written By lickenbeaver, Electric City, Wa on Monday, August 18, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) The sound was even better then i thought it would be. I had about 10 teenagers around when i firs turned it on and they all want one now. Pros: very ez to hook to phone, looks great Cons: it would not charge but Crutchfield sent me out a new one right away Was this review helpful? Yes No Great Product Written By DonS, Charlottesville, VA on Tuesday, August 05, 2014 Purchased the Urchin for use in my boat while fishing. It was easy to sync with my blue tooth device and the sound is great. The battery life is excellent. I can fish all day on a single charge. I highly recommend the Urchin. Pros: Easy sync to Bluetooth device. Great sound. long battery life. Easy to use. Cons: None 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Boom Urchin Written By jknoxville, Knoxville TN on Monday, May 12, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Very easy and rugged. Good battery power. Acceptable sound quality but bass\loudness is average Pros: Easy to link-Rugged and cool looking. Sound not great but acceptable. Good battery life on a charge Cons: Not as good sound as BOSE etc but respectable for the money. Was this review helpful? Yes No Big sound from a small package Written By Matt, Bridgewater, Virginia on Wednesday, April 30, 2014 I bought this for when my iPad isn't loud enough and it's quite an improvement. Bass isn't earth-shattering but can be improved by mounting it on something hollow. Volume is respectable, given the size, and it plays at maximum without distorting. I use it to listen to podcasts in the shower now. It's water resistant but I still try not to get it wet. It has a threaded insert on the back that accepts a standard 1/4" bolt. You can use that to make a custom stand or put it on a camera tripod. Battery life seems excellent, playing many hours between charges. Overall, I am very happy with the features and performance of the Boom Urchin. Pros: Small, rugged, easy pairing, long battery life, good sound, water resistant Cons: Not the cheapest solution to your portable sound needs, but a good solution. Was this review helpful? Yes No Boom Urchin Written By jtc1984, Sunny Isles Beach, Fl on Friday, December 27, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)

This unit has a much deeper sound than others I have experienced. Was this review helpful? Yes No Great Portable Radio Written By Dan the Man, Clearwater, FL on Monday, July 01, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Great portable radio. Connects easily with great range. Great accessories for hanging in shower and cliping onto backpack. Rubber cover protects well on the road and at the beach. Volume is good, but wish it was a bit louder. It does scream in the shower though. I would recommend if you looking for something to take with you, without worrying about it breaking. Was this review helpful? Yes No BOOM Urchin Written By silver, california on Sunday, June 16, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) one of the best sound small wireless speaker i had bought and i own about 3. it doesnt have the loudness like bose small speaker. But this one u can drop it and have it next to your pool and nothing would have to it. Pros: good sounds for its size and its bult strong. Cons: i believe it doesnt have a a plug to use your headphones. Was this review helpful? Yes No Just what I was looking for! Written By D.Reynolds, Greensboro, NC on Tuesday, May 28, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I've been hesitant to spend money on a bluetooth speaker for my Samsung Galaxy 3 because of poor reviews by the tech sites. When I saw the Boom Urchin in the catalog, I knew I could trust Crutchfield. I read some reviews & ordered it, & I'm so glad I did. The sound quality is really great-far beyond my expectations! The price is reasonable, especially with free shipping & no tax from Crutchfield. For me, it's the perfect size, with a silicone skin to protect it and many ways to make it portable- it comes with a carabiner, hooks, & sticky mount. With a ten-hour battery, I can enjoy quality sound everywhere I go now. Pros: Super durable, easy to take anywhere, excellent value, great & consistent sound Cons: Emits a really loud blip sound when turning it on, colors might be too bright for some but it also comes in black Was this review helpful? Yes No Great Speaker Written By Mike Q., North Andover, MA on Tuesday, May 14, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I bought this speaker for my teenage daughter, who swims/coaches on a synchronized swimming team. The girls practice their routines to music both in the water and on the pool deck ... so a durable, watertight speaker is essential. This product fits the bill, and has outstanding sound as well ... much better than the competing $200 bluetooth speaker I use. Pros: Sound Quality, Water Resistance Cons: Pricey, but worth it. Was this review helpful? Yes No Sounds good Written By DP, New Orleans on Wednesday, April 10, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Seems durable. I bought this for the beach so the water resistant feature sold me. Sound is good for its size. 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No a portable concert Written By Bruce S, Woodstock on Thursday, March 28, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) The Boom Urchin is an excellent way to listen to your music while on the go. I had some hesitation about ordering a portable bluetooth speaker. The speakers i had heard in the past were small but sounded aweful and were cheaply made. I felt better about the order after i learned that Boom is a company owned by the same company that owns polk audio. When i received it i pulled the packaging out of the box and right away i could tell it was heavier than i had anticipated and when i opened it the speaker was bigger than i thought as well. The speaker isn't too big though, just right in my opinion. The speaker feels very well made and durable. The directions to use it are very simple. I plugged it in and let it charge for about 4 hours and it was good to go. The sound this device puts out is AMAZING!! It simply blows away any other bluetooth speaker of its size. The clarity even when cranked up is very good and the speaker will get very loud. Great mids and highs , even the bass is passable for a unit of this size. Very nice product , a bit pricey but you get what you pay for. 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No QUALITY!! Written By Oz, Boulder,Co on Tuesday, March 12, 2013 I have had the jambox for a year now and as soon as I got my Urchin I gave away the jambox!

Its super loud and just what I need when I'm on the go. love that it is water proof, and can't wait to take it snowboarding to really put it to the test! Pros: Water proof and dope sound quality. portable and has skins that can be removed to make it custom. Cons: None! 1 out of 1 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Goodbye Jambox, Hello Urchin Written By CL, Durham, NH on Friday, March 08, 2013 A year ago I purchased a Jambox and thought I was in paradise. I came across an article reviewing the Urchin online and was intrigued by the water resistant and drop resistant properties of the device. Also I found the different mounts for the shower and carabiner extremely convenient. In the end I decided to pre-order one and I couldn't be happier with my purchase. Not only is it more durable and better looking, it sounds better too! For anyone on the go, this is one accessory that you definitely cannot live without! Pros: Water resistant, drop resistant, dust resistant, long battery life, loud, compatibility with all devices.

Brett Jackson is red hot right now ending a HR shy of the cycle but he isn't the only prospect in Iowa on a tear as Josh Vitters hit another HR and added a double to boot. This is one of the best streaks of Vitters career and he has resurrected his prospect status as far as I am concerned. Rizzo also went 2-4.
Nobody did anything.
Arismedy Alcantara went 2-5 and is now hitting .305 in the FSL. This guy has taken a big step forward this season. Rubi Silva was 3-5 and Ryan Searle struck out 3 in 3 scoreless innings.
Javier Baez had quite the night crushing a 400 + HR and adding a pair of singles as well. Kevin Goldstein was in attendance and noted that when the Chiefs were up 13-0 Baez decided to swing at a 3-0 pitch and took one to the ribs for it. Goldstein seemed to think this was deserved because it violated the sacred rules of baseball. I will probably have to defer to Bob Brenly since he is the official bookkeeper of the unwritten rules. All that drama aside its great to see Baez swinging the bat as it just adds another prospect to a system that is on the rise. May was a pretty great month for most of our system and on Monday I'll have another update on our top 20.

Orlando Science Center and National Geographic Partner on New Digital Theater
Premieres Meerkats 3D On Saturday, March 2
ORLANDO, Fla. (Feb. 22, 2013)—The Orlando Science Center will partner with National Geographic Cinema Ventures (NGCV) to rebrand their newly-renovated Digital Adventure Theater as the "Digital Adventure Theater, Presented by National Geographic." The partnership will launch on Saturday, March 2 with the premiere of "Meerkats 3D." With this branding partnership, the Science Center will gain special access to one of the world's largest giant-screen film libraries that includes award-winning films in 2D and 3D digital formats.
As part of the partnership, National Geographic Cinema Ventures will produce or release two new titles each year, allowing the Science Center a first look at films in development and the opportunity to be among the first to release them. The Orlando Science Center will become a premiere location for NGCV films with exclusivity in Central Florida. NGCV will also provide marketing support to the theater.
Newly renovated, the Digital Adventure Theater is fully equipped with 7.1 surround sound and ultra high definition 4K resolution, capable of producing an image nearly four times the quality of standard high definition. Guests can experience both educational documentaries and Hollywood features all in stunning, immersive 3D. The theater utilizes the XpanD X101 series of 3D active glasses which produce higher picture quality, increased depth, and less blur than passive 3D systems used by most cinemas.
The first National Geographic film to premiere at the Digital Adventure Theater will be "Meerkats 3D" on March 2. Follow the story of meerkat matriarch Klinky and her clan as they take on the challenges of living in the unforgiving Kalahari Desert. This tale of strength, survival, family and fun will delight audiences of all ages!
Following daytime screenings of "Meerkats 3D" on March 2, "The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey" will premiere that evening at the Digital Adventure Theater. Fully immerse yourself in Middle Earth as you join the reluctant hobbit Bilbo (Martin Freeman) and his friend Gandalf (Ian McKellen) as they set off on an adventure to the Lonely Mountain with a spirited group of dwarfs to take on a dragon named Smaug. The movie joins "Wreck-it Ralph 3D" in the Science Center's lineup of Hollywood features.
Orlando Science Center guests will have access to unlimited educational films, including "Meerkats 3D," and one Hollywood release with general admission to the Science Center.
National Geographic films and other educational films will screen daily; Hollywood films will screen on Friday, Saturday and Sunday evenings beginning at 5:10 p.m.
For more information, please call 407-514-2000 or visit www.osc.org.

"Beautiful Dog Memorial Personalised Crystal Ornament"
By Sonya Walker
Comments: This is a lovely gift idea for someone who has lost a dearly beloved pet. I gave this to my nephews (7 and 14 years old) to hang on their Christmas tree after the passing of their 14 year old dog. They were so pleased to have his life remembered and honored. The quality of this crystal ornament is superb. It will certainly be cherished for many more Christmases to come. International delivery was quick and the product was well packaged. Will certainly be buying more products from Memorable Gifts... More details

The Makira-Masoala Landscape is the largest tracts of intact rainforest remaining in Madagascar, an area of more than 2,500 square miles cradling a vast ocean bay. More than half of the country's floral diversity is found in these hilly forests, including 60 different species of palms. This pristine area is home to critically endangered species like the Madagascar serpent eagle, the fox-size carnivore known as the fossa, and the silky sifaka, one of the world's most endangered primates. It's also the only wild spot to find red-ruffed lemurs, which inhabit Masoala's tall fruit trees.
Once a part of the African continent, Madagascar drifted into the Indian Ocean more than 100 million years ago. On this isolated island, animals and plants evolved without outside interferences, including that of humans. As a result, Madagascar provides sanctuary for many types of plants and animals that exist nowhere else on Earth. Protecting Makira-Masoala is crucial to maintaining the island's status as a global hotspot for biodiversity. More than 1 percent of the world's species reside here.
In collaboration with the government of Madagascar, WCS's Makira REDD+ Project will help finance the long-term conservation of one of Madagascar's most pristine remaining rainforests, home to rare and threatened biodiversity. It will also help enhance the economic wellbeing of neighboring communities.
WCS is proud to partner with the government of Madagascar on an innovative project to help preserve Makira Natural Park.
WCS applauds the inclusion of forestry provisions in the American Clean Energy and Security Act, which paves the way to comprehensive climate change policy.
To save Madagascar's pristine forests and combat climate change, WCS and the government of Madagascar agree to launch a massive carbon sale, totaling more than nine million tons.

Former Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords is back in Washington, pushing for tougher gun laws.
Giffords was among the key players testifying before a Senate committee Wednesday.
Senators had a fresh reminder about the consequences of gun violence: Hadiya Pendleton.
Pendleton, a Chicago honor student and performer in last week's inaugural festivities, was killed Tuesday at park near her home.
As the gun laws fight raged on Capitol Hill another shooting at an office in Phoenix, Arizona left several wounded.
Giffords, the former Arizona Congresswoman critically wounded by a gunman, pleaded for action.
"Be bold. Be courageous. Americans are counting on you," she urged the Senate committee.
Giffords' husband, Mark Kelly, argued for universal background checks to keep criminals from getting guns.
"She would not be here today if we had stronger background checks," he testified.
The hearing on how to prevent gun violence is in response to the shooting massacre in Newtown, Connecticut last month.
President Obama has called for tough laws, including an assault weapons ban and limits on high capacity magazines.
The National Rifle Association intensely opposes any new legislation.
"Law-abiding gun owners will not accept blame for the acts of violent or deranged criminals. Nor do we believe the government should dictate what we can lawfully own and use to protect our families," the NRA's Wayne LaPierre told the Senate panel.
Conservative republicans are backing the NRA.
"I fail to see how passing laws the federal government wont enforce will make America any safer," said Texas Senator John Cornyn.
Since the Newtown shooting lawmakers have introduced at least eight gun control bills.
The area with the most agreement seems to be around a need to re-examine mental health care.

Bucs push Clemson to overtime, but fall in extra frame, 100-86
Monday, December 15, 2003CLEMSON, S.C. (Dec. 15, 2003) (AP) - Clemson rallied from a six-point deficit in the final 1:16 of regulation then held on in overtime to beat East Tennessee State 100-86 on Monday night. The win snapped a three-game losing streak for the Tigers (4-3). Meanwhile, the Bucs suffered their first loss in five games. Clemson dominated the boards, pulling down 28 more rebounds than the Buccaneers (5-2). But that was offset by 25 Clemson turnovers. Sharrod Ford led the Tigers with 21 points and 14 rebounds. Shawan Robinson added 19 points and Chris Hobbs had 13 points and 13 rebounds. Senior forward Zakee Wadood (Lonoke, Ark.) led East Tennessee State with 24 points and a school record 10 steals. Wadood, who came into tonight's game six points short of 1,000 for his career, became the 22nd Buccaneer player to reach the milestone. Sophomore forward Ben Rhoda (Dayton, Ohio) added 19 and sophomore forward Brad Nuckles (Council, Va.) scored 17 for the Buccaneers. Clemson shot 55 percent (34-of-62) from the field, hitting 64 percent (16-of-25) of its shots in the second half and all three field goal attempts in overtime. The Tigers trailed 82-76 with 1:16 remaining in regulation. Vernon Hamilton hit a free throw, then converted a turnover into a 3-point play with 51.9 left to cut the Buccaneer lead to 82-80. Olu Babalola's short jumper with 8.9 seconds remaining tied the game at 82 and Tim Smith's layup attempt at the buzzer rolled off the rim for East Tennessee State. The Buccaneers scored first in overtime, but the Tigers went on to outscore East Tennessee State 18-4 in the extra period, including making 11 of their 13 free throws. ETSU continues on the road to face in-state rival Tennessee Tech Wednesday night at 8 p.m. from Cookeville, Tenn. The Bucs return home Saturday afternoon to face UVA-Wise at 2:30 p.m. from Memorial Center in the second half of a men's-women's doubleheader. The ETSU Lady Bucs play Southern Conference foe Wofford at Noon in the first game of the day.

DERBY CENTER–Tyler Tinker is man of multiple passions.
Two of those passions happen to go hand in hand with each other; Fitness and professional wrestling.
Tyler, after moving back from Florida last year, intensified his wrestling schedule, appearing in independent shows throughout New England, but something was still missing.
With a degree in exercise science, he also went to work as a trainer with Ben Warstler at Ben's Bootcamp in Derby.
After working with Warstler for several months, Tyler offered to buy Ben's Derby location on John Taplin Rd.
With the dominating performance by Brad Keselowski at Loudon in the rear view mirror, the 2014 Cup chase is nearing its stretch run.
The haves and have nots will be sorted out in the next few weeks, and the process may be just too much for some drivers and well within the means of several others.
Jimmy Johnson had a tough one in New Hampshire, blowing two tires early and crashing for a 42nd place finish, but the defending champ is set to make another run at the top prize, and as his record states, don't ever bet against him.
It's been a solid year for Jeff Gordon.
NEWPORT–With perfect weather, great playing conditions and group of talented golfers, the 2014 Newport Daily Express Member/Guest Tournament at the Newport Country Club was quite the weekend for our area golfers and their partners.
On Sunday afternoon, after it was all said and done, brothers Shawn and Mike Smith defeated Adam Hiliker and Nick Vosnick in a two hole final to become crowned the 2014 champions.
"I was pretty confident," said Shawn when asked how he was feeling during the final. "We were playing some pretty good golf and I was confident that we could win it."
Here are the flights for the 2014 Member-Guest Tournament:

NEWPORT–It is not uncommon to go up to a golfer and have them tell you that they have been playing golf for more than half of their life.
When I met up with Austin Giroux and asked him how long he had been playing, he said most of his life.
Here is the difference:
Austin is a ten years old.
He started golfing when he was three.
So, to say that Austin has been golfing for most of his life is a pretty darn accurate statement.
Austin has had quite the summer so far, and I made the trek up to the Newport Country Club to sit down and chat with Derby Elementary School fifth grader.
ORLEANS–The 3rd Annual Northeast Kingdom Junior Golf Tour swung into action on Thursday afternoon at the Orleans Country Club.
For the second year in a row, the day began with a one hour clinic that had OCC Club Pro Josh Olney and Newport Country Club Pro Kin O'Neil giving the kids instruction and helpful points on improving their golf technique.
NEWPORT-Basketball camp on a warm July week has become a tradition in the town of Newport.
What started out as the Lake Mephremaggog Basketball Camp forty-four years has ago has evolved into the Vermont Triple Threat Basketball Camp, and under the direction of of John Gunn, the program is as strong as ever.
Gunn, who started with program as a coach in the 1990's and has since moved on to be a director in the new millennium, explained the camp's mission when it comes to teaching the game of basketball.
NEWPORT–The OEC Lightning Junior Legion baseball team squared off against the Montreal Rockies in a non-league doubleheader on Sunday afternoon at North Country Union High School.
After dropping the first contest 11-7, the Lightning's bats came alive in game two, as they went on to earn the split, defeating the older Rockies 15-11.
WILLISTON–Former Jay Peak Club Pro and Current Stowe Mountain Club Assistant Pro Dave Jankowski teamed up with a trio of North Country high school golfers, Alex Giroux, Katie Goulet and Tyler Smith, to play at the Vermont PGA Pro-Junior Champions event at the Williston Country Club on June 30th.
The end result was an extremely satisfying one for the quartet, as they shot a 137, edging out teams from Vermont National and Country Club of Barre by one stroke to take home the Gross title.

Rusted Root Tickets- The Roots of RockThese roots, though, are deeply latched into the soil of the music industry with a sense of variety rather than history. The band originally formed in Pittsburgh is called Rusted Root, and wait till you get a load of the music! Featuring Michael Glabicki on guitar and vocals, Liz Berlin on vocals and percussion, Patrick Norman on bass guitar and vocals, Jim Donovan on drums and percussion, John Buynak on percussion and winds, and Jim DiSpirito on percussion. That's a lot of percussion, isn't it? There's a reason why. Needless to say, the label Polygram picked up the band for their debut album in 1994.
Rusted Root Tickets - The CredentialsWhen the debut When I Woke arrived, everyone was blown away with the music. Powerful singles included 'Send Me on My Way' and 'Ecstasy.' Root kept moving on with a second album entitled Remember in 1996 and continued the success of this unique band. Rusted Root kept on pulling tracks into the fold of the music industry as far as 2009, the album of that year entitled Stereo Rodeo.
Rusted Root Tickets - Where the Music Came FromThis is why Rusted Root became so acclaimed in quality. With these remarkably talented musicians exploding on the creative scene, the truth of the Root is you're looking at a combination of the Grateful Dead's jam-style rock 'n roll and the percussive sounds of Africa, the Middle East, and even Latin America! Now that's a unique combination.

Kosher Bread
|Strawberry Bread
From The Amish Cooks Baking Book by Lovina Eicher with Kevin Williams
When I was a child, my first job was picking strawberries. I started when I was in sixth or seventh grade and did it until I was around sixteen or seventeen. My sisters and I would go pick berries with some other Amish children. We would go pick strawberries in the morning until the sun got too hot, always before lunch. Each of us would have two buckets: One would be to pick for our job, and the other would be for secondsstrawberries not good enough to pick and sell but still good enough to take home and eat. We had to fill the 4-quart buckets and take them to the end of the row, and theyd give us a token for each full bucket. Wed then cash in the tokens for our pay. If you were a fast picker, you could earn a lot. We would take home our seconds and make things out of them, or just eat them fresh. We home-canned a lot of them into strawberry pie fillings and strawberry jam.
2 large eggs
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a 5 by 9-inch pan and set aside.
In a large bowl, beat the eggs until foamy. Add the oil, sugar, vanilla, and almond extract to the eggs and mix well. In another bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Add to the oil mixture and stir until just barely moistened. Add the strawberries and nuts and lightly mix, being careful not to over mix.
Pour into the prepared pan and bake until nicely browned and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 50 minutes to 1 hour. If it begins to brown too quickly, place aluminum foil over the top of the bread.
This bread freezes well for long-term storage or will keep 3 or 4 days in a sealed container.
Yield: Serves 68
Recipes: Bread, Strawberry Bread, Parve, Kosher

In 1972, Jean Gedouin, a visionary entrepreneur, became fascinated by scientific research that showed the benefits of seawater on the skin, and he created Phytomer. Phytomer has one of the only cosmetics laboratories capable of transforming the marine ingredients found in raw materials into products, using entirely natural procedures. 40 years on, driven by the same passion for the sea, Phytomer is now more than ever the embodiment of marine cosmetics of the future. Unique products which are aptly defined by the brand's three bywords: ocean, science and beauty.
Deep beneath the murky waters of the sea lies a multitude of plant life and algae that have skin- enhancing properties. The team of experts at Phytomer research and responsibly harvest these ingredients, transforming them into marine-based skin care products inspired by the ocean. They offer a full line of firming and sculpting treatments for the body and a deeply-hydrating and nourishing skin care line for the face. These products not only moisturize and nourish, they soothe the senses. No wonder spas and salons trust the skin care expertise of Phytomer.
Phytomer Rich Thermo-Protective deeply hydrates moisture-deprived skin. It uses the marine power of a fiber derived from algae to hold in essential moisture, giving skin greater smoothness and protection against moisture loss. This intense marine-based moisturizer gives your skin protection against environmental and temperature changes like wind and low humidity that rob it of moisture.
Phytomer Doux Visage - Velvet Cleansing Cream removes make-up and impurities using the skin-enhancing power of aromatic marine water to soothe and calm sensitive skin. It's made to cleanse without robbing your skin of moisture or causing irritation. It's the perfect way to prepare your skin for further treatments and is suitable for all skin types.
Phytomer Seaweed Soap removes dead skin cells as it deeply cleanses your skin, melting away the day's impurities. With its light ocean fragrance, you'll feel close to the sea as you immerse your skin in its emollient-rich lather. It contains palm kernel oil and vegetable glycerin to keep your skin smooth and soft once you step out of the shower.

Chemical Industry Weekly News Round-Up, October 1
3:21 PM MDT | October 1, 2010 | Vincent Valk
This Week on CW: European regulatory authorities have decided not to revise standards for bisephenol-A (BPA) intake. An advisory panel to the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) found available data "do not provide any convincing evidence of neurobehavioral toxicity of BPA." ACC's third-quarter outlook was somewhat pessimistic. The "recovery has waned," the group noted, as it revised its forecast 2010 U.S. chemicals output downward. Omnova, which recently announced plans to acquire Eliokem, saw a big fall in earnings, to 8 cts/share, or $3.5...

Ana was unable to reach the final of the Mutua Madrid Open as she fell 6-4, 6-3 to world No.2 Maria Sharapova of Russia. The 16th seed had her chances in a close opening set but she could not take advantage of them, converting just one out of four break opportunities.
Ana made a good impression during the early stages of the match. She opened the contest with a hold to 15 and set the pace in the early exchanges. Ana tested the Sharapova serve in the fourth game as she earned two break points, but she was unable to convert despite being helped by three double faults from the Russian.
All of the following three games went against serve: in the first instance, Ana managed to undo a break in the sixth game, but she could not recover from a third loss of serve, which proved fatal as the Russian served out the set.
Ana also made the better start in set two. Unfortunately for the 25-year-old, she could not consolidate an early break, with the pair leveling at 3-3.
The seventh game was crucial for the outcome of the match: Ana held two game points to go 4-3 up, but she was eventually broken when the world No.2 produced a classy lob shot.
The Russian lifted her level as the battle progressed and she wrapped up the match in fine style, adding another break in game nine. With today's triumph, the Russian extends her winning streak on clay to 21 and she scores her 500th professional victory.
Meanwhile, Ana heads to Rome for the Internazionali BNL d'Italia.

So Windows 8 RTM launched yesterday and lots of people installed their copy from MSDN. I did the same but after the installation i couldn't get my copy to activate. I kept receiving an error 0×80070005 when i wanted to activate my windows copy.
The problem is that you didn't have to fill in your key during the installation and now Windows 8 is trying to activate with a default key which is failing.
You can fix this in a few easy steps:
- Press the "Windows" key on your keyboard or go back to the "Metro" start screen
- type "slui 3" and press enter
- a popup shows up where you can enter your new key. enter this key and press activate
- Your copy of windows 8 is now activated
Enjoy windows 8!

And while the show has long been over, band members Adam Chance, John Martin and Mark McLemore and brothers Jeremy Lister, Jonathan Lister and Richie Lister are still making music.
The men are set to release their new album "Southern Autumn Nostalgia" on Tuesday. To celebrate, members plan to perform the album front to back at 8 p.m. today at The High Watt at Mercy Lounge. Tickets are $12.
"It's a little different," says Jeremy Lister of the album. "A lot of a cappella music is a sort of arrangement of other people's songs and this album is all original that we've written together and it's not so much in that niche a cappella market. It's more artistic, more of a soulful album. The album has a wide variety of songs. Toward the end, we do some a cappella heavy metal. You'll have to hear it."
The album will be available on iTunes, Amazon.com and www.streetcornersymphony.com, and at the band's shows.

About a month after it opened its doors, the Costco store at the Westfield Wheaton shopping mall has brought in new businesses and now new customers to a part of the mall that has needed a boost.
Michael Pierre, a manager at the Friendly Faces Barber Shop, said the southern part of the mall — where Costco now sits along with Dick's Sporting Goods and near Sears — was once nearly empty.
The introduction of Costco on April 10, however, has changed that, he said.
"It's great," Pierre said. "It's more people, more opportunity for business."
While the store hasn't seen a major increase in its customers, Pierre said, the customer traffic around the barber shop has increased significantly, exposing more people to the business.
"It's not tapering off at all," he said.
Customer traffic at the mall has generally increased following Costco's arrival, said Ken Buckner, the mall's marketing director, though he said he could not divulge the exact numbers.
"So far, it's been a solid, significant increase," Buckner said.
Costco also helped draw in new businesses keen for a spot near the store, he said.
There was "a ton of interest from retailers once the Costco deal was in place," Buckner said, resulting in 12 new signed leases at the mall.
Martin Mayorga, founder and president of Mayorga Coffee, said his coffee shop in the mall — which opened the day after Costco opened — is the smallest of the company's Rockville and Oxen Hill stores but has the same roughly 12 to 14 employees as each of the others.
The store's sales have been about 25 percent higher than those of the other non-airport locations, Mayorga said, a fact he largely attributes to the Wheaton store's location directly across from Costco in the mall.
"It's funny because the footprint is smaller, but everything else is bigger," he said.
Mayorga said his company has sold products in Costco stores and recognized the boost that could come from a location near the wholesale store.
"We were excited and interested in going there because Costco was there," he said. "We know what kind of foot traffic they bring in."
The Banner's Hallmark store near Costco has experienced a postive change, said manager Duc Duong.
Duong said that — compared to the same day in 2012 — the store saw a 161 percent increase in its sales on Costco's grand opening day April 10.
Since then, he said, the store has seen a 30- to 70- percent increase in its daily sales.
"We've seen a huge increase in customer traffic and sales," he said.
Duong said the store — which has been in its current mall location about seven years — experienced a slight decrease in sales after the Hecht's department store that once occupied the new Costco location left years ago.
Customers assumed part of the mall was closed, and there would be days when "we weren't busy at all," he said.
While he said he couldn't disclose information related to customer traffic, Pat Fahey — general manager for the Wheaton Costco — said the store is "nice and healthy," with customer traffic on par with the company's Greenbelt and Gaithersburg locations.
Fahey said he spoke informally with about 20 owners and managers of mall businesses who say they are "optimistic" about the added customer traffic.
"It was kind of like the dead end of the mall if you will," he said.
