Irish Fisherman's Sweater 8 8
could have worn as a dress Material was not at all what I expected after reading the reviews. It was so long It could have been a dress--material felt like plastic. I was so looking forward to wearing this sweater. June 12, 2013
Innisheer special I have always admired these Irish sweaters but did not like the heavy scratchy wool of the original design. However, it seems that a genius Irish sweater designer decided to use the "fisherman" design with a lighter softer wool. So, to my delight I discovered this on a recent trip to Ireland. The updated version is incredibly soft, light, and warm. Since I only bought one in Ireland, I decided to look for more once we returned home to the U.S. And, low and behold, good old dependable Vt. Country Store has them at a very reasonable price. May 23, 2013
Excellent quality I've been buying these Irish wool sweaters for years and they are great. They last for years and are very warm. I'm glad Vermont Country Store is carrying them. February 25, 2013
Fisherman's Sweater is a winner! I love this sweater! It has been quite chilly here in Southern California lately and the sweater does what it is supposed to do -- keeps the warm in. It is also extremely attractive. The blue color is just my shade! January 10, 2013
great sweater perfect for riding around in a convertable in the deep south in winter. January 4, 2013
She loves it! Bought this sweater for my daughter for Christmas to replace a beloved but worn out fisherman's sweater. She squealed with delight when she opened it. I ordered the cream colored sweater and it has nice colored flecks in it. It appears that it will match virtually everything in her closet, is comfortable, and is, most importantly, WARM. Only comment is that it runs a bit small. My daughter usually wears a size 8 in misses clothes and the Small ( recommended for women's sizes 8-10) just barely fit. We debated returning it for a medium but decided that the shoulders and arms would then be too big. Perhaps a separate women's version could be developed? January 1, 2013
Beautiful knit Bought this as a Christmas present for my beau. Impeccable, heirloom quality. Just be mindful of sizing. I didn't read that it's unisex and so I ordered his usual L. I have to return it for an XL. Small hassle, but a beautiful sweater. December 27, 2012
Bithday Surprise. My husband had an irish sweater that was put in the washer which ruined it forever. This sweater that came was a surprise for his birthday. It is not only warm but beautiful pattern in an oatmeal color that he really loved. Thank you! November 13, 2012

By: Nathalie
It was the middle of the afternoon, and my master had ordered me to meet him in a café. As I arrived, I saw that he was already there, seated, and waiting for me. I walked up to him, and sat on the chair opposite, careful to let my skirt ride so that my buttocks were directly on the seat. That had ever been my master's order, and I understood why all the more after I had read the Story of O. My pussy should never be covered, always available and stimulated. Any contact was good for it, and so as usual, I let out a small gasp sitting down. It seemed arousal came faster and faster these days.We shared a quiet cup of coffee, chatting idly about the day we had spent. After a while, though, he said:
— Take the scarf off.
I did, knowing that without it everybody could see my collar. But nobody much seemed to pay attention to us. My master then pushed a light travel bag towards me, on the floor.
— Go to the restroom, and put these on. Leaving the door open, of course.
I took hold of the bag and got up. Went downstairs to the restroom. There were only two stalls, one for men, the other for women, opening on the landing. Anyone coming down would see me. Hoping there would be no scandal, I stripped then opened the bag. "Slut"-printed stockings, a leather garter belt, and a small tank top that stopped just underneath my breasts, saying "Soldes" (meaning "On sale"). I had been with my master when he had obtained that – from a store mannequin, on the last day of the summer sales. We had walked into the store, he had asked for the shirts, and made me put one on right there. Then he took out a felt-tip and wrote down my mobile phone number.
We strolled all afternoon, and I couldn't tell if people were looking at me for the shirt, or for my nipples underneath the flimsy fabric – after all, it had never been intended for wearing. But it got me a few calls. Anyway, once dressed back, I put my boots and my coat back on. The coat had a low neckline, and showed the T readily, plus a bit of navel. Luckily for me, the boots and the long coat covered the print on the stockings, except for a glimpse of my knee and lower thigh when I walked. I went back up. My master seemed pleased by what he saw. He got up, took the bag back, got hold of my collar's ring and whispered in my ear:
— Good girl. Good naked slut.
I knew I was in for something, and the anticipation and submission were already getting me hot. We went to a clothes store. He chose two items on the racks, and we went for the booths. When I was about to enter, he said:
— Ask for my help when you've taken your coat and t-shirt off, and sit with your knees apart.
I did, of course. My master opened the curtain wide, came in and closed it again. He had something in his hand.
— Stand up, turn around, and put your hands on the bench, bitch.
Once I was in position, I felt a soft prod on my shoulders, then something dragging by short strokes.The touch slowly went across my back, and again a little lower. When it stopped, my master told me to get up again and look my back in the mirror. I did. He had written on me, in block letters: "If you want to fuck me again, please leave a number, my master will contact you." Then, on my lower back: "Two-hole slave" I flushed vividly and felt my pussy spasm. I was curious, eager…
— Well, nothing fits, said my master aloud. Let's go. (And, lower:) Put only the coat back, take the t-shirt in your hand, and leave it outside, on the first bench you find.
He got out and left the curtain open. I scrambled to put my coat back on, trying to keep my back away both from the mirrors and the entrance. The look I saw on another customer's face told me I hadn't quite succeeded – either that, or it was my stockings, or me wearing a collar and nothing else under my coat… Back outside, we walked for a while, and my master gave me the felt-tip pen and some change. I left the t-shirt when I could, and I knew that I would have to give myself to whoever would call.
— Around next corner, you have the entrance to the Sorbonne university. Get inside, go through the courtyard, and get in the mains. Find the nearest restroom, go into the men's, into a stall, and hang your coat there. Buy condoms, then go back inside the stall, bend over and put one condom on your ass. And wait. Come back out when you have eight phone numbers on your back. You may call guys to you, talk to them, do whatever is necessary to get fucked. Oh, and tie this around something, in evidence.
He got my chain-link leash out of the back and fastened it around my collar.
— Going in, you may keep it inside your coat. Going out, I want to see it hanging loose. Collect the condoms. I'll find you.
I nodded, said "Yes master", and took a deep breath. Left for my assignment. I went into the Sorbonne. The year had only started again, and it was bustling. Students alone or in small groups, going this way and that, in between classes or just waiting for the next. Once inside, I walked about and tried to find restrooms. I knew there were several, of course, and would have liked a spot not too busy, but I knew if I came out without the requested numbers, my master would be displeased. The one I found was next to the vending machines. A row of five or six, coffe machines and snack machines together, then two doors facing each other. One marked men, the other women. I entered the men's without pausing. There was one man at the urinals. He turned his head, probably intrigued by my heels clicking on the tiles. He saw we, made eye-contact. I smiled.
— Too much of a line across the hall, huh? He said with a smile.
I noticed how he had hunched his shoulders and turned his hips so as not to risk exposure. Chivalrous. I smiled back.
— They don't have what I'm looking for there.
I went into the first stall, thinking I wouldn't get what I needed if I hid. Took out my coat, hung it on the hook behind the door, and took the change from the pocket. Went back to the condoms vending machine. The man at the urinal was washing his hands. He froze seing me naked with my collar and stockings.
— Er, is everything… Nah, stupid question. Can I help you?
— Well… (I turned around, showing him my back.) I'm supposed to collect at least eight phone numbers. In here.
— And the guys are just supposed to… take you and leave their number?
— If they want to.
— O… kay. You do that sort of thing often?
— This particular is my first, I said blushing. But I do other things.
— Like what?
— Depends on my master's orders.
By then, I had finished buying the condoms, and held one out to him.
— Do you want to go first?
— Er, no, that wouldn't be right. I'm not sure my girlfriend would appreciate.
— I wouldn't tell. It's not cheating, you don't know me. Just use me.
— I can't believe I'm saying this, but no, thanks, I'll pass.
— Too bad.
I went back into the stall, tied my leash around a piece of plumbing, bent over and put a condom on my ass. And waited. I heard the door open and close once.
— Excuse-me, I said. Can you help me out?
I heard steps coming closer. And a guy go:
— Wow! What is this?
— Exactly what it seems, sir, I said without turning around.
— What, I put the condom on, use it and leave? That it?
— And you may leave your phone number if you want to use me again.
— Alright!
I felt him take the condom, heard him unzip, and pause.
— Er, you're really up for it? I mean, no one is making you do it? Two holes, no waiting, no fine print?
— My holes are yours to use.
— Well then…
And without further warning, he took my ass. Raw, hard, without waiting. I gasped, yelped and bit my lip. There were people right outside, I did not want to attract undue attention. My ass felt raw at first, dry, tight, but he soon opened me up. I had expected shyness, some insults, and of course quite a few studs eager to use a girl up, but not this. He had accepted I was a sex submissive, and did not exactly warrant any consideration.
— Oh boy you're good, sis. Good ass, soft and tight. You're milking me good. Oh boy, here comes.
I felt the rubber expand somewhat inside of me, filled with his cum. He kept pumping inside me until he was spent, and withdrew in one sharp motion that made me squeek.
— Good girl, sweet treat. Definitely want some more. You have a pen, girl? Oh, what's your name?
— Nathalie, or anything you want to call me. There's a pen in my coat pocket, next to you.
He found it, wrote on my back. And thrust the marker in my rectum after use.
— There, much handier.
He put the rubber, tied, on my back, and left. Immediately after, I heard a voice say "fuck it" and steps approach. The first guy, the one I'd talked to, came up. I held out another condom. He tore it open and penetrated my pussy. I felt a surge of pleasure rise, after being fucked in the ass without so much as a caress.
— I'm sorry, he said with a few gasps, I can't leave my phone number, my girlfriend would kill me.
— It's okay, I answered, just use me, I don't ask for more, I apologize if fucking me is an inconvenience.
— No, no, just… ahhh…
He shuddered to a stop, and came in quick bursts. After that, he withdrew, but I felt the condom stick, and empty down my thigh. He thanked me with a tight voice and left. I pulled out the rubber myself, wiped my fingers against my stockings and put another condom in place. I also pulled the marker out, and put it in front of me. The waiting was the worst part. Not knowing who would come through, if they would mock, fuck, protest. Alert security – although France has that tradition of letting people live as they want when it comes to sex, with a forgiving smile, you never know. I waited, hearing people by the vending machines, right behind me – only a wall between them and my offered pussy and ass. When the door finally opened, three guys came in, chatting. They each chose a booth and… stopped. I could imagine them staring at me. My ass. Cum stains on my stockings. The rubber on my back. As a sudden encouragement, I put two more condoms out. That made them laugh. More silence. Then I heard one say:
— Shifumi?
The other two seemed to agree. The next I heard was:
— OK; paper beats rock and well, I'm going first.
And without a word to me, they went in, one after the other, emptying themselves with a grunt. Two wrote their numbers on my back. I thanked them both, panting from the pounding. I had four. No, three. Yes, three. I was already groggy from the situation. I was very wet, thinking of me as a disposable satisfaction machine, and my master waiting for his bitch to be properly used, in public as he liked best. I felt the humiliation and the penetrations battling inside me to arouse me more and more. One guy came in a bit later on, began talking some terrible filth at me, angry, saying that I should be ashamed, and what would people think, and that I was scum and had no dignity. I didn't move, except to reach a little more towards him with my ass. I felt him snatch the condom, and take my ass as rough as he could, all the while continuing his verbal abuse. To my shame, I came right there, hatefucked up the ass in some public restroom, because of the humiliation. I knew I would have to confess to my master, because he had not told me wether I could come or not, but the rush and heat of it was too much. The man finished what he was doing, took out the rubber and reached out to empty it on my nose and cheeks.
— There, serves you good, tramp whore, scum…
He left, and I could still feel my asshole twitch from coming hard. More guys found me, used me, and some put their number down. One out of two, almost. At some point, I had to go buy more rubbers. The number of condoms I had left in the end told me I had been fucked by about seventeen guys when finally, Mister Eight jotted down his phone number, slapped my ass and said:
— See you soon, bucket-girl.
He had called me bucket-girl the whole time, because he said I was very wide, and he was going to fill me up. I was trying to grip him with my vagina, but I felt loose from so many people taking me. I untied the leash from the plumbing, and got up. My back hurt from being bent over and pounded, but that soon passed. Some guys had not tied their rubbers after filling them. When I had collected them, the cum had leaked on my hands and arms, when they had not spilled them on my back themselves. Three had emptied them on my hair – three friends, laughing and chatting like I was not there the whole time. Chatting about exes, mostly. I put my coat back on, let the leash hang out outside, and looked at myself. The cum on my face was dry enough, no one would notice. My hair was matted at some places, but there was no helping it. I did not know if anybodywould notice, but I thought I reeked of semen anyway. I opened the door and got out. Two girls were staring at the door when I did. One saw the leash and grabbed.
— What where you doing in there?
I was numb, and eager to return to my master. The clock above them said I had been there for next to two hours. I felt my pussy open and some juice run down my thighs.
— Getting fucked. I had to collect phone numbers.
— What?
— My master sent me here.
— You're a hooker, right?
— Non, I'm not! I'm a slave, his slave, he orders me and I obey!
The one holrding the leash came closer, sniffed me and stepped back.
— She smells like sex. Come with us.
They took me inside the girls restrooms. The second one began opening my coat.
— What are you doing? I asked.
— I just want to see what a slut looks like naked. Apparently, she had not expected to find out so quickly. My coat fell open, and I let it slide from my shoulders. After what I had just done, two students did not impress me much. I turned around, to show them the numbers written on my back.
— See? I let them fuck me, and some want to do it again. (I put my coat back on, and fished out the remaining condoms to let them fall to the ground) Here, girls. Use those. I'm through for today.
I left them there, and got out of the place. People stared at me on the way, at the leash, at the coat I had not buttoned all the way down, and which showed more stocking than on the way in – and nothing else than stockings. I got out of the university, startled almost to see people going about their business without glacing at the girl who had been fucked seventeen times, had cum on her and phone numbers of guys who'd used her, whose faces she hadn't seen. My master was seated at a café across the street and waved me over. I crossed the street, sat down – pulling the coat backward, and feeling my sensitive pussy twitch at the feeling of the seat.
— You have eight numbers on your back?
— Yes master.
— How many did it take?
— Seventeen, master.
— Seventeen guys took you today?
I blushed at the volume of his voice, and did not turn around to see if anyone hadheard/noticed.
— Yes master. And I came once.
— Why?
— He was fucking my ass and insulting me, very angry.
— Raping you?
— No, I... I don't know, I was there to be used. But it was very humiliating. I felt really low, abased.
— Good. Then you're forgiven. Go pay my tab.
I got up again, feeling my wetness against the seat. We walked home. At some point, my master made me take off the coat, to put on a plaid microskirt and a see-through shirt. He held my leash the whole time. From time to time, I would hear people commenting the writing on my back. My pussy got so wet on the way home...

Here comes Yogi Bear - December 2010
Take a look at the trailer for the upcoming live action 3D animation feature film remake of the classic TV cartoon from the early 60s.
Dan Aykroyd is Yogi's voice, Justin Timberlake does the honors with Boo Boo.

Re: Here comes Yogi Bear - December 2010
I'm not excited about this at all. From a designer's standpoint, they took all the appeal out of the characters. Ed Benedict is rolling over in his grave.
...and I REALLY dislike Yogi's voice...but Daws Butler is a hard act to follow.

Got that Alvin and the Chipmunks 2 feeling about this. And that's not a good sign at all.
At least (I'm likely alone in thinking this, and I'm only half-kidding) his (and Boo Boo's) fur gets a passing grade from me. Hey, I had to find something to praise about this version of Yogi!

Yeah, the texture on the tree behind him is cool too .

Littleton Harvest Festival unites seasons greatest hits
Organized by the Littleton Area Chamber of Commerce, the festival includes the Littleton Police Department's Halloween Festival, trick-or-treating on Main Street, Old Home Day activities, Littleton Co-op's Great Chili Cook Off , movie night, and, back by popular demand, the eerie Gathering of the Pumpkins on the Ammonoosuc River.
The Gathering of the Pumpkins premiered last year, with local businessman Dave Harkless of Littleton Bike & Fitness spearheading the effort that resulted in about 300 jack o' lanterns gracing the river rocks behind the bike shop and on the pedestrian covered bridge.
Harkless said planning started earlier this year, with more people involved. This has allowed the event to add the Haunted Riverwalk to supplement the ';chilling'; gazebo music of a ghoulish pipe organ along the walking path. The path crosses over the covered bridge and circles up river in front Riverglen Senior Housing and Senior Center, and also goes down river to the older pedestrian suspension bridge. New this year, too, is a horse-drawn hayride.
';We're anticipating 500 jack o'lanterns,'; said Chad Stearns, executive director of the Littleton Area Chamber of Commerce, of the Sunday night event, which goes from dusk until 8 p.m.
Harkless, posting on the Facebook page for the gathering, said this is a grassroots event, and this year will bigger and better than last year's, thanks to the help of volunteers. Donations of carved pumpkins can be dropped off at the bike shop at 20 Cottage Street on Friday from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m., Saturday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Sunday from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.
School children will be doing their bit to help with the haunting of Littleton, thanks to the Littleton Police Department. On Saturday, as part of the LPD's fifth annual Halloween Festival at the Lakeway Elementary School, children in kindergarten through grade six can participate in a pumpkin carving contest. Carving tools are provided, but kids, who must be accompanied by an adult, should have their orange gourd hollowed out already.
Those youngsters who wish to show off their artwork can leave their pumpkin with the police, who will make sure it is displayed at the river gathering.
The hauntingly good time all starts on Saturday, Oct. 27, with the LPD Halloween festival from 10 a.m. to noon, trick-or-treating along Main Street from noon to 4 p.m., Old Home Day Events at Remick Park from noon to 2 p.m., the Littleton Food Co-op Great Chili Cook Off at the Littleton Opera House from 2 to 4 p.m., and movie night at the Opera House from 6 to 8 p.m.
';We are happy to be working with the Boys & Girls Club of the North Country and the Littleton Parks Department on this new event for the children of the area,'; said Stearns of the Old Home Day activities, such as a three-legged race and pie-eating contest.
Sponsors include the Littleton Food Co-op, Littleton Bike & Fitness, Bank of New Hampshire, Boys & Girls Club of the North Country, the Littleton Police Department, and Littleton Parks & Recreation.

6 Best Lip Plumper Products -- and the 4 Worst
Lip plumper gives lips an instant boost, no surgery necessary. Read on for the best lip plumpers -- and the duds you ought to avoid.
The best lip plumpers can subtly add shape and volume to your lips without making you look like you got punched in the kisser. A bad lip plumper, on the other hand, can leave you with red, flaky, burning lips.
Even with non-surgical lip plumpers, there's a bit of risk involved. That's why we had our most courageous readers review hundreds of lip plumping products to find the best and the worst. Read on to find out which best lip plumpers are worthy of your pucker -- and which ones to pass up.
SEE NEXT PAGE: Worst Lip Plumper No. 4: Sally Hansen Lip Inflation Plumping Treatment, $6.99
Worst Lip Plumper No. 4: Sally Hansen Lip Inflation Plumping Treatment, $6.99TotalBeauty.com average member rating: 5.3*
Why it's not so great: Aside from the horrible taste, readers also say this gloss doesn't do any plumping that it is intended to do. They also say the formula is sticky, goopy, and wears off quickly. One reader sums it up:
"This is a nice looking, shiny gloss. It lasts about two hours and moisturizes well, albeit with that slight burning that most lip plumpers seem to have. Keep in mind: There's no color, no matter what shade you buy. I use this merely as a topcoat for lipstick. I have not noticed any true plumping effects, nor did I really expect to." -- amygab1126, TotalBeauty.com member

Worst Lip Plumper No. 3: Victoria's Secret Very Voluptuous Lip Plumper, $18TotalBeauty.com average member rating: 5.1*
Why it's not so great: This product has a formula readers say is super thick, sticky, and has a plumping sensation that feels more like a painful burn. Along with the faulty packaging, readers also agree that it's not worth the price. One reader says:
"Before you go out and spend money on this stick of lipgloss, hear me out. While some lip plumpers out there deliver a tactic to create an illusion of full lips or even actually expand because of a collagen reaction, this is just a plain Jane standing next to them. This didn't fulfill any expectations nor does it even live up to its own claims for the price. You may as well add some spice powder to your lip gloss and call it even. It's a chunky silver tube of false hopes for those in dire need of glamorizing their lips." -- starluxe, TotalBeauty.com member

Worst Lip Plumper No. 2: Benefit Lip Plump, $22TotalBeauty.com average member rating: 4.7*
Why it's not so great: This product is one readers agree is messy, drying, and does more priming than actual plumping. Though it's supposed to create a fuller look, readers say it doesn't at all. One reader explains:
"This was a huge disappointment. Unfortunately, I've found this to be the case with many Benefit products. This is a thick beige mess. It's drying, does absolutely no plumping, and changes the color of whatever lip product you put over it. You cannot wear it alone because of the color unless you want to look like a corpse. Don't waste your money." -- lorif631, TotalBeauty.com member

Worst Lip Plumper No. 1: Fusion Beauty LipFusion Lip Plumping Pencil, $28TotalBeauty.com average member rating: 4.7*
Why it's not so great: Overall, readers are not impressed with this product, saying it has little to no staying power and is not worth the money. One reader shares her experience:
"I got this along with the Lip Fusion XL, both of which were a disappointment. No plumping at all. This is just an overpriced lip pencil/liner, which doesn't do as promised. The same effect can be had with other lip pencils for cheaper. The only thing going for it is the color, nothing more." -- cheetah11, TotalBeauty.com member

Best Lip Plumper No. 6: Cynthia Rowland Luscious Lips, $49.95TotalBeauty.com average member rating: 8.6*
Why it's great: Newbies and beauty experts alike say this product is a lip plumper that delivers what it promises, without pain or stinging, in a matter of seconds. One reviewer says:
"I have this device. I know it might look strange but it really does work. I had a problem with one side of my lip becoming asymmetrical and I started using this product, after 10 days of gentle 3 to 4 times pumping, my lips became symmetrical again. I still use it 3 to 4 times a week and my lips look great. No more thin or asymmetrical lips. It's non-invasive. It doesn't sting, there are no injections, and it's very affordable. NOTE: Do follow the directions carefully because you can bruise your lips if you don't. It's worth buying because your lips will naturally increase in size and the collagen will increase the size of your lips too. It's really an interesting and safe product." -- stevie, TotalBeauty.com member

Best Lip Plumper No. 5: SkinMedica TNS LipPlump System, $55TotalBeauty.com average member rating: 8.6*
Why it's great: Reviewers say this product has long-term benefits since it helps smooth fine lines and create an even texture on your lips. Plus, it keeps lips moisturized all day long. One reviewer says:
"I've used this for several months now and just bought my second set which is a pretty rare occurrence for me. Usually products just don't live up to their hype but this one does for me. The lines on my lips had just starting becoming noticeable when I first tried this product and it truly has helped. The combined treatment has plumped up the area around my lips to make the lines less noticeable. Can't get any better than that!" -- lyndaV, TotalBeauty.com member

Best Lip Plumper No. 4: Laura Mercier Lip Plumper, $30TotalBeauty.com average member rating: 8.6*
Why it's great: Readers of all ages agree this product warrants compliments at every turn. They say it doesn't burn, but instead creates a tingling sensation that soothes while it plumps. One reader says:
"As a mature woman I have found the absolute secret to sexy, pouty lips ... and this is it. I am addicted and refuse to be without it. Whether I use the clear as a base or a color. I have one in my purse, one in my desk, one in my car, one in my locker, and several in my makeup drawer. This is one of life's necessities!!" -- usetobeabanker, TotalBeauty.com member

Best Lip Plumper No. 3: Smashbox O-Plump Intuitive Lip Plumper, $25TotalBeauty.com average member rating: 8.9*
Why it's great: Reviewers say this product makes their lips look noticeably fuller and super soft, not sticky. One reader raves:
"I've tried just about every plumper out there. This is my number one pick for the following reasons: 1. It doesn't burn my lips. 2. The gloss isn't extreme or sticky (it has a perfect shine) 3. It goes on clear and makes my lips a perfect shade of pink. 4. Unlike a lot of other plumpers, it doesn't dry out my lips." -- luxylexi, TotalBeauty.com member

Best Lip Plumper No. 2: Prestige WonderFull Lip Plumping Gloss, $5.99TotalBeauty.com average member rating: 8.9*
Why it's great: This is a staple product that readers say they can't go a day without wearing. Readers agree it makes their lips fuller and the color is complementary to any lip shade they use. One fan says:
"I bought this lip gloss last night with many suspicions and skepticism as to whether or not it actually plumps the lips as it says. IT DOES WORK! As soon as you put it on, it gives you an intense tingly feel on your lips. Your lips become fuller and the color is very complementary to the lips with so much glitter. My 11-year-old daughter who is a tough critic of my looks when it comes to makeup, thought I looked absolutely great with this lip gloss and actually complimented me! That's when I knew it must really look good! Go ahead and buy it without reservations or doubts. You'll love it!" -- semi70, TotalBeauty.com member

Best Lip Plumper No. 1: Dior Addict Lip Maximizer, $31TotalBeauty.com average member rating: 9.1*
Why it's great: Readers love that this product is refreshing and doesn't irritate the skin like other plumping formulas. The best part, readers say, is that it stays on smoothly throughout the day.
"This is by far one of the best lip plumpers I have ever tried. And I have tried quite a few! The color is great -- it really just enhances your natural lip color with the slightest hint of pink. It claims that after 14 days of use, your lip contour will be more defined and your lips will look fuller. I would definitely say these claims are true! I am completely addicted to this gloss and take it with me everywhere. I definitely recommend this if you are looking for a lip plumper that really works!" -- BrittanyLeigh, TotalBeauty.com member

Buxom Lip Plumping Gloss is also great (despite a cooling/tingly feeling) and comes in a wide range of colors. I was surprised not to see it here.

Additional Information
River2Sea Sea Rock Jigs are among the original deep jigging lures. Flawless, intricate designs make these some of the most visually detailed jigs available.
Unfortunately River2Sea is discontinuing these great lures. At the moment they are focusing on their fresh water lures. There is still demand for these proven baits so we are selling through our inventory. The picture on each page of each weight of lures shows all of the original colors available. As certain colors in each size sell out the option to buy that color is removed. The only colors available in each size are the ones still listed in the selection list.
Sea Rock models from 1/4oz to 3 3/8oz come with a treble hook attached to tail of lure. These baits are used for a wide variety of fishing situations, both casting and deep jigging. On the lighter lures this is the best choice for both casting and jigging. The heavier models are used mainly for deep vertical jigging, so they do not have a tail hook. For for the deep water applications the jig works better with a swing hook attached to the top of jig. The hooks are left off to allow the angler to setup the jig with one of the many styles of swing hook rigs.

We are excited to see what kind of interstellar weirdness comes out of Space Dandy, the new animated series directed by Cowboy Bebop director Shinichirō Watanabe that is coming to Adult Swim. But in the new English-dubbed trailer, we finally get to hear Dandy speak—and it's largely about his love for boobs.
There were a lot of bouncing breasts in the first couple of Space Dandy trailers, and it looks like Dandy's visit to what commenter beauty-and-the-building aptly termed Space Hooters is a big part of the show's marketing. There may very well be a self-aware, parodic aspect to Dandy's constant drooling over the female form—and hopefully there will be some female characters who exist for reasons other than to set Dandy's saliva flowing (Scarlet, Dandy's overseer, appears quite smartly dressed at least over on the Space Dandy cast page.)—but the marketing is giving me pause. On the whole, though, these trailers continue to look like crazy fun with plenty of action and alien eye-candy.
Update: Adult Swim VP Jason DeMarco, who runs the Toonami programming block, tweeted this in response to this post and the comments:
Very interesting to see ppl's reax to that trailer NOT knowing the show. Usually we're getting reax from existing fans. #spacedandy
— LICH KING DEMARCO (@Clarknova1) December 22, 2013
But if you're worried about us putting some "spin" on it- I promise, that trailer DOES feel like the show. "Boobies" and all. #spacedandy

Kosher Soups
|Beef and Barley Soup
June Hersh, The Kosher Carnivore
This iconic American dish walks a fine line between a soup and a stew. Thick and rich, laden with beef bits, chewy mushrooms and tender pearl barley this soup is a meal in itself.
1 pound stew meat cut into 1/2–inch pieces
Heat a tablespoon of olive oil in a large soup pot, cook and stir the beef until nicely browned, about 5 to 7 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and pour off the fat from the pot. Heat the remaining oil in the pot, cook and stir the onions, garlic, celery and carrots, over medium heat, until they begin to soften, about 15 minutes. Add the stock, bay leaves, mushrooms, barley and reserved beef. Season with salt and a generous sprinkling of pepper. Bring to a strong simmer then reduce the heat and cover and simmer for 1 hour, adding boiling water if the soup becomes too thick. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Discard the bay leaf before serving.
Yield: About 8 servings
Behind the counter: Have you butcher cut stew meat from the chuck or shin. If you can score some bones, toss them in for added flavor. Alternate cut lamb cut from the shoulder (+$).
Recipes: Soups, Beef, Barley, Meat, Kosher

Report: Uralkali CEO detained in Belarus, investigators to seize company assets (Update)
1:26 PM MDT | August 26, 2013 | Lindsay Frost
Reuters today reported that Belarusian authorities have detained Vladislav Baumgertner, CEO of Uralkali, on suspicion of abusing his position and official powers, according to the Belarusian Investigative Committee. Baumgertner was held after meeting with Belarusian prime minister, Mikhail Myasnikovich, on Monday. Russia and Belarus have had a strained relationship since Uralkali's decision to quit a joint trading venture with Belarus Potash Co. (BPC) in July, though the company has since announced it has rejoined BPC. "[Baumgertner] was in Minsk at...

Just wanted to say, if you get something in your eye, go on to the eye doc and let him have a look.
I somehow got a piece metal in my eye Monday evening. Thought it may have been flash burn, just a little irritated.
Tuesday had some pretty good pain, had to finish a job so I thought I would give it another day.
Wednesday, almost unbearable, was at the eye doc when the door opened. The metal wasn't hard to remove but the rust had to be literally drilled out.
So don't be hardheaded, rust in the eye is a PITA.

Don't be hardheaded
Very rare I have been to the eye doc but when you need to go you don't have a choice. Had the drilling done once, weird. I have gotten really good at picking stuff out on my own. A magnified mirror & a bright light really helps.
One thing the doc mentioned years ago that I never thought of is to close your eyes & brush off your hair & wipe your eyebrows. He said it's common for people to remove your safety glasses after grinding & then have something get in your eye because the small pcs. get stuck in your hair, hat, etc..
Another thing to remember is you can't have an MRI because the magnet will literally rip out any small slivers in your eyes etc.MM250

I keep a clean one in a ziploc bag in one of my toolbox drawers... many times if a steel sliver sneaks past my face shield and gets into an eye... I can pick it off while it is still a floater before it embeds and does more damage...
of course if that did not do it ... the doc is the only smart answer.... I have done the Dumb thing too many times and "toughed it out"..... ended up at the doc's anyway... just more pain in the interim...
(really important to keep the probe in a clean sealed ziploc... otherwise it will be covered with filings and be useless for first aid).

The bitterness of poor quality remains long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten

I got a piece of glass in my eye one it won't rust so they can't find them. Like to have never found it finally after two days looking from the side the doc caught a gilmmer of it I was glad.
I am fortunate in that I have never gotten any metal in my eyes. About ten years ago I had an MRI, and when I listed welding on the paperwork, I created a panic in the office. Metal in your eye doesn't play well with MRIs.
Don't be hardheaded
Y'all speaking the truth. Just last week was doing a demo job and had to patch the concrete ceiling in a few places. Using quick set mortar I had some fly off my trowel and hit my glasses. When I went to the bathroom to wash it off it got into the corner of my eye while taking off my glasses. Quick setting mortar will cure under water so I had a rather large chunk scouring my eye till I could finish and get to the room. Using a washcloth soaked with cool water and laying on my side In bed squeezing the water slowly to flush. Came out after a few painful hours.
I used to be hardheaded bout wearing my glasses all the time but now its a no brainer. If I'm on the job site, I've got my glasses on period.
I'll have to pack up one of those magnets and I never thought of MRI problems, that's pretty scary.
The doc said the worst thing was the hole the drill makes. He explained this bacteria that's everywhere ( I forget the name) and possibly even already in our eyes that if it gets in the hole you'll loose your eye in two days.
He prescribed antibiotic drops and pain relief drops.
He is the first doctor ever that has said my number is in the phone book, call anytime any day if there is a problem.
His receptionist said the same thing. That goes for everybody, not just me. Had no appointment just walked in and was seen in minutes and never been there before.
He removed the metal, cleaned out the rust and chewed my butt a little for admitting I drive without my glasses, LOL
Old fashion doctor for sure. The entire procedure was 75 bucks and he actually cares about people.
Rare, very rare to experience this now days.

http://www.iowafarmequipment.com/Pho...ive_whorse.jpg but more worn out. It was missing a guide roller. Everytime it came down the piece where the hydraulic ram attaches at the top would hit another piece. That night I had an awful headache and could feel something scratching the inside of my eyelid when I would blink. Next morning, a trip to the emergency room to get the shrapnel out. Not fun.

I've had the drill, weird feeling, almost like leaning against a big motor turning over real slow. I had a hot piece from grinding a still red weld burn in, had to drill it out.
The MRI thing is handled with an x-ray of your head. I had an MRI a year and a half ago, ripped out the rotator cuff and Scapula (totally screwed up the shoulder) and they had to x-ray my head before hand because I am a welder/fabricator.
A couple of months ago they thought I had a stroke, I just turned 65 and they think as you get older your mind and body start to fail. They put me in for an MRI and then stopped immediately. I had a piece of steel in my head. They checked the C scan and verified it was there and then told me they were going to resume the MRI but I was to stop them if I felt heat or pain. I didn't. But the images were zombie like in that there was this ragged black spot where the steel was. I figure a piece of grinding dust got in the scalp and found a home away from home and scabbed in.
No stroke btw, heart attack either, they still don't know what happened. I guess we can file it under the stuff happens. I'm 65 take no pills on a daily basis and prefer walking the 18 holes, and eat at least 5 eggs a day, makes the chickens feel like they contribute something to their upkeep.

If you were 16 again and ordered by teachers to read this summer, what titles would you be unlocking on your Kindle or Nook?
Think The Hunger Games, not The Great Gatsby, and The Help, not The Odyssey. Today's high school reading lists lean toward popular contemporary books and away from the canonical titles that are more likely to be studied during the academic year.
See also: 21 classic novels that are still worth reading
Summer reading was mostly a voluntary pursuit when people who are now 50+ were whiling away summers. (See page 3 for more about high school reads circa 1963.) These days, however, summer reading is an assignment.
Lists of suggested titles and requirements vary widely according to school, grade and course level, but there is a common goal: to cultivate a lifelong love of books. As Steven Heller, communication arts teacher at Adlai E. Stevenson High School in Lincolnshire, Ill., put it: "If you require the old classics over the summer, you'll drive kids to SparkNotes."
We studied reading lists from around the country and found the following books among the most common inclusions. There's a good chance your child or grandchild will be cracking one of them open this summer, so why not read along? A good read is a good read, no matter what your age.
The Book Thief, by Markus Zusak (2006)
A young girl living in Nazi Germany during World War II steals books and shares them with neighbors as well as with the Jewish refugee hiding in her foster family's basement.
The Poisonwood Bible, by Barbara Kingsolver (1998)
A Baptist family travels to the Belgian Congo in 1959 for missionary work, kicking off this sprawling story told over three decades in Africa.
The Things They Carried, by Tim O'Brien (1990)
Vietnam veteran O'Brien based this stirring collection of intertwined short stories on his own war experience.
The Joy Luck Club, by Amy Tan (1989)
In San Francisco, a close-knit group of women — four Chinese immigrants and their American-born daughters — gathers for a regular game of mah-jongg over a span of 40 years.
The Lovely Bones, by Alice Sebold (2002)
A murdered teenager watches from the afterlife as her family struggles to deal with her death and her father hunts for her killer.
The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time, by Mark Haddon (2003)
The novel's 15-year-old narrator with an autism spectrum condition is also its protagonist, searching to unravel the mysterious death of a neighborhood pup.
The Kite Runner, by Khaled Hosseini (2003)
A young boy in Kabul lives through a tumultuous period in Afghan history, from the fall of the monarchy to the rise of the Taliban. Hosseini's follow-up, 2007's A Thousand Splendid Suns, is also a popular summer reading list choice.
The Hunger Games, by Suzanne Collins (2008)
The dystopian, futuristic tale of a 16-year-old girl competing in a televised battle to the death in what was once North America.
Blink, by Malcolm Gladwell (2005)
The pop scientist examines the wisdom of spontaneous decisions.
Next page: Life of Pi and 10 other books high schoolers may be reading this summer. »

Jenson Button is looking forward to returning to the track where he recorded his previous victory for McLaren...
Jenson Button is looking forward to returning to the track where he recorded his previous victory for McLaren...
Jenson Button: Obviously, I have some extremely happy memories of racing in Brazil - it's where I won my world championship, back in 2009, and it's where I took my most recent grand prix win, last year for Vodafone McLaren Mercedes. This year has been a tricky one, though, and it'll be tough heading back to Sao Paulo knowing that the team hasn't taken a victory since race day last year, but to be honest that only makes me more determined to end the season on a positive note.
Finally, Brazil will be my final race in Vodafone overalls. I've won eight grands prix in our title partner's famous rocket-red colours, I've driven some of the best cars of my F1 career during my association with them, and I've done some incredible things with them too - like driving an F1 car around Mount Panorama, one of my lifelong ambitions. Vodafone has played such a major part in the success of our team over the last seven seasons, and, while I'll be sad to see them leave, I'll always be proud of the successes we enjoyed together.
Sergio Perez: My final race for Vodafone McLaren Mercedes will be the second successive race in the Americas, so it'll be another weekend in front of my fans from Mexico and Latin America, and also another opportunity for me to show my abilities before the winter break. I love Interlagos because it's such a racer's circuit - you attack the whole lap. The first corner is a fantastic place for overtaking, and you can pretty much race side-by-side with someone all the way down into Turn Six, which is incredible.
The infield section is tricky, because it has a range of elevations and cambers, but it's a fantastic feeling when you get it right. Finally, Juncao is a tough little corner, because you're often outbraking yourself on entry, simply because you want to maximise your speed through the corner in order to maintain speed along the long, top straight. Every lap is a challenge and, when you're racing, an absolute thrill. I love it around here and I'll be giving it everything to make sure I finish the season in style.
Martin Whitmarsh: There are few more satisfyingly challenging venues at which to conclude a long Formula One season than Interlagos, the home of Brazilian motorsport and one of the most spectacular and awe-inspiring racetracks in the world. The race will bring the curtain down on the sport's current set of technical regulations, and will immediately send us busily into the winter as we start to prepare for a new era of turbocharging and energy recovery. It's an exciting time for the sport - but also a nerve-wracking period for every team as we come to terms with a daunting array of new variables and permutations.
For everyone in the Vodafone McLaren Mercedes team, the Brazilian Grand Prix marks the end of another era - it will be the last grand prix of Vodafone's title partnership with us. Vodafone will step away from that title partnership after having spent seven fantastic seasons with us - during which time we won one world championship and 34 grands prix together, and also took 30 pole positions and 24 fastest laps. We also take home a lot of wonderful shared memories, some of which we'll cherish for the rest of our lives. Speaking for myself, I'll certainly never forget the emotional rollercoaster that I found myself on, sitting on the pitwall here at Interlagos, five years ago, as we won the world championship on the very last corner of the very last lap of the very last race. Thank you, Vodafone. Power to you!

Supreme Court Strikes Indecency Rules, Doesn't Address Free Speech Issue
Originally published on Thu June 21, 2012 3:20 pm
By an 8-0 vote, the Supreme Court today threw out fines the Federal Communications Commission filed against Fox and ABC.
The court did not address whether the FCC rules violated anyone's First Amendment right to free speech. Instead, the justices ruled that the FCC "failed to give Fox or ABC fair notice prior to the broadcasts in question that fleeting expletives and momentary nudity could be found actionably indecent."
The justices added that their ruling "leaves the Commission free to modify its current indecency policy in light of its determination of the public interest."
The Associated Press sums up the news this way:
"The justices declined on Thursday to issue a broad ruling on the constitutionality of the FCC indecency policy. Instead, the court concluded only that broadcasters could not have known in advance that obscenities uttered during awards show programs and a brief display of nudity on an episode of ABC television's NYPD Blue could give rise to sanctions."
Justice Sonia Sotomayor did not take part in the ruling.
Correction at 5:18 p.m. ET. An earlier version of this post incorrectly said the Supreme Court had struck down FCC rules that govern indecency. The Supreme Court did not go that far in its ruling. Instead it decided only to throw out the fines assessed against Fox and ABC.

After months of planning, programming, video watching, talent wrangling, late-night take-out eating, and fervent finger-crossing, the 2012 Vimeo Festival + Awards really actually happened! We did it! Again! The Festival + Awards took place June 7-9 in New York City, and whether you attended or just want to live vicariously through those who did, here's a look at how it all went down:
The Awards show was awesome
Featuring live performances by Reggie Watts and Beardyman, the 2012 Awards celebrated the world's best videos — and their creators — using a combination of insane technology, mind-melting musical numbers, and good old-fashioned human emotion. We presented 13 category awards, three honorary awards, and one whopping Grand Prize, which went to Everynone for "Symmetry."
Please please please watch all the winning films and get a slick recap of the night in our Awards highlights video.
The Festival brought us all together
The Vimeo Festival was one wild weekend of riveting conversations, skill-sharpening workshops, and screenings of our favorite videos. We had an amazing time hanging out with Vimeo aficionados from around the world, and we were continually reminded that what makes Vimeo special is (sincerity alert!) the people who use it. Check out some of our favorite Festival moments via videos we captured during the weekend:
Be awestruck by Dr. Reginald Watts' brilliant keynote address.
Get emotional as 2010 Grand Prize winner Eliot Rausch premieres his new film, "LIMBO."
Think about Internet memes as June Cohen predicts the future of viral videos.
Finally, we finished off the Festival by shaking our booties to beats from DJ Spooky and Motion Potion at the Closing Party. And we've got pictures to prove it.

Many thanks to the woman who paid for the breakfast of my daughter and me at Friends Restaurant on Dupont Road the morning of Dec. 19. We were on our way home from my having an early morning procedure at Dupont Hospital. You made our day! Your kindness was deeply appreciated and will never be forgotten.
Chapel Ridge Kohl's is employing a gem in the form of Heather. It is rare to get service and kindness anymore, and Heather is a retailer's dream. More stores need to employ people who give exemplary service and kindness. She is a rare jewel. Thank you, Heather, for being so caring.
Thank you to the lady who turned in my handbag at Gordmans on Dec. 17. I wish there were more people like you. Thank you for your honesty.
I want to tip my hat to Blackhawk Middle School on East State Boulevard. Thanks for having the courage to put Merry Christmas on your big sign in front of your school rather then the lame Happy Holidays. Thank you, Blackhawk, for not bending to the politically correct crowd.
Tip your hat to someone. Email firstname.lastname@example.com or send by mail to: Tip of the Hat, The News-Sentinel, 600 W. Main St., Fort Wayne, IN 46802.

Ian G. Barbour, 1923 – 2013
Ian Barbour died on Christmas Eve at the age of 90. He is credited by many to be the father of the contemporary academic discipline of science and religion.

Ian Barbour died on Christmas Eve at the age of 90. He is credited by many to be the father of the contemporary academic discipline of science and religion.
I was raised in a household of atheists. My parents were card-carrying members of the American Communist Party, and therefore the atheism in my household was quite close to the militant anti-theism of the so-called "new atheists".
Congratulations to the 37 winners of the Evolution & Christian Faith (ECF) grants competition! ECF is a new BioLogos program designed to support projects and network-building among scholars, church leaders, and parachurch organizations.
People hold clearly discordant points of view, and it would be dishonest to ignore the conflict. Yet some voices emphasize the dissonance without any note of harmony to put it in context. Too often, science and faith becomes a hostile battle of worldviews, sounding angry, dissonant chords even among fellow Christians. But civil, gracious dialogue is possible.
In this video Conversation, Joel Hunter articulates the importance of raising a child that can garner knowledge from a variety of sources and to be able to study science with integrity—that is, to be able to pursue the truth to where it leads.
In this series, U.S. Navy Commander Mike Beidler shares his own personal journey from accepting young-earth creationism to embracing evolutionary creationism.
Resilient learners and a robust faith can handle challenges. But the faith of the students my professor described was different— strong, but brittle; it did not have the resilience that comes through testing.
How can it be that two things we love and treasure—two things that are absolutely central to ourselves and the lives we've built—seem so often to be at odds with each other?
The BioLogos Forum is pleased to present this infographic about evolution and public education in the United States. The graphic, titled "The State of Evolution", draws upon sources from USA Today, the National Center for Science Education, and Pew Forum, and shows two challenges to a widespread understanding of the science of evolution in the United States.
If they left their children in the public classroom, should they as concerned parents, as committed Christians, as agents of truth and light in this dark world, remain quiet or should they speak out?
I found myself in a very awkward situation. On the one hand I was a follower of Jesus Christ who loved the Bible, knew that it was God's Word, and, therefore, not full of lies. However, I also was someone who had loved science for many years and was planning on pursuing a career in research...
Last week, Tennessee legislators approved a bill on science education (the Teacher Protection Academic Freedom Act) that has stoked controversy around the country.
In this series, Bob Jones University graduate David Buller recounts his spiritual and intellectual journey in which he came to a deeper understanding of the metaphorical nature of the Genesis creation account and no longer views evolution as contradictory to God's Word. It is the story of a courageous and truth-seeking heart.
In this series, Dennis Venema describes his personal journey that took him away from the Intelligent Design arguments toward the evolutionary creation worldview. Through careful and honest research, he discovered ID scientific reasoning to be analogy-based, in sharp contrast to evolutionary science, which was supported by concrete data. After accepting this view, God's presence ever strengthened him as he explored the compatibility between the Bible and God's creative mechanism.
Media-hungry atheist, creationist and religious fundamentalist provocateurs have dominated the science and religion narrative for the past decade. A recently published large-scale survey of college students, however, finds that the call to arms has fallen on deaf ears.
In this video, Pastor Daniel Harrell encourages the Christian community to embrace science as an element which can harmonize and strengthen, rather than attack and undermine their understanding of theology.
As a child, I started reading the Bible as soon as I could and I made my decision for Jesus wholeheartedly at the age of nine. Nurtured in an "all Christian environment," I knew little else. But certain questions tended to nag at me.
By all accounts, my faith should have perished the moment I started asking questions about faith and science. All my life I'd been taught that I had to choose—between believing the Bible and believing my science book, between honoring God and embracing evolution.
In this video Conversation, Os Guinness notes that Christians should be able to relate their faith to all sorts of issues, including science, and should have no fear of doing so. Guinness quotes George Whitfield, who said, "I'm never better than when I'm on the full stretch for God."
In this short series, Brian Godawa relates his personal journey from faith in instantaneous creation to gradual evolution. He initially held the scientific six-day model of creation after reading The Genesis Flood, thinking this to be the plainest reading one could have. However, he quickly realized that his "simple" reading was biased by his 20th century, westernized culture that thought in scientific terms. Ultimately, the Bible is inerrant on matters of faith, life and God, but there are cultural barriers threaded throughout the text that must be overcome with proper hermeneutics.

Gallery: Mexico Unveils Gigantic Green Roofed Volcano Soccer Stadium
In a way, it seems our ability to create buildings that blend in with their surroundings is the ultimate test of our willingness to accept that we are part of nature. And, in Mexico — as in Italy — blending in means looking volcanic.
The stadium, which hosted its first match last year, consists of a white membrane — intended to look like a cloud hovering atop the volcano — and grassy sloped sides. It seats 45,000 and tucks away 8,500 parking spaces under the hillside, which will be open as public parkland when there's no match on. (As grass and trees grow in, it will be a little more appealing than it is now.)
One can reach it by bus, and car ingress and egress is carefully designed to avoid congestion as much as one can in urban Mexico.
