Not sure if this was asked already, but is there anyway to incorporate your widget into a page. I represent Midwest Gaming (www.midwest-gaming.net) and we love your widget for our featured streamers, but we want to create a actual page for live-streamers so we can add more future streamers w/o clogging up the sidebar widget. Similar to how http://www.solomid.net/streams.php has theirs.
If you have any insight it'd be greatly appreciated! :)

Science Policy, Ethics, and Economic Methodology: Some Problems of Technology Assessment and Environmental-Impact Analysis / Edition 1by Kristin Shrader-Frechette
View All Available Formats & Editions
Pub. Date: 12/31/1984
Publisher: Springer Netherlands
If indeed scientists and technologists, especially economists, set much of the agenda by which the future is played out, and I think they do, then the student of scientific methodology and public ethics has at least three options. He can embrace certain scientific methods and the value they hold for social decisionmaking, much as Milton Friedman has accepted
If indeed scientists and technologists, especially economists, set much of the agenda by which the future is played out, and I think they do, then the student of scientific methodology and public ethics has at least three options. He can embrace certain scientific methods and the value they hold for social decisionmaking, much as Milton Friedman has accepted neoclassical econom ics. Or, he can condemn them, regardless of their value, much as Stuart Hampshire has rejected risk-cost-benefit analysis (RCBA). Finally, he can critically assess these scientific methods and attempt to provide solutions to the problems he has uncovered. As a philosopher of science seeking the middle path between uncritical acceptance and extremist rejection of the economic methods used in policy analysis, I have tried to avoid the charge of being "anti science". Fred Hapgood, in response to my presentation at a recent Boston Colloquium for the Philosophy of Science, said that my arguments "felt like" a call for rejection of the methods of risk-cost-benefit analysis. Not so, as Chapter Two of this volume should make eminently clear. All my criticisms are construc tive ones, and the flaws in economic methodology which I address are uncovered for the purpose of suggesting means of making good techniques better. Likewise, although I criticize the economic methodology by which many technology assessments (TA's) and environmental-impact analyses (EIA's) have been used to justify public projects, it is wrong to conclude that I am anti-technology.

Lancaster Police Department Chief Hugh White told the crowd of about 100 that enough was enough. He urged them to help police fight crime in their neighborhoods.
The old football maxim says defense wins games.
The 2010 Lancaster High School football game was the latest proof of the ageless grid claim Monday at the Bruins' practice field at the Rice Athletic Complex.
The White team posted an 8-0 win over the Blue squad in the annual clash.
The game was originally set for Friday afternoon at Memorial Stadium, but a late afternoon rain washed out the action.
INDIAN LAND – As traffic increases along the U.S. 521 corridor in Indian Land, county officials are hoping for a new traffic signal to ease congestion.
The Lancaster County Economic Development Corp. recently requested that Lancaster County Council look into approving the installation of a traffic signal at the intersection of U.S. 521 and 521 Corporate Center Drive.
The intersection is near Internet marketing firm Red Ventures. County Administrator Steve Willis presented the request at council's May 24 meeting.

"We all at some point have taken a chance to get what we want out of life." The quote represents the moment when Jeff Todd, the lead singer of Meadows Fortune, stood in Blackbird Studio in Nashville, Tennessee with his self-recorded demo, talking to music producers Scott Phillips and David Hall. Now Meadows Fortune has a debut album, music videos and countless fans on ReverbNation and Facebook and many things to come in the near future. Todd said something that was even more profound than the first quote about taking chances, some advice that every musician should take and learn from. The following quote will represent his future after taking chances. "I wish I could say it was all luck, it would have been a lot easier! In reality though, it was a very thought out plan. I'm a bit of a perfectionist and slightly stubborn, but I think that's what it takes to be a musician."
"Reckless Believer is an album of hope, love, honesty, beauty and courage. The music is performed with exceptional skill, the sound quality is absolutely stellar throughout, and the vocals of Jeffery Todd are the perfect conveyor of his well-written and thoughtful lyrics. Where there is darkness, there is also light. Reckless Believer has the power to bring that light into the hearts of many. 5 stars (out of 5)"
"The music of Meadows Fortune, long time Bloomington-er Jeffery Todd, seems an act better suited for summer graduations and weddings than for the warm yellow walls of Bear's Place. However, Todd's vocals are beautiful and tinged sweetly with Nashville, and what's more his nostalgic sentiment is real, even tear-jerking, and characterized by lifelong ambitions to perform and create. Todd's descriptions of his first days behind the piano are given with a characteristic humility. All the same, this twenty-three year old has much to brag about: his 2011 album "Reckless Believer" for instance. Aspiring to share the same Nashville venues as Taylor Swift, The Red Hot Chili Peppers, and Bruce Springsteen, perhaps a 'believer' is Todd's perfect epithet. And yet with one listen of his "Last Goodbye," you're liable to be a believer as well."
"This is quite a good set of music. "Brand New Day" is the best number of the whole set. It's the most dynamic and creative piece on the disc and it's actually worth the price of admission by itself. It combines folk music, modern rock, and classic rock all into one tapestry that's organic and potent. While these guys might not have completely knocked it out of the park with this album, it's a great showing. It demonstrates a lot of talent in terms of song-writing (the hooks are great) and performance. It bodes well for even stronger efforts from Meadows Fortune in the future. Rating: 3.5 (out of 5) "

BOSTON (July 15, 20213)--A study of nearly half a million people in France found that people who delay retirement have less risk of developing Alzheimer's disease or other types of dementia.
The researchers found that for each additional year a person worked, the risk of getting dementia was reduced by more than 3 percent.
Doctors say the findings make sense.
Working helps keep people physically active, socially connected and mentally challenged, and all of those things help prevent mental decline.
The French government's health research agency did the study and the results were reported Monday at the Alzheimer's Association International Conference in Boston.

PhotonStar Revenues Decline as Floods Delay LED Projects
PhotonStar LED Group Plc, which supplied lighting to the London office of the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, reported a drop in first-half sales as flooding across Europe delayed new projects.
The Swansea, U.K.-based lighting company posted a 13 percent drop in revenue to 3.8 million pounds ($6.4 million), the company said today in a statement. The pretax loss was 601,000 pounds, down from 605,000 pounds a year earlier.
While the company is trying to tap demand for light-emitting diodes, which are smaller, more energy-efficient and have longer lifespans than traditional bulbs, extreme weather and flooding across Europe and the U.K. at the beginning of the year postponed new projects. The company, which has yet to post a profit, said second-half sales would recover.
"Despite the weather-related slow down experienced in the first half of 2014, the group has continued to make progress, and expects this progress to continue into the second half of 2014," PhotonStar said. "As with prior years, sales revenue is expected to be weighted towards the second half of the year, driven by seasonal increases in construction."
The issue of 2.2 million pounds of new stock will be complete by tomorrow, the company said. The funds will be used to introduce the company's Halcyon wireless home lighting system later this year.

Timberwolves fire Wittman
Well, the other shoe finally dropped for Randy Wittman on Monday. As reported here and here (and you can listen to the whole thing here, if you feel like it), Timberwolves owner Glen Taylor "relieved" Wittman of his coaching duties ("how considerate of you, Mr. Taylor, to relieve me,") after an agonizing 4-15 start, replacing him with former VP of Basketball Operations, Kevin McHale.
Now, much of the blame for the present debacle must certainly go to Wittman. With his bewildering and inconsistent rotation, his punitive substitutions, his often PE teacher-ish demeanor, he is certainly responsible for his team's badly frayed psyche. And the on-court result--the painfully timid, anonymous play, the absence of a stylistic identity--that's also largely his bad. But Randy Wittman didn't draft Rashad McCants over Danny Granger (currently dropping 23.1 per game), nor did he trade Brandon Roy for Randy Foye (nor give up a first round pick for Marko Jaric, nor, dang, trade Ray Allen for Stephon Marbury, forfeit years and years of first round picks for the magnificently average Joe Smith, allow Chauncey Billups to walk away, draft Wally Sczerbiak ahead of Richard Hamilton, Andre Miller and Shawn Marion...who's tired?). Luckily for those of us whose eyelids flutter at the mention of the word "accountability," the man who made those very decisions is now at the helm and we'll finally get a chance to see the architect's vision fully realized.
And just what is that vision? A good question. McHale spoke about his desire for a more "open style," a quicker pace, and a more fluid offense, one in which players, rather than hewing to circumscribed positions, played interchangeable roles. All of these things sound great, but the type of team he described needs to be made up of multi-talented (and super-athletic) basketball renaissance men, the Pippens, Garnetts and Marions (not to mention the Danny Grangers and Brandon Roys) of the world.
It seems like many of these current Wolves are not this kind of fella, but rather players with no definable characteristics at all, who fall between niches because they excel at nothing (or who excel in certain ways but are grievously hampered in others). My worry--though all of this might just be a function of the team's youth and their current state of bewildered shellshock-- is that the Wolves are too haphazardly constructed to play in any particular style, that they are aimless at their core. Either way, if McHale's first job is to rebuild the team's identity, to get them playing like confident pros, referring to them as being "like children," as he did toward the end of his remarks on Monday, is not a great start.

Q. In 1936, when I was 9 years old, I got a figure of Gene Autry for Christmas. Do you know what it might be worth today?
--Gene Meeks, Erie, Pa.
A. Gene Autry (1907-1998), the famous singing cowboy, started to gain widespread recognition about the time you were given this figure as a boy. Before going into show business, he worked as a railroad telegrapher in Oklahoma and was encouraged to take his show on the road when Will Rogers heard him singing on the job. When he was 21, Autry started singing for radio audiences. He made his first movie a few years later, in 1934, so by the time your figure was made many people would have recognized him.
Autry, with the easy-going smile reproduced on your figure, played the good guy in radio, movies and television. He made 93 movies and more than 600 records, and co-wrote the well-known tune "Back in the Saddle Again." Even when he left show business in the 1950s, he never left the spotlight entirely. He owned a baseball team and television and radio stations, and was listed for a time in Forbes magazine as one of the richest Americans.
Your Autry figure is in good condition but shows some wear and chips on the hat's brim. Toy collectors generally seek items in mint condition, especially when it comes to popular toys that were made in large quantities. In this case, however, your wonderful figure in his western shirt and chaps is relatively scarce, which increases the value. It is worth about $100.
Q. This blue and white platter has been in our family for at least 60 years. It is marked Wedgwood & Co. with a crown. I don't know its history, so is there anything you can tell me?
--Carole Horan, Fox Lake, Ill.
A. The firm of Wedgwood was founded in 1759 by Josiah Wedgwood in England and still exists today. Based on the mark on the platter's underside, it likely dates from about 1900. Wedgwood is prized for its stunning combination of cobalt blue and white. When the color is first applied, it appears to be gray. But once it is fired in the high heat of a kiln, it turns to the bright blue you now see. Of all the colors used on ceramics, time and time again blue has produced the best results, since the outcome of other colors is less predictable.

For those losing sleep over Speidi's separation, the joke may be on you. Several of Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt's Hills castmates say the duo's breakup is just another one of their publicity stunts.
"I think it's a joke," Audrina Patridge told PEOPLE at the MTV Movie Awards in L.A. Sunday. "I don't believe it. They're inseparable and in love."
Also questioning the validity of the split is Hills-turned-City gal Whitney Port. "I doubt they're really broken up," she said. "I'm sure they're still sticking together."
While there's no official word on whether or not the Pratts will return to The Hills for the final episodes, costar Lo Bosworth thinks Montag and Pratt are hoping a sham split gives them more tube time. "I don't buy it," she said. "I've worked with them for too long, and they haven't been filming, so I think this is a way they think they can get back on the show for the last few episodes.
One person definitely not coming back is the show's original star Lauren Conrad.
"She was on the show for a while and it was her spinoff, so it'd be nice if she could come back for the finale and say one last goodbye," Patridge said. "But she doesn't want to, so that's fine."

Critical Rating: AAA
Genre: All-Sex
Euro section filler.
Two tickets for the closing ceremonies of the Cannes Film Festival pass through numerous larcenous hands in this visually stunning video. All of the girls are gorgeous and turn in very strong performances. Daniella Rush performs an enthusiastic, intense d.p. and Nikki Anderson looks incredible during a sizzling outdoor anal. Unfortunately, the decision to completely overdub all of the sex and dialogue and replace it with poorly acted English (even Dru Berrymore and Herschel Savage are dubbed over!) dialogue. Giving Nikki Anderson, one of Europe's most stunning porn offerings, a vaguely Southern accent is just wrong. The sex is incredible but the dubious dubbing really doesn't help things along.

News Picks : Earthquakes continue around Icelandic volcano
BBC: Although Iceland's Bardarbunga volcano has yet to erupt above ground, it continues to worry scientists. A spate of earthquake activity in mid August had put Iceland's Meteorological Office on high alert. Then earlier this week the subglacial volcano began to erupt. Since Monday a huge subterranean channel of molten rock has been traveling north from Bardarbunga toward another volcano, Askja. As the magma moves, it cracks the rocky ground and has set off numerous earthquakes over a distance of some 40 km. Scientists are concerned that because the magma is moving at a rate of about 4 km/day, it could eventually reach the Askja volcano and trigger a large eruption there. But volcanoes are hard to predict; the magma channel could follow any number of underground fissures and completely bypass Askja, or it could freeze deep underground and stop moving altogether.

I was very impressed with how easy it was to assemble this armoire when I recieved it. All of the parts were inlcuded and I had it put together and my jewlery in it, within an hour. The finish is very nice and the lined drawers are perfect for protecting my jewlery. I would recommend this product to anyone.
the size and color were perfect but when I took it out of the box the left side on the top by the lid the wood was splintered and there were scratches down the first 3 drawers. This was a gift so I glued the wood back down and I had a wood pencil to match and colored it in. She couldnt tell. i waxed it good. It was worth the price though
I was so fasinated with my new Jewelry Armoire, I had to put it together as soon as it arrived. It is such a wonderful addition to my bedroom decor. My daughter helped me arrange my jewelry pieces, and she was rewarded with one of the old boxes. I truly am so glad that I checked Walmart Online before making a purchase else where.
This jewelry armoire was very easy to assemble. It looks like a much more expensive piece. I wasn't impressed with the earring bars in the side doors, 1 of mine was broken. The drawers are big, but there doesn't seem to be as much space for rings as I needed. Overall, for the price, I am satisfied.
This armoire has room to spare. My only complaint is that the drawers are constructed in a way that allows them to hang down/fall out if pulled as far as they can go. That's not much of a problem, considering my wife won't be leaving drawers hanging out all the time. Good product, good price.
This armoire looks great. The wood is easily impressionable, and it does not take polish very well. However, it is easy to assemble, has great compartments, and looks more expensive than it is.
Very easy to assemble. All the jewelry mess on my dresser is now neatly organized and out of sight and the armoire looks great. Great value. Very inexpensive without looking "cheap".
Great product for the price!! Very pleased with the quality. Easy to put together - you only have to attached the legs and the mirror. Site to store pick up with easy and no hastle.
easy to essemble, love the wood and art work, has lots of space that I used the top mirror part as a table to store my perfumes n still have sapce. great product
I love this product. I shopped around for similar jewelry armoires and they were in the hundreds. It is a beautiful piece. I would recommend it to anyone.
It was a lot bigger then I thought it would be, and very easy to put together. Now I have a lot of room for all my jewelry and there is room for more!
I have been looking all over for this armoire. I am very happy with my purchuse and it is very easy to put together. I highly recommend!!!!!!!!!!
This is perfect, inexpensive and easy to put together its very pretty with any decor and pretty sturdy!! highly recommend

Effectiveness of Carbidopa in a High Protein Diet
Posted 06 April 2012 - 04:14 PM
She eats blended food by mouth, and takes approximately 350 calories orally. Her main source of nutrition comes from three (3) cans of Nutren 2.0. She has been on other products but none were able to keep her blood proteins in the correct range. Since changing to Nutren 2.0 in 10/2011, the markers are finally within normal range.
The question is whether the Nutren 2.0 is considered "high protein" and if this will negatively affect her carbidopa medication, which is 25/100 twice per day.
Below is the nutritional information on Nutren 2.0.
500 Calories. Nutren 2.0 is a complete, calorically dense medical food with a balanced nutritional profile containing 16% protein, 39% carbohydrate, and 45% fat. Medium-chain triglycerides constitute 75% of the fat. Vanilla flavored for oral or tube feeding use. Meets or exceeds 100% of the RDI for 20 key vitamins and minerals in 750 ml (3 cans). Osmolality is 745 mOsm/kg water. 2.0 kcal/ml. 80 g Protein/lt. Lactose and gluten free (not for individuals with galactosemia).
Posted 08 April 2012 - 07:15 PM
The key question is whether the feeding is in any way making her PD symptoms worse?
If yes, the more important thing to do is to give the meds a one hour head start before feedings so they can be absorbed and then the protein will be less of a factor.
Hope that helps.

Released: Jan 01st, 1999
Running Time: 91
Director: Anita Rinaldi
Company: Skinflix
Cast: Yvette, Mary (I), Julie (I), Jolt Walton, Andrew Youngman, Leslie (I), Lisa (I), Frank Gun, Anita Blond, Yosette, Nelly (I)
Critical Rating: AAAA 1/2
Genre: All-Sex
Eagerly direct every single customer you have toward this gem. No one will be disappointed.
Warning: This vid should not be viewed by those with heart conditions. The best word to describe Return to Planet Sex is phenomenal. You will be intrigued, captivated, and your sex drive will be revved up enough to run the Daytona 500!
Anita Rinaldi hops into the director's chair once again, having made a fine directorial debut with the original Planet Sex, and enlists some of the premier talent in Europe for RtPS. Stellar production quality, an imaginative director, and breathtaking sex result in a video that's surreal, seductive, and intoxicating.
Rising from bed and venturing to a large bathtub, Anita Blond sets the sensual tone of this video as she caresses and bathes her arousing figure. Blond (who is, incidentally, raven-haired here) wins viewers' hearts as she lovingly sucks Frank Gun's cock, and the two have sex in multiple positions in and around the tub. The superb videography is underlined by a part of this scene where, during some doggie, the camera rests beneath Blond, allowing not only a great penetration shot but also an amazing view of this woman's perfect body as bath milk runs along its curves. A classy facial (yes, there is such a thing) concludes the scene, which fades out after a deep look into Anita Blond's enchanting hazel eyes.
Walking down a hotel hallway, a stunning blonde in a business suit observes a variety of sexual escapades (such as a man with a pig's face eating out a girl in room 666) before being taken into one of her own with a well-hung stud. Surrounded by dozens of candles in the middle of a chamber, the sex between them is fast-paced, culminating in an anal doggie that would please even the most jaded of porn fans.
A black-and-white checkered room is the next setting in our progressively surreal vid. This scene is highlighted by the reverse cowgirl that Andrew Youngman shares with a tall brunette, not to mention the standing doggie anal that seems to have been patented by the guys in this tape.
If the rest of this feature (or this review, for that matter) has inspired you, then the final scene will completely blow you away. It has to be one of the finest sex scenes ever shot. Two absolutely gorgeous girls, one with neon blue hair and the other with bright pink hair, slowly descent on silver lifts to greet Frank Gun and Zenza Raggi. The four create a kind of human sex ladder on a metal staircase, with Raggi at the bottom licking one of the girls' pussies as she sucks Gun, as he licks the other girl. The coup de grace comes when the girls are in a sort of 69, while Gun delivers an anal doggie to the top girl as Raggi takes the road more traveled with the bottom girl. Like all good things, this scene has to come to an end, but a d.p. and double cumshot make it a little more easy to bear.
Bridging each scene is footage of the lovely directress herself, who dances and teases playfully, albeit briefly, before the camera. Behind the camera, Rinaldi oversees the immense effort that has gone into this video. The camerawork is flawless, the lighting and visual effects are top-notch by any standard, and the editing is awe-inspiring: so precise that all (sex) position changes have been left on the cutting room floor, leaving nothing to slow down the action.
As this work was produced from the heart, so do the following pre-nominations come from the heart: Best All-Sex Video, Best Foreign Release, Best Director-Video (Anita Rinaldi), Best Videography (Antonio Adamo), Best Editing-Video, Best Group Sex Scene-Video (the finale), and last but not least, Best Art Direction-Video (Ami McDowell).

All Rise...
In his continuing ode to David Bowie, ground control (helmed by Judge Ryan Keefer) is telling Major Tom that the circuit is fine, what's with the worrying?
Editor's Note
Our reviews of Blue Planet (IMAX) (published June 28th, 2001) and Blue Planet (IMAX) (HD DVD) (published August 16th, 2007) are also available.
The Charge
From 200 miles above Earth's surface, we see how natural forces—volcanoes, earthquakes and hurricanes—affect our planet, and how a powerful new force—humankind—has begun to alter the face of the Earth. From Amazon rain forests to Serengeti grasslands, Blue Planet inspires a new appreciation of life on Earth, our only home.
The Case
I've already discussed my childhood space infatuation and won't bore you with it again, but instead of looking first at the highlight for this Blu-ray disc, which is the IMAX feature Blue Planet, I first wanted to look at The Dream is Alive, a slightly shorter film directed by Star Wars sound designer Ben Burtt. In this film, produced in 1985 and shot by the NASA astronauts and supporting crew, you get a good idea of just some of the preparation involved when getting ready for a shuttle mission like the one that recently launched. Narrated by Walter Cronkite, you are an intimate viewer into the lives of the astronauts before and during a mission.
A couple of postscripts to this experience; the first being that the camera footage of the astronauts is extensive, perhaps too much. Watching the astronauts sleep is an experience that is part creepy and part surreal. Imagine sleeping in a sleeping bag, but not having control of your arms. It's like throwing a mannequin into a lake and watching it sink, its pose frozen as it descends. Not that I've done that or anything, I've just heard. The other postscript is slightly more serious, which is that the astronauts that can be recognized and/or heard over the course of the feature. One of whom is Sally Ride, also known as the first American woman in space, so bully for her. The other is Dick Scobee. While the name might not be instantly familiar to most, he was the last voice from the Challenger shuttle before its 1986 explosion. To see Scobee in more pleasurable times doth have a morbid overtone to the feature.
Moving on to Blue Planet, released in 1990, with a clever blend of footage shot from outer space, along with amazing shots of nature in its splendor and glory. One has to wonder whether or not the folks who created the excellent Planet Earth miniseries took their cue from this. There are shots that really show off the beauty in nature, not to mention the fury. There is a bit of time devoted to the carnage in the wake of 1987's Hurricane Hugo, and some split screen footage showing the affect on man, beast and nature. In what becomes a recurring (and annoying) part of the disc, some of the environmental sounds are clearly recorded in afterwards. While Blue Planet is eerily similar to what was seen on Planet Earth, it seems to take the message of conservation and preservation to a new level of rhetoric. Planet Earth let the scenery speak for itself, save for a couple of pro-environment statements here and there by the narrator. Here, it seems that more attention is paid to the dialogue than to the scenery, and it dampens the intended impact in this man's opinion.
Both films are presented in the 1.78:1 anamorphic widescreen format, with Blue Planet getting the nod to quality, as The Dream is Alive's picture quality is hampered not only by time but also by a fairly distracting film grain that hampers blacks and reduces image clarity. Blue Planet also appears through a fish-eyed lens at times (perhaps that was an issue with reformatting the aspect ratio of the initial feature), but the image looks great on Blu-ray. It's not demo-worthy, but it's a solid case to upgrade to the latest and greatest video format. Both films are come with TrueHD tracks, with Blue Planet possessing a slight edge again, due to time. Both features possess a lot of environmental affects and each offers a shuttle/rocket launch designed to give your subwoofer a chance to do what it likes to do best.
It's clear that with either The Dream is Alive or Blue Planet, you're going to be getting a pretty impressive visual show for forty minutes or so. The problem with both features is that they dazzle you a bit too much. The voice of "the most trusted man in America" is vastly underused in the first film, and I felt in the second like I was being guilt-tripped into flushing twice instead of once, it was that preachy to me. Regardless, fans of either feature will be happy to see these appear not only on one disc, but as a Blu-ray disc where it's presentation has never looked better.

I ordered this item as a wedding present as it certainly ticked all the boxes in terms of being Fairtrade, recycled, ethnic and spiritual, which is what the couple asked for, I ordered it two weeks before the wedding, hoping it would arrive in time. In fact it took one week to "process" at Overstock.com before even being prepared for shipping, which wasted time and it ended up not arriving in time to give the gift at the wedding. When it arrived, I was really glad I'd had it delivered to my home and not directly to the couple, as it came with just a cardboard backing sheet, covered with a bit of torn plastic and unceremoniously shoved into an outer carton with no protective packaging. So it then flew half way around the world and it's no surprise that it arrived with a little damage (bent leaf). Luckily, this was easily bent back into shape. I would certainly love to buy this item for myself as it's beautiful, but I would be wary of ordering anything fragile from Overstock.com in the future unless they buck up their ideas on the packaging front. I'd also never order anything from them in a hurry as their processing seems to take an excessive amount of time.
- Did the color match the color displayed onsite? Yes
- How is the quality of the product? Well crafted, good quality product, suitable for giving as a gift
- Did the product fit true to size? Yes and suitable as a bold statement piece in a small room
I am so happy to have bought this piece. it is a real conversation piece! I have been diagnosed with ALS and am losing my life bit by bit. I bought this piece to remind me that I am still alive and have the ability to enjoy a wonder piece of art like this.
- Did the color match the color displayed onsite? exact
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. wonderful craftsmenship.
- How accurate was the sizing? perfect
I love, love, love, this tree of life. It is everything I wanted and more. I cannot wait to display it. I also love the fact that it isn't heavy, making it easier to hang. Sometimes you find these metal pieces and they are thin and cheap looking; I assure you this one isn't. I am also impressed with the fact that this has been created by hand. I love unique things. I like the fact that someone might walk into my home and be looking at this creation for the first time. I must admit though, it does have a little odor ...but considering the fact that it was made from an oil drum, II am not surprised. I have instructions for making that odor disappear. If anybody is on the fence about ordering this, hop off the fence now. You won't be disappointed. I am going to do some research and try to buy another piece from this collection : )
I love the idea of both using reclaimed materials and of supporting Haitian artists but this just didn't do it for me. The piece is the size stated and the workmanship (metal cutting) is nicely enough done but what is not mentioned is that this piece is clear-coated with a very high-gloss finish that gives it a plastic-y look. It does not look like shiney metal. It looks like glossy clear plastic over metal. This is reclaimed metal and would have looked so much better with a matte or satin finish, if any. I was really disappointed but instead of returning it, I gave it as a gift to a friend (with different art & decorating tastes) and she loves it.
This piece is beautiful. I bought it to put in my foyer. It is unique and well done. The birds are very clearly sculpted. Great buy!
I was so delighted when I unpacked this beautiful craftwork. It is simply gorgeous and arrived very safely and in excellent condition. The colour is sublime and it is so easy to hang with a couple of screws into the wall. Thank you so much to the artisan who made this for me, it has already been much admired by visitors
in fact it is quite difficult to sign these pieces, and having lived in Haiti for 16 years I suspect that the artist has no idea it ended up in the US, but rather bought in bulk and sold. The stamping effect is in reality a lot of hard work and sweat as oil drums are pounded and cut by hand, the work that goes into these pieces is insane. I have several pieces that I hand selected from an artist village .. I burnished some of mine with a soft gold from hobby lobby and wiped it off. You may to check your piece every once in a while for rusting spots if displayed on an outside wall.
The first one I received was damanged in shipment and it was quite bent. I was then sent a new one, right away, and it was in perfect condition. It was packed better. It is unique, and quite pretty, but it is much lighter in weight then what I expected. I would recommend it especially to people who are interested in helping countries in need.
- Did the color match the color displayed onsite? yes
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. good quality
- How accurate was the sizing? accurate
Beautiful piece. Already received compliments. Great for a house warming gift.
This item is exactly as shown and described, even the coloring. I love the handmade quality about it and the old age, but whimsical design. Good craftsmanship.
CAUTION when opening...Just got this in the mail and none of the pointy edges have been filed down, they feel like little knives......This would not be allowed to be sold an America store without fear of a lawsuit. OK with that said...it's OK. I do like the pattern and the meaning for me...it is way over priced..But I am handy with my tools and a paint brush...so I will keep it....As for recommending it...I would but not without a strong warning first.
I love this piece for three main reasons! 1. It looks awesome in my family room - beautiful, different piece and handcrafted 2. It's made from recycled oil drums - love that it's EcoFriendly 3. It promotes employment in Haiti by training unskilled, but often highly gifted, craftspeople
- Did the color match the color displayed onsite? Yes
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. Satisfied - no complaints here
- How accurate was the sizing? n/a
The detail of this piece is exquisite. It's a great art form, and it looks great hanging in the dining room. It doesn't come with hangers, but I used small hooks and affixed it with ease. Recommended.
- Did the color match the color displayed onsite? Almost exactly.
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. This is very well crafted.
- How accurate was the sizing? Spot on.
This is a unusual Beautiful piece of Art. The stamped detail is good and the finish is a nice brown semi gloss so it hi lights the image. It is not real heavy so it hang easily on a small nail. Very Very nice Artistic piece.
- Did the color match the color displayed onsite? Very close.
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. High quality, looks very good
- How accurate was the sizing? Very accurate
I purchased this metal Tree of Life Oil Drum Art for my newly remodeled kitchen/dining room. The artwork is lightweight and a beautiful bronze color. It is perfect as a backsplash accent behind a cooktop if an accent is needed. It would also work fine as wall decor in almost any room of the house. I am very happy with the art and love the story behind it's fabrication!
Clean, interesting and unique - exactly what I was looking for. Harmonizes perfectly with the "earth tones" in the room. It was a snap to hang. I have received many comments and compliments on it. Highly recommend as a quality piece to add to your home.
Nice and unusual addition... glad to be supporting the artists, too.
I wanted a large, unique piece to fill the space on a small wall in my home. This piece fit the bill. It is truly beautiful. The edges are a little sharp but it is hanging on the wall so that is of little worry. Unlike the piece received by one of the other reviewers, mine did not have a thick glossy plastic-y coating -- just metal with a lovely patina. Given the size and substance of this piece I feel it was good value.
A beautiful piece that hangs proudly on our wall. However, I think it's important to note that the piece was not signed, as others indicated. And, though many have discussed the handwork, by our eyes, this appears to be at least partialy stamped. It is silverish with a bronze tone over it, so the color will vary depending on how much and what kind of light shines on it.
Originally purchased this for indoors but we have it outdoors.

India Stocks Lure Most Flows in 5 Weeks on Rate Cut Hopes
Overseas funds bought the most Indian equities in five weeks on speculation slowing wholesale-price inflation and falling commodity prices will spur the central bank to cut interest rates next week.
Foreigners bought $292.1 million more of local stocks than they sold last week, the most since the period ended March 15, data from the nation's market regulator showed. The purchases boosted this year's net inflows to $10.6 billion, the second-largest amount among 10 Asian markets tracked by Bloomberg, behind Japan.
India's S&P BSE Sensex posted its steepest advance in more than four months last week as data showed wholesale-price growth slowed to a 40-month low in March. Brent oil slid below $100 a barrel for the first time since July last week and gold slid the most since 1983, reducing import costs for the two commodities that fueled India's record current-account gap in the last quarter of 2012. The country ships in more than 80 percent of its oil and is the world's largest bullion buyer.
"India will benefit from the lower oil prices as it is a net importer of oil and the drop in gold, given that they are heavy importers, will help the current-account deficit," James Thom, a fund manager at Aberdeen Asset Management Plc, said in a phone interview from Singapore April 19.
The shortfall in the nation's current account, together with a consumer-inflation rate that exceeds 10 percent, has deterred the Reserve Bank of India from making further cuts to borrowing costs after 25 basis-point reductions in January and March. The central bank may reduce its key rate by another 25 basis points, or 0.25 percentage point, at a May 3 review, according to 14 of 16 economists surveyed by Bloomberg.
Ignite Growth
Another rate cut would help revive economic growth, Finance Minister Palaniappan Chidambaram said in an April 19 interview from Washington, where he was attending meetings of the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank. Chidambaram also met investors in the U.S. and Canada in a bid to woo capital to fund the current-account deficit.
"Conditions are shaping up positively for us," Ashima Goyal, a member of the Reserve Bank of India's technical advisory committee, said in an interview April 16. She is part of the panel that makes recommendations to RBI Governor Duvvuri Subbarao on setting monetary policy. "As inflation comes down as a result of commodity prices softening, policy makers can encourage growth more," Goyal said.
Declines in oil and gold may help cut India's import costs by almost $7 billion in the 12 months to March 2014, Barclays Plc analysts wrote in an April 17 note.
Fund Inflows
Overseas funds bought a net $152 million of local shares on April 22, taking the month's net purchases to $454 million, data from the regulator show. Inflows into Indian equities may continue, Brahmaprakash Singh, chief investment officer for equities at Pramerica Asset Managers Pvt., said in Mumbai today.
"In the past, we have seen high global liquidity being accompanied by higher commodity prices, but the current scenario of abundant liquidity and falling commodity prices presents a good opportunity for Indian markets," he said.
The Sensex fell 7.3 percent in the five weeks to April 12 on concern the slowest economic expansion since 2003 and the highest inflation rate among major emerging nations will curb profit growth. Net income at about 43 percent of the 30 Sensex-listed companies trailed analysts' forecasts in the three months ended Dec. 31, compared with 40 percent in the previous two quarters, data compiled by Bloomberg show.
Wholesale Prices
The index trades at 12.9 times projected 12-month profit, down from this year's peak of 13.8 in January. The MSCI Emerging Markets Index trades at 10.2 times. Indian markets were closed for a holiday April 19.
Inflation in Asia's third-biggest economy, as measured by the wholesale-price index, slowed to a more than three-year low of 5.96 percent in March. The consumer gauge increased 10.39 percent last month from a year earlier. India's gross domestic product rose 5 percent last fiscal year, the weakest pace since 2003, according to statistics agency estimates.
Prime Minister Manmohan Singh's government has been taking steps since September to open India's economy to more foreign investment, curb the budget shortfall and speed up stalled infrastructure projects. The measures prompted foreign funds to buy a net $24.5 billion of stocks last year, the most among 10 Asian markets tracked by Bloomberg. The Sensex rallied 26 percent in 2012, the measure's best performance in three years.
Foreigners have been net sellers of Indian stocks in just two of the past 13 years, based on data compiled by Bloomberg going back to 2000. Inflows climbed to a record $29.3 billion in 2010, making the Sensex the best performer among the world's 10 biggest markets that year. The largest-ever outflow in 2008 amid the global financial crisis triggered the biggest annual slump of 52 percent.

Eastside athletics has had a great spring. The men's track and field team won its first ever state title, and the baseball team had ...
In only his second season as head coach of the Eastside High School baseball team, Bruce Evans has been named the Region 4-AAAA Co-Coach of ...
The Eastside Eagles baseball team's storybook season came to an end on May 16, when it was defeated by No.1 ranked Buford Wolves ...
Page 1 of 1
Eastside hosted Locust Grove on Friday night and both the boys and the girls got a victory to improve their region records as the season winds down. The boys improved to 10-9 overall and 6-6 in Region 4-AAAA. The girls improved to 8-12 overall and 7-5 in region 4-AAAA.
Earlier in the week, there was social media uproar from Eastside soccer students because they were told they wouldn't be able to play home games at Sharp Stadium this year. Eastside's soccer field isn't in the condition it needs to be in to allow students to play on it, and Sharp is the only alternative.
Looking at their record (5-10, 4-3 Region 4-AAAA) you would think that the Lady Eagles of Eastside are struggling through this basketball season. But for their sake, they are above .500 where it matters, with a 4-3 record in Region 4-AAAA play. Eastside was able to pick up its fourth region win of the season on Friday night with a 58-50 win over Eagle's Landing. With that win, Eastside has won three straight region games.
Eastside entered the new year on a four-game winning streak after losing four straight games, but head coach Gregory Freeman still has reservations about his team's current level of play.
Eastside's offense came alive in the first half, but Thomson's defensive pressure changed that in the second half. Still, the Eagles came away with a victory to improve their record to 6-6 on the season.
From the beginning, momentum was on the Eagles' side and they rode that wave out to a convincing 78-72 victory over Southwest Atlanta Christian.
As school starts back, region play will come to the forefront of the season and each team will be truly tested to see who's a pretender and who's a contender. Some teams are off to hot starts, while others have come out of the gate slow. We take a look at where each team is and grade them on their current play and tease where they can go in the near future.
The Eastside boys and girls basketball teams have gotten off to slow starts this season. After both teams made waves last year, they were depleted by the departure of key senior players who moved on to college. The Eagles (3-6, 2-3 Region 4-AAAA) and the Lady Eagles (2-7, 2-3 Region 4-AAAA) both got wins over Pike County on Friday night to move them in the right direction at the quarter mark of the season.
The athletes of the week for the week of December 15, 2014 are Marquise Sims (Eastside), Darnell Jeffries (Alcovy) and D.J. Hill (Newton).
Here are your basketball scores for Eastside and Alcovy for December 19.
It was a crosstown clash Saturday evening as the Tigers of Alcovy traveled 13.6 miles to Eastside High School to take on the Eagles. It was great atmosphere at the game and both schools took home a win.
The athletes of the week for the week of December 1, 2014 are Darion "D.J." Hill (Newton), Janelle Cook (Eastside) and Autumn Evans & Madison Beazley.
For the first time this season, Newton and Eastside's basketball teams will face-off, continuing a rivalry that has been a thing since Eastside was established in the mid '90s. The Lady Rams are 4-1 and the boys are undefeated at 5-0. The Eagles haven't played as many games yet, but both the girls and boys are 1-1.
After starting their seasons with a loss over Thanksgiving Break, the boys' and girls' basketball teams of Eastside came back with a vengeance on Tuesday against Riverdale.
Eastside softball is represented well on the 2014 4-AAAA All-Region team. Caitlin Ray (infield), Madison Hopper (pitcher) and Bailey Stewart (catcher) were all named to the first team. McKenzie Powell (infield) and Brittany Medlin (outfield) were named to the second team. The Lady Eagles finished their season with a record of 16-6.

My point was that they do not report like regular creditors. They pull your credit report because everyone pulls your credit report to do anything these days. I opened a savings account and they pulled my credit report. My car insurance company pulled my credit report just to give me a quote.
With some exceptions perhaps - I've never seen it, you will only see them pop up on your credit report if you default on money they say you owe them for services or goods rendered. Technically, that may be the behavior of a creditor, but that's not what they are in the FICO world
The response I provided was in answer to the statement wishing good payments to these types of entities would show up.
