CFL Blitz: Grey Cup Game ticket sales slow down

Has the penalty-filled, defence-dominated CFL season taken a toll on Grey Cup Game ticket sales?
For the first time since 2008, tickets to the CFL's championship match are still available for purchase at the end of September. Jamie Pitblado, who is the general manager of the 102nd Grey Cup Game in Vancouver, reported Tuesday there are more than 7,600 ducats remaining for the big game at BC Place on Nov. 30.
"We've really seen things sort of pick up," Pitblado said. "As we turned into fall and football became a little bit more important in the fans' minds, it's picked up some steam.
"We're seeing great interest from the western clubs, as you would expect, A) by nature of how well they're doing and B) by proximity."
It's rare, at least in recent history, for the Grey Cup Game to not be sold out at this time of year. Last year's game in Regina was sold out on July 17, and all tickets for the 100th game in Toronto were spoken for by July 21. The 98th Grey Cup Game (June 7) and 97th (Sept. 8) were also hot sellers as well.
Pitblado noted that BC Place is bigger than most CFL parks and he's confident the place will be packed at the end of November.
"We certainly expect to sell this game out sooner than later as momentum continues to build here," he said. "So I'm encouraging people who are interested to take advantage of the opportunity now and try to secure the best seats they can and not wait too long."
Vancouver is hosting the game for the third time in 10 years, so perhaps the excitement has worn off for those in the Lower Mainland. Also, BC Place was newly renovated when the Grey Cup was played there in 2011.
"Three years later that honeymoon has kind of worn off a little bit, and in some cases the game was just here," Pitblado said.
As teams start to solidify their playoff positions and the half-time act is announced (expect that in the next few days or week), Pitblado figures sales will pick up even more.
"Hopefully that'll spark a little bit of interest," he said, "and sell a few tickets."
From the strange but true files, the East Division came within a second overtime period of sweeping the West Division on the weekend.
Could this mean the crossover is in danger? Probably not, but it will be something to watch for in the next couple of weeks. Hamilton, Toronto and Montreal are all playing better football of late thanks to quarterbacks Zach Collaros, Ricky Ray and Jonathan Crompton, respectively, but the biggest problem they face if they're all going to qualify for the post-season is they have to play each other down the stretch.
B.C. and Winnipeg have tough schedules the rest of the way, but they both have the RedBlacks once. So there's a good chance the crossover will still go into effect.
Adarius Bowman is beautiful and tough to watch, all at the same time.
The Eskimos receiver is running away with the receiving yards race, as his 1,048 yards are more than 300 yards clear of B.C.'s Emmanuel Arceneaux, but the number of drops he's had must be alarming to the Edmonton coaching staff.
Bowman had a glorious chance to make a big catch against the Tiger-Cats late in Saturday night's game, but it went right off his mitts. It wasn't the first time that's happened, and he's also fumbled four times this season, losing two of them.
The Eskimos need him to clean that up so he can be their go-to guy when they need him most.
The Tiger-Cats announced Tuesday that running back C.J. Gable is likely done for the year with a shoulder injury suffered against the Eskimos. So now it's up to Mossis Madu to run the ball in Steeltown ... Montreal's Brandon Whitaker has taken the league rushing lead from Winnipeg's Nic Grigsby ... Toronto's win over B.C. in Vancouver means the East Division is now 2-22 on the road this season ... The Stampeders are scoring the most points and allowing the fewest per game ... The players of the week are Tiger-Cats quarterback Zach Collaros (offensive), Ticats defensive end Eric Norwood (defensive), Roughriders receiver-returner Weston Dressler (special teams) and Argos linebacker Shea Emry (Canadian).
Drew Willy will find a way to start Saturday's game against the Tiger-Cats. The Bombers quarterback apears to be one of the toughest SOBs around, and he won't let a little throwing shoulder pain stop him from taking on the Tabbies.
"The best part about being in a cast, is I finally have use for all my mix matched single socks! #thisblows."
-- Alouettes defensive tackle Mike Klassen (@mikeklassen90), who dislocated his left ankle in Sunday's win over the Stampeders
The Ottawa RedBlacks were 1-9 when Brett Maher lined up to kick the potential game-tying field goal in overtime Sunday in Regina.
It should have been Henry Burris under centre instead.
Maher's kick was blocked, so the RedBlacks didn't get the point that wouldn't have really done them any good anyway. They needed the win, and they should have gone for the touchdown.
Head coach Rick Campbell`s squad did a fantastic job against the defending Grey Cup champs up to that point, and a win was there for the taking. The Roughriders had to settle for a field goal on their second and final possession of overtime, so a RedBlacks touchdown would've given the expansion team just their second win of the season and actually put them back in the East Division playoff race.
Instead, they didn't even get the single point for the tie. It was the football gods telling them they should have gone for it.
CFL coaches and managers give their anonymous thoughts on what they're talking about behind closed doors:
I told my guys if we were 1-9 like Ottawa was, we would have gone for the win in that second overtime. To hell with a tie. What does a tie do for your locker-room? What does a tie do for your fans? Toronto, Hamilton and Montreal – all of them have four wins over in the East. The only chance Ottawa had to make the playoffs – the only chance – was to win that game ... What a difference a month makes. The East teams are getting healthy, while the West teams are dealing with a lot of new issues ... Yeah, Saskatchewan was lucky. So what? Good teams find a way to win. The Riders did ... A 45-yarder with everything on the line? I'll take McCallum or Paredes ... Lot of talk about points being down this year. One of my offensive coaches called it like it is. Want us to score more points? Then the officials need to start calling holding on defensive backs more. Edmonton and Montreal are the worst. I've worked with Chris Jones and Noel Thorpe, and they learned that philosophy from Don Matthews. They tug jerseys in the secondary every play because they know refs will only call it on you three or four times a game. But the other 25 to 30 passes? Advantage defence when you're getting away with grabbing ... I was surprised the RedBlacks didn't go for it on their second possession in OT ... How do you not go for it? You're 1-9 ... Adarius Bowman isn't an MOP candidate in my book. He's having a very good season, but there are too many good CFL receivers for one to ever be MOP ... It doesn't sound like anyone will offer Ottawa enough for them to deal Burris ... I'm hearing Brandon Boudreaux is on the block in Hamilton. The Ticats are probably looking for another running back with Gable out ... Toronto is going to win the East. Montreal may have the best defence over there, but the Argos have the best quarterback in the league and they have best punter and kicker, too. The way he's kicking right now, Waters is the best at both. Can't think of a better dual kicker in our league in the past 10 years ... Winnipeg would have to do a lot of other things way better if Brohm plays over Willy, like run the ball more effectively and create more turnovers ... Number zero (Rico Murray) over at Hamilton is good. He plays multiple positions for them and wherever they have him, he make plays ... Chris Jones didn't handle the end of the Hamilton game very well. With a gale force wind behind them, go for two and kick the single on the kickoff – or at least try to ... Without Bo Levi Mitchell playing in Calgary, the loss of Cornish was that much more noticeable ... Chick or Willis? You want me to pick one? That's tough. Never coached either or them, so it's impossible for me to know what their intangibles are. But off film I would probably take Willis over Chick. His first step is more explosive, and he redirects like a linebacker. But then Chick plays the run better. He's strong. More physical at the point of attack. Let me change that. I'll take Chick ... It's pretty simple: The East is getting better quarterback play, so everything is starting to balance out.
A tip of the cap to the Canadian Football Hall of Fame for its latest induction class and the location of its annual Hall of Fame game.
Ben Cahoon, Uzooma Okeke and Wally Buono were all enshrined over the weekend in Montreal, and all of them had ties to the city. Cahoon and Okeke were stars in the city for the Alouettes, while Buono grew up in the city and was a linebacker for the Als in the 1970s.
The rest of the class sparkled as well: Bombers running back Charles Roberts, CIS star Neil Lumsden, CIS coaching legend Larry Haylor, and Rough Riders offensive lineman and kicker Moe (The Toe) Racine.
By all accounts it was a great ceremony and dinner on Saturday night, and the players were feted during half-time of the Alouettes-Stampeders game on Sunday.
The 2015 class will be announced two days before this year's Grey Cup game in Vancouver.
4-3 – Montreal's home record
0-5 – Montreal's road record
4-2 – Hamilton's home record
0-5 – Hamilton's road record
1. (1) Calgary
They were missing their No. 1 quarterback, running back, receiver and defensive end.
2. (4) Saskatchewan
Even though it was in OT against the expansion team, they won. Nuff said.
3. (2) Edmonton
If Adarius Bowman could have held on to the ball, they might have beaten the Ticats.
4. (5) Hamilton
The way the Tabbies are playing at home, fourth in the West doesn't look so good.
5. (6) Toronto
They got a rare win in Vancouver, and they quickly got over the Calgary debacle.
The Lions seem to have a problem dealing with prosperity, and they need to fix it.
(8) Montreal
Let's just say the Alouettes played the Stampeders at the perfect time.
8. (7) Winnipeg
They finally got their bye week to heal bumps, but they're still banged up.
9. (9) Ottawa
They put up a valiant effort against the Riders, but the losing streak hits eight.
Friday, 7 p.m. EDT
Montreal at Ottawa (+2.5)
They can't lose nine in a row, can they? RedBlacks by 4.
Friday, 10 p.m. EDT
Saskatchewan at Edmonton (-5.5)
The quarterback matchup favours the hosts. Eskimos by 7.
Saturday, 6:30 p.m. EDT
Hamilton at Winnipeg (OTB)
The Tabbies are due for a road win against the banged-up Blue. Ticats by 6.
Saturday, 9:30 p.m. EDT
B.C. at Calgary (OTB)
The Red and White will find a way to rebound at home. Stampeders by 3.
Last week: 2-2
Overall: 39-12

An October survey by market research firm ChangeWave spells doom for manufacturers of netbooks. While just a few holiday seasons ago the cheap little PCs were on everyone's Christmas list, now they're only attractive to 14% of people who are considering the purchase of a laptop computer. At their peak, almost a quarter of laptop customers wanted inexpensive netbooks.
Why the big change in such a short amount of time? The iPad, which is attracting the attention of buyers who want a small, portable device for web browsing and email. It doesn't appear that the upcoming flood of iPad competitors is having much of an effect, either. ChangeWave's data (based on a sample size of 3,108 consumers) shows that a whopping 80% of potential tablet buyers are considering the iPad, a figure 10 times that of the next closest competitor -- the still-unreleased RIM Playbook. A tiny 3% of tablet buyers are opting for the Android-based (and also unreleased) Samsung Galaxy Tab (see next page for graphic).

"The honor is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our entire team in making the purchase and sale of unwanted gift cards a daily reality for hundreds of thousands of Americans", said Elliot Bohm, CEO and co-founder of CardCash.com.
Brick, NJ (PRWEB) January 28, 2014
CardCash.com, the web's leading discounted gift card exchange, was ranked this week as the 14th Most Promising Company in America by Forbes magazine. This is the second straight year that CardCash.com was included by Forbes in their annual ranking of America's Most Promising Companies -- a holistic list of 100 privately held, high-growth companies with bright futures.
"We're honored to be recognized by Forbes for the second straight year as one of America's companies on the rise", said Elliot Bohm, CEO and co-founder of CardCash.com. "The honor is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our entire team in making the purchase and sale of unwanted gift cards a daily reality for hundreds of thousands of Americans.
In 2013 CardCash.com's explosive growth continued, with revenue rising by more than 300%, from $17 million in 2012 to $56 million in 2013. The growth is in line with what CardCash has seen since its inception in 2008.
Among the highlights in 2013 for CardCash.com were: entering into a number of strategic partnerships in the secondary gift card marketplace; beginning to accept the sale of digital gift cards as the industry trends towards electronic gift cards; and closing on $6 million in Series A venture funding from Guggenheim Partners in November.
CardCash.com's secure gift card marketplace allows the website to purchase gift cards from over 700 merchants, offering as much as 97% of the card's value for cards that would otherwise go unused. CardCash then turns around and sells these cards to consumers who are happy to save as much as 35% on their everyday purchases.
Annual gift card sales exceed $110 billion annually in the United States, according to a recent survey from the CEB Tower Group. As that number continues to grow, nearly 10% of those cards go unspent every year. To help access that locked-up capital, CardCash.com provides a simple and secure online exchange that allows consumers to convert these unused cards into cash.
Forbes Methodology
Forbes' third annual list of America's Most Promising Companies recognizes 100 privately-held, high-growth companies. Companies that made the cut boast compelling business models, strong management teams, as well as notable customers and investors.
Forbes strove for a holistic gauge of young, privately-held businesses, attempting to pin down their trajectories by taking a range of variables into account. Over the course of four months Forbes reviewed hundreds of applications. The final assessment is based on growth (both in sales and hiring), quality of management teams and investors, margins, market size and key partnerships. After verifying sales numbers, speaking with each company and debating their merits and blemishes, Forbes produces a final ranking.
The full list of companies is available online at http://www.forbes.com/most-promising-companies/list/
About CardCash.com
Headquartered in Brick, NJ and backed by Guggenheim Patners, CardCash.com presently offers the largest selection of discounted gift cards online and has the highest standards of security implemented to help streamline the sales and purchases of gift cards on the secondary market.
CardCash.com was previously ranked by Forbes as #85 on America's 100 Most Promising Companies for 2013, and by Inc Magazine two years running, in both 2012 and 2013, on the Inc. 500's list of fastest growing private companies in America.

New lock gates for Milford
Mon, 08 December 2014
A giant set of new lock gates has arrived by barge in Milford Haven, UK. The gates are part of the Port's £6m Milford Dock Lock Project which will reduce locking times and, hopes Milford Dock, help make the marina one of the UK's top marine leisure destinations.
The gates which weigh 90 tonnes each were built in the Netherlands and brought over by barge ahead of schedule due to favourable weather conditions.
Welcoming the arrival is chief executive Alec Don, who said "It is really exciting to see this project nearing completion. It will make Milford Dock one of the most accessible tidal docks in the UK- great news for fishermen and sailors using the dock as a base to access the waterway and coastline of Pembrokeshire. The Port is investing nearly £6 million in this project because we believe fishing and water-based leisure can bring even greater benefits to the local economy. A modern, efficient dock brings more business here, more investment, spending and jobs." He added "We are extremely grateful to our customers who've shown incredible patience. As you can see we are very nearly there."
The project to build new gates in the lock is part of Visit Wales' Coastal Tourism Project, part funded by the European Regional Development Fund through the Welsh Government, to encourage tourism along the Welsh coastline.
The Port of Milford Haven is responsible for the biggest port in Wales, and is the third largest port in the UK. Each year it handles around 29% of Britain's seaborne trade in oil and gas.

There is a Yahoo group for people who like the stamps from De Stempelwinkel. Because it is impossible to invite you all personally, I would like to invite you to join this group through this message. Follow this link http://groups.yahoo.com/group/destempelwinkel and join!
What is the intention of this group?
It should be an international group, where everybody can write in her/his own language and show her/his artwork. With the aid of internet translation programs that should be possible without too much problems.
Through this group it is also possible to organise swaps, or arrange transport to a show where De Stempelwinkel is present, or to my shop (not open yet!)
The only condition is that you have to use stamps that are being sold by De Stempelwinkel.
It is also my intention to keep the quantity of e-mails to a minimum. Everybody can make her/his own photo album (with your own name) and use it to show all your artwork. Yahoo updates will tell everybody that there are new photos, so you don't need to send an e-mail to tell everybody that you posted something. If you click on an image it will be enlarged, and you will find a box underneath it where you can leave your comment. So you don't need to send an e-mail with your comment!
When you want to ask someone about how the artwork is made, you can find her/his e-mail address in the memberslist, and you can send them a personal e-mail, not through the group.
I have already made a database where you can leave your name and address information, in case you want to join swaps. I have also made a list with links to my webshops and to the designteamblog. Just click the link and you will get there!
Other databases I have made are:
a database where you can enter your blog(s)
a database "dictionary", where I want to collect stampingterms in dutch, english and german (because translationprograms often cannot handle them)
a list of workshops and the possibility to enter your name (sorry for those of you living too far away, but when you are planning a vacation to The Netherlands you are welcome!) This list will be published when I have opened my shop.
a list of shows (of course only the ones where De Stempelwinkel will be present)
Of course my newsletters will also be published in the group, in three languages to avoid translation problems.
I hope this group will be very inspiring, enjoyable and e-mailquiet. Sharing ideas and tips is the main goal.
Does this appeal to you? Then join this group!
There also is a Stampscapes Yahoo group for those who would like to see and show more Stampscapes work.
Does this appeal to you? Then join this group!
Best wishes,
Jetske Masmeijer

Why does the E1 emulator won't start up on lower power supply voltage?
Latest Updated:08/08/2013
In a new application using the RL78/G13, I'm trying to use a lower power supply voltage than I had used in a previous application. However, the E1 emulator won't start up on this lower power supply voltage. Both the target and the E1 had been operating satisfactorily until now.
The cause is probably the reset of the RL78/G13 not being released, due to the LVD voltage set by the option byte of the RL78/G13 mounted on the target being higher than the new power supply voltage. Start up with the previous [higher] power supply voltage, and then either write content where the option byte has been changed to the "LVD off" setting, or write content where the detection voltage has been changed to lower than the new [lower] power supply voltage. (Or, you can erase the flash using a programmer.)

There is no stability in this world. Who is to say what meaning there is in anything? Who is to foretell the flight of a word? It is a balloon that sails over tree-tops. To speak of knowledge is futile. All is experiment and adventure. We are forever mixing ourselves with unknown quantities. What is to come? I know not. But, as I put down my glass I remember; I am engaged to be married. I am to dine with my friends tonight. I am Bernard.

Pear Galettes with Spelt Crusts
If you like it, save it!
Save and organize all of the stuff you love in one place.Got it!
If you like something…
Click the heart, it's called favoriting. Favorite the stuff you like.Got it!
Author Notes: I like to think of galettes as casual pies -- "Oh, these? I just threw them together," kind of pies. They are much less fussy than their double-crusted cousins, and there is no futzy crust-crimping for the folks who find that part of pie making frustrating. They are supposed to look rustic and imperfect, which means that you don't have to worry if the fruit juices leak a bit or the crust looks rough and bumpy. These little "flaws" just add to the charm of these rustic tarts. —Yossy Arefi
Makes: 8 small tarts
For the spelt crust:
ounces spelt flour
ounces all-purpose flour
teaspoon salt
ounces unsalted butter
6 to 8
tablespoons ice water
tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- Whisk the flours and salt together in a large bowl, cut the butter into 1/2-inch cubes, and add the apple cider vinegar to 8 tablespoons of water in a measuring cup.
- Working quickly, toss the butter with the flour mixture to coat, then use your fingers or the palms of your hands to squeeze each cube of butter into a flat sheet. Keep tossing the butter in the flour as you go. The idea is to create flat shards of butter that are about the size of a lima bean.
- Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and add in about 6 tablespoons of the icy cold water. Use a gentle hand or a wooden spoon to stir the water into the flour until just combined. If the dough seems very dry, add more water a couple of teaspoons at a time. You have added enough water when you can pick up a handful of the dough and squeeze it together without it falling apart. Press the dough together, then split it in half, form it into discs, and wrap each disc in plastic wrap. Chill the dough for at least one hour before using, or overnight.
For the pears:
medium pears, ripe but still firm
tablespoons sugar
teaspoon lemon zest
tablespoons lemon juice
vanilla bean, seeds scraped
teaspoon cinnamon
teaspoon ginger
pinch salt
cup apricot jam
egg, for egg wash
tablespoons coarse sugar, to finish
- Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Peel, core, and thinly slice the pears. Toss the pear slices with the sugar, lemon zest, lemon juice, vanilla bean seeds, spices, and salt.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out one piece of the pie dough into a roughly 12-inch circle about 1/8-inch thick. Use a knife or pastry wheel to cut the dough into quarters. Transfer the dough to one of the prepared baking sheets. Spread one tablespoon of jam onto each dough quarter, leaving a 1/2-inch border around the edges. Arrange a handful of the pear slices over the top in a decorative pattern. Use about 1/2 of a pear per tart.
- Fold the edges of the dough over the pears and press gently to seal the dough together. Put the baking sheet in the freezer and repeat with the other round of dough. Place that baking sheet in the freezer, too. Freeze the tarts for 25 minutes, or until very firm.
- While the tarts are chilling, preheat the oven to 425º F and whisk the egg in a small dish.
- When you are ready to bake, brush the edges of each tart with egg wash and sprinkle with sugar. Bake the tarts, rotating the pans halfway through until they are deep golden brown and crisp, 30 to 40 minutes. Cool slightly and serve warm with vanilla ice cream.

I am about to pull the trigger on a 2013 Santa Cruz Superlight 29. The Superlight comes with Avid Elixer 1 brakes. (Not sure if these come with 2012 Elixers or 2013). My old ride, a 2009 model 29er has BB7 brakes, but the wheels are upgraded. So, I want to swap out the new wheels on the Superlight with the wheels from my old rig.
Are the rotors compatible with the other manufacturer? That's the key question.
Can I slide the wheel in or will i have to swap the rotors to the other wheels?
A possible problem: I don't know if what rotor mounting system is used with the Superlight. My old rig uses a centerlock on the rear and the front uses a 6 hole.

What Are Your All-Time Favorite xoVain Articles?
It's gonna get sappy up in here.
The good news is that I am still taking showers! I've been depressed. Don't worry; it's almost over. And I know you're sick of reading the same thing every day. God knows I'm sick of writing it.
I'm going to visit my grandma on Thursday. She cures everything! I have never not returned from my grandmother's (in Charlottesville) not completely transformed and ready to live and work again. I'm just like Lady Gaga when she was a cokehead, except I don't do coke (well, not habitually), and the grandma solution was my story first. Reading about Lady Gaga's version of it in Vanity Fair was actually very confusing for me. I was probably dusted, and so I was all, Did she steal that from me?
Anyway. Back to my shower.
The first thing to go in a real depression is grooming and hygiene, isn't it? It is. When I get sad I stop shaving my legs, plucking my eyebrows, washing my hair. I mean, I always have people popping over and then I have to do all of these things, but in the darkest recesses of my spoiled soul, I don't feel like it.
Whine whine whine! I'm so whiny. And really what I should have done with all of my sulky gloom and poor hygiene is gone downtown and occupied Wall Street, but of course I'm much too rich and selfish. No, I'm not that rich. Anyway, and now OWS is over! I can't believe I never went and checked it out!
Anyway. Again.
I've been using the most incredible-smelling stuff in the shower lately, and really that's all I have until I cheer the fuck up and start living an actual life again, which I think will happen in approximately three weeks, and generally I'm really good at predicting such things for myself. There's this guy I want to start maybe dating, so I'm trying to motivate myself. He's magazine-y! Won't THAT be exciting to read about! I never date people! But now I do. Aggressively.
Okay, so generally what I use on my hair is THIS:
Clairol Shimmer Lights Shampoo and Conditioner. This doesn't count as the Products That Smell Fantastic that I'm using right now. These products are pretty oldschool and are fragranced accordingly as such -- like old ladies, a little bit. Baby powder. Did I just contradict myself?
Anyway, I use these purple shampoos even though they don't smell ultra-amazing (and generally the only reason that I wash myself is to smell good, so) and even though they strip my hair sort of dry, because … they are the VERY best thing for blonde hair. I hate "buttery" blonde and "golden" blond. I hate anything warm and yellow near my face unless that thing is a dick, and that includes highlights.
Blond should be blond! Icy blond. Sharon Stone blond. Cool blond; icepick-you-after-I-fuck-you blond. And that's what these Clairol Shimmer Lights Shampoo and Conditioner products do. The important thing is to use them TOGETHER. You must use the shampoo AND the conditioner, and truth be told it's the conditioner that deposits the important good stuff -- the blondifying amazingness -- into your hair. My hair. All of our hair(s)! The conditioner is the key product, but it only really works best in tandem with the shampoo. Have I nailed that into your head enough yet?
So if you're wondering where all of these creepy photos of me in the shower came from:
...they are screen grabs from this music video of me in the shower that this dude Tommy filmed for Team Facelift, a now defunct white rap group made up of my best friend/#1 hunk/future xoJane columnist (when I get around to editing his stuff) Same and two other friends of mine, Ginger Ale and the Fat Jew. You can watch it here and see what my life looks like. Obviously that's my apartment.
Back to the shower! THE most amazing-smelling thing I've been using in there is LaVanila The Healthy Body Wash 2-in-1 Shower & Shave Pure Vanilla. It's a foamy body wash that you can use to shave your legs; it smells INCREDIBLE, like pure vanilla, and yet there are no parabens or any of that nonsense. The scent fills my whole apartment with delicious steamy vanilla-ness, and the scent stays on my skin all night no matter who I go home with (I wish):
You HAVE to try it. You know I'm a huge fan of this brand in general.
And while I'm body-washing and shaving my legs (usually with pink disposable Daisy razors, natch), I deep condition my hair for five minutes. I like Bumble and Bumble Deeep:
Or something like that. And I don't even squeeze all of the water out of my hair and everything and then glop it on like you're supposed to; I'm just so gangster that I do beauty things unconventionally, constantly. Jealous? Didn't think so.
Then I get out of the shower and lube up with some sort of beachy smelling body oil or whatever, most recently The Body Shop Spa Wisdom Polynesia Monoi Oil:
There is truly nothing better.
SO, that's my ridiculous in-shower routine at the moment. What's yours?

MADSION (WKOW) -- Some people want to go from "A" to "B", but Joan Houston Hall has been trying to reach "Z" for the last 30 years.
"Now, we've reached 'Z', but that's not the end," said Hall.
Since 1975, Hall has been the chief editor of the Dictionary of American Regional English.
"We knew this was very large country with very different regional dialects," said Hall.
It compiles what people say and where they say it.
"Things like squeaky cheese," said Hall. "You don't find that in many other places."
From Wisconsin words to stuff you don't hear outside of Pennsylvania.
"Doc? I've been riftin' and I have jags in my leaders," said Hall. "Jags are sharp pains and leaders are ligaments, particularly the ones in the neck."
And if someone came up to you and asked you if you wanted a wedgie, you might get offended, but if you were in West Chester County, New York, they are just asking if you want a sandwich.
"We know about the heroes and the hoagies and the subs," said Hall.
Researchers at UW-Madison have compiled more than 60,000 words, used from California to Tennessee, into a five volume dictionary. The last one was completed just this month.
"'Sl' to 'Z' is the one that is just coming out," said Hall.
But the last letter of the alphabet doesn't mark the end of Hall's life work.
"We used to say 'diesel' in the late 90s for something being pretty cool," said Colin Fitzpatrick, a native of Princeton, New Jersey.
That's because the English language is always changing and Hall says someone will be there to track it, from "A" to "Z" and all those words and phrases in between..
If you'd like a copy of the Dictionary of Regional American English, it's available through Harvard Press and many bookstores. Hall says the plan is to get the dictionary online by 2013.

A Florida woman is in jail on Tuesday after being charged with felony battery for allegedly kissing a police officer on the nose.
According to a police report obtained by The Smoking Gun, Manatee County Sheriff's Office deputies were called to the home of 62-year-old Peggy Hill on Saturday after a dispute with a neighbor about a fence between their properties.
The report claimed that Sgt. Randy Lamb was speaking to Hill when "she approached him and kissed him on the nose against his will."
"He stepped away from her, wiped off the saliva off from his nose, attempted to take her into custody and she started to struggle with him," the report said.
Hill explained to the officers that the neighbors had been arguing over chicken wire on the fence. She reportedly told police that she had "about 3 glasses of wine" before they arrived on the scene.
"She advised that Sgt. Lamb was being aggressive towards her," the charging officer wrote. "She could tell he was being aggressive by his body posture. She admitted that the thought just popped in her head to kiss him on the nose, so she kissed him on the nose. She advised that she was not being aggressive towards him."
The Manatee County Sheriff's Office's website indicated that Hill was being held lieu of $5,000 bond.

Put the potatoes into a large saucepan of salted boiling water and boil until cooked.
While the potatoes are cooking, preheat your oven to 400 degrees F. Cut each chicken thigh into 3 strips and place in a bowl. Rub the meat all over with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper, then toss.
Heat a large frying pan, big enough to hold all the chicken pieces snugly in 1 layer, and put the chicken into the pan, skin side down. If you don't have a pan that's big enough, feel free to cook the chicken in 2 batches. Toss and fry over a high heat for 10 minutes or so, until almost cooked, then remove with a slotted spoon to an ovenproof pan or dish.
Prick the tomatoes with a sharp knife. Place them in a bowl, cover with boiling water and leave for a minute or so. Drain and, when cool enough to handle, pinch off their skins. You don't have to, but by doing this they will become lovely and sweet when cooked, and their intense flavor will infuse the potatoes. By now the potatoes will be cooked. Drain them in a colander and lightly crush them by pushing down on them with your thumb.
Bash up most of the oregano leaves with a pinch of salt in a pestle and mortar, or a Flavor Shaker if you have one. Add 4 tablespoons of extra-virgin olive oil, a good splash of red wine vinegar and some pepper and give everything another bash. Add to the chicken with the potatoes, the tomatoes and the rest of the oregano leaves. Toss everything together carefully. Spread out in a single layer in an appropriately sized roasting pan, and bake for 40 minutes in the preheated oven until golden.
Lovely served with an arugula salad dressed with some lemon juice and extra-virgin olive oil, and a nice glass of white wine.

Erbanna Is the Line of Bags That Weed Smokers Don't Even Know How Badly They Need
Having an organized and stylish place to keep your weed that you can leave out in plain sight is an option any adult deserves.
Remember bebe? It was like Rampage's impossibly fancy older cousin from France who would smoke funny cigarettes with Wet Seal, wear lace unironically at Charlotte Russe's pool party and then convince you and Express that your best friend since middle school, Forever XXI, wasn't cool enough and that Hot Topic was screwing your boyfriend?
Man, bebe was my JAM back in the day. I remember it being the poor post graduate's answer to everything. Birthday party at that trendy new spot with the shelf life of a moth? Get thee to bebe. Grown up dinner with the 'rents of your latest hanger on? Bebe can do that. Need some work out gear with random rhinestones so you can really stand out at the gym? Girl, you know they got that at bebe.
Over the past decade all my bebe loot has gone the way of the charity donation box, buried deep underneath more subtle options from J. Crew I'm sure. Deep v-necks, asymmetrical anything, hems that hit mid thigh and hugged too tight just weren't on my grab and go list past 2005 (most likely because instead of the club a night out usually included my couch).
I hadn't set foot in a bebe store since I woke up from the spell of wearing thongs with jeans, so we're talking like years. That all changed yesterday when while on my way to Anne Taylor Loft (shut up!) I thought I spied a "summery" dress in the bebe store that might work for my St. Croix trip next month.
Ya'll know I need glasses right? But the crazy thing (besides the fact that I somehow manage to get around without being able to see shit) is that every single item of clothing in the store looked like this. Was I in the wrong bebe? Was this bebe bootleg or bebe bargain bin? Was I in a retail-themed very special episode of Sliders?
The real question that haunted me as I backed out of the store quietly, as if I was never there, was simple: Was it always like this? Is that what my fancy looked like for approximately 5 years in a row?
Obviously trends have changed, and thankfully so has my taste level. I remember the first time I walked into an Ann Taylor store to find a "good pair of slacks" as my mother calls them -- never just slacks, or a pair of pants, but "a good pair of slacks." I thought the place was were old ladies went for their boring life uniforms. Now I'm one of them. But come on, what's there NOT to love about a good sheath dress or some pants that cover your booty valley?
The other day I asked a friend, "I mean, is it just me or has Ann Taylor gotten waaaay more cute?" We looked at each other and laughed. Because it is just us. We've changed.

Guests Indulge in Spring's Sweetest Moments With Luxury Hotel's Cherry Blossom Package
Guests Indulge in Spring's Sweetest Moments With Luxury Hotel's Cherry Blossom Package
ARLINGTON, VA--(Marketwired - Mar 26, 2014) - After record winter weather, most of the country is ready for spring, including The Ritz-Carlton, Pentagon City. As the ice begins to thaw, this luxury hotel in Arlington located just steps from The Pentagon is unveiling the perfect antidote to the winter doldrums: The Cherry Blossom Package. Whether travelers are ready to book a much-needed spring break or simply enjoy a long weekend, the promotion promises to be one sweet escape.
Just as cherry blossoms symbolize new beginnings, the Cherry Blossom Package encourages guests to experience the Washington, D.C. area from a new perspective, specifically a gastronomic one. In addition to daily breakfast for two at the luxury hotel's fyve Restaurant Lounge, the package includes a variety of cherry-infused delicacies. The chefs behind this Arlington restaurant and lounge's winning menu of modern American fare, for example, have devised two specialty cocktails for the package that will be available in both the restaurant and the Club Lounge. The Sweet Cherry Pie swirls together Maker's Mark bourbon whiskey, cherry juice, amaretto, ginger brandy and Pepsi before receiving a final flourish of five maraschino cherries. The Cherry Burst, meanwhile, is composed of vodka, peach schnapps, a splash of cherry juice and lemonade.
The Washington, D.C. getaway package includes two complimentary Cherry Blossom cocktails once per stay, and the experience is enough to whet guests' appetites for more. In that case, they can book a table at fyve to try some of the menu's cherry inspired specials. The cherry-crusted, fried calamari served with Kirsch-citrus aioli, for example, ensures a sweet start to any meal, while the limited-time dessert -- a cherry-cordial pyramid topped with cherry-liqueur foam and cherry ice cream -- makes for happy endings.
Of course, if guests pass on dessert in the restaurant, they can still look forward to something sweet before bedtime. Visitors who book the package will receive a chocolate-cherry shortbread cookie and a cherry-spritz cookie as a special amenity.
Cherries are not the only sweet spot in this hotel package, however. Guests will also enjoy valet parking; premium, high-speed Internet access daily; a complimentary daily newspaper; and daily unlimited Metrorail travel passes for two. Such resources enable guests to capitalize on the Pentagon City hotel's location just 10 minutes away from Washington, D.C. where they can visit national landmarks and museums. The area's best shopping and dining, meanwhile, requires very little travel -- it is all within steps of this luxury hotel.
The Cherry Blossom Package is available on weekends between March 20 and April 20, 2014. Rooms are limited, and rates start at $259 per night. For more information, guests are invited to visit http://www.ritzcarlton.com/en/Properties/PentagonCity/Reservations/Packages/Detail/cherry_blossom_package.htm.
