Dear Ina,

Welcome to the L'Oreal USA Consumer Participation Program. We have a new Automated Research Communications System (ARCS). There are two numbers which you will need to use to participate in our studies pending qualification by web study recruitment. With these numbers we will be able to log in to see if you qualify for any studies. These two numbers are the Panelist ID and Password numbers shown above.

The ARCS system will require both of these numbers when you log in on a computer. Both these identifying numbers are very important and necessary, so please keep both these numbers handy.

You can log onto our website at anytime of the day or night and as often as you like. New studies are available weekly if not daily.

You can always call 732-680-5660 and some one will get back to you to address your questions or concerns.

Sarah Mclachlan Laws of Illusion


If you are a fan of SARAH MCLACHLAN, you will not be disappointed by the long awaiting release of her new compilation, LAWS OF ILLUSION.

The new recording is a bit slow out of the gate with “Awakenings” and “Illusions of Bliss” sounding a like the Sarah of old, but tracks like “Loving You Is Easy” and “Forgiveness” clearly demonstrate the life experiences that have influenced both the lyrics and the composition of her new music.

All things said LAWS OF ILLUSION is a pleasant gathering of thoughts put onto paper as meaningful lyrics and expressed through the beautiful music and voice of Sarah that we’ve all come to appreciate.

REVIEW: One Eskimo -- Ritz Theatre, Tampa, FL 5/19/10
London-based One Eskimo proved to be a pleasant surprise for concert goers at Tampa’s Ritz Theatre this week. Although the vast majority of the crowd was there to see headliner Michael Franti & Spearhead, One Eskimo caught the attention of many with their cleverly crafted original tunes highlighted by Beatles-esque three part harmonies and predominantly acoustic instrumentation, with some pre-recorded electronic loops reminiscent of Coldplay’s heavily layered sound.
The brainchild of singer/songwriter Kristian Leontiou, known in the UK for his critically promising solo efforts in 2004, One Eskimo came to fruition initially as a collaboration with drummer buddy Adam Falkner. With the addition of bassist Jamie Sefton, who adds some interesting horn treatments when the mood strikes, and guitarist Peter Rinaldi, the group was complete.

One Eskimo definitely does not disappoint when performing live, as they appear to be a tight cohesive unit, seamlessly shifting from one song to the next, the common denominator being a strong multi-layered foundation with live acoustic instrumentation. Utilizing some pre-recorded loops to replicate the intricate, dream-like electronic textures found on their self-titled debut album, notable songs during their opening set included "UFO," “Amazing,” "Hometime," and "Kandi," which features a catchy chorus sampled from Candi Staton's "He Called Me Baby." The band had the crowd dancin’, hootin’ and hollerin’ about halfway through their performance and appeared to make a positive impression on all in attendance. With proper exposure and continued creative innovation, One Eskimo has the potential to become a major musical force to be reckoned with in the not too distant future.

Harry Connick JR. Your Songs

Where do I begin to totally dis this album. Why did he bother making it? What a total disapointment. If this group of standards haven't been done a hundred times they haven't been done once. I am talking big yawn !!!! Frank Sinatra is probably turning over in his grave. My 70 year old Father doesn't even like it. Come on Harry, if you need to make a new album, make something new. I give this a BIG thumbs down!
