The Problem
Installing Adobe Flash Player on Mozilla Firefox. Originally I was trying to update it, now I can't get any form of it installed (as I uninstalled everything).
When downloading from the official site, it goes through the motions until it gets to a progress bar. The first bar says 'Initialising'. It stays at 0%, then jumps to 50%. Jumps back to 0% for a while, before jumping to maxing out the progress bar but with no percentage shown.
The text at the beginning of the progress bar then changes to 'Retrieving Install' at 0%. After a few moments, a pop up asks about update preferences - I chose 'automatic updates' and click 'ok'. The progress bar has now now flicked directly to 'Adobe Flash Player 11' at 0%, and italic small print has appeared underneath saying 'Downloading'. Progress jumps to 7%, jumps to 47% and immediately goes grey, with the small print showing 'Download Timeout'.
When downloading through the Firefox plugins manager, or following the popup banner, there is always a connection problem that states 'Firefox was unable to find the server' or something like that, on the screen in the wizard that should be asking me if I agree to the terms and conditions. It lets me click 'agree' to invisible terms, but beyond that it just fails.
My Attempts To Solve It
I'm at my wits end, I've tried everything I can think of. I saw a similar discussion that suggested a comprehensive clean install, going into that system 32 file and deleting 4 files that said flash in the title (basically) - did that, no avail. I've tried restarting firefox and my computer, I've tried the troubleshooting suggestions, I've tried downloading directly from Adobe, tried searching for manual Firefox plugins, looked through every forum Google suggests and have even changed the time of my clock to ignore daylight saving time on one suggestion. I've disabled anti virus software, I've checked my specs are high enough, I've checked the internet connection is fast enough, I've removed every trace I can find of earlier flash players, I've updated Windows, checked for Firefox updates. Can anyone think of anything else?
My Specs
Compaq laptop
Windows 7 32 bit
Mozilla Firefox 11
I also have Internet Explorer 7 installed, and I used to have Google Chrome, though I've uninstalled it through the control panel
Adobe plugin NOT installed (I'm unable to find it)
Shockwave Flash Player plugin is installed
Could you try installing using both of the 32-bit installers located here?
http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/installation-problems-flash-pla yer-windows.html#Install_in_a_firewall_proxy_server_environment
I created account to reply to this post because..I'm having the same damn problem.
I really need to know how to solve this are else I'm deleting Firfox and going back to Internet Explore.
I, too, have had the same problem for probably a month now. I have deinstalled and reinstalled at least two dozen times following Adobe's detailed instructions (some with Adobe technical assistance) but have yet to get Flash reliably working in either IE, firefox, or Google Chrome. I can watch youtube videos with HTML5, but not with Flash. The thin Flash installers consistently hang at 7% and report timeout at 49%. The offline installers always appear to work (progress bars happily move to 100% with no errors) but never do. Don't know what to try next. Would love to see someone publish a fix.
The offline installers can now be downloaded from http://helpx.adobe.com/content/help/en/flash-player/kb/installation-pr oblems-flash-player-windows.html#main-pars_header
Unfortunately, the offline installers don't fix the problem... (at least not mine -- might work fine for cerulean.hamster).
Can you post the contents of your FlashInstall.log files?
I'm also facing this same problem!
Did you try to download the installers from the link that Pat provided:
http://helpx.adobe.com/content/help/en/flash-player/kb/installation-pr oblems-flash-player-windows.html#main-pars_header
What's the error message that you get?
No_Flash_Windows_7: your replies are empty.
Oh man I just cant deal with this. So I have seen all of about a thousand people with this issue. I have it in IE, FF, Chrome. Well I should say me and about 100 others. So I am wondering if Adobe is thinkning maybe there is something wrong here? I mean for years I have had successful Flash updates installs, then suddenly 11.......not so much. I have done all the "fixes" and nada. So I am wondering if all these multi million dollar companies are trying to make this work? Whats FF without flash, and what flash witout FF. I mean there are millionsof people on FF. And a lot of us do not want to do other browsers.
I did a fresh install of FF16, and I have tried uninstall reinstall, I have done a ton of things with no results. Now here's my issue, My old flash was fine, until I instaled a flash MP3 player and next I know, I cant see it on my browsers. Need the newest version of Flash. But flash won't install. So I dont even know if my website is working right.
I am not a tech guy, I "know" Adobe products to use, but when ther's an issue like this Im lost. I need an answer. And it seems the answer is that one ofthe companies has to find the bug and squish it!
Till then, any new ideas?
AMD Phenom
Win Vista Premium I think 32 <---- I know I bought it the week they announced 7...wooooooo pee eye ess ess deed
NO flash now
Should I break down and get the WIN 8. God then nothing will work and I have to install it all over.... ugh again PISSED
Wish I could give better news but I ultimately gave up and deinstalled Flash from my system entirely. I tried using their deinstallers and installer and even had Adobe technical support remotely log into my machine to troubleshoot (effectively to re-download and re-execute every step to verify that I was indeed using the correct installers, deinstallers, and procedures). Still no working flashplayer, still no clue what's causing it to fail, still no path forward. With this many people experiencing similar problems you would think it a high priority to resolve... but that doesn't seem to be the case.
I had the same problem. Was able to download and install it at a friends place with DSL connection. I have wireless. At another time I successfully downloaded and installed through safe mode. Mind you, however, I still cannot watch videos that have Advertisement content. And that is since May when Adobe FP upgraded to 11. Before that FP worked just fine for me. If anyone has a solution to this problem, pl. post it. Thanks
No_Flash_Windows_7: we still don't know what the problem is you experiencing. It would be best if you start your own topic and describe exactly what your problem is; this topic has become too convoluted with dozens of posters and different problems.
The same exact issue occurred on one of the workstation at work running 64-bit Windows 7 sp1. Tried everything I could think of, temp file cleaner, registry cleaners, manually deleting everything and anything with Adobe or Macromed in it (there was nothing Adobe related installed on the machine anyhow).
Possible cause: One of the last 2 actions. I installed Java 7 and bunch of Windows updates.
Problem: Unable to install neither Adobe Acrobat Reader nor Adobe Flash as mentioned above.
My workaround/solution: Created another user account with install (admin) privileges and boom, both Adobe Acrobat Reader and Flash installed as expected.
The same thing is happening to me except it didn't start with Firefox. I have a HP Pavilion dv6 laptop with windows 7 64-bit. I have Internet Explorer version 9.0.8112.16421, Mozilla Firefox version 17.0.1, and Google Chrome version 23.0.1271.95 m. I uninstalled Adobe Flash Player and Adobe Plugins after I got the same 'Download Timeout' message at 47% after I tried updating my Adobe Flash Player to version 11.5.502.110. I also have AVG Anti-Virus Free Edition 2012 and I checked the settings so I know thats not the issue. My only working browser is Google Chorme because it has Adobe Flash Player built in it already. I am currently running a full scan of my computer using Malwarebytes to see if there is malware or a virus causing this problem. I will reply to this if I figure out anything.
I am having the identical problem. I actually just did a complete wipe of my computer - reinstalled everything including adobe reader without problem - but NO SUCH LUCK WITH FLASH 11.6.602.108 - the odd thing is how identical the problem is - seems like it is going okay - then screen pops up asking about updates, say okay to that and then goes back to dowloading says at 7 percent, turns off and says 47 percent and timed out - there is no information anywhere as to what to do about this - I am at my wits end - has anyone found a solution and if so, please talk me through it slowly- I am not very computer savvy. Thank you.
Sorry you're having problems with the online installer. Please try installing from the appropriate stand alone Windows installers located here:
hi guys,
i was having the same problem as all of you. would go to update to adobe 11...it would download, go to 7%, then 47%, and say download timeout. tried uninstalling and reinstalling and all that other stuff. here is what i did to get it to successfully install. go to this link:
http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/installation-problems-flash-pla yer-windows.html#main-pars_header
then, under where it says Progress bar hangs during download / Unable to connect to server / Unable to download metafile click on either the IE link or other browsers link, depending on your browser you use, to manually download the adobe 11 file. it should be a file around 16 mb. then when you run that file it will ask you to close all browser windows and start installing. this is what finally worked for me. i was also trying everything i could think of but nothing would work until i did this. hope this helps you out

The Chelsea Under-21 side will play Middlesbrough for the fourth time this season this evening, when they kick-off at the Riverside at 7pm.
When the teams met at the same venue back in December, Dermot Drummy's side won 3-2 thanks to goals from Billy Clifford, Lewis Baker and Alex Davey. Boro, who had gone 3-0 behind, pulled two goals back by midway through the second half but Chelsea held on for a win.
At Brentford in September the visitors won 3-1 with Patrick Bamford the Chelsea scorer. Those games were before the Premier Under-21 league was reshuffled for Phase Two of the competition with results before Christmas placing Chelsea and Middlesbrough in the same group again.
At Stamford Bridge in January the result was again 3-2 in our favour, this time Chelsea coming back from a goal behind with two goals from Islam Feruz and Baker scoring a penalty.
Our Under-21s currently lie fourth in their table, one point and one place behind the north-east side.
Some of tonight's squad are likely to have been involved in the Under-19s' 4-1 victory over Juventus in the NextGen Series on Sunday.

Now more than ever, dads have become more involved with their children. A few weeks ago, one dad posted a picture on his blog and it got quite a reaction: Doyin Richards, brushing one daughter's hair while holding the other.
It went viral and people began talking about gender roles and what a "man" really is. Doyin's blog, "Daddy Doin Work" is about being a father and he was here to talk about that.

For some people, clothes are defined solely by their practical qualities. Coats keep us warm. Suits fulfil the criteria to look presentable in the office. Joggers and T-shirts are perfect for lounging around the house and – when the rare opportunity arises – we can don a pair of shorts to help us stay cool in the summer sun.
For others, however, we share an altogether different relationship with our clothes.
A fashionable one.
Fashion is word which strikes fear into the hearts of many. The image of 6ft models sashaying down Paris and Milan catwalks in bizarre, super-human creations such as those infamous 12-inch heels made famous by Lady Gaga. Hoards of image-conscious shoppers gathered in gigantic crowds outside high-street fashion stores like Topshop, desperate to get their hands on the new collection by Kate Moss. Or perhaps thinking about fashion brings up images of Gok Wan trying to wedge some poor female into an overly-fitted dress with a pair of too-high high heels in attempt to steer her away from a doomed life of unfashionable dressing.
However, such images are only clichés. For me, and I suspect a lot of other people as well, I see fashion as simply utilising clothing as a way in which to express myself. Clothes equal confidence. They make me feel better in my own skin. Put simply, nice clothes make me a happier person. Taking pride in your clothes doesn't mean you need to be a slave to the latest trend; I'm not forever throwing out old items just because they're not 'in season' anymore. When I find a piece that I love, I'll nearly always keep it (and wear it) for years to come.
In fact – and this might sound strange coming from someone who loves clothes – I don't even purchase that many new pieces each month. I prefer to make informed choices about what I want to purchase and build up a small but quality collection over a period of time. In this age of super-cheap high street stores and throwaway fashion, there's something refreshing in spending a little bit more money on a good quality pair of jeans that you love as opposed to three pairs of bargain ones. At least they'll last you more than a few months – and that's nothing to do with being a fashion snob, it just makes much more practical and economic sense.
If you don't want to spend a fortune on designer clothing, then if you walk a little further out of the town you're shopping in you're almost guaranteed to find a vintage store or charity shop crammed with gems. Whatever town you're in, there's bound to be one of these great little shops somewhere just bursting with an array of clothing. Many clothes shops charge the earth for special 'vintage' collections, so why not buy the real thing from a second-hand or vintage shop and save a pretty penny? Plus, you'll be doing your bit for charity.
In a small local charity shop I once found a beautiful real leather coat, the purchase price at the time was covered by a five pound note. I thought it was probably moderately expensive had I bought it new, so out of interest I looked up the retail price online. I was astounded when I realised just how much money a similar quality coat would have cost me to buy new had I not stumbled upon one by chance. Since then I've found countless designer brands hiding away in these brilliant little shops, from Dior to Chanel and Vivienne Westwood and Gucci.
You might think that the image of a little charity shop tucked away in a small town seems a world away from the stereotypical fashion 'world' I described at the start of this feature. But that's the beauty of fashion – it is what you make of it; whether you buy your collections at soon as they hit the rails in designer shops or whether you build a collection up slowly from vintage stores and charity shops.
If something as simple as that can give so much pleasure, surely it can only be a good thing!

MADE IN THE U.S.A! I can't say enough about these socket racks I just love them. I have 4 of them, one for metric one for metric deep one for standard and one for standard deep. Keeps all sockets in place even if I drop it. It has a hole in the top so I can attach it to my workbench. Well worth the money and great price for under $10! Lastly they are covered by Craftsmans Forever warranty! Talk about peice of mind.

These racks work reasonably well. I have had no issues with sockets falling off or anything deforming. The handles are nice if you need them but keep in mind that they will take up extra room in your toolbox vs. non-handle racks. These can easily be mounted to a wall or on a peg board for easy storage.

fits nicely in my husbands tool box that he carries for work everyday. this was my second time purchasing these, one for home and one for work. price is good and so is quality.

These are the most reasonably prices socket holders Sears sells. ***** sells similar ones, but they are more expensive than Sears, particularly if you can get them on sale. I've had a set for over 20 years, and bought these for my son's new tool set. I don't use them everyday, but they do the job well for occasoinal use. I'm able to fit 1/4" deep and short, and 3/8" & 1/2" short racks of sockets standing up in the drawers of my portable tool box. It makes for a nice compact way of holding many sockets. Many of the more expensive holders take up more room. The handles make it easy to carry them around while you are working on something. It doesn't get 5 stars because sometimes the sockets are a little hard to slip on/off, and over time some of the holders get to where they don't hold the sockets well. But you can always buy more of the slip on holders should you need them. If I had it to do over again, I'd get this set.

The Craftsman socket rack / rail is great for organizing those loose sockets. They are portable, and seem to be sturdy enough. I hope the clips (what you attach a socket to) are strong and hold up through many uses. They sell packs of replacement clips, but it is as cheap just to buy another two pack of the racks. The only issue I found was the 1/2" rail was too short for the set of 14 I wanted on it. But it is probably best have all the rails( 1/4, 3/8 & 1/2) the same length.

Original journalism from the Center's OpenSecrets Blog
- Bad News for Incumbents, Self-Financing Candidates in Most Expensive Midterm Election in U.S. HistoryNovember 4, 2010 10:25 AM
The priciest midterm election in U.S. history saw a Republican tide sweep numerous Democrats out of office, as voters anxious about the state of the economy ousted more House incumbents from office than any time since 1948. While several money-in-politics axioms held true, money was not a panacea for embattled politicians.
- Nalco, Company Behind Dispersants Used in Gulf of Mexico Oil Spill Clean Up, Ratchets Up Politicking in 2010October 27, 2010 6:00 AM
The Illinois-based company that manufactured the dispersants used by BP after the Deepwater Horizon spill in the Gulf of Mexico spent exponentially more on federal lobbying in the disaster's wake than it has historically.
- Candidates' Ties to Lobbyists Pose Obstacles in 2010 CampaignsOctober 4, 2010 5:26 PM
Dollars spent on lobbying are set to increase over all other years if spending remains on its current course. And in context of 2010 congressional campaigns, the top lobbyist-funded House and Senate candidates have received more than $9 million to fuel their campaigns.
- OpenSecrets Blog's PolitiQuizz: Who's Bought the Most Pork?September 15, 2010 5:16 PM
Within the electorate, much anti-establishment fervor comes from a belief that Congress spends too much money and government has grown too large. This week's PolitiQuizz deals with everyone's favorite political spending topic: Earmarks!
- Big Donors Ramp Up to Fight FCC Net Neutrality DecisionOctober 28, 2009 7:26 PM
The Federal Communications Commission's decision last week to begin developing open Internet regulation has left a few big-time political donors and lobbying forces in the telecom industry wondering whether their message got lost in transmission.
- Third Quarter Campaign Finance Reports Show Money Race Is OnOctober 16, 2009 5:50 PM
An initial Center for Responsive Politics analysis has found that sitting members of the U.S. House of Representatives raised $48.2 million from July 1 through Sept. 30, 2009, based on the 336 reports we have in. The mean amount these lawmakers raised was $143,640, and the median amount was $126,680.
- Capital Eye Opener: Friday, October 9October 9, 2009 10:00 AM
The de facto government of Honduras, established after a June 28th military coup, has turned to a more conventional method of fighting for power -- lobbying. According to a New York Times article published earlier this week, the Honduran government's campaign to win Washington's support has already cost at least $400,000.
- Herb Kohl's Message to Telecoms: Break it UpJuly 10, 2009 2:20 PM
At least one member of Congress -- Sen. Herb Kohl (D-Wis.) -- this week weighed in on whether telecom companies are violating anti-trust laws. Kohl sent a letter to various agencies asking them to investigate whether big wireless companies are engaged in anti-competitive practices. Unlike many other lawmakers, however, Kohl, does not rely on telecoms to fill his campaign coffers.
- Money and Votes Aligned in Congress's Last Debate Over Bank RegulationSeptember 23, 2008 11:43 AM
The last time Congress seriously debated how to regulate the financial industry, the result was legislation that allowed the nation's largest banks to get even larger and take risks that had been prohibited since the Great Depression. A look back at that debate, which was over the 1999 Financial Services Modernization Act, reveals that campaign contributions may have influenced the votes of politicians who, a decade later, are now grappling with the implosion of the giant banks they helped to foster.
- Lawmakers Keep Quiet on Journalist Shield LawAugust 5, 2008 3:34 PM
Here at the Center for Responsive Politics, we're used to demanding more disclosure and transparency from our lawmakers, but it's another story for lawmakers to demand greater disclosure from journalists. Senate Republicans, whose campaign contributions from the print industry are at the lowest they've been since 1989, have blocked debate on a law that would protect journalists from being forced to reveal confidential sources.
- Power Struggle: Energy Industries Open Up the Pipeline to DemocratsJuly 17, 2008 2:30 PM
President Bush's decision this week to lift the federal moratorium on offshore drilling defied the Democratic Party's long-held opposition to oil exploration along the U.S. coastline. But recently more Democrats are indicating that they might change their minds, leaving environmentalists wondering whether the lawmakers will stick to their ideological guns or be swayed by high gas prices and campaign contributions from big industries.

ONE of the principles that is taught in the Book of Mormon, and in modern teachings is that of, "liken all scriptures unto us, that it might be for our profit and learning." (1 Nephi 19:23). Ezra Taft Benson in April of 1984 tells us to: "We urge you to study the Book of Mormon as individuals and families and then to do as the prophet Nephi counseled: liken the scriptures to yourselves so that it will be for your profit and learning."

What beach activities are available on Jekyll Island?

I will be working in Albany for a few weeks. I would like to p[lay tennis while there. Is there a place to go (park or club) where I can meet potential players?
Is the Riverbend Motel a nice , clean place to stay ?
Where can we spend a day shopping? Are there any shopping malls, or areas with the bigger retail stores? What about nice store locations like beachy stores to spend a day and maybe grab lunch or just to visit in the evening.
I am planning a trip to Savannah, GA with a business partner for May 18-23, 2014. We will be doing some writing and would like to avoid staying in a large hotel. We would like to find a place that had at least 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. Are there any vacation rentals or Realtors for short term vacation rentals that you would recommend?
Is the Riverbend Motel a nice , clean place to stay ?
Coming to Savannah for 3 days in June.
Big foodies here but are more into local places to sample good traditional Southern cooking.
Doesn't have to be anything fancy, in fact, we prefer it not to be.
Not touristy but rather somewhere the locals eat.
Hoping to hear from some people living in the area or who frequent the area often and are familiar with our requisites.

Challenges in 2.4 GHz Wireless Audio Streaming
Based on the experiences accumulated during the development of a family of 2.4 GHz wireless audio streaming ICs, the paper presents challenges in providing high-quality, uninterrupted audio streaming in the 2.4 GHz ISM band. It discusses the impairments to expect in a dense indoor radio environment, gives an overview of the main interfering radio standards in the 2.4 GHz band that any such system must coexist with, and outlines methods and techniques that are essential in order to overcome these difficulties. To exemplify, some of the critical design choices that were made for the first device in the family are presented along with thoughts on possible future improvements.

Regardless of age, parents play an important role in their children's lives.
We peel away one layer after the next, our eyes tear up and it becomes harder and harder to see as we get closer to our innermost insecurities and fears.
Some Mountain Jews believe they are descendents of the Ten Lost Tribes and were exiled to Azerbaijan and Dagestan by Sancheriv.
Yom Tov is about spending time with your family. And while for some families the big once-in-a-lifetime experience is great, for others something low key is the way to go.
A fascinating glimpse into the rich complexity of medieval Jewish life and its contemporary relevance had intriguingly emerged.
Dear Dr. Yael:
My heart is breaking; my husband's friend has gotten divorced. While this type of situation is always sad, here I do believe it could have been avoided.
The plan's goal is to provide supportive housing to 200 individuals with disabilities by the year 2020.
Despite being one of the fastest-growing Jewish communities in the U.S. – the estimated Jewish population is 70-80,000 – Las Vegas has long been overlooked by much of the Torah world.
She was followed by the shadows of the Six Million, by the ever so subtle awareness of their vanished presence.
Pesach is so liberating (if you excuse the expression). It's the only time I can eat anywhere in the house, guilt free! Matzah in bed!
Now all the pain, fear and struggle were over and they were home. Yuli was safe and free, a hero returned to his land and people.
While it would seem from his question that he is being chuzpadik and dismissive, I wonder if its possible, if just maybe, he is a struggling, confused neshama who actually wants to come back to the fold.
I agree with the letter writer that a shadchan should respectfully and graciously accept a negative response to a shidduch offer.
What really makes one wonder about the affinity felt by certain Jews for Grant was the welcome mat he put out for some of the country's most pernicious anti-Semites.
With 2013 marking half a century since Kennedy's fateful limousine ride in Dallas, the current revels are exceeding the revisionist frenzies of years past, with a seemingly endless parade of books, articles and television specials designed to assure us that, despite everything that has come to light about him since his death, JFK was a great president, or at least a very good president who would have been great had his life not been so cruelly cut short.
As someone who for the past fifteen years has been writing a column that largely focuses on the news media, I've read what is no doubt an altogether unhealthy number of books on the subject. Most of them were instantly forgettable while some created a brief buzz but failed to pass the test of time. And then there were those select few that merited a permanent spot on the bookshelf.
George W. Bush has been getting some positive media coverage lately, with recent polls showing him at least as popular as his successor, Barack Obama, and a big new book about the Bush presidency by New York Times chief White House correspondent Peter Baker (Days of Fire, Doubleday) portraying Bush as a much more hands-on chief executive than his detractors ever imagined.
Readers who've stuck with the Monitor over the years will forgive this rerun of sorts, but as we approach the fortieth anniversary of the Yom Kippur War – and with the stench of presidential indecisiveness hanging so heavily over Washington these days – it seemed only appropriate to revisit Richard Nixon's role in enabling Israel to recover from the staggering setbacks it suffered in the first week of fighting.
Shakespeare had it right. The evil that men do indeed lives after them. Case in point: Nahum Goldmann, who served in a variety of Jewish and Zionist organizational leadership posts from the 1920s through the 1970s.
Oscar "Ossie" Schectman, who scored the first basket in the history of the league that evolved into the National Basketball Association, died last week at age 94.
It's certainly been a while, hasn't it? And yet it seems like the conversation was never really interrupted, as I've enjoyed, in the three and a half months since this column last appeared, many an interesting exchange, via e-mail and phone, with some very intelligent readers.

I read through ALL of your reviews before buying these earrings. Some of you had me worried about whether these were right for me. I read that they were "gaudy", "too big to look real", "the wrong size" and best of all, that they "looked fake" or that people would look at you oddly for the sin of wearing earrings. Um, I don't know where some of you live, but here in Washington, D.C., no one bats a Dior Show mascara'd eyelash my way. They're the exact same size/ct weight I've worn for years and as someone else pointed out, it's so nice to have a pretty alternative to wearing real, heirloom jewelry-- especially during a crime wave. Anyway. The earrings are beautiful. They are well-made. They sparkle prettily. The setting is my favorite part-- so unique and memorable. I would buy these again, in a second. I worried if they were worth the price (I can go to Filene's and get similar for way cheaper), but they are worth it. I am very happy with them. No one thinks they are fake. They are not the size of tangerines. They are wonderful. I hope I made someone else's search a little easier. If not, just remember this: THEY ARE FANTASTIC. BUY THEM.
I get so many compliments on these earrings, and the stares. The ladies in my neighborhood have been gossiping, figuring out where they came from. If they were a gift for my boyfriend or a secret holiday gift to myself. Even my classmates have asked me how I can afford such bling on a college student�s salary. Some things are just meant to be a secret. Side note, they are so easy to clean, a soft bristled toothbrush, some warm water and a little scrub...Makes these babies POP!!!
These earrings are absolutely gorgeous! I kept them on my wish list for almost a year because some of the other reviewers had commented that they were too large. I only wish that I had ordered them earlier because they are the perfect size and have the appearance of real diamonds.
Very nicely done studs, rather large ones. The metal parts are shiny and smooth, the stone is cleanly sparkling. Overall, they look quite real. However, if you typically are of modest means, the size alone will give them away as "fake". On other hand, if you could potentially afford about 3-4 carat of dimonds, they will easily pass as the real stuff. Recomment!
I am a jewelry snob. However, sometimes when I wear a scarf, an earring catches. I lost one of my diamond studs with jacket. So, I am replacing those (from O), but need a "fake pair" from time to time. These look more real than the real one I am replacing. The fire twinkles, even in dim light. The backs, however, could be tighter. I would advise trying different backs.
Love these I wear the to work ,and to kick around in very comfortable.
It looked like something a highschool girl would like. you can surely tell that they are CZ. I is ok for a student if you dont care if these get lost, but I would not recommend if you are wanting to wear for dressing up.
These earrings were just what I wanted. Love the size and especially the sparkle!
I can only wear earring with a gold post so these were perfect. They can be a bit big for someone who likes a smaller stone as it could look a bit fake. But that is not an issue for me. It was the fact that it was white gold plated that attracted me. They are really nice.
I think these earrings are so pretty! They have a lot of sparkle and the setting is really nice. I wish I could wear these all the time - but alas - the post is too thick for me. It is painful to put them in and they hurt my ears after a while - so I rarely wear them. If you have fairly large pierced ear holes then these would be great.

sex cord-stromal tumor and usually occurs in adults. Granulosa cell tumors of the ovary cause higher than normal levels of estrogen in a woman's body. The symptoms of this excess estrogen depend on the woman's menstrual status; the most common symptoms include early puberty for affected young girls, an increase in abdomen size or irregularities of menstrual cycles in premenopausal women, and abnormal uterine bleeding in postmenopausal women. The exact cause of granulosa cell tumors is unknown. Treatment consists of surgery to remove the tumor, and additional treatments may also be used depending on the extent of the tumor.[1]Granulosa cell tumor of the ovary is a rare type of ovarian cancer that accounts for approximately 2% of all ovarian tumors.

I know I wrote this same thing in the winter with snow… but REALLY. I think I deserve to whine a little bit. Probably you do too. Probably more than I.
It hasn't rained yet today so I'm grateful. It hasn't been sunny, mind you.
The weather forecast has thunderstorms in it for a week straight. Nothing new.
But I'm glad the world didn't come to an end yesterday

You know that the times they are a changing, and not for the good, when you start seeing articles advising baby boomers on what exercises they should be doing so they can drive.
Not walk. Not run. Drive a car.
Have we come to this?
Have our bodies abandoned us to the point where we need to embark on a workout program just so we can sit and steer?
Sure, back in the day when cars were built of heavy metal and you had to provide your own power steering, it was not uncommon for those who were not in peak physical condition to experience muscle fatigue and shortness of breath trying to parallel park. But nowadays, with plastic vehicles and finger-tip turning, the car does all the work.
The problem, apparently, is not one of strength as much as range of motion. You need to be able to swivel. You need to be able to turn your head far enough to check the blind spot when you are on the highway and look over your shoulder when you are backing up.
Yeah, yeah, I know the fancy backup cameras are designed to take care of this, but personally I don't trust them. I don't feel comfortable looking forward when my car is moving backward. And if you are anywhere in my general area, you shouldn't feel comfortable either.
For one thing, the backup screen is hard to see in bright sunlight. And then there are all those different color lines that are supposed to let you know how close you are to something. Sorry, but whenever I rely strictly on the lines I always end up hitting something I shouldn't have hit for another five feet or so.
Besides doing range of motion it is also suggested older drivers do some strength exercising so they can do things like step on the brakes (this is pathetic), as well as flexibility training, which will be helpful for getting in and out of the car.
Just how much flexibility work does a person need? I think, it can be tied directly to how much noise they make trying to get their seat out of the seat.
Good rule of thumb here: If people in the vicinity often come over and ask if you are all right when you are exiting the car, you should probably be hitting the gym five days a week.
