What?s your favorite part about your job?
My favorite part about my job is seeing clients happy with a tan because it makes them happy about themselves.
When and how did you first develop a passion for your work?
I used to get airbrush tans, and I was always happy with the way it looked. It is also healthy for the skin, unlike tanning beds, which can cause cancer.
Is there anything else you want to add that we didn't cover?
We have certified male and female technicians to ensure everyone's comfort.
The artists at Dazzlin' Dezignz Salon & Spa are used to working on small canvases. They expertly decorate clients' nails with peacock prints, neon art-deco designs, and replicas of the Sistine Chapel ceiling. A crackling fireplace provides all the background music needed for a relaxing pedicure, held in one of the spa?s private rooms. In other rooms, clients relax during massages and hair-extension applications.
Indulge into Bliss Day Spa helps clients unwind with soothing services, such as strawberry facials and hot-stone massages. The beauty pros also exfoliate skin with kinetic dermabrasion treatments and body scrubs. Additionally, waxing services remove unwanted hair from faces.
For Body Beautiful's team of cosmetic experts, it?s not enough to simply treat patients? skin, veins, or cellulite. The med-spa?s staff is also focused on helping patients understand the issues they?re facing and how they can be treated most effectively, which is why all patients begin their relationship with the spa with a personal consultation. Only then does Body Beautiful draw on its arsenal of high-tech services, including treatments that include diode-laser hair removal, tattoo removal, and fractional skin resurfacing and rejuvenation designed to minimize skin irritation. The team also uses lasers?along with peels, ultrasound facials, microdermabrasion, and other approaches?to combat acne and spider veins, and its laser toenail fungus removal helps prepare feet for warm-weather footwear. To complement its other technological techniques, Body Beautiful also offers body-contouring wraps, which rely on a mixture of radio frequency, infrared light, fillers and Botox, and teeth whitening.
At Sewickley Med Spa, highly trained medical professionals help patients to reclaim or maintain their youthful appearance with advanced aesthetic treatments. Dr. Thomas Michael has more than 25 years of experience and training in aesthetic medicine and currently serves as the medical director of Heritage Valley WoundCare. He worked for many years in the areas of hyperbaric oxygen therapy and emergency medicine, and he can therefore sing in perfect harmony with an ambulance siren.
Together with registered nurse and cosmetic-dermatology specialist Michele Altobello, Dr. Michael provides complimentary consultations for medical-grade skincare services including chemical peels, Botox, Dysport, and dermal fillers. The clinical team also enhances natural beauty with permanent makeup and addresses spider veins with sclerotherapy. The reception area of the private, discreet office is decorated with soothing violet tones and a potted orchid.
The multitalented team at Brodhead Spa performs treatments that are as relaxing as the fuss-free environment they're performed in. Guests cradle a warm mug of flavored coffee or specialty tea in the Paul Mitchell salon area as they watch a stylist mix custom hues at the color bar. As they relax back for a shampoo, awapuhi treatment, patrons can rest their eyes or fix them on a globe-like chandelier bursting with designs that resemble snowflakes or the permanent sparkle emanating from an anchorman's smile.
In the adjacent nail room, cream-colored pedicure chairs pop against a deep blue accent wall, setting a tranquil mood as feet are nourished with ingredients such as fragrant Moroccan rose oil or skin-softening cocoa butter. Plush white robes await guests retreating to private treatments rooms where male and female therapists are available to provide Swedish or hot-stone massages.

UCSD researchers describe the inflammatory mechanism of sunburn
The biological mechanism of sunburn – the reddish, painful, protective immune response from ultraviolet (UV) radiation – is a consequence of RNA damage to skin cells, report researchers at the University of California, San Diego School of Medicine and elsewhere in the July 8, 2012 Advance Online Publication of Nature Medicine. The findings open the way to perhaps eventually blocking the inflammatory process, the scientists said, and have implications for a range of medical conditions and treatments. The University of California, San Diego is home to the Moores Comprehensive Cancer Center.

Among the research institutions NCI funds across the United States, it currently designates 66 as Cancer Centers. Largely based in research universities, these facilities are home to many of the NCI-supported scientists who conduct a wide range of intense, laboratory research into cancer's origins and development. The Cancer Centers Program also focuses on trans-disciplinary research, including population science and clinical research. The centers' research results are often at the forefront of studies in the cancer field.

2010 International Boxing Hall of Fame inductees
CANASTOTA, N.Y. A look at the 13 people to be inducted Sunday into the International Boxing Hall of Fame:
JUNG-KOO CHANG - Known as the "Korean Hawk" for his relentless fighting style, Chang was born Feb. 4, 1963, in Pusan, South Korea, and turned professional in November 1980 at age 17. He won his first 18 bouts before losing a split decision in 1982 to Hilario Zapata for the WBC flyweight title, then knocked him out in the third round of a rematch six months later. Chang made 15 successful title defenses.
DANNY LOPEZ - Lopez was a hard-hitting featherweight who earned a reputation as one of the most crowd-pleasing fighters of all time. Born July 6, 1952, in Fort Duchesne, Utah, Lopez compiled a 40-7 amateur record. He turned pro in 1971 and posted 23 straight wins before losing in a ninth-round knockout to Bobby Chacon in 1974. Lopez rebounded with wins over Chucho Castillo, Ruben Olivares, Sean O'Grady and Art Hafey before beating Davey Kotey in 1976 in a 15-round decision for the WBC featherweight championship in Kotey's homeland of Ghana. A string of eight successful title defenses followed before Salvador Sanchez knocked him out twice in 1980, ending his career.
LLOYD MARSHALL - Born June 4, 1914, in Georgia and raised in Cleveland. He won Golden Gloves titles in 1934-35, relocated to the West Coast and turned pro in 1937. In one of his finest bouts, he scored eight knockdowns en route to an eighth-round knockout over Ezzard Charles. Marshall had an impressive string of victories in 1944, defeating Nate Bolden, Jake LaMotta, Holman Williams and Joey Maxim. Died Aug. 11, 1997 in Sacramento.
YOUNG CORBETT II - Born William H. Rothwell on Oct. 4, 1880, in Denver and turned pro in 1896. A win over George Dixon set up a world featherweight title bid against Terry McGovern in Hartford, Conn. on Nov. 28, 1901. Corbett, who was known for frustrating opponents with insults, entered McGovern's dressing room to intimidate the champion. The ploy infuriated McGovern and the two went toe to toe. After two vicious rounds, Corbett scored a knockout and also stopped McGovern in a rematch. They met a third time in 1906 and the fight ended in a no-decision. Corbett died April 10, 1927 in Denver.
ROCKY KANSAS - Born Rocco Tozzo on April 21, 1895, in Buffalo, N.Y., a former newsboy, he turned professional with a new name in 1911 when the ring announcer mistakenly introduced him as Rocky Kansas. Known as "Little Hercules," the 5-foot-2 Kansas was a powerful brawler. One of the top lightweights of his era, Kansas made his 160th bout memorable, defeating Buffalo's Jimmy Goodrich for the title in their hometown in 1925. Kansas died in 1954.
BILLY MISKE - Born William Arthur Miske on April 12, 1894, in St. Paul, Minn. Nicknamed the "St. Paul Thunderbolt," Miske began boxing as a middleweight in 1913. Competing in the "no-decision" era, he fought Hall of Famers Harry Greb, Tommy Gibbons, Jack Dillon, Battling Levinsky and Kid Norfolk. In 1918, Miske was diagnosed with a kidney ailment known as Bright's Disease but kept it a secret, even to his family. He fought the only title bout of his career in 1920 and was stopped in three rounds by Jack Dempsey. Despite his poor health, Miske persuaded his manager to secure one last bout so he could provide a final Christmas to his family. He knocked out Bill Brennan on Nov. 7, 1923, and died at age 29 on Jan. 1, 1924.

Hats on parade for Isabella Blow's final farewell
Actors, socialites and friends from the fashion industry all turned out yesterday to say their final farewells to fashion stylist Isabella Blow. There was a show of hats and elaborate fascinators in the crowd of 250 guests who attended Blow's funeral held at Gloucester Cathedral in Gloucestershire. Among the mourners were Sophie Dahl, Alexander McQueen, Tara Palmer Tomkinson and actor Rupert Everett who read a tribute to the style diva. Blow passed away last week after taking weedkiller, the third time she had allegedly tried to take her own life. Her funeral was indeed a glamorous affair but I'm sure she wouldn't have wanted it any other way.

Dallas Cowboys' receiver Dez Bryant didn't have a clean slate when he was drafted in the first round by the team. According to NFL.com, a scout has said that Bryant has the worst background he's ever seen. Reading about Bryant's background I'll agree with that statement. Dez Bryant was raised by a single, often absentee mother who spent 18 months in prison for selling crack cocaine. Dez Bryant grew up impoverished and without direction, which explains his "lack of life skills" and ignorance of basic adult responsibilities entering the NFL Recently there has been a lot of talks about character and background with the recent arrest of Aaron Hernandez who also had a shady character which caused him to fall in the draft. While early (we hope Bryant can stay out of trouble), Bryant has shown not everyone with a bad background with have problems in the NFL. Then again, just a month ago Hernandez was also thought to have moved away from his past. While a player's past could definitely be red flags for future problems. It will be the scouts of the teams to figure out which ones will end up being worth it. And when the players age is typically 22, it ends up being a guessing game. Need NFL Tickets? The post Dez Bryant had worst background prior to draft appeared first on Pro Football Zone.

Just days after OutKast member Andre 3000's mother passed away, pop singer Bruno Mars has lost his at the age of 55.
While details are still surfacing, Mars' mom reportedly died sometime Saturday (June 1).
Bernadette Hernandez — mother of Bruno Mars — died unexpectedly Saturday at the age of 55. Hernandez suffered a brain aneurysm. She passed away at the Queens Medical Center in Honolulu, Hawaii. Hernandez was a hula dancer and singer who immigrated from the Philippines and nurtured Mars' musical talents from a very young age. Mars was set to kick off a tour in the U.S. later this month. No word on whether the death will affect the concert schedule. (TMZ)
Some publications have reported on what caused Hernandez's death.
The mother of Grammy-winning pop star Bruno Mars has died in Hawaii. Bernadette Hernandez died Saturday of a brain aneurysm, according to a publicist for Mars' label, Atlantic Records, who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the person was not authorized to speak on the record. Hernandez was 55 years old. She died in Honolulu at Queens Medical Center; no other information was given. (People)
The 27-year-old singer reportedly shared a close-knit bond to his mother.
Bruno was extremely close to his mother, who was a mother of six children including Bruno. Their tight bond was evident in his music and also in life in general. After Bruno was nominated for seven Grammys in 2011, Bernadette could hardly contain her joy: "Bruno I am so so proud of you. I knew this was going to happen but not this extent," she said. "I still think of him as my baby and keep forgetting he is a man." (Hollywood Life)
Coincidentally, the news comes just days after Andre 3000 lost his mother.
Andre "3000" Benjamin's mother Sharon Benjamin-Hodo has passed away, a representative for the musician and actor confirms to Billboard. Benjamin-Hodo was the founder and guiding force of The Starlight Camp for underprivileged children, which she ran out of the New Morning Light Missionary Baptist Church in Conley, GA — the church of her husband, Pastor Robert Hodo. In lieu of flowers, continued support of The Starlight Camp is appreciated by the family, Benjamin's spokesperson notes. (Billboard)

While Global Footprint Network projects often target decision-makers at the national, sub-national, and city levels, this new pilot in India aims to give local villagers a more informed voice in shaping development in their communities. The project, titled "Sustainable Development Return on Investment: Empowering Communities and Measuring Investment Effectiveness," or SDRoI, is a partnership with International Development Enterprises-India, Gram Vikas (of India) and Fundación Escuela Nueva (of Colombia).
Pragyan Bharati (right), Global Footprint Network's India director, is leading the 18-month project. She holds a doctorate in sociology and is a social development specialist with experience in leading various water and sanitation projects with ONE DROP, UNICEF, and the government of Odisha's Ministry of Rural Development.
We asked Pragyan a few questions about the new project.Read Complete Article >

Robert Hoekman, Jr. recently joined us for a Virtual Seminar on Interaction Design Frameworks, called, Web Anatomy: Interaction Design with Frameworks. The concept is a new one, and Robert and I are exploring and introducing the concept in new book due out shortly. The seminar (which is still available) was well-received, and we asked Robert back to help us answer some audience questions we did not have time to discuss during the seminar.
I think we can all agree the most fun part of any design project is coming up with something nobody has ever thought to do before. These moments of innovation are exhilarating, getting the heart pumping and the adrenaline flowing. However, on most projects, they are few and far between. That's because, even in the most innovative projects, the […]
An interaction design framework is a collection of patterns that make up an entire subsystem of your design. In your project, you'll need to ensure you've got all the essential features along with those new, super-cool, hip capabilities that will dazzle your users. By using these interaction design frameworks, you'll have a ready kit of […]
When starting a new design project, whether it's a design-from-scratch or an upgrade beyond existing functionality, much of what we are about to do has been done before. How do you make sure you've got everything the user will expect? Even the most thought out design requirements (and most, unfortunately, aren't too well thought out) […]
This week Robert Hoekman, Jr joins us to discuss a new design process he's been developing called "Design Frameworks." Drawn loosely from the idea of the Frameworks that software developers use to more efficiently build software, design frameworks are an aid to assembling a design.
Planning documents for web app projects are often overlooked, despite their importance in the success of the product. James Box and Richard Rutter of Clearleft share their successful process of creating rough interactive prototypes for clients when creating web applications.
Dealing with real-life web app production isn't as glamorous as some aspects of design in the digital realm, but it is full of challenges and can honestly make or break a project. There are ways of truly optimizing certain aspects of the production so that you can create a product with consistent quality at a faster pace. To find out how, I turned to Nathan Curtis.

LEE COUNTY, Fla.- A 15-year-old Southwest Florida teenager is defying the odds. Matt Milligan, who has cerebral palsy, has not let his disability stand in his way.
Despite being born "blue, not breathing" as Milligan said, he's an active teen.
Milligan enjoys riding his bike with his brother.
His speech and fine motor skills have been affected, but they are not limiting.
When he was nine years old, his parents gave him an old 35 millimeter film camera.
"That really inspired me and I just fell in love with the whole thing," he said.
His passion for photography was born.
Milligan sees the beauty in things that others overlook.
"These trees here, people might pass that up," Milligan said while pointing to some old tree branches. "Those are just dead trees. I look at that and it's a potential black and white photo."
His disability creates some minor hurdles for him. His hands and arms often tremble.
He utilizes lenses with image stabilization and relies on his creativity to enhance his abilities.
"If i'm shaking quite a bit, I'll have my parents put their hands below my elbows," he said. "It's like a tripod."
In April, Milligan fulfilled a lifelong dream--the Make a Wish Organization sent him to National Geographic's headquarters in Washington D.C.
Milligan is also a published author and photographer.
He has written for Parent and Child Magazine and has his pictures published weekly in the Bonita Banner.

I can not find access to USTA rules regarding default. Question: an opponent in mixed doubles throws several tantrums during play. Throwing the racquet into the net, and then tossing his racquet over the fence. Later he throws his racquet again over my side of the court, causing my partner to duck to avoid being hit. Opponent was mad because his team was the supposed stronger team in the tournament and seeded. My team was not seeded but we were definitely not being beaten easily. With conduct like this....could our team have defaulted him for unsportsmanlike behavior?

Nyack Campus Community Remembers Ralph G. Ellenberger (1934-2014)
Beloved Nyack College Professor Emeritus, Ralph Gordon Ellenberger passed away on Tuesday, May 27, 2014. A true pillar of the campus community, his legacy as a man of integrity and compassion, is fondly remembered by an innumerable host of colleagues, friends, and former students.
After completing studies at The Missionary Training Institute, precursor of Nyack College, Dr. Ellenberger earned a BA at Wheaton College and an MA at the University of Chicago. He joined the Nyack College faculty in September 1973, where he served as department chair of Anthropology and Sociology. He retired in 1999.
Since retiring to Omaha in 1999, Ralph was active in the Dundee Presbyterian Church, sang in the choir, taught adult education, was a part of several Bible studies, served on the Session, shared teaching responsibilities with the pastors, was active in the Mariners group, and served on the Crescendo Concert Series Board. He enjoyed gardening, traveling, and spending time with his family. He particularly enjoyed returning to the Nyack Rockland campus for his 50th class reunion and kept in touch with many of his colleagues
Dr. Ellenberger is survived by wife, Dotty, who was a former Nyack College registrar. Their children who will also cherish his memory are :Laurie Rainoff (Brad), Jenny Ellenberger, and Brad Ellenberger (Holly); grandchildren: Emma and Olivia Rainoff, Allison and Meghan Ellenberger; brothers, Paul Ellenberger (Florine) and John Ellenberger (Helen); and a sister, Dorothy Emary.
Arrangements to celebrate his well-lived life are as follows:
The family will hold visitation hours on Sunday, June 1 from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. at Heafey-Heafey-Hoffmann-Dworak & Cutler Mortuary, 7805 West Center Road, Omaha, NE.
A memorial service will be held on Monday, June 2 at 11:00 a.m. at Dundee Presbyterian Church, 5312 Underwood Avenue, Omaha, Nebraska. A reception at the church will follow the memorial service. Internment will take place Monday, June 2 at 3:00 p.m. atWest Union Cemetery in Union, NE.
Gifts in memory and honor of Dr. Ellenberger can be directed to the Ralph G. Ellenberger Scholarship Fund at Nyack College, 1 South Blvd., Nyack, NY 10960.
The tremendous mentoring impact of Dr. Ellenberger on hundreds of Nyack students could not be more evident than one of his former students, Dr. David Turk, who today is Nyack/ATS vice president and provost. On the passing of his former professor, he said," The entire Nyack community, and all of those who were incredibly touched by Ralph's presence among us, sends its deepest sympathies and respect. Ralph was truly one of God's rare creations."

text: CBS and Nancy Cordes in Full Fraud Mode Print article Send a Tip by Ron Futrell 12 Aug 2012 post a comment The "Tiffany Network" is trying to sell that cheap cubic zirconia garbage. What else would you call journalism in which the biggest questions of the day go unasked in order to help the reportorial subject? Nancy Cordes shows up to fill-in on "Face The Nation" Sunday and she gets the first shot at Stephanie Cutter, Deputy Director for the Obama Campaign. Perhaps you've heard the story about how Stef got caught lying last week about collusion between the Obama campaign and the Priorities USA SuperPAC. The networks have basically ignored this story, but it's been mentioned on the web a few times. What a great opportunity for a reporter. The facts are all out there; the rest is easy. You connect with your inner Edward R. Murrow, and you ask Cutter why she lied about not knowing details of the Joe Soptic, the man who said Romney killed his wife of cancer. There has never been better evidence showing illegal collusion between a campaign and a SuperPAC. Roll the tape, ask the questions. A reporter's dream. Darn. Nancy must've forgotten to ask that question. Perhaps she ran out of time. It's been a crazy week, and there are a lot of things in her head. Maybe Cordes planned on asking Cutter about the collusion issue but the computer got the sound bites mixed up. It could happen. Maybe CBS hired that editor that got fired at NBC for botching the Zimmerman tape to perpetuate a racist template and he/she messed this up. It could happen. Maybe this was a gaffe. Or maybe, just maybe, Cordes is another liberal Obama hack. Nancy chose not to ask the question because Cutter has been busted and they didn't want to make their Dear Leader look bad on network TV. Perhaps Cordes even cut a deal with Cutter agreeing not to ask the "elephant in the room" question if she came on the show. Go figure. We know Cordes' political beliefs; as Larry O'Connor exposed, she tweets Obama talking points. Maybe, just maybe that has something to do with why Cutter was given a total pass. The Obama Campaign has to be laughing about how easy it is to "work" the Activist Old Media. It's no work at all. It's organic. Follow Ron Futrell on Twitter @RonFutrell

After being told by Central Amusement International to vacate on November 15, the Coney Island Eight got a letter from the landlords lawyer giving them until tomorrow, November 19, but Rubys (or Rubies, as it was apparently misspelled in the letter) aint going anywhere. In fact, a Facebook update indicates the bar will be open (yet again) this Saturday.
Attorney Marc Aronson tells us, All the landlord can do is bring them to court they cant simply go in and change the locks. Aronson says he hasnt filed suit and hasnt had any discussions with Zamperla/CAI, but will fight the case they could be bringing next week: Well be fighting this in the commercial landlord-tenant court and supreme court if necessary. But is he just buying more time during the off-season, or is there a chance these businesses will actually be open next year? If youre asking my opinion as to whether theyll be open next year, Aronson says, I think theyll be open. Knock on wood (not concrete).

James Holmes, the man accused of a shooting at a Colorado movie theater that left 12 people dead and dozens injured, appeared in court as lawyers discussed how to contact victims and alert them to $4 million in donations.
Holmes allegedly opened fire on the audience at a midnight screening of "The Dark Knight Rises" in Aurora on July 20, killing 12 and injuring at least 58. Holmes, with dyed orange hair and wearing handcuffs and a red prison uniform, sat today with his lawyers, Daniel King and Tamara Brady. He didn't address the court during the hearing in Centennial, Colorado.
Holmes is charged with 24 counts of first-degree murder and 116 counts of attempted murder. First-degree murder is punishable by death or life in prison under Colorado law.
Judge William Sylvester agreed to let the Arapahoe County district attorney's office ask victims whether they wished to have their contact information given to the Colorado Organization for Victim Assistance, which would then see whether they wanted financial assistance.
Stephen Zweck, a representative of the University of Colorado, where Holmes was a student, delivered 100 pages of educational records to the court. Sylvester scheduled a hearing for Aug. 23 to hear arguments on whether the documents can be fully reviewed by the judge and prosecutors.
Another hearing was set for Aug. 30 to discuss whether Holmes's correspondence with psychiatrist Lynne Fenton was privileged. Defense lawyers have said Holmes saw Fenton, medical director of the student mental health service at the University of Colorado Denver, according to court papers.
The case is People v. Holmes, 12-cr-01522, 18th Judicial District Court, Colorado (Centennial).

Property owners in the town of Oregon are going to have to dig extra deep into their pockets this holiday season.
"We're talking about a $47 million mistake that was made," said Brett Davis, town of Oregon resident.
Thanks to a department of revenue mistake, residents like Davis will have to pay hundreds of extra dollars in property taxes for 2006.
A mistake, that revenue department officials say was simple human error, that cannot be reversed.
"It was a keying error, made by a human, here at the Department of Revenue," said Jessica Iverson, department of revenue spokesperson.
Iverson says the mistake will cost each town of Oregon property owner about 500 dollars in 2006, but says they will get all that money back in the form of a discount in 2007.
Iverson says that decision is based on a state law that dictates how property owners are supposed to be compensated when a mistake is made.
"State statutes dictate specific remedies for errors such as this," said Iverson, "and the correction will be made the following tax year."
Which is where Brett Davis comes back into play.
Davis isn't just an Oregon resident, he's also a Republican state representative.
And as a result, is in the best position to change things for himself and his district.
"Oh absolutely," said Davis, "tomorrow morning at 8:30 I have a meeting with the legislative fiscal bureau to look at those very options to deal with this."
Davis says he'd like to see a change in the law, even if the current mistake can't be reversed.
But he says that won't do much to help people who are struggling with their property taxes right now.
"For seniors on a fixed income," said Davis, "working families right now that are buying their Christmas presents for their kids, it's a really big deal."

We – me, Chloe and Millie decided just today that we would blog our Easter craft sessions in case anyone else was stuck for ideas for craft to do with your kids. Our first craft was to make some Easter bonnets and seeing as we are surrounded by fields we decided that it be ok to use fresh flowers instead of using the usual paper, glitter and things we would normally use. We figured if we just took one or two flowers from each group of wild flowers it would be ok.
Here's Millie to tell you how we made the bonnets:
First we cut some wild flowers and got four different types of flowers and some fern.
Next we got wire and tied around the bonnet twice so that we weave the flowers into the wire.
After that we chopped the stalks so that they weren't too long and weaved the flowers onto the wire.
My Mummy helped us and showed us how to do because it was really tricky.
We we had weaved all the flowers around we put some decorations on top of the bonnets.
We stuck the leftover flowers on top with PVA glue and then tied a bow round the top made out of ribbon.
These are our finished hats.
My favourite was putting the decorations on the top of the hat. Mummy thinks these would look lovely in the middle of the table on Easter Sunday.

Good lotion
1 person found the following review helpful
Posted by niyuki-ti on Aug 30, 2012
Purchased at iHerb
One thing that I didn't like in this product is the strong scent of a coconut which disappears after a while. In other words, this is a good moisturizer with good ingridients and siutable even for a child skincare. Хороший увлажняющий лосьон. Единственное, что не понравился - это сильный запах кокоса. А так, очень позитивный состав, так что лоьсоном мажу и ребенка.
so good!!!

Light, easily absorbed lotion
Posted by supernova on Jan 08, 2014
Purchased at iHerb
I use this on my baby who has eczema. Because it's light, it's not ultra-moisturizing, but it works to soothe his flare-ups and cools down his angry red skin especially during hot summers. At night, I use a thicker, more moisturizing cream. Love the ingredients in this lotion - coconut oil works well for my baby's dry eczema skin. Easily absorbed, no oily film left behind. However, this needs to be re-applied after a few hours because the skin seems slightly dry after a while. Still, I would buy this again, as a soothing lotion during hot afternoons.
hidratante, pero olor de fondo desagradable
Posted by Shorspain on Jan 17, 2014
Purchased at iHerb
La compré pensando en su olor a coco, y aunque es cierto que huele, de fondo deja un olor bastante desagradable (probablemente la manteca de karité), sobre todo al mezclarse con el coco. Buena hidratación para niños, pero en piel madura y reseca, quizá quede un poco corta

R 297 000Bond Costs
Dana Bay, Mossel Bay
This prime 861m² stand is situated in the Nature Conservancy called Dana Bay.
This stand is the 2nd from the corner of a very quiet street.
The stand is situated on a flat piece of land, so no expensive building costs are necessary.
There is a sea view from street level, but it would be preferable to build a double storey house to fully appreciate the view.
Dana Bay is only a couple of minutes drive from Mossel Bay and very close to Pinnacle Point Golf Resort as well as the Mossel Bay Casino.
Whilst often disregarded simply as a suburb of Mossel Bay, Dana Bay is in fact a conservancy, set in the heart of the Cape Floral Kingdom, home to fine examples of coastal and limestone varieties of fynbos under threat from global warming. Limestone fynbos is rich in species and supports among the highest numbers of endemic ... species in the entire Cape floristic region.
Because of its conservancy status, bush buck, steenbok, mongooses and Cape francolins roam freely in Dana Bay; and the prolific bird life, which includes a colony of black oyster catchers and over 85 other bird species, adds to the tranquillity and beauty of the coastline and incredible views of beach and horizon.
The white sandy beach here stretches for miles and is largely undisturbed, inviting lengthy morning and afternoon strolls and sundowner picnics - sunsets are legendary on this part of the coast. Add to this Dana Bay's easy access to restaurants, museums, harbour and yachting facilities, water sports, and eco adventure opportunities, and the beachfront village becomes something more of an attraction.
George's Airport is an easy 20 minute drive, schools of up to 500 dolphins have been sighted along the coastline, and during whale-watching season, Southern Right Whales are a joy to behold.
The St Blaize hiking trail is a wonderful cliff walk - an easy 13.5 kilometres along seaside cliffs and through sections of fynbos - of which you can hike a part or do the walk in its entirety. It also provides ideal spots to sight whales in season.
Things to do in Dana Bay: In Dana Bay, some might say, there's not much to do, at all ... but if you follow my reasoning, adding your own seasoning, I'll show you there is much to do in Dana Bay ...
Let's start with the first reason why this is the place to stay: once here, one is really able to r-e-l-a-x, all day! Yes, one may wish to take up one's camera and hat and happily hunt that exquitely elusive flower for an hour, before returning from an active day to do that utmost important activity of Dana Bay which is to relax to the max! In Dana Bay, one may do whatever you wish, but always return to a wonderfully relaxed flower kingdom at your doorstep.
This 861m² stand in Dana Bay is your perfect opportunity to build the house of your dreams in this idyllic coastal town. Read More

When I Think About Angels Lyrics - LeAnn Rimes
Review The Song (1)
Why does the color of my coffee match your eyes
Why do I see you when this stranger passes by
I swear I hear you in the whisper of the wind
I feel you when the sun is dancing on my skin
And when it's raining you won't find me complaining cuz
When I think about rain I think about singin
When I think about singin it's a Heavenly Tune
When I think about Heaven then I think about Angels
When I think about Angels I think about you
The taste of sugar sure reminds me of your kiss
I like the way that they both linger on my lips
Kisses remind me of a field of butterflies
It must be the way my heart is fluttering inside
Beautiful distraction. You make every thought a chain reaction
Anywhere I go
Anything I do
Everything around me baby makes me think of you
Chorus x 3

Abu Muqawama: Lacking Options, Romney Keeps Silent on Afghanistan
Over the past several weeks, a series of articles have noted the absence of any discussion of the Afghanistan War in the U.S. presidential campaign. President Barack Obama might be avoiding the subject, but for better or worse, his policy is a matter of record. By contrast, GOP candidate Mitt Romney has yet to articulate an Afghanistan policy.
Of course, it shouldn't strike anyone as curious that the Romney campaign is as reluctant to talk about Afghanistan as the Obama administration. After all, the war is terribly unpopular. The administration has apparently determined the safest thing to do politically is to chart a course toward withdrawal and otherwise pretend the United States does not still have tens of thousands of soldiers and Marines fighting a determined enemy on a daily basis. For its part, the Romney campaign has decided that criticizing the administration for not showing enough resolve in its prosecution of the war, thereby implying that Romney would prolong or increase the U.S. commitment in Afghanistan, is too politically risky. As a result, Romney has largely remained silent on the issue. ...

Leslie Jordan is visiting the ladies of Wisteria Lane tonight when he guest stars on "Desperate Housewives" (9 p.m. Comcast cable 10).
The episode marks the first of a recurring role he will have on ABC's hit comedy/drama.
"I can't say a lot about it other than I play an art dealer who gets into cahoots with Teri Hatcher's character," the actor said in a phone interview. "I've got another episode of 'Desperate Housewives' airing Dec. 4."
Jordan is the Brainerd High School and University of Tennessee at Chattanooga graduate who won an Emmy Award for his recurring role as Beverley Leslie on "Will & Grace." He is the author of "My Trip Down the Pink Carpet," the autobiography on which his one-man show is based.
Jordan called taping Sunday night's episode "a lot of fun."
"I've known Marc Cherry since he was Dixie Carter's assistant. I knew Teri Hatcher from when I was on 'Lois & Clark' years ago. I knew Vanessa Williams from 'Ugly Betty.'"
Cherry created the Sunday night series and is its executive producer. At its peak, "Desperate Housewives" was television's fourth most-watched program, drawing weekly audiences of 23 million. Over seven seasons its ratings have dropped to 11.8 million viewers. ABC has announced that this will be its last season.
