I too felt like a bit of an idiot parting with my hard earned cash for a can of water, but I was quite excited to try it. I sprayed it on freshly cleaned skin, hoping it would reduce some redness from my malar rash. No good - in fact, it made it itch slightly.
However, this is amazing for setting my makeup (EL Double Wear). A spritz or two of this leaves my make up smooth, does seem to help set it and keep it fresher looking for at least half a day, and best of all removes that mask-like feeling that can come from wearing heavier foundation. Feels lovely and refreshing too! Ordinary tap water achieved none of this for me.
The first time I used it I pretty much ruined my makeup by just spraying it on - the trick is to only half press the nozzle down. You'll get a fine, even mist. I do around four or five of my 'half sprays' each morning, so the larger can lasts a good few months. The problem is even though it's a good product, I can't get the thought 'it's just water' out of my head...

I'm not sure why or how this works (need to check the website again for that) but it does. I was having bad reaction to Hada Labo arbutin toner (the blue one) with tiny red spots all over my face that weren't pimples. Enter this totally inconspicuous and seemingly useless water spray bought on a complete whim. Used it twice/three times a day. My skin was clear and calm in three days. I don't really wear makeup that much anymore these days except for mascara and lipstick, so I'm not sure if this helps to set makeup. This works better than Evian, though, and certainly better than putting regular tap water into a portable bottle spray, because I tried that. Did not work.

I bought the smallest size, 30ml I think, which is perfect after sports to calm down a stinging face. It seemed pointless at first but I actually think it's a very good, cheap and useful product for calming down the skin.

Living near the french border, I have no trouble getting french pharmacy brands. I can order them easily online or drive to a french pharmacy nearby.
The thermal water comes in different sizes: 30 ml, 50 ml, 150 ml or 300 ml. I don´t know, if these sizes are available outside france or germany.
I own them in two sizes, one smaller 50 ml for travelling and a big 300 ml for my cleansing routine. I paid about 2 Euros for a small bottle and 6 Euros for a big bottle.
Where I live, the water is very hard and harsh. The thermal water eases my skin and counteracts the effects of the hard water.
This thermal water is multifunctional and works in every season.
In summertime, I use it to calm down my skin and give it a refreshing spritz. Although I use high-protection sunscreen on my face, the skin can feel exhausted and warm when I spend a whole day outside.
In wintertime, it soothes my poor skin, when the difference in the temperature outside and inside gets too much for my skin.
In spring and autumn, it helps my skin to adjust in the change of the weather.
It´s part of my skincare-routine too. After cleansing my face, I spritz it on and let it dry. Afterwards, I apply toner, moisturizer and sunscreen. It calms my skin like nothing else.
You can use it to calm down or refresh your skin, whenever you need it: during a flight, on the beach, in the office.
Needless to say, that I have sensitive skin and I love this thermal water.
Especially people with sensitive skin or people, who live in a city with very hard water should try a thermal water.
Highly recommended.
Update 05/08/2012:
I found a wonderful new way to use this for me. I have too sensitive skin to do a real double cleansing in the evening , but I still searched for a way to take the major part of my make-up away before the actual cleansing. And here´s my routine: I spitz my face generously with thermal water and spritz a cotton pad with thermal water until it´s wet. Then I move the wet cotton pad over my face and it takes away a lot of my make-up. I´m so glad, I can finally do a gentle double-cleansing and I feel better removing the make-up before I cleanse my skin. If you have ueber-sensitive skin, the thermal water soothes your skin while taking away your make-up.
Update 28/04/2012:
I found this incredible video from intothegloss with famous facialist Isabelle Bellis showing, how to use thermal water (she shows it with LRP thermal water) during the cleansing process. Worth trying and worked very well for my skin. Here´s the link: http://intothegloss.com/2013/04/how-to-wash-your-face-part-1-one-isabelle-bellis-cleansing/
She also suggested in an interview not cleanse your skin in the morning with an actual cleanser, but spray it with thermal water, wipe or dab the thermal water off and follow with a mild toner. This is also very good in areas with hard tap water. For people like me with ueber-sensitive skin, this is just awesome and I´d recommend trying these techniques.

Inexplicably breaks me out. Feels soothing on sunburns and freshly-shaved legs, but I wouldn't repurchase for that purpose.

More moisturizing than normal water, but did nothing on my rosacea or my sensitive skin. Love the spray method. I put it in fridge for extra freshness.
i will buy again only if on sale

Love this stuff. I can't live without it. It is perfect for setting makeup, spraying over the skin once you have finished your evening skin routine for locking in moisture, and also works well on the body. It's also such a fantastic price considering the quality of the product. A bottle lasts be a good few months, and I use it several times ever day. My favorite way to use this is after I've come out of the shower, toned and moisturized, because it locks in all the moisture for my dry skin. It also works really well with a stippling brush if you over do your foundation, and takes away that "caked" look.

To be fair for the question would I buy this product again, I chose Yes, but in fact, I'm not sure.
Never bought into all that water spray hype. So this is the first time I'm using something like this. And that's cos I got it in my cleanace trial kit. So far, can't review on it as I'm not sure if it makes a difference to the rest of the range if I use it or not.
However based on the good reviews here, I will finish my sample and decide if I will repurchase. For now, I use it as a toner after my gel cleanser and before cleanace K
It may or may not be this product but I was told that some ppl may be allergic to the mineral content of the water. I never associated my breakouts to this particular item when I started the whole avene skincare regime. But after I cut out this product, my skin feels calmer & less irritated. Although the breakouts are still coming so I'm still searching for an answer :(.

so, you all want to know, does it work?
this is not your top water stuff. its "soft water" enriched with minerals so it gives that hydrating effect.

How long do hibiscus seeds last in a bed?
About 6-8 years ago I bought 2 hardy deciduous hibiscus plants in pots from a local nursery, one pink flowered, the other red flowered. Within 2 seasons after planting them they'd become enormous, with between 22-30 stems per plant. There were so many and they were so heavy that the outermost stems would fall over, touch the ground, then grow straight upward from there.
They got lots of sun, so they didn't just grow a few flowers on the tops of each stem, they also produced lots of lateral branches from each stem, and there would be at least 5-8 flowers on each lateral branch as well. The flowers are huge at 10-12" diameter. So they produced amazing numbers of flowers for probably 6 weeks straight! But they also start blooming a little later than most varieties.
Anyway, these plants were so thick and wide and heavy that they grew very wide(8-10 feet diameter each), so they were falling into the sidewalks and driveway, and even with much staking and tying it was too much. So I dug both plants up and attempted transplanting, but as I dug them up I noticed how their roots grew about 2 inches below ground and spread out in all directions across the bed! I couldn't prevent severing these long thick roots, and they died later after transplanting.
But, then about 2 years later we start seeing new hibiscus seedlings popping up in the original bed, and in other nearby beds, so I finally decided to let 2 of them grow in 2 different beds, away from the walkways and driveway. It's been 2 seasons now that these 2 newer plants have been growing, and undoubtedly dropping hundreds of seeds everywhere, but I don't see any new hibiscus seedlings popping up yet.
Does it always take a few years for the seeds to finally grow, and how long will they remain viable sitting out in the flower beds, covered by new mulch each season? Also, anyone know the name of this variety that grows this large with 10-12" wide flowers?
Thanks in advance.
Hardy hibiscus. That is what you planted.
Yes, they can get real big, and proper pruning is usually done if you plant them in an area that is close.
No, they can seed and thier seeds usually germinate the following season, unless they can't for some reason.
You can keep the seeds, I had some for 6 years, and they germinated.
I was curious, are the plants that grew in the same bed the same color as the original plants you had there?
Sometimes they will grow back from roots, even years later. I was just wondering if there was a change it was the same plant.
Let me tell you, they are extremely hardy plants. It's amazing how they can grow.
I'm glad they grew back for you, either seed or roots, they are wonderful plants.
Hope you enjoy them.
Well, I will start another thread sime time soon and include pictures of the original 2 hibiscus once they got full sized about 2 years after planting, and what they look like now. The 3 that I am growing now are the same color flowers as the original plants, even though these came from seeds off of the old plants and were pollinated undoubtedly as a cross between the reds and pink flowers. They arent quite blooming yet, and that makes them at least 2-3 weeks later than many hardy varieties, but they make up for it with LOTS of huge blooms and a long bloom time.
At this point they are on their 3rd season since I replanted them as volunteers 2 years ago. They were popping up all over different beds for at least 2 seasons, maybe 3. I didnt actually notice volunteers popping up until about 2 seasons after the original hibiscus plants were removed(because they were way too large and spread out much more than just about any hibiscus plants I had previously seen). Those original plants didnt survive the transplant due to too many roots being severed, because they grew outwards many feet in all directions, and it wasnt prudent to try and dig up a 5' to 8' root ball just to get the outward growing roots in one piece!
I have cut back several stems on the largest plant, and yet there are still at least 12 or more very large, thick, long stems left, that are growing outwards in all directions. I had to practically remove an entire side just to prevent them from crushing the 5' Zinnias behind them.
Thats another aspect to this story: The Burpee zinnia seeds I buy(Giant flower mix) also grow much larger than advertised, and this year they are getting even taller than last year, as I saw a couple flowers above my head by at least 8" just 3 days ago, and the rest are at least 4.5 to 5 feet tall now, even though they were 2 feet tall a month ago with hardly any significant lateral branches. They are advertised to grow to 30-36"....... These plants are in a front yard that gets at least 11-12 hours of direct sun per day right now, so shade isnt the cause of tall growth, besides, they are also very thick stemmed, which wouldnt be the case if there was a lack of sun.

Oakland 11/24/14: Justice For Michael Brown
At least 1,500 people took to the streets in Oakland after the grand jury decision in Missouri on Monday not to indict Darren Wilson, the police officer who shot and killed 18-year-old Michael Brown in Ferguson, Mo. Protesters blocked freeway I-580 at multiple locations, broke the windows of banks, set small fires, threw bottles at police, and looted a chain grocery store near the Oakland police station.

This week we bring you an exclusive report on the pandemic that's infecting the globe. Insurrecto-Riotosis. The first wave of the pandemic was reported in the city of Nantes in France following the police murder of 21 year old eco-defender Rémi Fraisse.
This contagion quickly spread to Belgium where 100,000 peeps hit the streets in Brussels to show their anger to a proposed package of austerity cuts.
In Mexico, insurrecto-riotisis is quickly turning into a full-fledged pandemic, as protests demanding the safe return of 43 students kidnapped on September 26th continue to escalate dramatically.
Also, Wal-Mart employees in Los Angeles staged their first-ever sit-down strike against the mammoth retail giant.
And all over Turtles Island, a massive fight-back against sexual violence and rape culture has blown up over social media.
On the music break, a killer mash up of Keny Arkana's "La Rage" by DAM.
And this week we feature an interview with Andalusia Knoll, a journalist with the autonomous media collective "Subversiones" who breaks down the who, when, what, why, how of the insurrection in Mexico.

Bolton Wanderers v Arsenal
Follow every kick as Bolton Wanderers take on Arsenal at in the Premier League
on 17-Jan-2010, kick off time 16:00
Bolton Wanderers v Arsenal Live
All eyes will be on Bolton's new manager Owen Coyle on Sunday as he bids to keep the ailing club in the Premier League.Coyle's first task could hardly be more difficult as the reign at the Reebok Stadium begins with the visit of an in-form Arsenal side.The Trotters find themselves down in 18th place in the table as they have won just one league game since October and Coyle's immediate challenge is to lift the sense of ambivalence which overshadowed the final days of predecessor Gary Megson's reign.Just two home league wins all season and no clean sheets in their last 11 top-flight games at the Reebok Stadium has led to dwindling crowds.However, the former Wanderers striker will be hoping to win over the club's doubters quickly - and what better way than with a win over one of the league traditional big four."We want to bring everyone together - the players, the staff and particularly the fans. That will help get the results and create a feel-good factor at the football club," declared the Scot.Ivan Klasnic has scored five goals in his last six league matches and much will be expected of the on-loan Croatia striker.Meanwhile, Arsenal will be looking to return to winning ways at a ground where they have enjoyed recent success.The Gunners have won their last three visits to the Reebok in all competitions, scoring three goals on each occasion. They have also won the last six meetings with Bolton in all competitions.However, last weekend's 2-2 home draw with Everton has led to questions being asked about the north London club's title chances and their ability to keep up with Chelsea and Manchester United during the second half of the season.They still look a little lightweight in attack with Robin van Persie sidelined, but Nicklas Bendtner could return from his lengthy groin problem with a place on the bench.Skipper Cesc Fabregas is likely to be back following his hamstring problem to pull the midfield strings, but Theo Walcott (rib), Kieran Gibbs (foot), Gael Clichy (back), Jack Wilshere (hamstring) and Denilson (rib) are still missing.Sol Campbell could be named on the bench following Arsene Wenger's decision to re-sign the veteran former Gunners and England defender on a short-term deal until the end of the season.

The Bradley Center
Attendance: 11,975
Milwaukee, WI (Sports Network) - John Salmons scored 17 points and grabbed six rebounds while Corey Maggette supplied 16 points and nine boards in Milwaukee's 92-74 win over Toronto at the Bradley Center.
Andrew Bogut provided 14 points, five caroms and five blocked shots and Luc Richard Mbah a Moute chipped in with 10 points and a game-best 14 rebounds for the Bucks, who halted a four-game slide.
"If we're going to make a push for the playoffs, we have to start now," said Salmons. "We have to take care of these home games and win the games we're supposed to. It's always one game at time but there is a sense of urgency. We can't wait any longer. Hopefully, we can get on a roll and win some games."
Andrea Bargnani notched a game-high 23 points while DeMar DeRozan contributed 18 points and seven boards for the Raptors, who temporarily interrupted a 13- game losing streak in their last game Friday versus Minnesota.
Milwaukee moved out to a 24-17 lead after the first quarter as the Raptors made only 8-of-25 shots from the floor in the opening 12 minutes.
Toronto shaved an eight-point deficit to two on a handful of occasions during the latter half of the second quarter and got the game even at 38 on a Sonny Weems dunk with just under a minute to go.
Bogut's dunk with 28.8 ticks remaining gave the hosts the lead at the break.
Milwaukee opened the second half with an 11-2 run to forge a 51-40 edge with 8:42 to go in the third quarter.
The difference grew to as many as 12 before the Raptors trimmed their deficit to 66-58 heading into the final stanza.
Salmons and Mbah a Moute combined to score nine during a 16-4 burst to open the fourth quarter that extended the hosts advantage to 82-62 just past the midway point of the period.
Toronto never got closer than 17 the rest of the way and fell to 5-23 on the road this season.
"We just didn't have enough of our starters play well," Toronto head coach Jay Triano said about the loss. "We can't afford to have two or three guys have a subpar game. Our margin for error is very small. They contested shots and were physical and sometimes that takes your confidence away."

The Web's best 'Happy Birthday' cards for NASA
NASA turns 50 today. On July 29, 1958, President Dwight Eisenhower signed his name to the National Aeronautics and Space Act, creating the agency that brought man to the moon, satellites to distant planets, and landers to Mars.
No NASA milestone would be complete without tons of multimedia coverage. So, to help ring in this golden jubilee, here's some of the best multimedia NASA-birthday coverage from across the web. Feel free to post your own links in the comments section below.
NASAImages.org – NASA just launched a massive, online collection of archival images, video, and audio. The free site partners with the Internet Archive to constantly update its galleries and will soon hold millions of pictures and thousands of hours of audio/visual project.
Wired's Best-Of Galleries – The snarky science-lovers at Wired rolled out three NASA picture galleries this week: The Space Suit Makes the NASA Astronaut, NASA's Most Amazing Extraterrestrial Vehicles, and NASA's Most Embarrassing Goofs. Also check out their coverage of yesterday's Virgin Galactic press conference, where Richard Branson unveiled a prototype of the White Knight Two commercial spacecraft.

Peter J. Arduino Sr.
"Beloved Husband, Father & Grandfather"
Mr. Peter J. Arduino Sr. 84 of 63 Lockwood Drive, passed away peacefully on Friday, April 11, 2014 at the Village at East Farms, surrounded by his loving family. He was the beloved husband of Mary C. (Berte) Arduino for 56 years.
Peter was born in Tarrytown, New York on April 16, 1929 son of the late Giuseppe and Giuseppa (Abrami) Arduino. He was a 1947 graduate of Washington Irving High School, where he excelled in sports, especially football and track. He graduated from Westchester Community College, where he received a degree in Electronics Technology. He was a veteran of the U.S. Air Force where he served from 1951 to 1954. He worked as an Electronics Technician for Timex Corp. in Irvington, NY until he was transferred to Middlebury, Connecticut in 1977. He retired from Allied Signal in 1991.
He coached little league for many years in Tarrytown, was a Tarrytown Parks and Recreation volunteer, a high school football referee, and a volunteer fireman for the Phoenix Hose Fire House in Tarrytown until moving to Connecticut. He was an avid tennis player, Notre Dame football fan, and a life-long Yankees fan. He enjoyed spending countless hours tending to his vegetable garden and traveling with his family to other parts of the United States, Canada and Italy.
He was on the founding committee of Carolyn's Place Pregnancy Care Center in Waterbury, where he dedicated himself to the protection of the unborn and was a loving presence to girls and women in need. He was the go-to handyman and did whatever was necessary to ensure that every client he met felt loved, valued, and cared for. He was always the first person to help anyone in need, whether it be family, friend, or stranger. His kind and gentle nature endeared him to all who knew him. He lived out his Christian faith in every aspect of his life.
Besides his wife, he is survived by his four children; Jo Anne Macioci and her husband Michael of Southington, Maria McWaid of Wolcott, Peter Arduino Jr. of Watertown, and Diane Premus and her husband Joseph of Southington, eight grandchildren; Christina, Nicole and Danielle Macioci all of Southington, Justin and Pamela McWaid both of Wolcott, and Julia, Olivia and Andrew Premus all of Southington, his brother, Frank Arduino and many nieces and nephews. He was predeceased by his brother Santo Arduino, and two nephews; Luke Arduino and Frank "Butchie" Berte.
His wife, children, and grandchildren were the delights and loves of his life.
Special thanks to the entire staff at the Harbor at the Village at East Farms for their love, compassion, and care given to him and his entire family. Also, thank you to VITAS hospice for the compassionate care given to everyone.

text: Kings officially staying in Sacramento as NBA approves local saleBy Greg Botelho, CNNUpdated 2323 GMT (0623 HKT) May 28, 2013The Sacramento Kings will remain in northern California after the NBA board approved the team's sale to a local ownership group.Story highlightsThe NBA's board of governors approves the sale of the Sacramento KingsTech entrepreneur Vivek Ranadive heads the Kings' new ownership groupMaloof family had deals to sell to a group that would've moved the team to SeattleNBA executives rejected those relocation bidsAfter a prolonged courtship with Seattle, the Sacramento Kings are officially staying put.About two weeks after rejecting a sales bid that would have had the team moving 750 miles north to Washington state, the NBA board of governors on Tuesday approved the Kings' sale to a local ownership group helmed by Vivek Ranadive.The vote was unanimous, the NBA said in a news release, and "the transaction is expected to close shortly." Terms of the deal were not released."Thanks to entire NBA for approving sale of Kings to our organization," tweeted Ranadive, the founder and CEO of TIBCO Software in Palo Alto, California. "It is an honor & a privilege to be part of such an amazing community."The Maloof family -- known for ownership of properties in Las Vegas, such as the Palms, among other business ventures -- has been trying for months to unload its majority owner stakes in the pro basketball franchise.The family members have on multiple occasions reached apparent deals to sell the team to a Seattle-based group, including investor Chris Hansen and Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer, only to be rebuffed by other NBA executives.In January, these two parties reached a deal for that group to buy the Maloofs' 53% share of the team as well as minority owner Bob Hernreich's 12% stake. But the board of governors never signed off.The Maloof family and Hansen's group, though, kept on talking, leading to another deal for a higher price and a vote earlier this month by the NBA board.Public officials in Sacramento, meanwhile, never gave up on their efforts to keep the team. Led by Mayor Kevin Johnson, who is a former all-star NBA guard, they worked on a stadium plan and collaborated with a group led by Ranadive that was intent on keeping the team in northern California.On May 15, the 22 members of the league's board of governors rejected the Kings' relocation bid, while eight voted in favor. After that vote, Commissioner David Stern cited the existence of a "strong ownership group," a construction team and a plan for a new arena, plus strong support from officials and residents in the Sacramento area.Johnson celebrated that day, and again on Tuesday.Congrats to @Vivek & the new ownership group!" the mayor wrote on Twitter. "NBA's unanimous vote sends a strong statement of support for the Kings' bright future in Sac!"More from usLaGuardia runway reopens after Delta flight skids off itFederal judge shot in apparent robbery attempt in DetroitPowered by Livefyre

5 I can't wait for PCD's new album!samspade | 06/09/2008 | See all samspade's reviews (14)I wasn't keen on the new single When I Grow Up but it has definately now (parden the pun) grown on me and I love it. I have heard the tracks I Hate This Part and Takin' Over The World and these are both very catchy and typical PCD songs and are both excellent. The former is a slower number and much like the previous Stick Wit U is very beautiful. The other song is their typical dancy track with it's catchy chorus. I have given the album 5 out of 5 already as if the other songs are anything like the 3 I have heard it wil be just as good if not better than their last album! Welcome back PCD you have been missed. Can't wait to get this album!!
5 8]PMParslow | 31/01/2009 | See all PMParslow's reviews (2)Doll domination indeed ;]This album is soo fantastic!There actually isnt no fault to it really,The price of £8.95 (when i paid for it) ...Is really worth it seems theres 18 brilliantTracks to listen to.I think their album is also really uniqueCompared to other girl groups because unlikeOthers they dont sound the same.My personal favourite track from this album is..* Out of this club featuring r kelly & polow da don *=]
4 They call you sexy......isn't it the truth!!!radjy1 | 22/09/2008 | See all radjy1's reviews (78)I love pcd, and this album is no exception. Although it's not as good as their first album, it's still a wonderfully funky album that make's you want to 'get fresh 'n' funky!!'This album is an extremely cool follow up to their debut album.When i grow up i wanna be a pussycat doll!!
4 SEXY SEXY SEXYgazg01 | 22/09/2008 | See all gazg01's reviews (12)Another top album from the dolls...every track could be a smash hit and if your as lucky as me get the deluxe edition- theres 5 brand new tracks from each of the girls, Kimberly and Ashleys are my favourites !!!!!!!!!!!!
2 2 stars!Tilly289 | 26/11/2008 | See all Tilly289's reviews (10)When i first heard "when i grow up" i didn't instantly get into the song like i did the whole of their first album, but after hearing "i hate this part" i had to buy the album!.. Yet i wasnt at all pleased with what was on this new album compared to their old stuff. Id recommend downloading about 3 or 4 songs off it, but i wouldn't recomend buying this album if you loved the last one.

"So does ignorance." says the one rationalizing poor behavior.

Well done OP, you summed up my concerns about the way Riot designs its female characters very well, and explained it far better than I could have done. It's great to see so many people supporting you in this thread, and I hope that Riot will post here. Unfortunately there have been a lot of ignorant comments as well. My summoner name makes it pretty clear that I'm a girl, and while harassment in game isn't a big problem for me, I do get it occasionally, and more often I just have people making a big deal about me being a girl or being really surprised that I play this game. I didn't really think that much about making my summoner name feminine, it was just one of the first things that came to mind, and I don't try to make a big deal about my gender but I suppose it's nice to have people use the correct pronouns for you rather than just assume you're a guy. What I have found interesting about a lot of the comments here is how dismissive some people are about this problem. Sexism is widespread in the gaming industry and it's something we should think about and acknowledge, not just flat out deny. A lot of people have assumed that the OP is a woman simply because he has these concerns, as if the only people who care about feminism and gender equality are "whiny" girls. Also there have been a few girl gamers specifically commenting that they don't see a problem here. This shows that men are not the only ones who can be dismissive of gender concerns. Often in a male dominated environment it can be appealing for women to side with the majority and not take issue with what's going on. It's as if they're trying to say, well I'm a girl, so I have authority on the topic, and I don't see a problem here, so therefore there can't be a problem. While I'm not saying that the way characters are designed in this game is something that everyone should be getting up in arms about, I do think it's something we should discuss and that people should acknowledge that some might object to it, for legitimate reasons. Much like the OP, I don't have a problem with sexy female characters, expecially when it fits with their personality (for example Ahri and Miss Fortune). I do have a problem with the homogenaety of female characters and the fact that so many of them are sexualized, if not in their classic look in a skin. I really like Diana, Vayne and Riven because their classic skins make them look pretty baddass, and they aren't just like fighting **** toys. But they each have a skin that makes you think of *** as soon as you look at it, despite the fact that this characterization doesn't really suit them or their lore. I just think it would be great if Riot introduced a little more variety in terms of female body types and personalities. The male characters are far more diverse. The OP breaks this down very well. Why is it that we can have old male characters like Corki and Zilean, and a range of body types, but all the female characters absolutely have to be young and beautiful? If nothing else, this makes the game less diverse than it could be, and limits the possibilities of female characterization. Edit: Also, I think that the OP was correct in identifying Varus as the only sexualized male champion. While many others are muscular and/or attractive, they are not designed in a way that makes you think of *** as soon as you see them. Their muscles are a sign of their physical strength and power, not simply an aesthetic feature. Most women prefer men who are muscular, but not to the extremes of, say, Tryndamere.

I thought the day would never come when I would have to make an utterly gigantic post in a gaming forum but it seems that the thread more than demands it. For starters, I will address your post point by point.

Too Much, Too Soon?
Hello everyone,
I havent set foot on a sailboat in quite a while, and never acted as crew on one before, but I generally love the feel of being on the water in most any boat. Assuming that I truly enjoy sailing as much as I remember, I was wondering if any of you have encountered or heard anything about the ASA SUPER TRACK. Its the certification for 101-105 over a span of one week. It certainly makes sense financially, as its a few hundred dollars cheaper than taking each course individually, and taking time off of work would be more manageable, as I could take a single week off instead of a few days at a time. But, Im worried that taking all of those courses at once would be too much in too small amount of time. What are your thoughts?

PCTEL Introduces Revolutionary Pay-Per-Use System For SeeGull® EXflex Scanning Receiver
PCTEL, Inc. (NASDAQ: PCTI), a leader in simplifying wireless and site solutions for private and public networks, launched the first-ever Pay-Per-Use program for wireless network drive test and walk test equipment. Exclusively available for PCTEL's SeeGull EX flex scanning receivers , the new metered licensing system will make it easier for PCTEL's customers to use cutting-edge network testing equipment while effectively managing their capital expenditures (CAPEX) and operating expense (OPEX) budgets.
PCTEL's innovative Pay-Per-Use scheme makes high-quality network testing equipment more convenient and cost-effective. While network testing equipment can lead to more efficient networks and higher data throughput, resource and budget constraints can make it difficult to acquire the best equipment for every project. The SeeGull EX flex combines best-in-class performance and accuracy with the flexibility to adapt to almost any network testing project across the globe. The Pay-Per-Use model takes advantage of that flexibility and allows PCTEL's customers to acquire new scanning receivers for a nominal fee. Once they have a Pay-Per-Use scanning receiver, customers will pay only for the time they actually use.
"We believe the Pay-Per-Use model will revolutionize the scanning receiver industry," said David Neumann, General Manager of PCTEL RF Solutions. "The SeeGull EX flex will help carriers, network operators, and service providers effectively manage their budgets without compromising on quality, accuracy, and performance. Pay-Per-Use combines an on-demand scanner management system with deployed full featured scanning receivers to significantly reduce lead times for projects," added Neumann.
Pay-Per-Use SeeGull EX flex scanning receivers are available for deployment today. For further details about PCTEL's Pay-Per-Use model, visit rfsolutions.pctel.com/Pay-Per-Use or contact your regional sales representative.
