Calling Greenwich Point one of the "jewels in the crown of Greenwich," First Selectman Peter Tesei was one of many on hand to celebrate the beginning of the restoration of one of the most notable buildings there.
At a special ceremony on Sunday afternoon, the ceremonial shovels hit the ground for the formal restoration of the Old Barn, a piece of the Greenwich Point area that was once part of the J. Kennedy Tod estate. The building, which had been used as the north concession stand at the beach, has fallen into great disrepair due to age and weather, particularly from Hurricane Sandy in 2012, and now will be restored as part of a public/private partnership between the town and the Greenwich Point Conservancy.
The groundbreaking came on the successful restoration of the Innis Arden Cottage by the Greenwich Point Conservancy, and the event was a packed affair as close to 75 people braved the winter chill on the beach to join Mr. Tesei, U.S. Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.), state Sen. L. Scott Frantz (R-36th), and state Reps. Stephen Walko (R-150th) and Fred Camillo (R-151st) as the first shovels went into the ground. The conservancy said it's hoping for the same success for the Old Barn that it had at the cottage, and is naming a new building after one of the driving forces behind restoration and preservation at Greenwich Point.
Once the building is restored, it will be the home of the Sue H. Baker Pavilion at the Old Barn, and Chris Franco, president of the conservancy, took great pride in noting that where everyone was standing for the groundbreaking would eventually be the site of outdoor dining that would provide views of Long Island Sound.
"I'm confident that the Baker Pavilion will become a favorite community resource, much like the Innis Arden Cottage," Mr. Franco said.
While the decision to name the building after Ms. Baker, a longtime teacher at Greenwich High School and other town schools as well as a conservancy co-founder and environmentalist, had been public for some time, the official announcement from Mr. Franco at the groundbreaking was greeted by enthusiastic cheers from the many in attendance. This has been a project Ms. Baker has been involved with for years, and she recalled bringing students to Greenwich Point and seeing chunks of the roof from the Old Barn flying off because of the wind.
"For decades Susan has been a shining star here in Greenwich, especially at Greenwich Point, as a teacher, a conservationist, an environmentalist, and a preservationist," Mr. Franco said. "She really is fabulous, and Susan's name will forever be associated with Greenwich Point."
Mr. Tesei, a former student of Ms. Baker, also gave his enthusiastic support.
"I think when people look back many, many years from now on this day, they will appreciate that this was another milestone in preserving what is truly special about the Point, but most important, recognizing an individual who has given of herself throughout many decades," Mr. Tesei said. "Sue is a special person. All of you know that. All of you who worked with her and spent time with her know that she cares not just about the environment, but cares about people, too. She's a true people person who has a big heart and puts herself into everything that she does, and her enthusiasm is contagious. When we look back at this, we're going to say, 'What a wonderful day to recognize someone who has given so much to so many and made such a lasting contribution to so many people's lives and the environment here at Greenwich Point.'"
The work on the Old Barn will be the main project for the conservancy, and fund-raising efforts remain ongoing. After the five years it took to complete the Innis Arden Cottage restoration, the Old Barn became the next focus for the group, but there have been complicating factors, including the long process needed for Planning and Zoning Commission approvals and Hurricane Sandy, which had a big impact on Greenwich Point.
Mr. Frantz called the conservancy the "ultimate public/private partnership" and said that the "spectacular work" done at the site was an example of how to do things right. He said that while many just see the end results of the work, it was the conservancy members who went through the long Planning and Zoning meetings to get there.
"It takes a tremendous amount of work and requires a tremendous amount of resources, and these guys, as well as the entire group and the board of directors, bring it all together and get it focused," Mr. Frantz said. "They say in 1946, Greenwich Point was bought by the town, thanks to some good thinkers back then, as a gift for the returning troops. But this is a gift that will always be a gift to all of you and future generations."
Mr. Walko, who noted that he has been regularly chided for years by Ms. Baker for not taking her class while he was at GHS, added, "If there's any force that can combat hurricanes and forces of nature that helped bring this building down to some degree, it's the spirit that's here today. It's amazing to see so many of you out here on a cold January afternoon, and it's not about the building, it's about Susie Baker, and for that, I can't help but imagine that with the planning and thought that went into this building, it will sustain future storms."
The crowd for the event also included former state Rep. Lile Gibbons and former First Selectman Richard Bergstresser, who was credited by Ms. Baker as having seen the need for the restoration when she went to him more than 10 years ago and supporting her. She said that since then, through the administrations of Mr. Bergstresser, James Lash and now Mr. Tesei, they have had the first selectman's office giving them the help they've needed.
Mr. Franco served as the master of ceremonies for the groundbreaking, and referred to the building as a "diamond in the rough" that he predicted would soon be "restored to its former glory" right alongside the Innis Arden Cottage next door, creating an "exceptional gateway to Greenwich Point." He thanked everyone who had helped for their support and their commitment to historic preservation throughout the town, particularly Chuck and Deborah Royce, longtime residents who have given to many other preservation causes in town.
The decision to name the pavilion after Ms. Baker came from the Royces, who have been big donors to the project. Ms. Royce said Ms. Baker had originally approached them with the offer to name the building after themselves, but that it was clear who deserved the honor when they toured the building and people came up to them to say hi to Ms. Baker.
"Every person knew Susie, loved Susie and wanted to talk to Susie," Ms. Royce said. "She is one of the most generous people I have ever met. She will help you with anything. There's not a project I have embarked on that she hasn't helped me on."
In an interview with the Post, Ms. Baker said she was totally surprised by the Royces' gesture and that she was honored by it. After decades of working at Greenwich Point with students and campaigning for restoration of the historic buildings, she said, the gesture meant a lot to her.
"I was very touched by what the Royces did," Ms. Baker said. "We've been fighting to keep this place from being developed and in a historic realization of what was here. We're taking one more step toward that by restoring the barn."
Mr. Blumenthal, a Greenwich resident, said he was proud to be part of the ceremony and praised all the effort that had gone into the project, while admiring the view of the Sound that would soon be available to people eating on the Sue Baker Pavilion.
"It's a testament, not just to Sue and to Deborah and Chuck and Chris for all your great work and everyone who is here today, but the entire Greenwich community," Mr. Blumenthal said. "There are very few communities that value and treasure so consistently and dearly the environmental values that we celebrate today. To be good stewards, to know the value of this kind of spectacular place, is really a gift."

Myofascial massage is a kind of modeling of the face the type of "circular facelift" without surgery. This practice involves massaging effect on the tissue enveloping the muscles, allowing you to achieve relaxation and improved circulation. However, to correctly perform the procedure, need special skills and knowledge.
Operating principle
Myofascia is the membrane that covers all the vessels, organs, nerves, it forms "cases" for the muscles. Its main functions are supporting and trophic. It is the groups of myofascia that are responsible for the disorders of functions, painful sensations, and also motor activity. Performing a massage, a specialist has a direct effect on the fascia, restoring them and making them more flexible.
Myofascial massage improves the movement of lymph and blood. The fascia is released from tension and stagnation, and this, in turn, allows the muscles to move freely in their radius.
Beneficial effect of the procedure on a person:
- wrinkles on forehead and nasolabial triangle are smoothed;
- the second chin diminishes;
- wrinkles in the eye area become less noticeable;
- facial muscles begin to work in normal mode;
- the pores become narrower.
Only a specialist will be able to make a highly effective myofascial massage training which allows you to learn to recognize hands "clips" of muscles, which entail age-related changes. The procedure occurs without the use of massage oils, thanks to this you can do when caring for oily and combination skin.
How is the session
First of all, the client should tell the specialist about the existing health problems. Vascular problems, as well as severe skin inflammation, can be the reason for refusing to perform a massage.
Throughout the session the therapist must maintain contact with the client, he periodically asks to change pose. To get the maximum effect from the procedure you need to relax and escape from it all.
During the massage the master asks to breathe slowly, but regularly, while counting to 5 with each inhalation and exhalation. This is what allows you to relax muscles as much as possible, while they become more pliable. The specialist studies the face and décolleté zone, identifying the points of greatest stress. After palpating, he determines the most strained muscles and actions that will help them relax.
During the second session, the actions of the masseur become more dynamic and strong. With each subsequent session, the master is easier to work with, since the muscles of the massaged become more pliable.
Myofascial massage is a medical and cosmetic procedure that affects not only the skin of the face, but also the entire body.
This kind of massage should be chosen, starting from the condition of muscles and skin. The cause of the course of myofascial massage can be puffiness, deep wrinkles, flabbiness and lack of elasticity of the skin. In addition, this procedure should be considered by those who have a second chin or unhealthy complexion.
Indications can also be:
- low muscle tone;
- excess fat on the face;
- expansion of pores;
- rehabilitation after plastic surgery.
This procedure is a great way to prevent age-related skin changes. A large number of cosmetologists are saying about myofascial massage as a perfect alternative to the circular face lift.
Choosing this type of massage, it is necessary to treat their diseases, which can be a cause of failure from this procedure. About myofascial massage forget those who have:
- rash, which resulted from an infectious-allergic disease;
- oncological disease;
- fever;
- injuries of the musculoskeletal system;
- presence on the face of moles, eczema, papillomas, herpes.
Myofascial facial massage: technique of performing
The first thing to do is to empty the skin, washing off the make-up from your face. Due to this, all pores will be cleaned, and oxygen can freely pass through them during the procedure. Otherwise, all efforts will be in vain.
The masseur begins his work with the elaboration of the scalp. The master works with two open hands, while the intensive movements of the hands should resemble screwing.
Further myofascial massage continues, turning the head to the side. The left hand specialist has on the scalp, while the thumb should be placed in front of the ear. The right palm is placed on the neck, in this case the thumb is placed on the other side of the ear. At this moment stroking of the skin begins, rubbing and kneading them.
Next, you need to stretch your chin, the skin on the neck and under the ears, using two hands. At the same slow strokes being replaced by more energetic movements.
Further the masseur has the right hand on hair, thus fingers should be directed towards to a forehead. The second hand is also on the forehead, but only three fingers remain active: the big one works near the temporal lobe, and the index and middle are working out the forehead zone. Hands stretch the fascia, and then move towards each other.
After that, start to massage under the corners of the mouth. Further, gentle kneading movements act on the line from the corners of the mouth to the cheekbones and in the opposite direction. When moving in the opposite direction, manipulation should be more intense.
The skin is easily rolled from the outer corners of the eyes to the inside and back. Manipulation must be repeated for the upper and lower eyelids. In doing this, when performing a procedure such as myofascial massage, the technique forbids stretching the skin, pinching and pressing heavily on them.
Then go to the bridge of the nose and the superciliary arches. Moving from the center to the temples, the skin is pinched and kneaded. At the final stage of myofascial massage, the face is worked over the scalp with the fingers of both hands. In this case, one hand works from the back of the head, and the other - from the side of the neck.
Basic movements
All movements of the master are directed along the muscle fibers. On the face they should be light, kneading, at the same time remind tingling and stroking. More intensive manipulations are performed on the head.
One of the master's hand shall lift a layer of skin, the other to move it until then, until there is resistance. Such actions cannot be called tweaking, this is the felting of the skin, i.e. its lift and shift.
Is it possible to do the procedure at home
As experts say, at home, this kind of massage can not be done. The expected result is achieved only with the help of professionals who have rich experience and knowledge of the necessary knowledge behind them.
To be able to perform myofascial facial massage, training is mandatory. At the same time, he can pass only one who has already taken place as a masseur. It is very important to know all the points on the body and to properly influence the muscles and connective tissues. Otherwise, the procedure will not give the desired effect, rather, on the contrary, will cause side effects.
Myofascial massage: reviews
People who have experienced the effect of this procedure on himself, saying that it not only helps to eliminate significant age-related changes of the skin, but also has a positive effect on the General state of muscles and the maintenance of their tone.
However, it is necessary to observe elementary rules of hygiene, if the massage is performed at home. If the procedure is performed in the salon, then you should definitely ensure the high professionalism of the master, otherwise problems can occur. If you go to a qualified specialist, then the result will persist for a long time.
This massage practice has a clearly expressed rejuvenating effect, it is easily compatible with any cosmetic procedures and only enhances their effect. Thanks to myofascial massage, you can get excellent results in normalizing the muscle tone and restoring the face oval. This technique helps to relieve muscle tension in the face and scalp, as well as in the décolleté zone. Myofascial facial massage helps improve blood circulation and solves hair growth problems, helps to relieve emotional stress and headaches.

The Saturday night's terror attack in UK, which left seven dead and injured 48 after a van ploughed into pedestrians on the London bridge before assailants indiscriminately stabbed revellers in a nearby market, was not the first time when the country descended into panic and shock. England has been a victim to many such attacks in recent past, the one on Saturday being the third since March. Scotland Yard Commissioner Cressida Dick said that the death toll in the attack has reached seven, in addition to the three suspects, who were shot dead by the police. "My current information is that 48 people are injured…," she told reporters.
Most recently, a bomb explosion had rocked the city of Manchester after the concert of US singer Ariana Grande, where about 22 people had died and more than 60 injured. The incident occurred on May 22, less than a month before Saturday's attack in London
Here is a list of the major terror attacks in UK since the last two years:
June 3: Two attacks — one on London Bridge and and in the nearby Borough market — killed six people and left 40 wounded.
May 22: At least 22 persons died and 116 were wounded when a young British suicide bomber detonated a bomb at the Manchester Arena shortly after a concert of American singer Ariana Grande.
March 22: A car veered into pedestrians on the Westminster Bridge near the British Parliament building, killing at least four people and injuring 40 others.
June 16: British opposition Labour Party MP Jo Cox died after being shot and stabbed multiple times in Birstall, West Yorkshire. She became the first incumbent British MP to be killed since 1990.
December 5: A man attacked three people with a knife at the Leytonstone tube station in East London. One of the victims was seriously wounded, and the other two suffered slight injuries.

A Phase-Change Random Access Memory Model for Circuit Simulation (invited presentation)
M. Chan
Keywords: phase change memory, PCM
Abstract:A temperature tracking approach has been developed to model the property of phase-change memory (PCM) behavior under input pulses with arbitrary magnitude and shapes. By utilizing the Johnson-Mehl-Avrami equation to monitor the crystal fraction in the phase-change element crystallization process, the resulting resistance of the memory is dynamically calculated. Multi-level memory program and data retention can also be simulated using the proposed method. The model has been implemented in a circuit simulator by Verilog-A and has been verified by experimental data in the literature as well as numerical simulation

Before organic and chemical products were so common many chemical-adverse moms even used it as mosquito repellant. Some people still swear by it for that purpose today. I am a mosquito magnet and it has never kept them from biting me. But I love Skin So Soft as bath oil after a long soak. I have been a devotee of beauty oils long before they became trendy. (Google DolceDolce.com beauty oils to find our reviews and picks.) Now this classic has been enriched with jojoba. It still has a soft amber-musk scent with an herbal top note. Skin So Soft is available in large bottles as well as spray bottles. At $13 or less for 16 ounces it is a classic beauty bargain.

Not as easy to remember as the last one, but oh well. I'm really excited for the new mission to be official and to meet President Brown.(Note my new address in the address box.) I feel like this is where I was supposed to be from the beginning. It just feels right. My ankle is doing great. Bruised still... but fully functional with minimal pain.
This week has been incredible. We've had dinner with a family that is friends with our ward mission leader. We have a couple other members in our ward that are inviting their friends to feed us. It's really neat to be able to get into people's homes in such a relaxed way and give them an opportunity to feel the spirit when if we tracted into them they probably wouldn't have let us in. We also had dinner with the L family. They always remind me of living in Tennessee with the Davidsons. I love the South and miss it quite a bit. They continue to keep an open mind to the things we share and have such good hearts. I just love them. They haven't been to church again yet, but are doing their best to read the Book of Mormon.
We have 4 new investigators this week. FOUR!!!! Heavenly Father loves us. Sister Rosier and I are frequently amazed with how much He trusts us with. S, I told you about last Monday, M came back into the picture, a husband of a member in our ward accepted the invitation to take the discussions, and H, a woman that we found and taught last night agreed to meet with us again.
The Temple owas the highlight of my whole week. It feels so much like home, I didn't want to leave. It is so easy to let myself put importance on things that really don't matter. The Temple always reminds me of what is most important. My Heavenly and earthly family came to mind a lot. I also read the first few chapters of Ephesians while I was in the Celestial Room. Chapter one is incredible. Chapter 3 verses 16-17 are really powerful too. I took from reading those passages, that Heavenly Father works through us. The inner man as it states in chapter 3, made me think of the part of us where faith resides. Each one of us has the light of Christ within us. The more we exercise our faith and rely on that part of our being (or the more we rely on Him), the more we can accomplish, especially when it comes to serving others. I have been able to feel how much more the spirit guides my thoughts and actions when I have the benefit of others on my mind.
We were able to volunteer to help out with a triathalon. We got cool blue shirts and were responsible for passing out water/gatorade to the runners during that section of the race. We also got to dump water on anyone that asked for it... that was my favorite part. I even ran after a guy that wanted to be splashed but was running so fast that we missed him the first time. I'm quite positive that he'll remember the effort that one missionary put into cooling him off a little bit and join the church soon.
Our last mission Denver North Mission Conference. The girls on the left will be south in the Denver area. Sister Gregory, Haas and I on the right will be in the Fort Collins mission. It was cool to see everyone one last time before the split
Helping out with the Triathalon. Sister Gregory, me, Sister Nolin, Sister Rosier and three young women from a local ward.

Yes, Healthcare.gov is better than Sex Panther. Except it's not, because apparently it in the 90% of the time when it works every time it actually fails 33% of the time.
Ron Burgundy is right, it doesn't make sense. Nothing about the government trying to monopolize the health INSURANCE market makes sense (I use all caps to again note the fact that health insurance and health care are NOT THE SAME THING, which is something the government still doesn't seem to understand; nor do most Americans!).

It's the weekend
June 11, 2011
Weekend started with a spur of the moment visit to Jamie's Italian in George Square on Friday night. Quite often Mr K and I order the same meal in a restaurant, it just happens, we have similar taste in food it's rare for one of us to get something the other dislikes, we can be out for dinner with friends sit at opposite ends of the table and nine times out of ten will end up with the same choice of meal! For starters we shared Nachos Jamie style then both decided on linguine, I had prawn and chilli and Mr K had mussels, both of which were delicious; we didn't want to be too greedy (who am I kidding) so shared a tiramisu for dessert all helped down of course with a cheeky bottle of red. The waiter was really lovely and caved in to my demands for a badge just like his, in fact he brought us one each and some Jamie stickers, I'm now the proud owner of a badge which says 'I ate all my greens at Jamie's Italian' - something tells me that the badges might not have been aimed at our age group but hey, they're cute! It might have been too much red wine (who me...) but my photographs from the night seem a teeny bit blurry, still it all adds to the mood! Saturday morning we joined S & C for breakfast at Cafezique, look at that wonderful beetroot and mackerel paté, I'm reliably informed my Mr K that it tasted as good as it looked. Recipe for the Chilli Prawn Linguine is here.

Following is the speech by the Secretary for the Environment, Mr Edward Yau, at the opening ceremony of Lung Fu Shan Environmental Education Centre today (April 16):
Prof Tsui, Sarah, distinguished guests, ladies and gentlemen,
It is my great pleasure to be here at this opening ceremony of the Lung Fu Shan Environmental Education Centre, witnessing an important milestone in the operation of a new education centre through a joint venture agreement between the University of Hong Kong and the Government.
The idea of this education centre was initiated by my predecessor Dr Sarah Liao and the university and I am happy to be associated with this project and to see a very good idea being put into implementation through the joint efforts of the university and my department.
Residing in a cluster of three historical buildings on the fringes of the Lung Fu Shan Country Park and the campus of HKU, the new centre offers distinctive opportunities for visitors, both local and overseas, to appreciate the natural beauty of Hong Kong that surrounds our busy and hectic metropolitan city.
The centre presents the very unique setting of Hong Kong - a highly built up area with a multi-million population situated against a highly accessible green hinterland with high ecological value and biodiversity.
Compared with metropolitan cities around the world, one can hardly find a city of comparable size and development that enjoys such a high degree of green coverage of natural vegetation and habitats like Hong Kong. Within our tiny city, we have nurtured more than 50 types of mammals, 480 species of birds, 110 types of dragonflies, 160 freshwater fish, and 230 species of butterflies... What a pleasant surprise that all these habitats are found in our neighbourhood that is within a 15-minute drive from our city core or central business areas and they are all serviced by well maintained trails or public transport links.
This new centre also opens a new door to the greener part of our city. Through guided tours, workshops, exhibitions and training programmes organised by the university, the centre will help reinforce the public's sense of responsibility towards protecting our natural habitats and enable them to better enjoy the green suburb in our proximity.
We see nature conservation as a vital and integral part of our environmental policy. While the Government strives to double its efforts to fight pollution, to improve the quality of our air and water, and to better dispose of our municipal waste, nothing is better than engaging our citizens and instilling among them a sense of responsibility towards our environment through bringing ourselves closer to nature, and to live a greener life.
This new centre is a landmark for the collaboration between the government and the university and we are grateful for the university's support in making available these heritage buildings for conservation and education purposes. It is a clear demonstration of how nature conservation can climb new heights through government/public body co-operation. I am happy to tell the audience that this indeed is a happy partnership that we should encourage and we are hopeful of seeing more examples to come.
Once again, I must tell you how grateful I am to see this centre beginning its service. While I am pressing hard for legislation on a plastic shopping bag levy, imposing control over idling engines, and fighting hard to curb SO2 emission from our power plants, the opening of this new education centre is a breath of fresh air that makes the message loud and clear - we want to see not just cleaner air and less waste disposal, but also a greener lifestyle that is so dear and yet so close to all of us.
With this belief, I congratulate the university as well as my colleagues for a job well done. I love it and I believe that you all will love it and make use of it.
Thank you.

♥ ♥ ♥ YOU are Special ♥ ♥ ♥
You have
proof that you are special, but you have chosen to ignore it because
your theories tell you otherwise.
says scientific theories cannot be proved, only at best confirmed. But surely
individual observations, the plain facts, must be believed if they
are immediately verifiable. Of course Feyerabend says that every fact is theory-laden.
But some facts are so striking that one feels obliged to believe
are true, independent of any particular theory, or perhaps it would
be better to say dependent on every reasonable theory.
Descartes showed one could doubt almost everything, except for this
one thing, I AM. One cannot doubt that one exists because
existence is a prerequisite of this thought: "Cogito, ergo
sum." (I think, therefore I am.) The proof that you are special is this; as far as you
know, without introducing any metaphysical (untestable)
assumptions, yours may be the only consciousness in the universe.
Wherever you go, from birth to death, it will go with you. It
is absolutely attached to you which makes you absolutely different
from everyone else in the world, from your point of view. This
point of view is the only one you have and, although you may deeply
empathise with others, even other animals, you will forever remain
you. You are ABSOLUTELY special and you cannot deny that.
One is unique and absolutely different from every other person.
This scientific observation, that there is only one direct consciousness, is
ignored, degraded and even derided in conventional physics.
The ultimate
laws of nature appear to be tautologies;
What is consciousness? It is this immediate experience.
It is not about what was or what will be. It is about this
here and now awareness. This is it. This is where
consciousness is – always in the present; compared with memories of
awareness, or assumptions of awareness, or endowments of awareness
in others. We naturally endow fellow citizens with
consciousness – their equivalent of our experience. However,
this is a metaphysical presumption which is not testable except by
inference from a normal perspective. From a purely empirical
stance, there is and can only be one consciousness, only one
immediate and present reality, only one fountain of direct
awareness. All other hypothetical consciousnesses are
metaphysical assumptions without scientific basis, except in so far
as our philosophy of science presupposes them. Hearsay and
rhetoric will convince us of other minds - a complex tangle of
states leading to complex behaviour patterns - but consciousness is
certainly singularly mine, is it not?

It's no mystery that over here at TBS Crew we are very much into tattoos. Chiara, Riccardo, Vince, Giorgia, Martina, Greg all have one – or more! And I just realized we've never talked about how to best care for the artwork on your skin; as the beauty editor, I really need to take my responsibilities! But let's start with a confession: I don't have a single tattoo. So all this advice comes from friends who have them, brought together by yours truly. 😉
Taking care of your tattoo starts even before the moment you walk out of the parlor. How? That's something you need to ask your tattoo artist. Rule number one: you take note of everything they recommend, because they know their artwork (and how to care for it) best. A few hours after coming home, it's time to wash your tattoo for the first time. You can use a delicate wash, a specific product, or try the latest product on the market: a sponge by Konjac Sponge Company made specifically for tattoos. No need for soap, and it prevents your skin from developing scabs that will take a long time to heal. You can also sterylize it in boiling water for a couple minutes after every use.
Just like for your face, after cleaning comes moisturizing. And in this case too you need to use an appropriate product, ideally with no perfumes at least for as long as your skin is healing (such as Bepanthenol or Aquaphor) or at least as delicate as possible and fast drying. In fact, keeping your skin dry and clean is the best way to guarantee a tattoo will have a long life, so go ahead and take a shower but don't spend hours in the bathtub. Apply moisturizer every day, so that your skin will be in the best condition to heal. Now and later, avoid scratching your skin or using scrubs in the area of your tattoo, as you might stress your skin and end up with a mild infection or tiny cuts, which is exactly what you don't want.
It's summertime, so an important piece of advice: no exposing your tattoo to sunlight! Inks, and especially colored inks, tend to fade in direct light. If you really really need those UV rays, make sure you've applied heavy duty (at least SPF 50) sunscreen generously onto the area… no exceptions!

Customer Reviews
All reviews are from people who have redeemed deals with this merchant.
What You'll Get
With their distinctive, red, white, and blue candy-striped uniforms, the Harlem Globetrotters are instantly recognizable on most courts and maddeningly difficult to guard during pickup games in barber-pole factories. Witness basketball at its most colorful with this deal to see the Harlem Globetrotters play at Pete Hanna Center at Samford University on Sunday, March 17, at 4 p.m. For $46, you get one ticket for seating in sections B–F or L–P, rows 1–6 (up to a $77 value, including all ticketing fees).
Since forming in the 1920s, the Harlem Globetrotters have continued to entertain millions of parents, children, and general basketball admirers with a trademark blend of athletic precision and razzle-dazzle showmanship. For the team's 2012 tour, a rotating roster of Globetrotter favorites take to the hardwood each game, so spectators might spot Special K sharing a behind-the-back pass with dunker Quake, whose high jump once cleared 7 feet, cruelly dashing his dreams of working in a ceiling-fan store. The Globetrotters might also present a study in contrasts with 5-foot-2 Too Tall and 7-foot-8 Tiny, the world's tallest pro basketball player.
During each Globetrotters game, youngsters laugh along and witness the jovial jocks performing classic routines of unconventional passing and sudden transmutations of water into confetti. Having performed in 120 countries and on all six penguin-overrun continents, the Globetrotters are one of the few teams inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame as ambassadors of the sport.

The American government has sounded two main themes in its response to the terrorist onslaught: The United States is going to war against terrorism, and we expect all other countries to support us in the struggle.
The second effort, enlisting the rest of the world, is being done with particular determination and dispatch. Secretary of State Colin Powell began it just the day after the attacks, when he said the administration would make "a worldwide effort to build a coalition against terrorism."
An early and striking success for the effort was the promise by Pakistan's military ruler, Gen. Pervez Musharraf, of "unstinted cooperation in the fight against terrorism." That followed heavy U.S. pressure, with the implicit threat that a failure to cooperate would lead to Pakistan's being treated as a pariah state, cut off from the international finance that it desperately needs.
Pakistan borders Afghanistan, which has harbored the Islamic terrorist who may have directed last week's attacks, Osama bin Laden. Pakistan has been the principal supporter of the fanatic group that now controls most of Afghanistan, the Taliban. It would matter a lot if Musharraf really changes sides. But will he really be able to, given the influence of Islamic extremists in Pakistan?
To demand forcefully that all nations stand against terrorism is unarguably the right policy. So is the administration's warning that any government harboring terrorists will be treated as itself a terrorist regime.
But war, the other prong of the U.S. response, is a more complicated matter. President Bush was correct to say that "war has been declared on us." But actually taking retaliatory military action would raise serious problems and extremely serious dangers. The enemy in this war is elusive. U.S. intelligence, for example, does not seem to know where Osama bin Laden is. "The American people want action, and they want it now," Rep. Bill Young, R-Fl., said. But where?

Pierce The Veil Stream New Song About Paris Attacks
Beloved post-hardcore outfit Pierce The Veil have streamed a new single from their upcoming album Misadventures, which they've described as being about the tragic events that took place in Paris last year. It recently premiered on Annie Mac's BBC Radio 1 show.
Speaking to Radio.com, frontman Vic Fuentes discussed its subject matter: the Bataclan massacre. "I remember the words of one of the guys in Eagles Of Death Metal saying that so many people died trying to save their friends and I just thought that was such an amazing, sad thing – people trying to save each other. I wrote the song as if I was at the show with my girlfriend or my best friend and shit went down, what would we be trying to do – what would be going on in our minds".
Misadventures marks the Cali outfit's fourth full-length and follows on from 2012's incredibly well-received Collide With The Sky, the producer of which reunites with the band on this release. "The Divine Zero" was the first tune to be gifted to us from the new LP, with "Texas Is Forever" having been unveiled late last month.
Listen to Pierce The Veil's new song "Circles" below.
Misadventures is out May 13 through Fearless / Caroline.

Sad teens: Too much smartphone use makes teens unhappy, according to a new study from San Diego State University, which pulled data from over one million eighth, 10th and 12th graders in the U.S. Teens who spent more time on social media, gaming, texting and video-chatting on their phones were not as happy as those who played sports, went outside and interacted with real human beings. In general, teenagers' life satisfaction, self-esteem and happiness plummeted after 2012. Read the full article at tinyurl.com/y7wpashw
Long adolescence: Scientists now think that adolescence now lasts from the ages of 10 to 24, although it used to be thought to end at 19. Markers include education being continued for longer, later marriages and delayed parenthood. Should laws be changed accordingly? Puberty is starting earlier – girls are getting their period as early as 10 instead of around 14. Study author Susan Sawyer writes: "Although many adult legal privileges start at age 18 years, the adoption of adult roles and responsibilities generally occurs later." This change should cause youth support services to extend until age 25. Read the full BBC article at bbc.com/news/health-42732442.

Everyday Habits That Might Cause Your Breast to Sag
Posted by Miami Breast Lift in Blog,Breast Lift Surgery on
Pregnancy, breastfeeding and age can are all well-known contributors to breast sag. Studies have shown that genetics can also play a role in breast sag. However, there are some less-known factors that can hinder the appearance of your breasts. In this blog post, Miami breast lift plastic surgeon Dr. Ary Krau reveals some everyday habits that may cause sag and how you can keep your breasts looking youthful and beautiful.
Smoking is terrible for your health, including your skin. Smoking breaks down elastin, a protein that keeps your skin firm and youthful-looking. Without enough elastin, your breast skin will loosen and sag. Smoking has also been found to weaken and age the skin by decreasing oxygen supply and nutrients to the skin.
Extreme Dieting
Avoid "crash" or "yo-yo" diets that cause you to lose a large amount of weight in a short amount of time. Extreme weight fluctuations, especially over a short amount of time, can weaken the breast tissue and cause the breasts to sag. Losing weight at a gradual pace and following a healthy diet and exercise regimen can help maintain the appearance of your breasts.
Many women remember to put sunscreen on their face and arms, but forget that their breasts are susceptible to sun damage as well. Sunbathing without sunscreen can cause premature aging and unwanted breast sagging. When spending time outdoors, protect your breasts with sunscreen and protective clothing.
Wearing the Wrong Bra
Wearing the wrong bra size or a bra with not enough support can cause the breasts to bounce around, putting stress on the breast skin and collagen. Proper bra support is especially important when exercising. Always wear a sturdy sports bra to protect your breasts when exercising.
How to Perk Up Your Breasts
Avoiding these habits can help you preserve the beauty and perkiness of your breasts. Other people believe exercising and strengthening your pectoral muscles can make your breasts appear lifted. However, the only proven solution for sagging, drooping breasts is breast lift surgery. A breast lift removes excess, stretched-out skin, restoring shape to the breasts. The procedure also raises the nipples to a higher position on the chest wall for a younger-looking appearance. Many women choose to combine breast lift with implants to achieve fuller breasts and an attractive body figure. To learn more about your breast surgery options, reach out to Dr. Ary Krau. Schedule a one-on-one consultation by calling (800) 664-9714 today.

The above text is directly from a comment left on the Facebook page for The Uterus Flag Project.
I've been re energized to re-ignite this project from a few students who are researching about feminism and craftivism.
The Uterus Flag Project is an ongoing art project incorporating the theory of craftivism. This project includes social justice (concerns about women's health issues), social practice (making meaning through the use of fiber arts), art history (addressing feminism and fiber arts/crafts in the 70's), and collaboration (participation in a living project).
All creative ideas are shared, whether intentionally or not.
As I was developing my social justice, feminist fiber, craftivism project so are others around the world.
I'd love to travel to England and do a Sit and Stitch there!

I woke up this morning not feeling too stellar. I had a bit of a sinus headache last night. This morning it made a reappearance along with a scratchy throat. My co-worker Mel is out sick today because she felt like she was dying when she woke up this morning. I wonder if this is what I have to look forward to?
Once I arrived at work, I realized that I needed some pick me ups to make it through the day.
Pick me up # 1 – Chik-fil-a chicken biscuit and hash browns. Nothing like a good ol' Southern breakfast to get your day going right.
Pick me up # 2 – Knock off Airborne, aka Wal-Born. Seriously Wallgreens, couldn't you have come up with a better name?
Pick me up # 3 – Knock off Sudafed Sinus Headache meds. When you feel like your head is in a vice, you need immediate relief.
Pick me up # 4 – Honey Herb Ricola. You've got to get the real thing sometimes.
Pick me up # 5 – Even though I just ate lunch, I've decided that I need a Starbucks Gingerbread Latte (and maybe a delish baked treat). It's toasty goodness will warm me right up from the inside out, especially since I'm shivering and it's 63 degrees outside. <—not a promising sign

Welcome to TonySuits, the world's most popular jumpsuit manufacturer. We've been making jumpsuits for skydivers, wingsuiters and trackers for more than 30 years.
Here, we'll tell you more about our history, our processes, our team and why we're the number one choice for skydivers across the globe.
We've been outfitting jumpers just like you to become legends for over 30 years.
Tony Uragallo founded TonySuits in 1976. Originally a small producer, we've grown over the years. Tony now employs a team of more than 20 individuals who specialise in the design, fitting and manufacturing process.
In addition to Tony's 30 years of manufacturing experience, he also draws on his more than 40 years of skydiving and wingsuiting experience when designing products.
Our team prides itself in helping to create the most successful jumpsuit business in the world. Thanks to their skill and dedication, TonySuits has gained a reputation for providing the industry's best service and highest quality products.
No one knows skydiving better than you, the people who jump! We support a number of skydiving athletes and teams who are ambassadors for our brand and who provide us feedback to help us improve our designs.
TonySuits is the world's most popular jumpsuit manufacturer. We're the number one choice for skydivers across the globe. You can read exactly what our customers have to say over on our reviews page:
Tony and the team are dedicated to innovation and we've worked hard over the years to push the boundaries of possibility within suit design. We believe that your jumpsuit is one of the most important investments you can make as a skydiver.
During the 1990s, Tony supported legendary French skydiver Patrick de Gayardon with suits for his revolutionary ram air "bat man" suits. In the following years, Tony experimented with his own wingsuit designs and in 2006, launched the Z-wing range.
We also work extensively with flat flyers and trackers to better understand their needs. Our range has evolved as skydiving has, with new booties, new shapes, new materials and much more making our suits the very best, whatever your chosen discipline.
TonySuits has the most active research and development program in the industry. Our factory is located right next to Skydive City Dropzone in Florida allowing us to quickly and easily test jump our products.
Supporting Tony is a team of experienced test pilots who use his suits for skydiving, BASE jumping, competitions and filming projects.
"Welcome to TonySuits" is the first thing you'll hear as you walk through the front door of our production facility in Zephyrhills Florida.
In our showroom, you'll find all sorts of great skydiving clothing and accessories from jumpsuits to patch pants, hats, and T-Shirts.
Anyone is welcome to turn up for a personal fitting, a browse through our well-stocked showroom or just a quick tour of where the suits are made.
We've been utilizing a computerized cutting table since 2001, enabling us to fit our patterns to your body size exactly and allowing us to reproduce the exact same suit 2 years later if you wish.
We've built our online store to be as easy as possible for you to navigate. You can browse our full range of products and place your order online. If you'd like to speak to with someone about your order, you can contact us and a member of our team will be happy to help.
It's been years since I've ordered a new suit, many years actually. As much as I've always loved Tony suits, this is the best one I've ever had. For starters it fit perfectly right out of the box. I didn't ask or need to change a stitch on it. As far as flying, on the first jump it already felt like an extension of my body, didn't have to "get used to it" at all. Love the Pit Special! And it's built so well I don't think I'll have to order another one for many more years!! Thanks Tony!

text: Bass Sturgeon Bay Bass Open Starts Today Matt Straw May 18th, 2012 | More From Matt Straw Share0 Tweet Email Share on Facebook.Share on Twitter.Share on Google+ The Sturgeon Bay Bass Open starts today. It's one of the largest pure smallmouth tournaments in the world. If not the very largest. Every year it attracts hundreds of competitors, set as it is in beautiful Door County, Wisconsin. Surrounded by Lake Michigan, Door County harbors some of the most exemplary smallmouth fishing anywhere. A participant boating 50 or more averaging 3 pounds or better—per day—is common. But a 3-pound average, in this tournament, is chump change. Last year fish of 6 and 7 pounds were weighed in. You need to average 4 pounds or better both days just to be a player in the SBO. SBO created some of the most vivid smallmouth memories of my life. My partner in crime, Captain Tim Dawidiuk, fished the two-day event with me for 10 years. We won the tournament in our first attempt—in 1998. We finished third in 2003, and overall I believe we posted five top-10 finishes, cashing a check in all but one of those ten events. !–nextpage– Every smallmouth angler should visit this micropterus Mecca. The water is like air, the smallmouths 25 feet deep look like exotic birds flying through nothing. The surroundings are spectacular, with archipelagos of islands stretching out into Green Bay and beyond. (Sounds like something Buzz Lightbeer would say. "To Green Bay and beyond!") Almost every day in practice and during the tournament we popped walleyes in the 4- to 10-pound neighborhood (nice neighborhood to be in). Sometimes a big brown trout would rip into one of our suspending baits—and we had to take the time to land it because we needed every bait we could possibly keep in the boat, with all those big toothies swimming around. Dawidiuk had many multiple 20-pound-plus-pike days while guiding around the Door. And tournament contestants worked their way through the crowd many times at weigh ins to show me digital shots of muskies over 50 inches they brought in with smallmouth tackle. This smallmouth, however, was caught by accident yesterday while fishing with famous guide, Tony Roach in Minnesota. But it's A/ representative of the average size bass we caught most days in the waters surrounding Sturgeon Bay—in that 4-pound neighborhood, and B/ it was caught using the same method that worked so well for us in the SBO for all those years—slowly swimming plastics on light jigs with light, 4- and 5-pound monofilament lines. Colors and styles may vary, but the technique is exactly the same—a slow, do-nothing swim somewhere between bottom and half way to the surface. When the water's like air, smallmouths will rise 5, 8, even 10 feet to hit plastics moving at the right speed. Out on northern Green Bay, we often watched smallies rise slowly and strike the bait—a real nerve bender. Memory candy. Those were special years, fishing in the SBO. Many of the competitors are good friends. Good luck to all this week. Just remember—you can win the SBO, but you can't lose it.

What if the very act of communication – some expression of love, a heated debate or a simple, passing conversation – were, in itself, a virus? What if the average, everyday exercise of talking became... somehow... in some way... infected? Words like blood cells – mutated, twisted – traveling through the arteries and veins of our day-to-day discourse. Madness in "hello," terror in "tomorrow." What if we did not know what languages, what phrases, carried the sickness? Nouns, like weapons; verbs, like cancer. What if the unavoidable process of understanding could make us violent, make us strange?
How do does one un-learn a word?
Bruce McDonald's brilliant thriller Pontypool bares the distinction of being both the smartest and most oddly-titled horror film we've seen so far this year. Adapted by writer Tony Burgess from his novel Pontypool Changes Everything, the movie is deceptively simple, taking the most basic of premises – an apparent "zombie" outbreak as reported by three people trapped in a morning-news radio booth – and through a series of bizarre and terrifying reveals, shows it to be something infinitely more unnerving. Make no mistake, Pontypool is a thinking-man's horror film and if your preference within the genre is fast-paced gore, you'd do best to look elsewhere. But if you're of the belief that being truly disturbed is the benchmark of great, sleepless filmmaking – that horror is both a feeling and a place where ideas can be examined and dissected and corrupted – then Pontypool should absolutely be on your radar.
CLICK HERE to read the full review of Pontypool .
Score: 7 out of 10
Video and Presentation
Pontypool is shot almost entirely in a single location with an oblique and rather minimal color palette. Despite this fact, the DVD offers a surprisingly sharp image, free of any excessive grain or noteworthy instances of artificating. It's certainly not a bright or colorful film, so little can be said about the vividness of the transfer, but there's little here to take anything away from the dreary claustrophobia of a besieged radio station.
Score: 8 out of 10
Languages and Audio
A large portion of the tension built throughout Pontypool is attributable to some first-rate audio work that is ultimately as subtle as it is effective. The way in which the film uses that deep, bass-heavy radio microphone to pick up Grant Mazzy's deep and bass-heavy voice absolutely pulls the reader into the film's events as they are told to us by an increasingly terrified talk-show host. It might not be about cars exploding or 5.1 gunfights blaring from channel to channel, but the simplicity of a well honed mix in order to heighten the mood is key to whether Pontypool works. And, oh, does it work…
Score: 10 out of 10
Packaging and Extras
The DVD comes with a small handful of very compelling extras. There is a commentary on the disc with writer Tony Burgess and director Bruce MacDonald, but what elevates their conversation beyond other commentaries is that the pair essentially conducts a script meeting for the planned sequels, Pontypool Changes and Pontypool Changes Everything. They're far less concerned about going through the motions of regurgitating the movie currently replaying on-screen than they are in talking about the evolution of the ideas presented throughout the film. It's a fun, engaging and insightful commentary – not to mention informative in case the other films never get made.
Lastly, there are three unrelated short films included on the disc. None of the trio bear any real connection to Pontypool with the exception that the best of them, a ten-minute piece about the death of jazz musician Chet Baker, also stars Stephen McHattie. This is a moody and shockingly effective offering, an odd inclusion next to the other two shorts – "Eve" and "Dada Dum." These two are hugely surreal and massively expressionistic art pieces intended to severely creep you the hell out. And they do. If nothing else, they're worth watching as mood pieces.
And despite not having a ton of content, these three shorts and one very interesting commentary make for a completely worthwhile set of extras.
Score: 8 out of 10
The Bottom Line
A smart, terrifying, well made horror film hits home with an equally well-made DVD.

The transept windows present a very similar composition. First of all, as in the East window, Christ in Majesty appears as the central figure, but in this case He is framed by the type of gothic canopy that was so common in the Middle Ages and also in Victorian times.
The Transfiguration window, in the South transept, depicts Christ in the central lancet, while the side lancets depict Moses, Elijah, Peter, John and James as donors, all crowned by a gothic canopy sheltering angels. In the lower part of the window we can read "And there came a voice out of a cloud saying This is my beloved Son".
