Pendl Nassau County Firefighters Museum August 9 was a grand day for firefighters and their families as a groundbreaking ceremony was held for the Francis X. Pendl Nassau County Firefighters Museum. This museum started out as a dream of several senior members of the County's volunteer fire service, all of whom shared a common desire to preserve the rich history of the County's volunteer firefighters as well as to pay homage to the dedication and selflessness that these brave volunteers possess. This facility will also serve as afire safety education facility for the general public. It was truly fitting that this wonderful facility bears the name of Francis X. Pendl as he not only was at the center of the efforts to build a museum but also was a 50- year active member and Ex- Chief of the Bethpage Fire Department. Pendl was also an Assistant Chief Instructor at the Fire Service Academy in Old Bethpage and a Nassau County Fire Marshal. There perhaps was no better man to embody the spirit and dedication of firefighters everywhere. Sadly, Frank Pendl passed away on April I, 2004 just a few months shy of seeing his dream of a Firefighter's Museum and Education Center become a reality. It is in his honor and in his spirit that this new facility will be dedicated. Dignitaries from all across Nassau County were on hand to Habitat For Humanity The life teen program from St. Martins in Bethpage, volunteered their time and effort, by spending a week in Portland, Maine. Under the supervision of Father Paul a group of our life teens performed physical labor, working with the Habitat for Humanity. Chores included working on houses in various stages of construction, including painting, spackling, and constructing foundations for underprivileged families. Everyone claimed it " Felt good to do something for other people." Our community should feel proud that our youth programs give opportunities to our children to reach out and share these gifts. Pictured from left to right: Rear: Father Paul, Michelle D'Dominico, Antoinette Mintz, Sara Ceglio, Martina Sinisi, Jessica Crofton, Joseph Osicki, Danielle Asher, Nicole Stadniki. participate in this important event, as the County was pleased to be able to provide the Francis X. Pendl Firefighter Museum and Education Center with a grant which will be applied to the initial construction costs of the 4500 square foot facility, which will be located in a former aircraft hangar on the grounds of Museum Row in Uniondale. 111 am extremely happy that this wonderful dream is now becoming a reality for all our firefighters and for the entire Pendl family, " said Angelo Catalano, Chairman of the Board of Firefighters Museum and Education Center. " The community of Bethpage is especially honored and proud to Nassau County Legislator Ed Mangano poses with Mary Jane Pendl, the wife of the late Francis X. Pendl, and Angelo Catalano, Chairman of the Firefighter's Museum and Education Center as they take part in the official groundbreaking ceremony for the Francis X.

Members of the Pendl family pose with Nassau County Executive Tom Suozzi at the groundbreaking ceremony on August 9. have this state of the art facility dedicated to a man that so many knew and loved and a family that have long been true friends to the community of Bethpage and firefighters everywhere. Frank Pendl was and continues to be an inspiration to so many and as his dream becomes a reality his family should take great pride in knowing that his dedication, service and his character will never be forgotten, " said Legislator Edward Mangano.

Butehorn Bros. VFW Post 4987 Bud Rosch When the Liberator B24 aircraft first was used, the plane was a " D" model and had not had certain gun turrets installed, such as the underneath ball turret. The German flyers found that this was an easy way for them to kill a B24 Liberator by attacking from underneath where there was no protection and very little risk to them. Unfortunately many B24' s were destroyed this way. With revisions in engineering the ball turret was placed in the underneath " belly" of the airplane. The men who flew these bombers had to put up with 40 to 60 degree below zero temperature, and no matter what was coming at them fly into it once the bombardier had control of the plane in lining up the target, also periods on oxygen for as much as eight hours, cannon fire of antiaircraft guns exploding all over the skies around them and of course enemy fighter planes. Now with the installation of the ball turret a small statu red man was picked as the amount of room in this turret was limited and an individual such as this was needed for the position. Now we have a new problem with the installation of this turret. The man must have an extra helping of his Lord's given courage. The man had to enter by the one opening and if a fighter plane's bullets or shrapnel from antiaircraft artillery should hit the geared type ring of the turret, making it impossible to put the ball into the proper position for exiting or hydraulically lifting the ball back into the plane this could be a death sentence for the ball turret flyer. To land this plane the ball turret must be retracted into the plane. In the case that the hydraulics of the plane was hit by gun fire and out of order... now the plane and its crew had a terrible problem! Landing gear works on hydraulics among other things very necessary in flying one of these four engined bombers. In the case that the pilot cannot get the landing gear down the only thing he can do is crash land the warplane. This means coming in for a landing and sliding the undercarriage of the plane on the runway. Now if the turret cannot be raised to its proper • level of storage inside the plane the ball gunner is a non survivor as he would get crushed in the landing. Very unfortunately this has occurred on a number of occasions. True on these planes there was a fail safe system, which is a manual hand crank to lower the wheels. The writer can say from experience that the manual crank won't work either where the action was of such that the aircraft was damaged greatly. I myself never experienced a landing such as this, but Rooney of the Sixty Minutes television show said he saw this terrible thing happen. There was nothing left to do, the plane was running out of fuel, and it was sacrificing one man and trying to save the rest of the crew. There was no choices given in the situation. Now when the first model came with the ball turret ( I think it was an " E" model) the Germans did not know that these two fifty caliber machine guns were there. They went to attack the " soft belly" of the plane as usual. The ball gunners came back to the base and report they downed as many as seven ( 7) enemy aircraft. The Germans went right into those two 50 caliber machine guns and the ball gunners. Yes they had a " ball!" They reported a vast number of kills, one ball gunner after another. Of course the Germans became knowledgeable about this quickly!... Yes, the men that flew the ball turret were maybe small in stature but were made of all " heart."

Huge Success oo C\ J IT) C\ J CO 13 c » < LJJ z: Z> CQ DC h - LU O < Q_ X h- LU CQ LU X h- * GO LU CD By Linda Mangano This year's Chamber of Commerce Summer Festival could only be described with one word HOT! And boy was it HOT - in every meaning of the word. Friday, August 12 started out with oppressive temperatures and as Chandler members gathered in the Train Station parking lot to set up their booths temperatures hit the 98- degree mark. In spite of the scorching heat, 6pm rolled around and the festival was off to a rousing start with a record crowd attending the opening day. Morgan Essig started off the 2- day festival with her perfect and spirited version of the National Anthem and then tlie fun began. Families came out in droves to partake in the yummy food, sample the Chamber's vendor booths and above all hit the rides and games. Things couldn't have been better until about 9: 45 when the skies became filled with ominous lightning and thunder could be heard over the laughter and cheers of the crowd and the fabulous music provided by EXCALIBUR DJ. Before we knew it the larger rides were shut down, the skies opened up and the festival cleared out about an hour earlier than usual. And if you though Friday was hot, well Saturday, August 13 was even hotter as forecasters said the heat index would reach over the 105- degree mark. But nonetheless, residents wouldn ' t let a little heat stand in the way of a good time and so once again the doors opened at 6pm and the festival grounds quickly filled up with thousand of people. Many folks came out to see the fantastic fireworks display which was provided to the chamber of commerce by BAY FIREWORKS and let's just say no one could have been disappointed. The fireworks were different than in years past and lit up the skies as oidx Bay FIREWORKS can do. The Chamber of Commerce is extremely grateful to this year's festival sponsors- the Bethpage Federal Credit Union, Northrop Grumman Corporation, Cablevision, Bank of New York, BK Sweeney's and King Kullen Supermarkets and HomeStar Financial. Te generosity of these corporations makes this festival possible year after year and we appreciate their dedication to the Chamber of Commerce as well as to the community of Bethpage. Newton Amusements once again provided safe and fabulous rides this year and the Chamber was thrilled to offer bumper cars for the very first time. The Chamber also wants to acknowledge the help of the Nassau County Police Department, the Nassau County Bomb Squad, the Town of Oyster Bay Department of Public Works and the Bethpage Fire Department for their help and participation in the festival. Special thanks to Cablevision Corporation for donating METS tickets, which were raffled off during the evening. And while this event takes so much time, energy and money to host, one might ask themselves is it worth it. Well after spending a night in the ticket booth I can personally tell you it is absolutely worth every bit of blood sweat and tears that is put into it. The faces and looks of excitement on the faces of so many children were heartwarming to see. And so many children expressed that they wait all year for their festival. THEIR festival. This festival is something the community of Bethpage should take great pride in because it is ours. It is all of ours. And it is not just the great food, fun rides and games that make it so special. It is the residents who come out year after year. In hot weather, in rain and in chilly temperatures to support the Chamber of Commerce, to support their town and to be with their fellow residents. That is what makes the Bethpage Chamber of Commerce Festival HOT and PRICELESS! Chamber Festival sponsors and friends at the Bethpage Federal Credit Union Plainedge parents held raffles to help restore sports to their district. Morgan Essig sang a fabulous rendition of the National Anthem. Helen Razenson, the real mastermind behind unique Impressions poses with her husband Charlie.

Please note letters appearing in " Your 37 Cents" are the opinions of the authors and do not reflect the opinions of this newspaper. Letters must be signed but names can be witheld when requested. Dear Editor: I would like to take this opportunity to respond to Mrs. Miller's letter. Mrs. Miller implies that after the budget failed the Board chose specific cuts to teach parents a lesson. She evidently did not attend any of the budget meetings and coffee hours from January to May, where it was identified from the outset of these public discussions that the outer two rings of programs would have to be cut if the budget failed. This information was also on the webpage in both the budget articles and in the Board meeting minutes, therefore this should have been no surprise to anyone. As far as listening to the community, that is exactly what the Board did when they decided to put the same budget back up to the voters. Mrs. Miller can reference the meeting minutes of May 25th on the webpage which reflect that after an hour of pleading by the residents in attendance not to cut any programs and services, the Board voted 7- 0 to present the same budget. The Board provides many forums all year long for residents to take an active role and give input into the decisions that affect the school district via board meetings, coffee hours and budget meetings, as well as being available by phone or e- mail. If residents want to be assured that their concerns are addressed or their suggestions are considered, then they need to show up before the budget vote, not after. All sports and clubs have not been cut. The list of the final cuts that were made was announced at the July 13th meeting ( which was held in the HS cafeteria) and is posted on the district webpage. In comparison to Farmingdale, their per- pupil expenditure is $ 15,364.00 vs. our $ 12,823.00 per pupil. Take the difference of $ 2,541.00 and multiply that by 3,600 students, and you see that they have $ 9,147,600.00 more dollars to spend than we do, making contingency a very different scenario in their case. Mrs. Miller also takes issue with the Superintendent's salary and the number of administrators working for him. These issues have not been " swept under the carpet" as she suggests, but addressed at public meetings, and information e- mailed to those residents who could not attend but took the time to contact us with their questions or concerns. For Mrs. Miller's benefit, since she did neither, I will provide the information once again. The current Superintendent is evaluated annually based on very specific criteria in seven categories of performance. His salary increase is based on his OHieStar FINANCIAL Refinance o Purchases No Income Check Fast Closing Debt Consolidation Cash Out Good/ Bad Credit Home Improvement Lower Your Monthly Payment 326 Broadway, Bethpage NY 11714 ( 516) 933- 7778 Website: www. HomeStarFinancialNY. com Registered Mortgage Broker • NYS Banking Department Loans Arranged Through 3rd Party Lenders achievement in these areas according to the goals the Board sets at the beginning of each year. This Superintendent has effected the changes in curriculum, program offerings, technology, hiring and evaluation of faculty and staff, professional development, relationships between administration and faculty, facility improvements, etc. that have enabled our students to achieve at higher levels, earning Plainedge the distinction for the first time of being in the top ten performing L. I. school districts. He is paid well because he has and continues to accomplish what his predecessors have been unable to, and our children are the ones who have reaped the benefit. The return on our investment this year alone has been a record $ 1.8 million in scholarships to students, two semi- finalists and one finalist in the Intel Competition, a first place win in the L. I. First Robotics Competition, and a host of other awards too numerous to mention here but also posted on the district webpage for residents who are so inclined to check Plainedge's impressive record of academic performance. In comparison, Dr. Clint Barter left the district ten years ago in 1995 earning an annual salary with benefits of $ 254,000.00, and his negotiated 8% annual increase had nothing to do with the academic performance of our students, nor was it based on any criteria whatsoever. In addition, the former Board and administration entered into an insurance- based retirement incentive whose legality is questionable, which was never properly funded, and which they borrowed against in order to balance the budget. If the current Board and Superintendent had not requested that this retirement " plan" be audited in July of 2000 and subsequently terminated, Plainedge taxpayers would be facing a crippling $ 9,000,000.00 debt. If Mrs. Miller so chooses, she can verify all of this information with her preferred source, Ralph Raymond, who is one of the seven Board members who acknowledges Dr. Richman's contributions to the district, and unanimously approved the Superintendent's annual salary increases. ( And who also approved all the programs listed in the two outer rings and voted to present the same budget on June 20th.) Although Mrs. Miller might give " hats off" to Ralph Raymond, I would venture to guess that there are many people who are aware of the School Board Member Code of Conduct Exhibit that all Board members sign at the beginning of the year which states among other things, " Remember that my first and foremost responsibility is the educational welfare of the district students, and focus my efforts on that mission instead of my personal goals," and who are now questioning Mr. Raymond's change of commitment from education to sports. The Board has already decreased the number of administrators from 24 to 18 in the last few years - we currently have 6 less for 1,000 more students enrolled. Our ratio of supervision district wide is 1: 26 that does not consider that the same supervisors are also responsible for the 3612 students in the district. In the area of central administration we rank in the bottom 25% among comparable districts. There is an organization chart posted on the district webpage which reflects the following administrative staff: 5 Principals, 2 Assistant Principals at the HS ( there used to be four), 2 Assistant Principals at the Middle School, 3 Directors, two of which are mandated by NYS ( there used to be 5), 1 Superintendent who oversees all district operations, 1 Deputy Superintendent in charge of all business office functions, 1 Assistant for secondary education to whom all Directors and Principals report, 1 Assistant for elementary education who coordinates all staff training and teacher evaluation, ( both of these assistants are also responsible for curriculum), 1 Supervisor of Buildings, Maintenance & Grounds ( downgraded from an Administrative Assistant position), and 1 Chief Information Officer in charge of all technology. Note that we do not have any Department Chairpersons or Directors of Curriculum, which most every other district has, making Plainedge very lean in comparison. The personnel listed above have very distinct and separate responsibilities that must get done. Their job descriptions were posted on the webpage last year in response to the community's request to gain a better understanding and appreciation of the role each one plays in accomplishing the Board's goals and objectives. As far as my comments made at the June 27th meeting, no assumptions on my part were made. My facts came from the flyers and e- mails signed by these people that were circulated throughout the community and distributed at the senior citizen club, from the sign that was posted inside the front window of the public library, and from the comments they made to residents publicly on the fields and at the schools. The Board President's job duties do not include censoring Board members, who are also residents and taxpayers, from speaking about budget or district issues. Lastly, the majority of the community does not share Mrs. Miller's opinion of my contribution as a Board member. I am one of only two people in recent Plainedge history that has run and been elected multiple times unopposed. I did not serve 9 years to win a popularity contest; I served to bring the primary focus of this school district back to education. Watching our students receive their scholarships at the Scholastic Award dinner and accept their diplomas at H. S. Graduation every year is the only " hats off" I have ever needed. I strongly urge Mrs. Miller to try to become part of the solution and join the other disappointed residents who have signed up to fight Albany for our fair share of state aid to fund education, and who have vowed never to have another budget defeated in Plainedge. Ellen Ryder School Board Trustee 1996- 2005 Harry Chapin Tribute In July of 1981, singer-songwriter- activist Harry Chapin died in an auto accident, on the way to perform at Eisenhower Park. On Monday evening, August 29, several of Long Island's top singer-songwriters will come together, at the theatre that now bears his name, to give the concert Harry Chapin intended, announced Nassau County Executive Thomas R.

The Long Island Music Hall of Frame organization will make a special, posthumous presentation of a lifetime achievement award to Chapin at the concert, and the Folk Music Society of Huntington will make a presentation including a donation to World Hunger Year.

Cellar/Tasting Notes "A beautiful effort, the 2009 Pichon Lalande, a blend of 75% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot and 5% Petit Verdot, possesses copious mocha, lead pencil, unsmoked, high class tobacco, black currant, forest floor and herbaceous characteristics. It is a deep purple-hued, charming, surprisingly open-knit..
Cellar/Tasting Notes RP: "The blockbuster 2003 Haut-Brion (13% alcohol) possesses extremely high tannin, but that component is well-concealed by a cascade of mulberry, blackberry, cherry, and plum-like fruit. There is even a hint of figs under the blue and red fruit spectrum. While broad and ripe with a sweet, glyceral..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "This is not a big Château Margaux, its style showing more elegance and discretion. The tannins are soft, although producing a dense web that lies underneath the black currant and plum fruit flavors. It is a wine that envelops the mouth, an edge of firmness over velvet fruit textures. The wine..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "The elegant 2007 Chateau Margaux's purity, depth of fruit, and overall equilibrium are impressive. A dark ruby/purple color is accompanied by notes of spring flowers, black currants, and blackberries, a soft, lush, medium to full-bodied mouthfeel, and delicacy allied to impressive depth,..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "... among the first-growths, this wine is showing surprising forwardness and complexity in its aromatics. It possesses an exuberant, flamboyant bouquet of roasted coffee, cassis, smoky oak, and soy sauce. The impressive 1996 Mouton-Rothschild offers impressive aromas of black currants, framboise,..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "... elegance as well as unreal concentration. Classic lead pencil, cassis, kirsch, cedar, and spice characteristics are abundant in both the nose and full-bodied flavors ..."
Cellar/Tasting Notes The 2006 Latour performed even better from bottle than from barrel. Only 38% of the production (10,000 cases) made it into the grand vin, a blend of 86% Cabernet Sauvignon and the rest primarily Merlot and a small amount of Cabernet Franc. From barrel, I thought it was a modern day version of the..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "...this is one of the wines of the vintage and (along with Pavie) among the finest wines from the Right Bank. It possesses a deep purple color as well as a gorgeous nose of creme de cassis, blackberries, wet stones, and wonderfully perfumed floral notes. When the wine hits the palate, it exhibits..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "A luscious Lafite that is silky and elegant with layers of wonderful violet, berry, cherry and chocolate flavors. It's full-bodied, with racy, refined tannins and good length."
Cellar/Tasting Notes "The brilliant 2006 Cheval Blanc performed better from bottle than from barrel. A blend of equal parts Cabernet Franc and Merlot grown in a superb vineyard site facing La Conseillante and l'Evangile at the very edge of the sandy, gravelly soils of St.-Emilion, it boasts a dense ruby/purple color as..

Jewelry by Material
About Handcrafted Jewelry
Tips and Resources
Men and women have adorned themselves with jewelry since long before the age of reason! Garlands of flowers, bracelets of woven grass, shells, and stone; such were the first decorations to beautify the human body.
We may have been wearing jewelry as far back as 75,000 years ago - 30,000 years earlier than previously believed - according to a recent report by National Geographic News. Over the millennia, jewelry styles and materials have evolved in step with the advances of civilization. From the Stone Age to the Bronze Age, from the Iron Age to the Industrial Revolution (and seemingly back again!), jewelry styles have transformed, modernized, and then often returned to their most basic forms and essential elements.

Aside from being one of the most known tag teams of all time, the British Bulldogs were cousins. Dynamite Kid's father was the brother of Davey Boy Smith's mother.
There are talks that TNA will be taking the tag team championship from Robbie E and Jessie Godderz soon. The feud involving Christopher Daniels, Frankie Kazarian, Eddie Edwards and Davey Richards is supposed to take center stage, and the belts will more than likely be used in that program.
Wrestle-1, the new promotion founded by the Great Muta, is about to get an influx of talent from TNA for an upcoming live event in March. Austin Aries, Abyss, Bobby Roode, Brutus Magnus, Christopher Daniels, Davey Richards, Eddie Edwards, Frankie Kazarian, Gail Kim, Madison Rayne and Samoa Joe have been confirmed for the trip.
Since Christopher Daniels and Frankie Kazarian have wrestled all over the world, it makes sense for them to have friends overseas. Bad Influence is currently in Europe right now, and they decided to meet up with Prince Devitt for a couple of drinks.
TNA had originally planned on giving Davey Richards and Eddie Edwards an immediate championship push, but management opted against taking the belts away from Robbie E and Jesse Godderz, so the American Wolves will be working with Christopher Daniels and Frankie Kazarian instead.

Development in long-range travel and the growing importance of the Arctic and Antarctic regions make it necessary to understand how maps may be misleading. Experiments with a grapefruit illustrate the difficulty of presenting a true picture of the world on a flat surface and it is concluded that the globe is the most accurate way of representing the earth.

Stakeholders, who needs them? Well, me! I need them, and if you do too I have some advice for you about how to survive the more difficult relationships.
To give some context, I recently found myself having a debate with a friend over the way in which people commicate with one another.
"It's what you say," she said, pointedly. "That's all that matters."
I was disagreeing with her wholeheartedly because I've learned that it's not just what you say, but also very much the way that you say it as well.
You see, in my job, I believe you not only need to communicate truthfully, but also effectively. It's pointless making rubbish up and then 'selling' it to someone.

Following a Forbes piece in which a teacher proclaims he avoids turning a computer on during class time, and that face-to-face is key I thought I'd explain why all that is wrong.
Below are five examples of technology or digital in the classroom that really make life easier for both the teacher and student.

When it comes to generating donations we all know that there is more to digital fundraising than simply broadcasting to your supporters.
It's important to understand who the audience is, whether they likely to convert into volunteers and/or financial supporters and what the best method is of communicating with each stakeholder group to get the best return on resources.

We had a hunch that word choice in email subject lines have a strong effect on response rates. So, we tested 287 keywords across a sample of 2.2bn emails to see which work, and which don't.
Why? Because President Obama has done more for email marketing than any world leader in the history of mankind. How? By focusing on subject line testing, his digital team optimised their donation campaigns to generate hundreds of millions of dollars online.
Despite Obama's best efforts, most marketers still view email marketing as the Bluth Company's Banana Stand of Arrested Development fame: a more boring and less sexy marketing channel than pretty much anything else imaginable.
But – and never forget this – there's always money in the banana stand! There is great power in optimising subject lines.
In case you missed my presentations at MarketingWeekLive last week, you can find out more about our findings after the jump.

Australian consumers buy more from retailers with loyalty programs, and are more likely to choose a brand with a loyalty program, but this doesn't mean they will be more loyal, according to a new report.
The For love or money? 2013 consumer study into Australian loyalty programs report, commissioned by strategic marketing company Directivity and digital agency Citrus, surveyed over 1,000 consumers in February 2013 to see how Australians feel towards loyalty programs.
And, the findings highlighted that while loyalty programs definitely influence buyer behaviour, they don't always equal customer loyalty.

A new report has revealed that Australian Twitter users follow brands in order to keep up to date with new products, rather than score freebies or discounts.
ExactTarget's 2013 Executive Summary collates the results from surveying 8,276 consumers across Australia, Brazil, France, Germany and the UK, and looks at the motivations behind why and how users interact with brands online.

It seems Australian consumers are losing patience with targeted, yet unwanted, marketing and advertising, both online and off.
A new government report has found that 1 in 2 consumers received an uninvited telemarketing call in the past six months, and a further 9 in 10 consumers said these telemarketing calls were a problem.

Some of Australia's biggest retailers have recently spoken out at a conference in Melbourne saying that while selling online has the benefit of lower overheads, it is not yet as profitable as traditional bricks-and-mortar retailing.

"Our invites were personalized to match our colours (navy). They turned out amazing and we also customized with a picture on the back as well. The quality of the paper and printing was amazing. Very happy with shipping, as it arrived to Canada very quickly. We are in the process of ordering our Thank you cards now. Thanks for all your help :)"
"The quality of the invites were better than expected. They look very high end. We ordered all of the accessories and will now be ordering our programs. Don't hesitate they are beautiful!"
"I got this invitation for my wedding in the grey, with the ticket corners, and pearl shimmer finish. The invitations looks so expensive and I am already getting compliments on them. Would def recommend."
"After looking at samples from a number of different companies I decided to order my wedding invitations from Wedding Paper Divas and I'm really glad I did! I submitted my artwork and within 2 days they had a digital proof for me to look at. I even received a phone call to let me know it had been sent. At this time I decided to make a quick change and they had a new proof to me within the hour. I was expecting to wait a couple weeks before receiving them but within 2 days of approving my final artwork they were already at my door! They look great, feel great and I'm so excited to send them out! Thank you for your excellent customer service!! I will highly recommend you to anyone I know that needs invitations and will be sure to come to you again when I need anything else!"
"The colors I picked turned out great (blush and grey) The invites are beautiful! Its SO worth the extra 10 cents to add the shine to them. They have a hint of shimmer and glitter. Im in love. I cant wait to send them out."
