Bremen Public Schools Superintendent Russ Mikel formally announced his retirement during the Bremen Public Schools board of trustees regular meeting Tuesday, February 18. Snow canceled classes that day, but the board meeting went ahead as scheduled. "I'd like to thank the board, staff, students and parents for the years," Mr. Mikel announced. "I plan to continue with my duties through June 30th." Mikel spent nine years serving on the board of school trustees. He plans to stay in the local area. The board agreed to wait until a
BREMEN — Local Bremen resident, Craig Lemons continues to grow in the acting industry as he prepares for next month's Indiana premier of the movie "Sand Castles."
BREMEN — In the Bremen's Wastewater treatment plant pretreatment program, it was noted that the 2013 testing for Bremen Castings found the company to be in "Significant Non-Compliance" for the third and fourth quarter of the year. A notice was issued to the local paper in regards to the situation, as is required by law.
BREMEN — There will be a Red Cross Blood Drive from 5:30 p.m. Wednesday, Feb. 12 at St. Isidore's Hall, 803 W. Bike St., Bremen. The theme if this drive is "Helping Save Lives is Always in Season. Give Blood This Winter." There is an urgent need for Blood Donors. Due to the severe weather experienced this past month nearly 600 American Red Cross Blood Drives in 26 states had to be cancelled. This resulted in a shortfall of some 20,000 units of blood and platelet donations.
BREMEN — Sara Slabaugh was named the Distinguished Young Woman for Bremen this year. Unfortunately, she won't be attending the state competition in March due to basketball conflicts. "A couple weeks after that, I found out about the state sectionals and I'm the captain," she explained. "We had to call over to the national people and ask what to do with the scholarship money and where it would go." Instead, competing at the state competition this year for Bremen will be Bay Cope. "I was sad that Sara didn't get to go and take this opportunity, but I'm also excited to go," Cope said.

Pedia-Lax Glycerin Suppositories (glycerin) for Constipation: My baby is 4 months old and did not have a bowl movement for about a week. She had a few pebbles come out and she was screaming in so much pain. I used this medicine for her. The pharmacist told me to run it under water and use half of it, I still used a little less. It worked really good. She was pooping in 1 hour and it just really helped soften it up so she can get it out. Great product, my sister told me about it. Vary happy I found this and it helped my baby girl.

glycerin for Constipation: I used to have incomplete bowel movements. Glycerin suppositories are gentle and safe. My doctor says they are safer than anything oral, perhaps with the exception of prunes or prune juice.

Recipe by Denyse
"The very best slaw I ever had...sweet and crunchy! You can also substitute pineapple tidbits or chunks of fresh pineapple, if you wish."
Watch video tips and tricks
1 medium head green cabbage, rinsed and very thinly sliced
1 large carrot, shredded
1 (15 ounce) can crushed pineapple, drained
1 cup mayonnaise
1 teaspoon salt
This is a fun and pretty salad for a hot summer night's dinner. I added a little more mayo because it didn't look like enough... but BEWARE! When it chills, it "creates" more liquid. I had to drain it. I should've followed the recipe exactly! I would definitely make it again.
Well, it was quick and easy i'll give you that much but I didn't care for it that much and my kids didn't like it one bit! It sat in our fridge forever! I won't make this recipe again unless my step-mom is coming for a visit!
72 Ratings
I added about a tablespoon of finely minced sweet onion to this recipe and it was very tasty. I agree with the other readers, though, that it lacked something. I think maybe a teaspoon of lemon juice would add a little zip.
This was the best! I am a cole slaw lover and will definitely add to my recipe box!
My husband and I love this cole slaw. However, my 6 year old did not care for it. We are from the South where everything has mayo or gravy in it and I just knew he would love it. Will make again and again for me and my husband. Who knows, the next time my 6 year old may like it!
Quick easy and to good to wait an hour. :)
I was excited to try this but it came out too mayo-flavored for me. I thought I'd never make it again but I think the idea's great and I might just fuss around with quantities.
I liked it because it was simple. I added 3 Tbls f sugar to cut down on the kick.

The long-term lawmaker's condition is rapidly deteriorating.
Rep. Donald Payne was flown from Washington, D.C. to New Jersey on a medical transport plane Friday, less than a month after he disclosed that he had been diagnosed with colon cancer.
Before Payne, 77, announced he was battling with the disease, his diminishing frame made it evident that he was dealing with some sort of illness. But when he confirmed the suspicion, the 24-year Capitol Hill veteran said that his doctors expected him to make a full recovery and that he planned to run for re-election this year.
This week, however, his condition took a sudden turn for the worse and the outlook, a Democratic aide told BET.com, is "not good." Members of the New Jersey delegation have been advised to visit their colleague as soon as possible before his condition further deteriorates.
"We're still a bit optimistic, but I mean, you know, it is what it is. It's cancer," Donald Payne Jr., Newark City Council president, told the Star Ledger.
According to American Cancer Society statistics, Black men and women, respectively, are 1.5 and 1.4 times more likely to die from the disease than whites.
Payne is New Jersey's first African-American congressman and a former Congressional Black Caucus chairman.

Those translations which read "his mother and father" have destroyed the deity of our Lord and Saviour. If Joseph is his real father then he is a common man and could never atone for our sins. He is in fact the only begotten son of God, YHWH.

DCFS Director Jess McDonald (left), Illinois Attorney General Jim Ryan (center) and Prevent Child Abuse-Illinois president Roy Harley (right) welcomed invitees to Child Abuse Prevention Month activities held inside the State Capitol rotunda.
SPRINGFIELD - Illinois Attorney General Jim Ryan, Department of Children and Family Services Director Jess McDonald, along with Prevent Child Abuse Illinois Executive Director Roy Harley, today kicked off the state's observance of Child Abuse Prevention Month by announcing statistics that show a continued decline in incidents of child abuse and neglect in Illinois.
During the past year, the number of children abused and neglected in Illinois declined by nearly 3 percent, continuing the statewide trend that has resulted in a 25.9 percent decline in child abuse and neglect cases since 1995. This decrease runs counter to the national trend in which most states show increases in abuse and neglect.
"Many of Governor George Ryan's initiatives have contributed to these good numbers," said Director McDonald. "Programs such as the Department of Human Services' Healthy Families Illinois, which serves parents with newborn children, and the Parents Too Soon (PTS) program, which served nearly 24,000 adolescents and teen parents under the age of 21, are just two examples of community-based programs that work." Another example of a successful initiative is the Prenatal Network Program developed by DHS. In FY00, the Prenatal Network Program - a network of hospitals, physicians and others who provide health care services during pregnancy and childbirth - served approximately 22,000 women.
"Despite all of these improvements, children still die and each child's death is an unacceptable tragedy. Last year we experienced another increase in the number of child deaths in the state. It takes partnerships in each community to make kids safe at home, and partnerships are what we're honoring today," said McDonald.
"Child Abuse Prevention Month provides an opportunity to focus public attention and energies on the tragedy of child abuse, and the clear need to find ways to prevent it," Roy Harley of Prevent Child Abuse added.
Since its founding in 1990, Prevent Child Abuse Illinois has developed or promoted initiatives that contribute to strong, healthy families where children are raised in a safe and nurturing environment, and provided parents with the help and tools to ensure the healthy development of their children. The organization accomplishes this mission through public awareness campaigns, parent education and support programs, professional training and technical assistance, and community-level coalition building.
The organizations receiving "Special Recognition" at today's ceremony are Local Area Network (LAN)-based programs that have reputations for success in reducing child abuse and neglect. The programs are representative samples of community-based prevention programs in Illinois' urban, suburban and rural areas. Each nominee had to be in existence for at least two fiscal years. Each program had to be based on the following principles: Innovation, Collaboration, Family Focused, Parent/Client Driven, and Outcome Based. Honorees include:

California's Pinnacles National Monument Finally a Bona Fide National Park
by Melissa Hennessey | January, 2013
Last week, President Obama elevated the lowly Pinnacles National Monument in California to a bona fide United States National Park. Pinnacles is going to the big show, and we're here to cheer it on!
The 26,000 acre park is the smallest in the state, located between the 101 and 5 freeways. Most of its volcanic field, caves and pinnacles (the parks namesake) are best explored on foot says the rangers. In fact, it is the only option for most of the area as there are no roads connecting the parks east and west borders.

Defense Acquisitions:
Assessments of Selected Weapon Programs

This report is GAO's sixth annual assessment of selected weapon programs. Since 2000, the Department of Defense (DOD) has roughly doubled its planned investment in new systems from $790 billion to $1.6 trillion in 2007, but acquisition outcomes in terms of cost and schedule have not improved. Total acquisition costs for major defense programs in the fiscal year 2007 portfolio have increased 26 percent from first estimates, compared with 6 percent in 2000. Programs have also often failed to deliver capabilities when promised. DOD's acquisition outcomes appear increasingly suboptimal, a condition that needs to be corrected given the pressures faced by the department from other military and major nondiscretionary government demands. This report provides congressional and DOD decision makers with an independent, knowledge-based assessment of defense programs, identifying potential risks when a program's projected attainment of knowledge diverges from best practices. The programs assessed--most of which are considered major acquisitions by DOD--were selected using several factors: high dollar value, acquisition stage, and congressional interest. This report also highlights overall trends in DOD acquisition outcomes and issues raised by the cumulative experience of individual programs. GAO updates this report annually under the Comptroller General's authority to conduct evaluations on his own initiative.
Of the 72 programs GAO assessed this year, none of them had proceeded through system development meeting the best practices standards for mature technologies, stable design, or mature production processes by critical junctures of the program, each of which are essential for achieving planned cost, schedule, and performance outcomes. The absence of wide-spread adoption of knowledge-based acquisition processes by DOD continues to be a major contributor to this lack of maturity. Aside from these knowledge-based issues, GAO this year gathered data on four additional factors that have the potential to influence DOD's ability to manage programs and improve outcomes--performance requirements changes, program manager tenure, reliance on nongovernmental personnel to help perform program office roles, and software management. GAO found that 63 percent of the programs had changed requirements once system development began, and also experienced significant program cost increases. Average tenure to date for program managers has been less than half of that called for by DOD policy. About 48 percent of DOD program office staff for programs GAO collected data from is composed of personnel outside of the government. Finally, roughly half the programs that provided GAO data experienced more than a 25 percent increase in the expected lines of software code since starting their respective system development programs. In response to previous GAO recommendations and congressional direction, DOD has recently taken actions that could help move the department toward more sound, knowledge-based acquisition processes. For example, a new concept decision review initiative, guidance for determining acquisition approaches based on capability need dates, and the establishment of review boards to monitor weapon system configuration changes could enable department officials to make more informed decisions in the early stages of a program and better match program requirements and resources, a key first step. Improvements to individual program acquisition outcomes will likely hinge on the success of initiatives like these, paired with knowledge-based strategies.

Bottle opener plans
Bottle opener is one of those little things that exist in every home. They are an integral part of equipment in any bar, restaurant and everywhere where people stay long enough that they may need water or a refreshing drink. Other often used little things are key tags. They are used even more than bottle openers. Everyone who uses even one key probably has key tag on it. Bottle opener designed in form of key tag is practical solution for anyone who often uses both of them.
Here you can find plans for several simple bottle openers designed like key fobs, so you can easily add the key ring and make practical key tag. Our plan offers a few ideas which you can use to manufacture bottle opener key tag in any similar shape you like. Retaining functional geometry of bottle opener on end, and changing shape of the rest of key tag, you can create many interesting pieces. You can personalize it by writing or engraving name, initials, company logo or some simple pattern.
Bottle opener by our plan can be made out of different materials such as steel, metal alloys, or any solid and durable material that will not break during use. If you have a machine for cutting some of these materials, this will surely be interesting items to manufacture. Such designs of bottle openers are very suitable for cutting by different CNC machines (EDM, CNC mill, CNC router...). For this reason, on this page you can download 3D models (STEP and STL files) and 2D profiles (DXF file) of all six bottle opener shapes. After cutting, take a special attention on final surface quality, because key tag has to be pretty if you want to use it.
Every item that you will manufacture during practicing you can give to your friends because bottle opener is useful for everyone. The possibility of use as a key tag makes them very interesting and practical.

Funeral Carriages and Cast Iron Coffins
When we went through the Rural Life Museum they had some Funeral Carriages (which I had seen before) and also an exhibit of coffins including ones of Cast Iron. This is what the sign inside the horse-drawn hearse said:
Cast Iron Coffins, 1850's
The Fisk Metallic Burial Case was patented in 1848 by New Yorker A.D. Fisk. Early mummiform styles like this one show the influence of Egyptomania in Victorian society. Cast iron coffins were manufactured by the thousands in 17 different styles until the 1880's and have been recovered in 20 states, including California. Newspaper advertisements for the metallic burial cases boasted that they were "air tight and indestructible..for preserving the mortal remains of the departed for an indefinite period of time above or underground." The coffins were especially popular during the Civil War in order to transport fallen soldiers home for interment. Notable nineteenth-century politicians John C. Calhoun, Henry Clay, Daniel Webster, and Stephen Douglas were also laid to rest in metallic burial cases.
The Rural Life Museum's three coffins were exhumed from a family tomb in St. Joseph's Catholic Cemetery in Thiboudaux, Louisiana in 1992 by a team of experts working with Louisiana State University. The individuals buried inside were wealthy Acadians Celeste Leontine Gaudet Lacaperre (1824-1852); her sister Clemence Elizabeth Gaudet Tucker Evans (1821-1857) and Clemence's son Daniel Pennington Wade Tucker (1836-1852). Unlike most of the metallic burial cases recovered, these had remained intact since interment, so that the clothing, jewelry and flowers inside were well preserved and the bodies themselves (now reburied) had become mummified. Three xxx of the coffins' contents are held by...

Matthew Smith+121 Reply I disagree. Photos can look so much better with filters. Not everyone can frame shots great or get to the perfect spot or have a tripod to take a photo with and filters/editing software can alleviate the problem. That being said, I personally like Snapseed for fine tuned controls on photos but Pixlr-O-Matic has way more filters than anyone else.
Jonathan Delgado-Bosso+565 Reply PIXLR EXPRESS, why? The UI destroys anything else, there are tons of filters/overlays, and it also has some core editing (contrast/brightness/white balance etc) features as well.Snapseed beats Pixlr/Instagram for core editing, but to filter pictures, it sucks.
Bill Thruman+010 Reply +Jonathan Yao Hoya is great too just didnt come to mind at first lol but I would have to say Hoya is probably the best
Mark Hayes+343 Reply I want photos to come from my camera (whether it's a DSLR, point and shoot, or a phone) untouched. If I want to apply a filter, I'll use Photoshop (as I mentioned above)......and usually, I prefer photos to be more editorial, the less manipulation the better they tell the story. If you want to take pictures that look distressed, etc, shoot film. There's a Holga out there waiting for you...

Forgiveness used to be a tough one for me. I suffered severe abuse as a child, and like most of us, I picked up a few more bruises as I moved into and through adulthood. What I understand now, though I didn't realize it at the time, was that I held onto my wounds as if they were a gift. Or a badge of honor. Perhaps they were, if I regarded continued victimhood is my goal.
I don't think I'm alone in that. I once attended a book signing of an author speaking about forgiveness. The audience was packed, and the negative feelings in that space were so strong, they were palpable. When invited to share the things they couldn't forgive explosive feelings burst into speech. But strangely enough, most of the speakers didn't discuss the great wrongs they'd suffered. They talked about the guy who cut them off today while they were driving, or the person who had 20 items in the 15-item express line at the supermarket. Their anger seemed too excessive for such minor slights.
Do angry people simply look for new things to be angry about? Or do deeper old wounds, cut off by scar tissue, look for fresh sores to infect?
Maybe a little of both. If other people are like me, they resist forgiving the wrongs they've suffered because it seems as if they're letting the wrong-doers off the hook.
It's taken me a long time, but I now understand that forgiveness is a gift you give yourself. It's how you let go of the past, so that you can live freely and happily in the present. It's how you deny the past its strangling hold over your future.
And if you've truly been wronged, isn't that what you deserve? Isn't that the gift you should give yourself?

(AFP) – Dec 5, 2011
WASHINGTON — Republican White House hopefuls attacking President Barack Obama as having undermined US ties to Israel are "making everything up," Democratic Senator John Kerry charged Monday.
"The Republicans have a habit of not telling a lot of truth in presidential campaigns," he said, an obvious reference to his 2004 run for the White House, when conservatives assailed his Vietnam War service with charges contradicted by official US Defense Department records.
"The Republicans are making everything up. They make everything up. That doesn't mean that it's a reality," Kerry told AFP when asked about Republican assaults on Obama's handling of relations with Israel.
"The president has been as supportive, if not more supportive, than any president in American history."
Kerry, who chairs the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, said Obama's September speech opposing the Palestinian effort to gain UN membership "was about as affirmative a speech as has ever been made about America's relationship with Israel."
Republicans have stepped up charges that Obama has shortchanged Israel's security by not doing enough to halt Iran's suspect nuclear program and pushing the staunch US ally too hard to return to peace talks with the Palestinians.
And Republican presidential candidates Mitt Romney and Newt Gingrich have pressed Obama to fire the US ambassador to Belgium after he said that the Middle East conflict was partly to blame for anti-Semitism.
Republicans have seized on Obama's rocky relationship with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and calls for Israel to cease settlements, seeking to increase their standing among Jewish voters and supporters of Israel in general.

Willie Smith went to the Redskins yesterday. He's a really good O-Lineman... he's had some injury issues, which is probably why he went undrafted. He's healthy now and has gotten a little bigger and quicker. Right now he's around 6'6" 310... and faster than most linemen.

What is the story with Willie Smith? I thought for sure he would be one of the most coveted free agents.

D34Williams → ECUPantherFan
Steve isn't hurting any receivers, and if he is, they're soft. Rookie qb or not, Smith makes this team better, and even if he is negative, his fire and ability benefits outweigh any negative impact he may have here. His barking at Cam or whoever the qb is, is only going to get him over the hump faster in my opinion. Bottom line, Smith brings more to this team that makes it better than what he may bring to this team that's detrimental.

D34Williams → ECUPantherFan
I didn't say you aren't a true fan, you may be. I'm mad Steve wants to leave too. But I guess where we differ is that I feel like Smith has earned the right to bitch about not being able to be productive, when it's his productivity that suffers because of our overall teams well being. You just act like he's a bitchy player who has no value or hasn't had any history here, and want him to suffer if he were to leave. He's no cancer to this team, and Beason/Davis being glad to 'plant' him if he were to come here to play against us has nothing to do with anything. You make it sound like they want to 'plant' him right now, which they wouldn't because they're class acts as team mates, and additionally, you really have no knowledge on the way they feel towards him.

Book Description:Every year the Burton snowboard team travels south chasing snow. 28 Day Winter: A Snowboarding Narrative documents a specific moment in time: August 2006, when Dean "Blotto" Gray, Jeff Curtes, and Adam Moran circled the globe with the world's best snowboarders. These young athletes, all between the ages of 15 and 30, comprise an elite team of Olympic gold medalists, legendary pioneers, and big mountain champions. Burton's photographers not only snowboarded right alongside these power players through the life-threatening courses and first descents down Methven and Wanaka, New Zealand and Termas De Chillan, Chile, capturing the airborne 720-degree rotations and flights across man-made and natural obstacles, but also accompanied them in their travels and downtime. An intimate and penetrating glance into the lives and feats of professional athletes, 28 Day Winter is an epic photographic narrative that captures these snowboarders pushing the limits of riding in the ultimate conditions, documents the ultimate trip, and inspires us all to ride. Snowboarders featured in the book include Terje Haakonsen, the Norwegian legend; Shaun White, the gnarly American Olympic gold medalist; Nicolas Muller, the Swiss freestyle champion; Kelly Clark, Olympic gold medalist and big mountain champion; Hannah Teeter, Olympic gold medalist; and Victoria Jalous, the Canadian wunderkind.

Exit Gutthi, enter Dulari on Kapil's comedy show
By Subhash K. Jha, Mumbai, Nov 27 : Sunil 'Gutthi' Grover's controversial exit from Colors' "Comedy Nights With Kapil" has reached a flashpoint - the channel has decided to replace Sunil Grover with another comic actor Gaurav Gera.
Gaurav's drag act starts this Sunday when Saif Ali Khan appears on the popular show, but he won't play Gutthi. He will play another female character named Dulari.
Apparently, Sunil was planning a comedy show with Gaurav.
A bit of a stab-in-the-back situation, no?
Sunil disagrees. "If it wasn's Gaurav it would've been someone else. The show had to go on. And I'm glad a friend is doing it. I'm looking forward to seeing what Gaurav does," he said.
Gaurav had played a woman on another show "Mrs Pammi Pyarelal" on the channel but the act bombed.

CNET Editors' review
The full-service version of ICQ s messaging client offers up a host of communication features beyond just instant messaging. If you use everything here, the ads in the messaging window will be a small price to pay, but if not, those ads are likely to send you seeking another client. So what do you get? Most important from a messaging standpoint is probably multiuser chat, unavailable in ICQ Lite, and beyond that you get a Web-based messaging center, enhanced status message functions for your contact list, and quite a few interesting community options, including robust search capabilities for meeting people. For those who rely on an IM network as an important part of their social world, ICQ Pro will certainly impress, but it s probably too much program for the average chatter.Publisher's Description
From ICQ:
ICQ Pro 2003b is the latest release of ICQ, the instant-messaging program that lets you communicate with friends and colleagues in real time. To seek out a friend on the ICQ network, simply enter his or her ICQ number, name, nickname, or e-mail address. Once your contact list is set up, you'll be notified when your friends are online so you can chat; send instant messages, files, and URLs; play games; or just hang out.
ICQ Pro 2003b includes ICQphone, a feature that incorporates IP telephony functions into the ICQ program. Users can initiate and participate in PC-to-PC and PC-to-phone calls. In addition, users can also utilize SMS technology, send wireless-pager messages, view up-to-date information on ICQ channels, and integrate ICQ with Outlook.
With the latest version of ICQ, you can move instantly from the Pro to Lite versions just by clicking "Switch to ICQ lite" from the Main menu, and the shared ICQ preferences and password make it easy to move between Lite and Pro versions without losing your settings. Other new features include improved e-mail integration and user interface, enhanced integration with Windows XP, automatic firewall detection, and the new Search Google window which allows you instant access to Google searches through the ICQ interface, plus much more. For a complete list of new features, visit the ICQ New Features page.

At Newport Beach Center for Plastic Surgery, we offer the most advanced, results-minded skin treatments available. Under the supervision of Dr. Savalia, Julie Sullivan, our experienced, licensed esthetician can provide you with exceptional personalized care to help you look and feel your best. From facials and chemical peels to microdermabrasion and waxing services, we have everything you need to help rejuvenate your appearance. Our full service menu includes:
Facial treatments help deep cleanse and exfoliate the skin while rejuvenating and refreshing the skin's texture. At Newport Beach Center for Plastic Surgery we have facials for all types of skin. Our esthetician will recommend one that is perfect for you.
Deluxe Finesse Facial - A thorough treatment for those seeking a little more pampering…Your facial begins with a skin analysis, cleansing, steam, exfoliation, extractions, serum and a customized mask. A relaxing massage for the face, neck, upper back, hands and arms to complete this deluxe treatment. 75 minutes Finesse Facial - This relaxing treatment includes a skin analysis, cleansing, exfoliation, steam, extractions and a customized mask. It also includes a relaxing face, neck and upper back massage to leave you feeling relaxed and refreshed. 60 min. IS Clinical Innovative Facial - This intensive clinical facial is designed to rapidly and safely resurface the skin, reducing fine lines and wrinkles smoothing softening and encouraging cellular renewal. The centerpierce of this remarkable treatment system is a combination of two therapeutic masques: Intensive Resurfacing Masque and a Rejuvenating Masque. Awakening your senses, this phenomenal system incorporates both active and soothing formulas, which evoke aromas of warm cinnamon spice and brisk cool peppermint. 60 minutes Is Clinical Refresher Facial - This facial is a great way to help our patients maintain healthy, hydrated skin all year long. A quick and effective treatment to "Refresh" at lunchtime or a great "Go Home" soother after a stressful day. A rejuvenating masque and Hydra-Cool Serum is applied to effectively treat and hydrate your skin. 45 minutes
Chemical peels help improve and smooth the appearance of the facial skin by removing its damaged outer layers. Chemical peels are used on the face to reduce the depth of fine lines and wrinkles caused aging, sun damage and other environmental factors. They are also effective at evening out the skin's imperfections and helping to fade brown spots. Our licensed esthetician offers light to superficial-depth chemical peels to suit your needs.
Microdermabrasion utilizes a hand held instrument that emits very fine crystals to polish the surface of the skin. The instrument then suctions away both the upper most layer of skin and crystals to reveal a layer of fresh, invigorated skin. There is minimal discomfort and virtually no down time. Microdermabrasion improves dull or uneven skin color, relieves clogged pores and blackheads, refines the appearance of fine lines and large pores, and softens roughness or thickened patches of dead skin.
Discreetly eliminate unwanted hair from areas such as the chin, lip and brow. During this procedure, wax is applied to the skin and allowed to harden. When the wax is removed, the unwanted hair is pulled off with it. The results are immediate, but touch-up sessions are usually recommended to keep the skin as smooth as possible.
This luxurious treatment helps improve circulation and skin texture. Your hands will feel noticeably softer, and you'll feel relaxed and pampered.
Contact Newport Beach Center for Plastic Surgery for more information on Orange County esthetician services and find out which procedures are right for you.

Being used to wide open spaces and grand views this is a bit out of my comfort zone.
Mrs Grace and I spent a week in Somerset early last month and took a day trip on the West Somerset railway between Bishops Lydeard and Minehead. A bit of a blast from the past so to speak.
Managed to get a few of the engineers compartment whilst we were in Minehead. This was processed in CS5 along with using the tonal contrast tool in Nik Softwares Colour Efex, which to me has brought out the metal very well.
Thanks for stopping by to have a look and also to those that viewed, commented and clicked on yesterdays uplaod. Much appreciated.

Or can you...
I love this series. However (spoiler) at the ending. I did not use the stone button on the chimney near the cat statue. but once I put all the levers in the right places I got the energy sphere and I was able to open the door in the gateway. So idk what happened; maybe all you need to finish the game is the levers in the appropriate places. Doesn't mak the game any less awesome though.
Great game of course. I had to play it 5 different times, and each time I found a bit more than the last time until I finally solved it... didn't find one secret though.
ahhh,i remember submachine when i was 8,now im 14 and another sequel X3
Easy to escape or shall i say hard all submachine games are very hard just that you need to see clearly as some object are hidden and you will need more common sense
took me forever to get to the last place but then my ie closed and it dident save
