Overview of DoD Information Collections and their Approval Processes
DoD information collections may be internal to DoD, internal to a DoD or Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD) Component, public, or Congressional. Some DoD information collections may be both internal to DoD and public.
Use the table on the right to learn more about the four types of DoD information collections. The procedures to obtain approval for a DoD internal information collection are outlined on this website at the Guidance and Process tab.
Contact your Component Information Management Control Officer (IMCO) (DoD Personnel Only) or use the Approval Process Generator to identify your DoD information collection type.
Department of Defense (DoD) Internal Information Collections
DoD internal information collections are collections of information that cross DoD or Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD) Components (see a list of DoD and OSD Components). If the requester of the information is not a DoD or OSD Component, the requester must obtain a DoD or OSD Component sponsor to collect information from the DoD. If a DoD or OSD Component requests information from another Federal agency, the information collection must be approved as a DoD internal information collection and in accordance with any additional procedures prescribed by the responding Federal agency.
All DoD internal information collections must be approved and assigned a report control symbol (RCS) in accordance with the procedures in DoD Manual 8910.01, Volume 1 as outlined on this website. See the DoD Internal Information Collections Approval Process webpage to obtain approval of a DoD internal information collection and a report control symbol.
Information Collected by DoD from the Public
DoD or OSD Components collecting information from the public (to include DoD contractors) must follow the procedures for public information collections in DoD Manual 8910.01, Volume 2.
Those collections that are both DoD internal and public information collections must first obtain approval from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) and an OMB control number in accordance with the procedures for public information collections in DoD Manual 8910.01, Volume 2. Once process to obtain an OMB control number begins, the DoD Public Information Collections Officer will notify the action officer and the Component Information Management Control Officer (IMCO) when to prepare a DD Form 2936 action package for the assignment of a report control symbol. Visit the DoD Public Information Collections Website for more information on DoD public information collections.
Congressional Information Collections
Congressional information collections are those collections submitted by DoD to Congress. Follow procedures in DoD Instruction 5545.02 and coordinate with the Office of the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Legislative Affairs. Information collections that are required by Congress but not submitted back to Congress must be processed as DoD internal information collections.
DoD and OSD Component Internal Information Collections
When information is collected internally within one DoD or OSD Component (i.e., information is not crossing DoD or OSD Components) the collection must be approved in accordance with the procedures required by that Component. Contact the respective DoD or OSD Component Information Management Control Officer (IMCO) for more information on Component internal information collections approval procedures.
Action Officers seeking approval for collections internal to the Office of the Deputy Chief Management Officer (DCMO) should see the DCMO guidance and process webpage.

FORT MYERS, Fla. - The 69th annual Dunbar Easter Parade took place Sunday afternoon. Crowds lined the streets and admired a procession of floats, bands and dancers.
Wink News spoke with spectators who say they attend the community event every year! And while it wouldn't be Easter without the baskets, 7-year-old Dalevion Knight says that's not what the holiday is all about.
"God rose from the dead and died on the cross for us. For our sins," Knight said.
"This is all about the resurrection of Jesus, his third day that he rose again from the grave and so with that we have new life and in life more abundantly, because he died for our sins," said Darrun Smith.
For almost seven decades the residents have lined the streets of Dunbar for the parade.
"We just come out and do some support and with family and enjoy each other, barbecuing and having a great time," Smith said.
He says it's a time for fellowship and rebirth.
"It's great to have a day of positivity and to be optimistic about life and to come together in unity," he said.
"Easter Sunday is very important, it's one of the special holidays. It just brings people together and everybody is dressed so beautifully, just a happy day," said Fort Myers resident Victoria Ford.

This mascara is mediocre. It is a tubing formula (as advertised) and removes easily. It does not smudge, however, it does flake. I've never had such flaking issues with a mascara before. If, like me, you have very long, fine lashes and are looking more for volume than length, then this mascara is NOT for you.
I have tried two more mid/high-end tubing mascaras since tossing Too Faced Lash Injection: Cargo Better-than-Waterproof and MAC Extended Play Gigablack Lash. MAC is the winner.

I love the Two Faced Mascara line, especially the Qween size pink tube. It stays on all day, and most of all it does not smudge. The lash injection tube is for those who like to spend more time putting on mascara. It works well but because of brush size takes more time.

There are two good things about this mascara: it's cruelty-free, and it doesn't flake (much) or smudge, and I'm prone to both. It doesn't go on very well though, pretty dry and clumpy, and also does nothing for length, volume or curl. It actually makes my lashes straighter. Pretty meh overall. It also gets worse with time.

As a Too Faced product lover, I am disappointed. One, this mascara clumps so easily and it is a pain for me to try and separate them. I even scrape off some of the product off the bristles and that doesn't even work. Also I feel that the brush is just to big and if it was a bit smaller, it would be really good especially if you have pesky inner eye lashes. I did like that it never moved during the day especially with summer here now.
I know that this is a waterproof mascara (a plus) but the way it comes off kills me. When I go to take it off, the mascara pretty much slides off my lashes in long clumps. Usually when I take off a mascara, it 'disintegrates' in a way, well this mascara...I don't really know how to explain it in anyway but this, it's like you pinched the edge of your lashes and just pulled your mascara right off. So I end up with pieces of mascara globs shaped all over my eye area.
Some people might like that because it means you don't have to rub your eyes to much but if you are not careful it will get into your eyes. I've tried other water proof mascaras and have had way better experiences with them.
Thankfully I got this as a gift instead of purchasing it myself because this is not the best mascara I've ever used and I feel that Too Faced could have done a way better job with this product.

THE gummiest mascara I have ever used!!! I applied it and my lashes immediately clumped together in spikes that took a lot of effort--and a very fine-tooth metal comb--to separate. The final effect wasn't that outstanding either: they were black but there wasn't significant length and/or volume (I could have gotten at least one from this product!).
Once the mascara dries it wears like iron. But it doesn't remove in neat little tubes like the other tubing mascaras. Instead, it comes off in little crumbles, some of which are hard as well as messy to remove.
Lash Injection was returned to Ulta the very next day. I'd rather drop the extra few bucks for Blinc instead.

Too Faced Lash Injection is a tubing mascara that comes off easily with oil as well as with warm water. It is a rich black, one of the blackest I've seen. It has a traditional style bristle wand, which gets to most of my lashes, but has some difficulty getting to the outermost and innermost corners.
Unlike others, I've experienced no flaking , even after 14-hour days. In fact, I've been turning to Lash Injection when I want to be positive I won't have flaking or smudging.
Lash Injection gives me reasonable thickness, but It does tend to stick my lashes together. Not my best look. It doesn't give me additional length. My lashes have their own curl, so I can't attest to it's curl-holding powers. It doesn't weigh my lashes down, though. My tube has lasted me four months without drying out .
I'll likely not repurchase because of the lash-sticking-together issue. There are too many other options to try.

I normally love Too Faced, they are my favorite makeup brand but this mascara is a dud for me. I'm reviewing the newest formula, not the old one. I purchased this mascara at Beauty Brands for about $12 on sale and decided to give it a whirl.
First off, the formula is waterproof and it doesn't come off without makeup remover. I am a housekeeper and I do sweat and it's nice to have on a swipe of mascara and BB cream to feel feminine even if I'm scrubbing a toilet. This mascara does not sweat off or flake.
Second, the packaging is really cute... at first. All the writing on the tube has smudged off and it isn't looking too hot anymore after about 4 months of being in my Caboodle. I am not rough on my products, it's a little disappointing considering how cute it is right out of the box.
Third, the mascara itself globs together in the tube. I pull the wand out of the tube and on the stem was attached a huge blob of black sticky mess. I don't pump the wand in and out of the tube so this is a little ridiculous.
The mascara is okay, it doesn't lengthen well and doesn't thicken at all. It just wears very natural looking which is fine but the name of the mascara is a bit misleading in that sense.
Overall, don't waste your time or money, try the Better Than Sex (volume) or Lashgasm (length), both are way better than this and I'm glad I didn't spend full price.

Dr. Fazeela Abbasi, Dermatologist, Talking about how often should you wash your hair. Hair should be regularly washed, especially when the scalp gets too oily, there is too much humidity in the air. This also depends on the lifestyle of the person. Those having an active lifestyle are advised to wash the hair daily, whereas others can even be suited after a day. This is very important because good washing of hair not only makes the hair healthy but it also helps dandruff to disappear. It should be noted that dandruff is the major cause of hair fall. So if this is removed, your hair is bound to become strong and healthy. Another point to be noted is that oiling your hair doesn't affect it any way or another. This has been proven over medical research and said by greatest hair experts. Massaging oil through hair just helps in the blood circulation of the brain. However, oiling for about 2 hours makes your hair healthy. But putting on oil for too long is harmful for the hair as it blocks the pores in your head. This makes the hair even oilier and promotes further growth of dandruff. This causes more hair fall. People now should be free from the misconception that not talking a bath daily will prevent hair fall. Hair should be regularly washed to promote healthy growth.

Dr. Khurram Mushir Talking About Skin care tips for Young Girls in Urdu
Dr Khurram Mushir talking about skin care tips for Young Girls. For clearer skin, he recommends rubbing gentamicin cream and collagen elastin lotion on your face or cleaning it with an astringent. A cure for pimples and glowing skin is a home made soap made by mixing 100 grams of unscented crushed soap with equal quantities of rose water, glycerin and crushed almond. Then add 10 to 12 drops of clove oil and a few rose petals. Then cook till the water evaporates and clean your body with the mixture. A useful drink to reduce acne is a mixture of luke warm water, a spoonful of honey, seeds of lunga and a hint a Lahori salt.
Causes for acne include eating oily food such as chips and coke (a popular trend in foreign countries) and food that hasn't been prepared at home, i.e. food from the market. These also lead to gastric trouble and dark circles. Dark circles are also caused by prolonged hours of watching the television or reading books without breaks. To reduce freckles, have tablets of omega 3 fatty acids: one in the morning and one in the evening, everyday for 2 months. Moreover, eat lots of spinach, radishes and beets.
For joint pain, you can drink a tea made of warm water mixed with 5 grams of gourd seeds. In addition, you can eat tablets every day that contain calcium, vitamin c and zinc. Milk, milk products and yoghurt also help reduce joint pain.
People who have pneumonia should drink a lot of chicken broth and soups, intake lots of vitamins and eat porridge and vegetables. Moreover, they should drink water mixed with honey and levigon for vitality. Diabetic patients should avoid flour, flour products and sugar which have a high glycemic index. Instead, they should consume fresh fruits (except watermelon and dates), wheat, all types of meat (especially fish) and bread.
An easy solution for gastric problems is making a mixture by putting celery in vinegar for 24 hours and then drinking one glass per day of luke warm water blended with 2 tablespoons of this mixture. This is also helpful for weight loss and reducing gas problems and burning sensation caused by urination.
If your face is losing its colour and becoming dull, you should drink a mug of sugar cane juice daily. Also, make a mixture with half a cup of glycolic acid cream and a pinch of turmeric powder and put this is in the fridge. Then put the mixture on your face every night before you sleep and see the difference within one week. For a darkening chin, apply kenacomb cream and for moles, use novasalic cream.

[Cross-posted on Poll Dancing]
The conservative Web sites are near-hysterical about the prospect of McCain as the GOP nominee. Thomas Sowell, a notable conservative author, writes on the Web site GOPUSA, a Texas-based operation:
When confronted with any of his misdeeds, Senator McCain tends to fall back on his record as a war hero in Vietnam.
Let's talk sense. Benedict Arnold was a war hero but that did not exempt him from condemnation for his later betrayal.
and more ...
McCain was one of "the Keating five" -- Senators who used their influence to try to protect a failing savings & loan company, which also became the subject of a corruption investigation.
During the 2000 primaries, the Associated Press reported Senator McCain's joking about people with Alzheimer's.
This went beyond bad taste because (1) it was known at the time that Ronald Reagan was suffering from Alzheimer's and (2) the media to whom McCain was pandering hated Ronald Reagan.
Then former Speaker of the House Dennis Hastert piled on. This is the lead to a story in the Baltimore Sun:
Former House Speaker Dennis Hastert questioned John McCain's Republican credentials today, saying he was always known among the GOP as "the undependable vote" in the Senate and always "allied with Democrats."
To which RedState.com replies:
Denny Hastert should throw no stones. Given Denny Hastert's inept management of the House, his siding with William Jefferson in his scandal, and his love of earmarks, he is not the messenger to attack John McCain.
Denny Hastert bashing John McCain is like a burglar bashing the police. For every tax payer dollar Denny Hastert was willing to let out the door for frivolous purposes, John McCain and Tom Coburn fought to keep in the treasury for better purposes.
They're eating their own.
Here's Rush Limbaugh, whose home page features a photo of McCain surrounded by Ahnuld and Rudy under the headline, IT'S PLAIN TO SEE: MCCAIN CHOOSES TO SURROUND HIMSELF WITH LIBERALS. In a transcript that is posted on the site, Rush explains to a caller why he may not vote for the Republican nominee this year:
CALLER: My question to you is because I am absolutely beside myself, Rush. Why in the world would you make a statement that you may not -- for the first time not -- vote in this election this year? Wouldn't any one of the Republican candidates be better than Hillary or Obama?
RUSH: Um, that's an interesting question that you asked. What I said was that I, for the first time on this program, I can see possibly not voting for the Republican nominee.
CALLER: But, Rush, there's enough of us... We all have problems with the fact that none of them are true conservatives, but isn't something better than nothing?
RUSH: Well, let me try and explain it to you this way. If one such as myself happens to believe that there's not too much of a substantive difference between Mrs. Clinton and a couple of the Republican potential nominees -- and if I believe that either the Republican or Democrat nominee is going to cause great damage and harm to the country -- I would just as soon it happen on the watch of a Democrat.
CALLER: Well, that certainly helps. That makes me feel a little better.
RUSH: Look, that statement I made is based on substantive analysis. It was a knee-jerk, and I didn't just throw it out there to be picked up. I knew it would be, but that's not why I threw it out there, and I'll tell you, Dee, it's rooted in the fact that -- I'm blue in the face here -- I'm a conservative first and a, quote, unquote, Republican second -- and party unity, at the expense of conservative principles and values to me is not advancing things.
More examples: newsmax.com, another conservative Web site, has an article today written by Michael Reagan under the headline, JOHN MCCAIN HATES ME. Reagan writes:
As I watched McCain and Gov. Romney go at it during the debate at the Reagan Library, I was struck by the huge gap that separates McCain — whose contempt for his fellow humans is patently obvious — and my dad, Ronald Reagan, who had nothing but the deepest affection and respect for the American people.
Also from Newsmax: "Focus on the Family founder James Dobson remains adamant that he will not support McCain's bid for the White House. Dobson, one of the nation's most influential evangelical Christians, declared more than a year ago that he wouldn't support McCain under any circumstances, saying McCain didn't support traditional marriage values."
But the biggest shocker of all was Ann Coulter on Hannity and Colmes Thursday night, when she said, "She's more conservative that he is" and "I will campaign for her if it's McCain."
The McCain Mutiny poses a gigantic threat to the Republican Party. If the conservatives continue to regard McCain as a greater enemy than the Democrats -- if they decide to stay home on election day -- Republicans will get wiped out all over the country, and don't think for a minute that Texas is exempt. Rick Perry understands this. He didn't endorse John McCain just because they are both flyboys. He endorsed him because the GOP is staring catastrophe in the face. Watergate extended Democratic domination of Congress for twenty years. The Republican sweep of 1994 exiled the Democrats from congressional power for twelve years -- and it would have been longer had the Iraq war gone better. A Democratic sweep in 2008 will not soon be reversed.
How real is the threat of the McCain Mutiny? At the moment it is just the far right's effort to bestir conservatives to vote for Romney on Super Tuesday, which is the last chance to block McCain's path to the Republican nomination. Perhaps, once McCain is the party's nominee, some of the critics will train their fire upon the Democrats' instead of their own. But professional conservatives like Limbaugh, Hannity, and Coulter have little incentive to make peace. Their livelihoods depend upon the conservatives maintaining control of the Republican party. The greatest danger to them is not Hillary Clinton -- she's a boon -- but that McCain may change the party by bringing in independents and moderates.
The Democratic party went through this stage in Texas. From the fifties through the seventies, the Democrats were split between conservative and liberal wings. The fight was a bitter one, because for rival factions, control of the party means everything. If your faction controls the party, you may lose most of the time, but eventually the other party will screw up and it will be your turn to run the country, or the state. But if your faction doesn't control the party, you never win.
The conservatives are engaging in a high-risk strategy. The talk-show crowd may think that they can control the whirlwind -- that, having whipped conservatives into an anti-McCain frenzy, they can, after the nomination, talk them back into the fold. I wouldn't bet on that. It is never easy to get the toothpaste back in the tube. The likeliest outcome of the anti-McCain feeding frenzy is a depressed conservative turnout nationwide, with Rs suffering losses from the courthouse to the White House. Texas is not exempt.
The Republican party is not going to recover until Republicans take a serious look at why they lost in 2006. Was it just a perfect storm of a controversial war, an unpopular president, Tom DeLay sleaze, and the congressional page scandal? Or was it something more profound? Certainly, events had a lot to do with the loss of both houses of Congress, but I think that the basic issue lies elsewhere. Republicans need to decide whether they lost because they were not conservative enough, as the right would have you believe, or whether they were too conservative. I think it is the latter -- that the takeover of the party by evangelicals brought to power a group that had little history of participation in politics, regarded every issue as a moral issue on which they were the arbiters of morality, and ultimately abandoned the party's longstanding commitment to individualism, libertarianism, and local control. This is going to take a long time to fix -- unless, of course, the Democrats blow their opportunity. Which would not suprise me.

RUSSOAP College Football WriterNEW YORKThe Big 12 and Southeastern Conference have agreed to a 12-year deal with ESPN for the rights to the Sugar Bowl in New Orleans.A person familiar with the contract said it was worth about $80 million per year through 2026. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because terms of the agreement were not being made public and details were still pending.The Big 12 and SEC recently picked the Sugar Bowl as the site of their new marquee game, starting in the 2014 season.The champions of each conference will play in the game, unless those teams are selected for the four-team playoff that also starts that season. In that case, other highly ranked teams from the Big 12 and SEC will play in the game.The Sugar Bowl will be one of six sites in the playoff rotation, along with the Rose Bowl, Orange Bowl and three more still to be announced. How often each bowl hosts a semifinal is still to be determined. ESPN's deal with the Sugar Bowl calls for it to broadcast the game even in years it hosts playoffs.ESPN earlier this year reached a similar 12-year deal, for about the same price, with the Pac-12 and Big Ten for the rights to the Rose Bowl.The person said a 12-year agreement between ESPN and the Orange Bowl will likely be announced soon.ESPN.com has previously reported that the network will pay about $55 million per year for the rights to the Orange Bowl, which will match the Atlantic Coast Conference champion, or another highly ranked team from the league, against either a SEC team, a Big Ten team or Notre Dame. The ACC struck a deal with the Orange Bowl during the summer.ESPN also is working on a 12-year deal for the entire playoff package of 24 semifinals and 12 national championship games, along with the other three host bowls, that has been reported to be worth around $500 million per year.

A contusion, commonly called a bruise, is often thought of as a minor type of injury that can occur from a motorcycle accident. Although many bruises are painful they are not serious and one would not necessarily think of hiring a lawyer to help them fight with insurance companies or work with medical professionals in order to ensure that a bruise was treated correctly. At the Pacific Attorney Group experience illustrates that there can be another side to bruises. As with more obviously serious motorcycle accident injuries such as fractures or avulsions we feel you need to be fully informed on contusion injuries and have a knowledgeable advocate on your side to fully protect your interests.
The key thing to know about bruises is that they can cover up a much more serious problem. Bruises can become serious when they are connected with severe injuries such as internal bleeding or fractures, both of which can occur from the violence and impact of a motorcycle accident. Bruises are actually graded on a scale from ones that result in very little damage up to critical bruising that can cause death. Severe bruising can cause bleeding and excess fluid to build up resulting in swelling. The swelling then cuts off blood flow to tissues that vitally need it. This can prove extremely harmful to internal organs including the brain and can cause these organs to function improperly or fail. We feel it is vital that you enlist the aid of a dedicated and hard-working San Diego motorcycle accident lawyer to ensure your motorcycle accident contusions may receive appropriate medical attention.
Perhaps one of the worst contusions that a rider can receive from a motorcycle accident is a brain contusion. A brain contusion can result in permanent brain cell damage. It can cause additional pressure on the brain resulting in further brain tissue damage and if not diagnosed and handled can disrupt the functioning of the nerves in the brain. Motorcycle accidents can be particularly tough on the brain due to the violent bouncing back and forth of the brain when the head is being severely thrown from side to side.
The injuries described above can drastically change your life and the lives of those you love. If you have been involved in an injury you may face hospital bills, replacement of your motorcycle and related gear, loss of wages and future medical bills. More importantly what may look like a common bruise may be covering up a more serious medical condition that requires urgent help. It is a sad but true statement that medical professionals and insurance companies and their attorneys are not always willing to do what is necessary to compensate you for your damages. Whether it is through the court system or by aggressive negotiations leading to a settlement, we pride ourselves on working hard on your behalf to get you the best possible outcome for your individual case.
Contact a Motorcycle Accident Attorney in San Diego
if you have received contusions from a motorcycle accident and desire competent and knowledge legal assistance for your case.

Hello and welcome to my website
It is amazing how time passes when you are doing something you love
I was sitting at home the other day and I started to look back at the time
I began to paint.Initially I taught disabled people to paint here in Ireland.
Back then I would have described myself as a painter of very limited
ability but with a realisation of what a wonderful hobby and how
therapeutic painting is to so many people. After 25 years my belief
has not changed one iota nor has my love of painting and my desire
to get other people to paint .And I am glad to say I have had some success,
but to my mind not enough as there are still so many people who say
"I would love to paint but I don't have the gift" That is so sad .
I have seen people paint with brushes in their mouth and between their toes
–good luck to them! In my roundabout way what I am trying to say is that
if you want to paint just give it a try.
I promise that you won't be sorry and it will be made easier by using
my Have Some More Fun System .It has proven successful over the years
and I have tens of thousands of letters and e-mails that tell me so.
Not one person has ever said "rubbish"
So please browse my site try some of my free lessons and just see how easy and fun it is

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: February 8, 2012
Schumer-Backed Bill Allows Up To Three Airports To Apply For Federal Military Airport Program (MAP) Funding – Griffiss Has Received MAP Funding Previously
With FAA Now Eligible To Award MAP Funds To Three Airports Instead of Just One, Griffiss Can Reapply With Better Odds For Success
Schumer: FAA Bill Could Clear The Way To Land More Federal Funds
Today, U.S. Senator Charles E. Schumer announced that the recently passed Federal Aviation Administration reauthorization bill will boost Griffiss Airport's chance of securing federal Military Airport Program (MAP) funding. Griffiss has benefitted from this type of funding in the past, before the airport lost the sole general aviation slot to receive funding to a Brunswick, ME airport. Following the loss of funding, Schumer worked to expand the number of 'general aviation' airports that could receive funding in a given year from one to three, and secured these additional slots as part of the FAA reauthorization bill that passed Congress this week. Griffiss will now have the opportunity to reapply and become one of three airports across the country receiving MAP funding.
"These investments were key to Griffiss' success, and this FAA bill reopens the door to reaping their benefits again," said Schumer. "Griffiss absolutely deserves MAP funding, which is why I went to bat to increase their chances of success in the FAA bill. The airport is an economic engine for the Mohawk Valley, and these funds could be the motor oil that keeps it running strong. I'm hopeful the FAA will do the right thing and pick Griffiss for MAP funding soon."
The Military Airport Program (MAP) uses federal funds to convert former military airports to civilian or joint-use airports. MAP funding, a set-aside of the Airport Improvement Program (AIP), provides a boost to civilian aviation capacity by upgrading former military airports. A total of 15 airports may participate in the program at any one time, but previously only a single 'general aviation' airport could receive funding. The FAA reauthorization bill now allows up to three general aviation airports to receive funding at a given time. Airports may be selected or reselected to receive financial assistance for up to five years.
Since 1990, the FAA has provided airport sponsors approximately $614 million for a variety of projects such as building or rehabilitating surface parking lots, fuel farms, hangars, utility systems, access roads, and cargo buildings. Many of these projects are not normally eligible for AIP funding, but projects for MAP-designated airports have unique eligibility rules to convert the airports to civilian or joint use.

Vivid Named Studio of the Year- XCritic Consumer Reviews
This film is over exposed!!! Cast of over 100. Inappropriate public nudity, 6 anal scenes. There are a million stories in the naked city. And some are actually naked. Paul Thomas presents the twisted tale of a woman who was not complete unless she was naked in public. At the bank, on the bus, at the carnival, all over town. Welcome to a major film with over 100 actors, made by adult's most awarded director, Paul Thomas and featuring a superstar at her peak, Savanna Samson. Flasher. It's yours. In a flash. Featuring chapter search, no regional coding, dvd-rom compatible, photo gallery, and previews.
Adult's most awarded director Paul Thomas joins Girls Gone Wild's biggest superstar Stefani Morgan in a comedy as big as the Texas landscape in which it was shot. "Star!" Nick Manning's birdy, the smarmy rock star visiting the little panhandle town where groupies like Stefani and her horny friends are easy pickings. And even if it takes two anals, they'll get on his show and in his pants before the second encore!!! You're about to witness the emergence of a major new star: Stefani Morgan. Don't miss "Star." This kind of show doesn't come through town very often...
They did everyone together. What do you do when you're identical twins from the Midwest and you're twice as horny as the average siblings? Easy. Move to California and call Vivid. Meet True Hollywood Twins, the almost true story of how two former twin TV stars re-create the fame and fortune they found on TV, but in the bedroom. With balls bouncing and cameras rolling!!! And it's all from the mind of Paul Thomas, adult's most awarded director. Ever dreamed of being double-teamed by two hot, horny twins? Stop dreaming. Wake up and buy True Hollywood Twins!!!

I found a great color in this foundation (N117). MUFE has an amazing range of colors with great undertones. The packaging was good - I like that there was a pump.
When I put the foundation on it looked very good. The coverage was light and had a natural finish. I used a setting powder so that it would last longer and hopefully stay on evenly since I have oily skin.
I really hoped that my nice skin look would last through the day, but the HD foundation didn't hold up. By the afternoon my face was very shiny, and a lot of the makeup slid off of my t-zone which exposed the redness in my skin. By the end of the day it looked like I had no foundation at all.
I would repurchase this if it had staying power. But as it stands now, I don't recommend it for oily skin.

I always get compliments when I wear this foundation, loveeee!
Im very picky when it comes to foundation but this is by far the best foundation I've purchased. I use a beauty blender to apply it makes it look so natural and dewy!love it!!!
I always wanted to try MUFE's HD foundation, and today was the day. I was color matched with the IQ (2R06) to 130, which was pinker and a little darker than I would have usually picked. The makeup artist at Sephora applied it and it looked great in the store: it covered all of my rosacea and make my skin look flawless, without feeling heavy. It looked a little cakey after the artist applied it (they usually have a heavy hand in the store so I wasn't surprised), but I blended it out and it was fine. I was very excited to have found a winner.
Then it oxidized...BAD. FAST. Just a few hours later, the color that was on my face was not the same shade as was first applied. It was much darker and rather orange. Very disappointing. I returned it and swore off MUFE.
Fast forward a few months...
I got a color IQ done again. 2Y07, which sounds a little more accurate albeit darker than I thought I was. Then again, I talked to the makeup tech and we decided that since my neck and my face are two different shades, for me to even things out, it'd be easier to match the darker of the two ...in my case, the neck. This translated to shade #140, and this time I received a sample to take home.
No oxidation! None!
Same excellent application, same "a little more perfect" look. I admit that I'm not quite used to seeing my face more closely match my neck's color: all these years, I had matched my face. It took a while to get used to this more even look. But my skin does look natural. It does not cover well--Smashbox's Studio Skin remains my HG--but it is an excellent lighter-weight foundation.
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
This product is overrated. It doesn't cover well and it doesn't last. I think it gets a lot of hype because the color spectrum is pretty well-done and its a non-cakey, non-offensive makeup, but if you have any real issues like discoloration or acne...skip this.
Just awful. I have horrible skin with a lot of hyper pigmentation and I was looking for something that would cover my stubborn acne marks that didn't wear off or melt off my face. The girls at Sephora raved about this product for coverage and combination skin types. Wow, all I can say is how wrong they were. This foundation is just terrible. It melted off my face in about 3 hours. I could actually feel how heavy and cakey it is on my face. That's a red flag if I could actually feel that I'm wearing makeup. I'll never buy this again. Waste of money.
This is a good foundation, it has a good coverage and I like that it comes with a pump. I have it in 115 and 117 (I'm MAC N15) and both shades matches my skin. Whenever I use this foundation someone say I look great! The only down side for me it's the staying power, after a few hours it starts to fade away and because of that I won't repurchase it! I have oily skin and I apply primer before and powder after, so I think this foundation it's better for normal/dry skin. I have acne-prone skin and it doesn't break me out.

I really like the foundation, I have combination skin and it suits me well, but I dont believe it works on dry skin, so If you have dry skin, i do not recommend this product. I got the 120 shade, which in the store seemed a bit yellow for my skin, since i have pink undertones, but when i tried it on, it really did blend in and got rid of the excess redness, so if you have pink/beige skin tone, the 120 will suit you more than the other pink tones. Overall, i like the packaging, the quality, even though a bit expensive and not as great as I was expecting it to be, but I will definitely purchase it again.

I apply it with a buffing brush (eg. Sephora 56, Real Techniques Expert Brush) or, newly, with a beauty blender. It is nicely pigmented and gives a medium to full coverage. By using a beauty blender I noticed i get a nicer coverage; the damp sponge makes the foundation blend seamlessly, but I feel like I need more pumps than I would need by using a dry brush. The foundation last pretty long: I get more than 8 hrs of wear time, but be aware you'll have to blot a lot. I have oily/combination skin, so after 2 hrs of wear you can notice the undesirable shine. You should blot every 2-4 hrs, which is kind of disappointing. Who wants to go to the restroom every now and then to blot? But, on the good side, the foundation photographs very nice. I've spend lot of time in the outdoors hiking wearing this foundation and taking pictures, and my skin on those pictures looks like my skin but better.
I like the foundation, but wish it had better oil absorbing properties. It photographs really well, has a great pigmentation and color range and the wearing time is pretty decent, though it transfers (my phone gets dirty every time) and you have to blot often.
If you ran out or lost this product would you buy it again? I'm not sure. It's not the perfect foundation for me, but not a bad one either. I put yes, but that isn't a strong "yes". I'm still on the hunt to find a foundation for the MSBB effect.
It survived whole day (10 am up to 9 pm)! I was at Universal Studios and for those who know how the Jurassic Park ride looks like, the foundation stayed put pretty good: after blotting with a lot of tissues! The foundation didn't look perfect, but I wasn't looking funny either! Every other fnd would have slipped off. Two thumbs up! I'm very impressed!

I liked this foundation a lot. Not my HG but I did like it and ended up using it all. I loved the coverage and finish of it because it left my skin flawless. However, I noticed that it didn't last very long on my skin (even with primer and setting with powder AND with setting spray). It would at most last 4-5 hours before it started to fade on me. If it was more long wearing, I would definitely repurchase because the color match was great (huge color selection).

Is Demi Lovato Cutting Herself?by Hilton Hater at . Comments
We hope this report is not true.
New rumors are swirling around Demi Lovato, as tabloids have published photos that appear to depict the Disney star's troubling habit of cutting herself, a self-mutilation reaction that some use to deal with difficult emotional issues.
Speculation first started around eight months, as the first set of questionable pics were released, seemingly showing Lovato's scarred wrists.
Now, Star Magazine has unleashed the pictures below:
"Demi has been really stressed out about her new show, Sonny with a Chance," a source told Star. "She's not getting enough downtime because there is so much work involved, and she's always being pulled in different directions."
Can such pressure lead to destructive behavior? Yes, says Jennifer Austin Leigh, a doctor that has never treated Lovato, yet, apparently, has also never turned down an opportunity for fame.
"Cutting is how she can let go of the stress that has built up inside - when she cuts herself, it's a way to cope," said the San Francisco–based psychologist.
Write in and show your support for Lovato. Hang in there, Demi.

Demi, please stop cutting you self, you are my favorite singer and I saw pictures of you after cutting your self and one oicture below sai dthat you threw up after cutting your self. And besides i don't see how you can do that without hurting badly.

A large rambler with three dormers, a large three-car garage and many extras would be a beginning description of the Pacifica (409-43). The home has a total of 3,324 square feet. The garage contains 1,113 square feet of space with storage in the rear and one bay longer than the others, ideal for a travel trailer to be stored. A covered porch protects the entry into the Pacifica and also projects the feeling of turn of the century comfort.
The vaulted entry gives the option of going to the right into a swing room or the utility area or going left into the living/dining rooms. Guest would find the vaulted living/dining rooms open, with only a small half-wall to separate them. There is a skylight in the dining area for extra light.

Across the vaulted nook and family rooms are more skylights, a patio door opening out to the back yard, and large picture window to enjoy the view. A gas fireplace is on the right side of the family room.
A huge utility has been strategically placed in the Pacifica, off the garage. It has a washer/dryer, freezer, forced air unit, built-in ironing board, and a laundry chute. Off this room is a full bath with an oversized shower, making the utility a mudroom, if needed.
The entire left side of the Pacifica is dedicated to the luxurious master suite. There are a set of French doors opening to the side for access to a future deck. Other features include two extra large walk-in closets, a vanity, a linen closet, an oversized custom shower, and a corner spa tub to melt away the day's stress. A skylight, glass blocks, and two large windows bath this area with light.

Select "Yes" from the popup window and you're done!
By Erica PerezThe Milwaukee Journal Sentinel
MILWAUKEE — Like a lot of 22-year-olds on the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee campus, Bryan LaChapelle knows his way around Facebook and MySpace.
Unlike most other twenty-somethings, however, LaChapelle is a police officer. Although others his age are using social networking Web sites to connect with friends and update each other on their daily lives, LaChapelle is using Facebook to root out campus crime.
"I'm not assigned to do it," LaChapelle said. "If I have a slower assignment, or 10 minutes at the beginning of my shift, I use a series of 20 different searches."
Police confronted the culprits, who confessed to the stinky deed, and the Milwaukee Police Department ticketed the offenders for disorderly conduct.
Facebook.com and MySpace.com are the newest crime-busting tools in a police officer's repertoire, particularly for campus police, who are using the sites to investigate student crimes and violations and gather information about where students live and whom they know. In some cases, the information they find is making its way into court.
"It gives police departments information and intelligence that they ordinarily in the olden days would look for on bulletin boards," said Lisa Sprague, president-elect of the national group International Association of Campus Law Enforcement Administrators.
Even though students know the information they post is, in many ways, public, the idea of campus police perusing social networking Web sites makes some edgy.
"Nobody's thinking about cops when you put something on Facebook," said Dane Poe, 20, a UWM freshman. "It would be surprising because there's a lot more other stuff out there they should be doing."
Campus police and college officials warn students to be careful what they post on social networking sites because they never know who's looking. Potential stalkers might deduce where someone is going to be at a certain time. Future employers might not be amused by the beer-guzzling antics shown in applicants' Facebook photos.
But even as they warn, campus police also take advantage of the information students probably shouldn't post online, whether it's phone numbers, addresses, relationships, photos or incriminating evidence.
And the use of the sites is only growing. Founded in February 2004, Facebook has 43 million users and has added more than 200,000 new registrations per day since January, according to the company's Web site.
"It really does behoove police departments to really be technically proficient on computers, and that includes social networking sites as well, because that's a very popular way for youth to socialize or to transmit information about parties and protests," Sprague said.
MySpace and Facebook information has started to show up at the courthouse, too.
Last month in Arizona's Pima County Superior Court, a prosecutor used pictures from suspect Matthew Cordova's MySpace page as evidence after he was accused of holding up a student with a Tec-9 semiautomatic handgun in June.
The 19-year-old's MySpace page had pictures of him holding a gun that looked a lot like a Tec-9. Cordova pleaded guilty to aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and was sentenced to five years in prison.
UW-Madison police officer Nick Banuelos, who uses the sites to find information about students he's investigating, said students are usually surprised to learn that he found incriminating photos or information online.
"Their knowledge of how we use it, it's pretty much low," Banuelos said.
A couple weeks before Latino fraternity Lambda Theta Phi was to throw a Sept. 15 party at UW-Madison, Banuelos, 27, who is also a student at the university, came across a Facebook post that advertised the event as having "500+ capacity," even though the school's Tripp Commons holds about 300 people. Plus, the invite had gone to more than 3,800 people in different cities and states, Banuelos said.
The UW-Madison Police Department canceled the party a week and a half beforehand, citing security concerns. The national fraternity's founder said he's considering filing a lawsuit.
"It really was fortunate in a lot of respects that (Banuelos) was made aware of this and was able to bring it to our attention," said UW-Madison Police Department Assistant Chief Dale Burke. "You gotta find somebody in your organization that knows how to maneuver their way through those networks and understand the networks and language, otherwise you're going to be left in the cold."
Default settings
The incidents give credence to a 2006 study by two Carnegie Mellon University researchers that found students overestimate the amount of privacy they have on Facebook. Nearly half of 4,000 Facebook users surveyed gave the wrong answer when asked who could view their Facebook profiles.
"There seems to be some evidence that people don't necessarily equate putting stuff on the Facebook as publishing it to the world, which they should, because that's exactly what it is," said Ralph Gross, a PhD candidate in computer science who worked on the study.
University of Oklahoma freshman Kelly Climer probably didn't think about who could view her page when she posted a profile picture of herself holding an air gun as a joke. The caption read: "Beware of me."
After a student complained about the photo, university police officers told Climer to take the picture down and confiscated the air pistol because student code prohibits her from having it.
"I'm still kind of surprised this happened," Climer told The Oklahoma Daily. "It was just on Facebook."
Gross said Facebook offers users privacy settings that can limit who sees their profiles, but most users stick to the default settings, which are more permissive. He predicts that in the future, more users will either clue in to the privacy options or will stop posting so much personal information on Facebook.
"If you describe in detail that you're breaking the rules, then you shouldn't be upset that someone who cares about the rules finds out about it," he said. "Facebook is pretty good at giving you options and allows you to choose who within the network can see who's out there."
