Winnipeg Free Press - ONLINE EDITION
City cancels Exchange residents parking passes
Exchange District residents are losing their street parking passes because more turnover is needed for area businesses, a civic parking spokesman said today.
Some 130 Exchange-area residents have paid $25 per year for passes that allow them to park on any street in the Exchange for as long as they want.
Randy Topolniski, chief operating officer of the Winnipeg Parking Authority, said the residents will lose their $25 per year passes at the end of August.
Area residents have expressed anger about the change, with some saying they will consider moving, but Topolniski said area residents were given a year to look for alternative parking.
"It's not discouraging people (from living there)," Topolniski said.
"You have cultural, education, residential and businesses. I think this mostly is supporting the balance between all these groups to help the area become an extremely vibrant community."
Topolniski said the city is setting up a pilot project that will cost residents $100 per month to get two hours of free parking each day as well as overnight and long-term parking on three streets with underused parking spots.

So... Tezuka, the acclaimed "godfather" of anime and manga, was a furry? Looks like we all have a new fetish to aspire to, people!
Considering how much sex Tezuka illustrated in his various manga, this very well might be true for him. |

It's always a joy to me to see the rough ideas and sketches of animators and artists I admire! This is a real treat. I'm not much of a forum poster but I couldn't resist the urge to share some of my thoughts based on experiences I've had while learning the art of... well art!
I can assure you that 99% of all artist have at some point created "erotic" works of art, be it for personal use or for public consumption. However a lot of artists will try to hide the fact that they do such, and if some wish to profit off of such works they will do so under aliases. It's really not just limited to things considered "erotic" in nature. It could be things that they have a guilty pleasure of and don't wish others to know about, such as a person having a locked drawer full of Pinky Fluff Fluff Magical Kingdom of Rainbows merchandise when that persons peers recognize them for their love of all things brutal and dissonant. Think of the embarrassment that individual would have if their dark and trendy friends went rummaging through their stuff and found said merchandise? It's really no different for artists to do this. Since the job of an artist requires acting upon something from ones imagination, be it his/her own, or a clients, to bring it to reality so others can experience it, they need practice. How do artists practice, draw/sculpt/paint/ect... things from their own imaginations that they'd like to see. Since humans natrually think about things sexual in nature from time to time, many artists consider it good material to practice on, even if they end up destroying it or locking it away somewere after they're finished with it. Even Frank Franzetta has done erotic material. So with that in mind, there are MANY skillful female artists out there. As with some artists whom aren't afraid to show their erotic or fetish related works, there are just as many female artists making a living crafting these works as there are male. I've had the pleasure of being invited to private streams and events through word of mouth of both male and female artists making erotic comics and animations. I have to say it was tough to sit through some of these at first, as I'm extermely shy of the human figure let's just say, I found myself learning a lot being able to participate in those events as I could ask questions and get great advice from someone having success in the art industry! |

Based on a true story!

I'll try to have some more info on my blog and some production-related stuff in the next while, but first I gotta get back to work on some other things... FUN(?) FACT, we recorded all the music for this ourselves, and that really is Caxx "nyanning".

Thanks for watching, pls enjoy!
Well, I thought the animation and art on this was awesome, really smooth and professional looking, also the variety was cool, from the girly-cute jap style too the ending with the more creepy and stylistic so that's impressive, but in total honestly, I didn't find this one bit funny and I think you're talents could have been used if you worked on something with a much better story.

I'm looking for more info on this line which settled primarily around Iron Gate, VA, straddling the Alleghany & Botetourt counties lines. The progenitor, William Henry Bryant, b. Feb 1870 in Rockbridge Co., VA; d. 1952 in Iron Gate. But I can't find his parents, or even HIM in the 1870 census for Rockbridge! I specifically want his parents and siblings. Also trying find descendants interested in family history, especially in the Hill Top Cemetery in Iron Gate, where many of this family are buried. There are other families buried there and I'm wondering if they're otherwise related. Looking forward to hearing from someone! |

I've been on heroin for 5 years off and on. This time I've been using 7 months straight and was up to 1.5 grams per day. I went to a hospital to detox and left within 24 hours bc the suboxine wasn't working but it was making me throw up like my body was rejecting it... So within the last 3 days I have wheind myself down a lot but I bought some generic subutex on the street hoping to find something to kick my habit... But I need to know when like how many hours to wait? Do I just wait until I'm in withdrawal??Also how many milligrams are suggested?
How long do I wait to take subutex after using heroin?

Dear Kate, welcome to the site. Please google the COWS sheet, clinical opiate withdrawal scale, and keep that handy. After 24 hours of being free of all opiates including H, and a score of at least 26 on the COWS sheet quiz, then you should be safe to take the subutex. I will warn you that recovery is difficult and you should be seeing a subs dr and an addiction therapists. Thosenwho don't tke a dangerous shortcut and often relapse. I am not judging or fussing, but you will likely need guidance and medical help. Most of the subs horror stories and failures we read here are from those who aren't taking it correctly or coming off too soon. It is not a magic pill that heals a person quickly, like some hope. Let us know if you need more help. Patti

Police have released the 911 call that led to a SWAT standoff and deadly confrontation in the foothills Sunday.
"I've got a homeless living in our back area, we're next to the Sandia mountains, they've been out there for a month," the caller said.
The 911 call led Albuquerque Police to 38-year-old James Boyd. Albuquerque Police Chief Gorden Eden said Friday that the man had a long criminal past and a history of violence against officers. Police say for hours, they tried to lure him from the rock where he'd made a home, but they say he threatened them and had knives in his hands. Video shows the last moments of their confrontation.
A flash bang booms loudly. Then, an officer fires two blasts from a stun gun before two officers fire three rounds of ammunition each, according to APD Chief Eden. Boyd hits the ground before officers launch a bean bag and send in a K-9. It's unclear what measure ultimately killed him, and will not be clear until the Office of the Medical Investigator released their results to police.
The 911 call reveals more layers to the case.
"I had to call, I think it was three weeks ago, 'cause they had a verbal altercation out there... And, I think the police just drove down the road, I don't think they actually visited the site... But they're still there," the caller said.
An APD spokesperson says records show officers did respond to that call weeks ago, but didn't find anyone. The Albuquerque Police Officers Association says they can't comment on the case until the department finishes investigating, but they hope all who view the video keep an open mind.
"It's unfortunate that this man's actions put these officers in that predicament because I can assure everybody in the community that was not the first thing that was on these officers minds," Stephanie Lopez said.
Days after the standoff, the landscape is back to normal except for a homemade sign posted at the park entrance reading: "Sorry our system let you down."
Chief Gorden Eden said he feels the shooting was justified. He cited a ruling about using force when officers feel they're in danger. The two officers who fired three rounds each will stay on leave until the investigation is complete.

About Japanese Hot Stone Facials
A Japanese Hot Stone Facial is one of the most soothing and effective treatments around. These unique techniques are easy to learn and can be gracefully integrated into other facial treatments. Japanese Hot Stone Facial Massage also rapidly stimulates the nervous system to increase blood and lymph circulation, which helps to restore damaged cells and improve appearance.
Japan is an island formed by rapid volcanic activity. Thousands of Japanese hot springs filled with rich minerals have been known as healing places since ancient times. Many traditional Asian healing arts were born and practiced around these healing springs, such as acupuncture, moxabustion, massage and hydrotherapy. Each spring is filled with a variety of valuable minerals, which are traditionally known to heal many illnesses.
The therapeutic water that bubbles in these springs is quite hot, often just below the boiling point. Small streams seep into and mix with the springs lowering the water temperature. However, it is still very hot by western standards (about 110-120?XF). Those who soak in the springs often place cold towels over their foreheads to prevent heat-induced fainting. The springs also contain basalt and other volcanic stones, which readily absorb the heat from the water. Traditionally, smaller stones have been used to massage the neck, shoulders, and other tense areas. The art of Japanese Hot Stone evolved from these ancient hot spring traditions and was developed to introduce the same therapeutic value into contemporary therapy environments.
The Japanese Hot Stone Facial was created and designed by Shogo Mochizuki, one of Japan's leading educators of Shiatsu and Japanese Massage. This treatment uses traditional Asian stones known in Japan as yen stones. (Known in China as Pi stones). Yen means, 'rounded disk shape with a hole.' Traditionally many Japanese forms of currency were made in this shape. This is why these stones share the name yen with the modern day currency.
In traditional folklore the donut shape of these disks is known as the symbol for heaven. (According to ancient custom when you anticipate upcoming problems in your life, rubbing these stones or massaging with them will prevent the problems from manifesting). Due to this ideology these stones became a favored object and have been formed from many materials into jewelry and decorations for thousands of years. Yen stones have been carried as good luck charms and used for massage since the beginning of Asian culture.
For the past 1500 years, practitioners of Zen Buddhism have often referred to these stones as a symbol for Karma and the perfect state of balance. This shape represents the natural tendency of the universe to reflect an individual's energy back upon themselves and serves as a reminder of the old idiom 'what goes around comes around.' Therefore, if one is kind and generous good things will come to them and if they are mean-spirited and self-centered, ill fortune is the likely result. Many Shinto practitioners have adopted to the symbolic concept of this shape, and it is a common belief among them that these stones bring good fortune to their bearers.
We highly discourage the use of basalt stones on the face. The surface of basalt stones is far too coarse and will cause micro-scratches on the delicate facial tissues. Another drawback to using basalt stones on the face is that they are difficult to sanitize. The small pockets in their surface can collect excess facial product and bacteria, potentially causing bacteria to spread.
Why 'Heaven' Stones
1. Versatile Shape
During the creation of Japanese Hot Stone Facial Massage, Shogo experimented with many types of stones with varying shapes and sizes to determine which work best. After much testing, he determined that "heaven" stones would be the superior choice. The main reason is because of the hole in their center. This central hole becomes extremely important and essential for a smooth application of facial massage. Rather than gripping the stones edge, which creates unnecessary tension and a rigid application, you can place the tip of one finger into the hole. This technique allows very precise, nearly effortless control and extremely fluid gliding. Guiding heaven stones in this manner insures that you automatically conform to the natural contours of the client's face.
2. Nothing but Stone
"Heaven" stones are made from real gemstones, which retain heat well and are believed to have healing properties. A 'heaven' stone's central hole also allows you to give an entire hot stone facial massage without touching the client's face with anything but the stone itself. If you grip the edge of the stone, you are likely to contact the client's face with your fingertips. Performing a hot stone facial massage
with nothing but the warm smooth stone greatly increases the subtlety, smoothness, and relaxing quality of the treatment.
3. One of a Kind Techniques
The heaven disk shape allows you to lightly grasp the stone between your thumb and index finger to administer rolling, wobbling, and percussion techniques not possible with any other stones. Turning the stones on their side to make use of the rounded edge is an important component of a hot stone facial. Being able to apply many types of stimulation and create different sensations greatly enhances your treatment. Rolling wobbling and percussion are excellent ways of stimulating the nerves increasing circulation and reducing muscle tension.
4. Smooth Flowing Heat and Easy to Clean
Unlike basalt stones, 'heaven' stones are highly polished to insure a smooth application and create the sensation of flowing heat. Other stones can be difficult to clean as they often absorb oil or other products. 'Heaven' stones are non-absorptive so they help conserve facial product and make clean up quick and easy.
How to Heat Stones
The best way to heat the stones is with an electric heating pad, layered with towels. The stones take approximately 10-15 minutes to heat. If you are doing an outcall, your stones should have ample time to heat while you massage the client's neck at the beginning of the treatment.
You should not use hot water or a crock-pot to heat these stones for several reasons. First, this is an unsanitary method of heating. The combination of water and warmth facilitate the multiplication and spread of bacteria. This can be especially problematic when clients have acne or facial dermatitis. Second, wet stones repel oil and facial product. It is an unnecessary hassle to dry the stones and your hands each time you change stones. This creates undesirable interruption in the continuity of your treatment. Furthermore, 'heaven' facial disk stones are fragile and are likely to break if dropped. A common mistake when water is used is dropping the stones into the water and chipping or breaking them. Finally, the use of hot water increases the risk of accidental burns.
Likewise, never use a microwave to heat your stones as they will become brittle over time and break. Microwaving stones is one of the quickest ways to destroy them.
Some therapists purport that using a heating pad is undesirable because a heating pad causes electromagnetic interference. However, the amount of energy emitted by a heating pad is less than that required to heat water in a crock-pot. Furthermore, unlike basalt stones, which have been shown to retain some electromagnetic residue, the 'heaven' disk facial stones are extremely unlikely to hold much electromagnetic residue from the heating element because of their polish and makeup.
Adjusting Temperature Changing/ Stones
At the start of the treatment, be sure that the stone temperature is correct before contacting the client's face. Remember that stones, which feel lukewarm in your hands, may feel too hot on the face. Practice by testing the temperature of the stones either on your forearm or your own face to determine how to proceed with your clients. With practice, you will develop a better sense of what temperature is safe and effective. Heat retention will vary depending upon the size of the stones, but each stone will generally hold heat for approximately two minutes.
The Importance of Practice
Practice each technique until you feel completely comfortable and can apply it with ease. Once you master each individual technique, you can create combinations for a soothing, seamless treatment. While performing one technique, you may think about the next, based upon the client's needs and the goals of the session. As you become more experienced, your skill and confidence will steadily increase, offering wonderful sessions for you and your client.
It is important that you develop your own technique and style. In this way, Japanese Hot Stone Facial Massage will always retain its creative and inspirational element.

How You Can Help a Friend Get Through The Loss of Their Home
While this may be off topic as to what I do, it really isn't. What I really do is help people or facilitate them helping themselves. Thus, this blog is how you can help a friend who has lost to a fire.
The morning of October 27, 1993, I left my little cottage in Laguna Beach for a business meeting in Los Angeles. While at that meeting my home and all that it contained burned to the ground. What I wore and was driving was all that remained.
The loss of the physical structure was traumatic; the loss of all the things that defined me and had memories was devastating. The sorrow reached beyond me to my family and friends. Everyone wanted to help but weren't sure how.
Here are some of the things that helped:
Shopping for new things, even with the generous discounts offered by all the stores, was overwhelming. Many times I would wander through a store just to get the basics and walk out unable to decide or overwhelmed by the cost and just not liking to have to explain my situation once more. After several days of seeing me in the same cloths a girl friend went shopping with me. She helped mellow out my craziness, keeping quantities small, purchases appropriate and served as a buffer. She also could find the car after we were done.
Making Lists
One of the immediate requirements is to remember what you had and write it down. This is another painful and overwhelming process. Friends had me over to their home. Big yellow writing tablets were in every room. We began in the kitchen standing in a familiar room that would be equipped similarly helped me to remember things that I had like spices. Being with friends allowed me to be wacky or cry or both. As a team project, it's not so overwhelming.
Throw a Shower
My elderly aunts gathered up family and friends, and gave me a shower. After everyone was settled my aunts asked me to tell the story – that way, I only had to tell it once. The story was over and we moved on to opening gifts for my new life. I still have many of those household items each time I see them they warm my heart.
Honor the Person
I was active in a business group. The president of the group called to say that they were holding a luncheon in my honor. Everyone showed up. Again, I was asked to tell the story – once to 40 people. Then, over lunch, each person stood and gave a short talk about what they liked about me and how I had unknowingly added to their life. The message was, even though my stuff was gone, I wasn't and I have some value to a lot of people. It was a beautiful gift.
Have a Memorial
After a week or so, a group of fire friends got together at each one's place. Some wrote poetry, some sang, some had things to say, some just attended. We talked about the place. The person who lived there talked about what they liked about the place, what brought them there, what they miss and what they didn't miss, memories and things. We placed flowers, cried, hugged and when it was done had a picnic.
Support Groups
Encourage your person to get with a support group as soon as possible. These groups not only understand but there is a world of information that can be shared from insurance to rebuilding to health.
Gather Photos
Search your photo albums, encourage family members to search theirs, gather up photos, reproduce them and put them in an album. Be happy to go through the photos and all those memories.
Change the Topic
Sometimes you get stuck discussing the traumatic event. Gently change the topic. Perhaps some harmless gossip or a small joke.
"I Love You"
If appropriate, it's a lovely thing to hear in a time of crises.
Currently, I am a certified Reiki practitioner in the Usui line and am working toward my master's designation with my Sensei. I plan to tell you some things about this practice. But, for those who are unfamiliar, some education is in order.
Reiki pronounced "Ray´-Key" is healing and balancing energy transmitted through the hands that lifts your spirits and allows one to come into balance. When one is balanced one is less stressed. So, Reiki is relaxing.
Reiki, developed in the mid-1800's by Dr. Usui in Kyoto Japan, is the art and science of activating and directing universal life force energy to promote wellness and balance with a sense of peace and connection that resonates from within.
The Japanese characters represent the concept of "universal life force energy" Rei, meaning universal and Ki, meaning life force energy. Combine the two and you have a very powerful balancing and healing potential.
Reiki energy is whole. It is safe to use any time – any place. When in balance we have access to authentic self expression on all levels of body, mind and spirit. Our life path unfolds before us as we live true to ourselves.
Benefits of Reiki:
- Helps lift the spirits and bring balance.
- Benefits the receiver and the giver.
- Safe to use at any time on anyone.
- Works to heal the cause to eliminate the effect of imbalances.
- Not a religion and will not conflict with religious beliefs.
- Reiki may be combined with other therapeutic and healing techniques.
- Reiki does not conflict with medical procedures or medication.
- May be used on pets, plants and spaces.
- Beyond relaxation, Reiki brings a sense of peace and being centered.
- Used regularly, Reiki helps to lessen the affects of daily stressors.
- Once you are attuned to Reiki, you are attuned for life.
- Reiki is a simple, easy and safe way to help yourself and others.
Next time I'll write about the levels of Reiki then about Reiki sessions.
More on Serums
Serums are intensive treatment products that are applied, in small amounts, after cleansing and toning, to the entire face and neck twice daily. Serums should be followed with the appropriate sunscreen moisturizer in the daytime and nourishing moisturizer in the evening. Serums can also be applied before a mask.
In addition to serums that are just darn good for the skin there are specialty serums. That is, serums that treat specific issues such as hyperpigmentation (discoloration), antioxidant protection, skin strengthening, sun damage, fine lines, redness and acne.
By now, most of us know that vitamin C, when taken internally is a strong antioxidant and may help in the prevention of colds. Vitamin C applied topically in serum form offers antioxidant protection to the skin while helping to repair visible sun damage, minimize fine lines and strengthen the skin.
What may be generally unknown is that vitamin C is extremely unstable meaning that it can quickly lose its effectiveness especially when exposed to the air. Because stabilizing vitamin C is an expensive and scientifically challenging process not all vitamin C products are created equal.
The vitamin C topicals that I carry are all stabilized. If these products are used by their expiration date they will be as effective from first drop to last.
So now you know a little more about serums. Let's find out which are best for you.
The Reiki Session
Reiki is an ancient, totally non-invasive therapy that helps the body heal itself by working on mind, body and spirit. Even if you are in good health, Reiki offers a pleasant way to relax, relieve stress and to increase energy and vitality. A natural therapy, Reiki can be given even if you are already on conventional medication.
Traditionally Reiki is carried out on a therapy couch. However, a treatment can easily be adapted for a seated recipient. There is no need for the recipient to remove any clothing. To be comfortable, you should wear something loose and comfortable.
Before the treatment I ask questions regarding how you're feeling or if there are any specific concerns. It's just a friendly conversation where I gather information so that I may serve you where needed.
The treatment usually begins with the client on their back. The practitioner will either start the treatment at the head or the feet. I usually start my treatments with an essential oil or two to calm and soothe or perhaps address a given situation. I work mainly with the recipient on their back, however, at some point, I may ask the recipient to turn over depending on where I feel that the energy needs to go.
Reiki is a powerful healing technique that will continue to work long after the treatment is over.
A 'full' session lasts 60 – 90 minutes. If time is limited or we're being very specific, a modified session could be 30 minutes. Just so you know one session is not going to set you totally right. I recommend a series of six sessions twice a week then maintenance sessions.
You may feel heat, coolness or tingling from my hands or within your own body or you may feel nothing at all! Whatever you do or do not feel, you will receive exactly what you need.
There is no reason that these services cannot be combined. In fact, adding the Reiki will enhance these treatments by calming muscles and easing tension. Your entire body will glow as the Reiki goes where it is most needed!
Assisting An Elderly Family Member
My friend who is an administrator at a local senior care center sent me this list of things that you can do to help an elderly family member during a visit to their home:
- Look in the refrigerator… is there outdated food in it?
- Drive their car… check the state of the tires, oil, and antifreeze.
- Take a peek at the mail… keep an eye out for any unpaid bills.
- Investigate the bathroom…check for cleanliness.
- Take a note of how the pets are doing.
- Talk to the neighbors… a bonus is establishing a relationship with the neighbors and also someone to keep an eye on their home and them, even if just from the outside.
- Identify some benchmarks… consider marked declines from the previous year.
- Go to the source… This is probably the most important 'next' step. Take the time to sit down with your parent, listen to their concerns, worries and perceptions. Ask what you can do to help. As when dealing with any of life's difficult situations, oftentimes an individual (young or old) needs time to process a conversation, suggestions, etc. Give your loved one time to let your conversation sink in. Then, after the holiday, you can (as a family and 'team') engage in devising a plan for solutions that meet your parent's needs.
Everything You Always Wanted to Know about Reflexology
How Does Reflexology Work?
Reflexologists understand that reflexology helps release stress, which in turn helps the body heal and regenerate itself.
One theory is that reflexology works with the central nervous system. This theory builds on research done in the 1890s by Sir Henry Head and Sir Charles Sherrington, who began to show through their research that a neurological relationship exists between the skin and the internal organs, and that the whole nervous system adjusts to a stimulus.
According to the theory, the reflexologist's application of pressure to feet, hands, or ears sends a calming message from the peripheral nerves in these extremities to the central nervous system, which in turn signals the body to adjust the tension level. This enhances overall relaxation, brings internal organs and their systems into a state of optimum functioning, and increases blood supply (which brings additional oxygen and nutrients to cells and enhances waste removal). It positively affects the circulatory, respiratory, endocrine, immune, and neuropeptide systems in the body.
Another theory that may also explain how reflexology can produce pain relief is the gate control theory, or, more recently, the neuromatrix theory of pain. This theory suggests that pain is a subjective experience created by your brain. The brain does this in response to the sensory experience of pain, but it can also work independently of sensory input and create pain in response to emotional or cognitive factors. Thus things that influence the brain, such as your mood or external factors like stress can also affect your experience of pain. According to this theory, reflexology may reduce pain by reducing stress and improving mood.
Yet another theory holds that there is a "vital energy" in the human body. If stress is not addressed, it leads to congestion of energy, which in turn causes bodily inefficiencies, which can lead to illness. According to this theory, reflexology helps keep the energy flowing.
What about zone theory?
The recognition of reflexology as a specific type of treatment began with Zone Theory, in which the body is divided into 10 vertical zones. Each zone corresponds to fingers and toes all the way up to the top of the head. For example, if you are standing up with your hands on your thighs (palms facing down) the thumbs and great toe would be zone 1. On either side of the body, the index finger and second toe would be zone 2, etc.
In reflexology theory, every organ, valve, muscle, etc. that lies within a zone can be accessed via a point or area on the feet or hands. For example, working between toes 2 and 3, or fingers 2 and 3, the eye point is found. These pathways between pressure points and other parts of the body are thought to be connected via the nervous system, as described above.
The zones are similar to, but not the same as meridians found in Chinese medicine. However, there are some correlations with some meridians and the location of organs on the feet and ankles.
What are the guiding principles in reflexology?
There are several principles that guide reflexology practice.
Reflexologists do not heal clients; the body repairs itself. The reflexologist acknowledges that he or she is a participant in the session, rather than "the healer." As with all healing arts, it is important for the practitioner to center and ground themselves and then "get out of the way." This is an acknowledgement that reflexology is offered to help bring the person back into balance so that the body can nurture and repair itself. A reflexologist knows that the purpose of this work is to help the client's body come into alignment with its own energy and ability to heal.
Humans consist of a physical and emotional body, with a mind and spirit. These are interdependent. The reflexologist takes into account all aspects of the client's being: body, emotion, mind, and spirit. A relaxed body induces calm emotions, a serene mind, and an integrated spirit.
The body responds to touch which allows healing on all levels. Frequently, clients will think they have to "focus" or "concentrate" to feel the benefits. While being quiet will frequently induce a deeper feeling in the novice, the client needs to have no special skills or habits for reflexology to work. As long as the reflexologist has knowledge, stays centered, and allows the flow of energy to occur, the client will respond positively.
It is possible for practitioners and clients to feel energy move. A reflexologist can sometimes feel the energy move from a point of pressure on feet, hands or ears throughout body. For example, when working on the spleen and gall bladder points, the practitioner can access the points at the same time, and actually feel a flow of energy. Frequently, due to the power of these two points, the client can also feel the flow.

Essential Oils in the Garden
I became interested in essential oils because of love of good fragrance. Soon I learned that there was more to essential oils than good clean smell.
Three Signs of Premature Aging and How To Fight Them
Article is excerpted from Image Skin Care
Everyone thinks of fine lines and wrinkles as just evidence of aging. In fact, unprotected sun exposure, the weather and lack of skin care can all lead to skin aging. There are three major signs of aging. Learn how to combat their effects for skin that looks well cared for and youthful.
Fine Lines and Wrinkles One of the first signs that women in particular notice is fine lines around the eyes. The thin skin around the eyes is especially vulnerable to lack of moisture and sun damage. Anti aging products such as Image MAX Eye Creme and Ageless Total Eye Lift Creme can help tighten the skin around the eyes. I can help you choose an eye cream that contains moisturizing and natural ingredients to prevent future lines.
Skin Tone and Texture Another sign of skin that is aging prematurely is dull skin tone and rough skin texture. As we age, our cell turnover rate declines. This can lead to uneven coloration and dry spots. Choose anti aging products such as a daily face cleanser and face cremes that can resurface your skin. Ageless Total Facial Cleanser gently exfoliates to remove dull skin. Ageless Total Retinol A Creme works to rejuvenate skin texture by restoring collagen and moisture. Sagging Skin Sagging skin is often associated with aging, but it can occur earlier due to sun damage or weight loss. Preventing and repairing this damage is accomplished by using anti aging products that contain glycolic and retinol compounds to restore elasticity. Retinol (Vitamin A) is essential for aging skin as it helps to stimulate the fibroblasts which produce collagen. It is a key ingredient of the Ageless Total Repair Creme, which works to firm skin by combining both hydrating hyaluronic acid and Shea butter.
Overall Care The best defense against preventing the signs of aging is to begin a daily skin care regimen. Daily exposure to the elements and loss of collagen are unavoidable, but using the right cleansing and moisturizing products can maintain your skin's radiance. Schedule a consultation so I can help you choose a cleanser, anti-aging and repair cremes that work in combination to provide rejuvenation, resurfacing and repair.
Lips and the Aging Process
Without proper care, lips can age faster than other areas of our skin. Think of your lips as a sponge. "When exposed to moisture, they absorb water and plump up. When dehydrated, they dry out and shrink," explains Bruce Bart, M.D., a dermatologist at Hennepin County Medical Center in Minneapolis. Because our lips are always exposed, they're prone to dehydration, particularly during the cold, dry, winter months.
A major culprit of premature aging around the mouth is smoking. Besides the damage caused by the toxins in the smoke itself, smokers are more likely to develop lines around the mouth because of the repeated use of the perioral muscles to hold the cigarette. Smoking increases the hits of aging free radicals by about a million per inhalation. Generally, heavy smokers age 10 years earlier than their non-smoking counterparts.
If that's not enough, smoking decreases the secretion of oestrogen from the ovaries, and it also is thought to make the liver destroy oestrogen supplies (nicotine activates enzymes in the liver that metabolize sex hormones, speeding up the rate at which they are removed from the body), causing possible, early onset of menopause.
Our lips need more moisture and conditioning as we age. The cumulative damage to the lips and the skin resulting from years of overexposure to the sun, cold air and harsh weather pay their toll. The negative effects of the environment frequently result in the drying, chapping, and cracking of the mouth, and there's increased risk of inflammation, infection and burning sensations. Greater care of your lips can reverse the signs of aging and trauma.

Future Olympics could have less athletes and medals after International Olympic Committee (IOC) presidential candidate Ng Ser Miang said that a review of the cost and size of the Games will be a priority if he wins next month's vote.
The 64-year-old Singaporean also said he would look into scaling back the cost and procedures for cities bidding to host the Olympics and suggested potential new sports should use the Youth Games as a test ground before seeking inclusion.
''It is also about time for us to do a major review of the size, the cost, the scale and the complexity of the Games,'' Ng said.
''This will be one of the priority for sure. Even on the bid itself, the process. Whether we can make it more efficient, less costly with more

''But at the same time, when we talk about reducing the size of the Games there are more sports knocking on the door wanting to be part of it, so I think there is going to be a fine balance and we have got to find the optimum solution.''
Ng is up against Germany's Thomas Bach, Richard Carrion of Puerto Rico, Wu Ching-kuo of Taiwan, Swiss Denis Oswald and Ukraine's former Olympic pole vault champion Sergey Bubka to replace outgoing Belgian Jacques Rogge in the September 10 vote in Argentina.
Ng said that all aspects of the Games would be looked at and did not rule out increasing in the number of sports from the current total of 26, but with less medals available in each.
''There could be a review on number of athletes, different disciplines, there could be a review of disciplines in the existing sports,'' the IOC vice president and former international sailor said.
''There could be a more optimum allocation of scheduling of competitions. I believe that there are some opportunities there for us to look at so we have to, definitely, consider some of these.''

Rocky Boots: Men's 5698 Waterproof IronClad Work Boots

Rocky Boots: Men's 5698 Waterproof IronClad Work Boots
When something is ironclad, it's protected with the strength of iron. These Rocky 5698 Brown 9-Inch IronClad Waterproof Men's Boots actually aren't made with iron, but the name isn't literal. However, if any pair of work boots could be as tough as a pair of iron boots (which we don't recommend for wearing), it would be this pair.
These Rocky boots are built on top of a 7-layer IronClad system. That means you have layer upon layer of comfort to protect you from the hard ground below. The uppers of these waterproof boots only need one layer to keep you comfortable: full-grain leather. It's the good stuff. Full-grain is naturally resistant to water and flexible even in cold weather. Triple-stitching in the uppers gives your steps the strength of three threads, not just one, with every single stitch.
The lace-to-toe pattern of these Rocky IronClad boots goes all the way up the 9-inch design to give you customizable comfort. Full-grain is such good stuff you don't really need anything else, but Rocky's given you more anyway. These brown boots are built with guaranteed Rocky waterproof construction to keep you dry even in miserable weather. And to guarantee that you really won't be miserable, the inner lining actually wicks moisture away from skin. That means it draws sweat away from feet, so it won't just hang around. The soft lining of these Rocky moisture-wicking boots won't chafe, even when skin rubs up against it.
The IronClad system includes Air-Port footbeds. This time, the name is literal. The footbeds of these Rocky boots are designed to circulate air with each step you take, even as it cushions you against stepping impact. A flexible insole board supports a layer of soft foam to create a comfortable design.
Full-length cushioning in the midsoles, made from airy EVA foam, adds even more softness to the design of these Rocky waterproof boots. Tempered, ribbed steel shanks give your feet arch support and lateral stability for steadier, less strained steps. EVA pads in the forefront and rearfoot areas give your feet shock-absorbing comfort.
It all leads to the dual-density IronClad outsole, made with two layers of support. The outsoles of these Rocky IronClad boots give your steps traction and comfort with every step. They're attached with repairable Goodyear storm welt construction. The stitched construction is put together with waxed thread that resists moisture and even chemicals.
Fringed kilties, extending toward the toes, add one last touch of style to the design. Rocky 5698 Brown 9-Inch IronClad Waterproof Men's Work Boots actually live up to their name, and they don't even need real iron to do it. Put them on, and find out for yourself.

Customer Reviews For Rocky Boots: Men's 5698 Waterproof IronClad Work Boots
"Many thanks for your efforts, and those of your staff. I believe we spoke about ten days ago, when I called into the store to try and speak to a live person. You quickly got me pointed in the right direction and shortly thereafter, I was contacted by your staff and the matter handled. Of late, we have been dealing with numerous firms who have no one on staff, that appears to care about even the basics of customer service let alone, following through. This is clearly NOT the case with your company. I see your signature and title at the bottom of the message just received. Thank you for leading from the top, you have earned a customer for life! Thank you again!

Exec Formerly Known As "Comcast Frank" Has Some Tough-Love Advice For Company
Once upon a time, Frank Eliason was better known Comcast Frank, heading up the cable company's Digital Care team during a time when people began to realize that complaining on the Internet could get results. He left Comcast in 2010 to take his social media and customer service skills to Citigroup, but his legacy of giving a damn about customers remains. So after months of seeing Comcast make one huge goof after another, Frank apparently felt compelled to pen an open letter to his former employer with some good advice. [More]
Two Big Reasons The New Broadband Standard Is Bad News For The Comcast Merger
None of the big ISPs are happy about today's FCC vote drastically increasing the bare minimum that qualifies as "broadband."

Comcast Changes Customer's First Name To "A**hole," Is Really Sorry

Politicians' Letters In Support Of Comcast Merger Were Actually Written By Comcast
In the eleven months since Comcast announced that it would acquire Time Warner Cable, numerous local and national politicians have written to the FCC in support of the merger, claiming it will create jobs (in spite of the fact that thousands of employees will inevitably be made redundant), spark investment (even though Comcast could just invest the $40 billion instead of using it to buy TWC), and provide broadband access for the poor (a program that's been criticized as window dressing), without hurting competition (because there isn't any to begin with). Many of the letters hit the same points… almost as if they were ghostwritten and the politicians just signed their names to them. [More]

Comcast's X1 Platform Might Have "National Known Issue" Stopping It From Actually Working
Comcast is really pleased with their Xfinity X1 platform, the set-top app-running digital-tuning computer that is their latest interpretation on the cable box. And it does indeed do some nifty things! But it's also had some pretty bad, extremely widespread issues. And if what one customer service rep told a customer is true, it seems that far from being something sporadic and unpredictable, the problems with the X1 may instead be known issues that Comcast has yet to fix.
