American Tag-Team Wrestling is a 1992 wrestling video game that was released for multiple platforms. The limited storyline of this game deals with the fact that there is a tag team wrestling tournament going on. Each tag team is trying to win the tag team championship belt by taking down all possible opponents.
This section may need to be rewritten entirely to comply with Wikipedia's quality standards. (June 2013) |
Based on the style of wrestling practised during the 1980s professional wrestling boom, the game offered tag team wrestling as the game's attractive twist. Players can tag in their partner if they're weakened; wrestlers slowly recover outside of the ring for future play. Single matches and King of the Ring-style tournaments can be played. Some of the wrestlers are based on real World Wrestling Federation superstars like Macho Man Randy Savage, Hulk Hogan and The Missing Link. Each tag team consists of two team members who contradict each other; forcing players to analyze each other's strengths and weaknesses. While they look different on the character select screen, both tag team partners have an identical appearance on the ZX Spectrum version of the game.[2]
A huge selection of kicks, punches and grapples can be used in order to outwit the competition.[3] However, only seven are officially indicated in the ZX Spectrum manual.[4] Each round is timed, just like in boxing and unlike the actual WWF of that era.[5] There are also grudge matches that randomly appear after every tournament bout in addition to referee decisions that can go either way.[6]
Both players share the same screen while playing the game; allow both players to see each other without any distractions from a split screen.[7] While the game was released two years after WrestleMania VI which ended the 1980s wrestling boom; it is acknowledged that a lot of the characteristics are based on the family-friendly style of wrestling performed during the 1980s.

'Suspicious' fire investigated in Kingman
JC AMBERLYN/Miner
This home on Fairfax Street was damaged by fire Thursday morning.
By Ahron Sherman
KINGMAN - The Kingman Fire Department snuffed out a mobile home fire in the 3300 block of Fairfax Street early Thursday morning.
Two paramedic engines and the on-duty battalion chief initially responded, but after seeing the smoke and flames coming from the fire, the department dispatched a third engine, said Battalion Chief Bill Johnston. Firefighters confined the blaze to the mobile home, and no one was harmed.
Two people and a dog live in the home, which suffered extensive smoke and fire damage, but one of them was not home at the time of incident. The dog alerted the person who was in the home and both were able to get out safely, Johnston said.
Based on a preliminary investigation, KFD is calling the fire's origin "suspicious," Johnston said.
The investigation is ongoing and an update should be available today. Anyone with information about the fire is encouraged to call (928) 753-2891.

US 4806204 A Abstract The filter paper according to the invention is characterised in that it contains electrically conductive fibers which render it electrically conductive and able to allow the heating of the fluid to be filtered by the Joule effect. According to a particularly advantageous application, this paper may be used in filters for fuel supply circuits in diesel engines, in order to prevent the blockage of such filters at low temperatures as a result of the freezing of paraffin contained in the fuel.
Claims(6) 1. Electrically conductive porous filter paper for allowing the heating of the fluid to be filtered by the Joule effect, wherein said paper contains cellulose fibers and electrically conductive carbon fibers which render the paper electrically conductive, said carbon fibers having a diameter of 6-7 microns and a length of 6-8 mm.
2. Filter paper according to claim 1, wherein the said fibres are constituted by graphite fibres.
3. Filter paper according to claim 1, wherein the electrically conductive fibres are distributed in a random manner among the fibres of the paper.
4. Filter paper according to claim 1, wherein the quantity of electrically conductive fibres is between 1% and 50% by weight of the cellulose of the paper.
5. Filter paper according to claim 1, wherein the quantity of carbon fibres is between 2% and 15% by weight of the cellulose fibres.
6. Filter paper according to claim 1, wherein two opposite edges of the paper are provided with electrodes, each of such electrodes being formed by a wire of a metal which is not corrodable by the fluid, such wire being inserted in a series of holes of the paper, according to a sewing fashion.
Description The present invention relates to an electrically conductive porous filter paper able to allow the heating of the fluid to be filtered by the Joule effect. Among the various applications for such filter papers is that of fuel filters for diesel engine fuel suppy circuits. Filters of this type are prone to clogging at low temperatures as a result of the freezing of paraffin contained in the fuel. DE-A-27 21 607 discloses a fuel filter including an electrically conductive filter paper, able to allow the heating of the fuel, so as to avoid the above mentioned problem. However, in this known solution the filter paper is rendered electrically conductive by applying a coating of electrically conductive material on the paper. This results in inefficient operation of the device, since a relatively great amount of electric energy is required in order to obtain a given increase in the fuel temperature. Moreover, the porosity characteristics of the filter paper are negatively affected by the coating of conductive material. The object of the present invention is to provide an electrically conductive filter paper which allows efficient heating at low voltage of the filtered fluid to be obtained with small consumption of electric energy, the manufacture of such paper being relatively simple and economic. In order to achieve this object, the invention provides an electrically conductive porous filter paper, able to allow the heating of the fluid to be filtered by the Joule effect, characterised in that it contains electrically conductive fibres which render it electrically conductive. Tests and studies conducted by the Applicant have shown that the use of a porous filter paper of this type allows efficient heating of the filtered fluid and is relatively simple and economic to manufacture, as it will be shown hereinafter. Naturally, the filter paper according to the invention is useable not only in fuel filters for diesel engines but in general in any application in which it is necessary to heat a fluid passing through the paper. The nature, the size and the quantity and arrangement of the electrically conductive fibres of the paper according to the invention are chosen so as to satisfy various requirements: primarily the degree of electrical resistivity necessary to achieve a desired temperature rise. In the second place there is the need to obtain the necessary porosity of the paper (in the application mentioned above the size of the pores of the paper must be between two and five microns with 70% of the pores being about 2.5 microns). It is also necessary for the paper to have good mechanical characteristics such as to allow the subsequent processing of the paper and its use (in the case of the application to fuel filters the paper must be able to withstand the fuel pressure). The electrically conductive fibres may be metal fibres or non-metallic electrically conductive fibres (for example carbon or graphite) or non-metallic fibres coated with electrically conductive material or non-metallic fibres alongside and parallel to electrically conductive fibres. For example, glass fibres, refractory fibres or synthetic fibres of various types may be used alongside aluminium or silver fibres. It is also possible to use electrically conductive organic fibres, or organic fibres coated with a conductive material, or carbon fibres coated with metal, such as nickel. The electrically conductive fibres used in the paper according to the invention should have a length/diameter ratio greater than 100. The minimum quantity of the fibres which should be used is of the order of 1% by weight of the cellulose of the paper. The quantity of fibres used should not exceed a certain limit (depending on the length and diameter of the fibres) in order to avoid the risk of a substantial reduction in the porosity and mechanical characteristics of the paper. The maximum percentage of fibres is about 50% by weight, which results in a limited reduction of the filtering properties. If no such reduction may be accepted the maximum percentage is 20%. The electrically conductive fibres may be disposed randomly or in preferential directions of electrical conductivity or even in the form of a fabric. Moreover, the electrically conductive fibres may be randomly distributed among the other fibres of the paper; alternatively, it is possible to form a multi-layer structure in which at least one layer is constituted by a mat of electrically conductive fibres intercalated with layers formed by other fibres constituting the paper. During the manufacture of the paper, the electrically conductive fibres are added during or at the end of the homogenisation of the mixture before it passes to the conventional calendering process. It is necessary to add a binder to the bath (or during manufacture of the fibres) which allows binding of the fibres and the cellulose. The filtering paper may be also a sinthetic paper, made of organic or non organic fibres. The binder is preferably constituted by an anionic resin (for example polyacrylic) since the cellulose is cationic. When it is desired to form a multilayer structure in which the electrically conductive fibre mat is interposed between two layers of paper, the arrangement of the electrically conductive fibres is achieved between the calendering of the first layer of paper and the calendering of the second layer of paper. When it is desired to have the layer of conductive fibres on the outside, the disposition of the electrically conductive fibres is achieved before the first calendering operation. One preferred solution is that which allows the use of glass fibres coextruded with aluminium fibres. Each glass fibre is united with an aluminium fibre adjacent thereto. This solution has the advantage that even when several glass fibres break, for example as a result of handling of the paper, the aluminium fibres do not lose their continuity, ensuring constancy of the characteristics of the paper with time. Moreover, the glass fibres form a stable link with the aluminium fibres, preventing fusion of the latter. The thermal capacity of the glass fibres is in fact about twice that of the aluminium fibres, at least up to the melting point of the aluminium. The glass thus acts to adsorb heat ensuring a high current-carrying capacity. The quantity of glass fibre and aluminium fibre is preferably between 25% and 40% by weight of the cellulose fibres. According to another preferred solution, carbon fibres are used. In this case, quantity of the fibres is preferably between 2% and 15% by weight of the cellulose fibres. Diameter of the carbon fibres is preferably 6-7 microns and length is preferably 6-8 mm. Density of the fibres should be substantially equal to that of the cellulose fibres, that is 1.2 g/cm3, whereas density of the conductive fibres should be no more than 2.5 Kg/cm3. The surface of the carbon fibres is preferably provided with an organic coating (preferably polyvinyl or polyacetyl) in a quantity of no more than 1% relative to the quantity of conductive fibres. The present invention also provides a filter, particularly the fuel supply of a diesel engine, characterised in that it comprises a porous filter paper of the type specified above. The constructional details of the filter according to the invention are not illustrated here since they are known per se. Two opposite edges of the paper are provided with electrodes, for example by depositing a layer of conductive paint, or by glueing a film of copper or aluminium, adjacent to such edges, or inserting a metal wire in a series of holes of the paper, in a sewing fashion. In this latter case, at least four holes must be formed in the paper for a length of 4 cm. The metal wire may be a wire of copper coated with tin. In another embodiment, the electrodes are provided by glueing a strip of copper onto each edge of the paper. In a practical embodiment of the filter paper according to the invention, intended for use in a fuel filter for diesel engines, in order to form the electrically conductive fibres, glass fibres were used, coextruded with aluminium fibres with a diameter of 35 microns and a length of 25 mm. The aluminium fibres were 40% by weight of the glass fibres. The total filtering surface was 4,000 cm2. The electrically conductive fibres were connected to a 12 volt battery and conducted 0.43 A per 36 cm2 of filtering surface in order to achieve a temperature rise of about 30� C. The power consumption was 500W. The filtering capacity of the filter was 36 liters/hour. In another practical embodiment of the filter paper according to the invention, also intended for use in a fuel filter for diesel engines, a sheet of paper having a length of 4 m, a width of 9 cm and a thickness of 0.3 cm was manufactured, using carbon fibres as electrically conductive fibres. Quantity of the carbon fibres was 5% by weight of the cellulose fibres. The weight of the paper was 93 g/m2. A temperature rise of 15� C. was obtained after 1 minute with a power consumption of 140W and a fuel flow rate of 10 liters/hour. Naturally, with the principle of the invention remaining the same, constructional details and embodiments may be varied widely with respect to that described and illustrated purely by way of example, without thereby departing from the scope of the present invention.

LAS VEGAS (AP) — Denver Broncos safety Quinton Carter was confused by the rules of a craps game, and wasn't trying to cheat before he was arrested at a Las Vegas-area casino, his attorney said Monday.
Broncos' Quinton Carter denies Vegas casino charge
Defense attorney Andrew Leavitt called Carter's arrest March 9 at the Texas Station casino in North Las Vegas the result of "an absolute misunderstanding."
"He was confused when he made the bet," Leavitt told The Associated Press. "He didn't know how to play the game. He wasn't trying to cheat anyone."
Leavitt appeared Monday before a North Las Vegas judge who postponed action in the case until April 18. Carter didn't appear in court. Leavitt said his client was out of the country on Monday.
Carter faces three felony charges of fraudulent act in a gaming establishment. Security officials reported he was videotaped adding a $5 chip to three bets after the dice had already rolled. Carter denied wrongdoing when police arrived. Each charge carries a possible sentence of one to six years in prison and a $10,000 fine.
Leavitt said he was trying to negotiate a resolution of the case before Carter appears in court.

A scenic drive along vineyards on the beautiful Gold Coast found us in Mielen where we boarded a ferry which took us over Lake Zurich, a great experience. A further beautiful drive took us to the cable car station where we headed up to Felsenegg for exquisite views over the whole of Zurich and the lake. Spectacular! Excellent hot chocolate, the restaurants terrace, spectacular views...all just fabulous .

Dow names leaders for plastics businesses
September 8, 2014 3:18 pm ET
Recent changes made by Dow Chemical Co. will affect the leadership ranks of the firm's plastics businesses.
Recent changes made by Dow Chemical Co. will affect the leadership ranks of the firm's plastics businesses.
A recent decision to discontinue operations at a plastics waste-to-oil site in Portland, Ore., is not impacting a pilot program aimed at hard-to-recycle plastics in California.
Guangdong Jinming Machinery Co. Ltd. said it is poised to becoming the first Chinese machinery manufacturer to master polyvinylidene chloride (PVDC) processing technology, thanks to a licensing agreement with Dow Chemical Co.
After months of inactivity, North American PE makers have announced attempts to raise prices by 3 cents per pound effective Sept. 1.
Dow Chemical Co. could lose more than 200 million pounds of ethylene production as a result of an unplanned outage July 22 at its plant in Fort Saskatchewan, Alberta.
Dow Chemical Co. has reported its second quarter figures, with its seventh consecutive quarter of growth, according to the company.
AUBURN HILLS, MICH. — An adhesive product made by Dow Automotive Systems, a Dow Chemical Co. business unit, was recognized by R&D Magazine as one of the 100 most technologically significant products introduced in the past year.
Dow Packaging and Specialty Plastics is introducing a handful of new products and initiatives in Argentina this year aimed at recycling and waste reduction, including a standup pouch for liquids made for the first time from 100 percent polyethylene.
PP prices drop again, Dow gets involved in bringing more flexible packaging into the reuse and recycling stream and we remember plastics pioneer Stephanie Kwolek, the inventor of Kevlar, on this week's Materials Insights.
Dow Chemical Co.'s global vice president polyurethanes Mark Bassett urged delegates and visitors to Urethanes Technology International's UTECH's North American exhibition and conference to collaborate more.

Spread the Word about Pet Adoption with Petfinder
There's no pet in the world like the one you have when you're a kid -- the dog that follows you everywhere, the cat that snuggles with you on movie night, that first goldfish you won at the school fair. And with Petfinder's Adopt the Internet Day campaign, you can help spread the word about the hundreds of sweet, lovable pets that are ready to be adopted.
On March 15 -- Petfinder's 15th birthday -- the site is getting the word out about pet adoption with blog badges, an online pledge, and the opportunity for supporters to "donate" their Facebook status to an image and message from a waiting pet.
View the Adopt-the-Internet Petfinder Gallery
But why adopt? Buying a pet from a pet store can open you up to a lot of iffy behavior -- both from the sellers, who often consider the animals "inventory," and from the breeders, since you have no way of knowing what conditions that animal was born into (think cramped, dirty cages; no vet care; and health problems). And while purchasing a pet makes you think you're rescuing the animal, you could also be funding those facilities.
Petfinder also put together a list of common misconceptions about pet adoption that addresses all those "what ifs" that you have in mind when you walk into a shelter: What if I don't know the breed? What if they don't have the kind of dog I want? Why would I adopt a pet that someone else gave up? In the long run, the workers at the shelter want those animals to go the home that's right for them -- and they're as serious about finding a family that's the right fit for a cat or dog as they are about finding a cat or dog whose personality is a match for you.

I'm having an issue with a Perl script relating to the Weather Research Forecast (WRF) model configuration. The script in question is a part of the download located here (login required, simple signup). If you download the most recent WRF-NMM core, in the unzipped directory is arch/Config_new.pl. The error that I'm having lies somewhere within lines 262-303:
until ( $validresponse ) {
print "------------------------------------------------------------------------\n" ;
print "Please select from among the following supported platforms.\n\n" ;
$opt = 1 ;
open CONFIGURE_DEFAULTS, "< ./arch/configure_new.defaults"
or die "Cannot open ./arch/configure_new.defaults for reading" ;
while ( <CONFIGURE_DEFAULTS> )
for $paropt ( @platforms )
if ( substr( $_, 0, 5 ) eq "#ARCH"
&& ( index( $_, $sw_os ) >= 0 ) && ( index( $_, $sw_mach ) >= 0 )
&& ( index($_, $paropt) >= 0 ) )
$optstr[$opt] = substr($_,6) ;
$optstr[$opt] =~ s/^[ ]*// ;
$optstr[$opt] =~ s/#.*$//g ;
chomp($optstr[$opt]) ;
$optstr[$opt] = $optstr[$opt]." (".$paropt.")" ;
if ( substr( $optstr[$opt], 0,4 ) ne "NULL" )
print " %2d. %s\n",$opt,$optstr[$opt] ;
$opt++ ;
close CONFIGURE_DEFAULTS ;
$opt -- ;
print "\nEnter selection [%d-%d] : ",1,$opt ;
$response = <STDIN> ;
if ( $response == -1 ) { exit ; }
if ( $response >= 1 && $response <= $opt )
{ $validresponse = 1 ; }
{ print("\nInvalid response (%d)\n",$response);}
Specifically, I am sent to an input line without any kind of prompting or list of what my options are. Only after I select a valid choice am I presented with the previous options. This is repeated a second time with another chunk of code further down (lines 478-528). What's got me confused is that, when I entered debugging mode, I inserted a break before the start of this portion of code. I ran p $validresponse
and got the following:
If you REALLY want Grib2 output from WRF, modify the arch/Config_new.pl script.
Right now you are not getting the Jasper lib, from the environment, compiled into WRF.
This intrigues me, as the paragraph is from a printf
from several lines before. In this particular script, it is the only printf that has run so far, but why the output was saved to the next created variable is beyond me. Any suggestions?
EDIT: After looking at choroba's suggestion, the same problem occurs with any type of redirection, whether piping, using tee
, or stderr/stdout redirection. As such, I'm thinking it may be a problem with bash? That is, the only way I can run it is without any kind of logging (at least to my knowledge, which is admittedly quite limited).

"Invictus," Clint Eastwood's latest directorial effort, is a well made inspirational film with an important message, but it falls short of greatness.
The story is about South Africa after apartheid and the struggle to keep the racially divided country together. Nelson Mandela (Morgan Freeman) is the newly elected president who has been given this task. With mass poverty, an economic crisis, and open hatred between the races, he decides to focus on South Africa's rugby team. He enlists their captain, Francois Pienaar (Matt Damon), to motivate his team to win the rugby world cup, which is a much bigger deal in the rest of the world than it is in North America.
"Invictus" is not just a motivational sports movie, though. The focus is more on the political side of things.
As Mandela enters the office for the first day of his presidency, most of the white office workers are packing up and leaving, assuming they are to be fired. Mandela allows them all to stay and he also makes a point to diversify his security staff (more on them later). He realizes that these small-scale changes will not accomplish much and he finds his solution at an appearance at a rugby match.
Mandela notices that the white fans cheer for South Africa and the black fans cheer for England (or whoever happens to be playing South Africa), which is exactly what he did when he was imprisoned. Mandela realizes that "petty revenge" won't solve anything, so instead of doing away with the team's traditions, he encourages all of South Africa to embrace the team.
This sounds all well and good, but it's a bit hard to get into a movie in which all the action takes place through a sport that is obscure at best to an American audience. I understood that the games were about more than winning, but I had almost no idea what was going on during the matches. This is actually a joke in the film as the black characters in the film are just as baffled by the game as the audience in the theater.
I get the joke, but I wanted multiple, intense rugby scenes that focus on the simpler parts of the game rather than a few gags in which characters ask, "What happened? Is that good?" Eastwood does accomplish this in the final game with some great sound work and slow motion, but it was too little too late for the rugby.
Regardless of the cultural divide, the importance of the games is easy to understand. I may not have understood what was happening most of the time, but I knew how I felt when it was over.
This is one of the most hopeful, uplifting movies I have seen in recent memory. In a cinematic world that seems to focus more and more on misery, death and violence, it was nice to watch a movie about human beings who overcome hate. Is that sappy? Maybe, but it's also refreshing.
But the movie does crossover into extremely sappy territory when it comes to song selection. Eastwood goes with an original song titled "Colorblind" that features lyrics such as, "it's not just a game." The music is too obvious and it's stating things that Eastwood has already accomplished.
The musical missteps and confusing rugby scenes aside, this is a solid film.
Freeman and Damon strengthen the film immensely. I don't think they'll win Oscars for their work or anything, but they do carry the film very well. Freeman is great, (as he should be, since Mandela himself has said that Freeman is the only actor who could play him) but his performance is really just a great impersonation. He does convey a presidential authority in every scene, though, and he made the film amusing at times.
Damon is fine; it's just that his character didn't have much to do. His performance in "The Informant!" was much more impressive.
What makes this movie a bit more interesting, though, is the fact that the focus isn't solely on Mandela and Pienaar. A subplot about the newly diverse security detail supplies much of the heart of the film. Add to that subplot scenes of the rugby players teaching kids about the sport, a child trying to listen to the game alongside police officers and regular people coming together to watch the championship game and you have an encompassing picture of how important that one rugby match was to an entire country.
Despite the slight missteps, Eastwood crafts an inspirational film that manages to (barely) get past an audience's ignorance of rugby and show that a country can overcome severe differences, with the help of some born leaders and a common goal, even if that goal involves a sport in which it is really hard to tell how goals are scored.

While I think the upcoming HandMarket Apps store on Windows Mobile device is looking great, I agree with Stacey over at GigaOM that carrier-branded and online distributor stores may present more confusion in the mobile application market and we could end up back where we started with several software distributors, except now on your phone rather than on the desktop. I think Apple is successful with the App Store because it is the only way to get apps on your iPhone/iPod touch and the process is made extremely easy for the consumer. Others are trying to model this success, but I don't think a fractured market is the way to do it.
Apple is approaching its first birthday of the App Store tomorrow and with something close to 60,000 available apps there is something for everyone. I received a press release today for an application that I thought would be useful to those in the customer service industry and may also be interesting for others in the business world. Disney at Work: Magic Kingdom was written by J. Jeff Kober (check out his Disney at Work blog) to provide businesses with information and tools on how to improve their organization internally and externally. The application is available on iTunes for $4.99 and works with the iPhone and iPod Touch.
Maybe it's me, but I don't get why everyone seems to be bent out of shape over Apple's decision to block the Palm Pre from synchronizing with iTunes.Here's what's important to remember: iTunes is free software provided by Apple to manage the music - as well as movies, TV shows, apps and so on - that plays on an iPod and iPhone.
As we approach the June WWDC event and the expectation that Apple will roll out iPhone OS 3.0 along with some possible new hardware, the rumors of what else may be in the OS update heat up. The latest speculation is that Apple will allow one or two 3rd party apps to run in the background. Currently, Apple lets you run the iPod music functions in the background, but no 3rd party apps have this capability. The servers side notification support coming in iPhone 3.0 may address the needs for some apps, such as IM apps, but there are still some others that would benefit from running in the background on the iPhone.
Apple iPhone and iPod touch owners have now downloaded applications more than 1 billion times in the nine months that the App Store has been live. Anyway you slice it, that is a fantastic achievement. According to a well written TechCrunch article that works out to an average of about 27 apps per device. I personally have downloaded over a hundred different apps and some more than once so I probably account for at least a couple hundred downloads myself. There are still a few problems with the App Store and with something over 32,000 apps in the App Store it is a daunting task to find apps you need or want to try.

Listen to voice of reason
- Published: 20 Oct 2013 at 00.00 | Viewed: 2,121 | Comments: 12
- Newspaper section: News
Former deputy prime minister and finance minister MR Pridiyathorn Devakula last Tuesday submitted an open letter to Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra that called for the end of the controversial rice-pledging scheme and suggested direct payments to farmers instead. At last a voice of reason, but will it be listened to when the government's mantra is ''We have never done anything wrong''?
Paying directly to farmers was a policy of the much-criticised Democrat Party. Will the Pheu Thai Party suffer the embarrassment of admitting it was a better idea for the good of the country?

VIEWS: 259 PAGES: 3 CATEGORY: Other POSTED ON: 9/1/2009
Lifecell cream is designed to attack all signs of aging including fine lines, wrinkles, skin discolorations, crow's feet, sagging skin, under-eye puffiness and dark circles, thin lips and feather-like lines around the mouth.
The Best "All In One" Anti-Aging/Anti-Wrinkle Cream is now FREE Be glad you found this because for a limited time only, you can try LifeCell's $190 value age-defying, intensive firming, 'all-in-one' skin care treatment for free. Comes with a 4 month money back guarantee and a huge $400 bonus package . Have you heard about the powerful anti aging cream on the market called LifeCell? If you shop for cosmetics at your favorite department store or specialty shop you may not be aware of it. However, LifeCell is becoming well-known on the Internet as being one of the best all around skin care treatment. Until recently, you had to know someone to get your hands on this product. It's still not available in stores but can finally be purchased by consumers through the company's website. Although the website is comprehensive and chock-full of the benefits you can expect from LifeCell skin cream, I must warn you that it's not suitable for everyone. Before making its debut online, Life Cell skin cream was busy making Hollywood's finest look movie and picture-ready at a moments notice. More than a simple wrinkle reduction cream, this new sensation was treating all the common signs of aging such as dark under-eye circles and bags under the eyes, sagging skin and age spots. Oh, and a benefit the female models and actresses were especially excited about was the way it made their lips look - it gave them that signature sexy pout so many have become famous for. Do not bother with LifeCell if you fit any of the following situations 1. Under 20 years old - If you're less than 20, and possibly less than 30, there is no reason you need this powerful anti aging product. Granted, the years between 20 and 30 are different for everyone so I can't say for sure whether those in this age group would benefit or not... it's a highly individual choice. In general, if you're closer to 30 you're more likely to need it than if you're just barely 25. Younger women (and men) should focus on preventing future damage and premature aging by practicing the basics of good skin care during these years. 2. You only have 1 or 2 signs of aging - Lifecell cream is designed to attack all signs of aging including fine lines, wrinkles, skin discolorations, crow's feet, sagging skin, under-eye puffiness and dark circles, thin lips and feather-like lines around the mouth. It also contains ingredients that encourage your skin to regenerate and continue to produce new skin cells. While you will save a lot of money when you replace multiple products with this allin-one skin treatment, if you only have one issue you could simply buy one product to address that particular problem for now. If, on the other hand, you have many different indications of aging skin, you'll be thrilled with LifeCell and what it can do for you. 3. Looking young is not important to you - Some people don't mind looking their age or even a few years older than they really are. If you simply want to "age gracefully" and forget about smoothing out wrinkles, firming up a sagging complexion and looking 10 to 20 years younger than your actual age, LifeCell anti wrinkle cream should not be part of your skin care program. It is guaranteed to make you look younger. Click here to Claim your FREE Bottle
