Very, VERY yellow... use for SERIOUS blemishes only, it doesn't blend very well. Thick & creamy, so good for covering blemishes; but it tends to crease & look cakey on the under eye circles.
Also it broke me out.

i got this from my auntie when i was starting with make up for acne....
its been about three yrs, and i'm just finishing off that first tube i got from her.
i love it so much more than every other concealer ive used....
its heavy, so i use it on scars and acne, but skip it for under eye...
i got it in beige 1, which was too light for me, so im gonna go darker when i buy the next tube....
it covers really well..... since its so heavy, it really works...
i still have to go to PE and it never runs, even during the 12 min run...
EDIT: ok, so I didn't buy this again, instead I am using maybellines dream mousse concealer, mainly because I don't know a Mary kay seller anymore, so dream mousse is more widely available... I took off a lippie cuz I like dream mousse better.

This is the perfect concealer for BLEMISHES. It may be a bit too thick for under the eyes (it's similar to the consistency of warm peanut butter) and requires PATTING, not swiping, for even and blended coverage. I say that it's good for blemishes because the thickness makes it super pigmented, unlike watery concealers that go on sheer and don't do the actual job a concealer should do, which is to cover up... to conceal! This concealer covers up color very well (redness), and is thick enough that it smooths out uneven texture when patted on evenly... and again, I mean that, PATTED. You won't get even coverage by smearing it on, you must gently pat until blended. Also, a little goes a LONG WAY, I mean, you barely need a pin-point-size dab to cover an entire blemish, making this stuff last FOREVER and you get your money's worth. I've used this concealer on blemishes without anything on top to set (foundation, powder, etc.) and it lasted me a 9-hour day at work (sweaty and hectic) without wearing off (keep in mind my skin is not that oily). I also used it on blemishes before going out dancing, having applied liquid foundation and super light powder on top to set, and once again, lasted me a whole night of super sweaty dancing. In other words, staying power is great, with or without a set. The good thing about this line is that it comes in many tones -- warm, cool, yellow, etc. -- so you're bound to find one that at least comes darn close to what you need. I'm a medium olive tone, and beige 1 works good for my yellow-undertoned skin. Can't believe I used a watery concealer for so long, this one's the bomb.

Age: 25-29 Skin: Sensitive, Fair Hair: Blond Eyes: Blue
I never quite understood if this is the concealer in the black tube or the one that says "signature" because the pictures uploaded are two different concealers (??). I tried the black tube in the lightest shade and unfortunately it wasn't as good as I had hoped. It came out a little too yellow on my skin, it's a little thick for me and not as easy to blend into my skin or foundation as I'm used to with Lancome Effacerness. It actually seems like it never really blends in. It has a high coverage, but too much makes it look like a mask. So in the end, I don't know if the coverage was natural for me. The positive thing is that it's cheap so I didn't feel bad about it. I will stick to Lancome.

I have very dark under-eye circles and also very dark skin on my eyelids. This is due to heredity (thanks dad) and not lack of sleep or allergies. I have tried many concealers, and this one is the best so far. I use the "yellow" color, which does a good job of counter-acting the purple-y color of my circles. I find that I can build up the coverage, and it still doesn't look too cakey, as long as my skin is well exfoliated and moisturized to begin with. I'm not saying it's perfect, but it's the best thing I've found so far!

It's great! Creamy and provides great opaque coverage. I'm kinda new to makeup but its better than the cheap drugstore brand i tried. It is really great for under eye darkness. I don't get many zits, and I'm not wrinkly (yet!) so I can't comment on that. But overall great product and I got mine free because my mom used to sell so it works for me!

I love this product! I think $10 for a small tube is a great deal because you really don't need a lot. I use two small dots under my eyes and it hides the dark circles. I still have a lot left. Great product and worth the money!

I absolutely ♥ this product. A little goes SUCH a long way. They have weird shade choices, but they work great. I chose the shade Ivory 1 and it is a great match. I mainly use it for undereyes, mainly because i don't like to cover my blemishes up even more than I already have. But if I have to this concealer is GREAT for that too. I totally recommend this product for anyone, with any skin color or skin type. You can buy this product at www.MaryKay.com and find your local mary kay consultant. This product was around $10.00 US.

Model Packages Fall 2012
Spring 2013 Catwalkers: The Show Packages, Revealed!
The frenzy of Spring 2013 Fashion Week has barely just begun, but for models, bookers, and casting agents, the flurry of the season has been going strong for weeks.
Nowhere is there more evidence of that than in the season's show packages. Those glorious sets of model cards that each agency meticulously selects and designs — often with the help of a talented artist or graphic illustrator — to showcase who among their roster of girls will be available to walk the shows. The packages go out weeks before the presentations start, and not only do they serve as a way to introduce new models, they also set the tone for the whole season.
So which among them are our favorites for Spring 2013? Well, there's the quirky take on patriotism from One Model Management, the brightly hued, bloom-filled offering from Trump, and a whimsically drawn selection from IMG — complete with video featuring the contributing artist, Danny Roberts — for starters.
A peek at all those — plus the packs from Marilyn, Fusion, and more — here in the slideshow.

Barnsley suffer defeat in first friendly Barnsley went through an unbeaten pre-season last summer- winning eight and drawing one, but they have been defeated in their first outing this summer, with a pretty strong line-up going down 3-0 at home to Blue Square Premier side Mansfield Town. Ex Barnsley striker Michael Boulding, Ryan Williams and Justin Leonard were on the scoresheet against a Barnsley side which featured two of the new signings with another three on the bench.

I was tired of paying extra for a Vanilla Soy Latte at the Big Name coffee shop around every corner.So I purchased a CBTL Espresso machine and tried all of the capsules. I think the Premium Espresso capsules work best IMHO for making a Vanilla Soy Latte -- at a fraction of the cost.I watched how "they" made their Vanilla Soy Lattes and then tried it at home. I used to make a vanilla syrup that tasted like theirs but found my shortcut recipe to be equally as good but without the work or too many calories.I simply add one or two shots of espresso to a tall glass with 1 tsp of vanilla extract, 1 tsp of sugar, 1 yellow package of sweetener, 10oz of Vanilla Soy Milk, stir well then add alot of icecubes and enjoy. I actually prefer my recipe over theirs and it's affordable now that I can make my own at home. I love CBTL!

I have been purchasing the CBTL capsules for about a1 1/2 years now. I cannot imagine a morning without espresso! When I want a more full bodied espresso, I really like the premium. It does have a slight bittersweet finish but personally, I rather like it that way.This is my second favorite of CBTL's espressos (second only to the Continental espresso). Can't say anything negative about this product.

About Me Frequent Diner
A good Espresso with 1% milk but not as good as the Continental Espresso with 2%. If I feel like a coffee in the evening this is what I'll use, but I find the Continental to be more refined and richer. The Premium is still a good coffee though and deserves 4 stars.

"Read it, please. Straight through to the end. Whatever else you were planning to do next, nothing could be more important." --Barbara Kingsolver
Twenty years ago, with "The End of Nature," Bill McKibben offered one of the earliest warnings about global warming. Those warnings went mostly unheeded; now, he insists, we need to acknowledge that we've waited too long, and that massive change is not only unavoidable but already under way. Our old familiar globe is suddenly melting, drying, acidifying, flooding, and burning in ways that no human has ever seen. We've created, in very short order, a new planet, still recognizable but fundamentally different. We may as well call it Eaarth.
That new planet is filled with new binds and traps. A changing world costs large sums to defend--think of the money that went to repair New Orleans, or the trillions it will take to transform our energy systems. But the endless economic growth that could underwrite such largesse depends on the stable planet we've managed to damage and degrade. We can't rely on old habits any longer.
Our hope depends, McKibben argues, on scaling back--on building the kind of societies and economies that can hunker down, concentrate on essentials, and create the type of community (in the neighborhood, but also on the Internet) that will allow us to weather trouble on an unprecedented scale. Change--fundamental change--is our best hope on a planet suddenly and violently out of balance.

We now know more about Carlos Danger's body parts than we ever hoped to, yet oddly can offer no information about what his calves resemble. We can't wait for the Obamacare comedy tour, if only to see what doctors will say about Alex Rodriguez's injuries. President Obama is giving new speeches, but unless he's got a baby to name, there's no guarantee he'll get new attention. We are now wondering if Edward Snowden will leave the Moscow airport before or after Rand Paul gets a visa to visit New Jersey. Congress has just a few more work days before a five-week vacation, yet precious little "work" to realistically get done. And we can all agree that nobody pulls off the bald look quite like George H.W. Bush.
Here's a glimpse at some of the major stories your ABC News political unit will be tracking in the week ahead:
NO PUN AT ALL – The circus that is New York City politics is only missing a Big Dog – oh, and his wife, too. Yes, Bill and Hillary Clinton are among the prominent New Yorkers who haven't weighed in on the latest revelations regarding Anthony Weiner's more-recent-than-we-thought past. After Weiner's wife, Huma Abedin – the longtime Hillary Clinton aide – stood by her husband by standing up for him, Weiner kept his mayoral hopes alive. But Carlos Danger can't even count how many other women he sexted with, and New Yorkers have seen things that can't be unseen over the past few days. Whether Weiner hangs on is almost secondary to whatever private advice is flowing between the Clintons and Abedin/Weiner. As long as Huma's in, Weiner's money folks are likely to stick with him, though another few rounds of polling could change that.
DETHRONING KING- No, this has nothing to do with a certain infant prince. Republican condemnation for Rep. Steve King, R-Iowa, has been swift and striking, after King upped his anti-immigrant rhetoric by suggesting that large numbers of children of undocumented immigrants are drug runners. For every valedictorian among that population, he said, "there's another 100 out there that weigh 130 pounds and they've got calves the size of cantaloupes because they're hauling 75 pounds of marijuana across the desert." King, the most prominent opponent of comprehensive immigration reform in Congress, isn't backing down. But nearly all Republican leaders are backing away from him, with House Speaker John Boehner and Majority Leader Eric Cantor among those rushing to denounce his comments as "offensive," "wrong," "ignorant," and "hateful." That's a statement on how careful Republicans realize they need to be in not offending Latinos as the immigration debate makes its slow way through Capitol Hill. The very folks King was insulting – the so-called DREAMers – are those targeted for help in gaining citizenship in GOP-sponsored legislation that's expected to be unveiled this fall.
MARKED MAN MITCH – The marquis race of 2014, from this 2013 vantage point, is taking shape. Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., got himself a primary challenger this past week, in tea party candidate Matt Bevin, a wealthy Louisville investment manager. Next comes the formal campaign rollout, on Tuesday, of Alison Lundergan Grimes, Kentucky's secretary of state and Democratic top recruit after Ashley Judd gave the race a pass. The dual challenges will further squeeze McConnell as he seeks a sixth Senate term, in a race that will epitomize GOP challenges in the midterms. The would-be McConnell-slayers don't agree on much. But the 46-year-old Bevin and the 34-year-old Grimes will be making similar generational arguments against McConnell, at least implicitly. Grimes has already enlisted her grandmother, who's well into her 90s, to ask in a campaign video, "What rhymes with Mitch?"
HAUL FOR HILLARY – July 31 is a reporting deadline in the world of Super PACs. That means the first glimpse into the finances of the buzziest new such entity of 2013: the Ready for Hillary PAC. The group's has humble roots – it was organized by a former Clinton campaign volunteer, in the Virginia suburbs – but now features strong branches, with names like James Carville, Harold Ickes, and Sen. Claire McCaskill among those involved with fundraising efforts. The PAC's organizers say they're more interested in gathering names than building up a bankroll, and the self-imposed limit of $25,000 per individual means the group is unlikely to post eye-popping sums this far out from the election. But as the Clinton juggernaut takes shape, this will be another marker that other possible 2016 contenders will notice. Who knows, Hillary Clinton herself may be paying attention.
WORDS AND DEEDS (MAYBE) – President Obama's new push on the economy hasn't included much that's actually "new." The White House is promising, though, some "new ideas to create American jobs" on Tuesday, when the president travels to an Amazon facility in Chattanooga, Tenn. For all the hype, White House aides have made clear that this series of speeches is more about setting the stage for the fall – and getting the president's "groove" back before then – than it is about offering up bills that Congress would never pass anyway. To that end, Obama is jousting with this awful creature called "Washington" that he says has strayed from focusing on creating jobs during … well, much of his own presidency. With some Republicans threatening to shut down the government or refuse to raise the debt ceiling unless they extract concessions from Obama, the president gave a preview of his fall messaging when he declared this past week, "That's just being a deadbeat."

NASCAR: Brad Keselowski's phone OK
CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- NASCAR said Tuesday Brad Keselowski can keep his cellphone in his race car during events, and all drivers are encouraged to use social media.
Keselowski drew worldwide attention for posting on Twitter during a red-flag period in Monday night's season-opening Daytona 500. He posted pictures, answered questions and kept fans informed of what was happening during the stoppage that lasted just over two hours.
The tweeting gained Keselowski roughly 140,000 followers during the race.
But there was concern having a phone violated NASCAR rules. Teams are prohibited from having recording devices in the car that are not for competition purposes, and two-way communication devices are supposed to be analog only.
NASCAR said Keselowski had not violated any rules and can keep his phone.
"NASCAR will not penalize Brad Keselowski for his use of Twitter during last night's Daytona 500," NASCAR said in a statement. "Nothing we've seen from Brad violates any current rules pertaining to the use of social media during races. As such, he won't be penalized. We encourage our drivers to use social media to express themselves as long as they do so without risking their safety or that of others."

Bike hire* is available (*charges apply).There is so much to see and do in and around this popular area, whether it's a visit to the many nearby friendly pubs to sample the flavours of the local cuisine, a trip to the nature reserve to see rare plants and wildlife or for the more active the lodges sit close to the Yorkshire Wolds Way.
This park has:
Real reviews, from customers like you.
Beautiful place and the cabin was very well set out, however there were a few things that we contacted reception about that were never rectified even though they had set a time to fix it. Such a shame as had a thoroughly enjoyable tune otherwise.
Once we'd done a few bits & pieces in York there really wasn't much else to do.
A beautiful spot with absolutely nothing on site which is just perfect for us!
These Lodges are in a good Location but the road up to lodges are terrible Ok if you have a 4x4. Also photo's on line don't look anything like what you get when you arrive, Only 1 person Showing people to Lodges when we arrived & reception never opened all weekend. Poor Value for money.
Excellent stay, clean and quiet, perfect.
Very nice it very remote. Had problem with lighting was reset and told there is a problem with the decking lights which there would fix and not to turn on the decking lights until and this was not done. This i consider to be a danger as there was a lake at the end of the decking a real danger if small children .
Really nice lodge quiet location had an amazing time
we stayed in a feature bed cabin which was lovely.....only downfall was the road up to the cabins big potholes. Hot tub could do with a bit more privacy but didn't stop us enjoying it
We had a fabulous time despite the few niggles with the accommodation mentioned below, it is these issues that lower the score and make us reluctant to return.
Nice but wont be returning.
Beautiful well equipped lodge ideal for a quiet time away
nice location and quiet the lodge was about a mile from the nearest road which was good and the surroundings was very nice for walks.
we stayed in August 2014 and have just returned in January 2015,unlike our first visit the accomodation has sadly been neglected,ie cleanliness light bulbs not working door sticking shower unusable due to the door falling off,hot tub defects.Unfortunately a lovely place is being allowed to go down hill.
When we arrived we was shown to our cabin and the on button for the hot tub and then the lady quickly left. It took around 3 hours for the water to become warm we tried to ring the site manager on the number we was provided with which took over 1 hour for us to get through to her and she said it will take 30 minutes. The television channels wouldn't work on a evening yet the other cabins had their tales on fine.
We personally loved the location as we were secluded in a peaceful area with just the other cabins for company. There are no facilities on site (which we didn't mind at all) so we didn't see many members of staff, but the lady who checked us in was lovely and helpful, letting us know about the surrounding area, pubs, shops, York etc.

Offset Pivot Web Guides
An Offset Pivot Guide (OPG) is a displacement-type guide which provides web position correction with minimum entry and exit span requirements. Designed with parallel rollers, the guide pivots such that the web is twisted, thus minimizing web stress. This allows OPGs to be used in the least amount of space.
Fife OPGs are mechanical devices used to correct the lateral error in a web of material as the material runs through a process. The OPG corrects the error by displacing the web between the entry span and the exit span of the guide. The OPG consists of a fixed base and a pivoting structure with one or more rollers. The pivoting structure, referred to as a pivot carrier, rotates about a fixed or imaginary point called the pivot point. The angle of rotation is limited to ±7.5 degrees maximum. The point of rotation is ideally in the plane of the entry span or within 10% of the guide span of the entry span plane.
Products Include:
- FIFE-500 Web Guiding System
Introducing the FIFE-500 web guide for narrow web and nonwoven applications. This cost-effective guiding system is easy to use and install, while using new technology to help you improve efficiency.

Maximum allowed tension is 100N (22.5 lbf).
- Fife Symat 25 Offset Pivot Guide
The Symat 25 is a compact, versatile electromechanical system engineered for narrow-web applications where short entry and exit spans are required. This offset pivot guide is available with three standard roller faces: 160.0 mm (6.30 inches), 200.2 mm (7.88 inches), and 250 mm (9.84 inches).

- Fife LRB Offset Pivot Guide
The LRB offset pivot guide is designed for reliable performance using either an electromechanical actuator or hydraulic cylinder as a power source. Constructed with low-friction ball bushings and precision race rod supports, this versatile guide delivers low-maintenance operation for edge, line, or center guiding applications.
- Fife LRC Offset Pivot Guide
Available with hydraulic cylinders or electromechanical actuators, this dependable guide can accommodate web widths up to 3,100 mm (122 inches), and tensions up to 4,003 N (900 lbf).
How much should a web guide move?
Just because a web guide doesn't move a lot does not mean that it is not performing a critical function. Learn about how much movement to expect in different winding scenarios.
What type of web guide do you need?
Follow these three easy steps to determine which automatic web guide will help you control web off-tracking or lateral shifting.

From The Secret Garden Inn & Spa in Weaverville, NC
The Secret Garden Inn & Spa is a bed-and-breakfast and spa rich with Appalachian flair nestled in the picturesque mountains of Western North Carolina. It combines the area's Appalachian heritage with Asian spa rituals, as well as the beauty and peace of the property's Japanese gardens. Treatment duration: 120 minutes
Treatment cost: $169
Supplies needed:
Sea salt scrub
Grapefruit mint organic shea butter
Organic grapefruit mint massage oil
Eucalyptus oil
Step 1: Greet your guests, and ensure that they have completed an intake form detailing their medical history. Offer them tea or water for a refreshing introduction to the treatment. Those clients in the first trimester of pregnancy, or who are allergic to nut-based oils or citrus, should not be given this service.
Step 2: Escort guests to a treatment room, and ask them the disrobe and lie on the treatment table face up.
Step 3: After allowing a sufficient amount of time, return to the room and perform energy work, such as lightly shaking the body and breathing deeply to center both yourself and the client.
Step 4: With a light touch, apply the sea salt scrub to the entire body in order to exfoliate and awaken the skin.
Step 5: After removing the scrub, smooth a light application of grapefruit mint organic shea butter on the skin, wrapping each part of the body in a towel after the shea butter is applied to create a warm, citrusy feeling. The wrap should stay on for 15–20 minutes while you navigate around the body.
Step 6: After unwrapping the client from the citrus cocoon, escort to either a claw-footed or jetted tub, allowing the client to soak and relax for about 15 minutes.
Step 7: Now that the pores are open and the skin is alive and refreshed, ask the client to return to the treatment table and lie either faceup or facedown based on preference. Allow the client to smell eucalyptus oil when facedown to keep the nasal passages clear.
Step 8: Provide a 60-minute, full-body custom massage that fits the client's needs, such as Swedish or deep tissue. Use organic grapefruit mint massage oil, and turn the client over to complete the second half of the massage.
Step 9: Inform the client when the massage is complete, and invite the client to take time getting into a robe.
Step 10: Escort clients into a quiet meditation area to sit and relax in order to prolong the enjoyment of the treatment. Offer them more water or tea, and encourage them not rush off. Once they feel ready, they may lead themselves back to the reception area.

I'll start off by saying one of my favorite airplanes is the Republic P-47D Razorback. Affectionately known as the "Jug"
