I will agree, no coaching, but great exampling! I think the deep throat coaching key is to inform the newbie that the bodies initial reaction is to gag. There is no problem with gagging, as long as your prepared for it. You will gag! as long as she is prepped for it, then the deep throat training will begin. Most people can't brush their teeth w/out gagging, to have a beauty even trying is Out.Of.Control hot!!!!! And when it cant happen, make it the sloppiest BJ ever, while continuing to take it all.

Heather is a legend. She could be super rich just putting out instructional DVDs on her art. But damn, her friend is so hot. reminds me of the college girl I picked up at a Ravens game (I'm 48) who struggled mightily sucking my thick 7-incher down toward the balls (got about halfway before gagging). But just watching her so determined with the teary eyes and spit running down her chin made me drench her face.

Not just one blonde honey, Heather, giving you head but her friend too!!!! Christ what a dream come true. Jaysus the pleasure of seeing another woman sucking your dick in front of your girl and enjoying it, such a turn on and then your girl taking you all the way. Heaven all the way.

I really enjoyed using this rice cooker. It works amazingly well with oatmeal too. The non-stick coating makes for easy cleanup. It comes with a steam tray. It steams vegetables while it's cooking the rice. It's so easy to use.
I was very excited to receive this after reading the positive reviews. When I opened the box, it was a different style rice cooker ( w/o steam rack). I returned back, received my replacement, and it was the same incorrect rice cooker. Now, I am returning it back a 2nd time and looking for a different cooker to buy.
Did NOT come with a steam rack but, I got two rice scoopers! The rice cooker is nice looking and was a good price.
The product does exactly what I wanted it to; that is cook and keep a medium amount of rice at hand for two days. It's compact size is easily worked into my small apartment kitchen. The rice is well cooked and if the instructions are followed will not burn or dry out. My only negative comment is that it arrived without the steamer tray.
i enjoy using my new rice cooker it makes meal prep so much easier !
I did not try it. This cooker came without the steaming basket, which I wanted. The box it was in did not indicate that a steamer came with it but what I ordered did show a steamer basket, so I may have been sent a different product. Since it was not what I wanted, I sent it right back. Overstock is good about returns. It was quick and easy.
My family kept telling me how great they were, but since I've cooked rice for years very well, I could see not need. Now being older and lazier I thought that it was was time to get one. How right I was! Perfect rice every time - and it keeps it warm. Love it!!
Love the size! Very easy to use! I love the easy directions in the book.
I had purchased a very expensive brand name rice cooker from a retail store, several years ago. Only used it a couple of times because it spit water the whole time the rice was cooking and made a real mess. I was apprehensive about purchasing another one, but, the price was very reasonable and I thought it wouldn't be such a loss if I didn't like it. Well, I was pleasantly surprised with this little cooker!! It works great and cooks the rice perfectly, and does not spit water everywhere!! This is a great item, I am very happy with this purchase.

Vienna-style roasting creates a deep brown, medium dark roast that toasts the beans to perfection. Our Viennese Blend combines select coffees for a cup of satisfying balance and depth. Mellow, smooth, and delicately nuanced with hints of chocolate, our Viennese Blend draws on a unique style of coffee roasting in Vienna that dates back to 1683 when Vienna's first coffee house opened.

Alex's Heaven
For the last eight years I have concentrated on building my garden. When I purchased my home none of the structures or plants existed. Majority of work I did myself, except for hiring a contractor to build swimming pool, pond, and deck. All other structures, such as chicken coop, arbors, screened porch in the back of the property, and fence I designed and built myself.

The origins of the Finnish people are still a matter of conjecture, although many scholars argue that their original home was in what is now west-central Siberia. The Finns arrived in their present territory thousands of years ago, pushing the indigenous Lapps into the more remote northern regions. Finnish and Lappish--the language of Finland's small Lapp minority--both are Finno-Ugric languages and are in the Uralic rather than the Indo-European family.
Finland's nearly 700-year association with the Kingdom of Sweden began in 1154 with the introduction of Christianity by Sweden's King Eric. During the ensuing centuries, Finland played an important role in the political life of the Swedish-Finnish realm, and Finnish soldiers often predominated in Swedish armies. Finns also formed a significant proportion of the first "Swedish" settlers in 17th-century America.
Following Finland's incorporation into Sweden in the 12th century, Swedish became the dominant language, although Finnish recovered its predominance after a 19th-century resurgence of Finnish nationalism. Publication in 1835 of the Finnish national epic, The Kalevala--a collection of traditional myths and legends--first stirred the nationalism that later led to Finland's independence from Russia.
In 1809, Finland was conquered by the armies of Czar Alexander I and thereafter remained an autonomous grand duchy connected with the Russian Empire until the end of 1917. On December 6, 1917, shortly after the Bolshevik Revolution in Russia, Finland declared its independence. In 1918, the country experienced a brief but bitter civil war that colored domestic politics for many years. During World War II, Finland fought the Soviet Union twice--in the Winter War of 1939-40 and again in the Continuation War of 1941-44. This was followed by the Lapland War of 1944-45, when Finland fought against the Germans as they withdrew their forces from northern Finland.
During the Continuation War (1941-1944) Finland was a co-belligerent with Germany. However, Finnish Jews were not persecuted. Of the approximately 500 Jewish refugees who arrived in Finland, eight were handed over to the Germans, for which Finland submitted an official apology in 2000. Also during the war, approximately 2,600 Soviet prisoners of war were exchanged for 2,100 Finnish prisoners of war from Germany. In 2003, the Simon Wiesenthal Center submitted an official request for a full-scale investigation by the Finnish authorities of the prisoner exchange. It was established there were about 70 Jews among the extradited prisoners. However, none was extradited as a result of ethnic background or religious belief.
Treaties signed in 1947 and 1948 with the Soviet Union included obligations and restraints on Finland vis-a-vis the U.S.S.R. as well as territorial concessions by Finland; both have been abrogated by Finland since the 1991 dissolution of the Soviet Union (see Foreign Relations).
Finland has a mixed presidential/parliamentary system with executive powers divided between the president, who has primary responsibility for national security and foreign affairs, and the prime minister, who has primary responsibility for all other areas, including EU issues. Under the constitution that took effect in March 2000, the established practice for managing foreign policy is that the president keeps in close touch with the prime minister, the minister for foreign affairs, and other ministers responsible for foreign relations. Constitutional changes strengthened the prime minister--who must enjoy the confidence of the parliament (Eduskunta)--at the expense of the president. Finns enjoy individual and political freedoms, and suffrage is universal at 18. The country's population is relatively ethnically homogeneous. Immigration to Finland has significantly increased over the past decade, although the foreign-born population, estimated at only 2.2% of the total population, is still much lower than in any other EU country. Few tensions exist between the Finnish-speaking majority and the Swedish-speaking minority.
President and cabinet. Elected for a 6-year term, the president:
- Handles foreign policy, except for certain international agreements and decisions of peace or war, which must be submitted to parliament, and EU relations, which are handled by the prime minister;
- Is commander in chief of the armed forces and has wide decree and appointive powers;
- May initiate legislation, block legislation by pocket veto, and call extraordinary parliamentary sessions; and
- Appoints the prime minister and the rest of the cabinet (Council of State). The Council of State is made up of the prime minister and ministers for the various departments of the central government as well as an ex officio member, the Chancellor of Justice. Ministers are not obliged to be members of the Eduskunta and need not be formally identified with any political party.
- The president may, upon proposal of the prime minister and after having heard the parliamentary groups, order parliament to be dissolved, and a new election held.
Parliament. Constitutionally, the 200-member, unicameral Eduskunta is the supreme authority in Finland. It may alter the constitution, bring about the resignation of the Council of State, and override presidential vetoes; its acts are not subject to judicial review. Legislation may be initiated by the president, the Council of State, or one of the Eduskunta members.
The Eduskunta is elected on the basis of proportional representation. All persons 18 or older, except military personnel on active duty and a few high judicial officials, are eligible for election. The regular parliamentary term is 4 years; however, the president may dissolve the Eduskunta and order new elections at the request of the prime minister and after consulting the speaker of parliament.
Judicial system. The judicial system is divided between courts with regular civil and criminal jurisdiction and special courts with responsibility for litigation between the public and the administrative organs of the state. Finnish law is codified. Although there is no writ of habeas corpus or bail, the maximum period of pretrial detention has been reduced to 4 days. The Finnish court system consists of local courts, regional appellate courts, a Supreme Court, and a Supreme Administrative Court.
Administrative divisions. Finland consists of five provinces and the self-ruled province of the Aland Islands. Below the provincial level, the country is divided into cities, townships, and communes administered by municipal and communal councils elected by proportional representation once every 4 years. At the provincial level, the five mainland provinces are administered by provincial boards composed of civil servants, each headed by a governor. The boards are responsible to the Ministry of the Interior and play a supervisory and coordinating role within the provinces.
The island province of Aland is located near the 60th parallel between Sweden and Finland. It enjoys local autonomy and demilitarized status by virtue of an international convention of 1921, implemented most recently by the Act on Aland Self-Government of 1951. The islands are further distinguished by the fact that they are entirely Swedish-speaking. Government is vested in the provincial council, which consists of 30 delegates elected directly by Aland's citizens.
Military. Finland's defense forces consist of 35,000 persons in uniform (26,000 army; 5,000 navy; and 4,000 air force). The country's defense budget equals about 1.3% of GDP. There is universal male conscription under which all men serve from six to 12 months. As of 1995, women were permitted to serve as volunteers. A reserve force ensures that Finland can field 490,000 trained military personnel in case of need.
Political parties. Finland's proportional representation system encourages a multitude of political parties and has resulted in many coalition governments. Political activity by communists was legalized in 1944, and although four major parties have dominated the postwar political arena, none now has a majority position. In March 2007 parliamentary elections, the Center Party (Keskusta), traditionally representing rural interests, kept its position as the largest party, getting 23.1% of the votes. The Conservative Party's support increased by 3.7 percentage points, the most of all parties, and it received 22.3% of all votes, making it the second largest political party in the country. The Social Democratic Party (SDP) suffered a defeat in these elections and fell to third position among the larger parties, receiving 21.4% of the votes. Of the other parties, the True Finns, the Green League, and the Swedish People's Party were able to gain seats in parliament. The Center then formed a four-party governing coalition with the Conservatives, the Swedish People's Party, and the Greens. The Conservative Party received the portfolios of foreign minister, finance minister, and defense minister, among others, and became an important participant again after a long absence.

Finland has a highly industrialized, free-market economy with a per capita output equal to that of other western economies such as France, Germany, Sweden, or the U.K. The largest sector of the economy is services (65.4%), followed by manufacturing and refining (31.6%). Primary production is at 3.0%.
The Finnish economy has made enormous strides since the severe recession of the early 1990s. Finland successfully joined the euro zone and has outperformed euro-area partners in terms of economic growth and public finance. Following a period of sustained and robust growth, the Finnish economy has suddenly slowed. As the downturn has worsened in the wake of the international financial crisis, the outlook for 2009 is exceptionally uncertain. GDP growth is estimated to slow from 1% in 2008 to -6.0% in 2009. Unemployment will begin to rise, from an estimated 6.4% in 2008 to 9.0% in 2009. A relatively inflexible labor market and high employer-paid social security taxes hamper growth in employment. Labor bottlenecks are becoming more common in certain sectors, and this will increasingly restrict growth in output in the future. The main constraint to medium-term economic growth will be the drop in the population of working age once the post-war baby boomers reach retirement age.
Exports of goods and services contribute over 40% of Finland's GDP. Metals and engineering (including electronics) and timber (including pulp and paper) are Finland's main industries. The United States is Finland's third most important trading partner outside of Europe. With a 3% share of imports in 2008, the United States was Finland's ninth-largest supplier. The total value of U.S. exports to Finland in 2008 was $2.6 billion. Major exports from the United States to Finland continue to be machinery, telecommunications equipment and parts, metalliferous ores, road vehicles and transport equipment, computers, peripherals and software, electronic components, chemicals, medical equipment, and some agricultural products. The primary competition for American companies comes from Russia, Germany, Sweden, and China. The main export items from Finland to the United States are electronics, machinery, ships and boats, paper and paperboard, refined petroleum products, telecommunications equipment and parts. In 2008, the United States was Finland's fourth-largest customer after Russia (11.6%), Sweden (10.0%), and Germany (10.0%), with an export share of 6.3%, or $6 billion. However, trade is only part of the totality: the 10 biggest Finnish companies in the United States have a combined turnover that is three times the value of Finland's total exports to the United States. About 2.0% of the Finnish GDP comes from exports to the United States.
Except for timber and several minerals, Finland depends on imported raw materials, energy, and some components for its manufactured products. Farms tend to be small, but farmers own sizable timber stands that are harvested for supplementary income in winter. The country's main agricultural products are dairy, meat, and grains. Finland's EU accession has accelerated the process of restructuring and downsizing of this sector.
Finland's basic foreign policy goal from the end of the Continuation War with the U.S.S.R. in 1944 until 1991 was to avoid great-power conflicts and to build mutual confidence with the Soviet Union. Although the country was culturally, socially, and politically Western, Finns realized they must live in peace with the U.S.S.R. and take no action that might be interpreted as a security threat. The dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991 opened up dramatic new possibilities for Finland and has resulted in the Finns actively seeking greater participation in Western political and economic structures. Finland joined the European Union in 1995.
Relations With the Soviet Union and With Russia
The principal architect of the post-1944 foreign policy of neutrality was J.K. Paasikivi, who was President from 1946 to 1956. Urho Kekkonen, President from 1956 until 1981, further developed this policy, stressing that Finland should be an active rather than a passive neutral. This policy is now popularly known as the "Paasikivi-Kekkonen Line."
Finland and the U.S.S.R. signed a peace treaty at Paris in February 1947 limiting the size of Finland's defense forces and providing for the cession to the Soviet Union of the Petsamo area on the Arctic coast, the Karelian Isthmus in southeastern Finland, and other territory along the former eastern border. Another provision, terminated in 1956, leased the Porkkala area near Helsinki to the U.S.S.R. for use as a naval base and gave free access to this area across Finnish territory.
The 1947 treaty also called for Finland to pay to the Soviet Union reparations of 300 million gold dollars (amounting to an estimated $570 million in 1952, the year the payments ended). Although an ally of the Soviet Union in World War II, the United States was not a signatory to this treaty because it had not been at war with Finland.
In April 1948, Finland signed an Agreement of Friendship, Cooperation, and Mutual Assistance with the Soviet Union. Under this mutual assistance pact, Finland was obligated--with the aid of the Soviet Union, if necessary--to resist armed attacks by Germany or its allies against Finland or against the U.S.S.R. through Finland. At the same time, the agreement recognized Finland's desire to remain outside great-power conflicts. This agreement was renewed for 20 years in 1955, in 1970, and again in 1983 to the year 2003, although the subsequent dissolution of the Soviet Union led to the agreement's abrogation.
The Finns responded cautiously in 1990-91 to the decline of Soviet power and the U.S.S.R.'s subsequent dissolution. They unilaterally abrogated restrictions imposed by the 1947 and 1948 treaties, joined in voicing Nordic concern over the coup against Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev, and gave increasing unofficial encouragement to Baltic independence.
At the same time, by replacing the Soviet-Finnish mutual assistance pact with treaties on general cooperation and trade, Finns put themselves on an equal footing while retaining a friendly bilateral relationship. Finland now is boosting cross-border commercial ties and touting its potential as a commercial gateway to Russia. It has reassured Russia that it will not raise claims for Finnish territory seized by the U.S.S.R. and continues to reaffirm the importance of good bilateral relations.
Multilateral Relations
Finnish foreign policy emphasizes its participation in multilateral organizations. Finland joined the United Nations in 1955 and the EU in 1995. As noted, the country also is a member of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization's (NATO) Partnership for Peace as well as a member in the Euro-Atlantic Partnership Council. As a NATO partner, Finland has 110 troops in Afghanistan serving with a Swedish-led Provincial Reconstruction Team in the province of Mazar-e-Sharif, working to create a secure environment for reconstruction in northern Afghanistan. It has temporarily doubled its forces to support the presidential elections in Afghanistan.
Finland is well represented in the UN civil service in proportion to its population and belongs to several of its specialized and related agencies. Finnish troops have participated in UN peacekeeping activities since 1956, and the Finns continue to be one of the largest per capita contributors of peacekeepers in the world. Finland is an active participant in the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) and in early 1995 assumed the co-chairmanship of the OSCE's Minsk Group on the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict. Finland chaired the OSCE in 2008 and is part of the Chairmanship Troika in 2009.
Cooperation with the other Scandinavian countries also is important to Finland, and it has been a member of the Nordic Council since 1955. Under the council's auspices, the Nordic countries have created a common labor market and have abolished immigration controls among themselves. The council also serves to coordinate social and cultural policies of the participating countries and has promoted increased cooperation in many fields.
In addition to the organizations already mentioned, Finland became a member of the following organizations: Bank for International Settlements, 1930; International Monetary Fund, 1948; International Bank for Reconstruction and Development, 1948; General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT), 1950; International Finance Corporation, 1956; International Development Association, 1960; European Free Trade Association, 1961; Asian Development Bank, 1966; Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, 1969; Inter-American Development Bank, 1977; African Development Bank, 1982; Multilateral Investment Guarantee Agency, 1988; the Council of Europe, 1989; European Bank for Reconstruction and Development in Central and Eastern Europe, 1991; World Trade Organization, 1995; and INTELSAT, 1999. Finland entered Stage Three of EMU (the European Monetary Union) in 1999. All the Nordic countries, including Finland, joined the Schengen area in March 2001.
Relations between the United States and Finland are warm. Some 200,000 U.S. citizens visit Finland annually, and about 5,000 U.S. citizens are resident there. The United States has an educational exchange program in Finland which is comparatively large for a west European country of Finland's size. It is financed in part from a trust fund established in 1976 from Finland's final repayment of a U.S. loan made in the aftermath of World War I.
Finland is bordered on the east by Russia and, as one of the former Soviet Union's neighbors, has been of particular interest and importance to the United States both during the Cold War and in its aftermath. Before the U.S.S.R. dissolved in 1991, longstanding U.S. policy was to support Finnish neutrality while maintaining and reinforcing Finland's historic, cultural, and economic ties with the West. The United States has welcomed Finland's increased participation since 1991 in Western economic and political structures.
Following the dissolution of the Soviet Union, Finland has moved steadily toward integration into Western institutions and abandoned its formal policy of neutrality, which has been recast as a policy of military nonalliance coupled with the maintenance of a credible, independent defense. Finland's 1994 decision to buy 64 F-18 fighter planes from the United States signaled the abandonment of the country's policy of balanced arms purchases from East and West. The final aircraft rolled off the assembly line in August 2000.
In 1994, Finland joined NATO's Partnership for Peace; the country also is an observer in the North Atlantic Cooperation Council. Finland became a full member of the EU in January 1995, at the same time acquiring observer status in the Western European Union.
Finland welcomes foreign investment. Areas of particular interest for U.S. investors are specialized high-tech companies and investments that take advantage of Finland's position as a gateway to Russia and the Baltic countries.

Keep your legs silky smooth while looking good with a pair of Wrangler's new "moisturizing jeans."
The company's Denim Spa line of skinny jeans will be sold on UK-based online retailer asos.com starting Jan. 28 for $136 a pair, The Huffington Post reported.
Wrangler tapped Lizzie Jagger, the daughter of Jerry Hall and Mick Jagger, to model the jeans.
"They definitely feel cooler than regular jeans," Lizzie Jagger says in an online promotional film. "After a day wearing them, my legs feel great -- they come out feeling more silky than usual."
The lotion-laden jeans come in three "finishes" -- Aloe Vera, Olive Extract and Smooth Legs, which are also said to help reduce cellulite.
They're said to last for up to 95 wears, although wearers must purchase a spray formula after the first 15 wears to keep their legs feeling silky soft, according to Gizmodo.

a rich suburb of philly where half the population is really spoiled liberal jews, while the other half is conservative white christian money hoarders. well, no, thats not true, because there are a few blacks, but they all live in north hills where the houses are like shoeboxes. the asians, all of who are korean, are just as rich as the whites but they dont associate with anyone else except for other asians. besides the blacks, everyone lives in big mansions with ten bathrooms and three car garages where all the spoiled kids who are out of touch with reality get high/drunk every day after school and the weekends. this is why the nickname is Upper Druglin/Drugland, but really it's mostly just drinking. the parents never notice this behavior b/c they are always out of town on business or playing tennis/golf. everyone belongs to country clubs, and drives mercedes, bmws, audis, lexuses, and porsches, even the kids. the school is one of the best in the state because the teachers all make $100,000 a year. the girls are all prissy and blonde and wear abercrombie and fitch, and the guys dont really care about anything but getting head. its necessary for all the girls to have louis vuitton purses, which their parents buy for them, and its not a lie that some parents pay for their kids to get plastic surgery if they ask. every spring break everyone goes to some caribbean island, or florida, because everyones grandparents live there. and in the summer, the kids go on school trips to france, italy, australia, etc, b/c everyone has so much money. basically, its suburban hell.
I saw some prissy jap at the mall. she got out of a mercedes and had a louis vuitton purse. she must be from upper dublin.

a small suburb outside of philadelphia that's very estranged from the rest of civilized society. Most of the residents are either church attending staunch republicans with bush chaney stickers on their BMW SUV's, while the rest are Jews and Burn out druggies. There's lots of drugs...like...lots of drugs. The po9 are always out in full force, but they have no clue. You want zannies? perkaset? weed? hash? pcp? meth? coke? You got it! Come to good ole' Upper Dublin, home of the flying Cardinals. Ever wonder why it's the flying cardinals? Thats right-they're high...
Dude I need to get high, let's roll up in UD and get some shit for the weekend and then maybe we can drive around because theres nothing better to do

The promised land that God had promised the Jews from Egypt. They came here and settled and reproduced a lot and decided to be bad kids. Therefore, 50% Jew, 30% white, 15% asian, and 15% black. The jews are rich as hell and get drugs and alcohol to get drunk or high everyday or on the weekends with their parents money. They think it's so dam cool to waste their life and money on drugs and shit. Half of the kids here ultimately fail at life meaning school and think its cool and goes to Montgo. University where they will get a job at McDonalds. Upper dublin aka upper drugland is abundant with happy drunk ass jews with weed, alcohol, and sex with any drunk bitch because all the girls here are either dumb as shit and slutty or ugly and smart as balls and have no personality. And the ok ones are shy as shit. Upper Drugland is also a wigger district. All these white boys and jews think they are black as shit by listening to black rap and hanging their pants down while they got no style. They think they are so G by wearing jordans and buying drugs or cars with their clean parents money. Then they live it up by going to Nick's pizza to eat some pizza. Mean while their dumb ass parents just dont care or are too busy with their rich ass lives. wtf? Kiss my ass you fucking wiggers start acting white you dumb crackers. Also the whites just troll the jews. And since the jews have known each other from pre school and are the majority in school, they get to choose who is cool. continued..
If you need drugs and dont want to go to Philly, come to upper dublin!

II Mostly they cast out most of the asians and blacks and play in their little jew world where they dont know any asians or blacks. Therefore Asians and blacks have to make their own friends becasue they are not accepted. Asians are all smart but there are two types. Nerdy as shit or just unique and cool and funny in a whole different way that the jews does not know how to react to it. They do what the fuck they want and the nerdy ones live by the rules and suck on teacher's dicks. Blacks live in North Hills and equally get high and drunk as well. But they are dumb as shit and are all in track 4 classes and think its cool to surround the elevators in the hall ways. They also think they live in the ghettos.... They are dumb asses that live in little poor ass shoe boxes where no shooting has happened in like gazillion years. Asians and blacks are excluded from the jew group but doesnt really care because they think the jews are gay as well and mostly the koreans are the cool kids. UD are good at some sports some years but mostly suck dick at sports but we claim to be soo good at it. Indians are just not included and invisible in this school. But after high school, with their 4.4 GPA they will rise up in this world and fucking rape on all of the dumb hos, and bloop in their mouth.
If you need drugs come to Upper Dublin and get some from these high jews!

Mattresses - Mattress Sets
Featured categories +View all
Top Sellers
Should I mattress shop online?
Many consumers now shop online due to convenience and lower prices. Brick and mortar stores must compensate for rent and salespeople, so prices are often higher.
What mattress size is best?
The answer really depends on you and the mattress' intended implementation. Let's look at sizes (manufacturers may vary slightly):
King beds (76" x 80") and California king-size beds ( 72" x 84") are the biggest and can easily accommodate two people. In addition, some moments warrant extra room for kids and pets to snuggle within the bed as well. The size of the room may play a factor, so it is best to think about space availability before purchasing a king-sized mattress.
Queen-size beds (60" x 80") are optimal for guest rooms, couples who enjoy sleeping in a close proximity, and single sleepers who appreciate the extra room. Keep in mind that a queen-size mattress provides less room per person than that of two, individual twins.
Full-size mattresses (53" x 75") are a popular choice for guest bedrooms, small-sized single sleepers, and young to teenaged people. Full-size beds may be too small for tall men and women, so that is a factor to keep in mind.
- Twin mattresses (38" x 75") are great for younger children. Further, many opt to purchase two twin-size beds to emulate the size of a king. Depending on availability of price, sometimes it can be more economical to purchase two twins rather than one king-size bed.
What are the parts of a bed purchase?
There are three parts to consider regarding a mattress purchase: padding or upholstery, inner springs, and a box spring or foundation. People often associate the word mattress with the top layer of the bed – the padding. The mattress padding can consist of three-to-eight layers of padding. The layers consist of man-made materials, natural fibers, and a variety of foams. Padding quantity does not always equal quality – that is why it is important to test certain inner-lying materials. Materials such as wool, silk, and memory foam / latex foam are commonly used in mattress padding. Established brand names and quality of certain padding varies. For instance, foam padding in a $2,000 model will vary from the foam padding in a $3,000 model.
Innerspring coils allow for even weight distribution while sleeping. A mattress' price is usually contingent on the number of coils used in its makeup; yet, like padding, quality of coils differs, so more coils do not necessarily mean a better quality of bed or rest. Coil design, function, and durability vary amongst manufacturers.
Box springs are affixed with mini coils, which help supplement weight absorption. It is believed that a quality box spring can help extend the life of a mattress set. Some mattress sets come affixed with a foundation rather than a box spring. Foundations can be framed in wood or steel, yet do not address shock absorption like box springs.
What about water beds?
It is recommended to give some thought to the purchase of a water bed. Waterbeds may not be for everyone, yet waterbeds do offer some advantages over traditional beds. Water beds can be heated; the life spans of waterbeds are a couple years longer; and waterbeds are not as susceptible to microscopic parasites that may trigger asthma, eczema, or allergies.
What are some mattress buying tips?
Do not be too economically-minded. Some things come at a high price, but are warranted; mattresses fall into this category. Remember, you will spend a third of your life sleeping – purchase a quality mattress.
You may be able to purchase a box spring of a lesser profile. Box springs may help with a mattress' longevity.
- Think about your sleeping personality. For instance, those sleeping on their sides may get better rest purchasing a bed with uniquely-designed coils rather than one with interconnected coils. In addition, for those sleeping with a partner who tosses and turns, seeking a bed with quality shock absorption may suit them best.

Current DM4 users will automatically receive a notification to update to DM5. Once installed,DM5 automatically recognizes your Suunto dive computer. Read detailed information about DM5.
Suunto DM4 software allows you to both transfer your dive computer's logbook data to your laptop for detailed analysis and upload detailed dive plans from your laptop to your dive computer. Suunto DM4 is free to download and will be updated automatically when you are online.
Before you begin a dive, you can easily plan dive profiles, gases, and back up plans on your laptop using DM4's detailed graphical planner and export them to your wristop dive computer using a compatible USB cable, ready for your next dive.
Suunto DM4 now features real gas calculation. Because factors such as compressibility and temperature at fill up are taken into account, your gas blend is more likely to correspond to the one you want than if ideal gas calculations were used. This results in less tweaking of dive plans, particularly when using trimix.
You can transfer data such as dive profiles, maximum depths, temperatures, air consumption, and nitrox data directly from your dive computer to your laptop. You can also enter dive locations, names of your friends, equipment, and other comments – just as you would do with a conventional paper log.
The simulator function helps you gain greater understanding of decompression theory and computer-assisted multilevel diving, and is also an excellent tool for dive instruction.
Suunto DM4 is now available in English, Dutch, French, Finnish, German, Japanese, Korean, and Spanish language versions.

Darrelle Revis Big Head: Now you can get your head in the game with your very own cut out of Darrelle Revis' face. Unlike giant head posters or other player head photos, NFL Big Heads are sturdy and big enough to stand out in any crowd. There's no better way to prove you're a fan than with an officially licensed NFL Fathead Big Head.
Team: Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Position: Cornerback
Born: July 14, 1985 in Aliquippa, Pennsylvania
College: Pittsburgh
Turned Pro: 2007
Awards / Notes: Revis is a 4 time Pro Bowl selection (2008-2011), 3 time All-Pro selection (2009-2011) and he was named 2009 AFC Defensive Player of the Year.
What Are Fathead Big Heads?: Fathead Big Heads are portable cutouts of players' heads or your own head (we make Custom Big Heads too). That's right, the head and nothing but the head (well the face actually). Fathead Big Heads are printed on high density foam core and die cut around the face. They are meant to be held up and displayed with the kind of passion that would lead you to buy someone's head at ten times normal size. Which is not normal, but is very Fathead. Fathead Big Heads fully embrace the saying, "Get Your Head in the Game!"
What It's Made Of: A Fathead Big Head is printed on high density 3/16 inch foam core and die cut around the player's face. They are not wall graphics or self-adhesive.
Suggested Uses: Fathead Big Heads are designed so you can take them with you. Hold up a Fathead Big Head at the big game to psych out the opposing team! Make a Custom Big Head of your child and show your support at their sporting event! Fathead Big Heads are also perfect for birthday and office parties. However you choose to use them, they are meant to stand out in a crowd.
Applying REAL.BIG. Fathead decals that require the rub on transfer application requires patience and a strict observance of the installation steps. Unlike our standard peel and stick wall decals, they are not movable or reusable so it's very important to follow the instructions and do it right the first time. Instructions are included with the product, but if you'd like a preview of how to install one, or if you need to print a copy, please click on one of the buttons below:

Statewide Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plan
A preliminary draft of the 2014 Kansas Outdoor Recreation Plan (also called the State Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plan – SCORP) has been removed from this website. It was a rough, incomplete version and was not ready for public comment. We sincerely regret any inconvenience and confusion this may have caused.
The State Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plan (SCORP) serves as a vision for outdoor recreation in Kansas. It is designed to meet the requirements of the Land and Water Conservation Fund Act of 1965 (LWCF) which requires states to have an approved State Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plan on file with the National Park Service.
The over-arching purpose of the LWCF, as established by Congress, is to preserve, develop and assure accessibility to quality outdoor recreation resources for active participation in recreation and "to strengthen the health and vitality of the citizens of the United States".
To that end, over the last 40 plus years, the State of Kansas has received over $50 million in 50% matching LWCF dollars, benefitting approximately 700 different projects at the state and local level.
This Plan is a revision of a 2003 document. It includes assessments of the state's outdoor recreation and demographic trends, current and optimal levels of supply, and significant natural resources and establishes a list of priorities on which to focus for the next 5 years.

Cynthia M.SF Bay AreaHairDark BrownColor Treated HairRelaxed HairChemically Treated HairWanted To Love This...really I Did! :(I have Amika's oil, love how it smells and works in my hair so I thought I would give this a try. My first try ordering the shampoo and conditioner must have had gone through pressurized air or something as they arrived oozing with their seal broken. Folica's customer service was EXCELLENT and they reshipped the pair. For all the effort, unfortunately, this product just didn't work out in my hair. Back it and the conditioner goes. For some weird reason my hair felt stripped, rather than moisturized. The conditioner didn't really alleviate the dry feeling. I have naturally curly hair that has been straightened with Thermal Reconditioning, so its still a habit from my "curly"' days to detangle my hair in the shower with a wide tooth comb or pick with the conditioner still in it. There was no 'slip' or ease combing through it and that is make it or break it for me. :( this product DOES smell heavenly, at least in my opinion, so if you have normal non-processed hair this may work for you! Wish it did for me. :( still a fan of their oil!!posted Jan 3, 2013Link to this post

So far, I am loving what the shampoo and conditioner do for my hair. After shampooing, my hair is so soft and FAR less tangled than with other shampoos. And, of course, I LOVE the Amika scent.

I washed my hair with the Amika oBLiPHiCa oiL Shampoo first, then left the Amika oBLiPHiCa oiL Conditioner in while I finished showering, and if I planned on straightening my hair that day I used the Amika oBLiPHiCa oiL Serum Treatment, after towel drying my hair.
Best products I have ever used!

AndreaArizonaHairDark BrownDry HairCurly HairThick or Coarse HairSoft, Hydrated CurlsThis product is amazing along with the conditioner! Living in sunny, dry Arizona my curly hair gets REALLY dry making it frizzy. This shampoo definetly smooths, softens, and hydrates my hair. Hair is super managable, shiny and the scent is nice also! Your hair feels really clean without feeling heavy or stripped. I also use less product when styling now because it makes hair so smooth. I love this product so much I had my finace try it out, and even he noticed a difference from the first use! Even though he keeps his hair cut short, he has kinky, extremely dry hair that makes his head itchy. After using it, he hasn't scratched his head since. That's how much this shampoo and conditioner hydrates! I, or better yet, we have been using it for about a month and we're both very happy with this product.posted Aug 19, 2012Link to this post

Nats' hitters hope for breakout against Bucs
After five runs in three games, Nationals aim to back Haren vs. Morton
The Nationals hoped the All-Star break would give them some life in the second half of a season that began with high expectations.
But their offense struggled all weekend against the Dodgers, and Washington will start a four-game set at home on Monday against Pittsburgh, which leads baseball in team ERA and batting average against.
The Nationals scored just five runs against the Dodgers in their first series out of the break -- despite collecting 23 hits -- and dropped all three games.
"I'm sure everyone's sick of hearing it, but it's got to turn around at some point," shortstop Ian Desmond said. "And if it doesn't, then we're going to keep on trying until we run out of time."
Dan Haren will take the mound for the Nats against the Pirates' Charlie Morton. Haren posted a 9.82 ERA and a .354 opponents batting average over four starts in June, then went on the disabled list with right shoulder inflammation. Since returning, he's allowed just two earned runs over 11 innings in two starts.
Morton has a 3.19 ERA and a 1.26 WHIP in six starts this season. He underwent Tommy John surgery last June and made his 2013 debut on June 13.
His last time out, Morton, a sinkerball pitcher, allowed two runs on six hits in a 3-2, extra-inning win over the Mets on July 12.
"A very efficient outing by Charlie," Pirates manager Clint Hurdle said after the win. "A lot of balls on the ground. It's good to see him continue to get a little bit better every time he has the ball. I liked Morton's outing, then the way were able to finish up after that."
Nationals: Home run drought ends
The Nationals offense has struggled as of late, and its lack of power is at least partially to blame. The club hadn't homered in six straight games entering Sunday. With another homerless game, it would have matched the franchise's longest streak since 2004, when the team was the Montreal Expos.
But Jayson Werth delivered a pair of solo homers Sunday off Clayton Kershaw. The Nats still fell, 9-2.
Before Sunday, the Nats last hit a dinger on July 10, when Werth, Ryan Zimmerman, Anthony Rendon and Wilson Ramos all delivered solo home runs in a 5-1 win over the Phillies.
Pirates: Runners in scoring position streak ends
Entering Sunday, the Pirates had the worst batting average with runners in scoring position of any National League club. The final game of a three-game set against the Reds brought much of the same through six innings, but in the seventh, an 0-for-29 streak with runners in scoring position finally came to an end. That streak dated back to last Sunday.
The Bucs got RBI singles from Jordy Mercer and Jose Tabata in the seventh inning to help them to a 3-2 win over the Reds.
Still, Pittsburgh went just 2-for-11 with runners in scoring position Sunday afternoon.
Worth noting
• The Pirates have not hit a sacrifice fly since June 14, and their last one to the outfield came on May 27.
• The Nationals are 10 games behind the Pirates in the NL standings. Pittsburgh currently holds the No. 1 Wild Card spot, with Cincinnati trailing by three games.
• Current Pirates are hitting .224 with a .578 OPS lifetime against Haren.
• The Nationals and Pirates are 8-8 against each other since the start of the 2011 season, when Davey Johnson and Hurdle began managing their respective clubs.

AMHERST -- Runners who were unable to complete the Boston Marathon are being invited to cross a symbolic finish line at the University of Massachusetts' spring football game.
Coach Charley Molnar, an avid runner, says he wants those who trained for the event to be able to celebrate their achievement. The race was stopped after the bombings near the finish line that killed three people and injured more than 170.
The school is having the runners take a lap around the field at halftime on Saturday, wearing their marathon bibs, and cross a finish line that will set up at the 50-yard line. Each will receive a gift from the school.
Runners can register by email. The school will also put their names on the video board.
Runners wishing to register are asked to send an email to the football program's administrative assistant Joanne Chauvin at jchauvin(at)admin.umass.edu

You are here
Students study Philosophy by engaging in the pursuit of truth and understanding through rational reflection upon all facets of human experience and concern, including knowledge, reasoning, reality, faith, and the significance of fundamental moral, social, and aesthetic values. Our majors are prepared to practically and realistically face the challenges of the 21st century through development of critical and analytical problem-solving skills, as these are exercised within the areas of their various philosophical interests. In addition, Philosophy majors develop skills in written and oral communication while engaging in the interpretation of historically significant philosophical problems and perspectives. Our majors are provided ample opportunities to practice these skills and exercise their knowledge through their coursework, as well as through participation in our philosophy club and in the wider philosophical community through direct involvement in our annual ethics conference and regular department-sponsored colloquia.
Philosophy majors are also prepared and encouraged to develop personal philosophical perspectives, which, along with the requisite communication and thinking skills, will prepare them for professional careers and the challenges of life in general. For instance, our unique pre-law track develops the specialized skills and knowledge that prepare our graduates for success in law school. Lastly, integral to the development of our majors throughout their careers with us is their awareness of the importance of service, compassion, respect, and social responsibility generally, as personified in the Department's active commitment to the College's Catholic-Franciscan mission.

Admission to law school requires the student to achieve a well-balanced background in the liberal arts, strong proficiencies in writing, speaking, and reasoning, and a high grade-point average (at about 3.75 or better).

What can I do with a degree in Philosophy?
You might wonder what you can do with a degree in Philosophy. Contrary to the usual stereotype, there's almost nothing you can't do with one. Philosophy supplies analytical, writing, and thinking skills that are desirable in almost any profession. In the most obvious way, a degree in Philosophy prepares you for graduate school in Philosophy itself. And Philosophy is the preferred degree for pre-law students. But a philosophy major helps prepare you for careers in much else besides, including business, journalism, education, and politics, and as a minor or double major supplements what you might learn in other disciplines.
