Fred Brasted.
Known for his high literary and professional attainments, Mr. Brasted is one of the representative members of the Oklahoma bar, of which he has been a popular member since the late territorial days, and he is engaged in active general practice in Oklahoma City, with offices at 512-13 Colcord Building. He has furthered the educational work of his profession through contributions to its standard and periodical literature and is also the author of a number of works of fiction, some with historic basis, all of which attest his exceptional literary ability. The genealogy of Mr. Brasted is one of specially interesting order, in both the agnatic and distaff lines. The original American progenitor of the Brasted finally came from Holland in 1640 and settled on Staten Island, New York, the original orthography of the name having been Van Breestede, and the present spelling of the patronymic having been adopted by the third generation of the American branch of the family, which is of the staunch old Knickerbocker stock of the Empire State. John More, the maternal great-grandfather of Mr. Brasted, came from Scotland to America in 1772 and made settlement in Delaware County, New York. He was the maternal grandfather of the late Jay Gould, the railroad magnate. John More was a man of scholastic attainments and of strong individuality. He was educated in the University of Edinburgh, and that he held the rigid Scotch rectitude and determination, as well as being an ardent patriot in the land of his adoption, was significantly shown by his attitude at the climacteric period of the war of the Revolution. He prepared and issued a localized declaration of independence, to which he secured many signatures, and the general animus of which was shown by the last clause of the document, which prescribed that whosoever refused to sign the declaration should be banished from the State of New York.
The descendants of John More have a well-ordered family organization, and the same has been pronounced by the New York World to be the most complete and effective association of the kind in the United States. Chapters of the organization are maintained in New York City, Chicago and Denver, where annual meetings are held. Every five years a general assembly of the members of the association is held at the old homestead of John More, in Delaware County, New York, where has been erected a fine monument and a memorial church, the latter having been the bequest of Helen Gould prior to her marriage. In the interests of the association is published a periodical known as the More Family Journal, and its circulation is limited to the members of the organization.
While thus considering the family history of him whose name initiates this review, it may consistently be stated that his brother, Rev. Albert J. Brasted, is first lieutenant and chaplain in the coast artillery service of the United States army and is stationed at Fort Screben, Georgia. A sister, who became the wife of William F. Gray, passed several years in China and at Ragoon, Burmah, where she devoted close attention to the study of the languages and customs of these oriental lands. She finally returned to the United States and here her death occurred in 1907. Both in a direct and collateral way the Brasted family has been specially well known for literary ability and for exceptional academic attainments.
Fred Brasted was born at Findley Lake, Chautauqua County, New York, and is a son of Nathan Russell Brasted and Adaline (More) Brasted, the former of whom passed to the life eternal in 1910 and the latter of whom still maintains her home in the State of Iowa, she having celebrated her seventy-third birthday anniversary in 1914. Nathan R. Brasted was reared and educated in the old Empire State and when the Civil war was precipitated upon the nation he promptly manifested his loyalty to the Union by enlisting in the One Hundred and Twelfth New York Volunteer Infantry, with which gallant command he participated in many engagements marking the progress of the great internecine conflict and in which he held the non-commissioned office of orderly sergeant. In later years he perpetuated his interest in his old comrades/ in arms by his active affiliation with the Grand Army of the Republic. Mr. Brasted was for many years active and influential in the councils of the republican party and for a quarter of a century he was one of its prominent representatives in the State of Iowa, where he established the family home in 1884 and where he continued to reside until his death.
After duly profiting by the advantages afforded in the public schools of the Hawkeye State, where he was reared to adult age, Fred Brasted entered the University of Iowa, in which he was graduated as a member of the class of 1893 and from which he received the degree of Bachelor of Science. Thereafter he was a student in the law department of Drake University, in the City of Des Moines, Iowa, and in the capital city of the state he finally became court reporter for the Sixteenth judicial district, a position which he retained until 1898, when he became private secretary to Hon. Leslie M. Shaw, governor of Iowa, a post which he held during the years 1898-9. In 1899 he was admitted to the Iowa bar and in that state he was engaged in the practice of his profession until 1903, when he came to Oklahoma Territory and established his residence in Oklahoma City, where he has since continued in active practice and where he has built up a substantial and representative law business, the character and scope of which vouches alike for his technical ability and his personal popularity.
In politics Mr. Brasted accords unwavering allegiance to the republican party and he is an effective exponent of its principles and policies. He holds membership in the American Political Science Association, is affiliated with the Society of the Sons of the American Revolution, is a member of the Union League Club in the City of Chicago, and is actively identified with the American Bar Association, the Oklahoma State Bar Association, and the Oklahoma City Bar Association. In his home city he is affiliated with the Masonic fraternity and holds membership in the Men's Dinner Club. Mr. Brasted has made valuable contributions to leading law periodicals and other professional publications, and, aside from his published works of individual order, he has given interesting sketches and other literary contributions to various magazines. He is the author of "The Gang," published in 1910, and in 1914 were published his two works entitled, "Boss Bradgate" and "Mattie." Both he and his wife are earnest and zealous members of the Baptist Church, and he served as second vice president of the Northern Baptist Convention, 1908-11, and as first vice president of the same in 1912-13.
The maiden name of Mr. Brasted's wife was Estella M. Gleason, and she was born and reared in Iowa, being a daughter of John and Helen (Myrick) Gleason, of Ida Grove, that state. They have three children: Nathan R. II, named in honor of his paternal grandfather, and Helene Estella and Fred, Jr.

Answer :
The number that the Sompnour confided to the Wife of Bath was twenty-nine, and she was told to begin her count at the Doctor of Physic, who is in the illustration standing the second on her right.
The first count of twenty-nine falls on the Shipman, who steps out of the ring.
The second count falls on the Doctor, who next steps out.
The remaining three counts fall respectively on the Cook, the Sompnour, and the Miller.
The ladies would, therefore, have been left in possession had it not been for the unfortunate error of the good Wife. Any multiple of 2,520 added to 29 would also have served the same purpose, beginning the count at the Doctor.

Submit a Question to the Paula's Choice Research Team
Question About Paula's Choice Products? Click Here
Category: Sun Care
Dear Research Team, I have white spots on my cheeks caused by sun damage. I have heard that lasers are the only option for this, that skincare products aren't that helpful. I'm wondering if it would be worth trying the Vitamin C spot treatment or the C15 booster, and the Hyaluronic Acid Booster on these areas. —Nancy, via social media Dear Nancy, Unfortunately, when it comes to white spots from sun damage, the news isn't encouraging. Simply put, it isn't possible to get the pigment back. Skincare products such as exfoliants and vitamin C treatments won't help, and skin-lightening products just don't make sense, so the treatment options are limited to making the spots less noticeable by preventing them from expanding.
Of course, daily use of sunscreen will provide benefits, helping to prevent white spots just like it helps to prevent brown spots, so don't forget this critical step—even on cloudy days! Also, you need to avoid getting any amount of tan, because that will increase the contrast between the white areas and your skin color (not getting any amount of tan also reduces the growth of brown spots). As you may have noticed, the white spots do not tan; they can't turn color because there's no pigment in that area to darken.
You can try to make the white spots blend into the surrounding skin by routinely applying a self-tanning product, but you need to apply it only to the white spot, which requires a delicate touch. Using a Q-tip® or makeup brush, apply a tiny amount of self-tanner directly to the white spots; then wait a few hours, or even a day, and see how the color looks. If you need to apply more, go ahead. To maintain the color, reapply the self-tanner as it fades over time.
There are two other options. One is to see a dermatologist for light-emitting treatments (such as Fraxel®) that target the brown areas surrounding the white spots. Lightening the brown areas reduces the contrast, making the white spots less apparent.
Another option is topical application of a drug known as tacrolimus (brand name Protopic®). It is believed that this drug, which normally is prescribed to treat eczema, can help re-pigment the white spots, although the research studies have not shown overwhelmingly positive results. At present the research indicates that, at best, you'll see an 11% improvement in the spots, which is barely noticeable; however, it may be worth a go for those who are not satisfied with their results from light-emitting treatments. top
Dear Research Team, I've seen a lot of research saying that carrot seed oil is a natural high SPF ingredient. Is this true, and if so, then what is the SPF of pure carrot seed oil? —Becky, via Facebook Dear Becky, We haven't come across any research indicating that carrot seed oil provides any amount of sun protection. We know it's tempting to think there's a 100% natural sunscreen ingredient out there, but time and time again that's been disproven. Yes, many plant ingredients provide natural sun protection for the plant via their antioxidant content, but the intact system that allows a plant to thrive in sunlight (the same light that damages our skin) hasn't been shown to work the same when applied to human skin. Plant-derived antioxidants can reduce some damage (mostly inflammation), but it would be a mistake to rely on any natural ingredient, oil, or extract as your sole source of broad-spectrum sun protection. Just to be sure, we double-checked the research on carrot oil as it pertains to sun protection. As expected, we came up empty-handed in every research database we consult. We also analyzed the chemical composition of carrot seed oil, and none of its components are capable of providing sun protection. Whatever research you came across is not present in any of the scientific and natural ingredient databases we use, nor have we seen carrot seed oil showing up in any sun-care products. top
Dear Paula, How often do I need to reapply SPF? I spend most of the day sitting in an office by a window, and only go out once or twice for a walk, often when it's cloudy or raining. —Jessica, via Facebook Dear Jessica, Windows block the sun's burning rays—known as UVB—but not the UVA rays. You'll want to apply a sunscreen rated at least SPF 30 and, if possible, take steps to control how much daylight is getting in. For example, if the window you sit by has blinds, adjust them to minimize direct exposure to daylight. If you're applying a broad-spectrum product rated SPF 30 or greater, and assuming you're not perspiring heavily, there is no need to reapply it throughout the day in the scenario you presented. However, you can take steps to build greater sun protection by layering products with SPF ratings. Along with your daytime moisturizer with SPF 30, you can apply a foundation with sunscreen, and then set that with a pressed powder rated SPF 25 or greater. The powder can also be used to touch up your SPF during the day, without the need to wash off the rest of your makeup and start anew. Check out our top-rated moisturizers and foundations with sunscreen. top
Dear Paula, What level of SPF is safe for use around the eye area? I just purchased a tube of eye cream by Clinique that I really like and it has an SPF of 20. I'm also using a Paula's Choice moisturizer with SPF 30 all over my face, including the eye area. I apply both during the day only and, so far, I haven't experienced any problems. Is it okay to continue with what I'm doing? —Barbara Dear Barbara, What you're doing is just fine and there's no reason not to continue. Doubling (or even tripling) up on sun protection around the eyes is a good thing, especially if the SPF-rated products you're using contain the mineral actives titanium dioxide and/or zinc oxide. Both of these are very gentle and, as such, well-suited for use in the sensitive eye area. If you want to increase your eye-area sun protection even further, finish with a foundation rated SPF 25 or greater. You can also apply a concealer with sunscreen, such as L'Oreal Visible Lift Serum Absolute Advanced Age-Reversing Concealer SPF 20 or bareMinerals SPF 20 Concealer. Finally, anytime the sun is shining, make sure you wear sunglasses outdoors. They not only will protect your eyes from UV light (unprotected exposure is a leading cause of cataracts), but also will serve as an additional measure of protection for the delicate skin around your eyes. Plus, a great pair of sunglasses can be so chic! It's win-win! top
Dear Paula, I'm 60 years old and recently switched from your Resist line to the Skin Balancing line to address my combination skin and tendency for red cheeks. Love it, love it! I now want to tackle my brown spots and discolorations from sun damage. I see you have both AHA and BHA exfoliant products, but I'm confused which would work better for my combination skin. Help! —Linda Dear Linda, Both AHA and BHA exfoliants can help improve skin tone, texture, and dark spots, although neither AHA nor BHA exfoliants are likely to significantly improve dark spots on their own. The best solution is to use an AHA or BHA exfoliant (it doesn't matter which) in combination with a skin-lightening product, or to use a skin lightener that also exfoliates. The Paula's Choice line has two options: a skin-lightening lotion with 7% AHA and a skin-lightening gel with 2% BHA. Both are good for combination skin, although you may want to go for the lotion since your Skin Balancing routine already includes a BHA exfoliant. The skin-lightening product should be applied after cleansing, toning, and exfoliating, but before applying serum and/or moisturizer. Apply your BHA exfoliant as usual, then apply the skin-lightening product with built-in exfoliant to the dark spots. Apply once or twice daily and be sure to protect your skin every day with a product rated SPF 25 or greater. Boost the effectiveness of any skin-lightening product with a few drops of my new Resist C15 Super Booster; I've been applying this to a dark spot on my temple and have been thrilled with the results! top
Dear Paula, I play a lot of golf in low light and on hazy days, so I often have to take my sunglasses off, exposing my eyelids and the skin around my eyes to the sun's rays. Is there a sunscreen that's safe to use around the eyes? —Jill Dear Jill, I, too, need to be careful about sunscreen use around my eyes. Sunscreen ingredients such as avobenzone, octinoxate, and homosalate are great for sun protection, but can cause stinging around the eyes for some people, and can result in painful irritation if the sunscreen gets into the eye, such as when you sweat. To avoid this type of irritation, make sure the SPF product you use around your eyes contains only titanium dioxide and/or zinc oxide. These mineral-based sunscreens are as gentle as it gets, provide broad-spectrum protection, and are ideal for those people whose eye areas cannot tolerate other types of sunscreen actives. I apply Paula's Choice Barely There Sheer Matte Tint SPF 30 around my eyes followed by a dusting of Healthy Finish Pressed Powder SPF 15. You can also apply a daytime moisturizer with sunscreen around your eyes, such as Clinique Super City Block or a Paula's Choice customer favorite, Resist Cellular Defense Daily Moisturizer SPF 25. Either one of these products, or a mineral-based tinted moisturizer with sunscreen, can be applied all over your face. You can also consider using a concealer with sunscreen around your eyes. This can do double-duty if you already use a concealer to camouflage undereye darkness. I like Mally Beauty Cancellation Concealer SPF 25, which is available online. top
Dear Paula, I work from home, so most days I do not leave the house. Does this mean I don't need to wear sunscreen daily? How much protection do windows offer, and how much difference does it make if direct sunlight is avoided; for instance, being a few feet from the window rather than sitting next to it while the sun shines directly in? —Christine Dear Christine, Great questions! The simple answer is that if you can see daylight, you need sunscreen. Many people think sun damage only occurs when the sun is shining or if we can "see" it filtering in through the windows. The truth is that it's the sun's UV light that causes all sorts of problems for skin—and that UV light is present all day long, even on overcast or cloudy days. Although working inside your home all day will shield your skin better than, say, if you had a job landscaping, you still need to apply broad-spectrum sunscreen rated SPF 25 or greater to all areas of exposed skin. While most modern windows block the UVB rays that cause sunburn, unless your windows are specially treated, the glass will allow UVA radiation to pass right through. UVA rays are present all day long, penetrate deeply into the skin (though you won't feel this happening), and cause skin damage that leads to wrinkles, sagging, and crepey texture. To answer your other question about how close you sit to the window, sitting right next to a window exposes skin to more UVA rays than sitting a good distance away would. And, of course, because windows block UVB rays, sitting indoors next to a window is less damaging to your skin than sitting in direct sunlight outdoors. Bottom line: For the health and appearance of your skin, get in the habit of applying sunscreen every day. Your skin, and your overall health, will reap numerous benefits down the road. top
Dear Paula, What is all the fuss about the new Heliocare products? Can a pill really help your body limit the effects of sun exposure? I am guessing not, but it's worth looking in to. —Christine, via email Dear Christine, Heliocare Natural Anti-Aging Supplement ($62) is just one of many supplements you can take to make your skin "stronger" in the presence of sunlight. Heliocare contains an extract from a tropical fern known as Polypodium leucotomos and claims to offer "UV protection from the inside out." Some research has shown that oral supplementation can slightly reduce the risk of sunburn and hyperpigmentation (dark spots) on skin exposed to UV light. That's intriguing, but the product's benefit in that regard isn't unique or really all that special because there are several antioxidant plant extracts that can help skin defend itself against damage caused by UV light. Most antioxidants—whether supplements or, preferably, consumed via healthy, fresh foods—can limit, to some extent, the amount of skin damage caused by sun exposure. Perhaps the most well-known antioxidant capable of this protection is vitamin C. Research has shown that the skin of mice exposed to UV light experienced significantly less DNA damage when their skin was coated with vitamin C as compared to the skin of mice exposed without the vitamin C. Regardless of the benefits, no one is suggesting that you stop using sunscreen and rely solely on Heliocare, a healthy diet, or other supplements to thwart sun damage. Think of these options as add-ons to smart sun habits, which include daily sunscreen use, sunglasses, seeking shade when possible, and wearing protective clothing. One more comment about Heliocare: Research has shown that this supplement can cause stomach upset and, according to Natural Medicines Comprehensive Database, "information about potential side effects is very limited due to the lack of clinical studies." If you decide to try Heliocare, proceed with caution and definitely consult your physician. top
Dear Paula, I have been very proactive when it comes to using a sunscreen every day. I always look for an SPF rating when buying new products. Right now I have a moisturizer, make-up primer, foundation, and powder that ALL include sunscreen. I use them together (layered) every day. I'm not sure if this is overkill or not. Can too much sunscreen be a bad thing? I know I don't actually need this much sun protection, but are there any downsides to using this many products with sun protection? I just want to make sure I'm not doing more harm than good. —Teresa, via email search Dear Teresa, Congratulations on being so sun-smart! Most dermatologists would suggest more sunscreen is better (they love recommending SPF 45s and up), but when it comes to sunscreen it depends on how your skin is doing. When using multiple sunscreens you are definitely getting more protection, but the SPF numbers aren't something you can add up—that is, two SPF 25s don't necessarily add up to an SPF 30. On the other hand, you are definitely getting more than an SPF 25 and longer protection can be a good thing, depending on how much daylight there is. If you aren't experiencing any irritation, there is nothing wrong with layering sun protection. Even if some irritation from the active ingredients is taking place without you seeing or feeling it, this potential situation outweighs going with lesser sun protection and risking DNA damage. Personally, I layer my foundation and pressed powder that are rated SPF 20 and SPF 15, respectively. There is no research showing that too much sunscreen is a bad thing. I'd also suggest keeping your powder with sunscreen because this is a great carry-along way to touch up your sun protection as the day progresses. top
Category: Sun Care Dear Paula, I am thrilled that your products are available in Europe now-thank you! I have purchased the Essential Non-Greasy Sunscreen SPF 15. I noticed that, per European Union regulations, there is a warning for the oxybenzone active sunscreen in this product. I read a little about this ingredient on the Internet and I must say I am a bit worried now. Is it safe? Does oxybenzone interfere with your hormones? —Diana, via email search Dear Diana, I am pleased to hear that you are as excited as we are about the launch of Paula's Choice in the European Union. In terms of your concern about oxybenzone, there is nothing for you to be worried about, as far as the research goes, for many reasons. From what I can tell, there has been some alarmist and false information floating around on the Internet about many sunscreen ingredients. However, most of these risk-related comments are either not supported by published research or the only research performed was in animal or in vitro studies. As for real use on humans, the research is quite reassuring. The most current research I've seen about oxybenzone (as well as other sunscreen ingredients) comes from the Therapeutics Research Unit at the University of Queensland Princess Alexandra Hospital in Brisbane, Australia, and was published in Skin Pharmacology and Physiology (July-August 2005, pages 170-174). This extensive study noted that "The penetration and retention of five commonly used sunscreen agents (avobenzone, octinoxate, octocrylene, oxybenzone and padimate O) in human skin was too low to cause any significant toxicity to the underlying human keratinocytes [skin]." And the researchers surmised that penetration beyond the skin cells was undetectable. It seems that all sunscreen ingredients (both organic and inorganic), when subject to vitro research (controlled laboratory conditions in petri dishes), show a potential for some problems; however, these problems do not seem to arise in actual usage. Research is ongoing and I am following it closely. For now, the benefits of using sunscreen far outweigh any potential risk from sunscreen ingredients. top
Category: Sun Care Dear Paula, If I hadn't read your book The Beauty Bible, I would undoubtedly be battling melanoma right now. And if your book hadn't been so lucid, well-written, and researched, I probably would have abandoned it by page 20. I was an editor at Ladies' Home Journal and Connoisseur magazines for many years, as well as a writer for The New Yorker, The Times, etc. As a result, I'm quick to hurl poorly written books across the room for my dogs to chew on, unless I have to write a book review on them, in which case I grind my teeth and suffer through them. Because of your admirable bravery (you're not afraid to take on the giants) and especially the passion you convey with so much information, I was energized, got my act together, and went to a new dermatologist (the two I saw previously over the last 15 years barely looked at me). She closely examined my face, patiently listened to my questions and comments (prompted by your book), and calmly told me I had a precancerous condition on my face and neck. She also did a full body check (an examination which neither I nor my physician had ever done), biopsied a suspicious freckle without freaking me out, and slapped big tubes of sunscreen and antioxidant-loaded moisturizers in my hand. I later learned that the biopsy was positive for a melanocyte nevus, that I should do frequent self-exams, and come in for checkups every three to six months. I felt I'd dodged a bullet, and I can't thank you enough.
Category: Sun Care Dear Paula, I have been a fan of your newsletter and products for several years now. However, I have a question concerning sunscreen products with an SPF of 15. Why do the amounts of active ingredients vary so much from product to product? For instance, Paula's Choice Essential Non-Greasy Sunscreen has 7.5% octinoxate, 5% octisalate, 2% oxybenzone, and 2% avobenzone for a grand total of 16.5% active sunscreen ingredients. On the other hand, Purpose Intensive Daily Moisturizer SPF 15 has 7.5% octinoxate and 3% avobenzone for a total of 10.5% active sunscreen ingredients. And Cetaphil Daily Facial Moisturizer SPF 15 has 10% octocrylene and 3% avobenzone for a total of 13% actives. I realize that the FDA monitors all SPF products but I can't help wonder if one product will provide better SPF 15 protection than another due to a the higher percentage of active ingredients. Also, if a person has sensitive, acne-prone skin (which I do), would it make sense to use the product with the lowest percentage of active ingredients as long as it is an SPF 15? —Karen, via email Dear Karen, You sound like the consummate researcher. In the past, I had the exact same question, and the answer is an interesting one. Your initial reaction that more sunscreen ingredients provide more protection is generally correct. Overall, the goal with any sunscreen formulation is to get it through the rigorous testing mandated by the FDA, and still have it maintain the SPF number you want to place on your label. Companies have different goals in this regard. Some use the least amount of active ingredients they can to achieve the SPF on their label, while others use a larger amount to go over and beyond the SPF on their label to ensure they exceed the SPF testing. For example, some sunscreen products exceed their SPF testing. The decision to place SPF 15 on the label when it really ends up being is an SPF 16 or 17 (or higher) is intended to reduce consumer confusion when it comes to comparing sunscreen products.
The other factors in a sunscreen formulation affecting the SPF are the inactive ingredients. Products with identical percentages of active ingredients can have a range of SPFs depending on what other ingredients are used in the base! Some ingredients help keep a formulation more stable. Knowing how to use the same amount or less of sunscreen active ingredients and still obtain a high SPF number in a functional, cosmetically elegant base is the crowning talent of cosmetics chemists, revealing their skill and knowledge of cosmetic formulations.
Someone with acne-prone skin need not be concerned with choosing a sunscreen with the lowest amount of active ingredients. A percentage point here or there, up or down, is not necessarily going to affect your skin's overall reaction to the sunscreen ingredients, which may be to a specific ingredient or a specific mixture. What is important is to avoid sunscreen ingredients in any percentage that you suspect have caused breakouts in the past. As a general rule, however, choosing a sunscreen with a lower percentage of active ingredients is no guarantee that you will minimize breakouts.
Category: Sun Care Dear Paula, I have a quick question about sunblocks. I read that the American and European SPF numbers are different and that you have to halve an American SPF number to work out its European equivalent. Does this mean that your daily moisturizer has the equivalent of a sun protection factor 8 in it?
Category: Sun Care Dear Paula, I have a question about sun-care products. I used to use Peter Thomas Roth's Ultra Lite Oil Free Sunblock. I thought it was unique because it was the only one I had ever seen which contained both avobenzone and titanium dioxide. Then I noticed that the formula had been changed and it no longer contained both ingredients, just the avobenzone. I asked their customer service person about it and she told me that it is "illegal" to combine these two sunblock ingredients in one product.
Is this true, and if so, what is the reason? I frequently layer products containing these ingredients and I would like to know if there is any reason why I shouldn't.
Category: Sun Care Dear Paula, I have light olive skin (I am Hispanic). The last thing I want to do is to tan my skin. I like to have my skin as light as possible. I use Neutrogena's UVB/UVA Sunblock SPF 45 every day. I apply it religiously 20 minutes before I go out in the sun every time. But no matter what I do, my skin becomes red and then tans deeply. What can I do?! By the end of the summer my skin looks like charcoal. Please give me advice. —Oriana, via e-mail Dear Oriana, There can be many reasons why you are still getting color. The most likely cause is the fact that even the best of sunscreens still let some sun exposure through. A high SPF, like SPF 45, is not about better or deeper protection, but just longer protection-45 times longer than it would normally take you to get a slight burn. For your skin type that means you could stay in the sun for up to 18 hours without getting a burn. But the possibility of you being somewhere in the world that has that much daylight is remote.
High SPF numbers give the false impression of providing enhanced protection when that is not the case. A well-formulated sunscreen with an SPF 30 to an SPF 45 still only protects your skin from about 97 to 98 percent of the sun's rays. That means 2 to 3 percent of the sun's rays are still getting through and that can trigger melanin production (the skin's tanning response). This is especially true for those with darker skin tones or for those who have a lot of previous sun damage, as that means hypermelanin production is more likely to take place.
One more issue. While the Neutrogena product you are using is a good one (it's avobenzone-based), there are those who feel that a pure titanium dioxide or and/or zinc oxide-based sunscreen offers better coverage. They may be right and it would be worth it for you to experiment and see if that helps. Be aware, though, that while you would be getting potentially better or more "blocking" protection, these types of sunscreen can show up somewhat whitish on skin, so blend them in very well.
It is also important to make sure you are applying the sunscreen liberally, and here are some other steps to take in order to obtain optimum sun protection:
Category: Sun Care Dear Paula, I recently received a sample for an intriguing product called Chelsea Girl Wash Away The Sun SPF 15-2 in 1 Cleanser and Sunscreen. It is a body wash that is supposed to provide sunscreen protection, thereby making additional sunscreen lotion unnecessary. This would be great since it gets so hot and humid in the summer, I could just shower and go. Following is the information on the label: Defend your skin against premature aging, sun damage and the environment with this oil-free 2 in 1 cleanser and sunscreen. Patented technology allows this cleanser to attach to the protein layers of the skin forming a protective broad-spectrum SPF 15. Clinically tested and proven to be safe and effective for daily use on all skin types. Directions: Apply daily to wet skin, work into rich lather, then rinse and pat dry. —Laura, via e-mail Dear Laura, I agree that it would be great if you could apply a sunscreen by just washing it on. While I don't doubt the SPF or application claim, this product does not contain avobenzone, zinc oxide, or titanium dioxide, so it would leave your skin exposed and unprotected from a large portion of the sun's silent UVA rays. UVA rays are considered by many to be as damaging, if not more so, than the sun's UVB rays (UVB rays trigger sunburn while UVA rays are responsible for long-term sun damage to the skin). top
Category: Sun Care Dear Paula, I have recently come across a sunblock that claims to offer 100% protection from both UVA and UVB rays. While its active ingredient is zinc oxide (which I know to be an excellent broad-spectrum sun protector) and its Sun Protection Factor (SPF) is 30+, I cannot help but be suspicious about its claim to protect from absolutely 100% of the sun's rays. To add to my doubts, the company will not divulge to me the exact concentration of zinc oxide in the product, which would allow me to assess this claim; after all, it could just be a minuscule amount, and I have learned from you that a 2% or more concentration is preferable. (By the way, I politely expressed my concerns to the company about their claim and the fact that they decline to divulge an important piece of information about the product, and have only received the one-sentence reply: "As clearly stated on our Web site, [our product] provides 100% protection against UVA and UVB"--which is just a regurgitation, not an explanation, of their claim!Is their claim a bogus one or can a sunblock really offer 100% broad-spectrum protection? —Anna, via e-mail Dear Anna, I suspect their claim is completely bogus. Even a pure zinc oxide or titanium dioxide sunscreen, unless it was applied like a white blanket over the face, could not provide 100% protection. Second, the formula for the product you are referring to appears to contain about 1% to 2% zinc oxide. That isn't bad, but it's also not enough to be a blanket, so the 100% promise is at best misleading. Even the best of sunscreens with a pure titanium dioxide and zinc oxide content can still only provide about 96% to 98% protection. top
Category: Sun Care Dear Paula, I recently came across an article in an overseas magazine. It said that the worst skin-care mistake women can make is thinking that they don't need to wear a sunscreen at night. According to the article, the fluorescent lights in our apartments and UV lights in the nightclubs emit strong UV rays, while the microwave, TV, and heater produce infra-red rays. Apparently if we stay near these light or heat sources for a long time, our skin will try to protect itself by producing extra melanin, resulting in uneven skin tone and freckles. To avoid this happening, the magazine suggested wearing sunscreen 24 hours a day. What do you think, Paula? I have indeed seen some sunscreens that claim to block UVA, UVB, and infra-red rays. What damage does infra-red do to our skin, and do you recommend wearing sunscreen at night? —Cindy, via e-mail Dear Cindy, Fluorescent lights absolutely do put out about 320 to 400 nanometers of UV emission, which is about the same range of UVB and UVA emission from the sun, and in full office light that could technically be a problem for the same reason it is a problem from the sun. However, the amount of energy present is so small that it isn't a problem under office or grocery store-type lighting conditions. Even more to the point, the notion that the amount of fluorescent light being emitted in dimly lit evening spots (assuming they even use fluorescent light, versus incandescent lighting) could damage skin is just bizarre. Further, there is no research establishing infra-red rays as being a problem for skin cells. top
Category: Sun Care Dear Paula, I just purchased some sunblocks containing the three different key ingredients you repeatedly mention: titanium dioxide, zinc oxide and Parsol 1789. I have one further problem that you have never mentioned before: how do I interpret the percentages of each? One product contained 7.5% titanium dioxide, another, 8%; another contained 50 mg/g of zinc oxide, another contained 100 mg/g of zinc oxide. Furthermore, another sunblock contained only 4.5% zinc oxide but was in a waterproof base with an SPF of 45, but strangely, another contained 7.5% zinc oxide (a higher concentration) in a non-waterproof base but had a lower SPF of 30. What does that mean? How does a waterproof SPF 45 with a lower concentration of zinc oxide differ from a non-waterproof SPF 30 with a higher concentration of zinc oxide? Which one will give me more protection? How confusing! In addition, another product contained 1.25% Parsol 1789. Is this percentage sufficient? How do I go about reading and interpreting these labels? —Anna, via e-mail Dear Anna, There is no way you can interpret these labels (and nor can I or anyone else) because there are no official standards set for adequate UVA protection the way there are for UVB SPF numbers (there are exact standards for UVB protection in regard to which ingredients can be used and how much of each). Instead, the issue of UVA protection is theoretical, with no set standards. However, according to what research has turned up so far, it is assumed that a 2% or greater concentration of titanium dioxide or zinc oxide, and avobenzone (also called Parsol 1789 or butyl methoxydibenzoylmethane) will net you excellent UVA protection. There is also the notion that more means better for the titanium dioxide and zinc oxide, and while I think that can make sense (though it's absolutely not proven), the white look of the application and the heavy feel don't work for everyone.< top

Endeavor Chile company Socomal helps indigenous tribes bring goods to market
This article, reprinted from IndigenousNews, highlights the work of Socomal, a Chilean company run by Endeavor Entrepreneur Patricia Cuevas.
"Socomal, a green agricultural distribution company located in Southern Chile, outlines plan to help 27 Mapuche communities develop and expand their farms to make Mapuche agricultural products accessible to the International market."
Today, it was reported that Kiñe wun lof Mapu, an Indigenous association comprised of more than 1,500 small Mapuche agricultural producers from 27 different Mapuche communities, signed an agreement with the corporation, Socomal. The agreement included an investment of nearly US$400,000 in helping the Mapuche producers get trained and develop more than 2,400 acres of land for the production of beans and lupins. Ultimately, those goods will be sold at market prices and shipped globally — including to Europe and the Middle East.
Remigio Huenolaf, the spokesperson for Kiñe wun lof Mapu, discussed the steps necessary to reaching this agreement: "We are working in an organized manner and establishing alliances based on the principle of trust between leaders, associations and entrepreneurs." Huenolaf later added, "Maybe this agreement is a small step, but it is the beginning of a new life for families in this area."
On the other side of the agreement was Patricia Cuevas, the owner of Socomal and businesswoman from Temuco. She too, expressed her hopes for improving the quality of life in the area. "I started working with the Mapuche communities and we have helped out one another. The most important thing is that they make progress, improve their homes, lands and the quality of life for their families."
In addition to individuals from Kiñe wun lof Mapu and Socomal, the National Director of CONADI, Jorge Retamal, attended the signing of the agreement as well. He indicated that he was proud of the agreement and indicated, "We are seeing more examples like this one, where the Government, private sector and communities work hand in hand for the welfare of the Mapuche people."

I'm now total stuck with the remaining SCSI problem, and need some help. I have a really broken cdrom drive. With this cdrom I'm able produce a scsi timeout, which will cause a hang of the complete machine. I've traced the problem a little bit further, and detected, that I get interrupts on interrupt vector 0 (it's named VECTOR_GIO0 in the Irix header files). I always see 17 irq 0 then the machine hangs completly. Please, could someone tell what this interrupt means, so I can either solve it by servicing the interrupt the right way or avoid it by doing something else ? Thomas. -- This device has completely bogus header. Compaq scores again :-| It's a host bridge, but it should be called ghost bridge instead ;^) [Martin `MJ' Mares on linux-kernel] |

post #64652 of 7872211/17/13 at 6:26pmI think the trousers are fine, if you had them tailored / narrowed a bit. they look too wide on ya, but an easy and inexpensive alternative for most of your trousers instead of trashing them.
Jacket, however, looks like very low notches....looks quite dated to me, might be worth getting rid of that one in favor of something from Yoox, etc?Quote:Originally Posted by luv2breformed
Here I am today in my best Stitches pose:
More Photos (Click to show) My thoughts (Click to show)I really like how AAS has been describing his process, so here goes:
I really wanted to wear these pants, so I started with them. I have been getting rid of a lot of pants in my wardrobe, and these feel like they fit pretty well. I decided immediately that I needed a light blue shirt, as the pants are brown PLUS they have a light blue stripe in them. I settled on this light blue/pink/brown striped one (this shirt may not be in good taste at all). I figured the brown stripe would tie well to the pants. With two already questionable items to start with I decided everything else needed to be plain/normal. I picked the navy SC next. I was going to go with a knit, but I'd already worn my brown knit this week, and my navy knit felt too matchy with the SC. I figured the point/semi-spread collar would be fine with silk, so I grabbed this plain slightly textured solid. I finished it off with some of my most conservative brown shoes. I thought of wearing walnut to pick up on the lighter brown/orange stripe in the pants but figured the shirt and pants were already bold enough. My brown socks were dirty so I chose navy, and topped it off with a white linen PS.
Other thoughts:
I wish I had more spread/cutaway collar shirts
Maybe a pocket square with some pink in it would have tied to the shirt better.
I REALLY like the fit of this SC, I wonder if others feel the same.
Pants and/or shirt belong in the trash?
Better tie color choice than brown?post #64653 of 7872211/17/13 at 7:01pm- Posts: 7,332

Do you just mean tapered from the knee down, or do you have another alteration in mind? If taper, by how many inches would you say? Also, I seem to not be able to recognize dated gorge as I keep purchasing and wearing jackets that are bad. Is there a guideline to go by? I thought slightly lower than the shoulders was about right for an average look. Of course higher than that is much more popular today as clearly evidenced by more of the best fits in this thread. I have not heard of yoox, thank you for the suggestion.
If you don't mind, are the color choices ok provided I update the jacket? I appreciate all of the help.
post #64655 of 7872211/17/13 at 8:12pmI actually like the jacket but dislike the pants in that combo. The jacket doesn't have a ton of personality so I think it's best used if you are muting another thing in your getup for the day. If you have a louder tie or shirt for instance. Additionally, I'd wear that sucker without a tie if I was just kickin' it in the hood. You feel me bro?
Those pants are not doing you any favors right now. The transition from coat to pant throws the proportions off.

post #64657 of 7872211/17/13 at 8:26pmYeah, I was trying to "mute" the pants and shirt. Also, just went through a bunch of my SC and the gorge was very noticeable as I tried on several in a row. I ditched this one and one other thanks to your advice, foxx. They were like 2" below the shoulder. Thanks again, I'll keep at it.post #64658 of 7872211/17/13 at 9:01pmSorry, what gorge are we talking about? I think I missed something.

(apologies for the water splashes on the mirror!) :-)
The tie is a rather loud number by Duchamp. I know it probably won't have many fans on this forum. Sometimes I like to wear things like this though, especially around the office when the majority are wearing non-existent ties or ill fitting shirts and suits.
Is a cold day in Dublin today so I had to break out the wool overcoat.

Eric Stangel
Eric Stangel (born June 16, 1971) is an American television screenwriter and producer.
Born and raised in Chappaqua, New York, Stangel attended Syracuse University, where he graduated with a degree in broadcast journalism in 1993.[1] Upon graduation, Stangel and his brother Justin Stangel created a stage show in Manhattan, titled Big City Comedy.[1] The success of the show led to writing work for Saturday Night Live, Fox Television, and the USA Network. The comedy shorts they created to air between shows for the USA Network helped land the Stangel brothers staff writing jobs with Late Show with David Letterman, in 1997.[1]
In 1998, Stangel and his brother become the head writers of the Late Show, positions they held until 2013.[2]
During the 2007 Writers Guild of America strike Stangel, along with his brother Justin and fellow Late Show writers Bill Scheft, Steve Young, Matt Roberts, Tom Ruprecht, Jeremy Weiner, Lee Ellenberg, Joe Grossman and Bob Borden posted their "thoughts and observations" at http://lateshowwritersonstrike.com/.
As co-head writer for The Late Show, Stangel was part of a team that has won two Primetime Emmy Awards (in 2001 and 2002), received twenty-one total Emmy nominations, and was nominated for Writers Guild of America awards four times.[3]
In August 2009 Stangel was named one of the top sports Twitterers by CNBC,[4] and was subsequently named one of the Most Influential Sports Tweeters of 2009.[5]
In December 2009 Stangel and his brother Justin were promoted to executive producers for The Late Show.[6] The Stangel brothers are the longest-serving head writers in the 16-year history of the show.
Stangel was a winner of one of SI.com's 2010 Sports Media Awards, receiving a top pick in the Sports Media Tweets of The Year category.[7]
In March 2011, Stangel was named to Time.com's Twitter 140, a list of the world's most influential Tweeters.[8]

Sefolosha? Great defender.
Actually when Calderon came in after jack started the offense picked up and there were numerous times we went on runs after the starting unit left us with a deficit.
I'm also not sure why people still believe Jose is this passive passer. The only time this happened was under Sam Mitchell when he would bark out plays and Jose would have to execute. Last season under Triano and that "100 shats!" season, Jose was a much more push-the-offense kind of guy.
What I'm having trouble understanding is why Jose is a "bad fit" in the starting lineup. People keep throwing that phrase around hoping it will stick, but provide no reason as to why. If Jose isn't a starting caliber PG, then neither is Jack. So how does Jack better fit the starters? Please explain. And please don't point to off-court chemistry. I could care less that Jack plays X-box with DeRozan on the weekends. I care about what they do on the court.
From what I can see, a PG that gets you the ball at the right spot/time is great for developing the young gunz, and I think we're all in agreement that that is exactly what Jose does.
Speaking only offensively, I'd prefer Jose for set play and Jack for more energetic, fast break style of game. With the current roster in mind I'd probably pick Jack.
Career Shooting Comparison - Calderon on left and Jack on right
Statistically Calderon's career numbers rank him 2nd in passing when compared to CP3, Nash, Rondo and Jack. Jacks ranks 5th or last among the group of five.
For passing comparison among Calderon, Nash, CP3, Rondo and Jack see link below
Effective Field Goal Percentage; the formula is (FG + 0.5 * 3P) / FGA. This statistic adjusts for the fact that a 3-point field goal is worth one more point than a 2-point field goal. For example, suppose Player A goes 4 for 10 with 2 threes, while Player B goes 5 for 10 with 0 threes. Each player would have 10 points from field goals, and thus would have the same effective field goal percentage (50%).
True Shooting Percentage; the formula is PTS / (2 * (FGA + 0.44 * FTA)). True shooting percentage is a measure of shooting efficiency that takes into account field goals, 3-point field goals, and free throws.
This may be overstated a bit, but I feel like I don't exactly know what Jose Calderon would be like on an NBA team without Bosh ... yes, he seemed to be more of the slow half-court type of PG, but that's exactly the kind of team they built around their all-star CB4 ...
Sure, we've seen him play at times when Bosh would be injured, but to truly see him in an offense where the schemes weren't built around dumping it into the post for Bosh ... maybe he could perform well in a run 'n' gun game? His passing is great, his shooting is awesome ... He is very careful with the ball, so it remains to be seen how he would play in the up-tempo game - and maybe we'll never get to see it with Jose in Toronto.
Do you know what percentage of Calderon's assists came from Bosh?
For example last season according to 82games.com, link below, only 48% of Bosh's field goals were assisted which was a lot lower than Bargnani at 65% and Johnson at 67%
Do you really think Ed Davis is a good enough pf that he is going to be backing up Amir right out of the gates? Don't get me wrong, I think Ed is the exact player we need, but he's not going to be ready to handle that big of a load once the season starts. I don't even think Amir is ready for that, hence why we would start a crafty vet in their place. If Amir is ready, awesome! That would allow Kleiza to move to the sf as a reserve, and allow Dorsey/Davis to backup the pf. Kleiza did an awesome job filling in for both sf/pf positions with Denver. He played with one of the best forward team's in the league which had Martin/Nene/Andersen, in which he learned allot! But ya your probably right, Kleiza would never start based on the fact that you said so and I'm delusional.

The best bike path goes from Edgartown to the State Forest area but you have to take roads to get there from wherever your boat may be. The last time I biked it was about five years ago when I was there "boat sitting" for a friend so it may have been extended farther by now. I sailed there last year but did not get the bike off the boat. If you get to the State Forest, you could ride in there. I have not been on all the trails there but they are off the roads. Another note about Menemsha moorings is that, as in Oak Bluffs, they raft boats together. The harbor is small. There is a swift current at the inlet so getting in and out is best done off peak current if you're not familiar with it. The entire area of MV/Elizabeth Islands/Woods has places with dangerous current situations you need to be aware of. You need to be on your toes, especially with heavy boat traffic.

Cervinia, Italy
Cervinia Ski Holidays
Cervinia is one of the highest resorts in the Italian Alps. The village is towered over by the mighty Matterhorn and is surrounded by some of Europe's most amazing peaks. Cervinia's ever increasing popularity is due to its fantastic snow conditions that are complimented by long hours of sunshine and a good variety of runs. The centre of Cervinia is closed to coaches. Therefore access to some central hotels on arrival and departure day means that you will be on foot and in some cases carrying bags so check where your accommodation is before booking.
Cervinia Skiing and Snowboarding
Cervinia has an area pass that opens up to include the amazing Zermatt and some really challenging skiing and boarding. Cervinia's main slopes are high, open and sunny so perfect for learning. The Cretaz lifts serve the nursery slopes leading down to the resort centre where you will make fast progress up to the higher longer runs from Plateau Rosa. Intermediates will just love the area as there are plenty of long sweeping runs with a few moguls to test your legs on. Choose a good sunny day and ski over to Zermatt. Advanced skiers will definitely want to try the long black run down to Plan Torette as there are plenty of challenges here. On the Swiss side in Zermatt there are some amazing opportunities to test your skills with some fantastically steep terrain on offer. The 'Indian' terrain park is one of the best in Italy. There are also expert jumps, boxes and rails including a 10m tube.
Cervinia Apres Ski
There are a few good bars such as Copa Pan or the Dragon Bar. Some have live music and there are also a few disco's that get busier at the weekends. Off the slopes there is a fitness centre, bowling and a natural ice rink.

Eric Pickles, the Local Government Secretary, promised to "give local communities a greater say" on where wind farms are built, but new guidance from his department warns councils not to create "inflexible" turbine-free zones.
The planning document, released after Parliament broke up for the summer, says the distance of a wind farm from housing does not "necessarily determine whether the impact of a proposal is unacceptable".
"Local planning authorities should not rule out otherwise acceptable renewable energy developments through inflexible rules on buffer zones," it says.
At least eight councils are trying to restrict large turbines being built up to 1.2 miles from housing.
The guidance appears at odds with comments made in January by Nick Boles, the planning minister, when he told his local newspaper: "It is perfectly reasonable and right for . . . district councils to draw up policies that will guide future decisions about the siting of wind turbines so that we protect our precious landscape and listen to local people's concerns.
"Such policies might include minimum separation distances between centres of population and new turbines."
Last month, leading Conservatives promised that the guidance would effectively end the spread of turbines, which have been blamed for blighting landscapes. A senior Tory said at the time: "The Prime Minister strongly feels that this is a real local issue and if people don't want to have wind farms they don't have to have them."
The guidance makes it clear that the need for green energy "does not automatically override" environmental protections and local concerns. It also orders officials to take into account topography, the effect on "views" and historic sites and assess the "cumulative impact of wind turbines" amid fears that some areas are being overwhelmed by applications.
However, Whitehall sources said the guidelines were fairly similar to previous ones and would not amount to a community veto on wind farms.
Andrew Geary, the Conservative leader of Milton Keynes council, said the council would have to reconsider its efforts to ban wind turbines taller than 125 metres near residential areas.
He said the environmental considerations sounded "encouraging" but the decision to stop councils specifying a minimum distance between turbines and homes was "more than a little disappointing".
Martin Hill, the Conservative leader of Lincolnshire council, also welcomed the "positive aspects" to the guidance, but said the ruling against "separation distances" was "regrettable". He said: "It's very reasonable to say 130-metre high industrial structures should not be within a certain distance of houses."
Tory MPs also expressed their frustration at the ruling against buffer zones.
Peter Luff, MP for Mid Worcestershire, who last year tried to bring in laws stopping wind farms being built less than 2km from housing, said each area should be free to set minimum distances between dwellings and turbines. He said councils were best placed to know where wind farms would have a "devastating impact on a community".
Glyn Davies, MP for Montgomeryshire, also said any ruling against "buffer zones" was a "backward step". He said: "The Government should not make it more difficult for people trying to stop wind turbines destroying their lives."
The renewable energy industry welcomed the guidance. Maf Smith, deputy chief executive of RenewableUK, said the Government agreed with the industry view that each site "needs to be looked at on its own merits, not through blanket arbitrary criteria".
A spokesman for the Department of Energy and Climate Change last night suggested the guidance would make little difference. "Onshore wind planning applications will only be accepted where the impacts are, or can be made, acceptable. This guidance will help to ensure that proper weight is given to factors such as heritage sites and visual impact."
The Department for Communities and Local Government said the guidance "represents a significant increase in protection for England's heritage and landscape, ensuring that the local environment and local amenity is given the protection it deserves."

You may think of food storage as buckets of wheat and beans that are useless in your everyday cooking.
Not so, my friends. Here are 15 food storage hacks to make your cooking easier and more awesome on a daily basis:
1. Dehydrated onion flakes = no chopping onions = no tears. Win.
2. Freeze-dried fruit crushed into powder in a blender makes an awesome addition to frosting and filling for cakes, cookies, and other treats.
3. Powdered milk is fantastic for baking and everyday use (especially when you unexpectedly run out and your kids are about to stage a mutiny).
4. Powdered milk is also great for those who use milk infrequently. No sense in letting half of the container go bad—just mix up the amount you want on an as-needed basis. Also, powdered milk has come a long way since your childhood days of "scorched-tasting" milk. Don't be afraid.
5. Use the powder or leftover pieces of your favorite freeze-dried fruits or spices to create delicious compound butters to spread on bread and other treats.
6. Instead of chopping up garlic, Minced Garlic is a super convenient product to store. It will cut your prep time in half, and you can use it in your favorite meals. (And, bonus, your hands won't smell like garlic.)
7. Freeze-dried veggies are an easy way to have seasonal vegetables at any time of year. Add them to soups and casseroles without having to chop, slice, or dice.
8. Add Peanut Butter Powder to smoothies. You'll get all the flavor with much less fat.
9. Use Butter Powder to make spreadable butter in a hurry.
10. If you get home late or forgot to plan dinner, you can use Taco Mix (TVP) to make tacos in a flash!
11. Freeze-dried fruit is perfect in smoothies. You can also use Freeze-dried fruits to make apple-peach or strawberry-banana bread.
12. Looking for a great after school snack for the kids? FD fruits are healthy and taste so good, the kids won't miss candy (well . . . )
13. Use Freeze-dried meats as toppings for homemade pizza.
14. Got a "Helper" meal or pre-packaged meal that requires meat? You can use freeze-dried meats as substitutes in your favorite pre-packaged dishes.
15. Wheat berries don't just have to be used for flour. You can use wheat berries as a meat extender or a substitute for meat in meals. Check out our post, "All about Wheat" to find out how.
How do you use food storage to make cooking easier?
