4. STELLA & DOT JEWELRY AND ACCESSORIES – this is my Mother's Day present to myself. I bought a 30″ dainty ball chain with the initials of my two grandchildren. It's not a statement piece (Stella & Dot carries some beauties) but it's a piece that shows my love. I've linked to my wonderful representative, Darcy Sieber, in case you don't have one. After ordering this I had it in 4 days!!

Fragrance is an excellent Valentine's Day gift. Jewelry is an excellent Valentine's Day gift. So Lisa Hoffman's fragrance jewelry, her ingenious combination of the two, is the perfect gift. Lisa Hoffman sent the Kerala Ashok Garden Bracelet ($75) and it is really, truly stunning. Not only is it seriously practical (your jewelry and fragrance all in one!), it is gorgeous.
Lisa's fragrance jewelry was inspired by the Victorian Era, when showing your diamonds and jewelry was considered to be in bad taste. Jewelers made 'fronts' that covered the jewels for elegant woman as they traveled to parties and concerts. Lisa's earrings, pendants, and bracelets have a charm similar to those 'fronts' that encases small fragranced wooden beads. The wooden beads slowly release the scent as they are exposed to air for a subtle delivery of fragrance.
The wooden beads retain their scent for a long time and have a great 'throw'. For her Kerala Ashok Garden Bracelet, Lisa redesigned the fragrance charm to hold even more beads for more fragrance power. The bracelet and beads arrive nicely packaged in a pretty mesh bag. You can also buy refill jars of the fragrance beads for $20 so you never run out of fragrance and can put different scents into the jewelry if you'd like.
The Kerala Ashok Garden Bracelet is a striking bracelet that celebrates both the strength and the softness of femininity. The fragrance is a beautiful floral combination of Ashok blossom, Deep Violet, Ripe Pear, Velvety Apricot, and Sheer Jasmine. The silver fragrance charm perfectly complements the lovely vintage purple glass beads. The fragrance charm opens up, and you put a few of the wood beads inside then snap closed. As you move your arm, the fragrance wafts about you in a beautifully subtle way.
The bracelet is so pretty, Lisa says it "acts as a constant reminder to inhale bliss and exhale peace." What a beautiful message for a day that celebrates love!
While all of her jewelry is amazing, I think the Kerala Ashok Garden Bracelet is simply perfect for Valentine's Day. Head on over to the Lisa Hoffman Beauty website and check it out – which one do you think is the perfect V Day gift? – Lisa

Whether you are looking to spend a good amount of money or looking for something affordable, you can please a jewelry lover and a fragrance lover with one gift: Lisa Hoffman Fragrance Jewelry.
If money isn't an issue, check out the beautiful fragrance cuffs and fragrance necklaces created by Tom Binns and Lisa Hoffman. These run $250 for the necklace pendant and $300 for the fragrance cuffs, and they are gorgeous.
The little compartments are full of fragrance beads that retain their scent for a long time and have a great 'throw'. Put on your necklace or cuff and you have your jewelry and your perfume taken care of in one swoop.
The different fragrances available include French Clary Sage (clean watery linen), Japanese Agarwood (unique woody zest),Madagascar Orchid (exotic modern floral), Tuscan Fig (sophisticated and sweet), andTunisian Neroli (sensuous classic floral).
Lisa Hoffman also has some less expensive options that are fantastic – she has fragrance earrings (on sale right now for only $39!!), fragrances necklaces ($65), and fragrance bracelets ($65). I have the fragrance earrings (I reviewed them HERE) and wear them all the time. And for this holiday, I absolutely love the bracelets.
They come in different shades and metals based on the fragrance choice. My favorite fragrance is Tuscan Fig, which is a beautiful combination of fig, vanilla, honeysuckle and coconut.
The Tuscan Fig bracelet is described as "amber-hued resin beads intermingled with rose gold-plated brass and howlite stone beads and a rose gold-plated brass charm to evoke the rich, gourmand scent of Tuscan Fig."
The bracelet comes in a pretty mesh bag with a jar of fragrance beads. The beads are scented, and you put them into the little charm compartment on the bracelet.
You can also buy refill jars of the fragrance beads for $20, so you never run out of fragrance and can put different scents into the jewelry.
The bracelets are so beautiful, I think they are a 'one for you, one for me!' item. Definitely take the time to check out the great options at Lisa Hoffman Beauty. – Lisa

Imagine the most relaxing, peaceful place you can. If you could be anywhere in the world right now, what place would make you the happiest?
Here is what I picture:
Every time I freak out and need to go to a 'happy place' to calm myself, I see myself at the beach. I also picture myself about thirty pounds lighter and accompanied by Joe Manganiello, but that's a whole other story.
So…I tend to like beachy, coconutty scents. However, many fragrances in that category smell synthetic, or too foody, or too much like sun tan lotion. Enter Lisa Hoffman, who has created the absolute perfect summer scent – Tuscan Fig, which is now available in a 2 oz. size Eau de Parfum ($65).
I reviewed Lisa Hoffman products before here and here. This is a super high quality line with tremendous products. I love the iScentify feature on her website that guides you through questions to find the perfect scent for you – which is how I found Tuscan Fig.
Tuscan Fig has notes of Vanilla Bean, Honeysuckle, Coconut Wood, and Gardenia. It's a beautifully sophisticated beachy scent. It's not a candy coconut, or an overwhelming floral. It smells warm and complex, and it makes people hug you even closer and take a big, huge inhale.
Tuscan Fig instantly transports you to dusk at a gorgeous sandy beach, the warmth intensifying the coconut and vanilla as the notes of sun baked honeysuckle and gardenia dance in the background.
And every time I wear it, my husband wants to fool around.
Like I said, it's the perfect summer scent. You really have to try this. – Lisa

In this year's search for creative and unique Mother's Day gifts, I came across the perfect marriage of two of my favorite things – fragrance and jewelry. "Imagine a perfume as visually beautiful as a sparkling cocktail ring or a rare silk scarf – and that can be taken on and off just as easily." Lisa Hoffman did just that when she was gifted a pair of Victorian-Era earrings by her husband, actor Dustin Hoffman. Lisa set out to create her vision, and a perfect Mother's Day gift was born!
Back in the Victorian Era, it was considered gauche to show off your diamonds. So jewelers created a 'front' to cover the jewels as the ladies traveled to and from events. Lisa created beautiful earrings, pendants, and bracelets with a charm similar to those 'fronts' that encases small wooden beads that are full of fragrance.
The wooden beads slowly release the scent as they are exposed to air, so it's a subtle delivery, not a huge cloud of perfume. I was lucky enough to try a pair of the earrings ($65) in the Tunisian Neroli scent.
Tunisian Neroli is a gorgeous, warm, intoxicating scent. It's a combination of neroli flower, ylang ylang, and golden amber. There are five scents in all to chose from – French Clary Sage (clean watery linen), Japanese Agarwood (unique woody zest), Madagascar Orchid (exotic modern floral), Tuscan Fig (sophisticated and sweet), and Tunisian Neroli (sensuous classic floral). I love how the fragrance profiles are all very distinct, there is definitely something for every person's scent preference. If you aren't sure which fragrance is best, check out the iScentify – it's a lot of fun and will tell you exactly which scents will work for you.
The earring charms open up, and you put a few of the wood beads inside then snap closed. As you move your head, the fragrance softly wafts about you in a beautifully subtle way.
What a unique and perfect combination – your fragrance and jewelry in one!! And when the fragrance is gone, you can get replacement beads for $20. The Tunisian Neroli earrings are gold, but other scents come in silver, bronze, or rose gold.
They are so pretty on – somehow they manage to be both vintage and modern looking at the same time. I love the Tunisian Neroli and I am dying to try the Tuscan Fig bracelet and necklace. I think I am going to put this on my Mother's Day list – as a gift for me!! This is really one of the most unusual and genius products I have ever seen. I cannot recommend it highly enough – get some for your mom, and get some for you! – Lisa

Favorite skin care:
I found several skin care items that I am constantly reaching for over and over. I love the Chella Foaming Cleanser Lavish Souffle, it the perfect cleanser and you only need a tiny bit.
I really got into natural organic lines, like Annmarie Gianni Skin Care Neroli Toning Mist and Coconut Oil, beautiful products from a fantastic line with a great message.
I also loved the Artisan Naturals Lemon Cypress Exfoliating Mask, which is my favorite go-to for pesky breakouts.
To even out my skin tone, I have been absolutely loving the Omorfies Etenia Lightening Cream by Kleraderm.
Two other skin care lines that I adore are 3Lab (for their amazing Super Eye Treatment and Perfect Lips)
and YBF Skin Care (Hydrate B and Boost are flipping fabulous).
Favorite primer:
This one is a tie for me. I am completely impressed with Reviva Labs Makeup Primer,
it's a great silicone based primer that actually goes on light.
And I am totally loving the Youngblood Mineral Primer,
which has a wonderful texture and really helps my makeup stay put all day.
Favorite Facialist:
My favorite facialist this year was Joanne Kallabat, owner of Kleraderm.
It's such a treat to go to Nordstrom and get a $150 facial for only $20 – plus she gives the BEST face massage ever. I love how she gives tons and tons of samples first. She wants to figure out what works best for your skin before she will even let you buy anything!
Favorite Fragrances:
I have completely embraced the layering concept by Lisa Hoffman, and her Tuscan Fig fragrance is just to die for.
Plus, her iScentify scent finder is super fun to play with.
I also fell in love with the Juara Candlenut Fragrance.
This is a swoon-worthy coconut scent that makes everyone want to hug you. And then hug you again.
Favorite storage solution:
Wow, this one was a life changer – the Zuca Pro Artist Case.
It has totally changed my organizational system, and has made makeup gigs so much easier, as well as travel. Looks like we are going to be doing more contests with Zuca this year, so stay tuned!!
Favorite hand cream:
I am a hand cream addict, since I work at a school and need to wash my hands about twenty times a day. I cannot do without my Votre Vu Duette Lux Lip Balm and Hand Cream.
Little mirror, lip balm, and then hand cream, all in one package?? Absolute genius, and the hand cream smells truly amazing.
Favorite body products:
2011 was a Whish year for me, that's for sure. I love this retro line, every single product is a winner.
Just this morning I was thanking the Whish Gods for making their amazing Shave Crave Shaving Cream.
Tarte Cosmetics is a line better known for its great color products, but a true unsung hero is the Tarte Celebutante.
It's a gorgeous body shimmer spray that smells unbelievably good, like fresh coconut and vanilla. Yummy!!
Speaking of coconuts, I went pretty 'coconutty' for the Bodycology Island Coconut products.
The body cream, body wash, and body spray are all truly terrific, and I reach for them all the time.
Favorite sunning/self-tanner products:
I am a big fan of faux tanning, and I had some great discoveries this past year. Hampton Sun is a go-to line for any sun products, including faux tanning. I love the Privet Blossom products, they have a unique scent that is totally summer in a bottle.
The spray SPF is amazing, and the faux tanning and body shimmer products are excellent. Try this line, you won't be disappointed.
Another great discovery that changed my faux tanning was the Beautisol Self Tanning Magic Mitt.
This $6 wonder completely changed my faux tanning experience for the better!! No streaks, no worries, no problems. Love it!!
I also fell in love with Tan Towels. Such a quick, sanitary way to get a deep tan, plus the towelettes travel so well.
Favorite cleaning products:
I am the first to admit that housekeeping is never a priority for me, so finding things that help make cleaning joyful is huge for me. Sweet Grass Farm has pretty awesome cleaning products that give me extra motivation, my favorites are the Dusting fragrance and Lemon Verbena Liquid Soap.
Favorite clothing line:
I am totally digging the Sprigs clothing line. Pictured above I am wearing my Banjee while shopping. I love these little guys, they really do make life easier. And I wear my infinity scarves all the time too. So many great items, it's a fabulous line that I am so happy I discovered this year!
That's it for all my favorites of 2011. And now on to an amazing year of even more terrific discoveries in 2012!! – Lisa

I have used this product for at least 8-10 years (perhaps more). I believe it keeps my face clear and free of age spots, brown spots and freckles. I was practically born with freckles but I don't have any freckles since I have been using C E Ferulic. This is one product that works like it is supposed to. I love it and feel like I couldn't live without it! I use it once daily in the AM under my sunscreen. I keep the main vial in the refrigerator for freshness. Freshness is very important with this product. I won't use it if it turns dark yellow. I try not to expose the serum to light and transfer it into little sample vials to use one at a time. I only order from authorized retailers to ensure that the product is genuine. The scent is distinctive--smells like hotdogs, but I don't mind. I have never broken out from using it and it has never irritated my skin. I use this in addition to a very good mineral sunscreen and also take supplements (Heliocare) to protect my skin from the sun's damaging rays. I also eat a lot of lycopene and dark berries which are suppose to have skin protecting properties. Even a small amount of dark chocolate is supposed to help protect skin from the sun. I try to incorporate external and internal ways to protect my skin from UVB/UVA light. I am a product junkie and constantly trying new things but this is one serum I never want to be without.

My skin regime have mostly consisted of sunscreen at day,retinol and a serum a night.
With fair skin prone to sun damage, an addition of ce feurolic under my moisturizer with spf, seemed like a good way to add more protection from the suns damaging rays.
I have som dark spots on my cheek bones, and after almost 8 months on retinol i hardly noticed any difference. Hence my surpise when the ce feurolic first startet to brighten my skin, and then my sunspots were starting to diminish. My under eye circles also seems less dark
Will buy again. Would prefer a pump bottle

I was gifted a bottle of this to me from a dermatologist I had befriended.
Here is what I like about Skinceuticals C E Ferulic:
-Grade A ingredients. This isn't full of useless fillers. All of the ingredients are scientifically proven to work.
-Annnnd since the ingredients are proven to work, this is an effective product. It *should* fade sunspots/acne scars, smooth wrinkles over a bit, and prevent your skin from accumulating more sun damage.
I would reccomend this to anyone with dry skin and NOT acne prone. That was my biggest issue with C E Ferulic serum... it contains vitamin E as a main ingredient. I get that vitamin E is effective at healing skin, but why must so many cosmetic companies put it in their products? Vitamin E leaves a tacky moist film on the skin that will clog *most* acne prone customers.
I broke out using this. I knew as I applied this that my face would errupt like a volcano. It left such a gross film on my skin I felt as if my pores couldn't breath from the get go. But I never learn my lesson, do I?
Anyways, I applied the rest of the bottle to my neck area where I do not get clogged pores or an abundance of oil production. While my neck does feel smoother and I haven't had any sun spots show up, I don't think I would repurchase this for that purpose alone.
Edited to add: My bottle turned quicker than any other vitamin c serum I have ever had. Literally within weeks it went from being a light yellowish clear hue to medium orange. I googled around and found this is still good....... until it turns to a dark red. Just wanted to add this in since it's a common occurrence. Storing it in the fridge in a dark, cool spot should help prolong the longevity of your bottle.

This product for sure brightens up the face as soon as you use it. But as far for me, I had terrible cystic acne after using this.
But once you stop using this, your skin goes too dull. I think that was the reason people have to hold on to it forever and they say they cant live with out it.
My feeling is it is making you depend on it, but it does not improve your skin. This is just my skin. May be this worked great for others.

I'm still on my sample vial, so I cannot address the king term effects. However, I would like to know if anyone else has found it to smell rather like ham or balonga? And, am I doing something wrong, because I feel I have to race to get the serum on my entire face? It sinks in soooo fast!

I agree with most of the reviews where this is a great product. I use antioxidant serums more as a preventative measure and I'm fortunate that my skin condition is fairly good. So while I can't claim that it helps reduce wrinkles or anything I do find that it makes my skin look even toned and glowy. And unlike some products, I am convinced that whatever cocktail of ingredients is included in here really does work - my skin feels and looks healthy. I use this in conjunction with Phyto + to help treat a hyperpigmented spot on my cheek and the pigmentation has noticeably diminished. Another reason why I like this serum is that because it's water based it absorbs quickly and it's so thin, it's easy to layer other products in your skincare regime.
This is by far the best and my favourite antioxidant serum. The only problem for me is that it's expensive (but you only need maybe 3-4 drops for your face and neck so it can last) and its not available here in Malaysia. I have to rely buying online but it's not always in stock and then I'd have to buy some other brand. If Skinceuticals was readily available, this would be my go to product. Highly recommend.

I was given a small sample of this serum by an esthetician 8 or 9 years ago. I've been using it every morning since then. My skin has always been pretty good, so the focus of my skincare routine is preventative: i.e., I'm trying to prevent signs of aging. I believe that CE Ferulic serum helps me maintain a smooth, clear skin texture with a nice glow. And hopefully it helps prevent sun damage, such as dark spots and wrinkles. So far, so good.
The price is high, but bear in mind that you only need to use 3-4 drops on your face. It lasts a long time. However, it oxidizes and turns dark fairly quickly, which may mean that it is losing effectiveness. So it's probably a good idea to use it up within a couple of months, or 3 at the most.
The CE Ferulic is the first serum that I apply after cleansing each morning. I follow with 2 (or sometimes 3) other serums/creams, including peptides. Lastly, I apply a mineral sunblock with a minimum of 30 SPF on cloudy winter days and up to 100 SPF in summer. Hopefully, this regimin will do the trick. I'll update you all in 20 years! :) In the meantime, I recommend CE Ferulic.

I used this product for 3 mos and loved it. I felt my skin was responding to look toned and healthy when I ran out. I substituted a cheaper brand and see none of the former results. Will reorder as soon as possible. My esthetician recommended I use it saying I might not notice a huge difference for 18 mos or so. I put the 5 drops on the back of my hand soas to have a bit left for the back of my hands.

My first review on here, although I've been a member many years! I wanted to comment on the product because the reviews seem very divided, either people love it or hate it.
First to note I've used it for only 10 days, so any comments on long terms effects will have to wait. Also, I have quite oily skin for a 30-something caucasian, and I know many people commented that this is not so great for oily complexions.
I bought two trial sized bottles to try because I was in the market for a serious boost in my sun protection arsenal. I avoid the sun like the plague and I wear SPF50 every day, all year round, but I recently relocated to a state that is warm and sunny all year round (good for lifestyle, terrible for white skin!)
So far the main complaints most people have named - smell, stickness, oily residue - have not been issues for me whatsoever. I don't care if the smell is not fragrant, as long as the product is efficacious. Priorities anyone? The consistency is different to other serums I have used, but it's not abhorrent and it absorbs fine, it just takes a day or two to get used to how much you need to use and how best to rub it over your skin. And honestly, I live in a warm climate already but I haven't noticed pronounced oiliness in my makeup after applying the product, I always need to blot and powder at least once during the day anyway, due to the heat and my oily skin, and this hasn't made it so much worse that I noticed.
I'm not one to make claims about products too soon but I do take good care of my skin and it's in good condition so improvements do manifest fairly early in my complexion, because my cell turnover is good and the canvas is pretty receptive to new active ingredients. I noticed my skin is softer, more bouncy, and a smidge more even so far (like I said, it's been 10 days). I don't have a ton of sun damage on my face but I'm also using it on my neck chest arms and hands every day and my arm pigmentation is responding, I definitely notice it with the naked eye.
About the price, it is pricey but I think I will go ahead and fork over the money to get the full bottle in a few days because I do think I want to go the long haul with this product. I'm of the mind that products that are scientifically advanced and formulated with a real potency are worth the price tag. I don't want to pay 55 dollars for a product that smells nice and looks nice but does nothing. If it's over a hundred but it is powerful and cutting edge, I'm going to be lining up for it. Maybe I'm crazy or a sucker I don't know, but that's how I feel when it comes to skincare.
Lastly the complaint about the bottle/the way the product changed colour over time - if the maker says it is still efficacious after changing colour slightly, and has not changed the bottle even after years of negative reviews claiming - as laymen not scientists - that it's no good, I feel like, maybe we should trust the experts and just use it as it is. I do keep mine in the fridge but that's just cos I think, why not, better safe than sorry. I don't mind the dropper and I think it's not such a big deal if the manufacturer continues to sell it like this it can't be so bad.
OK that's it! I say if you're on the fence get the tester samples like I did and good luck! :-)

The European Tactical Communication Market Will Remain Buoyant Despite Current Economic Climate, Notes Frost & Sullivan
LONDON, March 23 /PRNewswire/ — Despite the economic downturn, the European tactical communications market will remain stable and is poised to earn revenues of $1.58 billion by 2018. The regional defence communication market will grow steadily because many European Ministries of Defence (MODs), increasingly cognizant of networked communication as a force multiplier, have been actively upgrading tactical communication (TACCOM) capability.

New analysis from Frost & Sullivan (http://www.aerospace.frost.com), European Tactical Communication Market Assessment, finds that market earned revenues of $1.06 billion in 2008 and estimates this to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.1 per cent between 2008 and 2018, to reach $1.58 billion. This significant increase in revenue can be attributed to rising demand for networked communication largely driven by software-defined radio (SDR) technology that enables radios to integrate with more capable satellite communications (SATCOM) terminals.
"Radio technology closes in towards networked communication capability through high capacity data radio (HCDR)," says Frost & Sullivan Research Analyst Maj. Sabbir Ahmed (retd.) "Products such as high band networking radio, software defined personal role radio, and tactical network (TacNet) solutions are likely to drive a transformational shift in the TACCOM landscape."
These products set up TacNet architecture in the theatre of operation, where all radio sets including vehicular and airborne as well as SATCOM terminals are used as nodes. The network also integrates existing command and control (C2)/battle management systems (BMS), and air defence communication systems into a single IP environment enabling seamless transmission of voice, data, and video contents from decision centres to the last tactical mile.
SDR technology is enabling the integration of tactical communication and elements of situational awareness at the soldier level. This means that navigation, imagery, and identification sensors are increasingly incorporated into soldier communication gear, blurring the boundary between tactical communication, navigation, and sensors at the frontline. Such integration will enable war fighters down to section level to be well-informed, and reduce sensors to decision-makers to shooters lag through a continuous feed of battle intelligence.
However, the integration of varied legacy radio systems is a challenge for this market. Market participants are looking at projects like the joint tactical radio system (JTRS) in the United States for a solution and to act as a universal standard by using software-defined architectures, although this is yet to materialise. The issue of interoperability and integration depends on uniform standards, specifications and procurement regulations, which have yet to be implemented across the European MODs.
"Various radio waveforms are still evolving and a process of systems integration solutions has yet to become fully effective," explains Ahmed. "MODs are increasingly pushing the onus of their equipment management (from initial purchase decisions to routine maintenance, and end-user training to interim capability upgrades) onto the supplier companies," concludes Ahmed. "Several European countries have resorted to the 'wait-and-see approach' for clarity on the direction and pace of changes in the communication technology in one hand and the evolving through-life communication network management in the other." It is therefore imperative for the defence companies to understand the nuances of through-life capability management (TLCM) of nodes and networks as the technology evolves if they are to remain competitive going forward. Effectively managing project risks through proper understanding of cost implications related to services delivery at various stages of the equipment life cycle would certainly help them remain profitable along the journey.

HoopsHype Jamaal Tinsley rumors
Steve Luhm: Brothers called the Jazz "a fine organization." He would not put a time-frame on Tinsley's possible return. Twitter @sluhm
Bill Oram: Ty Corbin says the Jazz have "some interest" in bringing back Jamaal Tinsley. "He's a guy who knows our system," Corbin said. Twitter @bill_oram
Tinsley nearly signed with the Brooklyn Nets earlier in the offseason, but the team ultimately decided to go with Shaun Livingston instead, according to sources close to the situation. Now, Tinsley is weighing his options and considering several other teams such as the Dallas Mavericks, Houston Rockets, Charlotte Bobcats and Phoenix Suns among others. HoopsWorld
Alex Kennedy: Sources say if the Dallas Mavericks reach a revised agreement with Devin Harris, it's unlikely they'll continue to pursue Jamaal Tinsley. Twitter @AlexKennedyNBA
Alex Kennedy: The Dallas Mavericks, Houston Rockets, Charlotte Bobcats and Phoenix Suns have expressed interest in Jamaal Tinsley, according to sources. Twitter @AlexKennedyNBA
Bill Oram: Brooklyn was Jamaal Tinsley's primary suitor beyond Utah, sources say. If the Jazz want him, he remains interested in returning. Twitter @tribjazz
Net Daily: #Nets interest in Livingston is not new. He has been at the top of their list for weeks. Tinsley also there, but he is more 1A. Twitter @NetsDaily
Bill Oram: The Jazz were no doubt busy last night, but they did reach out to PG Jamaal Tinsley, a source said. Twitter @tribjazz
Peter Vecsey: Jazz hoping to re-sign Jamaal Tinsley. Knicks have him targeted as well. Possibly Nets, tho may have more eyes 4 Shaun Livingston & Ridnour Twitter @PeterVecsey1
Unrestricted free agents Randy Foye and DeMarre Carroll have both publicly said they hope to stay with the Jazz, while sources told The Tribune that 35-year-old point guard Jamaal Tinsley would also like to re-sign and serve as a mentor to Burke. Salt Lake Tribune
Tinsley, who joined the Jazz in 2011 after spending a season in the D-League, is grateful to the Jazz for giving him a chance and expressed a desire to stick around another year. "I would love to come back here, but that ain't up to me," he said. "I don't control that, I let my agent control that." Deseret News
Tinsley's 10th NBA season has seen him start 32 games and then unable to get off the bench in 22 others. In Tinsley's mind, though, that is small potatoes compared with other events in his life. "My issue was just the off-the-court stuff," he said. "Anytime you can overcome anything in life it should make you a better person, especially if [there's] something that you love to do. And that's basketball." Salt Lake Tribune
The Jazz have 15 games remaining in this season, not counting the potential for a playoff run. It's unclear how long Tinsley's career will extend beyond this season. What is evident, though, is that two years with one of the most straight-edged franchises in the NBA, one with a serious aversion to controversy, resurrected the career of one of the NBA's bad boys. "Coming to an organization like this," Tinsley said, "usually they wouldn't sign guys like me, so they say. But who is that guy? Get to know that guy first, then make the judgment." Salt Lake Tribune
Shams Charania: Jamaal Tinsley hasn't received indication he'll be waived by Jazz to make room for Travis Leslie, a source close to the guard tells RealGM. Twitter @ShamsCharania
Steve Luhm: Jazz point guard Jamaal Tinsley on the Cavs' Kyrie Irving: "... He could be great." Twitter @sluhm
A smiling Kanter's explanation: Tinsley supposedly told him popcorn has special healing powers. Tinsley joked back that Kanter acts like he was born in a barn. It was natural to put some corn in that particular trough, right? Deseret News

If you run a business, most likely your customers are on a social network site. You should make sure your company is also on one or more of these social media sites. Discover which social media sites are of the most interest to your customers, and get your business branded on them immediately. WIthout it, you are missing opportunities to build deeper relationships with current customers, and to find new customers that may have never heard of your business before.
No matter if you are creating a tweet, a blog post or a Facebook piece, be sure your titles grab attention and make readers want to learn more. When you have good and interesting content you will see that your visitors will more likely come back and also share your content.
Know what it means to converse. What many companies forget is that once a customer gives feedback, they are opening the door for conversation. Take advantage of your customers' willingness to reach out by inviting dialogue and responding to their feedback. Find out what your customers really like and dislike about your products, and use that information to help move your company forward.
Decide if you want a relationship with the consumers. Keep your advertising simple when you want to boost sales through social media marketing. To be more interactive with customers, give them a simple greeting. The customers will respond and you can go from there.
To help your website become friendly and interactive with social media marketing, you should add ratings, comments and the ability to sort items. If you add these options, your visitors can find the content that everyone has read, and they will be able to give you their opinion.
Interaction with your customers should be one of your primary goals. Put comments on your Facebook and on your blogs if you feel it is a good thing. Avoiding getting into personal discussions with your customers, stick to product or industry related issues only.
Add a tag to your Twitter posts. Tags are what you see after the # symbol. These let you make sure that your updates show up in your group subscriber feeds. Wisely choose the tags you use and keep an eye out for groups that you think your target audience will like.
Establish the best rate for you to update your social media pages. If you have a new campaign or product, frequent updates will be expected by your visitors. If you are having a hard time coming up with new content, slow down and take the time to write quality articles.
Don't let any comments on your Facebook profile go without a company response. You should do this for negative comments as well. You will grow trust by developing a real presence on your sites. Respond as soon as you can so the person feels important and wanted as a customer.
If you are going into social media marketing, you have to be able to deal with the negativity that can be associated with it. Of course, you want your followers to post positive comments about you, but this isn't going to always happen. You must be prepared to handle the negative ones as well. These remarks should be dealt with quickly to show you care about your customers.
Building up a hefty following in social media won't happen right away, so always be patient. Potential customers must feel good about you before they committed to buying from you or working with you. Ease up and try to do this individually. Before long, you'll have a long list of clients.
Social media is a great way to expose your special offers to a large audience. People will be more likely to find you on Facebook if they have access to more content and can get better discounts. Your goal in social media marketing is to give your customers a venue for getting to know your business better and feeling more personally involved with your brand.
Do not overwhelm your social media followers with too many posts. Post up to three times each day, but no more. Frequent updates throughout the day are not appreciated by potential customers and can hurt their impressions of a company instead of improving them. Post up to three important thoughts each day, and then stop until the next day.
Hold an online contest or sweepstakes with appealing prizes and use social media to let people know about it. People love getting things that are free, and they will gladly fill out any forms or follow your business on any social media site if they could possibly win. Share the information on the winner to gain credibility.
Brainstorm options to simplify the ability of your clients to pass your information to their friends. Buttons and links allowing readers to share via Facebook and other sites should go on top of each post you make. Doing so might require a little extra time and effort on your part, but you'll notice the difference that it makes.
Make it simple for your consumers to subscribe to an email newsletter. Although email marketing can be a bit outdated when compared to marketing with social media, you can still gain the attention of consumers if you have something interesting to promote.
Social media is currently an important part of many business marketing efforts. You can engage any customer one-on-one, speak to the masses and tailor everything the world knows about your business all in one easy to use and cost effective place. Get involved with social media marketing and learn all that it can do to benefit you.

As of September 13, 2013, the Arizona Secretary of State is no longer accepting registrations from charities that solicit charitable donations in Arizona.
Arizona House Bill 2457 repealed the former Section 44-6552 of the Arizona Revised Statutes. That section previously required each charitable organization to file an initial registration statement with the Arizona Secretary of State before soliciting its first contribution in Arizona, whether through a contracted fundraiser or otherwise.
The former Section 44-6552 also required each charitable organization to file an annual registration statement between September 1 and September 30 of each year after the calendar year in which it filed its initial registration statement. For purposes of the former registration requirement, a charitable organization was defined as either (a) a tax-exempt organization pursuant to Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code), or (b) an organization that is, or that is held out to be, established for a benevolent, educational, philanthropic, humane, scientific, patriotic, social welfare or advocacy, public health, environmental conservation, civic or other eleemosynary purpose or that in any manner employs a charitable appeal as the basis of a solicitation.
The initial registration statements and renewals were considered public information and available for inspection. Veterans' organizations are still required to file registration statements with the Arizona Secretary of State prior to soliciting money or support in the name of American veterans.

How voting works
Approval rates
Proposition U authorized the school district to borrow $417 million.
Grossmont Union has more than 20,000 students. Voters in the district approved a $274 million bond measure in 2004.[1]
According to the San Diego Union Tribune, "Candidates in the race for two seats on the Grossmont school board are divided over Proposition U. Incumbents Priscilla Schreiber and Larry Urdahl and challenger Carroll Boone support the measure. Challengers Meg Jedynak and Gary Woods oppose it."
A 55 percent supermajority vote was required for approval.
Election results
|Proposition U
- These final, certified, results are from the San Diego County elections office.
Ballot question
The question on the ballot:
|PROPOSITION U: "To better prepare local high school students for college and high demand jobs, by upgrading educational technology, constructing science labs, replacing deteriorated portables, rehabilitating aging classrooms/equipment/sites/joint-use facilities, improving safety/energy-efficiency, and constructing a new school in Alpine/Blossom Valley; shall Grossmont Union High School District issue $417,000,000 in bonds at legal rates, qualifying for State matching funds, with independent oversight, annual audits, no funding for administrator salaries, and all money benefiting East County high schools?"[2]
Path to the ballot
The Grossmont board voted 4-1 to place the measure on the ballot. School board trustee Jim Kelly voted against putting on the ballot, saying, "It's the worst time economically to have another massive tax increase."

Fair enough. I know a few people who have seemingly gone of music lately.
Have you heard the new Alcest? I seem to recall you were a fan of them?
Fair enough. I know a few people who have seemingly gone of music lately.
Have you heard the new Alcest? I seem to recall you were a fan of them?
I heard the teaser song they released and loved it. Haven't get the album yet. It's about the only other thing I've been interested in this year.
You're my wife now!
I think it's good. It seems to be a bit hit and miss with people I know. Generally people who think they're a black metal band and haven't heard Souvenirs D'un Autre Monde don't like them, but I find most who do know that album quite like the new one. I really rate it myself, aswell as the new Les Discrets which is a bit less immediate and needs a few listens to warm to I (and a handful of friends who I told to persevere with it) found.
I've been listening to Dir En Grey a lot this last week, not sure if there are any more fans here. Uroboros is fantastic, and Kyo is arguably the sickest vocalist in metal. (I dare you to find someone with more range)

Got the same mail this morning.
I too got that message
soooo keeeeeeen
lose ourselvesalong the way
It's pretty good. I don't think it's as good as WHBWH, but definitely a solid follow-up.
To be fair though, when you release an album like We're Here, your never going to have an easy time topping it.
Yeah, and considering it took them 7 years to make it. Weather Systems is after all 3-4 leftover songs that didn't make it to WHBWH, so that explains something.
Finally got around to ordering the latest Alcest album. Looking forward to it.
You're my wife now!
Good man.
Ea's new self titled album arrived in the post this morning. They are a Russian funeral doom band, and the album features a single 47 and a half minute track, but it's very good and well worth a listen for anyone who's into funeral doom. There's some very nice elements, especially the choral section that enters around the 8/9 minute point. It seems to take a lot of the best elements of the genre ad throw them into one monolith of a track.
does anyone in here listen to sunn o)))?
i've got ØØ void (found the japanese edition in a shop aw yeah) and it's pretty cool but do all their albums sound exactly the same? i can't exactly imagine doom drone sounding any different from NN O)))
lose ourselvesalong the way
Weather Systems arrived this morning, and good god it's good. I'm on my third listen, but really it's my first as I was somewhat preoccupied with my girlfriend if you catch my drift
Still, initial impressions are very good indeed. Feels like a nice balance between Were Here and Falling Deeper.
i got back from seeing Exhumed/Cannibal Copse yesterday, with Abysmal Dawn and Arkaik.
first two bands were okay, they put on a decent show but the acoustics of the place were shitty in the first place which made the already few and far between riffs hard to hear. the guys themselves put on a good show. but tech death isn't much my thing. i had the typical problem with them i have with most tech death, too much guitar noodling without enough riffs and the drum sound was real shitty and triggered.
then Exhumed came out and ****ing WRECKED. one of the best shows i've been to so far. it was about a 10 song set, from stuff all around their discography, from demo stuff to stuff off the new album. i wish it was a bit longer but since they were an opener i can't complain, that's longer than normal. only complaint about it is that i didn't get the fake blood on me.
i left after the first few Corpse songs because my ride was having car troubles and i don't trust cabs, but they seemed alright. i probably would have gotten into it more if i had heard something from Eaten Back To Life before i left.
also new Saint Vitus has leaked for anyone following 2012 stuff.
I'm still gutted I missed Exhumed when they played Manchester.
There's a new Thunderkraft album out, god knows what genre I'd call it, but it's certainly interesting.
Got my copies of Weather Systems & Love and Endings today. Kscope are awesome.
kscope really is the best. i was so pissed when i missed out on their porcupine tree transmission IV ebay listing by £2. friggin ninja bidders
i still haven't gotten weather systems but i'm hoping it gets here by friday
so no one listens to sunn o)))?
lose ourselvesalong the way
i've put off Nokturnal Mortum for a very long time due to not liking any other folk metal at all really, aside from gimmicky bands like Swashbuckle and Alestorm, and i do admittedly have a soft spot for a few Eluveitie tracks. kind of sad that i did, The Voice of Steel seems pretty solid.
also i cannot stress how good Acid Bath are. i know some people think they straddle too close to the whole 90's alternative/nu/grunge/whatever for most people but they're so good.
i want to post "Finger Paintings of the Insane" or something else off When the Kite String Pops but it's not nearly as accessible as Paegan Terrorism Tactics
they're okay i guess, decent when i feel like having background music when i'm just laying around not doing anything but i don't return to them very often.
Altar is a pretty nice release, but pretty much everyone will tell you to go to Monoliths & Dimensions next. but i think Altar (and again i'm speaking from limited experience) seems a bit more dynamic to me.
if you don't already have any i personally stick to Jesu for drone, but you probably already like them, judging from your other posts. but i don't like drone much, so.

03 October 2013 21:13 [Source: ICIS news]
HOUSTON (ICIS)--Air Products will build several plants in India to supply hydrogen, synthesis gas (syngas), nitrogen and oxygen for Bharat Petroleum's refinery and proposed petrochemicals complex in Kochi, the US-based industrial gases producer announced on Thursday.
Air Products and Bharat Petroleum have signed a long-term supply agreement and target late 2015 for initial supply of gases.
Under the agreement, Air Products's two steam methane reformer trains will produce 16.4 tonnes/hour of hydrogen to be used in production of fuel and petrochemicals. France-based Technip is providing engineering and construction services for the hydrogen facilities, Air Products's first in India.
Additionally, Air Products's cryogenic syngas purification system will produce a mixture of hydrogen and carbon monoxide (CO).
Steam from Air Products's units will be used for Bharat Petroleum's manufacturing process, and an air separation unit will produce nitrogen and oxygen for the refinery and petrochemicals complex.
A gas turbine will produce power for the Air Products facilities.
Bharat Petroleum is undergoing a $2.6bn (€1.9bn) integrated expansion project that would increase crude refining capacity to 15.5m tonnes/year. The improvements will allow the production of cleaner fuels to meet European specifications, and the downstream project will allow the company to produce a greater variety of petrochemicals.
($1 = €0.74)

Canucks slip past Wild in OT 3-2
VANCOUVER, British Columbia Given another chance to unleash one of the league's hardest shots, Sami Salo didn't miss.
After not connecting a few seconds earlier, the hard-shooting Vancouver defenseman walked into a slap shot at 4:39 of overtime, overpowering Minnesota goalie Niklas Backstrom high on the glove side to give the Canucks a 3-2 win over the Wild on Saturday afternoon.
"I knew there wasn't much time left," Salo said. "I felt bad on the first three shots so I thought I'd give it a shot and good things happen."
Especially when you can hit it as hard as Salo, who has won several of the Canucks' annual hardest shot contests with blasts of more than 100 mph.
The Finnish defenseman got the chance to tee one up from the middle of the ice with Dany Heatley in the penalty box for slashing Ryan Kesler's stick in half.
"Not a smart play," Heatley said. "That's really all there is to say."
Kyle Brodziak put Minnesota ahead with 1:49 left in the second period, but Jannik Hansen tied it with a nifty deflection 2:06 into the third.
Then Heatley, who scored the tying goal late in the third period in Edmonton on Thursday, caught Kesler's stick as the Canucks' center got out of his own end.
"You never know if the stick's going to break or not," Heatley said.
"It's kind of a gray area, too. If the stick breaks every time is it a penalty? I don't even know the rule. But still I can't put myself in that spot."
Daniel Sedin also scored as Vancouver extended its home win streak over the Wild to eight games.
Backup Cory Schneider, making his third start of the season, finished with 21 saves for the Canucks, who also posted consecutive wins for the first time this season.
They celebrated by announcing a big trade with Florida right after the game, sending Marco Sturm and Mikael Samuelsson to the Panthers in exchange for left wing David Booth, center Steve Reinprecht and a third-round draft pick in 2013.
Devin Setoguchi also scored, and Backstrom made 29 saves for the Wild, who are still looking for consecutive wins under new coach Mike Yeo, but have points in all but two of eight games (3-2-3).
It was the fifth time in six games they have gone past regulation, but still haven't won in Vancouver since Jan. 31, 2009.
"This is twice we've lost games because of a penalty in overtime but I also know he's not trying to be undisciplined," Yeo said of Heatley.
The Canucks, coming off consecutive 40-shot games, only managed four in the first period of a rare early afternoon home game and fell behind when Heatley made a nice pass to send Setoguchi in alone inside the faceoff circle.
But Vancouver fired 15 shots on Backstrom in the second, and forced a couple of great saves before Sedin tied it on a power play with 3:32 left after a hard pass from behind the net pinballed off Backstrom, defenseman Nick Schultz and in the net.

Best of Class
Your must-go-to Chiu Chow restaurant in HK
Chinese food consists of popular types of cuisine—Shanghainese, Cantonese, Peking, Szechuan and Hakka Chiu Chow.
The most popular are Cantonese, Shanghainese and Szechuan.
Chiu Chow tends to be simpler but equally flavorful, and is known to be healthier than the other types of Chinese cuisine. Chiu Chow dishes are lighter, less oily and rely heavily on fresh ingredients.
Also known as Swatow food, Chiu Chow cuisine originated in the city of Shantou, in the coastal region of Guangdong Province, 300 km from Hong Kong.
Fish, oyster, goose, duck and crab are major features of this cuisine. Poaching, steaming and braising are predominant methods of cooking, along with stir-frying.
With the food selections at Pak Loh Chiu Chow Restaurant, one can also eat very well without having to break the bank.
Pak Loh Chiu Chow was founded in 1967 by S.H. Pui. Its first restaurant on Hysan Avenue in Causeway Bay has become an institution. It is always packed mostly with locals and a few tourists. (We've seen Robert Kuok of Shangri-La Hotels there on two occasions.)
Highlights of traditional Chiu Chow cuisine:
1. Shark Fin's Soup, Chiu Chow-style—The sauce is braised with pig's trotter which makes it thick and creamy, then oyster sauce is added. Super tasty.
2. Freshly Steamed Cold Crab—Steamed large red crab from the South China Sea. It is steamed for 20 minutes and topped with ginger slices and spring onions.
3. Steamed Freshwater Goby Fish—Steamed and simmered in ginger and spring onions. Super light and clean-tasting.
4. Baby Oyster Omelette— Potato starch is mixed with the baby oysters and fried with duck egg. Chinese version of patis is dipping sauce. The gooey texture makes you eat more rice.
5. Fried Sliced Chicken with Chinjew Sauce—This is a very traditional dish that has Szechuan pepper fried with the chicken.
6. Double-boiled Pig's Stomach Soup with Salted Vegetables—The pig's stomach is double-boiled with the salty vegetables with white pepper. (White pepper is very good for the stomach. That's why people feel warmth in their stomach after having this soup.) Perfect for winter.
7. Sauteed Green Beans with Minced Pork and Preserved Olives—The crunchiness of the beans and hearty taste of the pork have a nice texture.
8. Sliced Soya Goose—The most important ingredient is the dark soy sauce. It's full of Szechuan pepper, Chinese herbs, tangerine peel, cinnamon, etc. The sauce itself is about 40 years old; we have to boil it everyday to keep it. The goose is dipped in a mild, white vinegar. The best! This is a must-have.
9. Deep-fried Whitebait—It looks like French fries and is dipped in salt and black vinegar likened to sukang Iloko. Kids love this dish.
10. Whelk (shellfish equivalent of the Japanese Fugu)—The meat is sliced and poached, so that you can taste the freshness of the whelk. It is served with tangerine sauce. Skill is required in preparing this dish, just like Fugu.
Other new innovative dishes one must try are Lamb Rack with Fish Sauce, Shrimp with Basil, Smoked Eel, etc. Always check out the specials of the season.
At the beginning and end of every meal, authentic Chiu Chow restaurants serve a very strong oolong tea called Tieguanyin in very tiny cups, like hot bittersweet tea shots. It's great for digestion and is very potent, it feels as if hair is growing on your chest when you down it. It is also known as Gongfu Cha.
The original Hysan Avenue Pak Loh Chiu Chow location is by far the best. Other branches may be found at: 16/F, Lee Theater, North Point, and Elements in Kowloon; K11 and Grand Century Plaza in Mongkok.
If S.H. Pui were alive today, he would be 91. We are quite certain that he is looking down happy at how his son Raymond and grandson Joey safeguard the age-old traditions of popular Chiu Chow dishes.
Clearly, Pak Loh is here to stay. Chinese comfort food.

It was around this time last year that my neighbor and her 90+ year old mother taught me the knit stitch. I just finished my third scarf for a friend who will be visiting next week ( I am slow). Tonight I sat down with some yarn and a book and taught myself the purl stitch. Yes, I only knew the knit stitch but it was enough for me at the time. Like learning the knit stitch my arms are sore from new learning but I know this will pass. While I was able to figure the stitch out I am not sure how I should be holding the yarn so that it flows. Think I will call on my neighbor again for some advice. Afterall, she is 70ish and has been knitting a long time.
This is a scarf I made in 1997, I also knitted a sweater with the matching colors. It was a very beautiful sweater. Very Heavy. It had all kinds of yarn, from Icelandic Wool, to some mohair to acrycic. I may get motivated and make some sweaters, I want to buy those detachable circular needles. Does anyone has them, the ones you change the tips, How will you rate them.
I'm glad to see more men knitting. Eventually this will lead to an increase in the availability of men's patterns as various publications begin to realize that more and more men are defying stereotypes and picking up the needles and demanding something interesting to knit for ourselves. I was looking through the January 2006 issue of Creative Knitting last night, and they only featured two patterns for men. The hat was okay. I might knit it this summer when I'm wondering what to do with all my odds and ends of cascade 220. The sweater, however, was another sweater designed by a woman for a woman to knit for her man. It wasn't exactly something I'd knit for myself or even wear if some woman did knit it for me. These sentiments are typical for almost every knitting publication or pattern book I look through. I realize these publications won't change until their marketing departments can begin to measure in dollars the amount of men looking for good patterns. But in the meantime, where does everyone get his patterns?
So much for the Oscar Wilde allusion. Imagine my excitement when I discovered a sideways garter stitch glove pattern in an old Spin-Off (using short row shaping). Ok, so many you can't imagine my excitement if you don't know my tenuous history with thumb gussets on mittens - but needless to say, I was excited! The pattern called for size 4 needles, the pattern fitting a "women's medium" hand. I have pretty small hands and thought if the glove fit, I'd wear it - if not, surely some lucky gal in my life had daintier hands and would love some gloves. I used size 6 needles, and a thicker yarn, to make for a larger gauge. Just finished mitten #1 - it's a beaut - and it was easy as pie - but ARGH! Not only did it not fit me, it didn't fit any women living in a three mile radius of me. I think I may felt it for a keychain.
To all you guests lurking about.............join!!! It's painless!!
It's been several months since I've posted anything. Here's a quick update: Doing a toque for my daughter, boxed up the scarf for my deployed friend, finished a dressy scarf for my MIL, and a fun scarf for a good friend. I've got a bin full of yarn, and I'm packing it all up to move to Savannah, Georgia. Yeah, I'll really fit in there! well, it'll be fun. Are there any knitters here in Savannah? Let me know... I'll be there mid-December.
Well, my wife taught me to knit and then went on a trip with her sisters for a couple of weeks.Anyway I stayed home and have knit us each a scarf. I was able to bind off and finish the end of the scarfs but I am not sure what to do with the tail of yarn left at the beginning of the scarf. It looks like I better not just cut it off or it will unravel. Thanks for any help!
My computer says 11 guests online & 2 members. anyone want to chat?
Hi Everyone:
My name is Andy, I live in San Francisco, I work with knitting and crochet. I have been Knitting since 1988. Right now for the holidays I am working on some Knitted hats, nothing fancy like David's cabled skull cabs, but cool enough to say nice hat. Have a nice weekend. Here is one of my hats, half acrylic, havlf chunky wooll ease.
I'm knitting kilt socks for my son...the first sock was a reject because it was too tight at the top when I tried it on...so I started over and added two more cables and it's fine.....

This photo gallery is also available as a post in the Five Apps Blog.
Businesses cannot escape the fact that social networking has become a necessity. Not only to spread the word about your product or service, but for keeping your own finger on the pulse of the consumers in your market. It's free PR with serious payoff.
Here's the problem - the standard browser-based clients don't always offer all of the features you might want or need. From aggregation to easy photo posting, in order to make the most efficient use of your social networking efforts, you need clients that make the job easy. I have found five desktop social networking clients that are not only easy, but free too.
Five Apps
1. Sobees
Sobees is an incredibly powerful tool that not only allows you to update your status across multiple account types (or multiple Twitter accounts), it also offers a powerful search tool, and even allows you to edit the layout of the client. The ability to assign different social networking accounts to different sections of your layout, makes Sobees really stand out.

It's one thing if these tools are used for personal use, but itâs another thing if theyâre used for business use, either for internal business or customer facing. The big weakness is ITâs ability to support business demands for e-discovery and timely destruction of e-communications in the social media setting. IT may not be able to protect the business or electronically govern the use. IT constantly struggles with users demanding more, and this article helps make it easier for the user. But little may be gained if we ignore the looming risk. A business that allows e-services that have no audit trail may have its head in the sand. The bigger the business, the greater the risk.

We understand that it can take a few days or a few weeks to determine if your new furniture will work for you. We encourage you to return or exchange products in a timely manner because damage or wear may result in an adjustment to your final refund. We don't charge a delivery fee for returns or exchanges within the 48 contiguous states. However, original delivery charges are not refundable.
