This was an amazing experience, our group to a person were in awe of the sights of lake Armadeus, the Olga's and Ayres Rock, our pilot was amazing in his commitment to our safety and his knowledge Of the lakes Olga's and Ayres rock.
This is a tour I would highly recommend to any visitors Ayres rock.
Great trip, Ben our pilot was fantastic very friendly. It is worth doing this flight to see Lake Amadeus it is spectacular. We were lucky be the only passengers on our flight so had great views. Can't recomm this trip enough
Absolutely excellent. Just how you organised perfect weather and flying conditions is beyond me. A highlight of our trip. Lake Amadeus was something everyone should see.
The only way to see the massive scale of the outback , and watch the sun rise over the red centre. Wow!!
Amazing, would definately recommend
Robert G Australia
A fantastic flight and view of the area. Only two of us in a 4 seater helicopter, so it was our own private flight!
Stephen B United Kingdom
This was the highlight of my month long trip down under.
What can you say about it!!! Uluru and the Kata Tjuta from the helicopter, made you feel like you're inside a nature documentary. Wonderful scenery. Highly recommended. We loved your staff, so courteous.
A great way to see Uluru and surrounds. The helicopter ride in itself was an exciting, fun thing to do, very stable even on the windy day we travelled. The views were superb and the height allowed us to have a really amazing perspective of how huge the rocky monoliths are. A spectacular way to start your time at Ayers Rock. The only negative was that it was a little hard to hear the pilot's narrative, however, he was excellent and made us feel very welcome and safe.
Ronald B Australia
Enjoyed thoroughly, well worth the ride! Saw hundreds of wild camels and the weather and visability was perfect.
My husband would give this a 5 and I would give it a 1, so we settled on a 3. The reason for the difference of opinion? Where we were seated. I was stuck...and I mean STUCK in the middle of the second row. When I looked forward, I saw a black column with a fire extinguisher on its side, completely blocking any forward vision and on either side were other passengers who, without meaning to, blocked my views with their persons and their cameras. The seat also had a metal frame over my head that forced me to slouch down (I am 5'9") in order that the headphones could be worn to hear Morgan, the pilot's, commentary. It was a miserable and uncomfortable 55 minutes That space should not be sold as a seat. Now, my husband was in the front, next to the pilot so he had a lot of space and was able to take good pictures. I saw the sights through these photos after the flight. The views I missed are amazing.
William B Australia
We stated I was hearing impaired at the outset. The pilot proceeded to place another person in the front seat and placed me immediately behind her. Had I been placed either beside her or diagonally opposite behind I could have lip-read. I had hearing aides in but had to switch them off because of feedback in the headsets. We did the helicpoter tour becasue that is what we do when we travel to places with exciting or different terrains. We also did the tour because our daughter and son-in-law did a 30 minute tour with your company exactly 12 months ago. They were thrilled with the proximity the the Kata Ktuta and Uluru and the detail the pilot gave them. We chose the 55 minute tour thinking it would be a much better tour than the 30 minute one. All we got was a bigger bill, less proximity to the features and a commentary which we felt was less than adequate. We are sure the dentist who sat beside the pilot had a wonderful time bacause the pilot played to his every question and response. If the microphone system worked then the pilot failed to advise how to make it work. My wife's every question was ignored. Perhaps the head sets need attention and the pilot instructing on how to commentate. We booked with you on our daughter's recommendation. After the event we were told that the tour company provides excellent service to people with disabilities. If only we had known.

The philosophy of one century is the common sense of the next.
Henry Ward Beecher (1813 - 1887)
Contributed by: Zaady
A man's true state of power and riches is to be in himself.
A love of flowers would beget early rising, industry, habits of close observation, and of reading. It would incline the mind to notice natural phenomena, and to reason upon them. It would occupy the mind with pure thoughts, and inspire a sweet and gentle enthusiasm; maintain simplicity of taste; and . . . unfold in the heart an enlarged, unstraightened, ardent piety.
The strength of a man consists in finding out the way God is going, and going in that way too.
Source: Albert W. Daw Collection
There is no true and abiding morality that is not founded in religion.
A mother has, perhaps, the hardest earthly lot; and yet no mother worthy of the name ever gave herself thoroughly for her child who did not feel that, after all, she reaped what she had sown.
When God thought of mother, He must have laughed with satisfaction, and framed it quickly - so rich, so deep, so divine, so full of soul, power, and beauty, was the conception.
Nothing can compare in beauty, and wonder, and admirableness, and divinity itself, to the silent work in obscure dwellings of faithful women bringing their children to honor and virtue and piety.
A thoughtful mind, when it sees a nation's flag, sees not the flag only, but the nation itself; and whatever may be its symbols, its insignia, he reads chiefly in the flag the government, the principles, the truths, the history which belongs to the nation that sets it forth.

The hottest team in the WNBA meets one of the coldest June 27 when Connecticut visits Washington at 7 pm in the Verizon Center. The Sun are riding a six-game winning streak including a 79-69 rout over an Elena Della Donne-less Chicago Wednesday. Along the way, the Sun have moved into second place in the eastern conference.
Maryland All-America Alyssa Thomas seized the opportunity when an injury to Connecticut's starting shooting guard, Allison Hightower, put the former Terp on the floor. Thomas scored 12 of her 23 points in the third quarter and had 11 rebounds to lead the Sun to their win.
The Mystics broke out of a slump Wednesday in which they had lost three of four and seven of the last nine. Washington ended the latest losing streak with an 81-70 win in San Antonio in front of nearly 11,000 spectators.
Tierra Ruffin-Pratt and Ivory Latta each had 15 points to lead Washington. Emma Meesseman had 10 points and 13 rebounds and rookie center Stefanie Dolson scored all 10 of her points in the fourth quarter to help Washington (6-9) snap San Antonio's three-game winning streak. Kayla McBride scored 17 points, Danielle Robinson added 16 points, Danielle Adams had 12 and Sophia Young-Malcolm 11 for San Antonio (7-7).
The last time the Sun and Mystics mixed things up, Washington's Kia Vaughn led her team to a 74-66 win. Vaughn put up 16 points and grabbed eight boards. Vaughn, Monique Currie and Latta combined for 40 points for the Mystics.
However, in order to ensure another win over Connecticut Friday night, Vaughn and the Mystics defense need to contain the 2014 No. 1 overall pick Chiney Ogwumike, who had 16 points and 9 rebounds for the Sun last time out and was almost able to push the Sun to a win. Thomas wasn't starting when Connecticut fell June 5. Thomas is averaging 9.5 points and 5.3 caroms per game.

Clarke Remains Consistent with NTC Performance
Courtesy: BCUathletics.com
Release: 06/05/2012
June 5, 2012
Reach T&F Contact Michael Stambaugh for more details by E-Mail
CLERMONT, Fla. – Kemar Clarke wrapped up the final non-championship event for Bethune-Cookman over the weekend in the NTC Last Chance meet at the National Training Center's Track & Field facility. Clarke matched his top time from the last round of NCAA Championships to earn ninth overall at NTC, and first among collegiate entries, remaining on track for this week's NCAA National Championships.
At Saturday's NTC Last Chance, Clarke had some challenges in the 110m hurdles, clocking a 13.97, but advancing to the finals. In the interim, he took on the 100m dash, running a time of 10.67.
However, returning to the track in the 110m hurdles final after hitting some hurdles in the prelim, he won the second finals heat, logging a time of 13.65, matching his time from the NCAA East Regional, taking ninth overall and first among collegiate performers.
"Running the 13.65 again shows he is at the level he needs to be ready to run in the next round NCAA Championships," said Head Coach Donald Cooper. "We look forward to Nationals this week."
Clarke continues his chase of a hurdles title in Des Moines, Iowa, at the NCAA National Track & Field Championships. The 110m hurdles semifinal is Thursday, June 7 at 6:50 at Drake University. Beyond the NCAA, Clarke is also anticipating further competition as well, heading to an Olympic Trial.
"Once we tackle this obstacle, we will set our sights on the Jamaican Olympic Trials," Cooper noted, "as he has already qualified with his current performances."

Russian President Vladimir Putin arrived in Riyadh today for a historic two-day official visit to Saudi Arabia. It is the first such visit to the Kingdom by a Russian leader.
President Putin received a red carpet welcome upon arriving at King Khalid International Airport, where he was greeted by Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Abdullah bin Abdulaziz and Crown Prince Sultan bin Abdulaziz.
King Abdullah and President Putin held a round of official talks at the King's palace in Riyadh tonight. The King also hosted a State dinner in Putin's honor and presented him with the King Abdulaziz Medal.
While in the Kingdom, Putin will meet for talks with King Abdullah and Crown Prince Sultan. After the talks, Saudi Arabia and Russia are expected to sign a series of agreements. Putin is also scheduled to visit the National Museum.
Saudi-Russian ties have grown closer since King Faisal visited the former Soviet Union in 1932. In 2003, then-Crown Prince Abdullah paid an official visit to Russia, which resulted in a landmark agreement on energy cooperation between the two countries. Today, Saudi-Russian cooperation extends beyond oil and trade to a variety of areas, including culture, sports and launching satellites into space.

- Company: Endovanera
- Price: $396
- Official Site: Endovanera.com
- Release Date: 2008
Take a look at this modern gray raincoat from Endovanera in 100% cotton. The military-style, double-breasted front features a button-front closure. Two side, front-slash pockets keep your hands warm and the back of the coat features a pull-back tab closure. The large collar offsets the slim sleeves and the trim fit is accented by a asymmetrical storm flap button closure.
This raincoat style with a double-breasted front closure is certainly not a new element in fashion design. The proportions Endovanera uses in this jacket, however, breathe new life into an old concept. The slim sleeves and trim fit with high arm holes and short shoulder width mean you won't be wearing this jacket over a sweater and multiple layers. The point here is to preserve a fitted body profile. Additionally, the asymmetrical storm flap looks just this side of different to add a modern twist to an old classic without getting out of control.
It's supremely well-made, but a bit drab with the mossy gray color. This pull back jacket is meant for the modern man in us all, but one does wonder about the tight fit. This is not to say you should be afraid of this coat and begin the slow spiral into wearing loose-fitting sweat suits, but you do need to think about how this one is going to last with your personal style. If you lean toward the minimal with an eye for quirky details, then you've got a new coat. Just be forewarned, however, that the slim fit of the coat needs to be matched with the same sense of minimalism in your choice of pants, shirts and especially shoes. As a stand-alone item, this is a hands-down winner.

Hoiberg makes it official; promotes Charlie Henry
Chris Williams
For weeks, every indication out there has pointed toward Charlie Henry being named as the replacement to Doc Sadler on Fred Hoiberg's Iowa State basketball coaching staff.
On Monday morning, the news finally became official.
"Having worked with Charlie the past two years, I've seen how valuable he is to our program," Hoiberg said in a release. "Charlie is a hard worker with great attention to detail. He is very dedicated to helping our program and our players improve. Charlie is as good a young basketball mind as I've ever been around and has a bright future as a basketball coach. I have no doubt he will be a huge asset to our staff."
Henry's young career has featured stops at every level of the game up until now. He was an assistant coach at Romulus High School in Detroit and was a graduate manager at the University of Utah. Henry got a taste of the NBA while working as a video coordinator for the Indiana Pacers in 2011-12.
In 2012-13, Hoiberg hired Henry as a graduate assistant at Iowa State. He was promoted to the title of director of player development last season and now is the second assistant coach under 30-years old on Hoiberg's staff.

Dear W.C.,
I am a mother of two children. We are third generation Americans struggling financially to live in our country. Why are so many Americans fighting off homelessness? I live day to day in absolute fear of my children and I becoming homeless.
It has been a rough year for me due to my health. I fell last winter and broke my leg. I lost my job right before my fall. There were complications and my leg needed surgery. I was laid up for several months while trying to care for my children on my own. My ex-husband has abandoned us and moved out of the country in order to avoid child support. My mother helps as much as she can, but she is caring for my father who has Alzheimer's. They live in a small one bedroom apartment. My father cannot be left alone anymore and he gets very confused around my children.
I have been looking for work but jobs are hard to find with so many unemployed. I lost my car a few months back because I couldn't make the payments anymore when my unemployment ran out. I borrow my mom's very old car when I need to drive anywhere. In exchange I run errands for her.
A few years ago I saw this true story about a father and son who became homeless. They were using public bathrooms to wash up and eating out of dumpsters. Each day was like a living hell for them. I remember crying for them. Now I find myself facing the same terrible situation. Please help us. I don't know what to do.
Jobless, Injured Mother
Dear Readers,
I like to see enthusiasm for work when people are physically capable. When they are not it is a different story. I see so many seniors working now to try to get some extra income beyond their insufficient Social Security. I see people with many physical and mental challenges, eager to try to support themselves. This mother was eager to support herself. She did not like asking for assistance. When we met I realized how bad this woman's fall must have been. She still walked with a bad limp.
The woman said her husband had been a good father but then began to drink after he lost his job. He left his children without even a goodbye. She is very hurt by his lack of feelings for even his own children. She began to cry telling me how great their life had once been, before his alcoholism. She struggled without child support but still got by until she lost her job last year, and then slipped on the ice and severely broke her leg this past winter.
She did not have health insurance and her injury was much worse than she even imagined. Her leg was broken in two places and required surgery. Then she got a staph infection in the hospital. She was laid up for several months and became very ill. Her children had been a big help to her during her recovery. They even helped her to her feet from the couch when she needed to get up. Her mother would drop off food for them a few times a week and do laundry.
Her rent was extremely reasonable and she really wanted to be able to stay where they were. When she found a job it would be much easier for her to afford the overhead at the apartment they were renting. I made a call to a friend I knew was looking for some office help. This mother had a degree in marketing and business and could put it to good use. She made an appointment for an interview the following week. I asked if she had anything suitable to wear to the interview and she said she did not. She had not been working in an office setting previously so she did not have the proper work attire. I referred her to several outlets for clothing and supplied her with gift cards for suitable clothing for both herself and her children. I also provided her with information for additional assistance from Health & Human Services.
The only thing she would need was a reliable car to get her back and forth to work and to the day care center. We made arrangements to supply her with an upcoming donated vehicle. We also brought her rent and utilities up to date. We provided her with grocery gift cards to supplement the food she received from the food pantry.
I called her after her first day at work. We had gotten a used vehicle repaired and ready for her just in time. She was very excited to tell me about her first day. She said she felt right at home with the employer and the office. She felt proud to be dressed for work each day in professional looking attire, supporting her family on her own. She was another of our fellow American's eager to work in this ongoing recession. The last time we spoke she cried, thanking The Time Is Now To Help, for putting their lives back together and removing their fear of becoming homeless.
I thank all of you for your kindness in Caring & Sharing what you have been blessed with to help our fellow creations. Please take advantage of the "S.M. Fall 2010 $10,000 Matching Grant". Every dollar you donate will be matched by another. Thank you for Caring and Sharing.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A backpack (also called rucksack, knapsack, packsack, pack, Haversack, or Bergen) is a cloth sack put on somebody's back. It usually has two straps that go over the shoulders. It is used to carry things in it, and it often has many compartments for you to put things in. People often use backpacks on camping trips, hikes, or any form of outdoor activity where people need to carry many things. Backpacks are also be used in the military by soldiers. It can be also used in school, or in this case, it also called a bookbag or school bag.

OK, gang, I finally found time on the flight to San Francisco to answer your mailbag questions. Here's Part I of the Q&A, and thanks for the great participation:
Q: What was the breakdown of our 53-man roster last year (meaning how many QBs, RBs, WRs, etc. etc.). Is it true we had seven cornerbacks on the roster last year? Would you expect less than that this year? Also, when is the 53-man to be set? Thomas Chisholm, Atlantic City N.J.
A: Thomas, the final roster must be set on Sept. 5. Last season's roster is irrelevant. The makeup changes yearly, depending on the depth of talent and injury situation. The Saints kept seven cornerbacks last season, but Mike McKenzie's injury history played a factor in that decision. Remember, they cut Jason Craft a few games into the season to get down to six. Here's the breakdown of the rest of last year's final roster: Offense: two quarterbacks; six wide receivers; eight offensive linemen; three tight ends; four running backs; one fullback; eight defensive linemen; seven linebackers; seven cornerbacks; four safeties; one place-kicker; one punter; one long snapper. Again, I don't see any reason to believe the Saints will follow this quota this year. Remember, there's a new defensive coordinator on board, and he has a different philosophy. The Saints also have the four-game suspensions of Smith and Grant to consider.
Q: With Reggie Bush and Pierre Thomas locks to make the roster and Mike Bell doing well enough that it would appear he'll get the third spot, what is the status with the other halfbacks? Do you think Lynell Hamilton, P.J. Hill or Herb Donaldson will make the cut to 53? Chris, Albany, N.Y.
A: The Saints kept four running backs last season, Chris, and I think they'll do the same this year. It all comes down to special teams and which player can contribute most in all four phases. In that regard, I think Hamilton has the advantage for the final roster spot since he plays on the first units. Hill and Donaldson are eligible for the practice squad, so the staff has flexibility to stash one or both of them there if they are inclined. It wouldn't surprise me to see another team make a waiver claim for Hill and/or Donaldson since injuries are so prevalent at the position. We'll certainly know more in a week's time. The final two exhibition games should determine the depth at this position, because all three players are going to see plenty of action.
Q: When Jonathan Vilma was with the Jets and they changed from a 4-3 to a 3-4, he had a significant drop-off in production and blamed his ability to work in that scheme. Obviously, Coach Williams is smart and understands that, as he tries to tailor his schemes to his talent. I'm curious then how Vilma will function in Williams' 3-4 scheme (given that they will generally run a 4-3). Will Vilma play those downs, and if so, do you have any idea how Vilma has adjusted to these sets? Do you know what in particular about the 3-4 gave Vilma fits when he was with the Jets? Gordy.
A: Williams loves Vilma. He's the Drew Brees of the defense and isn't coming off the field in any situation. A successful 3-4 run defense requires a dominant nose tackle. Dewayne Robertson manned the position during Vilma's tenure and wasn't good enough to occupy blocks. The Jets defense took off when they acquired Kris Jenkins from Carolina. My guess is Vilma would have excelled there playing behind a stud like Jenkins. Vilma is smart, physical and instinctive but he's not the biggest linebacker around. His production is usually a by product of the defensive tackles in front of him. That, more than scheme, is why Vilma's stock dropped in New York.
Q: Can you predict the workload and output for the running backs this season, broken down by each player, with carries, touchdowns and yards? Is there a chance that Pierre isn't the starter, or at least a chance he's not the top touchdown scorer? J.E. Huntsville, Ala.
A: Very difficult to say at this point, J. E. I don't think even Sean Payton could tell you what kind of production any of his backs will have at this point. So much depends on their health and the weekly game plan. Regardless, I don't think the club will have a true No. 1 back this season. From game to game, I expect Bush, Thomas and/or Mike Bell to start and work in a regular rotation. Carries will be spread between the three. Bush obviously is going to see his share of touches and everyone in the organization thinks he's primed for a breakout season. His spate of recent injuries, though, is troubling. I'm not sure you can count on someone of Bush' stature -- 5-10 and change, 195 pounds or so - to hold up over the course of a 16-game season. For that reason, I had projected a big year for Thomas. Now he's injured. And Bell appears to be making a strong push for playing time. Obviously, each of these guys is going to carry and catch the ball out of the backfield. Their number of touches likely will change from week to week.
Q: I know Grant and Smith wont count against the roster once Weeks 1-4 come around, but what about the Sept. 5 deadline? Do they count against the final 53 then? What are your thoughts on how this may affect the Saints in making the final roster decisions? Glenn Fitzner, Metairie.
A: Good questions, Glenn. Smith and Grant will go on the reserve/suspended list at the start of the regular season and will not count against the 53-man active roster. The Saints will have to cut two players from the roster after Week 4 to reactivate them. Obviously, the suspension will factor heavily into the Saints' roster decisions next week. I expect the club to keep four ends. Remember, defensive tackles Anthony Hargrove and DeMario Pressley also are capable of playing end, and the staff will consider their versatility when making cuts. Bobby McCray, Paul Spicer and Jeff Charleston are locks in my mind. Until Smith and Grant return, the fourth end could be either Hargrove of Pressley.

I have two dictionaries. For example:
dict_a = {'verbs': ['run', 'go', 'eat'], 'nouns':['dog', 'cat', 'bear']}
dict_b = {'verbs': ['jump'], 'nouns': ['human']}
I have written a function that can take all the items in each list from dict_b and place them into their proper spot in dict_a. (I.e., dict_b 'verbs' will go into dict_a 'verbs', etc etc...)
However I also need to write a function to take out those same words from dict_b if they are in dict_a, but I'm kind of lost. I've written a few things, but none of them worked. I'm not expecting anyone to do the work for me, but if someone has a hint give... That'd be awesome.

Fantasy Spin: MacDonald making a case for time
Tuesday, 02.14.2012 / 3:10 PM | Pete Jensen - NHL.com Staff Writer
As the
Detroit Red Wings
look to make history Tuesday against the
Dallas Stars
, goaltender
Joey MacDonald
will try to keep the ball rolling from a personal standpoint.
The 32-year-old netminder has posted a 3-1-1 record and is unbeaten at home this season as the Wings seek their 21st consecutive win at Joe Louis Arena -- which would set a new League record. MacDonald is expected to get the nod again over
Ty Conklin
, who had served as Detroit's backup all season long to
Jimmy Howard
prior to his injury.
Howard, who still leads the NHL with 32 wins, could be back in the crease as soon as this weekend after suffering a broken finger on Feb. 2 against the
Vancouver Canucks
. But despite this news, it's still hard to ignore MacDonald's stock in the Motor City -- which is rising by the day.
MacDonald has allowed two goals or less in three of his four starts since being recalled from the Wings' AHL affiliate earlier this month, while posting a 1.87 goals-against-average and a .926 save percentage. When Howard returns to the lineup, he obviously warrants the bulk of the playing time. But with the twists and turns that come over the course of the NHL season, it is highly unlikely that MacDonald's performance in big spots over the last few games will be forgotten. Regardless of whether or not MacDonald will be reassigned when Howard returns, he has kept the Wings' streak going and made quite the impression on his teammates, coaching staff and the rest of the hockey world.
In the meantime, MacDonald is only owned in 18 percent of Yahoo! Leagues, so he remains a valuable commodity with games on tap for Detroit against Dallas, Nashville and San Jose to round out the fantasy week. If Howard decides not to rush back into the lineup or if he takes some time to get back to game speed, MacDonald could stick around after outperforming Conklin by a landslide since the call-up.
This journeyman goaltender has stepped into the fire during a historic win streak, absorbed the pressure and delivered results. For those reasons, as long as he's on the roster at the NHL level, he can be relied upon from a fantasy perspective.

The matching of energy supply and demand under hypoxic conditions is critical for sustaining myocardial function. Numerous reports indicate that basal energy requirements and ion handling may differ between the ventricles. We hypothesized that ventricular response to hypoxia shows inter-ventricular differences caused by the heterogeneity in glucose metabolism and expression and activity of ion transporters. Thus we assessed glucose utilization rate, ATP, sodium and potassium concentrations, Na,K-ATPase activity and tissue reduced:oxidised glutathione (GSH/GSSG) content in the right and left ventricles before and after the exposure of either the whole animals or isolated blood-perfused hearts to hypoxia. The hypoxia-induced boost in glucose utilization was more pronounced in the left ventricle compared to the right one. ATP levels in the right ventricle of hypoxic heart were lower than those in the left ventricle. Left ventricular sodium content was higher and hydrolytic Na,K-ATPase activity was reduced compared with the right ventricle. Administration of the Na, K-ATPase blocker ouabain caused rapid increase in the right ventricular Na+ and elimination of the inter-ventricular Na(+) gradients. Exposure of the hearts to hypoxia made the inter-ventricular heterogeneity in the Na(+) distribution even more pronounced. Furthermore, systemic hypoxia caused oxidative stress that was more pronounced in the right ventricle as revealed by GSH/GSSG ratios. Based on these findings, we suggest that the right ventricle is more prone to hypoxic damage as it is less efficient in recruiting glucose as an alternative fuel and is particularly dependent on the efficient Na, K-ATPase function.

The table looks very different to when we last did our predictors and now the makeup of the league might be taking a shift. To look forward to that the pod also dip into the Championship for a lil' while. Go to EPLTalk.com to vote on who you want to see go up.
Both at the top and bottom of the table, key clashes saw a mixture of local and international talent show why the mixture of players makes the Premier League such a great show at this point in the season. Who is your local hero of the season?

Summerize your Skin
We're all about summer this week on the M Point of View. Depending upon where you live, the summer sun feels different, but here in Vegas, it can be intense this July and August. Earlier this week we gave you some great summer travel tips, and today we're headed to Spa Mio to learn about some incredible products that will help you "summerize" your skin from our Spa Manager, Kate Wind.
To achieve an even tan this summer, Kate recommends Kimberly Parry Organic Cane Sugar Scrub with Peppermint and Sage Leaf. "This is the perfect product to exfoliate before heading to the pool," she said. "It will leave your skin feeling fresh and renewed." Another recommended product is MoroccanOil's Body Buff. Made from orange peel, it's a natural exfoliator that gently buffs your skin. When combined with Argan oil, vitamin E, avocado, sweet almond, safflower and sesame oil your skin will experience a renewed softness and smoothness before undergoing the sun's rays.
There are many, many bronzers on the market today, but few come close to GloMineral's Body Bronzer. It is good for all skin types to create a subtle but immediate all over tan. Best of all, the lotion formula enhances your own skin tone. "It looks incredibly natural," says Kate and it adds a hint of shimmer from light reflecting particles.
The biggest tip– never forget your sunscreen! "It is your best anti-aging defense," says Kate. She uses Obagi Healthy Skin Protection SPF 35. It's creamy but absorbs quickly and it won't make your face greasy. Wear it under your makeup or with tinted moisturizer.
Moisturizer for your Face & Body
Most of us switch our skin and body care each season because our skin has different demands in the summer versus the winter. Spa Mio's team likes Sun Shea Butter Body Lotion from Zents. Besides being handmade, this lotion contains green tea, chamomile, and elder flower in addition to shea butter so it's moisturizing and calming. Plus, it's fragranced. Who wouldn't want to smell like a fresh, summer day? It's an allure magazine favorite, so try it on your next visit.
GloMinerals Therapeutics Pure Hydration for face ranks number one with Spa Mio. It contains pink guava which is rich in tannins, flavonoids, vitamins, fiber, and fatty acids. What's cool about this product is that it's a lightweight gel and also contains squalane which is a greaseless oil that deeply moisturizes, nourishes, and plumps the skin. It's the perfect addition to any skin regimen.
Last but not least, Kate reminds you to also protect your hair! All Oribe styling products contain UV protection for your hair.
If there's a product you'd like to recommend to "summerize" your hair and skin, let us know!

My site and first mission is up
Its freewebs so it's nothing really special, although I feel like its well organized. If anyone wants me to host a mission I can do that no problem. The site has forums and a guestbook too.
Also, be sure to try out my first official custom mission - Skyhook Battle from Shadows of the Empire, which includes custom audio files (only 7 of them though). You fly the Outrider, just like in the game. It also will be hosted at Jefe Picaro's site, he just has to upload it.
Let me know what you guys think.

Fans urged to take their seats
by SAFC
Message for supporters.
Most supporters will be aware that persistently standing at football grounds is not permitted.
The club is receiving an increasing number of complaints from supporters, particularly those located in the South Stand area, stating that their view of the game is being compromised by some fans standing throughout the 90 minutes. Not only is this an issue of supporter comfort, but the club has a legal obligation to take steps against those fans who persistently stand as this breaches ground regulations and legislation.
By not being seen to be taking steps to eradicate persistent standing within the Stadium of Light the club could face seeing the capacity of certain areas of the stadium reduced, or if the problem persists, closed altogether, which will impact on the season card holders sitting in those areas – something naturally the club is very keen to avoid.
Supporters may have noticed increased stewarding in areas where persistent standing has become and issue and this has led to 38 supporters being ejected from the stadium for failing to comply with requests to remain seated.
SAFC's head of safety and security Paul Weir said: "The figure for fans ejected due to persistent standing last season as a whole was just 20 so we can see that there has been a significant increase in the early part of this season. We certainly dont wish to spoil the enjoyment of any supporters, we want a vibrant lively matchday atmosphere just as much as the fans do, but we also have legal obligations that we must be seen to be adhering to.
"We also have a duty of care to all of our supporters, including elderly and disabled fans who have contacted us very concerned that their enjoyment on a matchday is being compromised because people around them stand throughout the game. Naturally we want to ensure a safe, comfortable and enjoyable experience for everyone at the Stadium of Light and we'd ask supporters to listen to requests from stewards and help us to eradicate persistent standing for the sake of all fans."

I was born and raised in Owen Sound, Ontario, a small town on Georgian Bay. Having a french father, I speak in both French and English, which I found quite useful during my time spent in Ottawa for school. Due to the fact that I spent far more time and money in bars and clubs than I did in actual school, I moved back home to Owen Sound to work.
A lifestyle of excess finally caught up with me in the form of a stroke. After spending a week at University Hospital in London, Ontario I was released as I was suffering from no lasting effects from the stroke. I returned home and slipped into depression.
I could not get motivated nor did I care enough about myself to lose the weight. All that changed when I had a son. Finding out my girlfriend was pregnant was the jump-start I needed and I haven't looked back since!
I now live and breathe fitness, and I try to pass every ounce of knowledge I have picked up along my journey to anyone looking for help! I'm constantly in search of new information on training and diet and am currently trying my hand at natural bodybuilding.
I have lots to learn still and that's what I love about fitness so much, as there is always more you can do to your diet and training regime to increase your performance and gains. This never ceases to amaze me!
I am just a simple guy in pursuit of happiness and balance at home and in the gym, and that is what I will be sharing with you. Week to week I will go through my personal experiences, obstacles and triumphs during my training experience and my eventual pursuit of becoming a Professional Natural Bodybuilder! Hopefully I can inspire you as much as others have inspired me!

While Fools should generally take the opinion of Wall Street with a grain of salt, it's not a bad idea to take a closer look at particularly stock-shaking upgrades and downgrades -- just in case their reasoning behind the call makes sense.
What: Shares of Devon Energy Corp (NYSE:DVN) rallied 2.5% today after Bank of America initiated coverage on the oil and natural gas producer with a buy rating.
So what: Along with the bullish call, analyst Doug Leggate planted a price target of $100 on the stock, representing about 34% worth of upside to yesterday's close. So, while contrarian traders might be turned off by Devon's price strength over the past year, Leggate's call could reflect a sense on Wall Street that its asset monetization prospects still aren't fully baked into the valuation.
Now what: According to B of A, Devon's risk/reward trade-off remains rather attractive at this point. "Versus our initial positive view in early 2013, management has surpassed our expectations: this starts with EnLink, providing a public marker for a previously overlooked midstream business, but with options to monetize retained interests at an accretive multiple," said Leggate. "Critically, when adjusted for the value of its public holdings, we believe DVN stands on the lowest multiple in the sector."
When you couple that industry discount with Devon's attractive margin expansion and cash flow growth prospects, it's tough to disagree with B of A's bullishness.
Do you know this energy tax "loophole"?
You already know record oil and natural gas production is changing the lives of millions of Americans. But what you probably haven't heard is that the IRS is encouraging investors to support our growing energy renaissance, offering you a tax loophole to invest in some of America's greatest energy companies. Take advantage of this profitable opportunity by grabbing your brand-new special report, "The IRS Is Daring You to Make This Investment Now!," and you'll learn about the simple strategy to take advantage of a little-known IRS rule. Don't miss out on advice that could help you cut taxes for decades to come. Click here to learn more.

Post subject: Milan's, Jewel's, Thomas's Anthology
I was very disappointed in MIDNIGHT SCANDALS, the e-book anthology by Courtney Milan, Sherry Thomas, and Carolyn Jewel. Courtney Milans THE GOVERNESS AFFAIR is just about a perfect novella, so I know that she can do it; unfortunately, like her last novella (THREE WEDDINGS AND A MURDER), she didn't do it in this one either. Oddly enough, the minor characters are the real strengths in two of these novellas.
SOME mild SPOILERS. . . SOME mild SPOILERS
Courtney Milans selection explores a wife being totally controlled and isolated by her husband in a time when there is no legal solution. He refuses to allow her to do anything, read anything, go anywhere, see anyone (including her brother), all in the guise of "protecting her." Frankly, if she had been the heroine, it would have been a more interesting book. Instead, our heroine is this woman's companion who is running from her father's investors who were defrauded. As you would expect, the writing is fine, but it lacks Milan's past depth and detail. This book is just forgettable, that's all. Grade: C
A lot of Carolyn Jewels selection are sex scenes which were so usual that I pretty much skimmed them. The h&h were lovers years before, but he married someone else for reasons that come out in the book. His regret for marrying his wife because he was never able to love her (being still in love with the heroine) did not endear him to me, but instead, just made him seem weak. You know how you want to scream at a couple in the midst of the Big Misunderstanding, Just spit it out, already!? Well, I wanted to scream, Just ask her to marry you, you dolt! The real strength in the novella was the heroines sister-in-law, who uses her weakness and voiced concern to control people around her for their own good. Grade: C-
This novella contains the sequel to Sherry Thomass RAVISHING THE HEIRESS, giving a HEA to the woman in the previous book who was the original true love of that books hero. It begins with her reeling at Fitzs (the previous hero) decision to stay with his wife. To me, the choice of a heroine who was totally willing to break up her former lovers marriage, regardless of its impact on innocent people--including her own children--was insurmountable. The hero of this novella is a man who looks almost exactly like her former lover. To give Sherry Thomas credit, she pulls this ugh coincidence off pretty well. However, I just didnt like the heroine and I hated the premise, so this novella did not work for me. Grade: C-

Carolyn Jewel's story had something that took me by surprise. Major Spoiler:
There was mention in this story that the h had a pregnancy with the H's baby terminated when they knew each other previously for reasons I won't go into here. The H didn't understand why she had done it. Yikes.
This could be a hot button and upsetting to some readers. Is this the kind of thing people would want to be warned about in a review beforehand or is it so much of a spoiler that it shouldn't be mentioned?
I agree with Lynda on being disappointed by this book. I enjoy anthologies and had been looking forward to this one.

Re: disappointed. That makes three of us. The first story (Jewel's) was a DNF for me b/c one of the characters was so annoying I could not stand to read anymore. The second story (Milan) is still waiting for me to finish - I have enjoyed her past work, but this one is not very interesting. I may go back to it. (NOPE, just looked at where I left off. I'm done.)
I really bought this anthology for Sherry Thomas's story so I not only finished it, I read it twice - not because it was so good, but to see if I missed anything the first go-round. The story develops another dimension to Isabelle, a character from her current trilogy, but is not quite believable despite ST's impeccable writing. Mild spoiler:
the same day that RTH ends, really? And Millie and Fitz there as well, seemingly full of concern for someone who tried to end their marriage?
My second reading was to try and reconcile the two stories (RTH and ADITM). ADITM did make me think more about Isabelle and her POV - and that's what ST stories are all about - they are quite unforgettable.

I did like the stories by Jewel and Milan but I am sad to say the Thomas story was really bad. I didn't like Isabella in the previous Thomas book but there have been quite a few characters I disliked when they were supporting characters but once they became the hero/heroine in their own story the author often made me change my mind about a character. But hooking Isabella up with a Fitzhugh lookalike was not the way to make Isabella sympathetic - it just made her seem even more - pathetic? I don't know how to put it really.
