Fact: No matter how amazing your outfit, ill-fitting underwear looks bad.
If you thought good shoes were the staple that could make, break or transform an outfit, we're here to tell you you're wrong - it's what's inside (or underneath) that counts.
Lines, bumps, bra straps - they're all fashion faux pas that can be easily avoided if you take this advice.
We spoke to the experts to find solutions to the most common mistakes we all make - from what we're doing that's actually ruining our lingerie to how to achieve no-lines under sheer or fitted fabrics, we've got solutions for every lingerie woe.
- Why won't my lingerie last?
Do you just toss your bras and knickers into the washing machine? Bad move. The reason lingerie doesn't last as well as it should is because a lot of us aren't following the care instructions and we're forgetting to use a laundry bag. Also, all lingerie (including shapewear) is best kept out of direct sunlight.
- How can I achieve no-lines when wearing silk or jersey?
If you're wearing a slinky dress or jersey-anything, a seamless contour or moulded bra is your secret weapon.
- Can a bra really add a cup-size?
Two, actually. If you subscribe to the mantra that size does matter, one bra can actually add up to two cup sizes.
- How do I know my bra size?
Well, the obvious choice is to go to an expert and get fitted in a lingerie store. Because every bra fits differently, you might be different sizes across different brands.
When trying on the bra, if the underbust (i.e. 10, 12, 14) is firm then stick with this size and then correct the cup. For example, if you try on a 14C and you are not contained within the cup then move to a 14D.
- I'm planning to wear bodycon this holiday season. Help!
Don't sweat it, just step into some shapewear for total support under a slim fitting dress. Multiple different brands make great shapewear that comes in many different styles including bodysuits, camisoles and waist shapers, depending on the area you want to give some attention.
- Does my bra actually fit?
The most common mistake women make is actually pretty obvious, and leads to many of us walking around in ill-fitting lingerie.
Lots of us are actually buying a bra without trying it on. Remember that all brands fit differently, you may fit one size in a certain brand but the same size in another another brand may be completely wrong for you.
- Do comfortable strapless bras exist?
Can't find a comfy strapless bra that still serves its purpose? Look for non-slip lining to ensure you don't have to fiddle with the fit all day (or night).

The Australian Rugby League has ignored a plea from the Queensland camp to o overlook Bill Harrigan for next week's third State of Origin game, appointing him for a 21st appearance.
Queensland chairman of selectors Gene Miles says it's time to give another referee a go for the dead rubber between New South Wales and the Maroons at Suncorp Stadium. But it's been announced that Harrigan will take control of his 21st Origin - and 12th in succession.
The standby referee will be Tim Mander, who will also work with video referee Eddie Ward.

About Utah: Deseret News' photographer extraordinaire leaving 'the best job in the world'
Tom Smart, Deseret News
SALT LAKE CITY — There have been plenty of stories about the problems the newspaper business is facing. But it's about to get worse.
Tom Smart is leaving the profession.
Tuesday night, after the Utah Jazz finish their game against the Atlanta Hawks in Vivint Arena, Tom will pack up his camera gear, turn it back into the newspaper that hired him 45 years ago and call it a career.
At 62, he still has his energy, his knees and his common sense; he also has his horses, his snowmobile, his skis, his windsurfer, his wife Heidi, his beautiful daughters, his 11 grandchildren, his guitar and his Dennis Lehane books. All things being equal, he should get bored in about 50 years.
Still, the Deseret News without Tom Smart?
In the history of Utah journalism, has anyone covered the bases as well, or been a better ambassador, or won more awards, or consistently looked like they're having the most fun?
(Photo below by Laura Seitz, Deseret News)
For decades, Tom has crossed all the borders — on assignment with the education editor one day, shooting the governor the next, doing the Ute game the next — and he's done it all with a kind of bartender's aplomb. He knows everything and everyone, inside the staff and out, and everyone knows him. His friendships and respect extend from the State Capitol to the symphony to the sidelines of every football field and basketball court in Utah to the Salt Lake Tribune.
It all began when he was hired as a copyboy at the Deseret News in 1971, fresh out of East High School and all of 17 years old. He got his foot in the door of the photo department by volunteering to take pictures with his own camera on his own time. Before long he made it onto the bottom rung of the photo staff, assigned as baby photographer — back in the pre-Instagram era when parents brought in their newborns so they could get their picture in the paper.
He worked off and on for the D-News for the next 10 years, while getting his degree from the University of Utah (in political science) and also shooting for the Associated Press. The AP liked his work so much they dispatched him to the 1976 Olympics in Montreal and the 1980 Games in Moscow and Lake Placid.
Back from Moscow in 1980, deciding it was time to get serious about a career, he asked a history professor he admired at the U., Jim Clayton, for a recommendation to law school. Clayton's response: "What in the world do you want to be a lawyer for? You have the best job in the world."
(Photo below courtesy Tom Smart, Deseret News)
When numerous friends also looked at him like he was daft, "I kind of had this epiphany," says Tom.
He was hired full-time by the Deseret News in 1981. In 1984, just after he turned 30, the paper promoted him to chief photographer. He managed the department for the next 18 years until he had another epiphany — "I realized a bad assignment was better than a good meeting" — and demoted himself.
His deft touch at hiring prodigious talents award-winning shooters Jeff Allred, Laura Seitz, Scott Winterton, chief photographer Ravell "Flash" Call and director of photography Chuck Wing are all Tom Smart hires — remains to this day.

Pediatric Herpes Simplex Virus Infection
- Author: Swetha G Pinninti, MD; Chief Editor: Russell W Steele, MD more...
Practice Essentials
Herpes simplex virus (HSV) infections are ubiquitous and have a wide range of clinical manifestations (see the images below). Beyond the neonatal period, most primary HSV-1 infections occur in infancy and childhood and are transmitted primarily by contact with infected saliva. Primary HSV-2 infections are acquired after onset of sexual activity, and genital herpes infections are among the most common sexually transmitted infections.
See 13 Common-to-Rare Infant Skin Conditions, a Critical Images slideshow, to help identify rashes, birthmarks, and other skin conditions encountered in infants.
Also, see the Herpes Simplex Viruses: Test Your Knowledge slideshow for more information on clinical, histologic, and radiographic imaging findings in HSV-1 and HSV-2.
Essential update: AAP clinical practice guidelines
In January 2013, the American Academy of Pediatrics issued new guidelines for the evaluation of asymptomatic neonates exposed to HSV during delivery.[1, 2, 3] The guidelines assume laboratory access to polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assays for HSV DNA or type-specific serologic tests and may not be applicable in clinical settings without rapid testing turnaround times. Recommendations include the following:
Women in labor with visible genital lesions should be swabbed for HSV PCR and culture, and positive test results should be further analyzed to distinguish HSV-1 from HSV-2
A history of genital herpes should be obtained before the pregnancy
In women with a recurrent maternal herpes outbreak, skin and mucosal specimens should be obtained from the neonate for culture and PCR assay about 24 hours after delivery, and blood should be sent for HSV DNA PCR assay; preemptive treatment with acyclovir need not be started if the infant remains asymptomatic; if results become positive within 5 days, confirming neonatal HSV infection, the infant should undergo a complete evaluation to determine the extent of disease, and intravenous acyclovir should be initiated as soon as possible
In women without a history of genital herpes who have genital lesions at delivery, serologic testing should be done on maternal samples swabbed during delivery to determine the type of infection present; the infant should undergo a complete evaluation, and IV acyclovir should be initiated; if the mother has a first-episode infection and the neonate's results are normal, the infant should be treated with IV acyclovir for 10 days; if the neonate's results are positive, the infant should be treated with IV acyclovir for 14-21 days (depending on the extent of disease) and reevaluated to ensure clearance of the virus; after completion of IV acyclovir treatment, infants should receive suppressive therapy with oral acyclovir for 6 months
Signs and symptoms
HSV causes myriad clinical presentations, as follows:
Orolabial infection
Genital infection
Intrauterine and perinatal infection (herpes neonatorum)
Central nervous system infection
Infection in immunocompromised hosts
Other infections: Herpetic whitlow, herpes gladiatorum, keratoconjunctivitis, Mollaret meningitis, erythema multiforme
Clinical features of orolabial HSV infection include the following[4] :
Abrupt onset of illness
Listlessness or irritability
Inability to eat and/or drink
Gingivitis (with markedly swollen, erythematous, and occasionally bleeding gums)
Increased drooling in infants due to pain on swallowing
Vesicular lesions on the tongue, buccal mucosa, and palate with extension, at times, to the lips and face (these may rupture and coalesce to form large, ulcerated areas)
Tender submandibular or cervical adenopathy
In recurrent cases, a prodrome of pain, burning, tingling, and itching
Clinical features of genital HSV infection may include the following:
In first episodes, severe constitutional symptoms (eg, fever, malaise, myalgias [5] )
Initial itching and pain, followed by more troublesome signs and symptoms
Lesions that evolve from vesicles to pustules to wet ulcers and heal by crusting
Painful inguinal lymphadenopathy, dysuria, and vaginal discharge
Paresthesias of the legs and perineum
Urinary retention
Herpes neonatorum may be categorized as follows[6, 7, 8, 9, 10] :
Skin, eye, and mucous membrane (SEM) disease
Disseminated infection
CNS infection
Clinical features of HSV CNS infection may include the following:
Insidious or abrupt onset
Headache, altered consciousness, and focal neurologic abnormalities at presentation
Symptoms of aseptic meningitis (headache, fever, stiff neck, photophobia)
Symptoms of autonomic nervous system dysfunction and transverse myelitis (eg, hyperesthesia or anesthesia of the lower back, perineum, or sacral region)
See Clin ical Presentation for more detail.
Measures for diagnosing HSV infection in children include the following:
Isolation of the virus in tissue cultures (most common confirmation method)
Histologic analysis of scrapings or punch biopsy specimens
Cytologic evaluation via a Tzanck preparation
Serologic testing (only for determining past HSV exposure)
PCR assay (preferred for CNS infection [11, 12, 13] and possibly valuable for disseminated disease)
Lumbar puncture and cerebrospinal fluid analysis
Immunofluorescent microscopy
Brain biopsy
Imaging studies: Computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging
See Workup for more detail.
Specific medical therapy for pediatric HSV infection involves antiviral medications. Antiviral agents used include the following:
Oral acyclovir (most common)
Oral famciclovir (a prodrug that is converted to penciclovir)
Oral valacyclovir (a prodrug that is converted to acyclovir)
IV acyclovir (for encephalitis, neonatal disease, severe infection in immunocompromised patients, occasional cases of severe orolabial or genital disease, [14, 15, 16, 17] , and recurrent genital HSV infections)
Inpatient management is often indicated for pediatric patients with HSV infections. Suggested criteria include the following:
Many children with severe HSV gingivostomatitis who are dehydrated
Neonates with disseminated or CNS disease
Older patients with encephalitis who may be very ill at presentation
HSV infection in immunocompromised patients
Measures to prevent or minimize transmission of genital HSV infection include the following:
Avoid contact with individuals excreting the virus (difficult, because they are often asymptomatic)
Start oral antiviral therapy at the first symptom or sign of genital HSV disease
Promote condom use
Provide appropriate evaluation, counseling, and education
Measures to prevent transmission of HSV to newborns include the following:
Reassure women with recurrent disease that risk of neonatal infection is low
Perform cesarean delivery if a mother has active lesions during delivery [18]
Observe infants delivered vaginally by mothers with active genital herpes; follow up neonates carefully, and immediately institute antiviral therapy if symptoms occur [19]
In pregnant women with symptomatic genital herpes, consider antiviral suppressive treatment initiated at 36 weeks' gestation
See Treatment and Medication for more detail.
Herpes simplex virus (HSV) is a double-stranded, enveloped, DNA virus. Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) and type 2 (HSV-2) belong to the family Herpesviridae, subfamily Alphaherpesvirinae. Following initial infection, the herpes viruses become latent in the sensory neural ganglia (the trigeminal ganglion in HSV-1 infection[20] and the sacral ganglion in HSV-2 infection). Herpes simplex virus infections are ubiquitous and cause a wide range of infections from isolated mucocutaneous lesions to disseminated infection in all age groups. Neonatal herpes simplex virus disease is associated with high morbidity and mortality.[19] Herpes simplex virus infections are among the few non-HIV viral infections amenable to antiviral therapy. Available antiviral chemotherapy can be used to treat infection, shorten the clinical course, and, in certain circumstances, prevent infection with herpes simplex virus.
Infection occurs in a susceptible host following exposure of abraded skin or mucosal surfaces to the virus. After inoculation, the virus travels to the sensory ganglion, where it replicates and establishes latency. Recurrence occurs when the virus subsequently migrates along the peripheral sensory nerve, replicates, and produces a typical local lesion.[21, 22] Lifelong latency and periodic recurrences are hallmarks of herpes simplex virus infection. These reactivations can follow exposure to ultraviolet light, stress, hormonal changes, immunosuppression, and other infection.[23, 24] Histology of skin lesions shows cellular balloon degeneration, condensation of nuclear chromatin, and formation of multinucleated giant cells.[22]
Disseminated infection occurs when the host is unable to control viral replication leading to viremia and multiorgan involvement. It is usually seen in neonates and immunocompromised individuals (and very rarely in immunocompetent hosts). Specific immunologic factors responsible for immunity to herpes simplex virus are not completely understood. Both antibody and cell-mediated immunity influence the severity and frequency of recurrences. Herpes simplex virus is also believed to suppress innate immunity by suppressing the production of interferon-alfa and interferon-beta.[25] Additionally, titers of antibodies that mediate antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity inversely correlate with severity of neonatal infection.[26]
United States
Herpes simplex virus infections occur throughout the world, with humans serving as the only reservoir. The infection is acquired by intimate mucocutaneous contact between a susceptible host and a symptomatic or asymptomatic host shedding virus during primary infection or reactivation. Because the infection results in lifelong latency, the prevalence in any population is cumulative.
Beyond the neonatal period, most primary HSV-1 infections occur in infancy and childhood and are transmitted primarily by contact with infected saliva. Primary HSV-2 infections are acquired after onset of sexual activity and genital herpes infections are among the most common sexually transmitted infections (STIs).
The prevalence of herpes simplex virus infections depends on socioeconomic status, age, race, and geographic location. For example, approximately 33% of children from lower socioeconomic populations have serologic evidence of herpes simplex virus disease by age 5 years compared with 20% of middle-class individuals. Greater person-to-person contact in crowded living conditions is believed to account for the role of socioeconomic status in prevalence. The importance of daycare attendance is likely, but not well studied.
In the United States, HSV-2 seroprevalence increases from about 20-30% in patients aged 15-29 years to 35-60% in patients aged 60 years. This change represents a 30% increase compared with data from 1976-1980. Factors that increase the frequency of HSV-2 infection in older adolescents and adults include gender (more women than men), race (more blacks than whites), marital status (more divorced individuals than single or married individuals), and place of residence (more city residents than suburban residents).[27, 28]
The seroprevalence rate of HSV-2 in pregnant women ranges from 15-30%.[29] Approximately 10% of pregnant women who are HSV-2 seronegative have a sexual partner who is HSV-2 seropositive and are, therefore, at risk of contracting a primary HSV-2 infection during pregnancy. Transmission typically results from contact with an asymptomatic sexual partner with a reported risk of acquisition of approximately 10%.[30, 31] Overall, approximately 2% of women acquire herpes simplex virus during pregnancy.
Herpes simplex virus has worldwide distribution. The prevalence of genital herpes in developing countries is 2-74% and varies among countries.[32, 33] In African countries that are experiencing HIV epidemics, HSV-2 infection is highly prevalent (≥70%).[34] Evidence suggests that genital herpes simplex virus infection increases the risk of HIV infection and that persons infected with both viruses are more likely to transmit HIV.[35, 36, 37]
Most cases of infection with either HSV-1 or HSV-2 do not result in serious morbidity. Morbidity and mortality associated with herpes simplex virus are discussed in Complications. Mortality associated with herpes simplex virus is primarily related to perinatal infection, encephalitis, and infection in individuals who are immunocompromised.
At the time of vaginal delivery, the risk of herpes simplex virus transmission from a mother with true primary herpes simplex virus infection to her infant is approximately 50%. Women with primary infections at delivery are 10-30 times more likely than women with a recurrent infection to transmit the virus to their babies.[19] Infants born to mothers with newly acquired infections who do not have primary infections in the presence of preexisting immunity caused by another viral infection (ie, first-episode nonprimary) have a transmission risk of 25-30%.[38]
The neonatal herpes simplex virus infection rate is considered to be less than 2% when the mother has active infection caused by the shedding of herpes simplex virus acquired before pregnancy or during gestation before the onset of labor (recurrent infection). Approximately two thirds of women who acquire genital herpes during pregnancy have no symptoms.[30, 39] Of mothers who deliver an infant with herpes simplex virus infection, 60-80% have no evidence of genital herpes simplex virus infection at the time of delivery and have no history of previous genital infection and have sexual partners with no history. Of babies born to mothers with a primary infection near the time of delivery, 30-50% acquire the infection.
Neonatal herpes simplex virus infection is estimated to occur in approximately 1 per 3000 deliveries in the United States. In 2006, a lower incidence of 9.6 cases per 100,000 births was ascertained.[40] Studies determined that herpes simplex virus infection in neonates and infants was associated with substantial morbidity, mortality, and resource use.[41]
Although the risk of herpes simplex virus infection is not related to race, infection rates in the United States vary with race because of various factors, such as racial and ethnic differences in the prevalence of poverty and low socioeconomic status, access to health care, sexual and health-related behavior, and illicit drug use.
By age 5 years, more than 35% of black children are infected with HSV-1 compared with 18% of white children. Through adolescence, the prevalence of antibodies to HSV-1 in blacks is approximately twice the rate among whites. By age 40 years, HSV-1 seroprevalence is similar among blacks and whites. The prevalence of HSV-2 antibodies among blacks is 3-4 times higher than that among whites.
Seroprevalence among women of childbearing age in the late 1970s was estimated to be 50% for blacks and 20% for whites. By the late 1980s, rates of infection had increased to approximately 60% for blacks and 35% for whites. As shown in 2 nationwide surveys of HSV-2 seroprevalence in the last 2 decades, the cumulative lifetime incidence of HSV-2 reaches 25% in white women, 20% in white men, 80% in black women, and 60% in black men.[42] Studies have indicated that the seroprevalence of HSV-2 among Hispanics ranges from 17-22.3%. Infants born to non-Hispanic white women may be at higher risk of herpes simplex virus infections. This is a result of a greater likelihood that these women are herpes simplex virus seronegative and at risk of acquiring a primary HSV-1 or HSV-2 infection in late pregnancy.
Infection rates with HSV-1 tend to be similar in both genders during early childhood. However, through adolescence, the prevalence of antibodies to HSV-1 is slightly higher among females than among males. Rates of HSV-2 infection are higher in women than in men.[43] Nationwide surveys of HSV-2 seroprevalence over the last 2 decades have demonstrated cumulative lifetime incidences of 25% in white women and 80% in black women. This compares with rates of 20% in white men and 60% in black men.
Beyond the neonatal period, most childhood herpes simplex virus infections are caused by HSV-1. The seroprevalence of HSV-1 antibodies increases with age, and its rate is 20% by age 5 years. No increase occurs until 20-40 years of age, when 40-60% of individuals are HSV-1 seropositive. As a reflection of the association between infection and sexual activity, many HSV-2 infections occur around puberty and early adolescence. A progressive increase in HSV-2 infections occurs in all populations beginning in adolescence.[43] In the United States, HSV-2 seroprevalence increases from approximately 20-30% in those aged 15-29 years to 35-60% in those aged 60 years. Most neonatal infections are caused by HSV-2, but increasing proportions are being caused by HSV-1.[19, 44]

Very impformative test. Only thing I would have liked to have seen would have been a zinc rich epoxy with two high build coats of acrylic.
Comment from Doug Wolthausen, (6/9/2014, 6:22 PM)
Another system to test is an Organic Zinc and Polysiloxane
Comment from Tom Schwerdt, (6/10/2014, 10:11 AM)
Doug - there are dozens of potential system types, each generally available from many different manufacturers.
Comment from Mark Puckett, (6/10/2014, 3:24 PM)
why didnt they report the coating manufacturers and products??
Comment from Pamela Simmons, (6/12/2014, 4:40 PM)
Mark, we forwarded your question to the author. His response: "When we advertise we place a generic description of the paint system required and do not indicate any system by name. For your information we may provide a copy of the generic specification that we are using on all jobs."
Comment from Brian D. Madsen, (6/16/2014, 4:36 AM)
Is the right term "cohesion failure", when the failure is between two coats ? Shouldn't it be "adhesion failure" ? ( system K).
Comment from David King, (6/16/2014, 10:24 PM)
I note both systems show peeling and would ask what the RH was during and for what period after application.
What percentage of the visible rust staining with the elastomeric, was rust bleed?
Comment from Tom Schwerdt, (6/17/2014, 8:21 AM)
Cohesion failure: When a coating film splits internally within the film (layer). Adhesion failure: When a coating film debonds from a substrate (which can be a lower layer of paint.)
Comment from Pamela Simmons, (6/17/2014, 10:20 AM)
The author was contacted for clarification. His response: "Coating System K showed areas of rust, peeling, adhesion and cohesion failure between the primer and finish coat, and finish coat itself on approximately 10 percent of the total surface area."
The online version of this article will be corrected accordingly.

It would be interesting to show test results from a system of 10.0 - 12.0 mils DFT Epoxy Mastic plus 2.0 - 4.0 mils DFT Polyurethane.
Comment from Nathan Spencer, (6/18/2014, 7:47 PM)
That is really poor performance. I suspect there are some prep/application issues. I have seen better performance out of one coat aspartic polyurea, or even aromatic polyurea for that matter.
Comment from Eric Kline, (6/30/2014, 8:46 AM)
Nice work!
The issue of advances in the possible uses of two and perhaps even one coat systems can still use further research. As was said by Edison, "...
Comment from Eric Kline, (6/30/2014, 8:51 AM)
Actually, it was said by Michael Faraday, ..."but still try, for who knows what is possible?"
Comment from Will Fultz, (7/17/2014, 9:36 AM)
I would be curious to see how a system which is nothing more than one coat of an IOZ primer at 3.0 to 4.0 mils would perform.

How To Analyze & Optimize Your Mobile Bid Modifiers In Enhanced Campaigns
May 28, 2013
Our entire agency has made the transition over to Enhanced Campaigns now, and I bet most of you out there have as well. If you haven't, you're probably wondering how to tackle your device bid modifiers. I came up with this quick how-to on how to go about doing this! Use this for your first time setting bid modifiers after switching to Enhanced Campaigns or for each time you analyze your data and see if you need to make adjustments.
- Download data for whichever campaigns or ad groups you're auditing from the campaign or ad group tab with segmentation for "device" selected. Make sure you've selected all columns important to your analysis, like search impression share, Lost IS to rank, Lost IS to budget, etc. Whatever is important to the analysis you're doing.
- If you have current bid modifications for device, download data for these same campaigns or ad groups, for the same time range, under "settings" and "device" as well to get the current bid modification. Currently, AdWords doesn't let you get conversion and impression share data in this section where your current bid modifications live. Sad Face.
Btw, you're going to see this nonsense in this report. 30000 = desktop, 30001 = mobile, and 30002 = tablet. I don't know why this is a thing, but it is. Just change the names to make sorting easier.
- Enable only mobile data with filters on both reports, sort by campaign so the metrics are listed in the same order, make a new column for "current" bid mod in the more robust metric report, and paste in the current bid mods.
Your "device" report will look like this:
Your robust metric, campaign or ad group level, report will look like this:
Sort both by campaign so they're listed in the same order. Copy and paste current bid mod.
- Your organization of this data for analysis depends on what tickles your fancy. You could just sort by campaign, and your devices will all be there right by the campaign. You could freeze the device and campaign columns to help you sort through the metrics. You could color code by device by sorting by device, choosing three colors. You could just build a pivot table so it makes the Campaign and device all pretty and organized with your metrics. You could delete all the devices except mobile if you don't need to see them to compare performance. Whaaatever. I like color coding, and mine looks like this:
You can see I used color coding for performance, too. This just helps me see "it's this device and it's got this performance". You might find something less color coded easier to analyze. It really depends how your brain functions.
- Go through and look at performance of your KPIs. Note performance. I use color-coding, but you could also just make a new column to indicate performance in by each metric. Again, however your boat is floated.
- Compare KPI performance to metrics that indicate bid influence: impression share, Lost IS to rank, avg. position. Then, note, based on this, what action should be taken. For instance, a campaign way over CPA limit for mobile should have its bid modification brought down. You can indicate by how much you'd like to test in a new "ACTION" column, similar to when you do bid changes.
- Once you've done this analysis once, you'll do all the same steps the next time except that you'll want to use the report you used last time to compare and use a similar date range. So, if you used the first 15 days of May for the first one, use 15 days for your next report unless you're only looking at CPA and not click, impression, or conversion volume, as metrics that get averages should still be a good measurement over a longer time frame. You'll also see the history of bid modifications this way. I would set it up with a date range column added in and then a concatenate of the date range and campaign/ ad group, perhaps highlighting the date range you're currently looking to analyze. You'll see how your bid modification from your previous analysis affected your new data's performance, and where you can improve performance by testing a new bid modification.
- Rinse and repeat each time you need to analyze your data!
