Between fashion magazines, beauty blogs, and YouTube tutorials galore, there's more beauty advice available at your fingertips than ever before. Unfortunately, while well meaning, a lot of it is inaccurate. Most of us have seen tips like dry skin can be fixed by drinking more water or that a tingling sensation means a product is working, but surprise—those aren't true. Read on to learn the truth behind these top beauty myths and learn what really works!
Fact: Many products on the market claim to be designed for a specific age group (especially for "mature" skin, which the industry refers to as anyone 50+), but age is NOT a skin type.
Not everyone in the same age group has the same skin type, which is why choosing products based on your age isn't a wise way to shop. Turning 50 does not mean you should automatically assume your skin is drying up and therefore, in need of richly emollient products for "mature" skin—that's simply not true for everyone. For example, if your skin is still oily, using emollient products will only make matters worse. Instead, the skincare products you buy should be dictated by YOUR skin type and skin concerns.
Read More »
A classic example of this is the fact that for some of us, turning 50 doesn't mean the battle with breakouts is over. People of any age can struggle with acne and blackheads. There's no shame in using anti-acne products whether you're 13 or 63—the ultimate goal is to have clear skin. You can fight breakouts with products like our Clear anti-acne treatments, no matter what your age—and you can still use anti-aging products, too!
Fact: There are no accepted testing methods, ingredient restrictions, regulations, guidelines, rules, or procedures of any kind for determining whether a product qualifies as being hypoallergenic. [1,2]
The term "hypoallergenic" is meant to imply that a product is unlikely or less likely to cause allergic reactions and, therefore, is better for allergy-prone or sensitive skin types. The problem? Beyond the fact that "hypoallergenic" is an unregulated term, we've seen hundreds of products labeled "hypoallergenic" or "good" for sensitive skin that contain seriously problematic ingredients (like fragrances, whether natural or synthetic) capable of triggering allergic breakouts or sensitive skin reactions. And many of us have used products labeled hypoallergenic that have caused a reaction of some sort.
If sensitive or allergy-prone skin is one of your concerns, then the #1 thing to look for is products that are free of irritants. The major irritants that show up in an astounding number of products, especially in products labeled organic or natural, are fragrance (both synthetic and natural fragrance are equally bad for all skin types), high amounts of alcohol (isopropyl, SD, or denatured alcohol), and harsh cleansing agents. [3,4] ALL of these ingredients can (and often do) appear in products labeled hypoallergenic.
Fact: First, the term "age spot" isn't quite accurate. Brown, freckle-like skin discolorations are not a result of age; they are the result unprotected sun exposure, including past suntans.
Sun spots, dark spots, brown spots—whatever you want to call them—can show up at any age, from the freckles sprinkled across a child's nose to smooth, flat brown discolorations you may see as early as your mid-20s, depending on how much sun exposure you've had. At any age, treating sun-induced brown discolorations takes proven ingredients (such as hydroquinone, niacinamide, vitamin C, and select plant extracts) plus daily broad-spectrum sun protection to make a noticeable, lasting difference. [5,6]
Other promising skin-lightening ingredients include licorice extract (specifically glabridin), azelaic acid, arbutin, flavonoids, hesperidin, and polyphenols. Get more info about how to use skin-lighteners + products recommendations via this article.
Fact: If only that were true! Adults in their 20s, 30s, 40s, and even 50s can have acne just like teenagers, and the treatment principles remain the same.
Having clear skin as a teenager isn't a guarantee that you won't get acne later in life, for women that could mean breakouts during menopause or pregnancy. You can blame this often-maddening inconsistency on hormones! What is true is that men typically outgrow acne, because after puberty male hormone levels become more balanced, while women's hormone levels fluctuate throughout their lifetime. That's why many women experience breakouts around their menstrual cycle and, for some, during or after menopause.
Acne is tricky enough on its own, but it can be made even worse by the abundance of misguided "treatment" advice blasted on the web and in magazines. See our article on top acne myths busted to make sure you don't fell prey to these mistakes!
Fact: Not if you're taking it off correctly and consistently—there's no research indicating that makeup or skincare products cause acne, and there is no consensus on which ingredients or mix of products are problematic.
Foundations are designed to stay on the top of skin; they don't absorb into the pore and cause problems like thick, emollient moisturizers can. But what can cause acne is not getting all of your makeup off at night. Rather than blame your breakouts on the makeup you're wearing, blame it on being a bit too tired at night to follow your skincare routine. For more on this subject see our article on Makeup for Acne-Prone Skin.
Fact: The absolute truth is that there are good and bad products in all price categories. It's all about the formulation, not the price.
You would be shocked at how many expensive products are little more than water and wax—and how many inexpensive products are brilliantly formulated. Spending less doesn't hurt your skin, and spending more doesn't necessarily help it. Again, it's all about the formulation, not the price.
Fact: There's no factual basis or scientific legitimacy proving natural or "organic" ingredients are better for skin. In fact, some "natural" ingredients actually do more harm than good.
Not only is the definition of "natural" hazy, but the term is loosely regulated, so any cosmetics company can use it to mean whatever they want it to mean. For example, many antioxidants are naturally derived, but by the time they are extracted, purified and processed, they are far from their natural beginnings. Additionally, just because an ingredient grows out of the ground or is found in nature doesn't make it automatically good for skin. The reverse is also true, just because a cosmetic ingredient is synthetic doesn't make it bad.
Ideally, the skincare products you choose should contain a mix of beneficial naturally-derived and synthetic ingredients. When properly formulated, these ingredients work in harmony to give your skin the best that natural and synthetic have to offer, and you'll see the difference. Nevertheless, if natural is the way you want to go, just make sure the formulas you choose omit irritants, such as essential oils, and are stably packaged to keep the superstar ingredients stable.
Fact: This sensation is your skin telling you it is being irritated, not helped.
Ingredients that cause a cool or tingling sensation, such as menthol, peppermint, camphor, and mint are counter-irritants. Counter-irritants are used to induce local inflammation in an effort to reduce inflammation in deeper or adjacent tissues. In other words, they substitute one kind of inflammation for another, which is never good for skin.
Irritation or inflammation, no matter what causes it or how it happens, impairs the skin's immune and healing response. And although your skin may not show it or react in an irritated fashion, if you apply irritants to your skin the damage is still taking place. Scary fact: This often-unseen damage is ongoing, so it adds up over time. [7]
Additionally, irritating skin triggers stress-sensing nerve endings at the base of the pore, which in turn stimulate more oil production. [8] Not good news for anyone with oily/acne-prone skin—yet many products geared for those skin types produce this sensation. Don't fall for it!
Fact: Blackheads may make skin look dirty, but they are unrelated to dirt or to how often you wash your face.
Blackheads develop when a clog forms within the pore and prevents oil and cellular debris from exiting the pore normally. As this clog nears the surface of the skin, the mixture of oil and cellular debris oxidizes and turns, you guessed it, black. Despite product claims that sound tempting, you cannot scrub away blackheads, at least not completely. Using a topical scrub removes the top portion of the blackhead, but does nothing to address the underlying cause, so they're back again before too long.
Think of it like the difference between mowing over a weed instead of pulling it out of the soil, roots and all. [9,10]
Instead of a scrub, try using a well-formulated BHA (salicylic acid) product. Salicylic acid exfoliates inside the pore lining, dissolving oil and dead skin cells that lead to constant blackheads and breakouts. Paula's Choice offers a broad selection of BHA products, which you can find here.
Fact: Ironically, dry skin is not as simple as just a lack of moisture. And, surprisingly, drinking more water won't make dry skin look or feel better.
The studies that have compared the water content of dry skin to that of normal or oily skin show that there doesn't appear to be a statistically significant difference. And adding more moisture to the skin is not necessarily a good thing. If anything, too much moisture, like soaking in a bathtub, is bad for skin because it disrupts the skin's outer barrier (the intracellular matrix) by breaking down the substances that keep skin cells functioning normally and in good shape. So how does dry skin happen?
When dry skin occurs, the intracellular matrix (the substances between skin cells that keep them intact, smooth, and healthy) has become depleted or damaged, bringing about a rough, uneven, and flaky texture that allows water to be lost. But adding water won't keep that moisture in skin unless the outer barrier is maintained or repaired. To prevent dry skin, the primary goal is to avoid and reduce anything that damages the outer barrier, including sun damage, products that contain irritating ingredients, alcohol, drying cleansers, and smoking. All of the research about dry skin is related to the ingredients and treatments that reinforce the substances in skin that keep it functioning normally. [11,12]
As for drinking lots of water each day, if all it took to get rid of dry skin was to drink more water, then no one would have dry skin and moisturizers would stop being sold. Keeping your liquid intake up is fine, but if you take in more water than your body needs, all you will be doing is going to the bathroom more often! The causes of and treatments for dry skin are far more complicated than water consumption.
Fact: Skin doesn't adapt to skincare products any more than your body adapts to a healthy diet.
Spinach and grapes are healthy for you today, and they'll continue to be healthy for you six months from now, even if you eat them every day. The same is true for your skin: As long as you are applying what is healthy for skin (and avoiding negative external sources such as unprotected sun exposure) it remains healthy.
You may see skin stop improving as much as it initially did. However, it stands to reason that if you were using products with irritating or drying ingredients and then switch to well-formulated products, your initial improvement is going to be much more dramatic than what you'll see months down the road, when skin is maintaining its new-found healthy, younger appearance.
Fact: There is no research showing that skincare products can work even remotely like Botox or dermal fillers.
When administered by professionals, Botox and dermal injections almost immediately make wrinkles and folds in the treated area disappear. Believing that skincare products can do the same, over any length of time, is a complete waste of money. If skincare products did work like Botox or dermal fillers, they would be exceedingly dangerous for consumers to use. Just think, if you slathered on a product that worked like Botox to "relax" or paralyze muscles, it could lead to drooping and sagging. And how would you be able to control the application?
Interestingly, there are two companies (Revance Therapeutics and Allergan) that are in the process of developing a topical version of Botox. Both are still in the testing phase, with FDA approval still years out. Once approved, the treatment will only be available at a qualified practitioner's office and will require administration by a doctor who is experienced with Botox and well-versed in how it affects muscles.
Although initial testing has shown impressive results, many dermatologists remain skeptical that the topical version of Botox will offer as dramatic of results as the injectable form. Nonetheless, for those who do not want to go under the needle, it's a potential alternative. And just to reiterate, this is not a skincare treatment that you'll be able buy at a store—it will require a trained professional's calibrated application.
Fact: Any product loaded with antioxidants, emollients, skin-repairing and anti-inflammatory ingredients can work wonders when used around the eye area. Those ingredients don't have to come from a product labeled as an eye cream or gel or serum or balm—they can come from any well-formulated moisturizer or serum.
However, if you are using a lightweight lotion or gel moisturizer, even if it is a wonderful formula, it may not be rich enough for the eye-area skin, which for many is drier than skin on the rest of the face. That's when you may want to consider an eye cream.
What about eye creams for improving dark circles and puffiness? Some can help, but, sadly, none can eliminate either concern, especially age-related puffiness (often referred to as "undereye bags"), which require cosmetic surgery.
Fact: The collagen and/or elastin in skincare products cannot fuse with the collagen and elastin in your skin to help rebuild or reinforce those structures.
The molecular sizes of both collagen and elastin are too large (WAY too large!) to penetrate the skin's surface. [13] Some products claim that the collagen or elastin they include has been "bioengineered" so it's small enough to be absorbed into the skin. As helpful as that sounds, it's completely useless. No matter how small these ingredients are engineered to become, they still will not fuse with the collagen and elastin in your skin. Claims to the contrary are not supported by independent, peer-reviewed research.
Even if there were some remote possibility that the collagen and elastin in skincare products could reinforce those elements in your skin, how would it know which collagen and elastin to attach to in your skin, and which to leave alone so the wrong parts of your face don't start puffing out or becoming lumpy? Fortunately, that's a scenario we don't have to worry about, because it simply doesn't work that way.
Fact: This recurring misinformation about mineral oil and petrolatum is maddening because it just isn't accurate.
Although mineral oil does originate from crude oil, this oil is as natural as any other earth-derived substance. Moreover, lots of ingredients are derived from awful-sounding sources, but are nevertheless benign and totally safe. Salt is a perfect example. Common table salt is sodium chloride, composed of sodium and chloride, but salt doesn't have the caustic properties of chlorine (which chloride is derived from) or the unstable explosiveness of pure sodium. Mineral oil is actually a great ingredient for dry skin! [14].
Cosmetics-grade mineral oil and petrolatum are considered the safest, most non-irritating moisturizing ingredients ever found. Yes, they can reduce the amount of air that comes in contact with skin, and reduce its impact on skin, but that's what a good antioxidant is supposed to do; they don't suffocate skin! There are several studies showing that mineral oil can help heal and moisturize skin quite effectively. [14,15]
The confusion around mineral oil is also caused by some cosmetics companies and people who use the information about non-purified mineral oil as a scare tactic. The mineral oil used in skincare products is certified as either USP (United States Pharmacopeia) or BP (British Pharmacopeia), and it's completely safe, soothing, and healthy for skin. It does not contain impurities that harm skin in any way. Those with oily or breakout-prone skin may not find the texture of mineral oil favorable but it's not known to clog pores because it remains on the surface of skin, protecting it from dryness. [14,15]

I've travelled to Cozumel many times but this time rates have skyrocketed. Either book a tour with the ship or rent a car but be aware that entrance fees for their best beaches can run from $20-30 per person in U.S. Dollars. A cab to take you to the north part of the island will cost approx. $120.00. Not much to do but shop within walking distance. Definitely planning a spa day on the ship and skipping this port next year!
We took a cab to the club beach and it was amazing. Entrance to the beach with free wi-FI was $2.00 for adults and children under 12 free. The cab was round trip $24.00 as 5 and under ride free. The sand was like sugar and chair and umbrella rentals were $14.00 per set. Excellent port.
We took a local taxi to Doctors Beach and it was fabulous. The sand is smooth and the waters are so clear you don't need a mask. The taxi fair and beach entrance for a family of four was $56.00.

I have a question.
Can I setup two languages weblogs such as Japanese and English using single database name?
Serendipity has done it, but I don't know how - sorry !
Yes. WP is in unicode (utf-8) out of the box, which helps a lot. My blog (click on my name on the right) is bilingual French/English. I've only recently added some language switching features using the language picker plugin, but don't even use all of its features. I've got bilingual posts (not all, it would just take too long) but don't switch the menu text depending on the language yet. Steph at Climb to the Stars has also done some rather technical work (with javascript etc.) that helps her blog in two languages.
hey, that language picker plugin may be the exact thingie I always wanted :D
thanks for pointing it!
Does anyone know where a plugin is available 'now' that will help me deliver a blog for a Japanese NPO in english and japanese? I've tried all mentioned on this site and I only get server errors and pages not found...
Yes I search also! ......
I don't know about Japanese, but on my blog, I've set up a bunch of links in my sidebar that link to translated versions of my site. While it's not perfect, I hear (from others, and the French one I read myself) that it's easy to get the gist of what is being said.
The link ( http://avinash.apeshell.net ) is incorrect.
No, it works :)
But @ aetherFox - making google to translate your post or having a multilingual blog (=writing in more languages) isn't the same :)
I know it isn't, but it was an alternative, and very very easy option.

if everything happens that can't be done
by E.E. Cummings
if everything happens that can't be done Versions of Reality Quotes
How we cite our quotes: (Line)
Quote #4
so here is away and so your is a my (23)
Now we make these impossibilities that are happening personal. Because our speaker is in love, he feels that his possessions are his love's possessions and, possibly, that his love is right there with him even when far away.
Quote #5
forever was never till now (27)
It seems like the force that makes the impossible happen in this poem is love. Maybe our speaker was a big skeptic, who thought he could never love someone forever. But then he met this person, and found that eternal love was possible because love made it possible.

Anthony Grifoni

The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
Andrew Mitsi
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
Simon Harriott
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

The flat is 200 meters from New Cross Gate Station, which gives you access to the Overground and the mainline railway (Note: the Overground is connected to the tube/underground - it just runs over ground - all tickets are valid). There are also numerous buses, which pass the flat and go straight to central London, including several night buses, so you can always get home no matter what time of night!
You can be in Trafalgar Square (by train) in just 15 minutes. The vibrant and eclectic area of Shoreditch is also just 15 minutes on the Overground. The location is ideal for any tourist or person working in central London!
So far all the guests in the flat have been very nice, interesting and very respectful of one another. I believe that they have all enjoyed their stay. The apartment is maintained daily to a high standard.
In the local area you will find everything you need for a great stay; there are 24 hour food shops, cafes, restaurants, a big supermarket (Sainsbury's) and bars all within walking distance to the flat. The flat is very close to Goldsmith University campus, so could be an ideal base if you are visiting the university for a conference.
The apartment is really convenient if you are visiting the Olympic games this summer. It is just 20 minutes by bus to Greenwich were a number of events are taking place, and just 20 minutes to the stadium at Stratford, via the Overground and Jubilee Line.
In general this is a great place to live. To keep it as such all guest need to follow the following rules for their own comfort:
Guest may use the kitchen on the following conditions:
They wash up all dishes, cutlery, pots and pans
They clean the cooker, hob, all work surfaces and table
They sweep the floor or any crumbs.
They return all utensils to their original place.
They put all rubbish in the bins at the entrance to the building.

Horrible. Later lost in London and escape the apartment. We had to find alternative accommodation for the delayed response as Sydney. If not for a tenant who happened to be in the apartment, we could not enter. Sidney erroneous instructions. The incomplete set of keys from the apartment. Without sheets without notice. Clogged sink.
Horrible. Tarde perdida en Londres y huída del apartamento. Tuvimos que buscar otro alojamiento por la respuesta tan tardía de Sidney. Si no es por un inquilino que casualmente se encontraba en el apartamento, no hubiéramos podido entrar. Las instrucciones de Sidney erróneas. El juego de llaves del apartamento incompleto. Sin sábanas sin previo aviso. El fregadero obturado.
The apartment is exactly like the presentation! Very happy to have quickly found favor with the indications of Sidney! It is a host available to answer your questions if you need help. Moreover, what a surprise to find that a bus right outside the door takes us to London Bridge! :)
Small bathroom but it's actually just a detail!

L'appartement est exactement comme la présentation! Très heureuse de l'avoir facilement et rapidement trouvé grâce aux indications de Sidney! C'est une hôte disponible pour répondre à vos questions si vous avez besoin d'aide. De plus, quelle surprise de constater qu'un bus juste devant la porte nous emmène à London Bridge! :)
Petite salle de bain effectivement mais ce n'est qu'un détail!

I had a nice stay in London with my kids. Sidney was very kind and alway available for questions (regarding the appartment, public transportation, the city of London, etc). There is a bus station directly in front of the house. The bus bring you directly to the city centre.
Sidney is very nice and attentive, the place is perfectly located and affordable.
I'll definitely come again.
Just one thing : the room miss a table lamp to make it cozy at night, the bed with the head so close to the heater is not a good idea. But hey it's constructive feedback because everything was nice even the most tiny shower I've ever seen ;)
Accommodation is satisfactory.
There is just one small problem.
The keys are hard to recover.
we believe we should review the key procurement method.
Otherwise all in all, the apartment is clean and well located for the center of London.
L'hébergement est satisfaisant.
Il y a juste un petit hic.
Les clés sont dur à récupérer.
nous pensons qu'il faut revoir la méthode de passation des clés.
Sinon dans l'ensemble, l'appartement est propre et bien situé par rapport au centre de Londres.
I can only recommend all the accommodation if you do not go on vacation to stay in his room. The rooms are clean and the possibility to use the kitchen very important (England is really expensive). I with my mistress thought about to fly back next year.
Yours sincerely
Ich kann allen nur die Unterkunft empfehlen wenn man nicht in Urlaub fährt um in seinem Zimmer zu wohnen . Die Räumlichkeiten sind sauber und die Möglichkeit die Küche zu nutzen ist sehr sehr wichtig ( England ist richtig teuer) . Ich hab mit meinem Frauchen schon überlegt nächstes Jahr wieder zu fliegen .
Mit freundlichen Grüßen
Just a horrible dump, I do not recommend.
Ihan kamala läävä, en suosittele.
Everything as expected, but there was only one bathroom for the whole house we had no problem. Everything clean and ordenado.No is next to London Bridge as the description says but does not take anything to get downtown
The worst was that Sidney gave information to get the keys and other barely 9h before catching the plane and even sent him messages Wimdu therefore as their number did not answer me, which made we got to look for cheap hostels case. Finally he gave the instructions and everything was as expected.
Todo como lo esperaba, aunque había un solo baño para toda la casa no hemos tenido problema. Todo limpio y ordenado.No está al lado de London Bridge como dice la descripción pero no se tarda nada en llegar al centro
Lo peor ha sido que Sidney nos dio la información para conseguir las llaves y demás a penas 9h antes de coger el avión y aunque le mandaba mensajes tanto por Wimdu como a su numero no me contestaba, lo cual hizo que llegáramos a mirar hostales baratos por si acaso. Finalmente nos dio las instrucciones y todo fue como esperaba.
Sidney allowed me to book at really short notice. He really saved my life! I was able to call him straight away and get into the property. The process was really organised. The apartment is well placed and well connected. For sure I'll use again!
This was our very first experience with wimdu and I can say that it was really positive. Sidney is very friendly, helpful and welcoming to his lovely apartment. It is exactly as in the pictures and description and close enough to the tube station. It's a quiet place to relax after a long day of sightseeing. The view of Canary Wharf from the lounge is beautiful. I would recommend Sidney and his apartment to anyone.

By Story and photos by Pfc. Jessica LuhrsJuly 22, 2010
Forward Operating Base Warrior, Kirkuk, Iraq - "Battle Boar" Soldiers of 1st Battalion, 30th Infantry, 2nd Brigade Combat Team, 3rd Infantry Division out of Fort Stewart, Ga. enjoyed a lunch with Task Force Marne and 3rd ID Command Sergeant Major, Command Sgt. Maj. Jesse Andrews, during his visit to Forward Operating Base Warrior, in Kirkuk, Iraq, July 17.
Command Sergeant Major Andrews made this visit to his "Battle Boar" Soldiers to speak to them about Operation New Dawn and to thank them for a job well done.
The lunch began with Command Sgt. Maj. Andrews trading his seat at the head of the table for one in the middle of a group of Soldiers. So throughout the lunch he could talk to the Soldiers about their Families and life on FOB Warrior.
After lunch he briefed them on upcoming changes in operations.
The "Battle Boar" mission will begin to change slightly as U.S. forces in Iraq transfers to Operation New Dawn, according to the senior-enlisted leader.
"We will focus more on advising, training and assisting our Iraqi security force partners," said Command Sgt. Maj. Andrews to the Soldiers.
He also warned that even though the combat mission is ending they need to watch out for each other and not let unnecessary mistakes claim their lives.
"You've done a great job for nine months these next 90 days will be the most difficult because you will be fighting complacency," he said. "You need to keep in mind there are still bad guys out there, and they are looking for one chance to create havoc."
After speaking to the Soldiers about their mission in Iraq he explained to them the importance of taking care of themselves also.
"I have been a noncommissioned officer since 1983 and in the Army for almost 30 years and have mentored thousands of Soldiers it is something I have gotten good at," he said.
"All of the Soldiers I have mentored know how passionate I am about helping out the Soldiers before I help myself," he explained, "which is why I ensure all of my Soldiers better themselves at every opportunity. You can do anything read a book, get in shape or go to school."
Before leaving, Command Sgt. Maj. Andrews made sure he recognized four outstanding "Battle Boar" Soldiers and thanked the others for a job well done.
"I am very proud of what you guys are doing. Everyone knows what a great job you are doing in Kirkuk, and we thank you."

Six Steps to Implementing an Evidence-Based Program
This post originally appeared at Child Trends blog.
Governments, schools, foundations, and nonprofit organizations fund programs to improve outcomes for children and youth, so it is important that these programs actually achieve their desired outcomes. Just as in medicine, it is imperative to invest in evidence-based programs and practices. Whether it is an after-school program for youth, a teen pregnancy prevention program, or a mentoring program, success can depend on how well the program is implemented.

There comes a time in everyone's life when we feel the need to break free. For some this means starting their own business, writing a book or putting together the rock band they were dreaming about in high school. For others, the need of freedom is brought to life when their inner nomadic spirit takes over.
Whether they're bored working in a weary system, or want to break the routine or maybe their soul will never find peace and happiness unless is able to unveil the world's wanders, these are the people for whom the answers lie in the journey.
Bradut 'Brad' Florescu, a Romanian travel journalist, who has worked in advertising and media for over 13 years, decided to leave everything behind and follow his passions somewhere else in the world. There's probably nothing new to this scenario, but unlike other people, Brad has actually succeeded in keeping this dream alive for almost 3 years now. He moved to Thailand and dedicated his life to travelling blossomed into writing and photography.
These 3 years scattered with stories, lessons and experiences have turned Brad into a traveller who can now understand better the world and himself.
He took a tour of Thailand on a sidecar motorcycle to find secluded beaches and meet the locals; he travelled to Sumatra, Indonesia, to taste the most expensive type of coffee in the world; he went to see the shocking, yet miraculous effects of the tsunami that hit Indonesia in 2004; he experienced a spectacular around the world trip with the Romanians: a one of its kind project in Romania which covered 3 continents, 10 cities and 35.000 km in 21 days.
And these are just some of the stories Brad has shared with other people on his personal blog and website.
What does a typical day in your life – when you're in Thailand – look like?
There are two types of typical days: when I'm home and when I'm not.
In the first case, my days start around 8.30 with a cup of Thai Arabica coffee and a quick review of the overnight events and articles of note from around the world. Then I move on to writing, editing photos, publishing on the website and social media. Afternoons are dedicated to development: research for the future projects, reading, learning new languages, improving my guitar skills. I spend most evenings with my international group of friends in Chiang Mai, discussing news, sharing travel experiences and making music.
The days on the road start before sunrise, continue for 12 hours of field work followed by 3-4 hours of photo editing, preliminary writing, fine tuning the next day's plan. I usually go to sleep around midnight.
You left for Thailand with some of your friends. Was it easier for you to make this step knowing that you wouldn't have been totally alone on another continent, at 'the end of the world'(like your mum says:)?
I'm not the gregarious type. I treasure solitude. However, in this case, being with friends added a few precious dimensions to the whole experiment. It gave me a lot of clues about the dynamics of friendship in a new environment with different rules and challenges. It was much more intellectual fun being with Ioana, Diana, Cristi and Andrei. They helped me learn a lot more about myself and about what I was meant to do with my life.
Meanwhile, 3 years later, the stories have changed. Some stayed, others left. But Elena, your better half, is still living with you in Thailand. How much does her presence influence you in continuing your journey in Asia?
Besides giving me love, care and emotional support, Elena has helped me a lot with my work. She's doing project management; she's in charge with sales, website development, finances and all those tasks that ask for a pragmatic, detail-oriented approach (fantastic counterpart to my stormy style). She's also a very talented photographer, a fantastic networker and a skilled cook. Not to mention how beautiful she is.
Elena's being here in Thailand makes it sometimes harder for me to travel, because I miss her as soon as I hit the road. So hear my words: being a travel writer is a tough job when an amazing Penelope is waiting at home.
"The culture of freedom"
Although you've started this journey as a "Crush Test Dummy " and experienced the benefits (or not) of a sabbatical year, your passion for travel, writing and photography turned into at least 2 great projects: tedoo.ro and tedoo.eu. What are you aiming to achieve through them?
Tedoo.ro is the rebranded and redesigned version of Amazingrace.ro, the travel blog I started in 2007. Besides the facelift, its very concept evolved a lot during the last 5 years and my being a nomad for quite a while now helped me better understand the world in general and the world of traveling in particular.
The core idea of Tedoo.ro is "the culture of freedom". I strongly believe that this freedom we're all craving for should come with an usage manual or it can be mishandled, broken, lost. Tedoo.ro is focused on providing Romanian readers with proper information about what freedom really is and how it should be pursued and used for the benefit of all.
Tedoo.eu is a photo blog I started soon after my arrival in Thailand. It features those photos which really express my view on the world. A bit weird, a bit lonely but definitely honest.
And how is Tedoo.ro different from the other travel websites in .ro?
First off as already stated, tedoo.ro is not about travelling for the sake of it. It's about freedom. It's about inner travels, about overcoming misconceptions, fears, ignorance and clichés, it's about finding the way, reading the world as an open book, pursuing one's passion and intuition. It's about a multidimensional way of travelling, where the physical movement from A to B is just a pretext for an inner journey.
Second, tedoo.ro has kind of a patriotic approach, as it tries to build up a Romanian travel culture, adapted to my country fellows' way of life, cultural perspective, interests and mental profile.
Third, since tedoo.ro was among the very first websites that promoted independent travelling and a nomadic way of life, most of the nowadays Romanian travel blogosphere is somehow trying to replicate the concept, at least partially. Unfortunately, as all copycats, they're also replicating the mistakes I made in the past.
Have you thought about having an English version to extend your audience?
There is a tiny English/Spanish section on Tedoo.ro (many thanks to Andreea Sminchise and Laura Saracin), but there's much more to come. "The Thailander" project, comprising my extensive travels around Northern and Southern Thailand, is currently under development. About half of the stories have already been translated and published on the draft version of the website. By the time the full version will hit the internet, it will probably be one of the world's most comprehensive online guides about Thailand.
Do you have any story about fans of your blog/website who travelled to Thailand and wanted to meet you as well?
Not one, but tens of them. I meet at least one of my readers every week, in Chiang Mai. There are many I cannot see because they travel to other destinations in Thailand. But they e-mail me and I feel good to know they found some useful information on Tedoo.ro.
Setting an example
You left the communication industry in Romania, but you couldn't 'close the door' for good not even at over 7,000 km away. How addictive is the new media system?
Communication is addictive regardless of the channel. Having a face-to-face conversation, singing around a beach fire or sharing photos on Facebook, these are all ways of reminding each other that being human is all about togetherness and playfulness.
If it wasn't for writing and photography, what else could you have done to make a living in Thailand?
I don't usually answer "IF" questions, but in this case I'll make an exception. I'd probably make music.
We think that the path you chose has encouraged other people to fulfill their dreams that until then didn't seem reachable. How do you feel about it?
Guilty as charged.
Is Brad Florescu a trendsetter or a brand (that people identify with and trust)?
I couldn't say that from where I'm standing.
"Find your way"
What are the three main things that would define, in your view, the people of Thailand?
The Buddha, The King and The Family.
During these 3 years spent in Thailand, can you share with us a story that was a turning point in your life?
Every moment of freedom is a turning point in one's life. If you feel comfortable with your life, if you know what tomorrow is going to bring, then you've exchanged "a walk-on part in the war/for a lead role in a cage" (as Pink Floyd brilliantly put it some forty years ago).
Tell us about the man you used to be before moving to Thailand and the man you are now. Are there any major differences?
I was selfish, superficial, impatient and unwise. Now I'm slowly healing.
Why should one take a sabbatical year in Thailand?
One shouldn't. One should not turn one's life into a postcard. The whole thing about a sabbatical is to put one's self as far as possible from bias. So it depends on where the bias comes from and on the nature of this bias. One can spend a sabbatical anywhere, anyhow for any length of time. It's just a way. Find your own.

Man admits to Vermont Sex Offender Registry offenseJuly 13,2013BENNINGTON A local man faces up to five years in prison after pleading guilty Friday to failing to comply with the sex offender registry for more than five consecutive days between June 2012 and January 2013.
Douglas C. Kramer, 20, of Bennington, was arraigned in Bennington criminal court in January on two felony counts of failing to comply with the sex offender registry for longer than five days. The second charge was modified to note that Kramer had been convicted of failing to comply with the registry before in May 2012.
In an affidavit, Detective Anthony Silvestro of the Bennington Police Department said Kramer had been convicted of lewd and lascivious conduct in 2005. The conviction requires Kramer to be registered as a sex offender in Vermont.
According to Silvestro, Kramer was in violation of the registrys conditions at the time he began his investigation in January because he had not returned a letter confirming his address to the registrys office. The letter Kramer had not returned was sent to him at the end of August 2012.
Silvestro said when he spoke to Kramer in January, Kramer lied about where he was living. According to the affidavit, Silvestro learned that Kramer was staying in a School Street apartment, as he claimed, but in a different apartment than the one he reported to Silvestro.
When Kramer changed his plea Friday in Bennington criminal court, there was no sentencing agreement in place. He could be sentenced to up to five years in prison on the charge.
As part of the agreement, the state agreed to dismiss the second charge against Kramer.MORE IN This Just InBENNINGTON A Sandgate man with a previous conviction for a sex crime against a child in New...

(JTA) -- A Jewish group garnered 10,000 signatures on a petition asking Fox News Channel to fire political commentator Glenn Beck.
Jewish Funds for Justice attempted to deliver the petition on Jan. 13 to the Manhattan headquarters of News Corp., Fox's parent company, run by Rupert Murdoch. Security would not let JFSJ president Simon Greer into the building, and so he pledged to mail in the petition.
JFSJ has clashed with the talk show provocateur ever since Beck said the term "social justice" leads to Nazism last year. It launched the petition after Beck's sustained attack on liberal financier George Soros in November, in which Beck suggested without evidence that Soros, a Holocaust survivor, had collaborated with the Nazis.
Also on Jan. 13, Beck delivered another of his interpretations of history that suggest a shadowy attempt to control human thought.
JFSJ and Media Matters, a liberal watchdog, noted that eight of the nine villains in Beck's analysis, including Soros and Sigmund Freud, were Jewish.
"We are disturbed that by his increasingly focus on attacking Jews and find it hard to believe that it was only coincidence that eight of the nine individuals on his list alleging a shadowy alliance to control the Americans through propaganda were Jewish," JFSJ said in a statement.
A number of conservative Jewish groups have defended Beck, saying that there is no evidence that the attacks on Soros and others have anything to do with the targets' Jewishness and noting Beck's strong support for Israel.

According to a comment on a solution for this achievement on TrueAchievements you also have to type in the description when you create the challenge for this achievement. When I did this the achievement popped while I was on the your shape site.
Credit goes to Nyte Rayne 2

i created a challenge, stayed logged onto the website while i done and finished the challenge of burning 200 calories in a single session and the achievement did not pop !?!?!?

CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) -- Carolina Panthers quarterback Jake Delhomme has taken another step in his rehabilitation from elbow surgery.
Delhomme took snaps and participated in team drills on Wednesday, the opening day of the team's optional workouts.
Delhomme threw about 40 passes, up from the 34 he threw in individual drills during April's minicamp.
Delhomme said he was "mentally a little rusty," but said his arm felt fine. Delhomme had ligament-replacement surgery in his right elbow last fall after playing in only three games.
The Panthers expect Delhomme to be at full strength for the start of training camp in July.

Why is Marketing THE essential part of any business?
Every growing business uses marketing methods to get their message out to prospective clients. Without marketing, who would know about your brand, products or services? As much a marketing is a like a big box of promotional tools and strategies, it is also a mindset. To succeed, everyone involved in your business must buy into your philosophy. No matter what you make, sell or distribute – if you and your staff are not following the same mindset, you are only making it harder for yourself.
My name is Stephen Welby and I have been involved in marketing, in one form or another, for most of my working life. I specialise in working with small businesses, new start-ups, one man bands and owners who are looking to introduce simple, but effective changes to the way they present, promote and grow their company. Many of the marketing methods I offer may already be in use by you, but it is important that all company owners learn to keep up to date with new trends and techniques to keep their business alive.
As small business owners… and I am one too, we cannot afford to let opportunities to slip by. We must ensure that we are the first port of call for any potential clients in our fields. We must be the first company they find when they go searching. Through informed use of marketing methods and strategies, we can give ourselves the edge over our competition.
Over the years I have dealt with many small businesses who believed that affording a marketing budget was just something out of their reach. They needed the time and money to invest in machinery, tools and staff. Whilst these are all essential to running a business, they are not going to be needed if you have no clients… so make time for marketing. Become the known expert in your business field and use the tools, tips and strategies that marketing offers to make your small business a financial success !

Tuesday, August 13, 2013
AIKEN, S.C. -- In a 7-to-2 vote, the Aiken County School Board has approved the Tax Increment Financing (TIF) plan for Project Jackson, the $150 million public-private venture to bring the GreenJackets, a hotel, and other things to the North Augusta Riverfront.
Leading up to Tuesday night's vote, there have been numerous public input sessions for public comment, and there was time again Tuesday night for members of the public to comment.
While there were a few who showed up in opposition, the presumable majority stood in support of the project. Many wore buttons giving Project Jackson a thumbs up.
Turner Simkins, a Hammond's Ferry developer, spoke in support and quoted a personal letter from Charleston Mayor Joe Riley. It said this project was a once in a lifetime opportunity for a municipality.
"Water is magic," Simkins read.
Board member Wesley Hightower continued his staunch opposition to the project. He called into question the history of the project's developer.
However, County Attorney Bill Burkhalter explained to school board that the involvement is truly minimal. They are not funding the ball-park, just other parts of the development. Also, there isn't a new tax or a tax increase. The increase in property values will simply be diverted to pay for Project Jackson.
In return, the school board will reap increased property taxes once the project is complete.
"It's a win-win for us," said board member Keith Liner.
Board member Ray Fleming added that the process has been a thorough one. Fleming says they've allowed the public to speak numerous times before they voted Tuesday night.
"That's the way democracy is supposed to work," Fleming said.
Along with Hightower, board member Dwight Smith also voted to deny the TIF.
Next Tuesday, the TIF faces what will likely be a more difficult challenge. The Aiken County Council will have to okay the financing plan too.
