Ions in aqueous solution
Water is seldom pure. Because of the structure of the water molecule, substances can dissolve easily in it. This is very important because if water wasn't able to do this, life would not be possible on Earth. In rivers and the oceans for example, dissolved oxygen means that organisms (such as fish) are able to respire (breathe). For plants, dissolved nutrients are available in a form which they can absorb. In the human body, water is able to carry dissolved substances from one part of the body to another.
Dissociation in water
Water is a polar molecule. If we represent water using Lewis structures we will get the following:
You will notice that there are two electron pairs that do not take part in bonding. This side of the water molecule has a higher electron density than the other side where the hydrogen atoms are bonded. This side of the water molecule is more negative than the side where the hydrogen atoms are bonded. We say this side is the delta negative () side and the hydrogen side is the delta positive () side. This means that one part of the molecule has a slightly positive charge (positive pole) and the other part has a slightly negative charge (negative pole). We say such a molecule is a dipole. It has two poles. Figure 2 shows this.
Special properties of water
Dissociation of sodium chloride in water
It is the polar nature of water that allows ionic compounds to dissolve in it. In the case of sodium chloride () for example, the positive sodium ions () are attracted to the negative pole of the water molecule, while the negative chloride ions () are attracted to the positive pole of the water molecule. When sodium chloride is dissolved in water, the polar water molecules are able to work their way in between the individual ions in the lattice. The water molecules surround the negative chloride ions and positive sodium ions and pull them away into the solution. This process is called dissociation. Note that the positive side of the water molecule will be attracted to the negative chlorine ion and the negative side of the water molecule to the positive sodium ions. A simplified representation of this is shown in Figure 3. We say that dissolution of a substance has occurred when a substance dissociates or dissolves. Dissolving is a physical change that takes place. It can be reversed by removing (evaporating) the water.
- Definition 1: Dissociation
Dissociation is a general process in which ionic compounds separate into smaller ions, usually in a reversible manner.
- Definition 2: Dissolution
Dissolution or dissolving is the process where ionic crystals break up into ions in water.
- Definition 3: Hydration
Hydration is the process where ions become surrounded with water molecules.
The dissolution of sodium chloride can be represented by the following equation:
The dissolution of potassium sulphate into potassium and sulphate ions is shown below as another example:
Remember that molecular substances (e.g. covalent compounds) may also dissolve, but most will not form ions. One example is glucose.
There are exceptions to this and some molecular substances will form ions when they dissolve. Hydrogen chloride for example can ionise to form hydrogen and chloride ions.
You can try dissolving ionic compounds such as potassium permanganate, sodium hydroxide and potassium nitrate in water and observing what happens.
Exercise 1: Ions in solution
For each of the following, say whether the substance is ionic or molecular.
potassium nitrate ()
ethanol ()
sucrose (a type of sugar) ()
sodium bromide ()
a) Ionic
b) Molecular
c) Molecular
d) Ionic
Write a balanced equation to show how each of the following ionic compounds dissociate in water.
sodium sulphate ()
potassium bromide ()
potassium permanganate ()
sodium phosphate ()
Draw a diagram to show how dissolves in water.

I really like your Victor shot.
Did you get any of the Nimrod doing her run?
Nice shots.
Excellence is not a skill. It is an attitude.
The first quality needed is audacity
Is that the old Harvard Formation Team Beech 18?
Great pictures but the sun shone on the Victor twice!! It is of course in a different colour scheme to the Falkland, Operation Granby and later aircraft, but she still looks good in the sunshine. Two points of interest, Bob Tuxford was in the left hand seat with Mike Beer in the AEO position. Terry Stephenson the crew chief was on board, and I was in the RHS doing my QFI thing! As it was Black Buck One anniversary time, we marked the occasion as Bob T and Mike flew the last stage of the Vulcan AAR support for that operation. Regrettably, we had a problem getting the brake parachute repacked and so one was not fitted. This limited our maximum speed for the run. Better luck in August! Bob P
VX927: I didn't wait for the Nimrod, here she is earlier:
Hampden98: The camo Beech 18 was owned by Graham Warner and later Anthony Hutton and flew alongside the Harvard Display Team (also as N5063N). Her arrival was a sight to see:
Howard500: Here is the Beech Restorations Beech 18, G-BKRN / 43-35943, on the way to flight:
VictorAircraft:Your Victor attracted a lot of attention:
The Beech is G-BKGM and is owned by Andy Foan
Andy is a really decent bloke and agreed to bring the Beech for the day.
His Beech, our Beech (G-BKRN) and G-BKRL all flew for Capital Air Surveys in the 70's/80's
CAS went bust in about 83 and all 3 were impounded at Prestwick.
L & M were bought by Graham Warner RN was ferried to perth and then went to the Scottish Aircraft Collection TRust. They got rid and it ended up at Cranfield
we (Beech Restorations) bought it in 1996 and we have been restoring it since then.
nearly there now.
hope to get all 3 together again soon.
not seen those before
do you have any of DTN or KGL
I hope you don't mind me using your thread Dave, but here's a few pics for Philip of the Beech 18s on the evening they arrived at Prestwick in August 1981. I think he may have seen a couple of these before.
thank you
Does this mean you'll be repainting them bright red now?
Push enough pixels around and it'll look like an aeroplane profile.
here are a few i took

Kids' museum sued over debt on copy machines
Financial problems continue to nag Great Explorations Children's Museum. According to a lawsuit filed this month in Pinellas County, the museum owes $126,000 for copying equipment. The suit, filed by Lyon Financial Services, alleges the museum hasn't made a monthly payment on its lease for copying equipment since October. Scott Wagman, a museum board member, said Great Explorations has returned three copy machines to Lyon in the past two weeks. "It's insane that Great Explorations would have $120,000 in debt for three copiers," he said.
Corey Avenue sees rebirth of old bar
The Swigwam's coming back to life on Corey Avenue. Walk in and find rocks to hold down cash on the bar, dollar bills posted on the wall, and four bartenders who spent decades behind the former Travelodge on Gulf Boulevard, now Postcard Inn on the Beach. Rob Williams, 49, a fixture at the old Swigwam since the '80s, owns the new place at 336 Corey Ave. "We're just hoping to make a nice little neighborhood bar for people to feel comfortable," he said. It's open 10 a.m. to 2 a.m. most weekdays, and until 11 p.m. on Sundays. Call (727) 363-7944 or visit swigwam.webs.com.
Blood center's move is now complete
Florida Blood Services' donor center at Martin Luther King Jr. Street N near Gandy Boulevard just finished its first week at a new location. It has moved one block south, to 9900 Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. St. N. For more information, visit fbsblood.org or call (727) 568-5433, ext. 2112.

Is anyone hosting on Bravenet? (File permissions problems)
Hello, I am trying to host a WordPress site on Bravenet.com, but I'm running into all kinds of problems when I try and upload files, pertaining to permissions.
These are the kinds of errors I am getting:
"Unable to create directory /usr/local/apache2/misc/14/165/274/296/4/user/web/whateveryamericanshouldknow.com/wp-content/uploads/2006. Is /usr/local/apache2/misc/14/165/274/296/4/user/web/whateveryamericanshouldknow.com/wp-content/uploads writable? "
I have looked at the information on how to change permissions, and even asked Bravenet to modify them for me.
Am I correct in assuming that the folders needing extra permissions are the wp-content/uploads directories?
So, now I'm wondering if there are issues I don't yet understand about using Bravenet to host the project.
Any insight or ideas? Has anyone experienced something close to what I describe using them?
Many thanks in advance.

TEL AVIV (Aug. 23)
Workers of the battery division of the Histadrut-owned Tadiran Electric Equipment and Electronics Complex, locked out by its management last week because of the refusal of the staff to accept efficiency layoffs of workers, ran amok at a press conference called by the company Tuesday.
The communications division of the company called the press conference — held at Bet Sokolow, headquarters of the Israel Journalists Association — to explain the efficiency measures planned by the division to avoid a situation similar to that which has arisen in the battery plant.
Angry battery workers charged into the press conference and threw chairs and tables about, injuring two woman journalists.
A woman employee of Bet Sokolow was hit in the stomach and taken to the hospital for treatment.
A heavy police force rushed to the scene and arrested a number of rioters.

The Kingdom of Thailand lies in the heart of South East Asia. Theshape and geography are divided into four distinct natural regions: the mountains and forests of the North; the vast rice fields of the Central Plains; the semi-arid farm lands of the Northeast plateau; and the tropical islands and long coastline of the peninsula South.The land of smiles is jam-packed full of excitement -from Temples and Buddhist monks to oriental dances, bustling markets, unique fauna and flora, exotic food, exciting nightlife, serene hills, virgin rainforests and charming island resorts.
Bangkok also offers a treasure trove of cultural attractions and an opportunity to experience fascinating glimpse of Thailand's gentle culture amidst the bustle of a great and dynamic metropolis.710 Years old, Chiang Mai, lies to the north and is more laid-back than Bangkok but is still as captivating.The original city layout still exists as a neat square surrounded by a moat with vestiges of the fortified wall. Surrounded by lush mountainous terrain, the north is perfect for trekking and offers an insight into the local hill tribes. Of course, Thailand is blessed with some of the world's most-enviable islands and beaches with Phuket, Koh Samui and Koh Phi Phi ensuring your holiday in the south will be filled with water sports, hammocks and sunset strolls along the water's edge.
Some areas are busier whilst others offer a more serene experience - be sure to research your breakaway carefully.
It's affordable and easy to get around Thailand. Each of the hubs are serviced by scheduled air services and we are able to offer convenient and hassle free transfers from the airports to your hotel or resort.There are no shortages of taxis in the cities and Bangkok also offers the Skytrain as well as tuk-tuks and boats running up and down the Chao Phraya River. The island havens off the coast of Koh Samui and Phuket are accessible by ferries.
Thailand's tropical climate has three main seasons:
- Hot : March to June
- Rainy : July to October
- Cool : November to February
Average temperatures range from 20°C to 35°C, with
the weather being a little cooler in the north of the country.
The East and West coasts experience different monsoon seasons:
- The Gulf of Thailand (East coast) = November to March
- The Andaman Sea (West coast) = May to October
- The monsoon rains are generally short and heavy, clearing quickly and days of constant rain are rare.
The national language is Thai, although English is widely spoken in cities and larger towns.
Light, cool clothes are sensible.Shorts (except knee length walking shorts), sleeveless shirts, tank tops and other beach-style attire are considered inappropriate dress when not actually at the beach or in a resort area.
It is important to show respect for the Thai Royal Family. Revealing attire is not allowed in religious shrines. Do not climb over or sit on Buddha monuments. Do not touch or give anything directly to a Buddhist monk if you are a woman. Thais greet each other by pressing their palms together called 'wai'. It is rude to touch people on their head or point your feet at people or an object.
The electric current is 220 volts AC (50 cycles) and the majority of electrical outlets take a round, two-pronged slim plug.
Visitors do not require vaccinations unless coming from or passing through a designated contaminated area. Drink only bottled water and avoid ice unless you know is made from bottled or boiled water. Don't eat from the food vendors on the street, unless you are sure of their cleanliness and proper care must be taken against sunburn.
Visitors to Thailand require a valid passport (which must be valid for at least six months after one has RETURNED to South Africa and feature a minimum of four blank pages).South African passport holders do not require a visa for a maximum stay of 1 month;but it is advisableto check with the relevant Embassy before departure.
The currency is the Thai Baht which is better for bargaining and shopping in markets. US Dollars, Pounds and Euros are accepted at hotels.
A service charge is already included in all prices. Tips, in general, are not mandatory, and you should only give them if you are really content with the service offered. Waiters, bellboys, porters, restroom attendants and taxi drivers will happily accept loose change.
Thailand is 5 hours ahead of South Africa.
Thailand boast many festivals throughout the year, one of the most famous being the Songkran Festival in mid-Aprilwhich washes away all the bad spirits and celebrates the traditional Thai New Year. Basically, Songkran is all about getting wet so be prepared to be squirted with ice water!
Take your pick from our wide variety of Thailand packages.

Episode 5
A Continuity Announcer's booth can be a lonely place - especially on the late shift, when you've barely seen your wife and children for a week. Still, this Radio 4 Continuity Announcer is nothing, if not a consummate professional and he's not going to let his own insignificant little problems get in the way of your listening pleasure. Especially when there are so many exciting programmes coming up in the next week, which he's got to tell you about. At least some of them are exciting. Some of them aren't quite his cup of tea, if he's honest, but that's not really the point, is it? They may be right up your street. It's not really his place to express an opinion. Even if it is tempting. This may be a come-down from heady days spent announcing on the Today programme, but he's got a job to do. Though sometimes it is rather difficult to concentrate .....
Alistair McGowan stars in a new subversive sitcom about a Continuity Announcer brooding on the escalating disasters of his private and professional life; at the same time as attempting to give us a preview of the programmes on offer in the coming week on Radio 4. Or what might be Radio 4 in a parallel universe. Trails for 'The Ethical Enigma', 'Britain's Favourite Sound' and 'The History of Britain One Year at a Time' are just some of the strange delights on offer in the world of this 'radio professional', who harbours a slightly inappropriate relationship with his audience.
Written by Hugh Rycroft a stalwart of 'The News Quiz' and co-creator of 'Parliamentary Questions' and 'Life, Death and Sex with Mike and Sue', the series also features the voices of Lewis Macleod, Sally Grace, Charlotte Page and David Holt.
Produced by David Spicer and Frank Stirling.
A Unique Production for BBC Radio 4.

First, we stalked Harry, now we recount some of Prince William and Duchess of Cambridge Kate Middleton's stays in the South Pacific. Plus, some recommendations on where the couple could extend their trip for more sunbathing.
Singapore: The two royals stopped in Singapore first, staying at the iconic Raffles Hotel Singapore. We don't think Will and Kate had time to take advantage of Raffles Culinary Academy, but hopefully they got to enjoy a "Singapore Sling" at the Long Bar (the cocktail was invented there). Check out Huffington Post for pictures of their arrival.
Malaysia: Kuala Lumpur was next on the itinerary, where they were guests of Malaysia's King. Those of us who don't secure an invite to the National Palace, can still live like a king, or prince, by spending a few nights at The Ritz-Carlton, Kuala Lumpur. Every room features full butler service—how's that for the royal treatment!
The pair took a quick trip to Sabah, a Malaysian state on the island of Borneo. There, they visited a remote jungle to catch a glimpse of endangered orangutans firsthand and learn about conservation efforts in the area. The
Gayana Eco Resort would have been the perfect place to spend the night. The resort, part of the Eco Collection, works diligently to restore the region's coral reefs. A Kiwi stay here also includes a complimentary 30-minute reflexology or head/shoulder massage for two, which I'm sure they would've enjoyed after a day of jungle-trekking.
On route to Solomon Islands: Being a Royal Air Force Captain, Will might have liked to have their private plane to touchdown in Papua New Guinea at the Airways Hotel. It isn't your average airport hotel; there's an infinity pool, tennis court and sprawling health club with squash courts and more. Propped up outside the award-winning hotel is an actual airplane.
After Tuvalu: If there's anywhere Kate shouldn't get flack for taking off her swimsuit to sunbathe, it's Fiji's Turtle Island. After all, it's the setting for the Blue Lagoon, where a young Brook Shields famously went topless with just some of her long hair to keep her covered (there's a tip, Kate). The resort only takes 14 couples at a time, and guests get private beaches. Out in the vastness of the Pacific Ocean, it's a little trickier for paparazzi to get at and the jungle villas are well-concealed.

Man airlifted from Falmouth Bay tanker with steam burns
A man has been airlifted from a tanker with up to 30% steam burns to his face, arms and legs.
The man, who was a Russian crew member onboard the vessel in Falmouth Bay, was taken to Plymouth's Derriford Hospital by helicopter from RNAS Culdrose.
Falmouth Coastguards were alerted at about 22:20 BST and said it was unclear how the man sustained the injuries.
The tanker remains anchored in Falmouth Bay and the crew member's condition is unknown.

Thu 25 Oct 2012 in 43,-88:
Weston Hills Park in Brookfield.
I've got a client visit in the afternoon, so I'll make the stop on the way to work since it's (a little) on the way.
Update @10:30a - Okay. I have a client coming in to see me so I'm hustling to work and I'll try later.
I got out of my client visit at 5pm and it was still light out though getting darker and starting to rain. I made two quick stops for geocaches (one DNF, one find) then proceeded to the park.
I had considered parking on the street directly across from the hashpoint which was just off the sidewalk at the edge of the park. When I arrived I wasn't sure if parking was allowed, so I parked in the lot for the park. There was a soccer game going on, so the parents were all hiding in their cars with the heaters going.
I've always been surprised by people choosing to play soccer let alone soccer in the rain. My own few games were rainy and unpleasant, so...
I snapped a couple of pictures of the park signs and made a quick walk to the hashpoint. The rain was just starting to get heavier as I got back into my car and started home.
My GPS tracklog is available in GPX and KMZ formats.

Feeding the Hungry: Student Launches Food Project
Inspired by MTV's Do Something Awards, an Alma College student is spearheading a local food project, recovering surplus perishable foods that would otherwise go to waste and donating it to people in need.
Christelle Bangsi, a junior from Southfield, with help from sorority sister Giselle Castillo, a junior from Stockton, Calif., have implemented their program on Alma College's campus and hope to expand their food recovery efforts to the greater Alma area.
"I was watching MTV's Do Something Awards, and the president of the Food Recovery Network was highlighted," says Bangsi. "I was looking to get involved in something philanthropically, so I found out more about the organization and reached out."
Working with staff from Sodexo, Alma College's food service provider, Bangsi brings left-over cooked food from Hamilton Food Commons to Community Café at First Presbyterian Church every Thursday. Pasta, pork loin, stuffed and mashed potatoes, desserts and soup have been included so far.
"The support we've received has been incredible," says Bangsi.
Since the national Food Recovery Network began working with college campuses in September 2011, more than 96,000 meals have been recovered.
"I continue to be impressed by Christelle's willingness to give so much of her time, energy and effort for such a great cause," says Steve Watkins, Sodexo general manager at Alma College. "We are proud to be a partner in finding practical solutions in the effort to eliminate hunger both locally and throughout Gratiot County."
Bangsi plans to explore additional recovery opportunities in Alma's downtown area for the Food Recovery Network.
"We're looking to expand; there's a lot of room to take this to the next level and help people," says Bangsi. "It's tax deductible, so there are big opportunities here."

The largest U.S. carrier is still struggling to integrate the former Continental and has experienced monumental glitches with reservation systems. It didn't help that UAL has a major hub at Chicago's notoriously congested and delay-prone O'Hare International. Still, 3.6% of the carrier's flights were delayed 70% of the time in July, compared to an industry rate of 1.2%.
Runners Up:
2. ExpressJet Airlines, regional subsidiary of SkyWest (NASDAQ:SKYW) — 67.7%
3. AMR's American Eagle — 75.4%
How Other Major Airlines Stack Up:
JetBlue (NASDAQ:JBLU) — 75.5%
American Airlines — 76.4%

Curried Chickpea Croquettes With Yogurt Sauce
Recipe by Studentchef
From the IGA Supermarket chain. It's too bad I can't post the picture because it looks really nice. Apparently two patties makes one serving, making it four servings for four people, especially with a complete meal. What I plan to do below is write that it makes eight patties, and allow everyone here to decide if they want to serve one or two patties per person. Because of the hot curry paste this is really for people who like their recipes hot.
Top Review by Maggie
These were really very good, and the yogurt sauce alone is worth keeping to accompany other spicy dishes as well because the flavors are such a nice cooling contrast to the spiciness. I used closer to just over 1/4 cup of almonds because I was trying to shave off some calories, and next time I'll be careful not to cut my onion to the point that it's watery (my own silly fault) because it made it more difficult to shape the croquettes. Still, they stayed together nicely after baking. Delicious! Thank you for sharing this.

Who has the crisis hit hardest?
The 53m people (close to the population of the UK) who will remain in extreme poverty by 2015 who would not have had there not been a crisis.
And that wasn't the grimmest of the World Bank-IMF Global Monitoring report.
"Although the recovery is underway the negative impact will be lasting," said Delfin Go, World Bank lead economist, at a press conference.
Among the other impacts of the crisis:
- 1.2m additional children may die from 2009 to 2015.
- 100m people (three times the population of Canada) may remain without access to clean drinking water.
- 350,000 more children may not finish primary school.

Mike Huckabee isn't tamping down speculation of another presidential run. But he isn't doing much to prepare for what on Thursday he called the "sausage grinder of a campaign."
The winner of the Iowa caucuses in 2008 doesn't sound all that enthusiastic about another bid as he travels on a nationwide book tour that includes early GOP primary states. Also calling into question how seriously the former Baptist pastor is weighing a candidacy: He plans to spend part of the summer in Alaska hosting a cruise, some of his former aides aren't waiting around for him to make a decision and Huckabee even offered up kind words for President Barack Obama, his would-be rival in 2012, and his family.
"Frankly, America needs a good role model like that," Huckabee said Thursday of Obama, the nation's first black president.
As for his own timeline, Huckabee said he is in no rush to start spending money on a campaign.
"The question that you're probably going to ask is 'are you going to run?' The question that I have for America is 'do you think this message resonate with you?'" Huckabee said. "If it does, that gives me a whole lot more encouragement to go put myself through the sausage grinder of a campaign."
It's hardly the first mixed signal about his interest in the 2012 race, which so far has drawn no declared candidates.
Many of the key players from Huckabee's 2008 bid have moved on. Former campaign manager Chip Saltsman now works for freshman Republican Congressman Chuck Fleischmann of Tennessee, and former campaign spokeswoman Alice Stewart took a job at the beginning of the year as a deputy to Arkansas Secretary of State Mark Martin, a Republican.
"It's one of those situations where he hasn't made up his mind, and we all have bills to pay, so we need to keep the money coming in," Stewart said. "In the event he decides to run, a lot of folks will revisit that."
Huckabee is doing just enough to remain a credible contender but is hardly clamoring to position himself as the front-runner in a second attempt at the White House.
Though the former governor remains a presence in Arkansas, he's no longer a resident of the state. He and his wife last year moved their residency and their voter registration to Florida, where he has a home under construction.
He has remained in contact with his supporters in Iowa, New Hampshire and South Carolina but hasn't been aggressive in his fundraising. He has maintained a national profile through his job with the Fox News Channel but hasn't rushed to insert himself into the daily back and forth the way some of his other potential rivals have.
Part of that calculation is financial; he is expected to leave his job at Fox should he run.
"I need to make sure I'm ready to give up my job to declare my candidacy," Huckabee said. "The day I say, 'I'm running,' that's the day I don't have an income."
And he will be spending a week at sea in June, playing host to tourists paying as much as $3,000 to spend seven days visiting Alaska.
Rex Nelson, a former aide to Huckabee when he was governor, said that the mixed messages aren't just an act, and he believes the former governor is truly torn about his future plans, especially when weighed against the lucrative opportunities of his television and radio jobs.
Republicans have yet to rally behind any of the potential candidates, none of whom has formally entered the race. Former Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty is in the process of putting together a presidential committee. Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, another 2008 candidate, is unlikely to launch his expected campaign before April.
Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich is expected to decide in the coming weeks. Indiana Gov. Mitch Daniels is talking with activists and operatives about a potential campaign, as is Mississippi Gov. Haley Barbour. Former Sen. Rick Santorum of Pennsylvania has been rolling out advisers but has yet to formally enter the race.
And Sarah Palin, her party's 2008 vice presidential nominee and former Alaska governor, has sustained a national profile and remains an open question for the Republicans.
None has yet taken the public steps of starting a campaign, in part because of the uncertainty of the field and in part because of costs.
It's a far cry from January 2007, when Huckabee joined the early flood of 2008 candidates _ just weeks after leaving office.
DeMillo reported from Little Rock, Ark.

Hospital Authority punished 40 staff
Forty Hospital Authority staff were disciplined in the past financial year for breaching the professional code or for negligence.
Secretary for Health and Welfare, Katherine Fok Lo Shiu-ching, said the Hospital Authority promptly investigated the causes of any medical incidents.
Staff would be disciplined if found to have been negligent or to have breached the professional code.
She said all medical procedures carried certain intrinsic risks. Some clinical staff might make errors 'due to factors related to experience, professional judgment and personal or other environmental reasons'.
But she said recent medical blunders were 'isolated' and did not indicate that all frontline clinical staff lacked alertness or a sense of accountability, or that there was insufficient staff.
While she agreed that staff shortages in hospitals might place workers under greater pressure, there was no reason to believe that staff made mistakes because of that.
Mrs Fok said the authority would consider several factors before deciding whether to disclose medical mistakes to the public.
These included whether disclosure would be acceptable to patients and families, whether the mistake would affect the well-being of the public, and whether disclosure would alert clinical staff and the public to adopt appropriate preventive measures.

JACQUES Kallis tip-toed his way through a tail-end rearguard in a desperate bid to fight another day in Perth, as Australia swung a sledgehammer at his injured hamstring yesterday.
The gutsy allrounder was the last real batting hope with Faf du Plessis as the Proteas stared at a 300-run deficit with just three wickets in hand early yesterday when he emerged from the dressing room at No. 9.
It was two spots lower than Kallis could have batted after he left the ground with his hamstring scare on day one, heating speculation the visitors face a selection nightmare just to field a balanced XI for the final Test in Perth.
Medicos had advised the grade-one strain at the top of Kallis' right hamstring would keep him off bowling duty for a fortnight, but that he was fit enough to bat.
They didn't bargain on a scorching Peter Siddle bouncer barrage. Siddle's spell shortly before lunch left Kallis ducking and weaving, and clutching the back of his leg in pain as he battled to keep alive South Africa's hopes of a series draw and a hold on their No. 1 Test ranking.
Kallis bravely defied the attack, steering South Africa to within seven runs of avoiding the follow-on target of 350.
He eventually fell caught behind to Michael Clarke for 58, when the ball bounced off his front pad and brushed the thumb of his glove on its way to Matthew Wade.
With the Adelaide Test increasingly likely to end in a draw or win for Australia, a typical "result" WACA wicket looms as the battle ground for the No. 1 spot.
An Australian series victory would achieve Michael Clarke's mission of restoring his side to cricket's pinnacle while a drawn tour - 0-0 or 1-1 - would keep South Africa at the top of the Test tree.
But with the Proteas still reeling from an injury crisis that has spiked in Adelaide, the visitors now face a selection-table headache to defend their crown.
Having lost JP Duminy to a freak Achilles tendon tear in Brisbane, skipper Graeme Smith was forced to rule out Vernon Philander when the paceman woke up with back spasms on the morning of the opening day in Adelaide.
The situation worsened with Kallis' strain midway through his fourth bowling over on day one. The veteran was immediately sent for scans, spent two nights waking every two hours to apply ice to his right buttock and played no role until he appeared during the first session of yesterday's third day.
But with just three days between Adelaide and the Perth Test starting on Friday, Kallis appears a risky proposition to take into the decider.
Depending on his recovery, South Africa could play Kallis as a specialist batsman. He showed trademark resistance when it was needed yesterday, despite his running between wickets being clearly compromised and appearing discomforted moving forward in the crease.
If his fitness is considered too great a gamble in Perth, it is possible back-up wicketkeeper Thami Tsolekile could come off the bench to allow part-time gloveman AB de Villiers to concentrate on his top-order batting.
Tsolekile was overlooked in Adelaide for du Plessis, who was preferred as a like-for-like replacement for Duminy. Tsolekile's inclusion would calm simmering political tension in South Africa, where there is growing angst at the lack of black African players in the Proteas side.
Earlier this month, retired quick Makhaya Ntini claimed Tsolekile - widely regarded the premier gloveman in South African cricket - would already be part of the team "if he was white''.
The Proteas already seem bound to sack ineffective spinner Imran Tahir, who was smacked to all corners of Adelaide Oval on his way to racking up the horrible first-innings figures of 0/180 from his 23 overs.
That opens the door for left-arm tweaker Robin Peterson, if selectors go for a spin option on the usually pace-friendly WACA strip. The 33-year-old can play a containing role with the ball and, with a batting average of 27.16 from his six Tests, provide some lower-order batting.
Reports suggest Philander should make a full recovery from the tightness in his back by Friday - a prognosis selectors will hope stands up to ease the pace load on Dale Steyn and Morne Morkel.
There was also suggestion yesterday the Proteas were racing the clock as they considered flying in replacement allrounder Ryan McLaren to Perth, but were concerned at the short time to acclimatise.

I've realized that I may have accidentally kicked off this brand new year with a less than satisfactory attitude. See, considering most of us feed not on food and water, but rather, on repetitive loops and largely spastic sound frequencies, I feel that my choice to post a less-than-sweaty track as the first of the new year may have proven a near fatal mistake for all but the heartiest of readers. Fortunately, I've come to my senses, and have no other goal than to take you all off of your hypothetical life support; you'd be surprised how readily a decent kick drum can replace those clunky defibrillators. Psh… ancient technology.
Fake Blood
He goes by the name Fake Blood, and he likes to keep himself out of all his myspace photos. Well, that, or he morphs himself into an aqueous blob, probably because he's well aware of just how brilliant his ridiculous sounds are, and so he decided to practice avoiding his inevitable fame in advance. Fortunately for you, these disco roots stretch to wonderland and back, and have allowed me to make the connection between Fake Blood and one, Touché. (Please, feel free to explore this recently constructed hallway to new noise.) Now, in case you're curious, the two aliases are a necessity, due mostly to the fact that this London producer's extremely peculiar sounds cannot be contained by a mere single name, and frankly, I'm surprised that two is even enough. Instead of following the standard electro process and rearranging the same synths and sounds into a different pattern to create "new" tracks (kinda like Mexican food), Fake Blood formulates a giant spider web of familiar, yet altered sounds, that provide adequate transitions into altogether unheard of noises (including, but not limited to: blips, whips whoops, whops, pangs, and in one particular case, elevator dings). It hurts me to make associations here, however, since I can't have any potential dance floor occupants avoiding this one, I'll go so far as to say that Fake Blood (at least to me) welcomes the production style of Herve, but with a whole other world of sounds and rhythms.
Personally, this seems a more fitting and energetic approach to (optimism, please) an increasingly inspired year. (Although in all honesty, my apologies go to yee all, for failing to post these deviant works earlier on).

As we have seen throughout this quarter, God's original Creation was "good," even "very good."Everything and everyone came forth from the hand of the Creator in a state of perfection. There was no sickness, no disease, no death. Contrary to the evolutionary model—in which disease, sickness, and death are part of the very means of creation—these things came only after the Fall, after the entrance of sin. Thus, it is only against the background of the Creation story that we can better understand the biblical teaching about health and healing.
Read 1 Corinthians 6:19-20. What is our responsibility to God regarding the care of our bodies?
Our bodies are the vehicle for our brain, and it is through our brain that the Holy Spirit communicates with us. If we wish to have communion with God, we must take care of our bodies and brains. If we abuse our bodies, we destroy ourselves, both physically and spiritually. According to these texts, the whole question of health itself, and how we take care of our bodies, the "temple of God," is a moral issue, one filled with eternal consequences.
Care of our health is a vital part of our relationship to God. Obviously, some aspects of our health are beyond our power. We all have defective genes, we all are exposed to unknown chemicals or other damaging agents, and we are all at risk of physical injury that may damage our health. God knows all this. But to the extent that lies within our power, we are to do our best to maintain our bodies, made in the image of God.
"Let none who profess godliness regard with indifference the health of the body, and flatter themselves that intemperance is no sin, and will not affect their spirituality. A close sympathy exists between the physical and the moral nature. The standard of virtue is elevated or degraded by the physical habits. . . . Any habit which does not promote healthful action in the human system degrades the higher and nobler faculties."-Ellen G. White, The Review and Herald,Jan. 25, 1881.

Britney Spears and Ryan Phillippe make out in bathrooms
The National Enquirer is claiming that Britney Spears and Ryan Phillippe hooked up in a bathroom at Les Deux last week. A source told the magazine that Ryan stopped by Britney's table and "Britney had her arms around him." She then allegedly followed Phillippe into the men's room and, after getting worried, her bodyguards are said to have "busted in the door and found Britney and Ryan groping and kissing."
I want to believe this is true, but I have serious problems believing Ryan Phillippe would make out with Britney Spears. Housetraining maybe, but not making out. It's not like he's getting Reese Witherspoon quality women anymore, but he's still a few steps above farm animal.

Intel On The Forefront Of Green Technology
Thankfully, it doesn't look like Google is the only one leading the pack on green technology. Intel is ramping up efforts to decrease its carbon footprint as well. Intel plans to focus on the monitoring the following areas and how its facilities affect them.
The areas of focus include energy, weather, climate, water, air quality, extreme events, agriculture, and transportation. Although it is unclear exactly what Intel plans to do in the aforementioned areas, the company will definitely focus on sustainability for its buildings.
The computer processor giant has already developed smart buildings, with a proof of concept building project in France, that generates more electricity than it uses. Intel hopes to create many more smart buildings that create positive energy. Perhaps to help bring power to other needed areas.
Intel also has big plans for weather modeling. Specifically, the company plans on working with the National Center for Atmospheric Research to work on better weather predictions, and how to prevent disasters such as tornadoes and flash floods.
Given Intel's advanced work on computer chips and architecture, I am confident that the company can do much good for planet Earth if it puts its mind to it. Making environmental awareness a top priority these days is essential if we plan on continuing our existence as humans on this planet. Check out the video below to see one way Intel is working on green technology.

That was the clear message today at the company's annual developer conference in San Francisco, which attracted 4,000 people.
The focus of Google's pitch: HTML5, the next version of the internet markup language, which should exploit more of the capabilities in browsers to produce richer applications and experiences. Among the things Google showed off today were 3D graphics running inside a browser, a way to parcel out computing resources more efficiently so that browsers can handle much heavier workloads, and tools to make browser-based apps continue to function even when offline.

Soccer News of Wednesday, 26 February 2014
Source: Match Hospitality
MATCH Hospitality AG, the worldwide exclusive rights holder of the FIFA Hospitality Programme, has appointed Lorient Kal Travel and Tours Limited as Authorized Sales Agent in Ghana for the sale of the Official Hospitality Programme of the 2014 FIFA World Cup Brazil.
Following this appointment, Lorient Kal Travel and Tours is currently the only company in Ghana authorised to sell ticket-inclusive hospitality packages to organizations and individuals for the 2014 FIFA World Cup™ in Brazil, which will be held from June 12 to July 13.
Any other Ghanaian company purporting to be an Agent authorised by MATCH Hospitality or FIFA to market and sell the Official Hospitality Programme is doing so in an illegitimate manner.
Jaime Byrom, Executive Chairman of MATCH Hospitality commented: "We are very pleased to announce the appointment of Lorient Kal Travel and Tours Limited as a Non-exclusive Sales Agent in their home country Ghana.
"Lorient Kal Travel and Tours allows MATCH Hospitality to reach out to this exciting market, where interest for the 2014 FIFA World Cup™ is peaking after the Black Stars qualified in style for Brazil."
Kwabena Appiah, Managing Director of Lorient Kal Travel and Tours, emphasised: "Lorient Kal Travel and Tours is in the best position to satisfy the ticket-inclusive hospitality package needs of corporate executives and football fans in Ghana who want to see our team competing in Brazil and enjoy live in the stadiums the unique atmosphere of a FIFA World Cup™."
"What is more, it is essential for the public to be mindful of the difference between ticket-inclusive hospitality packages, which are being sold by Lorient Kal, and ordinary flight and accommodation packages to Brazil, which do not in any way serve as a guarantee to attend any of the FIFA World Cup™ matches in the stadiums", Appiah added.
The MATCH Hospitality Sales Agent Network currently comprises 45 agents covering close to 90 countries all over the world.
The FIFA Hospitality Programme offers clients premium tickets bundled together with a wide range of services such as facilities at the stadiums (including private suites and lounges and marquee tents), gourmet catering, preferential parking, entertainment and gifts.
MATCH Hospitality AG has developed three separate categories of hospitality and six unique products, which can be combined in five types of series, and will suit the needs and expectations of corporate clients, groups and families. Services will range from private dining, business to business platforms to informal settings for groups and families.

After your credit counselor has a better idea of your financial situation, they will help create a budget that works for you. In addition, they'll also guide you through the steps that need to be taken to ensure you have a little money left over at the end of each month.
As one of the biggest reasons people fall in debt is the lack of a proper budget, your counselor will work with you to make sure you're able to stay well within the confines of your finances.

Let me take you by the hand and show you exactly what you need to do to not only start a blog, but create great content, bring visitors to that content, and then profit from them!
Blogging For Money: Starting Your Very Own Web Business! has over 3 hours worth of content, which will save you hundreds, or even thousands of hours in the long run of struggling to make money online.
While making money blogging is certainly no walk in the park, if you put in the hard work necessary to succeed, you too can be the next person to quit their day job forever to be a self-employed blogger!
Welcome to the course! This lecture will help you learn:
Many people don't realize why blogging is so powerful, and why it is such a good choice for people starting their first web business, or even as an addition to an exisiting business.
In this lecture, you will learn:
Choosing a good niche is the one of the most important things you can do to ensure success with blogging. Your niche will determine your ideal traffic generation methods as well as monetization methods that we'll talk about later on, so do not skip over this lecture!
In this lecture, you will learn:
Still struggling with choosing a niche? Here is a list of over 250 profitable niche ideas that you can choose from if you're having a hard time finding one of your own. You can't go wrong with one of these!
You can't easily change your domain name later, so choosing the right one is extremely important. In this lecture, you'll learn how to:
There are plenty of web hosts available, but which one should you choose? Learn what I personally recommend in this lecture!
This is the most technical lecture of all. WordPress is the content management system we'll be using to manage virtually everything on your blog. Fortunately, once it's installed, everything else from here on out is smooth sailing!
You'll also learn how to get your own custom domain email (email@example.com, for example.)
This lecture will teach you:
There are a few pages every blog need to succeed. In this lecture, you'll learn exactly what these pages are, and how they benefit your site!
Google has provided us with some awesome tools that allow us to track the visitors that visit our blog. These two tools are called Google Analytics, and Google Webmaster Tools.
In this lecture, you will learn:
Many people start blogging aimlessly without thinking about their content from a business perspective. Unfortunately, if you want to make money, you have to write content that satisfies your visitors needs.
In this lecture, you will learn:
At one point or another, we all have problems coming up with blog post ideas. Fortunately, this lecture will make sure that is never an issue for you ever again.
In this lecture, you will learn:
In today's world, people don't just expect content that's fun to read - they want content that's fun to look at is well.
In this lecture, you will learn:
It's understandable that you're excited to publish your first pieces of content, but remember this - people are going to read it, and they are going to expect perfection. Before publishing, be sure to make sure that your content passes the criteria I am about to share with you!
Plugins are one of the most powerful features of WordPress. With only a few clicks of a button, you can do everything from add new features to your site to tweaking things at the backend. Here are 7 WordPress plugins that everybody should check out!
Many people make the mistake of focusing on the quantity of traffic they get, rather than the quality of the traffic they're receiving. If you are able to attract the right type of people, you actually do not need a whole lot of traffic to make a great amount of money online. Rather than wasting effort to get as many people as possible, let's talk about how you can attract the right people.
Search engines use something called spiders to crawl every single page of your site. This lecture will focus on making your website as clean as possible, making it easier for search engine spiders to do their job. You'll also learn how to create a sitemap, allowing search engine spiders to find all of your content very quickly!
There is a lot of misconcepts regarding backlinks. Backlinks are links back to your site from another site, but not all backlinks are equal. In fact, the wrong backlinks can actually hurt your search engine rankings, or even get you blacklisted from Google forever!
In this lecture, you will learn:
Many people feel that search engines are the end-all-be-all. That if you rank highly in search engines, you are guaranted success. In other cases, people make the mistake of thinking that the only way to succeed is to rank high in search engines. As you're about to find out, this isn't true at all!
YouTube is an incredibly powerful platform for bringing free, long-term traffic to your website. As you're about to find out, YouTube videos aren't all that challenging to create, and each video you produce acts as its very own entrance door to your website, which is open 24 hours a day.
In this lecture, you will learn:
Social media isn't as simple as posting links to your articles and expecting people to flood in. It just doesn't work like that! But don't worry, this lecture will help you make the most out of social media.
In this lecture, you will learn:
Similar to YouTube, forum posting is a great way to build free, long-term traffic as well.
In this lecture, you will learn:
Blog commenting is one of my favorite traffic generation methods, but it's largely underappreciated. This is becuse most people don't understand the power blog commenting actually has!
In this lecture, you will learn:
Networking is one of the greatest ways to grow your audience quickly. When you make friends with other bloggers in your niche, you can leverage the work they've put into their own marketing efforts, and bring some of their visitors back with you to your website. In this lecture, you will learn:
This is the single most important lecture in this section. If you are not doing something to retain the visitors that arrive on your site, you will not grow your audience very quickly. While most people will bounce, if you are able to retain a percentage of your visitors by capturing their email, you will begin to grow an asset that can literally send you a surge of traffic on demand.
In this lecture, you will learn:
You may have heard the term 'content is king' before. This is absolutely true. Everything in blogging stems from your content. If your content doesn't satisfy your visitors needs, than they won't return, and you won't make any money.
One of the most popular ways to monetize a blog is through Google Adsense. This lecture will explain to you what Google Adsense is, and how you can use it to make money from your website.
In this lecture, you will learn:
Affiliate marketing is one of the most powerful monetization methods bloggers can utilize. With affiliate marketing, you market another company's product. Whenever you make a sale, you earn a commission ranging anywhere from 4% to 75% of the product's price. Some people are making over a million dollars a year from affilitate marketing alone!
In this lecture, you will learn:
Selling ad space and / or sponsored posts on your site is a great way to earn recurring, consistent income. You'll often know exactly how much you're getting paid each month, providing you a bit of security!
In this lecture, you will learn:
This is probably my favorite monetization method of all, because it's so powerful. Creating a product can launch your business to new levels, make you an incredible amount of passive income, and even allow you to recruit your own affiliates to market your product for you!
In this lecture, you will learn:
If you don't want to create a product to sell, you can also sell your sevices. Because your audience knows, likes, and trusts you, you can get away with charging very high rates. You're your own boss, so you get to set the value of your time!
In this lecture, you will learn:
You can't enter into this blindly. It takes a well thought out strategy to maximize the earnings you make from your blog. Think like your visitor and tailor your monetization methods to fit their needs, and you'll do far better than the vast majority of bloggers. This lecture will teach you how!
I appreciate you taking the time to go through this course, and I hope you have gained a lot of value from it. In this lecture, I'll help you decide the best course of action to take next and continue improving.
I can't wait to hear your success story!
Hi! My name is James McAllister, and I am a blogger, businessman, but most importantly, an entrepreneur.
I have been blogging for over 7 years. During that time, I have figured out exactly what works, and what's to be avoided. I don't just enjoy blogging though - I have written many best-selling books under various pen names, and have explored nearly everything internet marketing has to offer. I've done everything from freelance web design to selling on Amazon, and I'm constantly expanding my knowledge of making money online!
A bit more about me. I started my first website at the age of 11, and have since gone on to make a full-time living online. Here on Udemy, I would love to teach you what brought me to where I am today!

Sweetbay Supermarket parent, Delhaize of Belgium, slashing 5,000 jobs after weak sales
Sweetbay Supermarket's Mike Vail was a key player in the leadership team that transformed Kash n' Karry Food Stores into a more upscale Sweetbay Supermarket for its Belgian owners. More than eight years later as Sweetbay president, he's guiding the Tampa Bay area chain through an extended economic downturn and aggressive expansion by rivals Publix, Walmart, and less pricey newcomers Aldi and Save-A-Lot. All this at a time when consumers balk at paying rising food prices. Read more from this 2011 Tampa Bay Times story here. (Photo: Jim Damaske, Tampa Bay Times)
Wake up and good morning. Delhaize, the Belgian parent of the Tampa Bay area Sweetbay Supermarket chain and other grocery store brands shocked the business world saying it plans to cut 5,000 jobs after fourth-quarter sales fell short of expectations in its key United States and Belgium markets, due to the weak consumer sentiment and price competition. Here's more overview from Bloomberg News.
I can't say I am too surprised. When Sweetbay emerged after an overhaul and rebranding of this area's tired Kash n' Karry chain, I was delighted and the stores looked promising. Lately, they have faded. I don't see many customers when I am there. There are few cashiers. Sweetbay's choices are sometimes limited and their pricing strategy -- presumably intended to be cheaper overall than No. 1 market leader Publix, for example -- is not sharp enough to feel I've saved much if any money on a weekly food shopping. For value shoppers, that's troubling.
There's no word yet on what these big corporate cuts may mean for the 105-store Sweetbay chain. But another Delhaize food chain many may know -- Food Lion -- just announced that all Food Lion stores in the greater Jacksonville area (that's a dozen stores just in Jacksonville) are closing within 30 days. About 900 Florida employees of the chain will be affected with about 450 of those coming from Jacksonville locations. Stores in Clay, St. Johns, Nassau, Baker and Alachua counties are also closing.
Delhaize makes about 65 percent of its revenue in the United States. On Thursday it said would cut close 113 underperforming stores there and a further 20 convenience stores and supermarkets in Bulgaria, Serbia and Bosnia & Herzegovina. Read more from the Jacksonville Times Union about the Food Lion hits here.
Delhaize America has more than 1,600 stores in 16 states in the eastern United States. In addition to Sweetbay and Food Lion, the company operates stores known as Bottom Dollar Food, Harveys, Hannaford Supermarkets and Reid's.
Delhaize said that comparable store sales (stores open at least one year) fell by 0.4 percent in the United States in the final three months of 2011, hit by inflation and weak consumer confidence. Belgian stores registered a similar decline of 1.5 percent."While we grew our revenues for the full year, we are disappointed in the fourth quarter revenues in the U.S. and Belgium," Delhaize CEO Pierre-Olivier Beckers said in a statement. In November, Delhaize said conditions were becoming steadily tougher as consumers would not accept inflation-linked price hikes and traded down to cheaper products.
All in all, not a good sign for Tampa Bay area food shoppers. No. 1 Publix and No. 2 Walmart/Sam's Club continue to be strong. Struggling Winn-Dixie was just bought by Bi-Lo. It's an ultra-competitive market.

She didn't have a hissy fit or stomp around like a three year old needing a nap. She left with dignity. Melissa is older than her and should have learned this lesson by now. Then again, look at her mother's reaction, she threw the same baby fit. I guess it is hard for Melissa to learn that when Joan is her role model.

Sally Hansen Diamond Lip Treatment Reviews
Is this discontinued???I remember wearing this diamond gloss a few yers ago- but I havnt seen it since! I liked it because it felt good and it was shiny! Made my lips soft! The only downfall is that this lipgloss taste like lipgloss- and I like my lip gloss flavored- especially if I plan on kissing my man! — 6 years, 5 months agostephanie_drinkard | 41 reviews
Love IT!!I am addicted to anything lip balm, lip conditioner, plumper, you name it. I tried this on a whim and fell in love with it, it works great on a day when you just feel like no makeup, it brightens up your lips while extremely conditioning and works wonders with full makeup, many shades, from light to intense. I love this stuff. It actually smells amazing and the taste is not bad either. Love It..now I have to find some more cause it was all sold out except for a few tubes..... — 6 years, 6 months agoTiffanys_Face | 133 reviews
Love the smell!This product smells so good. It's hard to describe. And I love the variety of shades. I get so many compliments when I wear this. It is conditioning my lips while adding color and shine and it has sparkles in it. The downside is, as with any gloss, it doesn't stay on long and it is a little sticky. But I've had stickier. — 6 years, 7 months agoMJay13 | 87 reviews
very stickyI found the gloss to be really gloppy and sticky. Also the bristles started to fray and stick out everywhere, making the brush useless. — 6 years, 9 months agomlovesmakeup | 23 reviews
Almost perfectThis gloss has so much going for it. There is a beautiful range of colors, and you can actually see the color on your lips. There are so many glosses out there that simply look clear once you apply it to your lips, not this one. The scent is sweet but not overpowering. I can't taste anything, which is good, because when I can I have a tendency to lick my lips and then they get chapped. I love th...read moree brush applicator, and you get plenty of product with just a couple of dips. It's smooth, rich, and creamy going on. And the best part is that it is moisturizing. And the price is right, I bought mine at the dollar store! So what's my problem? It's super sticky and I have long hair. I can not wear this gloss if I have any plans to go outdoors. The slightest breeze and my lips become a hair magnet. This gloss is perfect for any woman with shorter to medium hair, if it's long enough to reach your lips though, it's a no-go. — 6 years, 10 months agodmj618 | 1 reviews
love the colorsI have to admit at first I was a bit afraid that by "diamond" shine it meant "loaded with glitter" but it is far from an 8 year old's glitter gloss. The shine is very glistening and goes so well with the colors. It's not sticky at all which is great for those windy days when your hair gets stuck on sticky lips! The best part is that it didn't leave my lips dried out. I'm not a big fan of the fuzzy wand or the scent though. — 7 years, 4 months agowindoweyes | 64 reviews
Beautiful In Every Way!This product will send an irresistable shine and charm not only to your lips but to your whole face. You get a 5 hour beauty look with great value for a low price! You really can't go wrong with this product! — 7 years, 7 months agoEsmerelda | 7 reviews
very pretty, and flirty !i love this gloss ! application is easy, the colors are very pretty and sparkly, leaves your lips feeling soft. the scent is very inviting and it is very inexpensive, the "diamond" is a pretty touch, making it fun to apply. great buy ! — 7 years, 8 months agox3candybabyx3 | 12 reviews
goodsheer and sparkly. Small sparkles, sticky, leaks, but pretty diamond decoration! — 7 years, 9 months agolivre3 | 15 reviews
SHINYNICE AND SHINY, GOOD PRICE. — 7 years, 7 months agoSamarita | 139 reviews
