Joined Dec 21, 2009, a random youtube channel was created to review random things! Airsoft, manga, pianos… basically whatever trash was laying around the house got a "review." Talk about having nothing better to do right?
Cringe Logo 2009
The meaning behind this logo: It's a blatant reference to Resident Evil 4, the merchant that says, "What are you buying stranger?" Except he has an Australian accent, so it sounds more like "Buyen" than "buying." Plus for some reason, "WhatAreYouBuying" was taken. But we're not going to give those guys any free promotion. (if their youtube channel even still exists…)
Wow look at that logo! "What Are You Buyen? Mayte!" Are you ready to cringe?
This is just a random phrase that one of our friends said long ago, and (at the time, remember we were barley in highschool at this time) we thought it was the most hilarious thing… I know, I know, it's pretty bad even to kids these days…
15,000 Subscribers Logo Change 2013
August, 2013, a new logo will quickly become one of the most recognized airsoft patches on fields today! (Distributed to a lot of CQB airsoft fields). When people see this logo, I think the first thing everyone thinks is, "Airsoft!" and how funny these videos can be.
The meaning behind this logo: This is a less obvious reference to Resident Evil 4, not that we have anything against that game, but I think it's a lot "cooler" when the references aren't so obvious! For those who do get it, I think the payoff is more rewarding. If there even is a payoff.
This logo was designed specifically to become an airsof patch! The inspiration for this design came at a time when "retro" logos were cool, a lot of throwback and retro things were popping up at this time, I would know, we remember shooting a lot of "throwback" P**** and C*** drinks. (Non-sponsors don't get free shout outs.) Specifically, this design idea came after playing a video game called Bioshock:Infinite. (Video game sponsors get free shout outs because they don't really need re-promotion.)
The steampunk looks and retro designs really inspired us and this logo is kind of just an attempt to refine the "WhatAreYouBuyen" brand and at least make it look like a logo for a channel with over 15K subscribers. There is no deep or hidden meaning behind this logo to be honest, just reviews and fun stuff. It's just a channel, a group of friends who meet up after school and have fun times while filming it.
Airsoft Sponsor After Sponsor! They Were Basically Disposable!
By this time, we realized airsoft was our "thing." We picked up a lot of sponsors from E****.com to A*****.com. In fact, just when we picked up one major sponsor and made an epic video, conveniently another major sponsor would get in touch with us and try desperately to work out a great new sponsorship "deal" with us. But most of you know how the story goes, sponsored or not, if we think the gun sucks, we will say it!
Most new sponsors don't last for long! Want to give a free shout out to Airsplat.com for being one of the best sponsors, even though now they have somehow disappeared since changing ownership, it's a shame really. They stuck around when we smashed their guns and when we praised them, the minigun review we did for them got over 1 million views!
Awesome Patches
Check out these iconic patches, distributed to airsoft fields and players nation wide! (Maybe even some of these patches can be found around the world.) Whenever a fan recognized us on the fields, we would reward them with a free patch! We usually also sold our patches at airsoft events whenever we had booths (or didn't have booths).
We will probably continue to use these patches for airsofting purposes! It's a great design and it's definitely meant to be a patch! However, a T-shirt design, website logo, or business card? This logo just doesn't work and who could take a company seriously with a logo like that? Hardly even airsoft companies at this point!
It was a very fun ride, rising from 15,000 subscribers to over 75,000 in less than 3 years. (I know, about time!) Many of our videos broke over 1 million views and we just kept at it with the comedy, the cinematography, the amazing video editing, and the pissing off of an entire industry as we smashed guns to bits.
It's a lot of fun! Though I can't say dealing with the industry or telling the average person, "We make airsoft videos" is really all too fun. Honestly, not a lot of respect is earned.
Our first tech review featuring non-airsoft sponsors such as Parrot MiniDrones and Tentacle Grape soda! I have to tell you, working with tech sponsors and soda sponsors is a LOT more fun and feels a lot more accomplished than working with airsoft sponsors, I'm just going to be honest with you! Putting on our resume that we worked with Parrot, or ForeverSpin, or soda companies is a lot more impressive to normal people than "airsoft companies" that nobody has ever heard of or cares about.
78,000 Subscriber Logo Update? 2016
Technically speaking, we should actually have 100K subs at this point, just sayen…
I understand, some of our content is offensive, silly, or just down right stupid! We do it to entertain the fans, and when we appeal to a very specific industry or type of people, we really alienate the rest of the world. Good to know we SHOULD have been at 100K by now, so time for a new logo!
Behold! The new, modern 2016 logo we have been waiting for! It's clean, it's simple, and it doesn't represent only airsoft, but it could be applied to a tech channel, a gaming channel, anything really. BEST OF ALL, it's chocked full of hidden references and ideas. This is not your generic fire logo, this is the new emblem for WhatAreYouBuyen!
The meaning behind this logo: Obviously it is a reference to RE4, and this time, while being subtle, I think it won't be obvious to everyone who lays eyes on it, but at least it's not as blatant as our first logo! Need to stay true to our roots and inspiration right? But let's examine this logo a little further.
Here is the blue fire which always accompanied the merchant from Resident Evil 4. We have tried fire logos in the past, but none of them really captured that look we were really going for, it just kind of felt generic or stupid to be honest!
Hidden Meanings
Besides representing the blue fire from the RE4 Merchant, this logo has a lot of other "meanings" or interpretations, maybe I'm just looking into this too much or maybe we're just making all of this up and it's really just a blue fire logo, who knows?
What's the POINT: Every point in this shape counts for a letter in the phrase, "WhatAreYouBuyen." Really! Check the image above! Follow the logo along the points and spell out that phrase! Inverted points, round shape "technical" pixel points don't count, sorry! Don't try to be a smart ass about it!
The people who designed this logo are really brilliant! Shout out to Bizurk Software for being the most amazing designers ever! http://www.bizurk.net
Isn't the phrase, "WhatAreYouBuyen" actually a question? Yes it is, but you've been staring at the question mark this whole time!
Okay… maybe this one is a little forced, but it's entirely plausible okay?
Anything Else?
The gradient and geometric shapes in the logo reflect that of a more professional, tech oriented brand. We hope this logo will serve us well as we attempt to be taken more seriously by bigger and more demanding industries.
Fire is generic, I know. You see fire logos everywhere from logo templates to presidential campaigns. But in our case, this fire has some relevance to the origin of our name and to the fact that we will be the "hottest" product review channel ever! 😉
Okay so this one is really a stretch, but what if the "you" in whatareyoubuyen is actually represented by the shape of the fire in that of a "U?" Yes! No? Is that one too forced, okay.
What about the fire, symbolizing your cash burning away as you "buy" things? And our channel's attempt to stop you from burning your money? NO?
okay, I'll stop now… .
Honorable Mentions
In our pathetic attempts to re-brand ourselves as something we just were not. (At the time anyways).
Here's that stupid blue fire logo again, this was waaay back when this website first launched. The blue fire is hidden in the "Y" which is supposed to be like the stand that the fire burns in. It just looks really bad! But we rolled with it for a while, exclusively on this website only.
Now this one is kind of cool, still a bit generic looking, but I could have seen this as a T-shirt design or something. I think we even did a T-shirt design for it. But this one, again felt bland, generic, and since we were exclusively airsoft, it didn't attach!
The only reason this logo exists, is because one of our friend's signature looks was a red tie with a suit and jacket. (No Trump did not hang out with us… unfortunately…. )
As you can see, the cleverness in this design with a hidden "W," but still, we were not "professionals," we were teenagers with essentially parties in our back yards! This is why I say, these other logos tried to make us into something we were not. We would have been laughed at if we tried to implement these logos!
That is why this logo (above) lasted the longest! It stated our name, it worked as a patch, and it represented fun and happiness, while at the same time representing nothing at all! Just a plain logo that says our name with fun stuff. It worked really well and fit well with the type of content we had been producing! This logo has served us well and we will probably use it for our patches still.
Closing Words
We hope this logo will serve us well, and help guide us to our goal of actually hitting 100K subscribers. Certainly, this logo is a lot more presentable to the average person, tech company, and other sponsor type. This logo will work well as a T-shirt design, business card, etc… And hopefully, it will become recognized just as much as our previous logo had been on the airsoft scene.
Fire seems appropriate for tech, gaming, and other industries in general. The fact that it is kind of a generic symbol, actually benefits us more!
Yes we will be moving on into bigger and better industries, we've been trying to leave airsoft for a really long time now to be honest. The industry is small, nasty, and very, very cheap! If we want to do youtube full time, we have to move out into bigger and better ventures! (That doesn't mean we won't try to make awesome airsoft cinematic or use airsoft guns in future videos of course!)
Who knows, if we get big enough, perhaps we will expand the team and start a specific airsoft unit dedicated only to airsoft videos. Of course we will supervise and approve the content so long as it matches with what we think you guys have come to know and love from this channel!
Thanks for all the support, be sure to share your favorite videos from us with your friends, and let's hit 100K before the end of this year!
They say hitting your first 100K subscribers is the hardest step…. But, as I'd imagine, throwing around the phrase, "we have over 100K subscribers" would really bring the attention of the media, sponsors, and other interested groups… I'm sure it helps a LOT!

Welcome to this website, presenting the songs of Tony McLoughlin from guitar folk/roots ballads to rocking Americana and blues. If you have soul, you're in the right place!
JANUARY 2017 ! It sounds like a date from a science fiction novel!! But here we are, and still writing, singing, listening to, and recording "hand made music"...what else should we do that is so real, soulful, sharing, and essential? So..with this continued goal..here is what is going on at the moment with Tony McLoughlin Music ! 2016 late Springtime saw the release by Fuego.de of my 6th studio album "WHERE IS JACK"(available at the usual sites i.e. iTunes, Amazon, Spotify etc) This is a collaboration album with the incredible Marlon Klein of Dissidenten fame (dissidenten.de) and it really took me out of my usual rhythmic comfort zone. The resulting music is an exceptional collection Americana, Roots, and Blues..see for yourself!....current plans are for another "Tony McLoughlin" album and I am in the early stages of recording tracks for this. A special treat for me is that I am visiting my son Kim (bass on Where Is Jack album) in Johannesburg at the moment and we are laying down basic tracks in his studio..a first mix of "BLOOD ON BLOOD" is sounding fantastic! More soon folks !.....
NEW ALBUM RELEASE/NEW RECORD DEAL/NEW DATES...Hello friends , as we peep our darkened heads gently out of hibernation ... well another tough month to go... we begin to look for the brightness to come ....See NEWS/BLOG JAN 2016...
Album review: TONY McLOUGHLIN – The Contender
Posted on September 7, 2013 by admin
He may look uncannily like Billy Connolly's long lost brother, but opening with strains of Muhammad Ali getting ready to 'rumble in the jungle', Tony McLoughlin's fifth album The Contender is a glorious Telecaster-infused slab of Tom Petty/Springsteen inspired Americana.
Working once again with fellow Northern Ireland countryman Ben Reel, this time with McLoughlin co-producing, and with the same rhythm section of Ronnie O'Flynn (bass) and Michael Black (drums), The Contender features the six string virtuosity of long term collaborator German born, Nashville based German Thomm Jutz, German bluesman Timo Gross, and respected Monaghan musician Mick McCarney.
Pete Feenstra pronounced McLoughlin's last outing as encapsulating 'all that is good in the contemporary roots rock genre'. And on the strength of The Contender, I'd have to concur – the songs while borrowing heavily on the likes of Petty, stand tall in their own right, and while McLoughlin's Petty / Springsteen / Knopfler imbued vocals are equally derivative, there's a shimmering vibrancy that's reflective of much of Reel's own recent work.
The Americana market is an overcrowded place at present, but there's a gritty soul about that The Contender that makes McLoughlin one of its premier exponents. Classy. ****

Moses' third speech, Part 10
Sep 22, 2012
Deuteronomy 10:20 says,
20 You shall fear the Lord your God; you shall serve Him and cling to Him, and you shall swear by His name.
Because Israel's God was the Creator, a God of both love and justice, He was worthy of Israel's respect ("fear") and obedience. Moses tells Israel to "cling to Him," instead of being drawn to other gods who make similar claims and demands, but who are unable to fulfill their promises.
21 He is your praise and He is your God, who has done these great and awesome things for you which your eyes have seen.
The NASB uses the term "awesome" to give the sense of the Hebrew word yare ("fear"). The KJV renders it "terrible" in the Old English sense of causing fear or terror. But the Hebrew word used here is the same as in the previous verse where we are told to "fear the Lord your God." The Hebrew word yare has a broad meaning, ranging from outright fear to respect, reverence, awe, and admiration.
In the New Testament it becomes clearer that God is not only God, King, and Judge, but that we ought to have a personal relationship with Him and think of Him as our Father. In other words, we are to love Him even as He loves us.
22 You fathers went down to Egypt, seventy persons in all, and now the Lord your God has made you as numerous as the stars of heaven.
God had given this promise to Abraham as early as Genesis 15:5, saying,
5 And He took him outside and said, "Now look toward the heavens, and count the stars, if you are able to count them." And He said to him, "So shall your descendants be."
This promise was repeated to Isaac in Genesis 26:4 and again implied with Jacob in Genesis 28:4. Jacob's sons were then called "stars" in Joseph's dream in Genesis 37:9. When the family went to live in Egypt at Joseph's invitation, they numbered only "seventy persons," but by the time of Moses they numbered about six million, as shown by the census.
Those seventy, however, did not include the entire clan, or village, which were under Jacob's authority. Recall that as early as the time of Abraham, we see that he was not a lone man walking around Canaan. When his nephew Lot was captured in the Elamite war with Sodom, Abraham had 318 warriors "born in his house" (Genesis 14:14) who set out to free lot from captivity.
At that time, Abraham had no children of his own—not even Ishmael. If those 318 warriors each had at least one wife and a few children, it is clear that Abraham's village would have had a population of close to two thousand. By the next generation, in the time of Isaac, that population could easily have doubled. And by the time Jacob went to Egypt at the age of 130 (Genesis 47:9), it is not unreasonable to think that ten thousand people went to Egypt with those seventy Israelites.
This would partially explain the rapid rise in Israel's population, for we see by the time they left Egypt, no clear distinction is made any longer between the direct descendants of Jacob and the rest of the clan. They were all fully integrated into the nation of Israel, no doubt each joining a tribal unit by choice or by marriage.
Then, too, when Israel left Egypt, a "mixed multitude" went out with them, having seen the awesome works of God in the ten plagues. Exodus 12:38 says,
37 Now the sons of Israel journeyed from Rameses to Succoth, about six hundred thousand men on foot, aside from children. 38 And a mixed multitude also went up with them, along with flocks and herds, a very large number of livestock.
These still had a long history of idol worship, so their carnality tended to cause trouble (Numbers 11:4). Nonetheless, they compare with many new Christians who form the church in the wilderness in the Age of Pentecost. The Apostle Paul had problems with their carnality (1 Corinthians 3:2), and the situation has not change to the present time.
By the time the nation of Israel reached the Jordan River, the mixed multitude had ceased to be a factor, for by this time the next generation had been fully integrated into Israelite life and culture. And so when Joshua gave the inheritance to each tribe, there was no separate inheritance given to the mixed multitude.
So Israel's population increased, largely because they were greatly outnumbered from the start, but also in part because of the mixed multitude that joined them in their journey as the church in the wilderness. So also we see the parallel situation after the day of Pentecost in the New Testament church.
Paul himself fought for equal rights and status in the Kingdom of God, not allowing Jews to refrain from eating with non-Jewish believers (Galatians 2:11-15). Likewise, Peter had received a vision from God telling him not to call any man common or unclean (Acts 10:28). On account of that vision, Peter preached the word to Roman soldiers, who then received the baptism of the Holy Spirit (Acts 10:44). The lesson that Peter derived from this incident is given in Acts 10:34 and 35,
34 And opening his mouth, Peter said: "I most certainly understand now that God is not one to show partiality 35 but in every nation the man who fears Him and does what is right, is welcome to Him.
Paul took it a step farther when he argued that the true seed of Abraham are those who follow his example of faith (Galatians 3:14 and 29). In making his case, Paul makes use of the common metaphor of his day. Mark 3:17 says that James and John were "sons of thunder." Likewise, Jesus said that "wisdom is justified by her children" (Matt. 11:19). Luke 16:8 speaks of the "children of light." Jesus said in John 8:44, "You are of your father, the devil." Even back in the days of Samuel, the sons of Eli, the high priest, were called "the sons of Belial" (1 Sam. 2:12).
None of these were to be taken in a physical sense. Those who linked their relationship with God to their genealogy from Abraham did not impress John the Baptist either, for he told them in Luke 3:8, "do not begin to say to yourselves, 'We have Abraham for our father,' for I say to you that God is able from these stones to raise up children to Abraham."
In the Old Testament, God gave Abraham many "children of faith" as seen in the 318 warriors born in his household. The mixed multitude coming with Israel out of Egypt were also children of faith, because they were part of the church in the wilderness. So also in the New Testament we see people from other nations coming to the place of faith in Christ, and these too are "children" of Abraham in that same sense.
This forms the context of Moses' statement about the seventy persons who had become a multitude by the time Israel was ready to enter the Promised Land.

Month: April 2015
Europe: no continent for small and agile operators?
While the 6th of May – the day when the European Commission will deliver its well-expected "Digital Single Market" Strategy – is approaching, there is a considerable traffic jam of leaked documents anticipating the draft that will be finally and formally adopted.
Remarkably, one of the previous versions of the incoming communication explicitly referred to the contribution of "small an agile operators" to the achievement of the Single Digital Market. Surprisingly, this passage is no longer present in the current version, which has been sent within the Commission's offices for a short internal consultation.
The previous draft was the following (pag.8):
"[…] Our overall goal is to keep our markets competitive while offering legal certainty to market players with a set of clear rules. An effective market structure would combine companies present in many or all Member States with smaller, more agile operators. […]"
Instead, the latest draft only includes following aspects (pag. 7):
"[…] The Commission will present proposals in 2016 for an ambitious overhaul of the telecoms regulatory framework focusing on […] (ii) delivering the conditions for a true single market by tackling regulatory fragmentation to allow economies of scale for efficient network operators and service providers, […] (iv) incentivising investment in high speed broadband networks (including a review of broadband obligations in the context of the Universal Service Directive) and (v) an effective regulatory institutional framework. […]"
Thus, small and agile operators are not relevant any longer. One should ask whether the Commission really wants to put all the eggs in the basket of big, rigid and inflexible operators …
In the reality, the discrepancies between of the two drafts reveal the difficulties that the Commission shall overcome in order to find a well-balanced draft. The Commission has been strongly lobbied by these who would like to sacrifice competition in order to favor (potential) investments, and the other who believe that competition is a prerequisite for the investments themselves. The current draft does not seem unbalanced, in the sense that it reflects the different degrees of achievement of competition and broadband roll-out throughout Europe and call for adequate and coherent intervention. This said, keeping as reference to small and agile operators would have been a great signal for the European industry, since small operators and SME are a big part of it. By contrast, this opportunity seems to have been missed for the time being.
Will Google ever become a (virtual) mobile operator?
Latest news reported that Google is negotiation an agreement with Hutchison Whampoa permitting to the US company to launch a mobile service worldwide charging the same for calls, texts and mobile data regardless of the customer's location. This seems to be a disruptive entry of the OTT industry into the exhausting discussions about the abolition of roaming surcharges. More recently, Google announced a wider mobile strategy named Project Fi, aiming at providing mobile at a connectivity in more than 100 countries int he world. Commissioner Oettinger, some one who cannot be seen a Google's friend, welcomed the initiative claiming that the move of Google may be seen as an incentive to close rapidly the discussion about the end of roaming.
One could wonder what could be the real aim of Google in this area. By getting wholesale access from Hutchison (or from any other mobile operator), Google may become an MVNO (mobile virtual operator) and start to operate like Virgin Mobile in UK, Postemobile in Italy, Numericable in France, Telenet in Belgium ecc. However, this scenario seems not realistic per se, because of a few simple reasons:
– the MVNO business is regulated exactly as a telecom business, and I wonder whether Google may be really willing to become part of this complex regulatory environment. Better to remain in the OTT world instead;
– profitability and margins in the mobile sector are decreasing in general. A MVNO must be very efficient to get a positive result because – in the absence of mobile access regulation – the cost of the wholesale mobile agreement is unilaterally decided by the mobile telco (Hutchison in the Google's case) providing access;
– the roaming business is going to decline in any case, in the EU and abroad, because of a regulatory and economic trend worldwide, although at different speeds (you can still make some good money in some part of the world, but how long?). Therefore, today in 2015 it is too late to enter this market. Roaming tariffs still exists just to separate national markets and avoid cross-border competition, while the absolute margins are becoming negligible for the overall business of a mobile operator. MVNO can make still an interesting business if they are efficient, however such margins are likely much lower than margins of online advertising.
Thus, Google's objective in this area may be somewhere else. More likely, the move of Mountain View can be seen as the irresistible rise of OTT services over connectivity, with the latter becoming a simple commodity with a value destined to decrease over time.
In fact, operating as an MVNO (and thus becoming a regulated player) could make sense only if the envisaged business is more sophisticated than providing mobile connectivity. Google could think to bundle its platform and services with connectivity in various forms, in order to reflect the market trend whereby search and video are migrating from fixed to mobile. This strategy could be reinforced by Zero-rating tariffs: in other words, Google mobile users would have a preferential price to access service supplied or simply hosted by Google. Net neutrality supporters wouldn't like, however.
This overall business strategy may however rise antitrust concerns due to the dominance position of Google in some markets.
A way for Google to avoid telecom regulation, and maybe to minimize antitrust concerns, would be to operate as mere airtime reseller, i.e. offering to users a package of mobile data connectivity everywhere and getting a commission fee from the mobile operator. Since the connectivity service would still be formally provided by the mobile operator selling the airtime, Google would not become an MVNO, and it would escape telecom regulation. That kind of business may be combined with the commercialization of Free-sim mobile devices, as Apple is also considering to do it.

TORONTO (AP) - Evander Kane scored twice, Jack Eichel had a career-high three assists and the Buffalo Sabres beat Toronto 3-1 on Saturday night to hand the Maple Leafs their sixth loss in eight games.
Sam Reinhart also scored for Buffalo, and Robin Lehner made 43 saves.
Mitch Marner scored for Toronto, and Frederik Andersen allowed three goals on 23 shots.
The Maple Leafs went on a tear from mid-December until late January, taking 24 of a possible 32 points over a 16-game span, but they have since stumbled. Toronto is holding onto the final wild-card spot in the Eastern Conference with 61 points in 53 games.

Recapture Your Vision: Savor Life
Doesn't that salad look good?
Last year I had the fortune of traveling to Marseille, France to work with some friends who are connected to a group that helps people who are relocating.
One night they took me to a local restaurant, La Crepe Au Carre', my friend said, "You have to eat this salad, it will change your life." His comment threw me off a little because, I thought you go to a crepe place to eat crepes. He insisted that I try this salad, and I did.
Take a look at my image of it. It is a toasted brie and almond topped salad made with fresh, local greens, and local cheese. The dressing was reduced balsamic vinegar with a hint of strawberry. As the waiter placed the salad in front of me, a warm, sweet, aromatics of the dressing, the toasted cheese and almonds stimulated both my imagination and my appetite. As one of my old Georgia friends would say, "That looks almost to eat pretty.
Well, I ate it. And I consumed that delicious blend of cheese, nuts, and greens in a slow, deliberate manner. I felt like I had a Mardi Gras in my mouth. My friend's words were true; it did change my life. That wonderful evening of food and fellowship, a time of savoring food, and hearing about the work that God is doing in people's lives never gets old.
To savor something is to taste or smell it. It means to linger over or dwell on.
Having traveled a little bit in Turkey, Israel, Jordan, and France I get a little frustrated at how fast we live our lives in America. Fast food, constant connectivity, speed dating, always rushing. While I would never trade off the blessings of living in this great country, I am reminded, at least when I travel that there are times that we need to slow down. Times when we need to break bread with friends and family. Times when we can intentionally savor our relationship, our blessings, and yes, delicious food.
One of the easiest tools we use as we continue to look at ways to regain our vision and overcome depression is to savor pleasant memories; past answers to prayer; a meaningful Scripture verse; and positive, meaningful words spoken to you. When we purposely reflect and meditate on these types of good, positive things, our brains begin to move toward health.
Take a few moments and think about it.
Let me know if you "like this article"
Experience Gratitude
"Count your blessings, name them one by one. Count your blessings, see what God has done…" are words from a hymn I remember from my childhood while attending the First Baptist Church of Fort Valley. It is an old song with modern psychological and spiritual implications.
G.K Chesterton said, "Gratitude is happiness doubled by wonder."
"Can you see the holiness in those things you take for granted–a paved road or a washing machine? If you concentrate on finding what is good in every situation, you will discover that your life will suddenly be filled with gratitude, a feeling that nurtures the soul." — Rabbi Harold Kushner
Gratitude makes your life happier and more satisfying. When we feel gratitude, we benefit from the pleasant memory of a positive event. In addition, when we express our gratitude to others, we strengthen our relationship with them.
An exercise called the Gratitude Visit will help you experience relief from depression.
Close your eyes. Imagine the face of someone still alive who did something or said something that changed your life for the better. Got a face?
Your task is to write a letter (handwritten) to this individual and deliver it in person. The letter should be concrete and about three hundred words; be specific about what they did for you and how it affected your life.
Once you have completed the letter, call the person and let them know that you would like to visit them, but be vague about the purpose of the meeting. This type of exercise is more fun when it is a surprise. When you meet with the individual, take your time reading your letter. Notice their reactions as well as yours. If they interrupt you, gently tell them that you want them to listen until you are done. I promise you that you and the recipient will be much happier and less depressed.
Of course, if you cannot hand deliver the note, mail it, but follow up with a call.
Added Monday morning
My pastor, Todd Cook, Senior Pastor of Sagebrush Church in Albuquerque, shared a message Sunday on Psalm 90. One of the quotes I took away was, "If God leads you to it, he will lead you through it. Here is a link to the message, Boom Box if you want to hear it all. It was timely. Warning: this my be a little "out of the box" for you.
You can find this and more tips in my book Get a Grip on Depression. Obtain a personally autographed copy from me. In Albuquerque, you may pick up a copy at the Sagebrush Church bookstore, or order a copy through Amazon/Kindle.
Recapture Your Vision by Pushing Back Depression and Negative Thinking
Have any idea what this photo is? It is actually a hood ornament with clouds and sky in the background. Your perspective can mess with your head from time to time.
I love being an entrepreneur, it can be a bit chaotic at times, but one of the things that keep me going is vision. Whether you have a job, are self-employed, in school or involved in a vocational quest you need a vision. An idea of what you want to end up with when you have done the work.
I was reviewing some notes from reading I have done over the years and came across a great definition of vision. Hopefully, it will help you. You see, where there is no vision, no dream, no hope, there is little life. When you are depressed, the vision can become muddled.
Here is a definition: Vision is a precise, clearly defined goal with a detailed plan and timetable for achieving that result.
Just to be clear, you can have a vision for your business, your body, your relationships, your health, pretty much anything. One of the problems is that most people have wishes, but no vision-based plans.
When you lose that vision, the joy of living becomes replaced with the mere act of surviving or just getting by. You move from joy to subsistence to depression and ultimately to despair. Personally, I do not know anyone who aspires to despair.
The good news, gaining a clear picture, a vision of what you want and what you are willing to do to get it can be a tremendous energizer. Particularly if it honors the Lord and serves man.
So, if you are having "Vision Issues," here are some things you can do to push back the negative thinking and depressive feelings,
One of the things that happens when we experience set back is a tendency to suffer from the "paralysis of analysis," which can be a vision stealer.
Step Back from the Problem
When Thomas Edison felt stumped by a problem, he removed himself from the work area, lay down, and took a little nap. Years before the research on power napping was available, he understood the importance to stepping back from a problem to get a better perspective. Taking a break from the problem can lead to a fresh perspective.
There are ways to put this principle into practice.
1. Stop. Quit putting needless energy into solving a problem that isn't getting solved. Dr. John Gottman, relationship expert, says that we need to focus on what is fixable, not on past failures.
2. Do something completely different. Choose to swim, go for a walk, take a break, call a friend, pray, read the Bible. It should be a repetitive activity that gets your undivided attention and absorbs, redirects, and gives you energy. Ten to twenty minutes is usually enough time to reset.
3. Observe what happens about the issue when you return your thoughts to it.
Here is a question for you. Are you caught up in the "paralysis of analysis" or are you Stepping Back from the Problem to clear your head? I would love to hear from you. #getagripondepression #AskJohnthurman
Thoughts about Robin Williams Part #2
Laughter, Joy, tenderness, and passion are things that come to mind when I think of Robin Williams. Another attribute I admired was his ability to be vulnerable. For years he talked about his struggle with addictions, depression, and open heart surgery.
He had struggled a great part of his adult life with a brain disorder which included severe depression, which in many cases co-exists with addictions. Even with treatment, support from friends and family and remarkably successful career, mental illness can still end up killing a person.
As a Christ follower, I have been somewhat discouraged by some of the "faith-based" blogs I have seen about suicide. As a seasoned professional, I have come to see that individuals who come to the edge of the black hole of suicide are not in their right mind. Isolation, depression, and hopelessness steal the individual of their ability to look forward to the possibilities of hope and relief. I believe in a God that is at His core Compassionate, one who weeps with those who weep, one who feels sadness, and one who mourns with those who mourn.
We need to respond to hurting friends, neighbors, and relative with compassion.
Here are some facts about suicide and depression. I trust that you will find this helpful.
The following is from my book Get a Grip on Depression:
Over 90% of people who commit suicide have clinical depression or another diagnosable mental disorder. Many times, people who commit suicide have a substance abuse problem. Often they have that problem in combination with other mental disorders.
Adverse or traumatic life events in combination with other risk factors, such as clinical depression, may lead to death. But suicide and suicidal behaviors are never normal responses to stress.
Other risk factors for suicide include:
• One or more prior suicide attempts
• Family history of mental disorder or substance abuse
• Family history of suicide
• Family violence
• Physical or sexual abuse
• Keeping firearms in the home
• Chronic physical illness, including chronic pain
• Incarceration
• Exposure to the suicidal behavior of others
Warning signs that someone may be thinking about or planning to commit suicide include:
• Always talking or thinking about death
• Clinical depression (deep sadness, loss of interest, trouble sleeping and eating) that gets worse
• Having a "death wish," tempting fate by taking risks that could lead to death, such as driving fast or running red lights
• Losing interest in things one used to care about
• Making comments about being hopeless, helpless, or worthless
• Putting affairs in order, tying up loose ends, changing a will
• Saying things like, "It would be better if I were nothere" or "I want out."
• Sudden, unexpected switch from being very sad to being very calm or appearing to be happy
• Talking about suicide
• Visiting or calling people to say goodbye
• Prior suicide attempts (According to the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention, between 20 and 50% of people who commit suicide have had a previous attempt)
What you can do if you have suicidal thoughts:
• Talk with trusted friends, family members, or others you respect who can assist you
• Talk with your doctor, mental health professional, or pastor. Many times, talking eases or removes suicidal urges. In some cases though, hospitalization is necessary until a sense of balance can be restored.
Call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-273-TALK (8255) or a local hotline to speak with a crisis counselor.

Here is an ancient thought that could provide encouragement.
Psalms 40:1-3 I waited patiently for the LORD; he inclined to me and heard my cry. He drew me up from the pit of destruction, out of the miry bog, and set my feet upon a rock, making my steps secure. He put a new song in my mouth, a song of praise to our God. Many will see and fear, and put their trust in the LORD.

This is the third and final blog of the 10 steps for Surviving a Rough and Tumble world. Here is a quick review of the first seven.
1. Practice optimism.
2. Find a resiliency model.
3. Develop a moral compass and unbreakable beliefs.
4. Practice generosity and kindness.
5. Develop acceptance and cognitive flexibility.
6. Face your fears and learn to control negative emotions.
7. Build an ever-expanding tool chest of active coping skills to manage stress.
8. Establish and maintain a supportive social network to help you.
Dr. George Bonanno's research, in his book The Other Side of Sadness, points out one of the ways that people and cultures move beyond trauma, depression and other life events is through community, family, and other networks of people that give us courage, motivation, and shared history to move forward. His research also reveal how important family, friends, and community are in dealing with depression. Learn more about this is my book, Get a Grip on Depression.
Hebrews 10:23-25 - "Let us hold tightly without wavering to the hope we affirm, for God can be trusted to keep his promise. Let us think of ways to motivate one another to acts of love and good works. And let us not neglect our meeting together, as some people do, but encourage one another, especially now...(NLT)
9. Stay physically fit. One I need to work on. Dr. Oz suggests starting out with walking 30 minutes a day. It is a start.
1 Corinthians 6:19 - 20 - "Don't you realize that your bodies are the temple of the Holy Spirit, who lives in you and was given to you by God? You do not belong to yourself, for God bought you with a high price. So you must honor God with your body." (NLT)
10. Laugh deep and often.
Whether it be some "Old School Comedy" like the Three Stooges or more modern comedians like Steve Harvey or Robin Williams, be sure to find something or someone that can help you keep life on the light side.
As sad as the loss of Robin Williams is, his humor and zany impressions, and his care for people will live on through the volume of work that he created over his life.
Proverbs 17:22 - "A cheerful heart is good medicine, but a broken spirit saps a person's strength." (NLT)
Author Ben Sherwood, The Survivors Club, was surprised when Dr. Charney shared the most-surprising insight of his career is "the hidden capacity most people to rebound from adversity."
One ancient Latin phrase says it best, Plus estem voius." There is more in you than you know. Lean into life today.
My next three part series will include some thoughts about depression in men, Robin Williams, and practical things you can do to help someone who is struggling with depression.
Avoid 6 Stinking Thinking Traps
6 Thinking Styles to Avoid
by John Thurman
Have you ever noticed how quickly your mind can get distracted? Things seem to be just fine and then out of nowhere you begin to have these intrusive, negative thoughts? Thankfully, it is a problem nearly every human being experiences from time to time.
Today, I am going to give you a quick overview of the Top Six "Stinking Thinking" patterns that I address in my book, Get a Grip on Depression. I will also give you some key questions to ask as well as practical things to do to lower the impact of these negative thinking patterns.
Here they are:
Jumping to conclusions: Being confident about the situation despite having little or no evidence. Action Plan:Slow down: Do I have any evidence to show I have been wronged or am I jumping the gun?
Mind Reading: Assuming you know what the other person is thinking, or expecting him or her to fully understand what you are thinking. Action Plan: Speak Up: Did I express myself fully, so the other person didn't need to try to read my mind? Or did I ask for information from the other person rather than attempting to read his or her mind?
Me, Me, Me: Believing you are the sole cause of every problem. Action Plan:Look outward: How did others or circumstances contribute to my current situation?
Them, Them, Them: Believing other people or circumstances are the cause of every problem you encounter. Action Plan: Look inward: How did I control or fuel my situation?
Always, Always, Always: The belief that adverse events are unchangeable and that you have little or no control over them. Action Plan: Grab control: What can I change? What can I influence?
Everything, Everything, Everything: Thinking you can judge a person or your own worth, motivation, or ability on the basis of a single situation. Action Plan: Look at behavior: What specific behavior explains my situation?
2 Corinthians 10:5 ...we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ. (NLT)
For a more in-depth look at these patterns as well as some scriptural stories that illustrate them check out pages 77-93 in Get a Grip on Depression. Also available at Amazon and Kindle.

As of now, i have rooted with the newest Unrevoked and got a bunch of tools like rom manager, titanium, Autostarts, etc. Now i'd like to try flashing... but not necessarily a new rom. Just a different kernel than stock if possible. So my questions are... -Can you just flash a new kernel to the stock 2.2 froyo rom. -If so, which are recommended? Right now i think i want to experiment with some UV ones to try to figure out how to get longer battery life. -i read that P3Droid are supposed to be good for battery conservancy... but which one? their site P3Droid Kernels has a bunch to choose from and im not quite sure which would be good for me. My SetCPU autodetected that my max cpu freq is 998k, so am i safe in just getting the one set to max 1000 from P3D. What min? low voltage or standard voltage? thanks in advance

The Problem
Our facial skin is always exposed, meaning it is more likely to feel the effects of the sun, pollution and general signs of ageing. Brown spots or uneven skin tone on the face can leave even the most pampered complexions looking older, while sun damage or scarring can make it feel seemingly impossible to achieve a healthy glow.
Laser resurfacing is one of the most innovative ways to rejuvenate damaged skin, tackle signs of ageing and even out areas of discolouration in as little as 20 minutes per session. Addressing pigmentation, age spots, sun damage, acne scars and wrinkles, the method restores a refreshed appearance on the face and neckline without the need for excessive downtime.
Wrinkles and fine lines start to appear as early as the mid-twenties, but surgery and strong anti-ageing treatments aren't suitable for many of those unhappy with their skin. Laser Resurfacing provides an ideal solution to restore the skin in a minimally-invasive way.
We have been recommended on TATLER Guide for Beauty and Cosmetic Surgery.
The Problem
Our facial skin is always exposed, meaning it is more likely to feel the effects of the sun, pollution and general signs of ageing. Brown spots or uneven skin tone on the face can leave even the most pampered complexions looking older, while sun damage or scarring can make it feel seemingly impossible to achieve a healthy glow.
We work with two main resurfacing treatments; Pixel laser and Pearl Laser – chosen because of their noticeable results and flexibility around different lifestyles.
Pixel Laser
Pixel Laser uses a high-energy beam to take away the epidermis and upper dermis layers of damaged or ageing skin, stimulating the body's natural healing process and new growth in the area. As the laser is only targeted at specific areas, unblemished skin is left untouched meaning less invasion and better results.
The nature of the treatment means it is suitable for most skin types, with the vast majority of patients achieving full results after completion of a course. *
Pearl Laser
The latest generation of skin resurfacing treatments, Pearl is a single session laser method that targets lines, wrinkles, sun damage and uneven skin tone without lengthy downtime or a delicate recovery period. Like Pixel Laser, the treatment is ablative meaning it targets the surface layer of skin and the method is available in three different forms:
- Pearl Laser Resurfacing
- Pearl Fractional Laser Resurfacing
- Pearl Fusion
The three different treatments allow practitioners to create the most tailored experience for your skin's needs and achieve the best possible outcome. Each patient's requirements are entirely individual, but Pearl Laser Resurfacing is normally most suitable for finer wrinkles and damage, while Pearl Fusion is a much deeper treatment for more active rejuvenation on damaged skin.
The Results
Skin appears completely rejuvenated and revitalised with a noticeable improvement in tone and texture, and a dramatic reduction in the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. Signs of sun damage are reversed, while discolouration is blended for an overall even complexion and less imperfections. The face and neck appear more youthful, and many of our patients comment that they no longer need excessive anti-ageing creams.
Pixel laser results are permanent, but normally most noticeable after a course of treatments. Patients who undergo Pearl Resurfacing will normally see results after one session.
Depending on the treatment, full recovery will take between 5 and 8 days.
Each treatment requires very little downtime and it is possible to return to work straight after a session, though some patients do prefer to spend a day or two at home.
Price starts from £500 and we can treat targeted areas, as well as provide full coverage to the face, neck and decolletage. Price may vary depending on the area and the number of treatments needed. Find out more here.
"I'm so pleased with the results and it is really life changing for me!" *Nicole Hopkirk, Former Managing Editor, MSN Health
"I just wanted to say thanks to you all for being such a great team and for making me feel at ease from the start to finish on the day of my procedure. I was really nervous, but you all made me feel much more comfortable with your warm and friendly approach. I would highly recommend you to anyone and can't wait to see my final results!" *Birmingham - May 2015
"So impressed, extremely professional, extremely friendly, lovely set up. Felt so relaxed and at ease, would more than highly recommend The Private Clinic and I'm considering having other procedures in the new year. Thank you!" *Catherine, Leeds - July 2015
"Thank you so much. Everyone was so friendly and caring. Could not fault anything. I have already recommended the treatment to everyone." *Bristol - July 2015
"I am 100% satisfied. Great doctor and staff. The results are amazing. I feel like a new person. You have the WOW factor!" *Manchester - August 2015

Now with 100% more Spec-C
So with both throttle bodies and both manifolds in front of me, I sat down and used CAD to think up an adapter solution. I could have chosen to have the JDM manifold welded up or modified to work, but I really wanted a plug and play solution that required no welding/cutting/grinding of the manifold or the throttle body. My thinking was that this solution might be useful for other doing this swap and perhaps I might sell this solution in the future. For those curious in the alternative, Amroof had his manifold permanently adapted by welding on a new mounting plate and it turned out really nice.
This is what I came up with: A two adapter plate method. In a nut shell, one plate mimics the hole pattern of the JDM manifold and the other plate mimics the hole patter n of the USDM DBW TB. The two plates share coming holes between them to join the two together. Together, they provide enough offset to prevent the DBW TB from hitting the manifold.
I also designed the plates so that the two could be mounting in several different orientations relative to one another so that the TB could be clocked for various turbo/fitments depending on setup (it's not uncommon for the DBW guys to rotate their TB 180 degrees for larger turbos).
The setup uses factory gaskets for all three joints with only minimal modification to the middle gasket between the two plates (adding 8 holes). This ensures a leak free system without expensive custom gaskets or messy sealant.
Here is the base plate that attaches to the JDM manifold:
Bolts added (low profile hex key bolts):
Plate lifted off the table so you can see how the bolts fit in the counter-bores. At this point, the plate would be mounted to the JDM manifold, but mine is at the powder coater, so use your imagination:
Gasket for sealing between the two plates. I used a DBW TB gasket and added 8 holes for the next set of bolts (the radial pattern around the center hole).
Top plate added. This plate mimics the hole pattern of the DBW TB (outer four holes).
Bolts added to fix the two plates together. Notice how the two plates could be roatate or clocked at 45 degree increments relative to each other.
A DBW TB gasket installed to seal between the TB and the adapter:
DBW TB installed:
(Sorry for the bad picture)
Another shot. I made the TB plate smaller so that there would be no issues plugging in the sensor plug. But the manifold plat needed to be larger/longer like that to cover and block off the secondary idle air controller passage on the JDM manifold:

Lisa has revealed that the sexual issue she's experiencing with Andrew is in the area of his wanting to be tied up and thrashed.
"But that's not the problem, of course," she says.
Now, you shouldn't read anything into this, but my first thought was, "How did he manage to raise the subject of having such a desire?" I put this question to Lisa.
An offhand shrug. "Oh, it just came up," she replies.
I try to relate to this statement. ("Jenny? We need some milk, and the TV licence is due, and I'd like you to hog-tie and flog me, and ... erm, did I mention the milk?") I fail.
Just move on, Sean: it's probably a London thing. "Well," I say, "the bottom line" (a terrible image squeals into my mind at this point. Move on, Sean) "is that you shouldn't feel you need to do something you're unhappy with, whatever it happens to be."
"Oh," she says, "doing it is fine." (It's hard to see from the grammar on the page, but out loud, there was the clear implication of multiple past tenses here. I fought off another hail of images.) "The problem is only doing it."
"Only doing it? What do you want to do as well? What could you do as well, for that matter? Andrew doesn't even have a free hand."
"No, no. I meant it's the only sex he wants. It has to be like this every time ... or he's not really interested at all. That's the problem."
Finally I understood. Now I saw the real issue I was, obviously, a little disappointed in Lisa.

We hear this in the field constantly… a server begins experiencing difficulty or somehow acts "different"… and the first thing we hear is usually something along the lines of "no changes were made!"
Truth be told, there is only one time when no changes are being made on your server… when it's turned off. And even that is questionable.
…but you haven't even logged into the server? FYI, just because you aren't doing something with your server doesn't mean it isn't doing anything. Memory is being managed… files are being created, updated, deleted… indexes are being updated… files are being transferred… files are being scanned for viruses… backups are being run… network connections are being used… policies are being updated… users are being authenticated… logs are growing… all while you were in Tahiti on your vacation. Oh… and don't forget that other person you gave the Administrator password to the other day? Yeah… they deleted some critical file and didn't tell you. They also installed utilities, deleted several log files (to make more space of course), made a critical system change, updated a registry key (without checking to find out if the change they made was supported), visited 5 websites (including one that requested permission to run a program… with a virus), and installed a hotfix… which obviously made them too busy to tell you that they made some serious changes to your server.
Oh… by the way… your Active Directory administrators pushed down an updated group policy that added additional security settings on key files… and your AV solution decided to download new signatures (which decided to flag your primary application executable as a virus and block access).
The point is, your servers are constantly changing. Every second of every minute, while you're sipping your mai tai in Tahiti, your server is working, making people happy, exactly as it has been told to. It has also logged all of that data that you never clean up into the temp folder on the C drive… and it's using the paging file that you've configured on the C drive… and it's saved that CD ISO to your desktop (on the C drive)… so when it crashes because it can't make the page file any bigger to accommodate the 10 more users that have made crazy demands of it… don't blame Microsoft or the server. It was doing exactly what it was supposed to do.
The question is, were you paying attention? Did you have monitoring? When you deployed that new web part and then configured it into your master page so that it appears on every single site in your environment… did you load test it first? Did you ensure that what works fine with 1 user also works fine with 1000 users? At the same time? Over the course of the day? When you're updating your enterprise search indexes? When you're unknowingly being scanned by the other enterprise search product you didn't know was crawling your entire site?
Servers are constantly changing, as is the workload they're trying to do and the environment they're operating in. When they can't keep up with what we're asking them to do, it's our jobs to keep an open mind, to understand what might have changed (even if we didn't change it), and understand the relationship between what failed and what might have changed.
Just because you didn't change your server doesn't mean it's the same today as it was yesterday.

When Is Okay To Fart In Front Of My New Girl?
Of the many embarrassing things we try to conceal from our partners, passing gas is probably the most awkward. So when is it okay to start breaking wind in front of your partner? I have friends who hot box their partners under the duvets and think it's "hi-la-ri-ous"; they're about one in 15. For the rest, it's an intimacy we'd rather not share. Yes, a decade of togetherness leaves few bodily illusions, but then it's even more important to hold on to some mystery – so do your best to keep your emissions to yourself. If one slips, laugh it off, apologise, and change the subject. And if she accidentally lets one go? You didn't hear or smell or see anything. Understand?

The Voice of Corporate Finance
Mexico is emerging as a key new marketplace for US natural gas, as government-backed reforms open up the country's energy sector to foreign investment for the first time in more than half a century. ICIS energy market experts have highlighted this trend with the launch of a new report focused on Mexico.
Mexico could import up to 13% of current daily US production by the end of the decade, as pipeline projects currently under construction or planned over the next five years will give Mexico up to 10 billion cubic feet per day in natural gas import capacity.
This gas will be used to supply Mexico's rising industrial demand as well as a fleet of new gas-fired power plants which form a key part of the 40GW in new generation capacity Mexican authorities are seeking to develop through to 2025, almost doubling existing capacity.
"The Mexican energy market is set to become the most dynamic for energy investment in the Americas, providing an exciting new opportunity for gas and power companies from 2016 onwards," says James Fowler, editor of ICIS' new Mexico Energy Report. "International companies are expected to be at the forefront of the markets expansion, as up to $100bn in foreign investment is sought through the next five years to cover Mexico's soaring gas and power demand."
Private and international generators are expected to play an increasingly prominent role in both the gas and power sectors, which will open up from 2016 onwards. New wholesale gas and power markets underpinned by private companies are expected to emerge thanks to open access and unbundling legislation currently being implemented.
To tie in with the emergence of these new markets, ICIS, the leading provider of pricing and market information on power, gas and the global liquefied natural gas (LNG) markets, will launch a new report covering Mexico's natural gas and power sectors.
The ICIS Mexico Energy Report is the first English-language publication to focus exclusively on Mexico's emerging gas and power markets, providing news, analysis and commentary on a fortnightly basis from 6th May onwards.
The report will also contain project updates and pricing information relevant to the Mexican market, including regulated prices set by the Mexican government, and a calculated natural gas forward curve.

According to a 2007 Ipsos study, 50% of all women have sensitive eyes.
So, La Roche-Posay have now come along with a mascara, whose formula claims to be 94% natural, to help make life easier on those stressed-out peepers.
The new "'Respectissime Ultra Doux' Natural Defining Mascara for Sensitive Eyes" comes out of 3 yrs of research from the French face experts, offering comfortable application, wear and removal of the formula, making the mascara suitable for people usually intolerable to wearing it.
The brush (which I consider the most important part of mascaras, even over formula most of the time) is described as having "ultra-supple bristles encased in extra-fine nylon" which "caress" the lashes.
All sounds very enticing, but what does this translate to in simple terms???.....
It's lovely to apply! It actually feels soft and cushiony on the lashes when being applied thanks to the ultra soft precision bristles.
The formula itself is very creamy and packed with conditioning ingredients like;
*Argan Oil; to protect & condition
*Shea Butter; moisturising & nourishing
*Glycerine; for smoothness
*Purified Mineral Pigments; for colour intensity
*Natural Waxes & Gums; to volumise & curl
*Natural Emulsifier System
I have been using it over the past couple of weeks as my day-time mascara and really do agree with all the official jargon on the product. It's extremely comfortable to apply and wear, very soft on the lashes and has a lovely super black formula that offers natural definition to the lashes while also providing volume & curl to the hairs.
See the mascara in action in the pictures below.....
|One coat of the 'Respectissime Ultra Doux' Mascara on the left, no product on the right.
(Lashes were not curled before application)
|The Mascara on both eyes, one coat.
I would definitely recommend this to anyone who usually shies away from mascara due to discomfort or irritation, as well and anyone who is just looking for a nice, new, conditioning mascara to try out.
It's available from all La Roche-Posay stockists now

Wow. As a metalhead, I tend to only check out the heavy metal here on Newgrounds. I realized I was probably missing out on a lot of quality music so I went ahead and clicked on this and I am glad I did. This is incredible work. Every bit of it sounds so clean and professional. You have thoroughly impressed me.
Your comment means a lot to me! It's really cool to impress someone who's into metal. Thx alot ;)

[Reader's POV]
Comfort. That is all you're feeling right now. It was one of your favorite feelings. Sadly you couldn't stay in bed forever which you wished that it was possible. It was unlikely due to the responsibilities you have. This one morning you don't want to move at all. Your body ached and was sore from training and a night with Peter.
"baby girl,you have to get up.." Peter's voice making you stir in your peaceful slumber.Your body being shaken lightly.
"Five more minutes…" I mumbled snuggling against the warmth he body produced. He felt so warm and cozy. The warmth lulling you back to sleep.You gladly welcomed sleep till Peter opens his mouth again.
"You have been saying that every time I try and wake you up" his chest moves as he laughs.
"shhhh, just stay with me and we can make up a practice session later.. Please Peter, I'll make it up to you if you stay with me all day today.." Your leg moving up to his waist pulling him closer. A whimper slips out as you feel how hard he is. You look up to see his eyes a shade darker. His eyes gazing at your lips, his tongue darting out quickly. His lips crash down onto yours in a passionate kiss pulling your body against his.
"darling, fuck" he groans gripping onto your ass tighter. You slowly push your hips again creating a needy friction.The tight grip he had on you made you moan in his ear.
"P-Peter " you gasp out as his lips leave a path down your neck. The feeling making your eyes flutter shut. You straddle him feeling his cock press against your clothed core. A whimper escaped your lips as you pressed your hips against his. The rocking motion earns you a slap to your ass. His hand coming down against your ass each time you moved your hips.
"god your ass is so red" he moans gripping your tingling cheek in his hand. His hot breath fans across your neck making you shiver. You begin sucking on the base of his neck. A moan slips from Peter's lips as you turn his skin red.
"You're so sinful it could bring a holy man to his knees… and you darling always bring me to mine" He tears your panties off causing you to frown.
Stupid Spider strength..
"Peterrrr those were my favorite" I pout rolling us over and pushing him off of the bed. A thud signalling he fell onto the floor. His head pops up from the edge of your bed making you laugh. His curls messy making him look cute and sexy.
"I'll buy you new ones babe" he laughs standing up walking away. Sitting up on my elbows I look at him heading to the door. Is he seriously going to leave you here?
"You're just going to wake me up, tease me then leave?" My voice coming out flustered. He closes the door locking it ,seeing that made your eyebrow raise. A smirk appears on his lips as he slips off his sweat pants. His Calvin Kleins showing a print of how hard he really was.
"Karen turn on the Don't Bother Us Program, then you can turn back on when I say so" Peter speaks to the ceiling.
Your sleeping quarters at the Avengers HQ was styled like an apartment so you and Peter could feel at home. A fancy apartment but it still reminded you of Queens. Tony had windows project sounds and views so it was practically a home away from home.
"Turning on Don't Bother Us Program,engaging soundproof walls, be safe you two" Karen's voice then turns off. You hear a beep signaling she was offline.
"You think I was just going to walk out of here to practice, rock hard and leave my girl flustered?" His voice getting lower as his strides bring him to the edge of the bed.Peter's figure radiated dominance as he looks down at you.
"I-I" You were the stuttering one now. Peter is the one to normally stutter but once in the bedroom hes completely different. It was a good different.
"I told you that you could bring a man to his knees,that only man will be me" Peter's hands grip your thighs pulling you to the edge.My skin felt like heat and fire under his palms. Your chest rising and falling slowly. He spreads your legs lowering himself down to his knees. The eye contact between you two not breaking at all.
"P-Peter.." his name coming out as a gasp. Feeling his tongue slowly licking between your folds. His thumb starts rubbing your clit in small circles. A loud moan comes out from the sensation. His thumb is then replaced by his tongue as he inserts fingers inside of you. Your nails dig into the sheets as you look down at him pleasing you.
"C'mon babygirl, tell me what you want" His hot breath fanning across your core.
Feeling your stomach tightening as his tongue flicks faster. Arching your back as the pleasure travels in your body. He slid another finger in as your thoughts started jumbling together. Curling his fingers inside you hitting your g-spot when he makes a come hither motion.
"M-more please , I want your cock inside me Peter" you beg as your legs started to twitch. Desperation clear in your voice. The look in his eyes making you on the edge about to cum.
Flicking his free wrist his web shooter expands onto his hand. A web pinning both your hands to the headboard. His chest rose and fell quicker as he gazed at your body. You looked helpless tied up to the headboard. A groan coming from him as you spread your legs , inviting him to you. You wanted him more than ever.
"How bad do you need it" He smirks crawling onto the bed. Your eyes screwed shut while his hand slid up your legs. His hips lowering down towards where you needed him most.
"S-so bad Peter, please baby" you manage to moan out as his lips pressing kisses in between your breasts. Slowly moving back up to your neck. You gasp as he slams into you without warning. The feeling of him inside you causes you to bite our lip.
Peter's lets out a low moan tilting his head back. All you wanted to do was to touch him but you were restrained. Peter's hands dug into your hips as his pace started to pick up. Uncontrollable moans came out of your mouth. He filled you up just right making you pant out his name.
"Look at how your tits bounce as I fuck you" His head tilting back, his veins in his neck showing. Holy fuck. You feel his hands move as he angles your hips up. The new angle making a loud moan come out,he went even deeper hitting the right spot. Grunts coming from him as he continued to pound into your dripping pussy. Thank god for the sound proof walls, you were loud when it came to expressing the pleasure you received. Peter loved hearing you thats why he had the system installed.
"P-Peter untie me please I w-want to touch you" your voice coming out as a whisper. You felt out of breath as you looked down. Watching as he filled you up with each thrust.
"I love seeing you like this " he whispers running his finger down your chest and down your body. Your breath hitching in your throat.
"Under my control, only I can give you pleasure like this.." he whispers as his thrust becoming slower. Panting you try to rip his webs apart with your nails. All you want to do is touch him and run your fingers through his soft curls.
"You can't get away from me,you wanna know why?" he grins cockily. Bastard knows his new web formula is tougher. His body gets closer to you if that's even possible. Feeling your hands become free your hand grips onto his curls. The other scratching down his back. He hisses from the pain as your nails dig into his skin.
"Cause you're my girl" his hand cups your cheek as he thrusts into you harder causing your head to hit the headboard.
"You're mine, you got that princess?" His hips slam into you harder and harder. Nodding as a reply you keep eye contact with him. The pleasure feeling so intense you felt like you were going to burst.
Peter tugs on your hair letting out a low growl. "Let me hear that pretty voice, answer me" he demands kissing your jaw in fiery kisses.
"I'm y-yours Peter, please let me cum" your moans and whimpers filled the air as he reached between you rubbing your clit in fast circles.
"C'mon darling, cum for me cum all over my cock" Moans come out of his mouth as his thrusts start to get sloppy. The stamina he had in him had you breathless. Your orgasm causes you to hold tightly onto Peter. Your legs trembling as it coursed through you. Him filling you with his load shortly after, collapsing on top of your body.
Peter rolls over pulling your body next to his. Your chest was falling up and down. Both of you were panting trying to catch your breath. Your body could just melt into the mattress,exhaustion taking over you.
"Karen, please start the shower and play some AC/DC for me" Peter speaks up a bit due to his voice being shaky from his breathing.
"Turning on the shower, Peter you lasted a lot longer than you did the last time should we mark it as your new record?" Karen asks waiting for a response.
He was keeping track of how long he could last?
"Peter Benjamin Parker" you sit up looking at your boyfriend. His cheeks turning pink as he sits up.
"Babygirl I-"
"You're seriously keeping track?" You laugh placing your head in your hands. He is such a dork.
"Y-You're not mad?" He questions tilting your chin up.
"Now I want to see how fast I can make you cum and start my own record" you grin sitting up heading toward the bathroom.
"I already have a record for how fast I can" Peter stands crossing his arms over his chest with a grin.
"Looks like I have to beat you, next time who ever loses has to clean the training rooms next week" you challenge looking back at him.
"Oh it's so on, you're going to cum and beg for me like always" he lifts you over his shoulder towards the shower.
"PETER!" You scream out as he starts to tickle your sides. From serious to childish, what a catch.
Peter is sweet in the street but a freak in the sheets.©
