According to the World Health Organization, chronic exposure to high concentrations of these particles increases the risks for cardiovascular and repository diseases, as well as lung cancer.
The Wall Street Journal reported today that much of northeastern China remained under a shroud of heavy smog, which again forced the closing of roads, schools, and a major airport, for the second day in a row.
On Monday, Harbin, a city located in the Heilongjiang province approximately 657 miles northeast of Beijing, reportedly reached 1,000 micrograms per cubic meter of health particles known as PM2.5. According to the World Health Organization, chronic exposure to high concentrations of these particles increases the risks for cardiovascular and repository diseases, as well as lung cancer. On Tuesday morning, air-monitoring stations reported a maximum air-quality index of 500, which eased by early evening. The readings are extremely rare by U.S. standards and typically occur during events such as forest fires.
Remarkably, China's Ministry of Environmental Protection said Tuesday the northern region of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei held the worst air-pollution ranking in the third quarter, with air quality below China's government standards 62 percent of the time. Beijing and the industrial city of Tianjin are located in the Hebei province.
The Wall Street Journal further reported a spokesperson for the city of Beijing's environmental protection bureau blamed Harbin's recent buildup of air pollution on poor weather patterns rather than on the start of the winter heating season, which began Sunday. The Chinese rely on coal burning to generate heat. However, Beijing's city government considers cement and steel industries the heavy polluters, as well as car emissions. Beijing has imposed limits on car purchases and plans to control the cement and steel industries.

It's a product from the famous European make up brand, Essence, which proposes mid quality stuff (not pro but neither poor) for the cheapest prices around. I tell you, the cheapest. This product is called Nail Art Express Dry Drops and does exactly what it says: right after you applied your nail polish, apply one or two drops of this product (with its dropper applicator) and in one minute the stuff is going to be dry, period.

In heart failure, the heart is unable to pump the right amount of blood throughout the body. This causes blood to back up in the veins. Depending on which part of the heart is affected, this can lead to a buildup of excess fluid in the lungs, feet, and elsewhere. Heart failure can worsen with time, which may lead to the use of many treatments. Because of this, doctors are aggressive in treating heart failure to try to prevent it from worsening.

The Walking Dead vs…. Me
Hey, here's a funny one for you. It's Monday morning, the day after the next-to-last episode of the second season of The Walking Dead aired on AMC, and I'm writing something about the show without having seen that episode. If you're reading this AND you saw the show last night, you might have one on me - below, I'm gonna promise to watch at least the last two episode of this season, and you'll know even before I do what my reaction's gonna be. So read on and enjoy your little taste of foreknowledge.
The television adaptation of The Walking Dead has bothered me ever since the end of the 5th episode of season one, when the group of survivors went into Atlanta and walked into the CDC. At first, I thought my problems with the show extended from the fact that the show's producers were deviating wildly from the plot of the comic book series, of which I've been a fan for maybe seven years. As the CDC story arc panned out and the season came to an end, I was a little irritated that Shane was still alive and that they'd gone into Atlanta as a group - two things that simply didn't happen in the comic. You can see some of my thoughts on these topics in this review.
That said, I still found the show interesting, the characters compelling. And I trusted Bob Kirkman enough to wait him out. Even the comic goes through rough spots, but he always leaves me both devastated and satisfied.
By the time the second season started, I'd forgiven the deviation from the original. One thing I DON'T like is hater fan boys who turn their emo faux-intellectual noses up on anything that claims to draw from a source material they're already familiar with, even if the adaptation is good. And… since I don't care much for people like that, it concerned me that I was thinking in those terms.
Ordinarily, I don't: I LIKED Zach Snyder's Watchmen movie, even if it wasn't as earth-shattering as Alan Moore's original comic. As much as I like Philip K. Dick, I think the movie Blade Runner is waaaaay better than Dick's Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?
Also, as the Walking Dead survivors came across Hershel's farm, with Shane somehow alive and no sign of the awesome comic book character of Tyrese ever showing up, I was still starting to become intrigued with the conflict Shane's presence was creating. I started thinking, "You know, this is interesting. This is something that must have occurred to Kirkman AFTER he killed Shane off in the original. He's exploring a 'what if' that he can never go back to in the comic, and he and the show's producers and writers are doing a great job of it. This is pretty good, if not great, television."
So I watched. I forgave some hambone, asinine scenes like "Glenn in the Well" and "Andrea's Crotch Grab" and "Only Otis Knew Who Exactly Was in the Barn." And the tension between Shane and Rick grew - exacerbated in good measure with Dale's distrust of Shane and Hershel's misguided authority over them all.
Now I'm 11 episodes in, and I grow weary, and I'm wondering why I'm increasingly less enamored by such a critically-acclaimed, highly regarded series. I went to Facebook last night, and there was a scatter-shot of "Holy crap!" and "That was intense!" and "OmiGod!" from my Facebook friends regarding the episode which had just aired. I'm sad, because I haven't felt very excited by the show for the last three episodes.
Before writing this, I sat down for a while and tried to figure out why, and I think I've got it.
It has nothing to do with the deviation from the original, although the deviation DOES contribute to what IS wrong. It has nothing to do with the occasionally shoddy writing. (What was up with that scene between Carl and the stuck zombie last week? Carl's not stupid, and they've been teaching him how to hold a gun.)
Very simply, it's this: with only two ironic exceptions, I don't LIKE any of the characters very much. And in a character drama - which is what The Walking Dead essentially is - that's a problem.
Specifically, I think they're all coming across as weak, or if they ARE strong, as douchebags. I KNOW I'm not supposed to like Shane, but I'm tired of not liking him - I want his soulless evil to come to a head, please. And I want him to die when it does.
Trouble is, I also think Carl's a bit of a douchbag, too. As is Andrea, and in a weird sort of way, Carol.
On the flipside, there are the weak characters. Lori Grimes is little more than wasted space. Maggie's fun to look at, but she hasn't done much beside give Glenn grief. Hershel's other family are non-entities whom I assure you will eventually get killed. As for Glenn and Hershel, well, think about it: Glenn was the brave go-to guy when they needed runs into Atlanta, but he's freaked out by runs into the sleepy town near Hershel's farm? Three episodes ago, Hershel was a patriarch of strong convictions and resolve, but now he's deferring to Rick and soaking his sorrows in booze? Really?
And Dale. Well, Dale's a whiny bitch, and if he were really concerned about Shane's evil, he would have put a bullet into Shane's chest and been done with it. Except he's a whiny bitch and couldn't.
And finally, there's Rick. For those of you who haven't been with Bob Kirkman and his character of Rick Grimes for seven years, let me tell you - the conflicts Rick feels WITHIN himself are essential to what makes The Walking Dead comic book work, and some combination of Andrew Lincoln's inability to convey those conflicts effectively as an actor, as well as the hit or miss material he's been given to work with, leaves something to be desired.
In fact, all of the acting, though initially powerful, has become - in a word - tedious. You could make a drinking game out of it. You have to drink every time Rick looks off into the distance as if considering something important. Drink every time Shane turns his head away in that certain manner he uses and says something despicably profound. Drink every time Carol tears up. Drink every time Glenn gets that hang-dog look on his face. Drink every time Andrea does something with a pistol besides shoot it. Drink every time Dale flares his hairy-ass nostrils and starts to pontificate.
The only characters I'm not tired of are T-Dog and Daryl. And here's some irony (or IronE if you know what I mean): they aren't even characters in the comic series. They're new. They're deviations. And I still like them.
Which brings me to part of WHY I think my displeasure in the show is stronger than other people's, and why people who haven't read the comic might not feel the growing disdain I feel with the TV show personas. You see, in the comic book, I LOVE these characters. I've already said that Rick's internal conflicts drive the book. It's powerful stuff, and I don't think it's as evident in the show.
Additionally, there are things going on with Carl in the comics which would blow your mind - and they're only hinted at in the show. Andrea is a BADASS without being such a bitch. Dale is still a conscientious guy, but he has a backbone and a heart of gold that makes you love him. Glenn is essentially the Glenn of the first season, without all the worry. He's also funny.
And Shane is dead.
I've decided that I'm going to watch the last two episodes of this season despite my misgivings, and I'll keep watching next season if these last two episodes can convince me to like even ONE of the characters I don't like now (or at least kills a few of them). Like I said, you might already know if this is the case or not, based on last night.
I'll probably watch that episode either tonight or tomorrow, and I'll let you know.

This past Saturday, after their final concert as the opening act on the KISS/Motley Crue tour, Thin Lizzy have announced that they're retiring the band name and are moving forward as Black Star Riders.
After touring the past few years as Thin Lizzy, the lineup adopted the new band name last fall to start recording a new album with a clean slate, and out of respect to the legacy of the late Thin Lizzy bassist/vocalist Phillip Lynott. Singer Ricky Warwick said in a statement, "To have spent the last 3 years being part of such a fantastic legacy has been amazing. I would to thank all of you out there for your past and continued support. And of course Mr. Phil Lynott for letting me stand beside your shoes, you have taught me so much."
Lynott, whose last years were dogged by drug and alcohol dependency, died of pneumonia and heart failure due to sepsis in January 1986. He's always been a favorite of mine, (and a HUGE inspiration as a singer/bassist) and I recently visited his statue in Dublin Ireland
During his SXSW concert last Thursday night in Austin TX, rapper LL Cool J has confirmed that Eddie Van Halen is among the guests set to appear on his forthcoming album, "Authentic." The Van Halen News Desk website also confirms the collaboration which will be released April 30, and also ran two recent photos posted by Eddie Van Halen featuring the pair in the studio.

Really love this conditioner, makes my hair feel soft and smells great, my hair is very processed and dry from being in the sun and pool, this has made my hair a lot softer.
I thought the bottle and cap were awesomely designed. Actually took a while in the shower for me to figure out how to open the bottle, but when I did i had a moment of "Ooohhh cool!"
I didnt particularly like the smell. its very perfume-y. But the texture was nice. I havent used it enough to really see a difference but I will keep trying. Its decent.
This conditioner totally does what it claims. I have color treated hair that was very damaged but after using this along with the shampoo, my hair has transformed in a matter of 6 months.
Same with the shampoo and repairing mask, I was not super impressed with this Carol's Daughter line. I've tried Hair Milk in the past and thought the Monoi line would be better based on the reviews, but neither did much for me. I felt like my hair was on the drier end while using these products and I didn't even finish the bottle! Would not purchase again. There are better products out there.
Carols Daughter has the BEST haircare products I have curly damaged hair from heat and color and when I went blonde and started using this product my hair was in better condition than it was before I dyed it. I dont even have to put a serum for defrizzer, this product leaves my hair silky smooth, shiny, strong and does not fall out when I brush it.
This product is stellar. I have always been on the hunt for the perfect condition. My search is over. It is thick and leaves my hair super shiny and manageable.
This conditioner does exactly what it advertises! Within a week of using it I noticed that my very-dry, very-colored and very-thick hair was making a complete texture turnaround! It leaves your hair feeling very luxurious without giving it a filmy residue or greasy sheen.
I use this product on clients with curly/ wavy hair. I love it because I don't have to fight the hair after setting and drying. My clients leave my chair feeling great and next to no frizz. Use the three piece set and you'll be glade you did.
I don't like the fact you can't use it on everyone. I have kinky curly hair and it didn't do much as far as dryness was concerned. I felt a little bit of a difference but nothing for change my routine.
so if you have straight to a medium curl you'll love it. Anything after that keep looking.
I love how this smells, but it seems I need A LOT of it to get my hair untangled and soft. Maybe it is the shampoo... but I just don't like how it leaves my hair feeling. I had high hopes because I feel its affordable for the amount.
I love this brand and this conditioner is no exception. The smell is ridiculous and it really works to reduce breakage. My only complaint is that if you really long hair, it does not help to reduce tangles as it is a little thin. However, my hair is always really soft after using this product.

Eine herzliche Hommage an Dizzy Gillespie, Arturos Mentor und Freund, der ihn und seine Familie von einem bedrückenden Dasein in Kuba buchstäblich rettete und ihnen eine Chance auf ein völlig neues und besseres Leben gab.
Das Album enthält eine Sammlung von Klassikern aus Gillespies Arbeit, eingebettet in Bigband- Arrangements. Das Augenmerk liegt auf den Elementen des Bebop, einem wichtigen Bereich des legendären Trompeters, der den Ton für die Musik seiner Zeit mit beeinflusst hat.
Mit von der Partie sind Jazz-Größen wie Vibraphonist Gary Burton, Saxophonist Bob Mintzer, Organist Joey DeFrancesco, Klarinettist Eddie Daniels, Saxophonist Ed Calle, Schlagzeuger / Produzent Gregg Field unter anderen.
Product Information
Arturo Sandoval Pays Tribute to Dizzy Gillespie with Dear Diz (Every Day I Think of You)
Co-produced by Latin Grammy "Producer of the Year" Gregg Field who also performs as a guest artist; Features vibraphonist Gary Burton, Yellowjackets saxophonist Bob Mintzer, organist Joey DeFrancesco, clarinetist Eddie Daniels as well as some well-placed surprises including – actor Andy Garcia on percussion and vocalist Manolo Gimenez.
In May Arturo Sandoval will release his second album on Concord Jazz, Dear Diz (Every Day I Think of You). Dear Diz (Every Day I Think of You) is Sandoval's tribute to Dizzy Gillespie, the mentor and friend who literally rescued him and his family from an oppressive existence and gave them a chance at an entirely new and better life. The album is a collection of classics from Gillespie's massive body of work, each framed in big-band arrangements that throw the spotlight squarely on the elements of bebop that underscore so much of the iconic trumpeter's work and set the tone for the music of his era.
Backing Sandoval on the project is a crew of top-shelf jazz artists: vibraphonist Gary Burton, Yellowjacket's leader saxophonist Bob Mintzer, organist Joey DeFrancesco, clarinetist Eddie Daniels, saxophonist Ed Calle, drummer / producer Gregg Field and several others. Also along for the ride are a couple of unlikely but well-placed surprises – actors Andy Garcia on percussion and vocalist Manolo Gimenez. The resulting set is, as Field puts it, is Sandoval's "love letter to an old friend."
The set opens with Gillespie's voice, introducing a young Arturo Sandoval as "one of the young grand masters of the trumpet" during a live performance in the late '80s. What follows is a contemporary re-construction of Gillespie's signature "Bebop," arranged by 2012 Grammy-winner Gordon Goodwin. Goodwin, whom Field calls "The most interesting voice in contemporary big band writing," is also responsible for the fiery arrangement of "Salt Peanuts!," which features Bob Mintzer on tenor sax, Gary Burton on vibes and if you listen closely you'll hear Sandoval friend Joe Pesci joining in the band vocal. "This is such a perfect example of Gordon's genius," says Field, "of his ability to take something that is so familiar to jazz musicians and fans and completely rework it."
Dizzy's "Birks Works" is rechristened here with the tag "a la Mancini," thanks to the contributions of saxophonist Plas Johnson, who famously recorded Henry Mancini's iconic Pink Panther theme nearly 50 years ago. Album pianist Shelly Berg's arrangement utilizes alto flute, trumpet, tenor sax and strings – all of which further evoke the Mancini sensibility.
"Con Alma," arranged by Grammy-winner Nan Schwartz, includes a classical-string quartet arrangement that's a very beautiful thing," says Sandoval. "This tune has been recorded many times, but I don't think it's been recorded quite this way before. The string quartet gives the song such a fine, elegant sound."
The exotic and impassioned "Tin Tin Deo" features vocalist Manolo Gimenez , supported by Mintzer on tenor sax, by actor Andy Garcia on percussion, Wally Minko on piano and Joey DeFrancesco on organ – all carefully balanced in an arrangement by Dan Higgins. The album closes with an eleventh track, "Every Day I Think of You" a poignant, string-infused ballad by Sandoval that serves as the coda to this heartfelt tribute recording. Propelled by Sandoval's stirring vocals, the track veers completely away from the big band vibe that precedes it, opting instead for something much more intimate, understated and personal. "I really mean every word of that song," says Sandoval. "Dizzy encouraged me so much. He opened so many doors for me and showed me so many opportunities that I would not have had otherwise."
At the heart of Dear Diz (Every Day I Think of You) is the bebop groove that Gillespie spent a lifetime exploring and refining, says Sandoval. "When it comes to bebop, you either know it or you don't," he says. "There's no halfway. If you're going to be a good bebop player, you really need to be a hell of a musician with a lot of skill and a great education and a great command of your instrument. This is what Dizzy was all about. He wasn't just a trumpet player. He was an innovator and a creator. That sense of innovation and creativity that he brought to every note he played is what inspires this recording and everyone who plays on it. In that sense, he's still very much with all of us. I do think of Dizzy every day."

From advances in SPF to celebrity faux glow secrets, we show you how to get and care for perfect summer skin.
By Loni Albert
Sunscreen 101
How much is enough? Choose a formula with no less than SPF 30. Slather one tablespoon over your face and about a shot glass worth of lotion or foam over your body. Reapply every two hours and after swimming.
Protect Your Pucker
Rising temps mean dried out skin and lips. Hydrate your pout with a moisturizing lip gloss or lipstick and always remember to top off your look with a layer of balm containing SPF 15 or higher.
Ouch! You're Sunburnt. Now What?
The best thing to do is pop an aspirin (to help with inflammation), smooth on aloe vera, and wear loose-fitting cotton clothes and undies. Synthetic fabrics will irritate your burn.
Click here for more at-home remedies for sunburns.
Drink Smarter Water
Sipping on eight glasses of water a day has a multitude of benefits that include glowing, healthy skin. Kick the benefits up a notch by adding a drop or two of an antioxidant-enriched tonic to fight free radicals and early wrinkles in one go.
We like Dr. Brandt Skincare Detoxifying Anti-Oxidant Water Booster in Goji-Maqui, $39; amazon.com.
Scrub Your Way Smooth
For your silkiest skin ever, try this DIY exfoliator from celebrity makeup artist Joanna Schlip. Mix one cup of sugar with half a cup of olive oil and scrub in circular motions from neck to toe. Allow the mixture to soak in for at least five minutes before rinsing off.
Easy Eye Brightener
Summer barbecues and happy hours mean lots of cocktails and late nights. Banish any dark circles with a soothing, brightening eye cream. Opt for a pocket-sized concealer with an easy-to-apply brush to erase dark circles on the go.
We like Olay Total Effects 7-in-1 Anti-aging Eye Cream Line and Dark Circle Minimizing Brush, $19.99; amazon.com.
Cut Back on Cocktails
Speaking of drinking, imbibing even one less serving of alcohol a day will make a noticeable difference when youre looking at the scale or staring in the mirror. Alcohol dehydrates skin (this causes wrinkles) while inflaming tissue (hello, puffiness). Prevent this by watering down wine and liquor with club soda and alternating alcoholic beverages with glasses of water.
Remember That Sunblock Expires
The leftovers you have from last summer arent going to cut it! Load up on a fresh supply of sunscreens, lotions, and sprays before each bikini season to ensure that you have the most efficient protection.
Avoid a Makeup Meltdown
When the mercury rises (and humidity levels soar), loading up on moisturizer, sunscreen, and makeup can lead to a slippery mess on your gorgeous mug. Use a multitasking primer with SPF to cut out extra steps and leave your skin with a soft, dewy feel.
We like Mac Prep and Prime BB Beauty Balm SPF 35, $30; maccosmetics.com.
Get Shady
Theyre more than just glam accessories. Those Jackie O frames can cover up to 30% of your face, which provides extra coverage from UV rays around your sensitive peepers. Plus the less squinting you do, the less likely you are to develop crows feet.
SPF Makeup Is Not Enough
Its great to have extra protection from your SPF-laced bronzer and lip balm, but the amount of sunblock you actually need is far more than a subtle dusting. Be sure to wear these products over a generous layer of sunscreen.
Find Your Zit Zapper
Finally, a grown-up version of the acne pads you used in high school. To clear up breakouts, pick up salicylic acid-enriched pads that also contain good-for-your-skin ingredients like argan oil to reduce irritation. In a pinch combine aspirin and water to create a paste, and apply it directly to your blemish.
We like Josie Maran Blemishes R Gone Argan Acne Clearing Pads, $28; amazon.com.
Make a Balancing Mask
To fight last-minute inflammation, Richa Purohit of KeSARI beauty suggests applying a thin layer of cold yogurt over your face for five minutes in the morning. The probiotics will cool skin and help restore a natural pH balance to your mug.
De-Clog Your Pores
Humidity, sweat, makeup, and pollution can build up in your pretty little pores, causing them to look like dark blemishes. To clear them out, steam clean your face over hot water, cleanse as usual, and then splash with cool water to tighten your freshly-washed face.
Summerize Your Skincare
You lighten up your wardrobe with linens, cottons, and bright colors, so why not update your beauty routine, too? Switch out any oil-based lotions and makeup in favor of noncomedogenic day creams that also contain a healthy dose of SPF.
Add Avocado to Your Salad
One of the most beautifying foods, avocados contain healthy fats and vitamins C and E to keep skin plump, vibrant, and hydrated. Slice one up and keep it in your work fridge for an easy meal-booster.
Get a Spa Glow in Seconds
Look for spa-approved fast masks to get the benefits of a facial without a trip to the salon. Ingredients like hyaluronic acid, alpha hydroxy acids, and reseveratrol slough off dead skin cells while plumping up fine lines.
We like Sonya Dakar Flash Facial, $95; sonyadakar.com.
Cool It
Stash a face toner or mist in your poolside cooler to calm stressed-out skin in a hurry. After a long day in the sun, one spritz will soothe irritation or set your evening makeup without smudging your dolled up face.
We like Kiehl's Rosewater Facial Freshener-Toner, $16; kiehls.com.
Hide Your Sunburn
Opt for a tinted moisturizer, suggests celeb makeup artist Tamara Palumbo of boutique makeup brand, Piret & Tamara. Its more healing and moisturizes better than a cream or powder foundation. If extra coverage is needed, gently tap concealer over blemishes to spot treat unevenness.
Glisten Up
Eye-catching highlights arent just for your hair or face. Beyonces makeup artist adds a pinch of bronze shimmer to body oil and applies it to her arms, legs, and shoulders for all over sexy iridescence.
Be Smart About When You Put on SPF
If you try to work around your bikini or mini skirt when slathering up with SPF, you may miss a spot! Apply sunscreen before you dress to maximize your sun protection and allow your skin to soak up sun blocking ingredients before UV exposure.
Invest in A Magic Wand
For touch-ups when you travel, try a multipurpose highlighter stick that's packed with skin-softening vitamins and nutrients. The solid consistency is aces for airport security checks, making it the perfect item to stash in your summer weekender bag.
We like Nars The Multiple in Orgasm, $39; amazon.com.
Brush It Off
Use a dry brush once a week for extra exfoliation and to increase circulation for brighter, smoother skin. Always follow with a rich lotion to seal in moisture and prevent flakes.
Smooth Out Cellulite
Most cellulite-fighting creams only offer a temporary solution, but who wouldnt want to look more toned, even if just for a few hours? Slather on a firming lotion with caffeine for a quick fix. Amp up the effects by using a rolling pin to smooth over pesky bumps.
Hit the Gym (or Park)
Even in the summer months, exercising is essential for better skin because it increases the flow of oxygenated blood to your face and helps your body release toxins. Just be sure to shower immediately after sweating up a storm to avoid body breakouts!
Snack on Watermelon
Munching on water-filled fruits and veggies, like watermelon and cucumbers, keeps you and your skin hydrated, while enriching your diet with vitamins and anti-oxidants that will enhance your complexion.
Get Your Glow On
Even Jennifer Lopez has admitted to faking her signature bronze. For an easy, daily faux glow, simply mix one part self tanner with two to three parts moisturizer and apply every other night before bed.
Catch Lots of Zzzzz's
And we dont just mean at the beach! Not only does sleep deprivation cause stress, which leads to breakouts and a sallow complexion, it deprives your body and skin of the time it needs to regenerate and recover from your daily activities.
Avoid Product Overload
Piling on too many skin-perfecting potions and lotions can cause irritation or cause active ingredients to cancel each other out (yes, this does happen). When in doubt, bring your arsenal to your dermatologist and ask her to narrow down your routine to the most effective essentials.
Soothe and Balance Redness
Heat is one of the biggest triggers for rosacea and flushed cheeks. Use a moisturizer with a subtle green-tint to neutralize redness, and look for skin-soothing ingredients like radish and ginger root to find your best match.
We like Dermalogica Ultra Calming Redness Relief SPF 20 Lotion, $43; dermalogica.com.
Don't Forget Your Neck and Chest
Adopt a skincare tip from European beauties, like Vanessa Paradis, and remember to slather up your neck and chest with skincare products. The skin here is just as exposed to the sun and elements as your face and is even more delicate. Always extend your serums, creams, and sunscreens down beneath your collarbone to help prevent early signs of aging along your lovely décolleté.
Clean Your Makeup Brushes
In the hotter months, bacteria is more likely to grow and build up in your kabuki and blusher brushes, causing breakouts and clogged pores. To prevent this, lather them up with gentle shampoo every three weeks, rinse clean, and dry overnight on a sheet of paper towel.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Flyfishguy Lost without it.
After fishing and guiding for many years with a heavy fully loaded vest and trying to remember where this is or that was, I have fine tuned my tackle needs for moving and still water. I fish and guide on rivers with an Angling specific lumbar pack and this lanyard. All of the necessary terminal tackle I need is at my finger tips. For lakes, I throw my boxes into my float tube storage and my lanyard around my neck and I'm set. The Alligator clip fastens to your shirt or wading jacket and keeps the Lanyard close against your chest and out of the way of your cast. An absolute essential piece of equipment.

Presbyterian Cancer Center has been awarded three-year accreditation with commendation as a Network Cancer Program by the Commission on Cancer (CoC) of the American College of Surgeons, making it one of only 30 cancer centers across the country to receive this designation.
Accreditation by the CoC is given only to those networks who have voluntarily committed to providing the highest level of quality cancer care and that undergo a rigorous evaluation process and review of their performance. To maintain accreditation, networks must undergo an on-site review every three years.
Being a network cancer program ensures that patients at Presbyterian Hospital, Presbyterian Hospital Huntersville and Presbyterian Hospital Matthews receive the same state-of-the-art comprehensive services including radiation oncology, medical oncology, surgical oncology consultation, pathology and diagnostic imaging while remaining close to home.
"At Presbyterian Cancer Center, we believe patients should have access to remarkable cancer care, no matter where they live," said Harold Howe, MD, interim medical director of Presbyterian Cancer Center. "Our CoC designation reinforces our commitment to providing expert physicians and comprehensive programming for anyone in the community with a cancer diagnosis."

Aroma of grapefruit , citrusy hops. Taste, is of course, hoppy. Good peppery finish. Mouthfeel is light , and enhanced by the drying effects of the hops. I really enjoyed this beer , although not a session beer , I could drink all night.

Aromas of wet, green hops, with cut grass, pine tassels, a subtle pepper spicing, and resinous bitter notes. Flavors are bitter forward, with a resinous background of pine pitch and subtle caramel notes, with piney, grassy, and subtle citrus highlights of lemon and grapefruit. Very well balanced and flavorful. Smooth bodied, but kept light and crisp with the carbonation. The aftertaste is resinous and bitter, and the caramel rich notes help to balance throughout. Awesome lacing left along the glass. The finish is slightly dry, crisp, and clean. Solid beer, and ridiculously easy to drink.

Pours a light copper with a nice head that laces well. Mild nose of pine hops with a citrus background. Light medium body with normal carbonation. Nice balanced hop flavor with grapefruit at the front while the pine claims the back end. Finishes clean with a slight residual bitterness of mostly grapefruit and then followed by pine. A sound beer that is well suited for those that desire a not too hoppy brew.

The beer is a clear golden amber. The beer has stronger malt smell than expected but the hop smell is not too diminished. The hops have a wet grassy smell to them and notes of pine resin as well. The taste is similar to the smell. The hops are much more grassy than the smell but still have strong notes of pine. The malt is not as strong as the smell and only slightly offset the hops with a sweet malt taste. The mouthfeel is medium bodied but on the heavy side with biting carbonation. The feel is smooth bordering on velvety. Overall, a very good pale ale and much better done than Stone's Enjoy By IPA. I'll definitely pick this one up next year.

"We never do anything,'' Carlisle said. "We've made one big deal (with the Washington Wizards in 2010) in five years, and it was an important deal -- it helped us win the championship. "But look, you (media) guys come in every year and ask a lot of questions. Everybody's tweeting everything. It's a lot of nothing, really, most of the time.'' The Mavs players hope "it's a lot of nothing,'' so they won't have to pack their bags and move elsewhere. "Everybody's worried about what the players think,'' Carlisle said. Players don't care. "These guys are big boys. They can deal with it. They know they're in a business where you know this is one of the things you sign up for." Mavs can't afford a long losing streak Starting with Wednesday's home game against the Orlando Magic, the Mavs were finishing the season with 30 games in 57 days. Meanwhile, there's one thing center Brandan Wright knows the Mavs can ill-afford to do down the stretch. "We can't afford to lose five, six, seven games in a row,'' Wright said. "If we have a five-game game losing streak it's going to be pretty much over. "We just got to come out here and play every night and focus on the things we do best and I think our play will take care of itself.'' James missed out on being honored Mavs rookie center Bernard James was scheduled to be honored this past Saturday at the All-Star game in Houston as part as the NBA Cares segment. James would have been honored for the six years he spent serving in the military. But someone dropped the ball. When several military folks went onto the makeshift stage in the Toyota Center on Saturday, James was supposed to have been on the stage with them, but it didn't happen because of a breakdown in communications. In other words, James missed his day in the spotlight. Read more here: http://www.star-telegram.com/2013/02/20/4633854/trade-deadline-not-a-concern-for.html#storylink=cpy

OTTUMWA/CENTERVILLE, IOWA -- A proposed constitutional amendment in Iowa is making it harder for government officials to limit who can get a gun and where they can carry firearms.
The proposal is not sitting well with county attorneys or county sheriffs.
Polk County Attorney John Sarcone said in a recent interview that the bill is "pro-criminal."
KTVO spoke with Wapello County Sheriff Don Kirkendall about the proposals. Sheriff Kirkendall told KTVO that he supports the second amendment, but he wants to make sure that a safe and correct process is in place so guns do not get into the wrong hands.
"The sheriffs association is kind of neutral on one at this point, but the others we oppose, such as eliminating permits to purchase, things like that," said Sheriff Kirkendall.
The proposed amendment declares the right of individuals to get and carry firearms shall not be denied.
KTVO spoke with Jeff Medina of Centerville and a member of the Iowa Firearms Coalition.
Medina told KTVO that he wants people to become more informed on the issue and not listen to all of the hysteria being reported.
"Since Iowa's shell-less law was passed last year, there has been a full year, there has been no blood in the street, there has been no bodies piled up. It has all be very civil. There has been no stupidity going on and people are just believing the paranoia," said Medina.
Polk County Attorney John Sarcone says the measure, "would be a regression to the Wild West and could create major problems, especially in the urban areas."
If the measure is put up for a vote, it would likely die in the Democrat controlled Senate.

This protected forest makes an enjoyable walk if you start early enough to catch the birdlife and morning cool. A 1km walk up from Jl Brawijaya brings you to the white entrance gate, from which a fairly level 3km track, mostly paved, runs north through the forest. After 800m the Tugu Jepang , a Japanese WWII monument, stands 100m to the left along a branch track.

As seen on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z8bmEAbIG1c I can't believe that this is the first time that I've beaten Advanced World Tournament in about three years...and I can't even play the game like I used to anymore, either. I play through the Advanced World Tournament with Kid Gohan with just one special attack and a bunch of capsules to improve my offense and defense. In case you're wondering which capsules I use (which shows up in the end of the video, by the way): Continuous Ki Blast Wave (x2) Potential Rage! Mixed Blood Power Normal Evil Tribe Uniform Special thanks to silentzorah and his GameBridge for recording the second of two attempts at beating this, which happens to be this video: http://www.youtube.com/user/silentzorah And yes, I do have both Story and Duel difficulties at their hardest. They still have their flaws...but that's for the Z difficulties in the third game are for. XD

To the Editor:
We join with the protesters of the wolf hunt and with the Ojibwe tribes of Minnesota, who have banned wolf hunting within their borders.
There is no reason for this wolf hunt.
We declare that wolf hunting is also banned on our property.

I don't understand the stool thing. Well, I understand it, but I don't understand why some women react (or should react) to it in the manner Adrian describes, nor do I understand why it's considered to be "formal" or funny. Could someone explain?
(FWIW, I prefer a basket-cloth combo to a stool)
Because you're sitting there perfectly comfortably with your purse wherever you put it and suddenly some server rushes up, plops a stool next to you, and ceremoniously places your purse on it, as if whatever you'd been forced to do with it before was doing both you and your purse the greatest dishonor imaginable. It just makes you smile.

We built our first sweatband sensor to get emotional information from autistic children outside the lab. But then one of my undergrad researchers asked if he could borrow a wristband for his little brother who had autism. When he came back, we looked at the data and saw this weird peak on one side of [the boy's] body. It turned out that was 20 minutes before his little brother had a seizure.
These bands put a tiny current through the surface of the skin at the sweatband and measure changes in that electric current. The changes show how the brain is reacting to things in a much more detailed way than, say, a heart rate monitor. Sometimes someone's brain might be reacting, but the person doesn't get sweaty or have a higher heart rate. But he or she will have increased conductance. The bands are also easier to wear than the standard EEG [electroencephalogram] cap, which has lots of electrodes.
Right now we cannot predict seizures. We also don't know why some seizures cause death and others don't. One hypothesis is that after a deadly seizure is over, the brain shuts itself down for too long. If I had a child with epilepsy, I would want to know: Is this a big surge or a little surge? It's hard to tell that just by looking. If the surge was big and the brain shut down, then I'd want to get my kid to a doctor.
Before, there was no way to get lots of seizure data unless people were willing to wear an EEG all the time. The wristband could give us that information, and then we could try interventions

Barney, go check out the film GASLAND:
it has all kinds of info on ground water contamination. Other states have been more proactive than here in Texas, where we just don't seem to expect ground water to be too good anyway. My aunt has a ranch in Schleicher county and her cattle and angora sheep have been dropping like flies. There's oil and gas all over the place and they are having the water tested. I was at a holistic management conference in March and there were several people there who had experience with ground water contamination from oil and gas wells. We do not understand enough about how water behaves under ground to say "it's safe" to inject billions of gallons of a toxic slurry down there. The concentration of these chemicals will just increase as the fresh water diminishes. It is just plain stupid.
Please tell your aunt to contact her groundwater district at 325-853-2121.
