SACRAMENTO, Calif. (KXTV) -- Homeowner George Burton wasn't expecting any packages this week, but Thursday evening his dog sitter brought in a large FedEx Kinkos Box that was sitting on his front porch. "It was addressed to me or a return address to me: my name, my address were hand-written on this package," Burton said. The package had several different addresses on it, including one from Illinois. When no one claimed it at the Kinkos on J Street, the box was sent to the return address listed as Burton's home of eight years. "We start opening it up and it's filled with that packing Styrofoam, the spray-in stuff that's hard to get through," said Burton. "We break into it, I look, and say, 'This isn't what I think it is?'" The package contained 11 pounds of tightly packaged marijuana. Burton immediately called police, who were just as surprised.

The Bachelor of Science, Interdisciplinary Studies - Social Sciences major (IDS) is available to students whose interests overstep traditional departmental boundaries; it is meant for those who wish to play an unusually active role in determining their course of study. One who completes the major earns a Bachelor of Science in Interdisciplinary Studies - Social Sciences.
Since the program is a student-designed, interdisciplinary major, course selections will vary by student. The program offers students an opportunity to devise an approved, coherent program of study with a Program Director to fulfill academic or career goals. Students in the Interdisciplinary Studies major must take courses in at least three disciplines within the major.
CWU-Pierce County offers either a 62-credit or a 47-credit major, with many course delivery options including traditional classroom, interactive television, web centric, and online classes. Additionally, both majors can be completed entirely online.
Here is what one of our students had to say about the Interdisciplinary Studies-Social Sciences major:
"My liberal arts degree has helped to open so many doors for me and it has sparked my interest in things that I otherwise would not have even known existed."

Dwight Howard free agent
Report: Dwight Howard to talk to other teams besides Lakers this summer
Apr 28, 2013, 11:59 AM EDT
The Lakers knew this when they traded for Dwight Howard last summer — under the terms of the new CBA it makes financial sense for a max player to play out his current deal and become a free agent then re-sign with the same team than it does to sign an extension to a deal…
And the campaign has begun. Well, really the campaign to keep Dwight Howard with the Orlando Magic began when Otis Smith made sweeping changes looking to upgrade the Magic roster this season by bringing in Hedo Turkoglu and Gilbert Arenas. Seeing how well that worked, some Magic fans have launched a Web Site — StayDwight.com…

text: Gay Marriage Federal appeals judges mull over same sex arguments By Ann Thompson • Aug 6, 2014 Ann Thompson / WVXU It's a waiting game now as judges in the 6th Circuit Court of Appeals mull over arguments to both overturn and uphold federal decisions in same sex marriage cases. They involve decisions in four states including Ohio and Kentucky. Nobody knows how or when the court will rule. Ohio, Kentucky, Tennessee and Michigan want cases overturned that grant the right to marry, recognize out of state marriages and allow same-sex parents on birth certificates and partners on death certificates. Same-sex marriage in Indiana could boost economy By Ann Thompson • May 19, 2014 Wikipedia In a new report, researchers say Indiana, the most recent state studied by the Williams Institute, would see an economic boost of $39.1 million to the state and local economies, should same-sex marriage become legal there. Six same-sex Cincinnati couples file suit to marry By Ann Thompson • Apr 30, 2014 Ann Thompson / WVXU Six Cincinnati same-sex couples have filed a federal civil rights lawsuit against The Director of the Ohio Department of Health and the Director of the Hamilton County Probate Court . The suit seeks to "secure for same-sex couples across Ohio the right to marry on an equal basis with opposite-sex couples." The Plaintiffs are Michelle Gibson and Deborah Meem; Heather Apple and Mary Koehler; Ronald Kastner Beck and Dave Beck; Andrew Hickman and Ethan Fletcher; Gary Goodman and Karl Rece, Jr.; and Rhonda Craig and Kendra Dukes. Judge keeps same-sex marriage recognition ban in place, during appeal By Ann Thompson & Mark Heyne • Apr 16, 2014 U.S. Government Federal Judge Timothy Black has decided Ohio's same sex marriage recognition ban will remain in place while his decision is being appealed. (meaning same-sex couples cannot go to other states, get married and have those marriages recognized in Ohio during the appeal of this case) The exception is the four couples who sued. Their marriages will be recognized and their names will go on the birth certificates of their children. From Judge Timothy Black's decision Cincinnati same-sex couples plan to test judge's ruling By Ann Thompson • Apr 14, 2014 Ann Thompson / WVXU Federal Judge Timothy Black ruled as he said he was going to, striking down a portion of Ohio's gay marriage ban that blocks recognition of same-sex marriages performed in other states.

The Canadian Press - ONLINE EDITION
Alaska towns dealing with winter's cruelty that has 1 buried in snow, 1 locked in ice
ANCHORAGE, Alaska - One town is buried in snow. Another is iced in. This year's winter is being meaner than usual for at least two Alaska communities.
Now, residents are looking for outside help.
Dozens of National Guard members are helping the fishing town of Cordova dig out from mountains of snow that collapsed roofs, triggered avalanches and trapped some people in homes.
By one count, more than 10 feet (three meters) of snow has fallen in the town of 2,000 in the last few weeks.
With high winds, more snow and possibly rain in the forecast, responders and local volunteers Monday were trying to shovel out buildings considered most at risk.
Almost 700 miles (1,130 kilometres) to the northwest, the old gold rush town of Nome is iced-in, awaiting the arrival of a Russian tanker that's barely inching along in its mission to deliver fuel.
A Coast Guard vessel is cutting a path in the thick ice of the Bering Sea, but ship crews are encountering challenges that are sometimes forcing the vessels to come to a complete stop.
All of it means that the town could potentially face a fuel shortage.
This winter, almost 15 feet (4.5 metres) of snow has fallen on Cordova, with a series of bursts that ended with a rain drenching over the weekend that added substantial weight to the snow and slicked the landscape.
The town issued a disaster declaration Friday, prompting the National Guard to send more than 70 troops Sunday. Heavy equipment, including a snow-melting machine, also arrived Sunday to supplement local resources.
"It's just been relentless, just nonstop," city spokesman Allen Marquette said Monday. "This year is just accumulating."
Some roofs have collapsed or partially caved-in under the wet snow that's at least six feet (1.8 metres) high on some buildings. So far, no injuries have been reported.
At the Coho Cafe restaurant and bar, the roof of a back shed caved in when snow from the restaurant's pitched roof slid off and hit it Saturday evening. The restaurant wasn't open and no one was hurt.
Kara White, a waitress and bartender, heard the surreal roar of the collapse. "There's no description for it," she said during a break from shovelling .
At the First National Bank branch, workers arrived Monday to find an interior wall had buckled.
Bank spokeswoman Cheri Gillian said the steel-frame building is considered structurally sound, but the bank will remain closed — possibly operating out of a nearby church — until someone can inspect it.
Meanwhile, shifting ice in the Bering Sea was making it more difficult for the Russian tanker Renda to deliver fuel to Nome.
Nome needs diesel and unleaded gasoline after a fall fuel delivery by barge was delayed by a storm. By the time the weather had improved, barge delivery to the iced-in town of about 3,500 people was impossible.
The Coast Guard's only functioning icebreaker was leading the way Monday as the two vessels moved slowly toward Nome. The 370-foot (113-meter) tanker is loaded with 1.3 million gallons (4.9 million litres) of petroleum products.
"The dynamics of things make it a pretty intense transit," Cmdr. Greg Tlapa, the executive officer of the Healy, told The Associated Press by satellite phone Monday afternoon as the icebreaker was about 111 miles (179 kilometres) south-southwest of Nome.
He described conditions outside the Healy's bridge much like the surface of the moon: nearly 100 per cent snow coverage, occasional ridging and "lots of rubble all around."
The Healy is trying to keep the Renda 0.3 miles (0.5 kilometres) behind the Coast Guard cutter as it breaks through three feet (one meter) of ice. But the ice conditions are changing constantly, and when they reach heavier ice, the path is closing between the two ships.
In those cases, the Healy has to double back to relax the pressure from the surrounding ice. The scale of the mission is unprecedented for the Coast Guard in the Arctic, Tlapa said.
The ships were originally scheduled to arrive Monday, but it's uncertain when they would arrive.
"It's slow and steady, but we're making good progress," Tlapa said.
Associated Press writer Mark Thiessen contributed to this report.

Yes, we had a terrible summer. Did we strengthen? I'd say yes, because we got rid of players who did not want to play for the Arsenal. In came some highly experienced, strong individuals who do want to play for Arsenal. Combine that with the talent we have, the young talent coming through, all the poor results plus the hunger and desire... I'd say the teams recent defensive displays have been great. If we can focus, stay together, keep a decent run going, get some luck in the draws, I feel we can do something good this season. Of course ultimately only ONE team will win the carling cup, or the FA cup (same goes to PL & CL, but realistically our chances are much lower in those than the cups for obviou$ reasons) but i feel we are really starting to gel and we certainly are still top 4 material. Its down to the Club now to perform and get the job done.
I'd be careful about knee-jerk reactions in either pole, losing or winning. Your last 4 games, since the defeat to Tottenham, have been against Sunderland at home, Marseille away, Stoke at home and Bolton in the League Cup. Granted, 4 wins out of 4 is a much better run of results than previously being witnessed but you shouldl ook at them with a degree of scepticism. Sunderland are wofeul this term and, frankly, Steve Bruce's management is an embarassment. Marseille was the biggest "hit'n'run" I've seen all season whilst Stoke have won just one of their league fixtures following a Europa League tie, plus you had a days rest on them. Botlon, are pretty poor this year. In fact, they're propping up the table at the moment. I'm not taking away aything from Arsenal here, just giving an alternative account of their form. I still think you're behind United, Chelsea, Tottenham, City and Liverpool in terms of squad strength.
Really ? so you think that losing Fab and Nasri strengthened the squad ? You might well be celebrating for strengthening when RVP goes next summer.
Arsenal are no longer in relegation form so that is a big improvement. It seems to me that the only player who is scoring for them is Van Persie. It is a bit risky to be so reliant on a player who is probably the most injury prone forward in the Prem. Arsenal have Chelsea coming up soon. Should be interesting.
I'm going to stick my neck out here a litte bit and predict not that Arsenal will lose to Chelsea, but they'll get tonked, good and proper. Torres will tear Mertsacker apart if he gets a run at him. Arsenal's midfield simply isn't up to the job of getting past Chelsea's, never mind stopping it and I don't fancy Arsenals defence stopping either of Anelka, Drogba or Torres. Neck; stuck out.
Let's not try to over analyze why Arsenal is now moving back up the table. It's one reason: RVP. Clearly Gernvinho deserves credit also, but without RVP this team would still be near the bottom. RVP looked great coming in fresh off the bench, but Chamakh proved he is just not good enough to cut it out there.
when arsene used to spend money, he won leagues. he stopped spending money on mature players and they stopped winning. this summer he brought in 9 new players. he has said he 'wont rule out' spending more in the winter, and i pressume he will be spending in the summer again. he is back to being a buying manager . i think it is generally fair to say that the ream that finnishes ahead of united will be champions, and the arse are only 7 points off. they are also at 50-1 for the league. i think it is worth at least a pound.
i might put a tenner on it, but there is a big difference between 'arsenal will put on a run and be conteders in may' to 'arsenal will finnish in first place'. whilst i am convinced the first is possible, even if it were to happen, i still think they would end as gallant nearly winners than as actual champions.

"The Ant Bully" is now available through HBO On Demand and HBO Go until December 18.
A boy, a wizard and a war--that's the basic formula for many children's adventure stories. In "The Ant Bully," as the name suggests, this story takes place in the insect world, but the bully is the boy named Lucas (voiced by Zach Tyler Eisen). This modest morality tale doesn't go for big laughs but does deal with situations that young kids will inevitably face.
Based on John Nickle's 1999 book by the same name, this 2006 feature was the first animated film produced by Legendary Pictures. "The Ant Bully" followed two better known 1998 ant-themed films: DreamWorks' "Antz" and Disney's "A Bug's Life." All three movies have messages, but are aimed at different audiences.
"The Ant Bully," rated PG for mild violence, is definitely targeted at young children--preteen kids who might feel powerless, so far outside of the adult world. In the movie, 10-year-old Lucas has no friends and is the target of the neighborhood bully. He turns his frustrations on the anthill in his front yard, causing the ants to scurry about when he floods the anthill.

What's your favorite show to listen to on FMX? Poll Time
When I'm at work the radio station is just FMX. Amazing songs with great Jocks...couldn't get any better, but I wanna know which FMX show is your favorite!

We all have our morning routines, since I don't have to be at work until after lunch my "mornings" are pretty laid back. Most days, I will log into the FMX site to see what people are talking about and to check out what sort of craziness Pops and the Heathen have caused throughout the morning.
Do you have some type of heirloom, or maybe a collectors item? Are you an antique freak or just have a really cool old concert tee? More after the jump.
Yep, I'm bringing this one up again. Most pits are fun to watch and for a lot of people they are fun to be in. There's one major problem with mosh pits though-the thousands and thousands of people who can't get close to see their favorite bands because you want to mosh. More after the jump.

Note: English CIVILICA is in its Trial Period so Full Texts can not be provided! Persian users can download it here
Author: [ Mohseni ] - University of Teheran
Three phase autotranformers or transformers with yy Connection are usually provided with tertiary winding in delta connection The rating of the tertiary winding is usually between 15% and 30% Of the rating of the main windings. The transformer is designed with respect of the short circuit impedance between the main windings. The short circuit impedancees between the tertiary winding and at least one of the main windings is very low, so that the the tertiary winding is usually not able to carry out the short-circuit current, if the supply is strong. The usage of reactors to adjust the short circuit impedance makes the transformer complicated, beary and troublesome. The tertiary winding must be checked relative to short circuit current and if it is not able to carry out this current care must be done not to set it out the dangers of the short circuit current.

Single by Small Faces | ||||

Released | 5 August 1966 | |||
Recorded | IBC Studios, Portland Place, London | |||

Length | 3:04 | |||
Label | Decca[1] (US RCA Victor) |
Writer(s) | Steve Marriott, Ronnie Lane[1] | |||

Small Faces singles chronology | ||||
"All or Nothing" is a hit song written by Steve Marriott and Ronnie Lane of British mod group Small Faces in 1966.[1]
The song reached number one on the UK Singles Chart on 15 September 1966, two weeks after being released.[1][2][3]
The song was also a major hit in both the Netherlands, where it reached number two and Ireland, where it reached number three. It was also the first song by the Small Faces to chart in the Republic of Ireland, as "Whatcha Gonna Do About It", "Sha La La La Lee" and "Hey Girl" all failed to do so.
Song information[edit]
According to Kay Marriott, Steve's mother, Steve wrote this song about his split with ex-fiancee Sue Oliver, though first wife Jenny Rylance states that Marriott told her he wrote the song for her as a result of her split with Rod Stewart. Both statements are said to be correct.[4]
The song was recorded at IBC Studios in Portland Place, London. It appears on the Decca album From the Beginning. A live version is found on the BBC Sessions album.
Following Marriott's death in a house fire in 1991, the song was played as the requiem at his funeral.[5]
The song appeared in the soundtrack for the 2010 film Made in Dagenham. Nigel Cole's film is a dramatisation of the 1968 Ford sewing machinists strike at Ford Dagenham, where female workers protested against sexual discrimination and for equal pay.
The song is used as the theme tune (over the opening credits) on the 2012 BBC UK TV series, The Syndicate, about a group of lottery winners.
The hard rock band UFO covered the song as a bonus track on their album No Heavy Petting.

It's common knowledge in the scientific field now
that big bang/evolution is completely impossible, DNS strands are no different now, than millions of years ago, but with no alternate answer, what's being taught will stay. The Aether is real, I personally have proved its existence, but so many unanswered questions remain.
Study electrical engineering, its history, and learn everything the 20 or so inventors discovered, and you will see how nature works. It's pretty understood today, that most likely, SOMEONE created the planet and sun, even if they refuse to say it was an all powerful being.
And before I get like a billion down votes for my opinion, study the knowledge yourself. I am basing this off of Electrical Engineering and Ecosystems Analysis studies over the past 150 years, this has nothing to do with the fact I am a believing Christian.
PS: If anyone want's links to some material, I can offer some to get started.

Folks, I need someone on DL17 to test for root access. Due to the small community, I haven't heard if anyone is rooted on DL17. While I can build kernels and get clockwork working for DJ20, for DL17, I need the stock kernel dumped, and for that I need root. Steps: 1. Go to Index of /files and download rage.bin. (right click, save as) 2. Copy or adb push rage.bin to /data/local/tmp on your phone. 3. In adb shell: Code (Text): chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/rage.bin Then Code (Text): /data/local/rage.bin It will give you a wall of text. Wait a few minutes, hit ctrl-c to close adb shell, then type Code (Text): adb kill-server Then do adb shell again. It should (hopefully) take you to a # prompt. Please report back. Thanks.
I shall attempt this when i get home from school Sorry for randomly leaving yesterday The update that you gave me worked! But because it worked i lost root, which made me lose wireless tether So i couldn't get on the internet anymore

It is a heavy duty wok, but it is worth for every penny. We use this wok to cook rice and deep fried stuffs. Thank you.

Cantonese woks are great for industrial wok ranges where the heat is comparable to a mini jet engine! This wok fits nicely on commercial wok ranges!!!

Put away your crocs, capris and bikinis, get out the crock-pot and trade in the convertible for an SUV… It's officially winter!
That means hot cocoa, snowball fights and ski weekenders. We all know to bring our warm clothes, our skis or boards and our boots, but what about the things you don't know about?
Monsters and Critics' guest contributor Karen V. Stevens put together a list of things you never knew you needed to make this a great mini vacay with you and your friends, family or that special someone.
Let's start at the top and work our way down:
Wearing a beanie doesn't mean you have to be one of those annoying hipsters who listens to Mumford & Sons while sipping chai lattes made with hemp milk, which by the way is delicious! But, I digress.
I tried out the new Headsweats headwear and let me just say… CONVERT!! Now, I don't condone wearing beanies in 90 plus degree weather but in the cold and the snow, it's a great thing. And, you can comfortably wear it under your helmet, which is great for those of us who love to ski but hate riding on the ski lift because it's like being a popsicle in a subzero while Jack Frost is taking a honkin' huge bite out of your nose.
So, I wore the Performance Beanie, it's made of fleece and has a band around the bottom edge which makes for a snug fit. I also fell for the Thermal Reversible Beanie in black and blue. Confession time, I love reversible clothing. It's like getting a two-fer and it makes packing easier. Hey, I think I'll go hipster black in the morning… and then bam, next hour, I'm being all cool in royal blue.
Bringing a beard to your mountain log cabin now has new meaning… you are actually bringing a beard to keep your face warm… not a "beard" to keep your face warm! Ahem!
Let's say you are on the chair lift and a gale wind hits you square in the face, or you are skiing down the mountain at 30 miles an hour you realize that your cheeks have turned into frozen apples, well the BeardSki is definitely for you.
It's a wrap-around face warmer that looks like a long beard. More specifically, it's an insulated ski mask that is lined in neoprene surrounded by a 12" long synthetic beard. It covers your ears, face and neck. The BeardSki idea came up when a group of buddies were playing poker.
Here's how I imagine that conversation went:
Guy 1. Dude my face is cold
Guy 2. You need a beard, brah
Guy 3. We should all have beards… shaving sucks
Guy 4. Pass me another brew, dude
Guy 5. Let's shred the mountain tomorrow
Guy 1. I wish I had something to keep my face warm… it's so cold on the slopes
Guy 2. Stop being such a Wuss
Guy 3. Let's make him a beard so he will shut up.
Guy 4. Yeah chicks totally dig that, look at all the chicks that love ZZ Top …
Guy 5. Hey dudes… Are we playing poker or coming up with a really cool new invention to keep warm and get chicks?
Guy 2. Buuuuuurp
Can I just say… I love the BeardSki! It really did keep my face warm and even though I looked a mite rabbinical or Amish, (depending on your religious slant) I made people laugh when I skied right by them
Beardskis come in a variety of styles and colors, my favorite is Beardski Zeke, cuz we all need a flash of red on the mountain. They run about $35.00. And I would like to add the perfect tag line for the Beardski marketers…
It's like a merkin for your face!
The world is a whacky place. So why not be whacky on the slopes….
Here's a little secret I just discovered. Halloween Costumes.com has great ski hats, seriously… I mean for reals!!
They offer whimsical and interactive hats that make you really stand out on the slopes. I mean really stand out, like… look at me everyone, I'm so cool I can wear this crazy hat and still look cool! You could wear a Grinch hat or be the Lorax or sport sexy Mouse Ears or rock the Chewbacca hat.
Can't find your friend? Just look for the Grinch coming down the mountain or the Waldo who fell in the snow bank.
This affordable head gear will keep you warm and make a weird kind of fashion statement at the same time. Plus, when you are done skiing for the day, you can still wear these hats while bar hopping… total conversation starters:
"Where's Waldo?" "On my head… can I buy you a drink"….
Who knows, maybe you can meet the man of your dreams because you have Chewbacca on your head (I guarantee that he's a Star Wars geek too).
I love the cold weather but I hate having cold ears… That is the one body part that doesn't do well in the cold. Must be because I have big ears, when I was a child my mean sister, Suzy, used to call me Dumbo!
Lucky me, there's an uber chic virtual boutique that showcases the latest undiscovered brands and up-and-coming designers. It's called Obaz.com. That's where I discovered the Three Bird Nest Knitted Bow Headband Ear Warmer ($38.00). It's a hand knitted wide headband (4.5') with an enormous bow that is probably the cutest thing I have seen in a long time.
Its uber-retro that brings back the shabby chic-ness of the turn of the century, it adds a flavor or romance to whatever après-ski outfit you are wearing. This will definitely make all the ski-shionistsas jealous and all the boys stop and stare for all the right reasons.
Sometimes a vacation means putting your hair in a ponytail cuz you just don't want to spend time with the blow dryer or the flat iron or the curlers… Am I right ladies?
That's why I think Peekaboos are a Godsend to all us lazy chicks on vacation. These cable knit winter hats have a hidden opening for a ponytail to peek out. Actually there are two opening, depending on the length of your hair. You can go high and sexy or low and sporty.
The Peekaboo hat was accidentally invented by a college student who wasn't very good at knitting and made a hole where it shouldn't have been, and voila. The Peekaboo ponytail hat is a patent pending invention of incorporating openings right into the patterns!
Peekaboos are available at: http://www.ponytailhats.com/

Having blue eyes has always made me feel special and pretty. I have always used them to my best advantage. I can look dreamy, sexy or angry. But what I can't do is deal with the glare that comes from skiing down a pristine white slope.
What they don't tell you about blue eyes is that we are very light sensitive, which makes skiing a bitch. So I can't skimp on goggles. There are really cute cheap goggles out there that I can't use because, lets face it, they suck for my light sensitive situation. There are really amazing and costly goggles out there that I can't afford unless I cash a bond.
Enter Julbo Goggles. Julbo have perfected the art of photochromic lens, you know, the magic lenses that automatically transition depending on the lighting conditions. For example, when it is bright and sunny in the afternoon the lens are dark and protective, but if it gets stormy in the afternoon they become lighter enhancing the visibility and avoiding flat light.
All of their goggles have really cool names that make you feel like the best bad-ass out there like, Meteor or Orbiter or Sniper… and they are moderately priced for winter worthy goggles; between $100-$200
I'm sure you are asking me, "but Karen, what if I don't like wearing goggles and prefer to wear sunglasses…" not to fear, grasshopper! Julbo also has sunglasses specifically designed for skiers.
Monte Biancos ($90-$190) are Mountain glasses that feature removable protective side shields (for extra protection when needed on the slopes). They are light weight and available in Julbo's Spectron 4 lens which guarantee 100% protection against UVA, B or C rays.
I love men's sunglasses! To me, wearing a man's sunglasses is like throwing on his old comfy sweatshirt before hitting the super market to stock up on carb-ladened comfort food.
Before heading off to my ski get-away, I discovered a great website that offers women the chance to buy their guys cool outdoor gear before they steal it for their own closets.
Marshern.com has everything a man could want or need or use for an adventurous weekender with the guys or the "gal". But my favorite things on this website are the sunglasses.
First off, they are cool. Secondly they are comfortable to wear and thirdly, this is the same brand of aviator sunglasses that Buzz Aldrin took with him to the moon. Did I mention they were totally cool?? I'm using the same sunglasses that were on the moon. Do I need to repeat that, people?
They are also the official USA Air Force sunglasses, so add another couple of cool points on the boards for that. And they have scratch-resistant glass lenses with 100% UV protection which is perfect for us light-eyed ski bunnies. These specs come in black, chrome, gold and silver at just $45.00 a pair, you might as well pick up all four colors.
Do you remember when you were a kid and spent all your allowance on Lip Smackers?
They made your lips look like they were coated in gooey corn syrup and smelled like a root beer float at a drive in movie. Ahhhh, those were the days. But fear not my retro-readers: Blamtastic is a new line of lip products made especially for the tween set that will make moms and dads happy too.
They are made in the USA and without any petroleum in their products, no animal testing, no artificial preservatives and have SPF 15.
Now that we got all the boring stuff out of the way, let's get to the good stuff, Blamtatic lip balms are just plain fun!! They come in a variety of flavors including Strawberry Shake, Orange Soda, Green Apple… they have cool names like Frenetic Fizz and Brain Squeeze or Ballistic Balm.
And they feel so silky on your lips. This is something you will steal from your kids and not feel any guilt! But even better than the lip balms are the clip cases that come with them. You can clip them to your purse or your pants or best of all… your ski jacket. This makes for easy usage during a morning on the mountain when you really need your lips to keep from cracking… plus who doesn't want to be kissable on the ski lift?
These little lip gems are only $2.99 each to boot.
If you skew a little older and want a lip balm that doesn't smell like a candy palace then I wholeheartedly suggest the Vault Retractable Lip Balm.
It has an SPF of 15 and it's made from Coconut oil, beeswax, almond oil cocoa butter, shea butter and Vitamin E. Sounds like a yummy lip smackin' salad dressing. But the absolute coolest thing about this product is the packaging.
This was made for being on a mountain. To open it, you push in one end of the lip balm like an injection and voila, you can moisturize your lips at any altitude without having to take off your gloves or uncap the stick. Then you just press a side button and like magic, it retracts. This is definitely one of the coolest and most useful beauty products I've seen in a while.
But if you want to protect your whole face and not just your lips (which I highly recommend) then it's time to slather on the sunscreen. Did you know there is 20% more UV radiation at an elevation of 5,000 feet than at sea level?
In other words, you can sunburn within eight minutes in Aspen as opposed to 14 minutes on the beach.
If you are like me, after a night of wild "après ski," you might forget to sunscreen up before hitting the mountain. That's why you should keep a supply of Sunscreen Swipes in your jacket for those just in case times from goadventuress.com.
These wipes are individually wrapped disposable pads that have 30 SPF sunscreen built inside.
Just open the packet, apply and have fun Plus you can reapply as the day wears on and just throw them out when you are done for the day. How brilliant is that? Why don't I come up with these ideas instead of sitting at the computer all day reviewing other peoples cool ideas??

DOWNTOWN A Dallas councilman suggests the solution to Dallas tepid tourism is to build a canal through the heart of downtown.
Let s put some water down Main Street, Councilman Dwaine Caraway says. Boom! You have tourism! You have happy folks!
The idea may seem ridiculous, but he insists he s serious.It turns out a downtown canal is something city leaders have considered as a way to revitalize the core.
It s not out of the blue, said John Crawford with Downtown Dallas, Inc, a civic group charged with bringing more businesses to downtown. It s something that has come up... and we ve looked at it seriously before.
Other cities have relied on canals to boost tourism. San Antonio s famous River Walk is what jumps to most Texans minds. Yet Oklahoma City spent millions of dollars to tear up downtown streets and alleys in the late 1990s to build a mile-long canal through an abandoned warehouse district.
The area, known as Bricktown, since blossomed and now attracts hundreds of thousands of visitors a year.
This is not a joke at all, Caraway insists. This is something serious. This is long-range vision!
Yet Crawford says after an exhaustive study, he s largely dismissed the idea of a canal. It s simply unfeasible, he says, and would cause massive traffic and infrastructure problems. The street likely isn t large enough to hold a canal, he says, and it would greatly impact some of the historic properties.
It s not practical, Crawford says.
Indeed, skeptics wandering downtown s streets aren t hard to find.
Fix the little stuff, and then get to the big stuff, said Jamie Huffman, who works downtown but lives in Fort Worth. She encourages Dallas to look to its neighbor for inspiration.
Fort Worth and Dallas are as different as day and night, she said. Dallas could learn a lot by visiting Fort Worth not San Antonio.
Caraway still hasn t lost hope. If anything, he wants city leaders discussing big ideas to solve some of Dallas lingering problems.
Let s try to be creative, Caraway encourages. It just takes a little water- we have a lot of water!
