Save Money by Throwing Out the Television
Posted By Guest Contributor On 06/04/2006 @ 2:51 am In Frugal Living | 9 Comments
This is a guest blogging post by Julie Ali.
Unlike socially unacceptable addictions such as smoking nicotine, television viewing is seen as being relatively innocuous in nature. Most parents will plop their children in front of a television screen unaware of the fatal consequences of this act. I, myself, considered the telly to be educational at best, and a great free babysitter, at worst. This state of happy coexistence lasted until about 5 years ago, when I threw out the television and committed the whole family to a telly free treatment program.
Initially, the children and the hubby were not pleased. They were negatively addicted to the idiot box and considered that I was punishing them for being male. My brother and his family were aghast at this rebellion and wondered how the children were going to survive and prosper. Several pitying comments from other relatives and friends followed but I was obdurate and persistent: the television was a drug and we would not be pushing it anymore.
5 years later, the children (and the hubby) have survived the trauma of television lumpectomy and although, they tenderly massage the scar from the surgery in their memories – they have made peace with the surgeon. It has even been a growing experience for them. They have had to find other ways to fill in the holes in their day. They have had to play, write, draw, surf the Internet and even, horror of horrors – to read books. They have had time to visit friends, bike, swim in a swimming club on an almost daily basis, go to playgrounds, search for bug matter in the backyard, visit their grandparents, study and be bored.
An added bonus, is that we are not greeted with a chorus of "I want that, I really, really want that" for every new toy, movie and gadget that is advertised on the telly. Coupled with a refusal to take the children shopping (unless it is for their September clothes and shoes), the excision of the tumor of the television has saved us piles of money. Try it in your home. Don't try to wean yourself off the telly – just throw it out. And while you are doing this surgery, throw out the Gameboy as well (and let me know how you do it – that is the next drug on my agenda).

|Campaign signs don't belong on state's right-of-way
If campaign owners haven't removed any errant signs, they will be removed.
The Nebraska Department of Roads (NDOR) reminds people it is against the law to place political campaign signs, or any signs, on state highway right-of-way. Various sizes of signs usually appear along roadsides around election time and are promptly removed.
Maintenance crews of the NDOR will remove signs that are improperly placed within the state highway right-of-way. These signs will be stored for a brief period of time in State Roads Department maintenance yards across the state, where they can be reclaimed by the owners.
This state right-of-way reminder applies to any errant plantings or harvesting operations; parked equipment or salvage items; and commercial sales or private business stands.
Those needing further information concerning the boundaries of right-of-way corridors, or seeking permit information should contact their NDOR district office, or their nearest NDOR staffed office.

Credit hedge fund firm Lucidus Capital Partners has hired a former UBS credit trader.
According to a Bloomberg article, Anatoly Nakum joined Lucidus last month to run its long/short credit strategy. In Nakum's new role, he will focus on high-yield and lower-rated investment grade debt.
Nakum, who was the co-head of credit trading for North America at UBS, left the Zurich-based bank in 2011. Nakum's past experience includes working at Barclays Capital and Deutsche Bank.
Lucidus manages about $1.5 billion in assets and was founded in 2009 as a unit of Bruce Kovner's New York-based firm Caxton Associates.

ASX-listed Arowana International [ASX: AWN] wants to raise as much as $234 million in the dual-listing of its Intueri Education Group, which will establish New Zealand's biggest private training establishment (PTE).
The Australian company plans to list an enlarged education group next month, selling shares at an indicative range of between $2.25 a share and $2.75, with the primary listing on the New Zealand stock exchange, it said in a statement to the ASX. Arowana would retain between 15 percent and 25 percent of Intueri, and needs shareholder approval for the transaction.
The offer will raise $62 million of new shares, with some $60 million will go toward paying for Intueri's acquisition of Quantum Education Group, which it bought in February, and Arowana intends to distribute some of the cash raised to its shareholders.
"While investing to develop our domestic and international student course programmes remains the priority, once listed, Intueri will be well-positioned to pursue additional growth opportunities as the PTE sector in New Zealand consolidates and we look to realise the full potential of our online education business in Australia," Intueri chief executive Rob Facer said.
Inteuri is expected to be New Zealand's biggest private training establishment by domestic students, with 6,000 local enrolments and a further 1,000 international students each year, across 26 locations. It also owns half of Online Courses Australia.
Massey University chancellor and former Landcorp chief executive Chris Kelly will chair the company.
Intueri is forecast to post annual revenue of $76.9 million in calendar 2014, rising to $86.4 million the following year, with net profit of $16.8 million in 2014 and $19.8 million in 2015. The education provider is forecast to pay a dividend of 7.7 cents per share in 2014, rising to 12.9 cents in 2015.
Before its recent acquisitions, the company reported a profit of $491,000 in the nine months ended June 30, on sales of $14.3 million, according to its latest financial statements filed with the Companies Office. Of that, it reaped $9.6 million in tuition fees, and $3.1 million in Tertiary Education Commission and youth guarantee funding.
The offer will be made up of an institutional offer via a bookbuild and a broker firm offer through New Zealand brokers. UBS New Zealand and Macquarie Securities (NZ) are joint lead managers.
Arowana's stake in the newly listed group will be held in voluntary escrow until the first day after the release of Intueri's 2015 annual result.

Janelle Monáe took to the stage with one of her idols earlier this week! For the first time, she and music legend Prince performed their duet "Givin Em What They Love" for a live audience.
The concert took place at Mohegan Sun in Connecticut, and while on stage, Prince declared Monae's video for "Q.U.E.E.N." featuring Erykah Badu the best video of the year. He added that The Electric Lady, which dropped in September, was the best album of 2013.
During a previous interview with Billboard, the 28-year-old songstress said working with Price "was an honor."
"He's been so excited about my career, and I don't take that for granted," she said. "He's a mentor to me — he does take the time to mentor other artists, not just myself. So he took me on tour with him. It was very organic for us to work together, but I know he does not collaborate with everybody that he performs with, and I don't take that for granted. And I got the opportunity to produce him, so to present the ideas and see it through, I was just honored that he trusted me."
The "Primetime" singer brought in the New Year as the headliner at Atlanta's 25th Annual Peach Drop 2014!
Check out footage from her powerhouse performance with Prince below.

Editorial: Global-warming welfare is on its way
Anticipating hundreds of millions of dollars a year in greenhouse gas fees collected from California businesses, the Legislature is planning to redistribute much of the bounty to the state's "most impacted and disadvantaged communities."
Perhaps a bill pending in the state Senate reveals the motive of feel-good legislative efforts to fight global warming: a massive redistribution of wealth.
Assembly Bill 1405 calls for 30 percent of new fees raised under global warming regulations yet to be drafted to go to a Community Benefits Fund to be used in specially selected communities, based on specific criteria also yet to be drafted.
A Senate analysis says anticipated new rules by the state Air Resources Board allow revenue from fees imposed on greenhouse gas emitters to pay for the board's administrative costs, but not for "climate-change-related mitigation activities."
AB 1405, authored by assembly members Kevin de Leon, D-Los Angeles, and V. Manuel Perez, D-Indio, would amend the so-called Global Warming Solutions Act of 2006 to require 30 percent of money raised by fees under consideration by the Air Resources Board to be "used solely in the most impacted and disadvantaged communities. . ." The 2006 law provides broadly that "revenues collected pursuant to this section, shall be deposited into the Air Pollution Control Fund and are available upon appropriation, by the Legislature, for purposes of carrying out this division."
As proposed, the money would provide "competitive grants" to reduce emissions and install equipment and "energy efficiency upgrades for schools, senior centers or low-income housing." Money collected from businesses statewide would be redistributed according to "socioeconomic indicators," including income and poverty levels, educational attainment and "linguistic isolation."
The air board is considering fees to raise about $54 million a year, restricted to paying its administrative costs. This bill begins the political divvying up of the anticipated pot of cash to be extracted from California businesses, ostensibly to curb global warming, a likely non-existent threat, which probably would be unaffected by the state's regulations even if it were a threat. Favored recipients would reap at least $18 million a year from proposed fees and as much as "hundreds of millions" if the air board imposes a cap-and-trade emission scheme.
Someone selected by politicians and bureaucrats stands to profit from millions extracted from private hands. But the economic damage far outweighs speculative benefits of curbing global temperatures, which haven't increased in a decade.

History Of Lasagna
by chocobanana
Lasagna is a wonderful food for its versatility. It's simple, filling and can easily go around large tables with plenty of leftovers. Today, lasagna has become such a mainstay that recipes for fusion lasagnas can be found everywhere. Verily, any country can apply their unique style of ingredients and cooking to the blank canvas known as lasagna. However, have you taken the time to stop and wonder the origins of America's favorite pasta dish?
If you have, then here's a brief history of the lasagna.
Modern lasagna is, of course, a by-product of Italian cuisine. There are a few theories as to how it was developed, and where the entomology of the word lasagna came to be. Like many Italian cultural and intellectual achievements, it can be traced down to ancient Greece.
Around 197 BCE the once mighty Greek empire fell at the onslaught of the Romans. This was largely in part due to the Romans advancements in weaponry, combined with their ability to emulate the special advantages of their opponents. The Romans used Greece tactics to eventual oust the empire. When Greece was successfully occupied, Rome made quick work adopting their philosophy, religion, science, mathematics, as well as its food and language. One of these newly espoused provisions was the idea of lasagna.
The main theory is that the term lasagna can be traced down to the Greek word laganon, which was a flat sheet of dough cut into strips. This term is still used in Greece to describe a thin flat type of bread. There is also lasanon, which refers to a sort of ancient crock-pot. The Romans borrowed this word and turned it into lasanum, which also means a sort of cooking pot. Therefore, the entomology of lasagna is believed to refer to the pot it was cooked in.
Another theory that helps tie modern lasagna to its ancestors comes from the 14th century English recipe called Loseyn. This recipe shares the similarities with lasagna in its ingredients being layered between pasta sheets as well as name. The major difference is that tomatoes weren't fully introduced to England until after Columbus discovered America. The earliest English recipe featuring the tomato was found in 1652.
From there, European immigration brought the delicious pasta dish to North America where it has continued to change and shift into the versatile dinner option we know and love today.

Thanks for the history lesson! I've been watching 'A Taste of History' about early American cuisine and cooking techniques. It's really fascinating to watch Walter Staib work with 18th c. style tools and ingredients.
Walter credits Thomas Jefferson with being solely responsible for making tomatoes a popular food in America. Jefferson loved heirloom tomatoes, grew them and served them to his many guests.
Here's a link to a photo on my blog that might give you a laugh (It's the 'Chocobanana food stall at a Japanese temple celebrating the blooming of wisteria):

This is a great series of one-act plays. So more serious and others comic. They covered the gamut of experiences from dealing with family, death, old age, and the marriage ceremony itself. The acting was first rate.

April 29, 2014
"Everyone's dream is to play professionally, and I am lucky enough to get this opportunity," said Hanse, a native of Marion, Iowa , and a 2013 UI graduate. "I owe thanks to everyone from my junior college days and those at Iowa."
Hanse played two seasons as a Hawkeye, pitching in 2012 and 2013. After going 1-0 with a 5.40 ERA in his first season following a two-year stint at Ellsworth Community College, Hanse went 3-4 with a 4.30 ERA in 16 appearances (seven starts) as a senior.
"My junior year at Iowa, my coaches pushed me to get a lot better and into better shape," said Hanse. "That helped me to get drafted."
Hanse was selected in the 22nd round of the 2013 Major League Baseball First-Year Player Draft by the Tampa Bay Rays. He was the 668th pick.
"I didn't know where I was going to end up," said Hanse of the MLB Draft. "I was in contact with some scouts and they'd call or text me every once in a while. I got a random call on that Saturday (of the draft) and I knew I was drafted. It was an awesome experience."
Hanse began his professional career with the Hudson Valley Renegades in the New York-Penn League, where he went 2-2 with a 4.80 ERA in 12 appearances. After being promoted to the Midwest League's Bowling Green Hot Rods, he closed out the 2013 season with a 1-0 record in 10 games, sporting a 0.49 ERA.
The right-hander is back for his second stint with the Hot Rods this season, where he is 0-2 where he is 0-2 with a 6.75 ERA in five games. After getting roughed up in consecutive outings at Burlington and against Kane County, Hanse has allowed one unearned run over his last six innings (three appearances).
"The great thing about minor league baseball is you get to play every day," said Hanse. "You are able to forget (the bad ones) and go out the next day and compete."
Playing every day has been the biggest adjustment for Hanse, but constantly being at the ballpark has allowed him to continue working on refining his pitching.
"I am focusing on getting better each and every day," he said. "I am working on developing my off-speed pitches and trying to be more consistent."
Even with the long bus trips in the Midwest League with teams ranging from Kentucky to Wisconsin and Iowa to Ohio, Hanse is relishing his opportunity in minor league baseball.
"This has been a wonderful experience," he said. "The bus rides are long in the Midwest League, but we have a really nice bus, so they're not too long at all."

Don't let Utah's reputation as a dull bastion of Mormonism, polygamy, and weak beer deter you from visiting the Beehive State. The truth is, Utah has really loosened its ultra-conservative attitude in recent years and the place has never been more fun. The natural beauty here has always been the big draw, but with more bars, brewpubs, and entertainment now on the menu it's an even better travel destination.
Utah's urban attractions are admittedly thin, but its natural wonders are at the top of the charts. The entire southern region is covered in extraordinary red rock canyon national parks like Zion, Bryce, and Canyonlands. It's a mecca for hiking, mountain biking, rock climbing, and other outdoor recreation. Just next door, the Wasatch Mountains are home to superb ski resorts like Alta, Snowbird, and Park City. At the center of it all is the capital Salt Lake City, the core of Mormonism, with its own surprising delights.
What surprises most first-time visitors to Utah is the open friendliness of the people. There are certainly closed communities in some rural areas, but the main tourist haunts like Moab, Park City, and Salt Lake are loads of fun and almost as liberal-minded as other states. There's some incredible value to be had in Utah. Food and lodging are both very affordable. The only possible negative is the strict alcohol laws that make it hard to find a stiff drink. But even that is loosening up, and the state's bar scene has never been livelier.
Apart from the ski towns like Park City, few travelers spend much time in Utah's cities. They have their merits, but the real attraction here is the outdoor recreation. You can easily move from the alpine ski resorts of the Wasatch down into the red rock canyons of Arches in a single day. The area around Salt Lake Valley offers easy access to both worlds, with the capital convenient to everything. But the real gems of Utah take a little extra travel effort to reach. The wonders of Zion National Park, Lake Powell, and Canyonlands are just remote enough to deter weekend warriors.
Without a car you won't see anything in Utah. There simply is no other means of transportation to move around this state than by driving. But the roads and interstates are in excellent condition, and nearly every mile of driving in Utah can be considered highly scenic. You'll really need a full week to get more than a taste of what's waiting in Canyon Country. The rate on a weekly car rental can offer some solid savings over single day rates, and early bookings lower the cost even more.
- Rise above the multicolored sandstone beauty of Canyonlands National Park by driving to the easily accessible Island in the Sky District with its many vantage points
- Get your money's worth of powder on the slopes of Utah's legendary ski resorts such as Alta, Snowbird, and Deer Valley
- Experience the seemingly impossible grip of Moab's ironically-named slick rock mountain bike trails, a must-ride for any serious mountain biker
- Gawk at the sheer majesty of Zion National Park's red rock canyons as they tower thousands of feet straight up from the valley floor
- Rent a houseboat for a week on Lake Powell and explore the hundreds of little finger coves that ripple the shoreline of this stunning lake
- Witness the divine architecture of the Mormon Temple at the heart of Salt Lake City and learn a bit about this unique religion
- Drop into Utah's most liberal scene in the mountain town of Park City, a rare center of lively nightlife and trendy amenities

Their father, Tim, was a sometime actor who bartended, but mainly worked as a mechanic and janitor before becoming a drug counselor; their mother, Chris, was a Harvard-bred grade school teacher. While they were children, their parents divorced, with their mother singularly raising them after their father headed out to California. Within their diverse, academic-minded neighborhood, the brothers' childhoods were relatively normal.

Hi JACustomer,
Are you a secondary account holder on this account, so that you are also responsible to the credit card company, or are you only an authorized user for this account?
That means you do not owe the money to the credit card company. Your mother owes the money to the credit card company. If you had an agreement with your mother that you would use the card and then pay her for your charges, that agreement is between you and your mother, not between you and the credit card company. It also means you owe the money to your mother, not to the credit card company.
This is so, even if you paid the money directly to the credit card company, instead of to your mother.
I think this is what you wanted to know. If not, please let me know.
Thank you.

First, access the reporting interface from Admin → Local System Administration → Reports
Then, in the "My Folders" box, create a sub-folder in Templates. Do this by clicking on the "Templates" link. Note that "Templates" will appear with a document icon next to it; this means that it is a folder that does not yet contain anything. The icon will change in a few steps.
Then enter a label for your folder in the Folder Name field and click "Create Sub Folder".
An "Action Complete" alert should appear. After clicking through that alert, the screen should refresh and your sub-folder should be under My Folders → Templates. Note that the icon for "Templates" has changed from a document icon to a folder icon; this means it contains something. Click on the brown triangle to expand the Templates folder and view the sub folders.
Now repeat these steps and create sub-folders for both the "Reports" folder and the "Output" folder in the "My folders" box. A good practice is to create a sub-folder of the same name in each of the 3 top-level folders.
Select the sub-folder you just created from the My Folders → Templates folder.
Click on the "Create a new Template for this folder" link.
From this screen you will create the actual template. I'll go through each part of the interface very briefly and then go into details.
This is where you enter the name of your template.
This is where you enter a description for your template.
This is where you choose the type of template (ie. circ, patron, inhouse use, etc.) We'll revisit this dropdown menu in a moment.
These are the different objects and fields that you can choose for both selection (filter) criteria and report output. This list changes based on the type of template you have selected.
This box will list the fields you choose to display in your report.
This box will list the fields you wish to filter on.
This box lists special filter criteria on summarized (aggregated) information.
Here we will go over the different Template Types and create sample reports for each. The first three we should go over is Item, Bibliographic Record, and ILS User. These "entity archetypes" (abstract representations of objects, things, people) are often included in other template types, such as Circulation and Hold Request. If you learn the meaning of the different fields for those base entities, then it'll be easier later to create reports that reach across multiple entities.

DALLAS -- The three kings of Cardinals football were spotted at the Super Bowl.
Super Bowl XLV scouting report | Preparations
Kurt Warner now is a shining face on television. Larry Fitzgerald has one year left on his contract and one hand on the doorknob. Ken Whisenhunt is lurking, networking, doing anything he can to keep the flame lit in Arizona.
As tourists in Texas, they all shared the same sinking feeling - the intense longing to play in the big game once again.
They felt left out in the cold, a bad place to be at this Super Bowl.
"This is the only time I miss playing," Warner said.
"It hurts to be here," Whisenhunt said. "It's like throwing salt on an open wound."
"I don't want to waste another year," Fitzgerald said.
For the most part, Whisenhunt remains calm and confident, and his words sound reassuring. But the lesson of Super Bowl XLV is clear for anyone who cares to look:
Successful franchises such as the Steelers and Packers have figured out that trophies generally require three essential elements: a keen evaluator of talent, a strong leader of men and an elite quarterback. The Cardinals have one of those ingredients, and until they get a second, they have no shot.
They don't have a quarterback. That's obvious. And to those who spotted Whisenhunt playing golf with Peyton Manning, sorry. The Colts' star is not leaving Indianapolis the way the Colts left Baltimore.
The Cardinals don't have a strong general manager. Rod Graves is friendly, pliable, sincere and a great ambassador for Bidwill interests. He came to the desert as a $100,000 scout, hiked his annual salary to around $1.5 million, and I celebrate his good fortune. But he's not a team builder, and his ascension represents the primary flaw in the organization's design.
Consequently, Whisenhunt has been stretched thin at times, forced to get involved in areas that shift his focus from his primary obligation: leading men who have the talent to win football games.
"What I'm excited about with our football team is we have a lot of young football players who have played for us and have started to play well," Whisenhunt said. "To me, that's the greatest hope that we're going to get back to being a division champion, playoff-type team real quickly.
"We have Andre Roberts, Daryl Washington, Dan Williams, O'Brien Schofield, John Skelton, Greg Toler, Calais Campbell . . . we have some young guys ready to take that next step and not make the mistakes they made last year."
Whisenhunt also forecasts bounce-back years from his marquee players, including Fitzgerald, Adrian Wilson, Darnell Dockett and Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie. That seems logical.
"If I were a betting man, I'd bet on that, from top to bottom," Whisenhunt said.
But they return from a team that won only five games. The Rams have an elite quarterback, the 49ers have a prized new coach, and the Seahawks are reigning division champions. And if there is a lengthy lockout, it would further stress the teams with many holes to fill, such as the Cardinals.
"What's very disconcerting as a coach is, generally before a draft you have a period of time when you can address your needs," Whisenhunt said. "If there's a lockout and no free agency (period to sign players), we're going to go into the draft having not met some of our needs. That's going to be difficult."
Meanwhile, Fitzgerald is saying all the right things, like he always he does. But it's generally assumed that he (A) wants a contract extension before the season starts; (B) doesn't want to play with a retread or "bridge" quarterback; and (C) doesn't want to "waste another year."
Maybe the Cardinals can pull off a trade for Kyle Orton or Kevin Kolb. If not? Either way, Whisenhunt doesn't seem all that concerned and says he's in constant contact with the star wide receiver.
"I can't imagine a future without Larry Fitzgerald," Whisenhunt said.
By the way, Simeon Rice also showed up at the Super Bowl. He came to unleash a short film that marks his directorial debut. It's called, "When I Was King."
Hopefully that title won't resonate with the Cardinals' coach anytime soon.

CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) — Winter-weary motorists faced another potentially treacherous commute Monday morning in parts of the Mid-Atlantic as frigid weather blew in just days before the start of spring.
Snow is expected by Monday afternoon from the Central Appalachians to the Jersey Shore. Parts of eastern West Virginia, central and west-central Virginia and the Shenandoah Valley could see up to 10 inches of snow. Smaller accumulations were expected in Kentucky, Tennessee, Pennsylvania, Maryland, New Jersey and Washington, D.C.
Forecasters warned that travel in the snowy areas could be dangerous and urged drivers not to let their guards down.
Federal offices in the Washington area were closed for the day Monday.
With spring officially starting Thursday, people weary of shoveling snow are hoping the latest storm will be winter's final encore.

Moody's cuts French banks as euro crisis deepens
DALIAN, China/BERLIN (Reuters) - Moody's Investors Service cut the credit ratings of France's Credit Agricole SA and Societe Generale on Wednesday, citing their exposure to Greece's debt, a fresh blow to euro area leaders struggling to restore confidence in the region. The ratings agency left BNP Paribas on review for a ratings downgrade saying the bank's profitability and capital base provides adequate cushion to support its Greek, Portuguese and Irish exposure.
Kabul attack ends after 20 hours as last gunman killed
KABUL (Reuters) - An assault by Taliban insurgents on the heart of Kabul's diplomatic and military enclave ended on Wednesday after 20 hours when security forces killed the last of six attackers, an Afghan government spokesman said. It was the longest and most audacious militant attack on the Afghan capital in the decade since the Taliban were ousted from power and a stark reminder of the insurgents' strength and reach as Western forces start to return home.
Republicans step up criticism of Obama's jobs plan
COLUMBUS, Ohio/WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President Barack Obama warned Republican lawmakers on Wednesday against delaying action on his jobs plan until the 2012 elections even as they intensified criticism of his $447 billion proposal. "The next election is 14 months away, and we don't have the luxury of waiting that long," Obama told 3,000 people in Ohio, home state of House of Representatives Speaker John Boehner, the top Republican.

Fed set to give economy therapy, not shock treatment
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The Federal Reserve, facing rising global financial strains and recession fears, is poised to increase downward pressure on longer-term interest rates next week in a bid to accelerate a sputtering U.S. recovery. With one eye on escalating debt turmoil in Europe and another on a stubbornly high 9.1 percent U.S. unemployment rate, the Fed, whose policy panel meets next Tuesday and Wednesday, looks set to begin shifting the composition of its balance sheet to weight it more heavily with longer-term securities.
Exclusive: U.S. in criminal probe of eBay employees
SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - U.S. prosecutors have launched a criminal probe into whether eBay Inc employees took confidential information from classified ad website Craigslist as eBay sought to build a rival service, a copy of a grand jury subpoena obtained by Reuters shows.

Might as well go out without makeup
Posted by 5109294900389757371 on Jan 22, 2015
This product is extremely disappointing. When I was ordering I was only concerned about getting the colour just right, considering the positive reviews these foundations have received. I was looking for a mineral foundation to replace one I already had which was from a more expensive brand and contained bismuth oxychloride. I do not have particularly bad skin to begin with, but the coverage of this is lower than low, and did nothing to hide pores, a few tiny blemishes, or dark circles. I have had more luck with very sheer tinted moisturisers. The packaging is as useless as the product it contains. It's very difficult to get any product out of the container. The colour was a match to my skin tone, but that's not much use if the product doesn't work.

Elisabeth Crandall-Howell Elevated to Associate Head Coach
Related Links
BERKELEY, Calif. – Elisabeth Crandall-Howell, who has served on the Cal women's gymnastics staff for two seasons, has been promoted to associate head coach, director of Cal gymnastics Justin Howell announced Tuesday.
"Liz has one of the brightest and most-respected gymnastics minds in the country, and her expertise has been instrumental in the upward trajectory of this program," Howell said. "She is a student-athlete centered coach and pushes all of us to become 'One Day Better.' As an associate head coach, Liz will continue to bring stability and professional expertise, and help us recruit the best and the brightest to our incredible university. I look forward to a very bright future for Cal Gymnastics."
Since joining the Cal women's gymnastics staff in September 2012, Crandall-Howell has been integral in Cal's stellar ascent through the national rankings. The Bears finished the 2012 season ranked 49th nationally shortly before Crandall-Howell joined the program, and finished ranked 16th this season. Cal's 33-spot rise since 2012 marks the largest margin of improvement in NCAA gymnastics history, a feat only one other school has achieved (Maryland, 1997-99). Under her tutelage, Cal earned back-to-back NCAA Regional berths in 2013 and 2014, and this season the Bears sent individual gymnasts to the NCAA Championships for the first time since 2003.
"Liz's commitment to our student-athletes and their development as gymnasts, students and community members has been a constant since her arrival on campus," said women's gymnastics sport supervisor and 2014 NACGC/W Region I Administrator of the Year Ryan Cobb. "Her title now accurately reflects the high level of coaching experience, expertise and leadership she provides to our student-athletes and the Cal women's gymnastics program in so many areas."
As associate head coach, Crandall-Howell will continue working with all aspects of the Cal women's gymnastics program, including fitness and nutrition, academic support and character development both in and out of the gym. Additionally, Crandall-Howell lends her expertise as an international brevet judge to help strengthen Cal's routines across the board.
"I have been so honored to be a part of our team's journey over the past few seasons," Crandall-Howell said. "These athletes continue to push forward toward excellence in every aspect of their lives. They inspire us to work harder every day. I am excited and proud to continue to build this program into the future."
In her two seasons at Cal, Crandall-Howell's leadership has been most evident on beam. After posting a 48.285 Regional Qualifying Score (RQS) on the event in 2012, Cal finished the past season with a 49.015 RQS and a 49.275 season-high on the event, which was also the program's second highest beam score in program history. In 2014, the Bears broke the 49.0 mark on beam for the first time since 2008, and continued to break it, posting four team scores of 49.0 or better. The beam team combined for nine of Cal's 33 event titles.
Crandall-Howell also helped the team make similar gains on floor, where the Bears improved from a 48.330 RQS in 2012 to a 49.155 RQS and 49.300 high in 2014. The 2014 squad claimed five floor titles and posted five floor scores of 9.90 or higher. The team matched the program's fourth-highest (49.300) and fifth-highest (49.275) floor scores in program history.
Individually, Crandall-Howell has been crucial in the development of 2013 Pac-12 Freshman of the Year Serena Leong, helping her to the third-highest beam score (9.90) and second-highest floor score (9.925) in program history, feats less than 10 Cal gymnasts have been able to accomplish. Jessica Howe wrapped up her freshman season with four beam titles and set a career-high 9.90 on the event alongside Leong.
Crandall-Howell joined the Cal family as an assistant coach in 2012 after coaching at Airborne Gymnastics since 2007. She was the head coach at Woodland Gymnastics from 1998-2003 and served as an assistant coach at Sacramento State from 2001-03. As a gymnast, she was a seven-time U.S. National Team member from 1987-92, competing at the Olympic trials in 1992 and earning a silver medal with the 1991 World Championships team. She earned a full gymnastics scholarship to Brigham Young University, where she was a two-time first team All-American on the uneven bars and helped the Cougars to three NCAA Championships from 1994-96.
"She has led elite-level club programs as a head coach in the past, and her body of work in this sport is extensive with experiences as a gymnast, coach and internationally-accredited judge. We are thrilled to have Liz at Cal as a part of coaching staff that is consistently taking this program to new heights," Cobb said.
Crandall-Howell received her bachelor's degree in physical education and health promotion from BYU in 1997. She and husband Justin Howell welcomed son Greyson in 2013, joining sons Jacob and Noah.

Pitchers' duel goes Capo Valley's way
Pitchers' duel goes Capo Valley's way
The Cougars scrape together a rally in the seventh to beat Orange Lutheran, 4-0.
ORANGE - Sometimes the winner of a baseball game is determined by who succeeds at doing the little things. That's what happened for Capistrano Valley in a CIF-SS Division I second-round playoff game against Orange Lutheran on Tuesday night.
With one out in the top of the seventh of a scoreless game, the Cougars took advantage of a passed ball by Orange Lutheran catcher Robby Vaughn to move two runners into scoring position at second and third.
Steve McMichael was walked intentionally by Lancers relief pitcher Bobby Wheatley. Nolan Clark then worked Wheatley for a walk that forced in Peter Hoyt with the game's first run. Hoyt had started the rally with an infield single.
Tyler Matzek followed with a two-run single to left and Kevin Chambers added an RBI single to lead the Cougars to a 4-0 victory at Hart Park.
The Cougars (22-6) will play host to Marina in the quarterfinals on Friday. Marina defeated Vista Murrieta, 5-3, on Tuesday.
"Unfortunately, that passed ball came at the wrong time," Orange Lutheran coach Eric Borba said. "Then they got to their big guys and break it open a little bit."
Before the seventh, Matzek was locked in a pitcher's duel with Orange Lutheran pitcher Andrew Thurman (5-8), who allowed four hits through the first six innings.
Thurman pitched out of a bases-loaded jam in the third inning. The Cougars loaded the bases with one out and appeared set on busting the game open. However, Thurman got Clark to fly out to right and he retired Matzek on a fly ball to left to end the inning.
"It has to be a tough thing on a pitcher when you're going up against arguably the best left-hander (Matzek) in the country and you have to go out and put zeroes up," Borba said. "There's pressure on you, but he answered to that."
The Lancers did their best to put pressure on Matzek, but the left-hander didn't fold.
Orange Lutheran had runners get to third in the first and third innings but couldn't break through. Matzek allowed a lead-off hit in the fourth, but escaped without any harm. Then in the fifth, he walked consecutive batters with one out, but he retired the Lancers when Nicholas Burnett lined into a double play.
"I was struggling a little bit getting that first guy (of the inning)," Matzek said.
Matzek (11-1) allowed two hits in six innings and recorded seven strikeouts to get the victory. Clark pitched a scoreless seventh inning for the Cougars.
"He's a tremendous bulldog," Capistrano Valley coach Bob Zamora said of Matzek. "He'll fight you tooth and nail. He didn't want to come out of the ballgame. He had already hit 103 pitches and he wanted to go out (for the seventh). As soon as we got the four runs, it made my decision easier."
Zamora said he was confident that Clark could handle finishing the game and liked that he saved added wear-and-tear his ace, Matzek.
"Now, the 20 pitches we saved by him not going out (for the seventh), maybe he has to close the game against Marina," Zamora said. "You never know, but I'm glad I made the decision that I made."
Of course, Matzek wanted to go back out for the seventh.
"I felt good," he said. "I wanted to stay in. I felt like I had plenty left in the tank, but it was coach's decision."
Clark, who started the game at catcher, pitched a scoreless seventh for the Cougars.
"For six innings, it was pretty much a perfect game," Borba said. "If you would have told us we would be 0-0 after six innings, we would have liked I chances, especially when Matzek was around 100 pitches."

ObamaCare is a success, if you just ignore everything wrong with it
Everyone would like their work to be judged solely on its merits, without a single mention of its flaws. Politicians make this desire into an art form. ObamaCare turns it into an outright psychosis. How else to explain a beaming President Obama taking a victory lap over supposedly reaching 7 million enrollments with a miraculous last-minute surge?
