SCOTT BROWN POISED EXPLORE NEW HAMPSHIRE SENATE RUN. Scott Brown, the former Massachusetts senator who lost his seat to Elizabeth Warren, is poised to open an exploratory committee to run for the Senate again - but this time, in New Hampshire, ABC's JEFF ZELENY reports. Three Republican officials tell ABC News that Brown is nearing a decision to jump into the New Hampshire Senate race to challenge Sen. Jeanne Shaheen. The contest would instantly become one of the hottest races in the country and could give Republicans one more path to winning control of the Senate. Brown could announce his plans as early as today, one source said. The Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee was quick to criticize Brown, saying: "if this exploratory committee is anything more than another publicity stunt he'll have a tough time convincing New Hampshire voters that he cares about anyone other than himself." http://abcn.ws/1fWhIPd
-ANALYSIS - ABC's RICK KLEIN: Now the question turns from what will Brown do to what he can do. For Republicans, Scott Brown's entry into the Senate race in New Hampshire has the immediate impact of expanding the map. New Hampshire catches waves - the blue kind in 2006, 2008, and 2012, red in 2010 - and you need boats on the water for the winds to hit you. Brown's state-jumping is more than a historical curiosity: He will immediately become a viable challenger to Sen. Jeanne Shaheen, should he emerge from a still-jumbled primary. (And on that front, watch the Union-Leader's welcome closely.) Brown's waiting game has annoyed operatives from Manchester to Washington, but he still has plenty of time. And Republicans are about to have another path to recapturing the Senate majority.
-NOTED: Brown is scheduled to speak later this afternoon at the Northeast Republican Leadership Conference, a gathering of Republican politicians and activists, in Nashua, N.H.
JARED LETO LEADS 'ROCK STAR DIPLOMACY' IN UKRAINE. Fresh off his Oscar win, actor and musician Jared Leto has spent the last two days in Kiev, Ukraine, performing with his rock band Thirty Seconds to Mars and expressing support for the pro-Western independence movement there, ABC's ALI WEINBERG notes. "I know it may be difficult but there's no price too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself," Leto told a cheering crowd at the band's show Wednesday at Kiev's Sports Palace. Leto mentioned that other American bands had cancelled their Ukraine appearances which, if honored, would have brought them into the heart of an international struggle between protesters who toppled Ukraine's pro-Russian government and a Russian president who wants to bring the former Soviet state back into his orbit. "I understand other bands have cancelled their shows but there was no f-king way" he was going to follow suit, Leto said. But Leto and his group are not the only bands from either side of the Atlantic to have used their stardom to take a stand on the conflict. Eugene Hütz, the Ukrainian-born frontman of the New York-based, self-described "gypsy punk" band Gogol Bordello, posted a picture on the group's website of a new sticker on his guitar, which he said translated to "Ukraine, not an outskirt but a centre." http://abcn.ws/1exbgIS
OBAMA MOVES TO EXPAND OVERTIME PAY. Continuing his "Year of Action," President Obama yesterday signed a presidential memorandum directing the Department of Labor to develop a plan to extend overtime pay for millions of workers, ABC's MARY BRUCE notes. The move is the latest in the president's focus on middle-class economic issues, which includes a call for a higher minimum wage and equal pay for women. Claiming the overtime rules have eroded over the years, the president is instructing the Secretary of Labor to devise new guidelines that would set a higher income threshold for employees to qualify for overtime pay. Currently, workers who are paid hourly wages or who make $455 a week or less are protected by overtime regulations, while those above the threshold who perform "executive, professional or administrative duties" are not. http://abcn.ws/PxXUXJ
CHRIS CHRISTIE'S TESLA PROBLEM: HOW IT COULD IMPACT 2016. New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, self-declared enemy of all "sacred cows," is being accused of protecting the golden calf of the automobile industry, ABC's ABBY PHILLIP writes. Startup electric car company Tesla is taking Christie to task for a new rule that would make buying those cars in New Jersey impossible starting next month. This week, the state's Motor Vehicle Commission approved a rule that prevents car manufacturers from selling directly to their customers - which was also backed by traditional automobile retailers who presently serve as a middle man between car manufacturers and consumers. According to Tesla, it's a classic example of government officials protecting entrenched special interests, in this case traditional car dealer franchises, at the expense of consumers who don't have access to newer technology at lower prices. Christie's office has said that they told Tesla from the beginning that the dispute needs to be resolved in the legislature. http://abcn.ws/1cVjiAl
-NOTED: CHRISTIE FIRES BACK AT HECKLER: 'SIT DOWN AND KEEP QUIET!' New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie fired back at a group of protesters yesterday during a town hall meeting, telling one of them to "sit down and keep quiet," reports ABC's SHUSHANNAH WALSHE. The outburst took place while Christie held his 113th town hall to promote his budget, although it's unclear who the protesters are. Christie, no stranger to confrontation, said he didn't "know who these folks are" - but said he believes they were together calling them a "coordinated, partisan effort." Each of the six protesters were escorted out after they began yelling. The crowd that had gathered at the YMCA of Burlington County in Mount Laurel applauded when the protesters were walked out.

POPE FRANCIS INVITED TO ADDRESS JOINT SESSION OF CONGRESS. Pope Francis has been invited by House Speaker John Boehner to speak to a joint session of Congress , ABC's JEFF ZELENY reports. Boehner extended the formal invitation yesterday in a letter to the Vatican - on the one-year anniversary of his papacy - saying the Holy Father has "awakened hearts on every continent." "Pope Francis has inspired millions of Americans with his pastoral manner and servant leadership, challenging all people to lead lives of mercy, forgiveness, solidarity, and humble service," Boehner wrote. "His tireless call for the protection of the most vulnerable among us - the ailing, the disadvantaged, the unemployed, the impoverished, the unborn - has awakened hearts on every continent." http://abcn.ws/1lCsnxC
-PAPAL TRIVIA: Since Paul VI made his first papal visit to the United States in 1965, three popes have come to America. John Paul II, who came to the United States seven times, visited with every president from Jimmy Carter to Bill Clinton. A pope has visited the United Nations four times, but one has never addressed the House and Senate during a joint session.
HARRY REID'S TOTALLY 'RADICAL' FLOOR SPEECH TARGETS KOCHS. It was totally radical day for Sen. Harry Reid. So "radical," in fact, that the Senate majority leader used the word 21 times in a floor speech Thursday morning, to criticize the billionaire conservative donors Charles and David Koch, ABC's CHRIS GOOD notes. Reid has undertaken an anti-Koch crusade of late, blasting the brothers for funding ads that attack Democratic candidates. Last month, Reid called the brothers "un-American." His prepared floor speech only included 12 uses of "radical," but he nearly doubled that count, apparently on the fly. "When Senate Republicans defend the Koch brothers, they are also defending the Koch brothers' radical philosophy," Reid said, going on to ask whether Republicans would defend the "radical" agenda to roll back environmental regulations, repeal Democratic health reforms, and alter Social Security and Medicare, repeating his question as a refrain throughout the speech. "Those were Charles Koch's own words, radical philosophy, by the way," Reid said. http://abcn.ws/1iFxXxB

HOUSE MAJORITY PAC ANNOUNCES NEW COMMUNICATIONS DIRECTOR. House Majority PAC, a group devoted to helping Democrats get elected to Congress, announced today that Matt Thornton will take over as Communications Director for Andy Stone, who is departing for Facebook. "Matt has the right combination of experience and savvy to help House Majority PAC hold Republicans accountable and win House seats," Executive Director Alixandria Lapp said in a statement. "Andy has been an invaluable asset to our team. I wish him the best and know that he has laid the groundwork for Matt to step in and excel." According to the group's press release: "Thornton has over a decade of political experience on campaigns, in Congress, and with independent expenditures. … He was most recently the Senior Communications Adviser at American Bridge 21st Century."
"CAN COLORADO GOP BRING BACK THE GLORY DAYS?" an ABCNews.com Op-Ed by GOP strategist Joe Brettell. "If there were a theme song for recent Republican history in Colorado, it would have to be, "You've Lost That Lovin' Feeling." Once a reliable Republican stronghold, the state went red in 10 of 12 presidential elections from 1960 through 2004, with brief anomalies when Coloradans voted for LBJ in 1960 and Bill Clinton in 1992. By the 2004 presidential elections, Republicans owned the governor's mansion, both Senate seats and five out of the seven members of the U.S. House. Within the space of two election cycles, however, the tide had turned completely. As of election night 2008, Democrats held the governor's mansion, both U.S. Senate seats and the House delegation had flipped, with five of the seven congressional seats going to Democrats. Recent history has shown that such a fundamental shift in population and demographics would present a big challenge to Republicans. Yet, the recent announcement of two top-tier GOP candidates for statewide office has spawned a new optimism about the Centennial state. While far from sure things, Rep. Cory Gardner, who announced his candidacy for Senate, and former Rep. Bob Beauprez, who has announced his candidacy for governor, represent the best set of candidates Colorado has had since the Republican heyday in the early 2000s." http://abcn.ws/1cCR1OK

Safe Recovery: Helping People Through the Recovery Process
Safe Recovery Program Coordinator Tom Dalton is quick to point out that recovery is a process that takes place over time. "For most people, the recovery process includes periods of use and non-use. Safe Recovery is a safe place for people to come to for support, even if they are currently using. Helping someone stay safe today, whether or not they are using today, is an important part of supporting their recovery."
The program offers support for people living with addiction to opioids, or who have injected any drug. Because clients are often at risk of contracting HIV, Hepatitis A/B, and Hepatitis C, the program provides free testing and vaccinations. A key component to keep people safe is the syringe exchange program. On an average day, 80 people may come into the exchange. This past year, Safe Recovery added another option for clients and began distributing overdose rescue kits that contain naloxone, a nasal spray used to reverse an opioid overdose.
Dalton says, "We engage people who are actively using and support them as they transition from active use to active recovery. We are an important bridge to treatment for hundreds of people every year." Clients may be referred to the Chittenden Clinic, Howard Center's medication assisted treatment program for opiate use, as well as other needed services. Dalton adds, "We help people with all issues—housing, health insurance, and legal problems. We know that everything has to be stabilized in a person's life for them to be successful in recovery."
The vaccinations are part of the goal of keeping people safe while in recovery. Dalton points out that there is no vaccine for Hepatitis C, and prevalence is high among people who inject in Vermont. The treatment to cure the disease can be as much as $80,000-$100,000. Providing access to sterile syringes and other supports is an inexpensive way to prevent the transmission of HIV and Hepatitis C in the first place.
Dalton says, "We are a constant for people. Someone may relapse and lose contact with their treatment program. But they come back here, and we help get them reconnected." Safe Recovery has a good reputation among the recovery community, and Dalton notes that clients often come in saying, "Several people told me I should come here."
It's true, says Dalton, "We'll welcome you. We'll be supportive. Sometimes when you are really struggling it's hard to function. You need someone to go the extra mile to help you get unstuck. We say to clients, let's make that call now. Let's go over this application together. Let's do it right now. We'll help you with what you need."

Richard Cockerill may no longer be the caretaker at Leicester, but the man handed the full-time coaching role at the club a fortnight ago has been a new broom in the past two months. The Tigers have swept to the top of the Premiership and, after this disdainful dismissal of the bottom club, the biggest win in the division this season, few would bet against them becoming champions for the second time in three years at Twickenham next month.
Bristol, relegated three weeks earlier and facing the departure of many of their bigger name players, were always facing a difficult final afternoon in the Premiership. Life got no easier when they lost their fly-half and playmaker Ed Barnes, who limped off after only a quarter of an hour. By then the visitors had already conceded two tries, Sam Vesty dodging through their defence for the first and Julian White crashing over beneath the posts for the second.
Vesty has been outstanding this spring under Cockerill's new regime and he was at the heart of the move that led to sending Dan Hipkiss over for the third try. When Jordan Crane crossed to secure a bonus point after half an hour, the game was over.
Geordan Murphy also scored before the break and at the interval many of the Tigers fans moved behind Bristol's posts in anticipation of more tries. They were not disappointed. Toby Flood, Geordan Murphy, Johne Murphy and the replacements Tom Varndell, Ben Woods and Ayoola Erinle all crossed the line as Leicester toyed with their visitors. It was an abject end for Bristol.

Santa Clarita, CA -- On an evening when it was drizzling outside, The Master's College created its own version of rain inside Bross Gym, pouring in 11 three-pointers while holding off Arizona Christian 91-81 in a hard-fought GSAC contest.
The victory continued a win-one, lose-one pattern for the Mustangs who improved to 14-9 overall and 3-5 in the GSAC where they are tied with two other teams for fifth place.
Although head coach Chuck Martin would never admit it, this one was a must-win for the Mustangs who ended the first half of conference play with a 2-5 mark. So, with Derrick Fain (Dallas, TX), Devin Dyer (Temecula, CA), and Leif Karlberg (Anchorage, AK) combining for 10 trifectas, the Mustangs were able to counter the Firestorm who hit 12 from behind the arc.
The Mustangs' accuracy from behind the arc was most evident in the second half when they connected on seven treys. The first of those came from Dyer, tying the game at 39 and triggering a 10-0 run that put the Mustangs ahead to stay. Jason Logan (Spartanburg, SC), who wowed the crowd with more highlight-reel plays, tallied the other seven points of the skein that produced a 46-39 advantage with 17:16 left to play.
However, this one was far from over. It seemed like every time the Mustangs were about to put the Firestorm away, the visitors would come raging back to keep everyone on pins and needles. Over the next six minutes, the Firestorm stayed within striking distance, even closing to 56-55 on a Talib Uqdah three-pointer with 12:27 left in the game.
Not to be outdone by his Firestorm counterpart (Uqdah poured in eight three-pointers), Fain responded in decisive fashion, draining a trio of trifectas in less than two minutes to extend the Mustang lead to 65-58 at the 9:39 mark. An Uqdah trey on Arizona's next possession sliced the deficit to four points but a Paul Brown (Kingston, Jamaica) three-point play fueled a 10-2 burst that Karlberg finished with a triple for a 75-63 lead with 7:13 remaining.
Still, the Firestorm was not done. Trailing by twelve (79-67) with under five minutes to play, the visitors made one last rush. With Uqdah draining consecutive threes, the Firestorm made up more than half the deficit in less than two minutes, closing to 80-75 at the 2:52 mark.
The clubs traded baskets over the next two minutes until a Dyer breakaway dunk sparked a 5-0 burst that created a 89-79 margin and put out the Firestorm for good.
The first half was a different game altogether as no more than three points separated the squads during a stanza that featured 13 lead changes and six ties. The Mustangs enjoyed several of those leads and were up 31-28 after Fain converted a pair of free throws with 3:43 remaining in the half. But that advantage was erased over the next 1:50 as the Firestorm outscored the Mustangs 7-1, highlighted by a Charles King three-pointer that snapped a 32-all tie with 1:53 left.
Brown and Dyer responded with consecutive jumpers to move the Mustangs back in front 36-35 but a Daniel Cornelius jumper at the buzzer sent the Firestorm to the locker room ahead 37-36.
The Mustangs connected on 43% of their shots in the first half but warmed up over the final 20 minutes, hitting 59% (20-34) from the field during the closing stanza, highlighted by a 7-10 performance from three-point range.
Fain led all scorers with 28 points, 19 of those coming in a sizzling second half when he connected on a trio of three-pointers. Dyer, who has had his struggles from the field this season had no problems Saturday evening, going 9-14 (3-4 from long range) from the field en route to 21 points. He also dished out a team-best four assists.
Logan contributed 14 points and took down seven rebounds while Karlberg, who went scoreless in the first half, tallied 11 points, nine of those coming on a trio of three-pointers. Rounding out a balanced attack, Brown chipped in with nine points and yanked down a game-high 10 rebounds.

Bell and Agusta continue their development of the BA609 civil tiltrotor, a joint effort that has been ongoing for more than a decade. However, the future of the program may hinge on the joint venture's ability to control program costs, speed certification and deliveries, as well as the success of the first squadron of military tiltrotors about to deploy to Iraq.
Currently the BA609 ranks as one of the lengthiest aircraft development programs in business aviation history, taking its place alongside the Sino-Swearingen SJ30-2 (program announced in 1989; certification in 2005) and the Hawker 4000 (program announced in 1996; certification last year).
Announced in 1996, the BA609 originally began as a partnership with Boeing and Bell. At that time, the six- to nine-passenger BA609 was priced at $8 million. Analysts now believe that the current price is in the range of $16 million to $20 million and that it will go higher by the time the first 609 is delivered, expected in 2011. After Boeing withdrew from the program, Bell and Agusta announced in 1998 that they would establish a joint venture to manage the development of the 609.
The order book for the 609 has slid from a high of 80 in 2001 to 70 today, but customers will have an opportunity to cancel their orders once a final price is announced about 25 months before delivery. During its development cycle, the 609 program has been a relatively low priority for both Bell and Agusta as the companies developed conventional helicopters with wider customer appeal, such as the AgustaWestland AW139 and the Bell 429. Bell, for instance, has only 15 employees working full-timeon the BA609 program, according to a company spokesman.
The impact of the performance of the first operational squadron of $70 million V-22 Osprey military tiltrotors could also affect the future success of the 609. U.S. Marine Corps Medium Tiltrotor Squadron 263 is scheduled to deploy to Iraq this month.
While the V-22 and 609 are different machines tailored to different missions, both have had lengthy development programs and generated their share of controversy. Operational problems with the V-22 could conceivably dampen prospects for the 609.
Currently, two 609s are flying in a developmental test program and two more are scheduled to begin flight tests within the next 18 months. The aircraft has reached a maximum forward speed of 310 knots.

Doris Mesa Manglona proudly calls herself an open book, sharing her battle with drugs and alcohol with others still struggling to escape the clutches of addiction.
Clean and sober for seven years, Manglona, 49, of Vallejo, now gives back by working as a peer mentor for women reentering the community after incarceration.
As part of her own recovery work, she also visits Solano County Juvenile Hall every Monday, where she hopes to inspire girls and boys to make a change.
"I've been there," Manglona said. "And it breaks my heart. They don't see what they're worth … . It's just my passion to give back."
Manglona has been a mentor in the Women's Re-entry Achievement Program for almost a year. Her ability to relate to others has helped her succeed in that role, said Pat Nicodemus of Solano Youth and Family Services, a Vallejo-based non-profit that contracts with the county to offer the program.
"She will challenge folks, but she knows they can do it," Nicodemus said. "She's one of their biggest cheerleaders."
A big reason is Manglona's been in their shoes.
Born in Guam, she said she became defiant and rebellious as a teenager after suffering abuse while being raised by relatives in Ohio. After being sent to Vallejo to live with her mother, she decided to live with her boyfriend.
She soon became pregnant, having children when she was 15 and 18. Around the same time, she said she started partying, going clubbing and drinking and smoking marijuana.
When she was 23, her then-husband — the father of her two daughters — gave her an ultimatum.
"He told me to straighten up or he was going to take the kids to Guam," she said. The warning wasn't enough to change her behavior, she said, and the three of them left her behind.
Manglona fell deeper into addiction, experimenting with harder drugs and getting hooked on methamphetamine. She started running with a "bad crowd."
To pay for her habit, she said she became a prostitute. She also started dealing drugs, which led to her latest arrest in 2007.
It was then she was confronted with another ultimatum.
"They told me I could go to a treatment program and graduate or go to Chowchilla (prison)," she said, adding she had been in and out of jail many times. "I knew I wouldn't make it in prison."
She entered the Genesis House in Vallejo, a residential treatment program, where she remained for 13 months.
She had reached rock bottom.
"That's when I finally surrendered myself," she said. "I was sick and tired of being sick and tired."
Recovery wasn't easy. She said there were times she wanted to run away. But she said she was motivated to stick with it to reunite with her daughters and her grandchildren.
"I wanted to show them I was a changed person," she said.
She later moved to a halfway house where she learned to take care of herself.
Now independent, she's worked for UPS in Oakland for almost five years.
Calling herself a "reborn Christian," Manglona credits her recovery to her faith and the treatment she received, which helped her deal with unresolved issues from her past.
"I learned it wasn't my fault," she said. "I didn't know how to be a mother. I didn't know how to be me."
Manglona said she's working to build a relationship with her daughters, who still live in Guam, raising families of their own. In March, she flew out to visit them for the first time since 2004. She called the trip a "miracle."
Meanwhile, she hopes sharing her story will help others on their own arduous journeys.
"I want them to find a higher power within themselves," she said. "When they see there is a new way to live, they want that. I am sharing that with them."

With two new aircraft programs fast approaching the marketplace Gulfstream Aerospace is challenging Bombardier's recent dominance as arguably the leading innovator for new jet designs. But this is no more than a case of imitation being the sincerest form of flattery, as far as Bombardier Aerospace Business Aircraft president Steve Ridolfi is concerned.
"We feel good about what Gulfstream has done because copying is a form of flattery," Ridolfi told AIN. He dismisses his rival's new large-cabin, long-range G650 jet as a facsimile of Bombardier's Global Express and the super-midsized G250 as a pale imitation of the Challenger 300.
Ridolfi refuted suggestions that Bombardier is losing ground to Gulfstream in the product development stakes after a decade in which the Canadian airframer seemed to have much more momentum than its U.S. rival. "The new Learjet 85 will shake up the midsized segment of the market and we have done the detailed design for this and are ready to start making parts in Mexico in June," he said. "Global Vision [flight deck for the Global Express XRS aircraft] is on the way and heading for delivery."
Bombardier clearly is still plotting more new programs. But it seems intent on leaving Gulfstream and the rest of us guessing about these for the time being–perhaps because it is growing tired of being, as it sees it, imitated.
Ridolfi arrives at this year's EBACE show with a much rosier outlook than 12 months ago. "It is hugely better now," he said. "Then there were [order] cancellations every day and no orders in sight. Since then the cancellations have stabilized and orders are happening. We are not quite back to normal and it will take a while to recover."
According to Bombardier, the used aircraft sector of the market is no longer stagnant, with both prices and sales activity increasing markedly over the last two or three months. "The pipeline looks more solid in terms of longer-term sales," said Ridolfi. "We are still not out of the woods, but we are certainly stable and in a slow climb."
One factor in the partial reversal of fortunes for business aviation is the loosening up in the financial markets.
"Credit has improved quite a bit because the panic is no longer there [on the part of lenders]," explained Ridolfi. "The availability of financing has increased but it is on tougher terms."
Demand in Europe, which in recent years has been a strong growth market for Bombardier, is still not picking up significantly during the early months of 2010. "But it continues to be a leading marketplace, a dominant part of the skyline, for us," said Ridolfi, adding that at the same time prospects in China and India are "very exciting" and could yet provide the momentum to bring the industry out of recession.
Bombardier is projecting that its business aircraft production rates for 2010 will be about 15 percent down on 2009's output of 176 units. This would mean output of around 150 jets and Ridolfi expects this level to be maintained going into 2011.
"We know this market is going to get better and that we can return to double-digit growth," concluded Ridolfi. "All the factors that got us into business aviation are still there."

New Green Team is starting to make a difference at Dodge Middle School
Students at Dodge Middle School are learning important lessons these days. If they want to live in a healthy world, they have to make it happen.
DMS is just one of the schools around School District 192 that is implementing some kind of environmental education program. It falls under the Schools in Energy Efficiency initiative the district participates in, said DMS Green Team advisor Sara Drazkowski.
The DMS program focuses on things students can to do to better their earth both inside and outside of the building. The group of about 25 students meets Thursday mornings. Sometimes they have meetings. Other times they are actually out doing one of their projects.
Every week, the students go around to all of the classrooms and collect the recycling items that have been turned in over the previous week. It's a simple task, but it's still one that gets everyone thinking about recycling, Drazkowski said.
"We're trying to get them to understand we need to try to be good stewards and set an example for others," she said.
But the group is also trying to share simple messages of energy efficiency around the building on a day-to-day basis. They look out for the little they can do in classrooms - like turning off the lights when the rooms aren't in use - and post little notes to gently remind others to think about what they can do to help the cause.
During the fall, the group went outdoors on several occasions to collect trash that had fallen around the building and on the trails nearby. In the spring, they're talking about doing a larger version of that project, by cleaning a trail from DMS to the high school. It's a big task, Drazkowski said, but the kids seem to be ready to take the challenge.
The group is also looking for a spot in town that needs to have some new trees planted, she said.
In the winter months, though, they're focusing on things they can do within the building. Earlier this month, the Green Team started its Green Sneakers shoe collection drive. The Green Sneakers program collects shoes, then resells the old shoes at very low cost in Third World countries. The school gets 50 cents for every pound of shoes turned in.
"There's always something going on," Drazkowski said. "(Green Team) is kind of dual purpose, with energy efficiency and recycling. They kind of go hand in hand. I told them, if they want clean air it's up to them. It's their future and they're responsible for it."

My First Geography of the Pacific

Juror Notes
Offset lithography suggests the clarity and richness of autolithographs, through drawings by the artist on glass, one for each of the six colors. While illustrations and text were planned together, and on some pages go well together, on others the text is forced into measures too long or too short, or too close to the pictures. The grayness of the black inking helps the color pages, but looks weak on those in black only. There is a substantial cloth binding.

I mean all the early season talk has been of Hertl's heroics, but like many young players, he's streaky - scoring 4 one game, then 0 points the next.
Monahan on the other hand, has been consistent and (relatively) quiet about it - now having his 4th goal in as many games on a team that isn't supposed to be nearly as good as San Jose.
I'm thinking Calder if he keeps this up.

Thanks! I cowash with TJ's TTT, then condition with the generic GVP CB or the Generic KPac. Daily stresses my hair out too much with the protein so it's every other day. Then I do tresemee as a leave in with jojoba oil to seal. I put straight fsg in, and then KCCC. Diffuse, add a but more KCCC if needed and that it. But then I got to thinking, I add plain gelatin in the fsg the last few times...is that causing my issue?!
I do need a harder hold gel. I need to just buy some la looks. I mean, they have a 97 cent tube at Walmart in the travel section. I just always assume it won't work du it's cheap. I know, I'm a snob.

I drive to DC all the time for work, and during that trip one-way see an average of probably ten people texting while driving, and I'm not even looking for it. The police should just pull them all. I don't know what the law says, but it should be written so police don't have to prove they were texting. As long as the perp looks on the phone's screen for a few seconds, the intent of the law is met... they are severely distracted. I notice these people always driving too slow or fast and in general weaving more. Pull them.

I've honked at people who are texting and driving. Scary thing is I've never ever had someone pick up their head and look.
One time I was rear-ended by a woman reading a book. No damage - we got back in our cars and I passed her down the road. Yup, she was back to reading.
I think my favorite was when 2 of my friends were on the interstate on motorcycles and a woman just merged on in and didn't see them. They are defensive riders so anticipated she could come over and were prepared, but it scared the crud out of them. She was in a convertible chatting away on her phone so they got on either side of her and blared their horns. Between the horns and the pipes she couldn't hear a word. Of course she flipped them off - had *no* idea she almost killed 2 people.
Can't fix stupid, just have to hope they don't hurt anyone. In the case of this kid, I think charges of reckless driving would be fair. Pull his license.

The driver should be charged with attempted murder..
Why, did he attempt to murder someone? I fully understand and agree with the outrage but attempted murder? What we need is our legislators to create a new law in regards to texting and driving not charge him with a non-applicable crime.

I really wish there were more patrols (if possible) on Davis Drive in RTP during morning and evening rush hour. The amount of "head down" driving by a high concentration of wired professionals (and, I'm one of them...though I don't text and drive) is scary at times.

OK guys, let's just punish crashing while driving and leave it at that. Up the ante a little bit and lay down some actual detering consequences for crashing. If people can text and drive or drive a little tipsy without crashing they should be left alone. One mistake though and you should be riding a bicicle to work for life.

IN the left hand lane, doing this? I believe it, seen it a lot, someone zooms by ya, then all of sudden they're going below the speed limit, look over and they got the phone in hand. Now, I'll have to admit, I learned something. I didn't know it was against the law to read a text message while driving, I just thought ya couldn't be texting (typing into phone to send a message) while driving.

"The law needs teeth to be a deterrent."
AGREED. A $100 fine is a joke.
To PREVENT it would be tough though, I can see that. How would an officer tell if someone was dialing the phone, or texting/reading a text or email? They'd have to pull them over and see the phone - did a text come in or go out in that timeframe, etc.
So the penalty if they cause an accident, should be MUCH bigger. Even more if it causes physical harm to a person.

It took decades to get LEO, prosecutors and judges to take drunk driving seriously - largely to the efforts of M.O.M. Maybe someday the so-called NC Secretary of "Public Safety" will make prevention and prosecution of driving while texting the priority they should be given. New Jersey seems to be leading the country in addressing this plague.

Careless and Reckless sounds more appropriate.

I don't think the charges are harsh enough. The law needs teeth to be a deterrent and it would be better if those charges happened before more people lose their lives to this behavior.
Capt Mercury Nov 14, 2013
Needs to be charged with public endangerment, besides all the DMV violations they can think of.

I Drive a truck and I see it every day. I can only hope the only one they kill is themselves.
If we don't follow through with severe fines or more this behavior will only continue. They scare the heck out of me.

On Demand Information Services
Fronterion On Demand is a series of reports, webinars and specialized service offerings focusing on the most critical issues pertaining to law firms' use of third-party legal vendors.
The Fronterion On Demand offerings were developed as the result of systematic demand and our continued dedication to making key resources available to the broader number of firms now impacted by this evolving area of the legal profession.
Fronterion Law Firm Liability Report
The Fronterion Law Firm Liability Report: How Third-Party Legal Vendors are Reshaping the Liability Equation is essential reading for legal professionals and risk managers of any law firm that engages or supervises third-party legal vendors.
The adoption of third-party legal vendors and their increasingly sophisticated services are fundamentally reshaping the liability equation for law firms. Risks posed by today's third-party legal vendors are dramatically different than the risks posed by legal vendors of the past. Importantly, these new risks are far beyond what many existing law firm professional liability policies were designed to insure. Failing to account for these changing risks can result in uninsured liability exposures and potentially catastrophic consequences for law firms.
The Fronterion Law Firm Liability Report, at 40 pages and over 14,000 words, is the most comprehensive resource available on the legal vendor liability exposures to law firms. Click here to download a free Summary Overview of the report.

Challenge of Death
Date: 2/16/2014 at 22:37
From: Avechna, the Avenger
To : Everyone
Subj: Challenge of Death
Once more the Challenge of Death has come to pass. As expected, the dark
city of Magnagora had a strong showing, especially with Munsia, Thoros
and Ixion on the field, spreading death and destruction in their wake.
However, Lady Kelly, the senior paladin of New Celest, proved especially
adept in the art of war, having won this challenge before in the last
Ascension Event. But in the end, Morkarion n'Lochli of Glomdoring stood
dripping in blood upon a mound of corpses in the end who claimed the
Medallion of Death.
And so the rankings are such:
Second Place: Munsia D'Cente of Magnagora (700 credits)
Third Place: Kelly McCloud of New Celest (500 credits)
Fourth Place: Thoros Feyranti of Magnagora (250 credits)
Fifth Place: Kalas Ixion of Magnagora (100 credits)
Penned by My hand on the 20th of Avechary, in the year 376 CE.

The video game industry has taken the lead in terms of self-regulation and doesn't deserve to be scapegoated
The Exchange is part of an ongoing series on The Hive tackling the questions facing Boston's entrepreneurs, investors, and innovators. This week, we ask participants if the video game industry should be regulated.
Below Alexander Sliwinski, news editor of Joystiq.com argues that the video game industry is frequently scapegoated in the debate over violence, even though the industry has taken the lead in terms of regulating itself, outpacing other forms of media.
For more opinions, read the rest of The Exchange. Have your own opinion, or an idea for another topic? E-mail Hive@Boston.
The Supreme Court of the United States ruled in 2011 video games are protected under the First Amendment in Brown v. The Entertainment Merchants Association. The majority decision rebuffed the idea of video games being more harmful due to their interactive nature, citing the existence of choose-your-own adventure books for over 50 years. Simply stated: Any conversation about violence in video games must take into account violence in all media and video games can't be singled out.
But, let's be honest, video games are singled out.
Why? Well, for the better part of the past three decades the video game industry has been the little brother who could play the scapegoat in the modern media spectrum. The industry was still young and the demographics of its core constituency had little political power.
Every mass media goes through its governmental scapegoating and regulatory threat phase. It's the bar mitzvah of media legitimacy. Hollywood dealt with it in the 1930s, comic books in the 1950s, and the music industry's parental advisory stickers came along in the 1990s.
The video game industry strategically got ahead of the government regulation hammer by forming the Entertainment Software Rating Board (ESRB) in 1994, following controversy over games such as DOOM, Night Trap, and Mortal Kombat.
A 2009 report by the Federal Trade Commission noted the ESRB "outpaces'' other entertainment industries in terms of self-regulation. The group has been overly zealous in some respects, requiring age-gates on any website or video that promotes a Mature 17+ game (equivalent to the movie industry's R).
Last month, the ESRB announced it would revise its rules to allow M-rated game to be shown without age gates, as long as they were designed for general audiences and approved by the ESRB. Taking a page straight out of the movie industry's playbook, these trailers will feature green headers. This is the first de-escalation of self-regulation I think I've seen from the ESRB in 20 years.
"Violent video games'' is a buzzword. It's designed to distract, used with precision on anybody who didn't grow up on video games and doesn't have regular exposure. It's the Jabberwocky term in a Wonderland of vast experiences. Video games can be violent, but they are also Bejeweled, Angry Birds, Minecraft, Tetris, and The Sims.
The great issue currently preventing developers and innovators in the video game industry from setting up shop in the Bay State is the lack of incentives. Those were on track for Massachusetts legislators to discuss last year until the very public collapse of former Red Sox player Curt Schilling's video game company 38 Studios down in Rhode Island. The collapse left state taxpayers holding the bag on repaying a $75 million loan (plus interest) that was co-signed by the state.
The debate over violent video games isn't the threat to more studios opening up in Massachusetts, it's the lack of incentives, which politicians are skittish to support following the Schilling debacle.
The video game industry has been under attack from politicians and the mainstream press for over 20 years. When it comes to movies and music the conversation can be about the art form, the celebrities or any number of topics. With video games? It's always about the violence. It's tiring and the audience deserves better media coverage from an art form that's over thirty years old.
Alexander Sliwinski is the news editor of Joystiq.com. Weigh in on The Exchange: Let us know what you think of violent video game regulation at email@example.com or on Twitter at@HiveBoston.

By RYAN J. FOLEYIOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) â¿¿ U.S. Sen. Tom Harkin's campaign fundraiser gave Iowa State University a list of possible donors to his namesake research institute, records show, though university officials have promised the powerful Democrat would have no influence over the center. The Harkin Institute of Public Policy would house the papers of the senator, who recently announced he would not seek a sixth term in 2014. The Iowa Board of Regents approved the institute in 2011 over objections of Republicans, who argued that naming it after a sitting lawmaker would raise ethical questions. Harkin has at times tried to distance himself from the institute by noting the university operates it. But emails obtained by The Associated Press under the public records law show Jeremy Gold, his campaign's finance director, suggested revisions to a fundraising brochure at Harkin's request and gave ISU's charitable foundation a list of people and corporations who could be solicited. Donations to the institute at Harkin's alma mater have recently slowed, and it has raised $3.3 million in pledges toward a planned $10 million endowment. Backers say it will conduct valuable research and preserve the papers of a lawmaker who helped ban discrimination against the disabled and shape farm policy. In releasing the list of potential donors to the AP, Iowa State blacked out names of 12 people and 16 companies on it, saying the law allows it to shield their identities. Gold sent the list to ISU Foundation Vice President Larissa Holtmyer Jones on Oct. 31, writing, "I understand that you will share with the appropriate individuals." Harkin on Friday defended his actions in connection with the institute, saying he is working to make it successful for students and researchers. "I've spoken positively to Iowans and others about the benefits I hope the Harkin Institute can bring to ISU. I've shown interest in its development. But others have done the direct fundraising," Harkin said. "Iowans know I would not connect any official action of mine to any contribution, and I'm confident my efforts to help ISU have been within established rules."

text: OEC Volumes (1991): Scientology organizational theory divides the "cycle of production" into seven primary areas of activity — each of which is represented by a division within a Scientology organization. Hubbard wrote Policy Letters to guide each of those divisions and in the OEC Volumes these have been grouped into seven separate volumes representing each division: personnel, promotion, fiscal, production, quality, distribution and leadership. Staff of a particular division turn to their corresponding volume for the policy that governs their division. The most highly-trained administrators study all seven volumes in the Organization Executive Course available both inside and outside the Church of Scientology.

January 8th, 2013 – International Living recently released its ranking of the top 22 retirement havens for 2013, ranking Costa Rica at #5. Here are IL's resident reporters summaries of what make the top 5 countries on the list so desirable
By Edd Staton
"Our life in Ecuador is everything we hoped for," says expat Mike Grimm, who arrived in Cuenca two-and-a-half years ago with his wife Patty. "We're totally happy and plan to live here the rest of our lives."
Such strong praise from the growing number of expats in Ecuador is common. Whether you live alongside a gently flowing river in a scenic valley, choose the cosmopolitan lifestyle of cities like Quito or Cuenca, or relax in smaller communities like Cotacachi or Vilcabamba…Ecuador exceeds even the loftiest expectations. And wherever you go, you'll meet friendly locals who are happy to welcome you to their beautiful country.
When you move to Ecuador, you can import your household goods duty-free. And this country offers the best-value real estate in the world. But for many, the true draw is the perfect climate. Ecuador lies on the equator. The beaches are tropical, but up in the Andes, the weather is mild and spring-like year-round.
Ecuador's major cities have top notch hospitals, clinics and well-trained physicians. All residents are eligible to participate in the country's Social Security health care system for incredibly low monthly premiums.
Out-of-pocket expenses for doctor visits, procedures, and drugs are a fraction of what you would pay in the U.S. When I visited my GP recently, it cost just $25—no waiting—and follow-up visits were free.
You'll have dinner out for $2.50, an hour-long massage for $25…a beer costs $0.85 and I know couples living on less than $900 a month excluding rent.
And if you want to keep busy with work, it's one of the best countries for an expat start-up. There are expats here running restaurants, gyms, schools and making money through import-export.
If all this isn't enough, seniors who are residents of Ecuador qualify for half price entertainment and local transport, discounted airfares, and refunds of sales tax.
Ecuadorians have a lot of respect for older people and you can cut in line at the store. As Cuenca resident Leann Bogyo says, "I've been blessed to fi nd such a beautiful place to live. Every day brings a new, exciting experience."
By Jessica Ramesch
"Easy" and "comfortable" are words you hear a lot from expats living inPanama. Take Karl Parker, 73, who came here from San Diego. "Panama's just an easy place to live," he says. "It has lots going for it…and the government stays off your back."
On paper, Panama's major draw is itsPensionado (pensioner) visa. Qualified pensioners get residence fairly quickly. And they are entitled to local retiree discounts…10% to 15% off consultations and medication…25% off at restaurants…and 50% off admission to movies, theaters, and such. Nearly every aspect of life comes with a discount.
But the expats here will tell you that's not why they chose to live here. "The discounts are very nice," they'll say. "The healthcare is excellent," they'll admit.
There are many English speakers here, the U.S. dollar is the currency, and the country is outside the hurricane belt. All these are pluses.
But as most will tell you, they chose Panama for the friendly people…the rainforest…the beaches. Where else can you bathe in the Pacific after breakfast and in the Atlantic before dinner…on the same day? Where else can you visit a cloud forest, spot a resplendent quetzal, and find yourself surrounded by hundreds of rare orchids, all in the same weekend?
Most expats will also tell you: "My only regret is that I didn't come sooner." They say that because their lives are better than they were before. There's something about the culture…about the idea that not everything has to be "now"…that permeates the air. By osmosis, if you move here from North America, you find yourself slowing down.
Kansas City native Robert Cook attributes this to a few things: There isn't a fast-food joint on every corner, and his produce is grown locally, he says. People don't like to rush, so he has learned to "take it easy." Since he has more time to socialize, he has made good friends among the locals (he married one, too).
Cook's family asked him if he was "on drugs" when he announced he was moving to Panama's highlands. "Now they envy me," he says. "My stress level is way down and I'm much healthier. They can see how happy I am."
By Keith Hockton
"Go back to New York to live? Never!" says 65-year-old Lorna Taylor. "We moved to Malaysia because of the weather, the golf and the low prices; our costs are now a third to a quarter of what they were in the U.S. We even have a maid come in and clean four times a week. We couldn't do that in New York. No, we'll never leave Penang."
I'm 30 years younger than Lorna and her husband John, and yet they still manage to beat my wife Lisa and me convincingly at tennis. They have a coach who comes twice a week, and for $10 a lesson I can see his efforts are clearly paying off.
I also completely understand and agree with their view about Malaysia. It has everything. Its weather is a tropical 82 F all year round and its beaches, islands and jungles are pristine. It has some of the region's best street food, great restaurants, bars, shopping malls and movie theaters—and it's all affordable.
Lisa and I rent a sea-view apartment for $1,000 a month—it comes with a shared pool and gym. We eat out five nights a week, keep a small sailboat, and our total budget is $1,719 a month. Two people can have a three-course meal here for $10.
A bagful of fresh fruit costs around $4. We also have a maid that comes once a week for four hours at a cost of $12.
Malaysia's an easy place to make friends and integrate as English is the unofficial first language. Lots of expats live in Kuala Lumpur and Penang and numerous organizations here can help you get settled and integrated. For example, the International Women's Association (formally The American Woman's Association) has just over 500 members who organize activities on a daily, weekly and monthly basis. On Mondays there are jungle walks, Tuesdays mah-jong (a type of card game), Wednesdays sewing. They sponsor trivia night once a week at a local pub and put on a ball once a year. For more information, see here.
Penang and Kuala Lumpur are also medical centers of excellence and every day two planeloads of medical tourists arrive in Malaysia for various treatments. Not only is the health care amazing but it's among the world's cheapest. And prescriptions here cost a fifth of what you pay at home.
The last time I was at the dentist I got a filling and a cleaning, which cost $22.50. In the U.S. this would set me back around $180. We can also buy property, land, and houses and condominiums freehold—something you can't do elsewhere in Asia.

"You don't have to look far to find fascinating cultural traditions here," says expat Deborah Mackay about Mexico, her new home. "Music, dancing, all kinds of colorful exhibitions are a regular part of life. And the cherry on the cake is that they're usually free!"
Mexico's colorful, vibrant culture does rank high with expats who live here…but it is just the cherry—and the icing—on a very rich cake. For expats, Mexico is an easy, convenient choice…a largely First-World country, at bargain prices, right on their doorstep. No wonder a million or more expats make Mexico their home.
Today's Mexico offers modern highways and airports, cable and satellite TV, Internet, and other goodies expats enjoy at home. Want a big U.S.-style washer and dryer or a monster refrigerator?
No problem in Mexico—you'll even find familiar brands. Yet the overall cost of living can be as little as half what you'd pay in the U.S. or Canada.
Health care, too, is good to excellent. (So good, in fact, that many Mexican hospitals do a thriving business in medical tourism.) Across the board, health care—including doctor's visits, hospital stays, lab tests, and devices—costs a quarter to a half of what you'd pay in the U.S. That's assuming, of course, that you even pay out of pocket. If you hold a valid residence visa, you can sign up for Mexico's national health-care system—which has a top cost of about $300 a year.
Rent a comfortable, mid-sized house in Mexico for about $800 a month, while $1,500 can get you a large colonial or a chic beachside apartment. Looking to buy? You can still find comfortable homes for around $150,000, depending on the town.
And one of Mexico's biggest pluses is its sheer size and variety. If you want beach, Mexico has thousands of miles of it—chic resorts, sleepy beach towns, and everything in between. Prefer cool, mountain scenery?
Mexico has that, too. And there are colonial cities galore, including expat favorites like Oaxaca, San Cristóbal de las Casas, and San Miguel de Allende. In fact, Mexico has at least a dozen expat havens where you can ease almost effortlessly into life abroad.
Whatever you're looking for…in big, beautiful Mexico you're sure to find it.

"In Costa Rica I have one of the best doctors I've ever had in my life, Dr. Sanchez. And after my heart attack 12 years ago I saw some of the top doctors in the United States," says Bob Lux, a nearly two-year resident of the Arenal region of Costa Rica. "My blood pressure is under control, and I feel terrific."
Bob, 62, and his wife Stacey, 55, just got their Costa Rican residence a few months ago. They're pensionados, or retirees. The requirement of $1,000 per month from Social Security or a pension means that getting residence is easy enough that just about anybody can do it, says Bob.
A huge reason they moved down was health care. Bob was paying $340 a month for prescriptions to control blood pressure and cholesterol, on top of more than a $1,000 a month for insurance coverage for him and his wife.
Once they became residents, they joined the universal healthcare system, known as Caja. Bob and Stacey pay $49 a month—the amount is based on income.
After that, care is free. "My blood pressure went off the charts. I went to the local clinic. They gave me fluids and an EKG. Zero dollars," says Bob.
The couple has also found they can live comfortably on Bob's Social Security and small pension. In the states, they'd still have to work to make ends meet.
John Buford, 65, and his wife, Caryl, 64, moved to San Ramon in February 2011. It was an escape from northwest Illinois' bitter winters, and triple-digit-hot summer.
"This is the most stable Latin American country, closest to the U.S, with the climate we were looking for," says John. They found their spot about six miles outside of this Central Valley town, where they live on nearly an acre at 3,800 feet.
San Ramon's active expat community, specifically the Community Action Alliance group, attracted the couple as well. "We found this organization that's focused on community development. We're still young. We wanted to do things in and for the community we live in," says John.

In its five years with a senior class, Vista del Lago has accomplished a lot. One thing it hadn't done was reach a Sac-Joaquin Section baseball final. That changed on Wednesday night when senior Andrew Schantz threw a complete game and hit a two run homer for a 2-0 win over Sierra.
After dropping game two of the semi-finals 6-1, Vista del Lago came back to beat Sierra 2-0 to earn a championship date with Manteca on Monday. The Eagles were eliminated by Oakdale each of the past two years, but beat the Mustangs 7-6 in single elimination play before defeating the Timberwolves in a best of three series. The 26th win set a school record for wins.
"Usually when we get to game three, we always have Oakdale's ace," Vista del Lago head coach Scott Seffens said. "I think the fact we beat Oakdale was huge in the first round. They beat us in football twice and we have a lot of football guys. To win on Saturday (Game 1) was also huge. We've never had a win in the first one. Those guys (Sierra) are really good, especially offensively.
In the middle of a historic night for the program was Schantz, a senior who would be a force at the JUCO level. With two outs in the fourth inning, Schantz took the first pitch he saw over the left field fence to stake himself to a 2-0 lead. Like any good starter, Schantz threw up zeroes after the big inning, including setting down 10 Sierra hitters in a row at one point. The right-hander finished with a three hitter and nine strikeouts. He controlled multiple pitches, including a good curveball that was an out pitch.
"It was really working. We were in the bullpen and even coach and I were saying its dirty today," Schantz said of his curveball. "It feels awesome. There is no better feeling in the world. I couldn't be happier about my team.
Prior to Schantz's performance, Sierra forced the decisive third game with a 6-1 win. Junior Leo Soto picked up his ninth win with a 72 pitch complete game. The Timberwovles scored two runs in the first inning and added four runs in the third highlighted by a two RBI single form Kyle Oden. Catcher Jake Pruitt had two hits with a first inning double.
The winner of Vista del Lago and Manteca will likely finish at the top ranked Division IV team in the final NCP rankings.
Other Highlights
Theron Kay (Baylor) and Hunter Parkinson (San Diego) matched up in a pitchers' duel to start the Central Coast Section Open Division playoffs though neither factored in the decision. Kay went nine innings of five-hit ball and seven strikeouts. Parkinson struck out 10 batters in seven innings of work. Kyle Marinconz had the game winning hit to drive in Bryson Brigman. Valley Christian will take on Scotts Valley, which upset Los Gatos, on Saturday.
San Benito continued its playoff success with a 4-3 win over Serra in 10 innings. Zackry Moeller had a walk-off home run and Hunter Haworth threw six innings of relief for the win. Serra right-hander Matt Blais threw seven innings in getting a no-decision. Next up for San Benito is Mitty, which beat Terra Nova in the first round.
It came a year too late, but Casa Grande beat Campolindo (1-0) in the North Coast Section Division II playoffs. This season's version was a 1 vs. 16 and sees an end to the Cougars' four straight section title run. Chris Joaquin went 2-for-3 with a run scored for the Gauchos, which were section runner-ups in 2013. Both top seeds in the Division II and III playoffs have been eliminated.
Acalanes beat Del Norte (6-1) and Drake beat El Cerrito (6-4) to set up a very good Saturday night matchup. The Dons and Pirates are the top two teams in the bracket, but will face off in the quarterfinals. Drake ace Joe Ryan threw 2.1 perfect innings of relief, but could be in line to start.
Tokay hasn't won at least 20 games since 2008, but it is one win away from the SJS Division I South title after beating pre-tournament favorite Turlock (2-1). Turlock will face St. Mary's-Stockton with the winner needing two wins over Tokay on Friday.

Simply amazing. I was looking fo some kind of product that would give me a glow. Since Im darker skinned, most products marketed as bronzers are like highlighters or just an all over face powder on me. One of the MA's suggested this, over I think it was Gold Spun MSF. This power has a sheen to it, not glittery at all. All you need is a little bit because its super pigmented. I use it just about everyday and it looks great. Gives me def the glow, or inner light to my face that Im looking for. Loves it <3. And plus they give you sooooooooooooo much and you need to little lol that u'll have this forever
