A Print Subscription to the Indie Game Magazine includes 6 Bi-Monthly Issues. Buying each issue individually would cost you over $60, but a subscription saves you about 40% and is only $39.95 in the United States. The print version saves you from having to download any software and you won't need to sit in front of a computer to read and enjoy an issue. There's no compatibility or reading issues when you can just carry your copy of the Indie Game Magazine around with you. If you're not sold on a print subscription, purchase a single issue from Magcloud and see for yourself how great IGM looks in print. If you decide to go with a print subscription later, we'll happily refund you the cost of your first issue and fold it into your annual subscription. Print Subscriptions are available in the United States, Canada, and United Kingdom. If you don't live in one of those countries, contact us about international subscriptions.
All IndieGameMag's Printed Editions are served by MagCloud. MagCloud is a print on Demand Service powered by HP labs. With MagCloud every magazine is printed to order, so there's no issues of IGM sitting around in a warehouse, no paper wasted, and no major impact on the environment. MagCloud uses HP Indigo technology, so every issue is custom-printed when it's ordered. Printing on demand means no big print runs, which means no pre-publishing expense. Magazines are brilliant full color on 80lb paper with saddle-stitched covers. They look awesome.

text: Photos: Daniel Murphy, Brooke Siegel, Design Hotels When you crave adventure, there's boating in India and volcano climbing in Chile. But when it's pristine beaches and picturesque sunsets you're after, stick to the classics — like the unparalleled (honeymoon-approved) beauty of Mykonos and Santorini.GETTING THERE After flying into Athens, it's just a hop (by plane) to either island. Recover from your flight in serene Santorini before moving to more bustling Mykonos. Several ferries make the two-and-a-half-hour trip between the islands but none faster than the moderately priced Hellenic Seaways (about $67). Pony up a little extra to ride business class. If you have time, pit stop on smaller islands, like Paros, Hydra, and Spetses. Everything shuts down completely from October to April, but shoulder season is an excellent time to dodge crowds. STAY Hotel deals are there for the taking. In Santorini, pick a spot that reflects the Cycladic architecture — white-washed curved walls, blue doors — like Mystique (pictured above), located just outside the charming town of Oia. Built into a cliff, the hotel has 22 rooms with oversize patios and unobstructed, awe-inspiring views of the caldera (the giant volcanic island). In Mykonos Town, the ideally located Mykonos Theoxenia sits just above the famous windmills in walking distance of the village's best restaurants and nightclubs. The spacious, brightly accented rooms have mod '60s flair. EAT The guidebooks will all tell you that 1800 and Ambrosia are musts in Santorini — and they're right. But don't pass up Amoudi, the teeny fishing village at the foot of 200-plus steps. At the bottom, you'll find a few tavernas. The best is Dimitris (pictured). Share a whole fish — whatever's caught that day — while watching the boats bob at sea. Mykonos Town has a bustling foodie scene: Modern Argentine steak house Uno Con Carne would be at home in Miami. Go to Katrin for French, Sale e Pepe for Italian, and Appaloosa for Mexican (yes, Mexican). Ask locals to point you in the right direction — narrow, winding streets make addresses obsolete. For lunch, pull up a stool at any gyro stand.WHAT TO DO Rent an ATV in Santorini and vroom around to the different-colored beaches (red, white, and black). Simply navigating the twisty roads is an adventure. Follow the crowds west at sunset. Transplants say you never get used to the beauty, which garners applause every night. A sunset sail is a must. During the day, the club scene rages at Nammos, the Nikki Beach of Mykonos (overpriced cocktails, Missoni-clad revelers, spotty service). Savor hummus at a restaurant along Akti Kambani, which has charming views of the old port and its massive cruise ships, then walk (or run — depending on the tide) through slightly sunken Little Venice. Nightlife starts around midnight and goes till early. The place to be depends on day of the week and season (ask your concierge). STUFF TO KNOW - The islands are why resort wear was invented. Pack ample cover-ups and sandals. Santorini's comprised of cliffs, steps, and cobblestone — do not attempt heels. - There's no need to rent a car on either island. But in Mykonos, catching a cab — and getting dropped off — at taxi stands will save you some euro. - It's true: No one eats before 10 p.m. Ouzo is an acquired taste; Greek wine is an undiscovered delight. - On the plane, read Michael Lewis's surprisingly funny Vanity Fair article about the Greek financial crisis. Once you arrive, get lost in John Fowles's The Magus, which takes place on a faux Greek island. - Whether ATVing on Santorini or walking winding Mykonos Town, you will get lost. As one local said, "It's tradition." Photos: Giorgos Lizardos / Courtesy of Mystique; Courtesy of Design Hotels; Daniel Murphy; Brooke Siegel Longing for a warm-weather getaway?

Other city departments are also looking to expand and meet other city needs.Adjournment: Next meeting is Friday, November 16, 2012.

Educational Philosophy: Welcome to Principles of Management (MG 352)! As outlined by Rue and Byars, in Management: Skills and Applications, management is part of every business person's life. Management concepts apply equally to public, private, not-for-profit, religious organizations, large corporations, or small entrepreneurial firms. The principles of management are usually performed by the three levels or types of managers—senior management, middle management, and supervisory management. By studying the principles, knowledge about management can be categorized and examined.
Management skills (conceptual, human relations, and technical) are closely related. Leaders in the modern business environment come from a variety of backgrounds. The rich diversity present in modern management adds differing viewpoints and intellectual skills that enable an organization firm to compete in the international and domestic environment. (Rue and Byars)
Together, we will learn the key principles used in managing an organization: decision-making, ethical responsibilities, planning, operations, organizing, teams, staffing, development, motivation, leadership, conflict, controlling, rewarding and managing change. We will use readings, videos, lectures, case studies, self checks, and discussions as knowledge building tools. This junior level course cumulates with summative assessments that include a research paper and proctored final examination.
Learning Outcomes: Core Learning Outcomes

Note that all discussions questions will be posted in eCollege, by the instructor, three days before the week begins (the Friday prior to the weeks start).

Ensure all questions posed are answered. Percentage points assigned are as follows: 2% for 7 weeks for a total of 14%.
Discussion, (one's peer reviews) are provided during weeks 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, and 8. It is completed by commenting on other classmates' responses.

A light curl in your hair is a sexy way to get ready for your date night. Soft, subtle waves add the perfect effect for any outfit. From jeans and a smart top to a glitzy dress, glamorous waves will make people come out of the woodwork to tell you how nice your hair looks.
Where to start:
Day old hair is the best to start with when curling your hair but, if you have washed it, add a drop of mouse to the roots to give it some lift. Get out your old rollers you probably haven't used in awhile and plug them in. I recently purchased Remington's 8900 Pearl Ceramic Heated Clip Rollers and love them. The heat quickly and take less than five minutes to curl you hair. If you are in a hurry, no problem!
What to Do Next:
I use long, silver, metal salon clips to section my hair. With a wide tooth comb, grab most of your hair except a small 2" section from the nape of the neck. Twist and attach to the top of your head with these clips. My hair is thin enough I only use one but you may need more! With a roller, take a small section and roll the hair up and pulled away from your head until the roller is covered in hair. Clip to your head. Continue doing this until the bottom layer is done.
Unhook the salon clip and section your hair again in a 2" section above the lower rollers. Continue rolling until all of the hair is rolled up. When you get near your ears, really pull your hair away from your face and back towards the back of your head when you are rolling. When you clip the roller, it should keep it from falling forward and burning your ear. That is not a fun experience!
Finish Up:
Unroll your hair. Do not brush! Spray with your favorite hairspray. I am using Mark. Locks in Place Buildable Hold Hairspray now and really like it.
Take your bang section and twist it to the top of your head. Make sure it has a small poof and secure with a clip or bobby pins! Add your lips and head out for your fun night out!

The rebuild is a huge task and not everything can be done at once. Determining the rebuild schedule is a complex and important task. There is a well thought out prioritisation process in place to drive the schedule.
Many things are considered as part of the prioritisation process. Priority is being given to the worst-damaged areas that affect the highest number of people. Find out more about the work schedule by reading the frequently asked questions or reading the media release.
The timings shown in the interactive SCIRT 5 Year Work Schedule and Rebuild Map (or this downloadable PDF) give a good indication of when works will be carried out across the city. The timeframes indicate when construction is expected to begin in a particular area. Some projects will take many months to complete. Details are subject to change as the rebuild progresses and we learn more about what's required. The schedule will be updated each quarter.
SCIRT 6 Month Work ScheduleThe 6 Month Work Schedule will be updated each quarter. SCIRT's 6 Month Work Schedule sets out the projects planned to be in construction in the next 6 months. You can download the 6 months work schedule. Before we begin construction on a project we will provide more detailed information in the 'Project info' section.
Zoom out by clicking the (-) button in (top left corner of the map above) to view SCIRT projects displayed by Council Wards. Clicking a ward in the right hand "Work in your area" pane will display all current and future projects in that ward.
Clicking a project title in the right hand pane will centre the map on that project and show you any Work Notices or Work Notice Updates related to that project.

Not so great..
By MaggieMay
from London
About Me First Time Parent, Stay At Home Parent
The cookies themselves are not too bad although the colours are a bit bland, not as vibrant as other products I've purchased from LR. But the cookie jar is poorly made. Plastic feels really cheap and there are some sharp edges/seams in the inside which have the potential to scratch young skin. Also doesn't appear durable. Not so happy. But the potential was there for a great product. Such a shame.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

My grandaughter loves this toy! Carries cookies in her mouth as she crawls around. Loves to clap them together and slide them across the kitchen floor. First toy she gets out of her toy basket every time!
Fun Toy for my 2 year old
By Sternrichards
from Bloomington, IL
About Me Parent
My son loves to play with the cookies. He has a kitchen that he puts the cookies on a baking sheet and pulls them out of the oven saying HOT, HOT! Very cute! My only big complaint is that the lid just will not stay on, this kind of makes clean up a little hard becous the lid just pops off and falls to the floor. Other then that its a great toy for any age. Hope they make changes to the lid.

Great toy, but lid won't stay on jar.
By Jo Ann

About Me Teacher
This is a great educational toy but the lid on the jar will not stay on for anything. That probably bugs me more than the children.

My children love this toy!
By cecilewhite
from Illinois
My children love this toy! They use it for pretend play and also as an educational toy. They have learned numbers, colors and shapes with all of their Learning Resource Toys (we also have the Rainbow Color Cones and the Sorting Shapes Cupcakes). These toys are well made and definitely worth the price. It's nice to have toys that don't require batteries and allow the children to use their imagination.

What is going to be your last thought,
when one second from hell, is all you've got.
I think you will cry, scream, and pray,
but with only a moment, for a lifetime of sin, what could you say.
When you recall there is a God, and his kingdom is about to arrive,
and you know only those forgiven of sin, may enter and remain alive.
To think something at that time will be no use,
for you could never come up with a good enough excuse.
And on judgement day, when your final chance for salvation has past,
when all you can hope for, is to be sent to the fire last.
I think the Lord our God will shed a tear,
for the time to love you nomore is here.....

In this short article, I want to give you a few ideas that will help you get to sleep at night and increase the quality of your sleep. So if you currently have any sleeping problems, then you may want to pay attention to every word in this article.
You may have heard that if you are dealing with sleeping problems that you should not have naps during the day. But time and time again research has proven naps to be a powerful way to rejuvenate yourself, give you energy, and increase focus and concentration. All of these things are lacking when you have problems with your sleep. So I recommend that you take a nap but make sure that is not longer than 20 minutes, Otherwise you can wake up feeling groggy.
One powerful tip that I learned about a few years ago, while watching a Alteril review video, was to go outside and get some sunlight as soon as I would wake up in the morning. The reason why you should do this is because when bright sunlight hits your body it's a natural signal to your biological clock to wake up. This can also help you to establish a better wake up routine.
Another thing I learnt was to make your room slightly colder at night rather than warmer. A cold bedroom has been shown to be a favourable way to fall asleep at night. Especially if you sleep with a heavy blanket.
One last quick tip is to exercise intensely a few hours before bed. Now by a few hours I mean you want to exercise in the early to late afternoon. This will also help reduce stress and allow you to experience physical tiredness which can help you sleep at night time.
Everybody wants to lose weight, look fit, attractive, and energetic. But how many people can honestly put there hand in the air and admit that they are the epitome of these qualities? I don't think many people would have the confidence to raise their hand. Especially since so many people are overweight in this day and age. Obesity is reaching new highs every year.
So what can be done to help people achieve these valuable qualities, which so many people desire?
Well one awesome solution is the HCG 1234 program, which has been designed by a doctor and given a lot of praise on the Doctor Oz show, where he gave it his full endorsement. To learn more about this diet just do a search for HCG 1234 review and you will find a ton of useful information.
Apart from the diet system I mentioned above, let's keep things really basic. I'm sure you intuitively know right now what you need to do to lose weight. It's simple. Increase your level of physical activity, yes I'm talking about exercise. And also stop eating crappy foods and replace them with healthy fat burning foods.
Simple right?
I don't know why everybody makes this so complex.
Just do the right things and you will reap the rewards. But the trick is to take massive action and turn these actions into habits. Now, this can be a bit difficult but it's definitely not impossible and when your fat burning actions become a habit, weight loss will become easy.
Bee pollen is considered one of nature's most complete and nourishing foods. Approximately 40% protein, bee pollen is super rich in essential amino acids, and is readily assimilated into the body. In fact, bee pollen has more protein and amino acids pound for pound than beef, steak or eggs!
Not only is bee pollen rich in proteins and amino acids, but it's a powerhouse of vitamins and minerals as well – supplying us with almost every essential nutrient necessary for promoting good health.
The Institute of Apiculture, Taranov in Russia declares that bee pollen has one of the highest sources of rutin (a powerful anti-oxidant and circulatory enhancer) found in nature, as well as being packed with both RNA and DNA – the building blocks of our biological body.
While science can tell us approximately what bee pollen consists of, the one thing they can't do is duplicate it! In experiments where artificial bee pollen was fed to young honey bees, the bees simply expired. (Natural is better!)
Why use MX Bee Pollen?
Energy: Most energy supplements give you a short boost with many harmful side effects. Bee Pollen gives you sustained energy naturally when exercising with home gym equipment like the super multi bowflex pr1000 – all without additives or sugars.
Immune boosting: Bee pollen contains many vitamins and amino acids known to boost the immune system helping stave off many common illnesses as well as help you after illness to regain your strength and energy levels.
Natural: Bee pollen is collected naturally and contains no additives that would hurt the pollen. This Superfood is often craved by many animals who brave bee stings just to get to the pollen and honey. It contains many of the vitamins and minerals in a perfectly balanced and digestible form not found in many multivitamins.
It is carefully collected and dried as to prevent any damage to the valuable nutrients from the elements. If you are feeling the effects of aging or a bad diet, why not try bee pollen as a supplement to your efforts and you will get the revived metabolism and energy to help you get through the day and help you become much more healthy.
Bee pollen is a mixture of bee saliva, enzymes and pollen that the bees have brought back to the hive on their bodies. The bees mix the pollen into granules and sometimes add honey and nectar. Bee pollen contains vitamins, minerals, carbohydrates, protein, and lipids.
Bee pollen varies between batches and location since the pollen components are unique to the plants the bees have visited. If pollen is collected from residential or farming areas where pesticides and other chemicals are used, these will remain will appear in final product.
That's why Pollen from worker bees is so good, since it is collected from bees that live in areas next to national parks bathed in fresh Antarctic winds. Bee pollen can be confused with propolis, royal jelly, honey, honeycomb, although none of them actually contain bee pollen. If you want to ba;ance your weight, use bee pollen. To gain weight naturally if you are under weight – you can try out cb-1 weight gainer... A proven formula with excellent weight gain results.
Propolis is a resinous mixture of tree sap, and botanical matter that bees combine and use to keep their hives free of infections. Royal jelly is secreted by worker bees and fed to bee larva and the queen bee. It is considered a "Wonder Food". Another good product for your skin and beating wart problems is Wartrol… wartrol effectiveness for beating warts is now proven globally.
How It Works
Bee pollen contains many substances including antioxidants, anti-fungal and antimicrobial compounds, and flavonoids with potential benefits to general health and nutrition. The combination of these components help with energy and targets that sluggish feeling and general tiredness without the use of stimulants.
How to Use It
1 to 2 capsules per day is sufficient.
Where to Find It
Bee pollen can only be found in dietary supplements.
Side Effects
Bee pollen can cause allergic reactions in people with pollen allergies, or who have had serious reactions to bee stings. Pregnant and nursing women should not use bee pollen under any circumstances.
My endless pursuit for excellence has taken me down many different paths in life. I have travelled in all sorts of directions. My ambition really is simple. Just to be better. That's it. I don't want to have to accept myself for who I currently am. Each week I like to improve myself and continue to grow and evolve.
This is not always an easy thing to do. But I continue to pursue this excellence and it's paid off in many different ways. I'm absolutely relentless when it comes to change. I am not scared of it like most people are. Instead, I embrace it. I welcome it. I devour it.
Change to me is the greatest thing in the world. But the type of change I'm talking about is obviously positive change. But also the type of change where you are 100% aware of what is going on because change without awareness can be a big waste of time.
One thing that has helped me immensely on this pursuit of excellence is a one pill. Yup, that's right I'm on drugs! Only kidding. The white pill I'm talking about is a totally natural formula called CILTEP and it has a whole range of mind blowing effects that have really sky rocket my success levels.
CILTEP has the power to significantly boost motivation levels. It can take even the most boring of tasks and actually make them interesting. It helps me become a focus samurai. And the energy it gives me lasts all day.
Definitely something to check out if you too want to become better each and every day.
Throughout the years anti-wrinkle creams come and go, from many different companies, and many different formulations, hundreds hit the market every year, and hundreds disappear, never to be heard from again. However, retinol wrinkle creams have withstood the test of time, and endured for many years as one of the premier anti-wrinkle creams, because they actually work.
And the truth is, there have been major medical studies that actually prove that anti-wrinkle creams, whose main active ingredient is retinol, can reduce wrinkles and slow the aging of the skin. But now that you take that as fact, how do you find the best anti-wrinkle cream with retinol in it, to use on your own face?
Retinol is actually an animal-based form of vitamin A, also known as retinol A or retinoic acid, to do the job of reducing wrinkles. While having a sufficient percentage is important for effectiveness, if the retinol is too high you can experience a burning of the skin or rash, and both can be unsightly.
Retinol cream at Beauty Reporters
Unfortunately, many of the topical retinol wrinkle creams don't state the exact quantities on the outside of the package. And, if retinol is only listed as an ingredient, without giving percentage, most likely it's in a very small quantity and not enough to be effective. In this case you would want to skip over that particular product and go on to one who actually does list retinol by percentage.
In the beginning, when trying out retinol wrinkle cream for the first time most people should look for a cream with the percentage of 0.2% to 0.5% to test and make sure they are not overly sensitive to the main ingredient. Once you've used the compound for a while your skin can become acclimated and you will then be able to increase the percentage and receive more benefit than if you used a lower percentage retinol wrinkle cream.
In conclusion, as you search for a retinol wrinkle cream, start with a lower percentage, acclimate your skin, then slowly increase percentage, being patient not to overdo it. If you follow these instructions you're sure to receive the benefits of retinol and have a more youthful wrinkle free appearance.
Most people think of rheumatoid arthritis as being a condition of the bones and joints, but is is an autoimmune disease that affects the other parts of the body as well. There can be lumps of tissues that will appear under the skin, heels, fingers, elbows and forearms.
Inflammation of the blood vessels can cause skin changes and these can appear as lesions or ulcers.
Rheumatiod arthritis can also affect the eyes. The episclera, which is the thin membrane that covers the white of the eye, or the sclera is often inflamed by the presence of rheumatoid arthritis. Usually, it is a fairly mild condition, but the eye can become painful and reddened. If the white of the eye becomes inflamed, it can be much more serious and can result in the loss of vision.
Sjogren's Syndrome is a condition where the immune system of a person actually attacks the glands that produce the tears in the eyes. These glands are called the lacrimal glands. The result of this condition is that the eyes will feel very dry and gritty. If this situation is not treated the conjunctive, or the membrane that covers the eye, can become scarred and so can the cornea suffer the same condition.
Dry eyes are a common condition anyway for patients that have rheumatoid arthritis. The eyes can feel very irritated, they can be painful, and burning, and have a sensitivity to light. It will feel much of the time that there is something stuck in the eye between the eyelid and the eyeball itself.
If the cornea is inflamed, which it often is from scleritis, the ability for the patient to see will be greatly limited. Potentially, an ailment that can result from dry eyes and inflammation is corneal infection, or conjunctivitis. An even more serious, by rare problem than can develop is a condition called corneal melt.
There are certain medications that are used in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis that can also become problematic, such as plaquenil and prednisone (but don't be too quick to bypass more natural arthritis medicine). Glaucoma can develop, which is a disease that exhibits extra pressure from within the eyeball. Symptoms can develop such as blurred vision, pain in the eyes and gradual loss of vision. The application of eye drops is the usual course of action for the treatment, and sometimes it requires surgery.
Any unusual symptoms, pain, blurred vision, or any other abnormality, should prompt a visit to your doctor.
Omega-3 fish oil has many health benefits as shown by the incredible amount of research that has taken place over the years. Research continues as more benefits are being discovered.
In this article we discuss the benefits of omega-3 fish oil for our eyes.
Failing eyesight in older people
It has been shown that failing eyesight can be reduced by taking omega 3 fatty acids.
We often associate failing eyesight with age and as such we tend to go for spectacles or glasses which seem to solve the problem – until we find out later that we need stronger ones – and so on!
However, studies have shown that a diet containing omega-3 fatty acids can protect our eyes and maintain good vision as we get older.
We can obtain these fatty acids by eating fatty or oily fish such as wild salmon, sardines, herring or by taking omega 3 fish oil supplements.
For vegetarians algae are an alternative option.
How does omega-3 improve our eyesight?
An essential part of our diet is dietary fat which is an important source of energy.
The cardiovascular, reproductive, immune, and nervous systems are helped and supported by these long-chain essential fatty acids.
There are two of these essential fatty acids and these are omega-3 and omega-6
The right kind of fat is needed for our bodies to function normally and that includes our eyes.
A recent study by the National Eye Institute (NEI) has shown that supplementation with DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) prevents loss of vision that is usually related to aging.
What is DHA (docosahexaenoic acid)?
DHA is an omega-3 fatty acid that is in all parts of the body and by far is the major structural fat that is found in both the brain and in the retina.
The study above continues by saying that omega-3 can protect elderly people from macular degeneration and dry-eye syndrome. It also says that it helps the proper draining of intraocular fluid which if it does not drain properly can cause glaucoma followed by high eye pressure, damage to the optic nerve and vision loss.
Research continues into the effect of DHA on macular degeneration by the University of Alberta research team.
Infant Vision
Studies have also shown that DHA is vital for the growth of infant sensory, motor and cognitive development in the last few months of pregnancy and that an infant's visual acuity is closely linked to the DHA concentration at birth.
Supplementing with omega-3 fatty acids both during pregnancy and after the birth will give your child a good start in life.
How to maintain good eye health
A varied healthy diet containing as much omega-3 fatty acids as possible and limiting omega-6 fatty acids will lead to continued good vision and health and wellness as well.
Do you wish to have a lighter complexion? There are plenty of skin lightening products on the market but not all of them are effective. The following tips will help you get the lighter skin you always wanted.
Look for a quality skin lightening cream. Avoid products that are mostly filled with water content and do some research on the ingredients used. Chemical peels usually work but they are not recommended if you have sensitive skin or tend to get acne. If you want to use a skin lightening cream, select a recognizable brand and make sure it contains effective ingredients.
Try using natural remedies to lighten your complexion. Lemon juice is a safe way to lighten your complexion as long as you do not have any acne or small cuts on your skin. Avoid exposing your skin to the sun after applying lemon juice. You can also use milk or papaya soap if lemon juice irritates your skin.
Exfoliating your skin regularly is a good way to lighten your complexion. Exfoliating accelerates the elimination of old skin cells, which means the cells that have absorbed melanin will disappear and be replaced with new cells that have not yet been exposed to the sun. There are plenty of exfoliating products but you can also use natural remedies.
Avoid exposing your skin to the sun. Any kind of exposure to UV rays activate the production of melanin and makes your skin darker. You should always wear a good sunscreen as well as protective clothes. You need to apply sunscreen and wear protective clothing at all times. Your skin is still exposed to UV rays even if the weather is not sunny.
You will get good results if you make skin lightening a part of your daily skin care routine. Find a more natural product that you like or a home remedy that really works for you, and start using it on a daily basis. Apply a good moisturizer and a sun screen every morning to reduce the production of melanin and your skin will soon look a lot lighter.
These tips will help you get a lighter complexion. You might have to try a few different products before you find one that really works for you but you will get good results once you find a good skin lightening cream. You can also try natural remedy if you have sensitive skin, and don't forget to protect your skin from the sun.
Millions of people are carrying excess weight; accordingly there are masses of formulas, potions and supplements available which claim to work effectively when it comes to weight loss.
In this Capsiplex review we will give you the lowdown on a slimming pill that actually does work.
What is Capsiplex?
It is a specially designed slimming pill that contains 100% all-natural ingredients. These high-grade ingredients increase your metabolism and help to speed up your body's fat burning process. When you couple these two things together it equals highly effective weight loss.
The reason it is more effective than other formulas which may contain similar ingredients is due to the unique coating the pill comes in.
The coating does not dissolve in your stomach acids as other formulas do like orabrush. It bypasses your stomach and dissolves in your intestines. This process is totally safe and offers maximum benefits when it comes to losing that unwanted weight.
Metabolism and Fat Burning
If you want to lose weight you need to increase your metabolism. The quicker your metabolism is the more calories you will burn. The more calories you burn the more weight you lose.
The same goes for fat burning. If your body speeds up its fat burning process to produce extra energy then you will use this energy to burn more calories.
The most important section in this article is coming up so please don't stop reading now!
How much weight can you lose?
This is really down to your starting weight. When you read Capsiplex review articles they will often give an example as follows:
If you are looking to lose one stone in weight then with regular use of this slimming pill you should expect to lose around 4 lbs in your first week. Week on week after this you should lose between 1 and 2 lbs.
If you complement the use of this highly effective slimming pill with a sensible and well-balanced diet the chances are you will exceed the above figures, and your figure will look far trimmer!
One thing we must touch on is something that many people who are overweight do not want to hear about and that is:
Sorry folks, but it is a fact; far too many of us are doing little or no exercise. You really do need to get into a routine and start. This does not mean you have to rush out and buy gym membership.
You can start in the comfort of your own home and start with gentle exercises or light aerobics.
When you understand such exercises only need to be carried out 3 or 4 times a week and for just 30 minutes at a time you will surely wonder why you have not started.
Add to this a brisk walk every other day and you are on the right road to far better health both physically and mentally. You will also achieve the weight loss you are looking for.
Bottom line
No one wants to be overweight! I hope this Capsiplex review has helped you to understand three things: Eat a sensible and well-balanced diet; carry out some reasonable but regular exercise, and take Capsilex on a regular basis.
If you do these three things you will not only lose weight but you will feel far better within yourself.
Are you a man who wants to change your body and become fit, healthy, and attractive. It surprises me that so many men are consumed today with the way they look. It used to be only women who wanted to change the appearance of their body and would fuss over their looks. But more and more men all over the world are starting to become more aware of the way they look and they would like to do something to change their image.
I used to never care about my appearance but this trend has stopped. The reason why it has stopped is simply because more and more of my friends are starting to become consumed with the way they look. Also woman now want men to look a certain way. And if they don't look this way then it can be difficult to attract the women you want.
Recently a program came out called the Adonis Golden Index which highlighted the fact that there is an ideal body proportion that women are attracted to naturally. This program goes into extreme detail about how women perceive men and how with the right diet and exercise program a man can create the ideal body that would not only attract women but make them feel better about themselves.
So if you're looking for a weight training and diet program then I thoroughly recommend Adonis Golden Ratio because it is a detailed, comprehensive, and highly effective system that has achieved amazing results with men all across the world.

High blood pressure is sometimes called 'the silent killer'. Below we will look at why, and some of the effective herbs for high blood pressure problems to see how they can help maintain your blood pressure at good levels.
While the medical term for high blood pressure is hypertension. It is also known as 'the silent killer'. The reason for this is that initially you do not have any obvious symptoms.
A wise thing to do is to make sure you regularly have your blood pressure checked.
If it is found that your readings are high you can then nip any problems in the bud and take steps to get it back to acceptable levels.
Let us look at just four herbs that have been used for centuries when it comes to controlling and preventing cardiovascular and high blood pressure problems.
While everyone will know of garlic it may not be so well known that a fully grown garlic bulb can grow up to one metre high and contain up to 20 cloves.
Garlic originated in central Asia and now grows in many places including the beautiful countryside of Southern France and Italy. The extract which comes from fully mature garlic plants is very rich in the nutrient allicin.
This shrub blooms in the month of May and sprouts small red berries. Facefx when used with this berry is said to remove many wrinkles… The whole plant contains nutrients such as procyanidins and flavonoids.
It is a member of the rose family and you will find many different species which are native to North America.
Another of the herbs for high blood pressure prevention is:
This extract is a root which belongs to the radish family. The Chinese have used it for centuries to heal a variety of illnesses. It can grow up to 20 inches long and as much as four inches in diameter.
When it comes to cardiovascular health it is felt that this extract complements other ingredients in a good quality all-natural supplement that will help to control your blood pressure.
This is yet another ingredient that has been used for centuries in natural healing. It is a tall perennial shrub which blooms in early spring.
This herb continues to produce its fruit until the fall. While its strong green leaves remain all-year round.
These are just four of the many herbs which have been used for centuries to treat high blood pressure and cardiovascular problems.
You can find these in good quality all-natural supplements and regular use of them will do you the world of good.
If you wish to avoid high blood pressure problems and yeast infections, you really do need to address your current diet and exercise regime.
By eating a sensible and well-balanced diet and taking some regular exercise you will be doing yourself the power of good.
Add into the mix a supplement that contains herbs for high blood pressure and you are on the right route to healthy living!

Contemporary Hermès watch named after Grace Kelly. Gold-plate hardware, white face and caramel leather band. Quartz movement. Original presentation box.
In 1985, a New York movie executive began buying French and English antiques. When she moved to California, she added California pottery and Asian porcelain to the mix. The Emporium Ltd. was born out of that first collection. Her habits haven't changed: She still buys only what she'd want for herself, and that includes the spectacular scarves, jewelry, and bags in this collection. "Always buy a piece you love--you'll find a place for it," she says. "But don't buy it on sale if you didn't love it at full price. It won't withstand the test of time."

A while ago I gave you a list of our past #1 draft choices to show that top prospect does NOT equal future star. We had a 90% failure rate. So does everyone else.
I was told, that's wrong. There's a difference between a #1 draft choice, and a top prospect in all of baseball. Those guys have professional experience, and can be better evaluated by scouts.
Okay, here's Baseball America's list of top prospects from 2007. Five years aught to have been enough time to see how they did.
Baseball America's Top 10 prospects for 2007
Daisuke Matsuzaka, rhp, Red Sox 2. Alex Gordon, 3b, Royals 3. Delmon Young, of, Devil 4. Philip Hughes, rhp, Yankees 5. Homer Bailey, rhp, Reds 6. Cameron Maybin, of, Tigers 7. Evan Longoria, 3b, Devil Rays 8. Brandon Wood, ss, Angels 9. Justin Upton, of, Diamondbacks 10. Andrew Miller, lhp, Tigers
Not really that impressive. Longoria and Upton are the two best, and while both are good, neither is likely to be a Hall of Famer. The prospect crowd here blasted Upton as not that good. The rest range from average to total flop. So, maybe we only have an 80% failure rate.
Top 10 prospect in all of baseball does not equal future star either...but everyone just "knows" TsA, who's #11, is going to be great. Yeah, right, so was Homer Baily. I wonder if Homer had a bad back, gimpy knee, and torn thumb too?
everyone likes to use the 2007 list bc it was a notoriously horrible year for prospects....but good job, youve managed to post someone that everybody already knows about
heres what it comes down to...you don't know jack sh*t about how to build a team
nearly every good team in baseball was constructed by building a solid farm, identifying a core, and then supplementing that core through trades and FA signings...the mets arent done building their core and you're impatient...its that simple
if they never traded those guys, which you keep b*tching about, you would have a team that continued to be imbalanced and you would never be able to AFFORD to patch the holes...building a team means properly allocating your resources and ensuring that you have solid answers at every position...in other words, you don't know what you're talking about
Yes, I can see how having a few good players would cause "imbalance", on the 2013 Mets. We have so few they just wouldn't fit in.
But, let's do it your way.
CatcherSecond BaseSSLF-RF-CF4 Starters after NieseEntire BP.
I call it a hole if you don't have an average quality player at that spot.
Tejada and Murphy are deeply flawed and it's a real stretch to call them average.
So, you got around 16 holes to fill. Tell you what...I'll be generous and call Tejada (can't hit) and Murphy (can't field) average. So that's 14 holes.
Who do we have to fill them? Ah...not much.
Even IF (gigantic if) Harvey and Wheeler are good, and Niese is our #3...who's four and five? Santana is on his last legs, Marcum is a stopgap and a journeyman, Mejia and Familia stink. So who? You think Harvey, Wheeler, Snydergaard and someone else are ALL going to be good major league pitchers? What are you smoking?
What about the BP? Parnell has the best stats, but he can't pitch in close games. Not good for a BP guy. The rest? Guys off the scrapheap, and wannabees who won't be. Right, in addition to all those starters who are ALL going to be great, some other prospects are going to fill up the BP. Wow, doesn't anyone ever flop in your world?
Outfield? Nimmo? DenDenker? Please, they can't hit in the LOW minors. I saw Nimmo...if you think he can play, think again. We saw Kirk N, Doofus Duda, and others. I've seen enough.
So, don't worry. You'll get your wish. A team full of AAA players and prospects. You'll also get year after year of 90 loss teams.
Fred thanks you for your support....well, not really. He thinks you're dumb and can't believe you accept the baloney he spreads, but he's happy you do.
i love how you only added the top 10 and didn't list the rest
11.Tim Lincecum12.Chris Young (the hitter)13.Andrew mccutchen14.Jay Bruce15.Troy Tulowitzski16.Yovani Gallardo17.Reid Brignac18.Carlos Gonzalez19.Andy Laroche20.Mike Pelfrey21.Matt Garza22.Fernando Martinez23.Adam Miller24.Clayton Kershaw25.Billy Butler26.Ryan Braun27.Jose Tabata28.Adam Jones29.Colby Rasmus30.Franklin Morales
There is a whole bunch more that you failed to list. Joey Votto was ranked 43rdHunter Pence 38th and so on...
There are a bunch of good players on that list but of course you don't list those because it wouldn't benefit your argument.. lol!!
i also dont get how murphy and tejada are holes. murphy is a solid hitter and tejada well we don't know what we have with him but he has amazing defense. either way there is no way to judge tejada at this point in his career so thats not a hole.
and 4 starters after niese? harvey is a hole? oh ok. gee is far from a hole. hes a solid back end of the rotation pitcher. and santana is a question mark so again to use that as a hole is stupid when you just simply don't know. also dont get how marcum is considered a hole.
you just completely make things up
So what the heck is your point? OBVIOUSLY, not every prospect isn't going to live up to their potential. That is why you need to stockpile.
What is your great plan?
"I saw Nimmo...if you think he can play, think again."
Hahahahah every scout raved about Nimmo last year but you say he can't play? Thanks genius. What team do you work for?
Delve deeper into that list and here's what you find:
11. Tim Lincecum13. Andrew McCutchen14. Jay Bruce15. Troy Tulowitzki16. Yovani Gallardo18. Carlos Gonzalez21. Matt Garza24. Clayton Kershaw25. Billy Butler26. Ryan Braun28. Adam Jones33. Jacoby Ellsbury38. Hunter Pence43. Joey Votto
I could keep going, but you get the point. Nobody is trying to convince you that every prospect becomes a star. What we're pointing out is that a very high percentage of stars appear on these lists at one point or another.
and w/ that, im done
if you think tda harvey and wheeler are holes, then you're beyond stupid and there is no reason to continue this conversation
what it pretty much comes down to is if you have a top 50 prospect you have about a 40-50% chance of him being a solid MLB player and we got two in that spot. we had 3 back in 07 ( i think) and they all were busts but that was under omar.
another thing is that they aren't even our prospects. they are from other teams which makes me feel they will pan out even more
By the way...the point was that just because someone is a TOP prospect, it doesn't nean you're going to be a star. If those LESSER prospects turned out to be the better players, what does that say about being a TOP prospect? It says, that the scouts are often wrong, that it's all gueswork and opinion, and doesn't mean that much. So why gush over a top prospect if #?? may well be better?
Then, there is the Immortal #22
Fails: 1. Looking at one year.2. Calling Longoria "good."3. Defining players by whether they're HOFers. Is Dickey a HOFer? No. I hope you aren't complaining that he was traded.4. You don't know the definition of "average" in baseball. Here's an actual study, and while it is not end-all and does not include anything, it makes your methods look absolutely ludicrous. http://www.royalsreview.com/2011/2/14/1992424/success-and-failure-rates-of-top-mlb-prospects
" About 70% of Baseball America top 100 prospects fail. Position player prospects succeed much more often than pitching prospects. About 60% of position players ranked in Baseball America's top 20 succeed in the majors. About 40% of pitchers ranked in the top 20 succeed in the majors. About 30% of position players ranked 21-100 succeed in the majors (with the success rate declining over that ranking range from about 36% to about 25%) About 20% of pitchers ranked 21-100 succeed in the majors (with the success rate declining over that ranking range from about 22% to about 15%) The success rate of prospects (both position player and pitchers) is nearly flat and relatively undifferentiated for players ranked 41-100, and especially those ranked 61-100. Corner infield prospects and catchers are the most likely to succeed in the majors, but outfielders, third basemen and shortstops are the most likely to become stars. Second basemen and pitchers are the least likely prospects to succeed in the majors or to become stars. Prospect success rates have not improved much over time and there is little data to support the contention that prospects are more likely to succeed now than they have in the past." http://assets.sbnation.com/assets/543845/Prospect_Success_by_Position_medium.pnghttp://assets.sbnation.com/assets/543833/Quintile_Pos_Player_Table_medium.pnghttp://assets.sbnation.com/assets/543809/Decile_Pos_Players_Table2_medium.png <Now fuck off.

What is the best material to get for the tub? Many different materials which is best?
Cast iron is real good, but expensive, nice shine to it, quiet to water splashes and dropped objects, but is very heavy to get into the house and into where it goes.
Steel is a lot cheaper, much lighter, and noisy to dropped objects and water splashes,
American Standard makes a tub, not cheap, but I've installed them, and it's a lot lighter, but is a quieter to use tub (I've been happy with them). But I forget right now what they call it.
Standard fiberglass tubs are good, easy to install, some are set in mortar beds and some are not. I prefer to set in mortar.
What to buy also depends on what style and size you want.
I am trying to decide between cast iron clawfoot or acrylic. Is there any advice on this issue. I am concerned about acrylic flexing and then cracking. Are most cast iron tubs made equal? Is there a certain thickness which is better for acrylic clawfoot tubs? It seems they are about equal in price by some vendors.
Ideas, advice or tips?
I would expect differences in construction in acrylic for a standalone soaker tub, precisely because cast iron does not flex.
I would still not expect somebody to come along in 120 years, scrub down an acrylic tub, put a dab of porcelain fix paint on a chip, and refit it for the next 50 years or more. you can with cast iron.

Then-Education Commissioner Stephen Bowen listens in May as he and Gov. Paul LePage unveil the state's new A-F grading system for schools at the Maine State Library.

Education Commissioner Stephen Bowen, left, and Gov. Paul LePage unveil the state's new A-F grading system on May 1 at the Maine State Library.
Staff File Photo
Bennett would not comment on LePage's apparent belief that Bowen had been influenced by certain staffers, citing personnel concerns. She said LePage was disappointed with the legislative session, but not with Bowen.
"Not reaching those achievements were not the result of a lack of effort," Bennett said.
ON THE SAME PAGE WITH LePAGE
It may be difficult to find an education chief whose policy views align as closely with LePage's as Bowen's did.
LePage and his now-departed education chief were sometimes at odds on policy execution. But they shared the same goals, not to mention an affinity for political combat.
In June 2012, LePage issued a sharply worded statement to the state commission that approves charter schools. James Banks, the former head of the commission, had publicly complained that the panel was being rushed to approve the publicly funded charters. LePage urged the independent commission to do its work -- quickly -- or resign.
"Resignations encourages (sic) in the second sentence!" Bowen wrote in a June 2012 email to LePage's senior staff, which had circulated a draft of the media statement. "I love working for this governor!"
The 44-year-old Bowen had a feisty reputation before becoming LePage's education policy adviser, a spot he briefly held before the governor appointed him commissioner. The former teacher and state legislator had urged education reforms for the Maine Heritage Policy Center, a conservative advocacy group that continues to influence LePage's educational, economic and health care policies.
Bowen was brash and outspoken at the policy center, known for writing searing blog posts and newspaper opinion pieces about deficiencies in Maine's education system and the Maine Education Association, the state teachers union. Bowen viewed the union, an influential organization aligned with the Democratic Party, as an enemy of change.
Bowen's views didn't change when he became commissioner. His emails to LePage staffers are peppered with references to "blasting" the union, "slapping them around."
In late May 2012, LePage vetoed a bill that would have allowed public school teachers to earn additional pay if they received a national certification. The governor criticized the union in his veto message. He seemingly mocked the bill's supporters, drawing a smiley face near his signature.
"Ouch, that's going to leave a mark," Bowen wrote in response. "Never seen a veto message like that!!"
The hostilities are mutual. The union is one of the most vocal opponents of the LePage administration. In 2012, the union and the National Education Association were among the top spenders in an election that toppled the Republican majority in the Legislature. The union's political action committee ran ads against LePage and his education policy, equating Maine's 2011 charter school bill to selling student education to corporate interests.
Last year the union obtained more than 1,000 pages of Bowen's emails and memos through a Freedom of Access Act request. It has since shared the documents with the Portland Press Herald and other news organizations.
Over the past several months, the documents have trickled into public view through news reports. A Press Herald report published in May documented how the governor initially planned to scrap the state's school laptop program, a decision Bowen advised against. Another showed how LePage wanted to give Miss Maine USA a job promoting career and technical education at high schools, an idea that Bowen famously called "nuts."
There are other moments when Bowen offered contrarian views, or steered the administration from trouble. In early 2012, the governor made a concerted effort to authorize charter schools. Bowen supported the mission but warned that some of the proposals may be "half-baked" and that the newly minted charter commission was just getting organized.

I do not like bedtime and neither does my toddler. There are bathroom trips, water breaks, and LOTS of getting out of bed. I don't want to be mean, but I am ready to call it a night and all his crying and getting out of bed makes bedtime miserable for all of us. What can I do to get him to realize that he NEEDS to go to sleep?--Bonnie, Strongmoms facilitator
How old is your kiddo? I have a friend that went to a "pass" system, kind of like in school. Her children were each given a set number of passes and once they used them, that was pretty much it. I want to say a total of two or three. You can make them specific-one for water and one for the bathroom (although I know you don't want a child that honestly has to use the bathroom to not be able to). Just a thought and it worked well for her.
Always a tough one... with one toddler, it is somewhat easy to stay on top of it. In our house, where there are three kids in bed 6 and under, it can be quite exhausting. We struggle with this, but I think what we realized was the best way to ensure kids go to sleep quickly is to make sure they are wiped out by the time they get to bed.
I have two girls age 3 and 2 that share a room and have both done this. My best advice is to keep up the routine and stay strong. To help them realize that's not what they should be doing we set a strict routine. Potty break before we even go into the bedroom. One drink of water before getting in bed. And I also allowed them to bring a book to bed. If they are not sleepy or sometimes they pretend to be scared to bring us in to retuck them, they are allowed to quietly "read" their book. We have also done a sticker chart. Start small with 5 days of no calling you into the bedroom or what we call "monkey buisness" then reward them. Afterward extend it and it worked well for us during befdtime help. One last tip, be sure to follow through with any concequnces. I would threaten to take away a toy and never would. Once I actually followed through they understood I meant business. Best of luck
Thanks for all the advice. I appreciate it and will try some of it tonight!
LaSage - GREAT information. I will definitely be trying some of these tricks as my kids get older! I was worried about my little boy getting bigger and moving to a big boy bed since he shares a room with his older brother. It's good to know you've been able to make it work with your girls. :-)
LaSage-what a fantastic mom you are! Wow! I am so impressed with the routine and strategies you have put into place with your kiddos. I am always a fan of sticker charts. Great job!
