As a real estate writer for the Zillow blog, we decided to write a piece about the city of Fort Lee, since the New Jersey city is the epicenter of the Chris Christie bridge lane closing scandal. And what we found in Fort Lee was Fred Sokolich, the real estate broker brother of Fort Lee Mayor Mark Sokolich. He answered the phone and gave me a good interview about the city and the bridge and the future of housing in Fort Lee.
Zillow is the online real estate site that delivers millions of data points on homes and property across the United States. In the blog, we write real estate news, so this Fort Lee incident sounded like a good way to feature the city. We had no idea that real estate development might be the underlying factor to Bridgegate, but apparently the wagons are circling around a key development parcel and critical access to that parcel via designated bridge lanes for Fort Lee.
Fred Sokolich, whose Sokolich Real Estate Enterprises is the No. 1 rental broker in northern N.J., said he was flummoxed at the way the land closures were used as retribution against Fort Lee.
In connection to the bridge scandal, many mentions have been made to Fort Lee's renaissance, which features a land parcel at the foot of the GWB , where a major, billion-dollar development is taking place. Hudson Lights is the name of the development. I think we will know a lot more about it in days to come.
What has been one of the more striking elements of the scandal is the idea that the lane closures that snarled traffic for four days in September was payback for Mark Sokolich, a Democrat, for not endorsing Republican Chris Christie for governor. Christie and Sokolich have been pretty forthright in saying that lack of endorsement was not an issue. Then what was?
Rachel Maddow suggested that fights over reappointments to the New Jersey State Supreme Court were possibly the reason, since Christie and Democratic State Sen. Loretta Weinberg, whose district includes Fort Lee, were in a death squabble over who would or would not be reappointed, or confirmed.
Well, maybe yes. Maybe no -- especially when there is now reason to cast a critical eye toward the billion-dollar development that Mayor Mark Sokolich has helped make happen after decades of Jersey-style corruption and shenanigans over the Hudson Lights parcel in Fort Lee, right under the GW Bridge.
From the Bergen Record, dated Sept. 16, 2013, immediately after the 4-day Bridgegate episode that, there's this report.
The long-awaited Hudson Lights luxury development in Fort Lee that was delayed this summer has secured financing for the project, which will get under way next month,officials said Monday.
Having covered politics in New York and Pennsylvania for the Albany Times Union and the Patriot-News, it certainly seems as if it is well within the bounds of PLAUSIBLE -- given the kinds of dollars and players involved in deals like these -- that this real estate development deal is exactly the kind of issue that would cause political operatives to go wilding on a retribution scheme.
For instance, bond deals are always fodder for jealousy and shenanigans, because of the fees involved in generating the financing. What about the bond deal for Hudson Lights, as secured by Tucker Construction via banking giant Sovereign Santander? It's just one place to scratch around on to see if somehow, there are threads to be pulled. Retribution like closing bridge lanes may sound like stupidity, as Christie tried to characterize it. But it could be far worse and intentional that stupidity.
The key, going forward, will be to outline the background of this real estate development project. Nothing of this magnitude gets done anywhere without a lot of hands in the pot, or a lot of actors feeling like they may or may not have gotten their share of the deal.
Fort Lee is not just an exit off the GW Bridge, as Fred Sokolich emphasized. It is a city. It is a real place. It sits directly on the Hudson, facing New York City, and provides easy access to one of the most expensive cities in the world for development and real estate. With the economic collapse of 2008 behind us, Fort Lee real estate is up 13 percent or more in the last year. It is going to go up another 4 percent in 2014, according to Zillow analytics. This is a playground not only for politicians and bridge commuters, but developers doing deals worth millions.
My interest in Fort Lee is only more piqued now. Steve Kornacki of MSNBC has apparently today linked the New Jersey players surrounding the GW Bridge scandal and the development deal.
But given the mafia connections to some aspects of the land now being developed courtesy of Mayor Mark Sokolich's Hudson Lights project, I'm glad I am currently in Seattle.
It was a little odd when Mayor Sokolich of Fort Lee went on all the news stations last Thursday and Friday after the Chris Christie press conference and apology tour of Fort Lee, saying the only thing he asked Christie for was that no more retribution take place.
Um, what? More? Why?
Stay tuned ...

Thanks for the background on the Hudson Lights project. I'll be watching for any further information you might get on this.

Yes! Keep pulling those threads, especially on the financing for Hudson Lights, the Fort Lee very big deal $1 billion project.

The key to this mystery is, as always, to "follow the money." CC and David Samson apparently have a very "deep" relationship. Could CC have proposed a change in the Ft. Lee lane access to the GW Bridge to induce Tucker to retain Wolff & Samson to obtain redress from the Port Authority? The value of their land investment, based on three lane access to the bridge, was at stake.

David Greene (BBA 2004)
Teaming up for the first time
Although they never played a single down together, Matt Stinchcomb (BBA '98) and David Greene (BBA '04) both had stellar football careers at the University of Georgia, with Stinchcomb earning All-America honors in his last two seasons and Greene becoming the winningest quarterback in NCAA history with 42 victories. [That record has just been eclipsed by Texas quarterback Colt McCoy.]
Now that their professional careers have concluded, these long-time friends who played football for Georgia in different decades have joined forces to open the Atlanta office of Savannah-based Seacrest Partners, a privately owned insurance brokerage and consulting firm.
Seacrest Partners is a commercial lines brokerage firm for property, casualty, and benefits. The company specializes in a number of different industries — health care, financial institutions, construction, larger-scale retail, manufacturing, education and alternative energy. It also has a personal lines division.
"It's going great," says Greene, who majored in risk management at Terry. "We couldn't be in a better place for us. The way Seacrest Partners services clients and goes about getting new business is perfect for what we were looking for. We needed to partner up with a firm that really understands the business and can teach it."
Stinchcomb's younger brother Jon provided the connection for the newest employees of Seacrest Partners, and the three Gwinnett County natives have also joined forces as hosts of the annual "Countdown to Kickoff" charity event in Athens that benefits Children's Healthcare of Atlanta, the Georgia Transplant Foundation, the Children's Tumor Foundation, and UGA's Pediatric Exercise and Motor Development Clinic.
"My brother and David were roommates when they were at Georgia - that was the common tie," says Stinchcomb, who majored in finance at Terry and then spent eight years in the NFL with Oakland and Tampa Bay. "We've had a constant connection ever since David started at Georgia. When he transitioned away from football and I had retired, it seemed like it was a good progression, a good fit to get together."
Seacrest Partners is an employee-owned company that is extremely growth-focused.
"We average 20-plus years of experience in the insurance industry and this firm is highly collaborative," says Stinchcomb. "There are no partitions to say, 'This client belongs here, this client belongs there.' It's whoever is nearest to the need and can best address it. The resources are accessible universally."
Within Seacrest Partners, there's no lack of Bulldog or Terry College spirit. In fact, Greene and Stinchcomb bring the number of Terry alumni in the firm to seven. Vice Chairman Cliff McCurry (BBA '71) was recently appointed to the Terry College Alumni Board, and other Terry grads include vice president Susan White (BBA '85), partners Michael Butler (BBA '82) and Cindy Parker Robinett (BBA '89), and assistant account manager Thomas Odom (BBA '09).
Greene and Stinchcomb are appreciative to Seacrest Partners for the opportunity to hit the ground running in a successful enterprise, and they're equally indebted to the Terry College for providing them with the tools to succeed in the business world.
"At the end of the day, professional football is a collection of independent contractors, and there are a number of legalities and professional obligations that represent a great deal of services being exchanged," says Stinchcomb, who does color commentary during the college football season with both ESPN and the SEC Network. "It's like any other industry. It has hierarchy, it has administration, and it has managerial and quality control issues like just about any other company or organization.
"Terry has an unbelievable reputation nationally," adds Greene, who spent portions of five years on NFL rosters and practice squads in Seattle, Kansas City, New England, and Indianapolis. "Risk management department head Rob Hoyt has accomplished some top-notch stuff. With all the different carriers and brokers in Atlanta, Dr. Hoyt has done an outstanding job of putting on job fairs and getting students out in front of companies to help them find jobs right out of college. He does a phenomenal job. He really cares about his students and helps in any way he can."

A young girl's teenage years are great for exploring popular fashion and teen beauty products, but they're also crucial for developing a strong sense of confidence in one's individuality. In recognition of this, several brands have stepped up to inspire and empower the next generation of women.
After Aerie launched the #AerieReal campaign, which involved zero retouching of models, several beauty brands and retailers followed suit, encouraging young girls to be at peace with themselves just the way they are.
In recent years, the fashion and beauty industries as a whole have made huge strides in celebrating both women and young teens of all shapes and sizes. Some of the most inclusive campaigns include Avon's 'Beauty with a Purpose,' which champions brand ambassadors and employees of all ages, as well as a reflective cover recently used for Elle Australia magazine that encourages all women to see themselves as models.

OnePlus 3 Visits TENAA, Confirms Metal Body Design & Snapdragon 820
by May 25, 2016 10:54 pm6
Evleaks gave us a first good look at the OnePlus 3 flagship smartphone a few days back. To be honest, it looked like the design was inspired by HTC. Now, OnePlus 3 has just passed through the Chinese TENAA certification website and guess what, the design we saw back then is almost confirmed today. TENAA reveals that the new OnePlus flagship will be going with the market trend by using an all metal design, a first for the company. Up front, the phone will feature 2.5D glass.
Design wise, the OnePlus 3 has a bit of an HTC feel, but overall the looks are not bad at all. You have a large camera sensor on the top center of the back panel, which for your information is protruding. Then, there's a single LED flash and no laser focus, which is really surprising given that the OnePlus 2 had this tech. The black antenna bars are a significant part of the design and lies on top as well as near the bottom of the metal back panel.
Coming to the specs, TENAA confirms that the OnePlus 3 will feature a 2.15GHz quad-core Snapdragon 820 chipset with 4GB RAM and 64GB of internal storage. There's no information about a 6GB RAM version, which we had heard about before. At the back, the phone comes with a 16MP camera while up front, there is an 8MP shooter. The screen size is also confirmed. It will sport a 5.5-inch panel with 1080p resolution. OnePlus 3 is quite thin as well and will measure just 7.3mm in thickness. In this body, the company has fitted a 3000mAh battery. This should be enough since previous 3C certification of the device had revealed that the phone could feature OPPO's VOOC low voltage fast charging. The phone also supports dual SIM dual standby with 4G LTE.
RELATED: OnePlus CEO reveals the flagship OnePlus 3 is good to hold
While this particular model that hit TENAA was running on Android 6.0.1, it is said that the phone should be getting Android N version after it is officially released by the company.
Since the design of the OnePlus 3 is basically confirmed, what are your final thoughts about it?

.Y. - Lou Williams scored 21 points and the Toronto Raptors beat New York 81-76 on Monday night in the Knicks preseason home opener.
. Spieth again showed game well beyond his 20 years with a 9-under 63 on the North Course, giving him a one-shot lead over Stewart Cink going into the weekend at the Farmers Insurance Open.ROME -- Lorenzo Insigne scored two early goals as Napoli edged Fiorentina 3-1 to win the Italian Cup in a final marred by pre-game violence on Saturday. A fan was in serious condition following a shooting on the outskirts of Rome before the match. As a result of the shooting, in which an off-duty police officer was also reportedly injured, the final started 40 minutes late, and there were scenes of violence inside the stadium with a firefighter injured by fireworks thrown from the stands by Napoli supporters. The pre-kickoff tension didnt seem to bother Napoli, however, as Insigne quickly put the southern squad ahead 2-0. Insignes first goal came 11 minutes in with an angled shot that bounced in off the post. He doubled the lead in the 17th by finishing off a counterattack with a shot that deflected in off defender Nenad Tomovic. Peru midfielder Juan Vargas replied for Fiorentina in the 28th with a blast from the edge of the area. The Viola nearly equalized in the 45th but a goal from Alberto Aquilani was annulled for offside. Napoli finished with 10 men when Gokhan Inler picked up his second yellow card for a foul from behind on Josip Ilicic in the 79th. Ilicic had a golden chance to equalize in the 85th but shot wide. Napoli substitute Dries Mertens added another goal in the second minute of added time. "It was a great game," Napolii first-year coach Rafa Benitez said.
. "It seemed we were in control at the start then they scored but we were able to win with 10 men in the end." It was the fifth Cup for Diego Maradonas former club, with its last coming in 2012. In Serie A, Napoli sits third. One positive note for Fiorentina was the return of Giuseppe Rossi, who came on for the final 18 minutes. It was Rossis first action since January, after his latest knee injury, and boosted his chances of making Italys World Cup squad. In the pre-match violence, several other fans were also reportedly injured, although the circumstances of the shootings were not clear. "I hear that the fan who was shot has been operated on and hopefully is out of danger, so we dedicate this Cup to him," Napoli president Aurelio De Laurentiis said. Inside the stadium, Napoli captain Marek Hamsik went over to talk with the fans and calm them down before kickoff. There was more chaos at the final whistle when Napoli fans invaded the pitch to celebrate, although they were quickly brought under control to allow the trophy ceremony to go forward. "It certainly wasnt a great scene, what we displayed today alongside football," Italian football federation vice-president Demetrio Albertini said. "For a football lover like me, it was an ugly display."

I don't know what happened lately that caused my home to be like pigeon nest. That's what my sister said to me LOL. I guessed what she meant was there's non-stop of guests at my home just like pigeons to their nests… hmmm… I don't know where she got that phrase from. Anyway, this situation tells me it's time to move to bigger space!
So, tomorrow's going to be noisy and busy day but for tonight's dinner, I have left over of japanese aubergine (again… :-P). I bought a lot because the price was very cheap plus it's organic! Yesterday, I bought some juicy and crunchy beansprouts and some silken tofu (not sure what to do with the tofu yet.) Already, I baked and grilled the gorgeous small japanese aubergine aka Nasu. There's 1 method I didn't use for quite sometime – boiling. It's one of my mom's favourite ways dealing with aubergine besides charcoal roasting on top of her faithful portable terracotta stove with a small square opening at the base (I love making 'firework' with that stove LOL.)
With what I have from the fridge and short of time for dinner, this was what I came up with for quick yet light meal.
Boiled Aubergine With Crispy Garlic, Dried Shrimp Served On Beansprouts
2-4 nos Japanese Aubergines (Nasu)
5 cloves Garlic
10 g Dried Shrimps
100 g Beansprouts
1 nos Red Capsicum (Bell Pepper) or 1 Red Chilli
1 stalk Spring Onion
Some Shoyu or Light Soy Sauce
Some Oil
1. Washed the vegetables and toss them dry. Cut the aubergines into halves at last minute before boiling them. Slice the spring onions. Set aside.
2. Soak the dried shrimps to remove some saltiness for 1-2 minutes. Drain and pat dry with kitchen paper and set aside.
3. Minced the garlic finely and chop the capsicum into
4. In a small pan, pour in 1/4 cup of oil and when it's hot add in the dried shrimps. Fry until fragrant and crispy. Remove and drain the excess oil with kitchen paper. Set aside.
5. In a pot, boiled some water with some salt. When it boils, add the beansprouts. Blanch the beansprouts for few seconds. Remove quickly and arrange on a serving dish/plate.
6. With same water, add in the aubergine halves and boil them until soften. Remove from pot and drain. Arrange aubergine halve on top of beansprouts.
7. Sprinkle the chopped capsicum and the fried dried shrimps on the boiled vegetables.
8. Now, this maybe a bit tricky… because you need to do fast before your garlic burnt.
In the pan that you fried the dried shrimp, add extra cooking oil; another 1/4 cup or just enough for the boiled vegetables. When oil is hot again, add in the minced garlic. Fry the garlic until fragrant and crispy but not burnt.
Remove the pan from heat and with the garlic crisps still frying in the oil, pour all the contents all over the boiled vegetable. Yep, the vegetables will sizzles, don't worry 😀
9. Sprinkle sliced spring onions and drizzle generous amount of light soy sauce. Sniff and enjoy with hot rice or or a bowl of noodles.
Note: If you can't find dried shrimps, you can substitute it with minced fried salted fish of your choice eg. bacalhau, dried whitebait (shirasu), dried anchovy…
This dish may sound difficult at first but once you got your own method to fry quickly and pouring the garlic oil over the vegetables, is easy and fast to make. To eat it just stir or mix the ingredients. You will notice that it's not oily at all. I love the gravy with plain white rice. 🙂

2 Schildtrager medium robots
6 A6V medium tanks
8 Walze small tanks
3 Jager small airships
1 Fighter Ace
The British Force Was
1 Brunel mobile airfield
1 Sovereign landship
3 Cromwell bombards
3 Mk2 medium tanks
1 Steward heavy tank
4 Foxhound light tanks
5 Terrier small tanks
1 Ace, I think
Our rather barren battlefield. The roads were simply for looks. The yellow lines show the various setup zones.
I was rather displeased to draw this as my objective. I stuck with it anyway. So now I HAD to kill the Brunel and Sovereign to win.
Our deployments. Neither of us had any flankers or reserve. We both played the "Lost Orders" TAC right out of the gates. 20 points each.
Stompenstein takes a long range shot at a distant Mk 2 with its Speerschluder and makes its own "mark."
The Foxhounds manage two quick kills against the Walze squadron in the center.
Something did this to Bertha but I cannot remember what. Possibly the artillery?
Score thusfar...
The Mk 2s and their baby-sitter rolled up and shot up some of my medium tanks. Big-un lumbered forward, blasting the damaged British tank and damaging the Steward, whose Guardian Shield Generator simply had to go away.
The A6-Vs configure for some bug-zapper revenge. I rolled what must've been sixteen dice and couldn't manage to hit anything. The dadgummed shield went into gonzo-mode and blocked four or six of my hits.
Resulting in this little slice of insufferable-ness. I believe a few fist pumps and a dance were involved.
The Brits keep kicking ass - the Terriers score a Sturginium Flare on one of my mediums, killing it with comedy.
Back on my left, I took the air battle to Zig's air component and mauled his fighters. This was a huge deal for me because my SAS usually take it in the pants and I NEVER have air superiority. You'll also see one of my Schildtragers getting worked over by the bombards (lower right).
There - the Sovereign finishes off my little guy. Sadness.
End of turn 2. The Brunel takes out another of my A6es with a fore-gun shot. Things are going terribly terrible for the Prussians.
Your scoreboard:
Turn 3
We both added 1d3 to our initiative rolls and I lost initiative anyway. Stupid cards.
Z's dive bombers take a stab at the Metzger who managed to kill one with AA. The big robot mercifully just took one point of damage.
The Prussian dive bombers return the favor and blast the Brunel, causing a crit - Generators Offline!
Stompy takes some useless shots at the stupid tank squadron whose shields have been kicking complete ass this game. The Brunel unloads on the robot's knees causing major damage - Shredded Defenses AND Fusion Leak.
My Walze squadron in the middle zips towards the Brunel and scores another crit on the beast! Hard Pounding, 3 AP lost.
I played "Stoke the Engines" and hit the Tesla Generator for a burst of speed on my Seydlitz. I rolled a "1" both times, go it got to move 7 inches. Feh. It did however get in on the Brunel whipping, scoring three more damage including the coveted "Weapons Damage."
The Cromwells come out from behind the woods and blast Bertha. My second group of dive bombers pounce on the big British carrier and finish it off!
Needing a big score, the Terriers continue to work on my Metzger.
And finally the Jagers make it around the corner and pour some lightning bolts into the British artillery.
Turn three came to a close and the score was looking a lot better now! We were both close to 50% but I still had to kill an undamaged Sovereign!
Turn 4
I played "Battlefield Repair" on my Metzger which was one hit from dying, but Ziggy played an "Espionage" card to cancel it out. Booooooo hissssssssss.
With that, my first order of business was to use the Metzger before it got itself killed. It smashed into the Steward heavy tank which had been causing me so many headaches and caused ONE LOUSY POINT OF DAMAGE. At least that squadron was broken by the Terror.
The Terriers did what they're best at and got a big ol' mouthful of Achille's tendon. Buh-bye, Stompy. You were fun. Oh, and somehow with 200 points now with the new Orbat update. 150 + SV50. Seems way over-valued. Oh well, that was a big VP boost for Ziggy.
My Walze small tanks unloaded on the Sovereign and scored a crit. Initially I rolled a crummy "Engine Damage." I played the "Lucky Shot" card and re-rolled. I got "Weapons Damage!" Double fist-pump.
I had to clear a path for the Seydlitz - it has a minimum 2" move. The A6es in the center finally manage to kill a Foxhound, clearing the path. The bombards line up another shot at my remaining Schildtrager.
Bertha rolled forward and unleashed all her weapons, killing a Foxhound and Cromwell and getting a dive-bomber group back up-to-snuff.
For grins, the Schildtrager ran forward into a Foxhound and kicked it halfway across the battlefield. Nice effort, little guy. It was way more impressive than the Metzger's assault, for sure!
The recently repaired DB squadron takes a run at the Sovereign and scores another crit - this time the "Engine Damage" must stay.
Thus ended turn 4. The score was very close now.
Turn 5
Zig conducted his own Battlefield Repairs on the Sovereign but rolled poorly. Either way, I still had a lot of work to do on it.
The landship double-critted my Schildtrager killing it easily. Ugh.
Let's end this battle. The Seydlitz kills the last Cromwell, blasts the Brunel and repairs another dive bomber squadron. The dive bombers go in for the kill and finish of the Sovereign. Game over.
Final Score:
Wow. What a good battle. Things started out so poorly in this game I was just waiting for it to be over. Then, halfway through turn 3, the planets aligned, my dice got their act together and I was able to bring firepower to where it was needed - against the big guys. For the first time ever, I got very good value out of a carrier and was very happy with the Seydlitz' performance. The Schildtragers, too, were a good points investment. The Metzger is a points-sink, which is unfortunate. Like most of the robots in this game it has too few weapons and too little speed. It MUST get into contact with enemy units to be worth a toot and with its miserly 6" rate + occasional Tesla generator success, it takes forever to get a return on investment. It is usually damaged very badly by the time it is close enough to fight.
On the other side, the Cromwells were very strong and the Steward + Mk2 squadron was terrific. The Brunel and Sovereign were good but not great, IMO. The Sovereign having Secondary weapons in all mounts is great for it, it can get a LOT of linked fire dice.
** edit **
Ziggy had the mission requiring that he destroy all of my Mediums - made more difficult since I had eight of them (the tanks and Schildtragers) and that they were widely spaced along my formation.
That was a hell of a way to spend Saturday afternoon and I'm looking forward to the next!

Sometimes we miss the rounded edges of the eye which makes the eyes look very incomplete and something missing.It is essential to do the make up with these techniques.

New bridge, same traffic — at least on the first morning.
The gleaming white and newly built $6.4 billion eastern span of the Bay Bridge handled its first morning commute Tuesday with few problems other than the traffic snarls that were common around the old span. However, the evening commute was mostly a slog from The City to the East Bay as drivers gawked at the new and old spans and the new bike and pedestrian path was stuffed to capacity.
California Highway Patrol Officer Sam Morgan said traffic heading into San Francisco on the bridge around noon was a little heavier than usual, possibly because of excitement about the new bridge.
"Some are making it a recreational event," Morgan said.
Officers have not encountered any instances of people pulling over on the roadway to take pictures of the span, Morgan said.
But Officer Daniel Hill told San Jose-based KNTV-TV (Ch. 11) that some drivers were warned or cited for taking photos and cellphone video while driving. He did not have exact numbers.
One person also received a warning for driving and taking pictures on the closed section of the old bridge, Morgan said.
"While everybody is excited about the new bridge, please remember it is still a roadway designed to get you from point A to point B," Morgan warned.
The new self-anchored suspension span with its single looming white tower opened Monday night, hours after a low-key inaugural chain-cutting ceremony and after years of delays and cost overruns.
It replaces a structure that was damaged during the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake, which struck as millions tuned in to watch Game 3 of the Bay Bridge World Series between the A's and the Giants. The replacement span is designed to withstand the strongest earthquake estimated by seismologists to occur at the site over a 1,500-year period.
Meanwhile, the new bridge's bike and pedestrian path opened Tuesday, although it will not run the full length of the new span until demolition of the old one is complete.
Oakland Mayor Jean Quan predicted the path itself would become a local attraction.
"Just enjoying that will become an experience that people all over the Bay Area, and probably all over the world, are going to want to have," she said during remarks at the opening.

personal hygiene - that's what comes first to every self-respecting man.Fortunately, manufacturers of household chemicals and perfumes do not rest on our laurels and continue to produce new tools designed to facilitate and improve the lives of the modern man.
Meet new cosmetic product
In this post we will focus on innovation such as deodorant "Nivea" - "Effect of powder."Comments about this vehicle appeared immediately after the release of deodorant on the market.What do the ladies of the "effect of the powder", whether it is a means to acquire?
"No" natural smells!
Nature has provided man with everything necessary to ensure that he could no sight and hearing to determine how his kinsman or someone else's.It is the sense of smell.Every second our body during the operation and functioning allocates hundreds of shades of subtle smells that "talk" about our mood, emotional state, health and well-being.The system works so subtly that, trusting it, you can see the person you are agreeable or not, c
What do customers expect from deodorants, antiperspirants?
will understand "what women want", before moving on to study the advantages and disadvantages of such means as deodorant "Nivea" - "Effect of powder."
give feedback on "good deodorant" that's what they say:
- Every woman in any age group wants to avoid the smell of sweat.It does not matter what kind of activity it is involved (business-woman, which does not leave the office, or aerobics teacher), which is a way of life - your own body odor is perceived by the fair sex as something antisocial and extremely unpleasant.
- Antiperspirant must protect from the smell of sweat is not less than the amount of time promised on the package.That is, if the manufacturer claims 48 hours of action and protection against odor, the woman should rely on this period of time, knowing that it will not have an unpleasant extraneous flavors.
- dryness.This option is quite willing, but, as noted by the girls, even deodorants, which are designed for an active lifestyle people who can not ensure dryness.Indeed, after one of the most important functions of sweating - heat and water exchange.Normal (ie approved by dermatologists) deodorant in any case should not block the sweat glands - this can lead to disease, including tumor formation.
- absence of stains on clothes.As the eight out of ten women, they change deodorant only for the reason that he leaves traces on clothes.On the black fabric such spots appear as white streaks on light - as the yellow stains.
These are the basic requirements that girls and women make on deodorant.Among the desirable, but not mandatory properties - pleasant fragrance, skin care, ease of use, environmental friendliness.
products from the brand "Nivea»
«Nivea" is known worldwide as a manufacturer of looking after cosmetics - shampoos, body lotions, deodorant agents.

New from "Nivea»
Not so long ago there was the novelty of the company - deodorant "Nivea" "The effect of powder."If you fancy a powder exclusively as part of decorative cosmetics, you are wrong - in this case it is a question of kaolin.Another popular name of the kaolin powder - a "white clay".What is it and why this ingredient was a part of the new deodorant?
This substance is known for its excellent absorbent and enveloping properties.It is this quality that underlies the "Effect of powder."Deodorant has a pleasant and yet unobtrusive floral aroma.
What do women customers?
If there is a desire to buy a deodorant "Nivea" "The effect of powder", reviews of those who have tried it, interested in the first place.That's right, since no ads will not tell about the product is better than the real consumers.
Advertising Agency conducted a survey of 1,000 respondents among those who have bought and used the product.And what are the results:
- majority of those who tried the deodorant, namely 78%, say it is not sticky, nice structure;

- 96% said that a deodorant does not leave white spots and stains on clothes;
- 100% confirmed that "Effect powder" for 48 hours and gives greater protection against odor, and 68% confirmed that provide dry skin deodorant.
The fact that the antiperspirant is no alcohol, makes it very attractive for buyers Deodorant "Nivea" "The effect of powder."Reviews
real consumers mean to potential customers much more than a bright and beautiful advertising.Most of the respondents participating in the survey, there were more than satisfied with the work, "Effect of powder."
opinion dermatologists
Considering specialist deodorant "Nivea" "The effect of powder", the composition satisfy dermatologist.Above all, this means hygiene without dyes and alcohol.These additives are often used to create antiperspirant, and these components cause skin irritation and allergic reaction.
The second important point - is the presence of kaolin powder in the composition.This component makes "effect powders" means not only soft, but also much more effective than deodorant, do not contain this "secret" ingredient.It is for this reason, "The effect of powder" approved by dermatologists and recommended for use.
How much is "Nivea" "The effect of powder?"
If you decide to buy a deodorant "Nivea" "The effect of powder", the price you will not confuse.In his new deodorant makers have set the average market price of the ordinary.In Ukraine, in the large cities "effect powders" can be purchased from 25 hryvnia in Russia - 80 rubles.But it should be noted that there are three kinds of deodorant.
This antiperspirant spray, solid stick and roll-on deodorant.All three species are identical in their effect, and differ only for the reason that some ladies are accustomed to solid deodorant, while others like dusts.
Deodorant "Nivea" "The effect of powder" can be bought in any large store specializing in the sale of decorative and care cosmetics.

The problem: People loading you with work.
Many like to be important and many do hard work at lower levels. For both the opportunity of being a manager is sugar on their ego. Those who usually do hard work at lower levels are often argued if something is not done (fast enough). They like it if they can play the other role once a time.
What I am talking about here is not (necessarily) boss related. There are a lot of other people also trying to load you with work who are on equal level as you are.
And the worst what than can happen: They complain that you are not performing enough.
Such situations usually cause anger and litigation with collegues, family members (yes even your wife/husband or even children can load you with a lot of work).
The reason: They got used to your assistance, your helping hand, your support.
People find out quickly from whom they can get easy help to solve their issues. Those who have a helper syndrome are easily found by those who are looking for patronage. And people like it to be helpful and to achieve a lot of goals. But this can exhaust your power.
The solution: Stop the service.
I do not mean that you should refuse any support completely. But from time to time it is important to set or raise the limits - for you and also for the others. This is different from learning how to say "No" because the problem I am talking about is usually addressing something you already accepted somehow earlier and you get utilized. Maybe you accepted to give a little help and slowly the issue grows up. So you are already in the middle of something.
If you just stop when a thing grows too big and you feel to get utilized then others get the opportunity to notice their exaggerated request for your support.
When to temporary refuse: When family members or important colleagues are asking too much in too few time then usually a temporary refuse is the appropriate action. Retreat for a while and use the time for relaxing, personal development or for your hobby. Depending on how penetrating people are demanding your services the longer you should refuse.
When to completely refuse: Some people might simply got used to the fact that you are a friendly person always trying to help. If they do not play an important role in your life and you are not expecting a big change in this then it is better to stop completely supporting them if they get too cumbersome and annoying.
It is always better to simply stop the service than quarreling and arguing about your occupation and engagement!

High School Happenings:
Mr. Lloyd's Intro to Computer Science students are currently learning how to program microcontrollers to control servo motors and read information from sensors. Advanced Computer Science students have recently made a self-watering hydroponics system growing chili plants with fish and are currently working on an "Internet of Things" motion-activated light with LEDs.
We are excited about the hands on learning that will be taking place in some of the middle and high school science classes during the 3rd and 4th quarter. Different classes will dissect such things as earthworms, fish, crawfish, frogs, and pigs. Pictures to come!
This week high school students and teachers are saying farewell to Mrs. Reihle. Mrs. Reihle has served faithfully at OCSI and will truly be missed. We also are welcoming Mrs. Lesley Cashon to the OCSI family. Mrs. Cashon recently moved to Okinawa and will be covering the Biology, Chemistry, and Marine Biology classes for the remainder of the year.

Have Bradley Cooper & Robert de Niro quietly shot scenes for the "Limitless" pilot in contention for a series order at CBS? It seems so. At least, their characters are part of the script written by Craig Sweeny…
The project is centered on Brian Sinclair (played by American Sniper's Jake McDorman) -a character that was not part of the 2011 movie- as he discovers the power of the mysterious drug NZT and is coerced into using his newfound drug enhanced abilities for good, helping the FBI (represented by Agent Rebecca Tate, played by Dexter's Jennifer Carpenter). That's the official description of the Limitless TV series, as announced by CBS when the pilot was ordered back in January. What it doesn't say is that Eddie Mora, Bradley Cooper's character in the movie, is still part of the story. A huge part actually.
As soon as in the first scene of the pilot, Cooper appears via a poster. It says: "Re-Elect Senator Edward Mora. A voice for New York, a voice for the World". Later on, he's back again, this time on TV with a brief image of a 60 Minutes style interview he's giving. Then, he finally makes a real entrance at the end of the fourth act, saying to Brian: "It's time for you and me to talk." I won't spoil the long scene that follows right after that, but it explains with more or less clarity why he's here and what he has to do with all of this. But it does not end here. He appears one last time in the final scene -compared to the "post credits sequence in a Marvel movie"- and he's not alone: he's with Carl! Remember Carl? It's the character played by Robert de Niro himself in the movie.
So the question is, will Cooper and De Niro reprise their respective roles in the pilot directed by Marc Webb? Why wouldn't they? Cooper is credited as an executive producer on the pilot and let's not forget he started his career on TV (Alias, Nip/Tuck…) while De Niro has a close relationship with CBS since he is producing one of their pilots this year (For Justice) and produced others the previous years, with one going to series: NYC 22. It gives Limitless an extra chance to be picked up to series and it will probably be a huge draw for international buyers at the screenings next June. Limitless is produced by CBS Television Studios.

Shock as Laghey PO closure confirmed
The Post Office in Laghey will not be re-opened, the Democrat can reveal.
Both Senator Brian Ó Domhnaill and Joe Gatins, Chairperson of Laghey Post Office Action committee confirmed the news yesterday.
Senator Ó Domhnaill said he was "shocked and appalled" and would be demanding a full explanation from the Minister.
"This will come as a major blow to the community and will certainly have an impact on local businesses. Since Laghey Post Office was closed suddenly in July, the people of Laghey village have been without a proper postal service, with older people and those in receipt of social welfare forced to travel to Donegal town to collect the payments owed to them.
Mr Gatins said: "I got word from An Post that they won't be re-opening the Post Office, looking for a new premises, or establishing a sub-agency here.
"We were very surprised at the negative response as we thought there was some sympathy for our situation. However, it would appear that the welfare of small rural populations is not a priority for a semi-state company such as An Post."

Integration enhances security
Tracking, controlling and responding to events are accomplished more efficiently when all data generated is interfaced and controlled from a single point. The AlphaCom system offers centralized control over an entire security system through control room stations, PC based control handler software and interfacing to third management systems. AlphaCom seamlessly integrates with a range of systems such as CCTV, IP and PBX telephony, radios, DECT telephones, public address and access control. Through this integration, the AlphaCom functions not only as an independent communication system but as an integrated part of the control center.
Remote control and networking
The STENTOFON AlphaNet CCoIP technology allows each control room to support many sites and devices. Up to 552 AlphaCom exchanges and thousands of intercom''''s can be connected to the control room over the IP network. This means that from a single security post, CCTV cameras, PA, barriers and door locks in a number of remote sites can be controlled with the push of a button.
