Glowing eyes twitched. Rael moaned as he struggled to sit up. His head suddenly surged with pain as blood flow raced from flowing so slowly. He moaned in pain.
"Damn on-board stasis program..." he groaned.
It was fail-safe in case his experiment did fail. He theorized that Geth were able to detect life signs through heart beats. His on-board suit computer injected him with a drug that slowed his heart beat down to almost nothing. Not enough to kill him but enough so he was able to
"play dead". He struggled to his feet. The drug had a bigger kick than he expected.
Rael finally went into a slight panic as he remembered exactly what happened before the drugs were injected. He was leaving a message for his daughter in case she came for him. Then the
door blew open. Since he was unarmed, he activated the drugs to knock himself out so the Geth did not take him out; making them think the explosion killed him. Around him he saw the dead bodies of his colleagues. It pained him to realize that this was his fault.
Though he saw bodies of Geth lying all over the place. Their "blood" sprayed all over. Must have been teh marines, he thought. Many of them considering how many geth inhabited the ship. By now they know what he has done. He wanted to keep his promise to his daughter and in his
haste, he ruined that chance. Rael turned and went up the stairs expecting to find a squad of marines to escort him off the fleet.
Rael got to the doors and opened them to find no one. Just more dead geth. Up ahead was the terminal. He walked over to it and tried to activate it.
"What the hell?" he mumbled. Nothing came up. The entire terminal was wiped clean. Absolutely nothing came up.
Rael tried accessing everything he could, but the terminal was left blank. Finally he sighed. They must have taken it. At least his mistake will help his people. Rael activated communications, trying to reach the Admiralty Board. Instead of getting the board, a live video was shown to
him instead. The video was being broadcasted to every ship on the Fleet. It was of a trial. At the stand was his daughter and her human Captain, Shepard. His daughter was on trial for Treason!
Rael pounded his fist against the wall. He didn't want his daughter to take the blame for this. An epiphany dawned on him. It was her and Shepard that came in here. That means they wiped the drives. But why? Unless...
"No!" he screamed. That bosh'tet captain better not let her get exiled, or he'll hunt him down!
"Sorry we're late," his daughter said.
Shepard stepped forward. "Tali'Zorah saved the Alarei. I hope this proves her loyalty to the Quarian people."
So this is Shepard. He certainly knows how to talk, I'll give him that.
"Her loyalty was never in doubt, only her judgement," Koris replied.
Damn suit wetter. They don't honestly think she's responsible for this?
"Perhaps Tali'Zorah can offer something to encourage more trust in her judgement," Shala added.
"Did you find anything on the Alarei to clarify what happened there," Gerrel finished.
Shepard looked at Tali like he was conflicted. He walked forward.
"Shepard, please..." she begged.
It dawned on him. Tali and Shepard knows what he did and she's begging him not show the evidence! You damn well better show the evidence!
"Does Captain Shepard have any new evidence to submit to this hearing?"
Shepard reached the podium and said, "Tali helped me defeat Saren and the geth at the Citadel. That should be all the evidence you need."
What is he doing?
"I fail to see what relevance-" Koris said before being interupted.
"You not really interested in Tali, are you? This trial isn't about her. It's about the Geth!"
"This hearing has nothing to do with the Geth!"
"You want people to sympathize with them!" Shepard slammed his fist against the podium. This caused Koris to take a step back. "Han'Gerrel wants to go to war! None of you care about Tali! She knows more about the Geth than any other Quarian alive. You should be listening to her not putting her on trial. Tali'Zorah saved the Citadel. She saved the Alarei. She showed the Galaxy the value of the Quarian people. I can't think of stronger evidence than that."
"Are the Admirals prepared to render judgment?" Shala announced.
The three Admirals opened their omni-tools. Rael gasped at that speech. Why would this human put so much passion into his speech for one of their people? He saw Tali watching Shepard with her hands resting on each other. It finally dawned on him. The stories his daughter told of him,
they way she talked about him! They loved each other. Why would she love him? Again it dawned on him. He was there for her. In the good times and bad.
This was his fault. All of it. Now his daughter is going to be exiled because Shepard is following her wishes. Koris briefly hesitated before casting his vote.
"Tali'Zorah, in light of your history of service we do not find sufficient evidence to convict. You are cleared of all charges. Commander Shepard please accept these gifts in appreciation for taking your time to represent one of our people."
Rael's eyes widen. He did it... The human actually got his daughter exonerated! Rael chuckled to himself. Still one problem remains. Him. Rael had to find some way to explain what happened.
Shepard's omni-tool beeped. "If you appreciate me, then listen. The Reapers are coming. Please don't throw away your lives against the geth."
"Thank you, Commander Shepard, I hope the Board considers your recommendation."
"This hearing is concluded. Go in peace Tali'Zorah vas Normandy. Keelah sa'lei."
The video ended leaving Rael quiet. Within the next several hours he had to think of a good explanation of what happened on the ship.
* * * * *
Rael spent the next several hours sabotaging the power cords to simulate a power surge. One good power surge caused the random activation of one geth part. Completely random accident. He'll be cleared and still able to continue his work. With more safeties this time.
He heard several footsteps behind him. "Everyone thinks you're dead," a cold voice said.
Rael recognized the voice. It always gave him chills. He turned around to see Xen standing there.
"I assumed they found something they didn't like here. And here you are." She looked over his shoulder. Rael was too stunned to reply. Xen shook her head. "And destroying equipment. Shame, shame. Everything here was your fault. Despite how well, Tali and Commander Shepard wiped the drives here, I was still able to recover files. Sensitive files."
"What are you asking for, Xen?"
"It seems we're both in an interesting position. I could hand over the evidence, but... That wouldn't help anyone. Especially me. See I'm interested in your research. This isn't about destroying the Geth. It's about controlling them."
"Then we're both more alike than I thought. Now if you suddenly reappeared that would raise too many questions. Questions I don't want answered. Shepard did an admirable job in covering yours and Tali's tracks, so I would suggest this. You remain dead. But in secret we continue your research."
"I-I made my daughter a promise."
"The house on the homeworld, yes?" Xen leaned forward getting in Rael's face. He did not like her being so close to his face. Too intimate.
"Yes..." he sighed.
"Work with me and you'll be able to keep that promise."
Rael glanced around the ship. "Alright."
* * * * *
Hell. The place where beings of any race go when they commited wrongs during their lifetime. Where they are punished for those wrongs. That describes this place. Rael made a deal with the devil and now he's reaped what he's sowed. This was supposed to be a secret agreement turned into slavery. Slowly but surely, Rael started to lose more of his privileges. His suit has been neglected. It was barely recognizable to what it used to looked like.
Daro injected him with stimulants occasionally which made him lose nights of sleep here and there. He couldn't tell how long he was trapped. Weeks? Months? Doesn't matter. He's stuck here. This place where he deserves to be.
Daro'Xen. His devil. His punisher.
Rael was tortured every day either emotionally or physically to push himself further to complete these experiments. Rael was fed the bare minimum to stay functioning. He wondered which of his misdeeds he committed to deserve to be here. The lives those were lost due to his recklessness? The Fleet he risked due to his experiments. In any free time he was given, he would think. Rael sometimes wondered if he even lived through what happened on the Alarei. Maybe this was really hell. A place he was ironically forced to do his research with the devil Daro beating down on him.
Soon enough he realizes his crimes. It wasn't about the Fleet. It wasn't even about the people who died due to his recklessness. It was about Tali, his daughter. The thought of her brought tears to the tired warrior's eyes. It all came to him. He neglected her, her whole life. And even since the death of his wife Kila, he became even more engrossed into his work. That was a time he should have been supporting her through that difficult time. Rael wasn't even sure he ever told her that he loved her.
That was his crime. Neglecting his daughter. That was an unforgivable crime. It all made sense to him now. This research would benefit the Fleet, but in exchange, he would never be allowed to see his daughter ever again. A fitting fate. Time and time again he longed to hold his daughter in his arms. To make up for his crimes by just telling her he was proud of her. That he loved her. And that he was sorry for being a terrible father.
He was going to die here. That was what he accepted. Once he's no longer useful to Daro, she would just leave him in his cell and let him starve to death. That is his fate. That is his rightful punishment.
Beep, beep!
Rael looked to the door. It was being opened. He sighed painfully. Rael hasn't had a meal for a couple of days now. Either Xen was going to feed him, or she's going to put him out of his misery. The door opened revealing a human wearing a mask with blue eye lights.
"There's someone in here!" he called out to someone out of sight.
"I'm coming!" a female voice said. It was quarian.
Rael was lying on the ground, too tired to move. All he could do was groan.
"He's in pretty bad shape," the human said.
The Quarian came from behind him. Rael's eyes widened. It was his daughter. He wanted to call out to her, but he was too weak. His vision began to blur and then black out.
* * * * *
Rael grunted as he awakened. The room he was in was very bright. Next to him was an older human woman. She looked at him.
"I see you're finally up. You gave us a scare. You were suffering from malnutrition and sleep deprivation."
"How long was I out for?"
"About a couple of days. We're heading to the Fleet now."
"Who are you?"
"I'm Doctor Chakwas."
"A pleasure to meet you."
"What happened?"
"To you?"
"I mean the ship I was on."
"Oh." Chakwas moved her chair right next to his bed. "Just how long were you on that ship?"
"Months at the very least."
"Then you don't know what's happened in the last while."
"Enlighten me."
"Well, shortly after Shepard and his team took out the Collectors-"
"The Collectors? He was able to take them down?"
"Without a single casualty. Incredible isn't it? Turns out they were Protheans working for the Reapers."
"A race of sentient machines that have repeated a cycle of extinction every 50000 years. That so called Geth flagship, Sovereign, was a Reaper."
"And the Collectors were Protheans?"
"Yes. The Reapers have a form of mind control called indoctrination. The surviving Protheans were enslaved and turned into the monsters that we know as the Collectors."
"That's... That's a lot to take in." Rael rubbed the front part of his visor.
"Yes. Well after destroying the Collector base, he cut his ties to Cerberus. He finally had enough evidence to prove the Reaper's existence. So Shepard has been spending time building our forces for the Reapers' eventually arrival. He currently brokered a peace between your people and the Geth."
"What?" Rael nearly fell off his med-bay bed.
"Easy," she said to calm him down while holding him in place. "We found a geth platform that was sent to communicate with organics. Shepard specifically. This geth was from the main geth faction. All the geth your people and everyone else have been fighting were called heretic geth who followed the Reapers. The main geth faction saw the Reapers as much of a threat to them as anyone else. So Legion, as we dubbed him, joined Shepard's team and assisted us in taking down the Collector base. Due to the trust Shepard gave Legion, the main geth faction has agreed to give your homeworld. The Fleet has been transporting non-combatants onto Rannoch for a week now."
Rael couldn't speak. Shepard did in a few months what he couldn't do after years and years of research. He gave Tali a home. Shepard gave his people a home to call their own.
"I realize that this is a lot to take in. But there's a bit more. Daro'Xen, the Admiral, nearly ruined this peace process. She was trying to release a virus that would have reprogrammed the Geth, but Shepard, Tali and Legion were able to stop her in time. They killed her in the battle and then they found you."
The door to the med-bay opened. Shepard walked in. "How is he, Doctor?"
"He'll make a full recovery."
Shepard sat down next to him. "So who are you?"
The voice and name made Shepard jump. "B-But, you're dead! We found your body. No heart beat."
"An on-board medical stasis program that injected me with a drug that slowed my heart beat to nothing, so I was able to play dead."
"Chakwas, please leave," Shepard said in a firm tone.
Chakwas left quickly.
"You have any idea what your death did to Tali?" he growled.
"I can't even imagine. I woke up and saw the trial that went on. You... You defended my daughter against the other Admirals. You protected her." There was a sad tone to his voice. "Daro was the first person to come to the ship where she found me. I was blackmailed into continuing my research. Eventually it became enslavement. All these problems with Daro Xen happened because of me. I don't think I can ever make up for it, or the neglect I have shown my own daughter. In that hell I was stuck in, I only came to realize what I've lost. My own daughter. I don't think I can ever make up for it."
Shepard was moved by his words. He was furious at this man. The man who never told his daughter that he loved her. But before him was a broken man who realized his mistakes. "Sir. Admiral."
Rael looked up at him.
"It's not too late to change things. You can still tell her everything you never did."
Rael nodded. "You're right. But before you call her up, I need to ask you something."
"Do you love my daughter?"
Shepard sat up straight. There was a slight pause before he answered. "With all my heart, sir."
"I thought so. I just knew it when I saw you give that speech at the Trial. You were there for her, when I failed. You fought with fire to defend her. Even complying with her wishes to not show the evidence I left. I'll be honest, if I met you before the Trial and I learned this I would have killed you. But seeing the conviction you displayed at that Trial, there's no doubt about your intentions with her. Frankly, I don't think I could think of a better man for her."
"Thank you, sir. That... Means a lot."
The med-bay door opened. There stood Tali. "Is he okay?"
"He's fine," Shepard replied. "Uh, there's something you should know."
"Tali..." Rael said in a quiet tone.
"F-Father?" Tali choked.
"I'm so sorry."
"Father!" Tali ran up to him and wrapped her arms around him and cried.
"I'm sorry for everything, Tali!" he choked. "I'm sorry for being a terrible father. I'm sorry for leaving the Alarei mess for you."
Tali's cries only became more audible as he talked.
"I'm sorry for never telling you how proud I am of you. And I'm sorry for never telling you that I love you."
Shepard sat out of the way.
"I love you, Tali."
"I love you, too, father," Tali cried. "H-How are you here?"
"An on-board medical stasis program that slowed my heart beat. I was later found by Xen who blackmailed me into slavery. I'm so sorry for everything. I promise you I'm going to be a father."
"That's all I ever wanted from you."
"I-I also know of you and Shepard."
"Y-You do?" she said in a frightened tone.
"It's okay, Tali. He's a good man. And what matters is what makes you happy."
"Th-Thank you. But how are you going to explain what happened on the Alarei or why you're alive?"
"I don't know any way around it. I'm going to have to confess to my crimes."
"No!" Tali yelled. "I can't let you get exiled, especially from our homeworld!"
"I don't see any way around it."
"Xen, modified your safety protocols," Shepard added. "In secret he was trying to improve upon your research, but it went hay-wired. You were the only survivor of the catastrophe and Xen captured you so you couldn't tell anyone what happened."
"That didn't happen," Rael chided.
"No, but that's what we're telling the board," Shepard replied. "Xen is going to be posthumously exiled for her crimes, we might as well add yours to hers. Anyways, Tali needs her father and we need an admiral in the coming Reaper war."
"He's right," Tali said.
Rael nodded. "Alright. Though I won't let myself become absorbed by my work again Tali. The time I spent in that cell made me realize what is truly important in my life. You."
Tali hugged her father again. It was like life was finally going her way now. First the man she loved comes back to life and declares his love for her, and now the father who was never there for her, was now saying everything she always wanted to hear him say.
"Though tell me. What is our world like?"
Tali looked her father in the eyes and said, "Beautiful."

Tessa Souter – The Calm in the Storm
There aren't too many vocalists who can get fans to come out in the midst of a monsoon. Tessa Souter is one. Her performance Tuesday evening, July 15, at Blues Alley, provided more than just shelter from the storm. Tessa, accompanied by an outstanding trio of musicians, delivered a varied program featuring some of her favorite songs and some new additions. She changed up tempo and emotions, taking us to the depths of despair – "I will forget how it was at the start, before hello and goodbye" – then to the heights – "All or Nothing at All" – and everything in between.
Tessa comes too infrequently to D.C. (jazz venues, please take note), so the chance to see her perform no doubt motivated those who braved the elements. She appears regularly at Bar 55 in Greenwich Village, and her two upcoming engagements include Jazz in the Garden at the Newark Museum on July 31, and the Iridium on September 10.
Great musicians like to appear with great vocalists, and this time around Tessa was backed up by Allyn Johnson on piano, James King Junior on bass, and Lenny Robinson on drums. Tessa, who gave each one time to shine, seemed as mesmerized as the audience by the talent of these three musicians.
Those who have had the pleasure to see Tessa perform know that her vocal talent is just part of her popularity. Simply stated: she connects with the music, the musicians, and the audience. With her comments in between her songs, she brings fans inside her creative process, sharing her thoughts on specific selections and why she loves to perform these pieces. Before she was a singer, Tessa was a writer, perhaps one reason her lyrics are so articulate and meaningful. Her set list this time out included selections from her Beyond the Blue album (read our review), and one she hopes to include on a future CD, "A Taste of Honey."
For more information on Tessa Souter, go to her website.

Gemma: Hidden Figures!
Rasha: Hidden Figures! This was the right movie to watch at the right time for me. For all of us maybe?
G: Yeah, that's about where I landed. At other times I would have gotten frustrated with the sentimentality, but honestly, we need it. These particular sentiments are sentiments I am currently welcoming into the world.
R: Yeah, it felt Disney-adjacent in the lightness of tone and careful avoidance of directly depicting violence or strong language, but I don't feel like it pulled any of the emotional punches. I think the lightness of the surface succeeds because the story is so grounded in the viewpoint of the three women at the center–we are given every scene through their reactions and actions rather than from the reactions of anyone else. From that broke-down car scene at the beginning through to the launch at the end.
G: Yes, I'd agree with that, and in the main we had actors who could hold us in those perspectives. I think Janelle Monáe wasn't quite up to the standard of the other two, but given the depth of their experience that's no surprise; she could be someday. Can we talk about Taraji P. Henson's RANGE for just a second? Because seriously.
R: I'll be honest that I still see Cookie, even when she's wearing glasses. But I don't mind! And Monáe I will stan for.
G: See, I couldn't see Cookie at all, and it delighted me to no end, as did the way the little girl's facial expressions matched hers entirely. (The little girl from the beginning, not her daughters. Younger Katherine.)
R: Janelle Monáe has this cool demeanor, cool like a mountain is cool. I don't know that she was playing a character that was too far from who she is, but that actually felt satisfying to see. Again, I am a hardcore stan.
G: I accept that. I had more to say in her favor in Moonlight. She just feels a bit like an amateur beside Spencer and Henson, but most anybody does.
R: Monáe feels more reserved in her acting choices. In the same way that Archie Panjabi is never going to be the same kind of performer as, say, (insert more emotionally motile actress here). You know who I really liked together in this movie? Henson and Mahershala Ali had amazing chemistry, just smooth and satisfying without stealing too much juice from the main storyline of Katherine's success at work. I had forgotten until he showed up that he was going to be in the movie! Sigh, that's my cousin right there. Imma go see his movies like he's family.
G: Yeah, they were sweet in their little moments. (I really can't do the comparison of Monáe's work with Panjabi's, but I understand that I pushed you. I didn't dislike her.) Ali always makes good choices of stuff to be in now. And he made a good SAG awards speech, from what I hear.
R: You need to hear it yourself.
It may not change your world, but to see him stand as a conduit for the strong energies moving through him in that moment –I'm going to go see anything he's in.
G: I will follow.
R: He was loving and firm and not shook.
G: I also want to give craftsmanship respect to Melfi even with the sentimentality–making a compelling movie about math is very hard. And yes, of course it was not Really about math, but even to make math plot points.
R: It was fantastically satisfying. I mean, they had to dramatize math and fossil-era computer programming! I walked out of the movie thinking: These women (and many other women in many other fields) did some of the hardest sh*t in the history of humans total–like objectively hard SPACE MATH sh*t–and they did it at a time when everything else was hard, just families, cities, society, the world was objectively and GLOBALLY hard. That is some good fuel in the tank right now. I keep them like a diamond in my mind. I need to read the book, I think, to get under the glossiness.
G: Ooh, I would read the book! I forgot there was a book.
Oh, I forgot to mention how much I appreciated Henson as a slapstick actress of the grand old style. Her runs through those parking lots. The lightness made the confrontations register in the heartmuscle.
G: Yeah, that was pretty marvelous. I still don't get how you still saw Cookie in Henson! She played someone so internal! (Btw, "Say You'll Go" just started playing on shuffle. Monáe will have her moment.)
My father was saying yesterday that Dorothy was really the anchor, the Point, even as Katherine was unquestionably the protagonist. I'm buying it more the more I think about it.
R: Yes, that is correct. Dorothy is holding the vision. She's the boss.
G: And the simplicity with which she took her boss-dom and brought the community with her felt real to me.
R: How much does my geekgrrl heart LOVE to see her reprogram that ancient dinosaur computer.
All the much. Yes, she is a general, deploying powerfully skilled women and training her forces. It is again, Good Fuel.
G: Yes, 'tis. My grandfather was actually connected to the engineering of that ancient dinosaur computer, I think.
R: Was he the dude who hooked it up wrong or the dude who yelled at that dude? I am joking of course, but this may bring me to a bit that rang a little too light to be true in the film: Was it just me, or was John Glenn playing the impossibly magical white boy unicorn in this script? The guy they cast looked like a bad mimeograph copy of Chris Evans' Captain America.
G: Oh, gracious, yes. He annoyed me.
R: There is no way I believe that John Glenn was actually like that. John Glenn, were you like that? Was Costner's character like that?
G: Next question for the Ouija board.
R: Maybe he can punch some nazis in the sequel. That's what has me excited about Captain America look-a-likes these days.

You should get your blood tested before cycle,halfway through, and around 6 weeks after pct. the blood test done before cycle will let you know if your body is ready for your cycle. The test half way will let you know how your body is reacting to your cycle. And the test 6 weeks after you have completed your pct will let you know if your body has recovered. The tests you should get to see if your body is ready include A complete blood count which will give you an idea of overall health(Liver,kidneys,blood cell health). Another important test is a chemistry panel which lets you know what your Cholesterol,hdl,ldl,Triglycerides,Cholesterol/hdl ratio.

Windsor Castle
When Windsor Castle tragically caught fire in 1992, the charred main beams were the only part of the kitchen's lantern roof to survive.
Project profile
The restoration of Windsor provided a interesting challenge. Prior to rebuilding the roof, with its complex design, ornate spandrels and decorative carvings, we first began by researching historical diagram's to ascertain what had been lost in the fire. Fortunately for Carpenter Oak & Woodland, we are privileged to employ some of the most respected and knowledgeable specialists in the industry. After months of painstaking work restoring the roof, we think the results speak for themselves.
The Worshipful Company of Carpenters Special Award was given 'in recognition of the outstanding achievement in the restoration, recreation, new design and quality of craftsmanship at Windsor Castle'.

If you are looking to buy a new perfume, always consider if this will certainly smell as good on you as it does inside the container. The only method you can find out is for you to try things out with a number of scents, one particular scent at a time. It is the long lasting outcome that the perfume gives you that truly matters, not really what you believe of it at first. Every person's body chemistry is differs from the others and for this reason one particular scent stay longer on some people's body compared to other people.
The easiest method to test out which perfume is most effective with your body chemistry, is to apply the perfume to your pulse areas. Pulse areas are usually the location where the bloodstream are nearest to the skin's area and for that reason it produce a lot more heat. For this reason you must never test out more than two fragrances at the same time. One perfume at a time is the most suitable.
Then simply on and off the whole day, smell the particular perfume you are testing and even put much more within the exact same pulse area but on a different day for the purpose of evaluation. If for example the perfume possesses a fragrance that you really like every time you test that, it's likely you have just discovered the best perfume for your body chemistry.
Do people truly experience this procedure? Absolutely! Not all people. However, based from some of the experienced persons that is definitely really worth your time and effort.

I got this sweater as a gift and after one wash the logo and lettering on the front started peeling.

Love the colour and material. Nice and snug in the sleeves but too long in the body.

No 20090701, Working Papers from Università degli Studi di Milano-Bicocca, Dipartimento di Statistica
This paper proposes a test of the null hypothesis of stationarity that is robust to the presence of fat-tailed errors. The test statistic is a modified version of the KPSS statistic, in which ranks substitute the original observations. The rank KPSS statistic has the same limiting distribution as the standard KPSS statistic under the null and diverges under I(1) alternatives. It features good power both under thin-tailed and fat-tailed distributions and it turns out to be a valid alternative to the original KPSS and the recently proposed Index KPSS (de Jong et al. 2007).

If you follow me along on Instagram you'll know we all got some cool shades from SmartBuyGlasses. Maybe I am biased but I think the kids look super cool and their eyes are protected from the rays. Did you know that kids eyes are more susceptible to UV and HEV radiation than adult eyes because the lens inside a child's eye is less capable of filtering these high-energy rays?! Also, there is something called "Blue Light". Long term negligence may cause nerve damage in the eye. Below I've selected glasses for my kids and a variety of price points to the $30-$100.
My sweet pea is wearing her Julbo's which are more of a sporty style which is just like her. She loves to run, jump and the versatile style of her shades suit her perfectly. It's her style. Her lens is a Spectron Silver Flash and a Category 3. It means that they provide extra protection from both visible and UV light. These lenses will usually only allow less than 20% of visible light to penetrate the lens. This means that they will block out 80%+ of light and offers 100% coverage.
Now her twin is more of the little fashionista and she idolises her brother so I thought maybe they should have a similar look. Knowing your kid's style is one of the key decision factors when it comes to picking out sunglasses for kids in my opinion. Her Polaroid glasses are spot on. Her glasses are a Category 3. That means they provide extra protection from both visible and UV light. These lenses will usually only allow less than 20% of visible light to penetrate the lens. This means that they will block out 80%+ of light and best against strong light. Polaroid sunglasses offer 100% UV coverage, they are comfortable, hers are polarised as well do no eye fatigue. Who knew did Polaroid make such great, quality sunglasses?
And well I think you know what I picked out for my son's look. He gets comments on his sunglasses from everyone. "Cool shades, dude!" these are from Police Lifestyle. Super stylish, super cool and the lens are so good in all the styles I picked. The Orange lenses match well with this frame and are made from CR39 to shade your eyes from the sun and offers the same 100% UV protection. There's really no shortage when it comes to finding the right frames for kids when you shopping. You want good lens and ones that offer at least 80-100% UVA/UVB protection.
Do you choose plastic or metal? I choose plastic for kids and ones that tend to be more flexible. Also, because their noses are still developing plastic is more comfortable and easier on the bridge for their noses. It's never too early to have kids learn about caring for their eyes and it's never too early to have good quality eyewear for kids and don't forget to get chords for those shades.
And don't forget about your eyes! Get the look {here.} You need to protect them too. Oh! You should check out their Authenticity Guarantee. All glasses are backed up with a 24month warranty against manufacturer defects. We loved reviewing our gorgeous sunglasses from SmartBuyGlasses. My new favourite shop for online glasses. Delivery came quickly too via Fed/Ex.

Historical Stallions
Komoko's Little Husseler
Measured 26 1/2"
Sire: Komoko's King Tut
One of the smallest miniature stallions of his time, Komoko's Little Husseler set a world record when he sold to Robert Pauley of Hobby Horse Miniature Horse Farm, Bedford, Virginia. It was 1982 and Joel "Bob" Bridges had a production sale, where Husseler sold for $12,500. After three years with Hobby Horse, Husseler was sold to Bob and Sandy Erwin, who were looking for a tiny herdsire to add to their newly formed NFC Miniature Horse Farm. For $25,000 they felt that he was just the right stallion to join the likes of Hemlock Brooks Egyptian King, Rowdy, and a host of other stallions.
He remained as a mainstay of the NFC program until their dispersal in 1993, when he sold to Eric and Marilyn Meyer, World of Miniatures, in Canada. Sometime later, they moved to Texas where, at the age of twenty-six, he made an impressive appearance at The Miniature Event's Stallion Avenue.
As a sire, he has seventy-two foals registered with AMHA and appears in literally hundreds of pedigrees as grandsire and further back. He was very notable for his wide-set large eyes, which I see continuing in his get for generations. I have one of his daughters and several of his granddaughters that you can pick out by their pretty heads and very prominent eyes. He is one of the special stallions whose get continue to show his mark.

Brad Miller has been a professor in the Computer Science department of Luther College since 2003. Prior to joining Luther College Brad was Founder and Vice President of Product Development for Net Perceptions, the leading supplier of recommendation system software until the Internet bubble burst in 2001. Some of Net Perceptions' customers included Amazon.com, N2K CDNow, J.C. Penny, Great Universal Stores, and over 70 others. Miller, along with Steven Synder and Ph.D. advisor John Riedl founded Net Perceptions on the Miller deck in 1996. The company was an outgrowth of the Grouplens research group at the University of Minnesota. While at Net Perceptions Miller grew a team of software developers from five to 130 people working on six different products.
After an Article in the New Yorker magazine by Malcolm Gladwell, Net Perceptions was featured on an ABC Nightline show in Dec 1999. In 2000, Miller, CEO Steven Snyder, and CTO John Riedl received the World Technology Network award in the Commerce category for their contributions to E-Commerce. Net Perceptions also received the MIT Sloan School E-Commerce Award for Technology Innovation in May 1999. In 2010 Miller and the rest of the Grouplens research team from the University of Minnesota were recognized for their lasting contribution to the software world with an ACM Software Systems Award.
At Luther, Miller is engaged in a new line of research, exploring technologies and tools for interactive textbooks. This work is under the umbrella of Runestone Interactive. Two textbooks, developed with the Runestone Tools, are used at Luther and over 300 institutions around the world. The book is open source and available to anyone who wants to learn computer science. We have readers from over 170 different countries around the world. The textbooks are available on our website . In addition to teaching and researching introductory computer science Miller also teaches Networking, Computer Graphics, Machine Learning, and Internet Programming.
Interviews and other cool Stuff
- Interactive Textbooks: After writing two editions of two paper textbooks, I said "enough!" Every time I wanted to write a sentence, all I could think about was how much better it would be if it was interactive. Thus, in 2011 Runestone Interactive was born. Since 2011 our Python data structures book has been made interactive, and a new CS1 book created. See the Interactive Python site to sample the books.
- Rideshare: The Rideshare project at Luther College has provided an ongoing source of web development work for students for five years now. This open source project is used by Luther and several other colleges.

Contrary to many that believe workouts need to be rigorous and high impact to achieve a target figure, there are alternative ways such as Pilates that can produce better and more long-lasting health benefits.

Let us help you reach your goal of achieving a better and leaner figure. Contact our studio today!
Pilates is among the most famous strength exercises that health enthusiasts all over the world use to improve their legs, arms, core and glut muscles. This routine involves the use of repetitive movements, slow breathing exercises, intense mind and body concentration and accurate positioning of your entire body.
It was first introduced by Joseph Hubertus Pilates, a German self-defense instructor. He created Pilates to balance the body, mind and spirit. After his death, his work was carried on by Rudolf von Laban who incorporated dance with that of the basic movements of the original routine. At Vie we practice what's called Classical Pilates that holds true to the Pilates practices by Joseph Pilates with very little deviation.
Through this exercise routine, you can develop a well-toned abdomen and stronger back muscles. You can also benefit from developing longer, leaner and more flexible muscles which most traditional strength workouts fail to provide. Aside from the improved muscles and body strength, you can also lower your risks of getting physically injured.
In your Pilates program you will learn how move more smoothly and develop better posture. Compared to traditional workout routines, this is a low-impact exercise that works perfectly no matter how old or how young you are.

Whichever type of arrangement works for you, our supportive family is here to guide you all the way.
Our Pilates instructors are fully trained to teach accurate body movements. We employ certified trainers who use classical teaching methods. Through our experts, you can learn various movements such as the Vie Roll up, which will help you improve your core, back and hamstring muscles. This movement is often compared to regular sit-ups because of their similar effects on the muscle.
However, unlike conventional sit-ups, this roll up movement produces better effects on the back, leg and core muscles as well as your spine. There are also several other exercises that our skilled staff can teach you. One is the Series of Five, which many refer to as the best routine to develop perfectly chiseled abs, and the Pilates Push Up, which is an advance movement that develops the power and agility of your muscles.
Most people believe that a fitness program will cost them an arm and a leg. At Vie Fitness, we defy common health notions by offering affordable options for all the aspiring students out there. In addition to the one-on-one top Pilates Ann Arbor has to offer, our Private sessions ensure that you get a personalized routine in an affordable class setting. You can opt to pay per session or purchase our packages that come in 8, 16 and 24 sessions.
For individuals who prefer group exercises, we offer Tower Pilates, a 50-minute class that focuses on your abs, arms and legs. In this semi-private session, you will work out with five other fellow gym members. This option is a first-come first served basis, so you need to sign up early.

Comics about Popski's Private Army
Over the years we have found three old comics with PPA stories in and have negotiated with their publishers to bring them here. We're somewhat envious of our Libyan Desert Expeditions pal Kuno Gross though, who has amassed arguably the largest collection of Desert-War-Special-Forces Commando and War Picture Library comics [foPPA Secretary grew up on these]. Here's just a few from Kuno's collection: click the image to see the whole lot on his Desert Stories website...
|Part of Kuno Gross's Comic Collection
2 Mar 2014 [Secretary]: I was recently contacted by Kuno, on behalf of Italian aerospace expert and Professor of History Gregory Alegi, with a query about an eminent Italian cartoonist called Hugo Pratt (English grandfather). Pratt claimed to have entered Venice with Popski in 1945, and also claimed that a Polish-Jewish Officer called Vladimir Koinsky was also in PPA, having served with British forces during the East African Campaign, and Gregory wanted to know if these claims stood up. As I'd never heard of either of them I had to say sorry, no[1]. However, further research has suggested (there are several different version of this story) that Hugo did enter Venice with a column of Canadian Armoured Cars, apparently taken on by Eighth Army as an interpreter, so could have been in Venice around the same time as Popski's one-day visit.
After the war Hugo went on to international success as a leading creator of adventure comic books and to be posthumously inducted (he died in 1995) into the Comic Book Hall of Fame at the 17th Annual Will Eisner Comic Industry Awards in 2005. Hugo Pratt drew extensively on carefully researched historical material, and his most famous creations were "The Desert Scorpion" and Corto Maltese, but it seems he always had a soft spot for Popski. Intrigued by all this I asked Kuno and Gregory if they had any examples of his comic book depictions of Popski and his fictional pal Koinsky. Indeed they did (of course), and here are just a few of them...

Gregory Alegi then kindly sent us a couple of Hugo's images from the Italian Campaign, specifically related to the 28th Garibaldi Brigade who fought alongside PPA and the 27th Lancers for the liberation of Ravenna in 1944, and then in the subsequent fighting around Lake Comacchio, on the way to Chioggia and Venice in 1945.
The dapper looking chap, Benito "Marx" Ravaglia, was indeed a member of the Garibaldis, whilst the "Bulo" referred to in the cartoon strip is Signor Arrigo Boldrini, who took as his nom-de-guerre ("Bulow") the name of the eminent Prussian General Friedrich Wilhelm Freiherr von Bülow whose troops triumphed against Napoleon at the Battle of Waterloo in 1815. In 2008 we wrote to Arrigo to invite him to the unveiling of the PPA Memorial, and he replied with a very charming letter of regret that he couldn't attend, sadly dying shortly after. Signor Taschiero Casadio of the Garibaldis did attend though, and a speech was made on behalf of the National Association of Italian Partisans.

Valiant, 1963, and Smash, 1970
Here's the font pages of two comics from the foPPA Archives, and the helpful people in the copyright department at IPC Media have very kindly given us permission to reproduce them here, in support of our fundraising for the PPA Memorial.
The Valiant story was only a front-page feature in 1963 but the 1970 Smash edition tells a longer tale of derring-do (we're working on getting hold of page 2 and any more of the story from inside the comic). In the 1970's Valiant and Smash were amalgamated.
So, knowledgable fans of the Popski story: are there any more comics out there that we don't know about?
Valiant © IPC Media Ltd
5 PPA jeeps in the desert? Not until they got to Tunisia and were generously refitted by US II Corps Quartermaster Colonel Myers. The chap climbing up behind Popski on the left there is Corporal Alain Locke, ex LRDG, sporting his characteristic eye-patch and goggles, later a Major in the Intelligence Corps. The picture bottom right depicts the Italian action in which Popski lost his left hand.
Smash © IPC Media Ltd
PPA jeeps with windscreens? Those were the first bits of unnecessary weight to be stripped off. Along with the canvas "tilt" roof, these only belonged to what PPA scathingly referred to as "sissy jeeps". And where's the jerry cans and extra ammo boxes? We think the chap with the natty hat may be Kiwi Gunner Edgar Sanders MM, ex-LRDG, "the scruffiest man in the British Army". The chap behind him is wearing arab headdress, but we've seen no pictures of PPA using these: only the LRDG and SAS.
Magazines for Real Men, 1955 - 1994
Ah, comics for grown-ups too. Here's some more goodies from the foPPA Archives. True magazine has a feature-length abbreviation of Popski's book, from a simpler, pastel time when men were real men, and women didn't believe them even then.
The "World War Two" partwork, Volume 7, Part 92 (1979), has articles about various Commando operations, Otto Skorzeny, and PPA, while "Troupes D'Elite" fom 1986 has some great graphics in its story about Popski. We've no idea what it says though as our Fronch is not very good at all.
"Behind the Lines" (Jan/Feb 1994) is all about Special Ops, including Part II of the story of Popski's Private Army by Michael F. Dilley. Can anyone get us a copy of the Mar/Apr 1993 Part I issue?

Commando War Stories In Pictures #50: "Clash of Steel"
Another of the comics we discovered was "Clash of Steel", D.C. Thomson's Commando issue number 50. This is the only issue to feature PPA but we have so far been unable to locate an original copy for the archives. However, Commando Editor Calum Laird very kindly agreed to let us reproduce it here below. Meanwhile, D.C. Thompson are working to make the whole Commando back-catalogue generally available. What's most amusing about the artwork is the tiny size of the jeeps! They almost look like dodgems.

text: My kids went to Kellond (TUSD), BASIS (For a year) and now Academy of Tucson. I think all three are great schools in their own ways. Kellond has some great teachers. They are limited by kids/parents who don't care and thus coursework speed is moving with the average of the mass. BASIS covers quite a bit academically and was super challenging for my over achieving daughter and was too hard for my "average" son. As a note my daughter was thrilled when I told her we were moving them to Academy of Tucson. She said the high pace at Basis was stressing her out . Her pediatrician didn't want her their either as he sees kids with stomach problems from the Basis stress. I expected Academy of Tucson to be half way between Basis and TUSD on coursework. After a year there with two kids - it looks like its slightly closer to Basis than TUSD. My kids are doing better emotionally with the slightly slower pace. Basis is a great school of the high achievers. It is selective like Darwin. The achievers will make it, all others will fall. For me personally the issue with Basis isn't the speed or how demanding it is, its how parents are willingly sacrificing their kids social and play time (which are forms of development) for academic success. Life isn't only about test scores and Ivy league schools. My opinion

US Scientists Developing Program to Translate Middle Eastern Tweets
The popularity of microblogging service Twitter has spread across the globe, and the US government has taken notice. Twitter was one of the earliest means of communication for the Egyptian protestors, and could potentially be used to gain insight into what ordinary people in the Middle East and South Asia are thinking and feeling.
Of course, many people who live in these countries don't tweet in English, so first you have to translate what they are saying.
The problem: Flesh-and-blood translators cost money, and there's a shortage of qualified translators for certain languages. People don't always or even primarily use Twitter to talk about politics or other weighty topics – there's also a lot of mundane chatter on the network. There's no point in having professionals spend their time translating what someone in Pakistan ate for breakfast this morning. Read more

Blogmas Day 11 – In the Spotlight with Memories and Mishaps
Hey y'all and welcome to Blogmas day 11!
As always once a week I post up an interview from my latest series and this week's is with Melissa from Memories and Mishaps.
Melissa's links will be below, so lets get on with the show *boom boom*
How long have you been blogging for?
I've been blogging for almost one year and I honestly can't believe how fast that time has gone! It's kinda cool knowing I've got my own little part of the internet. Perhaps I'll throw a little birthday party when it turns one!!
What's the hardest thing about blogging?
Sometimes it can be really hard to be creative and think up new blog posts. Even if you have ideas for a post, knowing how to start that post and fill it with content can be hard work.
Any blogging tips?
Don't pressurise yourself to blog at certain times or more frequently – if you're not feeling it then don't force it! I find when I'm not forcing myself to write is when I most enjoy blogging and more ideas pop into my head.
You're a lifestyle blogger, what attracted you to that genre?
I'll be honest, I found it hard to settle on one particular area. Being a lifestyle blogger means that I can blog about a variety of things.
Sweets or chocolate?
Definitely chocolate! I couldn't live without it. I am actually a Type 1 diabetic and a lot of people are under the impression that I can't or shouldn't be eating it, but as long as I inject enough insulin to cover what I've eaten then it's alright. All in moderation, as they say!
How do you get your blog noticed?
I use Instagram and Twitter to promote my blog. I've only recently started using Twitter but I'm finding it has helped so far as it's so easy to share blog links. Following and commenting on other blogs also helps – and it's always nice to share the love!
Favourite season of the year?
Oooh it's hard to choose, but I think I'd go for winter. I like being able to wrap up all snug and not worry too much about what I'm wearing underneath my coat haha! I do like summer (if we actually manage to get a sunny day or two!) but I get too stressed out fussing over what to wear.
Have you ever considered vlogging?
I think vlogging is great, but it's just not for me. I'm not very confident so videoing myself for all to see is a no-no. Unfortunately I'm not happy with the way I look and I can also get quite anxious, so the combination of the two means vlogging is out of the question at present. Maybe in the future I'll try it, but I'm happy with the normal blog posts for now 🙂
Any advice for people looking to become a blogger?

Flights To Londom
They like to have a regular changeover week, and Sunday has been it. So, for British visitants, Corsica probably was a niche destination. On p of this, study the Privacy and Cookie Policies to figure out more. It is since island is so reputed with holidaymakers from mainland France, accommodation is always in shorter supply. There usually was method in flight plan, that may look mad. Then, a vast UK proportion guests to Corsica were always travelling with specialist ur operators.

Happy Easter
This Easter have a lovely time and a little yoga in your life.
Yoga is an art of being present, so wherever you are now, notice something around you...it could be a dingey car park lit up by the sun or a flower like the one I picked up here, or just a friend's smile. Happy Easter being present!
If you want to do some hatha (physical) yoga practice too try your own timed sun salutations. Try and extend each movement/transition to 5 seconds each (5 secs forward fold, 5 flat back, 5 plank chaturanga, 5 up dog, 5 down dog) and repeat for say 10...it's pretty hard actually!
Whichever you go for have a lovely day! Namaste!

WASHINGTON — Republican Rep. Joe Heck ripped into leaders of his own party on Friday after reports circulated they might not bring up immigration bills for House votes.
"It's extremely frustrating and very disappointing to hear reports that the House does not plan on voting on immigration reform legislation this year," he said. "This is yet another example of the leadership vacuum in Washington that rightly has so many people frustrated with this dysfunctional Congress."
Heck's outburst comes as he has worked to embrace a friendly position on comprehensive immigration reform. The two-term lawmaker is seeking re-election in the 3rd Congressional District whose voting population is 14 percent Hispanic and about 13 percent Asian.
Over the summer, Heck spoke approvingly of granting a path to citizenship to 11 million immigrants who are in the U.S. illegally, although he said he would oppose a Senate bill that contained that but also a number of other provisions. He also has been working on a version of the DREAM Act that would grant citizenship to young immigrants.
Heck's approach has helped blunt attacks so far from Erin Bilbray, his Democratic opponent. But Bilbray said Friday that the new developments show Heck has little influence within the Republican Party.
"If Joe Heck can't get something done with the leaders of his party, it's time to send someone to Congress who can," she said in a statement.
House Republican leaders have said they will not bring up the Senate bill they say is too far-reaching and complex. GOP-controlled committees have approved five smaller bills that address aspects of immigration although not the most controversial topic of citizenship.
But Politico reported Friday that Republican leaders are skeptical their preferred bills could gather enough GOP votes, and they also distrust President Barack Obama after having tangled with him over the government shutdown.
With 19 working days left in this year's session, they are prepared to set the issue aside, the news site reported, although House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, has said publicly he would like to move forward.
"There are bills that have passed committee that could be brought to the floor next week, but the House Republican leadership may punt the issue until 2014 for political reasons," Heck said in his statement
Heck spokesman Greg Lemon said the Nevadan has not independently confirmed the news reports but "he has had numerous conversations with House leaders about his desire to do something this year."
Southern Nevada immigration activists were not so fast to applaud Heck for standing up to his leaders.
"It's frustrating," said Laura Martin, communications director for the Progressive Leadership Alliance of Nevada. "People have gone to his office week by week, month by month asking him to say something to his leadership. He's had a long time to get something going."
In the absence of votes on immigration reform, Martin said the only vote Heck has on record is an unfriendly one from this summer to defund the Obama administration's program to defer deportations.
Some activists demanded Heck show his commitment to immigration reform by co-sponsoring a reform bill written by House Democrats that is similar to the Senate version.
Lemon said that was doubtful, noting the Democratic bill is going nowhere.
"His co-sponsoring wouldn't do anything to bring it up for a vote," Lemon said. "He wants to see bills moved to the floor. Showing frustration with his own leadership is a telling sign of his commitment."

(KMOV.com) -- Authorities say a woman's decision to bring her pet monkey to a dog outing in a Godfrey park went awry when the primate bit a boy on Sunday.
The incident happened during a "Bark in the Park" event at Glazebrook Community Park, located in the 1400 block of Stamper Lane, around 3:15 p.m.
Police said the monkey's owner brought the java macaque and her dog to the yearly annual event.
Authorities said both animals were on a leash, but the monkey's possessive of the dog. So when a boy tried to pet the dog, the monkey chomped.
The 6-year-old was treated at the hospital for lacerations and bite marks to his arm.
Dixon says the woman hasn't been ticketed or charged. But he says the county's animal-control agency is investigating.
The Associated Press contributed to this report.

Shangri-La Hotel,Qaryat Al Beri, Abu Dhabi
By Khadija Bhaijee Tuesday, 14 May 2013
- Previous
- 1 / 2
- Next
This stunning Arabian oasis situated along the beach offers beautiful views of the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque. Interconnected by a quaint and sparkling waterway with abras (traditional) Arabic boats) to ferry you into the hotel or to provide you with a scenic tour, this property is one of the most unique ones we have been to in a while...
The Luxurious Rooms We chose to stay at the premier room with a private balcony overlooking the Grand Mosque. It was comfortably equipped and airy but my favourite parts were the large mosaic and marble bathroom with a walk-in rain shower, bath tub and separate toilet and the delicious jasmine tea and sweets that greeted us on arrival. Also, the hotel offered a unique service – being able to choose my own type of pillow for extra comfort. There are a plethora of other room options to stay in, including ones with a garden terrace, fabulous suites and expansive villas.
Pearls and Caviar We chose to eat at Pearls and Caviar, the Mediterranean seafood restaurant and opted to sit inside. While the outside, located by the waterfront, offered stunning views of the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque, it was too cold to sit there. The ambience inside was a combination of elegance and a bit of bling. The food, as we had heard often, was delicious. Of the starters, the hand-dived loch fyne seared scallops were absolutely tender and juicy. Between the appetiser and the main, we were served the Scottish salmon – a chef's special – that was beautiful. Despite not being a salmon lover, I absolutely had to try it! One bite later, it was gone. My main, the Norwegian halibut, was served in a broth with parsnip and cabbage – a nice, hearty alternative to a regular light fish. My favourite part was the dessert of course. I tried the pistachio crme brle which exceeded my sugar loving expectations! After or before your meal, you can enjoy the Pearl Bar – a fun spot on the rooftop. We decided to go there after hearing the lively and upbeat music being played by the resident DJ. It was a great way to let our hair down!
Other restaurants on premises There are several culinary options available in the hotel:
? HOI AN This award-winning Vietnamese restaurant is vibrant and colourful and provides a refreshing change with more traditional recipes. Vietnamese photos and art work hang on the walls and trinkets adorn the shelves and tables. A selection of set menus takes you on a journey through modern and classic Vietnamese dishes.
? SHANG PALACE This popular Chinese restaurant gets very busy so book early!
? BORD EAU This elegant contemporary French restaurant epitomises glamorous fine-dining in a chic setting. It's perfect for a romantic dinner with your loved one. Go with a large appetite as the menu is packed with gourmet treats.
? SOFRA BLD Buffet breakfast is served here every day. While the regular favourites, eggs, muffins, French toast and waffles, are there in plenty, we opted for the more adventurous option – large honey comb oozing with natural honey! It was absolutely delicious and was melt-in-the-mouth fantastic. The restaurant also has various themed nights through the week and serves cuisines from all around the world.
Leisure There is plenty to do at this large resort, including an exclusive onekilometre beachfront setting, five outdoor pools, a roof lap pool that I loved, two gyms (mixed and female only) and a yoga room. Classes including Tai Chi, spinning, yoga were there as well. I heard that classes get busy so if you want to do one, book in advance – sometimes even two weeks ahead! We chose the lazier option – laying by the pool side bar and feasting on food and beverages throughout the day. We also visited the souk by the abra and enjoyed a medium-sized Arabian market with paintings, jewellery, clothes and artefacts.
Chi, The Spa Located between the bridges, the spa is truly a haven of personal peace, enchantment and wellbeing. Treatments and massages are based around authentic natural healing methods practised by Asian cultures. The room, a dimly lit and large space, even had our own showers available if we chose to use them. Our treatment – the Arabian Date Ritual – was a one hour long and at a price of Dhs500, was worth every minute. The masseuse nourished our skin with a blend of dates, coconut milk, almond and vanilla. She then enriched our skin with vitamins and minerals; we walked out with silken skin and soothed minds. We were told that we should be careful opting for this treatment if we have spent the entire day sunbathing. The exfoliating process could be very harsh on sun damaged skin and may cause a lot of pain in this case.
