14 Easy Halloween Makeup Tutorials For The Laziest Costumes Ever
Some people really go all out for Halloween; others scrape by doing the bare minimum (or even go costumeless – gasp!). If you're a mom, you probably spend the vast majority of your creative energy on your kids, and while that will inevitably lead to some adorable costumes for your little ones, you deserve to enjoy the festivities too. These super easy Halloween makeup tutorials somehow manage to find a middle ground between prepping your costume for weeks on end and neglecting the holiday altogether. Honestly, you could be wearing just about anything, but as long as your makeup is on point, you'll be good to go for the spookiest day of the year.
I know exactly what you're going to say: Makeup is time-consuming and creating an entire Halloween costume around t it sounds super complicated. Fear not. I'm not exactly Picasso with a blush brush, and I promise these tutorials are super easy. Like easy enough that you could slap it on and be out the door in 20 minutes. Seriously, with just some makeup that you probably already have at home, possibly a few pieces of clothing from your closet, and maybe some candy corn to fuel you up, these easy makeup tutorials will have you dressed to kill for All Hallows' Eve.
1. Wednesday Addams
Go for a creepy classic with an easy Wednesday Addams look. The best part about this costume is that you probably already have everything you need to nail it. Braid your hair, throw on a black jumper over a white button-down, and you're good to go.
2. Pop Art
This super artsy pop art makeup look has become so popular over the past few years, and I am so here for it. With this easy (yes, seriously, this is totally doable) look, you can be your comic book heroine this Halloween.
3. Black Swan
This will always be one of my favorite Halloween looks. It's creepy and fierce, but still pretty. It may take a slightly more skilled hand to get it just right, but being bold ballerina for a night is definitely worth the work. Throw on some black leggings and leg warmers and pretend you're on your way to the big performance. Voila.
4. Glamorous Cat
I'm pretty sure that it's an unspoken rule that every woman will dress as a cat for at least one Halloween during her life. It's super easy and just got even fiercer with this Youtuber's take on it.
5. Mermaid
Mermaids are having a moment, and you can easily transform into a modern-day Ariel by following this innovative tutorial that uses fishnets to help you create a fun scalelike texture. If you don't have the time or inclination to get into a full-on mermaid costume, wear your regular clothes and go as Arielle with her land legs.
6. Deer
Whether you're inspired by the Disney classic or the flirty Snapchat filter, a sweet doe costume is an easy last-minute look to pull together. You could even make it punny and go as "Oh Deer."
7. Creepy Jack-O'-Lantern
Pumpkins have become a staple of fall (PSL, anyone?), and you can bring the basicness even into your Halloween festivities by donning all orange and this adorable, yet kinda spooy, jack-o'-lantern makeup.
8. An Optical Illusion
You only need two products for this and people won't be able to stop looking at your face. Sounds like a win-win to me.
9. Scarecrow
Few things say "fall" more than scarecrows so why not embrace a staple of the season with this cute makeup look? Added bonus: You could sing "If I Only Had a Brain" anytime you make a questionable choice.
10. Ron Swanson
Okay, I have to admit this one actually looks a little tricky, but it's so cool. This makeup artist is so talented, and she has a whole video series of transforming herself into various characters. So if Ron Swanson isn't your cup of tea, check out her channel for more inspo. If you're an ambitious Parks and Rec fan though, this one is definitely worth a shot.
11. Dog Snapchat Filter
Snapchat filters have come and gone, but there is one that has stood the test of time (if you can count the lifespan of Snapchat filters as a true test): the dog filter. It's cute, easy, and relevant!
12. Vampire
If you want to terrify your friends, family, and literally everyone you pass on the streets, pop in some colored contacts and follow this step-by-step to the best, creepiest vampire look. Of course, it works without the contacts too, and then you won't scar you kids for life! (Kidding...)

Emma Watson and Jamie Dornan have been voted the most shiftable celebs by Irish public in NOW TV survey.
Your heart may always belong to your long-term love, but what if you were given a 'free pass', a no consequence kiss with your celebrity crush? A chance to get it on with your favourite TV or movie star while your partner turns a blind eye?
Ahead of the most romantic day of the year, NOW TV research reveals that a quarter of Irish adults, from a survey with 1,848 people, would consider giving their other half a 'free pass' in their relationship - that's one way to share the love!
The survey was conducted by NOW TV, the only online streaming service which features the very best TV, movie and box set content, all without fear of having to enter a contract.
Signing up is easy, simply visit www.nowtv.com/ie and purchase a NOW TV Pass of your choosing without a contract. The perfect Valentine's present, a NOW TV Pass allows you to watch your favourite shows and movies with no consequences.
Shift or Drift?
NOW TV asked the Irish public to rate TV and movies stars based on whether they would go in for a shift or drift away from certain famous faces.
Unsurprisingly, Irish heart-throb, Jamie Dornan (Fifty Shades Darker) was the most popular male on the shifting scoreboard (32%), and English beauty, Emma Watson, truly is the 'Belle' of the ball as the top female choice (34%).
Modern Family's Sarah Hyland (16%), Logan star Hugh Jackman (15%), and Fifty Shades Darker female lead, Dakota Johnston (14%) also featured high on the most wanted celeb shift list.
Not so Sexy in the City
Once the sexiest show on air, 'Sex and the City' doesn't seem so hot now, with respondents choosing Ben Webber, who played love-lorn Skipper in the series, (1%) and Cynthia Nixon, who portrayed feisty lawyer Miranda, (0.5%) as stars they would most likely drift from if given the opportunity to share an intimate moment.
John Lithgow, who played serial-killer Arthur Miller in Dexter, and funny girl Lena Dunham, best known as Hannah from Girls, didn't rate well on the shift-ometer either, with less than 1% saying they would lob the gob with one of these actors.
Free Pass
According to the NOW TV survey, a very open-minded 25% of Irish couples already have a free pass arrangement in place.
However, not all would use that for a quickie with their celebrity crush. Almost a third (30%) of respondents said that if given the chance for a consequence-free critique this Valentine's Day, they would tell their partner that they are the most stubborn person they know.
The next most irritating qualities that couples would highlight to their other halves include taking up too much of the bed and being extremely messy. It was also discovered that more women (22%) than men (14%) would like to tell their partner they're too dramatic.
Love is (still) all around us
Despite openly wanting to score Jamie Dornan and telling your partner they possess ox-like qualities, the NOW TV survey still found that romance is well and truly alive.
Almost 3 in 4 (72%) Irish adults say they will mark Valentine's Day with their other half on February 14th and a romantic dinner or a weekend away (27% each) is considered to be the perfect Valentine's gift.
Commenting on the survey findings Michael Forry, Head of NOW TV, said: "NOW TV is the unique streaming service that lets you dip in and out and watch the best TV shows and movies on your terms and without the consequence of signing up to a long-term contract.
A NOW TV Pass is the perfect Valentine's gift for the single and the settled, with 300 box sets and over 1000 movies to choose from this Valentine's Day."

My mom called me one day to ask if I wanted to go to a little town called Jefferson, located right on the east edge of Texas. I think her old lady club (love ya, mom!) had been talking about it and she wanted me to go with her because she knew my old lady soul would enjoy it too. Spoiler alert: she was right!
We got in Thursday evening, just in time to check in at the Excelsior Hotel, which had been in business (and historically protected) since the 1850s. My mom booked us in the "Ladybird" room, which Ladybird Johnson had actually stayed in. It was so cute! Besides the antiques in the room, including a massive four poster bed and a magnificent wardrobe, the floral wallpaper was exactly my style.
Friday morning had us up early to start the day, enjoying the "Plantation Breakfast" provided by the Excelsior. The funny thing we soon learned about Jefferson, was that nothing really opened until ten in the morning. So after a rather lazy start, we made our way to the Museum of Time and Measurement.
Here we walked through the three rooms, guided by the owner himself, as he answered my mom's questions and showed us his massive antique clock collection. He had just opened a special music room where he had a new collection of music boxes and phonographs. Everything there was so cool!
Next it was time for our first home tour! We explored the "House of Seasons," a beautiful three story home with as much done as possible to keep it true to its past. At the top, facing every cardinal direction was a pane of stained glass, all different colors to relate to the different seasons. This stunning detail is how the home got its name. The sun would hit the panes of glass at different times, creating a really beautiful color effect down the center of the house.
After a quick pit stop for lunch at the Bayou Cafe, we hurried back to the Excelsior to catch their tour. This hotel is taken care of by the Garden Club, who give a tour not only of the rooms that are unoccupied, but of a stationary train car across the way. This train car was the personal train car of Jay Gould, who was an infamous mogul back in the day. The rumor is he stayed in the Excelsior and when the town wouldn't go for his train route deal, he left and cursed the town. (Soon after the dam that kept the river high was destroyed and Jefferson could no longer be the major outpost it was trying to be.)
We explored the town some more by doing a carriage ride tour. It was a nice break from walking around doing a bit of local shopping. By this time we were famished and I'd heard good things about Austin Bistro. Boy, I'd heard right! You have to get their homemade bread if you go. We started with the assorted bread basket, and it was so good!
My mom and I were having such a blast, but we'd packed in a lot of activities! We were learning so much, seeing so many homes, and taking a true tour through the past. Just as the town opened at ten, it closed by five – and that was fine by us! We were ready to embrace the old lady spirit and relax as much as we needed.

Last winter was our first one in Oregon. We didn't get any snow, but did spend a weekend hunkered down after an ice storm. It was fun watching the local news while we warmed by the fire. :)
I grew up in Michigan and learned to drive in snow there. I've only driven in snow 2 times in the past 8 years however. This year, we were home for TG and I got to do it again. Overall, it wasn't too bad. I only ditched the in-laws car once. I was the only one in the car and the snow bank was soft. I worked it out of the ditch and there was no damage, so I figure no sense in telling them. :twisted:
Marion, what part of eastern oregon did you grow up in? I went to high school in Bend (central oregon) and went to the U of O. I know what Muz means about the other drivers. Learning to drive in the mountains and then having to drive around people that haven't is a scary thing. They would really be better off just staying home.. and out of the way. Yeh, drove in an ice storm in Portland once. Went to a Kansas/Cheap Trick concert and Cheap Tricks trucks had flipped and destroyed all their equipment. There was about 1000 people who made the show, and Kansas rocked for two hours straight. Only problem was I wrecked my mom's car on the way home from my friends house. Ah, good times...
3F on its way down to -6F tonight. 3 to 5 inches of snow.
Crazy, crazy. It's barely rained this year and we're getting 1 to 3 inches of snow forecast for tomorrow. ](*,)
It's been -13 and snowing off and on all week; about an inch and a half snow total. We don't get much snow here, what does fall is pretty dry and fine.
Winter driving is second nature to me. I learned to drive in winter, passed my drivers exam in a blizzard.
Right now it is currently 1 F (-17 C)
When I got up it was -6 F (-21 C)
Our Average LOW for this time of year is about 23 F (-5 C)
When I walk out the door my skin HURTS!!! I have been warming up the VAN in the morning and taking my son to the School Bus. When the bus arrives he gets out then on the bus. We all stay a bit warmer that way.
Darth-Daddy... Stuck on HOTH
Flee the dark side......come to the light!
Still snowing here, might be up to almost a foot by now. It will be a choir to get the kids outside while I snowblow the driveway or the wifey won't be making it in the driveway. hmmm, that might not be such a bad idea, making here walk in the snow past her knees. :lol:
-13 F, -25 C this morning, ideal ice-fishing weather.
When I went to get the paper this morning my hands were still a little damp from washing them. My hand froze to the storm door handle, nice!
It's warming now; we should be at 50 F, 10 C by Friday.

Some years ago I visited my brother in Cape Town. He put together the most amazing itinerary: the 'big five' in Kruger National Park, then, closer to town, lounging on the beach and watching the cold surf in Kleinmond; seafood on the sea shore in Hermanus, wine and escargot for the price back home of burgers and coke, in Franschhoek; Table mountain, flowers and weddings in the Company Gardens, and hiking up Lion's Head. This however is not what I am to him most grateful for.
Rather, it's the tireless manner in which he drove me to every bookstore I could find in the country, and his patient waiting as I pored fiendishly over miles of shelves full of new and used books. After which, I can happily report that Cape Town and environs is home not only to the world's
most fecund floral kingdom, but also a thriving literary life.
Almost everyone I met with during my visit spoke of Cape Town's growing literary community, of how, after years of neglect by the chains, independent bookstores, such as The Book Lounge and Kalk Bay Books, were now, as the Lounge's Mervyn Sloman put it 'filling the void, treating customers with respect, hiring people passionate about the profession, and caring about more than just stock-turn over.'
Just looking through the Book Lounge's author reading line-up for the Spring months was exhausting: three or four authors a week, minimum. It was there that I heard Andre Brink talk about his memoirs, A Fork in the Road, and where I met Ben Williams, owner of SABooks.co.za – a cluster of micro-sites for authors and publishers, news and reviews – who, in two words described the state of South Africa's publishing industry: 'high' and 'ferment.' The heat has apparently been building for the past ten years to a point where there are now more books and local authors being published in the country than ever before.
In fact, South Africa currently in the throes of its own Harry Potter-sized success story. "Spud," a comic novel about adolescent life in a boarding school, written by actor/ playwright John van de Ruit, has purportedly sold more than 250,000 copies. The third Spud (a kind of Adrian Mole on speed) was launched at the Cape Town Book Fair recently where cues of fans reportedly 'snaked around for hours' while the author signed copies.
Local crime fiction is also enjoying a sales boom. As Margie Orford, a successful crime novelist whose Blood Rose has just been optioned for film, tells me "The spectre of the past is there – racialized cities and identities, a psycho-geography of violence and spatial separation, but also an exuberant storytelling where the big issues of the State of Literature are resolved in and through the interaction between the odd casts of characters that inhabit the crime novel – to me the cops, the crooks, the murderers are the coalface of our Rainbow Nation. So that has been a marvelous development."
During the first Cape Town Book Fair Orford spoke on a crime panel to a room half empty. This year (only three years on) the panel spoke to a packed-to capacity-room full of fans of local crime fiction.
No one is quite sure of the reason for all this of success, although Stephen Johnson, Managing Director of the recently merged Random House Struik, thinks that it has to do with a new freedom to tell stories, to write not against things, but for them. A climate that now, despite government corruption and the new president's proclivity to litigate, encourages the letting loose of imagination.
Still, despite this heady picture South Africa's book-buying public is, says Jenny Hobbs, Literary Director of the Franschhoek Writers Festival, "too small to fund even a scant living for most local writers."
As Andrew Marjoribanks, managing director of the Wordsworth book chain in the Western Cape put it, the key to future success lies in penetrating literacy and price barriers, 'be it through cheap romances or whatever, the goal is to get people reading,' just as Harry Potter pulled a whole generation of youngsters into the pages of big books.
The country's population remains overwhelmingly illiterate and, says Hobbs, "our government's track record since the 1994 election has been pathetic when it comes to library funding, though literacy and reading support programmes are picking up as the government (at last) becomes more serious about the essential value of reading. What we need as well are cheaper popular paperbacks, especially in the major black languages, and to abolish the unconscionable 14% VAT tax on books."
Getting people who know how to read, to read, is one thing. Teaching those who don't, how to, is quite another. Those with the most disposable income are still primarily white. This relatively small percentage of the population represents the majority of book buyers. Until the government – and to a lesser extent all those connected with book publishing – understands that simple schooling is not enough…that a knowledge culture must be nurtured … that books need to be made more easily accessible…and the entire population needs to be encouraged to revere reading… until things are done to make this happen, the traditional rich markets may well continue to flourish, the publishing industry may continue to go squirrel with all the work its getting, but a far bigger, potentially more lucrative nut will remain uncracked.

Unfortunately, You're Correct!
Building check dams is the most destructive of the human activities listed here. Aquatic insects are gill breathers that dwell under rocks. When you move rocks to build a check dam, you kill the insects which are the major food source for the fish. Also, moving rocks in the stream disturbs fish nesting areas, blocks fish passageways, and moves rocks that fish use to hide from prey. Fish such as darters and some dace species only live in riffle areas which are the areas people typically alter the most. Finally, most of the threatened and endangered fish which live in the park will abandon their nests and their offspring will die if they are disturbed in any way. So, please refrain from channeling the stream and moving rocks so that we can all do our part to protect and preserve our native fish species.

They can come in the form of a no deposit free bet, or a deposit bonus free bet, for example, deposit £10 get a £10 free bet. Finding a free bet offer is so easy, you do not have to look very far. Especially with Bookies Bonus, we have located some of the best free bet bonuses right here.
In 2019, the amount of matched deposit free bet bonuses has risen, to the point where the majority of welcome bonuses are matched deposit free bets. What this means, is that you will be required to make a deposit or wager, above a certain amount, once you have done this, you will then be able to claim your free bet. There are a lot of terms and conditions that come with these types of offers. Customers will first need to place a qualifying bet, that needs to be above the minimum amount suggested in the terms and conditions. For example, you may have to wager a minimum of £10. You may then be told you have to wager this on market odds of 2.00 or greater. The reason why bookmakers have this in place, is because it will stop customers from being able to bet on a selection that is almost guaranteed to win and still being able to win a free bet. Once you have successfully abided by the terms and conditions, you will be granted with the free bet funds.
Matched Deposit Bonus:
Possibly more rewarding bonus offer, especially if you are a high betting punter, is a matched deposit bonus. A matched deposit bonus is a bonus that will give you a cash reward, based on how much you deposit. An example of a matched deposit bonus could be "50% up to £50". What this means is that if you deposit £100, you will get an extra £50 to play with.
In terms of wagering requirements and bonus rules, these kinds of offers can be stricter and more difficult to comply with, as more money is on offer here. Terms and conditions for this offer tend to be strict on wagering requirements and also expiry dates. If customers do not meet the wagering requirements of spend the bonus funds within a certain amount of days, the funds will expire, this can sometimes rush customers into spending the funds. That is why it is more beneficial for a punter that is going to wager a high amount per bet, rather than a penny punter. These types of bonus offers typically occur mainly with casino bonuses.
Betting Offers for Existing Customers:
There are a range of different betting offers available for existing customers to claim, which is very important for customers to continue to feel appreciated and excited at a sportsbook. There are different offers for customers to take advantage of. Some bookmakers offer more bonuses than others, again it is typically the more established bookmakers that have the variety of offers. Here are some of the existing customer bonuses that you can get your hands on.
MoneyBack Offers:
Moneyback bonuses are one of the types of existing customer offers that are common to find at a bookmaker. These bonuses are also risk free, which will invite customers in as they have nothing to lose. The moneyback bonuses also great ways of experiencing new markets as they generally apply to specific events. For example, you may get a moneyback bonus up to £20 on a horse race. If the bet comes in, you win money, if not, your betting stake is returned as a free bet, so essentially you aren't losing out on anything. It is not always the case that you will get your money back for your bet losing, it could be something like if the horse you backed finishes in second place, and you have it to win.
Loyalty Schemes & Bonuses:
Loyalty schemes are one of the most common and most appreciated types of betting offers for existing customers. Loyalty schemes allow customers to claim weekly rewards, even daily rewards in some cases. This is a great way of encouraging customers to place bets and also make betting more entertaining, as you know that despite the way your bets conclude, you can still claim a reward at the end of it. An example of a loyalty scheme may be £5 free bet when you spend £25 a week on betting. Here are some of the best loyalty schemes that we recommend for existing customers.
- Betway: The Betway loyalty scheme allows players to claim £10 in free bets every week! This can be rewarding for you and it is also something to work towards to make betting more entertaining. The requirement for this offer is to be £25 or more on football accumulators each week. The £10 is split into 2 £5 free bets.
- Unibet: UniBet have an exciting loyalty scheme in place for customers to try out. This is called the Unibet Free Bet Club. The reward for this is a £10 in-play bet. This live betting market is constantly growing and is very popular, a market that you may not have tried before, with more selections and markets being added to this market itself. In order to claim this, offer, you must place 5 £10 in-play bets on odds of 2.00 or greater.
- BoyleSports: The Boylesports free bet bonus will grant players with a £5 free accumulator bet. In order to receive this, customers must place 5 £5 accumulator bets in order to qualify for this promotion. Accumulator bets are very popular and also rewarding betting types if they are successful, so why not make them even more rewarding with a free £5 acca bonus.
Reload Bonus:
A reload bonus is a bonus that will give you a percentage bonus on the next deposit that you make. For example, you may be given 50% added onto your next deposit. This is a great bonus to be rewarded with as it gives you the sense of a welcome bonus offer, for playing at your sportsbook and not having to sign up to a new betting site. A common reason why customers may change bookies is due to an appetising welcome offer that they have found, so a reload bonus can stop them from doing this.
Enhanced Odds:
Another great betting bonus if you are an existing customer is an enhanced odds bonus offer. This will help you maximise your winnings if your selections are successful. For example, you may be able to claim double your standard winnings or even triple. Betfred are well known for this kind of offers. Where they will take your standard bet and double or even triple it if certain events occur during the fixture.
Promo Codes:
Bookmakers can offer promo code bonuses for customers to claim. A promo code offer can come in the form of both a new customer promotion and also an existing customer bonus. Upon registration, customers may be required to enter in a specific promo code to claim a certain offer. If it is a bonus for existing customers, they may be required to enter the promo code in when they make a new deposit. Without these promo codes, players will not be able to activate the offer in context. Like will all bonuses, there are terms and conditions to be abided by. For example, if it is a deposit promo code, you may have to deposit a specific bonus amount, in order to claim the promo code bonus amount. These promo code offers will add excitement to your sports bets.

I've licensed my pet in the past, but never online. What do I do?
Best-case scenario, this year you'll renew online and create your pet's full profile.

Why do I have to renew my pet's licence every year?
Cities and towns provide a lot of great services to help keep our communities safe and when it comes to pets, it's easy for things to quickly become out of control. town officials are responsible for everything from animal control and pet rescue, to maintaining dog parks and city trails. You do your best to keep your pet safe and happy but we all know, accidents happen. A licence allows city officials and your fellow citizens to identify an animal, contact their owner, and make decisions that are in the best interest of the pet.
- 3
Since the last time I licensed, my pet has been spayed/neutered/microchipped. How can I update their profile to receive the correct rate?
The Town of Ajax provides discounted licensing rates for spayed/neutered and microchipped pets. If your pet has been sterilized or microchipped since their last licence, you will need to update their profile to reflect these changes. Once updated, you will automatically be charged the correct rate when you renew their licence
- 4
I renewed my pet's licence but didn't get a new tag. Why?
99% of the time it's because you did not specify you would like a new tag when completing the renewal process. For the sake of not generating unnecessary waste, we would recommend only replacing your pet's tag if the tag has been lost or is showing signs of wear. You can order a replacement tag through your online account for $3.
- 5
Wondering when your new tag will arrive?
Typically tag shipments are received in the mail 10-12 business days after your order is processed. You can login anytime and access your profile and not to worry, city records will show your pet has an active licence.
There's no ifs ands or buts about it, licences are required to be renewed prior to their expiration date for all pets living in Ajax.
The fine for an unlicensed pet in the Town of Ajax is $125.

I was talking with a friend yesterday and asked "What would you like to read about in my Friday Message?" She said "Why do I continue to do what I shouldn't, and why don't I do what I should?"
Yipes! I was hoping for something easy!! Let me say right off that I don't like the "should" word, yet oh my - how I relate!! So let's look at these two questions:
1. "Why do I continue to do what I shouldn't?" ... I'd like to be flippant and say "Because we can" ... However, that doesn't really answer the question. There is a group of us who are working our way through the "Women, Food and God" book. It has opened my eyes to a few things. I love tortilla chips ... and I swear the shopping cart has a mind of it's own when it passes that aisle. I know I shouldn't buy them because I will eat them when I'm not physically hungry - and not just a handful either! I've observed an argument going on in my head as I move past that aisle - "Oh, you could get a small bag." "There are no small bags." "You don't have to eat them all in one sitting." "I don't want to even tempt myself." "A few chips won't hurt you." "No, I don't want to be tempted." "Who made the rule that you can't have chips?" "Well...I did... so maybe I could just eat a few at a time..."
Most of the time, I end the argument by forcing the cart past the aisle, even though the chips call to me all through the rest of my shopping experience.
But when I don't avoid the aisle, why do I continue to do what I shouldn't?
As I've learned in the Women, Food and God book, there's something else going on - something deeper. I realized I have to stop and sit with the situation. What am I really hungry for? What does my Spirit want in this situation?
2. "Why don't I do what I should?"
Many people I know are self-employed, and find themselves playing on the computer, reading novels, doing house or yard work or laundry, instead of working. Maybe it's phone calls that need to made, bookkeeping that needs to be done, or going out to contact clients. We find all sorts of ways to avoid what we think we should be doing. This answer is simple -- we're afraid to put ourselves out there -- afraid of rejection or doing it wrong, and we're avoiding feeling that fear.
Again we have to stop and sit with the situation. What does our Spirit want in this situation? Then feel the fear, and do it anyway!
One thing I know for sure -- if we have a clear Vision of what we want - whether it be a healthy, trim body, or a successful business -- and we are committed to that Vision -- the tyranny of the shoulds is not so frequent. So perhaps the real questions is: What does Spirit want to do through me? By the way, the word "commit" comes from the Old Latin and means to "join together." You are not in your Vision alone! God and you are doing it together!!
We live in an infinite field of creative potentiality. Using the Divine Aspects of Love and Law, we can be anything we want to be, and do anything we want to do. All this is possible because this Field is Divine Energy and this is what we're made of.
I now declare I am finished with the tyranny of the shoulds. I pay attention to the Divine Vision that wants to express as me. I allow myself to get enthused with it, creating in me a willingness to do what it necessary for the fulfillment of this Vision.
I remember I am not alone. There is That Within Me that is serving me well, and has only the highest good for all concerned in Mind. I trust this Presence, knowing that it is infinitely intelligent, and that all the answers are within me.
I step up to my Vision, I re-commit myself to it, and I move forward gratefully, acknowledging my Source. I breathe deeply and say YES!
I release these words into the Law of Mind knowing they are done, and so it is.

I own and operate a 500 employee group based in Chicago. We met Michael and Silvia at a convention in Long Beach, CA in 2018. Upon meeting them and learning of their services, I decided to use them for the filing of my 2017 1094/1095's. Their team was able to not only file everything within 4 days, but also saved me from paying the large penalty I faced. It was a smooth facilitation and I was truly impressed with their professionalism. They really saved my company from the tight spot I was in. I totally recommend ACA Compliance Solution Services, Inc. to anyone in need of ACA filing help.
I have been working with ACA Compliance Solution Services', Inc. team since the end of 2017. Whether it be for 1094/95s, 5500 forms, or even ERISA docs, they have been their time after time and saved my company countless time and money. They are a great partner to work with.
Knowledgeable, great service and a life saver that is all I can say!!! I was first introduced to Glenn and his team last year through my friend. My corporation received a 226-J letter from the IRS and we were panicking as we knew that this could be the start of a potentially expensive problem if not handled correctly. However, ACA Compliance Solution Services dealt with the IRS for us and was able to reduce our tax burden from over $200,000.00 to under $10,000. They were terrific and I will be using them in the future for our filings.
Glenn and Silvia have been a big help to my client. I first learned of ACA Compliance Solution Services, Inc. through a colleague of mine. It is always a bit worrisome when referring a client to a new company for assistance as you don't know what to expect. However, Glenn and Silvia were terrific and processed my client's 1094 and 1095 forms quickly and effortlessly. I definitely recommend their services.
ACA Compliance Solution Services, Inc. has been a huge help to my clients. As a broker, it is imperative that I refer my clients to trustworthy and confident businesses. Silvia and Michael are the epitome of excellent customer service. They have consistently saved my clients countless hours of time and effort in resolving their compliance needs. More importantly, they are always there to answer questions no matter how big or small. I strongly recommend using ACA Compliance Solution Services.
I recently found ACA Compliance Solution Services, Inc. through a Google search as I was in need of assistance in filing my business' 1094/1095's. As I was a bit late on filing, I was concerned about how long the process to file would take. However, Michael was able to have the forms electronically filed in 5 days to the IRS, with very little paperwork required on my part. I was happily surprised by how effortless the process was. I will definitely be using ACA Compliance again.
We first met Glenn and Silvia at a human resource convention in Long Beach and couldn't have been more impressed with their professionalism and charisma. Since then, our firm has been utilizing ACA for several of their services and have been extremely pleased with the service provided. We would strongly recommend ACA Compliance!
I am a small business owner in Los Angeles. I recently used ACA Compliance Solution Services, Inc. for my ERISA Wrap and 1095 filings. In the past I had found the whole process to be exhausting but Silvia completely turned that around for me. She was very quick and thorough, I had my filings done within a week's time.
Great team and great service! I have known ACA Compliance for years and have always been impressed with their services. They have continually saved my clients hundreds of thousands of dollars in potential fines from the IRS. They truly can take a scary situation and turn it around.
Our broker referred us to ACA Compliance Solution Services, Inc. this year upon receiving a 226-J letter from the IRS. We were faced with a $700,000.00 fine and needed help ASAP!! Glenn and his team were able to work directly with the IRS on our company's behalf and reduce the fine to almost nothing from where it started. It wasn't easy but they were on our side the entire time and didn't give up. I can't say enough about how great their services are. I would say that it's a 10 out of 10 recommendation for sure.
I have been a client of ACA Compliance Solution Services, Inc. since 2015. I have always been extremely impressed with the way in which they conduct business. Glenn and Michael are very forthright and get the job done. Having worked with several other compliance companies prior to meeting this team, I can honestly say that ACA Compliance stands out from the rest in all the best ways possible.
Incredibly pleased with the work done. I hired ACA Compliance to process my company's mailings and they were completed very quickly and with much ease on my part. Overall great experience.
As a Denver based company, we were hesitant at first to work with an out of state compliance company to handle our IRS filings given the sensitivity of the information at hand. However, we were pleasantly surprised to find that their team was very willing and able to accommodate us via various platforms in lieu of face to face contact. In addition, they were more than obliging in working with our hectic work schedules.
We were referred to ACA Compliance by our broker to help us file our 1095 IRS forms. As a union based large employer group, our 1095 filings are always a bit tricky and we always seem to run into problems each year. We have a multi-level filing task between union, seasonal, full time, self-insured, and fully insured programs. As such, we commonly have problems with our filings. However, ACA Compliance impressed us by the fact that they were capable of successfully filing our 1094/1095 C's on the first try and in a very timely manner. Not only will we use ACA moving forward but we have also referred them to three other clients that needed their assistance as well and they were terrific in assisting them.
I was recommended to use ACA Compliance Solution Services by a friend who has used them previously. I gave them a call and spoke to Glenn who was able to give me a bundle discount. After that I had the pleasure of working with Silvia. She was very well educated and had no issues with the many questions, my curious self, had. She gave me a simple spreadsheet and an application to fill out. Once I did there was nothing else I had to do. She was able to get everything filed and distributed to the employees in no time. I truly hope I can do for you what my friend did to me and recommend this wonderful services, because they truly made this stressful time a breeze.
My corporation has been using ACA Compliance Solution Services, Inc. since 2015. I was first introduced to them when I inquired online for assistance in filing 1094 and 1095 C forms. It was my first time filing and I was completely lost as to how to proceed. However, Michael was extremely helpful in educating us on the guidelines and filing our forms. It was so easy on our part, barely any paperwork to fill out. Not to mention how quickly it was filed! We have continued to use ACA Compliance Solution Services, Inc. since and will definitely keep doing so.
I only started working with ACA Compliance Solution Services this year, but wow what a great experience it was. We came to them one week before our 1094/1095 filings were due and they told us that they could file on time for us. Due to it being a last minute filing there was a surcharge, but it was still cheaper than any quote I received anywhere else. When they say they can get it done, you can really believe that they will. I'm truly relived that this burden will no longer be on my back. We definitely will be using them for many years to come.
I started using ACA Compliance Solution Services at the end of 2015. I had the pleasure of working with Michael who was very helpful and professional. He made quick work of our companies ERISA wrap and within one week of purchase, we were handing it out to our employees. We found a real gem. I highly recommend ACA Compliance Solution Services.

These are great! I love them for feed and this year I'm trying them for waterers.
Linda M from Delaware
I am a breeder of Shetland sheep dogs, so with multiple dogs I need a water trough. I had been using a goat trough for quite a while but it was supposed to be hooked onto a fence not sit on a floor. After one too many times of the dogs tipping the trough over and flooding the kitchen, I found PortaTrough and replaced it. So far the dogs have found it to be good. Great size too.
Karen M from Washington
I purchased 4 of the Porta Trough 3's, I have deer, Canada geese, multiple species of ducks, ravens and other critters on my property. I wanted a safe clean way to feed and water and these troughs are wonderful. They are lite to move, yet very strong. They also clean up very easily. Thank you for a great product.
Elyse C from California
We have a large and 2 small troughs. They are easy to move, clean, and suit our sheep perfectly for water and feed.
Cynthia M from Texas
My ram lambs still try to stand in it. The short one is long enough for my 4 ram lambs to feed at once.

What Happened?
With the controversy still simmering over his Supreme Court confirmation, Brett Kavanaugh has hit the ground running — and became the first high court justice to hire all women as his law clerks.
Kavanaugh on Sunday started researching upcoming cases as the court begins the second week of its current term.
He huddled with his four female law clerks in chambers that had been occupied by Justice Samuel Alito, who moved to Justice Anthony Kennedy's old chambers following his retirement.
(NY Post)
Brett Kavanaugh may or may not have sexually assaulted a woman when he was a teenager which apparently does not affect the Senate's decision to make someone a Supreme Court Justice but no worries. Kavanaugh hired an all-woman staff so let's all forget about the rape stuff.
Nothing to see here. Just a 53-year old sociopath who has gotten exactly what he's wanted his entire life and just got the most important job that he knows he did not deserve. Perfect time for him to realize his past wrong-doings and completely change his relationship with women. I totally believe it.
Oh, THIS is why we keep giving rich entitled white men second, third and fourth chances. Because someday they are going to hire like, 5 women to essentially be his personal assistants. Who knows what these women's life what be like if Kavanaugh wasn't a Supreme Court Justice? What a hero.
How soon until we're reading a story about Brett Kavanaugh harassing these women? 24 hours? I wouldn't be surprised if he's giving them unwanted back massages right this second as he yells in their ear about his drinking habits.
Sexism has been fixed. Thank you, Brett.
Thanks for reading. Tweet to @TheLesterLee if you think Brett Kavanaugh is probably just a cool dude who just wants to drink some beers. Also, go ahead and throw Deadseriousness a Like on Facebook so that I can keep the lights on around here at HQ.

Testosterone Replacement in Hypogonadal Men With Type 2 Diabetes and/or Metabolic Syndrome (the TIMES2 Study)
OBJECTIVE This study evaluated the effects of testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) on insulin resistance, cardiovascular risk factors, and symptoms in hypogonadal men with type 2 diabetes and/or metabolic syndrome (MetS).
RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS The efficacy, safety, and tolerability of a novel transdermal 2% testosterone gel was evaluated over 12 months in 220 hypogonadal men with type 2 diabetes and/or MetS in a multicenter, prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study. The primary outcome was mean change from baseline in homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR). Secondary outcomes were measures of body composition, glycemic control, lipids, and sexual function. Efficacy results focused primarily on months 0−6 (phase 1; no changes in medication allowed). Medication changes were allowed in phase 2 (months 6−12).
RESULTS TRT reduced HOMA-IR in the overall population by 15.2% at 6 months (P = 0.018) and 16.4% at 12 months (P = 0.006). In type 2 diabetic patients, glycemic control was significantly better in the TRT group than the placebo group at month 9 (HbA1c: treatment difference, −0.446%; P = 0.035). Improvements in total and LDL cholesterol, lipoprotein a (Lpa), body composition, libido, and sexual function occurred in selected patient groups. There were no significant differences between groups in the frequencies of adverse events (AEs) or serious AEs. The majority of AEs (>95%) were mild or moderate.
CONCLUSIONS Over a 6-month period, transdermal TRT was associated with beneficial effects on insulin resistance, total and LDL-cholesterol, Lpa, and sexual health in hypogonadal men with type 2 diabetes and/or MetS.

We went home to Helen's house after catching up too late in the streets of San Roque. I told her to stop trying beer too much.
Her house was the closest so we proceeded. There was her mom sleeping, head on the dining table. I wasn't that sleepy so I headed for a coffee.
I waited for several hours… for several brewing hours and yet, the frappuccino I ordered wasn't even lukewarm.
I slept at the coffee shop comfort room.
