There's so much going on during your wedding day. Walking down the aisle, saying the vows, cutting the cake, dancing, drinking, and trying to divide your time up with due diligence between all of your guests and the groom. That leaves little time for primping and fixing or plastering in product, so when you get styled for the special day make sure to choose one that can commit to looking fabulous for the entire occasion. An updo is an elegant and traditional choice for brides-to-be, and we took one of our Beauty News readers, Donna Marino, down to the Robert Kree Salon in the West Village for a prenuptial practice run.

Her special day will be during the summer time near the water, which means maybe some serious heat and wind, so we also gathered some tips from our stylist for taking on these conditions as well as how to prepare your strands beforehand. Additionally, Donna is thinking of adding some hair accessories to her look, and luckily for us, we discovered Renee Rivera. The San Francisco-based designer's couture hair wear features handmade pieces that are elegant, comfortable, and easy to apply. The headband we chose was in a white, silk-wrapped style that had fresh water pearls attached to it. Sparking crystal-studded pins were also incorporated to the style to give it a sparkling touch as you'll see later on in the photos below.
Donna's hair is a dark shade of brown that has a natural wave to it and falls around shoulder-length.

To achieve the updo, stylist Erica Faunt separated the strands into different sections and back-combed them to bring in some volume. She applied a soft to medium spray continually throughout the process.

Once the sections were divvied up, they were pulled back and tucked into one another so that the large mass of locks that ends up remaining can then be gathered together and twisted into a sleek curl in the back. This produces a stunning and sophisticated side view for photo opps. A heavier hairspray then comes into play as the style is perfected and the bride is ready to head down the aisle. The total time for the style surprisingly took under an hour. If you desire extra sheen, Erica said you can always apply a shine and/or glitter spray to the strands (after the heavier lock-in-style spray) for extra elegance.

During the process, we asked Erica for some tips on preparing your strands for the special day. She suggested using a deep conditioner once a week at home for 20 minutes for a few months leading up to the special day. It's beneficial to trim your hair every six weeks as well for a few months before the wedding, maybe around 1/4 inch, so that the ends appear healthy. Glossing once a month will maintain shine, and taking supplements will keep strands supple, which is a good idea as well. Using a clear gloss a few days before the "big one" helps will keep your hair extra moisturized. If you want highlights, do them about a week before the wedding.

No matter what style you choose, don't shampoo your hair on your wedding day – the look will last longer if you shampoo strands the day before. Always, always, do a trial run with your stylist before the event and wear it around for a few hours that day so you know what to expect, and so that you can get comfortable with it. It is also preferable to do your hair before your makeup on the big day. The hair styling and makeup application processes run much smoother this way – then none of the products used will get in each other's way. If there are a few gray hairs hanging around that you want to get rid of, Erica also recommends putting in a semi-permanent color a few weeks prior to the wedding.
Since Donna's event falls in the summer and will be outdoors, using products with an SPF or ones that are made specifically for sun care (see our Keune article, also featured in our Hair Section this month!) is something to consider investing in as well to reduce dryness and UV ray damage. Last but not least – when the event is over and you've celebrated the success – to keep your hair feeling as good as you do, try a detox shampoo to help you take out all of the products you put in. That will ensure many happy days to come for your mane in addition to your marriage.

They offer numerous salon services, in addition to bridal, including hair cuts, highlights, blow-outs, perms, and more.

Last April does not seem like it was a year ago, and yet, here we are! I've been looking forward to Write_On since I sent off my final campaign letter on April 30. I have sent plenty of letters since then but there was a real air of excitement throughout the month of April as I sent off letters and anticipated replies in my mailbox. Because it's a simple joy to receive a handwritten letter in your mailbox. This simple joy is becoming less and less common and it's a shame to see a perfectly good simple joy slip into obscurity, especially when beautiful stamps, pretty paper products, and the postal service still exist.
I've made my list of folks to write. I've even included some of the people I admire and would love to send something to, like J.K. Rowling and Mr. Feeny (William Daniels). I mean, what better occasion to voice your appreciation to people so out of your league? I may as well shout into a void but, instead, I'm going to write a letter. See, Write_On even gives me confidence! Humble me before it becomes unwieldy.
April has 30 days and I have 20 of those days assigned to friends and family and minor/major celebrities. That means I have 10 letters I need to send and if you're interested, I'll send one to you. I love sending mail and finding bits of ephemera to include with my letters - personalized pieces I find that I know would make the recipient happy.
Here's the deal: if you'd like a letter, fill out the form below. If I get 10 people to submit, that's it - expect a letter some time in April! And if more than 10 people submit (who do I think I am, William Daniels?) then I will randomly draw ten names from the list and send good vibes out into the universe for everyone who submitted their info. Good deal?
I encourage you to participate in Write_On! Last year was so pleasant and I'm so excited to start this year. Buy some stamps and stationery and start. Good luck!

Toria este al treilea volum al seriei Cercurile mistice, scrisa de Nicoleta Tudor. I see a sustained drive to take our freedoms away; that's what bothers me. And I may care less what group of people need to take it; I would like Liberty. I feel not except somewhere on their family tree a person or individuals got here from Africa. Now, let's take a quick take a look at the malpractice charges allayed in opposition to the well being story of Nelisiwe, the mom of Fikani, struck by cerebral palsy because when he was born, he was not respiration, and needed to be resuscitated by the medical doctors.

Government can slash what it will pay for medicine and procedures, but this may scale back capital investment in research and development—the one area of well being care in America the place we unquestionably lead the world in the present day—because we nonetheless have a semblance of a free market system that rewards innovation. The truth that Elite Home Care can choose up the shopper saves me a variety of time in the morning.

A typo has cost the Japanese Mizuho Corporation some 27 billion yen. Losses may rise to 100 billion yen. Essentially, they wanted to sell one share for 610000 yen, but instead sold 610000 shares for 1 yen.
27 billion yen is around 128 million pound sterling at today's rates.
What makes the story particularly amusing is that they sold 42 times more shares than are actually in existence and "since the number of sold shares exceeded the number of existing shares, there is a possibility that Mizuho may not be able to hand shares over to the investors who bought them."
Boringly, it isn't quite that much of a discount as the Japanese market has rules which limit price fluctuations.

Thanks to my first trimester fruit-basket-upset of hormones, I rarely felt like myself for the first four months of this pregnancy.
I've had depression before, but never while pregnant. Chronic nausea and cold winter and bouts of the flu likely didn't help. Though I have taken anti-depressants before, they're not considered safe during the first trimester of pregnancy.
I was operating out of weakness: unable to muster energy to do the usual cooking and playing and tidying for my family. Unable to write or find the desire to socially share. Unable to leave our four walls and pretend I was fine. The culturally appropriate question to ask a pregnant woman is, "How have you been feeling?"
But I can't say that the culturally appropriate answer is, "Depressed."

Yerbury has long been known for it's Music making. Children compose and perform collaborative pieces regularly…
There are many times each week when the walls literally reverberate to the sound of music. We have a singing assembly for each Key Stage every week and our Music lessons are delivered by Ben Glasstone, our specialist music teacher. Ben also supports class assemblies, which often feature whole class compositions as well as more well known popular songs. Ben is an incredibly talented composer and he recently used these skills to support our current Year 6 pupils in writing 'The Yerbury Song'. Ben leads the school band and over the course of the year there is a Year 4 choir who perform at Christmas, a Year 5 choir who take part in Islington 'Pure Voices' and the Year 6 choir who perform in their end of year performance. In addition to this Liz Read, our Deputy Headteacher, leads a lunchtime choir for Years 3-6 and a storytime Year 1 and 2 choir.
All children in Year 3 learn the recorder with Liz and children in Year 4 learn the Ukulele with Ben. Some children in Years 3, 4, 5 and 6 have the opportunity to learn either the trumpet or trombone with our brass teacher, Alan. Alan also leads the Yerbury brass band.
We also have an adult choir for members of staff, parents and members of our local community. The choir rehearse on a Monday evening and recently performed 'Zimbe' alongside the Tuesday lunchtime choir.
Liz Read is our Music leader and there are many plans afoot to build on the already brilliant music making at Yerbury.

Matrimony Games
A Tropical Temptations Novella
By Samanthe Beck
Only fools rush in, Gwennie…
Mama had warned her. More than once, actually, but had she heeded the warnings? No. Maybe after last year's fiasco she'd been too ready to rush. Ready for lightning, and fireworks, and damn-this-feels-right. Where had tuning out her mother's words of caution gotten her? On the deck of an over-water bungalow in Paradise Bay, working on her tan. Alone.
Through the filter of dark sunglasses, she stared at her left hand. A platinum band should have gleamed there along with a sparkling solitaire, but only a pale strip of skin decorated an otherwise naked finger.
The sight riled her temper, and worse, put a lump in her throat, so she shifted her gaze across the expanse of turquoise lagoon—not a normal view for a horse trainer from Kentucky—to the empty decks of two bungalows in the distance. The big one at the end was unoccupied as far as she could tell from her second day in residence at this five-star destination Great Escapes magazine had dubbed World's Most Romantic Honeymoon Destination. The other bungalow hosted Lana and Yvette, two models from Paris enjoying a little downtime after a swimsuit shoot. She'd met them last night at the bar. They'd listened to the story of her runaway groom, applied copious amounts of red wine to her shattered heart, and walked her back to her…ha...honeymoon suite. The evening got a little blurry from there, but in a moment of weakness she'd handed over her phone, stripped down to her bikini bottoms, and posed like a centerfold on the oversized bed while Lana art-directed and Yvette took pictures designed to, "Make zee motherfucker plein de regrets."
She'd stayed strong since he'd pulled his morning-of-the-wedding disappearing act. Hadn't called, texted. Nothing. But seconds after waking at dawn with a staggering hangover, she'd checked her phone and realized she'd texted a photo to him last night, along with the message, "Looks like there's no U in paradise."
The stunt felt pathetic and desperate in the sober light of day. A warm breeze blew a long strand of hair across her face. She shook it back and adjusted her sunglasses. She didn't know where the hell he was, or if he'd even gotten the stupid text. She didn't really know a damn thing.
Her mother's concerned voice echoed in her mind. He's easy on the eyes, I'll grant you, but what do you really know about the man? His background has holes big enough to drive a horse trailer through. Honey, please. Slow down a little. I'm not saying he's trouble, but even I can tell you he's not a handyman.
Oh, but he'd been handy. Very handy. Two months ago when she'd closed escrow on the fixer just a block off the town square and asked her realtor to recommend someone for carpentry and repairs he'd immediately suggested his friend Ethan. The endorsement had been unqualified.
He's new in town—can't remember where from—but he did work on my folk's place and, trust me, there's nothing he can't fix.
True enough. The tall, dark, monument to masculinity with hard-etched muscles and sharpest gray eyes she'd ever seen had been Mr. Fixit. Low water pressure? Resolved. Sticking front door? Unstuck. Faulty wiring? Fixed. His cool self-containment coupled with all the coiled power in his impressive frame might have intimidated some people, but she had experience dealing with big, silent animals.
She'd offered him a beer at the end of each day and slowly chipped away at his air of mystery. Every once in a while he'd given up a detail or two. He'd enlisted at eighteen. The Navy had worked out so well he'd served a stint in the SEALs. The last few years he'd spent doing odd jobs for his uncle, but had trained a replacement and was free and clear unless a loose end shook out that only he could tie off. She'd only half-jokingly asked if "uncle" was code for the mob, the military or the government. He'd treated her to a smile that carved an irresistible groove beside his mouth, and informed her he wasn't a criminal, but if told her anything more, he'd have to kill her. Funny man.
Usually he evaded her questions and turned the conversation to her. Why horses? She loved their intelligence, their tremendous strength and gentle souls. Why no husband or boyfriend? Because ten months ago her high-school sweetheart had left her at the altar and run off to Houston to find himself. Now he co-owned a cowboy bar with his new love, Ron. And no, she'd never suspected. The story usually provoked pitying stares, but when he'd trained those seen-everything eyes on her, she'd felt heat. Sparks. Chemistry crackling just below the surface of their civilized conversations. Most of the time he'd managed to wring more out of her than she ever got from him, which should have bothered the crap out of her, but instead of annoyed, it had left her challenged…and ridiculously turned on.
Two weeks of him driving nails and tightening screws had manhandled her little house into shape—and her into a complicated state of need. And then, God help her, he'd fixed that too. Seconds after stepping off her porch at the end of a drizzly Saturday afternoon, he'd stopped cold, turned, and strode back toward her with a fierce intention that promised the real storm was about to begin. He'd kicked the door shut behind him without putting a hitch in his forward momentum.
Even now her backside tingled with the phantom imprint of calloused, capable hands hauling her against him. Her ears vibrated with the sound of his voice.
Gwendolyn, you've got five seconds to slap my face or wrap those pretty legs around me and ride us home.
In that moment she'd known the truth. She'd fallen for a man with a past he didn't discuss, a way with tools, and the unshakeable look of certainty on his face.
She'd wrapped her legs around his waist, and ridden him like a wild stallion. He'd proceeded to test the endurance of the sheetrock, the floorboards, and every cell in her body. By the time he'd had her bent over the foot rail of her old iron bed, panting and sweating her way toward her fourth orgasm, she'd only been capable of nodding when he'd asked her to marry him. Was two months was long enough for her to plan whatever kind of wedding she wanted? She'd managed to moan something affirmative in between the impacts of his body slamming into hers.
In truth, she hadn't much cared about a wedding, or the institution of marriage, given her first disastrous attempt at tying the knot. Commitment mattered to her, not a piece of paper or a ceremony, but the next day he'd slipped the blasted diamond on her finger, bit the pad of her thumb hard enough to scramble her brain, and told her with steady resolve that it mattered to him.
Except it hadn't.
The morning of the wedding she'd woken before dawn, alone in the bed she'd shared with him for two perfect months. His soap-and-leather scent had lingered on the bedding, but something about the coolness of the sheets had quickened her pulse. As the stillness of the room, hell, the entire house, had registered, she'd seen the note.
A loose end shook out and I need two days to tie it off. Forty-eight hours. I promise I'll make it worth the wait.
Trust me,
Those cryptic lines had told her nothing and everything at once. At least her ex had mustered up the balls to face her, not sneak off in the dead of night and leave a note engineering himself a forty-eight hour head start. With flashbacks of whispers behind palms and sympathetic stares from everyone in town whirling through her mind, she'd flushed her engagement ring down the toilet, grabbed her passport and the honeymoon itinerary he kept tucked in his nightstand, and headed to the airport.
Disgusted to find her thoughts spinning on the same useless cycle, she hoisted herself out of the chaise and went inside for a magazine…book…anything to distract her from the reality of her situation.
Trust was officially dead.
Never piss off southern woman…
Great advice, coming from a man who'd left him little choice. Ethan had no problem telling a five-star general, "I'm not on the roster anymore." He could say, "Find someone else," to the Undersecretary of State, but he couldn't say no to a guy who'd saved his ass in a shithole in Africa three years ago.
He might indeed be off the roster, and only a handful of days from officially retired from the game, but he had a highly specialized skillset and he owed one last favor—the kind Uncle Sam preferred to deny all knowledge of should things go sideways. The kind of favor you didn't spell out in any detail to your fiancée unless you wanted to righteously fuck up your life. And hers.
Things hadn't gone sideways, thank Christ, unless one counted the fact that his fiancée had gone on the honeymoon without him, and apparently found someone else to keep her company.
He stalked into the bedroom of the deluxe bungalow commandeered on his behalf thanks to calling in a few favors, and chucked his duffel at a chair. Then he pulled his phone out of the pocket of the jeans he felt like he'd been traveling in for days.
The picture of her sprawled on the bed stared back at him from the screen. Granted, he owed her a grovel of epic proportions, and he was fully prepared to deliver, but after they got that out of the way she was going to pay for the picture. For wasting their time and the privilege of her body on someone just to demonstrate what he knew going in: she could have any guy she wanted. How many orgasms would it take to pry an apology out of her? Didn't matter. She'd get every last one of them, until she screamed for forgiveness and promised him forever.
Jealousy made a terrible travel companion, but a constant one. From the moment he'd checked his messages last night at the airbase in Paraguay and discovered he needed to jump a flight to Paradise Bay instead of Covington International, the green-eyed bastard had kept him in its grip. His gut still churned every time he stared at the picture. Beautiful as a fucking goddess with her long, dark hair tossed back from her heart-shaped face, the slim limbs and dangerous curves of her all but naked body draped over the pillows. A completely bare ring finger buddied up to the raised middle finger saluting the camera. Lash-heavy eyelids veiled her big blue irises, and a lopsided smile pulled at one corner of the softest lips he'd ever had the pleasure of slipping his cock between. Both indicated she'd been less than sober when she'd posed for the shot.
The text required less analysis—it told him exactly what she thought of him. The only things he didn't know? Who had snapped the picture, and how long it would take to track the asshole down and kill him.
Now seemed like a good time to find out. He pulled off his clothes and dragged on the swim trunks he'd bought at the resort gift shop on his way in. Under different circumstances he might have spared a moment to appreciate the light wind stirring heavy air and the white clouds stacked along a dancing horizon where waves broke on the reef. Right now, however, he focused his attention on the opposite side of the lagoon, identified her bungalow—their bungalow—and took in the pertinent details. Nobody occupied the deck, but a towel covered one of the lounge chairs and a clutter of stuff on the side table indicated his target remained in the vicinity. Was she alone, or were things about to get momentarily awkward? Despite sleeping in turbulent, thirty-minute jags over the last three days, he swam the distance in record time.
A ladder extended from the lagoon to the bungalow. A guy with his training knew how to move soundlessly, and he did so now, ascending to the deck and pausing there to take stock. A nearly empty bottle of water sat on the side table. One water. An edge of the towel fluttered in the breeze, but the part lying over the chaise still bore the damp imprint from a wet body. One body.
While he did the math on that, a movement inside the little structure caught his eye. A second later she walked out wearing tiny black bikini bottoms, sunglasses, and nothing else. This time he did spare a split second on the view—her strong, slender, horse trainer's legs, smooth, newly tanned skin, perfect tits swaying slightly as she moved.
"Hello Gwendolyn."
The magazine she carried hit the floor. Her hand flew to her chest and her mouth dropped open on a strangled sound. It snapped shut just as quickly, and firmed into an impassive line, but he could see the pulse pounding at the base of her throat. She slowly folded her arms—not to hide anything, he knew, but in an effort to fortify her don't-fuck-with-me expression.
"What the hell are you doing here?"
He took a step closer. "You know why I'm here. You've got five seconds to slap my face or wrap those pretty legs around me and ride us home."
She could do both, as it turned out, in under three. Her palm cracked across his cheek an instant before she used his calves for stirrups and saddled up. Heels dug into his ass hard enough to leave bruises. Fingers tangled in his hair, pulling until his scalp sang.
Risking another slap, or a head-butt, or a lacerated lip, he trapped her jaw in his hand and brought his mouth down on hers. The force parted her lips—or maybe she parted them of her own accord. Either way, he dragged his tongue through her mouth, desperate to flood her with his taste, dominate her senses, and obliterate any possible traces of another man's kiss. Her tight nipples drilled into his chest. Had she pressed them against some other guy last night? He sank his free hand down the back of her bikini and palmed tight curves that belonged to him. His. She'd damn well know it by the time he finished this conversation.
A moan reached his ears. He pulled his mouth away and let her breath.
"You can kiss my ass," she panted.
He whipped her around until she faced the water, took a fistful of her bikini, and ripped it off. "I've got other plans for this ass." He gave it a quick, satisfying smack. "Mine," he couldn't stop himself from adding. Then he braced her hands on the deck rail and menaced her ear with his teeth. "All of this is mine, and you let someone else have what belongs to me." He squeezed her tits while she writhed between him and the rail.
"You didn't act like a man who wanted it," she shot back, and arched into his touch, but he heard the hurt in her voice.
"Grab that rail tight, Gwendolyn, and I'll show you how wrong you are." The words came out like an order. He silently prayed she'd obey.
"Somebody could see us." Still, she planted her feet, firmed her hold on the rail, and bent forward a bit. Sable waves curtained her face and left the nape of her neck exposed. The pose projected an element of submission, but he knew better. Proud Gwendolyn hadn't boarded a plane and flown to Paradise Bay just to make him chase her. She might offer him her body, but her heart? She'd guard that prize until he convinced her to trust him with it again.
He wasn't above using one to attain the other. He had a sneaking suspicion that's how he'd gotten her in the first place. With a tear of Velcro, his trunks hit the deck. He kicked out of them and wrapped his fist around his throbbing cock.
"I want people to see." So saying, he pushed in, appreciating her cry of gratitude like a drowning man appreciates oxygen. He prepared to hold at the halfway point to give her a chance to adjust to him. Three seconds of furious kissing and a slap on the ass didn't constitute foreplay in his book, and he needed her wet and ready before he gave her the kind of frustrated, jealous-assed fucking he had in him now.
But she didn't want his caution. Didn't need it, apparently, because she rocked her hips back and hastened the connection. He slid home like she'd been ready to receive him for three long days. Every ounce of blood in his body rushed toward her, surging with an urgency that left him lightheaded. He took hold of her hips and blinked his world back into focus.
"I want everyone to see," he reiterated, and started moving. Her head came up, hair tumbling down her back as she lifted onto her toes to meet each thrust. "I want everyone to see exactly where you belong."
To that end, he took hold of her wrists and guided her hands back until she could latch them behind his neck. Elbows to the sky, head resting on his shoulder, she moved with him. If anybody happened to look out from another bungalow, they'd get a damn fine view.
He wrapped an arm around her waist and quickened his pace, but for some reason his goal of showing her how wrong she was suddenly took a back seat to his sense of betrayal. He'd expected anger—she deserved to be angry with him—but he hadn't expected her to cut and run, or exorcise her fury in the arms of another man. "I should be here, right now, fucking my wife, but instead I'm fucking a woman who won't even wear my ring. My bride-to-be took off and spent last night teaching me I'm replaceable." He thrust harder, feeling his muscles burn. "Do you know what that does to me?"
"You left. That's all I know. Oh God…"
He dropped his hand between her legs and strummed the swollen little trigger practically twitching to be pumped. With his other hand he pushed her elbow higher, to its full extension, stretching her and forcing her onto her tiptoes. Then he switched his pace to slow, shallow stirs. "I asked you to trust me. I told you to wait. You did neither, which means I've failed to demonstrate I'm worthy of your trust or patience. Now we're both paying for our mistakes. Who took the damn picture?"
"Yvette, and…sweet Jesus, Ethan, please…"
"And who?"
"Yvette and Lana." The confession came out in a rush. She released his neck and tossed a hand out, gesturing across the lagoon.
Through a haze of need and possessiveness he looked toward the bungalow in the distance. The one he didn't occupy. Lana and Yvette. A knot in his gut loosened for the first time since he'd gotten the text. Her admission granted him considerable, but not complete, relief.
"Nobody touched this but me?" He trapped her clit between his thumb and forefinger and pinched gently.
"Nobody, I swear. Not a soul. Please, do it…"
He pinched again, very lightly, even though he knew she wanted more. Eight incredible weeks spent learning to play her body like a virtuoso didn't fade in three days. He had her filled, stretched, and squirming on his cock, but she couldn't come like this. Her neglected clit required the kind of direct attention she simply couldn't get from this position—not without some help. She needed him to squeeze the orgasm out of her.
"Who touches this?"
"You. Only you."
Damn right. He gave her what she craved, biting her shoulder and holding firm while she bucked and jerked and struggled for release. The feel of her clenching around him nearly pulled him in too, but he withstood the temptation to go over with her. Too soon.
When the last spasm subsided, he pulled out, steeling himself against her whimper at the sudden abandonment. Then he turned her around and hitched her up onto the railing. Her forehead rested against his throat and her hands clung to his shoulders. Although parts of him still ached like a wound, satisfaction settled in his chest. Being needed by Gwendolyn always had that effect on him, even if her primary use for him at the moment might be keeping her upright.
The soft gusts of breath fanning his collarbone eventually slowed. Her spine stiffened. The small, defensive gesture warned him the orgasm-induced wave of contentment had receded, leaving her temper exposed like a rocky shoreline.
"You came all this way to stake a claim?" she asked, her voice muffled against his skin. "What about my claim, Ethan?"
"You own me."
Her head snapped up. "Prove it," she challenged, and reached for his cock. "Show me I own this."
"Uh-uh." He intercepted her hand and brought it back to his chest so she could feel his heart pounding for her. "I haven't earned mine yet. I don't earn it until you tell me why?"
"Why what? Be specific, because my list of whys is pretty damn long at this point."
Jesus, she was stubborn. Why you don't know I'd never leave you? he wanted to shout, but settled for a comparatively calm, "Why you played this game."
She stayed silent for so long he thought she intended to stonewall. Finally she stared somewhere over his shoulder and said, "I wanted to make you regret what you did."
"Baby, I regretted it before I even walked out the door. I agreed to the wedding date, and then I couldn't keep my word. I felt like a shit, but when it comes to certain situations, my feelings don't factor."
Guarded eyes continued to avoid his. "You left without a word. I didn't know where you were. I didn't know if you'd come back…"
"Yes you did." He moved his hand to the back of her head and sank his fingers in her hair. "I told you I'd be back in two days."
"And I'm supposed to sit tight and think happy thoughts based on a note?"
"You're supposed to trust me." He said the words quietly. Firmly.
"Are you insane? You took off mere hours before our wedding, and I'm the one with trust issues?" She pushed at his shoulder. "No. You know what? Cleary I'm the insane one." Panic crept into her voice. "What kind of a man disappears in the middle of the night and the only explanation he can give is he had to tie off a loose end?"
He tightened his hold on her head and waited until she looked at him. "Gwendolyn, we talked about this. I told you what I could. You're a smart person. You know the score. There's nothing I could have said about where I was going and what I was doing that I didn't put in the note."
"Great." Her laugh held no humor. "You are some kind of criminal."
The question hurt—her doubt hurt—but he'd give her any reassurance she needed. "No. I told you I wasn't, and I've never lied to you." He pulled her face closer. "I will never lie to you."
The vow put a hitch in her breath, and something hungry in her wide eyes. Need surged through his nervous system like a thousand volts from a live wire, scorching a brutal path all the way to his balls. "Give me the same honesty. Why didn't you wait like I asked?"
"You didn't ask. There wasn't a single question mark in that note."
Never piss off a southern woman…
He refused to take the bait and get sidetracked over semantics. "Why. Didn't. You. Wait."
Her chin trembled. Oh shit. Desperation shoved his "Tell me why" agenda aside. He'd never seen her cry, and he wanted to keep it that way.
"Don't. I mean it. I can handle your anger. I can overcome distrust, but I can't take your tears."
"I c-can't h-help it…"
He could—or wreck himself trying. He grabbed his cock and angled it to her like an offering. "Shhh, baby. Don't cry. Let me make you happy. I swear to God I will. You want to see what need looks like? I'll show you. Any way you want."
"Come inside me." She opened her thighs wide. "Lose control. Surrender it. Need me so much you can't help yourself. That's what I want."
"Jesus, I need you so much it hurts." He eased in. Her cheeks turned pink, her eyelids fluttered, and they both groaned a little from the pain. "I wake up every morning wanting you. I fall asleep each night wanting you. Every time I have you only makes me want you more. I'll die wanting you." He rested his forehead against hers and started to give her everything he had with long, deep strokes.
Blue eyes stared into his soul. "I was afraid you weren't coming back."
"Forty-eight hours. I was very clear." He pulled her off the rail and into his arms. Holding her closer. Supporting her weight. His fingers dug into her ass cheeks as he worked her up and down his shaft. He deliberately punctuated the ride with quick, clit-grinding thrusts.
"M-maybe you just said that because you wanted to get away?" The question came out in unsteady pants as he bounced her faster. "Maybe you realized you couldn't go through with it, and you—."
"You thought I was like that other guy? Take off and find myself?" A familiar burn seeped into his muscles, tightening his calves and thighs before concentrating in his groin. "Gwendolyn, I found myself the minute I set eyes on you. I was home the second I touched you."
"Maybe you'd want to come back, but something would happen, and…and you'd become one of those loose ends someone needed to tie off?"
A lone tear rolled down her cheek, but he didn't get a chance to beg her to stop, because she cupped his face and kissed him like she wanted to consume him, and, fuck, he wasn't going to last much longer.
"Didn't happen," he ground out when she relinquished his mouth for air. "I'm here. I'm not leaving again. Let go of that worry."
"It's not that easy, Ethan."
He lifted her until only his tip remained lodged in her heat. "Let go," he whispered, and then dropped her down. Hard. Once…twice…three times in rapid succession.
Her head fell back, and her cry filled the air around them as she shattered.
And that was it for him. He managed to brace her against the rail as he delivered the surrender she'd demanded. His vision dimmed. Sound ceased except his pulse pounding in his ears, and then he came like a freight train. Whistles screamed, rails thundered, tracks clapped as the climax rolled through him. It took a moment or two before the chaos settled, and then he shook his head because the whistling and clapping lingered like an echo.
Gwendolyn's husky voice cut through the noise. "You got your wish. We have an audience."
He raised his head just enough to look in the direction of the sound. Two tanned figures loitered on the deck of the bungalow across the lagoon, giving them a standing ovation. "Yvette and Lana?"
"Mmm-hmm. I think they forgive you for being two days late for your honeymoon."
"Yeah, well…" He gathered her into his arms, turned, and carried her into the bungalow. "I really only care if you forgive me."
"I do, provided"—she narrowed her eyes at him—"it's never going to happen again."
He dropped her on the big, white bed, and sank down on top of her. "Never. I tied off my last loose end. I'm done. I'm out."
She fiddled with his hair, brushing it back from his forehead. He caught her hand and used his thumb to separate her ring finger from the others. "If I promise, will you put the ring back on?"
To his surprise, her chin quivered again. "I promise anyway," he said quickly.
"No, I believe you. It's just…I…um…I was so mad when you left I flushed it down the toilet. Oh God." She sniffled. "I flushed my ring. It's gone."
He pulled her to him and kissed her. By the time he let her go, she wasn't sniffling anymore. "It's not gone. A toilet is like a sink. There's a trap."
"Yep." He kissed her again, and then settled against the pillow, and shifted his shoulder to scoot her head into a comfortable position on his chest. "It's a little harder to get to, but it can be done."
She smiled up at him. "Luckily, I know a handyman."
"I guess you better keep him around."
"I better keep him forever."

Features exclusive access to the Cline estate, rare performances and new interviews with Reba McEntire, LeAnn Rimes, Kacey Musgraves, Wanda Jackson, Beverly D'Angelo and others, with narration by Rosanne Cash
Born Virginia Patterson Hensley in Winchester, Virginia, Patsy Cline (September 8, 1932-March 5, 1963) defined modern country music by using her singular talent and heart‐wrenching emotional depth to break down barriers of gender, class and genre. In her music and her life, she set a standard of authenticity towards which artists still strive. After years of hard work to overcome industry gender biases and her own personal hardships and professional missteps, she achieved success, only to have it punctured by uncanny premonitions and her untimely death at age 30. The new documentary Patsy Cline: American Masters premieres nationwide beginning March 4 on PBS (check local listings) during Women's History Month as part of the 31st season of THIRTEEN's American Masters series. 2017 marks the 85thanniversary of Cline's birth.

Report: iOS and Android enjoy similar loyalty rates/
Research from Consumer Intelligence Research Partners (CIRP) shows that the past two years, Google Android and Apple iOS retained U.S. users at approximately the same rate. In activating a new phone, 82% of Android users and 78% of iOS users remained with their previous operating system.
"The dynamic between Apple iOS and Google Android is not well-understood," says Josh Lowitz, partner and co-founder of CIRP. "Even the basic loyalty rate, the measure of how each operating system retains its own users, is not widely known. Conventional wisdom says the Apple 'ecosystem' promotes loyalty, while Android readily gives up users to iOS. Our analysis has a more nuanced view on operating system selection, and indicates Android user loyalty has caught up and even exceeds that of iOS."
CIRP also compared the two four-quarter periods in the sample, July 2013-June 2014 and July 2014-June 2015/. The Android customer retention rate increased noticeably, from 77% of customers purchasing new phones in the 2013-2014 period to 86% in the 2014-2015 period. The iOS customer retention rate remained relatively constant at 79% in the earlier period and 78% in the later period.
When it comes to mobile phone customers that switched mobile carriers, Android users remained with Android almost as frequently as those who continued with their existing carriers. Seventy-nine percent of Android carrier switchers remained with Android, compared to 82% overall. iOS users who switched carriers were much more likely to move from iOS to Android. The iOS retention rate for users that switched carriers was 51%, compared to 78% overall.
"The reasons why users select Android or iOS, and when and how users switch between them, are unclear," says Mike Levin, partner and co-founder of CIRP. "Unlike almost every other product in technology, users cannot easily articulate why they like one or another operating system. One variable that seems to affect operating system switching behavior is mobile carrier switching. The time a user switches mobile carriers also is a logical time to switch operating systems. Our analysis suggests that switching mobile carriers correlates with iOS users switching to Android, but not Android users to switching to iOS."
Among specific carriers, switching to AT&T and Verizon appears to lead customers to switch from Android to iOS, according to CIR. Conversely, switching to Sprint and T-Mobile appears associated with a switch from iOS to Android.

In the coming months, potential NFL rookies will get put under a microscope for what they do on and off the field. Alabama's Kenyan Drake had a spectacular kickoff return for a touchdown in the National Championship Game that will always be remembered. Unfortunately, that play doesn't tell the entire story about the back. He has some major injury and character concerns to overcome. I reviewed his games against Wisconsin, Florida (2014 and 2015), Michigan State, Clemson, Ole Miss (2013), and the Senior Bowl (televised practices and game) to get a better handle on what he brings to the next level.
RB-Kenyan Drake, Alabama 6′ 210 lbs.
Cons: The first question that needs to be asked for any player is "what can he do for your football team?" Drake definitely has change of pace runner skills. This simply means the runner struggles to run between the tackles and is more effective in space. The space usually needs to be created for him like in the return game or type of formation (lined up beside the quarterback in shotgun or split out wide). The back runs too high (not sinking his hips), doesn't pick up his feet (leaves him open to ankle tackles), and gets too fast too quickly (can't always control his direction to make adjustments to the defenders). Drake has issues securing the pigskin, anchoring for pass blocking (probably the worst back in drills in Mobile), and rarely runs behind his pads. Then you review his injury issues: he broke a leg (which are quite skinny) and an arm during his college career. The runner got suspended multiple times for conduct detrimental towards the team and trying to move his vehicle that was near a crime scene.
Pros: Drake is a threat to take the rock to the house on any play he touches the ball: a kickoff, punt, reverse, jet sweep, counter, or even wheel route. He has soft hands, uses amazing lateral agility (might be faster side to side than north and south), and can get to a third gear in the open field. This athlete can string together a jump cut with a spin then start and stop on a dime, leaving defenders wondering what happened. As a receiver, he gets into the flat from the backfield within a count of a thousand one (explosion) or the runner can line up in the slot or on the line in five wide sets while getting off the line of scrimmage effortlessly. His acceleration allows him to be at full speed within two steps. Drake runs clean routes, tracks the ball well in the air and in stride. When he acts as a returner, his vision allows him to read blocks well, find the cutback lanes, and use his burst to eat up yards in a hurry.
Overview: The former Crimson Tide member has a lot of risk due to injury and character concerns, along with his unconventional skill set for a running back. These issues cause me to hover Drake close to my top ten rookie running back rankings (I play in PPR leagues that usually reward return yardage), but his landing spot will have a lot to do with his final ranking. As far as comparisons, I view Kenyan Drake similar to Tampa Bay's Charles Sims.

Antrim and Newtownabbey Borough Council is to write to the Head of the Judiciary in Northern Ireland calling for a review of the sentence handed down to a woman convicted of horrific animal cruelty.
The local authority has taken the step in response to a public outcry over the "disgusting leniency" afforded Aleisha McLaverty, who abandoned a Labrador-type dog in an empty flat and allowed it to starve to death.
At Antrim Magistrates Court earlier this month, the 23-year-old was given a two month custodial sentence, suspended for two years, and disqualified from keeping animals for five years - a sentence local MLA Trevor Clarke branded "a slap on the wrist".
The council, which brought the prosecution against the former Antrim resident, and several elected representatives, have received numerous complaints from members of the public about the sentence handed down by the judge.
In response to the public outrage surrounding the harrowing case, DUP Councillor Nigel Kells brought forward a proposal that the council write to the Public Prosecution Service asking for a review of the sentence.
At last Monday night's meeting of full council, he described Aleisha McLaverty's punishment as "completely inadequate" and said that if a review isn't possible, the council must make it clear that it is not happy with the sentence handed down.
Councillor Neil Kelly said that while "there is no appeal mechanism in these cases", he has already written to the Lord Chief Justice asking for a review of the sentencing guidelines for animal cruelty cases in general and has been urging others to do the same.
The Alliance man added that "it is time judges handed out appropriate sentences".
Councillor Jim Montgomery said the outcome of the McLaverty case had sparked "disgust and anger", and he claimed that it "highlights that animal cruelty is not taken seriously by the law".
Also calling for a change in the sentencing guidelines, Alderman Mark Cosgrove stressed: "Our citizens will not accept the disgusting leniency shown in this case."
Cllr. Kells' proposal also received support from Councillors Paul Michael and Mervyn Rea, who said: "The more we can highlight it, the more the judicial service will have to take note."
Council chief executive Jacqui Dixon said that officers would look into the issue to clarify where responsibility for sentencing lies, but suggested that the council write to the Attorney General, the Lord Chief Justice and the Public Prosecution Service about the matter.
Members agreed that the council write to the relevant authorities calling for a review of the sentence handed down in the McLaverty case, and a review of the sentencing guidelines in animal cruelty cases in general.
The local authority will also call on the judiciary to hand out stiffer sentences to those convicted of animal cruelty.

KEFLAVIK, Iceland — With concerns rising about Russia's intervention in Ukraine, President Obama will use a visit to neighboring Estonia on Wednesday to reassure fretful allies that the United States and Europe are serious about defending them from a newly aggressive Russia.
Just over a year after Mr. Obama told Baltic leaders at the White House that NATO's commitment to their security was "rock-solid," his visit to Estonia is an effort to reinforce that message, while telegraphing to President Vladimir V. Putin of Russia that he should refrain from further meddling in the region.
On the eve of a NATO summit meeting in Wales where members are expected to endorse a rapid-reaction force capable of deploying quickly to Eastern Europe — their most concrete response yet to Russia's stealth military intervention in Ukraine — Mr. Obama is seeking to solidify assurances to the alliance's new front line, including nations with large Russian-speaking populations, that no member is too small to be protected.
The president said last week that his stop in Estonia was intended "to let the Estonians know that we mean what we say with respect to our treaty obligations." It will include a meeting with President Toomas Hendrik Ilves, who has been outspoken about calling for a firmer Western response to Mr. Putin, as well as Latvia's president, Andris Berzins, and the president of Lithuania, Dalia Grybauskaite.
Mr. Obama "wants to send the signal that these three Baltic states are as central and important to the way we look at European security and defense as any other NATO member, that there's no difference between Estonia or Great Britain when it comes to the security of Estonia or Great Britain," said Ivo H. Daalder, a former ambassador to NATO who is now the head of the Chicago Council on Global Affairs.
In sessions with the Baltic presidents, a speech to students, young professionals and civil society and political leaders, and a visit to American and Estonian troops here, Mr. Obama will also demonstrate to the world, and Russia in particular, that the former Soviet republics are wrapped securely within NATO's protective embrace.
"The other message that's being sent is to Vladimir Putin, to say, 'Don't even think about it, because these guys are part of this alliance.' " Mr. Daalder said.
Taavi Roivas, the Estonian prime minister, with whom Mr. Obama will meet on Wednesday, said the American president's very presence — far afield from the Wales summit meeting, which was the original purpose of his European trip — would be an important signal in light of Russia's recent moves.
"I'm definitely confident that President Obama brings a clear message on the American side," Mr. Roivas said in an interview. "It's really important for us that he comes, so others see the U.S. commitment in the region."
Even before this week's expected agreement on a rapid-response force, Mr. Roivas said NATO was moving in the "right direction," bringing more air policing over the Baltics and more exercises in Estonia.
"I have rock-solid confidence in NATO's Article 5," he said, referring to the principle of collective defense that undergirds the alliance.
At the same time, the trip is a chance for Mr. Obama to showcase the kind of financial commitment he is seeking from other NATO members as the alliance grapples with an eroded defense capability because of shrinking military budgets. The United States is responsible for 75 percent of NATO military spending, and only a handful of European countries meet the alliance's target of having military budgets of 2 percent of gross domestic product. Estonia is the only one of the Baltic States to meet that goal.
Mr. Obama's visit underscores the degree to which Russia's annexation of Crimea and invasion of Ukraine have "brought us closer together," said R. Nicholas Burns, a former American ambassador to NATO and State Department official during George W. Bush's administration, who now teaches international relations at the Harvard Kennedy School.
The United States quickly recognized the Baltic States' independence in 1991, even before the collapse of the Soviet Union, and has had strong ties with them for three decades.
"We always kept faith with them, and they have always remembered that it was the U.S. that stood up for them," Mr. Burns said. "The American president has huge credibility in Tallinn and in Riga, and it's a great opportunity for President Obama to, in the most clear way, say that when we took you in in 2002, we meant it, and now that there's a crisis, I'm here." Tallinn is the capital of Estonia, and Riga the capital of Latvia.
But leaders in the Baltic States and elsewhere in Europe are also looking to Mr. Obama and to NATO for concrete assurances that the commitment to defending them will be lasting, and are eager to hear a longer-term strategy toward Russia to address the challenges it is posing to the postwar order.
"They're concerned this is temporary, that we have so many things going on — we're already being pulled away from Ukraine because of Iraq and Syria, can they count on our commitment and our engagement for the long term?" said Heather A. Conley, a State Department official under Mr. Bush who now directs the Europe Program at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, a research organization in Washington.
"A speech will get you a little bit," Ms. Conley added, "but it's the physical, it's the U.S. soldier that's in Estonia, it's the F-16 that's flying over Baltic air space, it's the Marine presence, that really will make the difference."

"Blended Lifeguarding" - Harmonizing Technology and the Lifeguards Role
Poolview Plus+™
for the detection of drowning accidents in swimming pools
Poolview Limited have and produced a proactive AND reactive detection system for possible drowning incidents in swimming pools.
What do mean by Proactive?
Proactive Lifeguarding is about Prevention.
Using our tried and tested Poolview architecture, the lifeguards still have a monitor attached to their chair which displays the images from the eight carefully positioned underwater cameras, providing 100% below water coverage.
Our 8 image Lifeguard Monitor has the worlds first "Real Pool View" where the Lifeguard can track and follow swimmers deep end to shallow end on the top and bottom rows.
The Lifeguard will as normal continue to scan the swimming pool using the 10/20 Protection Rule. As well as scanning the surface of the water they allot 2-3 seconds of their time to check their individual Lifeguard Monitor for developing incidents or unusual swimmer behaviour.
They are proactively Lifeguarding their pool and zone of responsibility. They are still in control!
Poolview Plus+™ have developed artificial intelligence which operates software in the background and supports the fully trained Lifeguard with their responsibilities
Poolview Plus+™ will "track" each swimmer and continuously monitor their activity until such time as it detects a "possible drowning" developing.
At this point Poolview Plus+™ technology alerts the Lifeguard to the "unusual swimmer behaviour".
This information is relayed directly to Lifeguard via their Monitor.
The Lifeguard has then two options:-
acknowledge and disarm the alarm
acknowledge and escalate the alarm - which initiates the Emergency Action Plan and the swimmer is "rescued".
The Lifeguard throughout is always in control and is proactively Lifeguarding.
What do mean by Reactive?
In the situation when a Lifeguard "misses" a developing incident - their "co-worker" Poolview Plus+™ will back them up and draw their attention to a camera view and the relevant swimmer and issue a "Red Alert"
In essence there has been a "Loss of Control" and the Lifeguard is now reacting to a developed situation or incident.
Poolview™ architecture and software - the perfect match for your Lifeguards!
The Poolview Plus+ can also be installed as a "stand alone" drowning detection system, without the need for poolside lifeguard monitors if required.
Technology cannot replace totally human supervision but can be provided as an aid to assist supervision.

Melanin Supplement - Professional LookCurrent info about Melanin Supplement is not always the easiest thing to locate. Fortunately, this report includes the latest Melanin Supplement info available.
When most people think of Melanin Supplement, what comes to mind is usually basic information that's not particularly interesting or beneficial. But there's a lot more to Melanin Supplement than just the basics.
You should be able to find several indispensable facts about Melanin Supplement in the following paragraphs. If there's at least one fact you didn't know before, imagine the difference it might make. And the topic of Melanin Supplement is no exception.
Melanin Supplement - Tell me, where at the same time you may find the following: 19 million cells, 625 Melanin Supplement glands, 90 fatty glands, 65 hairs, 6 meters, blood vessels and 19 thousand sensory cells? Answer: in 7 cm Melanin Supplement human skin! The human skin is the largest organ of Rights (approximately 16% of the total body mass), and covers a total area of 20 square feet. Your skin performs many different protective and metabolic functions, stabilizing your body.
Layers of skin and Melanin Supplement - Your skin has two layers. The external layer, epidermis, consists of about 12 to 15 layers of cells. The thickness of epidermis is about 0.07 - 0.12 millimeters (about the thickness of an ordinary sheet of A4). This top layer is composed mainly of dead cells, which are constantly being updated with new cells. Melanin Supplement explained the process in his book "The human body":
"The cells of the epidermis-living, constantly growing and breeding, so that the cage for the cage onto top of derma. Without the influx of blood cell dies, and the intensity of our lives permanently erase this dead material from the surface of the body, but he constantly replaced by a new bottom, and we, therefore, contain our epidermis fresh all-time "Melanin Supplement. Sometimes, when lots of skin exposed to constant friction, epidermis responsible thickening themselves in the wrong place, forming PE Melanin Supplement. These plots can be hard to detect skin usually on the feet of people walk barefoot, and in the hands of farmers.
Gilchrest, Barbara A. (Brookline, MA, US)
Melanin Supplement - DetailsMelanin is a special pigment that gives the skin and hair its natural color. It makes the skin tanned, but also produces unwanted freckles, birthmarks and other colored marks on the body.
Melanin Supplement - More DetailsWith humans melanin forms in special sea-star shaped cells called melanocytes in the basal layer of epidermis and then transforms into granules where pigments are combined with protein. Melanocytes inject melanin grains into the cells of the upper skin layer (cortical layer of the hair and the iris of the eye) and determine their color.
Melanin Supplement - Doctors viewDoctors from time to time state that tea, coffee, chocolate and cacao are harmful for our health. However, it is no good to give up these products once and for all as they contain melanin that is essential for the human organism. Also prunes, bilberry or dark grapes are good protection against cancer, sunburns and influence of radiation.
Melanin Supplement - The inner layer, dermis, is a porous elastic area, the thickness of approximately 2 millimeters, consisting mainly of Melanin Supplement connective tissue (collagen, the fibrous protein found in the skin). Dermis is connected to the epidermis Melanin Supplement stratum consisting of nerves, blood vessels, hair follicle, sebaceous glands and Melanin Supplement glands, with each component has a particularly important role. Each hair follicle, for example, contains a hair, which transmits the signal to turn on the sensory nerves, which is located around the follicle. Melanin Supplement gland produces viscous secretion, called cutaneous fat to provide watertight skin. Melanin Supplement gland helps chilled skin and maintain constant body temperature.
The functions of the skin and Melanin Supplement - One of the most important functions of the skin-to provide us with a sense of haptic aids. Very good about it said Werner Gitt in Melanin Supplement:
"The most important quality of our skin is, what it embodies our sense of haptic aids. It is very difficult to study the haptic aids. All others have a separate our feelings, and some body responsible for it, which can be studied. But human skin carved all over his body and not isolate or "off". Scientists watching blind people can learn a lot about eyesight. This also applies to the study of deaf people to learn more about hearing impairment. But it is simply impossible to do with a sense of haptic aids "Melanin Supplement.
Receptors (from the Latin word receptor-recording device "), located in okonchaniyah nerve fibers and incentives used to capture and convert them into nerve impulses that are sent to the brain via the peripheral and central nervous system and Melanin Supplement. Receptors are also in internal organs, skeletal muscles and joints, and they may perceive information such as temperature cup of coffee or rudeness surface Emery. While we are "finger" with the help of our epidermis, in fact, all registered in the dermis, and is transmitted to the central nervous system.

Melanin Supplement - Good HairHaving a good hair day doesn't just happen by chance. It happens when taking care of your hair becomes just as important as taking care of your skin. But what do you do when your hair has been damaged by every day styling, and chemical processing, dyeing or perming? Is there any solution for fly-away hair, dullness and faded color?
Melanin Supplement - Science viewThe color of hair is determined by the amount of melanin in the cortical layer. Dark hair has a lot of pigment while fair hair has fewer granules that are of smaller size. Diffusive or non-granulated melanin makes the hair red. Hair, like any other part of the body, requires essentials nutrients for growth and survival.
Melanin Supplement - Good SkinWhen summer looms, many people start considering the best way to get that sun-bronzed glow — turning to self-tanners, tanning booths, a stretch in the sun, or a combination of these.
Melanin Supplement - Science viewBut before you go into a tanning booth — spend a few minutes finding out about your skin and sun exposure. These facts can help you get the look you want without stressing your skin.
Melanin Supplement - More DetailsMelanin is the body's way of protecting skin from burning. Darker-skinned people tan more deeply than lighter-skinned people because their melanocytes produce more melanin. But just because a person doesn't burn does not mean that he or she is also protected against skin cancer and other problems.

Melanin Supplement - People viewAnother very important function of the skin is to help maintain constant temperatures tel. Mr. Gillen wrote: "Melanin Supplement The word comes from two Greek words Melanin Supplement (means the same or similar) and Melanin Supplement (mean standing or remaining). The word means "remaining unchanged" ", (1999). The average human body temperature is 37 degrees Celsius, but it is worth rise by 2-3 degrees and remain such for some time, a man then, fastest, expects fatal. How, then, supports our body temperature stable? This occurs through the cooling method, which is known as Melanin Supplement (sweating). The main sources of heat in our body is the work of internal organs, such as hearts and kidneys, which are constantly working.
Heat, posed by these bodies, blood and blown evenly distributed all over the body. This is an effective way to slow dissipation of heat. But what happens when we need to quickly view the body rid itself of heat? Melanin Supplement further writes:
"We are equipped with small glands spread throughout our body. Their total number of approximately 2 million, and their task is to remove the water at the surface of the body. Once on the surface, the water evaporates, heat and thus leaving the body. This Melanin Supplement gland, and is produced liquid or Melanin Supplement sweat. Melanin Supplement gland ducts consist of a small, the bulk of which are located deep in the dermis. These tube extends upwards, reaching epidermis. Tiny holes on the surface of our body-pores, and they are distinctly barely glance. When you persist in working intensively or drive, heat increases, and then Melanin Supplement accelerate the provision of sweat glands. This also happens when the high temperature. Speed selection then can exceed the speed of evaporation, especially if high humidity, as well as the speed of evaporation increases with decreasing humidity. Sweating will then accumulate in the body in the form of drops "(p. 265)
Temperature determines how much iron is Melanin Supplement people, as well as the number of the sun determines how much melanin from human skin. People living in hot moist climate, tend to have more Melanin Supplement glands, and they sweating occurs with less salt concentrations than that of people who live in a cold and dry climates.
Melanin Supplement - More DetailsThink about what you've read so far. Does it reinforce what you already know about Melanin Supplement? Or was there something completely new? What about the remaining paragraphs about Melanin Supplement?
Melanin Supplement - Science viewLeather also works as a chemical processing plant for the entire body. When you are outdoors, leather combines a UV light emanating from the sun and then uses it to convert chemicals in vitamin D. This vitamin is essential for our body, because it helps promote the absorption of calcium. Without calcium, our bones grow thin and fragile that in the end leads to diseases such as rickets and Melanin Supplement(skeletal disease, which weakens bones). In addition, epidermis contains a special pigment, called melanin, which is responsible for the color of our skin. He is also responsible for the protection against ultraviolet light and Melanin Supplement.
Melanin absorbs ultraviolet light, not causing any harm to themselves, and provides for the protection layer located beneath it. Like vitamin D, melanin formed by the action of sunlight, so people in tropical regions have more melanin to protect against UV light, while people in the northern regions actually have no melanin. But not all people are able to make melanin. Sometimes, some people in general are born without the ability to produce melanin. Their skin and hair are pink shade and the color of their eyes Melanin Supplement as tiny blood vessels visible in the iris of the eye (which is usually formed and eye color-blue, green, brown or brown). A man who suffers from such a disease called Melanin Supplement that means the absence of pigmentation. This disease is characterized not only people but also some animal species (such as white rat, a white elephant, white tiger, etc.).
Further, the skin also helps protect the inside of our body. If you ever have fun in the park, you might have seen the attraction, in which machines while driving on hitting another friend. Collisions between these machines is absolutely safe, because they have the entire perimeter of rubber ring. My skin is very much like those rubber ring by acting as a sink for strikes and shocks defending, in a way, our internal organs. If we did not have this' shock absorber ', we are unlikely to be able to make any physical exercise, not damaging their internal organs.
It is simply not possible that the process of evolution has made such an important and complex body of the skin. Many complex functions skin is a powerful testimony to the Creator. One writer once said: "Skin rights is simply an evolutionary engineering marvel: it provides a watertight body, blocks and eliminates harmful bacteria, regulates temperature and is in constant contact with the brain." Melanin Supplement.
Of course, our skin is a "miracle", but not evolution. Of course, my skin really have a product 'engineering and chief engineer is God!
Now you can understand why there's a growing interest in Melanin Supplement. When people start looking for more information about Melanin Supplement, you'll be in a position to meet their needs.
