The Energy Sector Security Consortium, Inc. (EnergySec) is a United States 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation formed to support energy sector organizations with the security of their critical technology infrastructures. Through our membership program, we support collaborative initiatives and projects that help enhance the cybersecurity resiliency of these organizations
Today, our community includes more than 5000 individuals representing more than 500 organizations. The development of the EnergySec information sharing efforts and workforce development remain a key focus areas of EnergySec as it continues to develop programs and other efforts to meet the needs of the energy sector into the future.
Our humble beginnings,
The foundation of EnergySec was established over a decade ago as relationships formed between a group of information security, physical security, disaster recovery and business continuity professionals from energy organizations in the Pacific Northwest. Initially, a small group met for lunch to discuss the security challenges they were all facing. The idea was simple, share common security practices for the purpose of learning from each other.
As news spread about the lunch meetings, more people wanted to join and it quickly outgrew the informal setting. EnergySec Northwest, better known as E-Sec NW, was formed in early 2004. An online forum and quarterly meetings were established to give security professionals more time together and better ways to share information with each other.
In 2005, E-Sec NW hosted its first annual summit. The two-day event was a success from the beginning. There was no other meeting of its kind being held at the time. The summit promoted open and honest dialog, creative ideas, and collaborative solutions designed to benefit as many as possible. The summit especially appealed to the "boots on the ground" security practitioners who, prior to this time, had found themselves isolated at their respective organizations.
As interest continued to grow across North America the "northwest" was dropped from the name to embrace the burgeoning role as a national information sharing organization for the energy sector. Attendance at the annual summit continued to grow every year and new relationships developed with product and service vendors, government agencies and academic institutions.

The government posted a smaller operating deficit than expected in last month's Budget forecast as an underspend in April offset a lagging GST tax-take.
The Crown's operating balance before gains and losses (obegal) was a deficit of $1.37 billion in the 10 months ended April 30, smaller than the $1.52 billion shortfall estimated in the May 15 Budget economic and fiscal update, and down from a deficit of $3.99 billion a year earlier. Core Crown expenses were $90 million below forecast at $57.88 billion with underspends across a number of departments, the biggest of which was at the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment. The tax-take was $111 million below forecast at $50.23 billion due largely to the timing of goods and services tax refund assessments, which are expected to reverse in May, though still up 4.8 percent from a year earlier.
Last month Finance Minister Bill English confirmed a return to Budget surplus in 2015 at $372 million, wider than the $86 million projected in the half year economic and fiscal update, with bigger surpluses projected after that as an accelerating economy helps bolster the government's books.
The corporate tax take was in line with the May forecast at $7.14 billion accrued in the 10-month period, and was up from $7.09 billion a year earlier. Income tax was $147 million ahead of forecast at $23.43 billion, up from $22 billion in 2013, while residential withholding tax was $61 million short of expectations at $1.7 billion, and down from $1.75 billion. GST was $194 million below forecast, though still up from $12.41 billion in 2013.
The Crown's residual cash deficit was $138 million below forecast at $6.51 billion, and lower than the $9.64 billion in 2013, due to a smaller than expected wage bill and capital expenditure.
Net debt was in line with the May forecast at $62.25 billion, or 28.1 percent of gross domestic product, while gross debt was $83.04 billion, or 27.5 percent of GDP.
The operating balance, which includes movements in the Crown's investment portfolio, was a surplus of $3.81 billion, $252 million ahead of forecast, and up from $2.81 billion a year earlier, with strong equity markets underpinning unrealised gains in the value of the New Zealand Superannuation Fund.

4 Tips To Improve Your Senior's Immunity
As the years pass, seniors' immunity grows weaker. And, a poor immune system cannot protect one from various infections and diseases, especially in the flu season. It is important for seniors to take action to improve their immunity and ensure that they are not vulnerable to diseases.
Here are four tips that can help your senior improve immunity.
Vaccination – The best way to protect your loved one from infections and disease is to get them vaccinated. It will help in reducing the risk of catching infections for them, effectively reducing your worries.
Diet – Diet plays an important part in improving immunity. Your dear one's poor immune system can be improved if they take proper diet, which includes vitamins and proteins. Encourage your senior to eat more fruits and vegetables, so that they can get necessary nutrients. Also, make sure that they reduce the amount of sugar, fat and salt intake to stay healthy.
Exercise – You may not realize but exercise can help your senior a lot in improving their weaker immune system. Exercise helps in improving blood flow throughout the body and boosts immunity.
Sleep – Make sure that your loved one gets enough sleep, as it also affects their immune system.
With these tips, you can help your dear one improve their immunity. However, aging leaves many seniors unable to care for themselves. As a result, they grow weaker and may get sick. In these situations, you need to make sure that they are well taken care of, even in your absence. For this purpose, you can hire in home care providers in Morris from a noted firm like Always Best Care.

The College Student Personnel (CSP) degree program at Bowling Green State University was initiated in 1964 under the direction of the late Frank C. Arnold, Professor of Psychology and Director of the Counseling Center. A committee consisting of faculty members from the departments of Psychology and Sociology assisted in giving this program leadership for the first five years. The typical size of the class from 1964 to 1969 was six to eight students. These first students usually worked in the residence halls in an administrative capacity.
In the fall of 1968, the late Dr. Gerald L. Saddlemire was employed as the first Departmental Chair effective June 1, 1969. Dr. Saddlemire expanded the curriculum and arranged for a number of internships for CSP graduate students. The size of the class increased to 17 in the 1970-71 academic year. Opportunities for salaried internships for the graduate students increased both on the Bowling Green campus and at other local colleges. Dr. Saddlemire served in the role of Department Chair until 1985 and continued teaching and advising students until his death at the age of 70 in 1991.
Dr. Harold Marquardt joined the staff in September, 1970. He contributed significantly to the growth of the program until his untimely death in April of 1978. Dr. Audrey Rentz, who completed her doctoral degree at Michigan State University, came to campus in 1974 with a joint appointment in the Division of Student Affairs and the College Student Personnel Department. In September, 1978 she became a full-time faculty member. In December, 1996, Dr. Rentz retired from BGSU after 24 years of service. She continued to teach on a part-time basis in 1997. She passed away in 2010.
Dr. Carney Strange completed his doctoral work at the University of Iowa and also joined the Department in 1978. He served as Department Chair from 1985 until 1993. Dr. Strange retired in 2013 and was named Professor - Emeritus. Dr. Patricia King, who completed her doctoral degree at the University of Minnesota, was appointed to the faculty first as Visiting Assistant Professor in 1982 and was tenured in 1986. She served as Acting Chair during the 1993-94 academic year and was named Chair in 1994. Dr. King left the faculty after 19 years to join the faculty of the Center for the Study of Higher and Postsecondary Education at the University of Michigan. Dr. Leila Moore served on the faculty as a Visiting Associate Professor during the 1985-87 academic years.
Dr. Michael Coomes completed his doctoral work at Indiana University and joined the CSP Department in 1986; he was awarded tenure in 1993. He assumed the position of Chair in 1999, a position he held until 2010. Dr. Coomes retired in 2015 and was named Associate Professor - Emeritus. Dr. Carolyn Palmer joined the Department in August of 1990 from her position as assistant director of housing for research at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, where she also completed her doctoral work. Dr. Palmer was awarded tenure in 1996 and oversaw the Adult Learner Focus program before her retirement in 2011.
Dr. Robert DeBard, who completed his doctorate at Indiana University, began teaching courses for the Department in 1990 while serving as dean of Firelands College. Dr. DeBard became a full-time faculty member in the Department in 1996 and retired in 2011.
Dr. Vivian Rogers, as a Visiting Professor during the 1984-85 academic year, provided leadership for developing a new emphasis on the adult learner. In 1986, Dr. Barbara Bauer came from Teachers College at Columbia University and built upon Dr. Roger's work. Dr. Fiona MacKinnon, who completed her doctoral work at Ohio State University, was appointed to the faculty as an Assistant Professor in the fall of 1988. She was awarded tenure in 1993.
Several administrators have served as adjunct faculty in the department. Dr. Suzanne Crawford, Dean of Continuing Education, International, and Summer Programs, first joined the University Staff in 1974 and retired in 2001. Dr. Edward Whipple, Vice President of Student Affairs at BGSU, completed his doctorate at Oregon State University, and began teaching in the department in 1996. In July 2011, Dr. Whipple left BGSU to work for the National Association of Student Personnel Administrators (NASPA) in Washington, DC. Dr. John Saddlemire served as a Visiting Associate Professor from 1997-2001. He left the CSP program in 2001 when he became the Dean of Students at the University of Connecticut. He is the son of Dr. Gerald Saddlemire.
In January of 1991, the name of the Department was changed from College Student Personnel to Higher Education and Student Affairs (HESA) to reflect the incorporation of the Higher Education Administration doctoral program. In the fall of 1991, Dr. Donald D. Gehring joined the Department faculty as Professor and Director of the Higher Education Doctoral Program. The Department of Higher Education and Student Affairs then housed two distinct programs: a) a two year master's degree program in College Student Personnel and b) a 63-hour post-master's doctoral program in Higher Education Administration. Dr. Gehring retired in December 2000 and now resides in Georgia.
In 1995, a departmental convocation was initiated to welcome new students and affirm the CSP and HIED programs' academic values. This event has been held annually since that time.
From the fall of 1996 through the summer of 1997, Dr. Mary Howard-Hamilton took a leave from the University of Florida to join the CSP faculty as a Visiting Associate Professor.
In the fall of 1998, Dr. Fred A. Bonner II joined the CSP faculty as an Assistant Professor. Dr. Bonner completed his doctoral work at the University of Arkansas, and had previously taught at Centenary College, in Shreveport, Louisiana. Dr. Bonner left the faculty in August 2000 to join the faculty of the University of Texas at San Antonio.
In 1998, the College of Education and Human Development restructured into five schools. The College Student Personnel and Higher Education Administration programs were combined with the Educational Foundations and Inquiry, Educational Administration and Supervision, and Leadership Studies programs to form the School of Leadership and Policy Studies. Dr. Patricia King served as the School's first Director, and Drs. Gehring and Coomes have similarly served in that capacity.
Fall 2001 saw the largest influx of new faculty thus far in the program's history. Dr. Michael Dannells (Ph.D., University of Iowa) joined the faculty after teaching for 15 years at Kansas State University. Dr. Dannells left the faculty in August 2008 to relocate in Oregon.
Dr. Ellen Broido, who earned her doctorate at Pennsylvania State University, joined the faculty in 2001 after teaching at Portland State University. In May, 2017, Dr. Broido was promoted to full professor.
Dr. Maureen Wilson (Ph.D., Ohio State University) taught from 1998-2001 at Mississippi State University before also joining the faculty at Bowling Green in 2001. She assumed the CSP Chair position in 2010. In May 2016, Dr. Wilson was promoted to full professor. In 2019, she moved into the Associate Dean for Graduate Education and Faculty Affairs in the College of Education and Human Development at BGSU.
Dr. Dafina Stewart joined the HESA program in the fall of 2005. He completed his doctoral work in 2001 from The Ohio State University and served as an Assistant Professor of College Student Personnel and Higher Education at Ohio University from 2002-2005. He was tenured and promoted in 2010. In May 2016, he was promoted to full professor. Dr. Stewart left the department in May 2017 to assume the position of Coordinator of the SAHE program at Colorado State University.
In the Fall of 2006, Higher Education and Student Affairs was granted the approval by the College of Education and Human Development and the BGSU Board of Trustees to act as a free-standing department.
Dr. Christina Lunceford joined the HESA faculty in 2011. She previously worked as the assistant director in the Center of Research on Educational Access and Leadership at California State University, Fullerton after completing her doctorate at Michigan State University. Dr. Lunceford was tenured and promoted to associate professor in 2018. In 2019, she assumed the Interim Department Chair for HESA.

You might know him as that crazy, energetic guy on YouTube with his family known as "The Shaytards", but what you may not know is his backstory and other elements of his persona that make him truly inspirational.
1. He has worked his way past tough times. When Shay and his wife, Colette, were first starting out their family, times were really hard. They were in debt, and Shay was struggling to help his family survive. He worked extremely hard and was eventually able to get out of debt to support his growing family. Before he knew it, he was doing what he loved (making YouTube videos) and he even co-founded Maker Studios (who was then bought by Disney!). This just shows how strong of a person he is, simply by how he never gave up.
2. He values the importance of family. Shay records the daily life of him and his family because he likes to capture the memories and share it with the world. He always spends as much time as he can with his wife and children, because he understands how vital that time is. He always makes an effort to experience new adventures with his family because he wants to open his children up to the world and allow them to live life to the fullest.
3. He is always positive and upbeat. Through his vlogs, one can tell that Shay has a very energetic and loud personality, which reflects his way of approaching life. He constantly takes time to talk about important life lessons and looking on the bright side of things, which is what he tries to do with his own life. His emphasized smiles and his crazy laughter and shenanigans show people that you don't have to take life so seriously all the time and that it's a good thing to have some fun!
4. He is truly passionate about what he does. You can tell how much he loves producing videos and the fact that his family is involved just makes him love it even more. He always talks about how much he enjoys his career and how grateful he is to have a job that he thoroughly enjoys. His creative soul shines through all the time, which allows him to inspire others to find an outlet in which they can express themselves.
5. He is very adventurous. Shay is always trying new and exciting things and he is a huge believer in doing things that scare you. He proves to everyone that life is a lot more satisfying if you put yourself out there and try not to hold back from doing anything. I'm fairly certain that he would try anything once, which just reflects how blissfully crazy he is.
6. He is extremely determined. This quality especially shines through when it comes to his weight loss and fitness goals. If you watch early Shaytards videos, you can tell how much weight Shay has lost from that point up until now. He even has a separate YouTube channel called Shayloss which documents his fitness journey. He has even participated in several marathons, which at one point, he never even thought would be possible for him, yet he worked his way up to that point through determination. He keeps his determination streak going on this weight loss journey and continues to strive and work his way to the top.
7. He genuinely cares about others. Whether it be fulfilling a Make a Wish dream of meeting him and his family, or just simply acknowledging his appreciation for his fans, Shay has a heart that is big enough to go around the entire world. He not only encourages his children to follow their dreams and goals, but he encourages all of his viewers to do so as well. He sees the good in everyone, which makes him a well-rounded human being. This also makes him a great role model for people of all ages because he knows the value of treating others with respect.

We are proud to publicize this weeks lecture on the Battle of Crete, sponsored by our "sister" organization, the part of the Battle of Crete and Greece Commemorative Council.
This is part of the series of annual commemorative events and talks, Dr Peter Ewer will deliver this important lecture at the Melbourne's Greek Centre, 7pm, this Thursday, 3rd August 2017.
The Battle for Maleme
Why were the Nazi paratroopers victorious at Maleme, when in very similar circumstances, Australian, British and Greek troops successfully held the equally important aerodromes at Rethmyno and Heraklion?
Maleme - Fulcrum of War - Synopsis
It is a matter of historical record that the Nazi invasion of Crete succeeded because of their victory at the airfield at Maleme west of Chania, in fierce fighting between 20 and 22 May 1941. But why were the Nazi paratroopers victorious at Maleme, when in very similar circumstances, Australian, British and Greek troops successfully held the equally important aerodromes at Rethmyno and Heraklion?
Dr Ewer analyses the battle in detail, beginning with the plans of defending General, the New Zealander Bernard Freyburg, He had come out of retirement in 1939 to take command of the New Zealand Expeditionary Force (NZEF), and faced on Crete complex tactical problems which few had seen before. Freyburg feared most of all an invasion from the sea, and in attempting to meet that threat, he left the vital ground at Maleme too weakly defended, with disastrous results.
Dr Peter Ewer
Dr Peter Ewer is an Australian historian and author.
He is published in internationally renowned academic journals the Journal of Military History (University of Virginia). He has also published in the Journal of Transport History (University of Manchester Press, UK), and a range of local history journals, including Australian Historical Studies (University of Melbourne).
Forgotten Anzacs: the campaign in Greece, 1941, published in 2008, was the first extensive re-examination of the Greek campaign since the publication of the official histories in Australia and New Zealand in the 1950s. The revised edition of the book published in 2016, incorporates fresh archival research into British planning for the campaign, shedding new light on the ANZAC contribution to the defence of the Greece.
Peter served as the historical advisor to the 42nd Street Memorial Trust, the community organisation that built the memorial at Tsikalaria Street, Tsikalaria, Crete, to commemorate the fighting there on 27 May 1941, and unveiled by the New Zealand Governor General on 19 May 2016.
This presentation is sponsored by the Battle of Crete & Greece Commemorative Council.
Attendance is free, all welcome.

If the latest rumours are to be believed, the upcoming Samsung Galaxy Note 4 will come equipped with flexible screens. Note that the use of the word "screens" there, this bad-boy is not just going to have one flexible screen, it's going to have three.
According to the folks at ZDNet Korea, the Galaxy Note 4 will be equipped with Samsung's "Youm" flexible displays, a more advanced version of the flexible displays we've already seen in the Galaxy Round. They're also bigging up the rumour of three screens, which suggests that the phablet will have readable displays on each side of the phone. This is making me a little nervous; either those screens are going to be tiny, or the Galaxy Note 4 is going to be seriously chunky.
Of course, these are just rumours, and the tri-screen display might just be a prototype -- if it even exists. Then again, it is also possible that Samsung is willing to stir things up by implementing a massive design change. We'll just have to wait and see if the device is officially announced later this year. [ZDNET Korea via TechRadar]

Under eye Treatment
Under eyes. Yeah, I know. As an insomniac I know all too well.
That's why I put our Coffee Bean Fresh Scrub on double duty as an undercover eye treatment. This scrub has caffeine and black pepper to get blood circulating, and to help flush out junk that's causing dark circles in the first place. Anti-inflammatory coffee and calendula can also help reduce puffiness and redness.
If you don't have our scrub, try mixing some coconut oil, ground coffee and a pinch of fresh ground black pepper in the palm of your hand.

Milwaukee Courthouse fire damage means cause may never be known
Officials say the cause of an electrical fire at the Milwaukee County Courthouse in July may never be known.
Cost of cleanup and replacing electrical systems has topped $10 million so far.
Supervisors were told Wednesday that damage to electrical components in the courthouse basement was so severe it may be impossible to pinpoint the exact cause of the fire.
Don Tyler, the county's director of administrative services, told a County Board committee "There's not that much left to investigate."
Tyler says insurance investigators have not told the county anything so far about the cause.
The last upgrade of the courthouse electrical system was done in the 1960s. According to a February inspection report, the system was in need of substantial upgrades.

Review: POLICE STORY 2013 Is Low-Rent, Lacklustre & Dull
Around the Internet
Uhhhg son of a bitch. I had high hopes for this and now I completely give up on Chan. Will I watch it? Yes. Will I enjoy it? Doubtful.
Don't worry roboticplague, Mr. Marsh is only disappointed, doesn't mean the movie is bad at all. It can't be worse then Special ID ;)
Well, that's disappointing.
Those trailers show pretty much every frame of action in the film - some of which are flashbacks, others actually fantasy sequences of imagined confrontations!
I have to say the action in SPECIAL ID is much better.
CZ12, Badges of Fury, Tom Yum Goong 2, Special ID and now this... Well I've still to see the latter two for myself, but it seems the past year has been an depressingly off year for the big martial arts actors. Iceman 3D and Last of The Best have a lot of hope to restore.
Ditto on that. This was supposed to be the comeback year for martial arts films. Let's hope The Raid 2 restores that luster in 2014.
I hope to be posting a review of ONCE UPON A TIME IN SHANGHAI today, which offers some hope on that front.
damn lol. I thought the action in Special ID sucked. Donnie Yen is hit and miss when he does the choreography. Sometimes it is awesome then there are others it is ridiculously bad. Didn't help that Clarence Fok is a shitty director.
soo lucky. I really wish I could see all of these movies in theaters. Perhaps someday.........
If the Raid 2 fails to impress I will sew my eyelids shut.
Not to mention Wolf War and S.P.L. 2...
Man, I'd love Wolf War to be good. Wu Jing aint so young any more and if he doesn't break through soon he's just not going to. A bunch of wasted years for him following SPL ...
Indeed, though I'd salvage a few films (Fatal Contact, Shaolin come to mind) and even isolated performances (he was quite stylish and good in the otherwise unstylish and ungood City Under Siege).
Yup, I like Fatal Contact a lot, too.
It really did look like, in the trailers that I saw to this movie, that Jackie Chan was getting his ass kicked.
I like to see Jackie Chan kicking ass, not the other way around.
CZ12: Chinese Zodiac was relentlessly insufferable
Plot-wise, maybe. But I was quite impressed by the action and stunt work, and special effects. In fact, I think much of it was his best in many, many years. Probably comparable to Rumble in the Bronx
Little Big Soldier, a genuine highlight of the actor's recent output
Really? I found that movie to be quite long & boring, and really lacking in any action.
I guess, perhaps, because I don't watch foreign-language films unless there is significant action, I don't really appreciate foreign-language dramas (there are exceptions of course, in my book).
they should have brought back tse's character best thing about new police story
Not to mention Michelle Yeoh in Police Story 3... Still hoping they'll make a new film together.
So I saw this yesterday and OMG It was worse than I could have ever imagined. Terrible movie. There is one scene where Jackie is imagining what would happen if swat were to breach the building. It looked like it was shot with a 400 dollar camera. I have seen tv shows with better productions. Please Jackie just stop already. nobody wants to see you in "serious" roles. Stop acting and move on to directing the younger guys. I will never be anxious to see another one of his movies for him alone.
I loved it; I thought it was a great combination of say.... Shinjuku Incident, Crime Story - put into a hostage situation. With unique flashback retakes.
Worse than Chinese Zodiac and The Medallion combined.
Saw it and it's good. Forget the "Police Story" title. The movie lives on it's own.
Short and quick, but good hard boiled action and very good performances by Jackie Chan and Liu Ye. A surprise! And I'm eagerly awaiting another Ding Shen directorial effort.
I think if the film wasn't called Police Story I may have liked it more.
The film has scenes that make you think something is going to happen, such as a cool fight or stunt scene (like all previous Police Story's) but disappoints you with nothing happening.
If you watch this film expecting something like Police Story, then like me you'll be disappointed. If you go into this film thinking more of a up to date Crime Story, then you may like it.
Also one mistake in the review, as this is the sixth Police Story.
My apologies, I'm just trying to comprehend something that's actually worse than The Medallion.

Storage Wars
Tips for winning the fight to organize tackle
Anglers have an amazing array of lures, terminal tackle and other accessories at their disposal to help them catch more fish. In fact, it's safe to say that today's presentational options dwarf those available just a decade or two ago. Of course, all the great tackle in the world won't help you catch a single fish if you can't manage your gear in a manner that engenders efficient fishing.
"Organizing your tackle is one of the biggest factors in fishing success," says veteran guide, tournament champion and freshwater expert Scott Glorvigen. "Fortunately, today's tackle storage systems make it easier than ever to keep everything in order at every step in the process, from long-term storage in your shop or garage all the way onto the water."
The benefits of being organized begin long before your first cast. "The more organized you are, the easier it is to get ready to go fishing," says Glorvigen. "For example, if you only have a couple of hours after work to get out on the lake, you don't want to spend all your time tracking down tackle. And if your gear is in total disarray, the task of pulling your act together can become so overwhelming, it's easier not to go fishing at all."
Mastering the art of organization starts with the right storage systems. Not so long ago, anglers were limited to metal or hard-plastic tackle boxes, which offered trays for cradling lures. Trouble was, small boxes never held enough baits, while the large ones were heavy enough to tip a canoe. Then modular storage systems arrived, anchored by an assortment of interchangeable plastic trays called utility boxes. After more than 15 years of refinements, they've become remarkable allies in the fight to tame tackle.
"Utility boxes are the building blocks of organization," says Glorvigen, who favors Plano's 3700 series StowAway boxes for much of his tackle. With a 14 x 9.13-inch footprint, the boxes are available in a variety of heights to accommodate different lures and storage needs.
By stocking utilities with specific styles of lures or other tackle, such as shallow-running minnowbaits or bottom-bouncing rigs and sinkers, it's possible to grab only the gear you reasonably expect to use for each fishing trip. "You're also less likely to forget something that could cost you fish," he adds.
Utility boxes have their place for protecting personal items, too," he notes. "Plano's small, waterproof polycarbonate boxes with soft-rubber linings are perfect for protecting your cell phone, truck keys, wallet, and other valuables."
Guide Series waterproof cases like this protect phones, keys and other valuables.
Glorvigen also tailors the size of utility boxes to where they'll be stored in the boat. "I like to put tackle in the area where I'll be using it," he says. "That way, I'm not running all over the boat to change lures or re-rig." For example, boxes
containing backtrolling components always find a home in the back of the boat, while bass plastics, bottom-bouncers and spinnerbait boxes go up front, since these tactics are fished from the bow. "Some compartments won't handle a full-size utility box, so you may need to downsize," he notes.
"Also make sure the bottom two rows of boxes are water proof, to prevent water from getting in and causing rust," he says. "Typically compartments fill from the bottom up. If water's coming in from the top, you have bigger problems than wet tackle."
In The Bag
Plano 3700 Guide Series Bag
Soft-sided tackle bags are another player on the storage scene. "These are great for keeping everything you need for a certain species or technique," says Glorvigen."You can keep bass tackle such as plastics, weights, jigs, spinnerbaits and hooks in a large bag, and use smaller bags for specific tactics, like dropshotting."
Soft-sides also shine when you're going fishing in a buddy's boat, or perhaps are headed for a club tournament as a co-angler. "You can easily pack everything you need for a day trip or tournament, such as lures, extra line and tools, into a soft-sided bag or two."
Plano's 3700 Guide Series Bag adds another benefit to the mix. "It holds five StowAways inside, and another one on top," says Glorvigen. "Having the tray you're working out of on top of the bag gives you quick access to the baits you need, while keeping the utility box that's holding them from getting lost in the shuffle. It's a convenient concept anytime, and an absolute godsend for night-fishing."
Trunk Systems
When stowing utilities and other fishing gear in a garage, shop or other tackle repository between trips, another handy organizational device comes into play, the storage trunk.
Plano Storage Trunk
"Typically I put utility boxes in small trunks, which are easier to move around, and store bulkier gear in medium-size trunks," says Glorvigen. Plano's 1619 Small Storage Trunk, for example, spans 24 x 15 x 13 inches, and swallows a stack of utilities. The midsize 1719, meanwhile, stretches 30 x 14.25 x 12.75 inches. It's ideal for everything from raingear and spare lifejackets to electronics.
Besides keeping tackle in cold storage, trunks are also handy in transit. "You can pack one with bulky gear for the trip and throw it in the back of the truck, or in the boat, and it won't blow out," he says, noting that Plano's trunks feature tie-down points for easy fastening, and are lockable for added security.
Added together, Glorvigen's tackle storage tips offer a solid plan for managing gear, no matter the size of your arsenal. "More organization means more opportunities to catch fish, and better experiences on the water," he adds. Which is all the more reason to marshal your tackle and make this your best season ever.

With but hours to go.
Looking back on the past year. Now there is a way to waste some time. How about investing that time
in looking forward to the next year, planning your moves to make it a
good one. What are you going to do in 2017 to make someone's life
better? How are you going to position yourself to be a positive
influence on someone? What can you do to make things better in this
We might start by giving up whining about the
way things are. We might consider being considerate. We might stop
thinking only of self and think of the needs of others. Cliches?
Sometimes the things we need most can be expressed in just such ways.
We have come to denigrate and disparage when we ought better to accept
and encourage. Accept "wrong"? No, accept that it may be the case that
I am not the only one who is right, that it may be the case that I am
sometimes wrong myself.
The term a**h*le has become so
common place that we should all be ashamed for using it and for allowing it to be used in print, in confrontation, and in conversation. People are not
a**h*les. People are people. People are flawed. Are you not a flawed
person? People make mistakes; people behave stupidly. People are
often annoying. But it is our role to live with them, even to care for
them and to love them. Difficult? We've no idea until we try it.
Celebrate the beginning of a better world, a world that is better beginning with a better you!

Amazing Meal is Awesome !
I love to share my favorite new foods. Amazing meal by Amazing grass is my new crave. The chocolate infusion feeds my chocolate addiction in a healthy way. For my morning snack at work I mix this with almond milk. It's great for my post workout meal/ night snack. I'll add a banana and peanut butter. It fits right into my gluten/ dairy free trial. I know I probably sound like an advertisement but I love new foods. I usually prefer my fruits and veggies fresh but this is a great way to get in an extra serving or two a day. Like the commercials used to say " try it you'll like it".

The Basin and Range Province is a vast physiographic region defined by a unique topographic expression. Basin and range topography is characterized by abrupt changes in elevation, alternating between narrow faulted mountain chains and flat arid valleys or basins. The region covers much of the western United States, extends into northwestern Mexico and is mostly desert, with numerous ecoregions. The physiography of the province is the result of tectonic extension that began around 17 Ma (million years ago) in Early Miocene time.
The numerous ranges within the Province in the United States are collectively referred to as the Great Basin Ranges, although many are not actually in the Great Basin. Major ranges include the Snake Range, the Panamint Range, the White Mountains, the Sandia Mountains, and the San Francisco Peaks.
Depending on the various geographical definitions of the Province, the highest point of the Province is either Mount Whitney or Pico de Orizaba, both of which are located at the boundary of the Province and belong to other geologic regions as well. The highest point fully within the Province is White Mountain Peak in California, while the lowest point is the Badwater Basin in Death Valley at −279 feet (−85 m).[1]
Clarence Dutton famously compared the many narrow parallel mountain ranges that distinguish the unique topography of the Basin and Range to an "army of caterpillars marching toward Mexico", which is a helpful way to visualize the overall appearance of the region.[2] The Basin and Range province should not be confused with The Great Basin, which is a sub-section of the greater Basin and Range physiographic region defined by its unique hydrological characteristics (internal drainage).
The Basin and Range Province includes much of western North America. In the United States, it is bordered on the west by the eastern fault scarp of the Sierra Nevada and spans over 500 miles (800 km) to its eastern border marked by the Wasatch Fault, the Colorado Plateau and the Rio Grande Rift. The Basin and Range Province extends north to the Columbia Plateau and south as far as the Trans-Mexican Volcanic Belt in Mexico, though the southern boundaries of the Basin and Range are debated.[3] In Mexico, the Basin and Range Province is dominated by and largely synonymous with the Mexican Plateau.
Evidence suggests that the less-recognized southern portion of the Basin and Range Province is bounded on the east by the Laramide Thrust Front of the Sierra Madre Oriental and on the west by the Gulf of California and Baja Peninsula with notably less faulting apparent in the Sierra Madre Occidental in the center of the southernmost Basin and Range Province.[4]
Common geographic features include numerous endorheic basins, ephemeral lakes, plateaus, and valleys alternating with mountains (as described below). The area is mostly arid and sparsely populated, although there are several major metropolitan areas, including Mexico City, the largest city in the western hemisphere.[5]
It is generally accepted that basin and range topography is the result of extension and thinning of the lithosphere, which is composed of crust and upper mantle. Extensional environments like the Basin and Range are characterized by listric normal faulting, or faults that level out with depth. Opposing normal faults link at depth producing a horst and graben geometry, where horst refers to the upthrown fault block and graben to the down dropped fault block.
The average crustal thickness of the Basin and Range Province is approximately 30 – 35 km and is comparable to extended continental crust around the world.[6] The crust in conjunction with the upper mantle comprises the lithosphere. The base of the lithosphere beneath the Basin and Range is estimated to be about 60 – 70 km.[7] Opinions vary regarding the total extension of the region, however the median estimate is about 100% total lateral extension.[8] Total lateral displacement in the Basin and Range varies from 60 – 300 km since the onset of extension in the Early Miocene with the southern portion of the province representing a greater degree of displacement than the north. Evidence exists to suggest that extension initially began in the southern Basin and Range and propagated north over time.[9]
The tectonic mechanisms responsible for lithospheric extension in the Basin and Range province are controversial, and several competing hypotheses attempt to explain it. Key events preceding Basin and Range extension in the western United States include a long period of compression due to the subduction of the Farallon Plate under the west coast of the North American continental plate which stimulated the thickening of the crust. Most of the pertinent tectonic plate movement associated with the Basin and Range Province occurred in Neogene time and continues to the present. By Early Miocene time, much of the Farallon Plate had been consumed, and the seafloor spreading ridge that separated the Farallon Plate from the Pacific Plate (East Pacific Rise) approached North America.[10] In the Middle Miocene, the East Pacific Rise was subducted beneath North America ending subduction along this part of the Pacific margin; however, the Farallon Plate continued to subduct into the mantle.[10] The movement at this boundary divided the East Pacific Rise and spawned the San Andreas transform fault, generating an oblique strike-slip component.[11] Today, the Pacific Plate moves north-westward relative to North America, a configuration which has given rise to increased shearing along the continental margin.[10]
The tectonic activity responsible for the extension in the Basin and Range is a complex and controversial issue among the geoscience community. The most accepted hypothesis suggests that crustal shearing associated with the San Andreas Fault caused spontaneous extensional faulting similar to that seen in the Great Basin.[12] However, plate movement alone does not account for the high elevation of the Basin and Range region.[13] The western United States is a region of high heat flow which lowers the density of the lithosphere and stimulates isostatic uplift as a consequence.[14] Lithospheric regions characterized by elevated heat flow are weak and extensional deformation can occur over a broad region. Basin and Range extension is therefore thought to be unrelated to the kind of extension produced by mantle upwelling which may cause narrow rift zones, such as the Afar Triple Junction.[15] Geologic processes that elevate heat flow are varied, however some researchers suggest that heat generated at a subduction zone is transferred to the overriding plate as subduction proceeds. Fluids along fault zones then transfer heat vertically through the crust.[16] This model has led to increasing interest in geothermal systems in the Basin and Range, and requires consideration of the continued influence of the fully subducted Farallon plate in the extension responsible for the Basin and Range Province.
In some localities in the Basin and Range, metamorphic basement is visible at the surface. Some of these are metamorphic core complex (MCC), an idea that was first developed based on studies in the Basin and Range Province. A metamorphic core complex occurs when lower crust is brought to the surface as a result of extension. MCCs in the Basin and Range were not interpreted as being related to crustal extension until after the 1960s. Since then, similar deformational patterns have been identified in MCCs in the Basin and Range and has led geologists to examine them as a group of related geologic features formed by Cenozoic crustal extension. The study of metamorphic core complexes has provided valuable insight into the extensional processes driving Basin and Range formation.[17]
Prior to the Eocene Epoch (55.8 ±0.2 to 33.9 ±0.1 Ma) the convergence rate of the Farallon and North American Plates was fast, the angle of subduction was shallow, and the slab width was huge. During the Eocene the Farallon Plate subduction-associated compressive forces of the Laramide, Sevier and Nevada orogenies ended, plate interactions changed from orthogonal compression to oblique strike-slip, and volcanism in the Basin and Range Province flared up (Mid-Tertiary ignimbrite flare-up). It is suggested that this plate continued to be underthrust until about 19 Ma, at which time it was completely consumed and volcanic activity ceased, in part. Olivine basalt from the oceanic ridge erupted around 17 Ma and extension began.[18][19][20][21]
In addition to small amounts of Nevada petroleum, the Basin and Range province supplies nearly all the copper and most of the gold, silver, and barite mined in the United States.

Key Information on Scratch 4 Diamonds Game March 30, 2016
Bingo Extra presents Scratch 4 Diamonds scratch-card. This excellently designed game revolves around the precious stone – Diamond, which means unbreakable in Greek. The world's largest diamond was discovered in South Africa. This was shipped to England on a steamboat under heavy security, however it was only a diversion. The real stone was sent via post in a plain box. Did you know that naturally occurring diamonds are shaped over billions of years under powerful pressure and heat? These are often brought to the Earth's surface by deep volcanic eruptions.
A series of myth revolve around the precious stone. These differ in each culture. Diamonds were believed to be the tears from the Gods by the Ancient people of Rome and Greek. Another belief is that a diamond could cure disease. This was believed by the middle Ages folks.
Your gameplay will begin on a bluish background with a fixed £10 stake. The game will begin once you click on the 'Buy Card' button. A special effect will occur before the 'Buy Card' button is altered to the 'Reveal' button. Clicking on it will wipe each panel one by one. The total prize won will be displayed on a popup. You will also have the 'Other Cards' option, which will enable you to choose the other three Scratch 4 games from the series. You can also wipe each panel to uncover the displayed prize.
The first panel will award £50 when you reveal a '4' from 6 given digits. Panel 2 can award £10, £20, £50, £100, £200, £500, £1,000, £5,000, £10,000, £50,000 or £250,000 when the number 4 is uncovered as the result of one of 2 simple math sums. Getting any 3 similar symbols from a set of 9 symbols in a 3x3 grid in Panel 3 can award £10, £50, £100, £1,000, £10,000 or £250,000. Landing any 3 similar values from a set of 9 values will award £10, £20, £50, £100, £200, £500, £1,000, £5,000, £10,000, £50,000 or £250,000 on Panel 4. The win is awarded for values in a 3x3 grid.
A special feature you will find on Scratch 4 Diamonds is a prize value multiplier. You will have a pre-determined chance of seizing a prize on winning cards. Once a winning card is complete, the multiplier is triggered at random. In the event that you get a multiplier, this will appear on the popup. The safe located between panels 1 and 2 will open to reveal a multiplier value. This will be multiplied by the existing value displayed to award a final win value.

Politics again – sorry! In Britain we are currently having a national debate about Democracy. This was triggered by the comedian Russell Brand, who in an interview stated that all politicians are the same and there's no point voting:
"Like most people I regard politicians as frauds and liars and the current political system as nothing more than a bureaucratic means for furthering the augmentation and advantages of economic elites."
But that is not a fact. It is an opinion. That is precisely why we have Democracy.
For Brand, who believes there is no point voting, then not voting is the right course of action, whereas people who disagree with Brand should vote.
But Brand goes further. Since there is nobody he wants to vote for, he calls for a Revolution instead:
"Revolt in whatever way we want, with the spontaneity of the London rioters, with the certainty and willingness to die of religious fundamentalists or with the twinkling mischief of the trickster."
Brand's call for a Revolution is not a threat to Democracy – it is an illustration of the right to free speech that is an intrinsic part of Democracy. Brand is seemingly oblivious to the irony that Revolutions invariably take away this right to free speech and open debate.
Regular readers of this blog will know that I too am discontented with Democracy, but on more theoretical grounds rather than being generally pissed off, like Brand. But a Revolution? That's the worst possible solution you could ever think of.
Democracy: System of government where a majority imposes its will on a minority by means of the law.
Revolution: System of government where a minority imposes its will on a majority by means of killing anyone who argues.

What is the Mask of Pregnancy?
During pregnancy, hormonal shifts in the female body can have a variety of results that affect appearance. The mask of pregnancy, also called chloasma or melasma, is a common result of excess melanin production associated with pregnancy hormones. Portions of the facial skin darken, giving a heavily freckled appearance that may resemble a mask. Treatment for the mask of pregnancy is often held off until after the pregnancy ends, to prevent harm to the baby and also to ensure that hormones do not simply cause the mask to reoccur.
Not every pregnant woman will develop the mask of pregnancy; experts have linked an increase in its occurrence due to certain circumstances. Women with darker skin are more likely to experience signs of melasma than women with lighter skin, and the skin tone change may be greater. Heavy sun exposure is also associated with a greater risk of developing the mask of pregnancy. Many experts recommend wearing a hat or strong sunscreen to avoid increased potential for melasma development.
The condition is also not only confined to pregnant women. Experts suggest that women taking hormonal contraceptives, such as the pill, the patch, or hormonal shots, can also develop the condition. The mask of pregnancy is caused by changes to hormonal levels of estrogen in the body; women taking hormonal contraceptives may develop melasma as a result of the estrogen in their medication.
To treat this condition during pregnancy, many experts recommend using topical medications that reduce hyperpigmentation and may lighten skin somewhat. Some suggest checking with an obstetrician before undergoing even topical treatments, as certain ingredients might be harmful to pregnancy. For the most part, medical experts suggest that laser treatments and glycolic peels should be avoided while pregnant. If skin discoloration is minimal, consider using a multi-shade concealer and foundation in order to even out skin tone cosmetically.
If the discoloration continues after giving birth or the condition is not a result of pregnancy, some advanced treatment options do exist. In the United States, the Food and Drug Administration has approved the Fraxel® laser to treat the mask of pregnancy with only a short recovery time. Some experts also recommend glycolic peels to reduce color distinction. In many women, the mask of pregnancy will largely fade on its own once hormonal levels return to normal; if symptoms do not dissipate, consider visiting a dermatologist to determine the nature of the condition and best treatment plans for the individual case.

2000 Subaru Outback Bad Timing Belt Install
When my Barn Yard Mechanic Replaced my timing belt on my 2000 Subaru Outback. He
never lined up the white line on the timing belt with the crankshaft, only lining up the
cams. The car runs a little ruff , not as good as when I dropped it off. I was told that the
white line is to line up the crank shaft and to forget about any other marks on the belt.Do I
need to redo ?
20 Answers
What were you lookin for exactly in the barn yard ? a goose?
You compare to the correct drawing in the manual, or take it to a dairy.
Then you can have a cow the whole time.
When the cam wheels are at their set spot, enough revolutions have taken place for the belt stripes to align with them, The crankshaft gear lines up with a notch on the engine front cover behind it viewed from the front standing just towards the passenger side of the hood latch, you see it very well. difficult to describe so pics and drawings from the manual help. you must remove the covers for access. Then theprocedure can begin of inspecting all the parts for wear and problems of failing or soon to fail. a car that age may need a full kit to complete the job, the waterpump replaced with a subaru part is best, same with the thermostat. make sure the head gaskets are already updated. (or back dated) depends how you think about it. The tensioner is gas filled and requires a few tools and a reset procedure to compress and retain for reassembly. Some books skip around so be very attentive to what you read and what pics go with your make model year, and engine.
There are other engine settings and indicators for other purposes, do not confuse them with things you think that are not in the timing belt replacement drawings and procedure. Have a tech who has experience do it? or one who does engine work research and correct it. partsthat seem ok may spin at very high rpm making them more likely to be needed during this job if they were not new last job.
do everything to avoid overheat while it is apart, once. Replace belts now if they show wear. things you leave undone 'on the cheap' will fail before you need to repeat the labor, do them now. save several investments of time and worry as well as towing.
I know when I did the timing belts i had the water pump, the pulleys and the cam shaft seals and the serpentine belt replaced at the same time
You can stop repeat repairs by getting the subaru parts that fit and function best for your needs at an independent subaru repair shop. I helped a friend figure out a very expensive problem, ended up with fewer parts, subaru parts, reseal corrections, and procedure to follow different from the haynes manual or subaru info. costs less, less filling, tasted great.
we did use a china pump and it likes to ooze, I think the subaru part is much better made, you can tell just by putting the two side by side on the bench for comparison. If I was able to legally drive at the time I would have made just one more return and just one more purchase. research also found an update for the 2.5L we were working on and updated the tensioner boss for that engine. Was able to find subaru genuine parts online and get the piece and different bolts. As far as cylinder head bolts, the originals went back in on recommendation from the tech at the subaru specialist. saved $60 right there.
It's like a japanese mercedes, you do it at the right time, you do everything recommended, you do it the way they say, you replace everything they say regardless, and you dont have to worry touch it tow it or fret about it. just watch fluids and change oil till next major repair. and that is cheaper.
You can swing the engine left and right for access, but removing it was best for access to clean and inspect, couldnt bend over or crouch or stand on the cement for over an hour and had to clean the engine bay from oil leakage. removal made it accessible over a week and a half's time of an hour here and an hour there while taking medication and going to the doctor. the car worked great after that and she still hates me.
Ironman60 - are any of these suggestions helping you , how about a little feedback? My advice to you is this; before damaging your engine and valves, consider the possibility that your friend is not qualified to do this job and you'd be better off taking your car to an independent garage where a professional can do this right and get you back on the road with your car working perfectly. Yes, it's not as cheap, but, you've got an investment in the car. Just how long has this person been puttering around trying to get this done?
some things are better left to a professional mechanic. i do a lot of my own work but if it is someone else car and if it is something I have not done with my own vehicles I would suggest they go to a mechanic ( i never get paid for doing things it is usually for a relative or friend and never guarantee my work and they know this up front sometime I get over my head and have to call a garage to come get it and repair it
Kinker, so, you agree with my assessment?
Are any of these suggestions saying the exact same thing from beginning to end? are they alluding to just that ? Is that not the thing for a person who is not a technician to conclude after you give them step by step, place for parts, where to ask, and where to look it up? No they dont want to go out to the barn and jab a screwdriver in some guys belly. they want to pay you !
Yes i do mark
does tommy know about this?
Redone runs fine. Easy Job if someone would have followed my instruction and lined the crank shaft up correctly with the timing mark the first time. Thanks for all the feedback.
Hence the 4th post. and the suggestions to the book references. The crank gear points at the engine front cover when the belt and the cam wheels are all at their places. They were like that in the 1980's when people brought them to the ford dealer because they could not find anyone, we had to do them there. Same designers all this time. after you roll several revolutions it ends back at the same place. The painted line wears off and rechecking, you can still see the ones for the cam wheels .For those who read this after us. Good work.
Now put all the tools back where you took them from, thank you.

Breaking 100/90/80
Pick Your Path To Maximum Power
Todd Anderson, the 2010 PGA Teacher of the Year, shows how to improve your driving power, whatever your handicap level.
February 25, 2013
Most golfers think to bomb it off the tee they have to swing faster, but speed at the expense of solid contact doesn't do any good. The first step to maximizing power is to strike the ball with the center of the clubface; that gives you an efficient transfer of energy at impact. Once you can do that, you can start working on adding speed.Skill level is a good starting point. The 100-shooter needs to focus mainly on hitting the ball solidly. The golfer trying to break 90 also has contact issues but can start to develop power. Better players already hit it flush, so they can work on synchronizing their body action. Whatever your level, get your power tips here.TODD ANDERSON, the 2010 PGA Teacher of the Year, is the director of instruction at Sea Island Golf Club, St. Simons Island, Ga.

how soon did you find your dress- am i hasty!
i have found my dress already and i have 17 mths to go!!! do you think i should shop around a bit more?
LYNNIuk Posts: 1,046Errrrm I found my dress last year within a week of being engaged. Only went shopping to see what it felt like to be wearing a wedding gown and an engagement ring! It was 3rd or 4th I tried, I had abit of a look around, but this dress always crept into my mind and I couldnt stop comparing it to others.... Getting married in 2007, so I am in the same boat as you! My dress deposit is now paid for; my dress, shoes and tiara have been ordered0
lucindasharrock Posts: 187I am a nightmare to go shopping with cos I would never buy the first dress I see. Personally I would always hang on . If you think it is the right one, just take the name and style and ask them to contact you if it being discontinued but I would probably just hand ona bit longer and shop around. You have got plenty of ytime. Don't let them fool you with that 12months crap about ordering - you need about 4 months.0
karenng Posts: 77Ah well....my date is in October this year and still haven't found one so not really the right advice from me. I was told at least 6 months so the next few months will be a bit hectic!0
craftycharli Posts: 3,175I would definitely keep that dress in mind but you don't need to order it andything like right now so maybe continue to have a look - after all it gives you an excuse to get into more dresses and then maybe by the end of the summer if that is still the one you dream of and can't get out of your head then go for it but since there is no rush take your time!0
hi kel ive found my dress and ordered it in march we went shopping one monday (mom) just to have a look just to get a feel of things, u know!! tried a few dresses on went to another shop berketex? (dont know whats happening there people keep saying they r shutting down?) anyway tried a few more on then wow it was the 1 had to have it! we dont get married till aug 07? so when u find the 1 thats it!0
yeah i think you right you no dont you? well i am keeping a open mind but a ihavent been looking at all.0
elliotluk Posts: 250I went with my mum in jan to look at dresses, i fell in love with one tried it on then paid my deposit. i never tried on another one. I cant stop dreaming about (good ones) you know when its the one. im getting married in may next year0
bride1 Posts: 1,664antonia6 i got mine from berketex whats yours like? x0
sorry kel2 havent been on 4 a while cant remember the name and my mom wont let me have the picture of it in case i show anyone, its a 2 piece, basque as lovely details and ties at the back the skirt is like chiffon with 2 draping flowers on the side oh ye and its gold! had the tiara from there 2 (wolverhampton) its lovely its hard to say what there like whe u try 2 describe them? whats urs like kel2? xxx0
SharonButler2whitbreadcom Posts: 529Hi girls - I think once you know it is the one - get it! They always say that everything hinges on the wedding dress - the bridesmaid dresses - the flowers, the theme, the colour scheme - and I think they are right! I tried on loads but just knew when I saw it - and it makes me happy inside just thinking about my dress. I'm not getting married until June 2007 - but I know that whatever else I need to plan - I have my dress!!0
rebeccawhiteuk Posts: 84I'm getting married in October and went for a look at dresses a fortnight ago and ended up buying one. It was at the first shop and is only costing £230 altogether as is not a traditional wedding dress but is classed as a prom dress but is absolutely gorgeous. I got it from a small independent store which specialises in wedding and prom dresses and the service I got was amazing and for the same price they are altering it and adding all the details (such as schwarski crystal beading). It also includes a wrap that goes with the dress.0
mrsdallas2be Posts: 86Antonia - sounds like I am almost purchasing the same dress as you - although Iam just going for the corset top and going to get the skirt made spearately. It's such a lovely colour. I think it's the one for me I keep gpong back to it and have tried it on 4 times already and compare everything else to it!!!!0
hi mrsdallas2be i think exactly the same nothing else has come close to it i look at the ones in the mags and there is nothing like it! we obviously have excellent taste!!!!0
