Smart Magnetic Paint Questions & Top Tips
Welcome to the FAQs for Smarter Surfaces' Magnetic Paint. Below we have outlined the answers to the most commonly asked questions. Remember that you can combine our Magnetic Paint together with our Whiteboard Paint to get a writable magnetic surface. Check out the Combine With section below to learn more
How To Apply Magnetic Paint
Smart Magnetic Paint can be applied by roller onto any smooth surface. Once dry, the surface can be painted over to conceal the grey color (due to the magnetic properties in the paint).
How do I apply Smart Magnetic Paint?
Priming & Sealing
Should you prime walls before applying Smart Magnetic Paint?Only very absorbent surfaces should be treated with a primer before application.
Why should I apply primer after applying Smart Magnetic Paint?Primers help give a surface a smooth finish. Primers are also used to conceal the grey color (due to the magnetic particles) of our magnetic paint.
Suitable Surfaces
Can Magnetic Paint be applied on any surface?Smart Magnetic Paint can be applied to almost any smooth surface. For best results, sand and fill areas as required.
How to thin out thick magnetic paintIn most cases your magnetic paint should not need to be thinned. From time to time, during transportation, the magnetic paint can settle. If you need to thin the paint to help during application, add 10% water to the tin and stir in thoroughly.
How To Use Magnetic Paint
Magnetic surfaces are typically used for planning, scheduling, posting, brainstorming, magnetic notice boards, magnetic walls plus lots more.
For best results, we recommend using neodymium magnets or strong rare earth magnets with your smart magnetic surface.

Interested in a combined surface with both magnetic and whiteboard functionality? Check out our double and triple functionality products here.
What type of magnets can be used with Smart Magnetic Paint?Neodymium or rare earth magnets should be used. Check out our Smart Neo Magnets here.
Note: ordinary household magnets are not suitable.
Product Range
Is there clear magnetic paint available?Our magnetic products include Smart Magnetic Paint (50% magnetite), Super Magnetic Paint (60% magnetite) and Smart Magnetic Plaster (67% magnetite).
Due to the magnetic particles, magnetic paint is mid-grey in color. However you can achieve the color of your choice by painting over the magnetic coating with normal paint. We recommend applying a white water based primer (such as Smart White Primer) before applying your desired color.
Alternately install a wallpaper or digital print in the pattern or design of your choice, on top of magnetic paint. We recommend you choose a thin product to go on top, as a thicker / deeper topcoat might affect magnetic performance.
Are there different sizes available?Smart Magnetic Paint is available in a 32 sq. feet amd a 107 sq. feet tin.
Kit Contents
Smart Magnetic Paint 32ft² kit includes: Smart Magnetic Paint (750ml to cover 32ft² with 3 coats), 2 Smart Neo Magnets, Application Guide.

Full health & safety guidelines are printed on the label of every Smarter Surfaces product. Please read these before application.
Does magnetic paint affect WIFI signals?No, WIFI works as normal when surrounded by our magnetic paints and plaster.

Schultz, David Earl Scroggins (18 Jun 1949 - 16 Jan 2015) [53845:P].
Son of Scroggin, Elbert Arl (12 Oct 1924 -30 Dec 1950 ) [39541:P] [FaG:82216109].
Lake County Record-Bee, David Earl Schultz, 21 Jan 2015 [Legacy]
(Updated 23 Jan 2015).
David Earl Schultz
June 18, 1949 - January16, 2015
David was born June 18, 1949, in Lakeport, CA, to his parents, Patricia Lee McIntire [53859:P] and Elbert Earl Scroggins [39541:P]. When his father passed away, David was adopted by Robert Schultz. Partially raised on the McIntire Ranch, he would help his grandparents work on the ranch he dearly loved. In David's pre-teen years he was very active in 4-H. He raised steers from the Holdenried Ranch, but his favorite 4-H project was his pig, Gaylord. David attended Clear Lake High School and graduated in 1967. Soon after, David joined the Navy and served in San Diego. After the Navy, he moved to Sonoma County and worked for Sonoma County Social Services where he met and married Carmen Schultz, a colleague, and embraced her daughter, Julia Arteaga as his own. They had two other children, Christopher and Sarah Schultz. He and his family moved from Rohnert Park to Lakeport where he worked for Unocal at the Geysers. He was a loving, doting father and family was his number one priority. He was very much involved in all his children's activities and school work. He took his family on yearly camping trips to Rice Creek, snow skiing in Tahoe, and coached his children's soccer, baseball, and football teams. David was an athletic man, an avid golfer and generally loved all sports, but especially relished baseball as he coached and played in adult leagues. Politically astute, David appreciated political discussions and was a trivia buff; ask him any question and he had an answer. David was truly an incredible man; his witty humorous personality was loved by all and will truly be missed. He is survived by his loving wife of 28 years, Carmen Schultz; daughter, Julia Arteaga (Marc Carithers); two grandchildren, Maya Carithers and Philodice Schultz; his sisters, Linda (Mike) Fullerton, and Jackie (Teddy) Rodrigues; also, nieces and nephews. David is reunited with his son, Christopher Schultz, daughter, Sarah Schultz, and his mother and father. We love you David, give them a kiss from us. "Stronger than dirt." Memorial service will be at 10 a.m., Saturday, January 24, 2015, at Chapel of the Lakes Mortuary, Lakeport.

WASHINGTON • Investigators are examining possible computer breaches at as many as 12 banks that have irregularities similar to those in the theft of US$81 million (S$111.5 million) from the Bangladesh central bank, according to a person familiar with the probe.
The institutions are all linked to Swift's global payments network.
FireEye, the security firm hired by the Bangladesh bank, has been contacted by the other banks, most of which are in South-east Asia, the person said. They include banks in the Philippines and New Zealand but not in Western Europe or the United States. There is no indication of whether money was taken.
The expansion of the investigation four months after the discovery of the Bangladesh attack, the biggest known cyberheist in history, suggests a broad and serious campaign to breach the international financial system. FireEye declined to comment on the report.
Swift said in a statement: "The emergence of new possible instances of compromise is not entirely surprising, given that banks should now be undertaking rigorous reviews of their environments.
"Many may turn out to be false positives... but it is key that these reviews take place and banks' environments are secured."
Many may turn out to be false positives... but it is key that these reviews take place and banks' environments are secured.
SWIFT, in a written statement on the international financial breaches linked to its global payment network.
Swift has come under increasing pressure from its bank customers to ratchet up its security measures to prevent future cyber robberies.
In the Bangladesh case, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York was tricked by fake Swift messages into wiring money it held for the country to hacker-controlled accounts in the Philippines. The Fed's systems halted an additional US$850 million the attackers tried to obtain.
Hackers also stole US$12 million from an Ecuadorean bank in January last year, and tried but failed to move about US$1.2 million from a Vietnamese lender.
The interbank cooperative, whose full name is the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication, has warned that there may have been more breaches than the three already publicly identified.
Hackers may have targeted even more banks, Swift chief executive Gottfried Leibbrandt said this week, in a speech outlining plans to improve network and client defences. He did not provide any details about which banks may have been targeted or whether their defences had been breached.
"Banks that are compromised like this can be put out of business," said Mr Leibbrandt.
He added that Swift, which connects 11,000 financial institutions that send about 25 million messages a day, will try to increase information sharing among clients, raise security requirements for the software they use, and help them conduct security audits.


text: This elegant Victorian was originally owned by attorney Josiah Funk in the 1800s and later became home to a woman's club,and now is in private hands and is used as a meeting place for weddings,receptions and the like.Of all the types of architecture ,the Victorian style always seems to capture my imagination with its intricate woodwork and fancy construction. I recently purchased a camranger wi-fi box for my camera and a tablet to shoot this type of subject. In the past I would have to walk up on the porch,light the scene and walk back to the camera to check the exposure,etc each time. Now the camranger sends a wi-fi signal from the camera to my tablet and I can stay on the porch and get real-time views of the shots and then I can adjust without all the walking.The camranger is possibly the best piece of equipment I have purchased in a long time. Shown in the bottom photo is my setup which shows the scene captured by the camera and displayed on the tablet,which is carried by me as I light the scene.The camranger is the little white box on my camera grip.

The remastered 2-CD set includes the previously unreleased original demo recording of Love Is A Highway, from which grew the career-defining single Life Is A Highway, and also a 1992 concert performance from Chicago which features key tracks from the album alongside Red Rider classics.

Cochrane celebrated this milestone anniversary on October 28 in Calgary, where an exhibition of his musical work was unveiled at the National Music Centre ahead of its opening to the general public today. The never-at-rest artist also announced a cross-Canada tour through February and March of next year, with 21 dates on the calendar and more to be announced in the coming days.

Hi there! Thanks for visiting my little corner of the internet. My name is Deborah, and my husbands name is Josh (or the title of this blog would be quite strange). I spend my week days in an office, my evenings at home, and my weekends going on adventures.
I enjoy long walks on the beach… but who doesn't?!
In my free time I enjoy cooking, baking, crafting, blogging, curling up with a good book, watching movies/tv shows with my man, and playing board games. I am a child of God, and my life is devoted to following Jesus Christ.
Simply, I am Deborah. I have the privilege of being the most treasured girl in Josh's life… and I can't imagine life without him. Josh is my prince charming, my best friend, and I am stoked to share my life with him. This is the story of our journey together.

2016 Trends Hitting the Mainstream: Wearables, Machine Intelligence, and Data Visualization
I spend most of my time looking at how individuals access data, information, and knowledge in ways that allow them to make better decisions and to enjoy themselves. With that in mind, here are a few thoughts about some trends that I think will push demands on corporate IT departments and the IT industry broadly: wearables, machine intelligence, and data visualization.
If you look at most phones, tablets, and laptops, you see a continuing clumsy interaction between human and device. A phone flipping through the air as the user loses her handle on it is not a surprising event. Laptops crash to the ground, and there is a thriving industry in screen replacement. While watches do not seem to be the ideal solution, wearables will continue to grow. The gap between the appearance of the first handhelds and the development of truly usable handheld devices was probably 10-15 years. I think the elapsed time between the first wearables, which appeared about five years ago, and the mass-adopted ones is going to be much shorter. Intel is making significant acquisitions to ensure that it leads users out of the smartphone era, as it isn't a player in that market. Companies such as Garmin, Samsung, and Microsoft are also pushing very hard to grow the value of this market. So I believe we will see very significant advances in this segment due to market forces.
Many companies are still trying to work out their BYOD (bring your own device) policies, and wearables have the potential to ignite exponentially greater user-driven disruption. This will occur for a few reasons. One, a wearable is a more personal choice than any previous technology. Our clothes are key in creating our self-image. People will not want a smart coat but that smart coat — maybe from Donna Karan, but just as likely from that quirky little designer located in Soho. The allure of "smart" clothes will drive this market, and the confluence of design, technology, and manufacturability is nearing the point of critical mass. And every one of these devices will have the potential to create security issues that organizations will be challenged to address.
Machine intelligence can conjure up smart robots buying our food, driving it home themselves, and then, for good measure, cooking the meal. I'll be shocked if 2016 gives us that. However, I do see 2016 as the year where vast quantities of sensors building the Internet of Things will meet up with the ever-increasing amount of processing power we can apply to a specific place at a point of time. I expect that we will witness massive advances in worker safety that will combine wearables with the ability to sense dangerous situations and patterns faster than any human can reasonably do. As many of these settings relate to worker safety or directly to productivity, adoption will happen quickly once the business case is finalized.
Machine intelligence offers obvious benefits in situations like these: complex and rapidly changing environments where it is possible to measure many elements of the situation. As the situations occur repeatedly, we can train machine intelligence systems to recognize patterns and simplify complex environments for human action. The human will not be removed, but thousands of stimuli will be reduced to a manageable set of conditions.
Remember presentations with acetates or maybe 35 mm slides? Remember how quickly PowerPoint replaced these as a standard for professional presentations? This past year has seen the release of fantastic tools for data visualization, but perhaps even more importantly, informative and captivating examples of the use of data visualization to inform audiences. Examples are FusionCharts, Datawrapper, and Leaflet, along with offerings from stalwarts Google and Microsoft. Senior executives can use these tools to explain the complex business environments within which their companies are operating. Analyst teams can use them to trigger discussions about previously underappreciated facts. Pictures are great for helping humans recognize patterns and identify trends and outliers (think of how the simple but powerful scatter plot can show both of these). As these types of presentations become more common, the demand for IT departments to support the tools, and underlying databases, will grow rapidly. 2016 looks like the year where these powerful visualization tools could make the jump from unusual to common.
These three trends come to my mind for simple reasons:
- The basic technologies, processes, and capabilities exist. They are still relatively experimental, but thousands of trials are running. We are learning quickly, and all that is missing is for the learning to become complete enough.
- Each trend allows us to simplify our lives. Wearables integrate into how we work. What if we did not have to remember our smartphones? Instead, we'd just get dressed, and whatever we wore would connect us to our information, like Peanuts' Pigpen was connected tohis cloud behind him? Machine intelligence can take a tsunami of information and turn it into a few clear islands of information. Data visualization lets us more easily see the important rather than be overwhelmed by streams of the usual. These trends bring "easy."
- The benefits of each trend are obvious. Convenience, reduced mental complexity, and improved insight clearly connect to our jobs and ourdesire to work smarter, better, and in a more interesting way.
It boils down to a complete and easy win. And really that's always why we've seen successful technologies take off. Their benefit is obvious, they're easy to understand, and they're compatible with how we want to work. For these reasons, wearables, machine intelligence, and data visualization are well positioned to transition into the mainstream and the daily lives of corporate IT departments in 2016.

About Miiayson
Any game genres you would like to see more of?
Miiayson replied to Miiayson's topic in General Chat@Martinsx1 I agree with you about Final Fantasy, I think it's a good series. I used to play a lot of Final Fantasy, and have maintained my interest in it over the years. I'm very enthusiastic about Final Fantasy 15, and I'm looking forward to the release of the FF7 remake as well. I like that 15 is an action game, a bit of a change in pace from the usual turn-based fare. It makes me wonder how Square Enix will tackle the FF7 remake's battle system, since the original was turn based, and real time combat is usually preferred over turn based nowadays.
Games you like that don't look too great
Miiayson replied to Miiayson's topic in Gaming DiscussionIt's bad when a game consistently lags during gameplay. I heard that in a version of a game I like, Final Fantasy Tactics, there's a bug where certain attacks cause really bad slowdown. I'm going to have to take your word for it about Red Alert, since I'm not familiar with the Red Alert series. I had to Google it to remember it. I am familiar with the soundtrack though, I think specifically from Red Alert: Command and Conquer.
Favorite Video Game Music?
Miiayson posted a topic in Gaming DiscussionI've been listening to a lot of Final Fantasy music lately, and am really enjoying the soundtracks, especially Final Fantasy 7. I think Uematsu has a talent for making catchy unique tunes that help prop up and define the game's unique story and atmosphere. I can listen to certain types of video game music all day, the same way other people can listen to normal radio music. Are there any video game soundtracks or specific songs that you like listening to?
Are you a hardcore gamer or just enough?
Miiayson replied to mitan143's topic in Gaming DiscussionEven though I don't play anywhere near as much as I used to, I still consider myself a hardcore gamer at heart. I used to spend a lot of time playing video games, but I don't do that so much any more. When I first started, I would spend about five hours a day playing. Since then, other things have replaced that habit. Something I'd like to do this summer is invest a lot of time into getting good at a couple of specific games that I like that are played competitively.
Games you like that don't look too great
Miiayson posted a topic in Gaming DiscussionGameplay is king, if PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds is any indication. A game can come to be generally viewed as fun, and have relatively unremarkable looks. Even still, it's true that a lacking presentation can get a fun game in trouble. People give Capcom's latest entry in the iconic Versus series, Marvel vs. Capcom Infinite, a lot of flack, and that game has suffered for it (it's widely rumored that Capcom will stop supporting it soon), but most people who've played it and give it flack still feel the gameplay is top notch. That said, are there any old or new games you like that you feel aren't visually impressive?
Does anybody here play Minecraft as a college student?
Miiayson replied to TheGreatShark's topic in MinecraftI used to be into it a lot about a couple of years ago, but I don't really pay attention to it that much anymore, not at all actually. I think it's a game that you can play, leave it alone for awhile and if you come back to it you can still enjoy it.
What game are you playing currently
Miiayson replied to Martinsx1's topic in General ChatI've been working on playing Dark Souls for awhile now, but it is taking me longer to get through it than I initially thought it would. I watch a lot of Let's Plays on YouTube so I guess that makes me feel like I'm playing games. I end up not putting in time playing my own games because I'm so interested in watching other gameplay.
Miiayson changed their profile photo
Any game genres you would like to see more of?
Miiayson posted a topic in General ChatIn today's gaming market certain genres have made a resurgence, especially in the indie scene. There are a lot of genres that were kind of a product of their time but were none-the-less solid and would benefit from further iterations and modern technology. Personally I'm very happy to see that a lot of fighting games have come out in the past few years. Are there any particular genres, old-school or just uncommon, that you'd like to see more of?
*lose interest
Sometimes I've stopped playing a game because I've lost or misplaced a game, for one reason or the other. Some games I've stopped playing because after I bought the game, I'll play it for a little while, and then loose interest. There are only so many hours in the day, and certain activities take more time than others, so sometimes my gaming has to take a backseat. Not often though.
Some Gaming Tips
Miiayson replied to Superman2727's topic in General ChatIn video game play, as in all things, some people do have a natural talent for it straight out of the gate, while others seem to have to work really hard on it. Honestly, I think that if you dive into something and don't find a hook, it may not be for you, at least not at that time. A crucial tool in modern games is the ability to record and re-watch your own gameplay, as well as picking up techniques from the pros. This way you can pick apart your own actions and identify strengths and weaknesses. Everyone's brain works different. Not every game is for everybody. There are certain things some people may just be unable to do mentally, or even physically, especially in the case of more high-paced, decision intensive competitive games, like fighting games, where 1/60 of a second and a single pixel can be the difference between winning and losing. I think improving in games is the same for anything else: start off by finding at least one small thing you really like about the game you've chosen to play that you're able to get into and improve on. Try to get a feel for how to perform that action, create that situation, recapture that moment you really liked at one point. This is where recording your own gameplay can come in too, figuring out what it was that you did or experienced that you liked, and zeroing in on that.

George Kittle and 49ers Reportedly 'Far Apart' in Contract Talks
George Kittle may be the best tight end in football and it's only right that he be paid accordingly. But receiving top tight-end money reportedly won't cut it for Kittle, who remains "far apart" in contract negotiations with the 49ers.
"They are not close at all," reported NFL Network's Mike Silver on Friday. "There were some preliminary talks back in February, nothing for the last couple months." Silver said if the Niners think they can pay Kittle like a tight end, they better think again. "He is their No. 1 target, so important in that locker room and clearly he is doing something that transcends what a typical tight end does."
Drafted 146th overall in 2017, the Iowa alum has quickly established himself as one of the league's premier tight ends, leading his team in receiving each of the past two seasons. Kittle, who broke Rob Gronkowski's tight-end record for receiving yards (1,377) in just his second professional season, is as versatile and well-rounded as any player in the NFL. In addition to garnering ProFootballFocus' top receiving grade among tight ends last year, the 26-year-old also earned the second-highest run-blocking marks at his position, finishing runner-up to Arizona's Maxx Williams in that category.
More importantly, Kittle was the offensive catalyst for a resurgent Niners squad that fought Patrick Mahomes and the high-powered Chiefs to the bitter end in Super Bowl LIV. Kittle's $2.2-million base salary for 2020, the final year of his rookie deal, ranks 42nd among tight ends, trailing the underwhelming likes of MyCole Pruitt (six catches last year), Levine Toilolo (his 49ers backup in 2019) and Lee Smith (combined 60-423-8 receiving line over nine NFL seasons), among others.
Clearly Kittle is deserving of a substantial, market-setting raise and San Francisco should have the cap space to accommodate him, particularly if Richard Sherman ($14-million cap hit) walks in free agency next offseason. Silver has also acknowledged Kittle "wants to be" a Niner long term. So what's the hold up?
"This is a difficult situation because during a pandemic, owners are not super eager to shell out massive deals," Silver posited as one of the reasons contract talks have stalled between Kittle and the reigning NFC Champs. "There's a lot of uncertainty."
Speaking to 95.7 The Game last month, GM John Lynch was adamant the fourth-year tight end isn't "going anywhere." The 49ers could apply the franchise tag next offseason if Kittle's camp doesn't budge, though the former fifth-round pick could exercise his leverage by holding out. However it shakes out, the Niners know they'll have to pay the piper—and handsomely at that.

by George Orwell
If you last read Orwell back in high school and vaguely remember struggling through the political implications of assigned texts Animal Farm or 1984, you might be reluctant to pick up Burmese Days.
Don't be! This fictional account of John Flory, a white British officer sent to an outpost of the empire in Burma, is extremely readable.
It follows Flory and his friendship with an Indian, Dr Veraswami, who wants to join the all-white social club and focal point of the tiny and rather tiresome expatriate community in the fictional town of Kyauktada. The town was actually Katha, today found 12 hours' north of Mandalay by train in the Sagaing Region, where Orwell served in the Indian Imperial Police force in the 1920s.
Published in 1934 -- it was his first novel -- Orwell draws on his own experience and what's so striking, perhaps, is how the uncomfortable echoes of that time still reverberate today among some expatriate circles in the region. While race and economic power are the obvious themes, the backdrop is a beautiful but ravaged Burma. A vaguely Austen feel permeates the romantic sub-plot; the ending is devastating.

As you can see, marijuana violations are quite complex in Virginia and most, if not all, attract heavy penalties. How you choose to fight the marijuana charges you are facing, will depend on 3 main factors, the seriousness or extent of the charge, the strength of the state's case against you, as well as whether it's a first or a subsequent charge. Generally, you usually have 3 options, apply for the state's first offender program, argue for a dismissal of the charges, or take a plea deal in exchange for a smaller or lower sentence. If you are facing marijuana possession or distribution charges, you need to talk to a Glen Allen VA possession of marijuana attorney. Whether it's a misdemeanor or a felony, an experienced criminal defense attorney will evaluate the facts and circumstances of your case, and then advise you on the best course of action to pursue.
Virginia First Offender Program
If you have been charged with marijuana possession or distribution in Virginia, you might be eligible for the state's first offender program. Under this program, your marijuana possession charges will be dismissed, as long as you comply with the program's set of conditions. To qualify for this program, you must plead guilty to the charges you are facing. As a condition, you have to submit to regular drug testing and be ready to remain alcohol and drug-free, during the entire period of the program.
Also, you will be required by the court to pay all or part of the program costs, depending on your financial capabilities. Furthermore, you have to complete at least 100 hours of community service if it's a felony or 24 hours for a misdemeanor. And if the court doesn't revoke or suspend your driver's license, then you have to complete 50 additional hours of community service. As noted earlier, if you complete the program successfully, then the marijuana possession or distribution charges will be dismissed. On the other hand, if you violate any of the terms of the program or even fail to complete it, then you be found guilty and convicted.
It's important to note that even if the charges will be dismissed, it doesn't mean that the court will expunge them from your criminal record. They will remain there and they will always show up whenever someone conducts a background check on you.Also, if you are not a U.S citizen, a dismissal of marijuana possession charges through the 251 program can lead to deportation. Therefore, don't rush to join the deferred disposition program. Instead, you should first talk to a Glen Allen VA possession of marijuana attorney. A skilled criminal defense attorney will examine your case and then advise you whether you should join the 251 program or not.

"The Wanderer"
Title track 'The Wanderer' is the opening track. It is a really jolly song that gets your feet tapping instantly. Its about a man making no plans and just travelling the world.
'Write Me A Song' is a ballad about how to write a song and how the words just don't come to mind. I really like this song's harmonies. They give this song a really distinctive sound. It reminds me of a sea shanty and for some reason it conjures up a picture of Cornish fishermen singing together on the harbour wall whilst repairing their nets.
'Stone Girl Mary' is a fossil collector who sells them to earn a living. This song has a really lovely guitar instrumental. The guitar used for the solo in this song has the most gorgeous tone to it.
'News' highlights the story of sensationalist journalism and how the journalists have no conscience as long as their bills are paid. Attention grabbing headlines are the order of the day.
'Please Take My Blues Away' is another uptempo number. He is trying to get the girl. She would make his day if she fell in love with him. A very relatable song as we have all been in this position at one time or another.
'My Recovery Crew' is a beautiful heartfelt song. Its about when you are feeling stressed and down, there is that one person you turn to, to make things feel better. The introduction of piano in the chorus fills out the overall sound nicely and it has a lovely instrumental. This is one of my favourite songs on the album.

You don't have to donate, it's not a requirement of being a forum member. You're not expected to donate, after all this is a free forum and the fact that you're prepared to share your knowledge with other members is a bonus to us all.
The time I spend working on and maintaining this forum is done because I choose to do so, I enjoy it, I like to see others enjoying it and I like to see everyone benefiting from it in some way. However, there are financial costs involved, the biggest being the annual hosting fee, then of course there is the cost of keeping the name registered, and in this day and age of ever increasing charges, fees, bills and the general cost of living the spare cash is somewhat stretched at times. If you choose to make a donation, your money will be put towards the running costs of the forum.
If you choose not to donate, no problem just carry on enjoying it because your knowledge and the fact that you're prepared to share it is payment enough and I'd like to thank you for taking part.

Well I'll admit...I'm lazy when it comes to getting into a tanning bed, even during the summer time (And I own a tanning bed)! But with all the talk and concern about tanning in a tanning bed or even tanning outside, it's just not safe to use the bed anymore. With the fear of Melanoma and Cancer, it's just a scary thing to set foot (or body) into a tanning bed.
That is why I was happy to get the opportunity to try out Therma Labs Glow 2 Go Tanning Towelettes. I don't have to worry about constantly tanning until I get my desired look. With the Glow 2 Go Tanning Towelettes, you can achieve your Glow, safely and without the harsh orange look. This box comes with not 6, not 10, but 20 Towelettes compared to other brands.
I first used the towelettes today, about an hour ago. I will admit, when I first opened the package, I was expecting to see a towelette covered in at least, some type of color....I didn't. As a matter of fact, these towelettes looked clear, just like a baby's wipe. After I buffed my legs real good and patted them dry, I ran a tanning cloth over them. I didn't really see a big difference and I didn't see any of the tanning solution on my hands from using them. I then began going over my whole body with the tanning towelette and eventually had to grab another one, as the first one was no longer damp.
The instructions that I received with the Glow 2 Go tanning towelettes did state: That it reacts to each persons amino acids in the body to get the natural looking glow and if you wanted to deepen or enhance the color, wait 4 hours and apply another towelette. According to Therma Labs your tone should peak in a few days. After you've reached your tone, then begin using 1 to 2 towelettes every two to three days to maintain. Therma Labs also states that 1 in 1,000 may not see results, therefore, they will give you a full refund of the product if for any reason you are not satisfied. Sooooo...it looks like I will have to wait a couple more days to see my result, although I did see a very faint hint of color.
BEFORE the towelette
AFTER the towelette
2 hours later
You will NOT get a dark tanned look the very minute you use these. That is why Therma Labs designed these to gradually build your tone, so you don't get that unnatural and bronzy orange look. After you've reached your tone, your color should last up to two weeks. It is recommended that you do not shave within 24 hours before using these towelettes and that you scrub and exfoliate your skin for the best results. Once applied, you need to wait at least 10 minutes before getting dressed.
These towelettes are so EASY and CONVENIENT to use! I love the fact that you don't instantly get that tanned look, as you want it to gradually grow on you, just as if you were going to a tanning salon. AND....the best part...I'M DOING A GIVEAWAY! Yes, I will be doing a giveaway, to one lucky winner. If you want that healthy natural tanned glow, enter the giveaway below.
To Purchase: Glow2Go Tanning Towelettes

GIVEAWAY: begins Tuesday, 12:00 am (January 13) and will end Tuesday, 12:00 am (January 27). The winner will be announced, no later than January 30, 2015. The Glow 2 Go tanning towelettes will be shipped, by the company, on February 10, 2015. Please allow 2-3 weeks for delivery before contacting me or the company. If you do not receive your package after waiting 2-3 weeks, please let me know and I will do my best to contact the company and help solve this problem.

Most of those who have distanced themselves from the articles by Alessandro Gnocchi and Mario Palmaro published in "Il Foglio" have limited themselves to a condemnation in principle, but they avoid going deeper into the matters touched on by the two Catholic writers. And yet the issues raised by Gnocchi and Palmaro, do not only express the discomfort of many, but highlight a series of problems that go beyond the person of Pope Francis and invest the past fifty years in the life of the Church.
The same writers brought these problems to light in a book which did not receive the attention it deserved: La Bella addormentata. [Sleeping Beauty. Why the Church went into crisis after Vatican II. Why She will awaken.]. The "Sleeping Beauty" is the Bride of Christ, which in Her Divine aspect maintains Her beauty, unaltered, but seems to be immersed in a deep sleep. In Her human aspect, Her countenance is disfigured by a disease which would appear mortal, if we did not know that immortality has been promised to Her.
The illness that the Church is suffering from has its beginnings in the distant past and exploded at the Second Vatican Council, whose 50th anniversary is being commemorated this year. Vatican II, which opened on October 11, 1963, was a pastoral Council, devoid, by explicit declaration, of voluntas definiendi, i.e. the intention of defining dogmatic truths in a formal manner.
Nonetheless, this pastoral aspect, had an anomalous quality, as the philosopher Paolo Pasqualucci outlines in a book recently published (Cattolici in alto i cuori! Battiamoci senza paura per la rinascita della Chiesa[Catholics lift up your hearts! Let us fight without fear for the rebirth of the Church], Fede e Cultura, Verona 2013). In fact, Vatican II did not limit [itself] to expressing traditional doctrine in a "new way" , but in some points, wanted also to teach "new things". None of these novelties, were given the seal of dogmatic definition, but overall they constitute a true and real magisterium, which was presented as an alternative to the traditional one.
In the name of Vatican II, the innovators expected to reform ab imis the whole Church. In order to achieve this goal, they moved, above all, along the lines of praxis, in other words, of pastoral application, and, by activating it, made it into doctrine. It is not by chance, that Giuseppe Alberigo and his disciples from the " School of Bologna " see in "the pastoral" , the constitutional dimension of Vatican II. In the name of "the spirit of the Council", sent forth by its pastoral aspect, the "Bolognesi" were opposed to "the reform in continuity" advocated by Benedict XVI and now today they welcome with enthusiasm the ministry of Pope Francis.
Benedict XVI exposed the heart of his thesis in two discourses which open and close his pontificate and offer a guiding thread: the first to the Roman Curia on December 22, 2005 and the other to the Roman Clergy on February 14, 2013, three days after he announced his resignation. This last discourse, articulate and ample, was given "off the cuff" , ex abundantia cordis, and represents perhaps, Benedict XVI 's doctrinal testament. The Pope acknowledges the existence of a crisis in the Church, connected to Vatican II, but he attributes the cause to a "virtual" Council, which had superimposed the real one.
The virtual Council is the one imposed by the instruments of communication and of certain theological environments, which in the name of a misunderstood "spirit" of Vatican II, had distorted the intentions of the Council Fathers. Abusive post-council praxis, had betrayed the truth of the Council, expressed by its theological documents, and it is to these same texts that we should return in order to find its authenticity: the problem of the Council for Pope Benedict, is hermeneutic, before being historical or theological: the problem of a false hermeneutic which opposes the authentic interpretation, not only of the texts, but of the concliar event itself.
Pope Ratzinger's thesis is not new. It is the basic idea of those theologians who, in 1972, after having participated at the birth of the magazine "Concilium" together with Karl Rahner, Hans Kung and Edward Schillebeeckx, abandoned it to give life to the "Communio" magazine. Father Henri de Lubac, in a famous interview given to the then Monsignor Angelo Scola (Viaggio nel postconcilio (A Post-Council Journey), Edit, Milano 1985, pp, 32-47), coined the expression "para-council" to indicate the movement that had deformed the teaching of the Council through a tendentious interpretation of the event. Other theologians use the name "meta-council" and Joseph Ratzinger himself, in the famous Rapporto sulla fede of 1985, anticipated the thesis of the virtual Council, and afterwards formulated this many times during his pontificate.
The discourse in 2013 is however the sorrowful confession of the crisis of the hermeneutic of the "reform in continuity." The awareness of this failure certainly weighed on Pope Bendect's renunciation in February 2013. Why could the "Benedictine" line of interpretation not be enforced, and was defeated by the theses from the "school of Bologna" which spread unopposed in Catholic universities and seminaries?
The main reason is in the reality that history is not made by theological debate, and even less so by that of hermeneutic. The hermeneutic debate places accent on the interpretation of a fact, more than the fact itself. But as soon as different hermeneutics are compared, the objectivity of the fact is removed, superimposing subjective interpretations of the event, reducing it to opinions.
With the existence of this plurality of opinions, a decisive word could be pronounced by a supreme authority who would define, without a shadow of equivocation, the truth that is to be believed. But in his speeches Benedict, like the Popes before him, never wanted to attribute a magisterial character to his interpretative theses. In the hermeneutic debate which [still] continues, the criteria of the ultimate judgment rests therefore in the objectivity of the facts. And the undeniable fact is that there was a virtual Council and it was not less real that that which is enclosed in its documents.
The texts of Vatican II were put in a drawer, while its "spirit", with arrogance, entered history. It was a human spirit – not very holy, expressed through lobbyism, political pressures and the media, which directed the unfolding of the events. And because the language was deliberately ambiguous and indefinite, the virtual Council offered the authentic key to the reading of the final documents. The Council of the texts, cannot be separated from history, and the school of Bologna is not wrong when it emphasizes the revolutionary novelty of the event. It is wrong when it wants to give a "theological place" to this event, making it the supreme criteria in judging history.
The hermeneutic of Benedict XVI did not manage to explain history, that is to say, what happened from 1965 to the present day. The conciliar texts were crushed by post conciliar praxis, a reality that cannot be questioned if you want to contest it with only one hermeneutic. Besides, if Vatican II cannot be criticized, but only interpreted in a different manner, what is the difference between theories of discontinuity and those of the reform of continuity? For both, the Council is an event that is irreversible and cannot be judged, as [it] itself has become the final criteria for doctrine and behavior. Whoever denies the possibility of debate on the Second Vatican Council, in the name of the Holy Spirit which guarantees it, makes the event infallible and turns it into a super-dogma, an immanent fact in history.
For the Christian, history is instead the result of an intricacy of ideas and facts that have their roots in the tangle of human passions and the powers of supernatural and preternatural action which are in perennial conflict. Theology must make itself a theology of history in order to understand and dominate human vicissitudes; otherwise it is absorbed into history, which becomes the supreme measure of judging the things of the world. Immanentism is nothing other than the loss of a transcendent principle, which judges history without itself being judged. Under this aspect, the intentions of the Council Fathers and the texts that they produced are only a part of reality. Vatican II is, like the French Revolution or the Protestant one, an event that can be analyzed at different levels, but it constitutes an unicum, with its own specification and, as such, represents a moment of un-doubtable, and in certain terms, apocalyptic, historical discontinuity.
The "school of Bologna's victory was sealed by the election of Pope Francis, who, speaks little of the Council because he is not interested in theological discussions but in the reality of the facts and it is in the praxis that he wants to show that he is the true accomplisher of Vatican II. Under this aspect, it could be said, he incarnates the essence of Vatican II, and makes it doctrine, by fulfilling its pastoral dimension. Theological discussion belongs to modernity and Pope Francis presents himself as a post-hermeneutic pope and thus post-modern. The battle of ideas belongs to a phase in the history of the Church which he wants to go beyond. Francis will be a conservative or a progressive, according to the historical and political demands of the moment.
The "pastoral revolution" is, according to Alberto Melloni, the primary characteristic of Francis' pontificate. "Pastoral" – the Bolognese historian writes – is a key word in understanding Pope Francis' ministry. Not because he was a teacher of pastoral theology, but because when he interprets it, Francis evokes with amazing naturalness the pulsing heart of the Gospel at the crossroads of receiving (or refusing) Vatican II. "Pastoral" comes from the language of Pope John: it was thus that he wanted "his" Council, – a pastoral Council – and Vatican II was just that." (L'estasi pastorale di papa Francesco disseminata di riferimenti teologici, in "Corriere della Sera", 29 marzo 2013).
Melloni, as always, forces reality, but basically he is not wrong. The pontificate of Pope Francis is the most authentically conciliar one, in which praxis is turned into doctrine, and which attempts to change the image and reality of the Church. Today the hermeneutic of Benedict has been archived and out of the new Pope's pastorale(praxis) new surprises must await us. The director of "Il Foglio", in carrying Gnocchi and Palmaro's articles, sensed it, by instinct, that this case is both theological and journalistic. But one more question needs to be asked. Why do the most relentless defenders of Vatican II and the most severe critics of Gnocchi and Palmaro come from the cultural area of Communion and Liberation?
It is not difficult to answer if one remembers the origins of CL and the roots of its founder 's ( Don Luigi Giussani) thought. The CL horizon was, and has remained that of the progressive "nouvelle thèologie". In a famous article which appeared in 1946 with the title La nouvelle théologie" où va-t.-lle, the Dominican, Garrigou-Lagrange, one of the greatest theologians of the 20th century, indicated as characteristic of the "nouvelle théologie" the reduction of truth to "religious experience." " The truth – he wrote- is no longer the conformity of judgment with objective reality and its immutable laws, but the conformity of judgment with the demands of action and human life, which is continually evolving. The philosophy of being or ontology is substituted by the philosophy of action, which defines the Truth no longer according to being, but according to action."
Again we find this characteristic in the language and practice of many CL members. It is sufficient to remember their continuous reference to the faith as "an encounter" and "experience" with the consequent reduction of principles to mere instruments. In fact, it is true that there is no Christianity if it is not lived, but a faith cannot be lived if it is not known, unless one retains, as modernism and the nouvelle théologie do, that the faith gushes forth from the vital experience of the subject.
An "experience" that would be possible in all religions and which would reduce Christianity to pseudo-mysticism or purely moral praxis. The historian, Cristina Siccardi, in another very good book just published (L'inverno della Chiesa dopo il Concilio Vaticano II. I mutamenti e le cause, [The Winter of the Church after the Second Vatican Council. The Changes and Causes] Sugarco, Milano 2013) analyzes in detail the consequences of this pastoral of "experience", recalling the words of another great Dominican theologian of the twentieth century, Padre Roger-Thomas Calmel: "Doctrines, rites and the interior life are submitted to a liquefying process so radical and so perfected, that you can no longer distinguish between Catholic and non-Catholics. Since a yes and a no, the definite and definitive are all considered old-fashioned (outdated), we ask ourselves what is there to impede the other non-Christian religions of being part of the new universal Church, continuously updated by ecumenical interpretations." (Breve apologia della Chiesa di sempre, Editrice Ichtys, Albano Laziale 2007, pp. 10-11).
Paraphrasing Marx's affirmation, according to which it is in the praxis that the philosopher shows the truth of his doctrine, we could recognize in the post-conciliar theology the principle by which it is in the "religious experience" that the believer shows the truth of his faith. It is, in nuce, the predominance of the praxis in modern secularist philosophy. This philosophy of religious practice was theorized by the most radical sects of the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, such as the Anabaptists and Socinians. For them faith is measured by its intensity: what is important is not the purity and integrality of the truth which is believed, but the intensity of the act with which you believe. The faith, then has its measure, not in the doctrine believed, but in the "life" and action of the believer: it becomes religious experience freed from any objective regula fidei whatever. We find these tendencies again in the progressive theology which prepared, guided and in part, actualized the Second Vatican Council.
The progressive "nouvelle théologie" had its main exponents in the Dominican, Marie-Dominique Chenu and in the Jesuit Henri de Lubac. It is not by chance that Chenu was Giuseppe Alberigo's mentor and that de Lubac was the point of reference for the disciples of Don Giussani. And it is not by chance, that among the first official texts from Communion and Liberation, at the beginning of the '70s , the study entitled La questione di cristianesimo e rivoluzione, by the theologian Giuseppe Ruggieri emerges. Ruggieri, who at that time directed the theological collection at Jaca Book, today directs "Christianity in History" and is, with Alberto Melloni, the leading exponent of the " School of Bologna " . There is no incoherence in his intellectual itinerary presented by Melloni himself, in the volume Tutto è grazia (Jaca Book, Milano 2010), as is there is no incoherence in the positions of yesterday and today in some (not all) of the exponents of Communion and Liberation. What unites the theology of CL with that of the School of Bologna is the "theory of the event", the primacy of praxis above doctrine, of the experience of truth, which CL situates in the encounter with Christ and the School of Bologna in the encounter with history.
Giuseppe Ruggieri was the theologian of Communion and Liberation and today he is the theologian of the School of Bologna. And today the CL and the Bolognese meet once again in demonizing Gnocchi and Palmaro, not as critics of Pope Francis and Vatican II, but as "ethical" Christians who re-propose the primacy of the Truth and the Law. And yet, Jesus said, " those who love me keep my commandments" (John 14, 15-12). There is no love of God outside the observance of the natural and divine law. The observance of this truth and this law is the measure of Christian love.

Gene: Our first guest review is from Murphy'sMom, who used to review with Sarah and I for the Unshelved Book Club. (Let us know if you're feeling the itch to review a book or two, too.)
Lily and Dunkin by Donna Gephart. Delacorte Books for Young Readers , 2016. 9780553536744.
Timothy McGrother knows she is really a girl named Lily. She has long, blonde hair and looks great when she dresses up in her mother's sundresses, high heels, and makeup. In fact, she wishes Tim didn't exist. Lily does not understand why her dad and other kids in her class see only a little, freaky weirdo named Timothy. That is so not her! Lily is starting eighth grade and puberty so she really, really needs her dad to give her permission for the hormone blockers.
Norbert and his mom just moved from New Jersey to Florida. He is pissed at his mom because she left his dad and wants a fresh start. Norbert wants to reinvent himself because in Jersey he was a big, clumsy oaf. (It's a good thing the jocks don't see that when the basketball coach adds him to the team as a walk-on.)
Neither Norbert nor Tim are comfortable with their true identities. Tim wants so badly to be Lily, and Norbert hates his name and lumbering physique. When the two become friends before school starts, they are able to confide in one another and recreate themselves as Lily and Dunkin.
This is a great YA novel that has a tremendous amount of compassion and sympathy for the underdogs.
