Beauty @ MindSay

This is the root of what I had wanted to write before that last post, but couldn't get out.  My mistake was that of over-complication.   I felt like it needed to be made bigger than it was.  It was big enough on it's own though.

I saw a girl in blue plaid.  She was by no means beautiful, but she represented a freedom from expectation.  That symbolism is absolutely beautiful.  I remembered how little the expectations affected me when I was younger.  I didn't get all worked up over the things I needed to get done.  I doubt I should get as concerned/attentive now as I do.  After seeing her, for a second, for a minute, I wanted nothing more than to lie down at her side and say to no one in particular, "Forget about the future, about achieving.  Let's do something meaningful instead."

For many people, the problem of the acne has become a common problem everyday. Many of these people who always seek the best solution of these problems. But, whether the solutions it right? We have a lot of myths about the acne that grow in the community. Here are some myths that have been heard a lot of people. Is it right, or wrong? Let's look together.

Myth: Acne is caused by dirt.                                                       
Fact: The dirt on the surface of the skin or oily skin surface is not the problem. Cause of acne is a combination of skin scales, oil and bacteria found in the follicles and glands sebaseus. The emergence of acne caused by sebum, dead skin cells, and bacteria that clog the skin pores. Blackheads are not dirt on the skin, but the color of dead cells that have clogged pores on earlier.

Myth: Stress causes acne.
Fact: That's right, stress can cause acne. However, it is only the excess stress that can stimulate discharge certain hormones, which can cause acne. Daily stress that is not excessive will not stimulate acne.

Myth: We can eliminate acne by washing your face more often
Fact: Washing your face regularly is the right thing to help the expenditure of dead skin cells, excess oil, and dirt from the skin surface. But, too often to clean the skin or rub the skin too hard, it will exacerbate acne on the skin. This can be done is to gently clean your face using a face cleanser or soap no more than two times a day. After that, dry your face with a soft towel gently.

Myth: Squeezing acne can eliminate acne pimples well from your face.
Fact: Hit or break the pimples can cause wounds, redness, and perhaps more dangerous, like a scar that can not be lost. So, do not ever squeeze or break the pimples on the skin.

Myth: Frequent washing can reduce acne.
Fact: Acne is not caused by a dirty environment. Acne occurs because of blockage of the sebaceous glands. Washing your face more often can actually spread the infection further and leave a scar on his face.

Myth: Acne just for teens
Fact: Not only teenagers, but everyone can have acne. Acne is not only connected with teenagers. Most teenagers have acne because of hormonal changes in their teenage years.

Myth: Rosacea is same with chronic acne.
Fact: Rosacea has nothing to do with acne. Rosacea is a different type of disorder although sometimes looks like acne.

Myth: Toothpaste can cure acne
Fact: Toothpaste can not cure acne. To cure acne, you should use topical like benzoyl peroxide. Antibiotics can help if you have inflamed pimples. Salicylic acid is another drug that you can use. Ask your doctor first before you use any acne medication.

Myth: Eating certain foods like chocolate and fried foods can cause acne.
Fact: Right!, if you consume those foods in excess.

Myth: Sunlight can help eliminate acne
Fact: Sunlight may be able to work in the short term to disguise the existing acne when your skin redden. However, sunburn is actually skin damage. Sun exposure can cause irritation which can make acne worse. People often see how their skin was peeling off the skin recover from sun damage. The sun is a short-term assistance that would strike back with more acne in the weeks after skin exposure to the sun. But I do not want to give the impression that the sun is evil. Not like that. We get vitamin D from the sun is not it? Limiting exposure to sunlight in areas prone to acne on your body is a really wise thing. :=)

Samsung hit the market with it's new UN55B8500 models and it seem to be causing quite a splash. But is all this hoopla warranted by this new LCD 1080p HDTV? Let's take a look and find out.
The New Samsung UN55b8500 1080p LCD HDTV - Television Redefined

The New Samsung UN55b8500 1080p LCD HDTV - Television Redefined

By Calvin Bog

Once again Samsung raises the bar by creating a breakthrough that makes for a much more intense TV viewing experience. From sports to your favorite movies, the Samsung UN55B8500 takes TV watching to another level. Not only does the new Samsung model represent a leap in how you watch TV, but also on how you interact with the television.

Yes, First Impressions Count... And The UN55B8500 Delivers

What strikes you first, as you come face to face with the new Samsung model, is its sleek shape and look. Samsung has done a fantastic job of squeezing in incredible quality features into it's razor-thin 1.6 inches deep frame supported by a very unique looking stand with an elegantly clear neck. It may be slim but this TV packs a 7,000,000 to 1 dynamic contrast ratio for a brighter, sharper and bolder look that doesn't disappoint. The UN55B8500 television set uses LED local backlight dimming tech.

If you're looking to put this television on a wall, then the people at Samsung have provided the optional Wall Mount that lets you hang it just like a picture frame. When mounted, this TV looks more like a delicate work of art, than your average hum-drum TV. I tend to like mine hanged, but it looks good on a stand also.

The Action, Colors and Clarity

The images become very true to life because of the work Samsung has done in the Color, Contrast and Clarity department. Rich, deep blacks that were unavailable up until now on an LCD screen, pure whites and the 7 million to one contrast ratio works to make the picture breathtaking.

Because of the Advanced Color Processing capabilities of this TV, the Samsung UN55B8500 has a greater depth and vibrant color that captivates the viewers, even with the subdued color palette. On top of this, the Auto Motion Plus 240Hz technology eliminates all motion blur. This results in a crisp, clear and smooth picture no matter how much fast action there is on the screen.

Wide Color Enhancer Pro and the Auto Motion Plus 240Hz

Samsung really paid attention to the way images are shown on the screen, and this resulted in very fluid and clear action. You can see the details, even when the action is really fast. The result is great depth of detail that other TVs don't seem to have. Every pixel on the screen is taken and analyzed by the Wide Color Enhancer. Then it is stretched to it's 3D limit. This creates full and lifelike colors on the screen. The picture really seems to pull you in with it's realness.

The World Wide Web On The Samsung UN55B8500

Samsung makes it easy to surf the net right on your TV. The set has widgets with which you can add, delete and watch content. You can view it all on the roomy sidebar or across your wide screen. I have to admit that I did not get this feature at first until I started using it and saw the advantages. No longer did I have to go and do the old shuffle between the TV and computer when I wanted to look up some info I heard from the TV. Now I can do it all in one place.

Get On TV

It seems the people at Samsung really paid attention to the fact that most of us want to access our photos, music and videos on our TV. Now you can do exactly that on the UN55B8500. You have access to your DLNA or PC wirelessly. You can enjoy YOUR content on your TV. You can even link to multiple PC's - as is the case for a full family where everybody has their own computer. You also don't need to leave your content on your storage devices. The UN55B8500 comes with USB: 2.0 Multi-Media Center. The user friendly interface allows you access to videos, playlists and photos with your remote.

Using Your TV For Content

Here's yet another feature. Again, I thought it was a silly feature at first, but I quickly changed my oppinion when I actually put it to use.You can use your Samsung UN55B8500 to download and save content so you can view it later. This came in handy when I had to open my laptop and I posted the instructions on how to do it (which I found online) on the screen while I was doing it.

Conclusion

Samsung has done an outstanding job with the new UN55B8500 55-inch 1080p LED HDTV. It's really hard to find faults with this TV. The picture is incredible. It's also full of useful and well thought out options. If you're looking for a big screen that really delivers, then the UN55B8500 is what you need.

In order to succeed you must fail, so that you know what not to do the next time. Imperfection is like a shattered glass, broken, hateful and fearful. I live to persue perfection but the barrier is enormous. To get there, experience of failure and disappointment is unavoidable. Things have not been great. There's ups and downs in life which must be overcome. I've been slacking and not keeping up. On top of that, there's unexpected obstacles along the way which I would fight with might having faith in myself. I guess the route matters and depends on the path we chose to walk. Turning around is not my way of doing things. Keeping mobile is the only way to go. Roll with the punches, take it as it comes, and take one day at a time. I wanted to find my way through the chaos bringing peace and harmony into my life. I found solutions to my disasters, and introduced some justice into my life. I started looking forward and being prepared to see the changes and alteration that would occur in me. That's a commitment I made to myself. This would include me sealing and abandoning certain imperfection to develop a successful life.

 

If the world's standard for beauty gets any thinner, no one will fit

A Fable:
There once was a man looking for a wife. So he went downtown to the "wife store" in hopes of purchasing one.
 The  man walked into the store and told the clerk " I am looking for wife'. "And what did you have in mind?" replied the clerk. "I want a wife who is beautiful and sexy!" said the young man.
The clerk led  him into a large room filled with "packages" of every shape inside. Some were wrapped with beautiful colored paper and big bows while others were very plain .
"Take your pick" said the clerk . When you have made your choice just place your package into the converter and your new wife will appear.

So the man looked around the room until he saw a package covered in beautiful ornate paper and tied with a lovely silk bow. "I'll take this one the man exclaimed!
Hurriedly he untied the bow, and unwrapped the package. But as he began to open the box a foul smell began to fill the room and when he reached the inside of the box he found it was empty.

What is this? he exclaimed. He threw the box aside and began to search for another. He soon found a box covered  in tasteful paper,  neatly wrapped with crisp sharp edges. I'll try this one he said.
But when he opened the box it was fill with "rocks".

Once again he tossed the box aside and began rummaging through the packages.He soon found a package wrapped in plain paper tied with a simple yellow ribbon. He opened the box and inside he found it full of smiles  and warm feelings. "This one is nice...I think I will take it" he said.

He started towards the "converter" to turn his package into his new wife, when he saw the clerk standing in the corner next to a large battered box, wrapped in brown paper tied with a simple string.
The clerk asked him "Sir did you find what you were looking for?"
"I think so said the man . How much does it cost?" "Very little replied the clerk. This one is reasonably priced and has a warranty to boot!
"What about the first package I opened , was it defective?" asked the man."No sir" said the clerk. It is a very expensive package! Covered in Only the finest materials! It is a package you can enjoy looking at everyday. But, you must be willing to put up with the bad smell and I'm sorry to say, it mostly for "visual enjoyment".It is hollow on the inside."

"What about the second one" asked the man. "Ah yes," said the clerk. "That is our sharpest model. It's pleasant to look at, very smart, but hard as rock on the inside.It too will cost you a great deal"

"And this package, what about it sir?" the man nervously asked. "That is one our our finest packages! It's not all that beautiful but inside it is a delight!It is well made and requires very little maintenance!I'm sure you'll be very pleased with it!

"Thank you" said the man as he began to walk to the converter. As he placed his "package" in the converter he looked back at the clerk who was carefully dusting the large box.
"Sir" he said "please tell me about that package".

"The old clerk smiled and said "Ah yes, though this package is large and bulky it is our finest model! Though it's  covering is not so pleasant, inside it is filled with the finest treasures on earth! It takes a large package to hold so many wonderful things! And it comes with a lifetime guarantee!
But sadly , it is always overlooked."
"Sir I ask you again, did you find what you were looking for?" 

 It is a shame that so often wonderful, special women and men are over looked due to their appearance. The rose is a beautiful with a wonderful fragrance, yet, it is covered in thorns that will prick you and cause you to bleed. Some of the simplest flowers are the sweetest!
I have a large friend (about 350lbs ) and she is the sweetest women in the world! She is a great cook and a wonderful seamstress with the voice of an angel. But when men look at the "package" they turn away because of her size never bothering to open the box.
