Feel the difference of a great hair day, every day Every day women are subjected to a multitude of harsh elements that strip the hair of its natural beauty, leaving it limp and lifeless. Dove Hair gives women a great hair day by unlocking a few useful secrets women need to know in order to beat bad hair days. Celebrity hair stylist, Mark Townsend, offers these three easy tips for women to feel the difference of beautiful-looking hair every day. Tip No. 1 - The foundation for a great hair day starts in the shower. Nearly half of women have a bad hair day when their hair feels weighed down. “The foundation to any great hair day starts when women choose a moisturizing shampoo and conditioner that does not weigh hair down,” says Townsend, whose clients include many of today’s leading Hollywood stars. He recommends the improved Dove Daily Moisture Shampoo and Conditioner, a unique formula containing patented technology that does not weigh hair down with excess residue and delivers up to five times smoother hair, in just one wash. More
information on these products can be found at www.Dove.com. Tip No. 2 - Your blow dryer can be your hair’s best friend. Healthy hair looks shiny because the hair cuticle lays smooth and is able to reflect light. More than 80 percent of women feel more confident on a great hair day compared to a bad one, and one way to keep hair looking beautifully smooth is knowing how to properly use a blow dryer. When blow drying your hair, make sure that you angle the nozzle downward as you dry from the roots to the ends which helps keep cuticles flat and reduces damage. “Pointing the blow dryer directly onto hair with no angle can cause breakage and frizz,” says Townsend. He also warns against applying the hot air from a blow dryer on one area for too long; “it will dry out your hair, making it frizzier.” Tip No. 3 - An effortlessly beautiful hair style. A smooth ponytail is a chic way to beat the heat outside. It will get your hair up and off your shoulders, which can often cause discomfort in
hot temperatures. One of Townsend’s biggest style secrets is perfecting a frizz-free ponytail. First, spray a reusable mascara wand with extra hold hairspray. Then, comb the wand gently over the hairline once the ponytail is set, especially in front of the ears, to smooth the little hairs into the style. “I also like to spray
hairspray directly on my hands and run them over the hair that is already pulled back,” says Townsend. “This tip ensures pesky flyaways are smooth, leaving hair looking polished and beautiful.” Dove Hair understands the desire to have beautifully smooth hair.
Cozy up to energy savings with insulation With temperatures dropping, odds are your energy bills will be doing just the opposite. In fact, heating (and cooling) account for approximately 54 percent of the energy use in a typical U.S. home, according to the Department of Energy, representing the largest energy expense for most homeowners. One of the most effective ways to manage a home’s climate, comfort and energy costs is by ensuring that it is properly insulated. “Insufficient insulation, particularly in basements and attics, can allow heat to escape, resulting in higher energy bills and a less comfortable indoor environment,” says Don Kosanka, product program director for Owens Corning. “The great thing about insulation is that it is an investment that returns itself. It’s something that homeowners can install themselves and it provides year-round benefits. Not only does insulation keep homes warmer in winter and cooler in summer, it delivers energy and cost savings all year long.” In fact, sealing and insulating - when done by a knowledgeable homeowner or skilled contractor - can help save up to $200 a year in heating and Page 4
cooling costs, according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). In addition to cost savings, the experts at Owens Corning outline three other key benefits of insulating your home: Energy efficiency - The primary purpose of insulation is to control heat flow in a home to save energy on heating and cooling. It’s estimated that homeowners can typically save up to 20 percent of heating and cooling costs by air sealing the home and adding insulation. For optimal energy efficiency, a home should be insulated from the roof down to its foundation. Information about specific areas to insulate in a home is available at www.energy.gov and www.owenscorning.com. Environmental impact - The energy saved by insulating a home also benefits the environment, but it is important to note that not all insulation products have equal environmental impacts. Look for products made from recycled materials, such as Owens Corning’s EcoTouch(R) PINK(R) Fiberglas(TM) Insulation with PureFiber(R) Technology. Enjoyment - Simply put, a wellinsulated home is a more comfortable home. Insulation provides a protective
The Newport News
barrier between the conditioned areas of a home and the outside elements helping to control moisture and temperature. Additionally, fiberglass insulation acts as a sound absorber, reducing the transmission of sound from one room to another or from the outside. An added incentive for homeowners to improve their home’s insulation this year is the 2013 Federal Tax Credit
for Consumer Energy Efficiency. Those who install qualifying insulation products before Dec. 31, can receive a tax credit of 10 percent of the cost, up to $500. For more information on projects, visit www.owenscorning.com. The site also provides access to a list of insulation products that qualify for the 2013 Federal Tax Credit along with the certification statement form.

The message that a healthy lifestyle helps protect your heart isn’t new. If you’d like to do more to take care of your heart, here are 10 ways technology can make that easier. 1. Stop Smoking. Apps such as Smoke Reducer for Android, and iQuit for iPhone can help you wean off tobacco. You can also use the Firefox add-on Quitomzilla, which shows you how much money you save by not smoking, the number of cigarettes not smoked, and the overall time since your last smoke. 2. Stay Within a Healthy Weight Range. Make it easier to monitor your weightloss progress with the iHealth Wireless Scale. You can track your weight over time, and see results in relation to daily activity, time of day, diet, exercise, and more. The scale lets you set a milestone and share your results with doctors, fitness buddies and family. The free companion iHealth Scale app works with iPod touch, iPhone and iPad. Learn more at www.ihealth99.com. 3. Limit Alcohol and Caffeine. Keep track of how much you’re drinking with the DrinkControl or Alcohol Monitor apps for iPhone, or the SoberApp for Android. They estimate your blood alcohol content and let you know whether or not you should drive. To monitor your caffeine intake, try the Caffeine Zone 2 for iPhone and iPad, or the Caffeine Monitor app for Android. 4. Take Care of Your Teeth. Research suggests that there may be a link between periodontal disease and heart disease. Go online and check the American Dental Association’s database at www.ADA.
org to find oral health care products that have the ADA seal of approval. At the ADA website, you can also watch videos on a variety of oral health care topics. 5. Keep Tabs on Your Blood Pressure. The Mayo Clinic recommends you monitor your blood pressure at home and visit your doctor regularly. With the iHealth Blood Pressure Dock, (www. ihealth99.com), you can accurately measure your blood pressure, track your readings over time, and share that information with healthcare providers, friends and family members. The Dock comes with a blood pressure arm cuff and doubles as a charging station for your iPod touch, iPhone and iPad. The companion iHealth app is available for free. 6. Reduce Stress. Try a portable biofeedback device, like the StressEraser, to help you relax by synchronizing your breathing and your heart rate. If having too much on your plate and too many interruptions causes you stress, try Quiet Hours. It lets you shut down your computer’s communication apps, like instant messaging, for a specified period of time. 7. Exercise Regularly. The Online Activity Tracker from the American Heart Health Association lets you create a personalized walking plan, log time or distance traveled, plot and save walking routes, and more. Check it out at www.startwalkingnow.org. You can also use the AHA Walking Paths app for Android and iPhone.
8. Eat Right. Tracking the foods you consume helps you better understand your caloric
and nutritional intake. The Lose It! app for the iPhone allows you to enter and track your meals and snacks, and keep track of your weight loss progress and goals via the app, as well as access your account online. Visit www.loseit.com for more information. Offering many of the same capabilities, Android phone users can use the Diet Assistant app at www. dietassistantapp.com. 9. Make Sleep a Priority. Not getting enough sleep can raise your blood pressure and make it more likely you’ll have a stroke or heart attack. Learn more about your sleep patterns with a sleep monitor. You can try a headband monitor, such as the Zeo, (www.myzeo.com), or an armband monitor such as the SleepTracker, (www. sleeptracker.com). Each keeps track of your sleep cycle and helps you wake up at the optimal time. 10. Know Your Family History. Knowing your family’s medical history can help you identify patterns that might be relevant to your own heart health. There are a number of online tools such as My Family Health Portrait at https:// FamilyHistory.hhs.gov to help you gather and store that information.

Volunteers Needed to count bald Eagles Volunteers are needed to help count bald eagles for the annual winter bald eagle counts in and near the San Bernardino and San Jacinto Mountains! Come join us for the fun and excitement in seeing one of our beautiful national birds! Concurrent Bald Eagle counts are held at Big Bear Lake, Lake Arrowhead, Lake Silverwood, Lake Perris, and Lake Hemet. Volunteers are stationed at vantage points around the lakes, where they watch for bald eagles during a 1-hour period on the count mornings. Volunteers record their observations on maps and data sheets. This is a wonderful opportunity to catch a glimpse of our breath-taking national symbol. Brief orientations are conducted prior to the count so volunteers know where to go and what to do. During the February count, fifteen eagles were seen, including 10 at Big Bear Lake, 1 at Lake Arrowhead, 2 at Silverwood Lake, and 2 at Lake Hemet. Some of the sites have been conducting eagle counts since 1978. The last bald eagle count for this winter is scheduled for Saturday March 8. No experience is needed. Signing up ahead of time is unnecessary – just show up at the designated
time and location, dress warmly, bring binoculars and a watch. • Big Bear Lake area volunteers will meet at 8:00 a.m. at the Forest Service’s Big Bear Discovery Center on North Shore Drive for orientation. Contact Drew Farr at dpfarr@fs.fed.us or 909-382-2816 or Robin Eliason at reliason@ fs.fed.us or 909-3822832 for more information. Please call 909382-2832 for cancellation due to winter weather conditions – an outgoing message will be left by 6:30 am on the morning of the count if it has to be cancelled. Contact the Discovery Center 909-382-2790 for information about Eagle Celebrations. • Lake Arrowhead/Lake Gregory volunteers will meet at 8:00 a.m. at the Skyforest Ranger Station for orientation. Contact Drew Farr at dpfarr@fs.fed.us or 909-382-2816 for more information. Please call 909-382-2832 for cancellation due to winter weather conditions – an outgo-
ing message will be left by 6:30 am on the morning of the count if it has to be cancelled. • Silverwood Lake State Recreation Area volunteers should plan to meet at the Visitor Center at 8:00 a.m. for orientation. Contact Kathy Williams or Mark Wright for more information about volunteering or taking an eagle tour at 760-389-2303 between 8:00 and 4:00; or email: khwilliams@ parks.ca.gov.

First-time Riders Discover Friendship, Food and Fun with Metrolink Aracely and Joseph Medina had been thinking for some time about planning a Metrolink adventure but just hadn’t gotten around to it. Then Aracely saw a Facebook post about OCTA’s Lunar New Year party at the Irvine Metrolink station. Every year around early February, OCTA sends hundreds of passengers off to celebrate the Golden Dragon Parade and Festival in Los Angeles after treating them to a party full of traditional Chinese food, fun, goodwill and free Metrolink tickets. “I thought this would be the perfect time to ride Metrolink and experience something different, something new,” said Aracely. And in one day, they enjoyed a different cultural experience, made new friends, discovered a great way to travel and began planning their next adventure. The Medinas arrived at the Irvine station and enjoyed the festivities while waiting for the train to Los Angeles. In between the dragon dance and the traditional Chinese pastries, they introduced themselves to three other passengers and soon decided to spend the day together. At the recommendation of one their new friends, a Hong Kong native, the couple tried a new restaurant. “It was one of the best spots to eat
in Chinatown,” said Aracely. “While we there, a dragon went through the restaurant and the fireworks exploded every 15 minutes. If we hadn’t met our new friends, we never would have experienced this. We had the best time ever!” Aracely and Joseph haven’t stopped talking about their adventure and are
planning more trips on Metrolink, possibly to San Diego for a birthday or 10-year anniversary. What advice do they have for other first-time Metrolink riders? “Don’t be shy!” said Aracely. “Ask for advice from fellow riders. Be willing to try something new. We did and we ended up meeting some great people.” Metrolink is ideal for
weekend adventurers who want to leave their cars home and avoid driving and parking hassles. With the Metrolink Weekend Day Pass, on Saturday or Sunday passengers can ride anywhere Metrolink travels for only $10. For ideas on places to see and things to do, visit octa.net.

Jonathan Butler Inspires Crowd on Breakfast with Gary and Kelly Photos by Smooth Jazz Family – Kari Coulter Saddleback College’s radio station KSBR 88.5FM and the City of Mission Viejo presented a Grammy-nominated vocalist and guitarist, Jonathan Butler at the Norman P. Murray Community Center, in Mission Viejo for the Radio on TV taping of “Breakfast with Gary and Kelly”. The three-hour broadcast was recorded in front of a live studio audience of over 500 as well as broadcast live on the radio. During the one-hour interview, Butler told stories of his life and career. He was born and raised in Cape Town, South Africa during Apartheid, and started singing and playing acoustic guitar as a child. Understandably, racial segregation and poverty during Apartheid has been the subject of many of his records. His first single was the first by a black artist played by white radio stations in the racially segregated South Africa and earned a Sarie Award, South Africa’s equivalent to the Grammy Awards. His 21 CDs have earned him accolades in R & B, contemporary jazz and gospel genres. Butler played five songs to the delight of the audience; his daughter Jodie accompanied him on a few selected tunes. Other guests appearing on Breakfast with Gary and Kelly were Elissa Oransky Director of Annual Giving for Saddleback College Foundation and Mission Viejo Councilman Frank Ury. Oransky talked about the Saddleback College Foundation and the overwhelming need for funds as they provide a variety of services to students at Saddleback College. Scholarships for deserving students, Emergency Funds for homeless students as well helping veterans adjust to civilian life, all are supported through philanthropic gifts; their upcoming fundraiser is April 12th. Council Member Ury serves as the City of Mission Viejo representative for the Foothill/Eastern Transportation Corridor Agency (TCA) and talked about changes and improvements to the county’s freeways. The Vice President of Research and Development at the KSBR Test Kitchens Tom Riehl was also featured for “Cooking for Kelly” segment giving everyone a good laugh. His recipe this month was creating the perfect Philly Cheese Steak sandwich. Breakfast with Gary and Kelly will welcome Chris Standriing on March 8th. Standring has established himself as a popular mainstay in the contemporary urban jazz genre with infectious R&B driven hits like “Cool Shades” (from 1998’s Velvet), “Hip Sway” (title track from his 2000 album), “Ain’t Mad Atcha” (2003’s Groovalicious), “I Can’t Help Myself” (from 2006’s Soul Express), “Love & Paragraphs” (from 2008’s Love & Paragraphs), and “Oliver’s Twist” (from 2012’s Electric Wonderland). He has pushed his muse into offbeat and ultimately successful ventures like Blue Bolero (whose single “Bossa Blue” was the #1 Billboard Contemporary Jazz Track of the Year) and Send Me Some Snow, an inviting holiday collaboration with award winning pop/folk singer/songwriter Kathrin Shorr. His new effort, “Don’t Talk, Dance!” is easily his funkiest ever and continues his successful search for fresh, new musical paths. Breakfast with Gary and Kelly will is taped at the Norman P. Murray Center in Mission Viejo. For information visit www.KSBR.org. Past guests on “Breakfast with Gary and Kelly” have included Al Jarreau, Debbie Reynolds, Linda Evans, David Benoit, Peter White, Diane Schuur, Keiko Matsui, Rick Braun, Paul Brown, Bill Cantos, Brian Culbertson, Nick Colionne, Spencer Day, and more. Gary and Kelly have conducted numerous remote broadcasts from locations all over Southern California, including the Festival of Arts in Laguna Beach and Catalina Island. KSBR is a community service of Saddleback College. The program continues the partnership between Saddleback College and the City of Mission Viejo. For more information on the Radio on TV monthly series and how to become part of the audience for this very special December 14th show, please tune to 88.5 KSBR or visit their website at www.KSBR.org Located in Mission Viejo, Saddleback College provides quality higher education and training to the greater south Orange County community. Having served more than 500,000 students since 1968, Saddleback College offers over 300 degree and certificate programs to help students reach their personal, career, and educational goals.

Tiger Trail: The Game Now Available for Mobile Devices from San Diego Zoo Safari Park
The San Diego Zoo Safari Park is preparing for the Memorial Day weekend opening of its Tull Family Tiger Trail and, starting today, has made available an online version of Tiger Trail: The Game for both iPhone and iPad. Tiger fans can take the challenge of saving a Sumatran tiger from the perils faced in the wild and getting it safely to a protected reserve. Tiger Trail: The Game, launched earlier this month, is now available for mobile devices. This is the Safari Park’s second online game and was created with a 3-D isometric view, giving a bird’s-eye view of the game. Players can help save an animated tiger roaming the wilds of Sumatra from falling into traps set by poachers. Players are also challenged to collect food and powerups to build their tiger’s strength. The game has a variety of levels designed to test the player’s skill with increasingly difficult challenges. With the added mobile access, iPhone and iPad owners can download the app for Tiger Trail: The Game to save
tigers wherever they are. About the Tull Family Tiger Trail Exhibit. The 5.2-acre Tull Family Tiger Trail opens at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park on Memorial Day weekend 2014. The forested habitat will include three separate yards for the tigers with rocks for climbing, ponds for swimming, deadwood trees to use as scratching posts and tall grasses for catnaps and will offer upclose views of the tigers, including a birthing den with outdoor space. Conservation efforts for the species will be highlighted throughout. In preparation for the opening on May 24, 2014, the Safari Park has launched a microsite about the Tull Family Tiger Trail. Online visitors to www.sandiegozoo.org/tigertrail can take a virtual tour of the new home for the Park’s six Sumatran tigers while the exhibit is still under construction. The site offers a look inside the Sambutan Longhouse, a simulated cultural center in the middle of the Tiger Trail area, and the Pondok, an Indonesian hut or
shack where guests can discover how poaching and the illegal trade of animal products are impacting the survival of tigers and other animals that share their habitat. The Safari Park is home to six tigers, four of which are under 3 years old, so the new website also features photos and videos of the earliest stages of a tiger’s life. As visitors scroll down the webpage, they can learn about the power, strength and physical features of this feline predator, from its binocular-like vision to the large canine teeth that help the tiger swiftly kill its prey. There are also videos about the importance of a tiger’s whiskers and large paws. The site includes facts about the cat’s most iconic feature, its stripes; for example, tigers have more than 100 stripes that appear not only on the cat’s fur but on its skin, too. There are fewer than 400 Sumatran tigers in the wild and that number continues to drop. Scientists estimate that this species could become extinct in its native
Sumatra by 2020, unless drastic measures are taken to protect and preserve it. Tigers face many challenges in the wild, from loss of habitat to conflict with humans, but the biggest threat continues to be poaching; tigers are killed and their body parts sold illegally, mostly for folk remedies. People can help protect wild tigers by avoiding products that harm tiger habitat and by refusing to purchase items made from endangered wildlife. The San Diego Zoo Global Wildlife Conservancy is dedicated to bringing endangered species back from the brink of extinction. The Conservancy makes possible the wildlife conservation efforts (representing both plants and animals) of the San Diego Zoo, San Diego Zoo Safari Park, San Diego Zoo Institute for Conservation Research, and international field programs in more than 35 countries. The important conservation and science work of these entities is supported in part by The Foundation of the Zoological Society of San Diego.

We’re all trying to do more with less these days, and many families are examining their impact on the environment, both at home and on the road. Electric and hybrid cars have been garnering much attention for having a smaller impact on the environment than traditional gas-powered vehicles, but how do you know if an alternative energy vehicle is right for you? Before choosing a new car, it’s helpful to understand the differences between hybrid and electric vehicles. Both types of vehicles are more efficient than traditional cars -- incorporating energy-saving and emissionsreducing features, many of which are related to innovative uses of lighterweight plastics and reinforced plastic composites. Hybrid cars are dual-powered, featuring an electric motor and a gas-powered engine. The electric motor is powered by a battery, while the gas engine is, of course, powered by gasoline. Depending on how and where you are driving, the car switches between the motor and the engine to achieve maximum fuel efficiency and reduce emissions. Electric cars, meanwhile, rely only on an electric motor powered by a
battery. As battery technology advances, these batteries are getting more powerful, less bulky and holding charges longer. The latest example of battery technology is the lithium-polymer (polymer means plastic) battery, which is growing in popularity among automakers. These batteries are up to 10 percent more efficient than the nickel-metal hydride batteries currently in many hybrid cars. Electric cars have come a long way, but so far they don’t have the same longrange capabilities of gaspowered vehicles. But with hybrid vehicles, consumers can achieve the reduced emissions of an electric motor, along with the long-range capabilities of a gas-powered engine. Automakers also are increasing the efficiency of hybrid and electric cars by investing in more efficient design. They are using materials such as reinforced plastic composites that can be as strong as steel, yet lighter -- to reduce vehicle weight and lighten the load on engines, while also
maintaining the flexibility to design aerodynamic, visually exciting cars. Vehicles built using these lightweight and ultra-strong materials tend to weigh less, while providing high performance. And the green credentials don’t stop at the engine -- some new models include upholstery that uses plant oils to help make the plastic padding and even seat belts made from
recycled plastic bottles. For more information about how plastics are fueling auto innovations, visit www. plasticsmakeitpossible.com. So is a hybrid or electric vehicle right for you? Today’s hybrid car models are great for commuters and road trips, while electric cars are handy for short trips to the grocery store or to pick the kids up from school.

Girls’ night: Tips to take you from primp to party Girls’ night out is a rite of passage, a time to celebrate friendships and embrace life. Preparing for a big night on the town is often as much fun as the actual outing. Creating the perfect environment for primping is an essential piece of the plan - whether hitting the hottest club or checking out the trendiest new restaurant, a girl knows she has to look good and be in the right mood. Celebrity lifestyle expert Jamie Krell, known for bringing lifestyle and fashion expertise to national television programs, has some bold yet simple suggestions to give girls’ night a makeover that won’t soon be forgotten. “I often find that getting ready for a big night out can be just as much fun, if not more so, than the night out itself,” says Krell. “Atmosphere is everything.”
* Start by setting the table: Place succulents in Chinese takeout boxes down the center of the table and use tea lights to create an easy yet innovative tablescape. * Make a playlist: “Apps like Songza are a great resource for finding the perfect playlist,” says Krell. “You can incorporate the season, style of party and mood into your search, so it’s personalized, plus it saves you some time since you don’t have to manually make it.” Pick something that will pump everyone up, especially if the plan is to dance the night away. * Drinks: It’s important to hydrate before a big night out - especially if you want to feel just as good the next morning. “One of my favorite new trends when getting ready with my girlfriends is TeaGaming instead of pre-gaming where you hydrate while getting ready for a big night out,” says Krell. “Good Earth Tea has some wondrous fusions that are perfect to get my taste buds excited.” These bold, unique fusions are made from all natural ingredients without the added sugar and calories of juice or energy drinks. Exciting flavors
and whimsical names like Tropical Rush and Matcha Maker make for a playful potion the girls can sip and savor. Krell suggests serving delicious green tea mocktails to kickstart the party. Matcha Maker Shaker Ingredients: 1 bag Good Earth Matcha Maker tea 6 ounces hot water 1 teaspoon shredded or chopped fresh ginger 1/2 lime cut into two wedges Steep Matcha Maker tea bag in 6 ounces of hot water for 3 minutes then cool in refrigerator 10 to 15 minutes. Muddle ginger and juice of one lime wedge. Add cooled tea and stir. Shake with ice then pour into your favorite glass. Garnish with remaining lime wedge. Serve mocktails in a clear pitcher with mint leaves and lemon slices with mismatched glasses to reflect everyone’s different personalities. It will be fun to see who picks the champagne flute, mason jar or martini glass. * Menu: If dinner isn’t in the plans for the night, it’s a good idea to have something while getting ready. Krell prefers to serve sushi, and adds that seafood is actually a fabulous pairing
for the green tea in your mocktails. “Easy-to-make cucumber sushi rolls can be made up ahead of time and the rest can be bought at a favorite local sushi spot,” she says. For the cucumber rolls, simply cut thin slices of cucumber lengthwise, spread them with cream cheese, add a layer of smoked salmon and roll them up. Serve with chopsticks in mason jars and use something unexpected as a platter, like an old 45 record (washed clean, of course) or a chessboard. * Dress coding: The look is the fundamental element of any girls’ night. Take a cue from your favorite TV show to create a theme that everyone follows. Deep red lipstick a la Mad Men, retro-chic dresses from Girls or elaborate braided hair do’s inspired by Game of Thrones are all fitting options. “ Be t we e n e v e r y o n e ’s b u s y schedules, it can be hard to find time to hang out with girlfriends, but it’s important to make it a priority to find time,” says Krell. “It’s good for a girl’s soul and sanity, plus it’s just flat-out fun, to plan an adventure - make it one everyone will remember and let it serve as inspiration to plan many more.”
Five Ways to Save on Cosmetics by Stephanie Nelson, CouponMom.com 1. Is high-end always better? Consider this question: Do my lashes look 30 times better when I buy luxury-label mascara from the department store? It’s easy to pay much lower prices for cosmetics at the grocery store, drugstore, or discount store by following the same sorts of strategies you use to trim your food budget. 2. Use Coupons. To encourage women to buy their makeup at the grocery stores, cosmetic coupons have been flooding the circulars. For products such as hair color or premium moisturizer, it’s common to find coupons for $5 off or more. Look for store coupons to stack with manufacturer’s coupons and pay next to nothing to look your best. 3. Wait for deals – no, steals! Most grocery stores feature labels like Loreal, Neutrogena, Max Factor, Revlon, Cover Girl, Maybelline, and Almay. You can almost find at least one of these brands on deep discount. Watch for 50% off sales and buy one, get one free offers, and put those coupons to work. My favorite Revlon eyeshadow costs $6.50 at full price but when my store sells for 50% off, I use a $2 coupon and can get it for only $1.25. 4. Become a drugstore diva. While you are there, you can combine store coupons, manufacturers’ coupons, and weekly promotions to save. CVS was offering a promotion in my area for $10 Extra Bucks reward as an automatic rebate with a $20 Cover Girl purchase. I bought three items to qualify and used three $1 off coupons. My final cost for $20 in cosmetics was $7. 5. Don’t keep it if you don’t like it. If cosmetics that you purchase at the drugstore or grocery store don’t meet your quality standards, return them for a refund. Keeping products you will never use is very expensive. Page 16

The amount may be greater on the day of sale. BENEFICIARY MAY ELECT TO BID LESS THAN THE TOTAL AMOUNT DUE. Trustor(s): MICHAEL F. BROPHY, A SINGLE MAN. Recorded: 3/19/2008 as Instrument No. 2008000126326 of Official Records in the office of the Recorder of ORANGE County, California; Date of Sale: 3/28/2014 at 9:00 AM Place of Sale: On the front steps to the entrance of the Orange Civic Center, 300 E.

You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware
that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 714-573-1965 for information regarding the trustee’s sale or visit this Internet Web site http:// www.qualityloan.com , using the file number assigned to this foreclosure by the Trustee: CA-13-595035-JB . Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the property address or other common designation, if any, shown herein. If no street address or other common designation is shown, directions to the location of the property may be obtained by sending a written request to the beneficiary within 10 days of the date of first publication of this Notice of Sale. If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee, and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse. If the sale is set aside for any reason, the Purchaser at the sale shall be entitled only to a return of the deposit paid. The Purchaser shall have no further recourse against the Mortgagor, the Mortgagee, or the Mortgagee’s Attorney. If you have previously been discharged through bankruptcy, you may have been released of personal liability for this loan in which case this letter is intended to exercise the note holders right’s against the real property only. As required by law, you are hereby notified that a negative credit report reflecting on your credit record may be submitted to a credit report agency if you fail to fulfill the terms of your credit obligations.
