- build relaxation by eliminating the fear of being embarrassed.

HOLD ENJOYABLE CONTESTS WHERE EVERYONE CAN WIN.

A "Tea Tasting Contest," for example, adds no stress and is just plain fun. Hold it during breakfast on the first morning of your retreat: Set up six tables featuring carafes of hot water, disposable Styrofoam cups, plastic spoons, sugar packets and numerous tea bags of one kind per table. Do not identify what kind of tea is being served at each table except by numbering the table itself.

During and after breakfast, invite each guest to make her way around the room sampling the teas and writing down her guesses on a personal sheet of paper with only the numbers 1-6 on it. At that morning's session, let the guests self-score their papers. Have volunteers pass out "free" tea bags to everyone. You could even create your own tea bag packet-jackets featuring the retreat's theme verse.

HOST A GAME SHOW WITH VOLUNTEERS.

True, a few people may get embarrassed, but they would have volunteered for the job instead of being forced to play.

- Tweak the Newlywed Game to make it appropriate for a mother-daughter event.

- Lead a friendly game of Family Feud at a MOPS retreat.

- Host "Name That Praise Song" at a worship planner's renewal weekend.

PLAY A BOXED GAME AS A GROUP.

Balderdash, Cranium, TaBoo and many other games are ideal for large group play with a few simple changes. Remember: Put no individual person on the spot, but rather let the "teams" do it - or, let someone from each team volunteer to be the spokesperson.

HOST A BEAUTY PAGEANT.

Again, recruit volunteers who LOVE the spotlight and are willing to prance around in their cute pajamas or even in something as basic as their winter coats, gloves and hats. Since only the flamboyant volunteer, it will be fun. If you enlist the most quick-witted-woman you can find as the impromptu pageant hostess, and another volunteer to hold up signs toward the audience that say things like, "Clap now!" or "Gasp!" your pageant is sure to be blast.

There are so many things we can do at retreats that can't be done during regular meetings. Go for it! Your women will thank you.

Coach Handbags - Where To Find Them Full Price Or Discounted

I can't think of any women that I have ever known that haven't enjoyed shopping for new handbags. I have enjoyed countless of hours doing nothing but purse shopping with many of my friends or family members. Each experience was different because each individual likes were different. Some wanted handbags with cell phone and make-up compartments, where others just need it to have a separate compartment for loose change and breath mints.

No matter what type of handbag each individual got, they all had one thing in common. They each wanted name brand and at the least expensive price as possible. We all know that getting something on sale is like winning a mini lottery, but to find a name brand handbag like Coach for instance, discounted is like a slice of heaven on earth. I have personally attacked my husband with hugs and kisses when finding Coach handbags at discounted prices.

Women Bags

More than 50 years ago Coach opened its first outlet. They were then family owned and had 6 or 7 people running a few shops. Now there are over 300 Coach stores in the U.S alone and there are plans to open more stores internationally in the coming years. New York City is where the main headquarters resides and is a publicly traded company. Coach(COH), has offices in nineteen countries including Japan. Coach even has outlet stores all throughout the United States.

Coach Handbags - Where To Find Them Full Price Or Discounted

Coach stores can be found in malls all over. Its merchandise can also be found in upscale department stores such as Macy's, Bloomingdale's, Dillard's and many other stores. Coach handbags and other Coach merchandise can also be found in some boutiques.

Some of the high end designers will have an outlet store that carries items that are discontinued or just overstocked items from their main stores. Some just carry the items that were not up to par to go into the main stores so they are sent to outlets to be sold for discounted prices. These are known as irregulars. They are still genuine items and are as nice as the store items, they sometimes just have small defects to them that are so microscopic that they are not noticeable to the naked eye. Like the stitching is not 'perfect'.

Inspired by the same material baseball gloves are made from, these handbags are versatile and stylish. Since it's conception, the Coach handbag has been produced into a variety of designs, colors, shapes, and styles that have won top pick of millions of women the world over.

Coach handbags are the most sought after handbag. Since Coach is one of the most recognized name brands in the world of fashion bags, and other items for travel. They also cater to men and babies as well. For men they have shoes, ties, scarves, sunglasses, carry cases, and other items that are also made for women.

You are sure to find something of your liking when shopping from either a Coach store or outlet for a Coach handbag or whatever you choose. Many of the listed items found in the main stores or department stores can be found in the outlets, so get out there and start shopping! If you can't get out, just point and click and let your fingers do the shopping for you.

Miche Bag Review - What You Should Know Before You Buy

Showing up in malls across America, the Miche bag is the latest craze in the fashion bags that has caught the attention of women across the globe. The handbag truly is the bag everyone is talking about! The reason women are raving about the bag is the cool interchangeable shells the bag has. But is the Miche bag really all that? In this Miche bag review I hope to answer some of the questions many of you may have.

What makes the designer bag different from other handbags?

Women Bags

Basically the Miche bag is the only designer handbag that allows you to change the outer design of the bag. This is made possible with the creation of what are known as Miche shells. The exterior of the bag is made of a silk and polyester blend that has credit card magnets to hold the shells in place. They currently have over 30 different styles of cover shells to choose from. You can also change the length of the handle as they have different handles to choose from as well.

Miche Bag Review - What You Should Know Before You Buy

Benefits

The Miche purse is a stylish bag that takes the hassle out of figuring out which bag to wear! Many women love the fact that you do not have to empty out the contents of the purse you simply change the outer shell. The fact that the shells are so compact they really save room in both your closest and your suitcase. No longer do need money not having to purchase multiple expensive designer bags. Bottom line the Miche bag will save you time and money.

Downside

One thing you may want to consider before purchasing the Miche purse is whether or not the size is right for you. Currently the size of the bag is 5.75" (wide) x 11.75" (long) x 6.5" (tall). I know that one size does not fit all and some women prefer larger bags. However I hear that they are coming out with a larger bag soon. Other than that overall I think the Miche bag is a great concept.

Women Empowerment

Women empowerment is understood as a very narrow term in today's world. Women's empowerment should focus on the holistic manifestation of womanhood and the feminine with a goal to bring a perfect balance between the masculine and the feminine forces of the nature irrespective of gender. Thus women's empowerment should transcend the gender and reach the whole of humanity to establish a matriarchal society based on creative and generative action. Such a social order should be based on the principles of love, compassion, nurturing and with a purpose of unifying the forces of nature.

For this to happen in reality the primary requirement is the social, economic, religious and political empowerment of women. Women have to come out of their homes and actively participate in reshaping the society. When women are empowered in all spheres of life with an equal opportunity and when she has the choice and opportunity to lead a publicly active life only then we can talk about a foundation being created for a collective change in the society.

Women Bags

We need to understand that the more economically, socially, religiously and politically empowered the women becomes, the more confident she becomes in articulating her thoughts and more productive she becomes in her actions. This results in her getting involved in taking decisions for her family, the society, the country and the world along with her counterparts that is men.

Women Empowerment

But this is not the reality as we see today. Today's structures are still patriarchal in nature which is based on power and control. In this kind of setup there is a visible or invisible glass ceiling for women. Women cannot move up the ladder beyond a point. That's why all the major power structures in all walks of life are still controlled by men. The consequences of these lop-sided male dominated structures are enormous to see. Womanhood and the whole of the feminine gender are marginalized in this kind of setup. Further these patriarchal structures are responsible for the division of the society and they promote highly self-oriented materialistic structures based on manipulations and never ending exploitation of natural resources.

Women empowerment in all walks of life shall bring the necessary balance that is required in nature. It will help in promoting structures which are more inclusive, progressive, creative, constructive and generative in nature and which are in sync with nature.

There is a long way still to go before we see Women empowerment become a reality. Economic empowerment of women is the first step towards this direction. The more the woman becomes economically empowered, the more progressive she becomes in the other spheres of life.

Therefore it is imperative to study and analyze the empowerment of women around the world and find out ways towards achieving total women empowerment in every sphere of life.

Women's Sports Bags - The Stylish Approach to Sports

There is a tendency for elegant women to choose a leather bag rather fabric ones, as they give them a more sophisticated look. Leather bags not only look good, but they also offer a great storage space. This is why many women prefer them over the traditional handbags, which are either too small or too uncomfortable to carry all day long. Younger women and teenagers would rather go for colorful sports bags that will enhance their lively, active personality.

For them, strong colors and nicely designed patterns seem to be the best. Most of the time, women look for bags that will not only reflect their lifestyle, but they will also match the color and type of clothing they wear. Thus, if their gear is pink, most women would go for a pink colored bag, while if their gear is in a neutral color they would rather choose a bag to add a spot of color to the entire ensemble.

Fortunately, there are plenty of options from which they can choose. Plain colors or different patterns, they all have the same goal: to satisfy even the pickiest lady in town.

Cause and Solution for Puffy Bags Under Eyes in Men and Women

The cause of puffy bags under eyes in men and women could be as simple as crying or as serious as Chagas disease. Here's a look at what the cause(s) could be and why.

• Eye Salt Retention?

Women Bags

Crying causes eye puffiness (also known as periorbital swelling), because the salt in tears leads to water retention. Some people are more sensitive to salt than others. Eating a lot of salty foods may cause swelling in the fingers and on the face.

Cause and Solution for Puffy Bags Under Eyes in Men and Women

• Allergies

If you have allergies, they can lead to swelling in the face. Frequent allergic reactions leads to leaky blood vessels. Chronic inflammation can cause the same kind of problem. People with inflammatory conditions often have swollen faces, no matter where the disease is concentrated.

Oddly enough, allergy medications can also cause facial swelling. Steroids are particularly problematic. Usually it takes continued use before steroid cause swelling. Initially, they have anti-inflammatory activity.

• Fluid Retention or Swelling

Fluid retention or swelling is the usual cause of puffy bags under eyes in men and women. What you have read about so far are the things that can cause fluid retention. Leaking blood vessels causes swelling, which is slightly different from fluid retention. Fluid retention is an increase in the normal fluid level of the cells. In other words, it is not caused by a leak.

In young people, the most common cause of eye puffiness is sleeping. In some cases, it is over-sleeping. In others, it is a lack of sleep. Lying flat allows fluids to gather in the face.

• Alcohol and Tobacco

Alcohol and tobacco use can cause eye puffiness. The toxins in cigarette smoke can cause irritation of the skin. Smokers have more wrinkles and their skin ages faster. Alcohol causes dehydration, which leads to fluid retention. A night of drinking and sitting in a smoky bar could be the cause of puffy bags under eyes in men and women, especially first thing in the morning.

Pregnancy and the hormonal changes accompanying menstruation is one of the possible causes of eye puffiness in women. Birth control pills, too, can contribute to fluid retention in susceptible individuals.

Many illnesses can cause facial swelling. The periorbital area is particularly sensitive to fluid changes, because the skin is thinner than elsewhere on the face.

Illnesses or health conditions that could be the cause of puffy bags under eyes in men and women... Include:

• Mononucleosis-a relatively common infection, swelling will be present above the eyes, as well as underneath
• Dermatitis-inflammation of the skin, may be caused by an allergen or irritant. Cosmetics are often to blame. Periorbital skin is particularly delicate; more sensitive to irritants and allergens
• Hypothyroidism-other symptoms include facial swelling, changes in the skin and intolerance to cold
• Periorbital Cellulitis-an inflammation and infection of the eyelids and skin
• Chagas disease-caused by a tropical parasite
• Trichinosis-caused by eating infected pork, other symptoms include muscle pain and fever

Finally, eye puffiness can be a symptom of aging. Decreased collagen production, low levels of hyaluronic acid and thinning of the skin can cause or contribute to the problem.

Aging is the most common cause of puffy bags under eyes in men and women. It is also one of the easiest to fix. You'll learn how in my next article. Click the link below in the resource box for: How You Can Reduce Puffy Bags Under Your Eyes. Sign up for the Free Skin Care Guide and Newsletter.

Famous Women Inventors - A Few Historic Female Inventors

Throughout history famous women inventors and mostly, not so famous women inventors, have contributed immensely to the world of invention and innovation. Women inventors are the creators of a wide variety of inventions that we all take for granted. For instance here are some of the inventions women are responsible for: the disposable cell phone, liquid paper, flat-bottom paper grocery bags, scotch-guard and even the Kevlar that's used in body armor.

Think of the struggle women must have endured and probably still endure to some extent just to be taken seriously by the men they were surrounded by. Imagine growing up as a girl in the 1800's and 1900's and being interested in anything mechanical, electrical, or scientific.

The Famous Maria Curie - woman inventor

Famous Women Inventors - A Few Historic Female Inventors

Maria Curie (born in Warsaw, Poland, on November 7, 1867) possibly the most famous woman inventor, was one of the first woman scientists to gain worldwide fame, and was one of the great scientists of this century.

Dr. Curie is primarily known for her discovery of Radium and Polonium. She also discovered that x-rays were able to kill tumors. She was the first person to win two Nobel prizes. Marie Curie decided not to obtain patents for the processing of radium and the medical applications applicable to it.

Hedy Lamarr

Hedy Lamarr was most famous for her acting career, although she was an inventor as well.

Hedy Lamarr was born as Hedwig Eva Maria Kiesler in Vienna, Austria-Hungary, the daughter of Jewish parents Gertrud, a pianist and Budapest native and Lemberg-born Emil Kiesler, a successful bank director. As a young girl she studied ballet and piano.

She married Friedrich Mandl, a Vienna-based arms manufacturer, 13 years her senior. He stopped her acting career, and took her to meetings with technicians and business partners. She once stated that Mandl was consorting with Nazi industrialists and that infuriated her. In 1937, she attended a party wearing her expensive jewelry, drugging Mandl with the help of her maid, and making her escape out of the country.

In Hollywood, she was cast as glamorous and seductive. Her American debut was in Algiers (1938). Her many films include Boom Town (1940), White Cargo (1942), and Tortilla Flat (1942), based on the novel by John Steinbeck. White Cargo, Cecil B.

Frequency-hopped spread spectrum invention

Hedy and her co-inventor, George Antheil, invented a torpedo guidance system that was twenty years ahead of its time.

On 11 August 1942, U.S. Patent 2,292,387 was granted to Antheil and "Hedy Kiesler Markey", Lamarr's married name at the time. This early version of frequency hopping was intended to make radio-guided torpedoes harder for enemies to detect or jam.

It was not used until 1962, when it was used by U.S. military ships during a blockade of Cuba, after the patent had expired. Neither Lamarr nor Antheil (who died in 1959) made any money from the patent. The patent was little-known until 1997, when the Electronic Frontier Foundation gave Hedy an award for this contribution.

Margaret Knight - Prolific Inventor and the Queen of Paper Bags

Before Margaret Knight came along, paper bags were similar to large envelopes. Margaret was employed in a factory producing paper bags when she came up with a way of making a machine automatically fold and glue paper bags to create square.

Margaret Knight can be considered the mother of the grocery bag, and she started the Eastern Paper Bag Company in 1870.

Margaret Knight (Mattie) was born in 1838 receiving her first patent at the age of 30 and has been described as a female Edison. At the age of 12, she came up with a stop-motion device that could be used in textile mills to shut down machinery, to prevent the machinery from injuring the workers.

In her career Margaret Knight received 26 patents for everything from shoe sole cutting machines to improvements in internal combustion engines.

Margaret Knight's machine made flat-bottomed paper bags are still in use to this very day!

Women's Handbags - Handbags That Flatter Your Body Shape and Size

handbags, next to diamonds and maybe shoes, are a woman's best friend. Not only are they used to hold everything that we hold dear, from our cellular phones to our credit cards, our palm pilots to the papers that will spell the difference between promotion and demotion. Let's face it, can you imagine a world without the women's handbag as we know it?

Today, women handbags are not only "receptacles" of your prized possessions but also fashion bags are often used to express moods, individuality, style and status. And even though, it is not really worn so close to the body like bloused, skirts and jeans, there are still shapes and styles of women's handbags that may be flattering and unflattering to a person. Believe it or not, the handbag that you carry can actually add on or lessen the weight that you appear to carry.

Women Bags

Read on and find out just how to choose the perfect shape, size and style of women handbag that will fit your body type and personal style.

Women's Handbags - Handbags That Flatter Your Body Shape and Size

Look at the shape.

Choose the shape that is opposite your body type. For instance, if you are tall and thin, look for bags that are more on the rounded side like the hobo or those that are a bit unstructured. This will complement your figure as it would provide a sharp contrast to your body. If on the other hand, you are on the short and heavy side, it is good to carry women handbags that are tall, rectangular or those with really defined shapes. Long and sleek designs will help counterbalance your more rounded figure. Of course, there is no need to buy women handbags that are absolutely reed thin or those with really sharp edges. Silhouettes in soft fabrics and leathers can do the trick. Just remember to stay away from women handbags with rounded designs.

Think of the size

The size of your bag should complement your size. While the shape should be contrasting and complementing, the size should be in proportion. If for example you are quite tall and big for your age, it would be really awkward for you to carry this really small handbag. The same goes with a really petite person while carrying this really big bag. Awkward. Awkward. Awkward.

Closefitting women handbags or those that can be fit right under the arm at breast level can only look great with women who are slim and those who want to emphasize their cleavage. Using these kinds of women handbags are discouraged for people who have big arms and big busts as the short handles tend to emphasize the large sizes. Remember that the length of the handbag or shoulder bag will always accentuate the part it comes near with. If, for instance, the bag hits your bottom half or hip area, then that area of your body will become more focused as the eyes are naturally drawn to it.

Most women look great with handbags and shoulder bags that end in mid-torso as it flatters the waist. To determine if the length of the strap fits you, try it out. If your arm feels cramped, then it is too short. Try out the bag in the mirror and see for yourself if the bag is flattering to you.

Cleopatra's Bag of Tricks: The Love and Beauty Secrets of Antiquity's Women

Speed dating or online matchmaking-these may be the latest romantic trends, but the artistry of love is ancient and the desire for beauty is something altogether primitive. Searching for a mate or attempting to seduce a partner was once the work of potions and charms, animal sacrifices and amulets. While many of the old rituals may seem wildly out of step for contemporary women, there are many ancient practices that may very well initiate attraction and captivate a partner today.

Asses' milk is not a hot commodity in the present era, but once upon the time it was an elixir by which to preserve youth and beauty. Cleopatra is believed to have placed great store in asses' milk and was known to bathe in it not only for beauty's sake, but because it seemed to have aphrodisiac properties. Doctors of antiquity such as Hippocrates prescribed asses' milk to treat poisonings, nose bleeds, and infectious diseases. Asses's milk was also the preferred nourishment for nursing infants until the twentieth century. Considered closer to breast milk than that of any other animal, it was later given to infants in delicate health because it seemed to sustain them better in many cases. With its characteristic sweet taste, asses' milk is more commonly used in France, Italy, and parts of Spain, but its health and beauty secrets can be traced back to ancient times.

Women Bags

History also reports that Cleopatra added salt from the Dead Sea to her bath. This is not a far-fetched tale since ancient women in this region were known to use salt and minerals from the Dead Sea medicinally and for overall health. Today's mineral cosmetic industry, for example, owes much to the Dead Sea cosmetic practices of antiquity. It was believed that salt from the Dead Sea had restorative powers. Ten times saltier than the ocean, the Dead Sea is the lowest place on Earth that occurs naturally. The extraordinary composition of its brine and truly unique composition of its waters have been said to work wonders for people suffering from various health and skin disorders. The Bible states that King Solomon gave Dead Sea salts to the Queen of Sheba as a gift. It is also said that Marc Antony presented Cleopatra with a deed for the Dead Sea region after he conquered it.

Cleopatra's Bag of Tricks: The Love and Beauty Secrets of Antiquity's Women

Egyptian cosmetics are nearly as old as the civilization. Everyone from the very poor to royalty used them to varying degrees and of different quality. Women, as famously denoted by Cleopatra, wore black kohl to outline their eyes. Another eyeliner variation was to use ground green malachite. In Egypt painting the eyes was a general practice and women, no matter what their status, were likely to practice the application. To shadow the eyes, studies have revealed that ancient Egyptian women would paint their eyelids with a mixture of ground serpentine (a green mineral) and water. To paint their lips, women would combine animal fat and red ochre to create a cosmetic coating. The use of cosmetics in ancient Egypt is a testament to their ideals of beauty.

Ancient Egyptian women were also adept at perfume artistry. Cleanliness was an essential component of desirability for both sexes, but considering the climate, maintaining pleasant fragrance must have been challenging for those ancients. Nevertheless, even without soap, ancient Egyptians are revered for their perfumes. Typically oil, lime, and perfume were the preferred cleansing ingredients. Balanos oil, a botanical extract, was often chosen because it did not clash with the chosen perfume which might have been a combination of flowers and spices. Lime was also used to treat acne and oily skin.

The ancient Greeks dabbled heavily in perfumes and incense to create an aura of seduction. Burning resins or wood created pleasant fragrances that were considered enticing to lovers. Various scents were used for particular parts of the body. Roman baths contained shelves of jarred oils and powders used to perfume the body in pleasing scents. Some places were also synonymous with certain fragrances. For instance, the ancient women of Crete were known for their enchanting scents composed of lilies. Middle Eastern women were noted for their fragrance of frankincense and myrrh. Scent was intrinsic to ancient sexuality, and of course, it plays no small role today either.

Myrrh, prized as a fragrance, was also said to be used by the Queen of Sheba to entice King Solomon. Its ability to enhance seduction was widely known, but it also had many attributes as a beauty tonic. It was regularly used to repair chapped skin and prescribed to treat eczema-like rashes. It has been on beauty regimens for more than four thousand years. Similarly, frankincense was also used in perfumes, but ancient women believed it helped diminish wrinkles and slow down the aging process.

The use of skin cream composed of crushed and finally ground pearls was an ancient Chinese beauty ritual. It is said that pearl cream illuminated the skin. Even today, Chinese manufacturers add ground pearl to some creams. Pearls may seem too expensive to crush into beauty paste today, but bird droppings are essentially free. Japanese women were long accustomed to creating their own creams and cosmetics from natural elements and the droppings of nightingales, for one example, was a popular additive for face creams. And-it worked to restore beauty due to an enzyme within the droppings that contain healing properties. Also, it was far safer than the lead ancient Roman women used to whiten their faces.

In ancient India Vedic Texts reveal that turmeric, a native herb, was an especially important plant for women's beauty regimens. The turmeric would be formed into a paste that women spread over their bodies before bathing. The skin would benefit from deep cleansing and revitalization. Historically, turmeric has been associated with increased longevity so it's not surprising that it is still part of beauty regimens for some Asian women today who generally add sandalwood for greater antioxidant power.

Olive oil was the standard hair care product for ancient Greek women. It rejuvenated hair left damaged by the sun and added luster to the locks. Olive oil was also used soften the skin, beautify the nails, and repair chapped lips. Olive had many culinary and healthful uses for the ancients, but Grecian women prized it highly in their beauty rituals. Not surprisingly, Greece has many beauty products that contain olive oil today. Egyptians were also concerned with hair care, although wigs were commonly worn. However, both women and men rubbed the resin of fir trees into their scalps in the belief that it could generate hair growth. In ancient China, extracts from the beautiful butterfly pea, a climbing plant, was used to strengthen hair. Indian women favored coconut oil to give their hair luster and volume.

Furthermore, ornamentation was frequently added to enhance the beauty of the hair. Cleopatra, who certainly appeared to know all the beauty secrets, is said to have worn gems and jewels strewn through her hair. Women of other ancient cultures wore carved combs or natural elements like shells in their hair. Hairstyles could also be elaborate as depicted on Egyptian scrolls or other ancient texts. In many cultures, a thick and healthy head of hair was linked to a woman's overall healthy and fertility.

The use of aphrodisiacs appears in nearly all cultures. Some edibles were believed to enhance women's sexuality or increase their fertility. Ginseng, horny goat weed, and vanilla were frequently used by women of many ancient cultures. One ancient aphrodisiac is of particular note, however. The seeds of the fenugreek plant were used eaten by Egyptian, Roman, and Greek women in the belief that it increased the size of their breasts. These ancient women also believed that the plant could round their breasts to a more pleasing form. Many aphrodisiacs associated with women were believed to make them more receptive and excited about sex.

Women of Morocco, Egypt, and Persia found that jasmine was an extraordinary aphrodisiac. Bathing in a jasmine scented bath was known to relieve stress and anger. Women scented with jasmine were said to arouse great passion in men. Jasmine was also used to treat dry or sensitive skin. While not as heady, rose oil is said to be a similar type of aphrodisiac regarded by the ancients. Women hailed its calming affects. Rose oil was also used for skin care. Ancient women of Rome were known to favor lavender-scented baths.

While many seduction and beauty rituals of the ancients are considered obsolete today, there are surprising similarities between the past and the present. Favored scents, cosmetic needs, matters of seduction are all components of contemporary sexuality just as they were for the ancients. Skin care, hair care, and many other beauty rituals were important aspects of women's lives in antiquity just as they are today. Beauty and sexuality often went hand in hand for the ancients; these aspects are at the heart of present-day civilization too.
