Anti Mosquito Mens Summer Long Sleeve Tops are ideal for adventure travellers and explorers visiting hot tropical countries where insect bites are a problem. Knitted on the same seamless machines as our award winning Factor 1 Plus base layers, these lightweight designs have been manufactured using 68% recycled yarn for a smaller environmental footprint. Utilising body mapping technology, we have incorporated mesh zones strategically to dissipate heat and enhance wicking rates, with the result being you stay cooler and drier. The more flexible regular fit also makes them less restrictive and more flowing for summer use. Mosquitoes and other biting insects are repelled by the Superbug fabric treatment without the need for insecticides or toxic chemicals. The WHO approved eco-friendly nanotechnology we use not only provides protection directly from the treated fabric, but it also extends up to 40cm, creating a repelling shield around the wearer. This repellent is so safe that it can be worn by babies over 6 months old and pregnant women. Its high durability of 100+ washes makes it especially useful for travellers on long trips. Used in tandem with the anti-mosquito treatment is our Superbug anti-microbial finish. This protects the clothing from unwanted colonisation by fungal and bacteria strains, keeping your clothes cleaner and smelling fresher for longer. This long sleeve version of our anti-mosquito range is especially useful for protecting your arms against the sun and scratches from dense tropical foliage. Scroll down the page for further product details, technical information, sizing, shipping and any washing instructions.
Before we get started today, I wanted to ask all of you a serious favor. One of my good friends, Jenny, is married to an amazing guy. Three months before they got married, Tim was diagnosed with colon cancer. He has been kicking it's butt since 2010, with a positive attitude, too, might I add. On Monday, he goes back in to have more tests run to determine what type of surgery he's going to have to have. A big bad one (we don't want that) or a small, not so bad one. So - all I'm asking from you is that you send positive thoughts and prayers their way! Thanks yall! To learn more about Tim you can check out the Brightlife page here and his blog here! Today is a very special day! It is my BFF's 28th birthday!! We celebrated last Saturday at her and her husband's house and they threw a Minute To Win It party. It was SO much fun! The supplies. Putting the finishing touches on the scoreboard. I'm not sure if I've ever laughed so hard in my life as I did that night! Hope you have the best birthday ever, Em!

Notes: Top Notes: Bayberry Mid Notes: Clove, Nutmeg, Ginger Base Notes: Cypress, Cedar, Balsam, Fir, Musk Our process: The beeswax that we use is high quality beeswax sourced from the United States. We only use 100% beeswax in all of our candles, no other waxes are blended in. We slowly melt the beeswax then add scent and dye. The scent is a non-toxic liquid and the dye is a non-toxic wax based block. We then carefully hand pour the wax into molds. The candles are allowed to cool until they are ready to pop out of the molds. Once out of the molds each taper candle has the base formed using a flute mold. The flute mold is heated and the candle pressed into the mold which forms the base with ridges. This makes it easier for the candle to fit into your candle holder. This takes a little longer to produce, but we want to make sure that our customers have nothing but the best experience with our candles.

From award-winning author Barrie Jean Borich comes Apocalypse, Darling, a narrative, lyric exploration of the clash between old and new. Set in the steel mill regions of Chicago and in Northwest Indiana, the story centers on Borich's return to a decimated landscape for a misbegotten wedding in which her spouse's father marries his high school sweetheart. The book is a lilting journey into an ill-fated moment, where families attempt to find communion in tense gathering spaces and across their most formative disappointments. Borich tells the story of the industrial heartland that produced the steel that made American cities, but also one of the most toxic environmental sites in the world. As concise as a poem and as sweeping as an epic novel, Apocalypse, Darling explores the intersection of American traditional and self-invented social identities and the destruction and re-greening of industrial cityscapes. Borich asks: can toxic landscapes actually be remediated and can patriarchal fathers ever really be forgiven? In a political climate where Borich is forced to daily re-enter the toxic wastelands she thought she'd long left behind, Apocalypse, Darling is an urgent collision of broken spaces, dysfunctional affections, and the reach toward familial and environmental repair.

HUD: Having been burned by compromises to censors on his earlier films Cat on a Hot Tin Roof and Sweet Bird of Youth, Paul Newman decided to star in as uncompromising a property as he could find. That property was Hud, inspired by a portion of Larry McMurtry's novel, Horseman Pass By. Hud Bannon (Newman) is a young Texas rancher who lives with his cattleman father Homer (Melvyn Douglas) and his hero-worshipping nephew Lon (Brandon DeWilde). Hud is an amoral, cold-hearted creature; his father, who holds Hud responsible for the death of his other son, tries to imbue Lon with a sense of decency and responsibility to others, but Lon is devoted to Hud and isn't inclined to listen. When hoof-and-mouth disease shows up in one of the elder Bannon's cows, Hud is all for selling the herd before the government inspectors find out. But Homer orders the cattle destroyed (the film's most harrowing sequence), driving an even deeper wedge between himself and Hud. Finally, Hud steps over the line by attempting to rape Alma (Patricia Neal), the earthy but warm-hearted housekeeper. Paul Newman was so repellantly brilliant as an unregenerate heel that his Oscar nomination for Hud was a foregone conclusion. Although Newman lost the Oscar to Sidney Poitier in Lilies of the Field, Oscars did go to Neal for Best Actress, Douglas for Best Supporting Actor, and cinematographer James Wong Howe. A New Kind Of Love: Paris. The perfect romantic setting for a funny, charming 'opposites attract' comedy romp. Especially when the attracting opposites are Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward. The Oscar.-winning stars (and real-life husband and wife) play a breezy newspaper reporter and a no-nonsense fashion buyer who share a nasty case of hate at first sight. But he takes a second look when she goes from grim to glamorous in one magical afternoon at Elizabeth Arden's Beauty Salon. Will l'amour triumph! It can't miss with Thelma Ritter, Eva Gabor and Maurice Chevalier lending Cupid a hand. Road To Perdition: Two-time Academy Award winner Tom Hanks in \"one of his best performances\" (Kenneth Turan, Los Angeles Times) stars as Michael Sullivan, a father fighting to keep his only son from traveling the Road to Perdition. Directed by Oscar winner Sam Mendes (American Beauty), this towering motion picture achievement has been acclaimed by audiences and critics alike. Also starring Academy Award winner Paul Newman and Oscar nominee Jude law, Road to Perdition weaves a mesmerizing tale of a father and son bound together by tragedy and betrayal. On an unforgettable journey of honor, vengeance and redemption, they confront overwhelming odds and forge an indestructible bond. Hailed for the powerhouse performances of it's stars and the stunning impact of it's story, Road to Perdition is an electrifying experience that will stay with you for a lifetime. Twilight: The Nobody's Fool (1994) team of Paul Newman, director Robert Benton, and scripter Richard Russo reassembled for this L.A. detective drama, beginning with a Puerto Vallarta prologue showing private eye Harry Ross (Newman) accidentally shot by 17-year-old Mel Ames (Reese Witherspoon) during his efforts to get her to return home. Two years later, the broke and divorced Ross lives in a garage apartment on the estate of Mel's parents, his movie-star friends Jack and Catherine Ames (Gene Hackman and Susan Sarandon).
'Promises to make for one of 2021's must-read memoirs' Stylist The powerful, urgent manifesto on never giving up from Booker prize-winning trailblazer, Bernardine Evaristo In 2019, Bernardine Evaristo became the first black woman to win the Booker Prize since its inception fifty years earlier - a revolutionary landmark for Britain. Her journey was a long one, but she made it, and she made history. Manifesto is her intimate and fearless account of how she did it.From a childhood steeped in racism from neighbours, priests and even some white members of her own family, to discovering the arts through her local youth theatre; from stuffing her belongings into bin bags, always on the move between temporary homes, to exploring many romantic partners both toxic and loving, male and female, and eventually finding her soulmate; from setting up Britain's first theatre company for Black women in the eighties to growing into the trailblazing writer, theatre-maker, teacher, mentor and activist we see today - Bernardine charts her rebellion against the mainstream and her life-long commitment to community and creativity. And, through the prism of her extraordinary experiences, she offers vital insights into the nature of race, class, feminism, sexuality and ageing in modern Britain. Bernardine Evaristo's life story is a manifesto for courage, integrity, optimism, resourcefulness and tenacity.It's a manifesto for anyone who has ever stood on the margins, and anyone who wants to make their mark on history. It's a manifesto for being unstoppable. 'Bernardine Evaristo is one of those writers who should be read by everyone, everywhere' Elif Shafak 'Bernardine Evaristo is one of Britain's best writers, an iconic and unique voice, filled with warmth, subtlety and humanity.Exceptional' Nikesh Shukla 'Bernardine Evaristo is the most daring, imaginative and innovative of writers' Inua Ellams
When you have a daunting mountain to climb, it is often best to break it into molehills. In his classic paper, “Small Wins,” University of Michigan psychologist Karl Weick argued that large social problems are best broken down into smaller ones with concrete achievable goals. Social problems as enormous as, say, unemployment, can be so […]
