    I got the package way earlier than I expected which was great! It came with 11 masks (one was a free sample) and there were two of each of the 5 kinds. Theyre comfortable to wear and make my skin feel extremely refreshed/soft. I also got TONS of small sample packages of other products which was an unexpected surprise~!

    Even if you arent nursing, it is a huge help to have this pillow. When my baby was little, this made a huge difference. I was exhausted from lack of sleep and from recovering from labor; I really appreciated being able to rest most of my babys weight on this pillow.

    This planner is super cute and useful. I would suggest looking for it on ebay for a lower price though. I really love that all the pages have layouts, but its up to you to fill them out. There are also many extra pages for taking notes and stuff. I decided to use the last colored pages as an address book. I think someone mentioned that the binding is kind of loose which worried them; however I think this was done on purpose so that the book can be opened all the way and you can use all the space on the pages.

    Love this fun printed swaddle for my baby boy. These are very comparable to aden and anais classic swaddles. Theyre huge and perfect for achieving a nice snuggly swaddle and incredibly versatile. Its modern and great quality, however I do need to mention that the color of the cats are more pink than red, which I didnt know until I opened the package. My son frequently gets mistaken for a girl when hes wrapped in this but theres no reason boys cant rock a little pink! Love to use this as a stroller cover in the sun, burp cloth, blanket, swaddle etc. I definitely plan on ordering more prints

    I have used the Avon Sun+Sport Refresh Sunscreen Lotion for two years now and I love the feel and the way I look with it on. You use it for the sun but it is recommended for wrinkles as well. There was a advertisement on TV about it was the best cream for wrinkles and then my Avon Representative say they are going to discontinue it and so I went on the hunt for some and ordered three containers.

    Excellent buy for the money. It has all the features for an on or off the camera strobe. Nice effects with soft focus with a filter.

    Sleek blush is the bomb!!!! I applied once and it lasted all night. I work third shift. It was also noticed by the guys i work with. They thought I was blushing all night. Goes on easy with a stippling brush. It looks very bright and loud, but goes on a healthy looking flush color. I am a woman of color and I will be buying more of this blush. Reasonably price item. You will not be disappointed.

    We love this car seat!!!! It is by far the best car seat we have ever purchased. Installation was a breeze and even before securing it with the anchoring system, this car seat was already very secure with just the seat belt clamps. It is literally unmovable. I love it that I wont have to disassemble it to move the straps. Weve purchased several car seats over the years and were reluctant to spend this much on a seat. However, this is the best car seat we have ever owned and well worth the expense.

    I finally found a moisturizer that is heaven sent! I live in super dry Arizona and my skin was flaking with dryness until I started using this deep hydrating moisturizer. When you apply it, it instantly absorbs into your skin with no residue. It almost feels like your skin is drinking it up. It is hard to explain. I really wish this stuff came in huge pump bottles so I could slather on my body as well.

    I use these bands to pull my hair up while I am sleeping. They dont leave an indentation and they are the perfect size. I only have to make 2 twists for it to fit properly without being too tight for sleeping. They only came in this color so was a little disappointed but for my use, they are perfect.

How An EPIRB or PLB Rescue Works

The Anatomy of a Rescue - Stage 1

When activated, EPIRBs and PLBs send a unique distress signal on the 406 MHz frequency to the Search and Rescue Satellites.

Each beacon is programmed with and sends a unique digital code called a HEX ID or Unique ID. The HEX ID identifies the type of beacon and, Search and Rescue use the HEX ID to identify the beacon registration information provided by the beacon owner.

This information can include: who the beacon owner is, the type of vessel the beacon is associated with (for EPIRBs), emergency points of contact, float plans, trip plans, and much more.

The Anatomy of a Rescue - Stage 2

After the satellite receives a beacon signal, it relays the signal to ground stations referred to as local user terminals (LUTs).

The LUT processes the data, computes the location of the distress beacon, and transmits a decoded alert message to its associated national Mission Control Center (MCC). This happens almost instantaneously after the initial beacon signal is received.

The Anatomy of a Rescue - Stage 3

The Mission Control Center then geographically sorts the data, and transmits a distress message to the closest appropriate SAR authority and another MCC if the beacon is registered to another country.

The RCC (Rescue Coordination Center) investigates the beacon alert and launches rescue assets to find the parties in distress.

Rescue Overview

  • 406 MHz Distress Call Is Activated
  • Search and Rescue (SAR) satellites forward distress signal down to earth Ground Stations
  • Ground stations forward the distress to the Mission Control Centers (MCC)
  • The MCC alerts the closest Rescue Coordination Centers (RCC)
  • The RCC call emergency contacts and dispatch the closest SAR teams
  • SAR teams arrive on scene and rescue survivors
  • Worldwide – Over 48,000+ people rescued since 1982
  • United States – 9,753 people rescued since 1982
