As the popularity of women's basketball burgeons, Karra Porter reminds us in Mad Seasons that today's Women's National Basketball Association, or WNBA had its origins in a ragtag league twenty years earlier. Porter tells the story of the Women's Professional Basketball League WBL, which pioneered a new era of women's sports. Formed in 1978, the league included the not-so-storied Dallas Diamonds, Chicago Hustle, and Minnesota Fillies. Porter's book takes us into the heart of the WBL as teams struggled with nervous sponsors, an uncertain fan base, and indifferent sportswriters. Despite bouncing paychecks, having to sleep on floors, and being stranded on road games, the players endured and thrived. Karra Porter brings to life the pioneers of the WBL: "Machine Gun" Molly Bolin, who set lasting scoring records--then faced an historic custody battle because of her basketball career; Connie Kunzmann, a popular player whose murder rocked the league; Liz Silcott, whose remarkable talents masked deeper problems off the court; Ann Meyers, who went from an NBA tryout to the league she had rebuffed; Nancy Lieberman, whose flashy play and marketing savvy were unlike anything the women's game had ever seen. A story of hardship and sacrifice, but also of dedication and love for the game, Mad Seasons brings the WBL back to life and shows in colorful detail how this short-lived but pioneering league ignited the imagination of a new generation of female athletes and fans.Binding Type: Paperback

This stuff works!!
I suffer from skin rashes underneath my breast. I’ve been prescribed a couple of different ointment/creams to use, one even had a steroid in it. They would clear the rash up after about a week. It was very gradual. I remembered buying this very cheap pain rub from the dollar store and it worked better than anything I’d paid $$ for. While searching on line for this pain rub I saw this Natrulo Skin Repair ointment. After reading the ingredients and reviews I decided to try it. I applied it as soon as it arrived. It went on smoothly and it did sting a little on some of the places where I had scratched. I applied it again that night after my shower and right before bed because it was really red underneath there. That was on a Monday, by Wednesday the redness was gone and so were the scratches! This stuff really works! Fast!!

It works.
I was skeptical of this product because of how I intended to use it. Sometimes, especially in summer, moisture accumulates in the crease of my legs (where they attach to my body). And, as a result, I get severely chafed to the point of breaking skin and bleeding (or at least seeping serum). I figured this could just wash away in the moisture. But, it didn't. I did very meticulous cleaning and drying and then applied this ointment. At least twice daily. And in just a few days my skin was healing. I'd say less than a week and I was back to normal.
Highly recommended.

Great skin relief, but not Vegan.
Great product but it's not Vegan. As a nutritioist and vegetarian, I'm aware that true Vegans do not eat/use anything containing animals or animal by-producs. This contains beeswax which makes it vegetarian but not Vegan.
That is the only reason why I'm giving it 4 stars rather than 5.
I bought this to use on 2 small patches of dry/scaly skin on my face. Everything else always says "itch relief" and contains strong chemicals which I prefer to not use, especially on my face. After just a couple weeks, the scaly skin is gone and the red is getting lighter every day. It smells very nice as well.

Not What I thought
This product came in a very small jar.
The product looks exactly like Vaseline.
This is supposed to help skin repair and itch. After a week it did Ineither!.
I'm sorry but that's how I found this product, not what I wanted.
