Skin skin skin, no money!

Life or money? silly question - of course i'd pick a life. Fuck the cancer - at least that shit does not ruin your life when you are young (usually). Acne is the most fucked disease. Of course we have others like leprosy or down syndrome?, but how many people have these, and how many are fucked up with acne?

I would rather have clear, perfect skin and an average salary than be wealthy and have severe acne. Also, spending more money doesn't necessarily mean that you'll get clear skin. Antibiotics work much better on me, and they're cheaper than the total amount of money me/my parents spent on topicals.
Posted 24 August 2013 - 04:57 AM
Would I be allowed to make use of the money to fix my skin, or would my skin not be curable in this case?
Posted 24 August 2013 - 05:22 AM
Probably already replied to this, but money money money! I would pay for clear skin.
At the end of the day, we complain about acne now, but if we were clear we would find something else to dislike about ourselves. With money, would could get the best dermatologists, personal trainers, dietitians and have our hair and makeup done for us every day.
Posted 09 October 2013 - 08:48 PM
lol. i'd take the money. i've already figured out how to have somewhat clear skin.
Posted 10 October 2013 - 07:03 AM
I would choose being healthy in general (not only acne) over 100 million. If we are talking only about acne, i don't think so.. it's difficult times we are living.
Posted 13 October 2013 - 12:24 AM
What's better than that?
Posted 13 October 2013 - 09:11 PM
Even if your acne is as bad as it gets, you should still take the money. Yeah, it'll suck having acne still but you'll have $100M. You can get plastic surgery if you wanted to, I don't know. But $100M > clear skin imo.
Clear skin would make me feel like a million bucks.
What's better than that?
100 million bucks
Posted 13 October 2013 - 09:31 PM
Screw that I'm going with the cash
Posted 15 October 2013 - 09:40 PM
Boom clear skin = dream come true
Hard decision considering my acne is on the border of moderate and severe but I would have to choose the money.
I could buy the house of my dreams, car of my dreams, do the things I only dream about. Plus I could actually buy clear skin. Like buy a better diet, less stress, better lifestyle, best acne medicine etc!!!
Posted 14 November 2013 - 01:39 AM
Clear skin, no doubt
Posted 17 November 2013 - 01:02 AM
Dang, what an old thread.
Well, at this point money. Money would buy a nice vacation, pay off debt, a new computer, maybe some botox lol
Posted 17 November 2013 - 01:52 AM
The money! And not for frivilous reasons, either. I want my bills paid for me!
I'd improve my non-acne relate "lifestyle" first, then maybe look into some more expensive options for my skin that I wouldn't be able to afford before.
Posted 21 November 2013 - 11:31 AM
i would definitley take the perfect skin over money any day of the week! i would give up everything i have (well except for my amazing hubby) to get back to my old self. when i was younger though i would have said the cash but with being older you realize that its not that big of a deal. i am happy as long as i can pay my bills and go out and do stuff on the weekends.

Another 5 hours of driving brought us to the Turkish coast and the city of Anatolya. We had to go over the Taurus Mountain range, which looks surprisingly similar to heading to Squaw - lots of rocks and fir trees. The only difference was that every now and then we would see tents with herders and their goats. Other than that, the highway was quite well built and maintained.

The weighting game
Air-Weigh trailer system installation
The Air-Weigh system for trailers consists of a scale module, an air suspension pressure sensor, a sensor cable and a power cable. Since the cables are of fixed length, Spriggs first laid everything out. He picked a location for the module in relation to where he was going to get air pressure so he knew all the cables and the air line would reach.
- First dump the trailer air. The system requires one sensor for each separate air suspension height control valve. Each sensor must be connected where it can read the pressure used to suspend that particular axle or group of axles. Spriggs says if the particular axle you're working on does not purge, you should carefully loosen an air line connection and allow the pressure to be slowly dumped out.
- This was a tandem-axle trailer with a single height control valve, so only one sensor was required. The kit comes with two types of plug-in breakout connectors. These plug in between the ABS power cable and the ABS module, connecting with the two standard types of plugs. They provide what amounts to an electrical tee so the power line from the module can be simply plugged in to get power via the ABS power supply. Spriggs found where the ABS ECU plugs into the trailer harness and unplugged it. He determined which type of breakout connector was needed and then plugged in both plugs of the circuit used to carry ABS power at the ECU. He then plugged the power line for the scale into the open plug on the breakout connector.
- Next connect the sensor near one of the air bags. After unscrewing the original connection, carefully clean off the threads. Wrap Teflon tape on the existing threads where needed, and install the brass tee supplied by Air-Weigh (The Air-Weigh tee's threads already have Teflon tape on them.) Connect the tee between the air bag and the incoming line, and then connect the sensor to the long end of the tee.
- Route the harness carrying the power line for the module and the cable for the sensor through an existing grommet. Spriggs tied this harness to the existing trailer harness at numerous points to keep it stable.
- Decide where to mount the module, then drill through the trailer's support beam for the mounting screws. First position the mounting bracket and mark the four hole locations. Then use a much smaller drill than required for the final boltholes to make the drilling of those holes much easier in the tough metal. Finally, drill the four holes with a drill a little smaller than the screws.
- Put the mounting bracket in position and install the four attaching screws.
- Plug in the module. Position it on the mounting bracket and install the two mounting screws. The finished product allows the driver to read the rear axle weight while loading.
- Restore air pressure to the trailer air springs and check on the module which automatically goes into a diagnostic mode, to see that the sensor produces a reading.
The trailer module sends a signal representing the digital weight reading into its power cable. The dash display recognizes and reads the signal on its own power line, since all the vehicle's electrical wiring is interconnected once the ignition switch is turned on.
The final step is calibration of the trailer module and tractor ComLink. Air-Weigh provides standard calibrations for a few common air suspensions, and if your tractor and trailer have examples of these, you can just input that information at this time. However, individual calibration of the vehicle is a bit more accurate, so this rig was calibrated.
This involved taking it empty to a truck scale and weighing each axle with the truck level and brakes off. The axle weights were then input into the dash display and trailer module with an indication that this was the empty weight.
Next, the trailer was fully loaded. The weights were again input, indicating that this was the loaded weight. The ComLink contains some sophisticated software that allows inclusion of the front axle weights with the calibrations. The reader board then calculates front axle weight, too.
TruckWeight system installation
TruckWeight, Inc. of Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada, recently entered the on-board scale market with the Smart Scale system. It employs wireless transmission of the signal to a hand-held reader to simplify installation. Both the sensor unit and reader are powered by AA alkaline batteries, rather than the vehicle electrical system.
We visited K.L. Harring Transportation in Bethel, Pa., where President Keith Harring and Tommy Vajdic, the maintenance shop manager, assisted Peter Panagapko, president of TruckWeight, in doing the installation.
- First unscrew the top of the sensor. Install two AA alkaline lithium batteries. Panagapko recommends coating the O-ring with a little petroleum jelly to help preserve it before replacing the top.
- Next, find a mounting location that will protect the sensor from road debris or tire failures, yet allow it to transmit its signal directly to the hand-held reader. An ideal
- Once you have picked a location for the sensor, hold the sensor there in the best orientation and have someone test for a signal to the hand-held unit. Do this while sitting in the cab or, if it will be used during loading, where the driver would stand. If the signal is poor, shift the location as necessary.
- Panagapko and Vajdic found a perfect location on the tractor crossmember that was already drilled. The best location on the trailer, however, needed to be drilled.
- The bolt is extra long to help increase the number of potential mounting locations, and you can get a longer bolt if you need it. You can remove a washer, if necessary, if the crossmember is too thick.
- The next step is to rotate the sensor to produce the ideal orientation. This must be done because the transmitter's signal is most powerful in one direction. That direction is indicated by a larger + than the one used to show battery polarity. The sensor should be mounted vertically, and the big + should face the cab if the reader will be used there most of the time. You'll need to face the + to the appropriate side if the driver will read the weights while loading. Loosen the clamp that holds the bolt in place. Then remove the nut and washer from the end of the mounting bolt, place the bolt through the hole in the crossmember and hold the sensor in its mounted position. Rotate the sensor until the + is facing in the right direction, and tighten the mounting clamp's bolt and nut around the sensor.
- Screw on the top of the sensor and snug it down gently. Then put the sensor in position with the bolt through the crossmember, and install and snug up the nut on the other side.
- Connect the sensor air line to the air suspension. This trailer provided a typical connection point. After dumping all trailer suspension air pressure, Panagapko cut the air line going to the air bag. He then installed the tee onto the open end of the incoming line, and inserted the lines going to the airbag and sensor into the other two openings. These are simple push fittings – all you have to do is force the line securely into the open end of the tee. If the line does not lock securely on its own, pull the sprung collar out of the tee with your fingers to make it hold.
- To connect to the suspension on the tractor, Vajdic found an unused hole with a plug in it in a suspension air line. After dumping air pressure, he installed a fitting that allowed him to connect a 3/8-inch line to run toward the tractor sensor. While he had materials available to convert this line to the smaller size normally used, Panagapko says you can also substitute a 3/8-inch or 1/4-inch fitting on the bottom of the sensor.
- He then installed the other end of the line into the fitting on the bottom of the sensor.
- The final step in the process is, as with the Air-Weigh system, calibration. Panagapko pointed out that the setting of the fifth wheel should be recorded. This is the setting that should be used if front axle weight is critical, because the system accurately estimates front axle weight from the tandem axle readings. It can't do this accurately if the fifth wheel is moved to a different position. Weigh the rig empty and then loaded, and input all three axle weights for either situation. Then remove a lock pin from the back of the reader so the calibrations cannot be accidentally changed. The reader then shows the weights for all three axles.

For years, cosmetic surgery was viewed as a "women only" procedure..but specialists say men are lining up in growing numbers for cosmetic procedures like botox injections, nose jobs, eye lifts and more. KTEN's Margaret Stokes reports.
The American Society Of Plastic Surgeons reports the number of men having cosmetic procedures has jumped significantly--up 44 percent since 2000.
Over a million men underwent cosmetic surgery procedure last year alone. Botox injections and rhinoplasty are among the most common cosmetic procedures for men. Also high on the list for men are microdermabrasion, laser hair removal, chemical peels, hair transplants, liposuction, and eyelid surgery.
Specialists with OU Physicians say men have always cared about their appearance-it's just become more acceptable to do something about it.
According OU Physicians the typical male cosmetic surgery patient is in his mid thirties to mid-fifties and is usually a working professional.

Realtyna RPL
For U.S./Canada only: In RPL you can add MLS RETS and IDX related fields to prepare your website for any further MLS Integration.
In addition, there are several compatible Real Estate responsive templates available for RPL based website in the Joomla Community.
I don´t know very well to handle Joomla, but the support team is very quick and helps you with every problem, i 'am impressed, Masi helped me several times, in less then 1 month I have a new realestate website thanks to them!
A pleasure to deal with them!
Thank you and Congratulations!
No offense to anyone (I won't name any) but I checked all the open-source software for real estate (even outside Joomla) but was even more happy that this one is in Joomla because I love Joomla!
Realtyna is one of the most flexible and extensible extension I have ever found. Yes, the only thing bad that you would feel about it is that it's expensive but after you purchase it you would find its worth the money with such a quick and helpful support.
The top features that I found are:
1. Multiple measurement and currency units
2. Completely flexible property listing form
3. Completely flexible property search
4. Completely flexible agent profile form
5. Agent listing and search
6. Paid packages support with three payment processors included: Paypal, 2CO & Bank Receipt (Offline Payments)
7. Many many more. Checkout yourself as I cannot write every thing here.
I feel very confident that this would make the developers more motivated and innovative as I do not expect them to go and relax, since they have not only done hard work but still doing.
Keep up and we are following you for more surprises!
- no support for RPL to Falang (and joomfish for J2.x is not ready)
- Falang creator have developed a plugin to RLP but language switcher is not compatible (so.. no language switcher)
- not compatible with any SEF extension (so you can not translate URL, and other...) and that is very very important for SEO
- to expensive (but if you have at least 1000€ to spend, then you are ok)
- every single customization you must do it your self or you will be charged or directed to RPL manual
- assistance is not bad, they indeed respond in 48 hours but they are not friendly (sorry but that is the true!) and they will probably direct you to manual
Spite all of that that, CSS is ok (questionable), functionalities are great... probably the best realty component i haver used but my next choice, for sure, will not be RPL.. price and assistance are mandatory
Thank you for your feedback.
- Multi Language Support
RPL has full multi-language support by Joomfish.
We have never claimed that our extension is compatible with Falang. We clearly mentioned in our website that RPL is compatible with JoomFish and unfortunately it's not available for Joomla 2.5 . We think it's not fair to blame us for this.
Anyway, as non-official statement, we have added the function for Falang Pro version for Joomla 2.5 which is not released yet.
- SEF: RPL have a full support for SEF by it's own engine
SEF extensions seems to be necessary for Joomla 1.0.x and 1.5.x and since Joomla 2.5.x have a full support for SEF, 90% of Joomla users are using Joomla default SEF for their websites which RPL fully supports from the very beginning versions.
In addition property pages generated by RPL, need a different type of SEF management that is taken care of by RPL itself.
- Price:
We do not agree that our solution price is high compared to the quality service and products that we offer. By browsing our website everybody can realize the amount of effort we do in providing ALL the necessary features for Real Estate market. In addition we provide one-to-one support that is very costly for us but very convenient for our clients.
- Customizations:
Of course you cannot find any developer to customize a solution free of charge, unless someone decide to do it as a charity.
As you mentioned there are 2 ways to customize a solution: 1- Paying for the customization 2- Customizing it on your end by using our SDK and manual. Since RPL has complete user manuals and knowledge base articles, developers and webmasters can easily customize RPL for their requirements and many of web developers have done that. Especially design-wise, you can see many websites on our showcase menu that is customized by the web developers.
- Client Relationship:
We have very effective methods for communicating with our clients. As a proof, you can refer to all the feedbacks of some of our previous clients, praising our support.
It is possible that due to language barrier, our non-English speaking clients misunderstand or misinterpret our communications.
Anyway we always try to improve our methods and services. Thank you for your suggestion.
We will release an update to support Falang as you suggested.
Thanks RealtyNA! You're great to work with!
Paul Tinsley,Canary Islands.
Thanks to Reatyna I am now a Pro in real estate business.
Most important : the support is excellent and my answers/issues responded to and resolved promptly
Many thanks to all Realtyna team for this great component
All works were done in a very high professional manner. Support fixed all problems in a few hours.
Component itself is the best product for professional RE companies and agents.
Thank you for your work guys!

This is my 2nd treatment with the miraDry procedure and, just like the 1st time around, my torso/waist experienced swelling 3 days afterwards. My torso feels like it's carrying extra fluid and it would jiggle whenever I walk. Any idea what can be causing this and what treatments can be performed to speed up torso swelling recovery?
What Can Be Causing Torso/waist Swelling After MiraDry Procedure? (photo)
Doctor Answers (1)
MiraDry and compensatory sweating
To date, I have only heard of one patient who developed compensatory sweating after the miraDry procedure and this would be the second case that I am aware of. EVERY and I mean emphatically EVERY procedure or treatment for hyperhidrosis can cause compensatory sweating. Hopefully, it will lesen over time. Compensatory sweating is most well described after sympathectomy but has been observed with topical agents, oral anticholinergic therapy, Botox injection, miraDry and sympathectomy.

Lee's Summit teens kicked off this year's Teen Summer Reading Program (entitled "Own the Night") with a 3 hour Zombie Apocalypse Survival Camp. Teens from all over the city joined us for Zombie trivia, Zombification, and assorted zombie survival exercises.
Beth A.Lee's Summit Branch
As most of you probably know, the Summer Reading Program has officially begun! Library staff at every level work hard to make sure it's a blast every year. Pages reshelve the massive cartloads of books that get returned. Circulation staff check materials in and out, manage accounts, and help with program registration. Reference staff answer questions that range in complexity. Branch managers coordinate schedules to make sure everything gets done in an orderly fashion.
We had a good year, but now school is out for the summer, the seniors have graduated, and our Teen Book Clubs won't meet again until September. This year, the North Platte Jr. High Teen Book Club read: Invisible Lines by Amato
Seventeen-year-old Pierce didn't have a near death experience two years ago when she fell into a pool and drowned in the middle of winter. She didn't see a bright, white light. She wasn't overwhelmed by a sense of peace and love. Pierce didn't experience any of that before she was revived by the doctors at the hospital. But she can't tell anyone that. Because who would believe that she actually went to the Underworld and was taken captive by the overseer of this in-between place where the dead are sorted for eternity, and a guy who calls himself John Hayden?
Sixteen-year-old Hazel may be on a miracle drug for the thyroid cancer that's been killing her since she was thirteen, but if you ask her, the life she is living is not very miraculous.

At our Monday Night Teens at the Library club, we have a great time. We meet every Monday night here at the Library and have between 5 and 20 teens show up for food, fellowship, and fun. One of the "requirements" I have for them is that they have to teach me something or tell me a clean joke. A lot of times they "forget" their assignment, so I have to help them along. If I share a few things, it usually jogs their brains so they can keep it going.

Hoosier Morning (afternoon edition)
Indiana pulled away from Purdue, handing the Boilers their worst-ever loss at Mackey Arena Wednesday night, Dustin wrote.
IU's will to win meant the Boilermakers had no choice but to take Wednesday's whipping, I wrote.
Former Hoosier Devan Dumes is scheduled in court to day on a charge of attempted murder, Dustin wrote.
The IU women's basketball team heads to Purdue tonight looking for its missing offense, Mike wrote.
Purdue coach Matt Painter minced no words in talking about IU's superiority Wednesday night, from the Fort Wayne News-Sentinel.
Indianapolis Chatard guard Joe Fagan has accepted a spot as a preferred walk-on at Indiana, Kyle Neddenriep of the Indianapolis Star reports.
It's Michigan No. 1 and Indiana No. 4 in the power rankings, with Jordan Hulls No. 1 in efficiency on jumpers off the dribble and Trey Burke No. 4, SI.com's Luke Winn writes.
A few days late, but interesting take on Purdue being passed up on the recruiting trail, from Tom Davis of the Fort Wayne News-Sentinel.
Michigan's Jon Horford was effective in his spot start in place of the injured Jordan Morgan against Northwestern, Kyle Meinke of MLive.com wrote.
Indiana delivered a knockout blow against Purdue Wednesday night, so from the Rocky III soundtrack, here's Survivor with "Eye of the Tiger."
Haha Purdue sucks at recruiting and I love it! Can't wait until they can actually challenge us again. Hammons scares me though….dang 30 pts. with foul trouble. Wouldn't wanna see him without foul trouble! We have a tenancy to give guys who aren't really good career nights though (Rob Wilson anyone) :).
Yes, Hammons is a load. But if they'd been calling it both ways, he'd have fouled out well before scoring 30 points. The hacks on Cody, when he's down low, are unbelievable. One time, he went up for the shot and his hand never got above his chest, but the refs called it out-of-bounds on Cody, as if he'd simply dropped the ball. Hammons also committed about six lane violations last night, but the refs were not interested.
IU crushed Purdue in spite of the refs. It will be interesting to see how the game is called in Bloomington and how Hammons does in our house. I don't think you'll see him score 30 in Assembly Hall.

As we get older, there are some things you grow out of. An absolute hatred for coffee, for example. Or that phase of loving everything from Abercrombie & Fitch. Or ah-ha! Wearing bows everywhere (unless you're Snooki, of course).
Something I have yet to really grow out of, though? My fear of needles, as I was so wonderfully reminded of Monday at the doctor's office when a numbing needle was heading straight for my underarm and tears instantaneously started streaming down my face. Not just baby tears. Full-on crocodile.
What am I? One old scaredy cat, that's what.
It's hard to explain. I know, I KNOW! It's just a little needle. I am SO much bigger than this eensy silver stick. I also know that whatever is about to go down will only hurt/sting/tingle for a second. But THAT needle is going into MY arm and it makes me uncontrollably nervous with anxiety. I am out of control and I don't like it.
Every single time, I feel like I'm 6 years old again. I'm instantly brought back to one of the many times where I sat wailing in the doctor's office cuddled in my mothers arm's for a solid 20 minutes before she could calm me down enough to let the doctor give me the Mickey Mouse shaped prick. I guess I could just never understand why Mickey wanted to hurt me when, otherwise, he's so damn friendly.
As a brief side note -- have you ever had a bad prick? You know, the kind that makes you black and blue for days? Ugh, I dread them. Personally, I'm not really into being the experimental patient for the new nurse in training. Don't you think I notice you telling her what to do and when to do it?
Sigh. Okay. I feel a bit better getting all this off my chest. Will I ever really get over this? Eh, probably not. You better believe I'm trying, though.
Do you have a fear of needles? Am I crazy? You can be honest.
Image via blakespot/Flickr
I had a SEVERE phobia to needles. Until I had my first kidney stone attack. I still hate them, but I know they mean the difference between severe pain and pain relief.
I was a big baby when it came to shots/needles until my son was born - I had preeclampsia and the meds I was on before, during, and after his birth meant they had to monitor my blood numbers every hour or two for several days. By the end of that week, I was definitely over it. I now know where all my good and bad sticks are and can even handle being the training dummy for the new kids.
Up until the day I had my first child. I lost a lot that day--modesty, ability to sneeze without crossing my legs, oh, and my fear of needles.
Ah yeah you're crazy lol. needles don't bother me at all.
I hate them also.

About Us
The formation of Cathedral Academy allows the Diocese of Bridgeport to invest in our students, rather than in aging buildings in need of significant repairs. Financial resources used for facilities at some of our existing schools can now be dedicated to the education of our students. The new plan will allow Catholic education to grow.
The creation of Cathedral Academy supports a visionary plan to sustain Catholic education for Bridgeport students of all faiths who wish to attend a Catholic school. Cathedral Academy, together with Kolbe Cathedral High School, with which it will share the St. Augustine campus, is a center for academic excellence and faith-based learning for children from Pre-K through Grade 12. Further, the students of St. Ann and St. Andrew will be able to participate in the academic and co-curricular opportunities based at Cathedral Academy, including programs in conjunction with Kolbe Cathedral High School. Cathedral Academy offers two classes in each grade, encouraging student growth, strong academic programs and improved professional development opportunities for teachers. We are pleased to announce that Mrs. Jo-Anne Jakab, principal of Kolbe Cathedral High School has agreed to serve as the first President of Cathedral Academy while continuing in her current role as principal of Kolbe. We look forward to the emergence of Cathedral Academy as a center for not just students, but for their families through the support of our Catholic community of faith.

My daughter in law had gone ring shopping with her girlfriend and picked out several rings that she wanted to get engaged with. My son sent me a picture of the ring and I went to O.com and found the exact same ring at a much lower price. She loved the ring and they were married June 11, 2011 on the beach at Destin, Florida. Great ring.
it is very pretty and and it really sparkles on my hand wow
Stunning and shimmering diamonds on a sleek white gold.., It has so much dazzle, so much elegance as well. I am in love with my ring.
I am still really extatic about my purchase. I can't beleive the reaction I got when I were it yesterday for the first time. People are amazed by it...and am I. The diamonds are shimmering in a lovely white gold setting. I definately recommend this ring.
My husband gave me this beautiful diamond ring. The setting is amazing and the diamonds are dazzling. It is a really stunning gift he gave me.
I took a chance on this ring because of the low price. I knew from the description that the diamonds were lower quality because of the I2-I3 clarity rating but I was hoping it wouldn't bother me. However, I could easily see the low quality. The diamonds were cloudy or milky looking and they did not reflect the light. They didn't sparkle like I wanted. I was underwhelmed by the ring so I sent it back. Thankfully, the return process was easy.

Does massaging the nose after Rhinoplasty help in eliminating scar tissue and swelling? If so, please explain how.
Will Massaging the Nose After Rhinoplasty Help?
Doctor Answers (17)
Yes, gentle massage after rhinoplasty may help
The nose, especially the skin around the tip, normally swells after rhinoplasty. Most swelling resolves in a few weeks, but the last 20% of nasal swelling takes at least 1 year to resolve.
Gently pressure and massage may be appropriate after rhinoplasty. The bridge, middle, or tip of the nose may be massaged.
Scar tissue softens and swollen tissue is reduced with any massage of the skin. Pressure that is too forceful may shift and move the nasal bones and cartilage.
Steroid injection under the skin may be required to help control swelling, scar, and edema.
Speak to your facial plastic surgeon if nasal massage is appropriate for your particular case.
Avoid Nasal Massage Following Rhinoplasty
Massage After Rhinoplasty
Your plastic surgeon will instruct you on your post-procedure care. Very gentle massaging of the nose after surgery can be an appropriate instruction to help support swelling reduction, but each patients' post-op recommendations are based on the circumstances of their individual procedure.

Massaging your nose after rhinoplasty
In general, it is best not to massage your nose after rhinoplasty as it is possible, although unlikely, that vigorous rubbing or manipulation in the first few weeks could pop a delicate stitch or otherwise disturb the corrections made and affect the cosmetic result. Some people habitually rub the tips of their noses. Recognize that this will not likely ruin the result but may cause more irritation and swelling.
That being said, your nose is not glass after surgery. In fact, it will feel quite stiff and wooden. Rolling over onto your nose during sleep or lightly bumping your nose will not make it end up on the side of your head. So, you don't have to walk around in a bubble after surgery.
After about a month, the skin starts to wrap around the cartilage, and the bone is almost set, so contact to your nose is less likely to cause any shift or problems with healing.
Some surgeons recommend 'nasal exercises' which essentially amount to light lymphatic drainage. These will not be harmful but may not do much either. Instead, we ask patients to tape the nose at night for the first month to help skin contract and push out swelling.
Will Massaging the Nose After Rhinoplasty Help?
I do not recommend massaging the nose after rhinoplasty as there is usually no benefit to this maneuver. The swelling is usually handled by a splint and steristrips. The steristrips may be worn for a month.
Web reference: http://www.drvitenas.com/rhinoplasty.html
Generally, no massaging after Rhinoplasty
Thank you for your question.
The healing process can take months and even up to a year until you see the final results. You want to be careful about not injuring your nose so when it comes to massaging, I would definitely check with your doctor and see what he recommends. Generally, time is the best thing to help with the healing. Massaging is more commonly recommended with all other cosmetic procedures.
Best regards.
Rhinoplasty and massage
I would absolutely not massage the nose after a rhinoplasty. You may disturb some of the work performed. The tissue swelling will take a while to go down, maybe up to a year. You have to be patient.
Leave the nose alone after rhinoplasty
During the rhinoplasty procedure, delicate sutures are placed to hold delicate pieces of cartilage. In addition, the bones may have been fractured and reset in a new position.
There is a fair amount of swelling and healing that takes place and it is typical for that to take 6 months to really improve. These delicate structures can be moved out of place if massaged. I do not recommend massage to my patients post rhinoplasty.
Good luck!
This will not help the healing and can injure the nose if done too soon after surgery. Let nature do what it needs to do.

text: Do you have old, unused, unwanted, or expired medications? Don't flush them down the toilet. Drop them off at the next Drug Take Back Event September 27 at Republic Services (110 NE Walnut). Guidelines for collection events are: Prescription and over-the-counter medications accepted with NO QUESTIONS ASKED. NO needles, sharps, injectibles, epi-pens, IV solutions. NO medical waste. NO illegal drugs like marijuana, cocaine, methamphetamine, etc. Mark out your name or any other identifiable information. Individuals only. Sorry, businesses are not allowed If you can't attend the collection event, you can drop unwanted medications off at a local collection facility such as the Albany Police Department (1117 Jackson St, NE) or Philomath Police Department (1010 Applegate Street). Check this page for updated information on upcoming collection events. Please check this web page again in the spring for more detailed information on collection events in April 2015. What else can you do? Only buy enough medication that you can use before it expires. If you know a friend who uses the same over-the-counter medication, consider combining purchases. If you must discard old medication, place the medicine in a bag and put it in the trash. It will still end up in the environment, but the process of leaching from the landfill will be much slower, and soil organisms may break down some of the chemicals. Consider buying fewer personal care products and using those you do buy sparingly. Never put medicines or leftover personal care products down the toilet unless the label specifically instructs you to do so. When you buy prescription medicine, ask your pharmacist if she can tell you the expiration date from the bulk packaging in addition to the date on the label (always one year from when you purchase the drugs). Ask your pharmacist if the drugs will become dangerous after expiration. Some drugs lose some potency, but can still provide some benefits. PAST EVENTS On Saturday, October 26, 2013, the Drug Enforcement Administration hosted its seventh "National Take Back Initiative." The City of Corvallis participated in this event as well as past events back to 2011. At the most recent event, Corvallis Police Department, Corvallis Public Works, Republic Services, and the OSU College of Pharmacy collected 540 pounds of unwanted medications from 245 Corvallis households. All unwanted medications were converted to electricity in a waste-to-energy incinerator. The Benton County Sheriff's Department hosts spring drug take-back events, and has done so since 2010. Among all seven events, over 2,200 people turned in over 4,100 pounds (over two tons) of unwanted medications. These chemicals were removed from the community to protect public health and the environment. The Oregon Association of Clean Water Agencies estimates that 40% of all prescribed medicine goes unused. Most prescription medication abuse occurs when drugs are obtained from family and friends. As a water, wastewater, and stormwater utility, Corvallis Public Works also is interested in removing these products from our watersheds to protect our drinking water supply and the aquatic organisms that live in our streams and rivers. If you missed out on these events, you can store your old medications until the next event. It is likely that the DEA will announce another collection event for spring 2014. You also may be able to dispose your unwanted medications in a nearby community that hosts a drop box. The closest drop boxes to Corvallis are at the Albany and Philomath Police Departments. The Albany Police Department is located at 1117 Jackson St. SE, and the box is available 24 hours per day every day of the week. The Philomath Police Department is located at 1010 Applegate Street, and the box is available Monday through Friday from 8:00 am to noon and from 1:00 to 4:30 pm. Other drop boxes nearby include Eugene, Newport, Springfield, Salem, and several police agencies in the Portland Metro area. A complete list of drop off sites is available here. New sites are being added frequently, and may not be represented on this list. For more information, e-mail Public Works or call the Corvallis Water Conservation Program at 541-766-6336.

Hi! I'm Nora. I've always had a fascination with crystals. I moved to the beautiful Mediterranean coast last year and discovered some unique and incredible specimens. Did you know that Turkey is a hotspot for crystal mines? Most stones of the world are found here, and there are even some that can't be found anywhere else!
I had been buying these crystals for myself for an entire year, expanding my personal collection and basking in wondrous Mediterranean energies… Then I thought to myself, the rest of the world should experience this — they're missing out! And so I have taken it upon myself to make these fine specimens available to you, via Etsy.

In an appearance today at the Heritage Foundation, U.S. Rep. Allen West, a conservative Republican freshman from Florida and a former Army officer, was asked about the impact of "social experimentation" on our military, an apparent reference to the abolition of the "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy.
West responded (see the 30-minute mark in the video below):
"Let me put it very simple, the United States' military exists to win the nation's wars. When you join the military, it takes individual behavior and conforms it the military. Now, if we start to have a perspective and belief in this nation that the military conforms to individual behavior, then we have lost the understanding of what it means to be in the United States military. The rules are very clear in the United States military. If you don't want to abide by the rules of the United States military, then don't join.
But the U.S. military is not there as a social experiment and for those who will sit up there and

How much stuff does one man need?
Are 47 shirts, 14 sweaters, a pile of shoes and all those comic books really necessary?
This post comes from J.D. Roth at partner blog Get Rich Slowly.
It seems like every time I travel, I come home committed to win my war on stuff. This time was no different. I lived out of a single carry-on bag while vacationing in Belize recently, and even that felt luxurious. Now I've returned to a house packed with doodads and gewgaws, knickknacks and baubles.
The more I purge stuff from my life, the more I travel, and the more I see (and read) about how little others need to get by, the stronger my conviction to reduce what I own. I'm in awe of my friend Leo from Zen Habits, for instance. At his secondary blog, mnmlist, Leo has been chronicling his attempt to reduce the number of thing he owns. At first, this was his 100 Things Challenge (he wanted to own just 100 personal items). Recently, he's upped the ante. It's now a 50 Things Challenge. Wow.
I'm not ready to go to this extreme -- not even close. But I am beginning to wonder: How many T-shirts does one man need? How many jackets? How many books? And how in the heck did I end up with more than 10 pairs of shoes? Ridiculous! How much stuff does one man really need?
Small steps
Over the past three years, I've made great strides in ridding my life of stuff. I've sold or given away thousands of books (yes, thousands). I've purged a garage full of computer parts. I've managed to turn off the rationalization switch in my brain and learned to simply donate my stuff to charity instead of saving it for "someday." And about a year ago, I started my slow-motion clothes purge.
- Bing: George Carlin on "stuff"
Based on a Get Rich Slowly reader suggestion, I moved all of my sweaters and button-down shirts to an unused closet. For the past several months, I've gradually pulled one shirt and then another into my regular closet as I actually wear them. Unworn shirts and sweaters stay in their temporary holding space. At the end of this process (which should be in June), all of the shirts I've worn in the past year will be in one closet, and the stuff I don't wear will be purged.
Do you know how many different shirts I've worn over the past nine months? I just went upstairs to count. My "good" closet contains 17 button-down shirts and three sweaters. My closet of unused clothes contains 30 shirts (two of which haven't even been taken out of their packaging) and 11 sweaters.
Sometimes I think I'm the village idiot. I don't even wear two-thirds of my wardrobe? It's like I'm just throwing my money away. But rather than beat myself up over this, I can use the information going forward.
For example, Kris and I made a trip to REI before leaving for Belize. I fell in love with one shirt, but I almost didn't buy it after looking at the price tag. Forty dollars? For a shirt? Get real! I rarely spend more than $20. But then I realized: If I really love the shirt and it'll live in my "good" closet, then spending $40 is much better than buying two cheap shirts I never wear. I bought the REI shirt in two colors (rust and aqua), and I'm glad I did. (But maybe I should get rid of two other shirts from my "good" closet to make up for this.)
I've begun to realize it'll take a few more years to finally get rid of the worst of my stuff. It took me two decades to acquire these things; it'll take a bit of time to unload it. But how will I know when I'm finished? How much stuff does one man need?
The magic of thinking small
It was interesting to see how small the average homes were in Belize and Guatemala. In the U.S., the average new home was 2,349 square feet in 2004 (up from 1,695 square feet in 1974). In Central America, homes seemed to be maybe 600 or 700 square feet,
Seeing those small homes made me think: What would I choose to own if my space were limited? Could I really rationalize my comic book collection? Forty-seven button-down shirts and 14 sweaters? Two bicycles? My burgeoning pile of shoes? Which stuff is worth owning, and which is not? And if it's not worth owning in a small home, why is it worth owning in a large home?
I don't know the answer to these questions; I'll continue to puzzle them out.
This weekend, one of our neighbors held a yard sale. Kris and I went across the street to chat. "Wow," Kris said. "It looks like you're selling everything." She scooped up the neighbor's canning jars.
"In a way, I am," our neighbor said. "I'm moving into a smaller place, and I have a couple of weeks before I have to be out of this one. I've already moved everything I want to keep, and I'm selling everything else."
"That's awesome," I said. "I wish I could do that."
But who says I can't? Why can't I pretend that I'm moving into a smaller place? If I did, what would I keep? What is it I really value? How much stuff does one man really need?

Is Tesla's Rally a Matter of Irrational Exuberance?
By Lior Cohen - August 16, 2013 | Tickers: NSANY.PK, TSLA, TM
I have recently came across an interesting article in the Fool's network regarding the valuation of Tesla Motors (NASDAQ: TSLA) and if investing in the company's stock is prudent. This made me think about the staggering growth of Tesla's stock during the year (nearly 330%), which raises some questions about the value of Tesla. for instance, is this company's valuation off the charts?

The High-End Electric Car Market Just Got Serious
By Reuben Brewer - August 14, 2013 | Tickers: BAMXY, NSANY.PK, TSLA
Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA) has had a virtual lock on the high end of the electric car market until now. The Volt, Leaf, and Prius all target the lower end. But BMW's (NASDAQOTH: BAMXY) new i3 is squarely aimed at Tesla's core customer.

The Newest Trend for Japan's Big 3
By Will Chavey - August 13, 2013 | Tickers: F, GM, HMC, NSANY.PK, TM
Recently, I wrote about why I think General Motors (NYSE: GM)'s cost-cutting strategies will drastically improve its bottom line. Apparently, Japanese automakers agree. During the first half of 2013, each member of Japan's "Big 3" announced plans to adopt strategies similar to those that GM recently began.
What GM started
Rival automakers Ford (NYSE: F) and Volkswagen actually headlined the movement, with Ford's cost-cutting measures set to more »
Tesla Shouldn't Laugh At the i3
By Sam Mattera - August 13, 2013 | Tickers: BAMXF, NSANY.PK, TSLA
On Tesla's (NASDAQ: TSLA) recent earnings call, CEO Elon Musk openly laughed at BMW's (NASDAQOTH: BAMXF) new electric car, the i3.
To be fair, the i3 is hardly comparable to Tesla's Model S -- the former is a mid-priced electric car, the later is a high-performance luxury vehicle.
But Tesla benefits from the introduction of more plug-in hybrids, and should vigorously applaud BMW's decision to produce a more »
The Mantle for Electric Car Supremacy Is up for Grabs
By Awais Malik - August 12, 2013 | Tickers: F, NSANY.PK, TSLA
The electric car is catching on due to increased competition among automakers. Furthermore, the trend of electric vehicles is also becoming increasingly realistic as recharging infrastructure and innovative technologies to reduce charging time are introduced. At the moment, numerous iterations of electric and gasoline powered cars are also available on the market, which makes the fuel-cost eradicating electric option very attractive.
In a Risky Market, Safe Stocks Are Often not the Answer
By Will Chavey - August 8, 2013 | Tickers: HINOY, NSANY.PK, TM
It's no secret that investors often look for "safer" investments during periods of uncertainty. And so, as investors and analysts approach the upcoming months with a combination of trepidation and cautious optimism, many investors may start to move toward those low-risk stocks. Here's the catch, though: That's not always a good move.
What makes an investment "safe?" Presumably, when it's less risky. For example, a savings more »
Strong Sales in July Call for a Look at Japanese Car Stocks
By Awais Malik - August 5, 2013 | Tickers: HMC, NSANY.PK, TM
With a weaker yen, Japanese car manufacturers now have a competitive advantage in pricing their feature-packed cars in the American market. That being said, growth potential is slowly drifting away from the developed world and towards the developing economies. At a time when woes surround the European car manufacturers amid disappointing sales and slow growth, the Japanese car manufacturers are mounting a solid challenge.

After All the Hoopla, Why Rush For an Electric Car?

When Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA) first turned a profit it was a good buy. Now, after a massive share price advance, it's overpriced. Nissan's (NASDAQOTH: NSANY.PK) decision to delay its own high-end all-electric auto is proof.

Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA) has been on the rise in the past 4 months.

The Market Loves Tesla, but Analyst Opinions Are Mixed

No doubt about it, Tesla Motors (NASDAQ: TSLA) is the market's hottest stock. Up over 245% this year alone the company has made some investors very rich -- but after these gains, the stock and the company look overvalued. At current prices the company trades at 133 times forward earnings and nearly 80 times book value, for a value investors like me, these numbers appear unbelievable.

Tesla Motors: 3 Bear Arguments That Should Hibernate

Victoria Beckham rose to fame as Victoria Adams, one fifth of The Spice Girls, better known as Posh Spice.
Fresh out of performing arts college, Victoria landed a place in a fledgling girl band called the Spice Girls. Little did she know they would go on to become the biggest girl band of all time, their first single Wannabe went to number one in a whopping 29 countries.
After the Spice Girls split, Posh dabbled with a solo career, reaching no.2 with Out of Your Mind featuring Dane Bowers.
However, it's in the fashion industry where she really found her feet, designing initially for brands such as Rock and Republic before designing her own labels, dVb denim and Victoria Beckham, worn by the likes of Nicole Scherzinger and Cameron Diaz.
A fact to prove her fashion credentials: Victoria once appeared on the cover of fashion bible Vogue three times in one year.
Victoria met her hubby, footballer David Beckham in 1997. She famously let the world know his 'Golden Balls' nickname during an appearance on Parkinson.
Posh and Becks married in an amazingly lavish ceremony in which they each had a throne, and later moved into a Herfordshire mansion which became known as Beckingham Palace.
They have four children together. Brooklyn Joseph was born on 4 March 1999 in London, Romeo James followed on 1 September 2002 and was also born n London. On 20 February 2005 the family welcomed their third son Cruz David, and on 10 July 2011 the Beckhams welcomed their little girl Harper Seven.
Their marriage was rocked in 2004, when their PA Rebecca Loos claimed that Becks had an affair with her while the couple were living in Madrid. However, David denied this and Victoria has even said the rumours eventually made their marriage stronger.
Due to David's football, the pair have moved around and in 2007 they moved to L.A. where Posh got right in with the Hollywood crowd, mixing with Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise, Will and Jada Pinkett Smith to namedrop a couple. Victoria even appeared as a guest judge on American Idol, however to mixed reviews.

Today is National Radio Day, a day designed to commemorate the amazing technology that is so ubiquitous it's hard to conceive of a time that it didn't exist. As we use our cellphones to surf the internet and watch movies, send text messages with emoticons, and sometimes even make calls, it seems almost incomprehensible that we are benefitting from technology that is less than 100 years old. But the technological advances of the 20th century truly boggle the mind, and today's posting celebrates the radio, which revolutionized the world as we know it, and has led to the communication we routinely take for granted.
The story of the invention of radio is a complex one, involving dozens of inventors over the years. Beginning with theories of electromagnetism in the first years of the 19th century and ending at the turn of the 20th with Edison, Tesla, and Marconi each making steps toward the successful production of wireless communication, first utilized for the telegraph, which transmitted simple information in code to receivers.
The earliest use for wireless transmission occurred in the first few decades of the 20th century, and consisted mainly of information for ships. After the tragedy of the Titanic sinking in 1912, onboard wireless communication became standard on all ships.
What we think of when we think of "Radio" began in earnest in the 1920s, with radio stations being owned by large city department stores or newspapers (a basic example is the radio station WGN, right here in Chicago, broadcasting live orchestral recordings, and then later in the decade experimenting with dramatized scripts). "Soap Operas" were so named because the sponsors and early creators of such programs were soap companies, who dramatized domestic events and romantic situations that incorporated the sponsor's product into the storyline. By the end of the 1920s, Radio was the dominant entertainment medium of the country, with national networks, advertising departments, and powerhouse transmitters broadcasting for literally hundreds of miles in any direction. The term "broadcasting" originally referred to the casting of seeds on a farm over a wide expanse of land, before it took on the more common usage of communication technology we associate it with today.
Science and technology went hand-in-hand, and developments in transistors, Frequency modulation (FM), and recording technology changed the way entertainment was broadcasted, received, and consumed by the public. In the early 1950s the new technology of television (which operated on the same principles, but with visual information as opposed to simply audio) began supplanting radio. The Golden Age of Radio was over by the early 1960s, and the rise of popular prerecorded music changed the format to mostly news and talk, or popular music playback.
In 1912, radio transmissions existed, but they were extraordinarily limited to various experimenters working independently of each other, and a few scientists here and there. Within a decade an entire industry would surface, providing innovations in technology, entertainment, advertising, and communication, that lead in a line to computers and the internet and cellular wireless access we enjoy today. Perhaps the next time our Iphones take longer than 5 seconds to load a webpage, we will remember how far we have come, and marvel at how much Americans of 2112 will remember of the technology of today.

New Doctor Who DVDs for North America
It's a stateside Doctor Who DVD bonanza!
Come the 28th May, fans will be able to get their hands on both Doctor Who Series 7: Part 2 and Doctor Who: The Snowmen and then later in the year, we're going back in time with Doctor Who: The Doctors Revisited – a look back at the first four Doctors through some of their most iconic episodes.
The Series 7: Part 2 box set comes with all eight episodes from this current run, with the extras yet to be confirmed.
However, BBC America has recently updated their listing for the set, removing the Christmas special The Snowmen from its listing and all the extras excluding the prequel episode to The Bells of Saint John.
While the Amazon listing here still states that the Christmas Special is included in the set, it might be worth holding fire on that pre-order until the full listing for the box set have been official confirmed.
However, if you just want the Doctor's Christmas run-in with the Great Intelligence then The Snowman is also available to pre-order now for $12.99 with unconfirmed extras set to include the two prequel episodes, The Great Detective and Vastra Investigates, as well as Clara's White Christmas, a short making of all about the Doctor's festive adventures.
Then in July, it's time to take a look back at some of the first four Doctors greatest adventures in the Doctor Who: The Doctor's Revisited.
The set features the first four special documentaries broadcast by BBC America for William Hartnell, Patrick Troughton, Jon Pertwee and Tom Baker, with each accompanied by the story that illustrated them at their best; The Aztecs, Tomb of the Cybermen, Spearhead from Space and Pyramids of Mars.
As a bonus, each story will feature an introduction by current lead writer and executive producer, Steven Moffat.
Doctor Who Series 7: Part 2 is released on May 28th an is available to pre-order from Amazon US for just $19.99, a 20% discount on the RRP! Available on the same day, Doctor Who: The Snowmen is also available to pre-order from Amazon US for just $12.99.
Finally, Doctor Who: The Doctors Revisited is set from release on 16th July and US readers can order from Amazon for just $33.98.
One Response to New Doctor Who DVDs for North America
Even though I have every classic story they will likely play for The Doctors Revisited already on DVD, I'm willing to get these DVD sets because the documentaries are quite good. Plus it doesn't hurt to have backup copies of certain classics.
