morning all! i havent had any of the complications you have theresa but i just wanted to say i hope things go well for you this time and that your next scan is clear xx
Posted 22 October 2009 - 01:46 PM
Hello again,
Theresa - that sounds awfully scary. I hope that everything goes smoothly this pregnancy for you. Good luck with the next appt.
AFM: my husband's just been transferred interstate so we have about 6 weeks to get the house ready for sale and move. We'll be going back to where our family are, so that's good, but I'm finding it really tough trying to sort everything out - cleaning, gardening, painting, organising repairs with my increasingly uncomfortable tummy, continuing morning sickness and trying not to go too far and cause another bleed. I'm not supposed to be doing any lifting or 'exercise' which is just impossible in the circumstances. I keep having nightmares about waking up bleeding and am just so tired all the time. And the 'no sex' rule isn't helping either of us. I'm feeling a little overwhelmed by it all today. On top of it all I'm quite stressed about having to find a new obstetrician at this late stage! I don't even know if that's possible. And they won't know my history.
Plus my DD was enrolled for preschool next year, and now I find the state we're going to doesn't have preschool anymore! And she's too young by 2 weeks for prep. I know it will all be worth it when its done, but at the moment I'm quite stressed. I'm thinking I really chose the wrong year to get pregnant again. I just never thought I'd have problems, as silly as that sounds. I guess no one ever does until it happens.

munsy - what a awful time you have had. I guess it wouldnt be such a bad thing to be hospitalised, i just hope for you this bub can stick around and you get past 22 weeks this time.
36isnotoold - glad to hear your doppler went well. What kind of blood flow probs are you having?? I wouldnt imagine they are too serious if the docs are waiting till 28 weeks to check again. I am having my doppler on Wednesday. My papp-a was similar to yours .29 so I would not be surprised at all if I have a simialr result. Had a scan last week though and growth was 1 week ahead, so no issues of a small bub yet.
sparkly - hope you are doing ok, but dont over do it! No matter how much needs to be done...leave it to DH or just do little bits at a time. Can you get some of your medical records yourself to take to whatever OB you choose?
afm - quiet time here, been shopping alot! I waited till about 16 weeks before I bought even 1 little thing so I have had some catching up to do! Feeling lots of movements now, more like kicks. Belly is getting bigger, never been this big at 22 weeks! I have put on more weight this time too. With my first DS I put on 9kg for the whole pregnancy and lost 3.5kg with DS2. This time I have put on 6kg already!! I am hoping that this is a good sign and bubs will be big not IUGR!!!!!
Posted 29 October 2009 - 10:55 AM
Hi ladies
I had my doppler test yesterday. Everything is fine, placenta is healthy and blood is flowing as normal. Doc does not expect any possible complications till after 32 weeks now. So I can relax for 8-9 weeks, then the monitoring & scans start!
Hope you are all well.
Posted 29 October 2009 - 10:58 AM
hi bluestar. glad your doppler went well! i had my OB appt yesterday and she said she doesnt expect any problems as its all on track so far. once i have a followup scan at 28 weeks, if nothings changed, i will be able to go on less frequent checks too.
Posted 23 November 2009 - 11:07 AM
just checking in to see how you are all going.......... have my 28 week scan and ob appt wed, went to gp today to get the results of my GT test so i had them to take with me, expecting nothing , only to be told i have high results and have to have further tests tomorrow. he would be surprised if i dont have it so thats one more thing to add to the list. oh well. could be worse i guess. hopefully the tests tomorrow come back ok
Posted 23 November 2009 - 05:41 PM
36isnotold: Good luck with the GD test tomorrow. Have you had to carb load (normally you have to carb load for several days prior). It's not a fun test from what I hear as you're there for hours!
I'm not looking forward to it myself (Ob not letting me take the 1hr test and instead have to go straight for the long one).
AFM: still waiting to hear whether our sample from Friday was big enough. Going in for a heart rate check via doppler on Wed.
Posted 24 November 2009 - 05:28 AM
hi earthangel. i had to fast before this one...... i normally eat alot of carbs anyway so im not sure if i have to do that one as well or not? they did say i would be there for several hours! hopefully your sample was enough and you dont have to go for amnio as well! once is enough . fingers crossed for you xx
Posted 27 November 2009 - 08:37 AM
36isnotold - I hope your scan went well. I guess you would be having the 2 hour GD test?? With DS1, I had high results, went on to the 2hr test and all was fine...so dont stress too much. I am interested to know what happens next for you...as I am just a few days behind you and our stories are very similar.
AFM - Had my GD test this week, just the 1 hr one. Will get the results at my next OB appointment on Thursday. I am supposed to start ultrasould monitoring at 32 weeks but as I am 32 weeks over Xmas/Boxing day week doc thinks it will be very hard to schedule a scan then. The following week I will be away, so if we put it off I wont be having a scan until 34 weeks!! Definately not comfortable with that! Hopefully I can get a scan at 31 weeks instead, will know at next weeks appt anyway.
I hope all of you high risk mummies are well and babies are growing fine!!
Posted 27 November 2009 - 02:07 PM
hi bluestar...... no GD for me! blood flow still going ok and bub is growing well so i am having another scan at 34 weeks, 6th jan. im allowed to go to my gp for the next month so i dont have to drive all the way to the city which is great. i would be asking for the scan earlier rather than later if i was you. hope all continues well xx
Posted 21 December 2009 - 02:38 PM
Hi all
Just a quick pop in. Im now 30 weeks. Last week I was diagnosed with GD, so just another thing to add to the list! Have managed to keep my sugars under control since with diet so hopefully I wont need to go on insulin. Had a scan on Thursday too, everything was fine, blood flow was normal. Bubs is measuring a little bigger than average but not huge...which is nice to hear because my other 2 were IUGR. They have booked me in for my next scan at 36 weeks, im a little worried that this is too far away. DS was born at 37 weeks and almost died from oxygen restriction. Going to the GD clinic tomorrow and will ask the doc there.
36isnotold-good luck with your scan, glad to hear everything is going well.
Posted 22 December 2009 - 07:54 AM
hi bluestar, i hope they book you in a bit earlier for the next scan, even if it is just to ease your mind. let me know how you go xx
Posted 20 January 2010 - 08:49 AM
Hi girls wondering if I could join the group. I have a high risk pregnancy for several reasons I have diabetes, graves disease, lupus and a clotting disorder + added last week an incompetant cervix now with a cerclage (rescue cerclage in at 19 weeks).
Would love to get to know you all.
Posted 22 January 2010 - 05:36 AM
Hi everyone
I hope your bubs are doing well.
ozbilby - Welcome & congrats you are half way there! Is this your first pregnancy? I guess you would be having lots of scans & appointments too.
36isnotold - how are you going? Any news yet? I ended up getting the scan only 1 week earlier, had it yesterday!
AFM - Well since my last post, I thought I had my GD under control. That only lasted & week till they put me on insulin injections But I am so used to it now, doesnt hurt either, the finger pricking hurts more.
Been having ctg monitoring every 3 days, everything is always perfect. Had my 35 week growth scan yesterday and the blood flow is slowing a little so doc wants to deliver in less than 2 weeks just to be on the safe side. I have to be admitted for 2 days prior to the c-sect for steriods, will be 36w 5d when bubs is born. Until then its still CTG monitoring & u/s every 3 days
Posted 28 January 2010 - 09:08 AM
Hi guys,
i have been for a little while now since being in hospital and have found your posts so encouraging i thought i would write one and join in :-)
I have been diagnosed with Placenta Prevea, and didnt think too much of it at first. I have had c-sections in the past and thought well its not going to be too bad as i already need to have a ceasar regardless. Well last well at 28 weeks i had to be rushed to hospital due to bleeding and then during the week they thought i might be going in to labour but a scan showed that there was plenty of fluid around the bubs and he isnt in a hurry to come out. The bleeding subsided and i have been home again for the past 2 days. My ob is amazing and has said that each day is a step forward but if i do have a bleed even a tiny one or any fluid loss then i have to go straight back in, he expects that at some stage i will have to go in early but our aim is to deliver at 37-38 weeks.
Its been a nightmare, i have 4 young children, ages 9,7,5 & 4 and hubby has to look after them all the time (he is an amazing hubby!!) and i have been nice and strong for all of them but i cant help sometimes breaking down and feeling really lost.
Thanx all for listening :-) i really appreciate it. hope your all having a lovely day xoxo

Not sure if this is the right place for my question so please redirect me if there's somewhere more appropriate. I'm not really sure if my situation constitutes high risk pregnancy as I am only 8w4d My question is about testing,specifically cvs vs an amnio. I can explain more if I am in the right place.
Posted 14 May 2010 - 03:32 PM
Hi all,
Hope I've found the right buddy group for my situation - let me know if there's somewhere else I should be. I'm 13 wks pregnant with number 2 and had some antibodies to the K (kell) blood antigen show up in my blood test - which means I don't carry the antigen (ie I'm K-), but i've been exposed to it through giving birth to my first son (who we now know is K+ inherited from his dad) and my body has produced antibodies against it. Yesterday we got my partner's blood tests back which confirmed he is indeed K+. It looks like from the results he's actually homozygous K+ which if true means this bub definately is too. If anyone is good at interpreting phenotype results let me know and i'll run his results past you!
Basically this means ( assuming my GP is correct about my partner being homozygous and therefore guaranteeing that bub is K+) antibodies in my blood will (possibly already are) crossing the placenta and attacking the red blood cells of the baby, and actually interfering with the baby producing red blood cells in the bone marrow - really not good for bubs. It's similiar to Rh, but apparently there's no shot for it, so it's a lot more serious.
From the research I've done on the net (and we all know that the internet ALWAYS tells the truth, don't we...), best case scenario - we get monitored closely, bub doesn't get too anaemic, we most likely have to get induced or have a ceasar about 2 weeks before the bubs due date, and the bub probably comes out a bit anaemic and jaundiced and might need a blood transfusion and some time in the special care nursery under the lights for the jaundice.
Worst case scenario (other than bub not making it of course) is that bub does get too anaemic, we have to have some in utero blood transfusions, and bub has come out very early.
We had decided to have a private midwife for this pregnancy, but now of course we need an OB. I called an OB yesterday who specialises in high risk pregnancies and they're going to 'triage' us once they get my info from my GP and let us know if and when we can get in with her. So I have yet to talk to a medical professional who has a clue about this - it's pretty rare so my GP really didn't know much.
So anyone else out there with this or another blood antigen problem?
Posted 19 June 2010 - 08:32 AM
Hi Ladies
I don't mean to intrude, not even sure if this is the right place to really post.
But I'm desperately looking for a hi risk ob in bris or sunshine coast area. Preferably one that has a good rep with cervical stitches (MacDonald clearge)
Ok bit of history
in 07 we feel pregnant with our daughter, I had had several miscarriages and a still born at 32weeks.
Beginning of pregnancy with Caitlyn was pretty rough lots of bleeding lots of nurses etc saying there's no way you're still preg etc so each time then sent me for an ultrasound and sure enough there was a little blip on the screen.
At 14weeks I changed gp's and he sent me straight to the ob at the hospital (we were in mt isa)
From then it was bad news well at the time I thought so
My cervix was shortening and membranes were bulging. I quit work and went on bed rest.
At 16 week I went back and my cervix was the around the same but in saying that I think he was saying it was only 2.5 cm??
The next day I felt a little weird and went to er to get check. My cervix was dilating and the ob told us it was up to us try the rescue stitch and I may still be pregnant next day or don't and I will deliver with no chance.
I had a rescue stitch place under GA. I woke with pain and a mild temp etc so I stayed 5 days and then was sent home on really strict bed rest. I did nothing! Was in n out of hospital mainly because I snuck in the odd Gloria jean's coffee and bub would be jumping around opps
At 26 weeks I went mt isa I think the ob was glad to see me go lol.
27 weeks I ended up in Bundy hospital after a morning of gentle shopping just feeling weird and pain in the top my legs. I was flown to RBWH and from then on I seen drs after drs and eventually made it to 30 weeks before they took my stitch and I delivered (apparently now I have 2 small tear on my cervix the ob and gp always commented on the smiley face shape sorry about TMI lol). Caitlyn stayed in special care in bris for 4 weeks and then in bundy special care for another 3 before coming home.
Anyway the whole reason for this long post is the ob I seen last year before I was pregnant just to discuss possibilities etc made the comment that if he was my ob last time he would not have put a rescue stitch in!!
He did say to me that he would consider a stitch early in preg however he doesn't do it under GA just a local?? Does this sound odd?
I'm considering flying back to isa to see my old ob as much as I hated him at the time and thought he was awful n rude every dr we seen said he was the only reason I was still preg and we should be thanking him for our little girl. His stitch was tight and I was had pressure but now that I look back I'm glad it was so tight.
I'm open to anyone's suggestions or ideas ob or just general hi risk preg etc.
Ps we are looking at the mater mothers for delivery or royal women's

Hi im another oe who ist who is not sure if this i the right place to post this.
I had a 1/30 risk of ntd at 15wk blood test morphology scan showed bub appeared normal. Was told id have routine growth scans at 28, 32 and 36 wks cos of this.
At the 28 wk scan my fluid was 24.5 just over normal and was decided id have another scan in 2 weeks to cjeck fluid again.
My fluid levels at last scan last week was 26 anything over 24 is considereed "High".
My gp sent me to see an ob at the lyell mac today and i was in his room for about 5mins he checked fundal height and blood pressure bubs heartbeat and that was it. Said the fluid was nothing to worry about, cos bub looks fine on the scans.
Which is good, but wondering why one doc is concerned about it and another isnt?
Not sure what to think now.
My GT was normal and bubs is measuring normal size for dates.
Anyone else had high fluid b4?
My gp said it could mean premature labour or bub not swallowing properly.

Posted 12 August 2010 - 06:30 PM
babysaurs - I had high fluid before and my OB thought I was having a big baby, the 32 week scan which I insisted upon showed abnormalities which were not good. I won't go into the details but I was measuring about 5 weeks ahead basically because my son couldn't swallow.
If your scans are fine then in all likelihood your baby is okay. One thing I have learned is that I will never be scanned by someon who is not a trained Obstetrician with a Sonology qualification.
Posted 17 August 2010 - 11:47 AM
Not sure if anyone is still in this thread?
Just been told bubs has an echogenic lung lesion, will be testing on tues to determine the kind and severity. Been told i'll be having at least 2 weekly scans from now on though.As far as we know everything else is normal at this stage...
Posted 14 October 2010 - 08:41 PM
Hi, I am 20 weeks pregnant and have a VERY rare bone marrow disease. There are only 12 recorded cases of women with my disease being pregnant (worldwide) and so I am pretty much in uncharted territory.
Just wondering if anyone else is or has been pregnant with a very very rare disease and how they coped with the stress.
Also wondering whether anyone else out there has suffered anaphylaxis in pregnancy?

It looks like this thread is a little bit dead, but I was one of the original members and it was a great help at the time.
I have severe congenital heart defects (l-TGA) and have an implanted pacemaker. Various drugs and the pacemaker help me maintain a pretty good level of health, although I do have some leaking in my valve which will need to be replaced eventually.
I have one son, and my partner has two adult children (and a grand-daughter), and am now unexpectedly pregnant - 14 weeks. Last pregnancy was a massive planned stage show, with the WCH (Adelaide) deciding I was too high risk to be there and having to go to Flinders. The pregnancy went well for me cardiac wise, although I developed Obstetric Cholestasis at around 29 weeks and he arrived via c-section at 36w+3.
So, this time I'm hoping to stay at WCH for the duration due to the fact that I was fine heart wise last time, and apparently some of their procedures have changed. I'm frankly terrified of FMC, the experience last time was incredibly traumatic. I've seen somebody each week since 9 weeks, between the Ob, the medical Ob, my cardiologist and the high risk team.
Anybody else around?

The Smart Museum's upcoming show "Heartland" is based on a cheesy stunt. Curators from the Smart and the Netherlands' Van Abbemuseum trekked out to backwaters like Detroit and Kansas City to find out what sort of art those crazy middle Americans are up to. (Leave it to a Chicago institution to package its neighbors as outsider artists.) What they discovered is what a lot of us already knew: that the region has a strong tradition of collective and communal art making. Detroit-based Design 99, for example, is represented by a boat sculpture assembled with the help of independent art spaces throughout the midwest, and Kansas City's Whoop Dee Doo—known for its live events featuring local talent and lots of audience participation—will perform a kid-friendly dance and variety show (10/2, 5 PM-10 PM) at Hyde Park's own venerable community art space, Experimental Station. I'm particularly looking forward to seeing the installation by Carnal Torpor, a KC art collective that makes klutzy, burpy grindcore music when they're not creating collages indebted equally to Pushead and Day of the Dead ofrendas. The group—which will build the installation, Purifications of the CalmDome, and also conduct performance workshops during a residency at Chicago's InCUBATE (9/6-9/27)—has an aesthetic I appreciate not so much because it's weird as because it seems familiar and right. But then, I live here. Opens Thu 10/1. Through 1/17, Smart Museum of Art, University of Chicago, 5550 S. Greenwood, 773-702-0200, smartmuseum.uchicago.edu. —Noah Berlatsky

Ottawa finished as runner up tied with Washington with 996 total points, continuing a streak of success in the state competition.

Eight out of nine ensembles received Division 1 honors. Ottawa High's Concert-Treble Choir, Vocal Jazz group and Jazz Society also recieved co-"Best of Day" Awards, signifying they were the best choirs heard during the weekend's competition.
Ottawa has won 22 state music titles, including a string of 21 titles in 23 years. This marks the 35th time in the last 38 years the music department has been one of the top three music departments in Illinois.

When asked why publish books - we go to the personal stories of those who have been helped and there are many. Here is a story told to our staff in Ukraine.
Elena was given one of the recent our recent publications, Wounded Children Healing Homes, by Jayne Schooler and Betsy Keefer. We had this book translated into Russian and published in Ukraine and have distributed it in Ukraine, Kyrgyzstan, Russia and even Kazakhastan.
This story tells it all - Elena sent this to us:
My name is Elena Novikova, I live in Ukraine. I am 54 years. I am a trained psychologist, since 2006 an adoptive parent.
In March of 2012, I went through an adoption crisis. But I realized it only after reading "Wounded Children Healing Homes" book.
In 2006 we have adopted a little girl. She was four and half years old. 20 days later we also adopted a boy. Both of them had obvious attachment disorders, less with the boy, he caused almost no problems. But the girl, as it appeared later had serious attachment disorders. She always wanted to get away from us, boycotted any house work, never cleaned up after herself, did not want to do her school home work and all she wanted to do was to go out and hang out on the street. Her close friends including
my husband and I, got stolen money and were lied to all the
time. She was stealing from the pockets of jackets in school locker room. She
had no moral ethics and did whatever she wanted. I had to change five schools
because of her behavior, and she continues stealing. In January of 2012 it got
worse. She kept stealing and lying and then insisted to leave our family
and go to another one. I took her hand and brought to a social service agency
to the inspector, then was she sent to a government shelter to wait until
I could apply for adoption disruption. We could see how our adopted son was
suffering too. He was a good student, tried to help and when our adopted
daughter offered to him to leave our family too, he refused and told her that
he likes our family and he is happy here.
A week after I took our daughter to a government shelter, I started to doubt whether I was right with what I did. Before that, I visited psychologists and doctors, to find out what I was doing wrong with our child, and why there was so much tension between us. No one could really tell us or write a diagnosis of mental retardation or physical disorder of the central nervous system.
I could see a lot of controversy in what was happening plus I could feel like my physical strength was leaving me. One day, I came across the book "Wounded Children Healing Homes" which describes how traumatized children affect foster and adoptive families. I began to read every single line eagerly, and finally I found answers to all the dead-end questions that nobody else could answer before. I realized that the crisis of adoption is OK an expected thing, and I have to work on it instead of applying for adoption disruption. I began to understand my daughter's behavior and myself. This information was exactly what I was looking for. Where else I could find out about what is happening with adoptive families in situations like mine and why adoptive families begin to treat their children bad though like never attend to do it? I finally relaxed and all things fell into places. I let my daughter be herself and tried not to look at her through her character and realized I could not do anything to change it. I began to look at her as someone that has psychological traumas. With that confidence I went to Children Service and asked them to return my child. It was not easy, because Children Servcice has already held a meeting where they made decision that could not be a candidate for adoption of this girl again. Based on the facts and I read and studied that were described in the book, I was able to prove that my family had been going through a crisis of adoption and instead of adoption disruption and separation both my daughter and I need to be helped. I was heard, and I took the girl back from the shelter where she was already getting familiar with new candidate families.
I thank the authors of this book, and whoever was involved in helping to publish it and I wish them a long and fruitful life. May God bless you, you are doing amazing work!

I oftentimes wondered how people could travel to Thailand year after year. It seemed like such a boring choice to always go back to the same place when the world has so much to offer. all over the place.
But after three weeks in the country, I think I kinda understand. We flew in to the country with absolutely no plans other than that at some stage we wanted to visit good friends of ours on the Phi Phi islands. We never travelled far, keeping it all within a very small area of southern Thailand. But what we did see/experience really touched us.
The landscape is dramatic and impressive
The forests are incredible
The birds stunning
And best of all, the people are really really smiley. Apparently, they have a guiding philosophy to laugh/smile at everything. There seems to be a real culture of - and striving for happiness. And this is respected.
I see this in stark contrast to the business environment and society in much of the "western" world (for wont of a better term) which prides itself in seriousness, stress and greed as its ideals.
I will be going back.

Assume that you are the newly hired promotion manager for Burberry and that the VP of Marketing wants you to prepare a report on how the designer's/brand's product/good is currently marketed and to begin to think about what changes, if any, you might want to see made in the promotion of that designer's/brand's products/goods.
What promotion makes the designer's/brand's products different from its competitors?
Defend your position.
In terms of product/good marketing, how would you change the promotion mix?
Defend your position.
In terms of product/good marketing, how would you change the advertising mix?
Defend your position.
The Situation
You have to learn the promotion channels your designer/brand currently uses vis a vis the promotion channels used by competitors and recommend changes in that mix.
You have to learn the advertising media your designer/brand currently uses vis a vis the advertising media used by competitors and recommend changes in that mix.
In preparing your CASE4, ensure that you demonstrate your learning of the marketing concepts and frameworks for analysis outlined in the modular learning objectives by using and referencing the background and case material.
1. Identify factors that influence the promotional mix of a product/service.
2. Evaluate the promotional strategy for a brand.
In CASE4, as stated in the background readings, since the promotion mix (among other activities) includes advertising, personal selling, and sale promotion AND the advertising mix includes print media, TV, radio, and newer forms of communication such as e-media; your job is to consider changes at two levels: changes in promotion and changes in advertising. Defend your positions on any and all of the issues you tackle.© BrainMass Inc. brainmass.com May 20, 2020, 8:35 pm ad1c9bdddf

Marketing Mix
Burberry operates its business around the world in the area of different luxury products including non-apparels and apparels such as raincoats, begs, biscuits, women wear, men wear and children wear etc. In addition, the organization competes with different global luxury conglomerates such as Emporio Armani, Just Cavalli, Miu Miu, and D&G etc.
In this paper, the position of Burberry will be explored in terms of optimization of promotional strategies as compared to its competitors. In this paper, different promotional and advertisement mix used by Burberry would be represented with the comparison of its competitors.
Differentiation in Promotion
In the organizational effectiveness, promotion plays a vital role as it assists to increase organizational sales and profitability through product/brand awareness and also helps to educate the society (Pride & Ferrell 2010). Promotion can be defined as an element of marketing mix that is used to publicize an organization, product/ brand for the purpose of enhancing awareness among target audience and to increase organizational sales and profitability (Botha, Strydom & Brink 2005).
In case of Burberry, promotion strategies of the organization is different from its competitors as the organization uses electronic media like TV ads for promoting organizational products, whereas several competitors such as Miu Miu, and Just Cavalli do not concentrate to optimize electronic media (Pearce 2002). It is the unique promotion that is used by Burberry to reach on target audience of the organization. It assists the organization to cover large number of target audience that leads to increase awareness among them (Boone & Kurtz 2011). In addition, the organization also has its presence on FM & radio for promoting organizational products, whereas other competitors like D&G and Emporio Armani do not concentrate on FM & radio as promotional tool. It leads to increase awareness about organizational products and brands among society members by covering people that prefer conspicuous consumption and luxury items.
Despite of this, the organization does not use direct marketing as a tool of promotion, whereas Emporio Armani interacts with its customers directly (Burberry 2010; Pride & Ferrell 2010). In addition, Burberry optimizes online media, public relations, coupons, discounts etc. to promote organizational product/brand as similar to its competitors (Burberry 2010; Moore & Birtwistle 2004). It has assisted to increase organizational sales and revenue for organizational sustainability.
Changes in Promotion Mix
The organization provides luxury products with different product lines in various countries such as biscuits in UK, watches in ...

text: Richard and I went to see Steve Forbes (of Forbes magazine fame) speaking last night at an event organised by The London Junto (a libertarianish organisation). The topic was flat taxes, and Forbes made a compelling argument for one - albeit probably preaching to the converted. Forbes has to be one of the most knowledgeable people I've ever seen speak - he dealt with economics, business, and geopolitical questions with equal capability, forthrightness, and clarity. He's a former Republican presidential candidate, and it's obvious from his winning politician's smile. The Lansdowne Club is a traditional old-boys London Club (you can tell this partly because they pointedly use the word criterion on their website), and it made a suitable venue, although it didn't exactly appeal to my taste. All in all, a worthy experiment.

OD Masterclass
Cluj-Napoca, Opera Plaza Hotel, 3rd of October, 2018
" Purpose, Power and Personality: a story of seismic change" – An Organizational Development (OD) masterclass afternoon
Are you curious to find out how the field of Organisation Development can add value to organisational growth, support change and the flourishing of individuals? Join Steve Tarpey for an afternoon of input, discussion and dialogue with other managers, in a 4 hours masterclass, on the 3rd of October.
Steve Tarpey MA is a UK based leadership and OD expert who has worked with organisations around the globe as a consultant, developer and coach.
In the last decade we have seen many new organisations emerge and grow rapidly. These new organisations, often in the technology sector, are able from the outset to establish a culture and style geared towards flexibility and responsiveness. But what happens when a long established organisation with a deeply ingrained culture encounters rapid and revolutionary change?
AB&C (not their real name) are a financial services organisation. Established over 70 years ago they were quietly and moderately successful for the first 65 years but, following changes in UK regulation that came into effect in 2013, they were faced with a serious challenge and a significant opportunity which led to the creation and launch of a new product.
Membership of 60,000 people in 300 organizations in 2013 has grown to 3,900,000 people in 75,000 organisations today. Whilst a significant commercial success, this has been a turbulent roller-coaster of a ride for the organisation and those who work in it.
From an OD perspective there have been challenges in relation to Culture, Leadership, Change, Strategy, Politics, Organisational Design and more besides. Throughout this period our speaker, Steve Tarpey, has worked alongside the organisation as an external consultant. In this Masterclass he will share how he and they have approached these issues, what has worked and what's gone wrong, and how what he has learned has changed how he thinks about OD.
Language: The session will be delivered in English, for a group of 30 people.
Place: Opera Plaza Hotel, Cluj-Napoca
Date: 3th of October 2018, between 13.30 and 17.30.
Masterclass participation conditions:
The fee is 380 euro + VAT. This includes:
- attending masterclass
- lunch, coffee, juices

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Violin Concerto No.3 in G major, K216 (Strassburger)
Joan Kwuon, violin
Johann Sebastian Bach
Brandenburg Concerto No.3 in G, BWV1048

Antonin Dvořák
Serenade for strings, Op.22
Tempo di Valse
Scherzo (Vivace)
Finale (Allegro vivace)
Concerto grosso in G minor, Op.6 No.8
For most modern listeners this music is the Christmas Concerto. What this hides is the fact that whole swathes of Christmas concertos were composed
during the baroque era – it was a genre in its own right. But Corelli's has come down to us as the most famous one of all.
It's a concerto grosso – a concerto with more than one soloist, unlike the Mozart violin concerto we'll hear next. In this case, two violins and
a cello make up the solo group, which plays with and 'against' the full ensemble. The concerto belongs to a set of 12, possibly written as early as
1690 for concerts in the palace of Cardinal Ottoboni and published in 1714 as Corelli's Opus 6.
Of the dozen concertos, this is the only one with a subtitle: Fatto per la notte di natale (Made for Christmas night). But even without
this clue, Corelli's original listeners would have recognized it as a Christmas concerto from its final movement. Throughout the concerto
Corelli has alternated mood and tempo – back and forth between the lively and the serious. But then, instead of bringing the concerto to a fast
conclusion, Corelli gives us a slow pastorale, featuring the lilting rhythms associated with the shepherds in the fields, keeping watch over their flocks.
Violin Concerto No.3 in G major, K216
Imagine hearing Mozart-the-violinist: once after he'd performed this concerto he said it had gone as "smoothly as oil," and everyone
had praised his "beautiful, pure tone." Mozart must have had a "singing" style, and it's no surprise that the very beginning of this
concerto was borrowed almost note for note from music for the voice: an opera he'd recently written called Il re pastore (The Shepherd King).
It's possible to listen to the whole concerto as an opera for the violin. The music is full of vivid characterizations, as if there
are scenes for lovers, for peasants, a clown… In the third movement you can hear various changes of mood or 'costume.' The music
that anchors all this – like the chorus in a song – is the recurring rondo theme, introduced at the beginning of the movement and
played between each contrasting musical episode.
But the third episode offers a surprise: Mozart breaks off with three big chords from the orchestra and the music becomes slower and
more stately – it's a court dance known as a gavotte. But before he has even finished, Mozart interrupts himself again, this time
with a lusty peasant dance, the 'Strassburger' tune.
The finale is great fun, but the most exquisite music in the concerto is in the Adagio (slow) movement, the only movement where we
hear the flutes. Their sound is complemented by the violins and violas playing with mutes and the cellos and basses plucking their
notes instead of bowing them. And above this gentle accompaniment the soloist spins one of Mozart's gorgeous melodies.
Brandenburg Concerto No.3 in G, BWV1048
Both halves of this concert begin with the same type of music: a baroque concerto grosso. This one belongs to the famous set of
Brandenburg concertos – six concertos "with various instruments" composed at various times between 1718 and 1721. During this period
Bach was working in the court of Anhalt-Cöthen, and if these concertos are any guide, the musicians in his orchestra there were very fine players indeed.
One way to think of the Brandenburg Concertos is as an artist's portfolio in which Bach reveals the extent of his virtuosity and
imagination as a composer. They were assembled in 1721 in a handsome presentation manuscript addressed to the Margrave of Brandenburg
(hence the nickname) and each one is for a different (and, for the time, unusual) ensemble of instruments.
The third concerto is striking in that it calls for string orchestra with a keyboard playing a continuo role (the baroque equivalent
of a jazz rhythm section). The strings are arranged in three groups of equal strength and virtuosity, making it the most democratic and in
some ways the most symphonic of the Brandenburg concertos. In turn, each of those groups has three parts, which to an 18th-century listener
would have prompted thought of the holy Trinity.
The concerto also follows a three-part structure: two fast (Allegro) movements separated by the tiniest of slow (Adagio) movements – just two chords!
But Bach would have expected more of his performers here: the chords an invitation for the musicians, or the leader at least, to improvise a transition
between the two outer movements.
Serenade for strings, Op.22
Dvořák's Serenade for strings is a relatively early creation, written when he was 34 and before he was established as a composer to be reckoned with.
It shows a young man looking backwards to his heritage and the result is music that Mozart would have recognized. As a serenade, it belongs to an
18th-century tradition of cheerful music written for casual settings, intended as background for socializing.
Composing in 1875, Dvořák intended his serenade for concert performance and he would have expected us to listen to it, not chat, but the music still
reveals a genial spirit, a charming simplicity, and an appealing variety of moods over the course of its five movements. It's a Classical serenade at heart.
Dvořák's personal voice emerges in the flowing, folk-like theme of the first movement, his instinct for dance music (the second movement is an elegant
waltz), and his energizing use of rhythm – again, influenced by folk traditions. The Larghetto (slow) movement brings a mood of tranquility and reflection
to the serenade before the fiery and restless music of the finale.

Arcangelo Corelli
Italian composer
Corelli was one of the first great violin virtuosos. He was also a renowned composer and teacher (Vivaldi was one of his students), and
his influence was so extensive that composers such as Bach, and later Rachmaninoff, borrowed his musical ideas. As was common in the 17th and 18th
centuries, Corelli's livelihood as a musician depended on patronage: in Rome he worked for Queen Christine of Sweden after her abdication and later
Cardinal Ottoboni.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Austrian composer
Mozart spent the first part of his career in Salzburg as a servant-musician in the court of the Prince-Archbishop. His duties included composition
and performing, and in addition to being a virtuoso at the keyboard, he was a very accomplished violinist, capable of playing concertos such as this
one. His father assured him if he kept practicing he could be one of the finest violinists in Europe. But Mozart had other plans…
JS Bach
German composer
Johann Sebastian Bach is for many musicians today the most revered of all composers, yet in his own lifetime he was mainly known as a virtuoso
organist and for his skill as an improviser. His creations include many cantatas and choral works written for church performance, a set of keyboard
pieces called The Well-Tempered Clavier, and concertos of all types.
Antonin Dvořák
Czech composer
Dvořák was born near Prague and died in that city. This made him a Bohemian composer at a time when the region was under the thumb of the Austrian empire.
He lived through an era when nationalistic feeling dominated, and folk traditions, previously dismissed, were nurtured as a source of identity. His big
reak came in 1878 with the publication of his Slavonic Dances. Yet some of his best-known music was stimulated not by the sounds of Bohemia but by his years
in America: the New World Symphony and the Cello Concerto in B minor.

For the past two seasons, Crystal Palace have started off very well, before their form falls off a cliff after the turn of the year. Last season saw the Eagles drop from European contention in December to finishing just five points, and three places above the bottom three. Alan Pardew has moved early to sure up the Eagles' back line, with Marseille 'keeper Steve Mandanda and the solid James Tomkins moving to Selhurst Park. However, their defence was not their problem last season – it was goal scoring. Only Villa (27) scored less goals than Palace last season (39 – joint with Norwich) and top scorer Dwight Gayle has left to join Newcastle. Andros Townsend has been brought in, who will chip in with a few goals, but he is not known for creating many assists. Connor Wickham and Frazier Campbell are Palace's only senior strikers at the moment, so midfielders such as Townsend, Jason Puncheon and Yahan Cabaye will need to contribute immensely if Palace are to avoid a relegation scrap. The Eagles face an incredibly tough run in, so they will need points on the board early in the season to stave off any fears of the drop.
Key Man: Yohan Cabaye. The French midfielder joined the Eagles last season with high expectations, but he struggled to live up to expectations. Despite finishing as Palace's joint-second top scorer, three of his five goals came from the spot. Cabaye must contribute more goals and assists if Palace are going to thrive this season.
One to Watch: Hiram Boateng. The midfielder was named Palace's Development Player of the Year last season after an impressive loan spell at Plymouth, and even made his Premier League debut in February. If he stays at Selhurst Park, Boateng may find his way in to the team as James McArthur's deputy.
Last Season: 15th
Prediction: 18th

I got a much needed haircut today and came up with a brilliant solution to make a lot of money and solve an age old problem. The problem, (and some of you may not think this is a big deal, and you would be right)but it would solve the age old problem of having to struggle through small talk with the person cutting your hair. I usually don't have a problem making small talk, but usually the small talk only lasts for 5 minutes. The small talk for someone cutting your hair lasts at least a half hour. A much harder task. Some salons have resorted to gimmicks like having a girl in a bikini cut your hair, which to me would just be really weird. And plus that wouldn't really solve the small talk problem. My idea would be to have a salon/barber that you would pay an extra five dollars just to have the stylist not talk. I am sure the stylist wouldn't mind the extra money and you could just sit there in peace. Mutually beneficial. Call it "Silent Styles" or "quiet cuts". Who wants to open the first branch with me?

ISIS has released a new audio recording of their leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, calling on his followers to "resist the infidels."
The recording is the first communication released by the ISIS leader in almost year during which the group has lost much of the territory it controlled in Iraq and Syria.
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said in July it had "confirmed information" that al-Baghdadi had been killed. Observatory director Rami Abdulrahman told news agencies he died in Deir az Zor province, about 80 miles southeast of the Islamic State's de facto Syrian capital of Raqqa.
In June, Russia's military claimed it may have killed al-Baghdadi and other senior commanders in an airstrike in late May on the southern outskirts of Raqqa.
There was never any confirmation of the claims, and previous reports of his death have turned out to be false. Pentagon officials have said they believe al-Baghdadi is alive.
The 46-minute recording was not dated, but al-Baghdadi makes reference to recent North Korean threats against Japan and United States.
"The leaders of the Islamic State and its soldiers have realised that the path to … victory is to be patient and resist the infidels," he said in the message.
In a statement to the AFP news agency, a US intelligence official suggested the tape could well be real but added that it was still being verified. "While we have no reason to doubt its authenticity, we do not have verification at this point," the official said.
The audio release comes amid growing speculation over the fate of al-Baghdadi, whose last recorded speech was issued in early November 2016, two weeks after the start of the battle for Mosul, when he urged his followers to fight the "unbelievers" and "make their blood flow as rivers."

Our journalism takes time, money and effort to deliver. But we do it because we believe we have a duty to Allah (swt).

If your business does anything in the way of producing technological items, it is likely that you want to make sure they are produced to the highest possible standard. Of course, it can be much easier said than done to make sure that your technological products are as perfect as possible, but learning what goes into a polished item is always going to be hugely beneficial here and or those reasons.
In this article, therefore, we are going to look into what goes into the most polished tech products of all. Follow these guidelines if you want to produce great pieces of technological wizardry.
The Basics: Good Circuitry
No matter what the item is, if you have made it with poor circuitry, then it is highly unlikely that it will be able to function in the best way possible. It is worth remembering that the more time you spend on the early part of production,. The better the overall item will be. So if you are able to put a lot of effort into the circuitry and PCB design, you will find that it vastly improves the workings of the whole thing. For that reason, you should endeavor to use trusted sources like Altium, so that you can be sure that your PCB design is up to scratch, and laying the foundation for a more successfully produced product as well.
If your product is not original enough, it is unlikely that it will ever be regarded as a must-have item. You need to have answered a call in some way or solved a problem which people didn't even know that they have. As long as you do that with your product, you can be sure of it being hailed as the great new thing in the world of technology.
But you should bear this in mind at the blueprint stage, as it can be notoriously difficult to make this happen, and you should do whatever you can to ensure that you are producing items of great innovation and significance. As long as that is true, your piece will be much more respected and will probably see better sales too.
The way a piece of technology looks is also always going to be important. You might not want it to be, but it is. People make their purchasing decisions primarily on how something looks – and besides, there is nothing wrong with spending some time being a little imaginative and trying to make your piece look its absolute best. The more you are able to focus on the aesthetics of the item, the more likely it is that you will produce something of great value for the customer which they can really enjoy.
With this taken care of, you can consider your technological item to have pretty much complete, whereas if you overlook the aesthetics then you haven't really done the whole work. For that reason be sure to think about how it looks from the very start, and always bear this in mind as you design and build.

Anyone Else Finding It Hard Waiting To Test
Hi everyone I am 6dpo and my AF is due 27th. Last month I think I went through about seven pregnancy tests which I will add I bought cheap from e bay. I know it is rediculous but I am really impatient. I have already done one test this morning which was negative and I suppose it would be at 6dpo but I want to know so bad. I will probably try to wait until 25th to test again. Anyone else like this?
I bought my test off ebay too very cheap blue handles right???? anyway I tested yesterday which was unbelieveable as I just finished ovulating My af isn't due utnil Halloween
Hi,I am 10dpo and I have tested 3 times already.I know it sounds silly but I want to know right now!AF is due on 25th of Oct,I hope that I am preg!!!!!This is our 1st mo.

Competitiveness of food and drink manufacturers hindered by rising costs, says FDF Survey
Posted: 7 August 2018 | New Food | No comments yet
The Food and Drink Federation (FDF) recently published the second of its new quarterly business confidence surveys, which reveals that more than three quarters of manufacturers expect input prices to rise in the remainder of 2018.
The Food and Drink Federation (FDF) recently published the second of its new quarterly business confidence surveys, which reveals that more than three quarters of manufacturers expect input prices to rise in the remainder of 2018.
More than half of those polled had seen increased ingredient costs (62 per cent), increased packaging costs (61 per cent) and increased energy costs (51 per cent) having the biggest impact on their businesses in the second quarter of the year.
Positively, 54 per cent of businesses had also seen an increase in sales in the UK, while 42 per cent reported an increase in new product launches.
According to the survey large number of food and drink manufacturers expect unemployment to remain at similar record low levels across 2018. While the majority of businesses expect input prices to continue to increase over the year. Increased ingredient costs and exchange rate volatility remain a concern for food and drink businesses over 2018.
The UK's future relationship with the EU was amongst the top three concerns of businesses polled, with contingency measures seen as barriers to success for many. Increases in input prices were expected to continue in part due to exchange rate volatility.
Despite this, respondents felt general business confidence had remained static during the last two quarters (66 per cent). Looking to the second half of the year, many companies said they were still looking to invest, with investment in new machinery and product launches two of the three opportunities identified by those FDF spoke to. Said FDF Chief Executive Ian Wright:
"The shadow of a 'no deal' Brexit looms large over business confidence amongst the UK's food and drink manufacturing industry. This should be no surprise: there are so many crucial questions to which businesses need answers.
"Despite this, manufacturers remain resilient. It is encouraging to see so much future investment planned. Now Government must start providing the clarity needed to navigate unchartered waters as we look to prepare for our future outside the EU."

We wouldn't recommend for you to wear them because when you spray your face that component will be not suntan," a salon worker said.
http://player.youku.com/embed/XMjg0OTk2NDc2Do not be misled — Spray Tan Courses does not turn you orange or leave you with observable stripes. Spray tanning additionally offers the added convenience of a 2-3 minute session in a huge booth as opposed to a 15 minute session under hot UV rays.
No dangerous skin tissue, no orange-looking suntans, receive fabulous bronze suntans along with professional application all at Aventura Spray Tan. The mist in spray tanning briefly makes your skin golden brown, not orange. The Infinity Sun products deliver all natural ingredients that really moisturize your skin for 7-14 days of your spray tan.
Together with the drive of abutton, the session starts using a fine mist of aloe veraenriched sunless tanning solution being sprayed throughpatented MagneTan nozzles.
This kit combines the best products from leading brands like Norvell to start a spray tanning company in a single whole kit! PbGlow Beauty & GlowSunless System gets you a better tan in less time.
Try out our spray tan and find out first hand what everyone is referring to!
Know someone who got a bad spray tan in the past and that's likely since the solution was lousy quality (or it could be because it was unprofessionally employed). No other tanning salon will offer as many as three uses without charging an additional fee.
You will want to enable approximately 20 to 30 minutes for your own spray tan application. For individuals who want the most colour possible, we provide a totally free extra spray the next day!
To obtain the maximum out of your SunFX salon tanning experience we recommend using our premium variety of SunFX body products. The Norvell booth is the newest technology in spray tanning in the marketplace now! The Mystic Tan Booth is designed to provide a customized sunless tanning application to each customer according to their body size, skin type, and desired color.
There are three tanning level options available to make the perfect tanning results for every individual customer. Do it yourself sunless tanners tend to not be employed in a 100% even way. Yet, sunless tanning has come a ways from those days, developing lovely bronze based bronzers that look magnificent on EVERYONE!
Norvells even, streak-free formula has built in sheeting action to remove spotting and streaking which you may get from many store bought sunless tanning products. We are discreet, professional, but first and foremost we are there to force you to get comfortable, which allows you to appreciate all of the benefits of spray tanning.
The effective tanning ingredient, DHA, is an FDA-approved sugar cane derivative that provides a safe alternative to UV tanning. In case you'd like to be tan for a unique event we urge coming in for your spray tan the day before, or as near the event as possible (allowing for at least 12 hours prior to the next shower.)
You will get a spray tan just one time to get a special occasion or you can visit us once a week to keep a year round luminescence.
You will get prepared for the spray tan in an exclusive room by getting undressed.
What is more, the spray tan lasts a long time, to help you relish your hot new appearance.
Step inside and experience the multi-part tanning session with our booth's tender spray nozzles.
ULTRATAN offers sunless formulation that range from a nice summer luminescence to the deepest, darkest tan of your life. ULTRATAN offers sunless formulations that range from a nice summer glow to the deepest, darkest tan of your life. According to our research, the maximum amount of DHA which could inadvertently be ingested or breathed during a one minute Mystic Tan sunless tanning session would be05 milligrams (equivalent to significantly less than one grain of common table salt).
Take a look at Mystic's entire line of products, designed to prolong, safeguard and boost your sunless tanning encounter.
DHA is dihydroxyacetone, a carbohydrate (monosaccharide sugar) compound accepted by the FDA for use in externally applied sunless tanning solutions. Exfoliating prepares the skin to get a spray tan and ensures optimal outcomes. This enables one to totally lose your sunless tan periodically, which helps eliminate patchiness or uneven regions of wear.
It is suggested you have some facial or body waxing done prior to your own spray tan.
If you don't have time to construct your own natural tan or if tanning beds just do not suit your style, Expressions Tanning offers a choice of two different air brush systems that can give you a gorgeous golden brown tan in minutes! Infinity Sun Spa Lite is a one-of-a-kind, patended cellular spray tanning system.
Our Theater is said to function as the most professional-looking hand held aerosol tanning system on the market. However we want to spray as close into the hairline as possible to get a natural appearance. Do know, you cannot shower for 12 hours following your spray tan.
Wait 16-24 hours to shower after getting the airbrush tan, this manner your colour will likely be set in and last longer!
My guidance on obtaining a spray tan is always to err to the light side. In commercial spray "tanning" booths, consumers receive an application of DHA in the shape of a mist or spray. When using DHA-containing products as an all-through spray or mist in a commercial spray "tanning" booth, it might be difficult to control DHA exposure.
Consumers want to offer a particular gift for attempting Spray Tans Express.
Boca Booth offer the finest, darkest and fastest vertical tan ever!
And because consumers currently realize that baking in the sun all day is really bad for our skin,tonsof individuals are simply turning to spray tanning to get that beautiful bronze glow. When you are done you have to put back in your clothes and get in a car, all with that tanning solution throughout your body.
Right off the bat, realize the price of spray tanning varies from location to location.
You can also wipe those areas down a bit right after the spray is applied.
Those lotions, formerly famous for turning skin orange, were never as popular as present products that produce better suntans. Yet another salon incorrectly told undercover ABC News producers that DHA is so safe, it is used to assist treat diabetes and may be injected within the body. Similarly, automated Mystic Tan booths deliver spray tans with multiple color options, with their MagneTan system ensuring the alternatives go on equally over the body.
The efficient tanning team can also perform cellular services in the office or home.
The technicians arrive with all necessary equipment, attentively coating bodies in bathrooms or garages to prevent giving suntans to already-entitled housecats. Our airbrush artists can add highlights and shadow areas to improve muscle. Our tanning solution is streak and smell free, uses easily and evenly, absorbs immediately, gives a natural looking tan and fades like a real suntan lasting as much as 10 days.
Enter indoor tanning salons, which became a favorite fashion in the '80s.
The Infinity Sun equipment uses HVLP (high volume, low pressure) technology to deliver a fine mist that goes on smoothly to achieve a truly natural, perfect custom aerosol tan.
I constantly feel so amazing about myself after I leave the salon. Mystic tan revolutionized the spray tan, producing perfect, flawless, natural results every time. Aerosol tanners of ages must adhere to security precautions posted and instructed including use of eyewear, nose filters, etc.
Because our spray tan produce this type of natural, wonderful result, our business continues to grow. We recently added a new spray suntan lotion to our offerings which is oil based also it produces a long lasting tan and provides a darker, natural looking result.
We provide spray tan sessions, session packages, and one month unlimited packages. There is no need to be concerned about streaking or running as the device delivers an even tan!
The merchandise that people use for your own spray tan comprises aesthetic bronzer that will slowly get darker until your first shower.
Each airbrush use is performed by our *Master Certified Staff and is 100% customizable using the latest technology in HVLP. It does not damage to buff your skin a bit before coming to the salon for a spray tan, but you only need to severely scrub if you currently have old self tanner on your skin.
This really is the 'color guide' and enables the tech to find out where the spray tan goes. As the spray tan product works together with your skin's natural chemistry, no two people are going to have the same result. In our experience, in case your spray tan was used properly – your friends will simply see that you seem great!
The spray tan is attached to the upper layers of your skin and gradually fades as your skin exfoliates. A amazing before tan treatment, this exfoliator is spa grade and comprises natural extracts to thoroughly prep and polish your skin to get a magnificent spray tan. The VersaSpa vertical booth is engineered to deliver low pressure, high volume spray tanning.
Custom spray tanning isn't just the smart alternative because it provides all the same benefits without the exposure to uv beams; but in addition, it could minimize the appearance of skin imperfections and eliminate the concern of tan lines. The results from spray tanning are much much better than applying creams and lotions by hand, as well as the application process is a lot less messy. Mystic Tan offers several alternatives of tanning myst in clear formulations.
I first went here to get a spray tan for my wedding, I was a bit worried because I've had some horror stories from other areas. Myself had been visiting Orlando and looking for a good spray tan, Andressa came to my hotel and gave me an astonishing spray tan!
Better to Imitation it then Bake it, especially using the strong FL sun. Prevent any strenuous exercise or perspiration activity immediately following the aerosol tanning session as this will affect the developing process.
In the event that you have to have it on you, spray a "cloud" to go through.

I have always been a believer in the power of Fate. I am not an extremely faith-based person but I do often find myself getting through "the worst of times" by giving into the power of fate and its role in how things do or don't go down.
Now my belief in fate seems to be renewed and made stronger a couple times a month … recently I was pretty freaking happy that fate stepped in and I wasn't running with my coworker/friend after work when I had a bathroom emergency on the trails … thank heavens our schedules were off by a few precious minutes! Now I certainly have friends who have been part of pit stops from back in my cycling days (you know who you are … remember when we figure out how to pee standing up in our spandex cycling shorts? That was an awesome day!) However, I haven't crossed that personal barrier with any coworkers yet … and frankly I'm not sure if it's time just yet.
As I sit in my house on this Saturday morning and listen to the rain pouring out of the leaf-filled gutters, I'm warm and toasty despite the low 40's outside. I have a box of tissues at the ready for my never-ending head cold and a steamy cup of coffee right beside that. I can't help but think of those folks doing the running race that I was supposed to be doing today … up in the Mountains … where it's going to hit a high of 39 degrees today and where the snow plans to turn to rain just about when I'd be rounding mile 17 of the steep mountain trails. Woah!
Now, I made my decision to not race this weekend a couple weeks back as I've mentioned … training went off the rails for a few reasons (not important but I certainly am happy to go on a rant should someone request it!) Add to that, last night's 3+ mile Trick-or-Treat-a-thon would've made for a pretty sore 4+ hour run and with all this precipitation, my tissues would've surely been soaked by mile 2 and THEN how would I have blown my nose every four minutes? Snot frozen to my face for four hours? No Thank you!
I am all about EPIC … but I think today's Shut In is going to be a bit beyond what I can handle. Fate is what I'm chocking it all up to … as I get out the full contingent of Cars and Cars 2 vehicles for the Cars movie marathon with my favorite three little boys. I'll create my own "epic" later today when I take a (much shorter) run in the freezing rain and tackle the wilds of the Target aisles in search of a few organizational bins … did you know that every year your kid was going to bring home a metric ton of arts/crafts/assignments/etc.? Yeah, we're a "digital society" but paper is still going strong in the preschool and elementary school systems! Go trees!!
