Last night saw the very first I Only Watch 18s Movie Night at The Exhibit Cinema in Balham, and obviously it was a success. Thanks to everyone that came down, and anybody who didn't – shame on you! But don't worry, you can come to the next one.
Anyway, as an extra special treat, here's my exclusive intro video to The Raid, for all those that missed it:
See you next month for The Thing!

Most Abundant, Resilient Winter Pests in Colorado
Fall and Winter weather bring some remedy for lots of annoying bugs – however, cooler temperatures send most bugs looking for food and warmer shelter inside. The following are short descriptions of a few of the most resilient winter season pests and how Beeline Pest Control helps keep you safe all season long!
A wood-burning fire can bring a good deal of heat and comfort into your home throughout the cold winter months. Unfortunately carrying in the wood for that fire can also carry in the nasty cockroach. Throughout the winter months, cockroaches can also find damaged or missing screens on doors and chimneys to access the house. Once inside, they quickly contaminate food and water sources.
These bugs are among the hardiest structural pests to eliminate mainly because of their capacity to hide. Throughout the past few years, researchers have discovered their amazing ability to continually evolve, enabling them to resist most insecticide sprays and baits.
Of the almost 4,000 cockroach types found worldwide, about 4 of them are found throughout Colorado. Mostly what makes them so hard to control is their resiliency. They can adapt rapidly to their environment – quickly transitioning from the spring/summer to fall/winter seasons.
Lots of cockroaches endure the winter weather by hiding in walls, cracks, crevices, behind cabinets or home appliances and then reproduce in these warm, places. During the night they discover food and water from kitchen areas or bathrooms, and spread the diseases they carry on their body, as they stroll across utensils, plates, cups, counter tops, and so on. Some proteins produced by cockroaches are a substantial source of human breathing allergens.
With winter approaching cockroaches might be searching for shelter within the walls of your warm home, contact Beeline Pest Control to be sure they don't discover it.
Sadly, the majority of Colorado termites are not eliminated by our freezing winter weather conditions. Although they do decrease a bit in the cold months, these destructive pests continue their march of damage, aided by the heat of the structures they inhabit.
Below Ground and Drywood Termites that have found shelter and food within your home's structure will not be affected by cold outdoor temperature levels.
Finding termites in the winter inside your home is disturbing. Often, termite damage can go unnoticed until these bugs have consumed their path through your walls.
Subtle signs of their presence may include little holes in drywall or mud tunnels used to travel from the ground to inside your home .
In the basement, attic, crawl space or anywhere you can see exposed wood, look for signs of damage along the grain, including holes or places that appear to have been nibbled.
On the ceiling, beware of any bubbling or little areas of staining that appear as water damage. In many cases, you might see a little, brownish tube hanging from the ceiling. These drop tubes are a sure indicator of an active termite nest delighting in your home 's support structures.
Although you're not likely to see a great deal of them out and about this time of year, it 's useful to understand precisely what a termite looks like, considering they sometimes can be confused with a flying ant.
In states like Colorado where termites are fairly active and widespread, it is important to contact Beeline Pest Control to develope a dependable termite prevention and control program.
Trained termite inspectors from Beeline Pest Control can inspect your home and recognize active or previously active nests at any time of the year. Contact our termite professional if you see any signs of an issue.
Mice and Rats
Mice and rats are also known to leave dark brown or black droppings along their course, typically around food sources and nesting areas . The droppings are a granular shape and can differ from 1/4 of an inch to 3/8 of an inch. You can assess the degree of your problem by the amount of droppings you find.
One of the worst threats mice and rats bring to people, is illness and bacteria through rodent droppings and bites. Direct exposure to droppings can spread significant diseases such as hantavirus, salmonella, and leptospirosis. Rodent bites can transfer rat-bite fever or infection.
Their continuous gnawing can cause significant damage to your home. Mice have been known to chew on things like wires, PVC piping, furniture, bricks, and anything made from wood. In some cases, rodents have started house fires from chewing through electrical wires.
For significant intrusions, or if rodents simply make you squeamish, contact Beeline Pest Control and develop an elimination strategy that satisfies your specific requirements.
Thankfully, with the assistance of Beeline Pest Control, you can reclaim your home.
Bed Bugs
For years, the saying, "Sleep tight, don't let the bed bugs bite," was a rather useless, lights-out expression for kids in the United States. Within the last couple of years, bed bugs have begun to reappear and become particularly problematic throughout the winter season when everybody tends to remain inside and unknowingly transport the little guys from place to place.
Bed bugs are wingless, rust-colored pests about the size of an apple seed, clear (or bright red, if they have recently fed), and barely visible to the naked eye.
They do not fly or have nests like other insects, but they do tend to move quickly and congregate among groups in safe hiding places found throughout your home.
Bed bugs are blood-feeding insects that feed on the blood of humans . If a human host is not available, bed bugs will settle for animals like little rodents and household pets.
Bed bugs stay near their host when they exist– so bedrooms , sofas, and other sleeping areas are the most common locations to discover them. During larger intrusions, bedbugs can move through an entire house quickly and could be found on any surface area.
Bed bugs are most active when we sleep. They crawl onto exposed skin, inject a moderate anesthetic and suck up a meal of blood. Most people never feel the bite, but will discover the welts, bumps and red spots on their skin the next morning.
Bed bugs feed for about 5 to 10 minutes throughout the night, while the host sleeps, usually in the predawn hours. After feeding, they crawl to a safe crevice where they'll remain for several days while digesting their meal.
Bed bugs are one of the hardest insects to eliminate. A juvenile bed bug can live for months without feeding while an adult can survive over a year, thereby permitting them to live throughout the winter months. They are resistant to most chemicals and simply destroying the infested furniture or mattresses will not treat the situation. Bed bug issues throughout cold weather are not something to be overlooked . Call Beeline Pest Control services anytime there is an invasion present (720) 863-6676.

The 2017 Ohio Northern University men's cross country team brought home the conference title at the OAC Championship meet on Oct. 28. This makes the team the first men's cross country team in ONU history to win a conference title three years in a row. Following the new title, the men's team will be taking seven runners and three reserve runners to the Great Lakes regional meet this Saturday.
Head coach Jason Maus believes that the men's team will continue to focus on the upcoming meet, despite the historic win.
It was definitely our best team race. That gives you a lot of positive momentum going into it," Maus said. "These guys know we can do this."
ONU will be taking seven runners for the regional event. These runners are Ian McVey, Matt Molinaro, Bobby Borger, Sam Boyd, Spencer Schulze, Jordan Green, and Travis Sutter. ONU will also be taking three reserve runners which are Andrew Shelton, John McNutt, and Dominic Solis.
The men's team claimed the OAC title at the Clinton Heights Golf Course in Tiffin, Ohio. The team placed first against conference rivals Mount Union, John Carroll, Otterbein, Baldwin Wallace, Heidelberg, Capital, Wilmington, and Muskingum. Along with the title, runners Ian McVey, Matt Molinaro, and Bobby Borger were awarded First-Team All-OAC honors. Runners Sam Boyd and Spencer Schulze were named Second-Team All-OAC.
While facing eight other schools for the conference title, the men's team was also racing for redemption as their last meet on the Clinton Heights Golf Course in September did not go in their favor. They finished fifth of nine teams at the Tiffelberg Open on Sept. 16, as Maus said that his team was "not competitive" and "just didn't race with a lot of heart" that day. The lackluster performance was due to what Maus called a lack of energy and a lack of focus.
These guys made an emphasis this time around, back at the same course, to be better," Maus said.
Surely enough, the team improved their previous results and made some history along the way. Junior and veteran runner John McNutt felt honored in the work he and his team have done to secure a third consecutive title.
It was cool to be a part of a historic cross country team at ONU and to be a contributor to it," McNutt said.
McNutt went on to describe how the team "proved a lot of people wrong," after they lost three of their top performing seniors last year, by continuing the winning streak.
With this conference title in the books, the ONU men's cross country team returns this Saturday at noon at the Great Lakes regional meet in Powell, Ohio.

Don't watch if you ever plan on watching either "The Departed" or the original Hong Kong masterpiece, "Infernal Affairs." Also, don't watch if you can't take the Dropkick Murphy's and people getting shot in the head. I love Martin Scorsese New York version of Boston! Don't know if it matches the Boston version of Boston.
The Snob is here! In Boston! (And still can just barely use her new camera) so you'll have to bear with me. I'm not to this particular woman's skill set yet in taking pictures of yourself with a timer and a digital camera.
My trip was smooth (way to go AirTran!) and I slept through most of it. Due to the help of a handsome gentleman named Dane with United Airlines (who likes to cook himself some cordon bleu and knows the public transit system well), I found the hotel with ease. Dane, a 30 year career employee with United was adorable, but I resisted the urge to hit on him once he said "30-year-career" and I realized he could be Papa Snob and was all squicked out by the prospect.
Older guys are always interesting until I think of them meeting my dad and I imagine them talking about the Cardinal's game. Then all the sexy rapidly melts away and it's just two old dudes lying to each other for fun.
(More after the jump!)
My room is awesome. It's small, but I love it. It's well decorated with everything you could need. The sheer number of pillows on the bed are calling my name as we speak. (I'll probably take a nap after this.)
I even have a bit of a view! Of sorts.
Oh yeah. Epic.
That said, two serious questions for the day:
Is the race issue in Boston as bad as the reputation?
And …
Obama is in Mexico as we speak. Are you worried about Mexico becoming destabilized from drug cartels?
Snob's answers: 1) Don't know. Not from here. Always grew up hearing Boston was as bad or worse than St. Louis and St. Louis is town where the Civil War never really ended.
2) Hell yes. If you have to send THE MILITARY to deal with your drug problem your democracy is under threat. The military has a very different function from the police. If you're under military control you're not living in a Republic or a Democracy anymore.
And to me, Mexico is the AIG of countries. That sucker is too big to fail. If it goes we've got more people fleeing violence and poverty across the border into the US, rapidly changing demographics (this is good or bad depending on how you feel about Mexican Americans being the majority ethnicity. I, for one, welcome our new Mexican overlords.) But seriously. Too many impoverish, violence plagued border people, plus war between the cartels and the government, plus our government at war with those same cartels trying to keep violence down here equals destabilization of OUR government and … um … America has survived a lot of shit. I don't know if we'd come out too good in the collapse of Mexico. And I don't want to see President Obama be forced to make some crazy ass decisions because their demise could be our own.
You know? Like open fire on people at border entrances. The shit that looks REALLY BAD on television and makes everyone hate you, but in the scheme of horrible things to come could actually happen.
We've got a lot of resources in America, but not enough to take care of our own AND Mexico's poor.
I've got a solution to all this. Bob Marley once sang about it. My Libertarian friends will clue you in.
Did we learn NOTHING from the prohibition of alcohol? You can't legislate morality. You can only try to control the bad shit. Like make drunk driving laws because people are just going to drive drunk no matter WHAT YOU DO. So you protect the other guy. Yeah, I think it would be logistically a nightmare to figure out HOW to handle the legalization of certain street drugs and their distribution, but we distribute cigarettes, OxyContin and alcohol. We lost the moral high ground a long, long time ago.

The recent hosting of the Mekong Tourism Forum in LNearly 400 travel and tourism industry professionals exchanged lessons and experiences to promote competitive, inclusive, and sustainable tourism at the 2017 MTF , held on 5–9 June in Luang Prabang, Laos. Hosted by the Luang Prabang Provincial Government and the Ministry of Information, Culture and Tourism in collaboration with the Mekong Tourism Coordinating Office, the theme 'Prosper with Purpose' reflected the event's strong focus on sustainability and engagement.
Prosper with Purpose is increasingly defining the way tourism should be conduct, especially in the Mekong region where tourism activities can easily imperil local ways of life and weaken the delicate balance between humans and nature. The Mekong region has embraced tourism as a way to alleviate poverty. The six member countries have been very successful to grow the total number of travellers in the last decade from less than 30 million travellers to 60 million last year.
Now, the Greater Mekong Sub-region is in need to look at all the issues linked to a rapid development of its tourism. Sustainable growth, protecting and educating population, creating not only valuable jobs but also providing perspectives for social progression, protecting landscapes but also urban and rural heritage, fostering organic agriculture, preserving handicraft, eradicating woes often linked by weak control of tourism activities -such as prostitution or child work-, providing useful infrastructure to link better the various regions of the GMS, these are all the tasks that tourism stakeholders in the region face.
The MTF is from that stand point an excellent venue to show that many people are getting involved into a balanced development. Not only officials such as the NTOs and the Asia Development Bank but also NGOs, local communities, hoteliers and tour operators. The multitude of companies helping to let tourism prosper in the GMS, found with the MTF the right platform to discuss and exchange ideas and views.
But now, this is also the format of the MTF which is changing. By hosting the event in Luang Prabang, the MTF helped to demonstrate that a world-class event could be successfully hosted in a smaller town without large conference halls.
Luang Prabang's historic district became THE venue during the MTF , where delegates joined highly relevant thematic sessions moderated by subject matter experts, aligned to the United Nations International Year of Sustainability Tourism for Development.
Topics included child protection, heritage preservation, green urban development, women's empowerment, human resource development, wildlife protection, community based tourism, youth tourism, sustainable investment, and emerging markets. They were hosted in various places all across the town, from a botanical garden to cruise boats on the Mekong River, from hotels to museums, from craft centres to restaurants.
"This event was truly designed by the industry for the industry,' said Jens Thraenhart, Executive Director of the Mekong Tourism Coordinating Office, one of the key event organizers.
Keynote speaker Ms. Anna Pollock, UK-based founder of Conscious.travel said 'It was both an honor and delight to participate in the 2017 Mekong Tourism Forum, one of the best tourism conferences I have ever attended, setting a new standard in conference delivery. The 'distributed, inclusive' model maximized exposure to the talent in both the host and delegate communities, and was a brave, novel and constructive initiative, of benefit to many. Combined with the online platform developed for Mekong Tourism, the forum has set a new standard for destination management organizations to follow!'
Reactions were indeed unanimous. Ms. Duanratchada Chimphalee, Director of Sales & Marketing at Mekong Cruises said: "Being able to discuss the issues of river-based tourism right on a river cruise boat on the Mekong River, made the debate not only so much more relevant and engaging, but also offered delegates to experience tourism products away from the traditional meeting room. We were very pleased to be part of the MTF 2017 hosting community. This new and innovative approach may open up future opportunities for collaboration among the travel industry in Luang Prabang."
Mr. Peter Richards, session facilitator and International Trade Centre responsible tourism specialist remarked 'While complex from a logistics standpoint, the organizer's efforts paid off to create one of the most inclusive and experiential tourism conferences yet by making the destination the venue. This is a new benchmark for inclusive conferences. It was marvelous.'
With the new format, MTF clearly demonstrated that creativity is the future of the Mekong Region, including for the promotion of secondary destinations. Luang Prabang proved it. And it is to expect that other destinations across the region will follow the path set by MTF 2017.

HMPL, JALS partnership helps bring back Jefferson Elementary library
JEFFERSON - In 2012, the Jefferson Area Local Schools District closed the Jefferson Elementary School library due to budget constraints.
With no librarian in place, less than 20 percent of students have used the library for the past five years.
Until this year, when the Henderson Memorial Public Library Board of Trustees and staff took the initiative to help bring back library services.
HMPL Director Bev Follin and employees Karen Phillips and Amanda Hammond (Youth Services) shared the progress of this initiative during the Jefferson Board of Education meeting on Tuesday, Feb. 20.
Follin said Hammond and Phillips were two key people who put in the labor and hard work to bring the library services back to Jefferson Elementary.
In the spring of 2017, both boards voted to let HMPL come in and reopen the Jefferson Elementary library, Phillips said.
At that point, Phillips said they began the process of figuring out what their goals would be.
These goals included:
—HMPL providing staff to clean, organize and update the JES library. —HMPL providing staff two days per week to provide library services to JES students and teachers.
—Every student at JES having access to books in the library, being taught library skills and having the opportunity to choose books of interest to them within their individual needs and reading levels.
—Every teacher at JES having access to the Clevnet system for resources for their classrooms.
—HMPL staff removing all materials that are damaged beyond repair or having outdated information.
—HMPL replacing materials via grants and donations.
—HMPL staff cataloging materials into the Clevnet system.
—HMPL staff working with the Title One staff to "level" readers as per the Guided Reading Ohio program.
HMPL staff spent several weeks cleaning, inventorying and reorganizing the JES library.
First, we had to determine what we were working with, Hammond said. She said they cleaned up the library and went through the books one by one, seeing what was falling apart and what they could fix.
Then they organized the library by picture books, readers, chapter books by series, etc., so kids can find age-appropriate books, she said.
While some of the organization, such as organizing books by title, may not be the usual way of libraries, Hammond said they wanted to go by what was easiest for the kids.
Then, on Oct. 3, HMPL reopened the school-library doors. Twenty-six classrooms, from kindergarten through sixth grade, plus special-education classes, had scheduled library time for the first time in five years. Every two weeks, approximately 600 students are serviced through this collaboration, HMPL staff said.
"Our job is to champion our kids to be enthusiastic about reading," Phillips said. Because of the library's association with Clevnet, teachers have their own card so they can look up materials to borrow from throughout the network. They can browse for reference materials for their classroom, place holds on those materials and HMPL staff then deliver them to the school. Phillips said one of the biggest challenges was the materials in the library, as nearly 500 items had to be thrown out since they were beyond repair. HMPL staff and officials worked on funding to replace those materials. Since the school earns Scholastic Dollars through its book fair, staff asked the Jefferson PTO for a one-time donation of 1,000 Scholastic Dollars. Jefferson PTO President Patty Ketola responded by donating an additional $3,000 out of the general PTO fund.
"There was just an overwhelming response, no hesitation," Phillips said.
Then, another $5,000 grant was obtained from the Believe in Reading organization to go toward purchasing new books.
"We're pretty excited," Phillips said. "We've been making wish lists from the kids and teachers since we opened in October."
At the conclusion of the presentation, Superintendent John Montanaro thanked everyone involved for getting the library open again, which had been a goal for the district. He also thanked members of the school union, who gave up some rights so the district could do it.

What is Give A Day Knoxville?
From September 2 - 8, businesses and residents from across the city and county alike will be invited to join thousands of neighbors, co-workers, family and friends to give their time to help others. Whether it's cleaning up a school yard, giving blood or writing a check to United Way, any act of kindness will be tracked with the help from our friends at Volunteer East Tennessee.
Do I have to volunteer at one of the projects listed on your site?
While we would love for volunteers to choose one of the specific projects organizations in the area have posted, this day is all about helping the entire community! If you have something else in mind, just visit the "Report My Hours" tab on the home page and fill out the form in order for us to count your hours toward our total.
What if I don't have a lot of free time to complete one of these projects?
Don't worry. There are still many ways you can share a simple act of kindness and have it count toward your participation. Here are a few ideas to get you started:
- Bring flowers to a senior citizen
- Pay for someone's order in the drive through
- Offer your seat to a veteran
- Take a shelter dog for a walk
- Shop with or for an elderly friend
- Give blood
- Donate old clothes to Goodwill or KARM
- Offer a shoulder to someone who's dealing with heartache
- Bring your neighbor's paper to their door
- Read to a child
- Carry someone's groceries to their car
- Donate to United Way of Greater Knoxville

Pope Francis in his message for the World Day of Peace gave examples such as the Muslim Khan Abdul Ghaffar Khan. "Women in particular are often leaders of nonviolence, as for example, was Leymah Gbowee and the thousands of Liberian women," Pope Francis states. She gathered Muslim and Christian women who organized "nonviolent protest that resulted in high level peace talks to end the second civil war in Liberia."
Come join local women in a discussion of peacebuilding. Muslims: Dr. Fatma Arslan, Sarwat Husain, Narjis Pierre, Sumeyra Tek. Christians: Rev. Rachel Epp Miller, Mennonite; Rev. Ann Helmke, Lutheran; Sr. Martha Ann Kirk, Roman Catholic.
For those who would like to come at 6 pm, the award-winning film about the Nobel Laureate Laymah Gbowee, Pray the Devil Back to Hell will be shown. This documentary shows the social unrest in the West African Republic of Liberia, where civil war tore the nation apart until women united for peace.
Co-Sponsored by the Council on American Islamic Relations-San Antonio, Dialog Institute, Interfaith INC, UIW Ettling Center for Civic Leadership, Pax Christi San Antonio, San Antonio Mennonite Church, San Antonio peaceCENTER, Women's Global Connection.

God Loves Everybody.
There is a house that I pass by every day with a handmade sign hanging from a flagpole. When I first moved to this area of town it was made out of a bedsheet and simply says, "God Loves Everybody." I'm not sure if it fell victim to bad weather or if it got old and fell apart or what, but lately the flag that has been flying in front of this house appears to have been made from a bath towel.
The little old woman that lives there can often be seen lounging on the front porch in a lazy boy recliner, reading a book and/or smoking a cigarette, or sometimes just hanging out watching traffic go by. Sometimes I see her out wandering the neighborhood, this thin little woman with clothes that seem too big.
I met her once. I spotted her last summer at an event at our quaint little downtown square. I talked to her for a minute, and she revealed to me that she had a brain aneurysm. I hugged her. And every time I drive by her house I look for her, but sometimes all I see is that precious little reminder that God Loves Everybody.
I have no idea what prompted this woman to put that message out there by any means necessary, be it bedsheet or bath towel. I don't know this woman's story, just what I observe in my almost daily drive bys. I do know this: I am grateful to her. I am grateful for the reminder she gives me, that we are all God's children and we are loved. She is an unexpected jewel in my daily drives, twice a day, and I need that.
So, dear ones, don't forget that God Loves Everybody. May you preach it from the porch or wherever you are in your life today.

10 Principles of Psychology You Can Use to Improve Your Love
There is no one created without feelings. We all crave for acceptance and recognition from friends and colleagues. There is a common saying that charity begins at home which implies that we start learning and displaying love from our family members as we relate and share with each other. The principles of of psychology revolve round emotion, power, will and consciousness. These psychology principles can be employed to improve our relationship thus:
- The principle of reciprocity. This principle makes us reciprocate love to those who loves us. Our actions and reactions to our friends and love one will make them respond and want to do good deeds to us.
- The principle of commitment. This makes us want to follow through with our promise. This also implies that once we have vowed to love someone like a spouse, we must be consistent and committed to that promise.
- The principle of social proof explains how majority wins the vote. We unconsciously do what is generally obtainable in our environment. Growing up in a lovely family implies being lovely and vice versa.
- The principle of liking. This explains why we naturally relate likeness to love because we cannot love or show affection to those we hate or dislike.
- The principle of authority. Women, generally, want to choose men that display confidence which is replica of authority. It explains why ladies will fall for men who carry themselves with an aura of importance. An expression of authority in whichever form, can trigger an automatic response from the observer.
- The principle of scarcity this explains the fact that people have higher demand for something that is scarce especially when it is valuable and indispensable. This explains why lovers or couples who live apart as a result of job or other reasons love each other more than those who are always together. Scarcity deepens love. Therefore, try to stay away from your love to deepen your love for each other.
- Recency illusion. This principle explains that your impression about someone may be negative until after an interaction and contact exchange. Then, you begin to discover the good qualities in that person which you didn't take note of before.
- Verbatim effect. This psychology principle explains the fact that people can only remember a general concept instead of full details. When discussing with your crush for the first time, be brief in your details as not all the details will be remembered.
- The power of imagination. Human beings are very creative through imagination. We can form things that are not real in life as though they are real through our thoughts. What we consistently think about usually materialize. So, we can use our imagination to create a strong tie we feel estranged from.
- The power of Attraction. Attraction helps two different people of different backgrounds to come together as friends or as a couple. It is very difficult to relate with people that we are not attracted to. Attraction can help us in the choice of life partner.
"When you do what you fear most, then you can do anything."
~ Stephen Richards
"A wonderful fact to reflect upon, that every human creature is constituted to be that profound secret and mystery to every other." ~ Charles Dickens, A Tale of Two Cities
Imagination is the beginning of creation. You imagine what you desire, you will what you imagine and at last you create what you will." ~ George Bernard Shaw
"To dream by night is to escape your life. To dream by day is to make it happen." ~ Stephen Richards

Mt. Rainier national Park area
Nothing like a fresh coat of paint… sun… and 25ºF.
6-10-15… super sunny and clear…
April, 2015… Over a newly opened Chinook Pass ( quite bit of snow on top but nothing like normal), down through Yakima, Goldendale, and downriver to Cascades Locks. At Cascade Locks I boarded a paddle wheel tour boat and went bcd upstream to The Dalles, Oregon. The next morning up the hill to the Rowena Crest where there are bazilions of wildflowers… then up the river and back through Yakima to home.
A small piece of Mt. Rainier park is oriented to really old/big tree… The area is called "the grove of the patriarchs".

Crescina - Hair follicular islands complete treatment
Thinking of hair loss cases when there's as physiological and non-pathological hair thinning, Crescina has developed two new formulas for ampoules that constitute the Complete Re-growth and Anti-hairloss Hair Follicular Islands Treatment for men.
The follicular islands give more than one hair to the surface, therefore they are extremely important for maintaining hair density.
These formulas were specially developed for men's needs, and they should be applyed alternately for re-launching hair growth and curbing the hair loss.
The number of hairs increases throughout the head, and these become more resistant to falling!
The amber-colored ampoules contain the essential Crescina Re-Growth Complex (cysteine, lysine, glycoprotein + Stem Engine), as well as a new one targeted to the follicular islands, which contains:
Transparent ampoules, however, contain the anti-hairloss ingredients present in the Swiss and European patents (hydroxyproline, aspartic acid, enzyme activator), which are potentiated by the action of taurine, yeast protein, acetyl-tetraopeptide and the HSSC complex.
Use for 5 consecutive days, one ampoule per day, pausing 2 days before a new cycle of 5 applications.
Switch between the amber and the transparent ampoules, keeping this alternation at every beggining of a new cycle of 5 applications.
It is advisable to use for a minimum of 2 months.

After all of the debates and commercials and heated Facebook posts… it's finally Election Day in the USA. Let's not forget we're one nation under God, and when this is over we still need to work together to make this great country successful. My prayers go out for our future leaders.
This porch called me over as I was leaving the street and getting ready to put on my lens cap. It's a nice slice of southern americana, and reminds me of photos taken decades ago.
Both photos are on Kodak Portra 400 film, and were taken with a Minolta SRT-201 camera. I'll tell the story of that camera another day.

Senegal came from behind to secure a 2-2 draw with Madagascar in Antananarivo on Friday afternoon, in the first leg of their 2018 FIFA World Cup qualifying tie.
The visitors stormed back from being two-down with twenty minutes remaining, thanks to back-to-back goals from Moussa Konaté and Sadio Mané.
While enjoying most of the possession against less-fancied Madagascar in the first 45 minutes, Senegal struggled to create clear-cut chances, ultimately going into half-time one goal down through Andriatsima's 27th minute opener.
And Njiva Rakotoharimalala doubled the locals' lead just before the hour mark, much to the joy of the home crowd of Stade Municipal de Mahamasina.
However, second-half substitute Moussa Konaté pulled a goal back for the Lions on 71 minutes, with Southampton playmaker Sadio Mané levelling things up ten minutes later to earn Senegal a point.
Aliou Cissé's men will definitely have to up their game when they host their opponents in Dakar for the return leg on 17 November.

At the meeting of the Albany City Commissioners last night, board members voted to table the proposed pit bull ordinance, and there was no discussion before the final vote.
According to commissioners, this is more than likely the end of the ordinance, although Mayor Hubbard indicated she wasn't sure the issue was dropped.
Regardless, no official brought up a date to revisit the issue.
Some leaders, including the mayor, believe "pit bulls" are dangerous and need to be regulated. But others, including two newly elected officials and several residents who addressed the commissioners at meetings over the last few months, understand that breed specific ordinances are unfair and difficult to enforce.
It appears another sticking point was the city's burden of proof in the determination of whether a dog is or is not a "pit bull." As you recall, the city attorney who drafted the proposal advised commissioners the burden of proof was on dog owners, which is absolutely false. This is why I always stress the need for dog owners to do their own research, understand their rights and the law, question the information and statistics officials use in drafting breed specific ordinances, and speak out when those provisions infringe on your rights.
Finally, the mayor expressed her concern for doing nothing on this issue and her fear for residents who might be hurt in a dog attack.
As noted in our previous blogs, the city of Albany already has a provision in their municipal code that addresses ALL dogs deemed dangerous based on their behavior, establishes requirements for the keeping of those dogs, and penalties for owners who are found in violation of the law.
The mayor's concerns can be alleviated by ensuring the law already in place is STRICTLY ENFORCED. Fine dog owners when they allow their dogs to cause problems in the community, and continue to fine them, on a tier-based fine schedule (i.e., the fine increases with every infraction). Problem dog owners generally have little respect for the responsibility due to their dogs or their neighbors, but faced with increasing penalties that affect their wallet, they strangely become a little more respectful of the law.
Problem dogs are the result of problem dog owners. Addressing these owners, regardless of the breed of dog they own, will create a safer community.
Great job by all those who addressed the commissioners and made their voices heard. You took a situation in which a breed specific ordinance was almost guaranteed to be passed, and turned it around by providing sound, reliable and accurate information regarding the failures of breed specific legislation.
This is a big win, and you should be proud that you helped responsible dog owners avoid a discriminatory ordinance, and an entire community from the false sense of security a breed specific law instills.

Librarians Present to Graduate Medical Education Committee
Nancy Bianchi and Gary Atwood gave a short presentation to the UVM Medical Center's Graduate Medical Education Committee on October 15, 2015. Using Julia Sollenberger's article "The Evolving Role and Value of Libraries and Librarians in Health Care (1)," as a backdrop, the presentation outlined the resources and services that the library provides to residents. Special emphasis was placed on the liaison program, which connects reference librarians to specific departments, and the literature search consultation service available to anyone doing research. The presentation concluded with a request for the resident directors to encourage their students to reach out to the library when they need assistance. After all, as Nancy Bianchi noted, we can't answer a question if you don't ask.
Vermont Library Association Presentation
On October 29th, Nancy Bianchi and Gary Atwood gave a presentation at the Vermont Library Association's College and Special Libraries Section annual conference. Titled "Not Your Mother's Library Tour," the two described how they replaced the traditional library tour for new residents and replaced it with a more interactive discussion of the library's resources and services. The goal of the redesign was to develop a deeper connection between the things that the residents and interns already use and what is available at Dana Medical Library. Participants were also asked to anonymously submit a research obstacle or something similar that they want the librarians to be aware of. The librarians plan to use these responses when designing future educational programs for residents and interns.
Not Another Boring Lecture
The phrase "active engagement" became more meaningful in the physical therapy curriculum this academic semester. Their information literacy instruction moved from being a largely passive series of lectures to a true active learning experience.
As doctoral candidates, physical therapy graduate students are exposed to the literature of evidence-based practice early in their academic career. They begin to learn how to navigate online databases to find the evidence for their clinical practice.
This year, PT students were instructed to complete web-based tutorials before meeting the physical therapy liaison librarian in the classroom. These tutorials reside in an online box beside a live web page that students can use. The online tutorials get the students actively using the databases prior to coming to class. Ovid MEDLINE– Advanced Searching for DPT Students is an example of one of the PT tutorials.
The pre-class preparation was followed by in-class time where the students were quizzed individually on database features and mechanics. Students then joined small groups to repeat the testing activity, and were challenged to find correct answers to quiz questions as a team. Moving away from boring lectures and toward activities that get students using the skills they're learning can lead to engaged students and more meaningful learning experiences.

In a game where Calgary Flames captain Mark Giordano celebrated a big milestone, a Flames rookie hit a milestone of his own. Andrew Mangiapane had an assist on the Flames' first goal in their game against the Arizona Coyotes on Sunday night for his first National Hockey League point.
Mark Giordano's 8th goal of the season is an absolute snipe ? #Flames #ARIvsCGY pic.twitter.com/1RXczA3wvT
— Sportsnet 960 (@Sportsnet960) January 14, 2019
Mangiapane effectively made the goal happen by using his speed to cut between a pair of Coyotes players in the neutral zone and grab a loose puck. After he entered the zone, he passed it to Derek Ryan, who teed it up for Giordano's shot.
The Flames' sixth round pick in the 2015 NHL Draft, Mangiapane has suited up for nine games this season. He and Dillon Dube have functionally been rotating through the fourth line left wing spot for most of the season. Both have been decent, but neither has really grabbed hold of the job as of yet.
It's Mangiapane's turn to make a case for full-time employment, and he finally has a point to show for it.

Mayweather-Pacquiao To Cost $99
HBO and Showtime's May 2 Floyd Mayweather-Manny Pacquiao fight will cost boxing fans $99 to watch in high-definition on pay-per-view, according to published reports.
The fight, which is expected to set PPV buy and revenue records, will carry a suggested retail price of $89 for a standard feed and $99 to watch the fight in high definition, according to the Wall Street Journal. The cost would surpass the $75 price tag for a high definition feed set by several recent Mayweather fights.
Industry observers have expressed concern that a high $99 price tag would curtail potential fight PPV buys as more people congregate under one roof to watch the event. Nevertheless, the fight, which will be co-distributed by HBO and Showtime, is expected to surpass the $152 million in PPV revenue generated by the 2013 Mayweather-Canelo Alvarez fight.

International Budget Trips for Fall and Winter
It's never too soon to be planning your next trip. Although the summer months are typically the best for travelers for the weather and a more flexible work schedule, there's no reason why you should allow yourself to have a boring fall/winter. There are exciting locations all over the world that won't break your bank account.
August: Berlin
August is a perfect time to visit Berlin because of the weather peaks, on average, in the mid-70's (Fahrenheit) at this time of the year. Aside from the best museums, art, and historical sites in Berlin visitors can find that in August there are a lot of other events too! The International Berlin Beer Festival takes place August 4-6 while at the same time the German-American Folk Festival is ongoing from July 21-13 August. Accommodations in this city do book up quickly, so make sure you book a hotel or Airbnb well in advance.
September: Rome
Is there ever really a bad time to visit Rome? Well, no. However, September is absolutely the best due to its Italian weather that is cooling down although still pleasantly warm averaging at about 70 degrees Fahrenheit. There still is a buzz in the city walls from last minute tourism before the cold weather comes, but it is also the time when the hotels can give their best values. Early September also begins soccer season which is exciting because Rome is home to two soccer teams that are bitter rivals. Also from July to late September movies are shown outdoors nearly every night during the summer nights on Tiberina Island.
Still trying to get some extra sunrays before winter comes? Cape Town, South Africa is the ideal place to go in October as it is their spring and the weather averages 60-70 degrees Fahrenheit. Besides the hotels averaging $80 a night there are many food and wine festivals, outdoor live music parties and of course- whale watching! The Whale Watching season goes from June to November annually and brings many visitors worldwide for this FREE once in a lifetime event. Tourists should especially come in October because it is when Cape Town hosts the Fringe Festival (September 22- October 8). The event showcases over 80 mostly local dance, theatre, performing arts and music gigs.
November: Rio de Janiero
While the sea may always be warm enough for a swim in Rio de Janerio November is the best month of the year to visit because the average sea temperature is about 73 degrees Fahrenheit. It is spring in Rio in November, but the temperatures average between 70-80 degrees during the day and 60s by night. Between the temperatures and the prices being just-right makes November the best month to travel to Rio de Janiero.
December: Frankfurt
Germany is known for their extravagant Christmas markets and magical city-wide décor, but that only contributes to the reason it is the best city to visit in December. In addition, hotels will be the cheapest at this time than all year long at 56% cheaper than at their peak. Besides the standard Frankfurt must-see sites, in December visitors should go ice skating at the Eissporthalle by taking the U7 train or tram number 12. Another fun choice is to take a ride on the Ebbelwoi-Express which is a historical tram ride that takes visitors past many sites throughout the city while serving apple juice or cider so you can see all the city has to offer!

Video: Conversation with director Bill Gundry about
production of
by David Davalos
November 1 - 17, 2013
This witty, anachronistic whirlwind, beautifully penned by local playwright David Davalos, tackles weighty subjects such as religion, philosophy, and literature. Wittenberg is a delightfully irreverent text which introduces audiences to just what (and whom!) made Hamlet the man he is today.

Ebay is currently running a special listing sale. If you own a ebay store (the basic store is $15.95 a month), you get to list any item on auction for free. There is no limit to how many you put on and they will all be free.
This started last Wednesday and will continue to this coming Tuesday.
For the last four days I have been putting a TON of items on auction. I put my store in vacation mode and listed all the items that were previously in the store at auction. I listed them for one day. Normally I don't do "one day auctions" because a lot of people miss seeing them. I believe 5 or 7 days are best. But I wanted to try something different. I listed about 350 items at a price I would be happy selling them for and then watched my sales.
Day 1: I sold 27 items for a sales total of $473. The items that were not sold on the one-day auctions were relisted for another day.
Day 2: I sold 24 items for a sales total of $441. I again put the unsold items back on a one-day listing.
Day 3 (yesterday): I sold 21 items for a total of $471. I listed the rest of the unsold stuff last night.
I have been printing shipping labels around the clock - ha! 70+ packages is a lot of work!
Here are a few things that did fairly well:
Etro cashmere cardigan, sold for $68.33.
St. John Collection skirt. St. John has a great following on ebay for their "Santana" knit fabric if you can find them at thrifts. This basic skirt sold for $64.99.
I was in love with this dress. It was from the late 1960's or early 1970's and it had lantern sleeves and a train. (Swoon!). It sold for $55.
A cache prom or cocktail dress. This one went for $50.
I came across a ton of Berek pieces a few weeks back. A few have done between $25-$30 which is usual for Berek. This piece sold for $45.
I don't pick up a lot of shoes because they are expensive to ship and I don't do well with them. I did pick this pair of Dansko's up though. These have a following and are SUPER comfy. I would have kept these for myself if they were a bit bigger. They sold for almost $30 and they were used.
Today we are off to church, then the supermarket and then back home to nap. I am trying to eat healthier which is quite expensive in our area.

Heaven Can Wait
by Nicolas Trudgian
B-17 Fortresses of the Bloody Hundredth - the 8th Air Force's 100th Bomb Group return to Thorpe Abbotts following a raid on enemy oil refineries. Shown here is the imaginatively named B-17, Heaven Can Wait, on final approach to Thorpe Abbotts after the intense battle on September 11, 1944.
Skilfully piloted by Harry Hempy, the seriously damaged B-17G has struggled 500 miles home on two engines to make it back to England - they lost their tail gunner that fateful day. Below the descending bomber stream, an agricultural traction engine peacefully ploughs the wheat stubble in preparation for next year's vital crop, the farm workers oblivious to the unimaginable traumas experienced by the crews of the returning B-17 Fortresses.
Overall size: 23½" x 30½"
Available in the following editions
Limited edition
Signed by four B-17 pilots of the 100th Bomb Group.

Preston Primary is a government primary school located in Melbourne's northern suburb of Preston. The staff are dedicated to realising the potential in all children and to actively engage them in the world around them.
To help assist in providing an AV system within the MPA (Multi Purpose Area) at the school, DIB's were engaged to provide a simplified solution for teaching and learning within the space. Our Solutions Consultant, Gabi, worked closely with the school to decide on a suitable AV design.
A mid-range Epson G-series projector was chosen for it's bright 6,000 plus lumens count. This was projected onto a 150-inch Grandview Motorised SmartScreen with high quality HDMI & VGA inputs for devices. The ever-reliable and easy-to-use JED T460 control panel was chosen for the MPA AV system. Apple TV was also added to gain access to the AV system, enabling staff to "mirror" content from their Apple device.
By consulting what the specific needs were within the MPA space, DIB was able to provide a suitable, easy-to-use AV system, which will provide Preston Primary with great reliability and peace of mind.
For assistance with your custom audio visual requirements, contact a DIB Audio Visual Solutions Consultant today Phone (03) 9457-4800 or contact us

Revive Her Drive
ASF: "Remember how easy it was to kiss girls playing truth or dare in high school? Well, guess what... it still works with college age women... Except now you're fucking! My wingman and I use this everytime we bring girls back to my house. We always end up banging our chicks of choice, but the best part is you get to do freaky shit with both of them! Not to mention that the lesbian action (unavoidable when playing with me!) is a great way to psyche yourself up for some serious sex. We make a plan about what and who we are gonna do before we start and prep each other with good dares and truths. DO NOT play this without whip cream... this is the most important accessory you will need. You will be amazed when you see how turned on a girl can get just by liking whipped cream off her stomach. Start off with little stuff like kisses and then move up to licking whipped cream off nipples, dryfucking, lapdances, and the closer... Dare your wing to go in a room with one of the chicks for 5 minutes and see what happens. At this time grab the other girl and wear out your carpet. At this point the girls will be so turned on from the licking and kissing that you can basically do whatever you want with them. When you're alone in the room you can be like, "I dare you to let me come in your mouth" etc. Sounds great so far right? But your worried about how to get the game started. You cant just say, "Ok, time for truth or dare". To the girls it sounds more like, "Ok, time for us to use you for our sexual entertainment." You have to sneak them into it. My recipe goes like this: start off with the greatest drinking game of all time, Asshole, to get them nice and liquored up. Then move on to the game I'm about to describe.
Throw out any cards below an 8. Take the rest and spread them in a circle around the biggest cup you can find. Now you take turns drawing cards.
8 = Band Names. Go around the table saying band names. Each name has to start with the last letter of the previous name. For instance, I say Vanilla Ice, the next person says Eric Clapton, next person says Nine Inch Nails. If you cant think of one in ten seconds then you drink and the next person draws a card.
9 = Truth. You can ask whoever you want.
10 = Person to the left drinks for 5 sec. Jack = Dare. Whoever you want. Queen = Everyone drinks for 5 count.
King = Fill up the huge cup with 1/3 of the way full with whatever you are drinking. The person who draws the last king has to pound whatever nasty mixture ends up in the cup. After a few rounds you will start running out of band names since you can't say the same one twice. Wait till one of the girls cant remember a band name then say, "Lets just play truth or dare". They will happily agree if your dares and truths were exciting and getting them horny.
My wing and I played this thursday night with 3 girls and 4 guys. At the beginning of the night the girls actually asked me if they could stay over so they didn't have to drive home drunk! After much a serious truth or dare session with tons of sexual acts, I dared my wing to go in a room for 5 min with one of the chicks and see what happens. They never came out. It was getting late and I had to work the next morning. I tossed the other two girls some blankets and said, "You two can sleep in my bed if you want, but dont be thinking we're gonna hook up and shit cause I really gotta get some sleep." 10 minutes later one of the girls cruises into my room, jumps in bed with me and starts kissing me. She was about an 8 but it was 3:30 so I told her I had to sleep and to leave her number and we would continue this the next night. In the meantime my brother has gotten the 3rd chick into his room and my other friend is spanking hank in my bathroom.
I've never played this game before without all the girls willing to bang at the end, whether they have boyfriends or not. I got the idea a year ago when I was asking a girl if she had ever had a lesbian experience. She told me that the only time she ever did was in a crazy game of truth or dare when she got dared to eat some girl out for 5 min. Neither of these girls were bi before it happened. This just goes to show that the possibilities are endless!!!"
