Leo Auffmann and his wife are sleeping when Leo wakes up one morning and seems to hear a song directed to him by the world itself. He decides he owes the world something back, much to Lena's confusion. Leo goes to the garage and makes a blueprint for a machine. He places toys and souvenirs on each panel of the machine's plan. When his son Saul comes in, Leo explains that he's making a happiness machine, but he isn't sure how to complete it. Saul adds a flower and his father is satisfied that the plans are finished.
At breakfast, Leo explains what he's making and announces that he's taking a vacation to finish it. He starts going around collecting photos of things that make happiness, and asks Lena what makes her happy. She believes it's better not to try and determine the source of happiness and then burns her roast because of Leo's questions.
Back in the workshop, Leo decides that happiness should be bright and starts making his machine. He ignores his four children, leaving them to Lena to care for. Leo continues to work late each night until he finally comes in and tells his family that the happiness machine is complete, and then collapses.
Late the next morning, Leo wakes up and discovers he's overslept. Lena tells him that he should give it up but Leo refuses. That night, Leo is trying to sleep when he hears the machine activate. He hears Saul yell and goes to check on the boy. Saul is in bed, but he's sweating and clearly upset despite the fact he's asleep. Realizing that Saul has used the machine, Lena decides to call the trash removal company and have the happiness machine taken away. They will arrive in two hours, and Leo asks his wife to give him that much time to prove the machine is good.
Leo pulls the happiness machine out onto the driveway and invites Lena to try it. She reluctantly gets inside and Leo assures the children that everything is fine. He turns it on and Lena is bombarded with pictures of faraway places, the smell of flowers, and the sound of music. For a few moments she is overwhelmed, but then pounds on the door and demands to be released. When Leo lets her out, Lena tells him that he's created a sadness machine. All it does is remind her of all the things she can never have and the places she can never go. Lena explains that no one wants a permanent sunset, or perfect temperature. They'd just get bored. She tells Leo to make do, and he wonders what to do. Lena leaves it up to him, but warns that they'll be unable to resist the machine. Like Saul, they'll soon be tormented by the happiness they can only experience second-hand. When the garbage men arrive, Leo refuses to let them take the machine.
Lena leads the children away and Leo is left in despair. Saul comes out to admire the sunset and point it out to his father. Realizing what he's looking at. Leo enters the happiness machine and wonders how he could have gotten things so wrong. He turns on the machine but it starts to smoke. Leo gets out just in time as the machine burns up as Lena and the children look on.
Once the fire department put out the blaze, Leo stares at it in despair. Lena tells him to look at their house and peer in the windows. Leo looks inside and sees his wife and four children going about their lives, and realizes that he already has a happiness machine: a home and family.

Apple at $310, the sky is the limit!
Do you know what is the greatest irony of life? The greatest irony in life is that you are always faced with having to made decisions and you never have enough information to make the best ones! Apple hit $310, did you buy when last year when it was $80? Why not? What's the matter with you, my book The psychology of Investing came out in March 2009 and predicted on page 43 that Apple will hit $300, why didn't you get it? Well, of course am kidding, that's the whole point, there were 24 others books and publications by that title on the market, how could you possibly know which one to get! Look, do you remember the girl you didn't marry? Of course you are forgiven, you didn't have enough information on all 10 of them to select the right one! Look, do you remember the business you started and then asked yourself why you didn't start the business you really wanted to do? Again, life is full of Approach-Approach conflicts, all the choices look good at the time, so you didn't know that the one you got wouldn't bring the results you expected! This is why you didn't follow my book, not enough "impressive" information! Well, that is precisely the reason, how do you decide when you have 25 choices in books, schools, girls, boys, businesses, careers or political candidates to select? Your chance on hitting in 2009 on the right book on investing was 4%! I want you to memorize one of the most fascinating psychological principles there is: The Approach-Approach Conflict! So many choices look good so you do what your folks did – select the one that looked impressive, the one with sales pitch, not the one that informs well, but the one that folks liked. Sure, I bought Apple in 1997, so what? Sure, I predicted that it will hit $300 (page 43, and more), so what? My book cover was designed only by a friend. Sure, the rules of investing were clear, easy to follow, but so what? The book is too different, no one wanted to recommend it as a serious investing tool by a – psychologist. Oh, well, good luck to everyone, remember, there is still time in life to master the approach-approach conflict in your relationships, you can still become wealthy, healthy and happy!

Technology TrendsPosted: September 14, 2008 Filed under: Trends Leave a comment
I was reading the 2008 Gartner report on current trends. I agree that SaaS is a clear mega trend will change the way we use applications both professionally and privately. SaaS in the mobile realm also means browser based, which translates to a common denominator between users simplifying the developers need to support multiple native clients. This means a growing need for next generation mobile data networks.
Unified communications is a harder topic. It is not just about linking communication tools with basic situational awareness. We need to examine how people communicate today on the whole (or how our kids communicate), which requires us to look at social networks and how they impact unified communications. Gartner's unified communications stance is word for word from Microsoft's strategy manual and speaks volumes about Gartner's true impartiality.
Virtualization has been a topic of discussion for a few years and every year it is in the top ten trends. SaaS has been around for a few years, but is still in its infancy. The same applies for virtualization and multi-core computing. All offer huge potential and change.
Green tech is a Gartner trend, but in my opinion it is mostly hype. No one in the trenches talks about green tech. They talk about optimizing supply chain to reduce fuel costs amongst other things. Green tech is a marketing slogan. We talk about higher ideals, but by definition market economies are driven by supply and demand. We have been talking about global warming for years, but it required oil prices to rise above a free market pain point for any real change to happen. Politician can speed change through legislation, but free economy will only allow tampering to a certain extent. To every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. In the free market economy the forces that are applied are based on power interests and the in the long chain the ultimate power is with the modern consumer… not the idealistic voter. This statement I base on Maslow's hierarchy of needs… base needs will always supercede idealistic needs.
What I am missing from these technology reports is Location Based Services. Situational awareness has huge potential in terms of making content more focused/accessible and maximizing content value to user. From discussing with colleagues across the world this is the fundamental need that they convey to me. I guess Nokia did not pay their Gartner dues this past year. I also would have thought that Google would have pushed this topic harder than it evidently did.

Gospel Telecaster
May 2, 2008
Here's the song that turned me around. I used to be kind of neutral toward Bruce Springsteen. I thought he was overrated and overhyped, but undeniably talented.
Then I heard this song and I "got it." Bruce is the man. He has stated that there is a common thread between front porch music, whorehouse music, field music, bar room music and church music. Here he bridges the gap with a proclamation of hope and good news.
I dare anyone else to write a gospel song this good, this effective, this chillbump-inducing.
That's a Fender Custom Shop Telecaster with Joe Barden pickups. Anyone who feels like buying me one just like it can feel free to indicate so in the comments or by email.

This book really captured my attention right from the start. I was filled with twists and turns throughout. By the end, I started to feel a bit whip-lashed from the story changing directions so often. Overall though, a really enjoyable, fast-paced read. I just had to know how it was going to end!
Psychological thriller! Stick with it - you will be so confused, but it will make you want to read faster and longer. Highly recommend!
Not at all what I expected, however, I highly recommend it! This book proved to be a highly complex and suspenseful psychological thriller full of twists and turns at every page. Not your average, run-of-the mill mystery!
I kind of lost interest in this early on; there was a type of fecklessness about the main character which was tiresome.

i do NOT plan on letting her know.. at least i dont think so...
She had ElectroRock v3 Disc 2..AND..Electro Rock v2.. Pretty odd. haha.
to avoid bringing up the subject again to get info, all I can really do is go by her initial reaction. She said 'he' was 'good' and knew that 'he' lived in cali. it appears as though her brothers would be more prone to recognize voice...
I wonder if the brothers are reading this post? How old are they?
Are you the brothers? lol.
Do you have a sister who is around 20 yrs. of age? about 5'6. light skinned. brown hair with streaks and -
I don't exactly plan to meet any of her family. Just barely met her. Our relationship appears as though it shall remain at school.
^_^ !!!
I mean...what would YOU do?
it is certainly a different situation...
sometimes it is not always wise to deal all of your cards in the open...especially at such an early stage.
mary jane didnt find out who spiderman was till like the end of part 1? or was it part 2?
not saying that im spiderman or that my life philosophy revolves around some type of animated character...^_^...but you get what i mean...
i kinda want to do an adlib next time though...lol

- February 4, 2009 at 5:51 AM
I'd just drop hints (seconding the 'bzzzz' haha) and just let everything go from there naturally...let her find out on her own unless she still had absolutely NO clue after a while...then I'd eventually tell her.
Man that's awesome that you're in that Spiderman type situation...hope it plays out as well for you as it did for Peter Parker (it DID turn out okay, right? lol).

The Spiderman allusion is totally awesome.
What if she doesn't understand the 'bzzz' and looks at him with this total WTF look plastered across her face...like five question marks over her head? Haha. Just saying.
- February 4, 2009 at 5:45 PM
I agree with Isaac, you should use some of your mannerisms from those mixtapes, or next time you see her you should be like " I've been listening to that Turbo guy and he intrigues you", then ask her how she feels about him.... Or you? Lol that way you kinda get a sense of how she feels about you even though she don't know you or whatever like that.....

Yeah, she could be puzzled by a random "bzzzz." It's quite possible that she'll find out on her own eventually. You're a better sport than me though. lol

oh yeah, that riddle....
are you planning on doing some videography (cinematic), collabs with three personas; T Double, Battletoad, and Turbo(pretend to we tend), and hologram type stuff (magazine magazine. december 16.)? i'm really just taking stabs at it, but the riddle's been teasing me since i read it last week. i'm still trying to figure it out, lol. "date with the three." does that mean your mixtape will be released in march..? "wars." does that refer to the hologram stuff or rap battles, or something totally different?
hahhaahha. i'm stoked for it all the same.
one love.

u should talk about why he's(you) is such a bad artist with no talent. And mention it all the time. See if you can convince her that he(you) sucks. lol maybe thats just my twisted mind. or tell a story about something that happened to you that's a narrative of one of your songs.

Magneta Lane "Dancing With Daggers" (Paper Bag)
Girl groups have a well-publicized back history of being more novelty act than anything real and honest. It's a shame really cause for every band like The Donnas I firmly believe there are incredible bands like Magneta Lane that are truly making some great music. I have to go back all the way to my first listens to Sleater-Kinney to remember the last time I was so enamored with an all-female band. Magneta Lane are a power trio from Canada that play catchy indie rock with definite nods towards legendary bands like Sonic Youth, The Pretenders and Blondie. The band's most remarkable trait is one of simplicity. The ten songs that make up Dancing With Daggers hit hard and fast and the girls are in and out before you know it. No track goes beyond the four minute mark and the album is over in a half an hour. That's not to say the ladies of Magneta Lane write simple tunes though. This album is downright infectious with the kind of hooks that would make the Yeah Yeah Yeahs jealous. Vocalist Lexi Valentine's sexy vocal tendencies really carry these songs farther than they should ever go. Especially on the album closer, "Butterflies Are Beautiful" which shows the band can drop some introspection into their songs as well. Dancing With Daggers is a mighty fine debut for Magneta Lane and one that bodes well for the future of the band.

BRIDGEPORT, CONN. – A Bridgeport man has pleaded guilty in a shooting that left one man dead and another injured, according to a report by The Connecticut Post.
Efraim Rivera, 40, fatally shot Miguel Martinez, 34, and wounded his brother, Jose, on Ogden Street last May, The Connecticut Post reported.
Police told The Connecticut Post there had been a longstanding feud between the Rivera and the Martinez families and Miguel Martinez had just been released from prison, where he had been serving time for robbery.
Rivera was about to stand trial Monday when he pleaded guilty to first-degree manslaughter with a firearm, first-degree assault and possession of a pistol without a permit, The Connecticut Post story said.
He could get up to 10 years behind bars when he is sentenced in June, The Connecticut Post reported.

The Mega Foundation
Concerning Caloric Restriction
July 24, 2004
What fraction of the protein and fat we consume isn't burned as fuel in the
mitochondria, but is employed for turnover of protein and fats in the body? For example,
consider a woman who ingests 2,200 kilo-calories on an ad lib diet, of which 200
kilo-calories (40 grams of protein and 4.5 grams of fat) are used structurally
rather than metabolized as fuel. Now consider the same woman 50%
calorie-restricted, who requires 300 kilo-calories in protein and fat (viz., 58
grams of protein and 7 grams of fat) for structural maintenance. She's
functioning on 1,100 kilo-calories of which only 800 calories are oxidized for
energy. Consequently, in metabolic terms, she's actually 60% caloric-restricted:
(2,000 - 800)/2,000.
(2) One of the issues that I want to address before it becomes accepted because no one has questioned it is the idea that CR doesn't actually exist as a phenomenon... that it's all just a matter of size and the corresponding calorie requirement (Scott McClatchey) My picture of Scott McClatchey's model is that there's no such thing as a CR effect, and there's no such thing as metabolic efficiency. Everybody's metabolic efficiency is about the same. A woman who is 4' 10"' tall, with a BMI of 20.1 who weighs 95 pounds will, in accordance with the Harris-Benedict estimation formula, require in the neighborhood of 1,579 calories a day, assuming an activity factor of 1.35. Harris-Benedict_Equation.htm There might be modest variations in this woman's caloric requirements depending upon her percentages of fat, bone mass, etc., and of course, there will be significant variations with levels of exercise, but basically, all 4' 10" women who engage in the same level of exercise will require the same number of daily calories. At the other extreme, a 6' 8" Goliath with a BMI of 25 will weigh 228 pounds, and will require about 3,218 calories a day to keep him percolating. Using the conversion factor that Scott McClatchey provides, that a 21% reduction in calorie intake will result in a 13% increase in lifespan, then our 50%-calorie-restricted "Davida's" average lifespan will be 50% times 13/21, or 31% longer than Goliath's. If I set the average lifespan of the "Little Woman" at 82, Goliath's average lifespan would be about 55 (assuming that he doesn't smoke). If I set the maximum lifespan (defined as the mean lifespan of the longest-lived decile, or roughly, the lifespan at which 95% of the population has already died) at 23% above the average lifespan, then our longest-lived one-in-twentieth Goliath would have a maximum lifespan of about 67, and our Davida would have a one-in-twenty lifespan of about 100. (Only about one person in 10,000 makes it to 100.) More about this later. If I use a lower maximum lifespan of 96 for our "Little Woman", then I find Goliath having an average lifespan of about 52,and a maximum lifespan of 64, requiring reading glasses at, perhaps, 30. If in addition, he burns extra calories through exercise... if, for example, he's very muscular, and works on a construction crew... then he might require reading glasses when he's in his late 20''s, and would be physiologically 65 at 40.
|Relative Age
|4' 10" "Davida"
|5' 4" Man
|5' 8" Man
|6' Man
|6' 8" Man
(3) What happens with people who can eat and eat and eat and not put on weight? (Are there such people? I think I was one of them until I reached my late 20's.) Do they actually eat much less over the course of a day's time than they seem to be eating? Or do they simply not absorb more food than they need? Or do they absorb it into their bloodstreams, but then get rid of it without storing it as fat? Or are they metabolically inefficient, perhaps generating extra heat with their extra calories? Or several of the above?
(4) For people who have adapted to the temperate and arctic zones (e. g., us), the ability to store fat to last through long hard winters would have great survival value. For people who have adapted to the tropics, this shouldn't be so necessary.
This raises questions about Aubrey de Grey's argument that the CR effect need only be sufficient to last through a winter or two. In the tropics, that requirement for a CR effect more-or-les wouldn't exist. For that reason, it becomes especially important that caloric-restricted monkeys show extended lifespans, since monkeys are tropically-adapted animals found outside the tropics only in zoos. That seasonal requirement for a CR effect also shouldn't exist for very dark-skinned people who have also adapted to tropical milieus.
Personally, I think that the results of the Washington University study, coupled with the marked depressions of body temperature that we're experiencing (including my own temperatures in the mid-90's), argue that a caloric restriction effect is occurring in us humans. Whether it's good for two years or twenty eamins to be proven, but the answers to some of these answerable questions should help us find out.
(5) How do fully fed people with BMI's in the range of 18-20 compare with the CRONers in the Washington University study when it comes to serum lipids, carotid intima thicknesses, and serum glucose and insulin levels? Do they have the same values? Are these remarkable values simply a matter of being slim? Are they shared by all who are equally slim, or are the CRONers' values unusual? (I suspect the answer is that the CRONers are very unusual. Otherwise, the Washington Universty researchers wouldn't have stated their results the way they did.)
(6) How much of the CRON results are a consequence of the ON part of the CRON diet? (What I'm seeking here is confirmation that a CR effect is taking place that goes beyond everyone who has a BMI of 18 to 20 and good nutrition.)
(7) In dealing with rates and percentages, we must be careful to remember that rates and percentages aren't additive. Rates are multiplicative, and percentages must be converted back to ratios and then multiplied. For example, 14% + 14% = 29.96%. (1.14 X 1.14 = 1.2996). This means that a linear relationship between calorie-restriction and lifespan is really pointing to a non-linear relationship between true calorie burn rate and lifespan--not to mention the added complication that not all calories ingested are burned (see paragraph 1 above).
(8) If aging is a result of burning calories, why isn't lifespan inversely proportional to calories burned? If I burn calories twice as fast, shouldn't I live half as long? If I'm 60% calorie-restricted, shouldn't I live 2½ times as long?
(9) One way I can arrive at a model in which calorie-count isn't inversely proportional to lifespan is to suppose that part of aging depends solely upon the calender and is independent of calorie intake. If I assume that 50% of aging is tied to the calender, and 50% of aging is dependent upon calorie intake, then cutting calories by 50% would yield a rate of aging which is 50% + 50% X 50% = 75%. This would lead to a lifespan extension of about 33%... close to the 31% discussed above. However, I know of no reason why aging should be tied to the calender.

Sacrifice – Why I love SEBTS
August 28, 2009
I go a "Great Commission Seminary" and love every minute of it.
This past week we raised over $60,000 for international missions, including this story:
The most poignant gift to appear in the offering plates was a diamond engagement ring, a matching wedding band, and a note, featuring a picture of Lottie Moon, with the words, "For Lottie." The ring set, which is being appraised, was only one example of the sacrifice students made to make sure that all people who have been called may have the chance to go to the nations, so that all the nations may have the chance to hear of salvation in Jesus Christ.

Advice to new grads
After graduating from college umpteen years ago, I somehow managed to find a successful career. It's had itse ups and downs, but I can safely say that I'm happy with it now. I make enough money to keep a roof over my head and pay for my hobbies and indulgences. I get enough time off and flexibility with my schedule to have a life outside of work. How did I get there? Well, I didn't realize it at the time, but I was following the advice in this article, on Get Rich Slowly. http://www.getrichslowly.org/blog/2008/05/01/life-after-school-advice-for-new-graduates/
Some Excerpts:
"Treat your time as an investment. It's more important to invest your time wisely than to invest your money wisely."
"The people you work with are more important than the company. You want to work with people who have high integrity, people you can trust. It's nice to work for a great company, but it's better to work with great people."
"What you studied in school does not matter. Students should major in subjects they enjoy. They should pursue learning. One of Ron's colleagues is a brilliant lawyer who has a degree in music. He knows a judge with a degree in pharmacology. Your degree does not matter."
"Self-discipline is the common denominator among the successful. In order to get into college and to earn a degree, one must exercise delayed gratification. This doesn't end after school. Delayed gratification and self-discipline are necessary for continued success in life."
"Be willing to do grunt work. By doing the entry-level jobs, you're building skills necessary to move up. As you progress in your career, find things in each job to be passionate about."

Funds to Fit in Five Hours of Culture; Museums to Take Lead
Byline: BY LAURA SHARPE Daily Post Staff
LIVERPOOL'S museums will be given funding to help provide every school pupil with five hours of high-quality culture per week.
National Museums Liverpool (NML), which includes the Walker Art Gallery and the Museum of Liverpool, will play a part in a new government scheme announced yesterday.
But education leaders are raising concerns about its practicalities, and whether it will take place in school hours.
The Department for Children, Schools and Families launched the pounds 25m "Find Your Talent" scheme (FYT) to give children the chance to experience art and culture through shows, galleries and theatres.
NML have agreed to help deliver the scheme, managed by Creative Partnerships through the Arts Council England.
The scheme will give children hands-on experience of acting, playing a musical instrument, creating art and other opportunities, and will be piloted in 10 UK areas.
Carol Rogers, executive director for visitor management and learning at NML, said the scheme was exciting and would build on the success of the eight museums. …

This weekend…
From from what I believe to be the perspective of a fuel supplier!
(Because we're still in the middle of a gas panic and stations can't fill their tanks fast enough…)
Me: (looking at a list of empty stations a mile long…) Okay guys, we're getting gas again, let's get out there and fill up these pumps.
Driver: It's crazy! We're filling them up as fast as we can, but every store we fill up needs gas again within hours. Surely people don't really need that much fuel!
Me: I know it's tough, but we've got to do the best we can. America needs to get out and go shopping and get their nails done! We may be in an economic crisis, but that won't stop consumerism. Go Go Feelings of Entitlement!
Station 432: I'm out of gas, what are you going to do about it?
Station 68: There's no fuel, I know refineries are going again, so why can't I get gas?
Station 32: I just had two fist fights over one pump, I need gas now!
Concerned Consumer: My Hummer is below a quarter of a tank, I just had to drive 15 miles to fill it up so I could take my kids to dinner and the movies. This is ridiculous! I should get some kind of compensation for what I'm having to go through.
Me: I know, I'm sorry that it has to be this way. Please bear with us. In the meantime, maybe you could have a nice dinner at home and a game night or something. Spending time at home with our children is a good thing right? We should all be doing our part to conserve fuel until supply lines can be filled again.
Station 15: I'm going broke here! No one comes in to buy stuff any more because there's no gas and my prices on everything else is too high! I'm not convenient unless I sell gas.
Concerned Consumer: Phsht! Are you telling me how to raise my kids? What would you know about caring for a family?
Wife: Honey, I really need you to come home. The yard needs to be mowed, the kids miss you, and I just really want to spend some time with you. You haven't been home all week! This isn't good for our marriage!
Me: I know dear, I promise to be home as soon as we get this situation under control. As soon as this is over, we're going on that vacation in the mountains I promised you. If I can last that long…
Station 78: If you don't get me gas soon, I'm switching to BP!
Driver: Hey boss, I'm stuck on GA 400. Several cars were following me to my next stop and one guy was driving next to me with a guy in the back of his pickup truck with a water hose. Short story is that they accidentally rear-ended me. I'm going to be out of commission while I get repairs and scrape this guy off of the back of my truck. His last words were "GO Dawgs!!!"
Station 7: Woo Hoo! I can charge whatever I want and these fools will pay it. Bring on some more fuel before I run out and I'll pay extra!
Another Driver: Yes sir, I'm at station #54 and I can't get in the parking lot. People saw me pulling in and they lined up at the pumps. Now I'm blocked out while people won't move because they fear that they'll lose their place in line. Can I just run over their cars and fill up the tanks?
Me: No, just stay where you are, eventually they'll catch on…
Driver: Okay, But they're starting to look at me funny.
Station 865: I can't handle it any more! I'm so bored! Please bring me gas so I can talk to people!
Me: I just need a nap…
So that's what I imagine the life of a fuel distributor is right now. I certainly feel for those guys.
Good Luck! I'm praying for you!
BTW – I was able to fill up my tank on Friday morning and I went straight home and have been goofing around the house all weekend. I have taken some time to read the stories of the shortage and almost all of them revolve around the fact that we're doing this to ourselves. So please try to keep driving to a bare minimum and drive slower to conserve fuel. This could be over a lot quicker if we'd just compromise our lifestyles a little and let these guys get their jobs done…
One Response to "This weekend…"
it blows my mind to think you guys (and my friends in Nashville) are dealing with this. we have absolutely NO gas shortage here…what a weird world we live in. maybe I should start shipping gas and make some money. set up a little .com business. ;0)

I used it on my belly fat that was just stubborn, 2-3mls did it, and now its all gone. A little painful but worth it
Posted by Caroline on Jun 28th 2017
I was interested in getting Kybella for my chin but didn't want to spend a fortune. I found this website and have placed multiple orders. I've used the deoxycholic acid on my chin, thighs, love handles and upper arms. It takes a little bit for the swelling to go down and I give it 6 weeks before deciding if I need a second treatment. Overall, I'm pleased with the results.
Posted by Francis with twins on Apr 9th 2017
I had a lot of baby fat under my chin and butt and thighs and tummy. Finally got rid of most of it. The area was painful for a few minutes, but worth it for getting rid of fat that I couldn't get rid of by dieting and working out.
Posted by Unknown on Apr 3rd 2017
Two treatments and two weeks and resulted in a flat stomach just in time for summer.
Posted by Alexis J on Mar 20th 2017
Used the solution for spot removal of fat around the thighs and the abdomen. Had some soreness for a few days, but after second treatment the fat is gonne.
Posted by Dan Kotter, RN on Jan 21st 2017
I used this on my chin fat 2 days ago. It was a little painful. There was a little swelling, which was to be expected. The fat is 1/2 inch less.
Posted by Katrina PA-C on Jan 9th 2017
Good for slimming the thighs and tummy. Better than liposuction and cheaper. Paid COD for convenience.
Posted by Mira, RN on Dec 7th 2016
Great results. I had thighs done 2 weeks ago and I had decrease in size of thighs of about 1.4 inches. Now there is thigh gap. )) A bit painful.
Posted by Janet MD on Dec 3rd 2016
I could feel discomfort after a week. As for results, inner thighs decreased 1 inch.
Posted by Amber PA-C on Nov 10th 2016
As for pain... stays sore for a few days. I had redness and swelling, along with some lumps, but when the swelling went down, the results were fantastic.
I plan to do my inner thighs next. I did one spot a month ago and can still feel where the shot was.

Title: Tangling With The Tiger
Author: Vivi Andrews
Series: Lone Pine Pride #5
Genre: Paranormal Romance
Length: Novel
Available: August 18th
It might be love. If they don't kill each other first.
Siberian tiger-shifter Dominec Giroux doesn't play well with others. Horribly scarred by the Organization scientists who killed his family and tried to turn him into their pet assassin, his sanity has been hanging by a thread ever since his escape.
His one reason for living—revenge. But when he snaps during one of the shifters' strikes against the Organization and goes on a killing spree, it doesn't go over so well with his pride mates.
As the only female lieutenant in Lone Pine Pride history, Grace Calaveras has a lot to prove, and a lot on her plate. The last thing she needs to deal with is Dominec's brand of crazy, but until she can get him under control, she's his babysitter.
It would take a miracle for these two to find common ground, but when they're sent on a mission that could impact the future of every shifter in the world, lioness and tiger form an uneasy alliance…and unleash an attraction that could be their salvation. If it doesn't destroy them both.
Warning: This book contains a scarred, brooding tiger with an unconventional approach to romance, a feisty, flirty lioness who doesn't know how to quit, love triangles, secret missions, and rooftop kisses hot enough to melt the Montana snow.

Oh, this was good. I really enjoyed this latest installment from the Lone Pine Pride series, with its fierce heroine and thoroughly haunted hero. It's only my second book in this setting (after the novella, Unbearable Desire) but I followed along pretty well considering most of the characters and plots were new to me – so if you're new to this shifter world but are intrigued by the setting, go for it.
Grace is a Strong Female Character in the best possible way. She's not just a soldier in her pride, she's a lieutenant, possibly the first female one ever, and she's willing to work hard and do whatever she can to protect her people. Although I wasn't sure why women hadn't taken on such a role before – since wild African lionesses are far from passive – I did like the way Grace handled herself. She's strong and confident and smart, and has grown used to working twice as hard as the men around her to prove herself – even though no one treats her differently because of her gender.
I loved her secure place in the pride and how she was valued by her peers – in the same way that I appreciated her troubles with her family. Her mother's attitude to the threat… wow, just wow. I could see why Grace turned out the way she did and worked so hard to prove herself. I wasn't always impressed by the way she handled things romantically – the Kelly situation unfolded in a predictable and slightly annoying style – but I could see why certain viewpoints got under her skin and made her confused, considering how hard she's trying to please all people all the time. However, I was impressed with her restraint.
And then along came Dominec. Haunted, dark, unstable, more than a little crazy – and I loved him. His time with the Organization shattered him and I liked how that manifested in his trouble with memory. Sure, he's a bit of a stalker at times and he's definitely not a team player, but I loved how nothing about him is a quick fix. He's a dangerous, vicious predator who has serious trust issues, has suffered severe trauma and lives for revenge. Yet he also appreciates Grace for exactly who she is and has a way with words that is completely unintentionally beautiful.
Their romance is unconventional at times, bordering on hurtful at others, full of confusion and misunderstandings, yet somehow builds an incredible team out of the pair of them. Despite all the darkness and doubt and outside stress, they make each other stronger and I loved reading about them.
Tangled up with the romance is the wider plot that's clearly been building throughout the series so far. The sinister Organization has been stealing shifters and doing terrible things to them for a while, but now Lone Pine are getting ready to fight back. Where Dominec is all for charging in and slaughtering the lot of them, no questions asked, Grace wants to take a more cautious approach – taking prisoners in the hope of gaining more information. These two viewpoints are repeated often throughout the book with other characters as Lone Pine builds towards a full-scale attack and attempts to contact other shifter packs and prides to join the fight.
It's dark and dangerous stuff at times, with a small amount of political maneouvering and plenty of building tension. The momentum grows steadily throughout in a good, consistent way that I couldn't see how things could possibly be resolved by the end of the book. As such I did feel that certain things became a little too convenient and a touch rushed, when perhaps they might have been better carried over into another book. Having said that, I can see why it wasn't since the whole attack itself was pivotal in Dominec's storyline. I just wish certain things hadn't popped up at the most convenient moment to make everything swifter than expected.
That little niggle aside, though, I really enjoyed this book. It's a strong shifter romance, and although there was a distinct lack of lioness moments there was plenty of tiger time to make up for it. I loved Dominec, really liked Grace and adored how their romance played out. If you're looking for a shifter series that blends great characters with stirring romance and an interesting wider plot, then you should give this a try. I know I'll be catching up on the earlier three books soon, and look forward to wherever this world goes next.
Tangling With The Tiger is out August 18th!

Grexit has been averted for now. Greece has accepted the terms of the EU and are harsher than the previous ones in the referendum of last week. The situation did backfire for them. After further consideration and outweighing consequences, both sides adapted their proposals and a deal was reached last Sunday. On Greece's side, the situation is grim, with massive reforms coming their way to restructure the country's finances and as always the poor and senior citizens will take the burden of the situation. Goods will cost more because of sales tax hikes, all underperforming public companies will be privatized, pensions will be lowered, and many other indicators will be adjusted to meet the terms of the bailout.
This is the third bailout in recent years. The EU and its main leader Germany, was not about to continue financing the good life of the Greeks. Since the introduction of the EU Commonwealth, the smaller economies-such as the Greek- took advantage of the riches that came their way with the creation of this economic block and did pretty much nothing to live within their means and just lived of the tourist industry-which is the main source of income alongside with some olive production- and not diversified to other productive activities. There is really no other big contributor for the economy and it is hurting them.
Germany and France which lead the block were fed up with the situation and particularly Germany said enough. The German Chancellor Angela Merkel is seen as the bad girl in the movie but she had a double obligation, to its people and to the EU. The German people that are extremely austere and that live very much within their means-recently in a survey most Germans said that if they've win the Lotto they would save the money compared to other nationalities were would go on a shopping spree, that is how austere they are- said, do not bail any more.
After further consideration from both sides and after Putin's expression that he would take care of the Greeks, an ultimatum was agreed for now. Putin was probably drooling like a wild beast before making a kill, because of what this opportunity represented for the Russian Federation to annex Greece, in addition of the recent annexation of Crimea by force. It would have been a midfield goal for him, but this was averted for now. Anything can happen really, Greece could receive more money and after not delivering the terms of this ultimatum they could turn to Russia in a couple of years, yet to be seen.
Greece probably also considered the immediate consequences of leaving the Eurozone, sure in the midterm they would've been able to somehow stabilize the situation, but in the short term it would've been chaos. Huge monetary depreciation- were money is worth less and less by the hour- rampant unemployment, suicides galore, bankruptcies, crime- you name it- and finally, if choosing the Russian option, becoming a 21st century colony of Russia.
The days of "La vida Facil" are over. It is not the Greeks peoples fault but of their leaders and public policies that have led them to this situation. This way of life has been going on for a while and people just went along for the ride and being good tourists hosts and having a good life in the Mediterranean. It is not Germany and France's fault either. The EU cannot afford this type of economies anymore. The world's economy cannot afford this type of monetary behaviors either, the easy days are over and volatility is immense now that all markets are interconnected.
* Athens is burning right now, looks like it is going to be a long and hard recovery.

Look What The Cat Dragged In – Tom Beard at Cob Gallery
'Look What the Cat Dragged In' is an intimate and sideways look at the work of photographer Tom Beard and what he has become known for in his so-far short but very successful career. Since the age of 17 he has been shooting portraits of celebrities in their glamourous guises, particularly including Florence and the Machine, Jamie T and Adele. In this – his first solo exhibition – he chooses to represent himself as a different kind of photographer. For in the place of Florence and the Machine we find 'Look What the Cat Dragged In 2'- a telling title image to this exhibition of his most favoured few taken over the last nine years.
It's an intriguing metaphor that the photographer has chosen to use. He poses as a sly predator awaiting his shot, the prey is his unassuming subjects and the viewer the surprised home-owner who asked for nothing, and receives what s/he does not desire. Beard marks his prey through his still gaze – his camera is a tool of possession, yet these are not the photographic prey most viewers hope to have captured for them. Beard is just a common cat, and his subject a pesky rat. These subject matters are sneaked into our view without our permission – they are unwanted, unexpected, in some cases unpleasant. In being such, Beard goes directly against the alluring images of his commercial career, and like a common cat, he willingly crawls along the floor in order to look his prey, intimately and almost as an equal, in the eye.
It's a powerful anecdote for the authenticity of the artist's work as a whole. It is a desire sought out not just in his subject matter but in his technique that is free from the superficiality of the digital and its capabilities to fool the eye through a breadth of editing methods. He airbrushes nothing, he does not crop out or add in a single thing. He doesn't increase or decrease the exposure. These images are as dreary and gritty as life is, or as uplifting and luminescent as Spring (see 'Love Lost'). How the artist finds it, the viewer sees it. It has an innocence of eye that is captivating. Naturally though, the work of the eye is never separated from the considerations and judgements of the mind and here the metaphor becomes a bit stretched when we think on the viewer as the house-proud cat owner.
The relationship of the viewer to the art is neither as one dimensional or disapproving as one may gather. For in the metaphor that Beard constructs, he makes the assumption that no-one wants a rat in their home – that is, no one wants to be faced with the traumas of contemporary life in Britain. But this just is not the case. The most beautiful photo in this exhibition is of that revolting rat. The second of a breathless goldfish deposited down a toilet. It's a poignant and ironic image of a ritual we have established. We give a goldfish a respectful resting place by releasing it to expanse of the ocean as though liberating it from its bodily remains and life spent in the confines of the tank. It seems like a pleasant death because its coffin is the clean white ceramic walls of the toilet. But its not kind, its clinical – impersonal and cold-hearted. And its certainly not clean or honourable, it's the place we deposit our personal waste – its like dogs eating the crumbs from underneath our table. This is to me the perfect picture of authenticity – it's an illuminating look at real life.

I don't post on here nearly as much as I should, but then again I don't post on my own blog as much as I should. I blame this on work and not wanting to do anything when I get home but listen to old Ricky Gervais XFM shows.
Luckily for you all Devina and Harry have been keeping the site alive, they're good people. 🙂
I'm going to be talking about television shows until I can think of anything better to write about and what better way to continue reviewing shows than by reviewing the recently finished Fringe. If you don't want any spoilers if you haven't watched the show and plan to then best you not read on.
J.J. Abrams impressed me when he created Lost which is most probably my all time favourite show so when he created Fringe I was looking…

Zante is the beach holiday island that dreams are made of. With a coastline roughly 123 kilometers in length, the island of Zante is trimmed with beautifully tranquil coves, broad white-sandy bays and resort beaches that stretch as far as the eye can see. Zante is known to locals as "Zakynthos" and only in English as "Zante".
Nicknamed centuries ago as "flower of the East" by the Venetians who once colonised it, Zante gets its Greek name from an ancient mythical character: Zacynthus, son of the legendary Arcadian chief Dardanus Third largest of the Ionian Islands and most Southerly, Zante has a thriving tourism industry which caters for everyone. Party seekers dance the night away in the bars and clubs on Zante's vibrant club scene; then recover by day on one of Zante's many quiet coves and beaches. 'Laganas', situated on the South coast is the biggest and liveliest resort on Zante, well renowned for its nightlife.
Laganas has possibly the best beach on the island, and this is where Zante's endangered loggerhead turtles nest. From here, it is easy to venture to the most photographed spot on Zante – the famous Smuggler's Cove. Parents with young families come to Zante to take advantage of the rather more quiet and family focused resorts on Zante, which provide entertainment for the kids and a well earned rest in the Zante sunshine for mum and dad. Argassi and Tsilivi are the contenders here.
For those with the curiosity to explore Zante's interior, Zante is an island of contrasts offering stunning scenery, white cliffs, sleepy olive groves and dusky mountains. The roads on Zante are driveable and there are car hire companies aplenty. Zante also has some amazing cave dives, with marine life rich in moray eels, monk seals, octopus, and loggerhead turtles (caretta caretta).
International air travelers to Zante arrive via Zakynthos International Airport. Olympic Airways flies 2-3 times daily to Zante from Athens – even in winter. Zante is also well served by ferries running from the Greek mainland; plus ferries sail regularly from Brindisi in Italy, direct to Zante's shores.Zante is a picturesque island with a village atmosphere. Holiday makers are as welcome in Zante's friendly tavernas and local shops, as they are in Zante's resort bars and shopping complexes. The natural beauty of the island and the variety of holidays available on Zante, combine to make it one of the top tourist destinations in Greece.

Special Correspondents, a new original feature film written and directed by Ricky Gervais and starring Eric Bana and Gervais will debut worldwide including Australia on Netflix next year.
With Special Correspondents, as with The Office & Extras, Gervais has written a hilarious, modern comedy in which Bana plays a struggling New York based radio journalist, whose arrogance and decadent lifestyle has hindered his career. With his job on the line he fakes front line war reports from the comfort of his hideout above a Spanish restaurant in the heart of Manhattan.
"Special Correspondents is classic Ricky Gervais; smart social satire with heart," said Netflix Chief Content Officer Ted Sarandos. "It's the kind of great grown-up comedy that studios rarely make anymore, one that's perfect for Netflix members around the world."
Gervais said' "Having shaken up the TV industry, Netflix is about to do the same to Hollywood. It's great to be part of the changing future. Ted Sarandos is the new Godfather of entertainment and he made me an offer I couldn't refuse."
The film is a co-production between Bron Studios and Unanimous Entertainment.

Where The Locals Play: Family Fun
Warmer weather is just around the corner for us here in Louisville, KY. That means we can shed our winter coats, head into the great outdoors, and enjoy all the local nature, arts, and attractions of Greater Louisville. With so many options, we've picked our top 10 places to visit with the whole family. Let's explore!
Where better to start your Louisville exploration than at our own zoo? Featuring over 1,500 animals on 134 acres, this is a day trip worth making. Whether you're into butterflies, monkeys, amphibians, or endangered species, The Louisville Zoo lets you get up close and personal with animals from all over the globe.
It goes without saying that no trip to Louisville is complete without a trip to the iconic Slugger Museum. This year the LSM is featuring a Lego exhibit - baseball art built with Lego bricks! Of course, the factory tour, signature wall, batting cages, and other museum exhibits will be waiting for you too. You'll know you're close when you see Babe Ruth's 120 foot exact-scale bat replica leaning gently against the building.
If your family can't make up their minds, there's sure to be something for everyone at Louisville Mega Cavern. Featuring the world's only fully underground zipline, ropes course, and underground bike park, this is an outdoor lover's dream! If you're more the watch-and-learn type, LMC offers underground tram tours so you can take in the incredible depths of the underground caves!
Fancy a guided tour through Louisville via Segway? Look no further than Wheel Fun Rental's Segway Tours. Explore historic downtown Louisville behind the handlebars of these fun, two-wheeled, self-balancing machines. Or try the Riverfront Tour and explore around Waterfront Park. Never ridden a Segway? Don't worry, they'll train you before you go!
Huber's Orchard, Winery & Vineyards
Louisville and its surrounding areas are full of picturesque wineries. Huber's is just 30 minutes from downtown Louisville and offers something for every age, taste, and palate. Beginning in 1843, this now 7th generation vineyard offers far more than just wine. The property houses a farm and market, a full distillery, cafe, ice cream factory, and cheese shop. There's even a petting zoo! Make a day trip out of it and come visit Huber's Orchard, Winery, & Vineyards.
If you'd rather be pedaling, Wheel Fun Rentals also offers a variety of personal and group vehicle rentals at Waterfront Park. Rent a tandem bike, a chopper, or a four person double surrey and head out into 85 acres of Louisville playground, all while taking in views of the Ohio River. Kids want their own bike? Wheel Fun has you covered - kids bikes are available too!
Over 1.5 million people walk the Big Four Bridge yearly, so you know there's something to it. There's no better way to take in views of Louisville and neighboring Jeffersonville than from the Big Four. While you're walking across it, you might even see our next attraction…
Why not embark on a river cruise around the beautiful Ohio River? The Belle of Louisville is a 1914, Pittsburgh-built steamboat with plenty of room aboard for your whole group. It's also a living piece of history, having sailed the nation's waterways for over 100 years. Join for brunch, a dinner cruise, musical event, or just to sightsee. Whatever your reason, it will be an occasion.
Kentucky Kingdom & Hurricane Bay
If the weather gets nice, to Kentucky Kingdom & Hurricane Bay we go. Conveniently located just minutes from downtown, this amusement and waterpark is one the kids will want to visit multiple times during your Louisville stay. With tons of rides on water and land, plus shows and an area just for younger children, there's something here for everyone!
At the Kentucky Science Center, adults can enjoy the exhibits every bit as much as their kids. This interactive, hands-on museum lets you explore the depths of the universe, learn how the world works, and see science come to life. The KSC also features the state's only four-story, 3D theater! Book your family passes for this science adventure in the heart of Louisville!

Braid has really excited the games press and although I have seen very little I have to agree it does look cool. Imagine a cross between Donkey Kong on the NES and Prince Of Persia: Sands Of Time. Yeah, it's hard to imagine but check out the video above and see what you think.
Earlier this week Jonothan Blow developer of the XBLA title has nor ruled out a PS3 version, which could come at a later date after Microsofts exclusivity deal expires.
It would be nice, I think it'd be more suited to the PSN as it has more of an audience for quirky titles like Braid. It has been well recieved by the preess but I don't think that the 360 audience has taken to it too well and the $15 price point might be putting many people not used to spending 1200 spacebucks on a game.

NORDIC pays a tribute to Danish Design traditions that continue to set new international standards. NORDIC presents two bright and modern looks that all match and give an extra dimension to Danish interior trends. The NORDIC line reflects and invites the natural light inside while it, at the same time, adds a warm soft look to the light living areas.
Warm and cool in perfect oneness – adding depth, warmth and natural authenticity to the cool Nordic look.
We source Natural Oak from the largest and finest trees in the Nordic forests. The oak tree allows for production of planks with a natural high quality and authentic natural look. Oak truly brings nature inside and brings about a sense of living in oneness with the world outside.
The king of the Nordic forests also has a little extra to offer. The oak tree is often many 100 years old when we cut it. The exterior part of the tree is thus bigger and broader, which gives us the possibility to prepare wide planks that are extra fine with a remarkable scarcity of knots and a very calm structure. This gives the wood an extraordinary stylish and luxurious minimalistic look.
T: 22/30 mm , W: 200/250/300 mm, L: 1,00-5,00 mtr
Other dimensions and extra long lengths available upon request
Northern Europe
A modern silver look – with a classic twist inspired by the patinated or sand-washed look seen in aged furniture classics by the popular Danish designers like Børge Mogensen, Hans Wegner etc.
The look is classic and modern at the same time. This combination supports the growing trend in Scandinavian interior decoration of coupling new and old pieces of furniture, and new and old looks alltogether.
T: 22/30 mm , W: 200/250/300 mm, L: 1,00-5,00 mtr

Northern Europe
For optimal aesthetic appearance Fredsted Floors must be installed with the highest expertise and precision. The carefully selected planks with a natural high quality and authentic natural look must be matched by the same level of appreciation and craftsmanship during installation. If you have any questions concerning installation our technical support will guide you through the process.
In order to combine the aesthetic appearance of Fredsted Floors with comfortable indoor climate it is possible to install a underfloor heating system. Fredsted Floors are compatible with all standard heating systems designed for wooden floors. If you have any questions concerning underfloor heating our technical support will guide you through the process.
In order to bring out the beauty of Fredsted Floors we have chosen a selection of surface treatments to underline the authentic natural look and tactile feel. The treatments cover a lifespan of your wooden floor and exquisitely combines ease of use with amazing looks and superior long lasting results. If you have any questions concerning surface treatments and the finish of your Fredsted Floor our technical support will guide you through the process.

As part of Project 1 Setting the Scene for the final section of Context and Narrative, I have elected to make short notes for my review on the photographers mentioned in this section. The first one we are directed to look at is Jeff Wall.
- Tableau photographer
- Uses large format cameras
- Method of photography is known as "cinematography"
- Displays images in huge lightboxes
- Works in collaboration with assistants and a cast
- Sets can take a long time to build (mise-en-scène)
- Photographs moments he has seen, remembers and recreates at a later time. This is crucial to his artistic freedom
- Researches the props and tries to get the same vintage/period elements to use in the photos
- Influenced by literature, specifically nineteenth-century French author Baudelaire, philosophy and paintings
- Creates an image that questions what happened before the 'moment' and what could happen after it
- Refers to his photographs as:
'prose poems',a description that emphasises how each picture should be experienced rather than used to illustrate a pre-determined idea or a specific narrative'. The prose poem format allows any truth claims of the photograph – the facts we expect from journalistic photography – to remain suspended, and Wall believes that in that suspension the viewer experiences pleasure.

Leave it alone for a week and you'll have the legitimate beginnings of a beard. To achieve the appropriate tough guy look, you'd have to use an electric razor every few days to shave away everything but the stubble.
