Alexis Crystal exclusive Interview for Wow Girls
A brown eyed, brown haired beauty, she stands at just 5'6 tall. She's slim and weighs only 114 lbs. She's 22 years old and has been in the business for four years. Her hair is incredibly long and she's very beautiful. She has a beautiful pair of 32As and is absolutely delightful to interview. This young and in 1993 born pornstar shows her skills at sites like Reality Kings, 21 Sextury, Nubile Films, and 21 Naturals. Now we have her on board at the famous Wow Girls Website! Shes a long haired stunner born in the Czech Republic is 5 feet 5 inches tall, wearing a natural 34 A natural breast cup. She used a lot of akas in her 5 years career like Dominika, Domi, Liz, Sindy, Anouk, Anouk I. Alexis is from the Czech Republic and has one of the sweetest and sexiest accents that I've heard.
So I've noticed that you do a lot of work with multiple partners in the scenes that you do. Is there a reason why?
AC: I really like working with guys and girls. It's such a nice mix. There's such a variety when you're not the only two on set. It's a lot of fun figuring out how you're all going to interact. I think it's more challenging than working alone or doing one on one. It's a lot more fun too!
Is there anything particular you like about having sex with girls?
AC: I like that they also have boobs. I really like my boobs and I love to play with them. So when I'm with a girl, it's double the fun. Both of us have boobs. It's the same with the vagina. I have one and she has one. It's easy to know what to do with a girl. You just do what you want done to you and usually she loves it. It's also easy to tell when a girl is into. Guys aren't as good at reading people as girls are. Girls know when you don't like something. With guys, a lot of the time you have to tell them if you don't like what they're doing. So that mean that it's often easier to have amazing sex with, since they don't have to be told what to do.
How do you like working with girls?
AC: Oh I love it. It's really fun. The girls that I work with are all so nice. It's really great because you can have sex but you can also talk about girly things. Like shoes and make up. It's like having a lot of best friends that you also have sex with. It's the best thing about this. That's why I love working in porn so much. Everyone is so open and friendly. I think it's the best job to work at if you really love sex.
Do you like anal sex?
AC: I do!
That's surprising! I've never seen you do anal on screen before.
AC: That's because the guys are so big and rough. Plus you have to clean yourself out all the way and sometimes you can't eat. I don't like being hungry or waiting that long. A lot of work goes into making the perfect anal scene in porn and that's just not something that I can do. Not when there's other easier ways of doing things.
Tell me about your first time doing anal
AC: Well it happened at home, like all my anal sex does, he was going down on mean and just put a finger in my ass. It felt so good. It was amazing. I loved the feeling. He wasn't doing anything special, no hard thrusting. He was just really gentle and nice. It made everything more intense and led to an amazing orgasm in just three minutes. I came so hard. Then, since I was already prepared, he put his cock in me and we had anal sex together. It was so amazing. It really gives you a feeling of fullness. It's so different than vaginal sex and I really love it.
I've seen you use a Hitachi magic wand in a lot of your videos, is that something you do at home?
AC: Yes! It's one of my favorite things. There's so many different attachments that you can buy for it. It's used a lot in those videos because it guarantees that the girl is going to get off. It's my favorite thing to have used on me. I love it. The vibrations are so strong.
Do you masturbate a lot?
AC: I've done it for some videos, yes. Those ones are kind of boring to make. But they're easy to do and I can do a lot of them before I get too tired.
I meant at home, but that's good to know!
AC: Oh! Yes, of course, who doesn't? I love using the magic wand at home. I don't use the highest setting though. When I'm at home, it's all about me. It's nice to have sex or masturbate without the lights on you and the director telling you what to do. Honestly some people think that having sex on camera would make it boring. But it's completely different. It's a lot like a job to me. But sex at home is so different. It's such a relief to finally be able to do exactly what I want to do.
And what's that?
AC: Not stop! Seriously, there's a lot of times when I've been very close to coming and they've had to stop and change the focus and have us change the angle. It's actually very frustrating. It happens a lot. People think that it's just fucking in front of people but it's a lot like acting. There's a lot of unglamorous stuff that happens.
I definitely learned a lot about this Czech beauty during the interview and I hope you did too. Alexis has been doing porn for a while and it appears that she's here to stay. I think everyone is pretty happy about that. She's definitely got to be the focus of a lot of fantasies out there, with her big brown eyes and her beautiful. She's fun to talk with as well. Alexis is charming and very open about what she does and what she likes. I cannot wait to see what she'll star in next.

VERONIQUE Kuit, Miss Ribbons for Roses supreme queen, recently walked away as the overall senior winner during the King and Queen of Alberton pageant on September 23.
She was also crowned best ramp model, best photogenic model and the best-dressed model. Veronique is a local model who goes to Alberton High School and the RECORD did a few articles about her in the past.
This competition was held by Luzanne Heunis (RVT teacher) and Charne Heunis (RVT assistant teacher).
There were about 50 entries.
"I had a serious operation and I have been out of pageantry for just over a year. I wasn't allowed to get back into heels for quite a while. This was my very first competition since then and it turned out very well," she said.
Veronique also wants to thank Luzanne for a well-organised competition.

A couple of weeks ago I spent 4 nights at my parents while my hubby was away. I knew those few days would be challenging because in the end I would be the only go to parent for the boys. I love my boys to pieces but it's always nice knowing you having daddy around to help out and give mom a break..
Although I was the only parent for those few days I had help on random days from my parents, my sis-in law, her girls and my own sister. I had one day where I just broke down from the stress of the day and from the way my boys were behaving. It kind of reminded me of those overwhelming feelings I went through as a new mom of newborn twins. You ever get those days of feeling overwhelmed?
My sis in law was great and encouraged me with her words and gave me great advice. She even went out that day and bought me some flowers, card, candy and some cute pink earplugs….yes earplugs!
I think some days especially as stay at home mom I fail to remember the significance of the role I have in the lives of my kids. There are many mundane things we do and have to deal with. Yes, many of my days I'm cleaning up the same toys several times a days and I'm cleaning up crumbs, cheerios and other things off the floor. I realize that I just need to remember that whatever I'm doing as a mom it all matters to God. He sees what I do and values that- He values me!
Each new day I am investing in the lives of these kids, and my role as mom has significance even in the tiniest of details matters.
The cool thing is my brother sent me this YouTube video of my favorite christian artist Steven Curtis Chapman to encourage me and remind me of this truth. This song is called "Do Everything" I hope you enjoy it:

Aditi Rao Hydari is an Indian film actress. She is most famous for her work in movies including "Sringaram: Dance of Love," "London Paris New York" and "Murder 3." She is also an accomplished Bharatanatyam dancer.
Aditi Rao Hydari was born on October 28, 1978 in Hyderabad, Andhra Pradesh, India. The descendent of two royal bloodlines, the Muhammad Saleh Akbar Hydari and J. Rameshwar Rao of erstwhile Raja of Wanaparthy families, the world was literally her oyster from birth. The fact that she ultimately chose to be both a dancer and and actress shows just how passionate she is about both crafts. In fact, she began practicing classical Bharatanatyam dancing at only six years old.
Schooled at Rishi Valley School near Bangalore before going on to graduate from Lady Shri Ram College, University of Delhi, Aditi was eventually taken under the tutelage of acclaimed dancer Leela Samson. With her help, she developed her skills to such a degree that it landed her her first film role in "Sringaram: Dance of Love." Director Sharada Ramanathan approached her for the dual roles she wound up playing after observed her dancing at a conference for three days.

From here, things only continued to progress for Aditi's film career. Sure, not every film she wound up taking on was a commercial success, but even ones like "London Paris New York" which was by no means considered her best performance, she was able to sing two songs on the film's soundtrack and expand her horizons all the more. Besides, other movies she has starred in such as the erotic thriller "Murder 3" in 2013 received rave reviews and even touted the lovely young actress as a show stopper. And rightfully so. Since around the same time, her level of fame has gone through the roof, with her booking four films in 2015 alone including the dramedy "Guddu Rangeela" and crime film "Wazir."

Courtney Ford is an actress probably best known for her roles on "Dexter" and "True Blood." Most recently, she joined the cast of "Revenge" as an FBI agent assigned to investigate a murder.
Courtney Ford was born and raised in Los Angeles. She is Latin and proud of her Hispanic roots. "On my mother's side, my grandparents were born in New Mexico and their parents were born in New Mexico and their parents were born in New Mexico…so their parents were born in New Mexico before New Mexico was even part of the United States. Isn't that crazy?"
Related: The 30 Hottest Women From California.
She's also the stepsister of hyper-successful writer Roberto Orci.
Courtney Ford almost gave up acting a few years ago. "If I let myself get discouraged about anything, I would have stopped a long time ago. I almost did, actually…I almost stopped right before 'Dexter.' I went in and did it and I didn't think I was going to get it at all, but I ended up getting the role…that changed the trajectory of my career and it changed my plans," (colldier.com).
Her other roles include parts on "How I Met Your Mother," "Cold Case" and "Ugly Betty."
As for her nude scenes, Courtney Ford said, "Both on 'Dexter' and 'True Blood', people are getting killed and there's blood everywhere, but then if you think, 'Oh no, I see boobies! How dare you?' something is wrong there. How can you be okay with murder but not be okay with the natural state of the human body?"
She said of future roles she'd like to have: "I would love to be on a show where I'm allowed to play a character that you're not suspicious of, from the get-go, and who's someone that you can just relax with, take in and like, right off the bat."
She is married to actor Brandon Routh. They met at Hollywood's Lucky Strike, a bowling alley where he worked part time. They were married in 2007 at El Capitan Ranch in Santa Barbara.
Courtney Ford is also a hot MILF as she gave birth to a son in August 2012. She and her family reside in Los Angeles, California.

When John Piccoli was a young boy, polio left him in a wheelchair for the rest of his life. Determined not to let that stop him, the Australian artist took up perhaps the most active art form: large-scale metalworking sculpture.
He starts with a pile of old wrenches. To most people this looks like junk.
But, it's not junk to John Piccoli.
Once he works them into his art, these wrenches become something beautiful.
You can see the wrenches in this bench, but it has become so much more.
Check out the incredible curves at the head and base of this bench.
30 years ago, John also started making garden sculptures from the wrenches.
The rust and wear of the wrenches are just part of their charm.
Look at how detailed this is!
He makes fountains as well.
John's work is moving from the garden to museums and galleries.
This huge fish looks high above the trees.
Maybe he's steering clear of this fisherman and his net.
This cowboy is guarding over the yard space.
This horse and cart brings a vintage charm to the yard.
A close-up gives it an industrious presence.
The strength of the metal is put to use in this sculpture of two horses.
And, brings a feminine strength to this mermaid.
There's a poise and grace to this family of deer.
Love seat on wheels!

The end of an era is coming for 1st Mariner Bank — early next year Baltimore's largest community bank will move out of its office in the 17-story Canton tower, which was built by the bank's founder, Edwin F. Hale Sr., and bore its name for nearly a decade.
The move is symbolic as the bank looks to leave its troubled past behind and reassert itself in Baltimore's banking community under new ownership.
Unable to recover from soured mortgage loans after the housing bubble burst, 1st Mariner's parent company filed for bankruptcy protection in 2014. A group of investors bought the bank in an auction later that year and recapitalized it with $110 million.

ALBANY With Chenango County running out of time to preserve a rail line that stretches between Binghamton and Utica and transform it into an engine fueling regional tourism and economic development, today, U.S. Senator Charles E. Schumer called on the rails current owner to give the county more time to formulate and submit a bid to acquire ownership. New York Susquehanna & Western Railway (NYS&W), has already taken the first step towards abandoning the line by initiated the process with the United States Department of Transportation's Surface Transportation Board. Without intervention, this plan will eventually terminate the rail line as a functional route and leave county leaders without the necessary time to submit their own plan to maintain the rails functionality as an alternative to the congestion-plagued Route 12.
Senator Schumer has personally called on the rail lines owner to delay submitting its application for termination for up to a year. This delay will give the county the necessary time to assess and create a business plan to obtain the property and possibly the rail line.

DEVELOPMENT OF A HEAVY LIFT AND TRANSPORT SYSTEM FOR THE INSTALLATION OF OFFSHORE PRODUCTION PLATFORMSProject ID: TH./07056/85
Finanziato nell'ambito di:
Dettagli del progetto
Costo totale:EUR 385 398
Contributo UE:EUR 115 619
Coordinato in:Germany
Argomento (i):1.1 - AUXILIARY SHIPS AND SUBMERSIBLES
Meccanismo di finanziamento:DEM - Demonstration contracts
Installation technique of the topsides of offshore production platforms is by crane lifting of reasonably sized modules. Considerable cost and time savings particularly with earlier production would be achieved if the inshore proven mating technique of platform deck and substructure could be transferred to at sea application. The present project is a feasibility study of a specialized transport and lifting barge design for worldwide operation combining semisubmersible motion characteristics and simple dock type lifting capability. Integrated decks would be picked up by the barge at the fabyard, transported to the site, lifted by deballasting and lowered gently to the preinstalled jacket.
Review of installation modes shows superiority of integrated type. A vessel for one piece installation of topsides will, however, envisage strong competition by established heavy lift crane barges. Therefore, the barge must be also available for platform removal. The vessel will have U-shape in plan view with legs similar to the floaters and columns of a semisubmersible. Open at one side, they are cross-connected by two box shaped bars at the other side, one below and one above water to achieve good torsional resistance. With the deck spanned across the legs, conventionally shaped jackets will be forked in for mating.
Environmental forces acting on deck and U-barge will load the jacket after the first contact is established. Jacket has to be designed accordingly. Dimensions of U-barge were chosen to serve jackets of a 60 m width at upper end, carrying a topsides weight of 30,000 t. Length and beam of the U-barge are 140 m and 120 m, the depth is 28 m. Best method of fabrication isin a large drydock, but there is a slight though more expensive chance for conventional shipyards to fabricate the barge in parts and assemble these in floating condition. Assuming a three day period necessary for transit from shore to location, positioning of anchors, and mating, it was found from weather statistics (North Sea, 66 deg. N, 2 deg. E) that such periods with significant wave heights of up to 1.9 m occur with a frequency of as much as 1.6 in January/February and 5.9 in May/June. Motion characteristics of the barge as found from calculations and model tests in such that mating is possible in seaways of up to 2 m significant wave height provided the prevailing wave periods do not surpass 7 s, maximum 9 s.
Model tests also showed that the barge safely survives the 100 year storm in the North Sea in unloaded condition. The square arrangement and size of the columns warrant sufficient intact stability about arbitrary horizontal axes. Damage stability is provided by suitability selected compartmentation and buoyancy boxes at the four corners of the deck structure of legs and upper crossbar.
Quasistatic strength analysis showed that the clamping connections of the legs at the cross bars would be slightly overloaded with plate thickness of 20 to 30 mm, and plate thickness of 20 to 25 mm would be sufficient for the cross bars and all other members of the barge, larger values for the underwater portions. Comparison of equivalent stresses in the clamping connections determined by the quasistatic analysis and by model tests in loaded and unloaded condition show up to 70 % higher stresses measured in the model tests which correctly reflected sheer stress influences. Apart from a slight increase in above plate thickness the critical points of the barge should be coped with by local reinforcements and application of higher tensile strength steel.
Though the tolerable sea state in transit, loaded with a platform deck, must be limited for safety reasons.
In a comparative study the requirements and merits of modularized and integrated deck installations are summarized. Various proposals for offshore mating devices are analyzed especially with respect to application in North Sea environment. The chances of a new mating device are discussed competing in the market with well established operators of heavy lift crane vessels. The size of the barge and its form are determined by an analysis of form and size of existing jackets and the weight of the topsides they carry. Operational aspects of load-out, transit amd mating procedure are looked into. By weather statistic of a relevant North Sea area the probability of encountering sufficiently long good weather periods for transport and mating is evaluated. Among the studies of the technical feasibility of the barge is a discussion of its fabrication on a conventional shipyard. The most critical load cases are defined which determine the detail design of form and structure. Ballast handlingduring the different loading conditions are considered and the compartmentation designed appropriately. Hydrostatic stability is checked and damage stability investigated. Motion behaviour in the decisive loading conditions is calculated by using potential theory. Model tests are performed to doublecheck motion characteristics and study the limiting conditions of the sea state for initiation of the mating procedure. Structural design is controlled by longitudinal strength calculations and stress analysis using finite element method applied to a beam model of barge and platform deck structure in the design wave. Internal forces and moments are also measured in model tests in regular and irregular waves. Comparison is made with forces obtained from the quasi-steady loaded beam model.

RanSim is Free and Helps Businesses of All Sizes Check Effectiveness of Network Security Against Ransomware
TAMPA BAY, FL--(Marketwired - October 19, 2016) - Ransomware infections continue to skyrocket and social engineering tactics are helping cybercriminals get past network security software all too often. To help organizations better protect against the most successful cybercrime business model ever, KnowBe4, provider of the most popular platform for security awareness training and simulated phishing attacks, today launched RanSim, the industry's first ransomware simulator. RanSim is free for any organization that wants to test the effectiveness of its network security, gain a better understanding of how vulnerable its users are to attacks, and take steps to improve its ransomware defenses.
Ransomware is on track to net organized cybercrime more than $1 billion in 2016, not taking downtime and other costs associated with it into account. Most endpoint protection is, at best, moderately effective in blocking variants, and many antivirus products do not catch anything. The FBI issued a PSA on September 16, 2016 urging ransomware victims to report infections to help them gain a comprehensive view of the current threat. Ninety-three percent of IT professionals surveyed in KnowBe4's 2016 Ransomware Report are worried ransomware will continue to grow. Organizations need to have insight into how well-protected they are from ransomware.
Useful for both small- and mid-sized businesses and large organizations, RanSim enables IT pros to quickly assess if their endpoint protection software is effective, and, if not, put in place supplemental protection like security awareness training.
RanSim, a harmless simulation of a real ransomware infection, includes:
"We created RanSim as a simple way for IT professionals to test their organization's level of vulnerability as cybercriminals are constantly coming out with new strains and versions of ransomware," said Stu Sjouwerman, chief executive officer, KnowBe4. "Ransomware attacks do not discriminate - small- and medium-sized businesses and large enterprises are all at risk and need to do what they can to protect themselves. We are distributing RanSim free of charge to help IT managers identify weaknesses in their networks, put stronger defense-in-depth strategies in place and stop the spread of ransomware."
RanSim is available today. More information is available at: https://www.knowbe4.com/ransomware-simulator
About KnowBe4
KnowBe4, the provider of the world's most popular integrated new school security awareness training and simulated phishing platform, is used by more than 6,000 organizations worldwide. Founded by data and IT security expert Stu Sjouwerman, KnowBe4 helps organizations address the human element of security by raising awareness of ransomware, CEO Fraud and other social engineering tactics through a new school approach to security awareness training. Kevin Mitnick, internationally recognized computer security expert and KnowBe4's Chief Hacking Officer, helped design KnowBe4's trainings based on his well-documented social engineering tactics. Thousands of organizations trust KnowBe4 to mobilize their end-users as a first line of corporate IT defense.
Number 139 on the 2016 Inc 500 list, KnowBe4 is based in Tampa Bay, Florida. For more information, visit www.knowbe4.com and follow Stu on Twitter at @StuAllard.

The custom of serving a slice of lemon with fish originally had nothing to do with taste. It dates to the Middle Ages, when it was believed that if a fishbone was swallowed, the juice from the lemon would dissolve it.On that post, not only did I discuss Mr. White but also the many health benefits of lemons and lemon juice. The post hasn't been updated since 2007, so I'll leave the link for it down below if you want to check it out. You just might, because, there is also a recipe for Lemon Cake Top Pudding that is simply divine:) The unusual recipe will produce a "magical" cake top with a layer of custard below. I was actually going to bake it for today's post but...I got a bit side tracked:) If you just want to see the done recipe, pop on over to Jady's blog. She actually baked it and loved it! (Unfortunately, Jady is no longer posting on her blogs)
Candy Cane sweetness? Why of course!
They are so simple to make too. I even found an adult Peppermint Lemon Stick Cocktail recipe, should you be so inclined:)
The candy canes I used for today's Lemon Peppermint Sticks were bought at the local grocery store. They are called Bob's Old Fashioned Peppermint Sticks. When I flipped the box over, I spied The Tradition of the Candy Cane which I scanned above. Next, you just scrub the lemons with warm water. A quick roll is good too to loosen up that tangy juice:) I cut off the top of the lemon and made small slits at the top in the form of the letter X. Just enough to be able to stick the cane cane in the lemon. I snapped off the top and bottom of the candy canes because they were candied solid. After you do that, just give it a firm push and you're on your way to a Candy Cane Lemonade! It make take a while for your "sweet straw" to absorb the lemony goodness but be patient, the peppermint stick will begin to dissolve in the lemon juice and flow sweet, spicy lemony goodness:)

(CBS News) -- The White House is rolling out a new project to overhaul the rules for paying overtime - changes that will affect millions of households.
The change won't happen immediately, but on Thursday, President Obama will order the Labor Department to require businesses to pay more in overtime wages to certain kinds of workers—workers currently classified as executive or managerial employees. In some cases, CBS News' Major Garrett reported, these managers or executives could be shift supervisors at a fast food restaurant, or an overnight manager at a convenience store—clearly not ones who earn traditional white-collar wages.
"Due to years of neglect, one of the linchpins of the middle class, the overtime rules that establish the 40-hour workweek, have been eroded," a White House official said. "As a result, millions of salaried workers have been left without the protections of overtime or sometimes even the minimum wage. ... It's even possible that some of these workers make less than the minimum wage per hour."
The Labor Department sets the requirements for overtime pay to these so-called executive or managerial workers. Right now, if you make $455 per week—or roughly $24,000 a year—you don't have to receive overtime pay over that threshold.
According to a White House official: "In 1975, the Department of Labor set the salary threshold below which all white collar workers are covered by overtime protection at $250 per week (the equivalent of $970 in today's dollars). In 2004, the Bush Administration raised that threshold to where it is today, to $455 per week (the equivalent of $553 in today's dollars), a level that has eroded even further because of inflation. Some employers classify workers as 'white collar' workers, even though the overwhelming majority of their duties are not white collar exempting from these protections."
The president intends to use an executive order the Labor Department to raise that threshold—a regulatory process that could take many months to finalize.
The White House will not say how much the president wants to raise that threshold. California recently set its threshold at $640 a week and New York $600 a week. Former White House economists have publicly lobbied Mr. Obama to raise the threshold to nearly $1,000 a week.
All this is designed to combat what the White House calls income inequality across the country. The move, Garrett added, would give Democrats in the mid-term elections another economic bread basket issue to run on.

Whoa, Nelly: Here Is Danny Stripping on The Mindy Project Season Premiere
Helloooo, Diamond Dan.
After a long summer hiatus, The Mindy Project finally returned Tuesday night. Thankfully, viewers were rewarded for their months of patience: Danny and Mindy are still a happy couple, and their coupledom involves many wonderful things, such as getting to watch Danny — or, should we say, "Diamond Dan" (!) — perform an epic, hip-swiveling, pelvic-thrusting, let-me-just-fix-my-glasses striptease to the soundtrack of Lenny Kravitz's "American Woman." Monogamy has never looked so good.

Exhibitions: Permanent Exhibition
The Robert Caldwell Collection
The Nantucket Shipwreck & Lifesaving Museum's permanent collection is due largely to the vision of Robert Caldwell, who returned home to Nantucket after serving on board the United States Coast Guard Cutter Spencer during World War II. Deeply affected by his personal experience and intrigued by stories of the Coast Guard and its roots, Caldwell began collecting objects related to Nantucket's history of shipwrecks, life-saving and rescues. In 1967, he donated his collection and a piece of his property for what was to become the Nantucket Shipwreck & Lifesaving Museum.
The Robert Caldwell Collection presented in the Nantucket Shipwreck & Lifesaving Museum today is dedicated to the memory of James F. Davis Jr., a friend and fellow Coastguardsman, who perished when his ship, the United States Coast Guard Cutter Escanaba, was sunk while performing convoy escort duty in the Davis Strait during World War II.

Depression is a common mood disorder affecting one in five people in Scotland at some point in their lives. Many people who experience depression will not seek help. This is largely because they mistakenly believe that depression is a sign of weakness, or an inability to cope, rather than realising that depression can be treated.Whilst depression will affect everyone differently, typical signs of depression can include:
The majority of people experiencing depression will recover with the right interventions. The most important step for people with depression is to reach out for help and support. With the right treatment and support, most depressed people make a full recovery. Action on Depression website [external site] This Scottish charity offers information for the public about the treatment of depression and details of the support available. NHS Choices [external site] The NHS Choices website offers a description of the warning signs of depression, an online test, and help for sufferers of the illness.
Recent figures suggest that as many as 500,000 people in Scotland may currently be experiencing symptoms of depression. Depression is one of the most common reasons for people consulting their GP in Scotland. Often people experiencing depression also experience feelings of anxiety as well. The Information and Services division of the NHS revealed that one in ten adults are now taking anti-depressant medication every day to combat depression. Since 1999-09 the number of drugs being prescribed by GPs in Scotland has increased from 2.5 million to 4 million items. Concerns have been expressed by politicians and health experts given the challenges of the current economic climate. These concerns are supported by the Scottish Association for Mental Health whose recent study showed that people affected by the credit crunch are eight times more likely to suffer depression than before. The exact cause of depression is not known and is thought to be a mix of contributing factors. For some people it can occur for no apparent reason; others can pinpoint a trigger such as a difficult life event, a bad time in their past or some sort of trauma. It appears that in some families there can be a genetic element. Whatever the cause, it is important to remember that depression is as recognisable an illness as cancer or diabetes. Stigma still exists as an additional barrier to people seeking help, but the earlier people access support the sooner they can regain control and move on with their lives. No individual is predestined to develop clinical depression, but it is true to say that some people may be more vulnerable to it than others. It is important to be aware of our own personal risk factors so that those of us who may be vulnerable can educate ourselves, be attentive to warning signs and take steps towards recognising and preventing recurrent episodes. Longer term stress is known to be a major factor in the causes of depression. Taking action to reduce and control stress in our lives will reduce this risk considerably. Specific issues: Postnatal depression With respect to the prevalence of depression during the transition to and following motherhood, parents and health carers need to be alert for signs of depression, and to ensure that mothers and their babies receive the full care and support they need. More information about postnatal depression is available on: NHS Choices [external site] This website offers information about depression during pregnancy Action on Depression [external site] More information about post natal depression can be found on this website, along with links to organisations that can help. SAD Seasonal Affective Disorder, or SAD, is a form of depression which develops in the autumn and improves in the spring. It is thought to be caused by lack of natural light in winter. For information around seasonal affective disorder, visit the SADA.
Actions which can contribute to reducing the incidence and prevalence of depression and anxiety include reducing factors known as 'risk factors'and increasing factors known as 'protective factors'. Risk factors can include a history of depression, physical illness, prolonged stress, social isolation, unemployment, financial problems, excessive use of drugs and or alcohol, and significant loss or trauma.Protective factors can include having supportive relationships, being connected to the local community, being emotionally resilient and having good physical health.Breathing Space Scotland [external site] This website offers detailed information about the risk factors associated with depression.Action on Depression mood menu [external site] The mood menu on the Action on Depression website suggests a range of activities which can increase protective factors.
Depression is mostly treated in primary care. This means that GPs are generally tasked with sourcing the most appropriate treatment for the person and their on-going care.Depression can be treated using a variety of interventions and treatment options. These may include a combination of antidepressant medication and or psychological therapies such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), guided self-help, and advice on changes you can make to your lifestyle that will help you, such as changes to diet and levels of physical exercise. The type of treatment or combination of treatments that suits the individual will depend on personal preferences, general patient health and on how severe the depression is.NICE has identified a model of good depression care, in consultation with clinicians and patients based on a combination of medication, talking therapies and self-help.For some patients, particularly those with more severe depression or where treatment is not successful, more specialised care, including inpatient care, may be needed. NICE guidelines include:
Physical exercise The recent UK Department of Health publication 'At least five a week: evidence on the impact of physical activity and its relationship to health' states: 'People who lead an active lifestyle over several years have a reduced risk of suffering symptoms of clinical depression. Physical activity is effective as a treatment of mild, moderate and severe clinical depression. It may also help people with other mental illnesses'. DoH, At least five a week: evidence on the impact of physical activity and its relationship to health', 2004 [PDF 1.9MB] Antidepressants There is no shortage of evidence showing that antidepressants are effective in treating depression. Different studies quote different figures, but broadly speaking around 60 per cent of people with depression will improve when taking an antidepressant. Interestingly, around half these people would improve if they were unknowingly prescribed a dummy pill or placebo and this is higher than if they had received nothing at all. The placebo effect occurs with many other types of medicines including painkillers. Placebo medicines can only be prescribed to people who have consented to a medical trial and so are not used in daily practice. Action on Depression [external site] offers information about common antidepressants, potential side effects and other frequently asked questions. Psychological therapies The National Institute of Clinical Excellence (NICE) has identified a model of good depression care, in consultation with clinicians and patients. It is based on a combination of medication, talking therapies and self-help. There is a significant amount of evidence demonstrating the effectiveness of CBT and other psychotherapies, usually in combination with medication.

• Fashion gone crazy: The latest fashion must-have to hit our streets from Italian fashion house Dolce & Gabbana is something rather strange: a perfume for babies. The brand's marketing ploy is to sell this to mother's to 'highlight the baby's natural scent'. My immediate reaction was "isn't a baby's 'natural scent' a full nappy?" Personally, I think this is fashion gone too far, and a very strange idea indeed. The manufacturers seems to think it's all OK because the product is 'without alcohol' – well, thank goodness for that.
• Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson are the new interns at Google: There are a lot of comedy movies with strong celebrity casts out at the moment which means they are needing clever marketing tactics by the day to rope us all into the cinema. Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughn have the right idea, they've teamed with Google+ to host a "hang-out" answering questions about their new movie "The Internship". The Wedding Crashers duo will play Google interns who are bossed around by staff who are a lot younger than them. Hopefully this will be like The Social Network part 2, but with more laughs.
Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughn: Google's newest interns
• The Women of LA: Just when you thought we'd had our fair share of cheesy LA set TV series, we've been given another one! One Huffington Blogger describes this new show Women of LA as "The Anti-Female anthem of 2013" which doesn't too sound promising. In short, the show's storyline is supposed to be about unattainable women and nerdy guys who want to have sex with them. Sounds exciting. Oh wait, it sounds like the story line of every single Hollywood movie starring Steve Carell or Michael Cera. I dare you to watch the trailer.
• Good For You, Madonna: The interesting thing about Instagram is it gives us a sneak peak into the lives of our friends but also a behind-the-scenes window into the lives of top celebrities too. Madonna's Instagram feed recently included a photo of her about to go on stage wearing some revealing clothing. Some websites have already branded these photos "unflattering", but I am continually wowed by her stamina and at the age of 54, I think she is looking great!
Madonna: still looking pretty darn good.
• Rappin' for Jesus: With the news last week of the Pope's public resignation, the social media world went slightly crazy. In an attempt to prove that religion is still 'hip and trendy', this video was created, starring a local pastor. Do we still find elderly people rapping entertaining? From the looks of the YouTube views, it looks like most people do.
• You need a new man: Hopefully you had a lovely Valentine's Day and did not have any experiences similar to that of the Telegraph's columnist's worst valentine's days listed here. But, if you did accidentally have a bad Valentine's day, have no fear, comedian Eudora Peterson has made a funny video listing all the reasons why you may need a new man.
Do you hate February 14 as much as Jessica Biel's character in the film Valentine's Day?
• Forget Dating sites, you can fall in love on Instagram: Apparently the latest way to find love is to start discovering people on Instagram by following their pictures. The story of Santiago Perez Grovas (@santiagopgm), and Taylor Dee (@thisgirl)_ falling in love is a sweet one, however Taylor Dee did think that she was following a woman at first: 'I thought, "Wow, this girl's amazing! I love her pictures" for about four about four months,' she revealed to Mashable. 'And then he posted a picture of himself and I realized he was a guy.' This just proves it; love could around any corner (or hashtag).
• Proposal prank: Everybody loves to watch a romantic proposal. If you so happen to see one in the street, or in a restaurant or perhaps you've been trapped with a couple of the London Eye you can't help but them a wink and a smile. Imagine how awkward these on-lookers felt when the bride kept running away.
• New Trend in Girls: There seems to be a new trend and that's to pull a face as hideous as possible! Instagram, Twitter and Facebook are being taken over by these funny photos. The most entertaining part is that the 'ugly face' is placed right next to the picture of a girl looking lovely, for a bit more a shock-factor. I'm very tempted to join in…
• And because it's Friday: And this is definitely weird and maybe wonderful, here is a compilation video of animals yelling like people. You can thank me later.

BENEFITING: Water For People
ORGANIZER: Aaron

Help Solve Our World's Drinking Problem
To you, getting a drink of water is easy. Turn on your faucet and get a refreshing drink.
To one in seven people worldwide, that's impossible. Getting water is back-breaking, life-threatening work. Every. Single. Day.
They can't drink, so neither can you. Until you donate.
A generous group of donors has pledged $1 million to this campaign, and challenged us to raise another $1 million. Our party is growing but we need you for it to be complete!

Have you guys heard of the slutty brownie (variations here, here, and here)? If you haven't, you need to acquaint yourselves quickly! It has been called, by some, the best brownie ever. Well, that may be true, but I would like to throw my brownie into the competition. This is my version of the slutty brownie. Instead of a cookie dough base, this is 100% brownie loaded with whole Reese's Peanut Butter Cups and Oreos. So I will lovingly refer to it as the Loaded Brownie.
To make these brownies, all you need is your favorite brownie recipe or mix (confession: I used a brownie mix) and some leftover candy and Oreo's. I used peanut butter cups because…well, just because. Who doesn't like chocolate and peanut butter?
I cut each peanut butter cup and Oreo in half and placed them on top of half of the brownie mix. I wanted to ensure that each brownie would have both pieces of Reese's and Oreos. I topped them with the rest of the brownie mix and baked according to package directions.
I found that these took a little bit longer to bake because they are thicker than normal, but if you like fudgey, gooey brownies, then don't worry about the extra time.
It took every patient fiber of my being not to cut into these brownies immediately out of the oven. And I clearly didn't wait long enough because the chocolate was still melted inside….but OH MY GOSH…how could I resist?! This brownie is simply amazing! Don't believe me? Well, don't take my word for it, but take my sweet coworkers word for it. A little old man on my floor who I rarely see, let alone talk to sent me an email to tell me this was the best brownie he's ever had. Proof!
And he's not wrong. It's the best brownie I've ever had! So if you have any leftover Halloween candy (wait, whats that?), make these brownies. Load them up with Reese's, Oreos, Snickers, Rolos, Twix, or whatever chocolaty candy you like best.
- 1 box brownie mix
- *ingredients needed for brownie mix
- 5 Reese's peanut butter cups, halved
- 5 Oreo cookies, halved
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Line a 8"x8" baking dish with parchment papers.
- Prepare the brownie mix according to package directions.
- Pour half the brownie batter into the pan, place halved peanut butter cups and Oreos on top, alternating between the two. Pour remaining batter on top.
- Bake according to package directions, adding 2-5 minutes to bake time.
- Allow to cool completely before cutting.

Addressing Cognition in Geriatric Depression: Measurement- and Evidence-Based Care Strategies
Addressing Cognition in Geriatric Depression: Measurement- and Evidence-Based Care Strategies
In this recording of a live symposium for geriatric psychiatrists that took place on March 8, 2016 in Washington, DC, three leading experts explore the challenges that complicate the treatment of geriatric patients with MDD. The content of the program centers on cognitive symptoms of depression, use of measurement-based care in MDD treatment, and clinical trial data on newer agents/strategies shown to positively impact cognition. Guidance for the implementation of shared decision-making is provided via an on-stage, panel interview of an actual geriatric patient with MDD, who shares his experiences with diagnosis and treatment.
Psychiatrists and psychiatric allied health professionals
At the conclusion of this program, participants should be better able to:
Describe the link between untreated symptoms of depression—particularly cognitive deficits—and dementia in geriatric patients with major depressive disorder (MDD)
Implement individualized treatment strategies for geriatric patients with MDD
Increase the proportion of patients with MDD aged 65 years and older whose symptoms are reassessed using a validated, quantitative assessment tool within 3 months of initiating antidepressant therapy
Utilize motivational interviewing and other strategies to actively engage geriatric patients with MDD in their treatment plans
This program is jointly provided by The American Association for Geriatric Psychiatry
This course expires on May 17, 2017.

It was a startling reminder that Central Canada is an earthquake zone.
Shortly after 1:40 p.m. on Wednesday, a 5.0-magnitude earthquake was felt across Ontario and Quebec, rattling homes and buildings from Sudbury to Quebec City, and as far south as New York City. Closer to the quake's epicentre, about 55 kilometres north of Ottawa, workers evacuated downtown buildings, pouring into city streets by the thousands, dodging falling objects and broken glass.
While no major injuries were reported, earthquake experts said geological faults throughout Quebec and in Ontario - near nuclear plants - could bring disaster in the future to a region that is not ready for a big quake.
"In the west, they're prepared: they design their buildings, they teach children in schools what to do," said Arsalan Mohajer, a professor of geology at the University of Toronto. "But in the east, we don't think it's going to happen. We'll be caught by surprise."
Dr. Mohajer said that faults run across Ontario and Quebec, and are potentially disastrous. He said a fault that runs along the St. Lawrence river valley is particularly threatening, meaning areas near Montreal, Cornwall and Quebec City could have large earthquakes in the future. Similar faults exist in the Niagara-Pickering area, he said, "inconveniently close to Toronto and safety-related nuclear facilities east of the city."
Wednesday's quake happened in the western Quebec seismic zone, which runs from Montreal to Timiskaming, Alan Baird of Queen's University said. Generally, earthquakes occur at plate boundaries where the rigid masses that make up the earth's outer shell rub and push at one another. The areas of the world best known for earthquake activity are found where plates bump and slide under one another. But Wednesday's quake, Dr. Baird said, was an "intraplate quake," which means it happened within a plate, as opposed to at a plate boundary.
The area is a "weak zone," he explained, where low to moderate seismic activity is common, and the result of stress built up within the plate from constant pushing at the boundaries.
Across central Canada, reports flooded in from those startled by the tremor.
Samantha Clement of L'Ange Gardien, Que., had just got her daughter to fall asleep when the shaking started. "At first, it felt like there was a big truck coming down the road," she said. "Then it was like an explosion from afar."
Ms. Clement gathered up her crying daughter and ran out to join her neighbours on the street. When she returned, she said, she found a two-inch crack on the ceiling of her upstairs hallway.
Meanwhile, the mayor of Gracefield, Que., declared a state of emergency after the earthquake damaged several buildings, including a hotel and the town church. Eric Alie, a mechanic for the town, said the church is closed because the roof was badly damaged.
On Parliament Hill in Ottawa, where the Senate was still in session, Senators were sent running onto the Parliament lawn after seeing chandeliers swinging and hearing the sound of glass windows crunching.
"We're having some contentious debates, so we were wondering if it was a message from the gods," joked Sen. Marjory LeBreton.
And for a city already on edge due to the upcoming G20 summit, Wednesday afternoon's tremors had many in Toronto panicking.
"We had a few conspiracy theories going," said James Lorimer, who works on the 37th floor of the First Canadian Place, the country's tallest office building. Just that morning, one of the city's subway lines had been shut down due to a "suspicious package," and some initially thought the shaking could be an act of terrorism or protest.

Texas A&M captures Big 12 title
Aggies roll past Sooners, tie school record for wins in a season
WACO, Texas -- Led by senior Jeff Dadamo, named the Most Outstanding Player in the Big 12 Championships, ninth-ranked Texas A&M topped No. 25 Oklahoma, 4-0, to win the 2011 Big 12 Championships held at the Baylor Tennis Center in Waco, Texas, on Sunday.
"Our guys played really well this whole tournament," Aggie head coach Steve Denton said. "Today, the doubles point was key again. We got on top of them and our guys then went out and won each of the first sets so Oklahoma was playing uphill the whole day. OU had a really tough match against Baylor and it may have taken a little out of them. Our match (with Texas) was a little easier and I felt like our guys stayed engaged the whole day and it really made a difference. Give OU credit, they fought hard, and John (Roddick) has done a great job with that program. This championship is great for our program."
"What can I say about Jeff (Dadamo) and all of our seniors like Austin (Krajicek), Alexey (Grigorov) and Kayvon (Karimi)," Denton explained. "They provide such great leadership, not only in our matches, but in everything that they do. They are great Aggies and have a great will to win."
In doubles, the senior All-American duo of Austin Krajicek and Jeff Dadamo, ranked No. 4 in the country, took care of the Sooner No. 1 doubles team of No. 70-ranked Ionut Beleleu and Tsvetan Mihov, 8-2. The doubles point was clinched when junior Colin Hoover and sophomore Alberto Bautista, ranked No. 90 in the land and the 2011 Big 12 Champions at No. 3 doubles, defeated the Sooner tandem of Lawrence Formentera and Laurentiu Gavrila, 8-6.
The Aggies continued to apply pressure by winning every first set in singles. The next point in the books came from steady senior, Jeff Dadamo who posted a 6-3, 6-4 win over No. 48 Costin Paval at the No. 2 line. It marked Dadamo's third win in the Big 12 Championships and moved his spring record to 22-3. Dadamo is ranked No. 36 in singles. Dadamo teamed with Krajicek to post wins in all three doubles matches this weekend in Waco helping make sure A&M won each of the doubles points in all three matches.
"Jeff served really well and was the most aggressive off of the ground that I have seen him play," Denton stated. "He really threw the first punch on most of the rallies and took control of his match and had his opponent on his heels throughout."
Junior Colin Hoover was next off of the courts with a 7-5, 6-2 victory at No. 5 as he defeated Lawrence Formentera, 7-5, 6-2.
"Bob (McKinley) and I talked between doubles and singles that we thought the matchup of Colin (Hoover) against (Lawrence) Formentera was a little bit better for us," Denton said. "We had been playing Alberto (Bautista) at No. 5 but that moved worked for us."
Junior Alexis Klegou, the Big 12 Champion at No. 4 singles and currently ranked No. 89 in the singles rankings, clinched the match with a 6-4, 7-6 (2) win against Peerakit Siributwong. The win moved Klegou's spring record to an overall 19-3 and he is perfect at No. 4 singles with an 11-0 mark.
Niall Angus moved into the No. 6 singles lineup and won his first set to keep the pressure on Oklahoma. Through the three Big 12 Championship matches, A&M only lost one first set in singles play.
The team win improves the Aggies' record to 27-5 on the year, tying for the most wins in school history with the 2001 club. That 2001 Aggie team was the last A&M squad to win the men's Big 12 Championship and it was also conducted in Waco. Overall it is the fourth title for the Aggie men's tennis program to go along with the 1998, 2000, 2001 and now 2011 teams. This was the second consecutive year for A&M to reach the championship match and the seventh time in the league's history.

This drug is considered as an analog of benzodiazepines due to its efficiency. Its effect become apparent in 15 minutes. Ambien is also characterized by short half-period (about two hours) and does not have pharmacologically active metabolites.
Generic zolpidem is a main component of various hypnotic preparations. Nowadays, it is probably the most widely-distributed soporific drug in Northern America and Europe.
Even though it is possible to buy Ambien online without a prescription, be sure to consult a physician before taking this medication.
Uses of Ambien
Doctors prescribe zolpidem for a short-term insomnia treatment. The efficiency of this preparation in sleep maintenance has not been proved, although it has been revealed that Ambien acts as a sleep initiation agent. Comparing to placebo, its efficiency is in the nature of a compromise.
Important information and safety precautions
Ambien is notable for its relaxant and hypnotic effects. Doctors often prescribe it during the therapy of such sleeping difficulties as:
- Waking up early in the morning
- Frequent nighttime awakenings
- Inability to fall asleep
It is important to know that Ambien should be prescribed for a short term, which is usually a week or so. Medical surveillance is required in case of long-term therapy.
Your MD needs to know about the following illnesses in case you are going to take generic Ambien:
- Suicidal thoughts or behavior
- Feeling of depression
- Drug or alcohol dependency
- Renal and hepatic diseases
- Respiratory diseases (asthma, bronchitis, emphysema)
In case you suffer from one or several abovementioned illnesses, you should consider whether you really need to take zolpidem, because it might be dangerous for your health. Medical advice would be helpful, as it could prescribe individual doses of Ambien and establish constant medical surveillance during the course of treatment.
Since Ambien is listed as category "D" drug in FDA enumeration, there is quite low possibility that this drug might have a harmful effect on a fetus. Nevertheless, it is reasonable to consult a physician before undergoing a treatment with Ambien if you are an expectant mother or going to become pregnant during the therapy.
Pharmacological action of Ambien
Zolpidem is a soporific agent of imidazopyridine group and agonist of gamma aminobutyric acid. Due to its selective connecting, this medicine is characterized by rather ill-defined anticonvulsive, muscle relaxant, and anxiolytic properties. Nevertheless, it has a potent hypnotic action.
Similar to zaleplon (Sonata), this active material can extend the slow sleep phase, having no effect on the second sleep phase. Meta-analysis of controlled clinical investigations as to "benzodiazepine vs. non-benzodiazepine" has showed several consecutive differences between Ambien and benzodiazepines. They concern the delay of falling asleep, general duration of sleep, number of awakenings, quality of sleep, adverse effects, tolerance, insomnia reoccurrence, and daily activity.
Are there any adverse reactions to Ambien without a prescription?
Tell your doctor if any of the symptoms below is severe or lasts for a long period:
- Stomachache
- Vomiting
- Constipation
- Appetite change
- Gases
- Somnolence
- Fatigue
- Giddiness
- "High" feeling
- Unsteady walking
- Uncontrollable trembling
- Dry mouth
- Ear noise, pain, or itch
- Red eyes
- Spasms
- Voluminous menstruation
Zolpidem might cause other negative reactions as well. If you experience some unusual feelings, do not hesitate to seek for medical aid.
What are the symptoms of overdose with Ambien?
Common signs of overdose with Ambien include confused mental state, sleepiness, and central nervous system depression.
The following cases are considered to be severe:
- Respiratory depression
- Hypotension
- Ataxy
In very rare instances, there might be developed comatose state. Noticed any of mentioned signs? Seek for emergency medical aid within the shortest possible time, because it could be a matter of life and death.
What if I missed a dose of Ambien?
This medication is supposed to be taken as the need arises. Thus, you could take it later than usual.
Can I buy zolpidem online without a prescription?
There is a number of countries where you can find Ambien for sale without a prescription. Check your local law to be sure that you are allowed to purchase this pharmaceutical.
If it is not prohibited, you can purchase the drug in various online drugstores. They usually offer user-friendly procedure of purchasing. You can choose your payment method (PayPal, etc.) and get your overnight delivery of Ambien.
That being said, remember that self-treatment might be dangerous for your health. Always consider consulting a doctor before deciding to place an order in some online pharmacy.
