Overall Record 6-6-2
Home Record 2-3
Away Record 4-1-2
Neutral Site Record 0-2
Longest Win Streak 3 games
Longest Losing Streak 3 games
Current Streak Loss 1

Last Meeting
Sept. 8, 2006 at neutral site (L, 0-1)
Scouting Cal
The Bears welcome in eight newcomers (all freshman) and 19 returners from last year's squad that finished 8-7-3 overall and 3-5-2 in the Pac-12 Conference. Among the returners, five are All-Pac-12 honorees from a year ago in junior goalkeeper Kevin Peach, junior midfielder Seth Casiple, junior defender Christian Dean, senior defender Ryan Neil, and junior forward Stefano Bonomo. Bonomo returns as Cal's co-leader in goals scored from a year ago with five, while Caspiple served up a team-leading seven assists. Cal also excepts the healthy return of senior defender Steve Birnbaum, who was a preseason All-American last year, but went down with a season-ending knee injury just two games into the season.
Breaking Down the 2013 Titans
Cal State Fullerton returns six starters and 13 letter winners overall from a 2012 squad that finished 8-12-1 overall (4-5-1 Big West), but ended the season strong, winning four of its last six games to earn a berth in the Big West Tournament for the second time in three seasons.
A new-look 2013 team hopes qualify for the conference tournament for a second consecutive year, as the Titans bring in one of the largest classes in recent years, welcoming 16 newcomers to the program, including five quality transfers. While Fullerton losses two All-Big West selections from a year ago, in top point getter Jesse Escalante (8 goals, 2 assists) and Gerzon Blanco, Fullerton does welcome back one of the league's most dynamic players in junior midfielder and 2012 All-Big West first team member Ian Ramos. Ramos led the Titans in points, goals, shots, and shots on goal during conference play a season ago.
(A Lot of) New Kids on the Block
2013 truly represents a new era of Titan soccer, as the program welcomes in the largest class of new players in the Bob Ammann era, with 16 newcomers (11 freshman and five transfers).
New Experience?
While Fullerton holds one of the younger squads in the nation, that doesn't mean the Titans don't hold plenty of experience. Out of Fullerton's 11 newcomers, five of them are transfers in forward Marc Fenelus, midfielder Garrett Losee, midfielder Alex Cannas, forward Amara Soumah, and midfielder Erik Stephenson. Forwards Fenelus and Soumah were both named as NJCAA First Team All-Americans in 2012, while Fenelus also led Western Texas College to its first ever National Junior College National Championship appearance.
Hit Me With Your Best Shot
Cal State Fullerton boasts a rigorous eight-game non-conference schedule, which includes six games away from Titan Stadium. For the season the Titans will play four teams that are either ranked or received votes in the NSCAA's preseason top 25 poll. Fullerton will take on ranked opponents in back-to-back games on the road on Sept. 8 at No. 16 San Diego and Sept. 13 at No. 22 Cornell. Once the Titans enter Big West play, Fullerton will continue to take on top-tier competition, as it'll face Cal State Northridge twice and UC Santa Barbara once. Both schools received top 25 votes.
Road Trippin'
The Titans will play 11 of their 18 (61 percent) regular season games away from Titan Stadium this season, which is the most since Fullerton also spent 11 games away from home during the 2009 campaign. Six of Fullerton's eight non-conference games will be away from home, including six of the first seven contests to begin the year. The six non-conference games away from home are the most Fullerton has had since it played seven in 2008. The Aug. 30 regular season opener vs. Memphis will mark the first time the Titans have started a season on the road since 2010.
Roster Breakdown
The Titans currently have 29 players on the 2013 roster. 20 players are from the state of California, five are from outside of the United States, three are from Utah, and one is from Colorado.
Filling in the Holes
Cal State Fullerton returns just 26 percent (7) of the team's 27 goals scored last season, 55 percent (12/22) of all assists produced, and 46 percent of shots taken (139/299).
Better Chance to Dance
The Big West Tournament format has changed in 2013. Now instead of the top two teams from each division qualifying for the conference tournament, starting this year the top three teams from both the North and South divisions will advance to postseason play with each division's No. 1 seed receiving a first round bye, for a total of six teams in the field. The tournament schedule is as followed:
Tuesday, November 12 - First Round
Friday, November 15 - Semifinals
Sunday, November 17 - Championship

Editor's note: Rep. Jason Chaffetz, a Republican, represents the 3rd District of Utah in Congress and is appearing in CNN.com's "Freshman Year" series, along with Rep. Jared Polis, a Democrat from Colorado.
Rep. Jason Chaffetz says Obama's speech glossed over danger that the public option will reduce competition.
(CNN) -- Fundamentally at its core, I simply disagree with the president.
He would like more federal control. I believe the best solutions will happen within the states.
I found it disingenuous that the president promised Americans they would not be required to drop their current health insurance, but withheld the fact that their employers would be incentivized to do so.
I was heartened to hear him discuss tort reform as a tool for driving down costs. If the president means what he says about the value of choice and competition, then there may be hope for a bipartisan compromise.
President Obama wants Americans to have more choices. So do I. My constituents also want more choices. But they acknowledge what the president and Democratic leaders do not -- that a public option will ultimately result in fewer choices, not more.
Asking health insurance companies to compete against their tax- exempt, taxpayer-subsidized regulator is a recipe for disaster. The deck is stacked so heavily against the private sector that a transition to a fully government-run system would only be a matter of time. If President Obama really wants choice and competition in the long run, then his best hope is to jettison the public option. iReport.com: "Obama's speech lacked courage"
Like my colleagues, I went home during the recess to thousands of constituents who have strong opinions about health care. Although the vast majority of voters in Utah oppose a public option, most recognize that something has to change.
In back-to-back town hall meetings, I had more than 1,000 people show up each night. In the rural counties of my district, unprecedented numbers of people came out to participate. What an amazing display of patriotism to see so many Americans stand up and demand to be heard!
There were poignant stories told highlighting the very real problems people face. People expressed grave concerns about the country's current spending spree. One youth held a sign that read, "Don't spend my $$$ before I'm old enough to earn it!" Health care was clearly the galvanizing issue.
I'm grateful that we as a Congress did not try to pass a health care bill none of us had read before going into this recess. I've spent many hours reading the entire text of HR 3200 -- the only health care bill that has made it through the committee process and is available to discuss with constituents.
It's no wonder there is so much confusion about what the bill means. Many of the provisions are vague or undefined. I told participants at my town hall meetings that I absolutely would not be supporting that bill.
Although there are many plans under consideration from both Republicans and Democrats, I have yet to find one that I believe would be the best solution for Utah. There are promising provisions in each of the proposals, but they take a one-size-fits-all approach to health care. In reality, what works well in one state may not work as well in another. Each state has unique demographics, resources and health challenges.
I believe we will obtain the best results when we allow states as much autonomy as possible to address their unique challenges. The principle of federalism works because it allows state and local governments to tailor their policy solutions to the needs of their populations.
We have to remember that the federal government did not create the states. States created the federal government. We would do well to unleash the creative power of state and local governments to innovate and drive new solutions.
That said, I recognize that some elements of health care reform must be addressed at the federal level. President Obama's remarks indicate it is still possible to bridge the differences between conservatives and liberals on this issue. I think we could solve 80 percent of this problem by simply passing the provisions on which we can agree.
The process is important. If we have a bad process, we will get a bad result. I believe toxic rhetoric and partisan abuse of the rules by either side only poisons the electorate and the process. I prefer to work in a bipartisan manner to weed out the provisions that both sides cannot live with and to implement those on which we can agree.
There are many good provisions that can easily pull support from both sides of the aisle. For example, few would fight efforts to incentivize preventive care, provide affordable access to insurance, make policies portable, cover pre-existing conditions, allow opt-out provisions for states, and promote more transparency in pricing and effectiveness of health care services. These are not controversial provisions. Furthermore, both sides would likely admit they would go a long way toward improving our health care system.
Meanwhile, I support the work of states to address health care challenges for their own unique populations. I hope more states will follow the lead of states like Utah to innovate and experiment with new ways to improve health care for their residents. Not every idea will work, but we can learn from successes, failures, and everything in between.
The opinions expressed in this commentary are solely those of Rep. Jason Chaffetz.

Melissa Carleton fell into a coma backing March due to a benign brain tumor which caused a seizure. She was kept in a coma at until her baby made it to full term. She delivered her son, West Nataniel Lande, by C-section, in May.
Since delivering her baby, Melissa has woken up from her coma. However, she spent months in the hospital. After being in the hospital for months, she was moved to her parents home, where she was provided with around the clock care according to Bruce Levenson.
She is finally getting to go home and live with her husband again. Which has to be a relief, as he has been commuting 4 ½ hours between where his home and job are located and where her parents live and where she stayed in the hospital.
Right in time to celebrate her son's first Christmas, Melissa is finally going home. The Saturday after Christmas was the first time she had seen her son in over two months. Right now, Melissa is able to be alert and respond to things happening around her. She is also able to move her feet. However, just like her newborn son, Melissa is going to have to learn how to walk, talk, eat and perform basic functions again. She is technically in a minimally conscious state, and has been fighting to get back. She has a long road in front of her before she is even ready to enter a rehabilitation facility. Her family is hopefully that she will continue to recover and are thankful for all the support they have received

Mediumistic Psychotherapy
Who looks outside, dreams. Who looks inside, awakens.
~ Carl Jung ~
Having mediumistic gifts is ever a blessing and a challenge. While the experiences they bring provide greater insight into the unseen cosmos of which we are an inseparable part, they also offer opportunities for personal expansion and growth of our individuality. These opportunities often go unnoticed due to unconscious personal blocks and defenses, including shyness, over-aggrandizement, self-doubt, worry, and frustration, all which hinder greater immersion into the mediumistic experience as well as personal evolution. One's own past also may contain less-than-positive physical, mental, emotional and psychological developmental experiences that have become entrenched in the present life, preventing us from achieving greater self-acceptance and compassionate understanding of others. This kind of baggage is simply not necessary anymore. We would like to help.
August has been in private practice for many years as a licensed and credentialed psychotherapist in New York City. Because of his years of experiential study and comprehension of the psychospiritual aspects of mediumship, he has been asked by his Risen guides to provide his services as a mediumistic psychotherapist to those individuals who are also mediumistic, and wish to gain increased insight into their own personal processes that may be hindering their progress as mediums and, more precisely, their spiritual self-awareness and beingness.
These private and confidential therapeutic sessions are not meant to provide instructions or lessons on how to be a medium, nor to provide readings, but intended for those mediums who want to achieve higher vibration of awareness of self and of the other spiritual dimensions. Identifying blocks or incomplete development will underlie the goals. Our cooperative and intense but gentle, careful exploration into the inter-vibrational aspects of mediumship may indeed bring increased development of one's mediumistic abilities, while activating those that are still latent, by fine-tuning the spiritual senses to formerly hidden, personal interpenetrating realities.
For more details and information on how to contact August about this work, go here.

Entombed in my office coffin, proximity has made us roommates. I at work in my lonely little cell. They, in the school yard, below – the play yard sounds drifting in my small roof window. This sound, however, haunts me with happiness, fills me with distraction. This day was warm, the little window open. And there it was, the noise, that delightful noise. It must be lunch time. Maybe, it is recess time, do I really know or care? And I hear it, happiness comes over me, as I exist snugly in my working confines. It is that sound, that wonderful sound, noise to some – to me, soothing, its beautiful- the sound of children laughing.
This is what I believe in. There is no greater sound. The jets take off, the cars go faster. I hear there is a new way to book a flight, a new way to transfer money from my bank account. Yet, I live for that sound- The sound of children laughing. I live in an often plastic world, a planned world – this is what I will do, this is what you will do. My mind searches for simplicity and understanding. I know what it is – I hear it – I hear the sound, in airports, in stores, in that play yard – that warm, hopeful sound – the sound of children laughing.
I sit alert at work that day- on the clock –a data program is running – I check an email while the program runs – but there I go- my mind drifts to a fine day – This particular day was truly a fine day for play. The wiffle ball flew through the air. It seemed a windy day at times. The ball floated and fluttered without reason, without logic. Catching the ball was a silly struggle. There was no strategy. My planned, strategized life had lost all dimension as I struggled to catch this ball. Do we all enter that world? Is this simple goal, is this the mission, to achieve the objective- just to catch this ball. The wind seem to come and go. It was a magical day. I finally did catch a ball that day, laughing, bringing it into my warm hands, under a soft summer sky. The sky, the day, gray in some ways, but not to me. I could hear the sound of the children laughing as we all played. The pine smell soaked the air. The bugs were hungry at times that day. Occasional menacing clouds stilled the air. The bugs seem to take that as a good time to come try us out. The game-the objective was so clear, so wonderful, hit the ball, and run. We all like to run, we all run toward something. Run to achieve or don't run at all- But today we run and laugh, and enjoy the wind, the glimpse of sun, the clouds – the cut grass, flowers, the far too many weeds – We live, we work, but truly we live to smell the pines, and feel that summer warmth, and to run, and maybe catch the ball that day, and be soothed by the sound of our children laughing.
The staff meeting was intense. No one escaped from this one. Email, instant message, cell phone – modern technology had captured all of us this day. You did this, CC me on this, zip the file, attach the file, PM me, IM me. … But, my mind wandered to that place – that special place – the small window – I could maybe peek up through, at the sky, but I just sit and work and listen- I sit, I hear that special sound…to my little window to hear the sound – the children laughing and playing in the play yard.. … .
The play yard's big slide was fast that day. I'm sure I would labor out there – too big, too consumed with predictable outcome to ride down the slide the right way – big butt cheeks, squeaking, laboring, skin on metal and slow we go. We grow up and no longer understand – but we use to- we still try to sometimes. The child at times, tries everything to understand our purposeful, predictable world. All must have reason. You could get hurt going that fast. What will the outcome be- I need to know this.
I can't be in that world – not right now – please don't make me….
Grab on, they say? Why… the big slide is very fast today. I can go so fast on it. I could put my shoes down to slow me up. But, I don't. I will certainly fly off the end. Life has dealt me that. I need to do it. I could grab on to the side, but I just can't. I have to know. I have to know. Life has challenged me, and I fast I go down the slide. I fly off the end and I have survived, dusty and a bit shaken, and I laugh- a laugh – the sound of my laughing. I love to laugh, to smile, to feel the world has for that brief second consumed me with joy – has given me joy – the joy of laughter – the freedom of joy and laughter.
This sound – from my little room – my little window- that wonderful sound, the sound of children laughing – the sound that transcends time, and gives me hope.

The Secret Life of Machines
Back in the mid-Nineties, I used to block time on the family calendar, ply the kids with Benadryl to knock 'em out, fire up the popcorn maker, unplug the phone, and hunker down in the Jingo Catacombs for the happiest hour of the week: A&E's presentation of The Secret Life of Machines.
I simply couldn't help it, the show hit me right where I'm most vulnerable: Tim Hunkin, this English arty-geek-boy eccentric, narrates amusingly illustrated explications of how common household machines work, how they came to be invented, and the principles of physics they employ.
Try his Secret Life of the Fax Machine; if you're not just 100% beguiled by it, then you and I have nothing further to say. Good day to you, sir. I said, good day.
There's an amusing interview with Hunkin at the B3TA web site.
It's difficult to classify Hunkin as either an artist or a scientist -- his web site announces him as both "engineer" and "cartoonist" -- and this is a great part of his charm. He makes art installations -- full-sized tableaux vivants, working machines, arcade games, interactive exhibits -- that comment very drolly on both science and art, bridging the gap between the two with disarming -- and frequently explosively funny -- humor.
Finally, check out this poster he drew. Way too cool.

Lawmakers in Springfield passed a bipartisan stopgap budget on Thursday, June 30. In addition to keeping the government open and programs running through the rest of 2016, the bill also included funding for education and transportation that runs through 2017. While there is plenty more work which must be done, the stopgap budget is a tremendous step in the right direction and will have a number of positive impacts on the Quad Cities and our economy.
K-12 Education: One of the biggest barriers of compromise has been education funding. The Quad Cities economy is powered by having a highly skilled and educated workforce, so it is imperative that our schools are properly funded. The deal reached will provide full-funding through 2017, and includes increased funding for early childhood and districts with high percentages of low-income families.
Post-secondary Education: Higher education received funding through 2016, including funding for Western Illinois University's operations and full-funding for MAP Grants, which are vital for local colleges and students' funding.
Transportation and Infrastructure: Transportation received almost $2 billion to cover operations and projects through 2017. Included in that was full-funding for Quad Cities-Chicago passenger rail. Governor Rauner and Illinois Department of Transportation recommitted to the project last week, and have provided assurances that federal funding will remain intact. The funding included in the stopgap budget means other projects such as the I-74 Bridge and John Deere Road expansions will continue as well.
Budget, Workers Comp, Energy Remain Priorities
There are still a number of priorities that need to be addressed. The Quad Cities Chamber continues to advocate for passage of the Next Generation Energy Plan. This bill will provide a clean energy plan for Illinois going forward and ensure that nuclear energy is able to compete economically. Without this legislation, Exelon will close the Quad Cities plant in 2018 and the Clinton plant in 2017, which will mean thousands of quality jobs lost and will severely hurt county and school finances.
Finally, while the stopgap budget passed last week is significant, the need for next year's budget remains. The Quad Cities Chamber will continue to push the importance of the budget fully funding all of its obligations. Cuts or lack of funding for human services and a plethora of other programs have hurt vital and often vulnerable parts of our local economy. We need strong reforms in workers compensation, which continues to burden businesses and inhibit Illinois' ability to be competitive. Finally, Illinois must reform its redistricting process and adopt a fair process that allows for government to better function.
The Chamber looks forward to working with the legislature on reforming pensions, which were agreed to be passed this year.

Clean uninstall of Checkpoint SecureClient on Snow Leopard
Posted on 07 September 2009
Once you want to uninstall SecureClient R56 HFA1 on Snow Leopard, it might leave 2 or 3 files on your receipts folder. This is not a big issue as long you are not reinstalling the SecureClient. But if so, the installer will end with "succeeded". Unfortunately SecureClient is not in the Application folder nor in /opt. Nothing really is installed.
After you uninstalled SecureClient with Checkpoints uninstaller (Application/Checkpoint/uninstall) you have to remove 2 or 3 files in a receipts folder. Afterwards a new installation of SecureClient should be really succeed in showing up the Application.
Open the Terminal Application from the utilities folder and type:
sudo rm -rf /private/var/db/receipts/com.checkpoint.secureclient.R56.bom sudo rm -rf /private/var/db/receipts/com.checkpoint.secureclient.R56.plist sudo rm -rf /Library/Receipts/SecureClient_B634000031_1.pkg/
The last line might be different depending on the Name of the package you installed with.
3 responses to Clean uninstall of Checkpoint SecureClient on Snow Leopard
Hi there,
I have also tried al kinds of installs and uninstalls, and no matter what I try, I can't find the secureclient anywhere.
Any ideas.?
Even after performing the above operations, the checkpoint secure client didn't get un-installed. So, I searched on finder for "secureclient" and could find /opt/CP*/scuninstall
and when I ran the "scuninstall" file, it successfully un-installed Checkpoint vpn secure client.
Any ideas on when Secure Client will be supported in Snow Leopard?

Ellen Page Confirmed As Lead
Kicking off their E3 press conference in style, Sony brought out David Cage of Quantic to announce their next project, Beyond: Two Souls, for Playstation 3. Using the animation technology demonstrated in the Kara short that was unveiled earlier this year, it ended up not being the sci-fi project some were hoping for but something completely different. You can see the trailer for yourself after the jump.
A far cry from self-aware robot girls, we now know that Beyond will centre upon the character of Jodie Holmes, played by actress Ellen Page. Taking place over the course of 15 years of her life, it will explore the subject of death, and what is on the other side beyond life, as players ultimately determine Jodie's fate. The action packed trailer provided some incredibly tense scenes, and while we didn't have the faintest clue what was actually going on (that could have been the tiredness kicking in at that point) we here at Dealspwn are definitely fired up to find out more of Quantic Dream's next project.

I've put my old sewing machine to good use these past weeks. I'm almost expecting it to fall apart from all this unusual pressure. LOL
Anyhow, this is my latest project, a couple of "bookshelves" for my boys. :)
Made out of fabric of course, I don't have a magical sewing machine that can handle wood.
So, my kiddos picked out this fabric at IKEA, and I also got the perfect-sized IRJA curtain rods over there. 10 sek a piece, can you believe it?! I bought 4 for this.
Since I'm a true novis at sewing, I'm sticking to straight pieces of fabric, and only zig-zag and simple straight seams. Easy peasy.
A couple of (fairly straight) seams later, and some drillinghelp from my handy handyman man haha ...here they are! Some of the teddybears quickly found their home in there too.
A closeup. For now the rear rod is just resting on the brackets, but I think I'll have to come up with a solution to make it stay there.
Kids love it though :) *phew*

New York Fashion Week...Welcome to the Jungle
Rise and shine girls. Today is the first official day of New York Fashion Week, and it's raining. No matter. The fashion show must go on. I have a little tradition of laying out all my invites on my hotel room bed, and every season the collage gets bigger. Yay! I'm pretty stoked about some very coveted invites I got this time around: Oscar de le Renta, Monique Lhuillier, Rodarte and Diane von Fursternberg. But I'm always excited to see some of my faves: Jenni Kayne, Nanette Lepore, Rag & Bone and the list goes on. Once again, Bella and I will be blogging with our buddies on ELLE.com so be sure to check us out over there! Stay tuned for exclusive designer interviews, runway reviews of the Fall '08 collections and more fabulous fashion fodder.

In this Southern gothic drama, Griffith (Dan Montgomery) has lived all his life in the poor Mississippi community of Pine Apple. While Griffith wants to move on and try to make something of his life, he's stranded in Pine Apple by his responsibilities to his crippled Aunt Summer (Karen Black) and his affair with his cousin Emily (Aleksa Palladino). A man from out of town (Walton Goggins) arrives and rents a cabin from Griffith; he soon finds himself attracted to the stranger, confronted by emotions he has never felt before. Red Dirt, the feature debut for writer and director Tag Purvis, was shown at the 2000 L.A. Independent Film Festival. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Scarsdale Mother Pleads Not Guilty in Pot-Growing Case
Woman is Accused of Producing Marijuana in a Queens Warehouse.
A mother of three from suburban New York pleaded not guilty Friday to charges she ran a sophisticated marijuana-growing operation at a Queens warehouse for more than four years.
Andrea Sanderlin, 45 years old, of Scarsdale, N.Y., faces two counts of manufacturing and processing marijuana and maintaining drug-involved premises. She faces up to 10 years in prison and the possible forfeiture of at least $13,000 and property if convicted....

Store Before The Storm (lunch 2.9.10)
The mad rush continues! Today class was jammed with info and I actually ran out of time before I got through it all -- I don't think the student cared though because that meant there was less to be tested on next class!
I ran home and got right down to work on some outstanding questions from class. I am now trying to make a plan to get to the store and stock the house as best I can with the impending snow store that is arriving tomorrow. I am sure the store will be a chaotic scene but if I can at least get the basics I can always grab a few extra things at the corner market on a dog walk. I'm making tonight our vegetarian night and I thought I would make a big meal but it looks like it might just be Will and me so to save some time and energy I may use my "egg night" excuse. We'll see if I am inspired when I go to the store. My lunch was boring - just baked chicken nuggets, macaroni & cheese and carrots sticks with dip all leftover from the little Super Bowl party. Since that wasn't a great meal I may change my mind and make a pasta & veggie dish for us -- I'm sure I'll be happy I did when I can use leftovers of that later in the week. The day is passing by quickly as usual so I have to keep moving as fast as I can to keep up with it!

I doubt she could be fat. my ex tried being cute and tried giving me a piggyback ride. he actually stumbled backwards and ran my back into a doorframe. oh man it hurt for a week or so. hahaha. and I'm not even fat either, I only weigh 130. I'm sorry op. like someone else said, he probably feels bad that he caused you pain.

80 - that's not even the same thing she's suggesting. I see enough FML's which make me think: "...really? Why is this even on here?" How about you? Yes? Well her suggestion was a "who cares" button for those FML's. Because you aren't the only one who decides if a FML is approved or not, and apparently enough shitty ones make it through anyway.
And why were you trying to be so hardcore on the internet? Calm down?

Yeah being picked up while kissing doesn't work. Women don't have handles to be lifted by, even if they're short and light. Try kissing after being picked up, with one of his arms under your knees and the other under your back, that's better.

Sacred Testimony
The opportunity to work with my clients from a soul to soul level is sacred. Here are a few of the testimonials I have received from my clients:
"Oh my gosh Marjolaine! I had the best, most restful sleep I have had in ages. I'm feeling so centered, present and if I'm being honest, happier and like a weight has been lifted. I feel like I have integrated all that's going on AND have what I need to be present and move forward with ease. Thank you!!"
Cara Halber of Nourish-Soul-Full-y
"I just wanted to give a lil update. Today has been very different than the average day these last couple of months. I have teared up several times-specifically when I receive knowing or truths. When I tear up I've been wondering-are these happy tears or sad tears? They should be happy but I am not feeling emotion when they happen...I also have been drinking water faster. I have done two tapping (cortices) sessions, they feel good and I actually feel inclined to sit outside and read a book with my feet in the grass. I am thinking I am in need of deep healing and grounding. Also I have been able to see/catch myself in very counterproductive thinking-which I think I have numbed myself to seeing in the last couple of months!!! Thank you for taking my hand and guiding my through to see the truth!!x You are a very special, much needed light worker Marjolaine."
Trisha Matthews
"My experience with Marjolaine was more than amazing. She was able to help me get through blocks that my mind and body were holding on to. We laughed and cried and did both at the same time. I am forever grateful for what this has done for me and how it's helped me. I will always and forever be a returning Customer!"
Sabrina Baker
"Doing my first BodyTalk session ever-Marjolaine made me feel comfortable and at ease. She helped me get through internal blocks that I did not know consciously existed. She was able to pinpoint areas in my life that needed a light to be shined on. She then allowed me the space to relax and let go of those internal blockages that I had. Marjolaine has a powerful energy field, I could feel her presence throughout the entire session."
Kimberly Gillard
"Wow! What an amazing experience!" Even just walking into the "Zen Den" I felt instantly in a safe place. After having the process explained to me and walking me through the steps we would take, I was so excited to dive into this new experience I was about to have.
The oracle cards were so fascinating to me. Marjolaine read and explained each card and how they related to what was going on. The whole process of BodyTalk was amazing but I loved this part the most.
With each formula created I felt relief and release. I have never experienced anything so instantly relieving before. I highly recommend this to anyone. I can not wait until my next session.

Men in Kilts welcomes first female franchisee
A company that has so often been asked about its name Men In Kilts can now say that they have more than just men who know how to clean windows and perform other exterior cleaning services
A company that has so often been asked about its male-focused name can now say that it has more than just men who know how to climb the ladder of success.
Men In Kilts recently welcomed its first female franchise owner, Judith Briggs, who will run operations in Boston. The opening of this location marked the fourth franchise in the U.S., and the 10th franchise in North America.
According to a recent report by Franchising.com, women are becoming increasingly involved in the franchising world.
"I would definitely agree that more and more women are finding their way into the world of franchising," said Briggs. "Women tend to have many of the skills involved in owning a franchise: organization, communication and the ability to improvise, which are all perfect characteristics for anyone wanting to operate a franchise."
Although Briggs is now the first woman to own a Men In Kilts franchise, she is not the first to lead its operations. CEO Tressa Wood joined Men In Kilts in 2009 and is excited to welcome another woman to the organization.
"We hope this will help other women out there who may have been thinking of opening a franchise with us. Typically men are attracted to the cleaning service positions, but women can certainly handle the operations and run a successful business," Wood said.
Men in Kilts founder Nicholas Brand said: "Being a male-dominated company was never the intention I had when I came up with the name for the business. To be honest, I just thought it was a quick and witty name, and because it is primarily men who wear kilts in Scotland, it was just fitting."

great jointer
I have had this jointer for a little over a year now and I like it. I could not afford the 8 inch jointer so I got the 6 inch one. I may buy an 8 inch one someday, but I would keep this jointer for anything under 6 inches wide this one is great. the extra long bed has two benefits. First it adds weight to the tool that is really important for the type of work it does and second, you can run longer boards on it than the shorter ones. Set up is not too hard, but I recommend asking a friend to help given the weight of the machine. Remember, a good project requires flat wood. It makes no sense to run lumber through a plainer that has not had a flat surface started on a jointer.

What more dignified way to preserve a half-finished bottle of Nero d'Avola than with this jauntily attired porcelain bear stopper from Imm Living's Victorian Manimal series?
Part human, part animal, the Victorian Manimal wine stoppers are the best of both worlds. Inspired by the hybrid visions of the Victorian era, these porcelain wine stoppers are the perfect combination of man, beast and fashion. Available in two styles, Rooster and Bear, these two will add style and class to any bottle of your finest.

Intergovernmental Review This program is subject to the requirements of Executive Order 12372 and the regulations in 34 CFR part 79. The objective of the Executive order is to foster an intergovernmental partnership and a strengthened federalism by relying on processes developed by State and local governments for coordination and review of proposed Federal financial assistance. In accordance with the order, this document is intended to provide early notification of the Department's specific plans and actions for this program. Waiver of Proposed Rulemaking In accordance with the Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. 553), it is the practice of the Secretary to offer interested parties the opportunity to comment on proposed rulemaking documents. However, in accordance with section 437(d)(1) of the General Education Provisions Act, the Secretary has determined that, because it is not possible to offer the public an opportunity to comment on proposed rulemaking under the Preparing Tomorrow's Teachers to Use Technology grant program and still make awards by September 30, 1999, as required by law, it is desirable to waive public comment for the first-year competition of this new discretionary grant program. This waiver applies only to the selection criteria, procedures, and requirements included in this notice for awarding FY 1999 grants. Any selection criteria and procedures that the Department establishes for the award of grants under this program in future years will be based on experiences with this FY 1999 award process and will be published in proposed form in the Federal Register with an opportunity for interested parties to comment. General Requirements In order to best effectuate the goals and objectives of these grants and to administer the program fairly, the Secretary defines an eligible applicant as a consortium composed of SEAs, LEAs, IHEs, or other public and private nonprofit or for profit agencies and organizations. [[Page 14890]] Additionally, the applicant, as used in 34 CFR 75.128, must be any nonprofit member of the consortium. Finally, the Federal funds provided by these grants may not provide more than 50 percent of the total cost of any project funded by a grant under this program. The non-Federal share of the project costs may be in cash or in-kind contributions. Indirect Costs For purposes of indirect costs that may be charged to the grant, all funded projects are treated as ``educational training grants.'' Therefore, consistent with 34 CFR 75.562, except for costs that may be incurred by SEAs or LEAs, a recipient's indirect cost rate is limited to the maximum of eight percent or the amount permitted by its negotiated indirect cost rate agreement, whichever is less. Application Review Procedures The Secretary announces the use of a multi-tier review process to evaluate all applications submitted for new awards under the FY 1999 Preparing Tomorrow's Teachers to Use Technology program. The Secretary takes this action to ensure a thorough review and assessment of the large number of applications that are expected to be received under the FY 1999 competition. This multi-tier review process does not affect the contents of applications in this competition. Technical Assistance Workshops for Prospective Applicants The Department of Education has scheduled seven regional technical assistance workshops between March 24 and April 9, 1999, to help prospective applicants to better understand the Department's approach to implementing the competitive grant process to be held this summer. Under the Preparing Tomorrow's Teachers to Use Technology program, applications by consortia must be received by June 4, 1999. At these workshops, the public will be able to learn more about the purposes and requirements of this program, how to apply for funds, program eligibility requirements, the application selection process, and considerations that might help them to improve the quality of their grant applications. Department of Education staff with expertise on these and other issues related to the Preparing Tomorrow's Teachers to Use Technology program will be available to answer any questions on these topics. Participants may register for technical assistance workshops online at http://www.ed.gov/teachtech, by printing out a copy of the registration form from the website and faxing it to (202) 260-8412, or by calling 1-800-USA-LEARN for registration information. The meeting sites are accessible to individuals with disabilities. The Department will provide a sign language interpreter at each of the scheduled workshops. An individual with a disability who will need an auxiliary aid or service other than an interpreter to participate in the meeting (e.g., assistive listening device or materials in an alternative format) should notify the contact person listed in this notice at least two weeks before the scheduled meeting date. Although the Department will attempt to meet a request received after that date, the requested auxiliary aid or service may not be available because of insufficient time to arrange it.

5 tips to build your email list amid Google's mobile interstitial crackdown
In an effort to make web browsing more mobile friendly, and to reflect the increase of mobile usage, Google has started penalizing mobile pages with intrusive popups, or as they call them, "interstitials." Starting January 10th, 2017, Google has begun to roll out the update.
The update is good news for web surfers, since they no longer have to deal with intrusive popups, but it leaves web entrepreneurs grieving, as popups were the main source of email list growth. Whether by offering to sign up for a newsletter, or by using the more advanced method of offering free bait to their emails.
Though the age of easy popups-for-emails has ended, that doesn't mean that your email list growth has to stop. It just means that you have to get more creative about how to build that list. Here are a few ideas how you can build your email list, without pissing Google off.
Everything you need to know about Google's interstitial penalty
To understand the update's impact on your store, first we have to understand what we're dealing with.
What are interstitials?
Google has cracked down on intrusive mobile "interstitials," which is a fancy word that describes anything that stands between a website visitor and the main content of a site. That varies from popups to overlays to welcome mats.
What Google considers intrusive:
This means that if you have any of these kinds of interstitials on your site, you're at risk for being penalized in Google's search engine.
Why should you care about Google's interstitial penalty?
You should care about the interstitial penalty, because it can severely limit your traffic from Google. This is a problem because traffic, in turn, can turn into sales. If you take a look at your Google Analytics data, then it's quite possible that the #1 or #2 traffic source is Google. In an analysis of 18,000 online stores, 30.5% of all traffic was coming from search engines. Therefore Google plays a significant role in ecommerce, and this is a statistic worth keeping in mind and cultivating.
How is the penalty implemented?
The penalty is rolled out based on a recrawl basis. What is crawling? "Crawling" is Google's software that sends out "spiders" to collect information for the search engine, from keywords to, you guessed it, interstitials (aka popups). It takes time, and the update algorithm will only be applied to your page once it's been recrawled.
How much will the Google interstitial penalty impact your online store?
One month into the update, the results are mixed, and it's currently unclear how much the update will affect your site. In some instances, publishing sites have experienced a mobile ranking drop of 10 or more places such as PCMag, a popular electronics review site, that was in 3rd place and dropped to 13 after the update. However SEO specialist Glen Gabe has reported "weak effects" after having surveyed 60 sites after being recrawled, and has stated that the algorithm update "has no teeth."
It's important to note that even if the update at first isn't as effective as expected, that's not to say that Google won't tweak it. For that reason, we suggest being fully ready for the changes and implementing the tips we've laid out ahead.
Tip #1: Set your popup software to "desktop only"
Since the interstitial penalty is only applied to mobile popups, the logical first step is to turn off all interstitials for visitors who are visiting from their mobile devices.
Many popup software providers like MaxTraffic and Nosto offer the option to select if your popup will be shown on mobile devices, desktops, or both.
How to disable mobile popups for Nosto
Go to your Nosto account, choose "On-site" in the menu, and then select "Popups." Scroll down to the mobile view and check "off" for mobile. Make sure to hit the save button afterward!
Nosto's minus is that they don't allow you to disable tablets, though the penalty is expected to affect all mobile devices.
How to disable mobile popups for MaxTraffic
Go to your account, select the campaign you want to edit, go to "Target visitors" and select "Desktop."
Once you've disabled mobile popups, you'll be sure that the mobile interstitial penalty won't be applied to your online store.
Tip #2: Exchange your offer popups for a landing page
Once you've disabled your mobile popups, you'll be safe from the Google penalty, but you'll also be missing the function that the popup filled. For many store owners, that means that you've lost the ability to inform visitors about a special deal, a coupon code, a seasonal product line, as well as the ability to collect visitors' email addresses, which are critical in developing a relationship to eventually guide them to a purchase down the line (also known as a sales funnel).
To maintain the ability to show your visitors a specific message, rather than directing your visitors to your homepage with a popup, direct them to a landing page that serves the same purpose.
Here are a few great landing page products:
How to use them?
- Targeted ads that point to landing pages – not only will you be avoiding the popup dilemma, this is also a good case practice – to have your landing page content match the content of the ad
- Social media posts that link to landing pages
- Any online referrals that lead to the landing pages
- Click triggered offers on your site – it's essentially a popup that occurs only when someone clicks on it. That way you know they're interested in the offer, and it won't count as intrusive.
Here are some ideas of what you can put on your landing pages:
- Free digital content in return for an email address: like an ebook, whitepaper, desktop wallpaper, and more.
- A coupon code in return for an email address: just like you'd have on a popup, offer a coupon code on your landing page. Afterward, direct the visitors to your shop.
Tip #3: Built-in email field
If you can't collect email subscribers through mobile popups, why not have the function built right into your site? Most Shopify templates offer this built-in feature, so all that's left is to activate it. If you have the opportunity to get a bit more technical, you can play around with the location of the email field, so that it's in more of a visible spot.
Pro tip: Try adding an incentive, like "Sign up for 10% off your next purchase"
Tip #4: Less intrusive interstitials
Email bar – an email bar takes up a minimal amount of space on your phone, and therefore not enough for Google to consider it "intrusive." Test the bar out on your mobile device to make sure it's responsive. Some services that offer this are the SumoMe Smart Bar and the Hextom email bar for Shopify.
Scroll popup – some popup services let you control when your popup will be visible. If you set the scroll popup to show up below the fold, then it will be compliant with Google's mobile requirements.
Tip #5: Embedded welcome mats
Though regular welcome mats/landing mats are on the black list for Google's interstitial penalty, embedded mats are not, because they technically don't count as a popup. A regular welcome mat is a popup message that takes up your entire screen and is overlaid over the site you're visiting. Once you dismiss the welcome mat, you access the site underneath. However the embedded welcome mat is technically inside your page, not over it. For that reason it functions as a workaround to the popup penalty.
Some products that offer embedded welcome mats:
- SumoMe Welcome Mat – compatible with most platforms
- Icegram for WordPress – for WordPress only
Lesson learned – Google's popup penalty doesn't have to kill your email list
What it does mean, however, is that you have to put a little bit more thought into it. As with anything related to growing your online store, it comes down to the time and effort you're willing to put into growing, developing, and getting better day by day.
Just because you've lost your go-to list building device, doesn't mean that you have to stop building that list. Give these tips a try and let us know in the comments how it worked, and other ideas we missed!

Two motorists hurt in a two-car crash on the Hague Road March 17.
Jennifer C. Mattison, 44, of Ticonderoga, and Todd W. Porter, 42, of Hague, were trapped in their vehicles and had to be extracted by Ticonderoga Fire Department personnel, with assistance from Hague Fire Department rescuers.
Ticonderoga police said Mattison was driving south about one-half mile north of the Hague town line when her vehicle slid on black ice and collided with Porter's vehicle head-on. Police said water from melting snow had been running across the roadway, and froze overnight.
Mattison and Porter were taken by ambulance to Moses-Ludington Hospital in Ticonderoga.
Porter was transferred to Fletcher Allen Health Care in Burlington by medical helicopter. Mattison was taken to Fletcher Allen by ambulance. Both drivers were listed in serious condition.
No tickets were issued, but the accident is still under investigation.

To John Adams from Mercy Otis Warren, 25 October 1782
From Mercy Otis Warren
Milton October 25th 1782
Many Months have Elapsed, and many Great Events have taken place since I took up my pen to address you,1 among which few are more important to this Country than the Dutch Negotiation, and perhaps None have been attended with Greater Difficulties, and none more Replete with Honour to the prime actors than this. Yet I should not have Ventured to pass my Censure on Its opposers, or to Give sanction to the Measure, by a full approbation of the spirit and Dignity which has brought it to a Completion. Had it not been repeatedly Called upon in the Late Letters to your friend, a friend (who though now a private Gentleman) is not Less Attentive to the Intere[st] of the public, nor Less Attached to the Minister at the Hague than when you both stimulated by the Noblest Motives of patriotism, and bound by the strong ties of Mutual Friendship, Nursed the Embrio of opposition, Discussed the Nature of Government, and Formed the plans of Revolution by the social Fire side at Plimouth. But the Enthusiasm of poetry has Languished under the hand of Time: and the Muse Grown too Timid, amidst the Noise of War, to Attempt an Elogium on the Virtues of patience, perseverance, and patriotism. Though the sterling Worth of Those Capital Virtues have been tryed in the Fiery Furnace of Intrigue, Deception, and ingratitude.
But the Historian must be very Negligent of Fame who is not ambitious that all the Extraordinary transactions in the Diplomatic system, should stand Conspicuous in his Work. But when the poignancy of sarcasm is strongly felt by the too susceptable Heart, some Little thirst of revenge will arise in the most Good Natured of the Human Race—nor is any office so illustrious, or any Character so sacred, but he must submit (if he provokes the threatening) Even to the Menaces of a Woman. He will not find himself secure though hid in the pallaces of princes, or sheilded by the stronger Bulwark of his own integrity. Therefore Depend upon it, a Blank shall be Left (in Certain annals) for Your Dutch Negotiation, unless you Condescend to furnish with your own Hand, a few more Authentic Documents to Adorn the Interesting page.2
If the Refinements of the European World has Wroght the Divine Science of politics into a Mechanical System, Composed of all the Foperies of Life,3 be assured Sir, America is not a Century behind them in Taste. You will not therfore be surprized when told, that the test of merit is Wealth, And that Every thing which is Lucrative is Honorable in this Country. But as Mankind in all ages are Governed Less by Reason than Opinion—it may again become Fashionable to be Virtuous, and the Man be more Respected for the probaty of his Heart, than for the Trapings of his Horses. But as the Morals of a people Depend more on the Genius of their Rulers than the Mode of Government, the Leading Characters among us do not at present promise such a Happy Revolution in Manners. And so little prospect of success is thier to the struggles of the uncorrupted few, that I do not find my self quite willing your much Esteemed friend, Mr Warren, who has but just retird from the public Walk, (sickned by the servility and weakness of Man, and wearied with the unremiting Vigalence of Near twenty years in the Field of politics) should again return to the Embarased Scene—yet Convinced of the Necessity of sending our best men to Congress, and knowing you deem it a point of the utmost importance, I dare not urge my Arguments against His repairing to philadelphia to you. Were it prudent to Transmit them beyond the Atlantic, some of them you would acknowledge Weighty, Others you might place to the score of Female Timidity, Delecacy, or perhaps pride.4
What a Many Headed Monster is a Republic Grafted on the principles of Despotism. Nor is a sovereign without a Crown a Less Dangerous Annimal than the Monarch Whose Brow is Graced with the splendor of a Diadem.5
If any Expression in this appears like a Decay of public Spirit in the Wane of Life, a line from your pen might Revive the Languid taper, though not as the Rescript of a Minister, but as the Admonishions of a Friend.6
I need say Little of your Family as Mrs Adams Neglects no opportunity of writing you. She with all her livly Children spent yesterday with us on Milton Hill.
As I have touched on the Domestic feelings to which you are not insensible, I shall Mention a son,7 Dear to his parents, and amiable in the Eyes of his Friends, has any part of his Conduct since in Europe rendered him unworthy—that Mr Adams has Never once Named him in his Long absence. If he has, your tenderness will still impose silence. If not, the Flattering hopes of a Mother, will be strengthend in your Next Letter to one who subscribes with much Respect & unabating Esteem Your assured Friend & Humble servant
M Warren
RC (Adams Papers); endorsed: "Mrs Warren Ansd Jany 29. 1783." Some loss of text where the margin is worn. Tr (MHi: Mercy Warren Letterbook). The transcript is considerably longer than the recipient's copy and significant differences between the two are indicated below. For a description of the nature and content of the "Mercy Warren Letterbook," which is not in Mercy Warren's hand and was done years later from copies not now extant, see AFC description begins Adams Family Correspondence, ed. L. H. Butterfield, Marc Friedlaender, Richard Alan Ryerson, Margaret A. Hogan, and others, Cambridge, 1963–?. description ends , 1:93–94.
1. Mercy Otis Warren's last extant letter to JA was of 28 Dec. 1780, to which no reply has been found (vol. 10:445–447).
2. In this paragraph, Mercy Warren is responding to JA's reference in his 19 Aug. letter to James Warren, above, to the treatment of his Dutch negotiations in her planned history of the Revolution. Her request for more documents presumably means in addition to those contained in JA's A Collection of State-Papers description begins John Adams, comp., A Collection of State-Papers, Relative to the First Acknowledgment of the Sovereignity of the United States of America, and the Reception of Their Minister Plenipotentiary, by Their High-Mightinesses the States-General of the United Netherlands, The Hague, 1782. description ends , which James Warren's letter to JA of 1 Nov. (Adams Papers) indicates was enclosed in the letter of 19 August.
3. In this paragraph, Mercy Warren is responding to JA's comments in his 17 June letter to James Warren, above, but see note 4.
4. In the transcript, the commentary in this paragraph was expanded and altered as follows:
"You observe in a corner of your letter, that the refinements of the European world had wrought up the divine science of politics, into a mechanical system, composed of all the fopperies of life. Be assured Sir, that America is not a century behind them in taste. We are a people remarkable for our aptitude of improvement; yet it may require time to ripen and digest the plans both of policy and pleasure. You will not however be surprized when I tell you that already the test of merit is wealth; and that every thing lucrative is deemed honourable in your country. But as the morals of the people depend more on the genius and character of their rulers, than on the mode of government, it may in some future day again become fashionable to be virtuous, when the man may be respected more for the probity of his heart, than the trappings of his horses;—but at present there is little prospect of such a happy revolution in manners.
"Mr. Warren will write you by this opportunity, but though chosen a delegate, he will not repair to Congress this year. He has retired from the public walks—fatigued with the unremitting vigilance of near twenty years in the field of politics:—he declines engaging again in the embarrassed scene, while there is so little prospect that the struggles of the uncorrupted few, will bring back the minds of others to the point from which they have wandered. Death, desertion, indifference, or foreign employment have left few of the first capital characters in Congress.
"Several other arguments I could urge in favour of his determination; was it prudent to transmit them beyond the Atlantic. Some of them you would acknowledge weighty; others you might place to the score of female timidity, delicacy, or perhaps pride. Yet I am so convinced of the necessity of sending men of the most impeccable characters to Congress, that I rather wish him to go on."
5. Likely a reference to John Hancock.
6. In the transcript, Mercy Warren's comments were expanded as follows:
"I cannot conclude this without observing, that, though I may have been the last of your correspondents who has congratulated you on the success of your late negotiation, I believe I am not the least sensible of its importance: nor among the multitude of your friends, have you many who enjoy in a higher degree, your compleat triumph over the British Minister.
"We are none of us insensible of the anxieties, the fatigue, and hazard, you must have surmounted in your peregrinations from Court to Court; nor of the firmness and integrity necessary to obtain success. Your success in Holland has secured the claims of America—on a basis that promises wealth and honour:—and if we support a national character of our own, and are not wanting to ourselves, I may add happiness to posterity.
"Have you lately seen a son of mine now in Europe: a son very dear to his parents and very amiable in the eyes of his friends?
"Your lady and family spent yesterday with us on the summit of Fremont. Do you think our friends in France and Holland made any part of the conversation? I will acknowledge we wished for their company, and sure I am that were you to behold the varigated beauties exhibited to the eye of reason and gratitude in this pleasant Villa, though you are surrounded by the glare of greatness, and caressed in the Courts of Princes—you would breathe a sigh for the social hour of private friendship, and the sweet moments of contemplation in so delightful a retreat;—'Where the free soul looks down and pities Kings.'"
In the first and second paragraphs, Mercy Warren is apparently responding to JA's comments in his letter of 6 Sept. to James Warren, above.
7. For Winslow Warren, who had been in Europe since 1780, see vol. 11:75–76, 296. JA mentioned him in his letter to Mercy Warren of 9 Dec. 1780, the same day on which he also wrote to James Warren, but since the only extant copies of those letters are letterbook copies in the Adams Papers, they may not have been received (vol. 10:404–407).

After using just once I loved how my hair looked and felt I was instantly hooked...It even looked great for the next day or two with just a little refreshing. Yet again another amazing product from Living Proof!" - Debby
the collection

- helps you wash your hair less often
- makes hair look healthier instantly and gets better over time
*Perfect hair Day Shampoo, Conditioner and 5-in-1 Styling Treatment.
Actually Cleans Hair.
"Dry Shampoo" has been a bit of a misnomer as products on the market haven't actually cleaned your hair. The powder-based formulas soak up oil often leaving behind a dirty residue you can see and feel. That's not clean hair - that's just dirty hair in hiding.
Living Proof Perfect hair Day (PhD) Dry Shampoo's Triple-Action Cleaning Technology tackles the three dimensions of clean hair: how it looks, how it feels, and how it smells.
- fast-absorbing powders soak up oil and sweat
- our patented Healthy Hair Molecule (OFPMA) reduces the surface friction on hair, so it's easy to remove the powders that have absorbed the oil and sweat in your hair
- odor neutralizers eliminate less desirable smells and time-release fragrance releases a light, clean scent all day long.
Finally, a Dry Shampoo that works. It's the next best thing to washing your hair.
You're not dreaming…
Night Cap is beauty sleep for your hair. It transforms the way your hair looks, feels, and behaves - overnight.
This pillow-proof, power-packed formula targets hair from the inside out, combining our patented Healthy Hair Molecule (OFPMA), amino acids, and time-released conditioners to:
- Keep hair smooth, soft, and shiny
- Make hair strong, visibly healthy, and more manageable
- Protect and seal the cuticle for long-lasting, vibrant color
Now you can catch your ZZZs and perfect your hair at the same time. Plus, the benefits last all week (up to 5 shampoos).
The science behind Fresh Cut Split End Mender
Most current split-end products rely on a resin-based technology that glues the hair together and visibly seals it but the hair feels tacky, gunky, and anything but freshly cut.
Our instant-zip technology actually targets the split:
- microscopic charged capsules utilize ionic forces to visibly zip the end closed without binding individual strands together
- mango butter then delivers a conditioning layer on the hair fiber
- a light film former forms a durable protective seal so ends feel soft and smooth and stay that way
- finally, our patented Healthy Hair Molecule (OFPMA) creates a smooth, polished finish that leaves hair looking and feeling as fresh as a new haircut.
Finally, a real solution that truly helps keep your ends looking and feeling freshly cut.
