We discuss the real reasons women have for not sleeping with you
At MensLifeAdvice, we always talk about how to perform well in bed and how to make the most out of sex, but all of that means nothing if she's not willing to have sex with you. A flat-out refusal to have sex with you is brutal, but sometimes it takes something as brutal as rejection to make us understand the real reason why she won't have sex with you.
Women are hard to understand. They want sex just as much as we do, yet having sex solely depends on how they feel about the situation. There are certain situations that will always affect a woman's decision to give it up or not, even when they really want to, and you'll just have to be prepared and take it like a man. Here are some reasons why she won't sleep with you:
You don't make her comfortable
A woman can be wildly attracted with you, and yet feel very uncomfortable when you're together. The attraction is there, but attraction is nothing without comfort. In order to make her comfortable, you would need to make her feel safe alone in your presence. Some men are just way too deep into their macho persona that they forgot to tone it down a bit to make women feel comfortable around them.
She knows she can't orgasm
There are times when women can feel if they would experience an orgasm or not, and when they do, they would rather catch up on their favorite TV series than offend you by not being able to orgasm. Yes, sometimes, she's just nice like that.
You're not a good kisser
How you kiss tells your partner how crafty you can be in bed, and when you're bad, then it doesn't bode well for you in bed. A bad kisser is a deal breaker in sex. If you're unsure about how you make your partner feel when you kiss her, it's best to ask someone you have actually kissed to get some pointers. It may be awkward, but there's a 1/100 chance that you end up banging instead.
Slut shaming
If she doesn't do it with you, then she's a prude; but if she does, she's a slut. Yes, that's what the world has come to now. It makes no sense, but these sentiments are only aired when she's unsure about how you feel about the whole thing, and if she really had to choose, she'd rather be a prude than a slut.
Your pheromones aren't clicking
Simply put, pheromones are those chemical signals that tell your partner if you are biological matches. If you're not a match, then she won't give in. It's that simple. However, you can increase the potency of your pheromones by increasing your testosterone levels. Formula 41 Extreme has testosterone-boosting ingredients that can enhance your testosterone production. Higher levels of testosterone will affect you in a number of ways – you carry yourself with a different air of confidence, and your pheromone levels will rise, which can make her biologically attracted to you – and there's no stronger attraction than that. Check it out.

There was a Northern invasion in London this week as three of the region's biggest cities descended on the capital to remind everyone that there is life outside of the M25.
First up was a trip to the May Fair Hotel, where Manchester Central were hosting a reception in the sleek and trendy bar. I chatted to CEO Shaun Hinds about the major plans for the venue he's got up his sleeve for 2018 – I can't say much more, but watch this space.
Then it was a case of nipping downstairs to the hotel's plush Crystal Room for ACC Liverpool's annual festive networking event. It's a big year for the ACC in 2018, with the replacement for the recently-departed Kerrin MacPhie set to be announced and the venue's 10th anniversary sure to be celebrated with all the exuberance and style we've come to expect from the city.
And to round the evening off, I headed over to the McLaren showroom in Knightsbridge (pictured) where delegates from Sheffield City Region were meeting potential investment partners from across the country. Obviously, Sheffield lacks a venue on the scale of Manchester Central or ACC Liverpool, but the city still holds its own as an international events destination, having recently hosted 300 delegates from China at the 2017 Horasis China Meeting in November. You can read a case study of the meeting in the forthcoming January issue of M&IT.
It may just have been a coincidence that they were all in town on the same night, but it did feel like the Northern Powerhouse gathering steam – something that will hopefully continue as we enter 2018.

Wurzach developed into a city in the late 13th century and the oldest seal dates from the first half of the 14th century. The seal already showed a lobster, which probably symbolises the lobster fishing in the Aach river. In 1558 the first image with three lobsters appears and in the 17th century the arms showed three crawling lobsters on a black bend, and a knight as supporter. These arms remained in use and were officially adopted in 1934 (see below).
In 1966 the oldest arms, with a single lobster were restored (above).

Sony To Bring Qriocity To Europe
They say that curiosity killed the cat, but now Qriocity is gunning for bigger game. iTunes. Sony will be launching their digital distribution platform for music, video and even e-books in Europe by the end of the year, with designs on getting a slice of the lucrative download pie.
"We are excited to offer our customers high quality, cloud-based entertainment experiences across many of Sony's network-enabled devices. Services 'powered by Qriocity' will revolutionize the way that users play, listen, watch, share, communicate, learn, discover and create their digital entertainment content."- Kazuo "Kaz" Hirai, President of Sony's Networked Products & Services Group
This bizarrely named platform (which is a nightmare for spellcheckers everywhere) be rolling out for PS3s, Bravia televisions and VAIO PCs in the UK and four other European countries. [PS3 Center]
Treyarch Unleashes Black Ops Multiplayer Details
Treyarch and Activision has finally shot the lid off Call of Duty: Black Ops' multiplayer features. A lot is riding on the successor to Modern Warfare 2 (with Activision keen to improve on its predecessor's record-breaking sales figures)... and whilst we'll still be able to kill people with big guns for points and rank, there are a fair few major differences this time around.
First of all, a new currency system has been introduced. Known as COD Points (insert fish joke here), this cash can be used to purchase specialised challenges or actually gamble on high-stakes player matches. Known as "Wager" matches, these games are sure to be far more personal and intense than anything we've seen in Call of Duty before. The trailer (below) demonstrates various new game modes, including a "sticks and stones" gametype that limits armaments to crossbows and knives; and the insane "One In The Chamber" experience that looks to be incredibly tense. If a picture is worth a thousand words, the video's got to be worth checking out. [Courtesy of VG247]
Gun customisation has been kicked up a notch: with players now able to trick out their beloved boomsticks with skins, clan tags and logos as well as the usual gamut of modifications. Last but definitely not least, a new botmatch option will also allow cautious players to learn the maps and gain some valuable practise without damaging their all-important victory ratio.
Oh, and there's going to be an actual, factual minigun. Brutal.
We're absolutely psyched for Black Ops' multiplayer... but do you want to know more about the singleplayer? Why not check out my Gamescom impressions of two Vietnam-themed levels!
First Resi 6 Info Coming "Soon"; May Have Move/Kinect Support
Resident Evil 5 provided a critically acclaimed new focus for the series, but proved incredibly divisive with fans . In a new interview with Spanish gaming site 3D Juegos, Resi producer Keiji Inafune stated that Capcom would "soon" be releasing some juicy details about the next game in the series.
Details are very thin on the ground this stage, but we know that Jun Takeuchi was angling for a franchise reboot. Unfortunately he now won't have anything to do with Resident Evil 6- so it's anybody's guess. Yes, that is an invitation.
The interview went on to discuss Inafune's opinions about on Playstation Move and Kinect, which prompted the producer to offer the following tidbit:
"Both [devices] will not be necessary for the players, but will offer many possibilities. As with Resident Evil 6, soon will have news about it ..."
What do you want from Resident Evil 6? Have your say (and drop off your wish list) in the comments!

Re: Contradiction begins in the first two chapters
Jst, we pay attention of evidence and logic.
We are told that the ark came to rest on Mt. Arat. Which is over 16,000 feet high. Water has a bad tendency to level out on its own, which means that for the water to be that deep, it had to cover all of the globe, even if some mountain rangers were not covered.
Now you just said that maybe that the water might have only flooded that region. It would have had to be much shallower not to affect the rest of the world. And remember your argument about sea shells (you didn't mention that they were fossils, but you did mention the sea shells) that you said prove the flood. They are found near the tops of the Himilayas, which are, like, you know, almost twice as high as Mt. Arat.
And while you are saying maybe, we are saying definitely. That there is definitely not enough water to flood that deep, that there is definitely no evidence to show that it ever did. We are saying that there are definite explanations, with multiple proofs, that the continents move around, that mountain ranges are formed out of low lying rock when such masses meet and cause the surrounding land to be pushed upwards. We can map the specific rock formations that match exactly where South America broke away from Africa. We can also map the same exact fossilized species that existed in both of those rock samples.
We have living tree colonies that are over 35,000 years old. We have amazing cave painting in France that are dated at 35,000 years old. Which have never been under water, or they would have been destroyed. We have a planet full of plants, few of which would be able to survive so long under water. Especially 6 miles of water, which would put thousands of pounds of pressure per square inch on the land and grind most anything organic into dust. Biblical adherents ignore the fact that fresh water fish cannot handle salt water, and vice versa. Only a few can do that, like the salmon, and then only during certain parts of their life cycle. So how did the fish survive water that was too salty to be fresh, too fresh to be salty?
Why is Crater Lake, an extinct volcano in Oregon that is , at the lowest point on the rim, about 7,000 feet high, filled with wonderful, fresh, drinkable water? Were it once filled by flooding seas, it should be salty. It has no runoff and it's water level is controlled by rain/snowfall and evaporation. Were it at one time full of sea water, it would still be salty. Even if the water was not as fully salty as the ocean.
And there is other evidence. We have drilled through the ice cores in Greenland, where every winter a new layer of ice is formed, and where every years layer is discernable because of seasonal changes in the snow, which becomes ice as it is buried under the next decade worth of snow. And we have ice cores going down through over one million such layers. Just to be clear. One million layers equals one million years.
We have living tree colonies that are over 35,000 years old. They could not have survived a flood. We have amazing cave painting in France that are dated at 35,000 years old. Which have never been under water, or they would have been destroyed.
A geologically explainable flood and deluge occurred at least ten times in the Pacific Northwest, where Lake Missoula, an ancient body of water, occasionally breached ice and rock dams, allowing water to flood across Northern Idaho and Eastern Washington, then down the Columbia to the ocean. Those floods left huge, and I mean huge, deposits of river rock. The largest such deposits in the world. Water came out of the lake in such huge volumes it equalled ten times the flow of all other rivers in the world. Water that sat in the lake right where I am sitting right now in Montana (I would be under water if it were 12,000 years ago) ended up in my home town in Oregon just a couple of days later. A distance of about 450 miles as the crow flies, 650 via the route it took.
There are no other, and I repeat, no other rock deposits in the world that large. None. If an epic scale flood of the sort you think happened covered, or mostly covered, this planet, time and time again the evaporating waters (and where would it go?) would get trapped behind mountain ranges until it could all flow out and such huge floods should have happened all over the world. But they didn't.
12Monkeys Haida tribe and other native Americans have oral histories that go back to the time of the migration from Asia, 10 to 12 thousand years ago. Archaeological evidence confirms humans have inhabited this continent at least that long. The many pieces of evidence that have been excavated from sites on both the North and South American continents would have been washed away in any flood that covered them that deeply.
Sandals woven of sagebrush, over 10,000 years old, were found in a cave in Oregon. Any worldwide flood would have destroyed them completely. They survived because they were in a dry cave in a desert.
My list could go on literally for days. We have a multitude of reasons to know (not doubt) that there was no flood.
None of this evidence was gathered specifically to disprove a flood. It was gathered in efforts to find out what the history of our planet has been via geology, biology, paleontology, archaeology and other specialties. Chemists and physicists, botanists and ethnographers, all have gathered evidence that matches well with other evidence of a much older and never flooded earth. And all have gathered evidence that matches not at all with the biblical account of a flood.
In other words, we can explain the whys of many an earthly phenomenon, and not one requires or even hints at a huge deluge. Not one. Yes, there have been regional floods which left plenty of evidence. The whole of the Mediterranean sea filled up via a flood when a natural dam near the Rock of Gibraltar broke. The Black Sea filled from the Mediterranean in a similar fashion. But those events took place long before there were people. And the evidence for those and other localized floods abound. But for a world-wide flood? Not one shred of evidence. Not one.

Insanity right? Guess you'll have to pick one up to see just how mad we really are. 🙂

Your 3 year warranty covers you for any malfunction or manufacturing fault. Typically we will send you a replacement within 48 hours of receiving your old pair of scissors back.

The warranty strictly covers failure through normal use when used in accordance with the instructions and common sense.

Why go Atomic?
The Bulgarian Garbage Dumps are overflowing with Biomass and Alternative Energy.
It seems Bulgaria should prepare an Alternative Energy Program for the Balkan Region as an example in CO2 reduction and not increasing nuclear waste from hard water.
Bulgaria should look closely at the Spanish Alternative Energy Program and look closely at the cities of Barcelona and Madrid Biomass Recycling Programs.
One visit by the Mayor of Sofia to these installations is very important.
Since Bulgaria has become European and with an European Governmental flair and culture it seems Bulgaria should begin to understand concepts that are not brute and gross and look closely at environmental technologies and environmental solutions, contaminated land and its remediation, energy efficiency, energy management and renewable forms, water and effluent solutions.
Why Atomic Energy for Public Use?
We need answers from our European President of Bulgaria. Hable Espanol o Cirilico.
Now the World Bank has entered in the arena for Bulgarian Development Process.
The Energy Program should be a Private and Governmental mix for the development process.
Let us not forget the Reform Process for the GOVERNMENT.
Let us watch closely the EU/Balkan Development Process with the World Bank.
We have to watch the Bulgarian "Ali Baba and the Seven Thieves" syndrom in Bulgarian Transparency.
Let us think of more Bulgarian Ecological Reserves with an ISO 14.000/14.001 classification.
The Organic Waste for renewable energy and let us not forget soil recuperation from the garbage dumps.
We need to set an example in renewable energy for the Balkans.
An articulated policy is needed.
We need to know what will Bulgaria represent to the World Bank through its Planning, Infrastructure with Sustainability, Long Term Sector Planning, Quality of Life Definitions, Dignity for the Population, Protection for Women, Children, Minority Groups, Poverty, Food Security and Public Health, Environmental Awareness.
CO2 Exchange through Emerging Economies for the Balkans.
Let us begin Sofia, Blagoevgrad, Burgas, Varna and Pleven. Sofia is the PILOT PROJECT with TRANSPARENCY.
The Bulgarian Landfills and Waste Management without an alternative energy program is suicide and related with the aforementioned.
Why Nuclear??????
I am shocked at the attitude and the ignorance of the Bulgarian Public and its awareness to the climate conditions in Bulgaria and the region of the Balkans.
The Impacts of Climate Changes in Bulgaria and the Balkans is astounding for example Rising Sea Levels, Strong Winds and Powerful Storm Surges similar to hurricane winds in Sofia. These climate conditions will surely affect a nuclear plant in Bulgaria that is aged, lacking technology and high ignorance in climatology.
Cooling waters are always needed for a nuclear plants positioned near river, sea and ocean without consideration of CLIMATE CHANGES THAT IS EVER CHANGING.
The continuation of carbon omissions increasing temperatures, precipitation in the winter and dry weather in the summer concluding with heavy wind surges and storms reveals that the Bulgarians either stay in their homes or are deadly asleep.
Where is Greenpeace who have made studies in Brazil and Argentina disclosing the fears of nuclear power in the most sensitive environmental areas in the world?
In the Antarctic, the Bulgarian research team is asleep in their igloos or watching the penguins and the albatrosses.
Is it Bulgarian Nuclear or Bulgarian "No Clear" and ignorant.

La Grande Nostalgie (Film: La Grande Vadrouille – Louis de Funes, Bourvil, 1966)
Posted by Dan Romascanu under movies
No Comments
Comedies age. All things age actually, films included, comedies included. Seeing 50 years later a film that you remember having laughed at until falling under the chair (this is a Romanian expression, I hope it's clear what it means) is risky. The experience was interesting and surely much different.
Filmed in 1966, a little more than 20 years after the end of WWII, Gérard Oury's La Grande Vadrouille represents a certain step in the evolution of the French (and not only French) films about the war that devastated Europe and the whole world. Taking distance and starting to allow ridicule replace at least in part hate and contempt for the German former enemies was not a completely new thing, I can remember Christian-Jaque's Babette Goes to War which preceded it with seven years. Yet, in this story about three British airmen parachuted in occupied Paris and saved by a band of French civilians including a famous music conductor (Louis de Funès), a humble paint-man (Bourvil) and a blue-eyed blonde puppeteer (Marie Dubois) the enemies are still all bad and stupid. It will take a time for the 'good German' to show up in war movies and even more time for the cinematographic acknowledgment of the collaboration with the occupiers. Meantime all French are good guys. Or good girls. Or good nuns.
(video source StudiocanalUK)
The film enjoyed huge success, it was actually from its release until 2008 the most successful French film of all times. I remember having seen it in the late 60s in Romania, and I read about film fans from China for example enjoying it as a huge success after the end of the Cultural Revolution. To a large extent the success is due to the presence on screen of the two greatest comedy actors of the French cinema at that time – Louis de Funès and Bourvil. Both were huge stars and Gérard Oury had brought them together on screen in a previous film, and now wrote the scenario of La Grande Vadrouille especially for them. Most of the time they are together on screen and the comic qualities of the two enhance each other, the chemistry between them is obvious and so is the pleasure of acting. Years have passed and I did not fall under the chair any longer, laughs turned into smiles and nostalgia, and I can also see the naivety of the script and the schematic story line – but it's certainly mostly me. The two are again together in my mind, at least for the next 50 years.

I cannot wait to take a trip to Seattle and see and taste all it has to offer. Once I finally do make it there, I will definitely be making the Dahlia Bakery my first stop. Until then, I'll enjoy some treats from their cookbook.

If the majority of your new customers are coming from word of mouth referrals, create opportunities for more referrals. Don't spend your hard-earned cash on advertising to people who don't know and love you. 2. What was your main reason for choosing us? I am constantly reminded that price is not the main reason people choose to do business with you. Consistently across the 70 industry sectors I have surveyed, trust that you can provide the right product or service is the No. 1 reason. But there are others and you need to know the reasons why customers choose you, because this is essential to your communication with existing and potential customers. 3. What is one thing we do really well for you? This question gives you clues about why you are better than your competitors--and this creates opportunity to exploit your strong points in your marketing. Customers will tell you why you are better than the guy down the road. Your job is to make sure that you keep delivering well on your strengths. 4. Is there anything we could we do better? This is the number one reason why business owners don't do customer surveys, yet this is vital information that you need to know. You need to know where the gaps are so you can plug them. Don't allow your weaknesses to be your competitors' advantage. 5. On a scale of 1 to 10, how likely are you to refer a friend or colleague to us, where 1 is not likely at all and 10 is extremely likely? What are you doing today to move your business forward? JQ

Cotton Mather's account of the Salem witch trials, 1693
View this item in the Collection.
Most Americans' knowledge of the seventeenth century comes from heavily mythologized events: the first Thanksgiving at Plymouth, Pocahontas purportedly saving Captain John Smith from execution in early Virginia, and the Salem witch trials of 1692. The myths surrounding what happened in Salem make the true story that much more difficult to uncover. Arthur Miller's play The Crucible, which forms the basis of many Americans' knowledge of the trials, takes liberties with the story. Miller transforms Tituba, a young Native American girl, into an African slave who led a group of young women into the forest to participate in magic rites. He also portrays the accusers as teenagers when many were in fact much younger.
Cotton Mather, a prolific author and well-known preacher, wrote this account in 1693, a year after the trials ended. Mather and his fellow New Englanders believed that God directly intervened in the establishment of the colonies and that the New World was formerly the Devil's territory. Cotton Mather's account of the witch trials reinforced colonial New Englanders' view of themselves as a chosen generation of men.
The Salem witch scare had complex social roots beyond the community's religious convictions. It drew upon preexisting rivalries and disputes within the rapidly growing Massachusetts port town: between urban and rural residents; between wealthier commercial merchants and subsistence-oriented farmers; between Congregationalists and other religious denominations—Anglicans, Baptists, and Quakers; and between American Indians and Englishmen on the frontier. The witch trials offer a window into the anxieties and social tensions that accompanied New England's increasing integration into the Atlantic economy.
A transcribed excerpt is available.
Wherefore The devil is now making one Attempt more upon us; an Attempt more Difficult, more Surprizing, more snarl'd with unintelligible Circumstances than any that we have hitherto Encountered; an Attempt so Critical, that if we get well through, we shall soon Enjoy Halcyon Days, with all the Vultures of Hell Trodden under our Feet. He has wanted his Incarnate Legions to Persecute us, as the People of God have in the other Hemisphere been Persecuted: he has therefore drawn forth his more spiritual ones to make an attacque upon us. We have been advised by some Credible Christians yet alive, that a Malefactor, accused of Witchcraft as well as Murder, and Executed in this place more than Forty Years ago, did then give Notice of, An Horrible PLOT & against the Country by WITCHCRAFT, and a Foundation of WITCHCRAFT then laid, which if it were not seasonably discovered, would probably Blow up, and pull down all the Churches in the Country. And we have now with Horror seen the Discovery of such a WITCHCRAFT!

Broward County Administrator Floyd Johnson on Tuesday sidestepped questions about his career plans during the first public discussion of his recent candidacy for another job.
Johnson was a finalist for city manager in his native Richmond, Va., but was eliminated from the running for the $90,000-a-year post on June 5.
During three days of interviews in Richmond, Johnson missed two budget meetings in Broward and one review of the county`s hurricane preparedness.
It was the third time in a year Johnson has been a candidate for another job.
Questioned about his plans by County Commissioner Nicki Grossman on Tuesday, Johnson said, ``I currently do not have any other prospective jobs, and I can assure you that I will not be seeking any during the current budget process.``
That process could last until Sept. 30, the day before the new fiscal year begins.
``And that,`` Johnson said, ``is when I`d like to`` talk about the trip to Richmond, the possibility of other jobs and a proposal for a longer-term contract to continue in his $84,000-a-year job as Broward administrator.
Grossman said she would ``look forward`` to the discussion in the fall.
A. Prescott Rowe, Richmond city manager search committee chairman, said Johnson was eliminated after interviews because ``it was clear that he did not have city experience. It`s a different service system,`` though Johnson ``looked very good on paper.``

Market Reality
European online gambling and betting is a successful and dynamic sector, representing almost half of the worldwide market. In Europe, the online market is slightly more than 17% of the total gambling market, leaving land-based operators the majority share of 83% of the European market.1
Global leadership of the European industry but for how long?
The European market is today the largest market for online gambling worldwide. Of the €34.6bn of online gaming gross win (stakes minus winnings) generated globally in 2015, more than 47.6% per cent was attributable to the EU market. This leadership comes from the innovative character of European operators, the high internet penetration in Europe and a lack of regulatory opportunities in the US and Asia to build similar industries. But Europe's leadership is uncertain due to the increasing fragmentation of the EU market along national 'boarders' and economic protectionism.
A growing sector in Europe
Being a relatively young and new market, the online gambling sector in Europe is still developing, albeit slower due to the increasing regulatory pressure. Online gambling's Gross Gaming Revenue (GGR – stakes minus winnings) is expected to rise from €16.5 billion in 2015 to €24.9 billion in 2020.
Betting is the most popular European online gambling product at 37% of the market, whilst online poker and casinos make up respectively 24% and 12%.
Only a minor share of gaming is performed online
The European online gambling sector accounted for 17.5% of the total European gambling market in 2015. Independent forecasts expect online gambling's market share to steadily rise to 22% in 2020. However, the revenue of the offline market is also predicted to increase from €77.7 billion in 2015 to €84.3 billion in 2020, meaning that the growth of the online market is not to the detriment of the offline market and its traditional providers.
Different customer and product profiles
Revenues generated by traditional land based operators stem from long-established products, such as those found in physical betting shops, casinos and bingo halls, and offerings like scratch cards and lottery tickets. Online gambling offers a wide variety of products, often found on one integrated site where consumers can place a bet on the outcome of a basketball game, or play poker. There is also a very low substitution level between the online and traditional land based sector because of the different player profiles.
A growing sector profitable to both private and monopoly operators
Traditional lottery operators also offer consumers the opportunity to participate in online lotteries and increasingly also include e-betting and e-poker in their ever extended offer. Today these monopolies account for more than 20% of the European online gambling market, with the proportion being much higher in Northern Europe than in Southern and Eastern Europe.
- The online gambling sector is a young and vibrant sector of the digital economy, and one of the few digital fields led by European companies.
- • The traditional land based operators and monopolies continue to expend their offline revenue while also rapidly expanding their online offer.

Teen Mom fans rave over Jenelle Evans' swimsuit pics with her beau (PHOTOS)
Get ready to have serious vacation envy.
Teen Mom's Jenelle Evans has been posting a lot of photos from her recent trip to St. Thomas. Evans visited paradise with her new boyfriend, David Eason, and didn't let up on the social media posting — and I'm not going to lie, I have been coveting her vacation, hard.
Among those photos were snaps of white sand beaches and her smooching Eason.
More: Jenelle Evans angers fans with her very "fake" before-and-after pic (PHOTO)
She also posted a pretty rad before-and-after pic, showing the progress she's made with her weight loss and fitness goals over the last 11 months.
And if you think there is something kind of familiar about these photos, there is. Evans and Eason are visiting the same spot she and then-boyfriend Nathan Griffith visited. This is the very same spot he proposed to Evans.
More: Jenelle Evans reportedly defends her boyfriend's criminal past (PHOTOS)
But that before-and-after photo, though!
Evans' fitness lifestyle was kicked into high gear after her split from Griffith. The couple's major relationship trouble began during their Virgin Islands trip in January. The most recent season of Teen Mom 2 documented their rocky relationship and subsequent breakup.
Evans began dating Eason in September.
Fans are loving the "new" Evans and are posting words of encouragement, telling Evans, a mother of two, how good she looks. Many are even asking her for her secrets, but it is pretty clear she's been working her butt off — see what I did there? — and keeping at her diet and fitness routine, and here we can see it really is paying off for her.

Control Diabetes with Education and ConfidenceGulf Coast Healthy Living Magazine Volume 7, Issue 1 - Baptist Medical Group - Endocrinology
Diabetes does not take a vacation. People living with it may try to ignore symptoms of elevated blood sugar (glucose), but the illness will find them. It is also the most common endocrine disorder and one of the largest health issues facing society. Baptist Medical Group – Endocrinology is devoted to help educate and empower people living with diabetes in our community.
Board-certified endocrinologist, Tareq S. Khairalla, M.D., says it is important for patients to be aware of subtle symptoms that may alert them to see a physician.
"Fatigue, excessive thirst, frequent urination and unexplained weight loss can be signs of high blood sugar," said Dr. Khairalla. Other factors that may be cause for concern include falling asleep after meals, blurring or other changes in vision, mood changes, difficulty healing and frequent infections.
Baptist Medical Group – Endocrinology works with patients who have all types of diabetes – type 1, type 2, gestational diabetes and others. Type 1 diabetes leaves a person with little or no insulin resulting in a sugar buildup in the bloodstream. Baptist Medical Group – Endocrinology can offer insulin pumps and glucose sensors that allow patients with type 1 and some type 2 to continuously monitor their own blood sugar levels.
With the team at Baptist Medical Group – Endocrinology, patients can expect a true partner in their health journey. Their goal is to offer compassionate care that empowers people to take care of their diabetes needs, as well as other hormonal imbalances and metabolism disorders.


text: Culture Clash Published on May 01, 2003. Here's a freelance job you don't see every day. Thanks to a personal acquaintance with one Mehmet Garan, who runs Radio Oxi-Gen, a world music station broadcasting from Istanbul (www.radiooxigen.com), New York creatives Jerry Fields and Marta Ibarrondo were asked to work up a print/outdoor campaign that would "dial up the cool factor," as the client put it. Driven by the line, "Mixed up music for mixed up times," the copy reads, "Soul, House, Leftfield, Down-Tempo, Euro, American, African, Indian, Asian, Salsa. All from one instrument: an Istanbul transmitter." (The ads are seen here in their pure-picture state.) The photographs, shot in Istanbul, "are stylized, yet still editorial in nature," says Fields. "They convey the eclectic range of the Istanbul populace, from business people in suits to elderly women in burkas. To notch up the mish-moshed cultural spin, each shot also highlights a person or persons dressed in a wild mix of ethnic clothing - saris, Scottish kilts, Japanese sandals and so on, appropriate for a world music station - and some shots have an element of emotional drama as well. In one ad, a woman in burka and miniskirt is puffing away on a water-pipe in a smoking bar, traditionally a male sanctuary. In another, a young couple dressed in several different national styles of clothing are consoling each other as they stand on a busy street corner, mosques shaping the skyline behind them." This work, outrageous by Turkish ad standards, was not an easy sell, even for this enlightened client. "We of course pointed out that given the East/West dichotomy that is his country, he is likely to enjoy great quantities of free press, effectively doubling his advertising exposure," notes Fields.
