Burnley denied by Danny Batth as Wolves pinch a point at Turf Moor
Burnley were denied a seventh straight league win as Danny Batth headed home at the death to earn Wolves a 1-1 draw at Turf Moor.
Leaders Burnley looked set to open up a six-point lead at the top of the Sky Bet Championship when Sam Vokes netted his fourth goal in three games in the second half.
But in stoppage time Batth headed home substitute Nathan Byrne's corner for just his second goal of the season to give Wolves a point.
The first half at Turf Moor was goalless and uninspiring as Burnley dominated possession and created the bulk of the chances but could find no way through a resolute Wolves defence.
The Clarets went close early on when Andre Gray stretched but just could not reach a low cross from strike partner Vokes.
Wolves responded with Kortney Hause seeing a towering header blocked by Ben Mee after he met a tempting cross from Jed Wallace.
Experienced Clarets midfielder Joey Barton fluffed a decent chance midway through the half. He charged in to meet a loose ball after Matt Lowton's cross was only half-cleared, but blazed wildly over the top.
Lowton was the provider of another smart cross in the 35th minute. He found Vokes in the Wolves box, but the Clarets dangerman uncharacteristically volleyed over from close range.
Vokes also found space in the box a couple of minutes later, but could only steer a weak shot wide of Carl Ikeme's goal.
It was centre-back Mee who came to the Clarets' rescue again in the 35th minute when he was acrobatic in clearing George Saville's shot from a position almost on the line.
Jeremy Helan also saw an angled strike deflected into the side-netting as Wolves ended the first period positively.
The theme continued into the start of the second half, with Wolves opening purposefully.
Michal Zyro found space just inside the Burnley box, but saw his fierce shot blocked by Michael Keane.
At the other end the hosts hit back with Vokes scuffing a shot meekly wide after he had pounced on an error by Dominic Iorfa.
Back came Kenny Jackett's gutsy Wolves, and after a smart move down the left Wallace fired in an acrobatic volley which Tom Heaton saved well.
The woodwork saved Burnley just before the hour mark. Helan found Jack Price in the centre of the Clarets half, and he cracked a sweet shot against the foot of a post from 25 yards.
As the visitors continued to press, Conor Coady lashed a half-volley over the top from 15 yards.
Shortly after Wolves had seemingly run out of steam, Burnley broke the deadlock after 68 minutes.
And it was a routine strike from Vokes, rising highest to head home Barton's cross as he registered his 14th goal of the season.
Saville missed a great chance to level for Wolves with 10 minutes to go when he dragged a shot wide from 15 yards.
But with 90 minutes on the clock Batth made no mistake to deny the hosts another win, although Burnley are unbeaten in 15 games.

Last Saturday Neil and I had the absolute pleasure of visiting Ultrasound Dimensions and having a 3D gender scan on our fourth baby!
I don't know about other mums but for me, fourth time around and I was more nervous than ever before. I think the more pregnancies you have the more information you have also learned. With Google so easily accessible and so much information at our finger tips it can be a nerve wrecking experience getting your first scan.
Initially when we were invited to ultrasound dimensions for our scan I spoke to Monica on the phone. Immediately I felt her calmness and her experience even just over the phone. So I have to say I felt confident going to Monica to do our scan as I really felt she knew what she was doing and she has years of experience. One thing Monica said to me on the phone when we spoke for the first time was "Eyes only see what the brain already knows" and from that moment on I knew we'd be in very capable and experienced hands with Monica at Ultrasound Dimensions Blackrock. I feel like with all the places that offer private scans all you really want and need is somebody who is fully educated in this field and knows exactly what they are doing, talking about and also looking at when they see you little baby pop up on their screen.
Our apt was for 11 on a Sat and I didn't know how traffic or parking would pan out- already feeling anxious about the scan I didn't need finding a parking spot and being late another issue to worry about. But it is so easy to get to and there is loads of parking right out side on the Main Street where you don't have to pay or down one side street a 30 second walk where I think it was €1.50 for two hours parking. When we got there we were greeted by a very friendly receptionist and a calm and clean waiting area. I filled out my form before going in. Personal details and then if you wanted to also check measurements and weight which I ticked absolutely YES. This is a little extra but in my opinion totally worth it. There is also a priceless option in my opinion which is to also have everything out onto a USB key for you to keep- again this is a little extra but a fabulous touch and something you will have forever.
In Ireland for many people especially public patients, the first scan isn't until 20/21 weeks pregnant. A nerve wrecking time for any parent to be! I think before baby is moving and before you have really any other reassurance all is well, an early gender scan is a no brainier. For a little over €100 you can have the reassurance of seeing your baby and checking all the major bits are ok. For me, before feeling any big movements it was so nice to see baby rubbing her face and sucking her thumb and little smiles… And yes that's right I did say her… We found out it is another little GIRL.
A major thing Neil found from our experience with ultrasound dimensions was how warm and personal the experience was. Sometimes, in your maternity hospital it can feel very clinical and when doctors are talking facts and doing their checks, although understandably they're doing there job it can still feel very impersonal. With Monica she made us feel so at ease and like she genuinely loved what she was doing and cared about our scan as much as we did. Because let's be real, this scan, this moment (especially for us finding out the sex) is going to change our lives. This new little one is going out family and we will remember it forever.
If you are on the fence about a private scan or a 3D scan or a gender scan I would say GO for it!! I don't think you will ever regret seeing your baby in the womb. Or getting the reassurance that everything is ok in there! But my biggest advice is going to somebody experienced, somebody you will feel at ease with and somebody who you feel in your maternal instinct you can trust- and that is Monica at Ultrasound Dimensions in Blackrock. You will not be disappointed.
For more information or to book your own scan, check out Ultrasound Dimensions they offer so many different types of scans. One to suit any want or need you or your partner may have. Ask for Monica and dont forget to say I sent you 🙂
Thanks for reading,
If you want to see more of our scan and hear my views in person please watch our YouTube video down below..
Disclaimer- we were kindly invited to ultrasound dimensions to review their services but as ALWAYS my opinions are my own.

U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren paid a visit to Gloucester on Dec. 16, holding a Town Hall forum that drew about 800 people, filling the high school auditorium.
Warren stressed the need for both parties to work together. She was introduced by state Sen. Bruce Tarr, a Republican, and the event was moderated by state Rep. Ann-Margaret Ferrante, a Democrat.
Mayor Sefatia Romeo-Theken was on hand to welcome Warren and thank her for her support of the fishing industry.
Warren took questions from the crowd for about 90 minutes. Afterwards, constituents stood in long lines to "take selfies" with her.
Here are a few of the things Warren told the crowd during the Town Hall:
"We almost lost health care, but enough people around the country spoke up ... Enough that our government listened to us and 25 million people have access to health care."
"We don't get it right every time, but at least we know what we're trying to do."
"It is fundamentally unfair for young people to have to borrow money to go to college ... The government is making tens of billions of dollars in profits [on college loans] and who gets tax relief?"
Comparing government safety nets such as Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security to a boat: "We will try to build as strong a boat as we can and get us through the hardest times."
"I fundamentally believe most Americans are good and decent people. We have to get our government aligned with [decency]."
"I remember when voting was the ultimate non-partisan thing. You wanted everyone to vote." On voter fraud: "Show us the data. Don't make up that there is a problem" in order to keep people from voting. She noted that voter suppression, gerrymandering, and "telling people voting doesn't matter" are ways being used to stop people from voting.
On how her family survived after her father, a janitor, had a heart attack when she was 12 years old: "We lost our car (and almost our house) … Mom got a minimum wage job that could support a family of three."
"Here I am, a daughter of a janitor who ended up as a U.S. Senator."
"I'm in this fight because of 12-year-old me. …. If we don't do it better, then this country that we've inherited – it changes. ... I'm in this fight because I believe we can build something better for our children and grandchildren."
"America is ready for sensible gun rules. This country is being held up by the NRA."
"Children die every day from gun violence. If this were an epidemic … we'd be pouring every resource into how to stop it. We have to have the same kind of response to protect our children from gun violence as we would any other [threat to them]."

Suspect Government
When is a terror suspect not a terror suspect?
When the Home secretary decides that someone who has been held for 3 years is suddenly not a risk anymore.
Why? Because "weight of evidence at the current time did not justify his continued detention".
What? So it did yesterday? The day before? When was it justified?
OK, so one can feel sorry for the current holder of the post of Home Secretary, having taken over the mess left by "Mad Dog" David Blunkett. Maybe it did take this long to get around to reviewing the case of poor "Internee C". But what has this to say about the other people being held without charge?
How come, in a democracy, we have allowed ourselves to be scared into allowing this to happen in the first place?
Locking up dissenters in mental institutions is something reminiscent of the Stalinist era in the old Soviet Union. (If you are crazy enough to go against us, you must be insane, so we will treat you for mental illness).
As a defence, the UK government says that the evidence against these people is too sensitive to be brought out in court, so they have to bypass legal procedures. Would that be evidence from the intelligence community? Does the UK government think that any of us have any confidence in that kind of evidence any more (i.e WMD)?
Who is the next group of people the government would like to detain without charge or trial?
Your son? Your cousin? Immigrants? Peace activists? Homosexuals? Hunt supporters?
Remember, this practise did not work in Northern Ireland !!!!!

Given history, it'll plunge along with everything else next week, but that's not a bad start to 2015, with even the Vita TV selling 1,300 among that figure. The PS4 stronger sales helped take it above the million mark. For the end of 2014 figures and a spot of analysis, see here.
On the software side, Gundam Breaker 2 has passed the 100,000 mark but there's nothing new out as Japan was partying. I do wonder when Sony will start publishing PSN sales figures to help it look better in the chart.
Check the release list for major forthcoming Japanese games, with a new Atelier in January, God Eater in Feb and SAO Lost Song in March the early highlights. As Kotaku points out, the Vita has more games coming out for it than any other console in Spring.

John Clay: Despite loss, UK volleyball takes a step forward
With the score tied in a crucial stretch, the loud and plentiful crowd at Memorial Coliseum rose to its collective feet in a near-unified chant of "Go Big Blue, Go Big Blue."
Only this wasn't the Kentucky women's basketball team this particular slice of the Big Blue Nation was putting all its vocal cords behind.
This was the UK women's volleyball team.
OK, OK, so in the end the scoreboard read that top seed Texas defeated Craig Skinner's Wildcats 3-1 Friday in a Sweet 16 matchup of the NCAA Volleyball Tournament. And the bracket shows that it is the Longhorns who advanced to Saturday's regional final match against UCLA, which took out defending champion Penn State in Friday night's first match.
But truth be told, it was Kentucky volleyball that took a step forward.
"It was just an unbelievable atmosphere," said Skinner afterward of an announced crowd of 4,022.
This was an unbelievable volleyball regional, as well, what with three of the four schools having NCAA volleyball championships on their résumés. Penn State, winners of four straight titles under legendary coach Russ Rose, brought a young team that fell to an aggressive UCLA outfit in three sets in the first match.
Texas entered the second match as the nation's No. 1 team, the tournament's top seed and on a 16-game win streak.
The Longhorns had lost all of two sets in their last six matches. They had been pushed to five sets just once since Oct. 3.
And yet, Kentucky, a team that didn't even win its own division in the SEC, pushed the tournament favorites every serve, every kill and every dig of the way.
"This match could have gone either way," Texas Coach Jerritt Elliott said.
Why it went Texas' way may have been decided in that third set. Texas held a 24-21 lead, needing just one more point to take a commanding 2-1 lead. But four times Kentucky held off set points, finally tying the set at 24-24, then again at 25-25 before ultimately losing it at 27-25.
If that took anything out of Skinner's group, it didn't really show. In the climactic fourth set, neither team led by more than two points. Finally, at 25-23, Texas got the two-point lead that mattered.
"I knew there's no way this team is going to give up, absolutely no way," Skinner said. "As an athlete you need to be in the moment, and no team did it better than this group."
But then maybe this particular Friday night was volleyball's moment around here.
"They were really pumped up for the game and we knew their audience would be as well," Texas' Bailey Webster said.
"It was a fun game to play in," said Longhorns teammate Haley Eckerman. "I thought we did a really good job of sticking together in a crazy environment."
It was a fun match to watch, with incredible digs of rocket shots, amazing serves and overpowering kills.
"People saw a match that was about as high level of volleyball as you can play," Skinner said.
"A heavyweight fight," Elliott called it.
And the crowd responded with the sort of passion it normally reserves for hoops in this building.
"It was definitely the biggest crowd we've played in front of," said UK junior Christine Hartmann. "We lost the fourth game and they were still cheering for us because we had a great season. You can tell there are die-hard fans of UK volleyball."
"I can't thank this crowd enough for what they did for volleyball and our team and our program," Skinner said. "Sports is all about recruiting and and hopefully we recruited some new fans."

|31 July
Normally I wouldn't bother reviewing something that you have no possibility of seeing (it was a one-night-only thing), but this evening got me thinking about things like how short our generation's attention span is, and how strange it is that I've realized I'm more likely to commute from Brooklyn to Manhattan to see an unknown hour-long production than a three-hour one. Don't get me wrong, I love a good three-hour play (see my Death of a Salesman review), but there's nothing worse if twenty minutes in you realize it's destined to be a complete waste of your time. Anyway:
- There were 4 plays and I thoroughly enjoyed 3 of them.
- Common themes well-explored: dreams, war, what life must be like in a first-world country, death.
- Loved hearing the Spanish mixed with English. I don't speak Spanish, but I was usually able to figure out what was being said and the mixing was a pure audible treat.
- The second play, 'A White Night's Dream' was my favorite. In just a few lines, the two characters became real, relatable people. I loved how genuinely enthralled the male character was at hearing the progression of the female character's dream. And his harping obsession with Al Pacino. And the female's shortening of Peter Brook to just 'Brook', the visionary director. Wonderful job making me continuously ask the question 'and then what?'
- The final play (a monumental one-woman monologue) had excellent use of language that painted gorgeous visual images. Also great uses of sound.
- None of the endings really worked. Well, I liked the third play (which was a little too unrelentingly serious for me) retroactively lightening the whole ordeal by claiming 'aliens' as the explanation for the missing daughter that tore a family apart… but it seems I'm one of the few who did. The first play just petered out, the second play had kind of a strange death sequence that didn't resonate for me, and the fourth play should have ended about a minute before it did– on the excellent line 'I'm going home to make pudding for breakfast!'
- Interestingly enough, all the plays could have used some editing down. I think a lot of writers decide they're going to write a ten-minute play, then come up with a five-minute idea, then stretch it out to ten minutes.
- The first play didn't work for me at all. I didn't care about the characters, I didn't feel stakes, I wasn't rooting for anything to happen. Just awkward shit and sex jokes.

Two of Team Mad Macs-häzz members attempted the tough Jbay Windfarm ultra-marathon race. Max Sullivan came close on two previous occasions, while his team mate Declan Sidey had lady luck on his side during this year's event.
Unfinished business was the name of the day; my teammate Max Sullivan has a love-hate relationship with the event after two years of narrowly missing out on taking the win at the prestigious event. This year he was coming in in great shape and his right-hand man to pick up the slack in the case of any mishaps. Our plan was simple; make sure one of us wins. I have been struggling for form for a number of weeks; however, we knew all eyes would be on me and Max could use his good form to go clear, not the way it played out however.
In professional sport unanticipated misfortunes and disappointment are particularly common and as fortune would have it Max was coming into the event after a week of flu and antibiotics and holding onto nothing buthope on the start line, no pressure for the confidence
lacking teammate.
The extreme conditions and ultra-marathon distance of 85km meant we were in for a formidable day. Paris Basson, Andre Nelson, Jason Reid and Jason Peach smelt a rat early on after a relaxed start on the
initial lumps and on the main climb of the day just 10km in, the fight began. Max made a good call by telling me he was not feeling well, we quickly decided to change plans and I set off in pursuit of the early aggressor, Basson, as Max headed for an early shower to make sure he could fight again another day, racing sick is not masculine, it can be extremely detrimental to your wellbeing in the long term and emotions need to be omitted when in this position.
Subsequently 15km in I decided I should work hard for the great prize purse for winning the challenging event and I went on a solo 70km mission to the finish. This took me through stunning trails, relentless wind and two massive downpours. In the extremely slippery and muddy trails the chasers were coming into difficulty trying to close the gap. I was conservative and made sure not to make any blunders or damage my whip.
Easier said than done when feeling like a scampering house cat on a wooden floor. Getting to the finish at the coastal town was a big relief after a tricky final section and I knew after three long year's celebrations were in order as the trophy was finally coming home to Stellenbosch with Team Mad Macs p/b hazz.
To everyone who went out and completed the event a massive congrats, that was one of the tougher days
I have had on the bike – it had a proper Attakwas feel to it. If you ever get the chance to do the event I'd say jump at it, but don't let the route profile deceive you, next year I will have a smaller chain ring on at the front. Interpret that information as you please.

There are about 20,000 people and 8,000 families in Emilia-Romagna who have obtained Solidarity Income (Res) to help them through poverty. The Res, which started in September 2017, is a monthly financial contribution linked to a program of activation and social reintegration of beneficiaries. The regional council has allocated 33 million euros for 2018, and 35 million for 2019.
The University of Modena and Reggio Emilia has compiled a photograph of the Res in the first eight months of operation (September 2017-May 2018). There were more than 21,000 applications, or 625 a week, on a resident population of just fewer than 2 million people. Of these, the requests on which INPS is verifying the required requisites are over 12,700. Last May, there were 6,223 families admitted to the contribution to which are added 494 that take advantage of the national measures. Rejected applications hit 1,809, with a rejection rate for both contributions of 21%.
At the territorial level, in the province of Bologna there were 1,792 family units that have already obtained Res: Modena (896), Reggio Emilia (591), Ravenna (552), Ferrara (524), Parma (598), Rimini (496), Forlì-Cesena (514) and Piacenza (323). All the territories are therefore active and committed to the fight against absolute poverty. 45% of the applicants are nuclei composed of one person, and in 66% of cases without dependent children. The data concerning the working poor are significant: in 61% of cases in the family there is at least one person that works, even if in a precarious or underpaid way.
"This is a measure of civilization, which goes straight to the heart of those in need," underlines the president of the Region, Stefano Bonaccini. "In these years we have worked to leave no one behind, to combine growth with social cohesion. Now that the Solidarity Income is a reality, we have not only accompanied and largely anticipated the Government's commitment to the fight against inequality, but we are faced with a decisive and crucial fact for those families, and we think we will reach about 30,000 within a year, that in our region live everyday life grappling with difficulties that we must do everything to alleviate. This tool wants to give a concrete answer to those who are really in situations of hardship, encouraging at the same time job placement. Res, in fact, goes beyond the economic contribution because it commits those who receive it to make a 'pact' with us to regain autonomy and reintegrate into society. We are not facing the granting of a mere economic contribution," the President of the Region concludes, "but to an opportunity that must be given to those in need, to the real attempt not to leave anyone behind."
Vice president and councillor for Welfare, Elisabetta Gualmini, adds that, "After the enormous work carried out by everyone the new pillar of regional welfare has finally started: services and aid against inequality and absolute poverty. A radical change in the way of working and addressing the needs of the citizens who are bearing fruit; the questions continue to be many and we are doing everything to give answers to everyone in a reasonable time. It is a new and unexplored direction that will become a hallmark of the history of our region for the coming years."
There are two measures to combat poverty: the Sia, active throughout the country since September 2016, and the Res, wanted by the Region. Since Sia is aimed at a non-exhaustive audience of beneficiaries with respect to the characteristics of poverty phenomenon in Emilia-Romagna, the Region's choice has been to widen it from a universalist point of view, including the nuclei without minors or with disabled children.
A decision taken also to optimize the use of available national and regional resources: in fact the Solidarity Income is designed in such a way as to place on the national measures (Sia, and from next year Rei-Income for active inclusion) all beneficiaries attributable to this measure, so as not to 'overload' Res resources.
During the multi-year budget, the Legislative Assembly will be propose to extend it to 35 million a year for Res financing and also in 2020.
About half of the households hitherto admitted to the Solidarity Income is made up of one person and over two thirds (69%) have no minors. 14.2% have a minor, 11.9% two, and only 1.1% have more than four children. As for age, one-third of households have an applicant with at least 56 years and around 60% with more than 45 years.
It is women who ask for contributions more frequently (68.4%) provided for by the national measure (Sia) reserved for groups with minors, while for the Res applications these are requested by men (50.6%) and women (49.4 %) in similar percentages. Finally, to benefit from both contributions families mudt at least have one member working (61.5%), even if in a precarious or poorly paid way. The Res seems therefore able to reach many 'working poor,' ie poor people despite living in families in which income from work is present.
Poverty in Emilia-Romagna
There are 65,000 families (3.3% in Emilia-Romagna, 6% in Italy) below the absolute poverty line, ie they do not have sufficient income to meet essential needs: mostly people under 35 or between 35-49 years with dependent minors.
And according to Istat estimates re-elaborated by the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia, there are over 4,000 homelessness to be added to this overall figure.
Recipients of the measure are households with Isee (Indicator of the economic situation equivalent) of less than 3,000 euros and with residence in the region for at least 24 months. The duration of the benefit also increases from 12-18 months, after which it cannot be renewed until after six months, and only for one year.
In addition to the monthly economic component, which ranges between 80 euros for single people and 400 for families, Solidarity Income focuses on the social and labour insertion of the people who ask for it; in fact, it envisages personalized projects of activation and social and work inclusion, set up under the direction of Social Services and aimed at liberating oneself from the condition of poverty. Solidarity income lasts for a maximum of one year.
The duration of the benefit also increases from 12-18 months, after which it cannot be renewed until after six months, and only for one year. A person needs to be resident in Emilia-Romagna for at least 24 continuous months.
From June, the Res expanded its audience, increasing both the monthly amount and the duration of the contribution to supplement Rei, the income of national inclusion. The monthly contribution for a person goes from the current 80-110 euros – minimum guaranteed amount – up to a maximum of 352 euros for a group of 6 people; the units with Isee not exceeding 6,000 euros may request it, be required with an Isee not exceeding 6,000 euros per year, twice the previous 3,000 and a value of the real estate property, different from the dwelling house, not higher than 20,000 euros.

Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE or lupus) is an autoimmune condition that can involve the joints, organs, nervous system, and skin. Lupus occurs when your body's immune system is trying to defend itself from a potential hazard, such as a toxin, infection, or even food, but does not adequately differentiate between intruder (not-self) and that body (self). When this happens, the body mounts a seemingly protective attack on healthy, human tissues and thus the development of autoimmunity. Lupus is different from other autoimmune conditions in that it doesn't affect just one area of the body. The inflammatory attack brought about by lupus can cause systemic inflammation simultaneously. Lupus can be difficult to diagnose because symptoms can be very similar to other conditions, which is why lupus has earned the nick-name, "The Great Imitator."
Symptoms Include:
- Headaches
- Fatigue
- Fever
- Joint point/swelling
- Anemia
- Hair Loss
- Ulcers
- Edema
- Sensitivity to light
- Butterfly shaped rash across cheek and nose
- Raynaud's Disease
- Abnormal blood clotting
Nutritional Therapy Discussions Include:
- The importance of the gastrointestinal tract on the management of autoimmunity
- Ways to optimize your bacterial ratios in the GI tract
- Foods to help "heal and seal" the gut
- The role of stress on the body
- Therapeutic foods to incorporate
- Foods to avoid for symptoms relief
- Targeted nutritional supplementation

text: You know the expression "If you love something You know the expression "If you love something, set it free?" This really has nothing to do with that. It's just about things that come in sets - only in sets - and are not free. But are amazing! I've been using a pan mystery product from Benefit for months now that goes on like a dream to create a majorly refreshed eye with no annoying glimmer, and/or acts as an amazing base for eye shadow. It's sort of an ultra pale purple-pink that counteracts all evil, and it seems to have been designed by the makeup deities to work perfectly with the Real Techniques Deluxe Crease Brush, which is the dreamiest undereye and upper-eye base coat apply-er ever (also great for concealer). I just brush it all over the product and then apply over my lids, in the inner corners, and even under my eyes. Copiously. And it looks amazing. The above image is for dramatic purposes only, k? I finally got around to looking these up to share them with you and lo and behold: The pan is actually a product called Eye Bright that comes in a stick. But how could I use the brush with the stick?! Forget it. Get the pan version that comes in these (you can see it on the far right and far left) - both sets are awesome anyway. Peek-a-Bright-Eyes is that great all-you-need eye set for travel and the Perk-Up Artist concealer set is cool, assuming the main shade is the right one for your skin (it isn't for mine, boo). And the brush? It only comes in the Real Techniques Starter Kit! But that's OK, because the set is so cheap and the brushes are so good. It's worth it. I mean, if you love something … Does this: Eye brightener and base in the ideal (in my opinion) format + a great brush for application Is this: Benefit Eye Bright in pan form only available in the Peek-a-Bright-Eyes and Perk-Up Artist and Real Techniques Deluxe Crease Brush, only available in the Starter Kit Get this: AbovePrice: $32, $30, $17.99 respectively Image: via F Yeah Fashion Pics.

Ratings and Reviews
Fewer Fights! Amazing!
This app has single-handedly reduced the amount of fighting in my marriage by over 90%! As an INTJ guy with the emotional range and empathic abilities of a belt sander, this app has been amazing! It pops up a warning "Stormy days ahead," and I know it's time to stop being purely analytical, and engage in a softer and gentler kind of interaction with my wife. And while this type of behavior is entirely unnatural to me, and perhaps even artificial, doing so has dramatically improved my quality of life!
We've had remarkably poor timing with my wife being on her period during almost every fun/sexy vacation/weekend trip we've ever taken, including our honeymoon, regardless of which one of us plans it. Now I can look months in advance and pick dates to allow for maximum enjoyment for both of us!
Highly recommend this app for any guy who's looking to improve his relationship, or may struggle with understanding human emotions!
Good - but confusing
I was hoping to use the app to track and predict my irregular cycles. The amount of information you can input is awesome- basal body temp, mucus, etc. But it doesn't automatically calculate when your next period will be based off your previous ones you've tracked. You have to input your average cycle length yourself which I find really inconvenient and can be extremely inaccurate. I have to manually count how many days it has been between all of my periods and then add the total days, then divide the total by the number of periods to get the average. It would be so much more helpful if the app did this automatically. Another odd thing is that you can change the current day on the cycle view. Beyond just going back to yesterday to put in information, you can actually change the day to today being the 21st day in your cycle vs the 20th. So again this provides the opportunity for your data to be inaccurate. Other than that, the app is great. It doesn't crash, and it has an easy to use interface.
This app is really nice to work with
Before this app I struggled to keep up with my "time of the month" accurately. I would always be too early or unfortunately late😭. This app changes that drastically. Now I'm able to keep up with everything. Bonus the app is super cute. The circle is easy to keep up with therefore, your period is easier to track. I love it. I think this is the first app I've gotten where I can officially say it's simple and good to use. So for anyone that's looking for a good tracker, I suggest you get this one. It'll definitely be worth it.
Edit: I've been using the app for almost a year now. After a while of tweaking with it and changing things, it eventually becomes super accurate. So accurate to the point of being right about your first and last day. It's amazing.

The main thesis of this book, as stated at the very beginning, is that the massive rise in crime of recent decades, and the increasing appeal of law and order campaigns and philosophies are due to the same cause: the dominance of the neoliberal political economy since the 1970s.
With this premise-conclusion, Robert Reiner examines the effects of the current "revolution of the rich", which produces negative economic, ethical and sociopolitical consequences. These include harm associated with the formation of monopolies, growing inequality, egoism, short-termism, irresponsibility, poor health, violence, private affluence and public squalor. The spread of a culture whereby winning by any means is preferable to losing by the rules is said to imply huge consequences for crime at all levels of society. Meanwhile, with the politics of law and order leaving out many forms of crimes committed by corporations and states, the criminal justice system ends up processing, almost exclusively, a narrow range of offences perpetrated by the poor and the disadvantaged.
Reiner reviews a very large body of criminological literature, and his detailed arguments, along with the bibliography he offers, constitute in themselves an important source for students and researchers. He also examines how the development of the crime control complex, tougher sentencing and the growth of the prison population are leading to an authoritarian state. After noting that the fall in criminal victimisation since the 1990s did not produce a correspondent decline in the fear of crime, the author stresses that such fear is partly generated by widespread awareness that the causes of criminality remain largely intact. I would add that fear is also caused by the perception that inequality is increasing to such an extent that society acts as a collective portend: such increasing inequality is bound to bring more crime.
It is on this point that Reiner's book will perhaps raise some controversy, in that the author attributes the declining crime rates since the 1990s to lower degrees of inequality and to governments bringing "considerable benefits to the most vulnerable people in society". While statistical evidence on this issue is hard to collect, are we sure that such purported benefits will have any effect on individualism and insecurity inherent to consumer societies? Zygmunt Bauman, after working for many years on this subject, has concluded that individualism itself compels society to sacrifice collective security in the pursuit of individual liberty. Individualism and consumerism, in his view, are themselves the source of anxiety because of the inherently competitive nature of consumption. Can a slight reduction of inequality, or relative deprivation, change all this? To say it with Bauman, market seduction, which appears to be a great equaliser, is in fact a great divider, also because some (or many) are denied the legitimate means to satiate the desires thus created. In order to reduce crime, in brief, one is forced to start thinking about reducing the seductive strength of markets.
In truth, Reiner would perhaps endorse this statement, as he heavily relies on Robert Merton's notion of anomie. This notion revolves around tensions arising from unsatisfied aspirations, whose very nature varies according to culture, so that "the conceptions of what counts as success are possible sources of anomie". Hence Reiner's argument that "a materialistic culture is likely to generate aspirations that cannot be satisfied, particularly if emphasis is placed on monetary success". But if this strain, as he says, is also experienced by powerful actors such as corporations and state, why not explore, along with causations revolving around relative deprivation, aetiologies based on relative affluence?

There's been fish and chips sold together in Britain since the 1860s. The first mention of chips of potato being deep fried, if Wikipedia can be trusted, comes from A Tale Of Two Cities by Charles Dickens. The fried fish has been a Mediterranean classic which found its way to Britain. The development of the transport network during Victorian Britain meant the cod and haddock could make its way across the land.
The development of rail made it possible but it doesn't answer the question "why"? It is an extraordinary phenomenon when you think about it. There are no other similar national parallels – a hot takeaway food which is on every high street. When I was young I remember that you could get a pie or a sausage to go with your chips instead of fish. There was even curry sauce, mushy peas and beans. Pickled eggs, gherkins and pickled onions have been accompaniments as long as I can remember. As an aside, I've only ever had a pickled egg once. I can attest that they are truly the food of the Devil.
I am prepared to be shot down but I defy anyone to tell me that the taste of fish and chips is so extraordinary that taste alone explains the survival of this phenomenon. Add to this the undoubted unhealthiness in the current climate and their must be something else going on. There have been burger joints and pizza shops offering takeaway food which have come and gone despite their more distinctive flavours.
Today I went to the seaside with my daughter and my dog. There was never a doubt that we would have fish and chips for lunch. There was never any question that we would eat it outside in the cold, from the paper, with a wooden fork. Fish and chips is more than just the seaside though. There are plenty of inland 'seasides' with the tradition of eating Britain's favourite snack. Near where I live Matlock Bath is a British seafront, complete with arcades, in all but grid reference. There is something in the shared experience of eating fresh, basic, mouth-burningly hot fried food in the open air.
It's certainly not about the flavour or the cooking. Impoverished as we have been in Britain in culinary terms at various times in our history, we have always had plenty more tasty options. I think that the shared experience and the basic ingredients explain the popularity of it. Fish and chips are shared by rich and poor, city and urban dweller, young and old. It is egalitarian as the burger is on the more modern high street.
My fish and chips today was decidedly average. The chips were overcooked and the fish was neither cod nor haddock. The batter was quite cloying and stayed with me for some time later. So what? Fish and chips, in my 50 years at least, has never been inedible and I've seldom left anything but a few chips. Today I shared both fish and chips with my dog and sat chatting with my daughter while we ate. The wind was blowing and I've definitely had more comfortable restaurant seats.
It may not be the most tasty meal I'll have but it's uniquely British and eaten with good company.

SetFLY! A couple of days ago I was invited to participate in a training at the Reebok headquarters for a class called Jukari Fit to Fly. Reebok and Cirque du Soleil have combined their strengths to create this FUN and amazing workout. When I say fun, I really mean it. You are flying through the air, swinging, sweating, laughing, and performing all at the same time. The FUN element makes you forget about all the working you are really doing. Today, two days later, I am still sore. My lats, back, abs, and oh man my butt!
Mischa Barton (above) and Molly Sims (below) at the Jukari Fit to Fly Studio in LA
The FlySet is the first piece of fitness equipment to combine 360 degrees of movement with suspension. Not only is there a jump/fly series but there is also a mat strength series you can do using both the bar and the leg straps.
Here is a video from our training:
[youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T59ItqH4mW8&w=560&h=315] I really hope to see Jukari popping up in gyms. The only reason why I think gyms would hesitate is because the equipment is not the easiest to set up. There would need to be some overhead installation in order to get the suspension. I will keep you posted on the powerful future of Jukari!

I have been asked by several people for photos of my Spinning work from 2015. The certificate issued by Guild of Spinners Weavers & Dyers
January 2015 was when I began and submitted the work in the August of that year. It was great to do, the challenge and learning really helped me develop so much as a spinner and took me out of my comfort zone. (This is what I try to achieve at the Majacraft Retreats I put on ).
There are 15 boards altogether, I have added six here and will add some more at another stage.
I hope it encourages you in your spinning.

in plain english can you explain to me what happens here:
rs.Open "batchinfo", oConn, adOpenKeyset, adLockOptimistic, adCmdTable
what i need to do is to be able to insert values into a table called batchinfo. would this be the best way to do an OPEN?
the only thing i would be doing is inserting values.
I hope that this is going to help you.
dim sql, value
dim connection, rs
sql = "SELECT * FROM batchinfo"
value = "foo"
set connection = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
set rs = server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
connection.open "Provider=SQLOLEDB.1;Persist Security Info=True;Data Source=192.168.0.1;Initial Catalog=Northwind;User ID=userId;Password=1234"
rs.open sql, connection, 0, 3, 1
rs("fieldName1") = replace(value, "''", "'")
rs("fieldName2") = replace(value, "''", "'")
set rs = nothing
The use of adCmdTable typically results in ADO generating a
select * from thetable command that is executed by the OLE DB provider. If you update the resulting recordset, the provider (or actually ADO on top of it) typically generates statements of the form
update table set field = ?, ... WHERE .... The WHERE clause is the potential issue. If there is a primary key on the table, then the WHERE clause will include that primary key of the updated record and thus be fairly efficient in its execution. Since you are only inserting values, it should result in simple INSERT statements being generated and should be very efficient.
Note that if the provider supports it, then adCmdTableDirect will result in a direct table open, and updates will be extremely efficient. I don't know if MySQL supports that option; I don't think very many providers do support that.
rs is the RecordSet object. (A recordset is like an in-memory table) This line of code causes it to open the connection to the database and get the data, by calling the stored procedure named "batchinfo" or possibly just selecting all rows from a table or view named "batchinfo".
This method is fully documented here.
One option would be to open the recordset , update the values in the recordset in memory, and then call the Save() method. (See this link for examples and how to do it this way.)
However, this is NOT the most efficient way to update data. You're better off using an Update or Insert command

Our Ballard, Seattle, neighborhood is also full of dogs, and there are many dog owners in the condo. My favorite duo is the man around my age with a old basset hound. Always good for a little chat in the elevator and a pat for the dog.
I do feel sorry for city dogs, unless their owners can be with them full time.

The problem of excessive nightfall is highly debilitating and can frustrate a male. It can cause weakness in body and mind and also reproductive system and causes stress.In an adult male frequent occurrence of nocturnal emission is a sign of growing weakness. This problem needs immediate attention if there are other symptoms of weaknesses too like low libido, fatigue and irritability etc. Here you will get to know the best way to control nightfall in males along with its ill-effects.

Ravish Kumar is widely regarded as one of the best Hindi news anchor and reporters of India. His Prime Time show on NDTV has maintained respected number of viewership despite the fact that the overall TRP of NDTV is pathetic to say the least.
Ravish starts his show by making few minutes long speech on contemporary issues. He always try to criticize the BJP led government. If you think that being anti-establishment and criticizing the government of the day is the job of a journalist, then you may find it tough to digest that this same Ravish Kumar seldom criticized the insanely corrupts two consecutive UPA regimes. Further, he stays away from making sarcastic comments on non-BJP ruled state governments.
Ravish Kumar is also known for showing the courage to blank out television screen in protest of JNU episode.
Brajesh Pandey and Sex Racket
Ravish Kumar is from Motihari in Bihar. By caste, he is a Bhumihar. His full name is Ravish Kumar Pandey. However, he does not use the surname Pandey to give a communism colour of his name.
Brajesh Pandey is the elder brother of Ravish. He has used the connection of Ravish Kumar to get Congress ticket in the last Assembly Election. He is also quite influential because of the close relation Ravish shared with Nitish Kumar and Lalu Prasad Yadav along with many Congress and AAP leaders.
Now, this same Brajesh Kumar Pandey has turned out to be a pimp – Yes, a DALAL. The brother of Ravish Kumar is a dalal who runs a sex racket.
He is accused of raping a minor girl along with some of his friends. That minor girl is an SC.
The brother of Ravish Kumar is accused in a sexual molestation case against a minor SC/Dalit girl. I am repeating this sentence to remind you that had it been a case of some distantly related BJP leader, the media would have gone berserk now. Arvind Kejriwal and Rahul Gandhi would have visited the home of that minor dalit girl.
But, who cares!
Ravish Kumar is not going to black out his Prime Time screen. It may be time for you to black him out. Stop watching this moron who doesn't have courage to say a word against a pimp running high profile sex racket in Patna because the pimp is his own brother.

Insuring a car in Alberta is different than in other provinces in Canada. Under the Alberta Insurance Act, Alberta car insurance laws require you to purchase a mandatory amount of coverage. Additional insurance coverage can be purchased from a licensed insurance provider.
Mandatory Auto Insurance Coverage In Alberta
In Alberta, you must meet the minimum requirement for auto insurance :
- 200,000 in third-party liability insurance
- Any coverage above and beyond this is considered optional
- The majority (98%) of Alberta drivers are insured for at least $1,000,000

- Collision or Upset : Protection from damage caused by a collision by another car or object.
- Specified perils : Protect your vehicle from specific risks such as flood, fire, hail, or theft.

- Additional liability and accident benefits : You can increase your policy limits above the minimum level of coverage.
How Much Are Car Insurance Deductibles in Alberta?
All Alberta auto insurance policies have deductibles for comprehensive and collision coverage. You deductible amount will vary based on a number of factors – risks, insurer, your preferences. Most car insurance deductibles in Alberta range from $250 - $1000 or higher.
The higher you set your deductible amount, the more you can reduce your insurance premium. Choose an amount you are comfortable paying if you were to have to file a claim.
Who Can Drive My Car Under My Insurance In Alberta?
As long as you grant permission, any licensed driver can operate your vehicle. They will be covered under your policy. Your insurance policy is attached to your vehicle.
What Is The Grid Rating Program For Auto Insurance In Alberta?
The grid rating system was introduced by the Government of Alberta in 2004. It was created to regulate car insurance rates in the province. The system sets a maximum rate that is charged for basic coverage - mandatory third party liability and accident benefits coverage.
How Does The Grid Rating System Work?
Alberta insurance companies are required to compare a driver's car insurance premium (as determined by their fee system) to the driver's premium as calculated by the grid rating system. Insurers must charge the lesser premium of the two calculations.
Where a driver lands on the grid depends on many common factors – experience, driving record, driving school certification, age. As your driving record improves, your insurance rates will go down (you will move down the grid).
- The grid applies only to basic car insurance coverage premiums
- The vast majority of drivers (94%) do not pay grid premiums
- Drivers with little or no experience are often capped by the grid rate system
Learn more about the grid rate system on the Automobile Insurance Rate Board (AIRB) website.
Even with the premium grid, you should still get insurance quotes in Alberta to get the best car insurance rates for additional coverage.
