> Description | ||||
The Simpsons is set in the fictional United States town of Springfield. The Simpsons are very politically incorrect family. Homer, a safety inspector at the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant, is a generally well-meaning buffoon whose short attention span often draws him into outrageous schemes and adventures. His wife is Marge was once intelligent and sophisticated, but has come to conform with the stereotype of housewife/mother. They have three kids. The oldest is Bart, the 4th grade underachiever and nemesis to the principal at Springfield Elementary. His little sister, Lisa, the brainy and responsible 8 year old vegetarian, Buddhist, and jazz music fan who dreams of a better future. While Maggie, an eternal baby, rounds out the family.
And then there are their pets. Santa's Little Helper the dog and Snowball II the cat. Snowball I was run over and killed earlier in Simpsons history. In a later episode, Snowball II is killed, along with replacements Snowball III and Coltrane. Snowball IV survives and is renamed Snowball II to save money on dishes. The show also has a vast array of quirky supporting characters, including co-workers, teachers, family friends, extended relatives, and local celebrities. Many of these characters have developed a vast cult following of their own. Examples being: Springfield police chief Clancy Wiggum, Mayor Quimby, Principal Seymour Skinner of Springfield Elementary School, Reverend Lovejoy, Montgomery Burns, Waylon Smithers, and Ned Flanders. |

ASI Opens Convention in Medellin Colombia ____________________________________
August 18, 2016 | Medellin, Colombia | Libna Stevens/IAD
Inter-America's 15th Annual Adventist-laymen's Services and Industries (ASi) Convention opened last night encouraging its Adventist professionals, business owners and today's generation of creative professionals in the church move forward with the mission of the church.
Hundreds gathered at Colombia's Adventist University in Medellin, during the opening ceremony, which was streamed live online, and included government officials, church leaders and guest speakers, to set the tone of the four-day event.
"We want you to be 'Connected, Empowered and Transformed' as our theme says so that we can all be able to do greater work for God and those around us," said Dr. Marston Thomas, president of ASi Inter-America.
Thomas reported that ASi members across the Inter-American Division (IAD) have been busy in their localities engaged in the world church's Total Member Involvement initiative and IAD's Lord Transform Me projects.
"Many ASi-ers have conducted seminars, evangelistic campaigns and bible studies that have added many to the church," said Thomas. "We must commend those who have extended help to various communities, health projects and facilities to take care of the sick, feeding thousands and providing homes for the homeless."
Congresswoman from the Antioquía Department Ana Cristina Moreno Palacios welcomed the church and its ASi event to the city of Medellin. Moreno praised the visible work of the church in Medellin with 2.2 million people and included the 6.3 million people in the Antioquía Department.
"We acknowledge the work that the Adventist Church, its business owners, lawyers, institutions does for society," said Moreno. "Your institutions to defend liberties, to educate professionals with an emphasis on service, your church's healthy lifestyle, humanitarian and social work for the less fortunate, your work in strengthening families as the base of society in your communities, is very much appreciated."
Keynote speaker Dr. Conrad Duncan, vice president for administration for the church in the Florida Conference, highlighted the need for Adventist professionals to be connected by the only source of power found in God's Holy Spirit.
"We need to all be connected with Jesus Christ, work together connected with the church of God and its mission, and connected with those who are lost," Duncan said.
"It is not possible to be connected with God and overlook the church of God," said Duncan. "God is still leading His church and we should be connected with the church of God to ensure the mission get carried out in reaching the lost and prepare them for the soon coming of Christ."
Participants at this year's convention will get the opportunity to network, sit in on professional development and business management seminars, strengthen on-going projects and new projects to benefit the community.
The convention will also see Adventist lawyers join the event and take part in a forum to highlight, discuss and formulate solutions to contemporary issues and challenges affecting the Adventist Church today.
Dr. Thomas reported that during the convention, a new ASi President would be elected as well as a new board instated.

Craig Beattie could be on his way to Rangers this summer with reports suggesting manager Ally McCoist is keen on his services.
The 28-year old is out of contract at Heart of Midlothian and is set to move on with a move to Ibrox a possibility, dependent on which division the club will play in next season.
Rangers' newco lost a vote to stay in the Scottish Premier League and could drop down as a far as the Third Division which would more than likely scupper a deal for Beattie.
However, if 'Gers are put into the First Division then the former Celtic, West Bromwich Albion and Swansea City man may be joining ex-Hearts teammate Ian Black in Glasgow.

I run a music studio and wanted to update to the new apple operation system. I checked line 6's website for drivers and they had the updated drivers. When I try to record with my ux2 interface I get a lot of clicking and popping. It's not a bit rate issue because I've tried every bit rate and it still does it.
My computer specs are
3.1 ghz i7 quad core processor
16gb of ram
So I know I should be running it just perfectly.
Reverting to a back up is out of the question, tried it and my backup
Is corrupt.
I've contacted apple and line 6 and neither company can help me.
I Desperately need this to work soon. If anyone can help me out thanks

Black Moon Manor
By Teresa Williams, HPI Paranormal Investigator
Distributed by Paul Dale Roberts, HPI General Manager
July 9, 2010 was a great experience at the Black Moon Manor in Greenfield, Indiana. I�ve never been to Indiana before, and was very glad I had the opportunity to go.
Matt Speck and Jennifer are the perfect hosts for this investigation. They are very nice people who were skeptics before buying this place. They had their own experiences that would scare anyone out of restoring the place. Jennifer was scratched after a person visiting had been provoking the spirits there. She still has scars on her lower back to prove it. Matt had one time been pushed going up the stairs. They have had water bottle caps thrown at them, pennies also have been thrown at people. When you enter the mansion, you instantly feel the change in the air around you, and you feel you are not alone. You instantly feel tired and drained.
We arrived at the property at 7:00 pm. We were supposed to meet Matt and Jennifer at 6:00 pm, but we hadn�t counted on the fact of the time zone being an hour earlier, and they were so kind to understand our confusion. That left us an hour less of set up time, but we managed.
They gave us a tour of the mansion, and the cemetery, and the barn. The place had to have been gorgeous in it�s day. We discovered during the tour that it was a small pox hospital in the 1800�s over 200 people were brought there to die (mostly children). The home had no power to it, so we knew any readings couldn�t be false. The nearest residence was on the other side of a corn field that was quite far away from the location. Larry Eissler had begun setting up the equipment while I started to barbeque some hotdogs. Matt and Jennifer joined us and we sat and ate while they shared experiences and we shared some of ours. It was a great time.
While we were waiting to start, and working out the equipment issues, Larry started getting the feeling that someone was in the doorway of the home. When he took a picture of the doorway, He caught an incredible photo of a woman standing outside of the doorway looking at him. It gave us all a creepy feeling. Now it was harder to wait for the rest of the team!
We had waited long enough, and as we began, we were having equipment issues on everything electronic you could think of. We resolved the issues thanks to Larry and his knowledge of the equipment! While we waited for the rest of the investigators to arrive, we started to try to get EVP�s from the upstairs of the mansion. This house was creepy! We loved it! We had been about 40 minutes into the investigation when we were in the north bedroom, I had mentioned the names of the girl and the woman who were said to still be in the home, I asked �Martha or Caroline, if you are here, can you give us a sign�? Then a moment later, BANG! Right under the feet of Larry Eissler, who was doing the filming. It made him jump so high I thought he had a hang time of 15 seconds!
When the other members arrived at 11:00 pm, they had the same experiences that we had but with all their equipment. Larry and Marcos handled the issues and we were ready to continue. Marcos had volunteered to go to the basement and do an EVP session there. Larry assisted him in setting up down there. Once Marcos was alone, he began to feel a thickness in the air, even though the temperature was 66 degrees, and he was beginning to feel strange, he radioed up to the rest of us to come and assist him in helping to retrieve the equipment down there. Larry went and helped him, only to find Marcos was feeling weak, and was sweating profusely. Once out of the basement, Marcos began to feel himself again. He was ready to roll again after a few moments of recovery.
We alternated team members and attempted to get more evidence from the North bedroom. After analyzing my EVP�s from that night, I had gotten a male voice that said �Larry� that was quite clear. Had Larry heard it that night, I don�t know how he would have taken it. It really is a difference when you get an EVP of any kind, as opposed to getting one with your name personally. While inside, Larry was outside monitoring the video equipment.
He had called a friend of his who is a medium, and she had told Larry that a male spirit was focusing on him above all the people there that night. She had also told him that there were two female and one male spirit at the home. She said the male spirit was holding the females there and was keeping them from touching the trigger toys we had brought to the investigation. Also, this male spirit used to work at the mansion and was cruel to the children that were brought there. He was a molester and liked little boys, and he was also having sex with the dead bodies, and that there were dead bodies in the well. We had found there was a well that had a porch built around it, and at one time had a hinged wooden lid over it. We were told that so many people had passed here, that the south end of the home was altered into a funeral parlor, and the bodies were taken out a door (that is now sealed) and directly to the back yard cemetery.
We wondered if the sick spirit of the male employee was the one who was to dig the graves, had gotten tired of doing all the digging, just began to just dump the children down the well? The medium said there was a well, and there was� so I would have to believe she was on to something. Even though we all had good phone reception while there, Larry was the only one having dropped calls, and this was only while he had the medium on the phone, and this occurred 8 times.
Was the male spirit trying to keep Larry from getting this information? We had to wonder. We were informed by the owners that no one has been at the location past 4:00 am before. Why was this we wondered? We stayed until 8:00 am and tried to see if we could get anything during the morning hours. The activity through the night was great, but sadly we got nothing during the morning. We had personal experiences of being touched in the North bedroom by two investigators during an EVP session, but no where else in the home. A couple of cameras that were filming shook on their own, and focus went in and out occasionally. The toy doll and ball we brought were never moved.
All in all, this was a great experience, and a wonderful time had by everyone there. Thank you Black Moon Manor! Great hosts, ghosts, and a great place made for a great time. Anyone out that way in Greenfield, Indiana, this place is a must!

- I love Daisy Yellow's writing box. I have a small pencil case that I use to store my essential supplies in, but I'd love to have something a bit larger that I could take from room to room.
- iHanna is experimenting with watercolours, something that I'd like to get into more. These kinds of watercolours do intimidate me much more than the watercolour pencils that I'm used to, but I would like to try them out one day. I also love the muted green and grey colours that Hanna used.
- Millie's planner pages are awesome. They're so colourful, and I love her all of her little doodles and drawings. My planner pages are so boring. They're very functional and they work well for me, but they're not very interesting to look at. I don't think a DIY planner like mine would be ideal for this sort of thing. If I was going to make my planner look this nice, I think I would prefer a bound book because I would want to keep it afterwards. An idea for the future...
- Speaking of colourful, check out Azizah's review of the Rhodiarama notebook. I love the endpapers, and how the elastic closure is a contrasting colour to the notebook colour. While it seems strange to see a Rhodia notebook that is neither black nor orange, I really want to try one of these out.
- I think I might like this pen: the Pilot Razor Point II, as reviewed by Economy Pens.
- And here's a pen that I already know I like: the Marvy Le Pen, as reviewed by Ink of Me Fondly. And I love her colour selection.
- Here's a clever idea: tea tag tabs from DIYSara. I love collecting random bits of ephemera, although I've never collected tea tags (the tea I drink doesn't have tags), and it's great when that ephemera can be used in interesting and useful new projects.
- I've also been admiring Michelle's new portrait journal (more portraits here and here). I've been thinking of doing a month-long portrait challenge because they are something I'd like to get better at drawing. I just don't have time for all of my potential projects...
- And, finally, yet another review of the limited edition apple green Lamy Safari. I always enjoy Mary's reviews. They are clear and concise with great photos and a refreshing sense of humour. And of course I love the pen as well.

January Miscellany: Watercolours, Pens, and Portraits
A relatively long miscellany this month - as I sit in front of the computer trying to recover from the nasty cold that has attacked me this week...
As always, stay tuned for more posts and reviews coming up next month!
9 comments:
I use the same watercolors as iHanna - Winsor Newton half pans. They snap into the Winsor Newton Cotman 12 pan travel set I have. Very good, transparent colors and being able to swap out colors is very handy.
ReplyDeleteThank you Heather for including a mention of my portrait journal! I had tons of fun with it and it was quick to do (I completed the entire journal in a weekend)...I say go for it! It really doesn't take too much time (the point is to go fast and not fret too much about the results.) Hope you are feeling tip-top by now!

We have just been so busy. Joshua's chemo schedule is into a really rough part. He is in the hospital for a few days every two to three weeks. We go up to clinic for chemo every week and his blood and platelet counts have been really low so we're making unscheduled trips as well. After Adam decided to give Joshua a bop in the nose on Sunday, we headed to the hospital on Monday for some platelets and blood. The donor that Joshua got the platelets from wasn't the best of matches and for some reason, his body didn't accept all of them so his levels didn't go up to where we would like them. Jeff and I have been on bruise watch for the past few days. Try tell two three year olds and a five year not to wrestle. They're boys. It is their nature. Trying to get them to sit still and "play nice" is like trying to tell a bird not to fly. Doesn't work unless you break a leg or something and then well, we're back to that whole low on platelets thing.
So, besides the hospital and keeping the boys in line, there isn't much else going on. Well unless you count work for Jeff, trying to refinance the house, selling Yankee Candles for Relay for Life (if anyone is interested, see a team member), and trying to escape for an evening or two. As I said, we're busy.
I was able to escape last week for a day though. Thanks to my mom, I had a day to myself. For the first time in my life I went to a movie alone. It was the best movie I've ever seen. No, Bride Wars wasn't the best written, directed or acted movie. It was the fact that I went, sat, ate and had no one to bother me. If you've never went to a movie alone, try it. You'll enjoy every minute. At least I did. And the best part was that after the movie, Jeff met me and we went to dinner at the Chart House. That is one of my favorite restaurants in Annapolis. We usually only go on my birthday and our anniversary and since my birthday is this Friday, we decided it was close enough and enjoyed a wonderful dinner there.
But, as nice as my alone time was or the dinner with Jeff, it all must come to a end sometime. After a long day on Monday where we were stuck at Hopkins all day for blood and platelets, I finally walk through the door at about 6:30 completely exhausted. The boys had been playing and Adam, who is my little explorer, had decided to unzip the cover of his brand new bean bag. Inside is an insert that also has a zipper and that insert is filled with the little beans. Well, he didn't unzip the liner but in true Ami tradition, we got a defective liner. One part wasn't stitched correctly and you guessed right. Beans everywhere. Now if you have ever had a bean bag, you know all about how those little beans stick to everything. They are a complete mess. So here I am with Jeff's shop vac trying to suck up beans that are sticking to me, the floor, the vac and everything in between. It was anything but fun. So after a stern e-mail to Land of Nod, I am happy to report that we are getting a new insert with no questions asked.
And finally, some normal news from the Czorapinski's. Noah lost his second tooth this week. This time, he didn't throw it away. We're making progress!~

It's a shame you can't show the bead incident in video! I'd love to see that one! Just picturing it now cracks me up! I'm happy you got some alone time, you are right, it is nice isn't it? But then, when I'm all alone, then I'm too lonely. Weird isn't it? Happy Birthday coming up to you! I hope that it's a very Happy one. I hope things go well with Joshua's counts soon enough, and I'm glad that the bop in the nose wasn't too bad! Well, I guess you're right, can't stop them boys from being themselves! Chemo can't even do that can it? Although, helmets may be a good idea soon!

I attended a session at the American Academy of Allergy Asthma & Immunology conference in Philadelphia about food allergy and anaphylaxis led by the highly esteemed Dr. F. Estelle Simons of the University of Manitoba and the former president of the AAAAI.
Her portion of the seminar focused on epinephrine as the cornerstone of treatment for anaphylaxis. She emphasized that epinephrine is on the WHO's worldwide approved list of drugs because there is no alternative. However, epinephrine delivery is fraught with error on all levels of treatment: from doctors, nurses and hospitals to us, the consumers. Dr. Simons asserted that if there is any so-called failure of this treatment, it is usually because of human error.
Epinephrine Often Delivered Incorrectly
Some people don't use epinephrine when they should. Why? Sometimes they don't recognize the symptoms of anaphylaxis, as they can be very subjective.
Problem 1: Novel triggers -- According to a study conducted by Dr. Simmons and published in the Journal of Clinical Immunology in February 2006 (JACI), sometimes anaphylaxis happens in response to a novel trigger, i.e. a previously unrecognized trigger. Sometimes, "...an allergen might be novel in one population but not in another, depending on geographic location, age, and occupation, and the clinical importance of an allergen might increase over time (e.g., allergic reactions to sesame are increasing in the ''developed'' world)"... In this case, a patient might not know what to look for.
Problem 2: Missed Symptoms -- Even in hospitals, some doctors are only looking for symptoms of shock. Shock, as defined by the NIH, occurs when the body is not getting enough blood flow and includes symptoms such as rapid or weak pulse, fainting, light-headedness or dizziness. Another example: skin symptoms (itching, hives, redness, swelling) appear 80% to 90% of the time during anaphylaxis, but are often overlooked.
Problem 3: Previous mild occurrences -- Dr. Simons said, "Spontaneous recovery can happen from a mild anaphylactic response; the body has a way of fighting off a mild episode." Perhaps someone had a previously mild occurrence that went away without medication, so they believe medication is not necessary. On the contrary, everyone should still discuss their allergy action plan with their doctor and make sure they understand what to do for any form and any level of anaphylactic response.
Other Reasons Epinephrine May Not Seem To Work
The delivery devices (such as the EpiPen) need a design update. There is an inadequate range of doses for different ages, weights etc. and often the needle in the auto injector is either too low or too short.
For example, Dr. Simons presented an unrelated study that showed that the fat layer on many women's thigh muscles, the optimal auto-injection site, is thicker than previously believed. This fat layer is often thicker than the needle is long. This means that if a person is in an environment (restaurant, school, office, street) where they feel they can't remove their clothing, the needle in the current injector might not penetrate deep enough past their clothing and past the layer of thigh fat (in many women) to get into the muscle and deliver the lifesaving dose of epinephrine.
Additionally, doctors and laypeople often don't know how to administer the auto injector correctly. There have been several cases, especially with parents trying to inject children, when someone accidentally injected themselves, usually puncturing their own finger, thus needing a trip to the hospital for the damaged digit and the lost of the much-needed dose.
This goes to show that everyone needs practice on how to properly administer the auto injector. Also, as this medicine is labile (meaning that even with preservatives, it expires within a year and half of production), Dr. Simons suggested that people could use their outdated EpiPens to practice on an orange to get a feel of how to get the optimal medicine delivery in the quickest time, should you ever need to. However, MAKE SURE YOUR FINGERS ARE OUT OF THE WAY!
If you have been given a prescription for epinephrine but do not know how to use it, talk with your health care provider, go over the need for it, go over your allergy action plan and make sure that everyone in your household, school or office knows the plans and how to administer the medication.
The Future of Epinephrine Delivery
Future plans exist to increase the availability and usability of epinephrine. Teams are working on a sublingual tab, an easy-to-use red button on the auto injectors and oral inhalation and intranasal inhalation devices.
Dr. Simons main point was to stress that receiving a therapeutic dose of epinephrine quickly in response to any level of an allergic anaphylaxis can mean the difference between life and death.

All Davis Russel wanted to do on a sunny, tranquil day is visit his wife and daughter as a noon respite from his tough and demanding job as a police officer. However, as he and his partner, Leo Delgado, head off to Russel's apartment, their world and lives and everybody else's gets turned upside down, literally, in the new third-person shooter on the Xbox 360, Inversion.
Borrowing heavily from the Gears of War franchise for its style, substance and gameplay (including "roadie running") Inversion plays like a Gears of War game, with one signature difference: the Zero G "flying" and offensive abilities as well as the inversion of the gaming environment, twisting and turning it in a manner reminiscent of an M.C. Escher work.
However, with absolutely awkward transitioning from gameplay into ill-timed cutscene, a dark and deeply depressing story (with humongous plot holes throughout), especially the demoralizing ending that makes gamers feel as they just played through a single-player adventure of 12-15 hours for pretty much nothing, and barren online play, Inversion -- even with diverse gameplay and sometimes hot and heavy enjoyable gunplay -- is nothing more than a mediocre emulation of the Gears of War.
At the beginning of Inversion's single-player story, gamers get a quick introduction to the game's main enemies, the Lutadores, who have initiated a hostile invasion of a future world. And yes, those Lutadores have a striking resemblance to the bad guys in Gears of Wars. Gamers also start to get familiar with the "Zero G" gravitational anomalies that have terra firma and other debris floating in zero gravity. Racing home, Russel finds his wife dead and daughter missing. Apparently, the Lutadores are gathering the world's children, and Russel sets off to rescue his little girl. But that's where plot holes start to widen into Grand Canyon sized chasms.
Gamers never really find out why the children are taken by the Lutadores. Although it seems that the physically strong but cerebrally challenged Lutadores have gotten their highly advanced weaponry and gravity manipulation from a mechanized intelligence, exactly why they did get that weaponry "upgrade" (and later, why they are fighting not only the humans, but each other) is never really explained. How do Russel and Delgado survive nearly a month imprisoned, when the same treatment has driven other human captives insane? Why were they not used as slaves like the others? Why did the Lutadores give them Gravlinks in the mines and practically let them walk out the door to freedom? How could Russel and Delgado not be aware of one of the "big reveals" about where they call home? Why is the Lutadores home seemingly a destroyed version of Russel and Delgado's world? Why the hell would Delgado not tell Russel the truth in the very beginning instead of setting out on an impossible suicide mission (and saving everybody playing the game from a thoroughly depressing story conclusion)? So many questions with no obvious answers creates a confusing and confounding tale.
Making that vexing story worse is the absolute worst flow of gameplay-to-cutscenes I've seen in a long time. Just as gamers are in the heat of a fight, up pops a cutscene. There's such an uneven structuring of when there's in-game gameplay and gameplay-pausing cutscenes that it is rather easy to get completely annoyed.
But if gamers can ignore the plot failures, there is some entertaining gameplay in a diverse range of gaming environments against plenty of enemies, although most don't present too much of a challenge to defeat, even the level bosses, although the latter bosses deep in the game can be difficult.
Along the way, the two heroes Russel and Delgado will learn, through the implementation of the Gravlink, to manipulate objects with the "blue gravity" by grappling onto them and then using them as projectiles against enemies, or the "red gravity" to repel and shoot enemies with a gravity force. It also allows them both to "fly" in Zero G areas, which is overall generally problem-free, but more than once it took multiple attempts to touch down in the landing zone to get out of the Zero G field. But using the Gravlink and the other heavy-duty weaponry provides plenty of explosive and invigorating gunplay, especially with a highly combustible and destructible gaming environment. Inversion's fights and gameplay are similar to Gears of War, including its "roadie running" and taking-cover system, but Inversion certainly doesn't have the same graphical quality.
Online, Inversion has a good selection of maps that include usage of the Gravlink, and plenty of game modes to fight with and against other gamers. The huge problem I encountered, though, was a total lack of online Xbox Live gamers, finding a completely barren online landscape of available players no matter when during the day or night or week I attempted to play online. I'm not sure if that had anything to do with my connection, the game's servers, or if it's simply just that not many gamers have picked up a copy of Inversion, but I have no similar issues playing online with other recently released games.
As a third-person shooter, Inversion has some fun and long-lasting single-player gunplay (even if it does a huge amount of copycatting off of Gears of War). That's despite an utterly incomprehensible and confusing single-player story filled with too many plot holes along with a very sparse online presence to date.
– Lee Cieniawa
The Good:
‑ Using the Gravlink and the other heavy-duty weaponry provides plenty of explosive and invigorating third-person gunplay, especially with a highly combustible and destructible gaming environment
The Bad:
‑ Completely depressing single-player story with an absolutely disheartening ending
‑ Ridiculously awkward transitions throughout from gameplay to cutscenes
‑ While multiplayer maps use of Zero G and the variety of game modes are good, it's barren online with hardly any other players around to play in matches
Score: 6.5 / 10

Simple Marketing Techniques For Your Business!
Neil Miller 0 January 31, 2017 Techniques For Your BusinessHaving a definite idea of what you want your SEO services business to accomplish can make your job as the owner and primary manager much easier. You will run into several obstacles in order to reach the high goals you have set. Tips below should help you in succeeding and expanding your business.
Whether you own the search engine marketing services company or perhaps work there, you should interact with the public in a positive manner. Every potential customer you come in contact with should be left feeling like they are of value and comfortable in your SEO services business setting. One key of training new workers is coaching them to work with customers. Clients will get the message out about your SEO agency when they have had an excellent involvement with you, which is important in building up your business.
Every SEO services business that is viable should have a multitude of committed clients. Subsequent to being passed down for some eras, SEO agencys will for the most part have exceptionally content representatives that will stay faithful to the SEO agency for quite a long time to come. It only takes one miserable review to completely trash a search engine marketing services company's online reputation, and many business owners either do not realize this is true, or choose to ignore it. In order to minimize the negative impact of a low review on your business, there're a number of online character management tools available for access.
Research the fundamental laws affecting your SEO services business before you start it. Consult with a business law attorney if you lack the fundamental knowledge needed. A lot of fruitful SEO agencys have been harmed by expensive court cases. It will probably be very beneficial to have a solid relationship with an excellent business attorney should you ever find yourself facing a legal situation.
Outstanding customer service will encourage your customers to keep coming back to do SEO services business with your business. A sure way to drive them away is to implement constant change. Adding new services can be tricky, however, if you adhere to the high standards your customers have come to expect, they'll remain loyal. Your rivals that offer both great products and service will probably be the ones that should cause you the most hassle.
New customers will often look up businesses on several of the popular review sites before choosing to visit them. Approach several of your star customers and ask to provide feedback on your SEO services business. The best feedback to show is the kind that puts emphasis on your strengths and best products. Offering customers who leave feedback a reward, such as a special discount on their next purchase, will encourage others to share their opinions.

I basically said that I liked the original DejaVu as it is one of those easy products that both keeps the curl AND (capital letters) removes easily. Most people knowing their curl-keeping mascaras, either waterproof or Asian, will have their arsenal of removers ready-set-go in their beauty cupboards. Because how else would you remove the total stubbornness from your eyes that gladly keeps up your delicately crafted curl with the mechanic eyelash curler in the morning?
With this easy on-easy off formula of the original DejaVu compromised on volume. It lenghtened, but not as fabulous as Majolica Majorca lash Expander, or the combination of Kanebo Kate mascara-primer and some high end DiorShow or another mega plumper/lenghtener.
Then I used the Lash Knockout version and...tadaaa...I have more thickness.
Comparing brushes: thickness of the Collection 2000 Fake Lashes is similar to Dior DiorShow mascara
So it's one of those typical mid-size brushes you see in most mascara brands these days. Not those thin brushes aiming for lenght, or those comb-brushes. However, it is not of those scary, big (and sometimes not useful for defining) megabrushes either that almost seem to swamp lashes.
- more volumising/thickening than the original DejaVu Fiberwig. More thickening than Majolica Majorca Lash Expander Frame Plus (but that one is more lenghtening due to its fibers)
- Good thickening: not the superdrama as the combination Kanebo Kate eyelash primer/Dior Show, but the removal time is less too.
- apply carefully, as you can actually overplump in one stroke
- Washes off relatively easily with the right temperature of water (lukewarm to warm) in tiny flakes
- Most women probably still have to use some eyemakeup remover to remove the remains of the other eyemakeup (pencil/eyeshadow), but the stubborn rubbing to eyelashes is gone (ok, never do that...just hold the cotton pad gently with the remover to the eye and stroke delicately).
- jet-black colour: not really glossy but neither matte.
Season changes can make my eyes more sensitive, and sometimes even the most suitable-for-sensitive-eyes removers can be too much. Furthermore, the curl-holding mascaras I often use need the stronger bi-oily removers. To skip this step (or just around the eyes for other eye-makup) I can rely on DejaVu Knockout, without compromising on thickness. It keeps a defined, full and curly lash for the whole day until I rinse my eyes with lukewarm water. The price is not too expensive for around $16, although Sasa seems to be sold out again, I found it here and here.

The pilot (name withheld here for security reasons) was seriously injured according to the NTSB report, while other sources have reported the injuries as minor scrapes and bruises. The Bronco was destroyed. Another aircraft that took off before the OV-10 reported that the pilot had power problems with the right engine, proceeded to dump most of the chemicals, and said he was unable to feather the propeller and that he couldn't maintain altitude. He elected to eject, and the airplane burned and shed parts during impact upon rough terrain. The right engine separated from the airframe and the main wreckage came to rest about 3,000 feet from the initial impact point. The preliminary NTSB report is at |

I had to get all 3 of these as they are so gorgeous. I haven't had a chance to try them out though. I don't mind doing a little work in application if I can get a gorgeous mani that lasts as a result. I think I will try a corresponding base though as undies to help with the opacity some as I don't really want to use more than 2 coats.
ReplyDeleteGah! I swore after buying and trying Sour Apple and having so many formula issues with that polish that I would not purchase any more of these Sugar Coat polishes. However, the crazy polish addict inside of me is screaming "I WANT THIS COLLECTION!" Why must you do this to me Sally Hansen....
ReplyDeleteI wonder what a couple of coats of these would look like over darker colors. Royal Icing over navy blue? Pink Sprinkles over cranberry? Color me curious.
I just managed to get Sour Apple today, the only color I wanted from the first collection of Sugar Coats, but I guess I'll have to keep my eye out for these new colors too. Ouch, my aching wallet.
HEY G!!!!! BIG thing for Atlanta/Dunwoody residents: Walgreens at Chamblee Dunwoody RD has $1 Off coupons for ANY Sugar Coats AND they have the limited edition colors!! I don't know if all Walgreens have them but a $1 off is great, since they're $5.99 at Walgreens ^_^ They're under the nail polish remover, because there isn't a placard for them to sit in. Just look down and COUPONS! :D
ReplyDeleteI got a both Royal Icing and Pink Sprinkles and I'm glad I didn't see this review beforehand. I didn't have any such application problems. I wonder if it's just the method? I loaded up my brush and did quick, thicker coats with a light hand and it went on very smoothly for me. I can't remember if I needed 2 or 3 coats, but I didn't get huge bald patches. I did notice that it could clump, but that only happened on 1 of 10 fingers. I LOVE the color of Pink Sprinkles, it looks delicious to me, and I almost lost it when I saw Royal Icing, because it's like a texture Cinderella. Maybe these are just ones you need to practice with a little to make it work.

Cellulitis is a bacterial infection of the deeper layers of the skin, the dermis, and the subcutaneous tissue. In adults and children, cellulitis is most often caused by Streptococcus and Staphylococcus Aureus bacteria. Sometimes Haemophilus influenzae type B can cause cellulitis in children younger than 3, but this has become less common since we've been vaccinating against this bacteria. Knowing the type of bacteria that commonly cause cellulitis helps doctors determine the best antibiotic to treat the infection.

How Someone Gets Cellulitis

Bacteria are able to cause an infection if they can get into the skin through a break in the skin barrier. This can happen with cuts, scrapes, ulcers, and surgical wounds. Unfortunately, cellulitis can also develop in skin that appears perfectly normal. Repeated infections often happen in areas where there is damage to the blood or lymph vessels that circulate fluid throughout the body. This damage can be caused by prior cellulitis infections, surgical removal of lymph nodes, removal of veins for vein grafts somewhere else in the body, and radiation to the area.

Cellulitis Appearance

Before skin changes occur, someone with cellulitis can have a fever, chills, and fatigue. The skin infection is usually red, swollen, warm to the touch, and painful. It's often difficult to tell exactly where the border is between normal and infected skin. Red streaks coming out of the area and swollen lymph nodes can sometimes occur. Children often get cellulitis on the head and neck, and adults often get cellulitis on the arms or legs.

How Cellulitis Is Diagnosed

Cellulitis is usually diagnosed based on its typical appearance. Sometimes doctors check a blood count to see if the white blood cells are elevated, meaning the immune system is fighting off an infection. Many times we don't see an elevated white blood cell count even though the immune system is busy fighting the infection. In people who are very sick, blood cultures might be done to see if bacteria have gotten into the blood stream. A cellulitis infection doesn't have pus that could be cultured to see what bacteria are involved.

Sometimes a doctor might do an "aspirate" which involves injecting sterile fluid into the infected tissue and drawing it back out, hoping that some of the bacteria get washed into the fluid. This fluid is then cultured to see what bacteria grow. An aspirate is usually done in unusual situations where there is a high chance that the infection is caused by a different bacteria than expected.

Cellulitis Treatment

Cellulitis is treated with antibiotics. Most cellulitis infections require 10 days of an oral antibiotic. If the infection is on an arm or especially a leg, elevating the extremity often speeds healing. IV antibiotics might be used in more severe cases such as:

Cellulitis of the face

Someone who is seriously ill

Infections in people who are immunocompromised

Infections that didn't improve or got worse with oral antibiotics

Preventing Cellulitis

The best prevention of cellulitis is taking good care of any break in the skin. This can be done by:

Washing the wound daily with soap and water

Applying a topical antibiotic to the wound

Keeping it covered with a bandage to keep it clean

Changing the bandage every day or more often if the bandage gets dirty or wet

When to See the Doctor

It's time to have your doctor take a look if you're taking care of a wound as above and you notice that the wound is getting red, more painful, warm to the touch, or is draining. If you have diabetes, poor circulation, or are taking immune-suppressing medications, you should consider seeing your doctor as soon as you notice a wound. If not, you should go at the very first signs of infection. Don't try to wait it out and see if it will get better on its own.

Elbow Room Espresso
my god, hang on to your lens-less glasses frames people – Chatswood's gone hipster!
5 Senses coffee as well as pastries
and organic sourdough from Luxe Bakery, alongside housemade
muffins and other treats, Elbow Room is a recent addition to Chatswood's
(to-date, very ordinary) café scene located close to one of Westfield's
entrances. Run by friendly Korean staff, iced water automatically appears on
your table and the coffee menu refreshingly offers choices of different blends versus the
usual different styles of macchiato, flat white, caffe latte, etc.
had the Eggs Benedict twice now, both times with smoked salmon though there is
also the option of bacon. This is by far the tallest and most sexily-presented
Benedict I've had – 2 slices of toasted brioche layered with wilted spinach and
smoked salmon, topped with 2 perfectly-poached eggs and draped with creamy
Hollandaise all for $16.
tried the "Wild mushrooms, rosemary and poached eggs on sourdough toast" to
which he added a side of bacon. On the menu it doesn't sound like anything
spectacular but the selection of mushrooms including enoki and oyster varieties
impresses us. The bacon is grilled with prominent bar marks and is not at all
rarely order sweet breakfasts but couldn't go past the ricotta pancakes on one
of our visits, with its mention of "housemade honeycomb ice-cream". The
pancakes aren't as fluffy as at bills, but you receive a
generous serve of thick and fluffy pancakes topped with honeycomb ice-cream AND
a chunk of honeycomb. Sour cherries aren't usually my thing but are the perfect
contrast to all the honeycomb sweetness. Sadly, a seasonal change has meant
that these pancakes no longer on the menu – I say bring them back, please!
also had my eye on trying the brioche French toast with strawberries prior to
their menu change. This has now morphed into "French toast with grilled banana
on brioche" served with "house cinnamon ricotta & maple syrup". It's eggy
and it has berries and it's brioche and I don't even like banana but, damn,
it's really good.
this, from a café with a poky hole-in-the-wall kitchen. in an ultra-commercial
area in Chatswood. Who would have guessed?

the lucky winner:

Maccas ice cream cake! I remember in the old
days when having a birthday party at Maccas was the cool thing to do. The best
part of the party was of course the ice cream cake with all the colourful
sprinkles and rainbow flavours. I remember myself and all the kids would scream
and jump up and down with excitement when Ronald McDonald brought it out with
the sparklers and candles. When it was placed in front of me, all the kids
would try and blow the candles out before I did. I remember as I was standing
up to slap the kid who blew out my candles, I accidentally knocked over some
fries onto the cake. That was when I discovered the wonderful taste of ice
cream with fries which I still enjoy today.
Michelle, I have sent you an email notifying
you as the winner and a National Media representative will be contacting you
soon to arrange delivery of your tickets. The Husband has a soft spot for
Macca's soft-serve with fries so chose you as the winner! Congratulations, and
I hope you enjoy attending the show.
