Have you heard the term, "double cleansing"?
We are going to discuss the what's and why's of double cleansing. Double Cleansing is removing your makeup with a cleansing oil then using typically a foaming cleanser after the cleansing oil. Our skin is pretty amazing but it can't cleanse itself. An oil cleanser not only is the most effective at removing makeup but also all the other things your skin was exposed to, in addition to dead skin cells and extra oil. It's difficult for a gentle facial cleanser to do everything an oil cleanser does and also clean the face. These cleansers should not leave an oily residue once they are completely rinsed off. An oil cleanser is designed to clean.
If you are oily it might seem strange to apply an oil to become less oily. Think of it this way, oil attracts oil. A cleansing oil can control blackheads and breakouts. A cleansing oil actually goes into the pore and encapsulates the sebum for easy removal.
How to:
Pump or scoop the oil out and massage it onto your face. Slowly add water onto your face continuing to massage in upward/circular motions. As you add the water the oil will emulsify and turn milky looking. At that point it can be completely rinsed.
Follow with your cleanser. This can be your favorite cleanser. Typically, this is a foaming cleanser but it doesn't have to be.
Cleansing oils can be a liquid or a balm that turns into a liquid product. As it cleanses it turns into a milky texture.
My absolute favorite oil cleanser is by Shu Uemera. Here is the link for the Shu Uemura that I love and use. Shu Uemura has other cleansing oils to choose from as well. $42-$90
Other good oil cleanser choices:
Clinique Take the Day off Cleansing Balm-this cleanser is a solid but turns into an oil. $28.50
Bobbi Brown Cleansing Oil -starting at $15
Body Shop Cleansing Oil
I picked up the Garnier cleansing oil hoping to find a grocery store/drug store option but I felt that the Garnier had a lot of fragrance. If fragrances don't bother your skin this could be an option. I will continue to look for a less expensive option.
If you are not ready for an oil cleanser but are wanting to double cleanse, Micellar Water would be another option for you. Here is a link to one of the most popular Micellar Water.
The oil cleanser as the first step in a double cleansing ritual is the traditional way.

A revered book among secular conservatives in the new millennium, Mansfield's book is a defense of manhood.
Somehow, in so many successful books on manhood, Alexis de Tocqueville gets quoted a lot. This book is no exception. Tocqueville's work is a milestone in American History. You can't understand American history without reading Tocqueville.
At any rate, Mansfield takes a moderate stance saying that "manhood is fifty percent good and fifty percent bad" and that "it takes manhood to correct the trouble that it causes." Like a lot of rational books on manhood it cuts just short of venturing into the realm of good and evil. We don't like that manhood should be bad in any percentage. How is a man to walk through life if he is half bad and half good? Like a bi-polar or schizo? Sounds too stressful to me. Instead, we take it a bit further and say that manhood is an object of God's design and even personal character and therefore all good. When manhood causes trouble in the world it is not manhood that is the culprit but sin. Sin leads the man to use his manhood powers for evil and not good. While God and his redemptive power leads a man to use his manhood powers for good and not evil. God makes first mention of sin to a man, Cain:
"If you do well, will you not be accepted? And if you do not do well, sin is crouching at the door. Its desire is contrary to you, but you must rule over it." Gen. 4:7
It's desire is to get you to do what you're not made to do.
This book nonetheless is rational and reasonable, and well referenced with a great bibliography that takes the reader back to Plato and Aristotle (also frequently quoted individuals in successful books on manhood).

Chairman × And × Release (カイチョウ × ト × カイジョ, Kaichou × To × Kaijo) is the 146th episode of the Hunter × Hunter 2011 series. It first aired on September 10th, 2014.
Gon apologizes to Ging for failing to save Kite and his father instructs him to apologize to Kite himself instead, affirming that he will wait for him to return. Meanwhile, Killua seals Nanika away, to ensure that Alluka can live a normal life beside him.
Gon sees Ging for the first time after only seeing his photograph and calls out to him. Ging turns his head and only says yo. Gon then runs over to him and apologizes saying it was his fault Kite turned into a little girl. Ging responds he heard Kite was captured by the enemy. Gon explains he was with Kite who told him to run when Neferpitou showed up and made him lose an arm after which he was knocked out and then he trained and Shoot got Kite out of the Chimera Ants' nest but it wasn't Kite and they did horrible things and when he met Pitou again he was told that Kite was already dead. Ging, who is getting flustered, says he understands... not really, but he tells him to have a seat and calm down. Gon goes on saying it was because he insisted on having his way and that he should have died. Ging tells him that isn't true and that Kite took him along because he believed in him and that he told him to run because he underestimated the enemy and that if he didn't see Gon as capable he wouldn't have allowed him to accompany him. He says that it was Kite's own fault but that Gon is also at fault for being too weak. Ging tells Gon that he should feel responsible be certain to not make the same mistake again, and that he should apologize to Kite instead, though he notes that he isn't sure from Gon's words whether Kite is alive or dead. He then tells Gon that there is a rule when apologizing to a friend and ask if he knows it. Gon replies that he doesn't, and Ging tells Gon you promise to do things differently next time and keep that promise. Gon agrees, after which Ging tells him to go. Gon starts to leave, but however turns around before exiting the hall and asks if he could talk some more later. Ging responds that it might be difficult since he is a busy man.
This angers the crowd who shout that this is crap and that he is cold and that they know about Greed Island and that he never went to meet Gon after he cleared it. Ging tells them to shut up and that it is none of their business. The crowd continues shouting saying he should apologize to Gon and promise to be more like a father and that he doesn't have the right to be a father to which Ging shouts back they have to make up their minds and that they can screw themselves. The crowd says Leorio should punch him again. Ging tells them to shut up and proclaims he'll be waiting, but the crowd responds he should take him there. This angers Ging, who says he will fight them all.
Pyon then shouts to them all to calm down and Cheadle says the election isn't over yet while contemplating that she still hasn't given up and that a last chance has appeared, she then calls out to Gon but is interrupted by Pariston who tells him to go ahead and that due to circumstances no one can leave until the election is over and that even though they are in a hurry this is the last vote and that once they vote, they will be allowed to leave so to tell them his choice right now which everyone will accept as valid. The crowd applauds and Pariston asks Gon whom he thinks is more suited to become Chairman him or Leorio and that Netero is taking an extended vacation after defeating the Chimera Ant King. Cheadle wonders how he could say such a thing thinking that if Gon picks Leorio after his dramatic arrival that everybody may be swept up in the heat of the moment and vote for Leorio. Gon is surprised that Leorio is running for Chairman and Leorio tries to explain that stuff happened but Pariston interrupts calling for Gon telling him he can rely on his gut and be true to his heart and pick one of them. Gon thinks it over and picks Pariston who asks him if Leorio isn't his friend and if he shouldn't pick him to which Gon answers that Leorio wants to be a doctor and has no time to be a Chairman which Pariston happily agrees to. It annoys Cheadle who thinks she now has been completely defeated. Pariston thanks Gon and tells everybody to begin the vote, Leorio apologizes saying he is going with Gon and that his vote is going to Pariston too. Gon then tells Ging he is going to which Ging only replies with "yeah". This angers the crowd, who tell him to at least say "See you later" and asking where his common sense is. Ging becomes irritated again and he starts fighting people. Gon, who is walking away, laughs while saying Ging is popular in his own way. Ging, while strangling two audience members, calls out to him and tells him he was the one who taught Kite how to use Nen and that there is a crazy slot number that won't come out unless he is adamant about not dying So if he is still alive, that will be the reason why and that he never would consider dying in his place so he mustn't mess up his apology or Kite will smack him again. Gon understands and shouts he is off to which Ging responds he will be waiting. Gon smiles as he realizes his father said again.
The audience has been beaten up by Ging as Pariston announces the result of the 9th and final vote for the election of the 13th chairman which met all the conditions including the required 95%. Meaning that now there is a new Chairman. The turnout for the ninth vote was 615 Hunters out of 635. All of them made a valid vote which amounted to 96.8% of all hunters the remaining 20 Hunters were absentees. Leorio got 2nd place with 157 votes while Pariston becomes the Chairman with 458 votes which amounts to 72.1% of all possible votes. As the Chairman Pariston makes the announcement that he names Cheadle as his Vice-Chairman and that he resigns as Chairman. Which shocks the zodiacs and Ging remarks he didn't see this coming. Cheadle chases Pariston who is walking away saying he made fools of them to which he responds he didn't become Vice-Chairman so he could become Chairman, but he did it so he could hinder the Chairman and that when he said silly thing to him to tease him Netero always looked so happy and that he wanted to play more with him. He then recommends she changes the Hunter Exam and the Hunter Bylaws quickly and warns her that if the Hunter Association becomes dull under her leadership, he will get serious about toying with her.
Inside a cab Gon asks Leorio where Killua is to which he answers he doesn't know and can't contact him and that he was traveling looking for a way to save him and that he will come to see them once they can contact him. Gon tells him he needs to apologize to Killua, since he got confused while fighting the ants and said terrible things to him. Leorio apologizes too, which surprises Gon. He tells him he is sorry that he couldn't do anything when they were in trouble, which Gon doesn't understand. Illumi approaches the hospital parking lot building contemplating that the requests following a wish for a computer should be more severe then playing dead and a pat on the head. He kills the three guards and enters the building continuing his contemplation while making his way to Killua and Alluka thinking that when he heard Milluki's report that seemed the first thing that was off and when the two-choice wish resulted in a simple kiss on the cheek it demanded fingernails which is a far too heavy price. He assumes the fingernails were the price for the computer, since it would match the balance between requests and wishes seen previously. If his theory is correct, playing dead and the pat on the head weren't requests from Something (Nanika), which means that the two-choice wish didn't require a payment. For this there are two possibilities. One, the wish was simple enough as not to require Something's power, or two, because it wasn't a wish. Which still leaves an unresolved question: if the playing dead and pat on the head weren't requests from Something, they were requests from Alluka. Illumi reflects again on Killua's claims that Alluka calls him brother while Something calls him Killua and recalls that the requests to play dead were made to Brother. Something wasn't awake, so Killua shouldn't have been able to make the two-choice wish. However, Something did respond to the wish. The hint to solving this lies in Killua's wording when he made the two-choice wish: he wasn't asking, he was commanding. It makes sense that commanding would work differently then wishing and would not require a payment upon completion.
Having reached Killua he tells him that are his conclusions and asks what he thinks, saying he will get to the point. Illumi says that he is the one who can use Something's power effectively and safely for the Zoldyck Family, and that Alluka is no more then a spirit locked in a room forever. However, Illumi says that if he controls her with Killua at his side he can at least guarantee her freedom. Killua answers that he will protect Alluka, to which Illumi retorts he must learn his place. Killua then tells Something to wake up. Illumi then warns him this is his last chance to let him have Something, but Killua uses Something to send Illumi back home who then seconds later appears behind Milluki, Kikyo and Silva who were watching what was going on through Tsubone monocle. Illumi remarks that Alluka is invincible and that when Killua issues a command there is no worry about requests, which means that turning Killua into his puppet is worth any price. Killua tells Tsubone and Amane to leave them alone for a moment and says he will issue a command to Something if they don't. Something asks Killua to pat her head. Killua says she does this for him since she wants him to praise her and that he doesn't want to use her by issuing commands. Tsubone and Amane leave, while Something keeps calling out for Killua. He then tells her while she is asking for pat on the head that she can't come out anymore. Confused, she tells him she loves him. Killua tells her again she can't come out, she again repeats that she loves him. Growing upset, Killua says she must never come out again, which makes her cry as she agrees to it and disappears. Killua hugs Alluka, thinking she is free now, while apologizing to Something.
Alluka wakes up and calls out for her brother, then quickly becomes angry at him for making Something cry. She says Something is still hunched over crying and she demands him to apologize to her. She tells Killua that if he is nice to her he must be nice to Something too, starting to cry. Alluka shouts that if Killua that if he is going to protect her he must protect Something too, which shocks Killua. She then tells him that if he's mean to Something, she'll hate him, making Killua slap his face. He then thanks her saying he was still under Illumi's control but that everything is okay now asking if she can let Something come out. She then goes to sleep allowing Something (Nanika) to come out. Killua then tells her he is sorry and that he was wrong. He says that he was scared of Illumi and couldn't defy him, so he did what he said and hated it. When he realized Illumi might force her to do bad thing he got scared and that he for her sake lied to himself and said mean things to her. Killua apologizes again, and says that he will protect her and that they will always be together, that she doesn't have to listen to wishes from anybody else anymore and he will pat her on the head whenever she wants. He asks her to please come out again. She agrees and opens her eyes once more, and they both begin to cry. Killua asks if she can forgive him for being bad older brother, and she nods in tearful agreement. They hug each other and Something says she loves Killua. Kikyo tells Tsubone who was watching from around the corner that she has lifted the restriction on Killua and to tell Killua that, which she agrees to do. Just like Nanika and Killua, Tsubone is crying too.

With a strong, five-day debut Disney and Pixar's Coco joined the ranks of the many successful films Disney has launched over the Thanksgiving holiday weekend. Receiving high marks from critics and audiences alike, the film finished atop the weekend box office and is looking at solid returns throughout the holiday season. Additionally, WB and DC Comics' Justice League and Lionsgate's Wonder played mostly as expected as the three films contributed to a healthy helping of receipts at the holiday box office, outperforming the Thanksgiving three-day last year by ~4% with the top twelve combining for over $180 million.
With an estimated $49 million for the three-day weekend and $71.2 million for the five-day, Disney and Pixar's Coco delivered the fourth largest Thanksgiving weekend three- and five-day openings. As a result, Disney continues to own nine of the ten largest three and five-day openings over the Thanksgiving holiday with New Line's Four Christmases the only non Mouse House title remaining among the ranks.
Coco's domestic opening is a hair over the 2010 opening for Disney Animation's Tangled, which went on to gross over $200 million domestically. The question is whether Coco, a non-Disney princess title, can have the same longevity as a film like Tangled or even last year's Thanksgiving hit, Moana, which opened with $82 million over the holiday five-day and went on to gross nearly $250 million domestically and nearly $650 million worldwide.
Looking into that future, one great stat is the "A+" CinemaScore the film received from opening day audiences, which broke down 53% female and 55% of all moviegoers were 25 years or under. To continue the Tangled comparison, that film also received an "A+" and 61% of its opening weekend audience was female and 57% were under the age of 25. Next weekend will give us a strong indication as to how the film will play moving forward when you consider Tangled dipped 56% in its second weekend and Moana just 50%.
Internationally, Coco was already off to a great start before this weekend even began after becoming the highest grossing release ever in Mexico where it opened at the end of October. This weekend it added several other markets including China and Russia. Its China debut came in at an estimated $18.2 million over the three-day weekend making it the 2nd highest opening ever for a Pixar/Disney animated release, behind only Zootopia. For now the film's international cume stands at $82.2 million for a global tally topping $153 million.
Finishing in second place is WB and DC Comics' Justice League, which dropped almost 57% in its second weekend for an estimated $40.7 million three-day and a $59.6 million five-day. The film's domestic cume now stands at $171.5 million after ten days in release. Internationally it added an estimated $72.2 million from 66 markets where its cume topped $300 million for a global tally that currently stands at $481.3 million.
Lionsgate's Wonder finished in third place, dropping just 19% for an estimated $22.3 million three-day and a $32.2 million five-day as its domestic cume is now just shy of $70 million after just ten days in release.
Disney and Marvel's Thor: Ragnarok enjoyed a fourth place finish, dropping just 22.5% for an estimated $16.8 million three-day and a five-day that nearly reached $25 million. The film is now the tenth largest release within the Marvel Cinematic Universe with a domestic cume that now stands at $277.5 million. Additionally, Ragnarok added $11 million internationally this weekend for a global total is now up to over $790 million making it the seventh largest worldwide release in the MCU.
Paramount's Daddy's Home 2 rounded out the top five, bringing in an estimated $13.25 million over the three-day and $18.6 million for the five day as its domestic total now stands at $72.6 million. Internationally the film added 21 new markets where it brought in an estimated $13.8 million including a #1 opening in the UK with an estimated $6.3 million. At this time the comedy's international haul stands at $15 million for a global tally topping $87 million.
The strongest hold in the top ten among films that didn't expand over the weekend belongs to Fox's Murder on the Orient Express. The film dropped just 6% for an estimated $13 million three-day and nearly $19 million five-day weekend haul. The Agatha Christie adaptation's domestic cume is now just shy of $75 million while its international total added over $17 million this weekend bringing its overseas cume to $122.6 million an a global tally just shy of $200 million.
Elsewhere in the top ten, Sony's expansion of Roman J. Israel, Esq. outperformed expectations a bit, finishing in ninth place with an estimated $6.2 million over the five-day weekend. The film expanded on Wednesday after a four theater limited opening the previous weekend and received a "B" CinemaScore from audiences, which broke down 52% male vs. 48% female of which 77% were over the age of 25.
Rounding out the top ten was Fox Searchlight's Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri, which expanded into 614 theaters (+561) and brought in an estimated $4.4 million over the three-day and $5.85 million for the five-day. The performance just narrowly topped A24's Lady Bird, which just missed the top ten with an estimated $4 million for the three-day and $5.37 million for the five-day weekend from 791 theaters (+553).
In limited release, STX's The Man Who Invented Christmas debuted in 626 locations and brought in an estimated $1.3 million over the three-day and $1.8 million for the five-day holiday session.
Sony Classics debuted Call Me by Your Name on Friday where it brought in an estimated $404,874 from just four theaters for a healthy $101,219 per theater average.
And Focus released Darkest Hour on Wednesday in four theaters split evenly between New York and Los Angeles where it brought in an estimated $247,000 over the five-day frame. Current plans for expansion don't have the film reaching the top ten markets until December 8 as it will continue to play in New York and Los Angeles for the next couple weeks.
Next weekend doesn't see any new wide releases hitting theaters, though do be on the lookout for the limited releases of A24's The Disaster Artist, Fox Searchlight's The Shape of Water and Amazon Studios' release of Woody Allen's Wonder Wheel. All will be looking for strong performances as they hope to expand and play well through the holiday season.
You can check out all of this weekend's five-day estimated results right here and the three-day estimates here and we'll be updating our charts with weekend actuals on Monday afternoon.

This year's Martin Luther King, Jr. Day is particularly poignant.
Some argue protests in Ferguson, Mo. — and, subsequently, across the nation — have created a resurgence of the Civil Rights Movement in the United States. This rebirth has been electrifying — especially with an appropriately timed release of the Dr. King biopic Selma, which recounts the historic march from Selma, Alabama to Montgomery, the state's capital. The demonstration resulted in the Voting Rights Act of 1964. Not only has the film received critical acclaim (and *only* two Oscar nominations), but it has effortlessly connected the movement of today to that of the past.
For months, protesters have called for an end to police brutality and racist practices. But this isn't a new phenomenon; it has been going on for decades.
In The New York Times today, hidden on page A11, is an article noting this strong similarity in movements, particularly in Ferguson. Despite the NYTimes' changed structure to put "digital first," as noted in their leaked Innovation Report, this article does not differ much from its online counterpart.
Sure, there are a few links embedded in the story, and the photo's bigger with better quality, but otherwise, aside from its social media presence, not much is different.
But does it need special, and possibly unnecessary, additions online? I'm not entirely sure, especially as other mediums on the Times' website, like Upshot, are used for this purpose.
What could be added to the online story, however, is a reference to this Upshot data analysis of the continuous racial divide in America. This piece, published at the beginning of the Ferguson protests, gives the reader a host of charts and analysis of the racial differences. And it's still relevant: Upshot re-hashed the piece on their Twitter today.
Though charts can be printed, this piece gives the reader a non-traditional piece of journalism to look to. Each reader has a different learning style, and it appears visual data is on the rise in popularity.
"To become more of a digital-first newsroom, we have to look hard at our traditions and push ourselves in ways that make us uncomfortable," the Innovation Report reads (58).
Just as the revamped Civil Rights Movement has used mediums of social media to fit the modern era, so has The New York Times. However, despite a reworking of goals and ideologies, both journalism and social justice movements will have the basics of their founding: 700-word articles with little digital elements and non-violent protests advocating for change, respectively.

I remember when I was a man buried in the foliage of northern Minnesota, studying theatre and looking at some pictures a friend of mine had taken of Chicago. "Looks interesting," I said. Subtext: Yuuuuuck! It looks like a never ending maze of concrete, brick, and smoke stacks. Who in the world would want to live there? Let alone visit?
Five years later, there I was, traversing that very same maze of brick and concrete I had degraded on the shores of Lake Bemidji. I was living in Chicago.
I recently took a week long vacation out to the Pacific Northwest with my girlfriend Colleen. We ate many pounds of seafood and hiked around a few mountains. And I was lucky enough to visit some old friends in Portland. "How is living in Chicago?" they inquired exuberantly. "Great," I said, "But I no longer live in Chicago. I moved to Minneapolis in February."
I have been trying to write about my move from Chicago to Minneapolis for sometime; two months to be exact. But I couldn't it. I was stuck. I was trying to be too sentimental about it. Deeeeeeply sentimental, touching, and moving about my leaving Chicago. Trying to be sentimental about the city made of bricks and concrete. Trying to be sentimental about the city with broad shoulders, gritty ambition in it's heart, and hard-work mud under it's finger nails. I am a sentimental person, but Chicago is not a sentimental place. Living in Portland could be described a little like living in a world of fiction, with moss filled forests and snow peaked mountains encompassing your panorama. In that way, living in Chicago was like living in the facts of life.
No, not those Facts of Life.
There's a desire in me to fill you in on what I mean by this (the city of facts vs the city of fiction). But I'm afraid I don't have the words. I trust you can fill in the blanks.
I'll leave you with the most important and non-sentimental fact of all: Pickle spear, relish, tomatoes, onions, celery salt, sport peppers, mustard. That is what you put on a hot dog. And I swear if you put ketchup on my vienna beef sausage I will punch you in the dick. Farewell, Chicago. It's safe to say you've left your mark.
I love Chicago.

If some of these look familiar, it's because they're made at the same Thunder Bay, Ontario plant that trains in Miami, Montreal, Vancouver and Toronto are made in. Well, the Metrolink ones are at least.

Amazon.com (NASDAQ:AMZN) will report third-quarter results on Thursday night. These three key details will deserve your full attention in that report.
The financial results
Management's financial guidance pointed to net sales of roughly $32.2 billion, or 27% year-over-year growth. Operating income was given a wide open target range, and could land anywhere between $50 million and $650 million. In the year-ago period, operating income stopped at $406 million. These official targets are not always accurate, and Amazon seems to play lowball with its guidance figures. In the second quarter, for example, top-line sales were expected to increase by 27% year over year but the result was 31%. The operating income range was just as wide that time, and the final result landed some $400 million above the top end of even that milewide guidance range.
Cloud computing
The big growth story within Amazon these days is not related to the mainstay online retailing operations. The company is an early leader in the cloud computing game, showing both rampant growth and solid profits in the Amazon Web Services division (aka AWS).
In the second quarter, AWS revenue grew 58% year over year and accounted for 9.5% of Amazon's total revenue stream. That segment's operating income more than doubled to $718 million, eclipsing the North American retail division's $702 million in operating profit.
Expect AWS to lead the way in both sales growth and operating profit this time. Anything less would be a disappointment for the flourishing cloud computing operation.
How are the holidays shaping up?
Whatever Amazon did in the third quarter could be quickly forgotten if the fourth-quarter guidance targets point in a different direction. During the holidays, every retailer worth its salt wants to show off its best side. Amazon's fourth quarter always comes with the largest sales and cash flows of the year. The seasonal trends are as clear as day:
Therefore, Amazon's fourth-quarter guidance targets are likely to overshadow anything else in this report. Come Friday morning, Amazon's shares will likely move up if the guidance figures are impressive -- or down if management paints a pessimistic picture.
Long-term investors should care more deeply about the actual results, of course. But guidance targets still deserve some of your attention because they can drive stock price moves in the short term.

Juraj Timkovič, Jan Němčanský, Dalibor Cholevík, Petr Mašek; The new modified technique of the cryotherapy and laser photocoagulation of the retina under the visual control of RetCam 3 in newborns with high-risk prethreshold ROP. Invest. Ophthalmol. Vis. Sci. 2014;55(13):5925.

To describe a new modified technique for the treatment of ROP using the RetCam 3 digital imaging system - Camera-Assisted Laser photocoagulation and Cryotherapy of the Retina (CALCR)
From Nov 2011 to Oct 2013, 91 infants were diagnosed with ROP at the University Hospital Ostrava. The average postconceptional age (PCA) at the time of diagnosis was 35th week of PCA (median: 34th, SD +/- 2.22, range 30th-40th); the average birth weight was 1070g (median: 990g, SD +/- 357.53, range 460-2645g). All the ophthalmological interventions were performed in artificial mydriasis (phenylephrine hydrochloride 2.5% eye drops + tropicamide 0.5% eye drops) and using an eyelid retractor (K1-5401/K1-5677, Katena Products Inc, Denville, NJ, USA). According to the results and recommendations of the ETROP study, the avascular part of the retina of newborns with high-risk prethreshold ROP was treated with a trans-scleral diode laser (IQ 810, Iridex, Mountain View, CA, USA) or with cryotherapy (Cryomatic Cryo, Keeler Instruments Inc, Broomall, PA, USA) within 48-72 hours of the diagnosis being made. The intervention was performed under general anaesthesia under the direct visual control of the digital imaging system RetCam 3 (Clarity Medical Systems Inc, Pleasanton, CA, USA).
The CALCR technique was used in all 12 infants (24 eyes) diagnosed with high-risk prethreshold ROP. The average age of these infants at the time of the intervention was 38th week of PCA (median: 37.5th, SD +/- 3.24, range 34th-44th); the average birth weight was 818g (median: 860g, SD +/- 198.35, range 550-1250g). None of the infants had any complications during the CALCR procedure. In contrast to the traditional technique, CALCR offers many benefits: the image of the retina is real, magnified and not inverted, it shows details of the retina in a high-resolution, three-dimensional view, photo and video documentation is available. Therefore, the preoperative, peroperative and postoperative condition of the retina can be precisely evaluated and compared on a fully standardized basis.
CALCR is a safe and effective treatment technique. This procedure introduces greater accuracy when targeting the avascular part of retina, enables greater visualisation and treatment control and reduces the risk of unintended damage to surrounding healthy retinal tissue.

I adore Mike Rowe. I don't necessarily agree with all his politics, but his a fabulously intelligent man with a great sense of humor and an amazing ability to tell stories.
Well, he has a new podcast and I highly recommend it!

Here's the official description:
"All good stories have a twist, and all great storytellers are just a little twisted. Join Mike Rowe for a different take on the people and events that you thought you knew, from pop culture to politics, Hollywood to history… The Way I Heard It with Mike Rowe is a series of short mysteries for the curious mind with a short attention span."

Inventions I need now!
I love Silicon Valley. I remember when I first moved here, nearly 20 years ago, and saw all the buildings where the things I worked with were invented. I marveled at the Apple Building, which is very visible from the freeway. I remember seeing others, and wondering why more people weren't in awe. So, just the same way, I love reading local publications, such as Silicon Valley Biz Inc and San Jose Business Journal. It was a recent article in the Silicon Valley Biz Ink that caught my eye.
Apparently someone has invented something I would love to get my hands on, so to speak. Canesta has invented something called a virtual keyboard for cell phones. But this wasn't what the story was about (and unfortunately I can't buy it because they don't' sell to customers, but to the companies building the phone.) No, the article was about letting robots see in 3-D. OK, perhaps I have been out of the loop, but I haven't see any of these virtual keyboards out there, but I want one, now. I can't figure out how to type words in my cell phone, and certainly not send text massages. Yet, the article said that they didn't expect to penetrate more than 10 percent of the cell phone market, because people didn't like portable keyboards.
OK, I may be an idiot. There are some who think so, but portable keyboards take up space. I keep my cell phone in my pocket or purse, and there is no room for a portable keyboard of any size. But there is room for a virtual one. This one is projected on a flat surface, sees where your fingers hit the keys, and fills in the blanks, so to speak. No keyboard, to pack up and cary around. It's all stored in the cell phone.
So please, hurry and bring the phone out on the market. I think you will be surprised. Pleasantly surprised. I'll be first in line.

Woe be to the hapless, godless children of Florida's Orange County, one of the country's largest school districts, who will attend school Friday without the blessed guidance of Bibles after school officials cancelled a planned Religious Freedom Day rather than having to include Satanists, atheists and other sketchy types insisting their voices likewise be heard in the pesky name of equal treatment. Admitting that "things, frankly, got out of hand," beleaguered school officials chose to "postpone" the event while they work on revising their policies.
The mess began when the possible trolls of the Satanic Temple and atheists of the Freedom From Religion Foundation raised legal objections to an annual Bible handout by the evangelical World Changers. Both groups insisted their own materials would have to be included. For the Satanists, that meant a Satanic Children's Big Book of Activities that teaches kids about controversial concepts like "freedom," "justice" and "respect." The atheists offered anti-religious materials that included a pamphlet titled, "An X-Rated Book: Sex and Obscenity in the Bible," which shows a Bible sexually assaulting a woman trying to escape - all in all, they argue, "tame" compared to what's in the Bible.
When school officials announced the cancellation, outraged Christians quickly charged schools had "banned Bibles" and given the heathens "what they wanted...to get rid of religion (and make) the public school experience a completely secular experience, meaning God is not mentioned, God is not recognized and God is not incorporated in any way." The Bible, they argued, "will open somebody's heart, somebody's mind, and cause them to pursue answers."
In fact, nobody has banned anything or prevented anyone from seeking answers anywhere - except on public school grounds constitutionally declared separate from the church. Evangelicals, it's been suggested, should consult their sources. Galatians 6: 7-8: "Do not be deceived. God is not mocked, for whatever one sows, that will he also reap."

LJ-SEC: (ORIGINALLY POSTED BY gleef)
I know this case has been alluded to here before, but there have been some updates in the sad and strange case of the Carey family murders:
ATLANTA -- [November 2, 2005] A woman accused of helping her husband kill their daughter because they believed she was demonic has pleaded guilty to murder.
Valerie Carey, 29, has been sentenced to life in prison for the child's death at a downtown Atlanta motel last year. She's agreed to testify against her husband as part of a plea bargain. Investigators said Christopher Carey stabbed the child with a knife until it broke.
During the court proceeding, testimony indicated that the man and woman both suffered from dual psychosis, a condition in which they both believed and saw each other's delusions.
"We thought the rapture would take the four of us to heaven," a tearful Valerie Carey said to the judge during sentencing. "But I ended up in jail and a mental hospital. Everything I thought was real in my life proves to be false."
-- From WFTV, Channel 9, Central Florida
I'm posting this for a few reasons. First is I know some people here are interested in the Carey case.
Also, this case underscores how dangerous some of the teachings of Dominionist churches are, particularly spiritual warfare and the fight against evil.
Most importantly, I wanted to discuss the bizarre and troubling meeting of the ways of law, religion and psychiatry that this case presents. I'm especially concerned with the testimony diagnosing the couple as having a "Dual Psychosis". They were following the teachings of many churches throughout the country, probably including their church, although perhaps a bit more actively and literally than most other followers. The psychosis angle strkes me as a way to deflect attention away from the religious nature, the potentially organized religious nature, of this crime. Does anyone know which side offered that testimony?

Cultural Backlash: Weddings
I remember the days in the 80s: when male bands would sit within the women-only weddings, when the photographers were men, and the groom would come in to the women's wedding with half his neighborhood, all his diwania friends, and all his relatives, and anyone else in the men's wedding that wanted to come along.
Towards the late 80s and early 90s: the weddings became more segregated, with men coming in the women's wedding for limited periods. Women, if they wanted to dance, would cover up their bare shoulders with a shawl.
In the early to mid 2000's: if the groom comes in with his brothers, that is considered avant guard (the excuse being: the bride doesn't want to cover up or wear her hijab); the bride's father even ceased to show up (an old tradition says that the father of the bride should not come in to his daughter's wedding, was revived). If there happened to be a male band to come in for a short time, or if the groom is sitting and a girl or woman decides to dance, it was considered shameful, 3aib.
This year: Men are allowed back in, band members are there for longer periods, celebrity male singers are allowed in for longer, the father of the bride is a vital part of the wedding, the bride wants to dance, the groom is cheering her, and the dance floor is filled with frolicking women and girls.
Is it a backlash against the oppressive laws put into effect by parliament in the past few years (like segregating the sexes in universities)? Or have we become less of social hypocrites?

Gaslight Anthem – "Tumblin' Dice / She Loves You 7″"
Gaslight Anthem has gotten to be a really well-known band in the last few years. In the beginning, they were generally just known and loved by those that followed punk. They always draw the unavoidable Springsteen comparison (but slightly more puuunk). After signing to Sideonedummy Records and releasing "The '59 Sound", they got to the point where Springsteen even sang with them on stage. This 7″ is available on 4 different colors (vinyl matches the cover color). The artwork is beautifully screen printed and folds out to show the entire art piece.

Region's A&E departments beat national average in patient survey
PUBLISHED: 11:30 05 July 2017 | UPDATED: 14:59 05 July 2017
Archant Norfolk Photographic © 2011
All of the region's accident and emergency departments have beat the national average in the level of satisfaction from inpatients.
The data, collected by the Care Quality Commission (CQC) as part of their annual adult inpatient survey, showed the on average, nationally, patients scored A&E departments 8.35/10.
But in our region the Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital (NNUH), James Paget University Hospital (JPUH) in Gorleston and the Queen Elizabeth Hospital (QEH), in King's Lynn were all scored above this.
It was just one of 10 sections looked at in the survey, which included a total of 76 questions ranging from those on medication, to level of care, to hospital food.
To see the results for each section, scroll through the charts above.
The CQC's State of care in NHS acute hospitals: 2014 to 2016 report found that hospitals faced an unprecedented demand for urgent and emergency services in the winter of 2016/17, with a third of trusts issuing alerts in December 2016 warning that they needed urgent action to cope with the pressure of patient numbers.
Despite these challenges, the CQC found the majority of hospitals are providing good care and looking after patients well.
Associate director of patient experience Claire Roberts at QEH said: "We have worked hard to create a good experience for our patients and we are pleased to see this has been reflected in the results of the latest Inpatient Survey.
"We were pleased with the areas where we received very positive feedback on the experience patients have had and we intend to look at addressing the areas where there are opportunities for improvement."
Director of nursing at NNUH Emma McKay said: "Our staff work extremely hard to deliver the best possible patient care.
"We are always grateful to receive feedback from our patients which highlight any opportunities to further improve our care and to deliver the highest standards for our patients.
"We will continue to work hard to ensure standards of our delivery of care to the people of Norfolk are among the very highest in the country."
Deputy chief executive of JPUH Anna Hills said: "The national adult inpatient survey is seen as a useful benchmark, allowing trusts to see where performance has improved or areas where focus is needed for improvement.
"The results of this latest survey show that our hospital continues to perform strongly when patients are asked whether they feel well looked after by staff and how they rate their experience. We have a strong track record in these two important areas, which is underlined by the Care Quality Commission's 'Good' rating for the quality of services provided by our hospital."

Filed under: Just funny | Tags: devising, theatre, youth
In 2001 I was part of a totally devised piece of theatre. The characters, narrative even the staging was decided upon by the company. Costume was pulled together from the casts own wardrobes and second-hand shops. Every mistake and every success was ours and ours alone. It sounds like a fairly standard story for a theatre company taking it's first steps into the world of performance, except that I was 15 years old and my oldest colleague was only 17. We were the Theatre Royal Bath's Young People's Theatre. We met once a week under the guidance of a brave and nurturing leader who allowed us to fully explore what our limits were without censure.
To publicise the show we took to the streets of the city, my good friend Pete & I decided to choreograph a fight that would sprawl through the centre if Bath. We were encouraged in our efforts. Pete & I spent two hours fighting, he armed with a large walking stick, me with chopsticks. I repeatedly flung myself onto the becobbled streets, whilst Pete swung wildly at my head. It was fabulous fun and undeniably dangerous. Would we be allowed to do that now? I happen to know not.
I am now in the position of course leader for the Natural Theatre's Youth Theatre and we specialise in improvised street theatre. There is no way we could ever dream if letting two young people design a fight (with weapons) and let them take to the streets. Even when working in the relatively controlled environment of a stage fight choreographers must be used. Which is right and proper, my life would've dramatically altered had one of Pete's lungs removed an eye. But they didn't and it remains one of the most thrilling performance experiences of my acting career. I don't want to sound too much like disgruntled of Tunbridge Wells but maybe our never-ending quest for ultimate safety for our children is robbing them of some of the richness of life.
It should be noted that the show itself was self-indulgent, highly sexual, very silly and pretty crude. Exactly what you'd expect to find inside the minds of a group of teenagers.

So this week I've been a Natural. It's been amazing, myself and Hef were employed to help devise new pieces for the world famous Natural Theatre Company. For those of you who don't know the company they produce comic street theatre, but it's not busking. They aim to take a high street and make us look at it in a different light, often subverting the norm or 'normalizing' the surreal. It is a hugely visual company that frequently offers no explanation as to why they are doing what they are doing, it is enough that they are. When people ask me for my opinion of why we do it I always answer "To make people giggle or smile." there are some theories within the company about a grander mission of reclaiming public spaces as spaces for the public, but I like the smile on a stranger's face.
There will, I'm sure, but video and better images forthcoming but for now I will show you the piece I had a hand in creating. It's called pigeon poo and quite simply consists of people covered in bird shit walking through town nervously checking the sky for anymore bombardment. It is accompanied by the sounds of cooing and fluttering of wings. It was hugely effective on the streets of Bath yesterday as part of the launching of Bath Comedy Festival in which New Old Friends will be performing with Arthur Smith on Monday.

Myself and my beautiful lady are this week being employed by the wonderful Natural Theatre company, to take part in their devising week. Basically we're being paid to come up with silly things to do in the street, if it's not the best job in the world – its close. I've been asked to be a group co-ordinator which is something of an honour, it just means that I have to prod and guide my group so as to make sure that we get a piece out on time. I wont tell you too much of the ideas and things we've come up with until Friday whereupon I may well post videos or photos or something. It's all very exciting and interesting stuff, I'm in charge of the more 'arty' end of the spectrum which isn't my forte but its fine. Hef is in a more traditional 'talky' thing and has had one of her initial ideas taken on and developed into one of the performance pieces which is excellent as she has currently logged 2 days of Natural work, including today.

When people say this they are referring to a person's basal metabolic rate (BMR) – this is the energy burnt when we are at rest just to keep our bodies functioning. In actual fact statistically speaking the chance of two people having drastically different metabolic rates to one another is 0.5% - most of us will only have variations in our metabolic rate

After the Civil War
ended newly free African American men
began searching for a place they could
earn a living with dignity and respect,
two attributes that were in short supply
for African Americans in September 21,
1866 when the first all black regiments of
the peacetime army were formed at Fort
Leavenworth, Kansas. They were the 10th
Cavalry, 9th Cavalry 24th Infantry, and
25th Infantry regiments. Their main
purpose was to protect America's frontier
from Indians.
Companies of all four
regiments served at Fort Concho from 1869
to 1885. The 10th Cavalry had its
headquarters at Fort Concho from 1875
to1882. Over Fort Concho's 22-year active
history, the Buffalo Soldiers represented
half of the soldiers stationed at the
Officially they were
referred to as the "Negro Cavalry" but
earned the nickname by which they are best
known, "Buffalo Soldiers," from the Native
American tribes they fought in the Indian
Wars.. Their Indian foes respected the
bravery of these soldiers and likened it
to a buffalo who continues to fight even
when gravely wounded. They also saw a
similarity of the African American hair
style to the buffalo's tightly curled fur.
On April 17, 1875, the
9th and 10th Cavalries headquarters were
transferred to Fort Concho, Texas. They
had already been quartered at Fort Concho
since May 1873. From 1873 through 1885,
Fort Concho was home base to 9th Cavalry
companies A–F, K, and M, 10th Cavalry
companies A, D–G, I, L, and M, 24th
Infantry companies D–G, and K, and 25th
Infantry companies G and K.
Fort Concho closed down
in 1889. Today it is the best preserved
frontier fort west of the Mississippi and
a wonderful place to get an accurate
picture of the life of a Buffalo Soldier.
The fort became a National Historic
Landmark in 1961 and is a living historic
museum owned and operated by the City of
San Angelo, Texas. There are 23 buildings
total on site but only about 10 buildings
are of interest to the public: Barracks #1
now the Visitors Center with videos and
some exhibits, Soldiers Barracks #2 is
filled with wagons and guns, Soldiers
Barrack #5 is recreated as it was in the
fort's active years. a mess hall behind, Headquarters
Building, two Officers Quarters, Living
History Stable, the hospital now the
Robert Woods Johnson Museum of Frontier
Medicine and
the Chapel Schoolhouse. One
officers quarters bldg is now a bed and
The Visitors Center is
the best place to start whether you chose
a guided or self-guided tour.
We took a guided tour
with Bob Bluthardt, Fort Concho Museum
director, who explained the purpose of the
fort. "Think of this as Homeland Security
of its day. Forts in the West did not have
walls. They were basically a police
department but served a variety of other
Bob showed us through
the places the soldiers lived, worked,
learned and were treated when ill. He
told us regarding the Buffalo Soldiers,
"They were treated no different from any
others. They were fed, outfitted and paid
the same as white soldiers. Although there
is documentary evidence of racism in
discipline and in some treatments by
soldiers. The Buffalo Soldiers had higher
reenlistment rates, lower disciplining
rates, and higher rates of achievement.
Many made the army a career. They had
basic benefits they could not get any
other place in life at that time."
Stepping into the
barracks, Bob pointed out what the soldier
had "a cot, a field box, some pegs and a
couple of sets of clothes that were
uncomfortable, scratchy and hot."
To the rear, we visited
the mess hall. Each barrack had its own
mess hall. Not unlike today, many men
didn't know how to cook so the sergeant
usually picked one man to do the cooking.
The benefit for the cook was he was
relieved of guard duty, latrine duty, and
other unpleasant tasks.
The hospital is a high
spot for its glimpse of the ailments
common in that time. Typhoid, fevers, lots
of stomach ailment, mule kicks, gunshot
wounds, knife cuts were all common. TB
was prominent Accidental drowning was the
most common cause of death then. There was
no water control and no advance warning of
floods or storms.
The toilet facility,
called an "Earth Closet," was a very
primitive arrangement. The beds were the
same as the ones in the barracks. Being
sick in that era was a dangerous
The chapel was one of
the later buildings and doubles a
schoolroom. Ironically, the chaplain was
in charge of the bakery. He was also in
charge of education. It was only by the
1880s that soldiers were required to read
and write. The army assigned a chaplain to
the Buffalo Soldiers' regiments rather
than just to the base in an effort to
improve education rates among the
soldiers. That way, the chaplain moved
with the regiment when they were sent
The Officers Quarters
were far nicer than the enlisted men's
barracks. Furnishings were similar to a
upper middle class home of the era.
As might be expected
the old fort has its share of ghostly
tales. One involves the Buffalo soldiers
of the 10th
Cavalry, the most famous of the Buffalo
Soldier units, which was stationed here
from 1879 to 1882. Their commander Colonel
Grierson had a young daughter, Edith, who
loved to play jacks. Edith died in 1879 of
typhoid fever in the upstairs bedroom of
Officers Quarters One when she was only 12
years of age. Visitors have often seen a
little girl playing jacks. The room turns
suddenly cold when she appears. She
usually turns and smiles then resumes her
Another tale relates to
another of the famous commanders at Fort
Concho, Colonel Ranald S. Mackenzie. His
is reported in his former home at the
center of Officers Row. Staff
and visitors have heard someone cracking
their knuckles, a well know of habit of
The fort is well worth
a visit whatever you reason. But the
Buffalo soldiers have earned their place
of honor here. Thirteen enlisted men and
six officers from these four regiments
earned the Medal of Honor during the
Indian Wars. This year celebrates the 150th
anniversary of the Buffalo Soldiers who
pushed the frontiers of both their country
and of prejudice long before the works
"Civil Rights" were coined.

Thank you guys so much for your kind comments on my last post - my life certainly is a roller coaster at the moment and it means a lot that you all are holding on for the ride. Yesterday I had a mini-freakout at my computer while working on an assignment and actually started feeling tight in the chest... I obviously don't handle anxiety as well as I thought. Casting my mind back, the last time my life was this full on I was a smoker - it was definitely a crutch. I'd never smoke again but part of me wishes I could get the calm without the cancer stick.
The tension helped me knock a couple of assignments on the head yesterday which has taken a bit of the pressure off. I emailed one of the schools I applied to, asking a question that I hadn't thought of when I met them a wee while back. I found out in the reply that they took that as my interview, they had short-listed me and were checking references before making a decision. I'm hoping upon hope that I get this job - the job market is so tight right now. I'm going out next Friday with some friends to celebrate the end of my studies and it would make my day to be able to celebrate having a job for next year as well.
It's funny how quickly this time flies... and how we want it to be over. A wise friend told me yesterday "Don't wish this time away. You'll find yourself where you thought you wanted to be, longing for the past you can no longer have". So I'm embracing this hectic time of life and trying to stop and smell the roses. Have any of you Scribblettes had experience with anxiety? Do you have ideas of how to fix it or are you in favour of riding it out?

Making choices with your money can be both challenging and rewarding. Absolutely I am an advocate for having YOUR financial house in order before you assist someone else. Sometimes the things we do at home reach farther than we realize.
My son, Kaden, is 8 years old. Please check out his video.
He amazes me with his heart for others and his willingness to save some of his Christmas and birthday money to do something like this. He understands that some of every check he gets for holidays needs to go to savings, but then he steps it up and puts some towards a project like this. All of his allowance for the past months has gone towards this project. To date he has saved $248.60…and on top of that, today he raised $41 in the course of 5 minutes! So, counting those $41 in donations, plus what he's received in the past hour from his GoFundMe account (http://www.gofundme.com/KadenFoodBank), Kaden has raised $309.60!
Yes, we have to balance out our budgets, yes, needs come before wants, yes savings comes before play. Please remember, too, that whether you do something like this, or you donate to your church or United Way or some other non-profit organization, your dollars can have a positive impact on more than just you.

Hey Dolls!
I was thinking, and I decided to write about how to make a statement. Every girl should have a statement necklace, pair of shoes, or even a statement scarf. I'm here to help you fit these occasional gems into your wardrobe.
Everyone has that one, plain necklace they can't live without, which goes with every outfit you've ever worn. But for a night out, a statement necklace can be just the right thing for you. Having a statement necklace won't only enhance your outfit, it will also help with your confidence. Big diamonds, colorful flowers, long necklaces sprinkled with sparkles, the list goes on and on! Trust me, this one piece of jewelry is something you can't live without. Not only does it add that vital dash of importance in your look, but it makes you look like you spent time thinking about your outfit.
Every outfit needs some matching shoes. A little black dress is almost asking for some bejeweled shoes and a big flowery necklace! Statement shoes are more of a subtle proclamation, compared to statement necklaces, unless of course, you are Dorothy from The Wizard of Oz. There are so many options with shoes! You could wear the same outfit with different shoes, and feel like a completely different person. This opportunity is one that cannot be forgotten!
I know you are probably thinking I'm crazy, saying that there is such a thing as a statement scarf. Surprise! There is! Now that fall is creeping up on us, it is the perfect time to experiment with this upcoming trend. Scarves with different animal prints, stripes, crazy colors, or even solid colors, will add that glam to your once boring outfit.
Remember Dolls, experimentation is key! You never know until you try! Please like and comment to give me feedback on my recent blogs! Be nice to people!
