Nutrafol is a non-drug supplement for thinning hair in men and women. Millions of men and women across the U.S. are experiencing hair loss—and for quite a few different reasons. For some of us, it happens because of hormones. Perhaps we just gave birth, or maybe we are in menopause. For others, hair loss occurs because of a stressful lifestyle that just never lets up. All of us age eventually. Thinning hair is part of the natural aging process for both men and women. However, just because hair loss is "natural," doesn't mean we have to accept it.
Nutafol is one of the best products on the market today for hair loss. Nutrafol was started by an actor, a doctor, and a scientist who were all experiencing hair loss. They became convinced that there wasn't a product on the market that worked without side effects, so they developed Nutrafol. They believe that hair wellness come from the inside out. A person's overall wellness can impact their hair. That is why this product attacks the underlying causes of thinning hair, not just the symptom. Nutrafol developers also believe that by creating the healthiest environment possible for hair follicles will encourage hair to grow.
Facts about Nutrafol:
- Nutrafol is completely natural and is not a drug. Therefore, it has no negative side effects like the sexual dysfunction other drugs can cause. "No side effects" may sound surprising to you. Doesn't everything have side effects? Aren't they usually negative? For Nutrafol, the reported side effects are overwhelmingly positive: better sleep, less stress, less stress, and decreased anxiety.
- Nutrafol is customized for men and women differently because of their different needs.
- It works on any type of hair. It even improves healthy hair and prevents aging and thinning.
- It contains medical-grade botanicals. These have been developed for the best efficacy and absorption possible.
Nutrafol ingredients
This isn't a complete ingredient list but will give you an idea of what Nutrafol contains:
- Super vitamin E (EVNolMax)
- Ashwagandha (reduces stress hormone Cortisol)
- BCM-95 Biocurcumin (derived from turmeric, curcumin, helps strengthen immune system)
- Cayenne Pepper Extract
- Biotin
- Kelp
- Zinc
- Vitamins A, C, and D
Nutrafol doesn't work overnight. It is suggested that you take it for 6 months to notice the most visible changes. You will know it is starting to work as your hair goes through stages of change. First, you will notice less shedding on your pillow, in the shower, and on the floor. Then you will start to notice that your hair overall looks and feels healthier. After that, you will start to notice that your hair is stronger and thicker.
We at Trilogy want men and women in the Salt Lake City area to not only look their best but to feel their best. Nutrafol might help you do both. Nutrafol pairs well with many of our other treatments including our PRP hair loss therapy. PRP, or Platelet-Rich Plasma is essentially concentrated platelets from your own blood. When concentrated they have amazing healing and revitalizing powers. We have seen people successfully grow hair back after a PRP hair replacement treatment. Come in to our office and grab some Nutrafol and we can talk to you about a customized approach to hair loss or any other aesthetic issue you would like to address. Our consultations are always free. Call Trilogy Medical Center at 801-747-2273.

2010 Philly Cheerleaders Squad
The Eagles Cheerleaders support the NFL's Philadelphia franchise from the sidelines of Lincoln Financial Field.
Known for their beauty and grace, the cheerleaders also spend countless hours involved in community service and public appearances.
Philadelphia Eagles Cheerleaders History
The cheerleading squad debuted in 1948, but, at that time, they were known as the Eaglettes. They kept that moniker until the 1970s, when they were known for a brief period as the Liberty Belles.
Later, they would settle on The Eagles Cheerleaders, a name which remains to this day. The modern squad wears outfits designed by noted designer Vera Wang, and they have been featured in magazines such as Muscle and Fitness, FHM, and Maxim.

It's 9:30 A.M. in Robert Hand's Family & Consumer Science class at Mount Vernon High School. Nineteen seniors settle into their seats and everyone has an HP Notebook. Trendy music plays softly in the background, there is a string of white lights on the ceiling, the classroom lights are dim, and curtains cover the windows creating a calming ambiance. One World posters with inspirational quotes and eye-catching graphics decorate the classroom. Tea and hot cocoa are available for the students. This day the students are subdued, there is not much chatter, and the overall energy of the room seems low.
The bell rings and Hand sits on a stool in the front of the room observing his students. After assessing the situation, he begins with one word, "Senioritis."
"Does anyone know the definition?" he asks.
Long pause, then one student says, "I'm fully aware of it, skipping."
Hand continues the thought, "How about no motivation? It's a disease, but it's not, but it is. It hits everyone senior year; you think I'm done, it's really hard, I'm ready to be done. But let me tell you, here's what you do! You recognize it. Realize it. Don't let it get you! Your senior year goes quickly. Don't get behind. Remember to look for causes and symptoms. Is the weather getting cold? Is it darker out? Is it harder to wake up? Think about what you do to overcome it? I can tell you all this, four o'clock A.M. is not my friend. I put my alarm clock on the other side of the room so I have to get up." A few students chuckle.
Hand then guides the students through the elements of applying for a job. Starting off by acknowledging, "Job interviews are awkward and you'll probably be nervous, it takes practice."
There's a giant applicable quote projected on the screen up front, "Life isn't perfect. But your outfit can be." Hand gives the students an entry task of finding examples of professional dress (including what to wear and what not to wear) while he walks the room and greets each and every student with a fist bump and checks in with them on their job applications.
Next is a tie tying lesson, followed by professional behavior: introductions, eye contact, and other interviewing advice. By the time they get to the professional handshake demonstration, the students are smiling at each other and cracking jokes.
Hand then launches into a comedic sketch of types of bad handshakes with a student volunteer demonstrating: "the dead fish" (shake but no pressure), "the death grip" (too much squeeze), "the pumper" (shake them out), "the royal shake" (fingertips only), "intense eye contact," and the "power trip handshake" (hand
on top). The students are completely engaged and laughing.
Hand tells them, "I make you guys get awkward sometimes. You're just going to have to deal with it."
It is clear that Hand puts his whole heart and soul into teaching; he makes an effort to know each of his students, what makes them tick, and how to communicate and engage with them. He genuinely cares about these kids and works on individual relationships built on trust and communication. He checks in on them and follows up to see how they are doing. Hand believes that it is important for kids to learn valuable life lessons in a safe place from someone who cares about them.
What makes Hand so relatable is that he incorporates his personal stories into his lessons to make them relevant. In his Teacher of the Year application, he wrote about a lesson on distracted driving:
He starts with a video that gets everyone's attention. After the video, he has students text words that come to mind when they think of distracted driving. They text the words to an online poll, which creates a wordle on the screen.
Next, they watch a collection of short videos, ending with one about how the human brain isn't actually capable of multitasking.
Then he shows PSAs and statistics from distraction.gov. Afterward, they all go to the football field and students stand next to each other in the end zone. Hand asks them to look down, walk forward, wave at him with one hand, and send a text with the other hand. When they're done, they stop and see how far they have walked. He tells them that the average text takes four seconds to send, in which time a car travels 108 yards at 55 mph which is longer than a football field. He tells them that an average of eight people die per day due to distracted driving.
When they return to the classroom, Hand shows them a picture of a seventh-grade boy who was hit by a distracted
driver. Students figure out it is a picture of Hand, and he tells them the details of his accident and reminds them that everyone is not as fortunate as he was.
He finishes the lesson with an interactive activity. He brings his Nintendo Wii with Mario Kart and has two students sit up front. One student is driving through a course while texting the student next to him. The driver has to continue texting while navigating the course without crashing. No one has ever been able to do it.
Hand says that throughout the lesson students listen, engage in conversation and ask thoughtful questions. He knows this lesson has an impact because they continue to talk to him about it for the rest of the semester. They become much more aware of their behaviors behind the wheel and it scares them a little. They tell him how they start to advocate to friends and family to change their driving habits. Hand says, "It's a great feeling knowing the lesson has reached them and that it is reaching others through them. And personal stories are a reminder that it can happen to anyone."
About his philosophy on teaching Hand says, "I strive to be a force of positivity in my kids' lives. I smile and greet each student every day with a fist bump or a unique handshake we've come up with. I ask how they are doing. I keep food for my students who are hungry and clothes for those who need them. I don't just teach, I provide. I provide knowledge, but more importantly, I provide care. Teaching is hard, but growing up is harder."
And in the words of Karla Gallegos, the student who nominated Robert Hand for the Teacher of the Year, "I personally don't think anyone other than a student who interacts with the teacher every day can truly understand how much a teacher deserves this award. His hard work and passion for helping others is the reason why I proudly recommend Mr. Hand for Washington State Teacher of the Year."
What's in store next for Hand as Washington State Teacher of the year? He has got a full schedule:
- Representing the state at all required National Teacher of the Year events, including several national leadership conferences and the national recognition week in Washington, D.C.
- Serving as the Teacher-in-Residence for Washington's Teacher of the Year program January – June.
- Responding to and fulfilling Teacher of the Year speaking requests, presentations, etc.
- Sitting on the Washington Teacher Advisory Council (WATAC) leadership team and helping plan the spring convening.
- Identifying and taking on at least one statewide initiative and carrying out activities to support it.
- Designing and carrying out a personal communication plan to include a social media and web presence, traditional media strategy, and other publications.
- Networking with teacher preparation programs across the state.
Keep up the good work, Mr. Hand!
This story's cover photo was taken by Kaitlin Petrick, a ninth-grade student at Mount Vernon High School. Kaitlin is a student in Melinda Elliott's photography class.
Kaitlyn wrote, "Working with Mr. Hand was so much fun, he was very easy going and not difficult to work with. He was my first real portrait work and it wasn't difficult or awkward. I just recently started to study photography. I became interested in photography in the late summer/fall of 2017. I started to save up and research cameras and ended up getting a Nikon d340. My favorite subject to shoot is the outdoors. I love taking photos of hills, mountains, lakes, oceans, and sunrises.
I was selected for this project because Mrs. Elliott saw that I was able to understand the manual mode shooting and that I wasn't just taking a photo, but looking for new angles and perspectives early on in the school year."

Three Convenient Locations & Mobile House calls
Acne affects 36% of 4-7 year olds, 28 – 61% of 10-12 year olds, 79 – 95% of 16 – 18 year olds and 12% of middle aged women and 3% of middle aged men. Acne vulgaris seems to be a westernized condition which leads us to think it may have environmental and dietary factors involved. Though in saying that evidence suggests that chocolate has no effect on acne. Generally, a low glycemic diet which improves insulin sensitivity decreases acne lesions and improves weight. Studies have concluded that acne is caused from biological processes which are imbalanced ranging from the skin structure, digestive imbalances with microbial over growth or poor clearance and detoxification, hormone imbalance (including insulin, androgens and cortisol) and / or inflammation within the skin structure and around the acne comedos themselves. Stress is a major factor in hormone imbalances which increases acne lesions, exam time seems to flair most teens up.
Psoriasis affects 1 -3% of the world's population. Psoriasis is a chronic, immune mediated genetic skin disorder where patches of the skin become scaled with distinct boarders and when removed / scratched blood droplets (Auspitz sign) occur. The psoriatic skin becomes itchy, scaly, thicker, red and irritated. Many people are embarrassed by their psoriasis due to the itchiness and scaly skin flakes.
We are lucky to see that research has found the immune pathway that is a major factor in psoriasis. The TH-17 pathway which includes IL-23 is essential for the protection against infectious agents, particularly bacterial infections and also the pathogenesis of inflammatory disorders. The TH-17 pathway, when out of balance, is implicated in autoimmune conditions such as uveitis, crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis as well as psoriasis. The patient with psoriasis also has the risk of developing psoriatic arthritis (up to 39% of patients with psoriasis), obesity, high blood pressure, diabetes, cardiovascular disease as well as the autoimmune conditions listed above.
Even though psoriasis is genetic based we must consider the digestive system, malabsorption, immune modulation and dietary allergens for a comprehensive treatment. This naturopathic approach reduces the risk of the other conditions precipitating as well as treating the psoriasis. Patients can see and feel a difference within 3 weeks and within 6 months the psoriasis is mostly if not completely gone. Of course this depends on the commitment of the patient.
Eczema is also known as atopic dermatitis characterized by dry skin (xerosis), thickening of the skin and an increase in skin markings with lesions. The dysfunction in the skin barrier causes irritation and itchiness and is due to a disturbance in the innate immunity, nutrient deficiencies, allergens, genetic influences, psychological stress and / or living conditions and climate. In the case of allergens or
irritants the skin will proliferate in order to remove the invading pathogens. This proliferation causes leaky skin which causes an increased immune response.
This decrease in the immune response also opens the door for 'super antigens' and infections which exacerbates the condition. The super-antigens as well as general immunity can be quickly resolved with naturopathic medicine where assessment of food allergens may be contributing as well as assessing nutrient deficiencies and digestive health.
An international study of 2222 infants aged between 11.5 and 22.5 months with atopic eczema found that 64% of those in who the condition developed before 3 months of age had a high-risk IgE-mediated food sensitivity to egg and / or cows milk and /or peanut. (Worth A, Sheikh A. Food allergy and ectopic eczema. Current Opinion Allergy Clinical Immunology. 2010 Jun;10(3):222-8.)
Acne rosacea can range from reddening of the skin (flushing), pustules and /or red spots. When the acne rosacea is more developed it can be quite painful with a burning or stinging sensation. It can also cause the skin to be dry and thicken.
Often people who suffer from rosacea also experience migraine headaches. This is due to the vascular changes in individuals with rosacea. The digestive system is also affected where rosacea patients can suffer from dyspepsia, bloating, flatulence, abdominal pain and constipation. This could be due to the helicobacter pylori overgrowth, which also causes vasodilation, inflammation and immune modulation in the skin.
Naturopathic medicine takes the whole person into account when treating and supports the body to be feeling better overall. Herbal and nutritional medicine is very effective in treating rosacea.
Herpes simplex is characterized by painful, burning or pruritic clusters of vesicles on the lips, oral mucous membranes, genital region and / or other areas of the body. I was surprised to see that close to 80% of the adult population carry the HSV-1 infection with only 30% having outbreaks. Cold sores which appear on the mouth are also known as herpes labialis and are the most common form of infection caused by HSV type 1. Genital herpes is the most frequent HSV type 2 presentation. Most often, the virus remains latent in the nerve root ganglion (a part of the nerve cell) and can be reactivated by immune deficiency, stress, fever, ultra violet light and trauma. Certain foods can also bring on the symptoms. There are nutrients that actually block the replication of the herpes virus thus reducing its capacity to cause lesions.
Other skin conditions such as tinea pedia, tinea versicolor, ringworm, dandruff and cradlecap are mostly caused by fungal infections and can be sorted out very quickly with a change in diet and some supportive nutrients.

As promised at SQLBits and SQL Supper, I intend to publish my PowerShell build / deploy scripts for on-premise data warehouses to my GitHub repository as soon as possible. The biggest hold up on my side has been finding the time (always problematic) and thinking of a suitable URL for this new blog and associated repository.
As soon as the first code goes up to GitHub, I will publish a blog here outlining where to get the code and exactly how you can use the PowerShell to build and deploy on-premise data warehouse projects which contain not only databases, but also SSIS packages.
So please subscribe to my blog so you get notified when I publish the first version of my powerful PowerShell build & deploy scripts.

The hashtag was trending worldwide on Monday morning.
Amid the hostage crisis in Sydney, Australia—which now appears to have finally come to an end—social media is overflowing with the hashtag #illridewithyou. Meant initially as an offer to actually ride with Muslims who might feel unsafe using public transportation in the wake of the hostage situation, the hashtag has now been adopted globally as a gesture of solidarity with Muslims everywhere.
The hashtag was created when Twitter user @MichaelJames_TV shared a screenshot of a woman's Facebook status about how she tried to comfort a Muslim woman at a train station.
This, this is what good people do. #sydneyseige #MartinPlace pic.twitter.com/zxbHLWzxEp
— Michael James (@MichaelJames_TV) December 15, 2014
Another Twitter user, @sirtessa, came up with the idea for the hashtag after retweeting the interaction.
If you reg take the #373 bus b/w Coogee/MartinPl, wear religious attire, & don't feel safe alone: I'll ride with you. @ me for schedule.
— Sir Tessa (@sirtessa) December 15, 2014
Maybe start a hashtag? What's in #illridewithyou?
— Sir Tessa (@sirtessa) December 15, 2014
From there, it took off.
Anyone worrried about using public transport in Cairns tmrw because #Lindt, hit me up for a lift. #illridewithyou ;) my car singing sux tho

Chrysanthe Chronis is a player character played by ShotJon and is currently involved in Lam's Taking It Back plot.
*Combat theme: New Evil
Height: 6'8 (203 cm) Mass: 111 lb. Measurements: Bra Size: B
Build and Skin Color: Chrys is very muscular and well built. She has an athletic body and smooth skin. She is Caucasian. She lost her wings, so she leans forward a little to shift her balance.
Facial Features and Eye Color: Chrys has blue round eyes with slim eyebrows. She has a small nose and slim lips.
Hair Color and Style: Chrysanthe has white hair. Changing her hairstyle to fit her 'muscial career' she now wears her hair in various punky ways.
Distinguishing Features: She has a big tattoo of odd shapes on her back to cover the scars left by her wings. She has a slightly boyish voice.
Personality: Chrys likes to not stand out, which is rather hard when you are almost seven feet tall. She is sarcastic and has a sense of humour. Life in Funky City taught her to be careful. Gaining her trust is not that easy, but when she gets to know somebody and trusts them, she is pretty loyal to them and goes out of her way to help them out. She also likes hand to hand fighting and gets into a brawls a lot. Chrys fell in love with Lucas Jackson, cares for him deeply and shows her gentler side to him. She is still ready to fight alongside him whenever needed.
Likes: Lucas Jackson, Good food, exercising, brawls, Music. Dislikes: Gangs and bullies, military. Goals: Enjoy quiet life with her lover Lucas.
Mother: Chara Chronis (deceased) Father: Unknown patrician
If Chrysanthe's life would have been a little different, she could be on the top level of Elysian society, but it was not to be. She was born a bastard to a plebeian woman. Her father wanted to mask that he had an affair with a plebeian so he sent the woman away from Elysia.
The woman chose to move to Nepleslia where she gave birth to a girl. She named her Chrysanthe. Bringing up a child on Nepleslia wasn't easy. Chrys was growing up in one of the worst parts of the city. At first, she and her mother had only a little money, so Chrys had to help out. She got into contact with a little group of child thieves and became a pickpocket.
Chrys was always that strange tall kid with wings, and she got bullied and beaten up a lot. It took her a few years to realize that she was stronger than other kids and to start fighting back. Over the years she got into many fights and her brawling skill got better and better. Unluckily, once she beat up the son of a higher-ranking marine. The angry father took a few of his army buddies, beat Chrys, and cut off her wings.
She spent a few months in the hospital after that. She could feel her wings, even though she didn't have them anymore. She even had to learn to walk differently, because she was off-balance now. It wasn't easy, but she got through it and found a way to live without her wings. In the end, she even found she had no need for them. She hadn't learned to fly, and they got in her way a lot. Nevertheless, it was a part of her body which she lost.
Chrys worked as a messenger for a while to get some money to pay what she owed for treatment. Soon after she finally paid her debt up, her mother died. To close that part of her life, Chrys moved after her mother's funeral. She got into a different part of the city and found herself work as a barmaid and cook. She found herself enjoying the company of other people. She had even a few boyfriends and girlfriends.
When she got thrown out of the bar for punching a good customer because he felt her bum, she thought the time had come to try something new. She got a job at a security company. There, she got training and worked with the company for years. When her contract ended, she felt the need to leave the planet and travel. She took a one-month space training course, and then looked for job offers.
The one job that finally showed was joining the crew of freelance ship named Enkidu. Chrysanthe got in pretty easily and they soon flew off to search a derelict ship. To crews surprise the ship was not completely deserted. Abwehran gril adn an android was found on board or wreck and has been taken on Enkidu. When they got back to Funky City Chrys was told to get odd by captain of the ship. Upon which she just shrugged and got off.
Chrys got back to being lonely and on Funky City. With no chance of joining any crew in close future, she got a job as a bouncer to at least do something in meantime. She did not want to join Nepleslian military after all. Time flying by until NMX attacked Funky City. Chrys was lucky enough to survive the first onslaught and hide underground. Now only lightly armed she has to survive somehow.
Mission One: Chrys got contacted mysteriously by unknown person. She was asked to come to pub in Funky City. When she got there she found out, she was seeked out by man named Alex Foster who wanted her to join his rag-tag band of resistance. After hearing him out and meeting others like Id-Sol Lucas, Hunter Archibald or gunmakes Alexis, she decided to join. After all she hated NMX and wanted them all dead.
Soon after they rode a lonely skyscraper where they met Alex's benefacotrs. A trio of local mobsters. After a short with few zombies, the band got out safely and moved onward. Team then had to get three trucks through the badlands. Trucks had a scientist and mobsters that would help the cause. During the transport, several buggies with armed NMX Id-Sols showed up. Combat was inevitable. After hard fight containing things like shooting missiles in mid-flight and jumping from truck to truck, Chrys was left in hand-to-hand combat against one of the Id-Sols. She underestimated him and he got her on her back and almost raped her, but gang of angry nerds saved her. After the group had to broke through the NMX barricade. With some hardship and tough combat the group made it trough to their new base of operations. Old submarine. There were some losses of course, as few mobsters died in combat and Alexis sustained untreatable damage to her arm, which had to be changed for cybernetics.
Mision Two: Right the next day the group got another mission. Under Lucas's leadership they assaulted a NMX occupied police station in stolen NMX buggy. While other were left outside to fight oncoming reinforcements, Chrys and Lucas made it inside. There they got into armoury only to be under attack from two power armours. Under the stess situation the two them found liking in each other and romance was started with kiss under fire. They than managed to kill one PA with recoilless rifle they found in the armoury, second was bigger problem though. They did not manage to kill him off and were almost to get killed when suddenly Alex's crazy brother Jake, claiming to be princess Hanako saviour of the world showed to distract and topple the armour. Chrys then managed to get close and slit the man's throat.
Then Lucas assaulted the police station itself, clearing the base level by himself and taking a prisoner. After short interrogation the prisoner managed to get a upper hand and take Lucas hostage. Chrys intimidated the Id-Sol into hand-to-hand combat and then beat him up. After that the mission was over and they returned to the submarine, where she and Lucas had intimate get together.
When war was over, Chrys and Lucas found themselves on planet Craggston, handling some other stuff with Lucas. Ending one of the big bad ganger around there, they got into some money and managed to set up life there. Lucas and Alex had a falling out though, so Chrys keeps away from Alex as well.
Chrys likes to exercise and lift weights. She is pretty strong even for an Elysian. She likes to run. She is not very acrobatic, though.
Chrys is a proven hand-to-hand combatant. She uses no style, but years of brawling and bar fights gave her enough experience. She knows how to use a knife too, but she tends to keep it sheathed. She knows how to shoot a gun and is an average marksman. She likes mainly pistols and rifles.
While looking for anything that could interest her, she picked up the violin and electric guitar. She is a rather good player and likes to jam whenever she can. She is also an average dancer. Her singing isn't swell, but she knows a few good songs.
Chrys knows how to drive. She worked as a driver a few times during her time with the security company.
Growing up in Funky City, you pick up things you wouldn't expect. During times her family was short on money, Chrys found herself working with a band of pick-pocketers. She is able to perform thievery in crowds and knows a little about locks.
During her time at the bar she learned how to cook and mix drinks. She helped out the chef a lot and learned a thing or two.
Chrys is fluent in Nepleslian, Trade language, and Elysian, thanks to her mother. She also knows how to use a communicator properly thanks to her years with Security.
Zeta Five is currently a in the . She receives a weekly salary of -salary- per week.

PLASTIC STRAWS are always in the top 10 of number of items collected during beach cleanups. Some folks ask "Why do we need a beverage delivery system, anyway?" Well, it's true that up until about 100 years ago nobody had one!
At GlassDharma, our focus is to do what we can do and what we do best. Single use plastics are not only one of the biggest contributors to plastic pollution, it is also one of the (relatively) easier issues to remedy – at least when it comes to stopping the pollution. Cleaning up what is already there is another topic for discussion. Our company's focus is on making high quality drinking straws right here in Fort Bragg, California.
Colored dots add both fun and functionality. Used to color code your drinks (or just plain decorate your place setting), they also keep your straw from rolling off of the table or counter.
The 12mm straw is perfect for thicker drinks like smoothies, malts and shakes!

With polls showing the Liberals in a tight contest with the Conservatives, the current federal government needsto champion a defining issue that will carry them to victory next October. It certainly won't be fiscal responsibility. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's election promise of "modest" deficits has burgeoned into large, long-term debt escalation that will fall on the shoulders of millennials. Then there's his other headline election promise: reducing taxes for "middle-class" families. A recent Fraser Institute analysis found that the 1.5 percent federal tax rate reduction was more than offset by elimination of previous tax deductions, resulting in 80 percent of middle-class families paying at least $840 more tax per year. Another election promise was indigenous reconciliation. Unfortunately, a bungled missing and murdered women inquiry has only exacerbated aboriginal anger and disappointment. And Trudeau's promise to improve the Harper government's First Nations consultation process failed spectacularly with the disastrous court decision against his government's own pipeline project.
No election winning defining issue in that list, but how about the new USMCA agreement to replace NAFTA? Canadians are breathing easier now that a disastrous cancellation of NAFTA has been avoided, but its replacement contains significant concessions to the Americans. Moreover, high tariffs on steel, aluminum and forest products continue. No wonder the letters "FTA" are no longer part of the agreement.
So, what is that defining issue the Liberals hope will carry them to second term? The answer: "putting a price on carbon". From the beginning of his mandate, the Prime Minister has made lowering carbon emissions a centerpiece of his government's raison d'etre. Trudeau promised an approach wherein "fighting climate change and growing the economy go hand-in-hand". Most of the provinces initially bought in. Even Alberta agreed in exchange for federal support for getting its landlocked oil to tidewater.
Now that harmony has fallen apart. Ontario voters became enraged after their Liberal government went all-in on costly wind and solar power projects that drove electricity rates to the highest in North America, and then doubled-down on that failed green agenda by imposing a carbon tax. Following his decisive election victory, Premier Doug Ford joined Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe's anti-carbon tax mission. Manitoba Premier Brian Pallister then announced his province would also refuse to levy a carbon tax. Alberta polls indicate Jason Kenney's anti-carbon tax United Conservative Party is headed for victory next spring. That would leave the great swath of the country between BC and Quebec firmly opposed to Trudeau's carbon-pricing agenda. East of Quebec, Newfoundland and Prince Edward Island may soon join New Brunswick in opposing the tax, and public support for it in Nova Scotia tepid at best.
So how could such a divisive situation possibly translate into that election-winning "defining issue" for the Trudeau Liberals? The answer came with the Prime Minister's announcement that Ottawa intends to impose a carbon tax in dissenting provinces. The scheme will levy yet another layer of taxation upon already overtaxed businesses and then return the proceeds to individuals. It's a cynical attempt to buy votes that will pit provinces against our national government and Canadians against Canadians. Those against will be labelled climate change deniers, reviled apostates against Trudeau's heroic mission to save the planet. But would this profoundly damaging Liberal plan actually help the environment?
The answer is clearly NO. Here's why. The carbon tax plan would start at $10 a tonne rising to $50 a tonne in 2022. That corresponds to gasoline and diesel price increases of 2 cents per litre rising to 11 cents in 2022. But federal, provincial and municipal taxes already make up 44 cents of the current Canadian average pump price of $1.34/litre. The reality is that the average Canadian driver already pays the equivalent of a carbon tax of $200 a tonne, costing more that $28 for a 64-litre fill-up and generating government revenues of $24 billion in 2018. This leaves the Liberal claim that adding a few cents per litre will take half of the country's 24 million cars off the road without any credibility whatsoever.
Both proponents and opponents agree that carbon taxes would need to rise by much more than $50 a tonne to make a perceptible difference in demand. A leaked federal government briefing document obtained by the Canadian Taxpayer's Association states that another $300 per tonne, equivalent to 68 cents per litre, would need to be added to reach Canada's greenhouse gas emission targets. Moreover, a United Nations report estimated that a global carbon tax would need to be as high as $5,500 per tonne to meet the Paris targets Canada has signed onto. Even taxes far below this level would ravage global economies and be politically impossible.
The fundamental economic premise of inverse price/demand elasticity requires readily available and affordable alternatives. For the vast majority of people needing to get to work, run their business or take an airplane flight, raising the price just forces them to allocate a larger portion of their income to energy.
Trying to solve a problem with the wrong solution will inevitably lead to failure. That's why even those most concerned about global warming should oppose carbon taxes. However, there is a solution that will not only reduce Canada's carbon emissions, but also help our economy. Two words: natural gas. Converting gasoline or diesel fueled vehicles to natural gas reduces carbon dioxide emissions by roughly a third. And there's another benefit: anyone who's driven behind a natural gas-powered transit bus knows that it produces none of those toxic black particulates or foul nitrogen-oxide (NOx) compounds that spew out of diesel powered ones.
Canada is endowed with a virtually limitless supply of low cost, clean-burning natural gas. Natural Resources Canada data shows recoverable resources ranging from 860 to 1,768 trillion cubic feet, a 143- to 298-year supply at current production rates. Yet we have a miniscule 15,000 natural gas fueled (NGV) vehicles. The top ten NGV countries may surprise you: China 5.3 million, Iran 4.0 million, India 3.1 million, Argentina 2.3 million, Brazil 1.8 million, Italy 1.0 million, Columbia, 600,000, Thailand 475,000 and – get this – Uzbekistan 450,000.
Conversion of gasoline-powered vehicles to natural gas isn't much more complicated than adding a compressed natural gas (CNG) tank. And it's certainly not new technology. When my former company started its first natural gas production in 1976, I had our field service trucks converted so that drivers could change back and forth from natural gas to gasoline at the flick of a switch.
Converting diesel engines to burn natural gas, while more complex, is now mainstream technology. Vancouver based Westport systems, in alliance with engine producer Cummins, is a world leader in applying the technology to the heavy truck industry. Daimler, Kenworth and Volvo all offer NGV fueled trucks. BC Ferries is progressively converting its fleet to natural gas. CN and CP are testing converted natural gas-powered locomotives.
NGVs are not only cleaner than gasoline or diesel powered vehicles, they're safer, even in underground parkades, because gasoline leaks pool on the ground while natural gas, being lighter than air, simply rises and quickly dissipates into the air. They're also safer than propane vehicles already in use, because propane is heavier than air and doesn't dissipate quickly.
Canadian government data shows that transportation produces 28 percent of total carbon emissions. Coal-fired power produces another six percent. My calculations show that converting half the vehicle fleet and the remaining coal power plants to natural gas would reduce Canada's carbon emissions by eight percent, compared with virtually nil under the Liberal carbon tax plan. Moreover, thousands of high skilled jobs would be created as Canada seizes the opportunity to becomes the North American leader in NGV technology.
So how can governments encourage this to happen? The answer is the reverse of more taxes. The pre-tax cost of natural gas already sells below the price of diesel or gasoline. Simply exempting natural gas natural gas from those high motor fuel taxes would create a compelling incentive. In other words, all governments need to do is to keep their tax-hungry hands off and let it happen.
The choice is clear: a negative, divisive national battle that nets no environmental benefits, or harnessing our country's natural resource endowment and strong technological know-how to make Canada North America's NGV leader.

A proof of concept can be conducted either before an implementation or it can be the first phase.
This involves building a prototype which enables us to validate the feasibility of the system and present the solution.
As well as identifying potential design issues it allows both client and implementer to get up to speed quickly on the system and client requirements.
We define a certain area of the business that is both critical and is able to stand on its own. A requirements document will be drawn up and then the proof of concept build will carried out and tested with the client to ensure that the software meets the need of the business. This will do the following:-
- Ensure the software meeting business needs without investing in a full project.
- Gets staff comfortable with using new software.
- Involves staff in the process of building trust and experience.

My dd's school are doing a christmas cake competition. I want to do a cake that is novelty as i can't really pipe or do gumpaste flowers etc. I can make figures and work wholly in fondant. I liked the snoopy on his house christmas cake on here as I feel it would fulfil my desire to be fun for kids but appeal to parents to but in UK few kids know who snoopy is now a days. Any ideas for a cool cake would really help me here!!!!
thats a tough one, i know what you mean with kids not knowing who snoopy is these days .
perhaps have a look through the the xmas gallery , might get some inspiration there.
you could do something simple like a gift box or a big stocking with the top full of toys, im sure most kids could relate to that
Thanks Cath I had a look through the gallery before and also the older Holiday cakes competition stuff but still not getting it. I love those Christmas tree cakes and I love the Santa that won the competition, it has a sack so maybe I'll do him...only worry is what will people think about eating santa?!!!! Might put people off!
hmmm, suppose you can always tell them although its safe to eat, its really just decoration
i love penguins! could do a proper 3d one, standing or lying, or the white snow scene with penguin figures.
or a stocking, or a big present cake!
I think a snowflake cake would be beautiful. One of my favorite christmas specials is the one with the adbomial ( I know I didn't spell that right) snowman and the island of mis fit toys. That one is classic and still shown on tv. I read that you are from across the pond. I am not sure if you know what I am talking about. You could do a small tier cake with huge snowflakes covered in edible glitter the possibilities are endless.

An open letter to the Knox County Republican Party and all of Knox County,
Over these last few weeks and months, I have been asked to consider running and serving, as your next Knox County Republican Party Chairman. I have sought the Lord's will, diligently thinking about what is best for my family after these last several years of tough campaigning, and serving as your State Representative in House District 13. It has been humbling, and overwhelming, the level of support and encouragement that I have received during this time.
In today's world, perception drives our realities, and especially when that perception is being driven by the national media narrative. For too long we have allowed others to define who we are as Republicans in Knox County. We have people who are ashamed to say that they are a Republican; this should never be the case again.
We are Republicans! We believe, not just in limited government, but smart and efficient government. We believe that every child has the right to life. We believe that the Constitution of both the United States, and of Tennessee, should be interpreted by the courts with an eye toward original intent, and not as a living constitution. We believe in the ingenuity and exceptionalism of the American people. We believe in YOU!
It is with this stance, that I humbly submit myself to you, for your consideration and vote, to be your next Knox County GOP Chairman.
I pledge to you these things if I am fortunate to earn your vote on February 23, 2019, at the Knox County Republican Party Convention at Central High School.
1. We will modernize the Knox County GOP communications systems. Too many of our citizens do not know what events, club meetings, gatherings are taking place. Let alone when our elected officials are holding meetings or campaign events.
2. We will engage the young people of Knox County as they are our future. Over these last few years, I have had the privilege to have dozens of UT College students as interns. They have endless energy and an incredible desire to serve this party. We need to give them a seat at the table.
3. We will prepare for the 2020 election unlike at any time in our past. Our electorate is more divided than ever and we will no longer let OUR narrative be set by anyone, but us. While the national stage will be a focus, we know that our local races have to take a priority for the Knox County Republican Party.
4. We will work to train and recruit the best and brightest candidates to run for office, and we will support them with unparalleled training and support.
5. We will work to build our financial war chest, to financially support the candidates we put forth for public office.
