text: Hi, Thank you so much for your response! On one side I tend to use mnesia because it is free and can be used on distributive nodes, on the other hand I am not very much aware of the shortcoming of mnesia. So there is always a question in front of me whether to what extend can mneisa handle things easily. I tried reading some article on internet like learnyousomeerlang.com, looked at erlang documentation but couldn't understand the limitations of mnesia. It will be very nice if you can give me some pointers where I can understand the internals of mnesia properly and use it accordingly. About my back up node, the process group has some specific name or id. I'll prefix the table names with the unique id. Each process group serves a specific group of people(say). I am using back up node for failover case so that I don't lose data. It is important not to lose data. Are you saying that saving it on the disk on the same node is enough? No need to store on the other node? disk failure is rare and in that case I've data in RAM(mnesia). The capacity of servers like RAM, disk space can be assumed as much as we want.

The advice that I would give new students is to be fearless when confronted with new opportunities. If I would have neglected to take all of the opportunities I was afraid of or was hesitant to pursue I would not be doing any of the activities I am doing today. Get involved, stay involved, and never be afraid to do something you haven't done before!

Modern Gypsy
An amalgamation of thoughts and interests is how I can best describe Modern Gypsy's blog. Her URL speaks a lot as well, after all gypsies are peddlers of dreams.
At one glance, you will feel that there is so much to see and read on her blog but slowly when you start spending more time, you see patterns. And they stay with you long after you leave her blog. Everything is arranged in an order, in such a way that you would not want to leave her site.
You like reading travel blogs? She has taken care of it. You love books? She serves you reviews. Not sure about what to wear? She helps you with comfortable pieces. Looking for some yummy recipes? Visit her kitchen. Love reading about deep thoughts and soulful thinking? She has got that covered as well. Just like a gypsy, she knows everything about your wants immediately. And you know what is the best part? She just doesn't write, she speaks through her blog. And if you are unsure about what that means then you should spend some time reading her posts. I am sure you will hear her talking to you. It is so beautiful and personal.
Her words warm you and you feel like she has invited you to her home for a relaxing chat. Imagine a fireplace being ready, hot tea waiting for you, some home made yummy snacks whose fragrance are playing with your senses and a serene gypsy waiting to share her treasure of words with you. I am for sure going to be visiting it more often and I recommend you should as well.
The above post is a part of an awesome initiative by Indiblogeshwaris :) Kudos to them!

This part of the course is designed to help you improve your fluency and command of English in stimulating ways. We use a continuously updated range of resources, materials and approaches and cover areas such as: advanced language practice including idiomatic range, appropriacy and accuracy of expression, current usage, collocation, style and register, metaphorical and imaginative use of language, grammatical review, expansion of vocabulary, development of oral fluency and also pronunciation with emphasis on the features of connected speech.
Where possible, we try to exploit the Language Development stage of the course to show-case more creative ways of presenting and practising language. These will be techniques that the teachers may be able to exploit when they return to their countries.
What does it mean to be a creative teacher? We will look at ways of working creatively with texts, pronunciation, vocabulary, grammar and areas such as storytelling, music, poetry, drama and movement. This course is practical and focuses on learning through enjoyment and creativity. Participants are encouraged to experience ideas and adapt them to the needs and interests of their own learners. Ideas and materials covered will be of special interest to teachers of secondary and adult students although many can be adapted for primary use.
Update your knowledge of Britain today - its contemporary language and usage as well as popular culture, literature, people in the news, politics, royalty, education, humour, housing, etc. The course enables you to work with ideas and materials (questionnaires, DVD/video, cartoons, current articles from the media and the internet) that you can adapt for classroom use.

UltraFiber is an excellent and cost effective alternative to wiremesh. We have had fantastic results with this product. It is not visable at the surface and does not interfere with any finishing techniques.
Over 40 years of experience has taught us a few things about concrete. The first thing is you cannot make the best concrete without the very best raw materials available. Our rock and sand come from mines with great equipment and innovative processes. We use only reprocessed flyash, which is far superior to virgin ash and far more consistent. We use only the best cement suppliers. Our admixtures are absolutely the best on the planet.
The next thing is we realize we are not a gigantic company with hundreds of quality control technicians and lawyers running around to back us up. Therefore, we want to make sure every load that leaves our facility is absolutely right.
We can design mixes to meet any specification. We can also design mixes to tailor to your situation. If you need 4500 PSI with an 8" slump, we can design a mix to do that. We can design mixes that leave less voids or bugholes for an exposed wall. We can manipulate set times for your jobsite conditions.
Admixture technology has come a long way over the last few years and we have access to the best products and the most well trained experts in the world. If you have a question about a product or a situation, give us a call. If we don't know the answer, we will contact someone who does.
BCP Mix Designs are Better Concrete Performance
Highly flowable slump concrete
Good Workability, Pumpability, and Finishing Characteristics
Faster Placement and Production
Consistent Performance
Desired Durability
Lower Shrinkage and Cracking Potential
Less Energy and CO2 Emmission
Lower overalll Environmental Impact
Bell Concrete along with our concrete admixture supplier have taken advantage of technological advances to produce a concrete that performs better than traditional concrete. BCP mix designs are a way to lower our and your ecological impact, while gaining performance.
BCP Mix designs are also adjustable and prescriptive. If you have certain needs on a particular job, BCP mixes can be designed to meet those needs. Examples include a poured concrete wall with practically no voids or bug holes, self consolidating concrete for heavy rebar applications, delayed or increased set times, highly flowable mixes. All of these things and more can be supplied with BCP mix designs.
The environmental results are easily quantifiable. Just one of our customers who now pours exclusively BCP mix designs, can claim the following environmental savings for just one year of their production.
Environmental Savings.
113,686 1/2 liter bottles of water.
Energy to power 25 homes for a year.
19,980 gallons of gas or 222 acres of forest.
We can provide this same information to you for your next project. Think of the numbers you could produce if you were putting in a whole subdivision or building 100 homes.

ITT: Fighting anime and manga that are actually realistic.
so he died here?
Shamo until certain chapter
Mistook this for a recommendation thread.
>Because I'm pretty sure the only people that could tell you are real fighters who have either been in a lot of street fights or have done a combat sport competitively.
Can we make /a/sp/ theads a thing like /ak/ threads? Good anime discussions just can't happen over there.
>good discussions
50% of delinquent manga are realistic, and even the other 50% that have people getting punched across halls still have them get fucked over when they're ganged up on or attacked from behind. Just read Be-Bop High School and the few drawn out fight scenes were pretty good.
>not pic related
Why do so few manga accurately depict the sparkles and glitter that get produced in fights? It's like these mangakas have never punched anyone in their lives.
Do boxing manga count? Because RRR had a few street fights that were pretty realistic.
You mean /asp/ No because no matter what it turns into big dick shows. That's all fucking /asp/ is. That place gives me cancer. There's no such thing as a true intent to discuss or modesty when it comes to that place.
There are some good posts occasionally. After the obligatory shitposting, the daily "What MA is best for self-defense?" threads can turn into pretty decent discussions.
Pretty much the only one that is semi-realistic
And in fact its probably the worst. as expected of Hiroki Endo
>threads can turn into pretty decent discussions.
No, they can't. They turn into people who begin their post acting like they're contributing and then end up leading into and doing nothing but talking about themselves. That place is fucking trash. I was meber interested in discussion but I did go there to see if there could be any interesting information. After a good day or two of lurking I basically made a post in a thread sperging about how they're all faggot cocksuckers who aren't really fighters then left and never went back. I've never seen such a display of trash. It's like all the big dick faggots at the gyms just gathered onto that board and started doing they're disgusting tendencies there.
>getting this mad about the inherent nature of every 4chan board
Let me guess, you study Wing Chun
y ca
>It's like these mangakas have never punched anyone in their lives
You'll be surprised to know how many people in the world never had a fight, especially into first world countries.
Do you seriously think he was talking about /asp/?
I'm pretty sure they were being sarcastic.
because its FABULOUS AND BIZARRE, ALMOST LIKE THE TITLE OF THE SHOW HAHAHAHA
>Can we make /a/sp/ theads a thing like /ak/ threads?
I wish /ak/ didn't exist, or that they tried to adhere to board culture more.
>who aren't really fighters
you mean, there's someone in the world that is a "real fighter"? this is why I can't stand people into martial arts, they're chuuni as shit but they think they're hardcore realists
>Wing Chun
No. And it looks like you're just another one of those faggots. I study boxing. And I could go on all fucking day with bragging material. I'm sure as fuck not even 1/4 as pretentious as them. Reason I don't is because I'm not 1/4 as much of a faggot as they are either.
>getting this mad about the inherent nature of every 4chan board
No, the one thing I can vouch for about 4chan is that they aren't like that at all. Each board may be stupid, pretentious, elitist and so on but they surely don't go around blogging and being nothing but non contributing arrogant attention whores.
>scanlate like the fist of the north star
>relatively stay within /ak/ threads
I see nothing wrong with /ak/
Clearly he was. Especially taking it into context of the thread.
I'm not saying they don't produce anything good. They do a lot of subs, too. Well, that one guy does. But it's a pain seeing them on /a/.
When on /a/, be an /a/non. When on /k/, be a /k/ommando. There's nothing stopping you from doing both at the same time.
I didn't mean to come off with that "honorabu samurai" bullshit. I just don't think being a fighter is something you should go around bragging or flaunting. It's simply stupid and immature. my point with that was a lot of people there are pretending to be something they're not, among many other things.
He wasn't talking about discussing shit on the board itself though.
It's good to intermingle board cultures every now and again, it helps them evolve.
Eh, it's true the threads do devolve into /k/ shitposting at times, but it's actually been less frequent lately, and the shitposting has moved onto Kancolle threads, which have absolutely no relation to /ak/, for the record.
>It's good to intermingle board cultures every now and again,
>it helps them evolve
It would be if image boards needed evolution in any way.
too bad they won't. look at /tg/ . did it really needed to become tabletop /v/? I don't believe so. evolution will come anyway while the users generations change. forcing it means just polluting both habitats you fuckhead.
>the board itself though.
No but my point is that wherever you bring that subject, that shit will follow guaranteed. I've already seen it a lot on /a/ when people bring up anime/manga that focuses on fighting, and I honestly very rarely lurk the catalog, if ever, and lurk said threads even less.
>Intermingle board cultures
I think it's good only when it's needed just we don't have extra branch/needless boards being made.
No means yes.
>did it really need to become tabletop /v/
Is that even what it is anymore?
>forcing it means just polluting both habitats you fuckhead
>forcing it
I always hear shit like this, what the hell defines forcing something on here?
Forcing it mean consciously doing it.
Forcing a meme is reposting it until other people post it too.
Forcing /ak/ means making threads with /ak/ in the subject rather than just threads that /k/ and /a/ would both be interested in.
You know what? That makes sense. Thank you for clarifying.
Realistic fighting is really more beneficial from a plot standpoint, all it does for the fights themselves is limit the potential for the choreography. I guess you could say it makes them more brutal or that it raises the tension a bit, but there's other ways to do that.
Most of the time it's just "New GuP manga chapters"/"New Upotte chatpers" and so on, I haven't seen an /ak/ thread advertising itself as one in the OP for ages.
Speaking of which how come there's been almost no discussion about the new Desert Punk chapters? Someone's finally scanlating decade old chapters at an astonishing pace and no one seems to give a shit.
Most anons are too new for it.
Those that aren't too new are anime-only fags.
Manga have always had a minority representation of /a/. Once you get away from WSJ there's barely anybody left except the Aria brigade.
>1/4 as much of a faggot
Yet you still are a faggot.
I guess I just thought it'd be bigger among the Black Lagoon Jormungand /ak/ crowd.
He's on /a/, that's kind of a given.
So is good art required for it to be considered realistic?
The most realistic I can remember is Shigurui. Some of the stances and grip techinques can seem retarded, but details like the strongest characters being all muscular as fuck, the short length of the sword fights and the disgusting gorey details gave a realistic feel to it.
Vegabond was always good.
>asking for something realistic
>in fiction
Are you retarded?
Well, I'd say there's a certain difference in realism between Digimon and Solanin. But that's just my opinion.
>short length of the sword fights
That's my main issue with realism in sword fights.
If I were an anime director, I'd hire a team of expert swordsmen of various styles to work out the choreography. I'd also hire a bunch of /fit/ physicians to handle the movements of the superpowered little girls. Of course I'd do all this in secret and forbid them from going public.
The battles would be short and uninteresting to look at and the girls would look like they're spastic or something. Everybody would hate the action aspects of my anime until one random anon mentions that it kind of looks realistic only to be shit on by everybody else for liking crap.
You know, if it just stuck to one style it could be both realistic and drawn out. I mean lengthy realism comes at the price of severely restricting the choreography but it could still be interesting. Of course then people would just call it boring.
I see this posted all the time, is it actually good or is it just muscle-girl fapbait?
Read a few chapters and find out.
But I don't know how to read.
Well, I wouldn't call MMA boring. There's no sparkels and ki blasts, but it sure as fuck's not boring. And there's also blood and broken stuff.
I'm talking about sword fights specifically.
Real life sword fights could be pretty fun to watch.
It all boils down to the martial art that the character used.
realistic tier : MMA, Krav Maga
okay tier : kickboxing
shit tier : everything else.
Sword fights in general could be, but a real life samurai sword fight would most likely be short as fuck, unless both fighters were rich faggots with decent armor.
Judo is occasionally done well. Also what manga character uses Krav Maga?
>shitting on someone who likes crap
That's actually nice if you think about it.
>Krav Maga
That's full fedora-tier now.
>hugging and rolling on the ground
>fighters being very defensive
It's boring for most of the part.
Shamo before China
What's wrong with after China? Just ignore the chi arc ever happened.
>Crab Mango
>hire a team of expert swordsmen of various styles to work out the choreography
Studio 4C did hire someone to help with the fight choreography for the Berserk movies. However, fights in forms of media are hardly ever made to be fully realistic with good reason- it would be relatively boring to watch. A good fight doesn't have to be realistic, it just needs to be believable.
I knew a kid in High School that claimed to be a master at Krav Maga. He was a obese neckbeard who always wore his Full Metal Alchemist jacket to school.
Is that you Alex?
Well, it always come down to a much brutal form of streetfight once they forget about martial arts.
>it just needs to be believable
It doesn't even need to be that sometimes.
Who's responsible for that transparency? Holy shit, that's bad.
What's with all the half-assed transparencies lately anyway? It's like somebody found the autodetect tool and never bothered to actually look at his edits.
Pic related Have some 2 minutes and 0 effort.
>it would be relatively boring to watch.
That's exactly what I want though.
Something that looks completely retarded until you realize it's autistically realistic.
I think he's talking more about "suspension of disbelief" rather than just being believable.
I think the Master Gunfighter had a sword fight like that at the end. That's pretty much the only realistic thing about it though.
I know, I'm saying asspulls and over the top bullshit can work sometimes.
I love Holyland, but it isn't as realistic as you might think.
Anyone here reads Tough? How is it?
Is that a guy kicking a girl? Damn She should be destroyed after that kick.
I think they're both girls.
>Krav baka
Jew, please
she's certainly not taking it very well.
She won the fight though, after taking all that punishment for so long.
Believe it!

Arrive in Ferrara ready to live and learn in a historic city with a tight-knit and "homey" feel. The city is small and relatively free of tourists, with easy access to all the major cities of Italy. It's such a bike-friendly place that CIEE will provide you with a bike so you can explore the city like the locals!
You'll stay with a welcoming Italian host family no more than 15 minutes from where you'll be studying. With them, you'll shop at local markets, prepare and share meals, and practice your Italian while living the typical everyday life of the family.
In the classroom, you'll enter intensive Italian language study with other international students and Americans at the University of Ferrara. When you're not in class, you'll have plenty of time to explore the city and participate in cultural activities like learning to make pasta and gelato, touring historic buildings, and supporting the local soccer team.
Every day in this tranquil, history-rich city will provide opportunities to gain new knowledge on the banks of the River Po, in a city still surrounded by its medieval walls. Your Italian language skills will flourish, and you'll create memories you'll take with you for the rest of your life.

Christina Strickland is fighting for the right to be the legal parent of her son. She is asking the Mississippi Supreme Court to rule that despite not being the biological parent of her son, Z.S., she is still his parent, according to LGBTQ Nation.
Christina is a lesbian who married Kimberly Strickland Day back in 2009 in Massachusetts. While the two were married, they decided to have a child together. Kimberly became pregnant using an anonymous sperm donor – Donor No. 2687.
After six years together, Christina and Kimberly separated, and Christina was told that she could no longer see her son, Z.S. She sought out custody. However, it seems that the lower courts of Mississippi don't know what it means to be a parent.
The court ruled that Christina would have to pay child support and could have visitation rights, but was not legally Z.S's parent.
"The court finds two women cannot conceive a child together," court judge John Grant said in his ridiculous ruling. "The court doesn't find its opinion to be a discriminatory statement, but a biological fact."
Clearly, this judge thinks that conceiving a child is the same as being a parent. I wonder what he would say to someone who adopted a child, or a father who is raising another man's child?
In sperm donor cases for opposite-sex couples, Mississippi presumes the husband to be the legal father of the child, not the person who donated the genetic material. This is clearly not the case when two women use a sperm donor. This is why Christina and her Lawyer are taking this case to the state supreme court.
Birth certificates aren't about listing the biological parents of a child. If that were the case, all men would have to have a DNA test before being listed as a parent. Instead, a birth certificate is about listing those who are going to act as the baby's parents. What's more, in many cases, a birth certificate has nothing to do with the legal parents of a child.
Given that Christina was married to Kimberly at the time it's clear she planned to act as the Z.S.'s legal parent. She hasn't even complained about having to pay for child support!

Shelby is a star in the newest Hollywood movie of a lost puppy's adventure to reunite with her family – " A Dog's Way Home".
Shelby was not one of those lucky ones "born with a silver spoon in his mouth",
Quite to the contrary.
Here story begins in a junkyard in Tennessee. It was a normal day in her life. She was scavenging for food as she did every day of the week. The only thing different that day was here was a lady Animal Control officer T.J. Jordi in the area.
Officer Jordi noticed the skinny and malnutritioned Shelby in the junkyard. The thing that caught her attention was shelby's sparkly eyes and a constantly wagging tail.
"She is always happy, fun to be around, She always seems to smile with her heart " said officer Jordi.
Shelby was taken to a local shelter. As they normally do – they posted a photo of Shelby and advertised her for adoption.
Debbie Pearl – who runs Dream Fetchers, a non-profit organization that trains dogs on their way to a new purpose in life including a path to stardom on the big screen, happened to be looking for a dog and came across the ad for Shelby.
When Debbie saw Shelby's picture – she immediately knew there was something special about this dog. "She was absolutely magnificent and gorgeous" said Debbie. Shelby looked like a good candidate to train for a movie role.
But that road is tough – need lots of skills. Those skills can be acquired through training but is there a desire in Shelby to learn?
Does shelby have the right temperament?
Does Shelby have what it takes to be a movie star?
Lots of questions. She had to meet Shelby in person.
Debbie heads to Tennessee from CA and Shelby's amazing journey begins! Debbie catches the sparkle in shelby's eyes. She is more sure of the potential of this dog. She is more hopeful of Shelby's future than she ever was before.
Shelby is on her way to California!
The new life journey – a remarkable journey begins.
This was the moment that changed Shelby's life. This is what Shelby needed – a chance, an opportunity to learn and show her mettle.
Shelby started training at her new home. This was Shelby's moment!
None of the training lessons were a challenge for Shelby. Voice commands, hand signals, dog tricks, obstacle race, display of patience, focus, ….. you name it – she got it.
"Shelby passed every test with flying colors so everyone fell in love with her" said Debbie.
All obstacles on the path cleared for Shelby to be hired. So, on to the next step – Training for Special Acting skills.
What are those skills?
Recognize markers, recognize what them as her commands and act on those commands. e.g barking markers – when she reaches one she has to learn to bark. Likewise, markers to jump, markers to look a certain way, bark on cue.
Boy that gets complex, huh?
Well – fame doesn't come without some sweat.
Shelby true to her repute, again came through with flying colors. Her Hollywood debut performance was a resounding success.
Did I tell you her performance in "A Dog's Way Home" is her intro to Hollywood and is currently running in local theatres..
Now that she is done with her 1st movie do you wonder what is she doing while she is waiting to get her next movie contract?
Lest you think shelby is now sitting on her laurels and enjoying the beaches of southern California, think again.
This multi talented dog is now working as a therapy dog and recently visited Kansas Medical center to befriend some children that needed and were delighted to have her help.

Regent Renovation
7816 N Regent Rd Fox Point [map]
4 Bdrms / 2 Full & 1 Half Bath
Paul Liebe
Lake Country Flat Fee
Complete renovation in central Fox Point that was listed in late August.
This four-bedroom ranch in central Fox Point was listed in late August by Paul Liebe of Lake Country Flat Fee.
The location is Regent Road, between Calumet and Fairchild. This is close to Stormonth School and convenient to Port Washington Road and Lake Drive.
We actually toured this home when it was for sale last winter and we are impressed by the transformation - the sellers have completely renovated the home and it looks terrific. We like the big open concept great room/kitchen (pic below) with its choice of fixtures/counters/appliances, plus... the big island. We love a big island. Also, the finished basement looks good and even has a fireplace.
Pictures and details via the link to Zillow, below.

Arthur Christmas reveals the incredible, never-before seen answer to every child's question: 'So how does Santa deliver all those presents in one night?' The answer: Santa's exhilarating, ultra-high-tech operation hidden beneath the North Pole. But at the center of the film is a story about a family in a state of comic dysfunction and an unlikely hero, Arthur, with an urgent mission that must be completed before Christmas morning dawns.
I always love a good Christmas movie and was excited when I saw the first previews of Arthur Christmas. It is a movie, my whole family has been waiting to see. I have to say when we finally saw it, we were not disappointed. My whole family loved it.
This movie has quickly become one of my Holiday favorites. My whole family were laughing constantly and enjoyed this movie a lot. I have to say I loved Grandsanta and his pet reindeer ( my daughter wants a pet reindeer now! LOL) Besides the great characters and comedy, the truly best part of this movie is the story of how Santa delivers the packages to everyone in one night. My daughters loved it and it was priceless to see them get so excited about solving the mystery.
I definitely think this is a MUST SEE & MUST HAVE movie for the Holidays. The dvd is available now for where dvds are sold and online at retailers at Amazon.com for $ 17.96. So go get a little Christmas - Arthur Christmas!
* I received the above mentioned product solely for review purposes. The above mentioned opinions are completely honest and completely my own.

It seems that about 1 in 10 people are affected by chronic pain. The causes are not well understood and much of the focus to date has been on emotional factors.
Some scientists believe that Low levels of the sunshine vitamin, vitamin D, may contribute to chronic pain in women. The link does not apply to men, suggesting that hormones may be involved, according to a study published in the Annals of Rheumatic Diseases.
It seems that about 1 in 10 people are affected by chronic pain. The causes are not well understood and much of the focus to date has been on emotional factors, however, some researchers believe that, vitamin D levels could play a role in some cases of chronic pain.
Vitamin D sometimes known as the sunshine vitamin is essential for healthy bones. It is produced in the body when exposed to sunlight and is also found in oily fish, egg yolks and margarine.
Of the 7,000 men and women aged 45 studied, those who were smokers, non-drinkers, the overweight and the underweight all reported higher rates of chronic pain.
Among the women, vitamin D levels also appeared to be important.
Women with vitamin D levels between 75 and 99 mmol/litre – a level deemed necessary for bone health – had the lowest rates of this type of pain, at just over 8%.
Women with levels of less than 25 mmol/litre had the highest rates, at 14.4%.
The findings suggest that more research is needed to fully evaluate whether vitamin D supplements could help prevent chronic pain.
In the meantime, if you have chronic pain it wouldn't hurt to get out in the sun a bit more to boost your natural vitamin D levels. Most people should be able to get all the vitamin D they need from their diet and by adding 30 minutes of sunshine to their daily schedule.

A lot of people would like to have whiter teeth. There are several methods out there to whiten your teeth whiter. Preventing stains is also possible in whitening of the teeth. This article will provide a number of tips that can assist you in discovering the whitening techniques are best for you.
Lemons and oranges are a good source of vitamin C, but they can also whiten your teeth. Rub the inside of the lemon or orange peel against your teeth's surface to make them sparkle. A little salt can be added for enhanced results.
Natural Teeth
Whitening of the teeth solutions are only on the natural teeth. Artificial material will be unaffected by whitening teeth agents. This includes implants, fillings, crowns, and fillings. Your natural teeth will be lightened but that will only highlight the artificial surfaces might make the result look unattractive.
If you use a whitening product on a mix of natural teeth and crowns, using a teeth whitener may whiten your natural teeth, your crowns will remain the same color.
Organic coconut oil is a whitening agent for your teeth. For noticeably whiter teeth, take a small amount of coconut oil and swish it vigorously in your mouth.After around 10 minutes have passed, spit it out and brush your teeth as usual. You should see the results in a few days.
Eating cheese at the end of a meal will help to re-mineralize enamel. Research has proven that calcium gives your teeth enamel a chance to rebuild.
Drink only clear beverages for a few days after you got your teeth whitened.
All three of these will stain your teeth become stained and discolored. If you must have caffeine, use a straw, cover your teeth with your lips, or make sure you brush your teeth immediately afterwards. The main reason people have discolored teeth is because of tea, tea and tobacco.
Red Wine
Red wine is a drink that can negatively impact the enamel on your teeth leading to discolored teeth. The dark colors of red wine are absorbed into the tooth enamel which makes them darker. The only way to truly alleviate this problem is to avoid red wine or stop drinking it altogether.
Try brushing your teeth with crushed strawberries or strawberry juice to help the whiteness.This is a lot of money and will help provide you with a beautiful smile.
Whiten stained or discolored teeth with a paste made from strawberries.Mash fresh strawberries to form a paste-like consistency, and then apply to the teeth. The acids in the strawberry juice will cause your teeth and remove stains. This whitening of the teeth trick offers safe and natural results.
Orange Peel
Use an orange peel's soft side to get rid of stains off your teeth. You can also mix dried orange peel with finely ground bay leaves to make a paste for your teeth.Make sure you rinse your mouth thoroughly afterwords to remove the fruit sugar.
Some at-home teeth whitening for positive singles products can irritate your gums. If this happens, get a different product that uses a lower amount of peroxide. These problems are quite minor and should disappear within days of the time you started using the product.
It is recommended that you have your teeth whitened prior to having braces put on. You will be very satisfied with your new white and improved smile!
The citrus in lemon and lime juices won't whiten your teeth effectively is an old wives tale. You should actually avoid citrus altogether.
Whitening mouthwash can help whiten your teeth. These mouthwashes contain a diluted solution of peroxide to remove stains and discoloration over time. Rinse out your mouth twice a day for about thirty seconds before you brush your teeth.
As was discussed in the beginning of this article, whitening teeth comes in many different methods that can help get your teeth white and free from stains. Applying the information in this article will help you better know you have to do in order to have healthy, unstained white teeth.

Do you need a job offer to secure Express Entry to Canada?
Updated: Oct 2, 2019
Immigration Canada uses Express Entry to manage applications for permanent residency from individuals in these programs: Federal Skilled Worker Program, Federal Skilled Trades Program, or the Canadian Experience Class.
Typically, those wishing to immigrate through Express Entry have received an offer of employment from a Canadian employer.
In the first half of 2017, however, Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) reported that "90 percent of Express Entry candidates who received an Invitation to Apply (ITA) for permanent residence" did not have a Canadian job offer (CIC).
How do I qualify for Express Entry without a Canadian job offer?
Prospective immigrants are ranked in a point system called the Comprehensive Ranking System (CRS). Points are given for each piece of information in your Express Entry profile. Individuals can gain points for a valid job offer. Points are also awarded, however for skills, education, language ability, and work experience.
At the end of 2016, the government reduced the number of points allotted for a job offer, making it easier for applicants without a job offer to accrue a comparable number points to those who do have an offer of employment.
Contact us today for more information on how we can assist you with the immigration

From 1-3 PM, we kids usually played stick ball or soft ball but we had to maintain silence. Round about 2:30, however, we were usually falling down, killing ourselves with silent laughter at the ridiculous enterprise of playing a team sport in silence.
Finally, some adult would come by and send us all home with the stern admonishment to keep silence all the way home - and, no stopping off at the market for a snack. It was straight home and no talking or "I'll tell your parents".
And, they would. Or, someone would spot us on the street, pull over in their car and give us a few whacks upside the head and a good tongue lashing.
Ah, those were the days!
It was always always cause for some alarm, however, when, sometime during that noon to 3 PM period of time, a cloud would cover the sun. Or, unpredictably, a light rain would come from out of nowhere - just for a few minutes - and then, just as suddenly, stop.
As little kids, we thought sure this was a "sign" from God. Surely, the heavens were weeping in remembrance of that terrible "Good Friday" when Jesus hung on the cross until he died.
My grandmother would say, "What those men did to Jesus was horrible. Even the sun is ashamed to shine on this day".
So, we would ask, what's so 'good' about Good Friday?
"It was good," she would say, hand on hip, as if talking to morons, "because Jesus died for us."
We still didn't get it. It's not an easy concept to understand.
The sun is shining brightly today, glistening and dancing on the water. The early April wind feels more like March. It is gusting, blowing away any temporary warmth the sun might provide and causing white caps to form on the water.
There's no sign of rain, but it remains to be seen if we'll get a cloud to cover the sun before 3 PM.
I was reminded of my grandmother's words when I read Steven Charleston's very brief but very powerful Good Friday meditation. Steven Charleston is the retired bishop of Alaska and the former President and Dean of The Episcopal Divinity School in Cambridge, MA.
He wrote:
"Life begins in the tomb. Vision is born of darkness. Hope emerges from despair. Since time first played the music that set the human mind to dance, we have watched the waltz of yin and yang, across the floor of heaven. No light without dark, no life without death. The pattern is not the problem. It is the heart that is to blame. For no change occurs without feeling, that pain that turns the balance of creation to poetry, when what we see so clearly is obscured by the tears we cannot avoid, a child seeing the flower wither, an elder bidding the sun good-bye."I don't know if, as a child, I would have been able to completely comprehend Bishop Charleston's words, but I think I would have appreciated the word of hope rather than the stage of gloom and doom set by the adults of my youth.
It's easy to lose your balance on a day like today. To feel the feelings and then get lost in them.
Many do. My phone is strangely quiet today. I'm used to getting phone calls from people who can't quite put their finger on what's wrong but they are haunted by old memories, ghosts of betrayals past, pained by wounds that have not yet healed.
"The pattern is not the problem," says Bishops Charleston, "It is the heart that is to blame."
Today, on this Good Friday, let us consider "the pain that turns the balance of creation to poetry".
Let us remember that the forsythia which now blaze in yellow glory but was, just a few weeks ago, a dry and brittle bush, desolately clinging to the hard, cold earth.
Let us remember the crocus and the jonquils who stubbornly push their heads above the ground, bidding us to remember that new life lies just beneath the surface of what appears like death.
Let us open our hearts to feel the feelings of this day, knowing that we are safe to do so. The pattern is not the problem. It's simply that it has yet to more fully emerge.
Yes, it is Good Friday. But, Easter is coming.
Take heart.

To celebrate our one year anniversary Antho & I ditched the scorching summer heat of Vegas for the cooler breezes of San Francisco for 6 days. It was an all around wonderful trip! As you may have noticed we really like to travel fairly often having gone to Los Angeles in April and hitting spots like the Whiskey, Venice Beach, Santa Monica, and Union Station as well as having gone to L.A. last fall. It's always nice to explore someplace new and when the tickets are going for as low as $44 it's pretty budget friendly. Hopefully we'll be celebrating our anniversary with new locations for many years to come!
Shortly after departing McCarran airport you'll be privy to views like this in the window seats. Since we flew with Southwest, I was able to choose my own seat due to their open seating policy. If you've never flown with them before or experienced this, it works by assigning customers into boarding groups (A1-60, B1-60, C1-60) based upon their time of check in then letting them board in that order and choose their own seats. Trying to catch some sleep and don't feel like gambling your shut eye on the whims of a teething baby? Grab another open spot! The earlier you check in the better your selection.
We had a brief layover in San Diego, which provided beautiful views of the city and ocean as we flew in. I've passed through the city a few times but rarely ventured beyond the freeways or airport. Someday we'll make the trek! 🙂
Leaving San Diego en route to San Francisco. A very brief journey.
It's always lovely to see the clouds from above.
First views coming into San Francisco!
Welcome to the BART, the Bay Area Rapid Transit. A high speed affordable transit system running throughout the city as well as other nearby locales. The BART runs directly to and from SFO so it makes for an extremely convenient option for traveling into the city with many stops throughout various neighborhoods. You can ride from SFO to West Oakland for roughly $9, a solid 40 minute commute one way from the airport. According to their website:
BART's Excursion Fare allows anyone to tour the BART system (all 44 stations) for up to three hours on a $5.55 fare, as long as you enter and exit at the same station.
Once off the train our senses were confronted with the busy streets of the inner city, vibrant with murals and pretty painted buildings and colorful individuals galore.

By Ayodele Omotoso
There are days and there are special days in one's lifetime that are memorable. The events of those days or moments make it impossible for anyone to forget in a hurry, particularly my travelogue adventure to the Rainbow destination still lingers in my memory. It thus connects to my soul and brought curiosity to a desire to explore every bit of the trip.
I have always read some fascinating stories about South Africa. I know for real it is a destination for adventurous tourism depending on one's touristic demand from the tour operator in the package. However, what remains tourism constant is that the Rainbow destination offers amazing collections from the offerings of a viable destination. It is one of their cookie jars and they cherish it just like we cherish oil well in Nigeria.
The adventure began on the night of 2nd May, 2018 at Murtala Airport with media team enlisted by the host, South African Tourism. In Nigeria we have Ikechi Uko of ATQ, Sam Adeleke of Afrotourism, Seyi Adeyemo of IWA, Tosin Ajibade also known as Olori ,Kola Oshalusi, with notable Tour Operators in the country.
Aboard I asked myself, Why is my country not having an outstanding Airways like South Africa Airways? A flurry of questions in my mind. Alas, I have to parry those unavoidable questions on my mind and resolve to connect with the taste of excellence aboard South African Airways, even its services are extremely wonderful.
Finally we touched down at the O.R Tambo International Airport in Jonesburg at about 4am local time. I became fascinated about the Airport. It is a destination point that connects the rest of the world. Not just its size but the functionality of the airport. This moment I began to flashback to spot the difference.
We then proceeded to the Business Lounge waiting patiently for the next flight to our adventure destination. But before we make way for the local flight, we were at the business lounge for hours but we did not feel it, this is because the tourism treatment was just too superb. At this venue, the South African Tourism began to display what they know how to do best ─ hospitality!
At about 10 am, we proceeded to the boarding gate, en route George Airport, located in George Western Cape, South Africa. It was formerly known as P.W. Botha Airport, named after the State President who lived in this part of the country.
This airport was originally built in 1977 as an exact replica of the Keetmanshoop Airport in Namibia, however since expansion and changes, it doesn't look similar anymore. It has won awards for efficient operation two years running.
Here I officially met the tour operator assigned by the South African Tourism. The Makgale Tours personnel are extremely wonderful, full of efficiency, experts in tour operation in South Africa . An organization with the firm belief that gravitates toward excellence, Tour and Entertainment Operations for corporate companies,
individuals, families, couples and others to the best destinations across South Africa , Sub-Sahara
Africa to revitalize minds and experience different cultures, foods, countries
and people while on holiday.
Just on time with the tour details, from the George Airport we proceeded to Oubaai Hotel Golf & Spa which is located less than 10 minutes' drive from George Airport in an area renowned for its pristine beaches, indigenous forests and nature reserves. The stunning natural landscape is matched by the exceptional levels of service in one of the most beautiful luxury hotels South Africa has to offer. The hotel occupies an ideal position between the Indian Ocean and the majestic Outeniqua Mountains in Herolds Bay, George, on the Garden Route. Whether you visit Oubaai Hotel Golf & Spa for business, a relaxing break or to play a world-class golf course in a setting of outstanding natural beauty, your stay at one of the best hotels in South Africa is sure to be unforgettable. Truly unforgettable for Ayo Travelogue!This is where I met my Ghanaian friends that also came from Ghana via South Africa Airways and we became one, courtesy South Africa Tourism!
Here the first duty is to refresh after we had checked in, and awaiting us was lunch. Food tourism varieties as long as you can stomach it. The next day was a tour to Knysna corridor for both adventure and sightseeing. Knysna is a town with about 51,078 inhabitants in Western Cape Province of South Africa and in part of the Garden Route. I was brought into the know of this by Dee Lemon, a South African Certified tourist guide. He said to me that George Rex creative founder of Knysna who played a key role in its development lived to April 3,1839. No doubt the town is known for adventures! At the Knysna Rib Adventures, safety is their priority but our main focus is fun ,fun fun…says the Management.
During the Speedboat cruise you have got to open your eyes to experience the full wonder of this beautiful unspoilt environment. Fun all the way, the tide too was friendly with us.
Still at Knysna we also visited the Elephant Park where I got to know how they preserve and respect animals. They turn this natural park to sightseeing thereby generating revenue for them. I saw Keisha and Thandi and then Sally who is the Big Mama of the Elephant Park and matriarch of the herd. She appeared to be gentle but stern and always very concerned for the welfare of other Elephants. Here I learnt the speed of the elephant is 40km/h compare with White Rhino 45km/h, and Leopard which is 70km/h. At the park they tutored us on how to behave whenever you are with the elephants. It was a great experience to learn about elephant biology and its behavior.
We later retired to Obaai Hotel Golf and Spa for a rewind adventure.
I can never forget the Bungy Jumping adventure of 216M. It was terrific and horrific. I did it, although was afraid at the point of jumping…I had to conquer my FEAR to explore this act. Amazing testimonies! CONGRATULATIONS to those who also conquered their FEARS by jumping just as I did.
I would not dare forget my aewome experience with the quad bike. It was indeed adventurous navigating around the Eco-friendly pathway.
It is evidently clear that South Africa has developed all her tourism potentials and all of them are working. The truth is they now have a President who is suave and urbane in character, full of tourism passion and ever ready to work for the development of tourism across the continent.
Next on our adventure list was a visit to Cape St Francis Resort. Here I saw the friendly faces of a different resort. It is a real beach holiday with everything you need at your fingertips. It is just amazing, everything at the St Francis is a blend of nature. The food was out of this world, including the spa. I was immersed after which my hard body was romantically spa. At night the sea would communicate the wonder of nature especially if your room or apartment is close to the sea.
The Resort at Cape St Francis is a unique and exclusive paradise on the Southern Coast of South Africa which draws holiday makers from all over the world to enjoy the glorious beaches, excellent water-sport facilities, leisurely lifestyle and the magical beauty of the unspoilt surroundings. Cape St Francis with its historic lighthouse, built in 1878, is a tranquil eco-destination with mild temperatures and the longest sunshine hours on the coast. Cape St Francis Resort offers accommodation from luxury beach villas to upmarket beach cottages and affordable apartments.
The food tourism picnic with the team is unforgettable amidst other activities like beach walk, and spa. It was a fun adventure package by South Africa Tourism.
The next outline was Port Elizabeth Airport where we connected the next flight to Durban, the destination for the 2018 Africa's Travel Indaba. At the Port Elizabeth, the check in was damn easy. I discovered here that everything was just working. Aboard sitting at the exit corner, this gave a good opportunity to see the tourism landscape of South Africa adorning beautiful vegetation, and the assemblage of hill formation. I met new friends from Zimbabwe. One of them enquired to know whether we have good adventurous spots in Nigeria as I could see they really wanted to visit Nigeria. She got curious after telling her I am from Nigeria. Indeed, we have good adventurous spots in Nigeria. And Animal Game Reserve park? Yes, yes, Intoned. We have got Yankari Game Reserve, Lekki Conservation Centre just to mention a few. Destination Marketing? Like Jimi Disu of Classic FM, it is a story for another day!
Finally, we arrived at Durban for the real action. Kudos to Makgale Tours for its efficiency during the tour to SA. One of its personnel is Linda who goes ahead to make proper arrangement for the group. At the King Shaka International Airport, We were greeted with Zulu music rendition. So entertaining. I cherish their cultural animal-skin costume. Their baritone voice was deep and magnetic. I could not help but dance to the rhythm.
After jollying over a welcome drink; and exchanging words with one another, we then moved to connect the tour bus to UShaka Marine World which is a 16-hectare 40-acre, a theme park which was opened on 30 April 2004 in Durban, KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. It comprises 5 sections: UShaka Sea World, UShaka Wet 'n Wild, UShaka Beach, UShaka Village Walk and, UShaka Kids World. It is located on the strip of land between the beachfront and the harbour. It was the first phase in the redevelopment of the Durban Point.
We were taken to Moyo Restaurant where I had a good meal. It is vital to say here that Moyo Restaurant at Ushaka in Durban exemplifies contemporary elite Africa and generates an exciting blend of design, food, and entertainment that seduces and thrills the senses. You will journey through the Southern Savannas, the East Coasts, the Northern deserts, and the Western jungles on a feast that will excite your taste buds, tantalized by the scent of coriander, rose petals, cumin, paprika and saffron spice. Divine a la carte menus and an extensive communal set menu that will transport you on an African cuisine adventure.
Next on the itinerary that evening of 7th May is a rush to the hotel with a quick preparation to attend Africa's Travel Indaba BONDay event scheduled for that evening. We got to Southern Sun at about 6.45pm, rooms allotted to each guest. I hurriedly checked in at my room at the 6th floor where I had to preview some happening activities. This time, whilst in my room appreciating the beauty of Durban, I had fifteen minutes to tidy up, descend to the venue as instructed by Mohammed of South Africa Tourism led team in a group chat.
It was a cool evening in Durban. We got to the venue on time, completed the necessary registration and straight to the business. BONDay is designed to provide educational sessions for attendees to learn more about the new industry trends that will ultimately contribute to the growth of their businesses. Lovers of food and drinks had a wonderful peck in order of varieties.
This is where some of us got the trademark of the event.
The next day is full swing of Africa's Travel Indaba. Many programs were outlined for the events. And every bit of it was colourful and educative. The speed Marketing sessions are part of many initiatives that will see travel and tourism exhibitors from across South Africa take centre stage to sell their products and services to buyers from across the world.
Exhibitors had five minutes to demonstrate to between 170 and 200 global buyers that, as entrepreneurs they understand how to operate, market and package their offerings in line with local and global trends.
After Africa's Travel Indaba, we said goodbye to Durban, the largest city in the South African province of KwaZulu-Natal and the third most populous in South Africa after Johannesburg and Cape Town.
And back to JOZI OR JO'BOURG as it is fondly called.
Commonly known as Jo'burg or Jozi, this rapidly changing city is the vibrant heart of South Africa. Our exploration in Jozi was greatly cool. After the first taste at the South African Airways Business Lounge, it was another detour back to Jozi at O.R Tambo International Airport. The flight was smooth. This time, to African Pride hotel by Marriot where we also had a welcome wine taste. All was properly arranged and well-tailored for you to have a nostalgia.
Khomotso, the head of tour, whose name is pronounced almost like my surname Omotoso, announced in style that whilst sorting out your rooms, we would want you guys to have lunch at the finest dining of African Pride Hotel now.
Like a saying after a good lunch one can forgive anybody, even one's own relations. The rest is for another time. Checking in at the 3rd floor of the hotel appealed to my soul. I got another pleasant surprise from Tania & Team. Real.Choco.
No doubt the trip to South Africa is rewarding and quite unforgettable in my tourism journey. I met wonderful people who I could not have met unless I come to Indaba. The event has enabled me to have business contacts aplenty and opened up my travelogue opportunities in South Africa.
From 2nd to 12th of May 2018, the trip to South Africa will forever remain an adventurous journey in totality.
I will like to use this platform to specially show gratitude to the entire South African Tourism team. Mr. Hloni Pitso, Regional Manager for West Africa, Muhammed fondly called MO, and Jennifar Awoh. We appreciate your tourism support to Travelogue Communications Ltd.

These chocolate cereal and banana cupcakes are my take on morning breakfast of cereal and milk transformed into a delectable cupcake. Made with chocolate cereal sponge and topped with a fruity banana buttercream frosting, these cupcakes are the perfect way to start your very first morning of 2019.
Watch the video for Chocolate Cereal and Banana Cupcakes
It's 2019! Already! I still can't believe an entire year has raced past us! All of 365 days, done and dusted and now we begin a new cycle! Full of hopes, dreams and resolutions! I'm pretty sure the fitness resolution gets renewed every year but we will be more realistic this time, kay? 💁🏽♀ Let's start the first morning of 2019 with breakfast, because it's the most important meal of the day and must NOT be skipped! Roger that? That's why, I have here for you, these incredibly light and fluffy chocolate cereal and banana cupcakes! There's fruit in there, so you can rejoice, you're making a (relatively) healthier choice!
How to make Chocolate Cereal Cupcake Sponge
It's a fluffy vanilla cake batter to which I've added an abundance of my favourite chocolate cereal. This is the one I'd eat most mornings before school. Although I'm quite wary of breakfast cereal because of its ridiculously high sugar content, I could have cared less about it back in the day! You don't have to add chocolate, you could add absolutely any of your favourite cereal or a combination of all your favourite ones in it too! I'd pick chocolate over anything else especially if I have to start my day with it, so I decided to make these into chocolate cereal and banana cupcakes!
Adding the cereal flavours your cupcake in a way that it magically tastes like eating cereal with a different texture! Break this cupcake apart and pour a glass of milk over it and you wouldn't be able to tell the difference. But we like pretty looking things, don't we! And how can we forget the fruit? We need a fruit to have a healthy start to the day! So, instead of simply adding it into the cupcake, I decided to flavour my buttercream frosting with banana!
How to make Banana Buttercream Frosting
Needless to say, you may have guessed what frosting I've opted for! The boiled milk buttercream frosting, with all its versatile bells and whistles helps you flavour the frosting with your favourite fruit or herb and the resulting frosting is stable, silky smooth and undeniably delicious! I've added pureed banana to the milk and sugar mix and then followed the same process of chucking in the flour and boiling the mix until it forms a pudding! What a treat for your senses!
I hope you make these chocolate cereal and banana cupcakes! They're so stunning, look pretty and taste incredible!

LinkedIn filed for an initial public offering in January 2011 and made its debut on the stock market four months later on May 19. In December 2016, LinkedIn was acquired by Microsoft for approximately 26.2 billion U.S. dollars, making it Microsoft's most expensive acquisition to date. LinkedIn results were folded into Microsoft's Product Revenue and Service and Other Revenue segment. LinkedIn generates revenue from three different sources: hiring solutions are the largest contributor to the company's revenue, followed by advertising and premium subscriptions. LinkedIn's annual segment revenue in 2018 amounted to over 5.26 billion U.S. dollars.
Members can utilize the network to research people and companies, to connect with past business associates and colleagues as well as to build new relationships with influencers. In contrast to many other social networks, LinkedIn enables users to see who recently viewed their profile – a feature that most internet users find very helpful in fostering networking contacts.
LinkedIn is deemed as a very effective tool for online recruiting with a near-universal usage amongst social recruiting channels. According to industry statistics, LinkedIn has the highest utilization rate in successfully placing a candidate.

The fate of Marcus
A downloadable game for Windows and Linux
The fate of Marcus is an exploration game, made with cubes.
The fate of Marcus
A story driven, audio-visual exploration game taking place in a voxels' composed world. In each game, you discover a brand new world, procedurally generated, in which notes from a previous explorer are hidden, telling his story.
The player follows the story of Marcus through his notes scattered all over the world. Marcus was a bored gardener, and when he saw an ad about a space travel to establish a society on another planet, he jumped at the opportunity and boarded right away.
The world, made of voxels, is composed of forests, cliffs, rivers, and flowers (yes, I love flowers, so you will see a lot of them in the game). I tried to recreate a realistic environment through dynamic fog and wind, affecting both flowers and water. Each time the game start up, a brand new world is generated (but the progression of the player is kept, no worries).
Note : it isn't mandatory to follow the storyline by collecting Marcus' notes, you can just explore the world while listening to the restful soundtrack, I tried to make a game which could help people to relax after a hard day of work. :)
There is an in-game tutorial (because it's cool) to explain the commands, but here they are (in case you want to skip it) :
- WASD to move on qwerty keyboard, ZQSD on azerty
- Escape to get back your mouse (the game will try to eat it because it loves mouse)
- the god mode can be activated using... wait, actually there is no god mode, forget that
- Space is used to jump
- U to run/walk
- Zoom with Q (qwerty), A (azerty)
- Stop/Play music with O
- Start putting a bloc with E, move it around with WASD (or ZQSD), validate with E (or abort with R)
- Keyboard and mouse support
- A new world each time you launch the game !
- A story told through notes
- And cookies ! wait no, we don't have cookies
Configuration needed to run the game
- 64 bits computer
- OpenGL 3.3 and later is required
- At least 1GB of RAM

Rule 49. If it exists, there's a blog for it. Occasionally, one gets missed …
This was a real conversation I had with a friend last night, who I'll call ConspiracyTheorist for the purpose of this post.
Princess Stomper: Where's that from?
ConspiracyTheorist: Someone linked it on the Foetus forums
ConspiracyTheorist: It has to be a joke. Notice he's wearing black shoes!
Princess Stomper: But he has a cat and that needs … littering
Princess Stomper: Arm and Hammer cat litter. For his cat.
ConspiracyTheorist: I would've thought that,
ConspiracyTheorist: but I've never seen the kitty litter brand
Princess Stomper: You can just make out a cat on the side of the box
ConspiracyTheorist: It definitely is a joke!
ConspiracyTheorist: Someone on the forum said he's probably making a joke over that.
[someone on the forum: It looks like JG might be taking the piss outta this shot… maybe ?]
ConspiracyTheorist: I thought you'd be amused by the picture
Princess Stomper: but Danzig's whole thing is "why does anyone give a f*** that I am buying kitty litter for my cat"?
[Glenn Danzig: Hey, you know what, why do people even care? Why are they wasting their lives on this? (laughs)]
Princess Stomper: Oh. Well, I appreciate you bringing it to my attention 😀
ConspiracyTheorist: I think the joke is over the fact that people are making a "deal" out of it
Princess Stomper: Eh, I'm lost 🙂
Princess Stomper: It's like celebrity pics of people shopping. Who cares? Celebrities eating!
ConspiracyTheorist: It's a parody photo
Princess Stomper: Seriously, someone wants to show me a pic of JGT eating, and I'd be like … um … why are you showing me this?
ConspiracyTheorist: either way, I thought the orange looked ridiculous too but I interpreted it as intentional
Princess Stomper: have you seen the paisley pic? That's way worse
Princess Stomper: It's weird – you'd think he'd be an Autumn with that colouring, but I think he's a Winter
ConspiracyTheorist: don't talk fashion with me, I barely know how to dress myself
Princess Stomper: http://news.spring3d.net/news
Nice to see long time friend Jim Thirlwell visiting Spring – with orange crush T shirt and super scoop suitcase I couldn't resist a photo against the new 'Albers' wall. Check out his excellent new release Manorexia and upcoming performance of Steroid Maximus in Prospect Park on June 18th
ConspiracyTheorist: amusing coincidence then
Princess Stomper: yup. Has cat. Will litter
ConspiracyTheorist: musicianswithkittylitter.com
Princess Stomper: You need to start a blog.
Not enough kitteh? Check out Musicians With Cats. Yes, it exists.
