The classes, workshops and private instruction presented by Form is Function are results based. The descriptions detail the goals, purpose and impact of the session. A list of activities, equipment used or body parts supposedly "worked" as description can be worse than useless. It can distract from the only important aspect of the class: the result.
Lunch Time Physical Practice – These classes are designed for busy people to wedge in exercise that is maximally time efficient and tuned to their goals and needs. Come in at any point during the class times and stay however long you like. One of the reasons this works is most people need and want very similar results. LTPP approximates the Physical Literacy class.
Physical Literacy – Physical Literacy is a term used often by my teachers Ron Jones and Gray Cook. I doubt if the idea originated with either of them. I will bet physicians in the ancient world were discussing physical literacy five or six thousand years ago. PL is a foundation of the indispensable basics. Being able to do a correct push-up is physical literacy. At least seeing a correct push-up is an important step in the process. Being able to control your own body in basic tasks is physical literacy. In this class we make sure people can do the things they should be able to do. Students who are very adept and athletic are given progressively more challenging drills.
Circuits & Ladders – These are ways of arranging physical training in order to challenge the mind and body to adapt to change. In circuits we change exercises rapidly, and also circle back around to give the student many chances to improve in the session. Ladders are progressive changes in volume or intensity, while doing an exercise. Weight ladders are changes in the weight of an implement, rep ladders are changes in the repetition count of successive sets of exercise. Beginners are given thorough training in technique and form at each station of circuits or "rung" of the ladders, before they are allowed to move on. These sessions will surprise you in how much exercise gets done in a short time.
Russian Kettlebell Lifting in the Park – Form is Function has run this class for six years in the warm months. Now we return to the beautiful and atmospheric Pioneer Park in Nevada City. Our equipment choices are limited to what we can transport into the park for each class. That is why the class is named for our main implement. The good news is; with a small pile of kettlebells we have built many athletes of epic abilities. This year the course is even better: safer, faster and more dramatic in results. Running from May 1st to October 1st for 2019, these classes change lives. Over the summer we will also teach unique Soviet/Russian calisthenics and flexibility training. We will also bring in occasional "guest" equipment: extra heavy kettlebells, barbells, dragging sleds, Indian clubs, Western wands and more.
The Seven Pillars of Movement Wisdom – 7 Pillars is perhaps more fluid and changeable than simple, rigid programs like Easy Strength or Walking Through Walls. The 7 Pillars are: Alignment, Awareness, Timing, Tension, Relaxation, Breath, Gaze & Emotion. Yep that's eight. These are different from the original course, and we may change them again in order to serve our students more effectively. 7 Pillars starts with basic exercises and is adjusted each session according to the goals, needs, limitations and progress of the students. 7 Pillars is comparable to the very conceptual, Destruction of Illusions course. Every class addresses to some degree all 7 pillars. We do not practice variety for entertainment. Students finish this course with substantial increase in full body strength and improvement in all athletic qualities. They have a clear awareness of their own physical competence and confidence.
Easy Strength – Form is Function has operated this course, with constant improvements, since 2012. ES is based on material of the same name developed by world class strength coaches Dan John and Pavel Tsatsouline. In this program we practice the five basic human movements: hip hinge, squat, push, pull, and gait. We also do slow and fast lifts. The exercises, the set and rep schemes, even the length of rest periods, when to lift and when to rest, are precisely laid out for the student. People who like to turn off their front brain and train entirely in the athletic body love this course. Those who are used to the frenetic, awkward stumbling of typical exercise classes at more mainstream facilities may feel in unfamiliar territory at Easy Strength. Those people will also be shocked at how fast they make unexpected breakthroughs in all athletic qualities in short order at ES. The course is ideal for beginners. It focuses on building a basic foundation of strength. The inclusion of 100 to 200 repetitions of kettlebell fast lifts, performed in high intensity interval, provides sufficient speed practice and heart and lung challenge for maximally healthy and well rounded exercise. We do Easy Strength in group classes twice a year for a couple months.
Peaceful Warrior Conditioning – This class is designed specifically to support the practice of Aikido, and other martial arts. Strength, speed, balance, mobility & flexibility, stance, breath, heart & lung capacity and injury-proofing are all addressed to create a foundation which makes Aikido safer and easier to learn. PWC improves the stability of our student's knees and resilience of shoulders, places where Aikido practitioners tend to collect injuries. The energy expenditure profile of the class also prepares students to attend Aikido classes immediately after. The students go to their Aikido energized, not exhausted. The course is designed with steady input from Sensei Frank Bloksberg and other high ranking Aikido instructors since 2011. You do not have to be an Aikido practitioner to attend.
Training for the Strength Sports – TSS is a session set aside for Form is Function athletes competing in the strength sports. These are, Strongman and Strongwoman sport, Scottish Highland Games, Circus strongman, powerlifters and others. We have had snowboard racers, actors, dancers, cage fighters and other martial artists as well. All are welcome to train with us. Realize you will be doing whatever our athletes are doing that night.
Curvy Girl Athletics – This course will soon be offered to our women only. The instructors will be Form is Function female staff. It focuses on the physical ability and well being of women. CGA is a natural evolution at FIF, moving the "fitness" conversation further away from a narrow, appearance centered or weight loss narrative, to a focus on true health and useful physical ability. It is a safe space where women support each other speaking and working very frankly, on the physical issues that concern them, without the distraction of male dominated cultural bias. CGA supports all the varied athletic ambitions of women and girls, professional, amateur and recreational. We do this by providing top, proven world class instruction in sport specific strength and conditioning, injury prevention, mental and emotional aspects of competition, nutritional support and more. CGA is not about weight loss, it is not about "fat and fit." It is about avoiding pitfalls on the modern American "fitness" landscape, and about building a better physical life.
Total Bad Ass – TBA was developed when I allowed a group of skilled and motivated students to do as many hip hinge pattern type exercises as they wanted followed by as many squatting pattern movements as they wanted in class. My job was to insure correct alignment, technique and intensity. I would fill in the remaining time with whatever exercise I thought the students needed in the moment to complete their practice of health and athleticism. People became very strong, powerful and resilient in every way. The students were mostly women who knew each other well and used to call each other "Bad Ass" as a high compliment. That was years ago. We run the course today as originally designed.
Gorilla Strength – This program often follows immediately after Walking Through Walls. GS is an excellent companion to WTW as it moves that centered, foundational, ground based strength out to the limbs, hands and feet. Gorilla Strength has more range of movement, more variety in speed, movement and stance. A substantial portion of GS is performed with the feet off the ground. Students who complete WTW and GS in sequence tend to have a level and range of strength and power very few people have seen or understand.
Walking Through Walls – is a term I first heard from coach Steve Helmecki. It is a kind of implacable or unstoppable physical power, centered on broad foundation. I picture students who complete this program as supremely strong in all basic human movement and posture, and supremely confident in that strength. The program is simple, the choices are few, the weights are heavy. There is little attention paid to endurance, muscle mass or other extraneous qualities. It is a program to be followed for a limited time, 2 or 3 months. WTW builds a superb, broad and solid foundation for the successful execution of more sophisticated athletic objectives.
Destruction of Illusions – This course destroys illusions. For instance: the illusion that some people just can not or will not be strong, powerful and athletic. Another illusion we destroy is the common belief that effective exercise must be complex or sophisticated. The delusion that high performance athletics are predicated on high injury risk is also shattered. Students progress swiftly in all basic athletic qualities: strength speed, power, stamina, heart and lung capacity, and in all basic human movements.
Strength Farm – This session is named for the local farmers who come to this class seasonally. Some of our work is designed as antidote to the compensations that hard working farmers develop. Other parts of Strength Farm develop directly the high level of full body strength/endurance needed by the farmers every work day.
Exercise and Mother Russia – Designed especially for the new and expectant mothers at The Nest in Grass Valley CA. This session has been jointly taught by two instructors: Amy Zuhlke and chief instructor Eric Kenyon, both parents of young children. The aim of Mother Russia is to make the lives of new parents easier by teaching correct lifting, better body alignment, and better decision making concerning exercise and physical health.

Cabochon Large Oval Amber and Sterling Silver Drop Earrings
A beautiful and classically stylish pair of Amber & Silver earrings.They have a stirrup back making them very secure.
Hand crafted on Saltspring Island by Alvaro Sanchez. B.C. Drops - 1 inch. See matching Pendant.
Amber was believed to be a powerful talisman by the Vikings. Stories of the magical powers of this fossilised tree resin, washed up on the shores of the Baltic, go back to pre-historic times. The tiny flaws contained within Amber are known as inclusions and are evidence of organic matter - some rare specimens containing insects are extremely valuable as most of the world's amber is in the range of 30-90 million years old.
Amber is believed to encourage creativity and encourage a sunny nature, as well as protecting the wearer from negativity.

23 days, 36 emails concerning fixtures, 12 UPS deliveries, 4 brushes, 3 cans of paint, and we are very close to fixing the leaky sink faucet.
All this begs the question, why when they designed this house did they put the nice large bath with the two sink vanity in the hall and the small water closet off the master bedroom. Perhaps because the house was built in the days of twin beds in the master bedroom and princess phones. Seriously, one needs to step outside our bathroom to change one's mind. But I digress.
Now that we have a cherry wood cabinet going in with a brown speckled granite top that we have chosen "antique bronze" fixtures to go on, the only closely matching light fixture we could find was a metal one with a lighter bronze finish. "Eclectic" comes to mind. Hopefully it will all come together when (God pray) it ever gets finished. Then there is the issue of a mirror.
Naturally our first choice would be wood but chances of matching the wood on the cabinet are nil and "close but no cigar" would be disastrous. So the next choice would be metal. Then we jump back into that melee. Hell, why not add a third metal into the scheme and give "eclectic" a new realm. The search for the mirror goes on - I'll spare you the details.
I took on the small window that needs major work done on the finish before it could be painted. After several hours of chemically stripping it which left me nauseated for several days, I sanded and cleaned it until I was happy with the results. Then I carefully taped the glass with the miracle blue tape that prevents the need of a razor blade to clean the mess left after the final paint job. I was pretty proud of myself. Now it was ready for the primer coat.
Not so fast. This morning my DH brings his rotary tool in and explains how he "thinks" using it to "finish" the job on the window will take care of the small areas that need to be cleaned up. Given my arthritic hands ache from sanding the minute joints and I am still green around the gills from the poisonous vapors given off by the stripping gel, I am offended. My initial thought is to go buy a new window and have it installed.
Last night my DH got the first coat of paint on the walls which made me think we could possibly be in the short rows of this project. Just call me optimistic. After all the plumber (ie the professional) comes tomorrow to finish this job. The final coat can go on the walls today and after a thorough cleaning of the floors and the plumber's work tomorrow the faucet will be fixed.
Just as I see the end in sight my DH heads into his office. He looks back at me, "What? I told you I have to work on our taxes." And he closes the door. So much for the final coat of paint.
When I go back into the bath (the seventh circuit off Hell) to work on the window, I hear that familiar worrisome noise - the drip drip drip drip of the leaky faucet. You know, if you just turn the handle a little harder it stops, but then that would be much too easy.

As part of my role as CTO at PureSec, I get to meet many organizations around the world and discuss serverless with architects, developers, analysts and so forth. I recently noticed that I can pretty much classify the people that I meet with (and who understand what serverless is) into two groups.
The first group, are people who know what serverless is, but feel it will be "contained" to only certain use cases – mostly related to the public clouds.
The second group, which I consider myself and my colleagues at PureSec to be a part of – are people who see serverless as the true natural evolution of modern software - a superior software design paradigm, which is bound to take over the majority of software projects that will be developed in the (not so far) future.
My brother-in-law, is a hardware-wizard. He builds hardware prototypes for a living – some of which are the craziest things you can ever imagine. From home automation systems, to robotic hands for surgeons. My brother-in-law loves to program FPGAs for a living, and I couldn't program an FPGA if my life depended on it. Every time I visit him, he ends up taunting me about how I don't understand real programming, or real software. For him – if you can't touch the hardware, let alone program it, you're an amateur.
I know what my brother-in-law thinks about serverless. It's that vague thing that happens 200,000ft. above the hardware that someone else built. For him, it's no different than object-oriented programming or any other kind of passing software fad. But he is missing the point – you see, he's in the first group of people...
True serverless believers (including yours truly), understand that serverless is not just another option for designing, building or deploying software. It's much bigger than that.
It's what software developers have been hoping for all along. A way to build software, without having to think about anything else. We want to build software without thinking about the hardware, or about how our software will scale, or how to deploy it, or even where to deploy it.
While serverless made it's first and most prominent appearance in public clouds, I really don't expect it to stay there for long. Just recently, we saw both IBM and Oracle offer frameworks for "DIY serverless" - aimed for private clouds. I trust IBM and Oracle - after all, these are two organizations that are closely coupled to the enterprise developer community.
Just look at how many options you have for developing serverless today:
Public Cloud:
- AWS Lambda
- Azure Functions
- Google Cloud Functions
- IBM Cloud Functions
Frameworks for DIY Serverless:
- OpenFaaS
- OpenWhisk
- Oracle FN project
- VMWare Dispatch
- Fission
- IronFunctions
- Gestalt
- WebTask
- WebLab
- Hook.io
- SpotInst functions
Different people think of serverless in many different ways - it seems to be a very emotional issue. For example:
Paul Johnson's post, which states that:
AWS defines serverless as: no server management, flexible scaling, high availability and no idle capacity.
A Serverless solution is one that costs you nothing to run if nobody is using it
I personally like what Ken Fromm wrote about serverless back in 2012, in his article "Why The Future Of Software And Apps Is Serverless"
The phrase "serverless" doesn't mean servers are no longer involved. It simply means that developers no longer have to think that much about them. Computing resources get used as services without having to manage around physical capacities or limits.
With regards to the "not having to pay for idle resources" statement - that's a terrific by-product of (current, public cloud) serverless, which probably helps to convince C-level managers to hop on the serverless wagon. It's definitely not the main incentive.
This pretty much sums what I believe as well. Having experienced how simple it is to develop and deploy a sophisticated system in less than 3 days using AWS lambda - I can't think of a better way to build modern software. Servers and hardware belong with IT folks.
Developers prefer serverless.

New season and new collections, who said lingerie is seasonal...
Buying has started again in the world of Lingerie, we are viewing collections and placing orders for Spring/Summer 2016, just like in the Ready to Wear fashion world, although I do struggle with this concept of Lingerie being seasonal. If you want to wear soft blush in winter, deep gem colours in the summer or florals in the fall why have the fashion world dictate to you whats seasonal for your undergarments. But I do have to follow the rules sometimes and this is one of those times and twice a year I place the vast majority of beautiful lingerie, loungewear, silks and swimwear orders that will scantly decorate the boudoir for the next few months. Although the majority of orders are dealt with like this, every week I place top up orders, and place the customer orders that have been taken that week in the boudoir. Offering this service is what sets Tallulah and other independent lingerie boutiques apart from the big soul-less and life-less department stores who are unable to offer this personal ordering service. Most of the time we have a collection in one colour, but it is available to order in many other colours, so we go through the lookbooks and catalogues with our customers and choose the perfect shade of Chantilly lace to support and look pretty or that will go perfectly under a particular outerwear outfit, making it the perfect foundation wear.
Although the vast majority of the orders are placed twice a year, they do not all arrive in the boudoir at once. I place them in a way that there will always be something new and exciting for our loyal Tallulah customers that visit the boudoir every month, something new to wink at them when they enter and go weak at the knees as they leave with their purple bag sealed with cream ribbon full of lingerie lushness.
In Tallulah this summer from Miss Mandalay and Rosa Faia decorating the boudoir with one of Tallulah's vintage blue suitcases.
Im starting the buying season off with swimwear, I have to admit… not my favourite collections to buy at all. There is no lace, silk or any of the embellishments that make my heart skip a beat when I see the collection for the first time or when it finally arrives into the boudoir, but it is important to have a beautiful well-fitted bikini or sexy and suitable for the occasion swimsuit, lets face it that when prancing around in public wearing practically nothing its best to do this showing off our best features and attributes hence a well cut and great fabric swimwear trousseau. Miss Mandalay is always great for the E cup and above (going to a GG) bikinis, nice under-wired halter tops always with a choice of bottoms and with great prints. For the suit it has to be the fantastic MiricleSuit and with their tag line being (said in an over exaggerated twanged American accent) "Look 10lbs lighter in 10 seconds" who wouldn't want one of these?! Im thinking of having a glance at the Seafolly collection this season, I know its widely available- as in it can be bought with ease online and from the dreaded department stores, but I'm really quite liking the look of the collection on offer…You will just have to wait and see what choices I make for Tallulah. Every year in the summer I visit some of my dearest friends in one of my favourite places in the world, Venice. They have a rather sexy speed boat, so we go out every day and pitch up at the local beach and just relax. Now as we know the Italians are known for their trendy trend setting fashion ways, so every year I take my 'boat outfits' very seriously and make sure I pack a few new bikinis so I know first hand how important a well-fitted swimwear wardrobe is, and if you hadn't guessed by know, Tallulah is all about me! Below is the house we stay in, its just amazing. The shutters are a similar shade of emerald green to the Simone Perele lingerie set I am about to introduce you to ...
Very excitingly new collections arrived from the gorgeous Simone Perele this week. Mezmerising Emerald lace is the new colour in one of Tallulah's top selling collections called 'Celeste'. Infact if you are a regular Tallulah customer, chances are you have had this in at least one of the colours it has been offered in the past. We always have in stock the ivory, black and 'nude' and due to this collection available in 30 backs it really is a great seller for us.
Another collection to arrive recently is 'Backstage' a new one from Simone Perele in the most amazing deep ink navy blue. I really love navy lingerie, it is a great alternative to the traditional black, please do not take that out of context thou, I love black lingerie too! But something about this collection actually makes my heart have a little flutter, it must be something to do with the colour, the embroidery, the shell like scalloping edge and soft fine quilting detail of diamond shapes, it is also available to order in beautiful blush and to me this just puts the 1920s in my mind. It has an unpadded half cup and padded plunge shape bra with a couple of choices on the bottom, then the piece thats makes this collection so special is the deep waist-cincher style suspender belt. I do wish a belt was offered in more lingerie sets. The thing that is particularly great with this belt is that it can be worn as outerwear as a waspie over a dress or 2 piece.
Just look at that beautiful scallop quilted detail and embroidery, finished with a bow in the middle.
Hope you have a wonderfully hot, sticky and sweet week as it looks like that great big golden ball will be in the skies. Be sure to swing by the boudoir to see for your self the beautiful new collections that have arrived this week or to look through any of the look books to place your very own order, chilled water will be served all week, and the boudoir is on the un-sunny side of the street so its always cool for when your ready to strip off! Here is Something sweet from Venice for you to suck on (wink wink).
So until next time, T x

There wasn't much to like about the 9-0 loss to the Packers on Sunday, but the Jets can take some joy in the fact that it looked like Darrelle Revis is back in form.
The cornerback's hamstring problems were nowhere in sight as he helped force Aaron Rodgers into a miserable day throwing the ball. It looked like the same guy who established his own island fiefdom last season and that's worth a smile even when the rest of the team crashes and burns in such spectacular fashion.
Revis's return to fitness came right in time for a matchup with the kind of receiver that made his holdout such a big deal in the first place. Calvin Johnson, a.k.a. Megatron, is waiting in Detroit for Sunday's matchup with Revis and it should be an awfully good one.
Johnson, despite playing with three different quarterbacks this season, has caught eight touchdowns already this season. At 6'5" and 239 pounds, he's nearly impossible for any cornerback to guard straight up so it will be interesting to see how the Jets choose to approach him come Sunday.
They could and probably will give Revis some safety help, but the rest of the Lions tight ends and receivers will demand attention from the team's defensive backs as well. Detroit has thrown the ball 145 more times than they've ran it and they might not even bother trying to get the ground game moving against a Jets defense that hasn't offered much to opposing running backs this season.
That would seem to set up well for them, but it would be nice to see the Jets start generating a more consistent pass rush to help their defensive backs do the job. One of the big differences between the Packers and the Jets last Sunday was the way Green Bay got pressure on Mark Sanchez while using just three or four men. The Jets haven't found a way to do that this season, which has helped the opposition convert a high overall percentage of their third downs.
Not that they'll get the credit for doing anything if Johnson is quiet on Sunday. Revis will be the beneficiary of all praise because he's the guy who has been deemed the key to the defense. It's probably just fine with the rest of the defenders if that happens because a quiet day for Megatron almost certainly means a win for the Jets.

Although funerals are difficult times for family and friends, they should also be memorable with the celebration of a loved-one's life. The directors and staff at Family Funeral Care have spent their professional lives comforting and providing support during these meaningful occasions.
At Family Funeral Care, we offer the highest quality facilities at prices to fit anyone's budget … whether it is simple or elaborate, burial or cremation, services in your home or ours. There is absolutely no detail too small or too large when it comes to providing our families with the service they desire.
The death of a family member or close friend is a significant time in the lives of many. When entrusted with the needs of the families we serve, our goal is to ensure that your family and loved one is cared for with the utmost dignity and respect. We strive to find ways to incorporate personal expression with many of the customs and ceremonies of different cultures. Given the diverse group of families that we serve and the different options that we provide, there are many appropriate choices available when it comes to funeral services at Family Funeral Care.
At Family Funeral Care, the following benefits are available at no additional charge:
National Transferability
Our prearranged services are fully transferable and will be honored by another provider in our North American network. If you move more than 75 miles from your original place of residence and the Family Funeral Care address, your prearranged plan moves with you.
Bereavement Travel Services
Our staff has secured significant savings on airfares throughout the United States, as well as certain international destinations (including Canada) to assist family and friends in making travel arrangements to attend a funeral or memorial service. As a benefit for selecting Family Funeral Care, your family and friends are eligible to receive special savings on airfares offered through the Bereavement Travel Program to attend a funeral, memorial, or graveside service.
Personal Planning Guide
This valuable booklet will document your entire funeral or cremation wishes, including a particular reading or song or even flowers you prefer. It also documents additional family information such as military history, family heritage, estate information, insurance coverage, and an inventory of personal property. The Personal Planning Guide is an important reference document for your family and heirs.
Child/Grandchild Protection Program*

In our ever-forming church community, stories are becoming the rhythm by which we live, breath, and understand our day to day lives. Jesus lived the world's greatest story. Jesus told the most interesting, enduring, and enlivening stories. By his love, we want to live and tell the same stories.
In our first season gathering together, we have been going through a sermon series called the "Story of God". This series has focused on Jesus' story in the Holy Scriptures, from Genesis to Revelation; and how we can find our story in God's grand story. By looking at Jesus' love, grace, and presence in The Bible, we have continued to find our identity as a community whose story is inextricably tied to the life, death, burial, resurrection, ascension, and everlasting presence of our Lord on the throne. This is the gospel. This is good news!
Stories Matter
Together, we have been leaning into the importance of sharing our own stories. Everyone's story matters! Whether our stories have been easy, unbearable, or somewhere in between; there is no person whose story does not matter to God. As a result, everyone's story should matter to us. Jesus shows his care for all of us, as we share and hear the many different ways we have experienced Him working in our lives. He has faithfully drawn close to us in our pain, has saved us from brokenness, and has moved mightily in and through our lives. This is the source of our hope. The God of the universe being Lord of all, yet deeply caring about who we are. Each and everyone of us.
The late Tupac Shakur once wrote a beautiful poem as a high school student in New York City, and titled it "The Rose That Grew From Concrete". He asked and hoped for the following:
Did you hear about the rose that grew from a crack in the concrete?
Proving nature's law's wrong it learned to walk without having feet
Funny it seems, but by keeping its dreams it learned to breathe fresh air
Long live the rose that grew from concrete when no one else even cared
Jesus is the rose. He is bursting forth in the world through the dark, cold, and cracked concrete of our lives. He faithfully lived a sinless life, and bestowed righteousness to us through his death and resurrection. When no one else cared, and even we didn't care, he broke down the walls of brokenness between us and reconciled us to God. And his story didn't just stop there.
Even now, He is making all things new (Revelation 21:4) and refuses to let us believe the lie that our stories are written in unbreakable cement. He is new life bursting forth and is on a cosmic rescue mission to affirm us of his love, heal us from our pains, and to restore us into the beauty that we were created for. We are his children, and like any great parent, he wants to hear and know our stories...our beautiful, easy, difficult, broken, redeemed, and hopeful stories.
In the next couple weeks we are going to look at elements of our story in God's story. Please feel free to subscribe to our community newsletter to stay with us as we tell stories that help us to find Jesus in our stories:
• Individually
• In Our Community
• In Jesus' kingdom
In Jesus' love and grace,
A Seattle Church

Am I a Candidate?
Most people are good candidates for procedures in aesthetic dentistry. At Major Dental Clinics, we utilize modern advancements in computerized dentistry to allow our patients to customize their smiles to their liking. Our top quality prosthodontists use the most advanced technology to restore form and function to every aspect of our patients smile. For this reason, patients who are looking to enhance their smiles are first subjected to a comprehensive exam, in order to address any underlying oral health issues. After a patient has been cleared, the aesthetic procedure may begin.
You can consider yourself a candidate for aesthetic dentistry if you have experienced any of the following:
- Chipped, cracked, worn, or missing teeth
- You have gaps in your smile
- Teeth are too small or too long
- You have a "gummy" smile
- You are unhappy with the shape of your smile
- Teeth are discolored, or the shade of your teeth is not to your liking
- You are experiencing bite issues
While many dentists advertise themselves to be "aesthetic or cosmetic dentists", there is only one specialty that receives post graduate training in aesthetic and restorative dentistry. Prosthodontics is an ADA recognized specialty that specializes in aesthetic and restorative dentistry. Although there are talented dentists that can do quality aesthetic dentistry, patients take a risk when receiving medical treatment from someone who has not been professionally trained. We aim to educate our patients and allow them to make a well informed decision for themselves.
Some common aesthetic procedures are:
- Smile Makeovers
- Porcelain Veneers
- Bonding and Composite Veneers
- Metal-free Crowns
- Gumlifts
- Clear Orthodontics
- Teeth Whitening
The results of smile enhancing procedures can be quite dramatic. Patients have been known to experience newfound confidence and eagerness to smile in public after their aesthetic procedures. If your dental conditions are preventing you from smiling, we strongly recommend that you take advantage of our complimentary consultations with a Major Dental Clinics specialist. Our prosthodontists will discuss all of your aesthetic and restorative treatment options and provide you with the knowledge to make an informed decision regarding your treatment.

A green space and gathering place will be created out of the ashes of a restaurant destroyed in an arson fire in 2011, according to a recent briefing for the Friends of the Black River.
Town of Albion Chair Leonard Olson and supervisors Tom Tomter and Dan Hannan presented an update of the park project planned for the former Rustic Mill restaurant site located on State Hwy. 54, south of Black River Falls.
Before being remodeled in the 1960s, the Rustic Mill was the Charter Oak Mill. Built in the mid-19th century, the grist mill ground grain for area farmers.
"A lot of us have good memories of the Rustic Mill," FBR member Grady Gutknecht said.
After the fire, charred wreckage remained piled on the site until this year. Acting on complaints the wreckage was a public nuisance and an eyesore, the town pressed the county to allow it to remove the debris.

Jack Suess, vice president of information technology and the university's chief information officer states "UMBC has been using interactive video conferencing at an enterprise level since the 90's". What UMBC was lacking was a state of the art video conferencing solution that could be used for multi party meetings, on multiple operating systems, and from any device. Additionally they wanted a solution that could be used campus wide and which would operate with their fixed telepresence equipment.

This month, Colorado Public Radio is holding its annual instrument pledge drive, "Keep the Music Alive," to help bring instruments to public schools. It's a great program that lets musicians donate old instruments to public schools, where they'll get far more use than they do sitting in a closet. While the parameters are relatively wide open for donations, there are a few select instruments we're guessing they're probably not interested in. 5. Double-neck Guitar The double-neck guitar isn't nearly as popular as it once was, which might mean you still have an old one lying around your apartment, left over from the time Yngwie Malmsteen shred your brain to pieces and forced you to go to the store and buy one. It's a difficult instrument to play, seeing as how there are two necks, so we won't fault you for never learning how to play it. Still, we're pretty sure even the most desperate of elementary schools aren't interested in trying to teach double-neck guitar lessons. 4. Recorder The recorder is the most widely used, cheapest instrument imaginable. That's why public schools already have hundreds and hundreds of them lining the closets, filling the basements and buried underneath their playgrounds in bunkers. It's nice of you to think you should donate your five-dollar plastic instrument, but we're pretty sure they're not interested. But don't worry: You can always convert it into a bong. 3. Rainstick Yeah, we've been to that store in Boulder, too, but let's be perfectly honest here: A rainstick is probably the worst thing visitors can buy on their vacation to Colorado. That's all beside the point, though, because if you take the time to actually imagine an elementary school band playing a collection of rainsticks, you should be convinced to just leave yours in storage where it belongs. Unless you're hoping to hear the soundtrack of the apocalypse. 2. Keytar Just because you're nostalgic for the '80s doesn't mean a bunch of little kids are going to be. In fact, they most certainly won't be, unless they've somehow managed to be held back for 25 years. The keytar is quite possibly one of the most unnecessary instruments for any public school, as we're pretty certain they have no need for '80s pop. If you do have one lying around not getting any use, though, consider donating it to a random thirty-something on South Broadway on Friday night. 1. Cat Piano The cat piano is probably our favorite instrument of all time. Invented by some crazy loon sometime in the 16th century, it's basically a box filled with cats. When a key was pressed, a lever would pull on one of the cats (tuned, of course) tails. You might be tempted to make your own using stray cats from the alley -- you know, killing two birds with one stone -- but if you do decide to do such a thing, please make sure you get them spayed and neutered. Actually, never mind, there is no public school in the country desperate enough to perform "Over the Rainbow" on a collection of cat pianos.

Path Of Exile 3.6: Item Synthesis Guide(2)
by, 05-21-2019 at 12:41 AM (85 Views)
Strength and Other Stats in Numbers
Next would be the number of fractured mods the synthesized item will have. This depends on how many fractured mods the fractured items being used have. If all of them have the same number of mods, then the synthesized item will have the same number mods as the three items used.
However, if one or two items have one or two less fractured mod than the one with the most number of mods, the number of fractured mods on the synthesized item will be a toss-up. To save yourself from ending up with just one or less fractured mods than one or two of the fractured items you used, make sure they all have as many mods as each other.
By The Numbers
As for the fractured mods that will be carried over to the synthesized item, its going to be up to RNG. To increase your chances in getting the mod you want, get as many fractured POE Currency PS4 that share the same mod. With such a method, you get to choose which mods you want the synthesized item to have, thereby saving you the trouble of finding a particular item with the exact modifier or even set of modifiers you want.
Now, when it comes to the value of the implicit mods the synthesized item has, it depends on all the mods implicit or otherwise of a particular attribute from POE PS4 Currency all the fractured items. For example, if the synthesized item is going to have a life mod, if the fractured items dont give much life in total, then the same goes with the synthesized item. If it does, then it will.
Path of Exile: Synthesis finally gave players the chance to put together the items that suit them best while reducing RNGs influence at the same time. If they get it right, that is. Well, with these guidelines, you definitely will!
It has also been confirmed that world events using these dungeons and raids may occur in the WoW Classic. Links https://www.mmoah.com/poe-ps4-currency

My guest for this episode is Dr. Bernard Sweeney. He is the director of the Stroud Water Research Center in Avondale, Pennsylvania. There Dr. Sweeney and his team focus their research on all aspects of fresh water. Their work is unbiased, peer reviewed, and readily available to the public without charge.
After talking with Dr. Doug Tallamy, author of Bringing Nature Home, I took his suggestion to contact Dr. Sweeney and his team to discuss the proper width of, and species for, riparian corridors along streams and rivers. As someone whose home borders a stream, and a permaculture practitioner who seeks to care for the earth for myself and future generations of all life, I wanted to know the state of the current research for how to best handle protecting this waterway and to share that information with others so they might do the same for their own.
Within our conversation you will hear about Dr. Sweeney's background, which speaks specifically to this question, and the work he's done to confirm this. We also discuss his basic rules for establishing a riparian corridor and the importance of maintaining fresh water.
The Stroud Water Reseach Center provides numerous free resources for anyone interested in the issues of freshwater. Though they are located in Pennsylvania, they do work all over the world. I recommend you go and read the material available. You find yourself more knowledgeable and able to design a better world.

The full version of the NTX TaeKwon-Do Schools Constitution may be viewed by contacting Head Office (Click Here to Contact Us).
NTX Schools Head Office
All Policy decisions, events, media representation and Meetings are organised under the control of NTX TaeKwon-Do Schools Head Office. Students of NTX Schools are responsible to explain their actions inside the Dojang to Head Office. NTX Schools will try whenever reasonably possible to ensure that students will always be able to train as NTX Schools Students on the NTX Schools Curriculum at no financial loss to themselves.
Training Payments
Students may not train without correct payment of Fees, either at the Start of Class or by Monthly Standing Order. There are no exceptions to this and Students who are not up to date with their payments will be refused entry to the Class.
Please remember that if you take advantage of the discounts on our standing order system, particularly the family package, that you have signed and agreed to our terms and conditions. Below is a reminder of the procedure should your Students decide to discontinue training:-
- By signing our annual membership form, you have agreed to and are required to give 3 months notice, this means that when you give notice the 3 month notice you are still required to pay for the standing order upto the date that your membership expires, enabling venue and club costs to be met. This notice period applies regardless of the circumstances in which you decide to cancel your membership. NTX Schools cannot be held responsible for continued payments. Standing order payments are the account holders sole responsibility. Any payments made in error cannot be refunded under any circumstances so please ensure that your bank cancels the payment. If a student gives notice but continues to make regular payments then that place will be kept open until the payments stop.
- The place to train in TaeKwon-Do at a Class is precious with many of our venues being full to capacity. If you no longer want your place, this will be given to someone else. Some venues now operate on a waiting list system.
- Our instructors work very hard and often make many personal sacrifices to run all of the classes for your convenience, it would be respectful and courteous to inform us if your child leaves their training.
- Any individual who leaves without notice will still be contacted and fees collected in line with the terms and conditions.
- Please do not expect to take advantage of the great discounts and unlimited training options and not adhere to the terms, as this will not be tolerated.
Training Payment During Holidays
All fees are payable during all holiday times. Alternative venues will be provided to ensure continued training throughout the holidays. There may be odd weeks that we cannot access the venue and most primary schools are term time only. This is why fees are worked out to incorporate odd cancellations and the Christmas shutdown. Your training fee covers your membership and ensures that your place is held open. Failure to pay can affect the entire club making it difficult to pay the schools for venue hire and instructor costs. Anyone who defaults simply because they cant or dont wish to train over holidays will be chased for this and will have their membership cancelled. Please respect your instructor and make your payments on time.
Annual Membership
It is the responsibility of all Students to ensure that their "Annual Membership" subscription is up to date. To train with out of date "Annual Membership" is prohibited and could result in Dismissal from the Class. Renewal fees for this must be paid before the expiry date as indicated on the "Annual Membership Card". Please note that your Annual Membership Application clearly states that this is a non-refundable under any circumstances, therefore if you sign this form you agreeing to our terms. Should you or your child decide to discontinue training, you are not entitled to any refund of remaining membership.
To renew this, the Student must have demonstrated satisfactory progress by means of Regular Training and Attendance at Grading Examinations. Please note that the Instructor will not be permitted to renew "Annual Memberships" for Students that have not trained regualarly or have missed Grading Examinations without extenuating circumstances. In such circumstances, NTX Schools obliges the Instructor to discontinue that Student's Training at that Class.
Membership of NTX Schools is NOT TRANSFERABLE to any other Martial Arts Class, Gym or Sports Club. NTX Schools is not responsible for Injuries sustained by Students whilst training outside an approved NTX School or whilst not in the presence of an approved NTX Instructor. To Clarify further, Insurance purchases from NTX Schools for the purposes of training in TaeKwon-Do is ONLY VALID whilst training at an NTX TaeKwon-Do School in the presence of an NTX TaeKwon-Do Instructor.
Exam Fees
Grading exam fees are non-refundable. If your child is ill then please try to inform us 24 hours before. For any student who cannot attend the exam for unforeseen circumstances/illness we will carry over fees to the next exam. This also applies to any student who does not pass on the day, the following exam will be offered as a single free re-test.
Instructor Teams
Instructors work in Teams under the supervision of NTX Head Office. The teams are designed to ensure that a range of different teaching styles are utilised for the benefit of the Student. All Instructors within the team must fulfil the Insurance, DBS and Qualification criteria as laid out by NTX Head Office.
International Students
NTX Schools will not enter into negotiation with any individual, association, club, school or any other group of persons for the purpose of obtaining entry visa's or residency within the United Kingdom. We will not support or sponsor such applications in any way, and we refer all such parties to the United Kingdom Home Office.
Health & Safety
Training should not result in any injury or disablement of any kind. The Health & Safety Act 1974 prohibits training in an environment which could result in this. Classes may be cancelled or moved if Training Halls become unsuitable. It is a potential hazard if participants in any NTX Schools class have recently ingested large quantities of food or liquid or are suffering with a concurrent illness or injury. It is the responsibility of the Student and Legal Guardian if applicable, to inform the Instructor before training at the start of the Class, of any ongoing illness or injury which in any way may be hazardous to the student either before, during or after training, or which may put the student or other students or individuals at risk during training.
NTX Schools Students may ONLY perform destruction techniques on Boards under the supervision of 4th Degree Black Belt Grade or higher, at the Black Belt School. We strongly advise Student to NOT participate in this exercise at home.
Data Protection

"This is not a Sport"
Martial Arts training may not be suitable for everyone. It does not offer the informality of casual training, such as with Soccer, Rugby or Tennis. It trains both the Mental as well as the Physical Aspects of the Individual. If you require a Class to simply "Get Fit" or to train "Now and Again", then please look elsewhere. Please remember the following points: TaeKwon-Do is a Military Martial Art. It is not intended to be Convenient or Easy and should not be entered into as 'Fun'.
Skills must be acquired over time with repetitive training which may be difficult or physically tiring. You will not be at Black Belt standard after a few weeks of training and Perseverance, Dedication and Self Discipline are essential. Furthermore, Our equipment, clothing and training aids are modern and up to date, supplied by some of the best manufacturers available. NTX Schools makes every effort in being one of the best Martial Arts Schools around.
NTX Affiliations
We would welcome co-operation on events and training with other Instructors or groups. Please contact us with any proposals for scheduling of timetables.

Yesterday afternoon/evening Linus Walleij gave an enjoyable talk entitled "Fear and Loathing in the Media Transfer Protocol" at the Linux Foundation's Embedded Linux Conference (ELC) 2014 in San Jose. Linus is a very good speaker and appears quite comfortable in front of a crowd; his talk was highly informative and often sprinkled with humerous anecdotes.
For me the best part of the talk was the fact I had never heard of the MTP, so it was a great opportunity to learn something new.
MTP is an extension to the Picture Transfer Protocol (PTP). You know when you're connecting your USB device to a Linux host and the first thing the instructions you're following says is "make sure you put the device in 'mass storage' mode and not 'PTP'"? This talk is about that other protocol.
The gist of the MTP (and PTP) was to design a transfer protocol which would be robust enough to survive someone ripping out the USB cable connection in the middle of transfer. Additionally the MTP was designed to handle not only the media data itself (for example the video or the music) but also all the metadata associated with a particular object back in a day when mobile electronics didn't support sophisticated (hierarchical) file systems. So given a flat file layout, describe an album with tracks and provide titles, composers, performers, cover art, and other metadata associated with an object such that it can all be presented coherently to the user. The MTP also contains provisions for other operations too: such as telling a host what capabilities it has or what storage areas it contains.
From the sounds of it, implementing the MTP is the fine act of navigating a mine field while driving a large, half-working vehicle with a broken GPS. This work has been mostly plagued by a standard which came out late, to which neither device implementors nor host operating systems have adhered either before or after the specifications were drawn. As such, the code has many tricks and special cases as it tries to do the right thing in all situations. This is often the case when a device manufacturer only cares to get their product minimally working with a specific version of a specific OS. As such, Linus warned that your best bet is to try to get an old device working with older software, and a newer device working with newer software; trying to do the converse will either not work so well, or will fail altogether.
With the advent of Android, the MTP has been given a new lease on life; it isn't an old protocol anymore. There is much to do yet with MTP and help is appreciated. Linus mentioned this is entirely a hobby project for him, and would welcome new apprentices and/or co-maintainers.

Let $\cal C, \cal D$ be model categories. Hovey says in his monograph "Model Categories" that the homotopy category $\operatorname{Ho}(\cal C \times D)$ is isomorphic to $\operatorname{Ho}(\cal C) \times \operatorname{Ho} (\cal D)$, and that this is true for any (finite I assume) number of model categories.
Is this true in general? Let $\{ \mathcal C_i \}_{i \in I}$ be a family of categories, let $W_i \subseteq \operatorname{Mor} \cal C_i$ be families of morphisms and let $\mathcal C = \prod_{i \in I} \cal C_i$. Are the localisations $$\mathcal C\left[ \prod_{i \in I} W_i ^{-1}\right] \cong \prod_{i \in I} \mathcal C_i\left[W_i^{-1}\right]?$$
I can find a functor from the left to the right in general.
Is it at least true for infinite families of model categories?

They have used three receivers on nearly 60 percent of their plays through three games this season, including 14 with four receivers and 14 more with 5 last week against the Cardinals.
The spread attack helped quarterback Colin Kaepernick lead two long touchdown drives to open the game but San Francisco failed to score after that and lost for the second straight week.
There's been more passing so far this season.
NOTES: Davis was out at practice but did not participate in individual drills during the open media session. ... RT Anthony Davis (hamstring) was back at practice after missing the first three games. ... CB Tramaine Brock (toe) remains sidelined.
Part of that reliance on extra receivers had to do to injuries that sidelined tight ends Vernon Davis and Vance McDonald last week. But the 49ers also made a concerted effort this offseason to add more wide receivers after going much of last year with Anquan Boldin as the only reliable option at the position.
Whether it's because of injuries or new personnel, that philosophy is showing signs of changing in Harbaugh's fourth season as 49ers coach.
The 49ers used three or more wide receivers on just 22 percent of their plays in 2013, according to Pro Football Focus, including just three all season that had four or more wideouts.
With Davis possibly back this week after sitting out against the Cardinals with an ankle injury, the 49ers might not use it again. But it is in their arsenal and opposing defenses will have to prepare for it.
"We have a lot of great receivers," Kaepernick said. "It's going to depend on the mismatches."
The 49ers (1-2) used three or more receivers on nearly three-quarters of their plays in last week's 23-14 loss to the Arizona Cardinals after using those formations fewer than any other team a year ago.
While the rest of football seems to be moving to more wide-open offense and spread formations, Harbaugh's success at both Stanford and with the San Francisco 49ers has been built on power.
Instead of using as many little receivers as he can,NHL Jerseys China, Harbaugh has preferred to use formations with seven offensive linemen or three tight ends.
SANTA CLARA, Calif. (AP) — Jim Harbaugh has made a coaching career out of bucking convention.
The flip side of the spread attack is that it neutralizes star running back Frank Gore, who had 10 yards on six carries against the Cardinals. Gore has carried the ball just 35 times in three games, a significant drop from his usual usage.
"I don't think anything is surprising when you play against a Jim Harbaugh or Greg Roman team," Eagles coach Chip Kelly said. "They're going to use every weapon available to them. They're always working to gain an advantage. I wasn't surprised when they did it. It was one of those things you chuckle to yourself. They have another wrinkle now."
"There was some real positives there," Harbaugh said. "I thought the receivers played extremely good. Some strong catches,Wholesale NFL China Jerseys, run after the catch. Did a great job with ball-security. All those guys that were touching the ball. Colin, the whole team was competing. They played extremely hard. Colin made some big plays, extending plays, running with the football."
The spread formation has not led to those wins yet as the Niners have lost back-to-back games to Chicago and Arizona,Authentic Jerseys For Sale.
"Whatever works, I'm with it,Jerseys NFL Cheap," Gore said. "If it's passing, it's passing. If it's running, we run it. I'm willing to do whatever it takes to win."
But with Michael Crabtree healthy after missing 11 games a year ago with an Achilles' injury and the additions of Stevie Johnson, Brandon Lloyd and Bruce Ellington, the Niners have an abundance of threats outside that can add some variety to their attack.
"I wouldn't categorize it,nfl jerseys authentic china," Harbaugh said of the offense. "In terms of identity,China Jerseys, we want to be about moving the football, picking up first downs, scoring points, scoring touchdowns."

Underlying all financial activity are transactions involving money. The term "transactions" means something philosophically different in economics. It stands for exchanges of goods and services. Geld, in economic transactions, has only a transactional value. It plays the role of a medium facilitating the exchanges. In financial transactions, egter, money becomes the entity that is being transacted. Financial systems essentially move money from savings and transforms it into capital. Thus money takes on an investment value, in addition to its intrinsic transactional value. This investment value is the basis of interest.
Gegewe dat die belegging waarde is ook gemeet en teruggekeer in terme van geld, kry ons die idee van saamgestelde rente en "om geld te werk." Diegene wat geld vraag opbrengste het wat gebaseer is op die belegging risiko wat hulle bereid is om te aanvaar. En die rol van die moderne finansiële stelsel word een van die balansering van hierdie risiko-beloning vergelyking.
We should keep in mind that this signification of money as investment entity is indeed a philosophical choice that we have made over the past few centuries. Other choices do exist — Islamic banking springs to mind, although its practice has be diluted by the more widely held view of money as possessing an investment value. It is fascinating to study the history and philosophy of money, but it is a topic that calls for a full-length book on its own right. Understanding money at its most fundamental level may in fact enhance our productivity — which is again measured in terms of the bottom line, consistent with the philosophy of money that enjoys currency.

Jesus meets a community impoverished in truth. The blind man receives sight through the work of Jesus on the Sabbath. This contradicts the prevailing world view. The community seeks to set aside the truth in favor of their world view. Jesus challenges their perspective with healing and truth. The blind man is changed and witnesses to the power of God in Jesus.

I finished my resume, but it's not online. It was sent to companies that will be coming to the school of design's job fair. Also, I have yet to update my online portfolio. I hope to find time to do that soon. But I don't know when I'll find time.
The Emergence team got some time at the school's faculty meeting this morning. We introduced ourselves as a gesture to facilitate better awareness of and involvement with the conference. We've made some headway on a theme, but haven't nailed it yet. We hope to figure it out by the end of this week. We're also working on an identity system.
I met with one of my clients tonight (ITNS) to go over my availability for work in the future. Basically, I said I could not do any large projects. I'm still going to do some consulting and maintenance. I'm probably an idiot for doing that.
My neighbors decided to not turn on their heat, even though it's 8 degrees out. Their pipes froze. Now my pipes are frozen. Try living without water for a day.

With a 'Good nite Edmonton' Oprah Winfrey closed her Edmonton chapter Monday night, prompting excitement and anticipation to migrate south to Calgary for her live engagement there on Tuesday night.
. @tyguy80 Thank u for being there. I'm exhausted . Good nite Edmonton.
— Oprah Winfrey (@Oprah) January 22, 2013
The iconic U.S. television host had the sold-out Northlands Colisseum laughing and gasping Tuesday night, as she switched hats between motivational speaker and stand-up comic at the Alberta capital's edition of 'An Evening with Oprah.'
Calgary's Tuesday night event is the second stop in a three-date western Canada tour , that caps off in Vancouver on Thursday.
And the buzz in Calgary, where the event at the Saddledome sold out in one day, is palpable.
Social media was abuzz with ecstatic fans, while Calgary businesses are enjoying a boost in traffic thanks to the event.
Olives Restaurant general manager Warren Flemming told the Calgary Herald that Tuesday at the establishment, which is located in the vicinity of the Saddledome, has been booked solid since the beginning of the month.
"I can't take on anymore people between the hours of four and six o'clock. It's jam-packed," said Flemming of the establishment which seats approximately 150 but that normally only sees 40 to 50 patrons on a regular Tuesday.

Hyperloop: Elon Musk's 745mph high-speed tube train could connect Madrid and Barcelona in half an hour
Plans for a high-speed tube allowing passengers to travel from Madrid to Barcelona in just 30 minutes have been unveiled at a technology conference.
Entrepreneur Elon Musk's Hyperloop scheme involves a high-speed train running at 1,200km per hour (745mph) which aims to connect cities through low-pressure steel tubes.
Travelling between Madrid and Barcelona - a distance of around 620km - on the Hyperloop would take less than half the time of a typical plane journey of about 75 minutes.
Plans for a 8km test track to be built in southern California near Musk's Space X venture, have already been announced.
At the xSpain technology conference, which took place in Madrid over the weekend, Dirk Ahlborn, CEO of Hyperloop Transportation Technologies said the technology for the train was already available, according to thelocal.es.
"We already have the technology. We are currently working to get the necessary licenses and will begin construction next year, opening to the public in 2018 or 2019," he said.
The prototype, he said, would transport more than 10 million people every year.
Please log in or register with belfasttelegraph.co.uk for free access to this article.
The project may seem ambitious but in a recent interview with CNN Money, Mr Musk said he did not think it was that difficult.
He said: "I know there are various companies that are trying to create the Hyperloop, and honestly I think it is a lot easier than people think. Blueprints are always kind of complicated, and, yes, there is math, but it's really not that hard."
Just relocated our tubes into the new campus expansion.
We are rolling in DTLA!!! pic.twitter.com/uboa5ApLfC— HyperloopTech (@HyperloopTech) September 9, 2015

Renova vs. Refissa vs retinol
I'm a little puzzled by your question because Renova and Refissa are the trade names for prescription retinoids (not made by Obagi), similar to Retin A – the generic name is tretinoin. Obagi and many other companies may have a "prescription version" which is similar but they also market and make a non-prescription retinoid – retinol.
Now to make it really confusing, retinol is about 10 times weaker than tretinoin (prescription version). So………….you'll see retinols in really different strengths……like 0.25% (retinol) versus 0.025% (tretinoin) . Since they are making the non prescription version 10 times more concentrated, it ends up being about the same in effectiveness. Sometimes I think this whole area is designed to confuse consumers. 🙂 Here's a good retinol for summer.
So to answer your questions, the main difference between the Renova and Refissa is the base that it's put in. Renova is in a creamy base formulated for more mature skin and Refissa the same, but in more of an ointment base for super dry skin.
On the organic question (like the Blueberry Soy Nightcream) , usually organic products have a shorter shelf life because they contain fewer preservatives.
Hope this helps, Dr. I

Confessions of an Edge-Dweller
By Dianne Monroe for TransitionVoice.com
Inhabiting and acting in the edge-places of our civilization is crucial for humanity's passage through these challenging times.
I'm an Edge-dweller. It's not something I signed up for, or studied. It's simply what I am. Over the past several years, I've begun to understand this as a specific way of being – and that this way of being may be intertwined with these edge-times in which we live.
There must be other Edge-dwellers – lots and lots of us. Perhaps the times invite us or shape us into being. Perhaps we have something important to offer these times. Perhaps people can choose or learn to be Edge-dwellers.
This is the first of a series of articles on Edge-dwelling. I'm writing as an exploration, to invite a conversation, to seek connection with others.
We live in a time when our civilization (which some say began with the industrial age and others trace back to the dawn of agriculture some 10,000 years ago) is crumbling. We live in a time when our consumer culture is literally consuming our planet – a time that Bill McKibben (among others) says has already passed from the 11,000 year Holocene period of climate stability to what is being called the Anthropocene, a time of climate instability brought about by mankind's own actions. That's a huge edge to be living on. In one sense everyone alive today may be an Edge-dweller.
By Edge-dwelling, I am not talking about the often used phrase "living on the edge" as partaking in extreme sports or being one paycheck away from homelessness. I'm talking about a way of being with, experiencing, and moving in this world.
I use Edge-dwelling to mean those people drawn to the edges of places and things; people who inhabit and act in those edge spaces.
I've always felt drawn and called by the edges of things; the place where two things meet, connect, bump, collide, blend, interweave, join and create something new; places where land joins ocean (or lake or river or stream); where forest meets meadow, where hills become plains; those bridge places that stretch from one thing to another.
These are not comfortable places. Sometimes they are harsh or unpredictable. There are plants and animals that inhabit those environments, flourish in them, know them as home. There are people drawn to these kinds of places. Such people may have qualities that can be crucial for our times. For some, these qualities may come naturally. For others, they can be nurtured, cultivated, grown, learned. Either way, naming it, exploring it, being aware of its potential and importance, can clarify, magnify, make visible what is hidden.
And so I write to offer an invitation and begin a conversation.
