One of the ongoing creative projects Adrien has been working on is photographing some of the farmers working and learning through the New Entry Sustainable Farming Project. We receive a weekly share of the farmers' bounty through World Peas CSA and, so far, it has been a wondrous adventure in fresh local veggies – and fruits.
This morning, Adrien set out to try to catch up with some of the farmers working their plots in Dracut. And, in my new role of photography assistant, I went along with him. Near Richardson's Dairy, where many of the new farmers work, we met up with Justine, a farmer who immigrated from Cameroon. Justine was a bit unsure of us at first – who wouldn't be at 7 in the morning! – but remembered Adrien from an earlier introduction by McKenzie Boekholder, a coordinator for New Entry Sustainable Farming. Justine also remembered that Adrien owed her a photograph ;-).
Adrien convinced Justine to pose for him near her plot. She was very tolerant of both of us interrupting her morning chores. Here is one of the shots from this morning:
One of the most fun things about this morning was the friendliness we were shown. Justine clasped my hand and walked us to a covered framed building. She not only insisted on giving me a beautiful bunch of collard greens, freshly picked before our eyes, she gave me directions on how to best prepare them for tonight's supper. I'm hopeful I won't screw it up!
Meeting new people and learning about where my food comes from is turning out to be a wonderful adventure. One that is full of reminders of the generous goodness of humanity.

Beautiful girl who danced at every show, who acted in every production in her birth town, who dreamed of becoming an actress fro as long as she can remember. Sounds familiar? There were thousands of such girls, and Philippa Hilber was just one of them. However, unlike most, she actually got somewhere – she signed a contract with a major studio and acted in bits and pieces. The problem was that she never got beyond that stage. In the end, she married and left the screen.
Phillippa A. Hilber was born on January 22, 1918, in Los Angeles, California, to Phillip Melbourne Hilber and Vera Thornton. Her father was a professional photographer, born in Michigan.
Her parents separated when she was a toddler, and she went on to live with her maternal grandparents, Alvin and Addie Thornton. In 1920, Vera and Philippa lived with Alvin and Addie and Vera's younger brother, Richard Scott. Alvin and Addie were both Mississippi natives that married in the late 1880s, had six children, and came to California in the early 1910s. After the divorce, Vera never remarried. Phillip remarried to Hazel Hilber and had a son, Charles, born in 1930.
Philippa grew up in San Bernardino, and integrated herself with the entertainment world while very young – she appeared in school plays aged only 11, and was about 14 years old when she danced ballet in various summer concerts. Here is an excerpt of a newspaper article, dating from July 1931, about a concert at the Biltmore Bowl:
Suited particularly to this out-of-doors theater, and offering an atmospheric bit which will, in all probability, long be remembered, is the ballet "Clouds," danced to the music of Debussy. Of the sixty dancers included in the personnel of this ballet, only six will appear as individual figures. The others are completely covered beneath more than 1000 yards of veiling, shading in color from foggy grays to brilliant orange: Representing the. clouds at sunset, the dancers drift in their rhythmic patterns about the stage, finally disappearing, leaving but one tragic little cloud who has strayed away from the rest, but who scurries away when she discovers she has been left alone. Hiding behind the clouds, but emerging in their full brilliance when the last bit of chiffon has drifted away, are five stars and, as a final climax, the moon. Featured in this ballet are Evelyn Wenger, Edith Jane. Elise Relman. Helen Doty, Phillipa Hilber and Dorothy Wagner
Philippa continued to dance at various revenues, and hope for movie stardom. And that came soon enough – she signed a movie contract in November 1934, when she was just 16 years old, and started her movie career. On the side, we have to note that she waited to finish high school in 1936, when she was already a working actress.
Philippa started as a dancer, and as such appeared in uncredited roles of chorus girls. Her first appearance was in Arizona to Broadway, a sadly forgotten but not-all-that-bad comedy about con men trying to out-con each other. The underrated and tragic James Dunn plays the male lead, and my favorite Joan Bennett is the female lead. What's not to like? Philippa then appeared in Roman Scandals, the seminal Eddie Cantor comedy.
This was followed by a show girl role in Moulin Rouge, a charming but shallow pre-code comedy with Constance Bennett playing dual roles and Franchot Tone as the husband. As you can imagine when there are dual roles involved, it's about mistaken identities and so on. Predictable, but fun non the less. Then came Stand Up and Cheer!, which is less of a movie and more of an excuse to put one variety act after another. Avoid if you don't like your movies without a plausible plot.
Philippa was a rumba specialist dancer in Redheads on Parade, a sadly totally forgotten Dixie Lee musical, with our favorite wooden actor, John Boles. She danced ballet in one of the few Spanish movies Hollywood made, Piernas de seda.
King of Burlesque, Philippa's next feature, was an early Alice Faye movie with a plot that would become a genre staple in the 1940s – The low-class man aspiring to high society and married above himself, shunning his low-class sweetheart, who then goes abroad to sing and becomes a big success on the stage there. Faye actually played the shunned lady twice more, but this was the first time. The husband/cad is Warren Baxter, and socialite wife is Mona Barrie – decent cast, good dancing and singing acts, and what more do you need?
Philippa appeared in two Loretta Young movies – Wife, Doctor and Nurse and Second Honeymoon. The former is actually an interesting take on the typical love triangle, with Loretta playing the wife – the latter is a lackluster Loretta/Tyrone Power pairing, devoid of any energy and wit (a must for a screwball comedy, which it feigns to be). She also appeared in Girls' Dormitory, a flat movie that aimed to shock but of course is more boring than anything, and You Can't Have Everything, a breezy, charming Alice Faye/Don Ameche movie (where you need to forget the plot and just enjoy the music!)
Philippa ended her career with two total misses – Love and Hisses, a dismal movie at best, about a rado feud between columnist Walter Winchell and band leader Ben Bernie(since neither knows how to act, you can imagine how good the movie is), and Kentucky Moonshine, a lesser movie of the Ritz brothers (and they were the poor man's Marx brothers).
Philippa left movies to raise her children after this.
In 1934, Philippa gave a Beauty hint for her fans:
FOR a facial that leaves the skin smooth and soft, mix equal parts of sweet almond oil and honey, cover the face and allow to remain on half an hour. Remove with cold cream or lukewarm, damp towels. through several waters. Do not wring them out, but hang up dripping. Dry celery leaves and parsley, then pulverize. Keep in salt shakers. They are worth the trouble to prepare and make a tasty garnish.
Philippa dated Doodles Weaver for a few months in 1935. She married Bill Goodwin on March 11, 1936, in Yuma, Arizona. They just hoped into Goodwin's car one day and of they went! William Nettles Goodwin was born on July 28, 1910, in San Francisco, California, to . Goodwin attended the University of California. He acted in stage productions on the West Coast before he began working in radio in 1930. After working on a station in Portland, Oregon, he worked at stations in Sacramento and Los Angeles. he would act in Hollywood movies, and work with George Burns and Gracie Allen.
Philippa promised that marriage would not interfere one bit with her career. Typical sentence, spoken by dozens of starlets – with typical results. Yes – within three years, Phillipa was pregnant and leaving movies for good.
The couple had four children – Jill (born on December 20, 1939), William Richard (born on January 8, 1942), Lynn (born on October 18, 1943), and Sally (born on June 29, 1945). In 1945, she was named Glamour Mother of the Year by infantry men fighting in Europe. In 1951, there was thing short item in the papers about Philippa: People are always asking Philippa Goodwin, wife of Bill Goodwin, how she finds time to raise four children. "It's the same as raising one,", explains Philippa. "When Jill, our firstborn, arrived, she took all my time. What can three more do?"
Philippa and Bill enjoyed a happy and fulfilling marriage, and even had their own radio program. Unfortunately, Bill died from a sudden heart attack on 1958. In the 1970s, Philippa worked as a successful real estate agent, based in Los Angeles.
Philippa never remarried, retired in the 1980s and moved to Palm Desert to enjoy her golden years.
Philippa Hilber Goodwin died on April 1996 in Palm Desert, California.

Palm Beach County had the lowest amount of foreclosures since 2006 with under 10,000 foreclosures in all of 2013. This is a near 36% decrease from the year before in 2012. Foreclosure drops had been occurring all year long as Palm Beach Home prices have been increasing at substantial rates.
Miami Dade foreclosure rates and Broward County have seen significant drops as well as homes have been selling and inventory is at a low.
The Standard & Poors home price index for Broward, Palm Beach and Miami Dade rose approx 15.85% from a year ago. It was the 21st month in a row with a continuous gain.
Florida home sales are on a rise, and with such cold winters up North, I would expect to see more growth continue.

Some couples come to our law offices requesting what they call an "agreed divorce." To them, this means that they've thought about the issues, and agree in principle as to how they want to divide assets, handle the parenting schedule, what the child support amount should be, and whatever else might be needed in their divorce decree.
But sometimes, in talking to those couples, the only thing they're really agreed on is that they're agreeing to getting a divorce.
The concept of the agreed divorce is similar to an uncontested divorce, and often times, it's more a concept than a reality. Uncontested, in fact, can be a misnomer--one party might take the lead on a divorce plan, and the other party follows, but upon reflecting on what's in the proposed decree, it no longer seems like a good idea.
Couples who say they have an agreed divorce either do or they don't. If they truly have agreed to all the terms of the divorce, and only need a lawyer to get it across the finish line, that's something we can help expedite. (See my previous blog article on the pro se divorce for how that process works.)
If there are items on which they disagree, though, it won't serve them well to have just one lawyer involved with the case. A lawyer can't advise both parties in a divorce, and though a lawyer can talk through the possibilities for a decree with both parties, there comes a time in that discussion in which each party needs its own counsel to make the best possible decisions.
In cases like that, a collaborative divorce might be the best option. When a couple states a general agreement on the divorce, but they're not quite eye to eye on all options, they're probably willing to have some meetings and work out a compromise or a creative solution.
Collaborative divorce allows each party to be represented in the negotiations. Each party gets to consult with his or her lawyer about what's best going forward. But rather than get bogged down in a court battle that is decided by a judge, the couple retains control over the situation. The lawyers in a collaborative case commit to bringing the couple to resolution. In fact, they sign a pact at the start saying that if the couple can't come to an agreement, they have to get brand new lawyers to pursue a divorce through litigation.
If you don't have an agreed divorce but think you could get there, we're happy to meet with you and talk more with you about collaborative law, or other alternative dispute resolutions like mediation. While people who say they have an agreed divorce might not be as in sync as they think they are, agreement can also be closer than they think.

[published in the Cat's Meow, a newsletter to the Page Museum at the La Brea Tar Pits, December 2010]
This year, volunteer Dixie Swift has cleaned more fossil skulls than anyone else in the fishbowl lab. She's known to be unusually quick at the task, but she wouldn't brag about it. Dixie rinses and scrapes microfossils, humeri of various animals, and other fossils at the Page Museum and likes them just as well. For her, satisfaction comes with uncovering and preparing a unit of discovery she can pass along to the scientists, and the task takes on a certain sense of preciousness.
"It's exciting to find identifiable bones coming out of a mass of asphalt," Dixie said with a gentle smile as she sat and talked to me about it last week. "These things we usually throw away—they are these amazing visual objects."
A partial juvenile saber tooth skull is Dixie's latest scrubbing detail. Before that, she tackled a coyote named "That Puppy", and a dire wolf named "Orion." As we spoke about Orion, she couldn't help but go grab his nearly complete skull, pick it up, and hold it, turn it around and show me every angle. Her quiet voice rose to excitement. She loved the color of the bone—fossilized by asphalt, it was a deep brown color like the other fossils found at Rancho La Brea. She name it Orion, she explained, because it had a sizable pit on its forehead, rubbed into the bone by thousands of years of shifting up against a rock or other blunt object in the earth next to it, in the exact shape of an "O."
Dixie is a retired and teacher and community leader who has spent her Tuesdays and Wednesdays at the Page Museum for a year and a half now. She is not a trained paleontologist, but has always collected bones on her own as a hobby. Skeletons of sea gulls and other birds hang in flight from the ceiling of Dixie's house. Remains of her pet iguana, turtle shells, and other bones hang on the walls and rests in file chests scattered everywhere. When her kids were young, they used to complain, "Other kids come home to chocolate chip cookies…I come home to seagulls boiling on the stove."
A soon-to-be best friend once brought Dixie a dead possum to clean and keep. The friendship was cemented. Her family saves the carcass of the Thanksgiving bird for her every year, and every time she eats rabbit of chicken breast at a restaurant, she makes sure to get a 'doggy bag.'
This love of bones is not a flash in the pan. It's been with her since her early teens. For her 16th birthday, her mother gave her the cervical vertebra of a whale as an object to treasure.
"A lot of people make objects out of bones, but the preciousness is in the very fact that it's a bone of an animal," she says with a nod, leaning back in her chair.
Dixie first visited the Page Museum 2 years ago, saw the volunteers in the fishbowl, and was hooked on the idea of helping out. After washing fossil bones for years, she says, "It feels like such a respectful thing to have done. Then it goes on to the scientists, but I'm just taking care." Cleaning a skull or finding a sclerotic ossicle amongst a bag of tiny microfossils gives her a sense of ownership or responsibility for the fossil. (Microfossils seemed tedious at first, but eventually she found the same pleasure in them.) Months ago, Dixie spent many days working some of the asphalt and dirt out of the pelvis of Zed the Columbian mammoth; she got to know it so well that when she walks by it out in the museum gallery, she still remembers the shape of all its nooks and crannies.
As much as Dixie cherishes her tasks at the Page Museum, it's also very purposeful, like the rest of her life. Dixie has always been an activist. In the fifties, she helped Navajo women convert hog barns into dietary centers for their communities. For a while, she worked for the American Friends Service Committee, a Quaker-founded organization promoting social justice, peace, and humanitarian aid. As a teacher in Compton, she pioneered the school's first bone library containing 80 bones of various animals plus a molar of an 88-year-old grandmother of a student. In 1989, she founded the Homeland Cultural Center in Long Beach, where, among other ways to encourage cultural preservation, she wrote to prisoners to encourage their artistic style. One used imagery of bones in his artworks.
When Dixie joined the Page Museum volunteer staff, she welcomed the more delicate and introspective work, but sees it as accomplishing an equally ambitious goal.
"I didn't know there was any other way to be active and significant to the planet than to be in the streets doing community work. But I have found that contributing to the work of scientific research by cleaning fossils is rewarding and really valuable for the work here at the Page Museum." The scientists are the ones who can interpret what the bones mean and construct the history of species and ecosystems on earth, she says. "It's important to know the history of the planet. It makes us look at ourselves and become more protective of how we're caring for things now."
As Dixie said this, I was reminded of a quote by E.O. Wilson: "Nature holds the key to our aesthetic, intellectual, cognitive and even spiritual satisfaction." And Dixie's favorite way into nature is through bones.
[Dixie gives sincere thanks for giving her the opportunity to work alongside the other lab technicians and paleontologists.]

Essie's New 'Princess Charming' Is The Perfect Mauve Polish
Haven't you heard? Mauve is back.
Things get tricky this time of year. We're solidly out of the holiday season and yet, spring still seems so far away. Many of us are tiring of the deep purples and rich reds of the season, but it's too soon to start passing the piña coladas, if you know what we mean. We're looking to lighten up, but in a seasonally appropriate way. If you're finding yourself in a similar predicament as of late, let us introduce you to one of Essie's latest releases—Princess Charming.
The brand describes it as a "flattering rose mauve accented with nutmeg." We're calling it your new favorite neutral. It's a not-too-sweet, feminine hue that will work with just about whatever your winter uniform consists of—whether it's a down puffer coat in Nashville, or a pop of Lilly P. in Palm Beach. We think this soft rosy hue has staying power on the beauty scene. Luckily enough, it won't be chipping from your fingers anytime soon either. Princess Charming is part of the Gel Couture collection, Essie's line of long-wear polish.
WATCH: The Barely There Nail Polish For The Girl Who Doesn't Want To Wear Color
Essie is the reigning queen of neutral polish hues, so we're always anxiously anticipating the reveal of their latest collections for new colors that will take us through those tricky times between seasons. Princess Charming is one of six shades in the new Essie Enchanted collection released earlier this month, which includes yet another amazing neutral called Matter of Fiction, in addition to a few more whimsical options that deserve a spin on your fingertips before their next collection drops. You can bet we'll be sharing the details on the new Essie nail polish launches as soon as we have them.


text: An exquisite selection of Blutengel hits and classics, reinterpreted in symphonic form, makes for the most intense and grandiose sonic experience that the Berlin-based charts-stormers have ever delivered. Available as a regular album CD, as a deluxe edition with a bonus live- DVD containing the best moments from the Gothic-Meets-Klassikshow in Leipzig. The highly acclaimed concert Blutengel played with a symphony orchestra in front of a sold-out "Neues Gewandhaus Leipzig" at the first Gothic Meets Klassik Festival seemed like a revelation to all people involved. Carefully rearranged and carried by the massive sound of a full orchestra, the Berlinbased group's songs unfolded a completely new dimension of impact that left no one cold and had even long-time fans discover the music from a brand-new perspective. Band-mastermind and singer Chris Pohl and second vocalist Ulrike Goldmann were so mesmerized by the experience that they decided it would be a waste to let this project just be a one-time event. At the end of 2013, they had the songs rearranged and organized a tour featuring a carefully toned down version of the experience with a chamber ensemble. As a logical next step, the band now presents the full symphonic experience as a gigantic studio production that reproduces the sound of a full orchestra in a crystal-clear audio experience on the new album "Black Symphonies." The 12 songs on the album span an exquisite selection of the finest Blutengel-classics and hits, complemented by the epic new song "Krieger." The album will also be released as a deluxe version featuring a bonus live DVD containing the best moments from the legendary show with the symphony orchestra of Zielona Gora at the "Neues Gewandhaus Leipzig", which started it all.

We think the average Alberta divorce cost of $16,001 each is ridiculous (Canadian Lawyer Magazine Fee Survey1).
The adversarial system of two divorce lawyers often creates a conflict that then requires the services of two adversarial lawyers.
Studies show that divorce mediation produces agreements that are more satisfactory, less expensive, faster, and has the couple in a finishing with a better relationship and better able to co-parent their children than the traditional court litigation model.
For most couples – the process of divorce is a pretty straightforward. That is not to say it isn't emotional, it is. But the objective value of the assets are the same regardless of emotions; incomes and child support do not change – even if one person feels angry or sad.
The past is behind you. Our mediation process is civilized, dignified and focuses on a solution that works for everyone; you, your spouse, and your children.
Mediation allows you and your spouse to chose your outcomes instead of having a judge telling you what you must do. Most our clients have agreements that are different than what a court would do – because both spouses have input and can evaluate the best option for themselves and their children.
Justice Minister McNally has described divorce mediation to be 4x faster and 8x less expensive than the average divorce. "'The benefits of mediation are clear – it is quicker, cheaper and leads to better outcomes."2
Most our cases finish for less than the initial retainer required in the traditional two lawyer adversarial system. With a successful completion rate of over 95% of cases – isn't it worth learning more?
Book an initial couples consultation to learn more – or book a working meeting and see what you can get done in just a few hours.

Windows 10 bloatware has been an issue for many users, which is why a lot of ways to get rid of it have surfaced till now. We have covered a bunch of commands that allow users to remove default apps in Windows 10. One rather glaring omission in the said list is any command to uninstall Edge Browser. You might wonder why someone would need to get rid of Microsoft's poster child, but the truth is that if you are used to Chrome or Firefox, getting pushed by Windows 10 to switch to Edge is a drag. Some apps or links might try opening Edge automatically, and if this is something you are looking to avoid, the best solution is to uninstall Edge browser. Fortunately, you can now do so quite easily. Edge Blocker is a one-click solution for haters of the default Windows 10 browser.
Edge Blocker is one of those apps that does exactly what it says on the package, and nothing more. The app comes in the form of a portable EXE, which runs only on Windows 10.
Using The App To Uninstall Edge Browser
Once you have downloaded Edge Blocker, the app appears inside a zipped folder. You can choose to extract the EXE file, or run it from within the archive. In either case, you will see a very simple UI. To make the app work its magic, simply hit the 'Block' button with the red text on it. Once 'blocked', the Edge browser will never be launched. You can't open it manually, and no app (third-party or default) can access it either.
If at any point you feel like you have made a mistake, getting Edge back is fairly easy. Just re-run the app and hit 'Unblock'. The best part about Edge Blocker is its portability, which makes sure you are never stuck in a situation where you uninstall Edge browser and end up out of alternatives.
Edge Blocker is a free app, and is available at the link provided below. The app runs without any glitches on all version of Windows 10. Go ahead and give it a go if you are getting a bit too sick of Edge.

This Couple's IVF Story Is Captivating Thousands of Facebook Users
A woman in Texas is finally pregnant after years of trying to conceive and multiple miscarriages—and she's shared her journey in a Facebook post that's garnered a lot of attention. The post features a photo of two onesies—one that says "Worth the wait" and another that says "and wait…and wait…and wait"—surrounded by needles.
In the caption, Lauren Walker writes that she and her husband Garyt struggled through "452 needles, thousands of tears, one corrective surgery, four Clomid/Letrozole attempts, two IVF rounds, and three failed [embryo] transfers." Now, she's pregnant with twins, due in August, that the couple has named Duke and Diana.
Walker, 28, says in her post that creating the photo was "surreal." "Halfway through, my hands started to quiver, my breath got short, and I had to stop," she writes. "I sat down, looked at it, and started to cry. Not because I was sad about what it took to get here, but because it was a representation of my world, our world, for the past over two and a half years staring back at me."
She says there was "a lot of pain, hope, and fear behind each of these needles. Each one represents a different day, a different path, a different emotion." But after she had a "good cry," Walker noticed that the needles started to blur together. "Now all I see are these tiny onesies that so perfectly sum up our journey: Worth the wait. And wait, and wait, and wait," she says.
The hardest part about the journey was going through an entire cycle of IVF and losing five embryos, Walker says. "Coming so far only to miscarry," she writes. "Getting to where all the hope, the money, all of what could have been your children were gone."
Walker tells ABC News that she and her husband spent about $30,000 in fertility treatments by the end of 2014. They gave it "one more shot" with a final embryo, but found out two days before Christmas that year that it didn't take. "We just held each other and I let out this blood-curdling scream," she said. "I was completely broken."
They eventually decided to try again in October 2016 after taking out a $14,000 loan. They didn't tell family members and friends they were trying, and surprised family with the good news a week before Christmas by handing them the pregnancy test wrapped in a bow.
Now, Walker says their long journey was worth it. "The reason why we were waiting so long is that we were waiting for them," she told ABC News. She also ended her Facebook post with this tear-jerking message: "Duke & Diana, you are already so loved…Mommy and Daddy cannot wait to hold you in our arms, for we have carried you in our hearts for a lifetime."
Their story is incredible (and potentially a little scary for those struggling to get pregnant), but Carl M. Herbert, M.D., a reproductive endocrinologist with Pacific Fertility Center in San Francisco, tells SELF that young couples can usually get pregnant with a single IVF cycle. This is especially true given current technology that allows doctors to test the embryo for chromosomal abnormalities, therefore lowering the odds of a miscarriage.
"If we don't get a positive pregnancy [test], we start to wonder what else could be wrong," he says, noting that a miscarriage can happen for reasons other than an embryo having abnormalities. Herbert says IVF is "amazing" for people with tubal problems or people whose partners have a low sperm count, but it may be more difficult if there is another complication, such as an abnormality with a person's uterus.
IVF success rates also vary with age. It's around 50 percent at age 30, per the most recent available data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 21 percent in women in their late 30s, 11 percent in women 41 to 42, and lower beyond that.
However, reproductive endocrinology and infertility specialist Brian Levine, M.D., the founding partner and practice director of CCRM New York, tells SELF that "although there are no guarantees with IVF, many patients are pregnant after their first cycle." (A cycle of IVF includes taking medication for 10 to 12 days to stimulate the ovaries to produce multiple eggs, undergoing a minor surgical procedure to extract the eggs, and then about five days of growth of the embryos in the laboratory, he explains. The embryos can be transferred right away, or transferred the following month.)
The length of time it takes for IVF to be successful can vary depending on how a person's body responds to the medication and whether they're working with fresh or frozen embryos (i.e., eggs that have just been harvested and fertilized or those that are frozen until a later time), Lina Akopians, M.D., Ph.D., from the Southern California Reproductive Center, tells SELF. "Additionally, depending on the quality of the egg or sperm, some couples may require multiple IVF cycles to produce a genetically healthy embryo available for transfer," she says.
People who are struggling to conceive will typically undergo treatment with clomiphene (Clomid), a drug that stimulates ovulation, before resorting to IVF because it's easier and cheaper, and unlike IVF, people other than reproductive endocrinologists can administer it, Christine Greves, M.D., a board-certified ob/gyn at the Winnie Palmer Hospital for Women and Babies, tells SELF. (Femara [Letrozole], another ovulation-stimulating drug, may also be used.)
Reproductive endocrinologist John J. Rapisarda, M.D., of Fertility Centers of Illinois, tells SELF that people can do a few things to increase their odds of IVF success. He recommends following a healthy lifestyle, including eating a balanced diet, exercising lightly, stopping smoking, and avoiding excess caffeine and alcohol.
It can also be a good idea to minimize exposure to environmental toxins like pesticides, solvents, and even BPA-containing plastics, he says. (BPA is a potential toxin found in many plastics, Greves notes, which is why she recommends women who are trying to conceive try to minimize their exposure to it.)
Lowering stress levels is also important, Levine says, noting that his patients often undergo acupuncture to help manage their stress before starting IVF. "IVF is like a marathon; they both require training and conditioning," he says. "Patients should try to get themselves into the healthiest state possible."
But the best way to ensure IVF success is to seek professional help early and not delay treatment, Akopians says. "The IVF success rate is remarkable," Jane Frederick, M.D., a board-certified fertility expert at HRC Fertility, the largest provider of advanced fertility treatment in Southern California, tells SELF. "We are on the cutting edge of science and technology offering couples the chance to have a family they have longed for."
If you're planning to undergo IVF, Greves recommends being prepared for emotional swings and having a good support group in place to help you through it. And, above all, try to stay positive. "Don't lose hope if you don't get a positive pregnancy result on the first or second cycle," she says.

Showing affection to others may be easy while harder for some; We were raised in a family where affection is not greatly shown. In fact, in the old times, we find it harder to hug or kiss our parents or siblings in special occasions or to even say loving words. Geez! They gave creeps. But, just like experts say, most individuals simply employ what their families teach them.
Thus, now that I have my own kid, we make sure that he knows he is well loved through words and other affectionate actions like hugs and kisses in any moment and place possible. And, we seem to be on the right track because his hugging or saying "I Love You" seem easy to do.
We only wish that he too when he grows up can show openly his affection to his loved ones including his possible wife and kids and with that he can grow confident of himself and positive with his relationship with others.

Someday your princess will come—and she'll be rocking a mohawk-mullet, wearing a jaunty tunic complete with epaulets and cravat, and riding a disdainful pink unicorn.
Trapped in a tower, "big-boned" Princess Sadie, a white girl with long blonde hair, is tired of fending off unsolicited rescue attempts by princes. But when dapper, dark-skinned Princess Amira and her unicorn arrive, Sadie overcomes the inner fears and self-doubts that had imprisoned her psyche as thoroughly as the tower had her body. The two embark on adventures that include coming to the aid of an embarrassed prince, sweet-talking a sadly misunderstood ogre, and confronting Sadie's wicked older sister. The princesses' affection for each other deepens with every challenge—and every round of snappy banter—and when wedding bells ring, they're for a couple who truly know and have freely chosen one another. O'Neill delivers an alternative fairy tale that challenges conventions with every twist of the plot but doesn't veer into heavy-handed preachiness that pulls readers out of the story. The bright illustrations, clear layout, and easy-to-read type make this an inviting read.
Combine a cuddly purple dragon, much sharing of cookies, abundant humor, and two distinct and appealing heroines, and you have a royal winner. (Graphic fantasy. 8-13)

Moderate slackening of the facial oval does not necessarily need a cervico-facial lift. Light tensioning of the skin and muscle is sufficient and effective. We call this the 'French touch'.
- Moderate sagging of the cheek, the facial oval and the neck
- Loss of contour definition in the lower face and neck.
Principles of treatment
- Action is essentially on the muscles (SMAS – Superficial Musculoaponeurotic System), and the pull on the skin is moderate
- It restores the skin tension at the base of the face, including the cheeks, the oval and the neck
- Restores jaw and neck lines.
Treatment procedure
- Short and almost invisible incisions along natural contours only in front of the ears.
- Conscious sedation
- Hospitalization one day (outpatient).
Reduced social activity
- Less than 7 days.
- Refreshed facial oval and neck, a more youthful lower face, reduction of the nasolabial fold and creases at the corners of the lips
- The result lasts 5 to 10 years
- Preventative effect against further slackening of the skin.

This Marble Race At The Beach Is Way More Fun Than It Should Be… I Didn't Blink Once.
One race. One incredibly tough track. And 12 marbles, competing to take home the title.
That's exactly what you'll find in the video below: An epic marble race on a sand hill, 12 marbles rolling as fast as they can, hoping to get to the front of the pack. The race is divided into four stages with plenty of obstacles -- we're talking junctions, halfpipes, slaloms, and more.
Theoretically the race shouldn't be that exciting, but there's something about the commentary that makes the whole event pretty fun to watch. See which marble crushes the rest in the video below.

You can use any type of sole for this dish, such as Petrale, lemon, or gray. They're all delicate in flavor, as is the simple lemon cream sauce. The balance in strength ensures that neither will overwhelm the other; the sauce just enhances the fillets. Delicious, Quick Side Dishes Amazing Seafood Recipes
How to Make It
In a large nonstick frying pan, melt the butter over moderate heat. Sprinkle the sole with 1/2 teaspoon of the salt and the pepper. Dust the sole with the flour and shake off any excess. Put the sole in the pan and cook for 2 minutes. Turn and cook until just done, about 2 minutes longer. Remove the sole from the pan.
Add the cream and lemon zest to the pan. Bring to a simmer and cook until starting to thicken, about 2 minutes. Stir in the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt, the lemon juice, and parsley. Serve the sauce over the fish.
Fish Alternatives Other members of the flounder family, such as sand dab or fluke, will go well with the sauce, as will such mild fish fillets as trout, hake, or whiting.

TECH BUYER Sep 2019 - IDC Perspective - Doc # US45464919
Telecom and Cable Service Provider M&A and IPO Analysis, 1H19
By: Courtney MunroeGroup Vice President of Worldwide Telecommunications Research, Ragupathy Vellappa, Venkatesh MahaleSenior Research Analyst, Worldwide Telecommunications
This IDC Perspective provides an overview and analysis of telecom and cable service provider network M&A deals, joint ventures (JVs), and IPOs disclosed in 1H19. The document is limited to M&A deals in which the acquirer would take operational control of the target company and 50:50 JV deals
According to Ragupathy Vellappa, associate research manager, IDC's Worldwide Telecommunications Research, "The first half of 2019 was favorable for PE-backed investments in telecom and cable service provider M&As. PE-backed deals accounted for more than half (59%) of total deal value disclosed in 1H19 as telco's divestiture of noncore and datacenter assets remained the prime target for private equities. The telcos are utilizing the sale proceeds to invest in their core geographic markets, fiber, and 5G-related investments as well as to reduce the net debt. Enhancing market scale coupled with convergence opportunities and digital disruption are the other rationale for M&As in telecom services sector."

How and What To Post for Facebook Marketing?
Content creation to drive engagement for Facebook marketing
Now that you have set up your Facebook Business Page, you will have to build great contents to engage your audience.
Before rushing to build contents, take a moment to determine what is / are your objectives of your Facebook Business Page.
– Is it to build brand awareness?
– Is it to educate prospective and existing customers?
– Is it to drive Facebook users to your website?
– Is it to generate more leads for your business?
– Is it to drive more sales?
– Is it to serve as a customer service platform?
– Any other objectives?
Once you have decided on the objectives, you are ready to post some awesome contents.
Status update
You can write a post on the recent developments of your business on your Business Page timeline. For example, if you have a new product / service coming up; you can write a teaser that briefly describes the new product / service and these teaser posts can then lead up of the official launch of the new product / service. You can also invite your fans to name a new product or provide their expectations / wish list for product development / improvement.
If you have new employees joining your company, you can also post an update on Facebook – your fans like to see the humanize nature of your business and this will definitely provide more connection.
Facebook is all about engagement and with the continuous tweaking of Edgerank (an algorithm developed by Facebook to govern what is displayed on the News Feed), the more engaged your fans are with your Business Page, the more frequent they will see your posts. This is vitally crucial for Facebook marketing.
Your business would have troves and troves of pictures and images (e.g. opening ceremony, company gatherings, company events, employees' birthdays, new products / services, etc.). You can generate these photos / images onto Facebook either individually or creating an album. We, human beings, are visual animals and our brains are naturally attracted to images / visuals. So, don't be shy. For better Facebook marketing, share your pictures / photos with your fans, they will appreciate it.
And if you have not been taking pictures of your business, not to worry, there are many websites that offer nice photos whereby you can then incorporate your comments, through the use of some photo editing software, onto them for posting on your Facebook Business Page.

Google Images (http://www.google.com/imghp) – need to be aware of the licensing agreements for each photos
You can also create some meme to engage your fans. There are websites available that could do the job and most of the time, for free. Just like the meme below, it's created using Meme Generator (http://memegenerator.net/).
Or using Imgflip (https://imgflip.com/memegenerator):
Do a search of 'meme generator' in Google, Yahoo, Baidu or other search engines and you will be pleasantly surprised that there are many other meme generators available. Try them out and share your findings.
If you have taken videos of your business (e.g. new outlet opening, company events, customers / suppliers meetings, etc.) or better yet, you have done a video marketing of your business, you can upload these to your Facebook Business Page.
If you don't have any videos, not to worry, you can try your luck over at YouTube (the 2nd social media platform after Facebook) by searching for videos posted by others which are relevant to your business, industry, products, services, interests, etc.
Or you can search for relevant videos on Vimeo (https://vimeo.com/)
Events and Milestones
Similar to status updates, if you have a significant business milestone or organizing an important event, you can share this with your fans and audience by posting under the 'Event, Milestone' tab. Doing this will ensure that this post will be more prominent in your Business Page Timeline.
Please feel free to explore all posting options in Facebook. There is nothing to lose as you can always delete your post if it did not meet your expectation / requirement.
So, after setting up your Facebook Business Page, you are ready to rock & roll, post contents to spice up your Page and do some serious Facebook marketing. With some creativity and ingenuity, you will definitely be able to come up with great and interesting content to engage your fans and audience, providing them with snippets of useful information about your business, products and / or services and people.
One note of caution: when using images taken / produced by others, be careful of any copyright infringements. You do not want to receive a nasty legal letter sometime down the road, demanding compensation and / or a takedown.
As Facebook is all about interaction and engagement, when posting contents, don't just think of selling – think more in terms of engagement and interactions. Selling, either directly or indirectly, should only make up about 20% of your postings.
With the awesome contents created, you are now ready to publish your Page and attract your fans! We will discuss this in the next article.
Need any assistance with your Facebook Business Page, please do not hesitate to contact us!
To your Facebook marketing success! Have fun and lots of engagement!!!
