England have slipped out of the top five sides in international football - according to the widely derided FIFA rankings.
Euro 2012 finalists Italy, the side who eliminated England in that competition, replace Roy Hodgson's side in the top five.
England played two World Cup qualifiers in the eligibility period, with a routine 5-0 win over San Marino and 1-1 draw in Poland.
Spain and Germany remained unmoved in first and second, with Argentina climbing into third above Portugal, who slip to fourth following their surprise home draw against the Northern Irish.
Michael O'Neill's side enjoyed a leap of 17 places thanks to that result, moving to 100 in the standings.
The Republic of Ireland slipped eight spots to 36th after a 6-1 hammering by Germany.
Scotland, who sacked Craig Levein as manager this week, have dropped below Wales after being beaten 2-1 in their head-to-head match last month.
Scotland drifted by 14 to 70th while a 2-0 defeat in Croatia meant Wales also dropped from 57th to 66th.
Elsewhere Fabio Capello's Russia have moved into the top 10 after a strong start to their World Cup qualifying campaign.

A wartime Agfa color slide of a Gebirgsjäger Hauptmann eating some bread ration. He is wearing a Swedish Livpäls M1909 sheepskin parka coat, just like Major König (Ed Harris) in the movie "Enemy at the Gates" (the different is, this photo show a Swedish officer's double breasted version with button holes, while the one worn by Konig/Harris is a Swedish enlisted man's version which was single breasted and had the button tabs). Even though Sweden was neutral in World War II, they still traded raw materials and commerce with the Germans. Most of these coats were private purchase items for officers in Norway and Finland. The grey version are for tankers, artillery men and higher ranking officers, while the white are for frontline officers, cavalry and frontline support troops. This coat was only issued to personal who don't have to move much, as it is INSANELY warm. The Germans made one that looked like this for their airmen, only difference is that the German one is a full-body suit rather than merely a coat.

Ever see a photo so amazing you can't believe it's real? Sometimes they're not. Sometimes they look so fake because they're actually fake, like all of these photos we're about to present to you.
You may see these photos and think, "there's no way that could be real," and you're right. They're totally, completely, absolutely fake. Wow! Amazing! Holy Cow!

YPN to introduce direct deposit for payments in Q01
Good news for publishers who prefer direct deposit payments rather than mailed checks. Will Johnson, VP & General Manager of YPN announced in the Contextual Advertising Program Issues at PubCon that they plan to offer direct deposit in Q01 of 2006.
Hopefully when they make the change to direct deposit that they will also make the change to payments being sent net 30 to bring it in line with AdSense, rather than the current 45 days a publisher must wait for payment.

1. Netflix Is Growing Faster Than Kudzu In The Summertime
There were admittedly a few quarters last year where Netflix's U.S. growth seemed to have slowed down and we were thinking that perhaps they'd hit their limit. DVR penetration in the U.S. had sort of capped out at around 50% and there was good reason to think that Netflix would hit the same limit. Maybe there just weren't that many people who cared all that much about TV.
That theory seems all but disproven this quarter, as Netflix posted some very impressive gains for the third quarter in a row. The service added over 5 million subscribers in Q2 2017, but what was truly impressive is that 1.1 million came from the U.S. That follows U.S. gains of 1.9M and 1.4M in Q4 2016 and Q1 2017, respectively. So there's a definite upward trend that can no longer be attributed to Comcast adding Netflix to X1.
Why It Matters
Netflix's subscriber numbers are impressive —at 51.9M U.S. subscribers, they now are in around 40% of all U.S. households and well over half of all pay TV households.
They also don't show commercials.
That has major ramifications for a TV ecosystem that's based on people watching commercials.
We're already seeing the gradual acceptance of a piece of conventional wisdom that says that educated upscale coastal types rarely watch commercial TV anymore.
And if you look at the shows considered to be "Peak TV", they are admittedly almost all on ad-free SVOD and premium services.
So there's that.
There's also the shock of encountering one of those four minute long network ad blocks, the ones with two minute-long pharma commercials in them, after a steady diet of Netflix, and what that does to viewer's ability to sit through those commercials. (We continue to believe that the onslaught of pharma ads bears a disproportionate responsibility for viewers abandoning live pay-TV, but that's the subject of a much longer future post.)
There's also the Netflix Paradox: While Netflix does have a lot of original content, most of what they show is reruns of network TV shows. And without the ad revenue to fund those network TV shows, Netflix's offering would be a whole lot narrower. So at many levels, it is in their interest to ensure that ad-supported TV keeps on thriving.
How they actually do that is a bigger issue and not something we can solve in a single Week In Review column. But branded content and addressable ads that brands will pay more money for are both going to be a part of it.
What You Need To Do About It
If you're an MVPD, you need to think about following Comcast's lead and incorporating Netflix into your service. As we've explained before, it's a win all around: you get extra stickiness and happier customers, they get free marketing and the ability to reach an older, more technophobic audience. Netflix will not disappear if you ignore them. That's why joining forces makes so much sense.
If you're a network, you want to think about what you can offer that they can't. And, more importantly, whether you want to keep selling them your reruns or whether you want to save those reruns (provided you have rights to them) and launch an OTT app yourself.
There are pros and cons to both, but remember that launching a successful OTT app requires skills and people that are not native to your organization. So be sure to factor that in.
And if you're a brand, start thinking about branded content and addressable advertising now, because they're both more or less inevitable later.
2. But It Needs To Start Marketing Its Original Series
Netflix has been lucky thus far with its original series: they've largely been able to get by on word of mouth and media buzz around each new series launch.
But that's less and less the case these days, and since Netflix releases all episodes at once, the window in which these shows can develop any sort of buzz is very small: other networks, which release shows weekly, have several months to build up buzz and an audience.
Now Netflix, which relies on subscribers, can afford to let shows do a slow build, but they can't afford for them to disappear completely.
Which is definitely a real danger for them now, as both new series and new movies are added at a dizzying pace.
Why It Matters
Take Ozark, for example, a new series starring Jason Bateman, that launches today. It has a 73% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, which is pretty respectable. The problem is that it's fighting for mind share with the return of Game of Thrones and blockbuster summer movies like Dunkirk, Spiderman and War for the Planet of the Apes.
That means Netflix can no longer rely on buzz and needs to step up its marketing game. Yes, the Netflix algorithm can surface shows like Ozark to the type of audience that's likely to want to see it, but people don't watch shows because Netflix recommends them: they watch because their friends recommend them or because they just read an article about them on Facebook.
It's just human nature.
What You Need To Do About It
If you're Netflix, you need to look at how movies are marketed rather than TV shows, if only to understand how to create buzz in a limited time frame. Long tail marketing efforts using Facebook are likely to be key to this effort too, but with so many original series available, Netflix is going to have to bite the bullet and double down on marketing.

Computer Managed Instruction (CMI) and Student Motivation.
Ray, Harold S.
In spring 1983, a study was conducted at a military school to analyze motivation in four self-paced computer-managed instruction (CMI) courses, in which a computer was used to predict time for course completion, guide students, monitor their progress, assign tests, and grade results. In the two classes serving as control groups, no additional motivational stimuli were applied other than standard incentive days off. In the two experimental classes, specific motivational stimuli were applied through classroom postings naming students who had improved and accompanying public praise. Progress, learning rate, and progress rate statistics were compared for all four classes at 2-week intervals. Study findings showed that although all four classes began with statistics near or worse than the school average the two experimental classes showed improvement shortly after the motivational stimuli were introduced and that they achieved and maintained better than average learning and progress rates throughout the 8-week research period. In contrast, the two control groups statistics were sporadic and overall remained worse than the school average. Based on study findings, it was recommended that statistics of student progress be provided to instructors on a daily basis, that further research on student motivation be undertaken, and that performance praise be integrated into CMI.

Sun. Surf. Yoga. You.
At Pura Vida Lodge, we believe that Yoga can improve the strength, flexibility and balance in the mind and the body, which will be helpful for your surf skills.
We organise every month an "Surf & Yoga" week at Mimizan Plage, France. You're welcome from 6-13/6, 4-11/7, 8-15/8, 5-12/9 and 3-10/10 2015.
The "Surf & Yoga" retreat is kind of an "all-in" week: from a comfy bed, extended breakfast buffet, delicious dinners, a nice garden with heated pool, fire-place and sun-deck, Surf & Yoga courses every day, all surf materials (boards and wetsuits), Electra beachcruiser, Free Wifi (from your hammock to the Fatboys in the garden.)
We'd like to welcome everyone that is over 21yrs and open minded for Surf & Yoga. You don't need any experience, but if you do, you'll deepen your Yoga skills and/or Surf practice this week.
Our teacher An took a classic Hatha Yoga training in India (Sivananda), and was fascinated to see how the body can become extremely lean and strong, but even more to find out how body and mind are one with the breath control as a link between them.
The love for India and its ancient culture brought her back to study Ayurvedic principles and massage techniques. Later she travelled to Thaïland and Laos to develop Thaï Massage skills. And a sauce above all that came in 2010 when An became AcroYoga teacher, a discipline that brings together Yoga, Acrobatics and Thaï Massage. She adores the playful and joyful dimension, the partner yoga and the 'flying', developing self confidence and confidence in others !

Recipe: Spiced Beef Meatballs, with Herby Nutty Couscous
I suppose using pre-made meatballs is slightly cheating but this is a nice quick way of making a meatball dish without having to get your hands all dirty mixing fresh meatballs. Delicious beef meatballs cooked in a spicy tomato sauce, served with coriander and toasted pine nut cous cous. Mmmmm. The dukka spice mix recipe can be found on my Mushroom and Chickpea Tagine recipe. it is essentially a ground blend of toasted cumin, coriander and sesame seeds.
Spiced Beef Meatballs, served with lime and coriander couscous (serves 2)
Meatballs and Sauce
3 tbsp olive oil
12 Sainsbury's beef meatballs (they are small and come in packs of 20)
1 red onion, diced
3 cloves garlic, crushed
2 tsp dukka
1 tin chopped tomatoes
1 green chilli, diced
1.5 tsp sugar
100ml beef stock
Salt and pepper to taste
Lime, coriander and toasted pine nut couscous
120g cous cous
150ml boiled water
Knob of butter
Juice of ½ lime, or 1 tbsp lime juice
Handful fresh coriander, roughly chopped
30g pine nuts, toasted
½ tsp dukka
Salt and pepper to taste
1. In a deep frying pan, heat the oil on a high heat and brown the meatballs evenly (this should take about 5 minutes). Remove the meatballs and set aside. Lower the temperature a little and sauté the red onion and garlic, covered, for 5 minutes, until softened.
2. Stir in the dukka and stir for 1 minute. Add the tomatoes, chilli and sugar, stir in and cook covered for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
3. Cool down this mixture slightly and blend in a food processor. Return the blended mixture to the pan, along with the beef stock and the reserved meatballs. Cook the mixture on a high heat for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
4. Meanwhile, pour the couscous into a mixing bowl. Pour over the boiling water, add a knob of butter, and cover. It should take about 5 minutes to absorb all the liquid. Add the lime juice, coriander, pine nuts and dukka, and "fluff up" the couscous with a fork.
5. Season the meatballs and couscous to taste and serve!

In 1689 the emperor and Tsar Peter I the Great of Russia signed the Treaty of Nerchinsk. This treaty gave the Amur valley and Manchuria to China. In 1696 the Kangxi emperor set off on a daring and extremely dangerous venture to the…

What is happening around you
Sometimes the Key to Good Health and Happiness is really what is happening Around You like
Soccer in the park… Live music at the pub… An art exhibition down the road… your local school fete.
This surely Could be the key to good health and happiness!! Michael Dovey, the founder of local events website
www.aroundYou.com.au definitely thinks so. "Participating in social activities not only helps to generate a sense of belonging to the community, but it is also important for your health and happiness.
Launch of around You
www.AroundYou.com.au is a new website that details over 17,000 local events and activities right around
Australia. All you have to do is enter your postcode and you will find concerts, art exhibitions, sporting events,
fundraisers, book clubs, kid's events, theatre performances and more.
"We know from studies carried out by the National Heart Foundation that being socially isolated is a significant
risk factor for heart disease and increased mortality and that it is of equal significance to the higher profile risk
factors such as smoking and obesity.
Around You helps people easily find 'things to do' in their local area. This is something that other websites, event guides and search engines have struggled to do well in the past. The website strives to make it easy for people to be able to get out there and get active doing something that they enjoy. This could be going to see a live gig at the pub or it could be taking up art classes at your local community college.
AroundYou is the largest compilation of local event and activity information in Australia and its social impact
was recently recognised by The Australian Centre For Social Innovation, where AroundYou was announced as a
winner in the 'Bold Ideas. Better Lives' challenge by the Premier of South Australia, Mike Rann. AroundYou will
now share in a prize pool of $1 million, to be split amongst the eight winners.
Around You has three principal aims:
1. Empower people with knowledge about what's on in their local area.
2. Make it easier for people to 'connect' with each other in the real world.
3. Provide accurate, reliable and up to date information for all areas of Australia.
You can go visit and take part in this innovative new launch over here at www.aroundyou.com.au

Thanks — or rather no thanks — to the Internet, it's now possible to work all the time. That 9-to-5 job you signed up for now goes around the clock, and that's bound to leave you feeling busy and overwhelmed. Funnily enough, taking on more projects doesn't necessarily mean getting more done, and as Laura Garnett explains in a helpful Daily Muse post titled "5 Ways to Stop Being So Busy (While Still Getting Everything Done)," being scattered leads to burnout, and that's bad for productivity.
Garnett offers some fantastic tips for tweaking your schedule, making things more manageable, and still checking things off your to-do list. Read on to see what she suggests.
1. Stick to Your Talents — Are you taking on tasks that don't excite you, or that you're simply no good at? This is bound to leave you feeling drained and uninspired, Garnett writes. If you run a business, hire someone else to lighten the load. If you work for a company, see if you can pass the work off to someone with the right skill set.
2. Don't Attend Every Meeting — If your presence isn't absolutely essential, don't go.
3. Leave Time for Thinking — There's one person you should always take time to meet with: yourself. Carve out a block every day to think about your work and how you'd like to move forward.
4. Figure Out Why You're Busy — At the start of each week, take stock of things and ask yourself, "Why the heck am I so busy?" "Taking some time to understand what's causing your personal bottleneck may add to the load in the short term, but figuring out what your capacity is — and learning not to take too much on — can save you time in the long run," Garnett writes.
5. Stop the Multi-Tasking — As MIT neuroscientist Earl Miller told NPR, humans stink at multi-tasking. We only think we're good at it. Quit the juggling act and focus on one thing at a tim.

I've been having fun lately reconnecting with old friends through the magic of Facebook. Although I lived in the same town from 3rd grade through high school graduation, I haven't done a good job of staying in touch with the people I grew up with. What's especially interesting is what these old and far flung friends remember about me. Most of it centers around food. Specifically, me making it. I guess I was bound to circle back to food, because it was a large component of who I was growing up.
These revelations from old friends have go me to remembering what I did do growing up. Like sleepovers. I loved sleepovers. I can not wait until my daughters have them. There is nothing like staying up all night with your girlfriends doing nothing but chatting and laughing at mindless TV and just being while the rest of the known universe slumbers. All that and baking brownies, too.
My go to sleepover activity was baking a pan of brownies at midnight and eating them for the rest of the night. Nothing can compare to a fresh-baked brownie in the evening for comfort food. There is something about the butter, sugar & chocolate squares that send me right back to the happy giggle land of my early teen years.
My first brownies came right out of Betty Crocker's Everything You Need to Know to Cook. Butter, cocoa powder, eggs, a touch of flour. Super simple (especially for a gaggle of 12-year-olds) but lovely when done. They have the classic crackling top, nice chocolate flavor and a good dense cakey texture.
Of course, I've baked all sorts of brownies since then. From insanely rich melted chocolate and heavy cream based ones, to lovely fudgey combinations of melted chocolate and cocoa powder. I've made them for countless catering activities, lunches, play-dates, classes and just because reasons. But I still reach for the quick cocoa powder version I first began with when a brownies craving hits. The ease of execution and almost immediate gratification aside, cocoa powder brownies make me feel like a kid again.
Instead of offering up a recipe today, I encourage you to go dust off an old-school cookbook and go make a batch of brownies. My guess is, you'll be transported right back to your very first brownie in no time flat.

Many in New York City don't have wills. Few have any valid excuse for being in that situation. If you work, are investing money for retirement and care for the welfare of your family, you should have a plan. If you have complex assets, it is even more important to create a plan. If you are one of those who has good planning intention but hasn't followed through, it's time to get a move on.
Managing the estate executor role
It's an honor to be named executor of a will, but it's also hard work. While most executors understand their role, there can be a lot of confusion when it comes down to getting things done. Unless you work in the legal industry, the order of the process, the different types of paperwork and all of the loose ends can be difficult to manage.
Caring for the elderly can cost more than raising a child, report finds
It is no surprise that the cost of caring for ourselves and our loved ones as we age is expensive. We expect there to be certain costs tied to nursing care, medical care and other needs as we age. We plan, we save and we do our best to make the right choices for our family's future financial stability.
Avoid these three headaches by getting an estate plan
Putting together an estate plan is likely on your to-do list. You know that list. The one that also includes other fun projects like putting together a budget, double checking the health insurance policy and cleaning out the basement. This list likely gets brushed aside on a regular basis.
We can all learn from Prince's estate planning mistakes
Recently, the world was shocked to learn of the unexpected death of the musical legend Prince. Best known for his provocative lyrics and flashy on-stage performances, Prince was also intensely private and fought fiercely to maintain ownership of and control over his music. For someone who, in his private life, shied away from the cameras; recent reports that Prince died without a will or estate plan are all the more shocking as the late-musician's private financial affairs will now become public record.
How to help loved ones who are victims of power of attorney abuse
Most people in New York and across the country offer assistance to their loved ones as they age. From offering help doing daily chores to finding affordable health care options, there are a countless number of ways in which we can offer our loved ones help during a time in their lives when they perhaps need it the most.
Can you disclaim an inheritance? - Part II
In our last post, we began a discussion about the possibility of disclaiming an inheritance. Popular culture generally treats the concept of inheritance as a welcome one. When loved ones pass away and leave their friends and family gifts of money, property or other assets, popular culture tends to portray these gifts as meaningful and inviting. In reality, familial relationships are complex. And regardless of whether or not the loved one who has died was beloved and will be missed, a host of reasons may inspire an individual to attempt to disclaim any given inheritance.
Avoiding a very common estate planning misstep
Frequent visitors to our blog are likely aware of how important estate planning can be. Not only can this process help you to ensure that your wishes regarding property are known in the event of your death, this process can also help to ensure that your medical wishes and end-of-life care preferences are known as well. It can help you guard your property against certain taxes after your death and it can help to ensure that your wealth is distributed in accordance with your priorities and values.
Can you challenge a power of attorney document?
A power of attorney document allows an individual to name another individual as his or her agent. Should the individual executing the power of attorney document become unable to make his or her own decisions, the agent may legally make decisions for that individual. Depending on the scope of the contract, the agent may be able to make medical decisions, financial decisions and other important decisions on behalf of the individual named within the contract.

My mother found my first car in the PennySaver. It was a used silver 1987 Toyota minivan and to my great delight, the first owner had spared no upgrade. The vehicle, marketed in the U.S. simply as "Van," sported swivel seats, a sunroof, a moonroof, four-wheel drive and even a cooler/icemaker with mini ice-cube trays.
We named it the Silver Bullet. With both celestial roofs open to the skies, I drove around south Orange County relishing my freedom. I met friends at Table Rock Beach in Laguna and attended football games at Saddleback College. As I drove home at night, the 5 freeway was nearly empty and the streetlamps shone with copper light.
An '80s-era Toyota minivan has no real front, more like a sheer drop-off where a hood might be. The driver sits atop the engine, inches from the windshield. This gives driving a sense of immediacy and thrill I have yet to experience in more stylish cars. It also gives the vehicle a physics-defying turning radius. From my "captain's chair" (Toyota's official name for my adjustable driver's seat), I could see each jagged detail of the asphalt stretching before me, a reminder of the privilege and the peril of driving. On weekdays, I carefully ferried two neighbor kids and my siblings from Mission Viejo to our Baptist school in San Juan Capistrano, my hands at 10 and 2. We made our way under an early-morning marine layer past fields of wild mustard and the In-N-Out at Avery, a place suspected of wafting the smell of french fries onto the 5 freeway through a series of vents.
Like any loved one, the Silver Bullet had quirks. If I ran the air conditioning too long, the ducts hurled small ice crystals at the faces of back-seat passengers. The narrowness and height of the vehicle meant that it wobbled in autumn when Santa Ana winds gusted. And one day, after the air conditioning gave out, I received an interesting call from our family's mechanic.
"You've got squirrels," he said with profound resignation.
"Excuse me?"
"Squirrels, rats, mice, some sort of animals in your vehicle. They've chewed through the ducts."
I tried not to laugh. At 17, I had yet to understand the heavy realities of money. Whenever I spotted a friend's car at a stoplight on our way to school, I would slowly approach it, hitting the bumper with my van. My friends thought this was hilarious, but their parents were less than charmed.
After a heat wave or two, my own parents were kind enough to get my air conditioning fixed. But in my senior year of high school, a series of practical jokes with a friend spun wildly out of control. After school one day in May, I opened my car door and was hit in the face with a stench, pungent and distinct. The only clue was a metal lid left carefully on the dashboard like a sinister calling card. It belonged to a jar of limburger cheese spread that my now-former friend had liberally slathered under the Silver Bullet's floor mats and left to bake in the sun. That afternoon, I drove my carpool home slowly, our heads as close to the open windows as we could crane our necks. My long-suffering parents again sprang for repairs, this time hiring a mysterious entity named "The Odor Specialist," whom my father located in the phonebook. After several hours of fumigation and potions, my van smelled only vaguely of rotten corpses, the signature scent of cut-rate limburger cheese.
It is the nature of things to change, and soon the van passed to my sister and then my brother. I began driving a black Jetta that had a bit more pickup, but left all sorts of unwanted space between me and the road. After more than a decade, the van was such a fixture in our lives that it seemed we would never part with it. We sometimes dreamed that if ever the Silver Bullet did croak, we would set it afire and launch it, blazing and airborne, into Lake Mission Viejo — our version of a Viking ship funeral.
In college, I read Frances Mayes' lovely book on the study of poetry, but one of her similes always puzzled me. "His death came slowly like a Mexican bus" — what could it mean? Did death make many stops and starts, or fail to pick up speed on thoroughfares? If so, how was a Mexican bus any different than an American bus? When I went to Mexico, to work at an orphanage with my church, say, or to visit Tijuana with my Spanish class, I traveled there in the Silver Bullet. Yet the simile, lodged in my brain, became a sort of prophecy.
In the end, my van's death came slowly in Mexico, perhaps like a Mexican bus. When driving through Ensenada one summer, the van stalled and then started, and then stalled again, this process repeating for hours until a group of compassionate locals helped push it through an intersection. We tinkered with it a bit and coaxed it back to Mission Viejo, but something was clearly wrong.
How is it that objects take on personalities, far out-valuing the sum of their parts? The sound of my mother's violin is as distinct as her voice; it transcends spruce and ebony. My son's first drawings mean much more than paper and crayon. A bottle of wine might conjure the smell of the wind in a sun-soaked field two decades ago. Americans have too much stuff, many say; what matters is relationships. But what are we to feel about our relationships to our stuff? When I gassed up the Silver Bullet and cleaned its windshield, the feeling in my heart was not "I am maintaining this object" or "I am burdened by material possessions." I felt something closer to companionship, even love.
Perhaps cars are special objects because they accompany us through so much of life, during work commutes and errands, airport pickups and road trips. In this way they are like pets, mute but everpresent. Or perhaps cars function more like places, scenes where we receive a first-date kiss or an important phone call from our boss. The Silver Bullet was with me as I listened to Y107 and sang along to '90s songs, as I ate entire quarts of farm-stand strawberries, as I transitioned from child to adult.
When my parents sold the Silver Bullet for parts, we mourned the end of an era, yet wondered how a large trapezoid of metal, glass and ice crystals had driven its way so deeply into our hearts. If I close my eyes, I can still feel an ocean breeze blowing through the moonroof, the faintest smell of limburger lingering in the vents.

Saturday 11th July 2015 – Dulwich Hamlet 3 – 5 Altona 1893
Pre-Season Friendly @ Champion, London
My second visit to Champion Hill in 12 months, original review can be viewed here – this time for a pre-season friendly between Dulwich Hamlet and German non-league outfit Altona 1893.
A visit to Champion Hill by the Hamburg based outfit may seem odd at first, but these two have history; Dulwich themselves articulate it much better than I can on their website.
An entertaining match attended by a healthy contingent of travelling Germans, this one finished 5-3 to the visitors in glorious summer sunshine, accompanied by beer, (huge) burgers and an interesting collection of political posters.
Photos of the trip below – hope you enjoy.

An article from students participating in the University of Waterloo Mentorship Program.
Authors: Jyotika Bedi, Natalia Fong, Katherine French & Diana Nguyen
Nestled in the heart of Mississauga, Dr. Banducci & Associates' practice impressed us with its up-to-date technology, trendy optical boutique, and clever use of space. Immediately, we were welcomed by Dr. Banducci with his warm smile and kind gestures. He insisted us to ask him as many questions as possible and he was very honest with his answers. We started off asking him how he went from engineering to optometry. His journey was inspiring since he was married with a family at that time. Dr. Banducci also told us his pathway to joining a practice and then preparing to own an eye clinic. His personal experiences about business in optometry was extremely valuable and each one of us gained beneficial knowledge that night.
In addition, it was eye-opening to see how much thought and creativity went into designing each square inch, with the layout carefully arranged to optimize patient flow and staff efficiency. There was even an innovative use of a two-way mirror, which gave the staff privacy to do their work, while allowing them to still keep an eye on what was happening in the dispensary. This gave us all lots of new and innovative ideas to take with us!
In the evening we continued our discussion of practice management issues in optometry over dinner at Boston Pizza. Meeting with Dr. Banducci as a group not only allowed us to learn from each other's questions and ideas but also enjoy a great dinner with a great company of colleagues. Hearing other students speak about their passions about optometry really demonstrated the wide diversity present in the profession. It was interesting to learn about the different experiences students have had in their journeys thus far through work, volunteer, and shadowing opportunities. Thank you so much Dr. Banducci for the amazing opportunity! Look forward to another CAOS Mentorship visit next year!

... results soon... besides anxious and withdrawn, Has anyone else felt this and about how long did it take to feel some good effects??? Thanks
Hi I am New to this... and just began Wellbutrin a couple weeks ago... hoping I start feeling some?

Welcome curiousone! It does take awhile for the medication to work. It can take as much as a month for full effects. The dose is usually titrated up over the first couple of months as well. What dose does the doctor have you on? Hang in there and give it a good try. If this one doesn't work, there are others to try so do not despair.
Thank you..I am also on Prozac... which the doc told me could cause drowsiness... I am ALWAYS Tired!!! So he put me on the Wellbutrin to help with Energy I am on 150ml. since Dec 18th 2012... so I will hang in there... and see what happens. Thanks again to you. Take care.
The theraputic level for Wellbutrin (bupropion) is 300mgs so be patient and realize you may need to increase before you feel the maximum effects. Do not increase before the doctor's instruction though. I take Wellbutrin along with another antidepressant and have found it very effective.
ok... thanks... that helps I will keep this in mind.
Laurie gave you great advice so I have nothing to add to that. I was wondering when you feel better if you'll keep us posted. I have a friend wanting to switch to Wellbutrin from Celexa due to gaining weight on Celexa. He was on it when he was younger and remembers feeling edgy, nervous and withdrawn as well. Are you just feeling anxious and withdrawn since starting? I've never heard of Wellbutrin being used for energy but I'm not well versed on SSRI's. but do you do B12 injections? I do monthly for energy. I hope those feelings pass for you and if so maybe he wasn't on the correct dosage or didn't wait it out. Just wondering. This is more of an informational question. Best of luck to you. You can always send me a PQ if you'd like. :)
Thank you for your comment... that's what I am hoping.
