Mastitis bolus, natural antibiotics for clinical mastitis prevention.
Mastitis bolus
Subclinical mastitis is the precursor of clinical mastitis and antibiotic use. This goes hand in hand with milk spillage in the form of production stop. Losing money on a cow is never good business. Mastitis bolus as a prevention is being used in dairy farms protocols at an increasing rate. Hence the recommendation of using a mastitis bolus in order prevent clinical mastitis.
Consists of essential oils from different herbs and garlic extracts with natural antibiotic activities. The mastitis bolus releases a high dose of natural antibiotics on a daily base. The bolus is the solution for the reduction of antibiotics in farms. Mastitis prevention will be visual in the lower costs per cow and an increase in milk production.
The solution is Mammitop Bolus:
- Prevents mastitis
- Indicated use in cases of subclinical mastitis
- Works for 3 weeks
- No veterinary prescription needed
- No resistance possible
- No waiting time for milk or meat
1 Mammitop mastitis bolus 2 weeks before calving
1 Mammitop mastitis bolus in situation with increasing cell count or LDH-values
4 Mammitop boluses of 95 g.
Prevent hypo magnesia or tetany with a magnesium bolus of 30 days.
Magnesium bolus supplementation in periods of magnesium deficiency. A longer period of hypo magnesia can cause tetany. This occurs when the feed ration shows a Magnesium deficiency or an excess of Potassium, leading to poor absorption of Magnesium. Young grass is typically low in Magnesium.
Mineral bolus with 6 months of trace minerals for grazing cattle.
Different soils and forage have differing mineral content. The mineral bolus prevents grazing cattle to show insufficient mineral intake leading to decreased fertility, weaker general health status, weaker calf and growth problems. Trace mineral bolus work as a slow release bolus over 6 months.
Iron shortage in newborn calves. Prevent anaemia with our Iron bolus
Iron deficiency can cause anaemia in calves and is, therefore, of economic importance for the farm. Iron deficiency in newborn calves is commonly caused by feeding whole milk without the addition of dietary supplements like the iron bolus.
Makes calves drink when suffering from diarrhea
6 months of trace minerals and vitamins
Prevent Metritis
Prevents Milk Fever
Growth and resistance for young cattle
Optimal preparation for dry cows
Increase your chances for insemination
Prevention against Milk fever and Downer syndrome

Developing an adaptive diagnostic vocabulary/grammar test for Swedish
Implement an adaptive diagnostic test for vocabulary and/or grammar for Swedish, based on Second Language Acquisition (SLA) research and frequency statistics available from the COCTAILL corpus.
The currently developed application Lärka, www.spraakbanken.gu.se/larka [3], is intended for computer-assisted language learning of L2 Swedish. Lärka generates a number of exercises based on corpora available through Korp. Attempts are being made to align generated exercises with CEFR proficiency scales (http://www.coe.int/t/dg4/linguistic/Source/Framework_en.pdf [4]). The actual users, however, may not know their level when they start working with the exercise generator. It is therefore important (and user-friendly) to offer some sort of placement/diagnostic test for those who may need it.
Some examples of existing diagnostic tests for vocabulary are:
- CATSS – Computer-Adaptive Test of Size and Strength http://hcc.haifa.ac.il/~blaufer/ [5]
- Levels tests (by Tom Cobb) http://www.er.uqam.ca/nobel/r21270/levels/ [6]
- Levels Test (by Paul Nation) http://www.victoria.ac.nz/lals/about/staff/paul-nation [7]
Problem description
The aims of this work are the following:
- to study literature on diagnostic testing for different language skills and competences that are relevant for the CEFR;
- to find out about other "actors" dealing with CEFR-based tests for Swedish, especially for placement/diagnosis; as a result, to suggest a format for a placement test for one or (better) a range of language skills and competences mentioned in the CEFR
- to implement the suggested test(s) in the form of web services that can be embedded into Lärka platform (+ eventually develop the user interface module for that). Here it would be interesting, for example, to see formats where free answers could be provided and scored
- evaluate/test on users (language learners, teachers, linguists, etc.)
Recommended skills:
- Python
- interest in Lexical Semantics
- Elena Volodina, Ildiko Pilan
- potentially others from Språkbanken

"If you've ever wanted to hear a band that's about to hit it's stride, [Fuzzy & the Surfs] is the album to check out immediately. With a sound reminiscent of 60's pop, the band puts a refresh on a tried and true formula, with clean guitars, crisp organ keys, and melodies that will be stuck in your head for days." - Allen Halas
"Fuzzysurf is a band suited for any era. Since formally introducing themselves to Milwaukee music fans with 2017's great Me Wocky EP, the quartet has quickly garnered attention with their distinct sound that perfectly blends elements of '60s-era surf pop with aspects of modern day indie rock." (from Milwaukee Record's "25 Best Albums of 2019"). The Milwaukee-based quartet is composed of Sean Lehner (vox/guitar), Corey Murphy (organ/electric piano/keyboard), Ben Giddens (bass/vox), and Mike Roy (drums).

GOSHEN - A retired NYPD lieutenant from Greenwood Lake pleaded guilty Wednesday in Orange County Court to forcibly raping two teenage girls he knew.
Nicholas McAteer, 46, pleaded guilty to two counts of first-degree rape, a felony, one count relating to each of the girls, who are now adults.
McAteer opted for the plea as the court was about to start picking a jury for his trial.
In exchange for McAteer's guilty plea, prosecutors will recommend a sentence of 18 years in prison plus 10 years of post-release supervision on each count. The sentences will run concurrently.
Judge William DeProspo said he'll cap the sentence there. McAteer will also be required to register as a sex offender.
McAteer, who was a lieutenant with the NYPD into 2017, according to online public employee salary data at seethroughny.org, was arrested in August on charges of sexually assaulting one of the girls. The second woman then stepped forward, and in October an Orange County grand jury handed up an indictment charging him with 81 felony counts, including three first-degree rape charges, two counts of use of a child in a sexual performance and multiple counts of second- and third-degree criminal sexual act. The plea was taken to cover all of those counts.
McAteer has been free on $25,000 bail since August. That changed after his guilty plea.
In court on Wednesday, McAteer appeared stoic, flanked by his lawyers, Anthony DiFiore and Andrew Quinn of the Quinn Law Firm in White Plains.
As Senior Assistant District Attorney Michael Milza questioned him, McAteer admitted that he forcibly raped one victim in early 2011 when she was 15, and the other in the fall of 2007 when she was 18. Both assaults happened in southern Orange County.
When the plea proceeding ended, the judge ordered McAteer jailed without bail until his sentencing on June 13.
Orange County District Attorney David Hoovler said the 18-year sentence is significant, and spares the women from having to testify and relive the trauma.
The case against McAteer had many of the hallmarks of a child sexual abuse case, Hoovler said: post-traumatic stress for the victims, delayed disclosure, a dearth of physical evidence.
Hoovler said prosecutors had the admissions McAteer made when family members confronted him over his conduct, and victims who were compelling in their testimony and able to corroborate some of the things they said.
"I'm very confident he's going to receive 18 years," Hoovler said.

Determining Your Classic Car Value
Your classic car value is not determined through an exact science. The value is a measure of the approximate value an investor would be willing to pay for your car. This is essentially a "market price" rather than a flat quote. For this reason, you may find different answers depending on how you go about determining your car's value.
Getting an Industry Quote
A good place to start estimating the value of your collectible car is through industry quotes. Quotes are available through "Kelly Blue Book," the National Auto Dealers Association and in trade-specific magazines. "Kelly Blue Book" uses factors such as the car's initial value, appreciation or depreciation factors, and the condition of the vehicle to measure an estimated price. The NADA guide will quote a list price based on an inventory of recent sales secured at auction. Trade magazines are more likely to have values specifically determined by classic car enthusiasts. These prices tend to take into account the most factors, but they are also more likely to be inflated since the demand for the car is highest in the industry-specific magazine.
Factors Affecting Value
Quality is likely the biggest factor in the value of your car. The better kept the car, the more highly it will be priced. Dealers will also consider whether the car has been kept in its original condition. Replacing car parts with originals is essential to retaining the car's value if you intend to repair the vehicle. Finally, the scarcity of the vehicle will be a large factor in its value. The rarer a car was at the time of its production, the more valuable it will be today. Even standard classic cars that had little intrigue at the time they were produced can be very valuable today if they are rare.
Locating an Appraiser
To quote an estimated value of your specific vehicle, you will need an appraiser. A classic car appraiser knows the market, and he or she also has a deep knowledge of how the classic car should appear, operate and otherwise be maintained. An appraiser will consider the condition of your car, paying specific attention to the upgrades or features that will appeal to buyers. For example, a classic sports car with a larger engine upgrade may be more appealing than a classic sports car with a standard engine. This is true, of course, only if the larger engine is an original.
Taking a Car to Auction
The real value of your car can be measured only by a potential buyer. You may have a car appraised at $160,000, but if you can find a buyer only at the low price of $120,000, then your car is "worth" $120,000. This is how the classic car market goes--the time to sell is when you can locate the highest bidder. For this reason, auction is a great method to get the car sold at a high price. Classic car auctions bring car enthusiasts together, giving you the chance to value your car in front of the biggest market.

HONEST TO JESUS: A few weeks ahead of the Easter bunny, Bart Ehrman is back on the hardcover nonfiction list with "Jesus, Interrupted: Revealing the Hidden Contradictions in the Bible (And Why We Don't Know About Them)," which enters at No. 8. Back in 2006, Ehrman, a professor of religious studies at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, had a surprise hit with "Misquoting Jesus: The Story Behind Who Changed the Bible (and Why)," which spent nine weeks on the list. Ehrman — who grew up casually Episcopalian, became a fundamentalist in high school, had his faith eroded by decades of studying the Bible's textual history and now calls himself a "happy agnostic" — seems to be riding the same anti-religion wave that has swept Sam Harris, Richard Dawkins and Christopher Hitchens onto the best-seller list and late-night talk shows. But he says that while they share some readers, he tries to distance himself from the so-called new atheists.
"They seem to understand so little about religion," he told me in a telephone interview. "If somebody attacked science with as little knowledge, they'd be laughed off the map." Ehrman himself has certainly taken some knocks. Writing in Books & Culture, a magazine often referred to (deservedly) as a sort of Christian New York Review of Books, the scholar Robert H. Gundry took him to task for exaggerating the theological significance of some of the mistakes and inconsistencies inserted into the New Testament by generations of copyists, and for having too literal an idea of what it might mean for the Bible to be divinely inspired. Gundry also blasted Ehrman for his misleading title, but it turns out that Ehrman didn't much like it either. "I wanted to call it 'Lost in Transmission,' but my publisher thought that people in the South would think it was about stock car racing," he said. Is Ehrman worried that "Jesus, Interrupted" — another title chosen by his publisher — sounds like a chronicle of Winona Ryder and Angelina Jolie's adventures in a faith-based mental hospital? "It's a really terrific title which I wish I had come up with," he said. "The book is about how the voice of Jesus gets changed by all these other messages, and how these different voices are impeding the voice of Jesus. But some people have made jokes about coitus interruptus."
UNKINDLY ONES: Jodi Picoult's "Handle With Care" enters the hardcover fiction list at No. 1, knocking out former champ "Promises in Death" by J. D. Robb (a k a Nora Roberts). Meanwhile, Jonathan Littell's European blockbuster "The Kindly Ones" lands at No. 27, giving hope to 983-page, translated-from-the-French Holocaust novels everywhere. Critical reception has been divided, to say the least. Writing in The New York Review of Books, Daniel Mendelsohn praised it as an impressively ambitious if flawed revision of the Orestes myth, while in the Book Review of March 8 David Gates said it was more reminiscent of "those kiddie-historical fictions I used to read when I was 10 or 11" and "a middlebrow historical epic gone willfully weird."

A slender steel arch towers on the banks of the Mississippi River at St. Louis, graceful in its sweep toward the sky. The Gateway Arch symbolizes Missouri's enduring status as linchpin between civilization and frontier, east and west, north and south. Situated in the geographic center of the U.S., Missouri is surrounded by Illinois, Kentucky, and Tennessee to the east; Arkansas to the south; Oklahoma, Kansas, and Nebraska to the west; and Iowa to the north. Water defines much of this landlocked state, from the presence of two great rivers--the Mississippi on its eastern border and the Missouri meandering through its heart--to countless smaller rivers and streams and an array of lakes, especially in the state's southwestern quarter.
Missouri has 10 state-designated tourism regions. The northern third includes Pony Express country, where the "lightning mail" began and outlaw Jesse James spent his final years; the Chariton Valley, notable for its wildlife refuges; and Mark Twain country, where writer Samuel Clemens (a.k.a. Mark Twain) got the material for his famous tales of Huckleberry Finn, Tom Sawyer, and Becky Thatcher. In the center of the state, from west to east, vibrant Kansas City is full of history and culture; Osage Lakes offers abundant recreation on its public lands; Lake of the Ozarks features resort communities, the state capital at Jefferson City, and the Katy Trail; and St. Louis has everything from big-time sports and fine wineries to caverns and casino riverboats. The state's southern third includes the Ozark Mountain region, best known as home to the entertainment center of Branson; Ozark Heritage country, featuring scenic canoeing on the Jacks Fork, Current, and Meramec rivers; and the River Her itage region, where the Mississippi rolls past quiet towns including the French-flavored Ste. Genevieve.
Ste. Genevieve was the site of Missouri's first permanent white settlement, about 1750. But the region had been inhabited as early as 12,000 years before, first by Paleo-Indians who hunted prehistoric animals, later by mound-building Mississippian peoples. Except for about 35 years in the late 18th-century, France had control of Missouri from 1682 until the Louisiana Purchase of 1803. It was the Louisiana Purchase that compelled President Thomas Jefferson to send explorers Meriwether Lewis and William Clark west from St. Louis in 1804 to explore the newly acquired lands along the Missouri River. Missouri soon became the staging area for many other westward journeys, including the Santa Fe Trail, Oregon, and California trails and the Pony Express.
In the Civil War, Missourians fought on both sides in the war, with about 110,000 troops defending the Union and 40,000 going Confederate. That characteristic, frontier-forged independence gave Missouri its nickname when Congressman Willard Vandiver said in 1899 that "frothy eloquence neither convinces nor satisfies me. I'm from Missouri. You've got to show me." Missourians have always appreciated a good show, whether from a country music star at Branson or baseball slugger Mark McGwire at Busch Stadium. With a colorful cast of characters past and present, life's rich pageant plays on in Missouri.

Group Homes for Troubled Teens from Virginia
In most cases, sending their child to a distant program for an extended amount of time is perhaps one of the toughest choices a parent from Virginia will ever have to make. However, when it is absolutely necessary, the choice to do so is a critical one that must be made for the child's sake. Failure to do so could result in tragic, even lifelong consequences.
When met with this choice, parents often look to programs that they have heard of or are most familiar with. One of the most popularly sought after programs is group homes for troubled teens.
Group homes for troubled teens are a popular choice among parents from Virginia whose teen struggles with mental and behavioral health-related issues - namely, issues related to substance abuse/addiction and mental illness.
Alternatively, some group homes are used as a transitional program where teens who have recently been released from a psychiatric hospital or juvenile detention center can be placed before they return home.
The length of time a troubled teen is required to stay in a group home greatly varies and depends on several factors, including the group home itself as well as the severity of the child particular issues - Generally speaking, this ranges from a few months to a year, and in extreme cases, even longer.
What Kind of Issues Does a Group Home for Troubled Teens in Virginia Treat?
Similar to that of most programs that are self-described as facilities for troubled youth, group homes for troubled teens from Virginia are well versed in treating a myriad of mental and behavioral health related issues, including:
- Mental illnesses eg. Depression, Bipolar Disorder, OCD, ADHD
- Substance abuse/addiction rehabilitation
- Dangerous, self-destructive behaviors eg. self-harm, eating disorders, anger management, and other compulsivity-related issues
What Parents from Virginia Need to Know About Group Homes for Troubled Teens
Before parents from Virginia seeking the services of this particular type of treatment facility get their hopes up, however, they should first be made aware of a few things.
For instance, while they are one of the most well known and sought after, group homes for troubled teens are often the most difficult programs for parents from Virginia to place their child.
There are several reasons for this, the foremost being, most group homes are not, in actuality, designed to treat troubled teen-related issues. Rather, the overwhelming majority of group homes are live-in homes for severely disabled or injured peoples. While group homes for troubled teens, do, in fact, exist, they are far outnumbered by group homes that cater to the disabled.
However, in recent years, there has been a meteoric rise in alternative programs that offer similarly specialized treatment to troubled teens for parents from Virginia to consider. Among them are specialized residential treatment centers that, similar to a group home, treat a limited number of teenage clients - so as to ensure the most individualized and clinically intensive treatment for each student is met.
Group Therapy at Family First Adolescent Services
At Family First, one of our foundational treatments is that of group therapy.
Through years of our own personal experience in interacting with troubled teens from Virginia and beyond, we at Family First have come to find that when a teen interacts and confides in those who face similar issues to their own, they are more able and willing to open up therapeutically.
This shared experience, when combined with the comfort of a structured environment, allows previously guarded teens to explore and engage in new ways including developing new behavioral strategies, therapeutic role-playing, and one-on-one, intimate interactions with a psychiatrist or that of a positive peer-influence. dd
Unlike individual sessions, group therapy allows participants to interact with others who have mutually struggled with similar afflictions such as:
- Illicit Substance Use
- Alcohol Use
- Depression
- Anxiety Disorders
- Gaming Disorders
Group therapy is particularly helpful once participating members begin to develop trust in one another. It is this mutual bonding experience that enables members to speak freely and express difficult feelings.
Additionally, by participating in group therapy sessions the client learns to interact with others in a healthy and productive manner.
Looking for Immediate Assistance? Family First Here To Provide Help!
Family First Adolescent Services is here to provide help and ongoing support.
Above all else, we believe in early intervention: treating the mental and behavioral issues of a troubled teen early on in order to greatly improve their chances of achieving full recovery through treatment. In other words, our adolescent program focuses on treating the underlying traumas that often lead to substance use before said issues become long-lasting (or life-long) problems.
For further information or assistance regarding how we can serve you today, please call us now at (833) 241-7746.
We help families create a roadmap towards sustainable healing with ongoing continuing care support for up to a year or more after a teen completes residential treatment. Call (800) 881-9945
Virginia Mental Health Resources for Troubled Youth
Many families from Virginia who are seeking help, have made Family First Adolescent Services their first choice for their troubled child who may be experiencing substance abuse (including marijuana), behavioral misconduct, or clinical depression related issues. Here at Family First AS, our therapists understand the common issues that troubled teens from Virginia are faced with every day; and we offer help to our students, so they can recognize and deal with their social-related problems in a way that is both healthy and productive. Our robust outdoor recreation and adventure therapy programs rely on connection, trust, and respect; thus inspiring an internally motivated restoration that lasts a lifetime.
Family First' therapists and field staff discourage judgments and labels, and never allow a diagnosis to interfere with what troubled teenagers have in common with each other - their humanity. We have provided assistance to numerous families from all over the nation, including those from Virginia; Our experienced therapists offer a variety of relevant residential treatment strategies (equine, life training, behavioral therapy); helping students toward the path of restoration for teenagers experiencing pain medication abuse/addiction, clinical depression, or academic failure related trials.
Family First AS has transformed the lives of countless troubled teens over the years, including many from Virginia. Our approach has improved the lives of our troubled students, and their families. We see that struggling teenagers can grow to be healthy adults with a desire to succeed! Family First AS understands that in order for our troubled students to experience real restoration, the entire family needs to be part of the life skills development and experiential education help that our therapists offer. Our family advocates can be reached immediately at (833) 241-7746.

For the first time ever, the workplace is composed of multiple generations: the traditionalists, the baby boomers, Gen X, and an infiltration of younger millennials, all working alongside across a large spectrum of industries. So, maintaining an inclusive company culture is more important than ever.
According to a survey by specialty recruitment firms, Accounting Principals and Ajilon revealed that 14 percent of workers admit that company culture will push them to accept another job offer. A survey by Robert Half, a global staffing firm, stated that 91 percent of U.S. hiring managers said that cultural fit is "more important than experience or skills."
How can you make your company more inclusive of generational differences?
Consider the multifaceted touch points that influence your employees' entire experience, from recruiting and hiring to promotion and recognition with your company, and try your best to improve all of them.
Workplace holidays are a great way to improve the employee experience, whether an employee may be brand new or a seasoned veteran.
4 Fun Holiday Ideas To Consider Adding To The Company Calendar
World Compliment Day, March 1
Take your office appreciation jar one step further with an entire compliment wall on March 1. The week leading up the holiday, ask employees to write appreciations for their co-workers on sticky notes. Instead of adding to a jar, post openly on an exposed wall in the office for all to see.
On the big day, take some time out of the workday for all of your employees to come together and read the appreciation notes aloud. Leave the sticky notes on the wall up for a few days so every day when your employees are walking by they feel appreciated and valued by their co-workers and the company.
International Women's Day, March 8
Don't forget to say thank you to all the women that help keep your business afloat. Even the slightest appreciation and gesture could go a lot further than you may think. Try ordering an office lunch, or a special dessert to recognize all of their hard work. Consider a ladies happy hour or an office outing to a spa or a place of their choosing, on the house.
Lookalike Day, April 20
Is there someone in your office that is known as a "mini-me?" Or is there a running joke that person X looks and acts like person Y? Push the joke even further and perhaps chose one person in the office that everyone can dress up as. Let this day be a more casual and fun Halloween for all of your employees to take part in.
Leave the Office Early Day, June 3
It's pretty self-explanatory why your employees would appreciate this one. Give them a half-day to go and enjoy the summer!
International Coffee Day, October 1
Give your office a morning makeover and convert the kitchen to a small coffee wet bar. Order local doughnuts, have a variety of local coffee beans for all to try, and get employees involved by brewing the coffee in different ways!
This is a fun celebration that will leave employees buzzed for the day and also creates a sense of community and workforce bonding.
Get some insulated branded coffee mugs for employees to leave the event with. Issue a new one each year to get a collection going. You can never have enough travel mugs!
Food Holidays To Mark On Your Calendars
Enjoy a food-based holiday with all of your employees, because everyone loves free food!
National Cheeseburger Day, September 18
Have a local burger joint cater lunch for the office in the name of National Cheeseburger Day! If you're looking to ramp up employee bonding and you have space (and permission), consider a cheeseburger cook-off competition. Fire up the grills, get some jams on, and take a longer lunch to see who makes the best cheeseburger in the office.
National Waffle Day, August 24
Did someone say chicken and waffles? Get the waffles catered from a local restaurant or turn into a DIY-style competition.
Leadership can also take this holiday to serve their employees a sweet breakfast and do all cooking! Have employees bring in their favorite toppings and syrup flavors for an even more interactive experience.
Chocolate Chip Day, May 15
Nothing solves the mid-day work slump like a freshly baked chocolate chip cookie straight from the oven! Have groups of employees bake different varieties in shifts throughout the day if you have a full functioning kitchen. If not, ask employees to bake their faves at home to bring into the office.
World Kindness Day, November 13
Take the day to volunteer with some of your employees. Give back to a local nonprofit organization in your community that shares similar core values with your company. Volunteering gives your employees a way to connect over a new and shared experience.

Less Study, More Abroad: A Week On Tinder In Madrid
After my adventures in Belgium, I'm continuing my study abroad adventure in Spain. I'm living in student housing in the heart of Madrid — the pool on the roof is already proving to be a wonderful place to hang out — and I'm ready to take on this country. The chilly weather in Belgium was no match for bikini season. I waste no time, because I immediately want to see what Spanish dating life has to offer. I open up Tinder and get started.
Wednesday, 3:13 p.m.
I am having too much fun. I must have Liked everyone I saw in the last two-ish hours— they're all just too good looking. I match with Alonso*, and he asks to go out for drinks. We only arrived in Madrid earlier this morning, so I'm a bit tired from navigating through the enormous airport and unpacking. I leave him on read and take a much-needed nap.
Wednesday, 7:55 p.m.
I wake up from my travel-induced snooze to a few messages from Alonso asking what I'm doing in Madrid. I tell him I'm taking classes, and he responds "same." He double texts to tell me he's heading to a bar to watch a soccer (but here, football) game and asks if I would like to join him. I don't have anything else to do, so I tell him I'll be there at 10 o'clock.
Wednesday, 9:55 p.m.
I start walking to the bar, and I'm so grateful it's right around the corner. A few minutes after I arrive, the most beautiful, tan, tall, muscular man walks in. I think I start drooling. Alonso has a thick accent, and I wish my Spanish was better so I could impress him a little bit. I took French — not very useful in Spain. Our conversation is interesting, nonetheless, and he tells me he's pursuing a degree in business administration and finance at a university in Madrid. We talk about the classes we're taking and totally forget that we came to watch football. Before I know it, it's 1:30 a.m. and I have orientation tomorrow. I tell him I'll meet him out somewhere this weekend, and he kisses me goodbye. YUM.
Thursday, 8:20 a.m.
I wake up to a WhatsApp message from Alonso. He tells me he had a great time talking to me and can't wait to see me this weekend. I respond with a winky face and head to orientation. Today is busy, so I don't have much time to talk.
Friday, 11:44 a.m.
I match with Tony*, a finance major and econ minor. After some small talk, he asks how long I'm in Madrid for and if we can get together. I reply with "maybe" — I like to keep them on their toes. Our conversation isn't really going anywhere, and I find myself asking most of the questions. I leave him on read in search of a better match.
A few minutes later, Alonso messages me and asks if I want to meet up. I tell him I'm going out tonight with a few friends if he wants to meet us at the club. He responds with "YES!!!!!" I smile to myself and give him the details.
Saturday, 1:33 a.m.
I am exhausted. The going-out scene here is intense — clubs don't open until midnight, and they stay open and full until 6:00 a.m. I meet Alonso, and we dance at a bar that plays music from a record player. It's a bit touristy, but we go along with it. My group meets up with people from another program at our university, and we bar-hop until we end up at a club. Alonso and I dance until 5:30 a.m., at which point I am way too tired to continue hanging with him. I tell him I'll catch up with him later, go home, and pass out.
Saturday, 2:33 p.m.
I wake up late due to our long night at the club. Thank god for shutters because I slept through breakfast and lunch. Alonso messages me "hope to see you later," and I'm still too tired to answer. I fall back asleep for another hour before I respond and tell him he's a great dancer.
Saturday, 8:12 p.m.
I am mentally preparing myself to go out again tonight when I match with Marcos*. He starts off with a compliment, and I tell him I'm going to Kapital, one of the largest clubs in Europe. I'm feeling bold, so I invite him along. My friends and I pregame for what feels like forever, and we finally go out around midnight. My friend got us a table, and when we walk inside my jaw drops because this place is so humongous.
Sunday, 12:38 a.m.
This club isn't just huge. It's loud. And crowded. We get to our table, and they put pink wristbands on each of us. We take numerous shots of tequila. My professional opinion is that it tastes better in Spain but still, overall, not great. Marcos messages me that he's on the fifth floor. I walk upstairs, where it's a bit quieter, to meet him. We talk about his degree in political science and my time in Madrid. Then we go to the bottom floor to get closer to the DJ and stage and start dancing. A bit later, Marcos and I go to find my friends. The club is so big that we get lost and can't find our table, but we do find a karaoke room, belt out a few songs, and continue our search. Alonso messages me and asks me about my plans, but I ignore him — I'm fixated on Marcos and our journey to my crew. By the time we make it back, only a few people from my group are still there, so Marcos and I go back to my residence.
Sunday, 4:22 a.m.
By the time we get back, it's late. I go to unlock the sliding glass door into my building with my keycard, but the doorman doesn't let us in. He claims it's too late for visitors. Ugh! We walk outside to devise a plan to get inside. We wait for the doorman to go on a smoke break and then run inside. After sprinting upstairs, our adrenaline is high. Marcos puts on a reggaeton playlist. We don't go to sleep until around 7 a.m. At around 9:30 a.m., Marcos heads out to catch the metro home and kisses me goodbye. The night was so good that I've decided I'm going to move to Spain at some point in my life.
Sunday, 3:33 p.m.
I wake up, swear off tequila, and sleep the rest of the day.
Monday, 9:52 a.m.
I get messages from Alonso and Marcos, but I'm more interested in my new match, James*. He's a bit older and looks like he has refined taste. We talk for a bit about his work at the stock market in Madrid and how finance can be so interesting. He asks to get drinks later tonight and as long as it's not tequila, I'm down. He also asks for my Insta handle, and I wait for his follow request.
Monday, 3:56 p.m.
I accept James' request and cringe immediately. He quotes Machiavelli in his bio. Automatic red flag. Against my better judgment, I call him out for it, and he responds, "yes why?" Just clueless. I get out while I still can.
Tuesday, 7:22 p.m.
I have become extremely bored since ghosting Alonso and Marcos. Time for my next indulgence. I match with Tobias*, and we talk for a little bit. I'm not really interested in the conversation, but I want company. I invite him over to watch a movie, and he responds with "leaving now!" We get into my room, and he puts on "Ferris Bueller's Day Off." A classic man. I'm intrigued. In the middle of the movie, he leans over and grabs my hand and starts doing that cute thumb thing. The rest is history.
Spain is a beautiful country with beautiful boys everywhere you look. In just the beginning of my time there, I've made great memories and danced until the sun came up. And true to my word, following my adventure with Marcos, I put Spain on my "places to live" list. I'm excited for the rest of my trip and ¡No quiero marcharme nunca! (translation: I don't want to leave!). My Spanish is improving already.
*Names have been changed to protect innocent daters everywhere.

Jordanheads are probably well aware by now that the Jordan Spike 40 is the latest sneaker with Spike Lee's name associated with it. However, what they may not know yet is the fact that Tinker Hatfield did not design the sneaker, but a sketch from Tinker's vault did serve as the inspiration and source material for the Spike 40. Along with borrowing features from the Air Jordan 5 from the '90s, the Spike 40 is basically a combination of elements from Tinker's lost sketches. After hitting the shelves in several different iterations, an even more unique and vibrant colorway of the Jordan Spike 40 has been unveiled.
Considering that it has become somewhat essential and necessary for Spike Lee-related kicks to make their debut in a New York Knicks-inspired colorway, it is no wonder the Spike 40 did the same. After all, back in 1990 Spike Lee had signed a bogus contract with the New York Knicks. Quite recently, Nike even decided to offer the Jordan Spike 40 on their customization platform, NIKEiD. Now, Jordan Brand seems prepared to drop one last new colorway of the Jordan Spike 40 before 2015 comes to an end.
This latest rendition of the Jordan Spike 40 apparently draws inspiration from Mars Blackmon, who is a character from She's Gotta Have It that Spike Lee had directed back in 1986. A nice, bright Blue hue covers the smooth woven upper of the sneaker. The eyelets, heel portion and the tongue of this sneaker feature textured Black overlays. Last but not least, this sneaker is also equipped with a Black and White midsole, which adds a touch of contrast. However, the element that stands out the more and makes this bold colorway stand out even more is Blue, Orange, and Purple hues that make the outsole appear vibrant. The Jordan release date of this Jordan Spike 40 colorway has already taken place at the brand's select accounts, where it is retailing at a price of $180.

The temperatures are dropping and frosts are becoming a nightly occurrence, we hope you've been thinking about how to keep your furry family members safe and sound this winter. I know I have! I've already been breaking out Mylo and Lily's winter jackets. Are you savvy to these winter pet dangers?
Early darkness
With daylight savings time in full effect, you're probably walking your dog either in the twilight or in the dark. Ensure that motorists, cyclists and other pedestrians can see your dog by using a leash and collar combo with reflective properties or built-in lights. There are a wide variety of options available! Reflective fabrics on their (and your) coats are also a great idea.
It's not just how high, or in this case low, the mercury rises on your thermometer when you're thinking about frostbite there's the wind and your pet's physical contact with ice and snow. When you're heading back into the house after a wintry outdoor adventure make sure you get all of the ice and snow off your pet. You'll want to check your pet's paws, ears and tails for frostbite, which usually presents as cold, hard, pale or grey skin that stays cold to the touch after being indoors for a while. If you suspect frostbite cover your pet with a dry towel or non-electric blanket and contact your veterinarian.
Caused by the cold, just like frostbite, hypothermia is an issue when temperatures dip and your pet will have to work harder to keep their core body temperature within its normal range which can have negative effects the colder it gets. Keeping them toasty with a sweater or jacket when outdoors is one way you can help prevent it. You'll also want to make sure they get some extra calories if they spend a lot of time outside.
Some people think that antifreeze poisoning is no longer an issue since manufacturers started adding a bitterant to their products in 2012, but the Humane Society of the United States would say otherwise. Small amounts of antifreeze are enough to poison dogs and cats. In fact, it is one of the most common forms of poisoning in dogs. Make sure all spills are cleaned up immediately and thoroughly. You'll want to contact your vet immediately if you think your pet has ingested any antifreeze as the longer you wait the more damage will be done.
Salt and de-icers
Whether you have a dog or a cat, most animals enjoy playing out in the snow. If you live in an area where you get heavy snowfalls one danger to be aware of is salt and other de-icers. They can irritate your pet's skin and paw pads as well as being toxic if ingested. Many pet owners don't realize just how toxic salt can be for their pets, click the link to find out more.
Frozen bodies of water
In winter ponds, lakes and even rivers can ice over appearing to be solid ground to your pets. There is the danger that they could walk across, break through the ice and suffer from hypothermia or even die before they could be rescued. Remember to leave ice rescues to the trained professionals, if it goes wrong two will be in need of rescue instead of one.
Leash walking
If you need to talk your dog out on a walk in poor weather, you should make sure to take them out on a leash. Winter storm conditions make it easier for your dog to get lost, and American Humane says that more dogs are lost during the winter than any other season. Let's make sure yours isn't one of them!

text: The first time you use your senz°, in heavy weather, it will take some getting used to. When you hold the senz° loosely in one hand, (check out our tips & tricks page), it will find the right position in the wind itself. Initially, you may want to grab your senz° firmly with two hands and hold it against the wind. This is not necessary! As the senz° is aerodynamic, it doesn't need any help! Just think of it as a bird that lets its wings flow through the wind automatically, following the different wind directions.

MEMPHIS, Tenn. —Just after 3 a.m. Saturday morning a 12-year-old boy's life was taken in a shooting at the 2400 block of Dana Drive.
Police said Sunday night they found the suspect. Caterrious Williams is charged with aggravated assault, aggravated child abuse and first-degree murder in perpetration of aggravated child abuse.
The family says they've been in a daze and they haven't slept a wink since finding 12-year-old Devin Johnson in his room with a gunshot wound to the head.
"I don't want to bury my baby, he was the only son I had," said Cecilia Berry Johnson's mother.
Berry says right now nothing makes sense. One minute she felt at peace knowing her son was sleeping in the other room of their home, the next moment she says she was cradling him—begging him to hold on.
"I told him please don't go to sleep this is mama I was outside the whole time the ambulance was working on him but they couldn't revive him," said Berry.
For the family, none of it adds up—as of right now they believe an intruder came in through a side window, shot Johnson in the head—and left.
Without taking anything or waking anyone else in the house.
"Why? It's a lot of kids in here you target one child," said Berry. "The person who did this doesn't have a heart. They don't have a spine."
It's hard to press on because they say Devin didn't deserve to die but through reminiscing, the family is able to fight through the pain until they find closure.
"My baby didn't do nothing to anyone, he was a good child. He loved to dance always had a smile on his face," said Berry.
