Wait Where Did He Get A ComputerBy Rick Griffin on November 3rd, 2008

This comic is also a birthday present for Karishad! If you knew him it would be apparent
Yay, first post, and
lol, tv antenna. But what happened too the zoo?
Their still at the zoo, the new guy is making lame jokes and driving the other foxes crazy. Thats a snow fox (snowy. get it?).
lee, if you read the thing right below the strip (you know, the thing that says that this comic is a present) you'll know that the zoo arc will return soon
Still very funny.
Just how often do we visit our friends at the Zoo?
That's Kari, alright.
Yup, that's Karishad… seen some of the commissions he's had done on FA.
… specially the java plug-in at the end, lol.
Funny way to tie him into Housepets – least he's locked up where he'll (hopefully) do the least harm!
*pause* Naaaah… XD
hehe… we were just having a discussion about if foxes were canines or felines…
itwas a tricky one for even me to figure out but foxes are one of the few canines i like…
foxes are actually neither…. they have their own family called vulpes.
actually, foxes are of the genus Vulpes. They are still a part of the family Canidae.
their scintific name is Vulpes vulpes….
yeah…That's genus Vulpes, species Vulpes;
the family is still Canidae
Foxes are canines – look it up just about anywhere, and it'll say so. They do have numerous feline traits, but they're about as related to most cats as wolves and domestic dogs are. Vulpes is only the genus, and Vulpes vulpes only refers to the red fox, probably the most common – they're either native or been introduced to just about every continent, so the only place you won't find them is pretty much Antartica. They're not the only species tho – there are about 27 species of foxes total, but only 12 of which are part of the vulpes genus – "true foxes."
Not going to write a whole article on it here (altho I'm probably too late to avoid that, lol), but you can find plenty more on Wikipedia, or Encarta Online, assuming Microsoft hasn't locked everything for MSN-members only by now.
It's just like him!
hehe too funny!
"…is ALSO a birthday present…"
It's part of the zoo arc too. c:
That's peanut there talking to people in the fox pen, or something. owo
where DID he get that computer? o_o
Bahaha, what a silly fox. X3
I love the Java joke. X3
I don't get the Java joke. Anyone care to enlighten me?"
Thats a coffee machine on top of the computer, and he's trying to plug it into the computer.
No no no… the second keyword is Java too, a famous plug in catalyst software for PC's.
I was assuming that everyone here knew about the software Java because, as you said, it's famous.
Pannel 3 seems iffy…
I can only imagine the scenario of panel 3…
New guy is annoying all the other foxes, one decides to "dissuade" him/make fun of him or something by mooning him, and he only turns it around by grabbing his tail and asking someone else to hold it.
That's all I can think up that seems logical, other then him sneaking up on the fox and grabbing the tail, which is kinda unlikely because, for me, THAT is the kind of person I'd keep my eye on ALL the time.
Funny . . . Only problem is I know people like that . . .
rofl… Java plug-in.. ahahahahahahaha…. thats a riot… Now the question really IS … "wait.. Where did he get a computer?!" … Maybe he snuck out and stole it or something.. or maybe he bought it over the zoonet. lol or maybe he bribed someone some how to buy him one?.. i just wonder what kinda bribe would it have been?… lol
Panel 3…I've done that to people. Just randomly grab something that belongs to someone else, hand it off, and walk away like nothing happened.
Finally we get to the fox's, I felt so alone without them… but Grape's a great substitute!
Well, theres Firefox, but wheres Thunderbird?
Also there's USB coffee makers out there ya know xD
That perfectly fits Kari alright. ^.^
With Kari, that thing coulda come from anywhere.
oh my god. that's so epic with kari =3 ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
The 3rd panel makes me murr…. >.> *cough*
It's clearly a USB connection using a liquid-induction adapter. Drizzle lightly over CPU at 350 F for 20 seconds, muck out with garden rake, allow to cool for two minutes. Serves one just right.
Wait what? Where did the mucking out come into it?
wow… this guy doesn't know how to make a decent joke… I had to read it two-three times to get what he was trying to do… still funny tho! ^^
LOL! i was TOTALLY confused too i mean i was like "? O.o i thought we were at the Zoo." and then i saw the comments and then i understood why there was like a fence between the fox and Peanut! i was like LOL i got it now! anyway this is the funniest comic i've EVER read next to VGcats and Girls with Slingshots lol. Great drawings by the by
Oh man…
Hehe, looking at it I thought pannels three and four were meant to be linked [like he was asking for someone to hold the tail so he could insert the Java plugin XD]
ah… ok, he must be REALLY sneaky then =P
so… that means that foxes can mate with and bare the children of both cat's and dogs? because dogs and wolves can mate and bare puppies…. thus if foxes have as much in common with cats as wolves have with dogs…. something is wrong with your artical
No – i said they have some traits, but their genus is NOT feline. Like cats, they can climb, and their eyes function in a very similar manner, among other things. But these are not because they are related to felines.
However, a fox has rather poor vision, like many canines (with some exceptions), and relies primarily on it's hearing and smell, which is VERY acute. Typically, a fox can NOT breed with a cat (I'm sure somewhere, somehow, there will someday be an exception to this, just because, if I make it an absolute) – they CAN, in theory, breed with other canines, but it's highly unlikely one would ever do so.
Dogs and wolves, on the other hand, can mate because they are VERY closely related – every single domesticated dog in the world today can trace its ancestry back to wolves and other wild canines, because they were captured and domesticated by humans. Those "dogs" lived very different lives than their feral cousins, and evolution & selective breeding have added up to create a different species in the same genus. They're only separated by a few thousand years of evolution at best – a drop in the bucket as far as nature cares. Hence, dogs and wolves can breed.
This is my last response to this, as I don't think Rick wants major debates going in these posts. Should probably be taken to the forums, or if you still have questions, hit up Wikipedia or some other encyclopedias – you'll get a few answers there, too.

"Whatever I'm going through, I can say, they are more understanding right now. They understand that it is normal to fall in love with someone and feel the pain sometimes Feeling the pain is part of loving someone," Sarah Geronimo said in an interview with ANC this morning, Jan. 5, 2014 (Philippine time).
Known for her strict attitude when it comes to her daughters' romantic lives especially Sarah, some observers say Mommy Divine is now giving space to Sarah and her rumored boyfriend Matteo Guidicelli. Reports said she is favoring Matteo for her daughter, but when interviewed by the media several weeks ago, the pop princess immediately denied the allegation.
Their romance started when they went to the U.S. for a series of shows. At the time, reports said Matteo was in a relationship with Jessy Mendiola, after a few days in the U.S., he allegedly called the Maria Mercedes star and told her that he is not yet ready for a relationship.
Right now, despite the circulation of confirmed reports, photos and videos online, Sarah and Matteo are still keeping their silence every time they are cornered by the media and talk about their rumored relationship.

Corporate bond
A corporate bond is an interest bearing or discounted debt security issued by a corporation. Corporate bonds are essentially loans by the investor to the issuing company in return for interest payments. They are fixed income securities.
Expanded Definition
Corporate bonds are classifed by their bond rating and their maturity. Bond ratings are assigned by bond rating agencies including firms such as Standard and Poor's, Moody's, and Fitch. Several rating systems are used, but the most common one ranges from AAA for the safest to C- for the least secure. Investment grade bonds are rated from AAA to BBB-. BB+ and below bonds are considered junk bonds.
Bond maturity is the date on which a bond expires. A bond is a contract to pay interest at a specified rate, i.e. the coupon, and on specified dates until the maturity date. At maturity, the issuer agrees to refund the face value of the bond.
Bond are classified by maturity as short, usually under about two years, and long, usually over about 15 years. In between are intermediate bonds. Prices of short bonds respond quickly to changes in interest rates and especially actions by the Federal Reserve Board. Long bonds tend to respond more slowly. However, the yield curve of US Treasury bonds is the reference point.
Changes in interest rates cause the market value of bonds to change. Rises in interest rates cause bond prices to fall so the bond, which pays a fixed amount of interest, pays market interest rates to the buyer. Conversely, falling interest rates can cause the market value of a bond to increase, making possible a sale for capital gains.
Bond yield changes with market conditions and can be different from the coupon yield when the market price of the bond is other than the face value.
Zero coupon bonds are bonds paying no interest. They are sold at a deep discount and then pay face value at maturity.
Bonds are bought and sold by bond traders or by the bond desk of your broker. Although some bonds are listed on major exchanges, most are traded over the counter. Most individual investors find it necessary to hold bonds to maturity as the resale market is limited. Bonds can be sold but usually at the price offered by the bond desk of your broker. Bid ask spreads are said to be wide.
Asset backed securities or trust preferred issues are a new class of bonds. They are listed and traded on major stock exchanges as preferred stocks. Each issue is backed by a single corporate bond. Hence, these are in effect corporate bonds traded on major stock exchanges and available at discount broker commissions.
Many bonds are callable. The issuer may call the bond at a specified price on or after a specified date. The details are listed in the prospectus for the issue. QuantumOnline [1] does an excellent job of summarizing call provisions. They also provide links to the original prospectus for the issue. (But the bond ratings shown may not be up to date.)
Those considering purchase of a bond should reseach call provisions. Bond yields are often supported by the call price. Paying a premium over the call price can result in having the bond called out from under you at a loss. Hence, bonds near or after their call date often have their market value held down by the call price. That can cause them to show up in bond listings as remarkably high yielding bonds. Be especially careful of bonds paying above market yields.

Foxgloves are ideal in cottage gardens where they can self-seed all over the place, popping up where least expected and giving surprising new combinations, though they are also easily moved in spring if you want to rearrange them. This white is usually regarded as a biennial (growing in one season, then flowering and dying in the next), but sometimes keeps going for longer as a short-lived perennial. Damp soil in part shade is best.

It's a little known fact that growing cotton uses 22.5% of all the insecticides used on the entire planet. That means that growing enough cotton for one t-shirt requires 257 gallons of water. That's just the beginning, because the following process of bleaching and then dyeing the resulting fabric creates toxins that flow into our water sources. Many companies use rayon which is a huge contributor to the rapid depletion of the world's forests. Petroleum-based products are detrimental to the environment on many levels. There are many factors that are worth taking a look at when it comes to finding eco-friendly textiles.
Organic cotton is a lot more eco-friendly than the traditional cotton varieties. Organic cotton t-shirts are made without the use of pesticides, herbicides, or insecticides during the growing cycle. This is becoming a more popular method than ever, with consumers demanding that t-shirts and other clothing be made in a more green process.
Usually manufacturers using this plant to make textiles follow up the process by using natural dyes to further reduce the amount of chemicals dumped into our ecosystem.
There are now hundreds of place to buy hemp t-shirts, organic cotton t-shirts, gay t-shirts, and even bamboo tees. These choices will make you a more conscious consumer, and will help make the planet a healthier place to live.

On the "Deadliest Catch", the Cornelia Marie is back. She is getting ready to head out on the Bering Sea to fish for crab!
It's been around four years since that blue boat went out on the Bering Sea. Faithful fans are in for a treat in this week's episode of the "Deadliest Catch." Josh Harris not only owns the boat, he is the skipper in training. Helping to train him is long time family friend, Captain Casey McManus. He said that he has a fine line to walk because Josh is the owner and skipper. He went on to say that his dad made a promise to Phil Harris to take care of the boys and the best way he knows how to help the boys is to teach them how to successfully run the boat.
Phil Harris passed away in 2010. He had a massive stroke, which landed him in the hospital. A pulmonary embolism claimed his life shortly afterwards. Even though Josh and Jake tried to keep the boat running, they could not. Josh worked on the Time Bandit with Captain John and Captain Andy Hillstrand. Jake went to work briefly on the Northwestern for Sig Hansen, but he had several problems, which prevented him from working to his full potential. He was addicted to prescription drugs and alcohol. He left the Northwestern to seek help.
Before Josh can take the Cornelia Marie out on the water, he has to get the gear ready. The four years of being idle took its toll on the pots. All the netting has holes that need mending, and the lines have rotted and weakened.
John and Andy Hillstrand pay Josh a visit as he's fixing the pots. They bring Josh a shirt with a special message on the back. On the front it says, "I'm the S.H.I.T." Then, on the back, it reads,
Welcome Back Cornelia Marie and Josh Harris. No word on whether Jake Harris is coming back, but it's probably only a matter of time.
Watch the "Deadliest Catch" on the Discovery Channel, Tuesdays at 8 p.m. central.

Can we talk about Tevin Campbell for a minute? That's exactly what we did when we caught up with the R&B crooner at the 2014 Essence Music Festival. Although this was Campbell's first time at the festival, he is no stranger to winning people over with that soothing voice that will have you going 'round and round'.
The same voice that Campbell had as a boy has only grown now that he is 37 year old man. Fans of the seductive voice, got a chance to hear it again at the Superdome during his first Essence Festival performance. Campbell plans to share this voice with the world again and is using this weekend as a chance to reconnect with his fans. Campbell said he hoped to excite old fans and cultivate new ones who may not be familiar with his many hits.
As he came out to start the show in the packed out Superlounge he admitted, "everyone has that one song that's 'their' song and they want to hear it, so we plan to accommodate them, but I might throw in some new stuff too."
After a great deal of success at a young age in music and being backed by artist such as 'The Purple One' Prince - who penned one of Campbell's first major hits "Round and Round", Campbell abruptly dropped off of the music scene. Campbell admitted that after two hit albums - "T.E.V.I.N" and "I'm Ready" - he spent time away examining his life and where it was going.
Although Campbell has been gone for a minute, it could not be noticed, his fans have obviously not minded patiently waiting for his return. The Essence Superlounge where Campbell performed was packed to a point of where it was standing-room only- with a solid audience of people packed in from the very back of the lounge all the way up to the front of the stage. The lines outside the show were wrapped around the Superdome corridors.
After performing, we got to speak with Campbell about the show. He let it be known that he was definitely excited about the turn out and the show. "I did all the classics, none of the new material as we had planned. They wanted to hear what they wanted to hear," he confessed. He let the crowd take command of the show and was 'ready' to give them anything they wanted.
When asked about the state of music today in comparison to when he first came out, Campbell quickly replied that "R&B music is in major need of a resurrection". He is taken heed to the emergency. He is back and ready to make real R&B music. Campbell let it be known that he is currently working on projects with powerhouse producer Teddy Riley and R&B songstress Faith Evans. When asked about any possible duets he admitted the admiration for new artist such as Beyonce, Rihanna, Drake, and Alicia Keys. He said that he'd definitely be interested in doing work with any of these artists because "there is always a place for great music."
In being that he has plans to release new music by the end of the year with a full album next year, his main reason for the Essence Festival appearance is to generate some buzz about his music. That's why he said he is grateful for the opportunity to play at Essence. "It's kind of a big deal. There will be a lot of people looking and listening." He went on to explain that he feels like "a lot of good things can happen as a result of this festival" and to confess that he feels that "when it comes to God and his blessings all [he] can do is be prepared."

This £250 carry-on sized suitcase can be wheeled around like any ordinary suitcase but kick down the built in scooter and leave other travelers in your dust arriving at the gate of your connecting flight early. That was the vision of the makers of the Micro-Luggage Scooter.
All it's missing is a coffee cup holder.
BUN Business Lesson
To be honest I can't believe it's taken this long to create this logical mashup.
Be the first to mashup two things (suitcase and a scooter) and you get a lot of attention not to mention sales. You don't even need to go into business or create the prototype you can license ('rent') your idea to a large corporation for a small percent of the profits.

BALL GROUND, Ga. - After two rounds of play the semifinals are set at the Callaway Collegiate Match Play Championship at Hawks Ridge Golf Club in Ball Ground, Georgia.
Third-seeded Georgia Tech beat Washington State in the first-round, five holes to two, after they won two matches, lost two matches and halved the other. Senior Nick Ellis and junior Branden Dalton both won 1-up.

On Friday, the day their rookie minicamp began, the Saints announced that they signed three of the six players they acquired in the draft: strong safety Vinnie Sunseri, outside linebacker Ronald Powell and tackle Tavon Rooks.
All three players signed four-year contracts.
Sunseri and Powell were selected in the fifth round with the 167th and 169th picks, respectively, while Rooks was the Saints' sixth-round pick at No. 202.
Powell was selected with the pick the Saints obtained from the Philadelphia Eagles in exchange for running back Darren Sproles.
The quick signing of the three rookies on Friday continues a trend that began when the new collective bargaining agreement was hammered out in 2011 — which included a slotted wage scale for draft picks,
The Saints' remaining undrafted draft picks are wide receiver Brandin Cooks (first round), cornerback Stanley Jean-Baptiste (second round) and inside linebacker Khairi Fortt (fourth round).
All six draftees are taking part in the team's three-day rookie minicamp that began Friday.
They were joined by the free agents the Saints signed after the completion of the draft last Saturday night, assorted first-year players and other newcomers to the team as well, and a number of players who were invited to participate in the minicamp on a tryout basis.

MARTINS FERRY - Scott Roth has been attending the Ohio State Wrestling Championship for many years as a fan, competitor and now as a coach.
The last few seasons he's grown more and more upset and agitated about the performances of area wrestlers overall.
"The valley, in general, isn't placing many guys at the state tournament, numbers are down and all in all, it's a little rough for our area's schools right now," Roth said. "I spend a lot of time thinking about this sport and trying to enhance it here locally."

THE VERTEX Wrestling Club is open in Martins Ferry. Front row, from left, are Volunteer coach Mike Rose, Shane Rosenberger (Martins Ferry), Mason Walton (Martins Ferry) Kyler Oliver (Martins Ferry), Terrin Frazier (Bridgeport), James Voltz (Martins Ferry) and Vertex co-founder/coach Clay Tucker. Second row, from left, are C.J. Williams (Martins Ferry), Noah Kovalski (Martins Ferry), Kaiden Oliver (Martins Ferry), Rich McFarland (Martins Ferry), Matt McFarland (Belmont), Damon Outward (Martins Ferry) and Vertex co-founder/coach Scott Roth. Not pictured were Joseph Bonfini (Bellaire), Noah Duck (Martins Ferry), Johnny McFarland (Martins Ferry), Mike Wear (Martins Ferry), Ben Jackson (Martins Ferry), Dennis Russell (Martins Ferry) and James Wise (Martins Ferry).
Rather than sitting around watching Ohio Valley wrestling take its lumps on the state's biggest stage, Roth is going to work.
The current Martins Ferry Purple Riders' head coach, who was an undefeated state champion in 2000 and wrestled for four years at Cornell, has joined forces with another former Purple Rider state champion and Ohio University product Clay Tucker.
"Smitty (Michael Smith) has his club up in Steubenville, and I was taking a few guys up there, but between just driving up there and gas, it was tough," Roth said. "So, I was thinking that there's no place down here like this, so I thought, who better to start it than myself?"
Roth and Tucker are currently operating the Vertex Wrestling Club in Martins Ferry, which is open to wrestlers from all over the Ohio Valley on Monday, Wednesday and Thursday from 6-7:30 p.m..
"There are thousands of clubs all over the country," Roth said. "It's a good way to get a grass roots program started. There are these sorts of clubs all over Columbus, Cleveland and kids are getting better instruction when they're younger and it's translating all the way up to high school."
The Vertex Wrestling Club focuses on freestyle wrestling, but Roth points out quickly that "wrestling is wrestling."
Thus far, the club has been attracting upwards of 20 wrestlers total.
Somewhat surprisingly to Roth, the majority of those are young kids.
"When I first got this idea in my mind, it was aimed at high school," Roth said. "It's not turned out that way so far. It's a lot of guys who aren't even in junior high, but it's been fun because it's away from the daily grind of high school wrestling. Plus, you can see the drastic improvements in their techniques because they're so fresh."
With the positive response, Roth isn't about to limit what age groups he and Tucker will work with, but Roth did acknowledge that it could get to the point where there are two sessions an evening.
"Eventually, I'd like to see it to the point where we can have an intense junior high and high school aged workout," Roth said.
"We've been getting kids just through word of mouth, and it's been spreading really well."
Roth and Tucker have been kicking around ideas about the future of the club when actual wrestling season heats back up in November.
"We're trying to figure out a way to do it all year for the younger guys or at least have club during the actual wrestling season," Roth said. "We've got some things in the work, but it's all still in an evolution mode and nothing is really set in stone. Hopefully, it takes off and it can be great for everyone."
Along with Roth and Tucker, former Purple Rider standout Mike Rose is also aiding the cause as one of the club's instructors.

College Hockey:Gordic's hat trick propels Michigan Tech to upset of Denver
HOUGHTON, Mich. — The Michigan Tech Huskies defended their undefeated home streak, defeating No. 2 Denver University in a 7-2 win. Milos Gordic tallied a hat trick for the Huskies in his 2011 season debut.
"Off the bat, I just wanted to get comfortable and throw some hits early, get in the corners, and a couple shifts into it, I felt pretty good, and it went from there," said Gordic following his hat trick debut.
Five other Huskies also made the score sheet, as they remained undefeated at home with a 5-0-0 record.
The Pioneers arrived in Houghton fresh off a sweep of Minnesota State, and undefeated in WCHA play this season.
"I think you saw a great example of a team that was prepared to play and compete very hard and execute and perform, versus a team who was thinking how things went last Saturday night," said Pioneers coach George Gwozdecky of his team's mental state going into tonight's game.
A slow start for the Pioneer allowed the Huskies to pull ahead quickly in the first.
Huskies forward Tanner Kero opened the scoring at 1:53 into the first period, netting his third of the season after linemate Alex MacLeod batted the puck off the boards behind the net and it landed in Adam Murray's crease, where Kero was positioned to slam it into the back of the net.
The Pioneers rallied with a goal of their own at 4:23 when Pioneers defender Joey LaLeggia released a rocket from the point that soared over Josh Robinson's shoulder.
A power-play goal from Gordic at 10:06 set the Huskies ahead when Ryan Furne took the initial shot and Gordic was right alongside his teammate to pick up the rebound and net his first of the season. Furne crashed the net and lost his footing and slammed right into Murray, who left the game from the injury.
Freshman Juho Olkinuora stepped up to take Murray's place for what was his first action of his Pioneers career.
Ryan Furne scored a goal of his own at 10:22 to close out the first period with the Huskies ahead 3-1.
The Pioneers had close calls in the second period, but were unable to capitalize on the opportunities to catch up.
"It's a lot easier to play with a lead than it is to catch up," said Gwozdecky. "Tonight is not a good night for some of our sticks to go quiet."
The Huskies increased their lead at 3:17 in the second after Gordic tipped in Dan Sova's shot from the point.
The Pioneers thought they had gotten back into the game with a goal, but the review found the puck had gone in off a skate. The third period brought more bad luck for the Pioneers.
At 7:06 into the period, the Pioneers attempted to regroup with a timeout. Taking the ice again, they pulled their goaltender in hopes that the six-on-five advantage would give the offense the kick-start it needed.
The Huskies did not give them the opportunity, as Gordic forced a turnover, leading to a breakaway that gave him his third goal of the game at 3:59. The Pioneers left their net empty, and captain Brett Olson netted two more goals before the netminder came back in.
"After the first goal, I'm thinking OK, you know what, we may not be able to come back in this game, but it's a good opportunity to try to work on our six-on-five situations," said Gwozdecky of his decision to keep the empty net after the first goal. "But Tech didn't really give us a chance to."
A final goal from the Pioneers with less than two minutes remaining in the game set the score at a 7-2 final.
"I thought we matched up well against them," said Huskies coach Mel Pearson, "We got off to a good start, and that's important. It's our home ice; we have to set the tone on how we're going to play. My concern now is to make sure you play the same way from start through the end. Regardless of what the score is, regardless of what's going, you have to keep maintaining that pace of play and standard of play."
Robinson left the ice with 38 saves. Murray made three before being injured, and Olkinuora made 18 in his career debut.
The two teams return for more WCHA action tomorrow night at 7:07 p.m.

About Danny Gray
Custom Motorcycle Legend
For 35 years, Danny Gray has been building world-class seats for the top-name motorcycle builders. As high-end custom bikes grew in popularity, demand for Danny Gray's combination of comfort, style and durability soared.
The seats are handcrafted in California. Danny, who has been going to the Sturgis Motorcycle rally for decades, fell in love with Deadwood. The historic city is just 15 miles from Sturgis, and it's nestled among the pine trees of the Black Hills.He decided to make Deadwood his home in 1999.
The History of the Deadwood Roadhouse
The Deadwood Roadhouse, at 67 Sherman Street, dates back as far as 1892, when the predecessor of Consolidated Power & Light Co. operated a power plant and electric utility offices there. Much of the building was constructed in 1928, and for most of Deadwood's history it served as the power company's offices.
During Deadwood's gambling heyday, the Deadwood Roadhouse building became a casino called the Windflower. In 1990, the Windflower owner was gunned down right inside the cashier's cage during a robbery gone wrong. The owner died, and his killer went to prison.You can still see the holes in the vault door where the pellets from the 20-gauge shotgun blast.
A few years ago, Danny Gray bought the building and began working on his dream of creating a place where he and his friends could hang out during the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally and at other times of the year.
Danny also loves historic old buildings. He restored one back in California. And when he found the Deadwood Roadhouse building, he rolled up his sleeves and went to work. He knocked out walls, opened up the spaces and built a unique indoor playground for guests who come to enjoy Deadwood and the Black Hills.

Experiencing the Tokyo subway, particularly during rush hour, is an exercise in contradictions: there is light and darkness, movement and stasis, rushing and waiting, arrival and departure, solitude and the masses, entering and exiting – all at the same time, creating an atmosphere that combines reality with the surreal. This book explores the Tokyo subway in gritty black and white images taken on film with a rangefinder.
This book has been months in the making, and I am so pleased to have it in publishable form at long last.
The book will be published in a limited print run of 250 copies. Please email me your mailing address at firstname.lastname@example.com after purchasing your copy of the book and I will send you a signed label to insert in the book.
Thank you and enjoy!
Currently living in Bordeaux, France, I am working on several vineyard and healthy cooking photography and writing projects. I work both in 35mm digital and in medium format positive and BW film. I have had the opportunity to exhibit in Paris, Tokyo and most recently Moscow. Primarily self-taught, I briefly interned with National Geographic photographer Steve McCurry (photographer of the famous NG Magazine Afghan Girl cover shot). I have assisted photographers in Paris and Washington, DC and worked informally with several photography professionals over the years. I am excited about my published journals with images of Paris and Moscow that can be previewed here at my Blurb Bookstore! Thank you for enjoying and supporting my creative endeavors!

Album Summary
Notes & Reviews:
Continuing his exploration of Handel operas, maestro René Jacobs now turns his attention to Agrippina - the first great operatic success of the composer's Italian period. Composed in 1709, Agrippina is an opera seria in three acts on a libretto by Cardinal Vincenzo Grimani. The opera tells the story of Agrippina, the mother of Nero, as she plots the downfall of the Roman Emperor Claudius and the installation of her son as emperor. Grimani's libretto, considered one of the best that Handel set, is full of topical political allusions. Some believe that it reflects the rivalry between Grimani and Pope Clement XI. From its opening night, the work was given a then-unprecedented run of 27 consecutive performances and received much critical acclaim. Observers were full of praise for the quality of the music - much of which, in keeping with the contemporary custom, had been borrowed and adapted from other works, including some from other composers. Jacobs performs the work in its original version.
"The singers are fully inside their roles and the ensemble conveys an invigorating sense of stylistic unity...The recitatives crackle and the Akademie für Alte Musik Berlin provides a wonderfully lithe musical foundation. Handel operas are a long haul on CD, but this one really comes alive." -The Independent
The Irish Times
The singers are engaging, with Bejun Mehta particularly impressive as Ottone. The overall result is exciting, and will be appealing to those who like their Handel in Technicolour
Gramophone Magazine
Jacobs directs a larger-than-life performance of crackling theatrical energy... The recitatives make the characters' conspiracies, confrontations and lusts more vividly immediate, abetted by facetious commentaries from the varied continuo group. Purists may throw up their hands, but dull it ain't... This is Agrippina's opera; and Pendatchanska remains a commanding, neurotic presence throughout.
New York Times
Surges with energy, with a stellar cast
The Times
Pendatchanska's impassioned acrobatics are just one striking feature of this rollicking Baroque feast... the comedy keeps coming through, partly in the puncturing gestures of Jacobs's instrumental forces, the brilliant Akademie fnr alte Musik Berlin. The play of voices in Jacobs's cast creates its own comedy... Now can we please see the entire production? It's just made for its own DVD.
International Record Review
You can hear its theatrical provenance (although studio recorded) in the crackle and repartee of a cast which clearly works as an ensemble... I'm glad to have heard [Pendatchanska] but I can imagine purists wincing occasionally. The set's most complete success is Bejun Mehta's Ottone, a secondary character which the countertenor transforms into the hero of the performance.
BBC Music Magazine
Jacobs's performance is electric. The Akademie fnr Alte Musik Berlin matches the singers in virtuosity. The casting is luxurious... Deadly and glamorous, Alexandrina Pendatchanska's Agrippina is indefatigable
Classic FM Magazine
Jacobs's conducting is full of pep.
The Guardian
The performance is excellent: the recitatives and arias are deftly conducted, flowing seamlessly together... Bejun Mehta makes for a staggering Ottone, and Alexandrina Pendatchanska, who should stick to Handel rather than Mozart, is gloriously over the top in the title role.
Sunday Times
The Flemish conductor's theatricality can't be gainsaid, but purists may demur at the Callas-like chest notes of Alexandrina Pendachanska's Agrippina. The Bulgarian soprano (above) is both virago and subtle schemer, however, a vivid presence. She is outclassed, vocally, by Bejun Mehta's patrician Ottone - he has some of Handel's most ravishing arias - and Marcos Fink's splendidly blustering Emperor Claudius.

OBJECTIVE: Microparticles are small, membrane-coated vesicles that can serve as novel signaling structures between cells. The aim of the present study was to analyze the profile of microparticles in the blood of patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc; scleroderma) and healthy controls. METHODS: The study population consisted of 37 patients with SSc and 15 healthy subjects of comparable sex and age. Microparticles were isolated from plasma by high-speed differential centrifugation. Microparticles were stained with monoclonal antibodies against cell type-specific markers and were quantified by fluorescence-activated cell sorting analyses. RESULTS: The total number of microparticles was strongly increased in patients with SSc compared with healthy controls (mean +/- SEM 88.0 +/- 4.8 x 10(5) microparticles/ml plasma versus 42.3 +/- 9.4 x 10(5) microparticles/ml plasma; P < 0.001). Similarly, significant increases were found for microparticles derived from platelets, endothelial cells, monocytes, and T cells, reflecting the activation of these cells in SSc. Platelets were the most common source of microparticles in the blood of patients with SSc (66.9 +/- 5.2% of all microparticles) and healthy donors, followed by microparticles derived from endothelial cells (8.8 +/- 0.9% in SSc patients). The modified Rodnan skin thickness score (MRSS) was inversely correlated with the total number of microparticles. Furthermore, patients with cutaneous ulcers showed a significantly lower total number of microparticles. In multivariate analysis, an additive model of age, C-reactive protein, MRSS, and subtype of disease accounted for 55% of the variability of the total microparticle count (r = 0.744). CONCLUSION: The number of microparticles from different cellular sources is increased in the blood of SSc patients. Considering their role as important mediators of intercellular communication, microparticles could be a novel link between activated cellular compartments in the pathogenesis of SSc.

IRVINE, Calif. -- With gas prices soaring and Earth Day just around the corner, Kelley Blue Book is out with its Top 10 Green Cars for 2011.
Among those it considers the most environmentally friendly cars on the market this year are the 2012 Ford Focus, the 2012 Fiat 500 and the 2011 all-electric Nissan Leaf. And Micah Muzio, managing editor for Kelley Blue Book's kbb.com, says you can't talk about top green cars without mentioning the Toyota Prius -- "still a mileage champ."
Muzio says "driving pleasure and a good ownership experience" were considered along with superior fuel economy. And he says, "with all the hype about hybrids and electric cars, there's still a lot to be said for the traditional internal combustion engine." He says they've gotten so efficient that 40 is the new 30 in miles per gallon.

On March 23, 2013, New York Times reporter Matt Richtel reported a story titled: Selling a Poison by the Barrel: Liquid Nicotine for E-Cigarettes which many "Vapers" are calling an unfair attack on the electronic cigarette industry. This of course is just one of the most recent news stories being reported on the e-cigarette industry which seems to be based more on sensationalism more than facts. This problem is one that is increasing across all major news outlets and is one that many people want to see stopped. A forum post on e-Cigarette Forum has several people in the Vaping Community outraged at this type of reporting.
The article published by Mr. Richtel starts out by stating, "A dangerous new form of a powerful stimulant is hitting markets nationwide, for sale by the vial, the gallon and even the barrel." Sure, nicotine is available in various quantities; however, it is not typically purchased in large quantities by people who are not using it to manufacture e-liquid. As far as it being available by the gallon and barrel, that is the way that many manufacturing ingredients are sold. When a consumer purchases nicotine by the vial it is usually already mixed into a flavor base of propylene glycol and vegetable glycol and is a finished product known as e-liquid or e-juice. Also, nicotine is not a "powerful" stimulant as is stated in the article. According to drugabuse.gov it is a mild stimulant comparative to caffeine.
Mr. Richtel also writes about one particular case where a person injected nicotine in order to commit suicide. Many electronic cigarette users have found this example to be inapplicable, because someone who wants to die is going to find a way if he or she is serious about it. The fact that the person chose to inject nicotine is a poor example. Had the nicotine not been available to the person, he could have just as likely chose to jump off a bridge, overdose on illicit or OTC drugs, or chose some other method of suicide.
It has also been suggested by many news reports that dessert or candy flavored e-liquid products are being used to try to lure kids into the electronic cigarette world. As hard as it may be to believe, there are a lot of adults out there who love sweets. These flavors are being used to fill the needs and desires of adult e-cigarette users and are not being marketed to children.
Many news agencies blame the fact that dessert and candy flavored e-liquids smell good makes small children want to drink them. These reports are a feeble attempt to place the blame on e-liquid instead of placing the blame where it truly belongs, on the parents. It is a parent's responsibility to ensure their child stays safe by keeping harmful objects out of reach of the child. Most parents know that if they leave a bottle of bleach lying around where their child can get to it, then the child might drink it and become very ill or even die. The same care and judgment should be used by parents when it comes to e-liquid as well.
A bad stigma is being put on e-liquid and the entire electronic cigarette industry because of irresponsible reporting and irresponsible parenting. It is remarkable that most reports do not mention the more than 480,000 deaths that occur every year in the United States from smoking tobacco cigarettes. It is also astonishing that more reports are not generated about the number of people who have been able to quit smoking because they switched to "vaping" e-cigarettes. It appears as though the only agenda mainstream media outlets have is creating misleading stories to scare people away from using electronic cigarettes. These stories are unfair to the Vaping Community as well as society as a whole.

Stay Connected
Agricultural Economic Report No. (AER-606) 38 pp, February 1989
The Conservation Reserve Program, a land retirement program designed to remove from production 40 to 45 million acres of highly erodible cropland, may generate an estimated $3.5 to $4 billion in water quality benefits. Potential benefits include lower water treatment costs, lower sediment removal costs, less flood damage, less damage to equipment which uses water, and increased recreational fishing. Benefits were estimated with a set of procedures that approximated the physical, chemical, biological and economic links between soil erosion and water use.
Keywords: Agricultural economics, environmental services, benefits, nonpoint-source pollution, nutrients, sediment, soil erosion, soil conservation, water quality

On some of my natural nail clients my polish tends to bubble. I clean the nail plate with acetone very well before I polish. Then I use base coat, two coats of polish, and top coat. I usually have them hold their fingers in front of a fan between coats, and I spray a rapid dryer on after I finish. Any ideas?
It sounds like you're following through well on your application, but with polish there are a couple things you have to look out for so you don't get bubbling. Pay special attention to how you apply each coat. If one of your layers is uneven, it will dry unevenly. This can cause you to think a coat is completely dry when it is not, and then you apply the next coat too soon.
As the underneath wet part continues to dry and evaporate, the gases will bubble up into the coat on top of them and cause bubbles.
Even if a coat is put on evenly, it is often too thick, which takes longer to dry. And if a layer is still wet when the next coat is put on, it will bubble. This happens a lot when using rapid dryers. The final top coat is put on and then rapid dried, but the layers underneath are still wet, so the evaporation causes the bubbles.
Bubbles can also happen if a polish bottle is shaken too much before application — rolling the bottle between your hands is better.
Also, you don't want to spend a lot of time applying each coat. Fussing with them too much can make them thick or uneven. You want to make each coat a smooth and quick application. — Lois Kuntz is the owner of Trendsetters Salon in Lemoore, Calif.

Hi Experts,
I tried the message types CONF21 and PPCC2PRETTICKET for confirmation of process order. The IDOCs are getting posted with status 53 but the confirmation is not getting updated in SAP.
But from different documentation I think these message types can only be used for confirmation of production order and not for the process order.
Is there any standard IDOC available for confirmation of Process order.
Request your expert advise.
Thanks in advance
hi Enrico,
try to use ORDRSP if it is a Order Response
or use IORUPD if it is a Order Status....
Hi Gaurav,
Thanks for your reply.
But I think the message types mentioned are not for process order confirmation.
What Iam looking is something similar to PPCC2PRETTICKET or CONF21 which are for production order.
Thanks and Regards
Hi ABAP experts,
Can anybody help me on this please?? Iam not finding any IDOC relevant for process order confirmation. The available IDOCs are part of PP PDC interface and is not confirming the process order, even if the status of the IDOC is becoming 53.
Please help.
Thanks in advance
Hello Enrico
Did you get any answer for this one. I have the same requirement here. We would like to confirm a process order via idoc but the CONF21 seems not suitable.
I know this is an old post, but we have the same problem.
Did you find a sollution?

College Hockey:North Dakota Sweeps Mavericks With 2-1 Win
Sioux Return To Final Five As Defending Champions
GRAND FORKS, N.D. — North Dakota refused to be victimized by the upset bug afflicting the WCHA playoffs.
The Fighting Sioux defeated visiting Minnesota State 2-1 to complete a two-game sweep of the best-of-three series at Ralph Engelstad Arena. The win moves sixth-ranked UND — the defending Broadmoor Cup champions — into the WCHA Final Five March 15-17 at the Xcel Energy Center in St. Paul.
"Coming into this, we didn't really talk about anything else," said UND coach Dave Hakstol. "We wanted a chance to go back to St. Paul and be part of our league's championship tournament. Now we've got four or five days to prepare."
"It's do or die for the team," said UND assistant captain Rylan Kaip. "Everyone's just playing their hearts out and working as hard as they can."
Kaip's goal at 18:28 of the second period stood as the game winner. Sioux junior goalie Philippe Lamoureux stopped 23 of 24 shots he faced and helped hold the Mavericks 0-6 on the power play.
UND improved its record to 21-12-5 and continues to be one of the hottest teams in the nation. The Sioux are 14-2-4 in the second half of the season.
MSU coach Troy Jutting started sophomore goalie Dan Tormey, who replaced Mike Zacharias in Friday's game after he surrendered five goals. Coupled with a defensive-minded strategy, the switch nearly paid off as Tormey made 25 saves on 27 shots. He also held UND's high-powered first line of Ryan Duncan, Jonathan Toews and T.J. Oshie to a single power-play goal.
MSU, which ends its season 13-19-6, played UND six times and went 0-5-1 against the Sioux. Mavericks coach Troy Jutting believes UND has the right personnel to go far in the playoffs.
"Any time you have three players up front the caliber of those three kids, and then you throw in the defensemen, you know they've got some skill back there," he said. "Taylor Chorney's one of the better defensemen in the country, along with Brian Lee.
"Their chances are very good," he continued. "The lines that don't score a ton for them are big and strong and do a good job defensively. And they chip in every now and then. That's the key to success."
One of Tormey's biggest saves came off his own mistake with about 1:20 left in the first period and the game tied 0-0. Trying to play the puck behind the net, the MSU goalie gave it away to UND's Andrew Kozek, who put it out front to Kaip. But before he could get a shot off, Tormey dove to the side of the net and smothered the puck.
All the game's scoring occurred in the second period. Duncan put UND up 1-0 at 12:45 with a four-on-three power-play goal, his 29th goal of the season. Alone in the right circle, the Sioux forward held the puck, took a good look and then fired a wrister that caught the top corner glove-side.
MSU evened the game at 1 with a goal by junior forward Joel Hanson at the 15:43 mark. Defenseman Brian Kilburg fired a shot from the point after Zach Harrison won the faceoff in UND's zone. Hanson tipped the shot on the way in. Lamoureux appeared to have the puck stopped, but it trickled through his pads with just enough speed to slide over the goal line.
At 18:28, UND retook the lead by capitalizing on a two-on-two rush. Breaking into the MSU zone, senior forward Erik Fabian feathered a pass to Kaip as he raced down the slot. He gathered the puck and fired a wrist shot that beat Tormey high glove-side to give UND a 2-1 lead it held to game's end.
"I got a step on the one D-man and Fabian made a heck of a pass over to me," Kaip said. "I was just trying to get a shot on goal and was fortunate that it went over his glove."
In the third period, UND's relentless forechecking limited MSU to seven shots on goal. The Mavericks' best opportunity to tie the game came late when UND defenseman Joe Finley was called for hooking. But Lamoureux and UND's penalty killers continued to frustrate the Mavericks, who went 1-13 on the power play for the series.
"We had our chances tonight," Jutting said. "Lamoureux made a couple of big saves and we missed on a couple of opportunities when we shot it wide. For us to win against this team right now, we had to keep it down to a game like that and we had to get a break or two — and we just didn't."
Tormey was pulled for the extra attacker with 1:05 left in the game and a faceoff deep in UND's zone. Oshie appeared to ice the game for the Sioux with an empty-net goal with 17.2 seconds left, but the play was blown offside. However, it made no difference as UND held on for its first home sweep since Oct. 7, when the Sioux swept Quinnipiac in its opening series of the season.
"It's been a long time between sweeps here at home in front of our fans," Hakstol said. "I'm happy we could do that in front of them. They were tremendous this year. It's nice to be able to repay them a little bit with the last series of the year."
Although some have said UND is in the NCAA tournament no matter what happens from this point on, Kaip said the players aren't looking at it that way.
"We're not even thinking about that, really," he said. "We're going one game at a time, and that's been our philosophy for the last two months. It's been playoff hockey. You got to win your next game. That's all that matters."

Natural introvert that I am, I spent a good portion of this week recovering from Alt Summit. I met so many amazing people at Alt, half of which I knew online and the other half that were new to me.
I'm pictured above with Gabby from Design Mom, Laura from Blog con Queso, Trina from La La Lovely, Courtney from A Thoughtful Place, Sarah from Ringo's Girl, Whitney from Whitney English. I also loved seeing my roommate Arianne from To Think is To Create, and Jessica from The Mom Creative.
It was music to my creative soul to spend time with these women. Nothing inspires me more. Not pictured, but happy to have made a connection with Kathleen (fellow Okie!), Kirsten from Simply Grove (she gave me amazing church advice), Promise Tangeman (blown away by her hair and style), and so many others. I'm still going through the business cards I collected, and I have a feeling that they will provide me with many, many future links.
This week on the HH facebook page we talked about the effects of taking facebook off my phone, what I mean when I press speed dial "home" on the same phone, and I quoted Seth Godin from a great interview I linked.
This week over at allParenting, I'm giving tips on how to Stay On Top Of Your Photo Storage. This is one I get asked about all the time, so if you're drowning in photos, check it out.
- Here's a video of two men experiencing labor contractions. This is long, but funny. Send it to your husbands. (Thought Catalogue)
- How to Blog: My Rules. (Incidentally, her book Dinner: A Love Story is on my To Read list.)
- Lies Writers Tell Themselves. I'm on board with all of these except the one about blogging. I bet the author has never had a post have 50,000+ page views in a single day like my friend Sarah Bessey did this week when she published I Am Damaged Goods at Deeper Story.
- Do your kids know your phone number yet? My daughter, though I'm sure she has the capacity to memorize it. Reading this story made me want to start singing it to her over and over, as a lullaby. (Checklist Mommy)
- Why are LA Places So Popular on Instagram? 'Cause it's awesome here? I'm just guessing. (LA Weekly)
We have houseguests this weekend, so we'll be entertaining and watching football. I'll probably make hamburgers. I'll probably get nostalgic about the first time I conceived, since it happened to be on Super Bowl Sunday.
Was that too much information?
Happy weekend!

You don't have to wait until Memorial Day or Veterans Day to pay your respects to the men and women who risk their lives in defense of our nation; and while Christmas and Thanksgiving are great opportunities to collect food and toiletries for our troops, they appreciate donations year-round.
Earlier this month, a group of Upper School students from Gerstell Academy collected, packed and transported over 30 boxes of food and household items to Fisher House in Bethesda, MD. The Fisher House Foundation donates "comfort homes," built on the grounds of major military and VA medical centers, so that members of the military and their families, who are stationed worldwide and must often travel great distances for specialized medical care, will have a place to stay. These homes enable family members to be close to a loved one at the most stressful times - during the hospitalization for an unexpected illness, disease, or injury.
The Gerstell students are members of the school's Community Action Group, comprised of Upper School students who wish to take an active leadership role in the community. The group was instrumental in organizing the collection of goods and delivering the boxes to the Bethesda House where they used the opportunity to tour the facility and meet some of the guests.
The students also took time to express their appreciation for our veterans and their families, because the time is always right to thank our military for their service.

You know summer is in full swing when July 4th is upon us! At Roche Bros., we have everything you need to celebrate Independence Day with family and friends and make it delicious.
From that sweet and tangy BBQ taste to desserts in patriotic shapes and colors, here are our suggestions to make your Fourth of July special:
If you're looking to heat things up by firing up the grill – or want a little spice at your cookout – we have all the special items you need to make memories at your BBQ.
For the main course, offer our Certified Angus Prime Grinds and Fenway Franks.
Don't forget to stop in the bakery for the rolls! And look for gluten-free BBQ options in the grocery aisle.
Make it a Rib Fest with all sorts of fresh ribs in our meat department, with your favorite barbecue sauce. You can also find grill-ready ribs in the meat case, with your choice of sauces. Or bring home a ready-to-go BBQ from Our Kitchen with BBQ Pulled Pork, St. Louis BBQ Ribs and BBQ Jumbo Chicken Leg Quarters! Just heat and serve, without even lighting up the grill.
Add some real cache to your stars-and-stripes celebration with our new Chef Ready Lobster Tails. Try them plain or marinated, with your choice of Lemon Rosemary, Lime Vinaigrette, Roasted Garlic, Sweet Teriyaki or Sriracha BBQ.
Show off your cooking skills by Grilling Vegetables to enjoy on the side. From corn on the cob grilled in the husk to rainbow grilled vegetables on skewers, you really can't go wrong. Or pick up some hot side dishes from Our Kitchen. Twice Baked Potatoes and Mom's Baked Beans are sure to be devoured.
When you're ready for a toast, check out our primer on pairing your grilled meats with wines to enhance their flavor.
With the sun beating down, some of your guests will surely want to play it cool. Make sure you have these crisp, cool options available for them to enjoy:
Salads: Always a crowd-pleaser, find Bud Roche's original recipe Homemade Potato Salad in our deli department.
It's also a great time to try something new! We have four new savory salads in our deli. Select from spicy Sriracha Chicken Salad, zesty Basil Tomato Tortellini Salad, crunchy Edamame Cranberry with Walnuts Salad and fresh Orzo Kale Salad. If you can't decide, serve more than one!
Our Kitchen is also brimming with fresh new takes on salad that are full of flavor and packed with healthy ingredients. Try Summer Vegetable Couscous Salad and Three-Bean Kale Salad for the 4th.
Dips: Our Kitchen's Guacamole, Seven-Layer Dip and Buffalo Chicken Dip go well with crackers, chips and your crudite platter.
Cheese: For this weekend's festivities, why not make your own cheese board? Roche Bros.' cheese department has everything you need. A traditional French cheese board includes four cheeses: one made with sheep's milk, one made with cow's milk, one goat cheese and one blue cheese.
Try Locatelli Pecorino Romano, President Brie, Chavrie Goat Cheese and Salemville Amish Blue. Or ask an expert for suggestions in the cheese department. Add grapes, almonds and a bit of honey and your cheese board is complete.
And if don't have the time, don't worry! We have plenty of time to make a cheese board for you, so come to Roche Bros. to pick one up.
We're celebrating red, white and blue with an array of Patriotic Desserts in our bakery that are ready for you to bring home! From cakes to tarts to trifles, we have an option for everyone.
Use that sweet final moment to keep things cool with sliced watermelon and popsicles in all colors. On a holiday at this time of year, you'll need enough frozen delights for kids and grown-ups alike.
Extend the party a little bit longer by circling the grill and roasting marshmallows to make s'mores. We have many choices for graham crackers, marshmallows and chocolate throughout the grocery department.

Does Nioxin Shampoo or Conditioner Cause Hair Loss?- Thursday, April 09, 2009
I purchased Nioxin shampoo and conditioner because my barber saw that my hair was receding at the temples. After using it for about 6 weeks and letting it soak for a minute or two, my hair began to get thinner in the front. I immediately stopped using it. Is it possible that Nioxin caused my hair loss? My doctor told me to wait six months and see if it would grow back. But it's been 4 months and it's not looking too good.
There is nothing in Nioxin shampoo or their conditioner that causes or facilitates hair loss. And though Nioxin makes good quality products, there is no proof to suggest they can strengthen thinning hair or reverse the balding process either.
Male pattern baldness is progressive and since you are not seeing any improvement in the areas of thinning hair after 4 months of stopping Nioxin, your hair loss is most likely genetic and will continue to progress with time.
To date, the two most effective non-surgical hair loss treatments are Propecia (finasteride) and Rogaine (minoxidil). However, even these drugs are typically better at slowing down or stopping its progression rather than growing hair in completely bald areas. They are also considered more effective in the vertex area however, many have used these treatments successfully to strengthen weak hair in the hairline.
