Can I get Restylane on my face while on doxil chemo?

Restylane while on Chemotherapy
Restylane and chemotherapy is not a direct contraindication but I would consult your oncologist to be sure.

Filler and Chemotherapy
I agree with what was said below. I have no issues with injecting HA fillers in patients on chemo or with cancer. There should be no risk of harm, as long as the treating physician has good clean technique -- lowering the risk of any infections. But I would check with your oncologist. I wish you the best of luck, Dr. Emer.
Can I get Restylane on my face while on doxil chemo?
Should be NO issue if I was your injecting doctor. But you need to ask your oncologist and injecting doc if they have a problem with HA filler injections...

Can you use a variation of Amy? Such as Amorette? (They both come from the French Amie -to love - I believe)...Rosalie ________ Amorette is really nice! Or Amabel or Amaryllis or something like that? What other names are you thinking about as the first name? I know someone whose daughters are named Cadence, Langley, and Corinne...you could do something like Corinne Rosalie Amorette or Rosalie Corinne Amabel....Another woman I know whose daughter's name is Cadence named her second daughter Sage....Sage Rosalie Amorette? If you do go for Amy Rosalie as the middle, I like another A name up front, to string those two together and break up the rhythm of Amy Rosalie a bit. Something like Adelaide Amy Rosalie or Audra Amy Rosalie or Annika Amy Rosalie might work...Good Luck!

Three and a half years ago, Advance Auto Parts, a retailer of auto replacement parts and accessories, laid a challenge at the feet of its learning and development team. They were instructed to improve the performance of their 3,800 stores through learning without increasing its budget.
It was a tall order, but within a year, the team had done just that, using a blended approach of classroom training and an improved online instructional design bolstered by brand new video content.
The Advance Auto Parts story
"Up until four years ago, training was very haphazard," says Scott Thompson, who was director of training and development for Advance Auto Parts until September (he still works with them as a consultant).
Related reading: How World-Renowned Design Consultancy IDEO Used Design Thinking to Build an Online School
Advance Auto Parts had been using an old learning management system, called ELM, but the online content — Powerpoint presentations with voiceovers — wasn't engaging, Thompson recalls. The company's field-based training was held regionally in hotels and in the back of stores, done by trainers who had been pulled out of stores themselves.
"We felt that our online content needed to be engaging," says Thompson. The company's workforce tended to learn by watching YouTube tutorials, so Thompson and his team set out to improve the online content for Advanced Auto Parts, placing their focus on video production.
To do that, Thompson merged the company's video production team, which had been used until that point for marketing and consumer education, with the instructional design team. This new department produced a series of training videos for store employees, showing, for example, how automotive systems work by placing tiny cameras inside automobiles.
"We put cameras places cameras should not go," he says.
Videos were made around customer service and sales, as well, showing what a great customer interaction looks like.
Blending online and in-person training
Advance Automotive Parts also revamped its in-person training, inviting the general managers of every store to a centralized training in 2013.
Thompson says, "We found out that we could for the exact same cost, fly every general manager in our company to our headquarters for a week of training, as we could spend having all these trainers traveling all over the country to conduct workshops in hotel rooms and the back of stores."
About 50 percent of the general managers attended that first training, which set up a natural A/B Test. Thompson and his department later learned that over the course of the following year, the stores whose managers attended the training contributed $2 million more to the company's bottom line than the stores whose managers didn't attend.
The company is currently launching a new online learning platform, based on a Learn-Test-Do methodology. Employees take a 15-minute online course, pass a test, and then practice their new skill at work. When they feel ready to be observed, they click a button and their manager receives a notification that it's time to observe the employee. The manager observes and submits his or her observations via the LMS.

Instructional design takeaways
Other training programs can learn several lessons in instructional design from the the Advance Auto Parts experience. For example:
- Stakeholders must see themselves in your training: It's important for team members to recognize themselves, and their situation at work, in training materials, says Thompson: "We're very careful about buying off-the-shelf content, because if it doesn't look and sound and feel like us, people dismiss it."
- Your learning platform matters: Online learning is about both the content and the experience of the elearning itself. Many of Advance Auto Parts employees are used to learning on platforms like YouTube, and training content must compete with that. "The experience will prevent them from learning the information if you don't have a good learning experience," he says.
- Keep supervisors involved in e-learning: When most organizations start an elearning program, says Thompson, they make the mistake of taking the responsibility of training the team away from the managers. By making an effort to keep the managers involved in elearning (having them observe and evaluate a task, for example) online learning is reinforced in person. "You need to keep the manager involved," Thompson explains. "They are responsible for training their team, not the computer."

Quebec Long-Gun Registry A Popular Idea, Poll Suggests
MONTREAL — A new survey conducted for a gun-control advocacy group suggests that two-thirds of Quebecers are in favour of the registration of long guns.
Leger's poll for PolySeSouvient comes as provincial lawmakers study Bill 64, which, if passed, would create Canada's only provincial long-gun registry.
The survey, a copy of which was provided to The Canadian Press, found that 69 per cent of those polled were in favour of a registry, versus 26 per cent who were opposed. Five per cent had no opinion.

The online poll surveyed 1,004 Quebecers between April 15 and April 17.
Respondents were asked: "Do you agree with the implementation of a firearms registry (the registration of long guns) in Quebec so as to be able to link each weapon to its legal owner?"
The results, to be made public Wednesday, also found that 90 per cent of Quebecers were in favour of an obligatory verification of firearms permits to ensure they are valid before a weapon is sold. Proponents argued during recently concluded public hearings it is a necessary amendment
Advocacy group wanted to make point
"There was more and more talk coming from the opponents (of the registry) that the majority of Quebecers don't support registration," said PolySeSouvient spokeswoman Heidi Rathjen.
"We wanted to get the latest measurements of public opinion regarding the registry in Quebec and one of the main amendments that has been called for by us and expert groups is the mandatory inspection of the permit at time of sale."
Quebec is looking to set up its own registry after the former Conservative government abolished the federal database for non-restricted guns in 2012.
The province fought Ottawa in court to save the Quebec data, ultimately losing at the Supreme Court before moving forward on its own last December.
Hunters, sport shooters arguing against bill
But the debate surrounding the Quebec bill has caused political wedges and ideological divides.
Grassroots opposition to the bill has emerged, with much of it coming from hunters and sport shooters. They argue Canadian licensing regulations are sufficient, while gun-control advocates counter most Quebecers want a registry and that licences aren't enough.
Rathjen says her goal is an effective registry minus "loopholes" and "grey areas."
A spokesman for grassroots group Tous contre un registre quebecois des armes a feu (All Against a Quebec Firearms Registry) says the poll results are not surprising given who commissioned the survey and the way the questions were asked.
"But if we asked the questions in a different way — looking at cost versus utility, for example — it could completely change those results," Guy Morin said. "The survey at some level is leading, giving them the numbers they were looking for."
Rural politicians targeted
Some rural politicians have been targeted in the past because many voters in their ridings are opposed to the bill. There are also concerns about the costs of the registry and Morin says the protests will continue.
"We're here to make sure this bill doesn't pass," said Morin.
The polling industry's professional body, the Marketing Research and Intelligence Association, says online surveys cannot be assigned a margin of error because they do not randomly sample the population.

Hopefully both are far away from the day school.
We're not sure what's weirder: the fact that there's a drive-thru or that liquor/gun gift baskets exist.

So THAT'S why RadioShack is still in business.
For all your shotgun wedding needs.
Sadly, the asterisk next to Free Handgun* doesn't lead to a message at the bottom that says, "Just kidding."

Which of these things is not like the others?

Sorry, if you need your liquor and guns BEFORE 10:00 a.m., you're out of luck.

Quins have remained unbeaten at The Stoop in 2001, turning round their season from a potential relegation dog-fight to a position of security and a quest for cup honours in Europe and at home.
And they can now go into their two final league matches, away to Wasps and champions Leicester, with no inferiority complex.
Sale offered little resistance, apart from an occasional dazzling run by full-back Jason Robinson.
While Quins prospered from playing with a strong wind at their backs in the first half, they visitors knew they had no chance of clawing back a 19-3 deficit when they conceded two quick tries after the break.
Quins could even afford the luxury of a triple substitution in the forwards with 22 minutes to go.
Relentless early pressure led to Garrick Morgan being driven over for the opening try after four minutes.
Charles Hodgson replied with a penalty, but Paul Burke landed four successful kicks for Quins by half-time.
The key point of the match was the opening 12 minutes of the second half when first Daren O'Leary raced in at the corner and then captain David Wilson pounced from close range.
Sale could not make the conditions work in their favour, and Quins continued to dominate despite making further changes to their side.
Quins were down to 14 men, having lost lock Steve White-Cooper to injury, when Sale finally opened their try account through Dave Baldwin with nine minutes to go.
As the Londoners had used all their forward replacements, they were forced to send on half-back Craig Chalmers in his place.
Deep into injury time, O'Leary earned Quins a bonus point with his second try.

Even as Lok Sabha MP Varun Gandhi strongly denied allegations of leaking information to middleman Abhishek Verma, BJP said that there was no need for the party to comment on the issue.
The BJP leaders sought to downplay the issue, claiming that they would wait and watch how it pans out in the coming days. "It is up to him to clarify his role," a party source said, adding that the same issue had been brought to the knowledge of the party leadership when he was made general secretary in 2013. As there was not much in the allegations, the BJP went ahead and made him a general secretary. He is not holding any post currently.
Party strategists also said that the issue many not have much resonance during the Uttar Pradesh elections.
BJP national secretary Shrikant Sharma said, "He(Gandhi) has issued a clarification. There is no need for further comments."
Varun Gandhi in his defence had said, "I am going to turn 37 now. I have never met him (Verma) since I entered public life in 2004. The only reason I even know of him is because his parents were members of the Parliament and a respected family. I knew them just like many other leaders knew them."
Allegations were levelled against Varun by Swaraj Abhiyan leaders Prashant Bhushan and Yogender Yadav, saying that he had leaked defence secrets to middleman Verma and arms manufacturers after being "honey trapped."

The visualisation technique of 'small multiples' is often used to communicate a simple message. The above example shows maps of temperature change from 1850-2016 – the overall warming trend is obvious even though the details are fuzzy.
Technical details: The HadCRUT4.4 dataset is used with anomalies from a 1961-1990 baseline period. An annual average for a particular grid cell and year is only shown if 6 or more months have data, otherwise it is coloured grey. 2016 is for the year to date. The colour scale runs from around -2.5C to +2.5C.
Other examples: NASA have made a similar visualisation for melting Arctic sea ice.

The Red Sox picked up a new catcher the other day, because he was capable of catching their knuckleballer. But he was in San Diego, and they need him to catch that night. So, they got him a private jet -- cool. But on ESPN, he mentioned that, when he got to Boston, he was driven by cops to Fenway Park at 100 miles per hour.
Do you think if, say, a plumber is late for work in Beantown, he can get a high-speed police escort to work?

Aliah: Training
I quickly hopped in the shower, brushed my teeth and got dressed, I figured I should wear something not easily damaged so I wore my camoflage trousers-both girly and practical- and a white vest top, I thought I might get a few laughs, y'know training, brutality, camoflage.........I was born sarcastic.
I walked out into the brightness of the morning sun, joined the other's for breakfast, smiling at the few who got my joke and glancing at Liam every few minutes. When breakfast was over, I felt positively energised- Oliver does an amazing job! =)
I ran into Liam outside "I see your ready for training" he looked at my camoflage trousers and smiled.
"Yes indeed, I respect my time in the core"
"Core?" Liam laughed "I'll have to remember that one"
I winked at him and smiled "I have a feeling the competitive drive will start today, it's going to be brutal"
"Yeah, the way Eva glares at Eric....." We both shuddered "So, I was thinking that after capture the flag tonight......we could meet up"
My eyes lit up like a christmas tree "Same time, same place?"
Liam nodded.
"That'd be awesome, roll on capture the flag" I giggled and gestured to the others making their way to training "Guesse we'd better get a move on then" I sighed.
Liam and I made our way over to the training place and stood there together.
"Get into teams!"
I sighed "See you tonight Liam" and then, I did something without realising it, I kissed Liam on the cheek and joined my team, starting up a conversation with Spirit Ise, she seems alot differerent to other people, but not in a bad way.

GBP/USD: will be there a new drop or not?
On October 2nd Theresa May put foot at the podium, cleared her throat and sent a bunch of shockwaves through markets. The government will invoke Article 50 in March 2017! It resulted in the British pound breaking down rather significantly during the past trading sessions and now heading to the 1.25 level opening the door to even more selling opportunities.
A lot of this was due to the fact that the Article 50 is becoming more and more of a reality; and there won't be a plain sailing. We will be faced up with a really grievous farewell from the UK. Although I don't understand traders' reaction to this news. It seems that a lot of them were a bit blindsided, frantically busy with their financial operations, and didn't notice that the ball has already started to roll many days ago. Well, although the pound has already suffered significantly, many analysts expect that with new traders awakening from their sleep, the GBP will be falling further. Many stakeholders confirm this assumption by opening new shorts.
Credit Suisse hurried to revise its target to 1.22 from previous 1.34. BNP Paribas is in line with its peer. It expects the pound to fall further as the government prepares its negotiation strategy ahead of March. The GBP/USD is now below the 1.28 level, and while the perspective of trading GBP from the long is quite attractive as the pair reaches the 1.25 level, BNPP officials prefer not to take any rash measures and keep watching the pound sliding to its historical lows.
Goldman Sachs is also having a rather bearish sentiment towards the pound. The Bank of England made it clear that it is ready to deliver a monetary stimulus for the UK economy. In addition, it left the door open for further easing. As we see the recent data coming from UK keep the BoE away from its promises, but it doesn't mean that the upcoming data will be as good as it is. Therefore, Goldman Sachs's forecasts for the British pound are extremely bearish. It set its current 3-month forecast at 1.20.
However, not everyone agrees with these gloomy predictions for the pound. Aurelija Augulyte, currency analyst with Nordea Markets believes the GBP is already extremely undervalued. She thinks that some global events in the upcoming months will accord support for the pound. Moreover, she sees GBP/USD rising at the end of this year reaching the 1.32 level.
So, it is for you to decide, in which direction GBP will go further. I think that there is a rationale to sell short-term rallies if you are so inclined to scalp the market, but at this point in time I have no interest in risking any money and I would rather wait for the new steady trend to show up. Because, let's face it, the 1.25 level is rather low for this currency pair.

I adore exquisite smells, the scent of lemon essential oil, the aroma of coffee roasting, the perfume from flowering rose bushes, the spicy hit from freshly squeezed ginger and pineapple juice, the greenness of basil leaves and newly mown grass, and the minty mist of toothpaste, yes toothpaste.
At the end of last year I was given some Liberty 'money' by a dear friend – a gold coin representing a certain amount of pounds sterling. It's an innovative twist on the gift voucher. Already I was feeling special. Cue time for a guilt-free luxury treat from Liberty, probably, the most gorgeous store in London.
The choice du jour? Aesop Rejuvenate Intensive Body Balm which I'm also indulgently using as a hand cream. It smells delicious. The fragance of tangerine rind, vanilla, and sandalwood transports me back to a time driving through the Italian countryside bursting with orange groves, on the way to another friend's wedding reception.
Talking of toothpaste, the balm comes in those old school metallic tubes.
And Aesop the company is based in Melbourne (which is in the top five of my favourite most liveable cities). This is what it says on the about page, on their classically clean site:
"Aesop values all human endeavours undertaken with intellectual rigour, vision, and a nod to the whimsical. We make every product with the same attention to detail that we believe should be applied to life at large, taking into consideration the climate and environment in which you live and work."
"We advocate the use of our products as part of a balanced life that includes a healthy diet, sensible exercise, a moderate intake of red wine, and a regular dose of stimulating literature."
(Me nodding furiously, yes, yes, stimulating literature.)
With all the memories of international travel, a company that champions my values, and just feeling royally pampered, this is a treat that does more than moisturise my skin.
Hurrah for gift vouchers.
What treat or gift has led you down memory lane?

BERLIN (dpa) – German authorities have launched moves to prohibit the export of two violins made by music great Antonio Stradivari, as well as key items from an outstanding collection of paintings.
An outcry developed last year over plans by a troubled state-owned bank to offer some of its treasures for sale internationally. German museums say they cannot afford to bid for the art against wealthy private collectors in the Sotheby's and Christie's art salerooms.
Yielding to the criticism, the state of North Rhine Westphalia said this week it had summoned its committee on cultural treasures of significance to the nation to rule on whether the Stradivaris, a cello and up to 30 pieces of art should be subject to an export ban.
One of the violins, known as Lady Inchiquin, dates from 1711 and is on loan to the world-class violinist Frank Peter Zimmermann. The other dates from 1684. The 1860 Italian cello is by Giuseppe Antonio (or Joseph) Rocca.
The art collection was built up to grace the walls of West Deutsche Landesbank (WestLB), one of Germany's biggest banks before it succumbed to debt crises and a European Union ruling that state-guaranteed banks distort free competition and are illegal.
WestLB's shrunken core operating unit is now known as Portigon. It was eager to sell the valuable art, which includes items by August Macke, Pablo Picasso, Joseph Beuys and Sigmar Polke, to reduce debt.

FDU students enjoy 'pura vida' in Costa Rica
Victoria Francavilla paints local child Akil's hand so he can add his handprints to a bench in the bus stop. Students tackled refurbishing two bus stops during their time in Manzanillo, Costa Rica. (Photo by Melissa Hartz)
By Kenna Caprio
Winter break means one thing to Melissa Hartz, a graduate student at Fairleigh Dickinson University. Its time to head to Manzanillo, Costa Rica.
Manzanillo is a very special place to me the community there welcomes us with open arms, so when you come back, it's like being welcomed back home, says Hartz.
Hartz traveled to Costa Rica with ten other students from the College at Florham, Dean of Students Brian Mauro, and Head Womens Lacrosse Coach Adrienne Carr on an alternative winter break service trip running January 10-18. This is Hartzs second time going and the third trip run by the university to Costa Rica.
While in Costa Rica, students renovated the Manzanillo and Punta Uva bus stops; collected plastic bottles on the beach; applied fresh paint to barriers between the beach and the road; and performed cleanup work at the school.
At the Punta Uva stop, much of the paint was peeling off, the weeds were overgrown and it needed a thorough cleaning. In addition to the painting, we had a new roof put on the Manzanillo bus stop, as the sea causes lots of wear and tear. We also moved and painted concrete cylinders that serve as a border to keep cars from driving onto the beach, says Hartz. It was incredibly rewarding to be stopped by locals on the street and be told how much they enjoyed our presence there and how beautiful everything looked.
Benches in the bus stop now bear the handprints of local children Akil and Jail and handprints of some of the students. Brightly colored seats now also feature the phrase pura vida, which is considered a typical Costa Rican response to the question, how are you? Its also a way of life in the country.
Prime examples of those leading the pura vida lifestyle actually happen to be expats and former FDU professors Dan and Rose Twomey. The Twomeys, who helped establish the connection between Fairleigh and Manzanillo, invited the group to visit their home for lunch and conversation as part of experiencing the country beyond service projects.
Traveler Lauren Kannenberg, a senior, says her trip highlights reel includes getting to know the Twomeys. She also enjoyed volunteering her time and having outdoor adventures in Manzanillo.
Group members take shifts, spending a few hours here and there fishing, hiking or cooking before returning to work, says Hartz on her aptly titled FDU in Costa Rica blog.
Kannenberg lists playing basketball and soccer with the local kids, the insanely muddy and rainy rainforest hike, swimming in the Caribbean, learning more Spanish as top moments of the trip.
One of my favorite evenings during this years trip was sitting in the community center and learning how to play dominos, says Hartz. I spent the majority of the night with two locals I had become very close with they helped me with my Spanish, told me stories about their lives, and by the end of the night I had won two rounds but I have the sneaking suspicion that they let me win.
To read student accounts of the trip and see their photographs, visit Hartz's blog or Kannenberg's. A gallery featuring a selection of Hartzs photos is posted on the FDU Facebook page.
Pura vida, meaning the good life, is a typical response from Costa Ricans after being greeted with an hola. (Photo by Lauren Kannenberg)

Thought Leader Jessica Rector Dares Us to Confront Ourselves
Life's a funny thing. You weren't always the way you are now. Something happened and it changed how you make decisions, see the world, and show up.

After Jessica's presentation, your audience will be able to turn what's holding them back into opportunities that allow them to reach goals, create stronger relationships, and increase their confidence. Soon, they will be asking, "What's next," because they will know how shame is the catalyst for better leading, loving, and living.
