Tri-Pollar Non-Surgical Neck and Face Lift
- Tripollar RF - Superior III Generation Technology is used for non-surgically eliminating Fat deposits on the face and neck, Decrease Crease lines due to aging. TriPollar technology enables treatment of fine lines and very delicate areas of the face without causing damage or pain. These include areas around the lips and around the eyes. Tri-Pollar improvesCollagen Regeneration: The elastic fibers of the skin, collagen and elastin, are produced by fibroblasts. As they are heated, they contract and collagen strands are pulled closer resulting in immediately tightened skin. The deep heating effect in turn accelerates the fat cell metabolism to augment collagen regeneration over the full treatment course. The desired result: tighter, younger looking skin immediately and long-term skin remodeling. Tri-Pollar improves Fat Reduction: Heating the fat cells accelerates metabolism and causes them to shrink. The rise in temperature forces fat cells to secrete fatty acids (liquid fat), which are disposed via the blood and lymph system.The desired result: fat and circumference reduction and minimized cellulite appearance.
- TriPollar 3rd generation RF technology has a unique configuration of sophisticated control algorithms that prevents overheating and eliminates the need for skin and applicator cooling. This means safer, more efficient continuous heating, shorter treatment duration and fewer treatment sessions. Because of the relatively low power needed to perform Tripollar treatments, procedure is painless and pleasant. Tri-Pollar Radiofrequency Device is FDA approved for non-surgical, non-invasive treatment method for body contouring. It acts at 3 levels - Skin, Fat & Muscle. The Tri-Pollar Equipment used at Ojas provides the Dynamic Muscle Activation (DMA) which causes the muscle to contract them to push the released fat into the lymphatic system. Additionally, it tones the muscle to retain the body contour.So the treatment not only creates body contouring, but it also creates body toning with the DMA system and skin tightening, thus helping with saggy skin and making the skin feel smoother and looking younger.
TriPollar treatment Advantages
1) Effectively Reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
2) Firms up and rejuvenates the skin
3) Contours the facial skin
4) Sculpts the body and reduces unwanted fat deposits
5) Reduces the appearance of cellulite
6) Improves the appearance of stretch marks
I'm very happy with the procedure. It really helped tighten my jaw and neck area. It took about 3 months for me to notice more dramatic results. I loved it. People noticed that something had changed, but couldn't tell it was due to a procedure. The procedure was painless and very easy. Would definitely recommend it through a physician for best results.

Producer: DJ Clark Kent
Album: Conspiracy
Label: Big Beat
Chris Wallace repped for his Junior Mafia crew from day one—before we had any idea what it was or who was in it, Big was shouting out JM on records. Composed of childhood friends and associates from his BK stomping grounds, the 10-man collective inked a deal with Big Beat on the strength of Biggie's success (and industry connects).
Big recruited the Mafia's two most visible and charismatic members, Lil Kim and Lil Cease, to assist him on their breakout single, the Clark Kent-produced "Player's Anthem." Letting Cease-A-Leo lead off and saving Kim for the closer, Biggie played more of a background role. The song was an instant success, striking Gold and blazing a trail for the Queen Bee's solo debut, Hardcore.
Big always went above and beyond for his fellow Brooklynites, so it was no surprise to learn years later that Big wrote the entire song. Yep, those are Biggie's words being spewed by Kim and Cease. The Smalls, bitch, who you thought it was supposed to be?

…the leftover black bean salsa to make a wrap on a whole wheat tortilla with cheese and romaine lettuce. For dessert, I snacked on several fresh strawberries, a chocolate chip cookie and some skim milk. For dinner, Joe grilled his amazing burgers.
They were really big, and I knew we were going out for ice cream later, so I decided to just have half a burger. It was delicious, and the sides of baked sweet potato fries, grilled asparagus and steamed shrimp were awesome too. After dinner, we headed out to play a couple of games of putt-putt, then got frozen yogurt afterward. I got a small birthday cake-flavored yogurt topped with raspberries, pecans and chocolate chunks. What a treat!

|Patriots Look Poised For Another Super Bowl Run
|Bruins Trade For Drew Stafford
|Black and Gold Bruins Turn Yellow On Parade Day
|Inconsistency Will Continue For Bruins Unless A Change Is Made
In an off-season that perhaps is even more exciting than last year's lockout-shortened free agency period, the Patriots have plenty of needs. None are bigger, however, than wide receiver and defensive end. Let's now take a look at defensive end.
You will hear people say over the next few days that the Patriots don't really need to pursue a pass rusher. They'll tell you that Andre Carter had 10 sacks in 14 regular season games. They'll tell you that Mark Anderson had 10 sacks in 16 regular season games.
What they won't tell you is that Carter had four sacks in one game against the Jets in November, leaving him with six sacks in the remaining 13 games he played in. What they won't tell you is that Anderson had double digit sacks for the first time since the 2006-2007 season in Chicago.
Long story short, the Patriots need to get more pressure on the opposing quarterback. Let's take a look at a few possibilities (now that Mario Williams has decided to fade into obscurity up in Buffalo):
A pass rusher by nature, Abraham, who will be 34 in May, is a veteran player who could probably emulate the success Carter had for the Patriots this season. Abraham had 16.5 sacks in 2008, and has had double digit sacks six times in his 12 seasons.
Due to the thin, shallow group of defensive ends in this year's free agent market, we must now look to the draft to find a viable pass rusher. The Patriots, with two first- and two second-round picks, are in a position to target any one of these players:
Ingram should go higher in the draft, but if the Patriots identify him as a player they need, they certainly have the assets to move up in the draft. He totaled nine sacks for the Gamecocks last season.
With 12 sacks in his career at USC, Perry never quite lived up to the hype, but his talent remains attractive to teams looking for an athletic pass rusher. Bill Belichick loves a challenge, and getting the most out of Perry might be just that.
He led the NCAA with 16 sacks last season as a hybrid DE/OLB. He's a natural playmaker as he forced eight fumbles last season, and is a tall, long defender that has been foreign to the Patriots for years.

RAM on Board

What is RAM used for and why should I have so much? Arent eight or 16 MB enough for electronic charting programs?

D.J.

Jim Sexton responds:

The RAM in your computer is used to store the operating system and all running programs or applications. If your RAM memory is too small to hold the operating system and all running applications, then the computer is forced to use the much slower hard disk as a buffer to hold extra information. The process of moving blocks of memory to disk for temporary storage is called swapping. This will drain performance and cause a serious speed bottleneck.

Although great strides in processing power have pushed computer performance to higher and higher levels, most complaints about computer speed are the result of too little RAM. Personally, I would far prefer to use a computer with a marginal processor and lots of RAM than a computer with a fast processor hamstrung by a small amount of RAM.

The following is my suggested minimum and recommended amounts of RAM for various computer applications based on my experience in setting up systems and working in tech support. These numbers are not only my own opinion, but also the recommendations of computer experts. If you follow these guidelines, you will find your computing experience much improved. For each PC and Application the first number is the minimum suggested RAM and the last number is the recommended RAM.

PC with Windows 95/98, with a standard office suite, web browser and e-mail: 16MB; 32MB

PC with Windows 95/98, all the above uses plus electron charting: 32MB; 64MB

PC with Windows NT 4, with standard office suite, web browser and e-mail: 32MB; 64MB

PC with Windows NT 4, all the above uses plus electron charting; 64MB; 128MB

Katie Couric, was not warning parents about sexual predators when she said "They're after your children and grandchildren." No, the "Evening News" anchor was talking about corporations "spending nearly $17 billion a year trying to sell their products to our kids."
The one-sided May 14 segment blamed "far-reaching tentacles" of business for obesity and youth sexual activity, among other problems.
One critic, Dr. Susan Linn from the Campaign for a Commerical-Free Childhood said:
"Advertising and marketing is a factor in childhood obesity, in eating disorders, precocious irresponsible sexuality, youth violence, underage drinking, underaged tobacco use."
But Couric didn't give a single business the opportunity for rebuttal in the nearly five-minute story. Instead she relied on four critics of business for the report: Linn from CCFC, an author of an anti-industry book, a Pace University marketing professor, and one of the most liberal senators in Congress.
The CBS report attacked businesses from across the spectrum -- food, toys, restaurants and cars -- American Express, Baby Einstein, Chuck E. Cheese, Band-Aids and Oral-B toothbrushes were all named in the story.

Creating a sign chart
Is it possible to render a sign chart in Mathematica 10?
Typically a sign chart is used with the first and second derivatives to identify extrema. I know there are other ways to convey this information. However, in my case I need to demonstrate a sign chart by means of an illustation. I can create a graphic in Visio and import into Mathematica but I would prefer if there were a means of generating such a chart directly in Mathematica.
Something like:
Thanks for any ideas.

Calabrese sentenced to nine years
(Cleveland) - Attorney Anthony O. Calabrese III was sentenced to nine years in prison Thursday and ordered to pay more than $200,000.
It was for his role in a series of bribery schemes involving Jimmy Dimora, Frank Russo, J. Kevin Kelley and others uncovered as part of the Cuyahoga County corruption investigation.
"Anthony Calabrese misused his status as an attorney to facilitate bribes and foster corruption," said Stephen D. Anthony, Special Agent in Charge of the Federal Bureau of Investigation's Cleveland Office. "Today's sentence reflects the fact that Calabrese was deeply involved in a variety of bribery schemes involving a school district, a halfway house and the infamous trip to Las Vegas, just to name a few."
"His criminal conduct spanned his entire legal career," Assistant U.S. Attorney Antoinette Bacon said in court.
Calabrese, 40, of Chagrin Falls, Ohio, previously pleaded guilty to 18 counts which detail improper payments of nearly $550,000.
The counts include racketeering; conspiracy to commit mail fraud and honest services fraud; Hobbs Act conspiracy; bribery concerning programs receiving federal funds; conspiracy to commit mail fraud and mail fraud.
U.S. District Judge Sara Lioi sentenced Calabrese to 108 months in prison and ordered him to pay $132,041 in restitution -- $120,970 to Cuyahoga County and $11,071 to Parma schools. Calabrese has already forfeited $74,450

Intonation: Sentimental
Nature is my sanctuary and my place of comfort, where I feel most at home. I grew up with a strong emphasis on morals, integrity, humility, ingenuity, and family. Many of these lessons came through play, creation, and camping. When I think of my childhood my memories are filled with swimming in ice cold rivers, exploring mountains, and making fires. I can't imagine a future or a family of my own where nature does not play a significant role.
Intonation: Excited
I am and will always be a big kid, and yes there is a big difference between maturity and acting like a kid. I will never give up my sense of wonder or be bogged down by seriousness. I want to be with someone that can laugh at themselves as often as they can at me.
Intonation: Confident and Reserved
I am old fashioned in many ways, chivalry is not dead… or sexist for that matter. The kitchen is a great place to experiment and relax. I'm looking for a girl who equally enjoys a night on the town, dragging the mattress into the living room and watching movies all day, sleeping in a tent, or under the stars if you're brave enough. Someone who embraces their imperfections and may be a little quirky.
Intonation: Sarcastic
I luv takin pict$ o me$elf in da mirror n po$in wit my ride. I think it $oooo hot when $exy $hawty$ give the camera their be$t duck face. I want to be rich and famou$ and have everyone adore me. $omeday my names going to be on a building or a clothing line, I haven't decided yet. YOLO... and I don't mean the county.
Now switch around the intonations and re-read a passage or two… Does it change your opinion of who I am?
(Disclaimer: the above is written with correct intonation stated.)
Right now I am concentrating on fitness. I have been running everyday since June 1st and have got myself up to a 5 mile run in under a month. I do at least a 5k each day and I have started biking regularly as well. My goal is to run 100 days in a row and I'm almost there!
UPDATE: I ran 102 days without missing even one. I still work out daily, but not always running. Over the 102 days I went from 263 lbs to 197 lbs. I am less weight right now than when I was 15 years old, and it is fantastic!
Committing to something and seeing it through.
Music: Lately I've been into indie type singer song writers but I have a pretty broad range in music. Some favorites, Dan Mills, Brett Dennen, Jack Johnson, Ben Harper, and of course the classics, The Doors, Zeppelin, Paul Simon, and Hendrix. I even listen to country and blue grass from time to time. Bonus points if you know Wagon Wheel is not a "Formerly Known as Hootie" song.
Shows: The Office and Scrubs are a couple of my all time favorites.
Movies: There's Something About Mary, Anchorman, etc...
Books: What I've read most recently has been poetry from a collection titled The Outlaw Bible to American Poetry. It is collection ranging from Ginsberg to Tupac and Kaufman to Bob Dylan, it is an amazing collection. I am also currently reading The Agony and The Ecstasy: A Biographical Novel of Michelangelo (no not the ninja turtle, although that would be a good book).
-Close friends
-Backpacking equipment... no seriously, I might freeze to death without it.
-A positive outlook/Good sense of humor

A 40 inch board is cut into two pieces so that the shorter piece is two-thirds of the length of the longer piece. What are the lengths of the two cut pieces?
traveling fromchicago to kansas city is a 540 mile trip. A small plane, facing a headwind (going against the wind), took 9 hours to get to kansas city. on the return trip to chicago the plane had a tailwind ( going with the wind) and the trip took only 6 hours. What was the average plane speed and the average wind speed?
Please don't post a new question as a response to your own post. Often it would be overlooked since tutors think it has been answered.
longer piece ---- x
shorter piece ----(2/3)x
x+ 2x/3 = 40
3x + 2x = 120
long piece is 24 , short piece is 16
2. speed of plane in still air --- x mph
speed of wind ---- y mph
9(x-y) = 540 ---> x-y = 60
6(x+y) = 540 ---> x+y = 90
add them:
2x = 150
x = 75
speed of plane: 75 mph
speed of wind : 15 mph

Cuisinart Rice Cooker
Alton Brown always says not to get a single purpose item for the kitchen...and while there are certain times I disobey that rule (after all how many times can you make mini pumpkin cupcakes) in general I try to follow it. In addition to making rice this rice cooker also lets you steam things (vegetables, meat and dumplings! I love dumplings!).
This great dish can keep things ICE cold or very warm throughout your meal. Shrimp Cocktail would do great with this dish as it would keep everything cold.Tags: baby, entertaining, dishes, mommy, child, 4TH OF JULY, independence day, Hot or Cold Platters, serving dishesAdded 9 Years Ago from Williams-Sonoma

Sooo, on Monday, I ran a feature where I shared 3 gorgeous inspiration boards full of Christmas gift ideas. Did you see? My lovely side-kick Franky did one, and so did my other regular contributors Michelle and Erin.
Today, I thought I'd share my (only mildly extravagant) personal gift ideas along with those of the lovely Charlotte, who has recently been working with us on inspiration board production, and Jess too, who has written some really engaging debate posts of late.
Let's start with Jess, because that red lipstick is luring me in to the screen…
'1. The new Bruno Mars CD – I just love him, he reminds me of a modern day Sting! 2. Jo Malone candle. 3. Anyone who knows me knows I'm mad about pugs! Also, being a writer, I collect gorgeous notebooks – I adore this one, I think it would make me smile every day.
4. Chanel Coco Mademoiselle Perfume – my dream fragrance but never been able to justify the cost! 5. Cornish Sea Salt & Caramel Truffles – pure heaven, you'll never want Cadbury's again!
6. Marilyn Monroe 'My Story'. 7. Tallulah Love Dinner at the Ritz lingerie set. 8. Philosophy Pure Grace bubble bath or body scrub. 9. I have always coveted a pair of diamond earrings – the jewellers Michael Spiers where I bought my wedding ring provide the best service in the South West and always stock the finest jewellery (they serve great coffee too!), 10. And finally, A MAC make-up session to try all of the goodies, followed by one of their new Marilyn lipsticks.'
Thank you Jess! Loving your choice of a spot of Marilyn and red lippy. My kind of gal
So what does lovely Charlotte have on her list? Let's take a peek…
'I really love
everything about Christmas; the decorations, the deserts, the dancing, I start
looking forward to it from about September onwards! Of course Christmas
wouldn't be Christmas without a few gifts, I love buying presents and this is
the one time of year you can spoil your nearest and dearest with a few treats
that they wouldn't ordinarily buy for themselves. However, I find asking for
presents for myself a bit indulgent I much prefer a surprise however should
anyone ask here is what I have secretly been wishing for this year…
1 + 2. I spend a lot of
time (and money) on Amazon I could spend days looking at books, anything that
has an eye catching cover and the promise of inspiration finds itself on my
wish list. These two are currently featuring very highly. 3. When I'm at home I
always have a candle burning, I usually but mine from the supermarket so it
would be a nice to upgrade to one from Diptyque. 4. I have fallen back
in love with hot chocolate recently so I'm really hankering after some good
quality drinking chocolate, like this from Rococo Chocolates. Pretty packaging
is always a winner I use the boxes to store my jewels in. 5. I have
been searching for a gold clutch for my collection for quite sometime and this
version is just what I am after, I love the leather detailing and old gold
colour it would jazz up many a black dress.
6. We're hoping to
move next year and I have a file in my head marked "dream house" where I store
all the things I'd like to have around me. This light at the top of my list,
its so fun! 8. My
addiction to lipstick shows no sign of slowing; I have had my eye on this Schiap
pink Nars one since March, I would love to find it under my tree. 7. Jewels,
Jewels, Jewels – I love jewellery, yes I usually make my own but I would love
to receive something from Lulu Frost in my stocking.
The mix of modern and
vintage is perfect for all of us glamorous ladies. 9. Every girl
needs some shoes she can slip on and dance the night away in. These Topshop
beauties are just perfect – I have gone as far as trying them on and they seem
pretty comfy!'
Thank you Charlotte. I think I may well need those earrings in my life too, but then I have already got plenty on my Christmas wish list (Ahem….)
Er, yeeeahh, I know, it's a bit of a long list isn't it! I massively culled it too (seriously, there were about 50 here to begin with! Can I have a wish list part 3, please? I'm not even kidding).
1. This French Connection lace 'London' dress, because I adore lace and it's a little bit racy and I love a new frock at Christmas. 2. Having recently fallen out of love with my Mulberry Alexa (I just couldn't be doing with non adjustable straps!), this Hobbs Lanesley Bag – currently reduced from £210 to £126 is looking rather special. A Christmas present to myself maybe. Who knows? ;)
3. Molton Brown Blissful Templetree Bath and Shower Gel
– I have an obsession with this product. To me, bathtime is the
ultimate treat when it's full of blissful templetree bubbles. The divine
scent that wafts up from the warm waters includes frangipani with
jasmine and patchouli, it is an exotic and intoxicating scent. I
completely and utterly adore it.
4. I'm hugely in to blankets. I already have a little stash of them at
home, but I love to use them to accessorise my home with by throwing
them over my bed, my sofa and my shoulders during the winter months – so
this pretty crochet blanket via Knittingdays on Etsy would be so perfect. I love the colours too. Just call me Granny Beeforth. 5. This Hobbs leopard print Apsley Purse
ticks all my boxes, I genuinely need a new purse and I Love this bold
print! 6. The Diana F+ Dreamer camera in mint – I'm so keen to start
dabbling in some Lomography, and so I need this object in my life. When I'm not using it, I'll just look at it and smile at it.
7. These plain gold court shoes
to go with my new frock. I went off gold for years but am in love with
it all over again right now. I already have a pair of high heel glittery
gold shoes and open toed mid heel shoes. All I need now is some simple
courts and I'm fit for gold heels on any occasion – they would also look lovely with that there French Connection dress.
8. In writing for
my book recently, I started to develop a bit of an obsession with the
1960's so this limited edition vintage style print of Twiggy
is right up my street. I think I'd pop it in my new office to remind
myself of the reaction I'd get if I stay up too late blogging maybe? hehe!
9. Extending my new born obsessions
with anything mid-century vintage, I am absolutely in LOVE with the new
G Plan inspired range of furniture for John Lewis, so, Father Christmas, darling man, I know I"m asking for a lot here and it might not fit into my stocking, but heck, a girl can dream of beautiful new vintage inspired seating to fall in to after a long day of blogging, can't she…? 10. I also adore these Cream & Duck Egg Reproduction Tolix Stools via Uniche Furnishings – but would actually like to have a couple to use as little side tables in my new living area. Uniche says 'The skillfully aged paintwork gives these metal stools a look that would suggest they have been in use since the originals first appeared around Paris in 1934. A design classic.' Sounds perfect to me! They'd match the 2 gorgeous new seats I have recently ordered from the same website (which I'm a tad fixated with!)
11. I adore this Rules To Live By print by More Than Words Art. I'd put it up in the living area in our new house as a gentle reminder to all my family members of the positive little steps we can be taking daily that enrich our lives. 12. If I could have just one vintage vogue magazine to add to my growing collection, that would make me very happy!
13. Chiswick embroidered cushion via Laura Ashley
– I adore roses, my husband is a keen rose grower and I like the idea
of a touch of pretty traditional in our new home decor, so a couple of
these will do nicely, thank you Santa baby ;) 14. A Volpe and Volpe swan vase, via Lotte and Bloom, because I love them sooooo much and have been meaning to get one to match the one in my blog header for ages! I'll have one in pale gree, and one in white please
I've not asked for too much, have I?
So that pretty much leaves me to ask, what is on your christmas lists? Why not leave us a linky or two below so we can go and have our own nosey
Big shiny Christmas bauble love to you all,

It cost the same as other cleanser I use usually if you include the shipping fee in, otherwise it is cheaper. Plus, you can have ease of mind using it as it is pretty safe. The smell isn't strong too which I love, considering if it has a strong smell it is probably not very kids safe... It cleans properly too.. What more can I ask for?
Superb cleaner!

Samsung Unlocked S6 Edge & Note 5
In the 1970s, if someone said they didn't have a phone, you'd hear a record scratch and a plate drop and a woman's scream and the whole room would turn to stare. In 2017, that will be the same reaction when someone says they don't have a Samsung S6 Edge or Note 5. Except the record scratch will be on an mp3.

Screen Meltdowns:
Been There, Done That!
EL SEGUNDO, CA (Sept. 14, 1999) -- The stock market is correcting. My screens are plummeting. Time to sell?
Well, if you put your last penny in the market, maybe. Otherwise, we Foolish investors are in for the long haul. One investor, who I'll call John, is ready to bail. John told me, "The market's sinking, Y2K is coming. The start of that long overdue big bear market is upon us."
Is John right? There is no way of knowing. However, history is on the side of the Foolish, not those like John who get emotional with every turn of the market.
For example, let's look at the PEG4 semiannual screen for a January start. If John had invested in this screen in January 1987, and reinvested all his money every year, he would have turned $10,000 into $1.2 million dollars, not including fees and taxes at the end of 1998. In making this money, he would have been through plenty of times worse than the present.
His first year, John would been a victim of the 1987 market crash. Between October and December of 1987, John would have lost over 29% of his money. If he had started October with $10,000, he would have ended December with $7,100.
If he had given up then, he'd have about $12,000 today, including bank interest, instead of $1.2 million. Beginning in 1988, John's PEG investment would have moved right along for a while... until the summer of 1990. From July through September of 1990, John would have lost 25.3% of his money. It wouldn't be long until John's PEG investment would have taken another hit. From April through June of 1991, the PEG lost another 17.8%. If John had quit then, he would have been one sad camper because, even though he took that 18% hit during the spring, by December John would have finished the year with a 105.1% gain.
By now John might have been accustomed to these big hits while making great returns. However, he still would have faced more drops, including a 33% drop in the fall of '95 and a 15% drop last summer. But by stomaching the losses, John would have ended up way ahead.
Even when you hit paydirt (something possible only in our dreams) by selecting the best workshop screen for each time period, you still would have had to sit through three losses of more than 25% over the past 13 years.
If you look at the monthly returns, the drops can be even more scary. We don't have monthly returns for the PEG4 strategy, but we do for the Relative Strength-26 week strategy. Starting in 1987, an investment of $10,000 would have grown to over $750,000 by the end of 1998 without one losing year. However, as you can see below, in every year but two, an investor in this screen would have endured periods where the portfolio dropped, anywhere from 5% to 41%:
Oct'87 -41% May'88 -9% Oct-Nov'89 -12% Aug'90 -14% Jun'91 -11% Apr'92 -21% Oct'93 -12% Mar-Jun'94 -26% Dec'95 -5% Jun-Jul'96 -16% Oct-Dec'97 -18% May'98 -14%Despite these setbacks, an investor in this screen ended every year with a gain. But be honest, if you had been following the RS-26 strategy and had seen your portfolio drop by 26% between June and July in 1994, would you have had the guts to reinvest in that same strategy? How many times would you have jumped out of the market or out of this screen? If you bailed at the end of each of these periods, you would have lost every single time. Immediately after each of these periods, the screens started heading back up.
This is why Fools never invest money they will need in the short term. The losses can be dramatic and panic will set in. When investor's panic, they tend to sell at exactly the wrong time.

Ology soap bars
So I'm not sure this is really the best place for this post (if it belongs somewhere else, please let me know) but I have a shampoo bar/soap bar question and I figured someone could give me their input. I was at Walgreens the other day and picked up a 3-pack of Ology soap bars. I love shampoo bars and am currently using Bobeam, but I'd like to be able to use something I can find easily on the ground. Anyway, I am far from a curly chemist and I just wanted to see if anyone can tell me whether this soap bar would be OK to use in my hair? Here are the ingredients for the Lemongrass & Olive Oil type, which is what I bought:
Sodium Palmate , WATER (AQUA) , Sodium Palm Kernelate , glycerin , Natural Fragrance , Olea Europaea Fruit Oil (Olive) , titanium dioxide (CI 77891) , sodium chloride , tetrasodium edta , Tetrasodium Etidronate
The only ingredient that I'm a little concerned about is the sodium chloride. I'm thinking it might be drying, but it's pretty far down on the list so maybe it will be ok? Is there anything else in here that would be bad for hair? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!
Most soap bars are alkaline pH (7++), they damage both skin (~5.5) and hair (pH ~4.5), TBH the salt is the least of your worries.
"Another very important ingredient to avoid for long, curly hair especially is soaps. In the past, I have written an article cautioning users of soap to be careful, but basically concluding that it was probably okay to use soaps with an acidic rinse and lots of moisturizing agents. Based on the following information obtained from the research of Dr. Ali Syed (a hair care researcher who specializes in African and curly hair), I cannot in good conscience advocate use of any soap products on curly hair.
Soap molecules are salts of fatty acids found in plants and animal fats. They are somewhat alkaline and cause the hair to swell and the cuticle to raise up away from the surface of the hair shaft. These molecules are then able to penetrate through the cuticle and into the CMC where they neutralize the fatty acids in the lipid layer, rendering them water soluble. The fatty acids are then rinsed away in the shower and are gone forever. Use of soap to cleanse ones hair, especially long curly hair, seems to be a really effective way of permanently destroying the cuticle layer and making the hair very highly porous. This is an example of why natural may not always be superior. It is no surprise that researchers have invested years and many millions (billions) of dollars to develop more gentle cleansers for our hair."
An Indepth Look at Porosity | Curly Nikki | Natural Hair Styles and Natural Hair Care
Thanks Firefox, I did read that article a while back too. But I only use the soap bars once a week and I follow with an ACV rinse to neutralize the PH. I'm low porosity already and I haven't noticed any negative effects on my hair or changes in my porosity since I started using them over a year ago. I'll do a little more research on the ingredients and see what I come up with :read2:
Thanks again!
If you want to use something 'soapy' consider soap nuts or soap wort, these are acidic truly natural cleansers humans have been using since the stone age. Bar soap was invented to degrease household items and fabrics, not delicate skin.

I got a used K&N drop-in last night in the mail, and cleaned it last night...let it dry overnight.
I oiled it this morning before I got in the shower. Let it soak for about 30 min while I got ready and made lunch etc.
Put it in my car, everything seemed fine. I gunned it as I pulled out of my apt. complex and got a CEL.
After I got to work, I checked on the K&N, and pulled it out...there was a LOT of moisture. I shook it, and droplets came flying out.
Luckily I still had my stock air filter in the car. I put it back in and started it up and still had a CEL.
Is this really going to screw $h1t up?

PTS Remote start from OEM Fob
Well just wanted to let everyone know that I have installed a remote start in my Titanium with push to start that works off the factory key fob.
The installation does not require any additional keys or dealer scan tools. Although I do this for a living, I did install this (soldering all wires) in under 1 hour.
Here is the link to the hardware required to do it all.
It is currently raining so this is what I have to show for now, I will try to make a better video showing all the install tomorrow if I have a chance.
That looks pretty cool... you don't need some cheesy extra remote to use it.
nope, you can use the factory remote, just hold lock for 3 seconds and away it goes.
thats awesome, nice work [thumb]
The best part is that the overall cost on a retail side is 100$ for the parts. The downside is that you do need their programmer to do the installation.
That is awesome!!! Looks like all the wiring is at/behind glove box? Did you just tap into the wires or actually cut and solder everything?
And yes all the wiring is behind the glove box.
I would do this if I had the IA keyless ignition.
What kind of distance can you get? At work I'm about 500' from the car
just the distance from the oem fob, but you can order a range extender kit from them but it has its own fob and separate antenna.

The packaged short break is going out of fashion. You have only to look at the offerings of tour operators such as Bridge Travel or Travelscene to notice that companies which once bundled together a flight, hotel and transfers for one price are unpackaging them and offering just accommodation.
That's because millions of travellers are grabbing cheap air tickets from the no-frills airlines and then thinking, 'Where am I going to stay?' You can still ask a tour operator to book a room for you, but sometimes what you really want is a personal recommendation.
Here we offer suggestions for putting together your own European short break this summer - along with a few UK options for those who don't want to fly.

Kerman and Clinton
The Department of Psychiatry would like to announce the recruitment of two new faculty scientists, Sarah Clinton, Ph.D. and Ilan Kerman, M.D., Ph.D. Drs. Clinton and Kerman are married with one daughter and are currently at the University of Michigan and will be starting their independent research careers at UAB in January of 2011. Both have been awarded highly competitive and prestigious K99/R00 grants from the National Institutes of Health (NIH), and both plan to convert to the R00 phase of these awards when they join us next year.
Dr. Clinton received her undergraduate training at the University of Pittsburgh, and earned her Ph.D. in Neuroscience at the University of Michigan. Both her undergraduate and graduate work focused on neurochemical and neuroanatomical abnormalities related to the pathophysiology of schizophrenia. Dr. Clinton continued at the University of Michigan as a postdoctoral fellow and subsequently as a Research Investigator, working in the laboratory of Dr. Huda Akil, where she helped to develop a novel animal model of comorbid anxiety and depression. Using this model, she utilizes molecular, neuroanatomical, and behavioral approaches to examine how perturbed brain development may contribute to emotional dysfunction later in life. Unraveling such complicated genetic, neurobiological, and environmental interactions in rodents will directly impact the understanding of the developmental neurobiology of disorders such as anxiety and depression.
Dr. Kerman completed his undergraduate education at New York University (B.A. in Biology). He then went on to earn a Ph.D. in Neuroscience and an M.D. from the University of Pittsburgh. As part of his graduate work he studied the role of the vestibular system in cardiovascular regulation. Disturbances in this system may contribute to a variety of conditions, including orthostatic intolerance, physiological disturbances that accompany space flight, as well as physical symptoms of agoraphobia. He completed his postdoctoral training at the University of Michigan under the mentorship of Dr. Stanley J. Watson, and is currently a Research Investigator in the Molecular and Behavioral Neuroscience Institute at the University of Michigan. His research aims at understanding the organization of neural circuits that regulate homeostasis (maintenance of a stable internal environment), how such circuits interact with brain monoamine systems (i.e. serotonin and norepinephrine), and how these functional brain circuits are impacted by stress. These studies contribute to the understanding of pathophysiologic mechanisms that underlie disorders such as major depression, anxiety, and bipolar disorder. His research has been funded by the NIH, the National Alliance for Research on Schizophrenia and Depression (NARSAD), NASA, Department of Energy, and the University of Michigan Depression Center.
Please join us in welcoming them and their daughter Dara, to the Department of Psychiatry and the entire Neuroscience community here at UAB. Their research will allow the Department of Psychiatry to continue its goal of conducting innovative research to improve patient care for the mentally ill.
Cheryl McCullumsmith places in UAB Health System 2010 Innovation Awards for the "Transitional Psychiatric Clinic"
Cheryl McCullumsmith, MD, PhD, Assistant Professor and director of the Consult-Liaison Division in the UAB Department of Psychiatry, has won third place in the impact category of the UAB Health System 2010 Innovation Awards for the "Transitional Psychiatric Clinic" (TPC). This clinic provides urgent follow-up for patients presenting in crisis to the emergency room who have no ability to access immediate psychiatric care. The clinic represents a unique partnership with a community organization and allows many patients to remain in the community and out of the hospital while receiving excellent psychiatric care.
Dr. McCullumsmith is expanding research into the unique needs of patients presenting to the emergency room in several venues. First, she is collaborating with other UAB psychiatry faculty to study and treat patients with suicidal ideation. The aim of this study is to approach suicidal thoughts as a reversible, treatable disorder of thought process. This project will examine the role of disordered thought processes and impulsivity in suicidal thinking, both with structured neuropsychological assessments and with functional MRI scans. Further, patients will be treated short term – a five day course-with medication aimed at helping the disordered thought process. Patients will be reassessed after this intervention. The project provides a completely novel approach to assessing and treating suicidal patients. The project further has the potential to help develop imaging markers of increased suicidal liability.
A second venue of research and clinical care development in the emergency room is to provide more comprehensive screening and brief motivational interventions for patients in the emergency room with substance use disorders. This project will help to identify individuals with unrecognized alcohol and substance use disorders and to help motivate them to get treatment, as well as providing an improved network of providers of care for substance use disorders. This project is done in collaboration with the department of emergency medicine, trauma surgery and UAB's addiction recovery program.
Dr. McCullumsmith is a graduate of the University Of Michigan School of Medicine where she also completed her residency. She is a model clinician through her dedication and compassion for the mentally ill. Her hard work is a great example of the innovative work that is being developed and implemented here in the UAB Department of Psychiatry.
UAB's New Magnetic Therapy for Depression Succeeds Where Drugs Fail
BIRMINGHAM, AL – The University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB) is the first medical provider in the state to offer a new, cutting-edge treatment for depression. Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation, or rTMS, is the first and only device of its kind to be cleared for the treatment of depression by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. To learn more about the rTMS program, visit: UAB Department of Psychiatry rTMS Depression Treatment Program, Fox 6 News Interview with Dr. Redwine, & UAB Media Relations Interview
Kinney Appointed Professor Emeritus
The University of Alabama System Board of Trustees appointed F. Cleveland Kinney, Ph.D., M.D., Professor Emeritus of Psychiatry in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Neurobiology in the UAB School of Medicine at its meeting Sept. 17, 2010. Kinney earned his doctorate in anatomy in 1976 and medical degree in 1985, both from UAB. Kinney served for more than a decade as director of the Division of Geriatric Psychiatry and also served as interim chair of the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Neurobiology from 2001 to 2006.
Psychiatry Teams Up with Beijing Anding Hospital to Establish Exchange Program
The UAB Department of Psychiatry is pleased to announce that it has launched a scholar exchange program with Beijing Anding Hospital, a mental health facility affiliated with the Capital Medical University, Beijing, China. The hospital has 800 in-patient beds and large out-patient clinic, including over 500 physicians and nurses. This exchange program allows Chinese Psychiatrists in their earlier professional careers to come abroad to receive advanced training in psychiatric and psychological treatment, learning new treatment concepts, and are exposed to cutting-edge psychiatric research in psychiatry. It will also create opportunities for clinicians and researchers in the UAB Department of Psychiatry to visit Anding Hospital in Beijing and explore the large patient population, treatment strategies successfully used in developing countries, and potential research collaborations. In the phase 1 plan, a junior psychiatrist from Anding Hospital is scheduled to receive 6-month clinical training in the UAB Department of Psychiatry, and this plan is now successfully in place. Dr. Meng Fan, M.D., the first exchange scholar from Anding Hospital, has arrived to Birmingham in April and has begun her 6-month training. She will have the opportunity to observe in-patient service, geriatric psychiatry, consult/emergency psychiatry, clinical research, as well as attending Psychiatry grand rounds and other Psychiatry resident didactics. The Department of Psychiatry plans to use this exchange program to foster young psychiatrists and researchers of both countries to broaden their knowledge in mental health and provide better psychiatric services to the some 20% population in the world who suffer from severe mental illnesses.

A few days ago, Stanford Football held its open scrimmage under another obscenely gorgeous August Saturday on The Farm. While many Cardinalmaniacs checked out the proceedings from the rails, a few Stanford legends took it all in from the sidelines. Among that group was former Cardinal WR Ed McCaffrey, who went on to a very productive pro career, winning three Super Bowl rings along the way.
I can only imagine some of the things that must have been going through McCaffrey's mind as he watched the scene unfold in front of him. Those practice fields he was standing on were familiar, but everything else surrounding them—the Arrillaga Family Sports Center, Stanford Stadium 2.0, more than just a dozen or so half-interested onlookers checking out the practice—must have been almost alien to him. Clearly, this is not Christian McCaffrey's daddy's Stanford football.
It has been 24 years since Ed McCaffrey last suited up for the Cardinal, but you don't have to go back that far to see how much has changed around Stanford football. In October 2005, I left the Bay Area. In March 2014, I returned. How far this program has come in between makes for one of the best stories in college football.
The most apparent change is, well, the players themselves. I mean, have you seen the kids who play for Stanford now? They're speedy. The offensive linemen are nasty. And not only are they growing freshmen bigger these days, those bigger, speedier, and nastier freshmen are coming to The Farm.
New starting linebacker Blake Martinez is one of those youngsters. The hard-hitting junior spent time getting to know the Stanford media on Tuesday, and he remembered that when he first stepped on campus as a freshman, he weighed 240 pounds.
240-pound freshman linebackers? At Stanford? My jaw dropped when Martinez said that. GoStanford.com's Mark Soltau probably heard me utter something under my breath that would have broken one of the Commandments, too.
Stanford football passes the eye test. They look good stepping off the bus. The first time I noticed it was when the Card traveled to Notre Dame in 2010, and I watched the team literally step off the bus. Everything just felt different.
Some of it was obvious—look at the size of these kids!—but much of it was subtle. There was a confidence that oozed from the players and coaches, a "we-can-beat-anybody" feeling that was unlike anything I'd noticed before from a Stanford squad football squad. Even the fans who where there to greet the team upon arrival in South Bend seemed to feel it, too.
I knew right then that Stanford football had passed a threshold of sorts. 47 months after that chilly, cloudy day in South Bend, the Cardinal can truly boast a big-time college football program. But not only does it look the part, it plays the part, too.
The stadium has most certainly changed. I stumbled onto the Pac-12 Network's replay of Stanford-Washington 1982 a couple weeks ago, and it was almost shocking to see how the old girl looked. A lot of memories in that place. And I don't really miss it one bit. Stanford Stadium may no longer be the most state-of-the-art football stadium in the Bay Area, but it's still light years from the old version.
The changes aren't limited to Stanford football. The biggest subplot for the college football season ahead is a change that many fans felt long overdue: the expiration of the BCS, and the dawn of the College Football Playoff. Finally, the sport will decide its champion in the purest manner possible.
And while going to Pasadena on January 1 is always special, this year it will be even more so, as the Rose Bowl hosts one of the semifinal games. How cool would it be to see the Card there for a third straight year?
Oh, and instant replay has changed things in college football, too. It certainly would have produced a different outcome had a replay crew been on hand the last time Stanford hosted UC Davis. That was a pick by Nick Sanchez, I just know it.
That doesn't mean that everything about Stanford football has become completely alien to the product it was just nine years ago. Some things never change, like the tailgate scene. Or the band.
Something else that apparently hasn't changed is Stanford fans' ongoing unhappiness with the kickoff times. Early kickoffs interfere with other stuff, while late kickoffs are too late. And Friday games are completely out of the question.
Look, I'm not a fan of this year's schedule, either. And, as I've mentioned before, if you want to complain that some kickoff times aren't set until six days before the game, I will fight that fight with you. But the funky schedule means television coverage, and television coverage means money. That's just how it works in college football today.
It's all part of the evolution of things. Fortunately, Stanford football has totally morphed into something that is completely unrecognizable to its 2005 self. Big, speedy, nasty football players at all positions. A student section that rocks the house. A head coach who seems in tune with his players. A national profile. And a stadium that's worthy of housing it all.
This isn't your daddy's Stanford football. Heck, this isn't even your Palm Treo's Stanford football. And I can't wait to see where it goes from here.

So, as mentioned above, I am back in the Bay Area. Since March, I have been hosting evening sports talk shows and Oakland A's pregame & postgame shows on San Francisco's 95.7 The Game!
It has been a blast so far (the A's have certainly helped see to that), and it has been a dream come true to finally return to the best place on Earth. It was also pretty cool to throw away my snow shovel, too. Oh, did I mention that "the fiancée" in last year's Corners will henceforth be known as "the wife"?
I do plan on talking a lot of college sports during my talk show, but I will also say that it needs to be a two-way discussion. So, when I talk Stanford and college football, I look forward to taking as many of your phone calls, texts, and tweets as possible along the way!
I look forward to spending a lot of time on The Farm again, seeing a lot of old friends, crashing some of your tailgates, and talking Stanford with you on the airwaves.

Yes, I know the Pac-12 is loaded with quality quarterbacks, almost literally from top to bottom. But to me, this conference will be won by the team that has the defensive depth and the open-field tackling ability to slow down all these go-go offenses. Those two things have decided the conference for years, and I don't expect that trend to stop this season…
Oregon No. 1 in the Pac-12 North, and Stanford No. 2? Look, I can easily see the Card representing the division in the Pac-12 Championship Game. But as of this moment, that order still seems about right…
So Sandy Barbour is now the athletic director at Penn State, eh? Two things are more important than anything else in State College: football and fundraising. Barbour didn't exactly have the best track record in either of those areas at cal, did she? Good luck, Sandy, I suspect you're going to need it…
Maybe I'm missing something. But why do I not quite believe that UCLA can make The Leap just yet?
What? Connor Halliday is back for the Cougars? I thought Trent Murphy killed him last year in Seattle…
Not a Pac-12 thought, but… for $1.3 billion, you can build a stadium with the most opulent club lounges and luxury suites in sports, put a museum on the premises, install a rooftop garden on the suite tower, lock up huge events like the Super Bowl, WrestleMania and the NHL's outdoor series, even add a cobbler station in the press box dining area…but you can't put down a suitable playing field? It's almost like 49ers football itself is an afterthought at Levi's Stadium…

Once again this season, I'll be putting my reputation on the line every week with my Pac-12 picks. Well, not this week, since I'll only be picking conference games. And not next week either, since U$C-Stanford is the only conference matchup and I don't pick Stanford games. See you in two weeks for Arizona State-Colorado, then!
Last year: 35-10 (straight-up), 24-21 (ATS).
