Left Photo: 2019 Mazda CX-5 shown above with optional equipment.
Nowadays, it can be tough to find an SUV that seems to entirely fit the bill, but we've struck gold here at DeMontrond Mazda! The 2019 Mazda CX-5 is the complete package with its gorgeous exterior design, astonishing performance specs, and advanced set of safety features. We know you'll want to test drive it for yourself, so join us soon to finally understand what the fuss is all about.
It would be an understatement to say that the Mazda CX-5 is a beautiful vehicle. Following Mazda's minimalist design scheme, its most important features boldly come to the forefront. You'll easily notice the elegant, diamond-shaped grille which is embossed with the Mazda logo. This is flanked by standard LED headlights which include daytime running lights and automatic headlights. Although this ride comes standard with 17-inch wheels, you can have all the way up to 19-inch ones on the Signature trim level. This upgrade will also garner you details such as a Signature badge, LED combination taillights, and automatic rain-sensing variable-intermittent windshield wipers. When you pull up to your date's house in this ride, they'll be speechless all the way to the Saltgrass Steak House.
The sleek exterior of the 2019 Mazda CX-5 acts as the harbinger of what lies beneath this ride's sheet metal. Even standard, you'll have 187 horsepower and 186 lb.-ft. of torque at your command thanks to the 2.5L DOHC 16-valve 4-cylinder engine with Cylinder Deactivation. This technology helps equip you with a 25/31 MPG city/hwy1 fuel economy. If you so choose, you can further increase your muscle by selecting the available 2.5T Dynamic Pressure Turbo DOHC 16-valve 4-cylinder engine. This will give you 250 horsepower and 310 lb.-ft. of torque, all while still operating at 22/27 MPG city/hwy1. This powertrain also comes standard with Mazda's advanced i-ACTIV® AWD system.
Powerful performance comes second to perhaps only one thing—your wellbeing. Luckily, the engineers at Mazda know this and have souped up your ride with a number of protective features. Not only will you have standard front airbags2 as well as side-impact air curtains2 with rollover protection, but you'll be protected by this ride's ring-structure unibody frame with side-impact door beams. Hopefully, none of these systems will ever be necessary thanks to the i-ACTIVSENSE® safety features, which do their best to prevent harmful situations from occurring. For example, the Advanced Smart City Brake Support system with Pedestrian Detection3 can sense things in front of you and even attempt to slow you if you're unable to react in time.
The 2019 Mazda CX-5 for sale near Galena Park, TX, is truly a feat of engineering! To see it at DeMontrond Mazda, just make the quick trip to 20101 Gulf Freeway in Webster, TX. We'll see you soon.

"Mirza wasn't that helpful"
" I initially spent about 3 hours with Josue a few days prior but came back to show my dad and husband the car. I was set on getting the Mazda 3 but when I came back a few days after, Mirza was there. It was no big deal and I asked for Josue. He said he would get him and my husband, dad, and I can wait on the lot. We spent about 15-20 mins just standing there. I did not even get to ask for keys for the car. We should have walked in but he did say he would be right back. My dad noticed that other people were standing around inside. The only reason why I rated the dealership so high is because of my initial contact with Josue. I needed the car that day so we ended up going to a different dealership and buying a car. "
"My girlfriend and I were looking for a new Mazda CX-5 for..."
" My girlfriend and I were looking for a new Mazda CX-5 for her, and currently living in the DFW area, we looked at the dealers in the area. Unfortunately some of the games they played with us really turned us off. I figured why not look in Houston, and I discovered Deemontrond Mazda. That's when I contacted them about a particular CX-5, and I was connected with the friendliest, most knowledgeable salesman I've ever done business with: Kenny Froisy. He instantly gave me a transparent price quote (most competitive price too) that broke down the price. We agreed on the price online, and I drove up from DFW to meet with him at opening. They honored all their price quotes, were extremely friendly and knowledgeable, and took care of us quickly and efficiently. I have never had a better experience with a dealership than I have had with Kenny and the Demontrond Mazda staff. I highly recommend everyone (especially in the DFW area!) to come on down and buy your next Mazda with them. "

"Very comfortable purchase experience"
" Josue was very knowledgeable about the all vehicle models which helped us to choose the right one for us. I felt he was being honest and forthright. Did not pressure us into walking out with a car. He also went through all of the technical features of the car and helped us personalize them before we left. I really appreciate that. It would have taken me much longer to read the manual and figure it out on my own. Thanks Josue! "
" Didn't buy a car this time but great customer service. They all gave you space and no typical salesman pressure. When ready to buy, for sure will be going to them. "
"Josue was a fantastic sales associate. He was very..."
" Josue was a fantastic sales associate. He was very knowledgable about the vehicles, thorough with his explanations of every detail about the Mazda 6, So happy with my beautiful ride. "
" Always have a good experience here. Kenny helped sell me my beautiful car 😍 he was awesome and straightforward! Really appreciate the great service! "
" Josue is the best salesman at DeMontromd Mazda. He was knowledgable about all aspect of the car, friendly, and overall welcoming to new customers and those who want to learn more about Mazda. I would definitely recommend going there and asking for him. "
"Purchasing made convenient"
" Mirza made the purchasing process very easy. He was very helpful in pointing out the best features of the CX-5 that will be most useful to us. He was always ready to answer any questions or accommodate any requests we had regarding setting up some of the features of the CX-5 and giving us more time to unload our trade-in car. Chris Danzell was also helpful on the phone during our initial inquiry on pricing. Kshitij was very efficient in getting all the paperwork completed and made it convenient to close our loan with a local credit union. "
" While I really appreciate the friendly staff and receiving a discount for maintenance since we bought my Mazda at this location, I'm frustrated that my tire pressure indicator turned on a little less than 2 hours after picking up my car. Our pressure gauge showed that all the tires were off by 6-9 psi, despite being told they were checked as part of the maintenance package that I paid for. Easy to fix myself with adding air at a station, but I'm just hoping nothing else was overlooked. I'll be calling in the morning to let the service team know. "
" I bought a new Mazda today with Kenny. He was awesome, no pressure, got me the right price and I wasn't there for hours going back and forth and waiting. Kenny is your Man 😎 "
" My wife and I purchased a new MX-5 here. To be honest we had a few issues during the process including some personal duress at home. Kenny and his management went out of the way to resolve the issues and make us very happy customers of Demontrond and huge fans of Kenny and his integrity. This is definitely the only place to purchase your Mazda new or used. I am in sales (High computer systems) and I can without a doubt that Kenny is a first class individual. "
"We had a great experience"
" Mirza Beg was awesome. He treated my sister and I like equals and accommodated us in every way he could. Buying a used car could not have been a better experience with this office and the employees. "

New Englanders' "Appeal to Heaven"
Paul Lunt, lieutenant of a company from Newburyport at the siege of Boston, wrote in his diary for 18 July 1775:
This morning a Manifesto from the Grand Continental Congress was read by the Rev. Mr. Leonard, chaplain to the Connecticut forces upon Prospect Hill in Charlestown, to those troops encamped upon and near said hill.In his essay on the life of the Honorable Major-General Israel Putnam, former aide David Humphreys later described this flag as:
Our standard was presented in the midst of the regiments with this inscription upon it, "Appeal to Heaven;" after which Mr. Leonard made a short prayer, and then were dismissed by the discharge of a cannon, three cheers, and a war whoop by the Indians.
the new Standard, lately sent from Connecticut. . . .By the fall, other New England units had adopted this flag, or at least the English motto on it. On 20 Oct 1775, Gen. George Washington's military secretary, Joseph Reed (shown above, courtesy of the U.S. Army's Center for Military History), wrote to the colonels who were in Beverly arming schooners to attack British supply ships with this instruction:
On one side was inscribed in large letters, of Gold "An Appeal To Heaven," and on the other were delineated the armorial bearings of Connecticut, which without supporters or crest, consist unostentatiously of three Vines: with this motto, "Qui transtulit, sustinet" [He who transplants, sustains]
Please to fix upon some particular color for a flag, and a signal by which our vessels may know one another. What do you think of a flag with a white ground, a tree in the middle, the motto "Appeal to Heaven"? This is the flag of our floating batteries.The ships those men were equipping did adopt that flag. We know that from sources in London reporting on the capture of one such ship, the brig Washington, out of Plymouth. The descriptions were:
- Sir Hugh Palliser to the Earl of Sandwich, First Lord of the Admiralty, 6 January 1776: "Captain Medows has brought the American vessel's colours, it is a white field with a green pine tree in the middle: the motto, Appeal to Heaven."
- London Chronicle: "In the Admiralty office is the flag of a provincial privateer. The field is white bunting; on the middle is a green pine-tree, and upon the opposite side is the motto, 'Appeal to Heaven.'"
- Almon's Remembrancer, item dated 6 Jan 1776: "Captain Meadows has likewise brought her colours, which are a pale green palm-tree, upon a white field, with this motto, 'We appeal to heaven.'"
No actual period examples of this flag survive, to my knowledge. All the designs in flag books are guesses at what they looked like.

No fee usually required
You will not have to pay a fee to access your personal data (or to exercise any of the other rights). However, we may charge a reasonable fee if your request is clearly unfounded, repetitive or excessive. Alternatively, we may refuse to comply with your request in these circumstances.

SUNY Canton Unveils New Four-Year Applied Psychology Degree
The new program will begin for the Fall 2012 semester and students can apply for admission immediately.
SUNY Canton's newest Bachelor of Science degree will prepare students for direct employment in human services fields and will address the shortage of well-trained professional applicants for area organizations.
The College recently received approval from the State University of New York and the State Education Department to begin offering a new applied psychology program for the Fall 2012 semester.
"Psychology is one of the most popular majors for entering freshmen," said SUNY Canton President Joseph L. Kennedy. "We've created our own version of the popular program by designing a degree that allows students to graduate and immediately start their chosen careers. Adapting career-driven educational strategies are really what we do best at SUNY Canton."
The addition of this program will have an impact locally, concurrent with SUNY's system wide plans to target growth most needed most in regional economies and by providing a strong workforce.
"I thank both SUNY Administration and Senator Patty Ritchie for backing this program," Kennedy added. "Their wisdom will help us supply a new contingent of professionals to address the shortage of qualified employees at our area agencies."
According to the U.S. Department of Labor Bureau of Labor Statistics employment is projected to grow faster than the average for all occupations, and about 54 percent of jobs are in healthcare and social assistance industries.
The College has received letters of support expressing interest in hiring graduates from the program from area agencies including St. Lawrence NYSARC; United Helpers, Inc.; Cerebral Palsy of Northern New York; and area autism advocacy groups.
"We need employees with a solid educational background in applied behavioral analysis," said Daphne A. Pickert, the CEO and executive director of St. Lawrence NYSARC. "We are very grateful SUNY Canton will be able to provide graduates with those qualities."
Pickert was involved in developing the program with both Kennedy and SUNY Canton faculty members to ensure students would graduate with the most employable skills.
"Applied psychology will be the first degree with a technological application of the social sciences at SUNY Canton," said Carli C. Schiffner, SUNY Canton provost and vice president for academic affairs. "It will readily augment our current courses in law enforcement leadership, business, criminal investigation, nursing, and health services management, among other programs."
Students entering the program should have an interest in learning about how to work with people, including in special needs settings, according to Professor Emeritus John T. Nixon, Ph.D., the lead faculty member in the applied psychology program.
"We will emphasize the ability to understand the needs of clients and consumers in a variety of human services fields," Nixon said. "In these settings, employees need counseling skills and need to recognize intervention and adaptive strategies."
Courses in the program include developmental psychology, abnormal psychology, intervention strategies in human services, and professional ethics courses. "We are going to get students out into the field as quickly as possible through internships and in-class placements," Nixon said.
Internships with area social service agencies will be especially beneficial for students looking to gain employment locally. The College has seen numerous students hired through their credit-bearing internships with partnering agencies and companies in other four-year degree programs.
The program consists primarily of face-to-face courses, but students can fulfill some of their general education requirements through SUNY Canton OnLine.
Applied psychology joins the College's newest four-year programs including veterinary technology, sports management, health and fitness promotion, and several new offerings in the engineering technology curricula. The program is the sixth bachelor's degree available through the College's School of Business and Liberal Arts and the second Bachelor of Science degree at SUNY Canton.
More information about the new major is available at: http://www.canton.edu/business/psyc/
To apply for the program, contact SUNY Canton Admissions by phone, 315-386-7123 (800-388-7123), or email email@example.com.

Derwent World Patents Index® (DWPISM)
and Derwent Markush Resource (DWPIM)
The Derwent World Patents Index (files WPINDEX/ WPIDS/WPIX) is a comprehensive value-added database of worldwide patents covering all areas of technology. The intellectual value of DWPI is the result of a thorough editorial process of classification, abstracting, and indexing. Original titles and abstracts are rewritten to reveal the actual invention and highlight the main uses and advantages of the technology.
Content and coverage
The DWPISM database enables professionals to more easily research and understand the world's innovations through editorially curated, English-language abstracting and indexing of patent documents from 48 patent issuing authorities worldwide and two literary sources, including patent data from Asia-Pacific, Europe, the Middle East and North and South America. DWPI contains more than 23 million unique inventions (basic records/patent families) covering over 50 million patent documents and is used globally by thousands of organizations and 40 patent offices, making it the world's most trusted and authoritative patent database. The file contains more than 23.1 million documents with more than 15.3 million images back to 1963 and is updated every 3-4 days.
DWPI's reliable and enhanced patent data contains many key features that distinguish it as the most trusted source of patent research information available. Patent records contain descriptive titles, abstracts summarizing an invention's novelty using industry terminology, and corrections to important bibliographic information, including misspelled assignee and inventor names, erroneous priority data, missing classification codes and more. An expertly trained staff of several hundred editors applies over 5,000 rules to normalize, standardize, correct and enhance patent records resulting in approximately 6,000 corrections each week.
DWPI also features unique coding and indexing systems that are intellectually and consistently applied across all patent authorities and technologies allowing for precise, relevant and accurate retrieval of information. The intensive editorial process and quality checks result in authoritative and accurate patent data giving users insights that might otherwise be missed.
- high-quality bibliographic information which summarizes all publication details for a particular invention
- enhanced Derwent titles and patent-focused abstracts
- DWPI-specific coding and deep indexing for chemical patents
- full coverage of the International Patent Classification (IPC 8)
- original patent titles, abstracts, and main claim text
The Derwent Markush Resource database (DWPIM) on STN
The inclusion of chemical Markush structures in patent searches is decisive for assessing the patentability of a substance or substance class. The Derwent Markush Resource database is fully integrated in the STN search environment for chemical (structure) databases with an easy to use modern interface. For the first time, patent information professionals are able to conduct all of their chemical structure and Markush searches on a single platform using the most important chemical structure databases including CAS Registry, MARPAT, Reaxysfile, Derwent Chemical Resource and Derwent Markush Resource. Other benefits of Derwent Markush Resource on STN include the possibility to combine structure and text terms and to apply sophisticated search parameters to perform reliable high precision searches. Various structure displays options allow for a significantly accelerated evaluation of search results.
The database is available on STNext.
Numeric Property Search Feature – exclusively on STN!
To add further value to this prestigious database on STN International, FIZ Karlsruhe has developed a unique new feature that allows for numeric property searching in the English text of all documents (enhanced title, abstracts, claims). That comprises
- 55 physical and chemical properties
- 1,800 spelling variants of units recognized
- Automatic unit conversion: A search in Kelvin will also generate hits with respective values in degrees Celsius or Fahrenheit.
- Proximity searching with numeric properties and keywords
- Flexible data input (ranges, tolerances, exact values)
The Derwent Value-Add for Chemical Patents
DWPI Chemistry Resource (DCR) provides structure based access to specific chemical compounds back to 1999 for all users of DWPI. Subscribers can also benefit from
- Fragmentation coding providing access to specific and Markush structures back to 1963
- Polymer Indexing available for all polymer-related patents back to 1966
- Manual Codes used in the chemical, pharmaceutical and agrochemical area to classify significant parts of the invention and its commercial application, back to 1963.
The Derwent Value-Add for Engineering Patents
Manual Codes are used for engineering patents to classify the novel technical aspects of an invention as well as its commercial application, back to 1980.
Your Benefit
- more comprehensive retrieval and easier relevance checking from value-added text data
- more reliable technology searching with DWPI deep indexing
- great variety of search options for more focused searches
- efficient patent analysis from highly standardized bibliographic data

Pre-Game Odds and Ends
I suppose throwing up all the odds and ends that have accumulated since the last one is a better use of my time than twiddling my thumbs, aka waiting for the stupid West Coast Time game to get on its way (two more freaking hours). Here we go…
1. After Henry Abbott of Truehoop called the Jazz "f–ing amazing," Locke had him on his show. In case you didn't catch it, Abbott said that using Synergy (a video service that queues up video based on criteria entered, e.g. every time X player touched the ball in X game, X player in pick-and-rolls, X player's last 250 possessions, etc.; the service is marketed to NBA teams and costs $50,000/year), you could make a case for Andrei as MVP.
"If you watch Andrei Kirilenko on Synergy, you can make a case for him as MVP. When he's on, it's amazing. He's always everywhere, doing everything. I'm such a big fan of Andrei Kirilenko. I love all those players who are 100% of the time, even when the play is far from them, they're trying to do something to gain an advantage. He's just one of those guys who's always trying something." — Henry Abbott
2. Basketbawful recently published a number of reader-submitted worst possible (and ESPN Trade Machine-OK'ed), aka entirely hilarious, trades, and two of them involved Jazzmen.
The first, by Mike T., is aimed at sending players to fan bases/cities that hate them: "Boozer to Cleveland, Shaq to Phoenix, Amar'eee to San Antonio and Ginobili to Phoenix…In the process I was also able to send 3 white guys to Utah. I was amazed that this was successful."
Crabs (+5 wins) receive: Boozer and Okur
Jazz (-11 wins) receive: Bonner, Nash, Robin Lopez
Suns (-6 wins) receive: Shaq, Ginobili
Spurs (-7 wins) receive: Amar""'e
The second, by Alex, is aimed at making the Pacers even more All-American white while making them 10 wins worse (it appears he doesn't know the Koof is American):
Pacers (-27 wins) receive: Korver, Ridnour, Alexander, Gadzuric, and four trade exceptions
Bucks (+3 wins) receive: Ford, Granger, Price, Koufos
Jazz (+4 wins) receive: Solomon Jones, Dahntay Jones, Dorell Wright, Hibbert, Cook
Heat (-2 wins) receive: Rush, Watson, Head
3. Those of us that watch games with the sound on know that Booner's brain is a hotbed of unintentional comedy, and his occasional entries on utahjazz.com's broadcaster blog are of the same high comedic caliber. The best parts:
I love New York and Boston has the best sea food so Boler, Travis and i went to a no name restaurant, no the name was no name oh hell I'll fiqure it out; Hot Rod turned me on to it so now you understand. I had sea food chowder, Boler and Travis stuff there face as well, then we were off to Philadelphia where they have a crack in a bell they won't fix.
It's ben a few weeks since I blogged – I had a virus on my computer, and my way of getting rid of a virus would be to take some anabolic – But that doesn't work, so it cost me a few hundred bucks, pissed me off since I'm not into computers controlling my life.
Went to the doctor last week to get the glove … is there a more intimidating sound than when the doc snaps on the glove? You feel violated but know it's nessesary.
I didn't want a new years resolution but i have been spending a lot of time at the gym, trying to get the body I had twenty year ago … "yea right". My mind is trying to fool my body and it's not working. Beginning to wonder why anyone would torture and beat them self up to stay in shape, hell let yourself go, go get a cheeseburger and fries, sit on the couch and watch yourself balloon two or three sizes. At least you can get a new wardrobe … XXXL …. wow, no thank you.
4. I can't remember where I read this or who said it, but it bears repeating: "Ronnie Price doesn't believe in gravity."
5. Finally, Hot Rod sure has had a lot of hairsytles over the years:


text:
Each team consists of 11 players, one of whom is the goalkeeper. A minimum of eight qualified players must be on the field to start a game. (Exception: for age groups Grade 12 and older, a minimum of seven qualified players is sufficient to begin a game.) If there are fewer than seven players on the field for a team, the game ends. (See exception for yellow-carded player.)
Unlimited substitutions can be made with the referee's consent prior to a throw-in, on a goal kick, after a goal, and at half time. Both teams may substitute prior to goal kicks, after a goal and at half time. As to throw-ins, however, only the team in possession has the initial option of so substituting, but if it does, the other team may also substitute as well. If the game is stopped to allow a substitution for an injured player, the other team may also substitute, on a one-for-one basis. No substitution is allowed prior to a corner kick. Note: no substitution can be made without the referee's consent.
A cautioned (yellow-carded) player must leave the field immediately, and a substitute may enter with the referee's consent. If that player's team has no substitutes, his/her team will play short-handed until its next substitution opportunity. If the yellow-carded team's player strength falls below seven, the game will still continue. Note: This BAYS rule for temporarily removing cautioned players is not intended to cause a game forfeit.
No sent off (red carded) player may re-enter the game nor may the player have a substitute.
All injuries that result in bleeding will be substituted for immediately. No bloodied player will return to the game unless bandaged, and blood-soaked uniforms cannot be worn.

- How and by whom was the score comparison created? Was it created solely by ETS?
- The score comparison tool was created by ETS researchers. It is based on the analysis of 1,153 individuals who took both the TOEFL® test and IELTS® academic module.
- On what research is it based?
- After a thorough analysis of 1,153 score reports for students who took both the TOEFL test and IELTS academic test, the ETS-authorized comparison table was developed. Under this approach, TOEFL iBT® score ranges are identified for test takers meeting a particular score level on the equivalent IELTS score band. For example, a TOEFL score range between 32 and 34 corresponds to an IELTS score of 4.5. View the score comparison.
- How does this map to the Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR)? In particular, what score is considered C1 status?
- The comparison tool developed by ETS does not provide a direct comparison to the CEFR. However, the table that maps the CEFR to the TOEFL test is also provided to assist the user. For example, TOEFL scores of 95 and above map to C1 level on the CEFR. The comparison table then can be used to see how the TOEFL score maps to the IELTS score. In this example, a TOEFL score in the range of 94–101 maps to an IELTS score of 7 and the TOEFL score in the range of 102–109 maps to an IELTS score of 7.5.
- We require a minimum TOEFL score of 80. What is the conversion for the IELTS score?
- A TOEFL score of 80 falls within the TOEFL 79 to 93 score range, which corresponds to an IELTS score of 6.5.
- A student who is applying to our university received a 7.0 on his IELTS academic test. Is this equivalent to a 98 on the TOEFL test?
- Using the comparison table, this student would be expected to receive a corresponding TOEFL score between 94 and 101. The comparison table may be used to look up a corresponding TOEFL score given an IELTS score. Similarly, the table may be used to look up a corresponding IELTS score given a TOEFL score.
- My university requires a TOEFL Speaking section score of 21. What information does the comparison tool provide about TOEFL subscores?
- The comparison tool for each TOEFL section score (Reading, Listening, Speaking, and Writing) works in the same way as the total TOEFL score. For example, a TOEFL Speaking section score of 21 falls within the TOEFL 20 to 22 score range, which corresponds to an IELTS speaking score of 6.5. See the Compare TOEFL Scores page for more information.
- The score comparison reviews the TOEFL iBT test and the IELTS academic module. Is there a conversion chart for the TOEFL paper-based test?
- The tools only compare the TOEFL iBT test and IELTS academic test.
- Why is ETS now issuing a score comparison for the TOEFL test and the IELTS test?
- The Internet contains many score comparisons, none of which appear to be based on research. ETS's goal is to help higher education institutions make the best admissions decisions with objective, research-based information.

Dominican hair products and hair stylists are quickly earning an outstanding reputation throughout the United States. I am sure that many wonder if this is just a new fad or if the products and stylists actually deserve their reputation. To determine their credibility lets analyze their hair treatment process.
What hair products do they use?
Dominican stylists like others use the popular name brand products such as, Sebastian, Biolage, Paul Mitchell, Nexus etc. However, they also use the traditional Dominican hair products made out of natural fruits, vegetables, or animal protein.
What is their styling process?
After washing the hair they apply the hair conditioner. Then cover hair with a plastic cap and let you sit under the bonnet dryer for ten to twenty minutes. Later they will rinse it out and do hair rollers. After that you will probably be sitting on the drier anywhere from half an hour to one hour. This depends mostly on your hair type and length. Afterwards, they will move in to styling your hair. If you just want your hair straight this is the time when they will straighten the curls or waves left by rollers with a blow dryer. They rarely like to just blow dry hair without doing the rollers first.
Another Reason why their products and styling process fit everyone is because their main focus is the maintenance and treatment of hair. By deep conditioning it, they diminish the amount of harm that we do to our hair with harsh chemicals such as hair color, relaxers, perms, highlights, etc.. They also control the amount of direct heat to individual strands by limiting or avoiding the use of blow dryers and hot irons.

What is the Big Deal About Dominican Hair Stylists?
Hair extensions can be fun and let you have the long hair you have wanted for a while! There are three major categories: Strand by strand extensions, weft extensions, and clip-on extensions. Most of the extensions look the same, but there are different ways of taking care of them, brushing them, etc.
Weft extensions are attached one row of hair at a time as opposed to strand by strand extensions which are small strands of the hair is attached one by one to small sections of your own hair by either weaving, gluing, heat fusing, clamping with metal tubes or using waxes and polymers. Depending on how well you take care of your extensions and how fast your hair grows they last from 2-6 months. Also, most of the time the hair extensions are real human hair, and you just have to find the color that best matches your hair. Hair extensions are usually found at most beauty supply stores.
Hair extensions are really neat, especially if you are wanting your hair to grow longer. You can have long hair while waiting for your hair to grow out! I have also heard it makes your hair grow faster, but I am not sure about that one. Here are some other sites that may be able to help you!

"CBSbutler have been using Broadbean for nearly 2 years now and it has really streamlined our processes.
It has certainly benefited our consultants in reducing their admin and saving time - only having to write an ad once which can then be posted across all the boards.
From a training point of view when new recruits join the company it is also easy and quick for them to see what job boards we have available. In terms of our return on investment (really critical at the moment) it is so easy to see where we are most successful as we can track where candidates are coming from and produce a whole range of reports that show effective job boards by team or across the whole company. It also effectively allows us to restrict job posting to control costs if we need to. The service offered by the support team is also excellent - all the team are really friendly and helpful and problems always resolved - if not immediately - then promptly and when they say they will. Keep up the good work."

The following listing includes recommended doctors and practitioners for your thyroid care. Please note that being listed here in the Thyroid Top Doctors Directory doesn't necessarily mean a doctor is the right one for you. The doctor may be an empathetic and warm physician, but not open to working with drugs like Armour or T3 drugs. The doctor may be brilliant and innovative, but have a terrible bedside manner. Or the doctor may be quite costly and not on insurance programs. Always call the doctor's office ahead of time to find out more about the doctor's philosophy, approach, costs, and other important factors before going in for your first appointment. Please let me know if you have feedback -- positive or negative -- about doctors listed here, or would like to recommend your "top" doctor.

Evil Surgeon and Patient
On a spooky Halloween night, the evil surgeon Phoenix decided to play a game of Operation. Poor Cavity-Aladdin's nose didn't stop lighting up and buzzing as Phoenix removed his funny bone, spare ribs, and charlie horse. Despite this, the evil doctor proclaimed the Operation a success!
|Costume type:
|Costumes for Pets
This homemade costume for pets entered our 2011 Halloween Costume Contest,
A word from Bonnie & Beth, the 'Game of Operation' costume creators:
This photo is of our golden retrievers, Aladdin and Phoenix. We decided to recreate the game of Operation, and even created a hospital gown body with body part pictures made out of craft foam. We used salad tongs as the tongs from the game that Phoenix is holding in his mouth, and a rawhide bone as the funny bone being removed. We hollowed out a red foam ball to use as Aladdin's nose. We made the gameboard which Aladdin is lying on out of posterboard which is attached to the table. We tried to recreate the Operation lettering along the front.

I love "hair shirt" stories like this. Especially if they're about someone living nearby. It's good for a garage sale with everything for free – when they go through this crisis of ownership.
Usually, the dimwit acting out his heroic monkish self-image isn't even bright enough to sell off his creature comforts.
Many have begun trading in CD, DVD, and book collections for digital music, movies, and e-books. But this trend in digital technology is now influencing some to get rid of nearly all of their physical possessions – from photographs to furniture to homes altogether…
Meet Kelly Sutton, a spiky-haired 22-year-old software engineer with thick-rimmed glasses and an empty apartment in Brooklyn's Williamsburg neighbourhood – a hotbed for New York's young, early adopters of new technology.
Mr Sutton is the founder of CultofLess.com, a website which has helped him sell or give away his possessions – apart from his laptop, an iPad, an Amazon Kindle, two external hard drives, a "few" articles of clothing and bed sheets for a mattress that was left in his newly rented apartment.
This 21st-Century minimalist says he got rid of much of his clutter because he felt the ever-increasing number of available digital goods have provided adequate replacements for his former physical possessions.
"I think cutting down on physical commodities in general might be a trend of my generation – cutting down on physical commodities that can be replaced by digital counterparts will be a fact," said Mr Sutton…
Mr Sutton sold or gave away most of his assets, apart from his iPad, Kindle, laptop and a few other items
The tech-savvy Los Angeles "transplant" credits his external hard drives and online services like iTunes, Hulu, Flickr, Facebook, Skype and Google Maps for allowing him to lead a minimalist life…
Beaucoup apocrypha fleshes out an article on living the puritan life.
Pretty much tales of folks who think the monastic life brings some sort of liberation. Rather like hitting yourself in the forehead with a ballpeen hammer – "because it feels so good when you stop!"

Movies We Like
The Avengers
If my 12-year old self thought it was even remotely possible that several of my favorite Marvel superheroes would not only have their own solo movies fronted by big Hollywood celebrities, but one day all appear in the same movie as one big multi-movie universe event, I would've lost my mind. And, hell, even now in my 30s the fact that The Avengers movie exists makes me lose my mind! Back when Marvel kicked off the first batch of their self-produced films with Iron Man, the slim glimmering hope that it would lead to The Avengers was there, but I don't think any of us comic book fans actually thought it would happen. The fact that it did, and that writer/director Joss Whedon, creator of Buffy The Vampire Slayer and Firefly, managed to pull it off and make it into one of the biggest and thoroughly entertaining action blockbusters of the summer is a miracle.
What's great is all the other Marvel movies have been leading to this. If you've been watching along with Iron Man, The Incredible Hulk, Thor and Captain America, then this movie is all pay off from everything you've seen before. Yet it simultaneously works as a stand alone film that any viewer can watch and enjoy because of how well Whedon balances each character's introductions and screen time. It's similar to watching any ensemble flick and wondering where all these characters came from before the movie. In this case, those movies exist and you can go back to them! But alas, let's focus on the one at hand.
The movie opens at the underground lair of SHIELD, a covert secret government organization led by Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson) that monitors extraordinary threats against the United States and the world overall. They've been experimenting with the cosmic cube, a self-sustaining alien energy source that somehow summons the banished villain Loki (Tom Hiddleston) to Earth where, upon his arrival, he plans on opening a portal and leading the alien race known as the Chitauri to overthrow and rule the planet. Years earlier, Fury had attempted to recruit several extraordinary people around the world for the Avengers Initiative; an idea to gather a group of the world's "superheroes" should a threat too large ever present itself. It never came to fruition primarily because of Tony Stark (Robert Downey, Jr) who could not "play well with others." Despite the program's initial failure, with Loki out there and the threat of global war, he has no choice but to start to assemble the team.
There's the reluctant Tony Stark aka Iron Man. SHIELD already has the Black Widow (Scarlett Johannson) whom we first met in Iron Man 2. Hawkeye (Jeremy Renner) has unfortunately been compromised and hypnotized to serve along-side Loki. Captain America, the first Avenger has just awoken from World World 2 and is still adjusting to suddenly being thrust into our modern day world. And the brilliant Doctor Bruce Banner, whose alter ego is the incredible Hulk. Cap and Iron Man manage to capture Loki in Germany, but that's when his brother Thor also arrives on the scene. Loki's capture however was intentional and all part of his plan to break up the team by unleashing the Hulk on board the helicarrier.
While that plan works for a short period of time, the entire gang (including a now cured Hawkeye) joins forces in the heart of New York where Loki opens the portal just over the newly constructed Stark Towers. What's fantastic about the movie is how well every aspect of these characters is explored and delivered leading up to that epic 30-minute finale. We literally get to see all these great battles within the group before they even tackle the Chitauri army! For example, Iron Man fights Thor, Thor fights the Hulk, Black Widow fights Hawkeye, Cap teams up with Iron Man and so on and so forth. It's all the type of things comic fans would always debate about from the pages. Who would win in a fight? The Hulk or Thor? It makes it all the more satisfying when they all team up at the end. Even the way that entire sequence is shot is incredible. It doesn't matter if you're a bigger fan of Captain America or the Hulk. Every single character gets their equal screen time and that makes it thoroughly entertaining. There's even one great scene where, in one long shot, we pan through what each character is doing in the battle and we literally get to see them each work as a team.
While everyone in this all-star cast shines, special mention has to be made of Mark Ruffalo who portrays Bruce Banner/the Hulk here. It's his first movie in the Marvel Universe as this version of the character was originated by Ed Norton in The Incredible Hulk, but finally, Marvel got the cinematic version of one of their most beloved characters right! Ruffalo is one of the only actors who somehow manages to capture that vulnerability and likability that Bill Bixby portrayed in the original Hulk TV series, which quite frankly is what most general audiences remember. When he does "Hulk" out for the end battle, I'd say he gets to deliver several of the most audience pleasing moments of the entire film.
The Avengers is also great on repeat viewings. It's fun to catch several nods to things from the previous Marvel movies, or just catch the references within the movie. It's got a lot of heart, a lot of laughs and Whedon's love and enthusiasm for each and every one of these characters shines through and through. Robert Downey Jr. really set the tone for all these films when he debuted as Tony Stark in the first Iron Man, and I feel we have him to thank for inevitably paving the path which led straight to The Avengers. For all the die-hard fans, make sure you stay past the credits for two bonus scenes. The one at the very, very end is a great punchline to a joke set up during the finale battle.
