What's the best solution for an arm lift with no scar tissue?
I'd want a minimal incision type of surgery or to avoid surgery altogether in order to lift the skin on my upper arms. Would that be possible? Any recommendations? I don't have large bat wings, in case it helps.
The size and length of your scar will be dependent on how big of an incision your plastic surgeon has to make, and you're really not going to know how big that's going to be until you have a consultation. In some cases, where only a small incision needs to be made, most of the scar tissue will be hidden in your arm pit and on the inside of your arm. My personal experience was that I only needed an incision around two inches long, and it is usually not visible at all, except when I lift my arms in a tank top. However, depending on how much excess skin and fat you need removed, this may not be your case. Since you say that you don't have very large bat wings, I would imagine that your scarring would be fairly minimal and easy to hide, but you should definitely discuss these concerns with your plastic surgeon at your consultation to avoid being disappointed by the end results. In the end, your surgeon knows that you are getting this surgical procedure to look good, and she/he will do everything in their power to avoid side effects like scaring. Good luck with your surgery!
There's an option for a minimally invasive surgery. My doctor called it the "hidden scar" arm lift. People who get this type of surgery do not have a ton of loose arm skin to get rid of, so you will probably be a really fit for it. With this type of surgery, the plastic surgeon places the scar inside of the armpit instead of from the armpit all the way down to the elbow. This minimizes the appearance of the scar and no one will be able to tell that you've had any work done at all. I have to literally show people the scar itself before they will believe that I had an arm lift. I am really pleased with the results and I'm glad I chose to have my procedure done this way instead of the traditional way.
I wanted a small incision type of procedure to avoid all the cuts. However, I knew that scars were part of the procedure so I was ready for the scars when I decided to get surgery. I did a few things to help reduce the scars and incisions. After the procedure, I used to do simple scar massages on the part that was cut. Massaging and applying products to the healed scar helped me improve its appearance. It helped break up the scar tissue and made the scar as fine as possible. Hydrating was helpful too. My doctor also advised me to avoid direct sunlight on the scars to help speed up the healing process.
Well, an arm lift is an arm lift, and that's going to require an incision. Not sure if it can be done without SOME scar tissue. That would be a specialized question that only your plastic surgeon can answer. What I can say though, is that the market is full of products-- creams and gels and such to minimize scar tissue so it really can't be seen at all. I think even acupuncture can help with scarring. I have had an upper arm lift procedure and I was also concerned about having large noticeable scars all up and down my arms. I'm really pleased to say that my doctor did a great job. I had the full arsenal of anti-scarring over-the-counter products after my arm lift surgery. I tried them all to the point where I'm not sure which of them worked the best, or if it was the sheer combination of all of them, lol. I think you'll be fine. It's a great, relatively safe procedure that really helped me with my self-esteem.
I've heard that it's possible to have a type of plastic surgery done where the only incision is made in your armpit area, BUT obviously, only certain people are good candidates for this option. The ones who really only have loose skin to remove in an isolated area. I wanted to avoid having long scars on my arms, so I asked my doc about doing the procedure through my armpit. I was advised against it because it really wouldn't have worked for me. I don't feel like any of the new scars that I have are noticeable. You won't look like Frankenstein, honey. Medical technology has come quite a long way and really, these days scarring is a non-issue when done right. But then again, perhaps you're a good candidate for the armpit incision option. It doesn't hurt to ask the doc. Only he or she can answer that accurately. Cheers.
There are many plastic surgeons who offer an arm lift with only a small incision so that the scar is much less noticeable. It is called a transverse brachioplasty. With this procedure, the scar is usually in the underarm area so it's a lot more subtle. This might be a good option for you. Unfortunately, if you want great results on an arm lift procedure, it is hard to completely avoid new scars. Another big part of reducing scaring is following post procedure instructions. Avoid strenuous activities and heavy lifting to minimize visible scars. You can also use over the counter creams for scar treatment.

Things to consider about the Pepper Home Loans Easy Alt Doc home loan
You can get this home loan to buy a property for residential purposes, for investment purposes, to refinance your existing loan, or to access funds to make renovations or for use in business. As long as the loan to value ratio (LVR) does not exceed 80%, you can get cash out to use towards renovations, payment of Australian Tax Office (ATO) debts and business expenses.
Acceptable securities include residential properties with land size not exceeding 25 acres (10 hectares).
Features of the Pepper Easy Home Loan Alt Doc
- Loan amount and loan term. For an LVR of up to 80%, the maximum you can borrow through this loan is $50,000. For LVRs in between 80% and 55%, the maximum loan amount reduces to $650,000. The loan term can vary between 10 and 40 years.
- LVR. If you plan to buy a home, either to live in or as investment, the maximum LVR stands at 55%. If you're seeking this loan for any other purpose, the maximum LVR reduces to 80%. LVR plays a role in the interest you pay because this loan follows a tiered interest rate structure. For example, you'll be paying a lower interest rate for up to 65% LVR as compared to what you'll have to pay if the LVR is in between 75% and 80%.
- Repayment flexibility. You have the option to pay the loan off ahead of schedule. You can make extra repayments at any time and you have access to the additional payments via a redraw facility.
- Redraws. You can redraw money you pay in the form of extra repayments at any time, though you cannot redraw less than $1,000 manually or $50 (online) at a time.
- Cash out. If you're not borrowing more than 80% of your home's LVR, you can use the money for different purposes. These include paying off ATO debts, using the funds for business purposes and making renovations to your existing home.
Fees you can avoid
- Redraw fee: $0. There's no fee for redrawing your additional funds with this loan.
Fees you can't avoid
- Establishment fee: $995.
- Mortgage risk fee: Up to 2% of advanced amount. This is charged in the place of LMI and more is charged the higher your LVR is. The fee starts at 0.75% of the loan amount when your LVR is below 65%, and gets as high as 2% if you borrow 95%
- Monthly administration fee: $15. This fee is charged for the maintenance of your accounts.

The Same Fibromyalgia Diagnostic Criteria Can Be Used in Adults and Adolescents, Report Shows
Juvenile fibromyalgia (JFM) usually affects adolescent girls. Similar to adult fibromyalgia (FM), JFM is a chronic widespread pain syndrome that is difficult to diagnose. Now, advances made in understanding FM in adults are being used to improve the diagnostic methods for JFM. Diagnostic criteria established by The American College of Rheumatology (ACR) in 2010 is currently being used by doctors to diagnose FM. Now, a study conducted at the Cincinnati Children's Hospital, presented at the ACR 2014 Annual Meeting in Boston, shows that ACR 2010 criteria can also be applied successfully by pediatricians to diagnose JFM. The researchers studied a group of 44 adolescent patients diagnosed with JFM by a rheumatologist in comparison to a control group of 44 age and gender matched adolescents with localized pain, such as abdominal aches or limb pain. In most of these juvenile patients, FM was diagnosed based on the Yunus and Masi criteria (93.2%) versus ACR 1990 criteria (6.8%). When the ACR 2010 Widespread Pain Index was applied to the two groups, 83.7% of the juvenile patients and 11.4% of the control patients with localized pain were diagnosed with FM. Nevertheless, the initial control patients now diagnosed with FM by ACR 2010 criteria still had less symptoms than the confirmed FM patients. In conclusion, the application of the ACR FM 2010 algorithm and T-tests used to compare the two groups on the number of

Athens, Ga.–Freshmen Amanda Craddock and Amanda McDowell won singles matches, and then sophomore Christy Striplin rallied from a 4-1 deficit in the third set to clinch a 4-2 victory for No. 3 Georgia Tech over No. 10 California, putting the Yellow Jackets in the national championship match for the first time in school history. Tech will face No. 12 UCLA Tuesday at 7 p.m. at Henry Feild Stadium.
Tickets for the NCAA Championship, priced at $10, are available at the gate. On-line tickets and other information, as well as live scoring for the match are available at www.georgiadogs.com. The match will be televised on ESPNU.
Tuesday's match will mark the third time any Yellow Jacket team has played for an NCAA championship, but Georgia Tech has never won an NCAA team title in any sport (Tech has won four national championships in football but they are not considered NCAA titles). Most recently, the Tech men's basketball program lost to Connecticut in the 2004 NCAA title game, and in 1994, the Yellow Jacket baseball team fell to Oklahoma in the College World Series championship game. The Tech golf team has finished second at the NCAA championships on four occasions.
Tech won its 20th straight match to run its record to 28-4 on the season.
Playing No. 5 singles against Cal's Marion Ravelojaona, Striplin won the first set 6-2, but lost the second set 6-1 and fell behind 4-1 in the third before winning five straight games for the 6-2, 1-6, 6-4 victory and Tech's clinching fourth point. The No. 2 singles match was in the third set with Tech's Alison Silverio serving at 40-40, 1-2 in the set against 12th-ranked Zsuzsanna Fodor when Striplin broke Ravelojaona's serve to win the match.
"This team showed so much resilience," said Tech head coach Bryan Shelton. "Cal is a premier team, and they played so well and fought so hard in singles. For Christy to be down 4-1 and win five straight games – we had freshmen and sophomores stepping up for us today."
"I knew it would come down to either Alison or me," said Striplin. "I just wanted to fight as hard as I could, and I'm glad I could get it done for my team."
After claiming the doubles point to take a 1-0 lead, the Jackets came out strong in singles by winning first sets on four of the six courts. But only McDowell was able to finish off her match in straight sets as she downed Stephanie Kusano at No. 4 singles, 6-3, 6-0, to stretch Tech's lead to 2-0. That win was the 10th straight for the freshman from Atlanta, who leads the Jackets with 38 wins on the season.
Craddock, ranked 71st in the nation, knocked off No. 22 Nina Henkel, 6-3, 2-6, 6-1, at No. 3 singles to push the Jackets' advantage to 3-0. She has won 17 of her last 18 matches, and the win over Henkel marks the highest ranked player that she has beaten.
With Tech leading 3-0, Cal quickly answered with wins at No. 6 and at No. 1, where fourth-ranked Susie Babos rallied for a 2-6, 6-3, 6-0 win over Tech's sixth-ranked Kristi Miller.
Tech won the doubles point with wins at the No. 1 and No. 2 flights. First Silverio and Craddock, ranked 26th, knocked off Henkel and Kusano, 8-2.
Then Tech's duo of Miller and Whitney McCray, ranked third nationally, defeated Cal's fifth-ranked duo of Babos and Fodor, 8-6. The Jackets jumped to a 5-1 lead before allowing Cal to even the match at 6-6, but Tech broke Babos' serve to go up 7-6 and then Miller served out the match. On court three, Tech's Tarryn Rudman and Kirsten Flower led 7-4 and had a match point when Miller and McCray finished.
"I knew from day one in practice that this was a special group," said Miller, the junior all-American from Marysville, Mich. "These freshmen were not afraid to challenge for spots in the lineup, and they came through for us today."

Having bees decide to build a nest in your home can be looked at from two ways. Maybe you like bees and you don't mind them being there, or maybe you are terrified of bees and you don't want them there. Either way, you need to understand about the different kinds of bees in the UK and that they need to be treated with different methods, as one method does not fix all. There may be issues with the sheer size of the nest, and this is when it can start to damage your home. Honey bees, for example, will build a large nest and the honey may leak onto the wood, in the underside of your roof, or they might just decide to build their nest in the most disruptive of places, and you need to get it moved.
What To Look For.
In Wales, the two most common bees would be bumble bees and honey bees. When you are trying to identify what kind of bee you have, look at their shape. If they are more rounder, bigger and seem furrier than other bees, then those are bumble bees. These kinds of bees tend to build their nests in bird boxes, beneath your decking and maybe in a compost pile, but they are now increasingly setting up home in trees. As a rule, you don't need to worry about them, but sometimes the swarm becomes so big, that it becomes a concern and you need to look for an expert who can carry out a bumble bees nest removal in Cardiff.
Get Them Moved.
The honey bees will provide you with great honey, but sometimes they set up home in the most unusual of places, like your chimney or in your wall cavities. Honey bees are smaller than bumble bees and generally they are OK, until they begin to swarm. When they do swarm, they set up shop on a tree branch and other places, but this is usually short term, as they look for somewhere a little more permanent. The honey bee is not protected and you can call in pest control for them, but talk to the pest control expert, and see if they can move the bees on without killing them. In a number of cases, the pest control expert can move the hive to a more suitable place, where they are not as intimidating.
Killing Is A Last Resort.
Killing the bees should be a last resort, and it will depend on whether the entrance to the nest can be closed after the area is treated. A pest control expert will have the professional knowledge and the technical information to assess the situation and they also have access to certain insecticides, that won't be available across the counter. Once the issue has been addressed, make sure that you cover up all areas where they can get into around your house, and remove any honey comb you see. The reason for this, is that that honey has been contaminated with the insecticide and the bees will try to take it back to the new nest. You don't want this, as it will infect the new nest site.
Generally, bees should be left alone and it is only as a last resort that you should contact pest control. They will go away themselves eventually, but it is understandable to remove them if they become a nuisance.

In 1998 Marc Newman (the screenwriter for Shakespeare in Love) fully conceptualized what Mr. Shakespeare would be doing with his life today if born in current times as opposed to having men dress as women (and playing the female roles during the late 1500s.)
"If Shakespeare were alive today, he'd be driving a Porsche, living in Bel-Air, and he'd have a deal with Paramount."
Well put, Mr. Newman, if Shakespeare had any clue his work would still be relevant and inspire over 300 years since passing in 1616 that would be one astronomical upfront payment in numbers that may go on longer than pi.
2.) King Of The World 1996
James Cameron was indeed "King of the World," proving that it shall be as it was written. James Cameron exclaimed "I'm king of the world" by paying homage to the film's lead during his acceptance speech for his Academy Award win for Best Director regarding the film "Titanic" (or possibly known as "the movie some kids think was just a film that wasn't based on an actual historical event of a gigantic ship sinking.")
3.) I Love You… Show Me The Money
Cuba Gooding Jr. not only approached his win with enthusiastic class but also lamented his love for everyone being caught in his moment. Did you know Cuba loves you? He won an Academy Award for his role in "Jerry Maguire" in 1996 and he loves you. The music is playing, he's jumping, and he loves you. Cuba. Loves. You.
4.) The Academy Award Goes To Batmen
Christian Bale (Christopher Nolan series) and George Clooney (the ICE "Batman and Robin" film [pun alert]) are both batmen that won an Academy Award win post pointy eared iconic role. Both have won Best Supporting Actor awards (Clooney for "Syriana" in 2006 and Bale for "The Fighter" in 2010) and put on effortless class that make their heartfelt speeches show everyone how a win is handled properly.
5.) Back-To-Back Oscars
Sometimes a person should think to themselves "Tom Hanks didn't win an Academy Award, the Academy Awards won a Tom Hanks" and there's nothing wrong with thinking like that. With style and class Mr. Hanks delivered a timely speech addressing the AIDS crisis throughout the country accepting his Best Actor Award for "Philadelphia" in 1993. He also won a Best Actor Oscar for "Forrest Gump" the following year.
This article can only capture some of the electricity that is the Academy Awards but it is something I can live with…
Because Cuba Gooding Jr. loves me.
As much as he loves you.

(Persia Digest) - The years 2017/2018 will certainly be recorded as an important years in the history of Iran. Not only because of the 12th presidential elections and the victory of Mr Rouhani, but also due to the protests which, in fact, began on 28 December 2017 in Mashhad, but quickly spread to other cities. The protests surprised and amazed many, so that officials and experts sought to find its roots. Some claimed it was due to the efforts of the opposing faction of the executive branch and would eventually backfire. Another expert, in a comparison between the two indicators of employment and inflation in the eight years of Mr Ahmadinejad's government and the second term of Mr Rouhani's government, concludes that "It is reasonable to say these rallies are not based on a spontaneous social response and instinctive reaction of the people.
It is like putting your hand in very hot water, but not feel any burning sensation, and even laugh and say that it is just warm; but then put your hand in warm water and scream about being burned! No one accepts this kind of behavior. There is certainly something else going on, besides the spontaneous behavior." Other people, like Mr Raghfar, consider the street protests in January 2018 to be due to false economic policies followed every year after the Iraq-Iran war. He believes the main cause of the rallies is economic issues and the damage that has been rooted in economic policies over the past three decades. According to Mr Raghfar, these policies have turned into a festering wound, which is bleeding once again. Additionally, some individuals known as non-reformists, while determining the cause of the protests, also dragged Saddam's brother-in-law into the mix.
The purpose of this article is not only to trace the reasons for the January protests, but also to investigate the type of encounter with, or in other words the management of, the protests - if we are to believe in the existence of management in the face of the January protests and other similar protests. The government's encounter with the January protests is briefly outlined below.
In encountering the protests after several days, government rallies were held, social media such as Instagram and Telegram were blocked for several days, and eventually, with the arrest of a number of protesters - according to Iran Newspaper Telegram channel, the total number of arrests were reported to be 4972 people - the protests abated. In the end, we see a temporary end to the protests. We say "temporary" end of protests, because until its roots are properly recognized and accepted by the ruling authorities, the protests will just be postponed and, therefore, management does not take place in scientific terms.
If the protests were mostly caused by unemployment, unfavorable economic conditions, lack of hope for the future and..., in this case, the best management would be to solve these issues, not to arrest the protestors or cut off social media applications such as Telegram, because the protests were the result of such issues which still exist. It should be noted that politics is not a one-person or one-sided affair. Every political society is made up of groups and forces that are more or less involved in political life. Social forces may rise up against the making of power, or participate in it, influence it, or become politically passive. On the other hand, governments may suppress social forces beyond the realms of power, or let them in the powerhouse, or mobilize support.
The government itself as the most important political entity, is not socially hovering in void, but exists in the context of a complex network of social interests and profits, and one cannot properly understand its nature without knowing these interests and profits. Although the government is the most powerful manifestation of political power, it is not free from the domination of social forces. The government is the sphere of social struggles and the domination of some of them on others.
Generally, governments have four different faces or bases. The first is on the basis of compulsion and has a compulsory face; the second one has an ideological basis and an ideological face; the third has a public face or providing public services and functions; and the fourth is on the basis of material interests and has a private face. The minimal existence of these bases is necessary for any political system. A government that loses the power of compulsion and its suppression systems are weakened will become unstable. Usually, opponents and enemies of political systems are familiar with their compulsory face. Although domination and compulsion are the most important elements of a political society, governments need the support and approval of the people in order to legitimize their power.
When the obedience and loyalty of the people to the state are based on general and ethical principles and reasons, the state's power and compulsion are more easily accepted. Governments have long been tasked with general functions. Defending against foreign attacks, resolving domestic disputes, performing public services and providing a system of arbitration, prosecution and justice are the most deep-rooted faces of the state.
Some people may believe that if the reasons for the protests are unemployment or economic problems, then solving these is not a state duty and, therefore, the private sector should be responsible for these matters. The most liberal governments come to the aid of the most private economic institutions in times of economic crisis, and with regard to the government of the Islamic Republic of Iran, which is the largest employer and therefore has the most economic resources, the government cannot be exempted from such functions. Thus, until the government is able to carry out these functions properly, such protests will continue to happen. Future protests may worsen with other crises arising, such as water shortages, environmental issues, dust storms, and so on.
The January protests showed that the postponement of crises is not the answer. And if we do not or cannot respond to crises (of any kind) we have not done any management, but only used control or swept it under the carpet. It should also be noted that the more the compulsive and repressive face of the state is used, the more its legitimate face will be diminished. Therefore, it is not wise to only resort to compulsive governmental measures in the face of protests and crises. Rather, by increasing the efficiency of the state (ie, performing appropriate public duties by the government for the people), the legitimization can be increased, and it also helps to diminish the compulsory face of the government in confronting its domestic opponents.
Finally, a few points are worth mentioning:
First, in this paper, the word "government" is used in its special meaning in political science, not the executive branch.
Second, it can be assumed that some opportunists or even opponents of the government of the Islamic Republic of Iran are trying to exploit Iran's domestic protests. But diminishing the causes of domestic protests and crises into foreign conspiracies, regardless of the internal causes of the occurrence or intensification of crises, is not the way to deal with these. And so, we need to accurately determine the contribution of each of these to avoid mistakes when responding to them.
Third, just as the use of repressive means in the face of protests and crises do not work, remaining silent and denying the existence of protests and crises are also not the answer. Therefore, the groundwork must be laid for dialogue and solution finding to manage crises and protests.

Gregory Crewdson
Gregory Crewdson (born September 26, 1962) is an American photographer who is best known for elaborately staged scenes of American homes and neighborhoods.
Crewdson was born in the Park Slope neighborhood of Brooklyn, NY. He attended John Dewey High School, graduating early.
As a teenager, he was part of a punk rock group called The Speedies that hit the New York scene in selling out shows all over town. Their hit song "Let Me Take Your Photo" proved to be prophetic to what Crewdson would become later in life. In 2005, Hewlett Packard used the song in advertisements to promote its digital cameras.
In the mid 1980s, Crewdson studied photography at SUNY Purchase, near Port Chester, NY. He received his Master of Fine Arts from Yale University. He has taught at Sarah Lawrence, Cooper Union, Vassar College, and Yale University where he has been on the faculty since 1993. He is now a professor at the Yale University School of Art. In 2012, he was the subject of the feature documentary film Gregory Crewdson: Brief Encounters.
Gregory Crewdson is represented by Gagosian Gallery worldwide and by White Cube Gallery in London
Gregory Crewdson's photographs usually take place in small town America, but are dramatic and cinematic. They feature often disturbing, surreal events. The photographs are shot using a large crew, and are elaborately staged and lit. He has cited the films Vertigo, The Night of the Hunter, Close Encounters of the Third Kind, Blue Velvet, and Safe as having influenced his style, as well as the painter Edward Hopper and photographer Diane Arbus.

Players are heading out of the tunnel.
We are 15 minutes from kickoff here in Seattle.
Montreal 3, Toronto FC 2. The game sure is becoming exciting in Montreal.

Montreal 3, Toronto FC 1. Huge away goal for the Reds.
Colorado is also on the field for their pregame warmups.
In the other conference final, Montreal is leading Toronto 3-0 after 54 minutes.
The Sounders have made their way to the pitch for pregame warmups.
We are 55 minutes away from kickoff here in Seattle.
Here is Colorado's Starting XI.
Here is your Sounders Starting XI
Sounds like the game will actually kickoff at 7:35 pm PT.
Sorry for the delay but I have finally made it to CenturyLink Field here in Seattle, WA. Give me one second and I will have the starting lineups for both teams.
Stay tuned for updates leading up to the game. The game is scheduled to kickoff at 10:00 pm ET and will be played at CenturyLink Field in Seattle, WA.
If the Sounders are able to jump on Colorado as they did against Dallas in the first leg, the Sounders go very well be on their way to their first-ever MLS Cup Final. There is still a lot of soccer left to be played but I like the Sounders in the first leg of the Western Conference Final.
The biggest question entering the game will be Morris' health as I mentioned earlier. If he can go, the Rapids could be in for a long night with his ability to relentlessly run at defenders for a full 90 minutes. Even if he can't go, the Sounders have enough skilled players to take his place but one can never really replace Morris.
This game will come down to defense from both teams. As mentioned earlier, the Rapids have the best defense in the league and they aren't easy to crack. The Sounders defense has been just as good as any in these last three months. With Alonso and Cristian Roldan playing the two defensive midfielders in front of the back line, the Sounders have been nearly impossible to score against.
The Rapids will do everything that they can to limit Lodeiro's time on the ball. However, the Rapids must be careful because the Sounders have tons of other playmakers on the team. After not being able to score all season long, Nelson Valdez has scored two goals in three playoff games. With Joevin Jones' ability to get up the field and send in decent crosses, the Rapids must do all they can to beat Valdez in the air.
Lodeiro has been the sparkplug that the Sounders missed for the first four months of the season. Since his arrival, the Sounders averaged two points per game over their last 14 games. That was good enough to allow the Sounders to climb from ninth place in the Western Conference to secure the fourth seed in the West.
Tim Howard is out for the next few months and will be replaced by Zach MacMath in goal. MacMath was in goal the previous two times these two teams played, holding the Sounders to just one goal in those games. However, this is a different Sounders team then they last time they met.
Former Seattle Sounders midfielder Marco Pappa is also listed as questionable has he has been dealing with a hamstring issue the last few weeks and it recently flared up again for the Guatemalan international.
Colorado also has injury issues of their own to deal with. MLS Goal of the Year winner, Shkëlzen Gashi was injured just before halftime of the Rapids game in leg two of their Western Conference Semifinal against the LA Galaxy. Head coach Pablo Mastroeni said they will wait until game time to decide if Gashi will play or not.
Andreas Ivanschitz and Alvaro Fernandez are also listed as questionable. These two have not been seen on the pitch for the Sounders since early October.
A majority concern for the Sounders will be the health of MLS Rookie of the Year, Jordan Morris. Morris has been questionable for this game after he was subbed out at halftime of the second leg of the Western Conference Semifinal against FC Dallas.
The Sounders are looking to book their first-ever trip to the MLS Cup Final. Standing in their way is the best defensive team in all of MLS in the Rapids. Seattle will be led on offense by MLS Newcomer of the Year Nicolás Lodeiro and on the defensive side of the ball, Osvaldo Alonso.
Hi, and welcome to VAVEL USA's live coverage of the Western Conference Final between the Seattle Sounders and Colorado Rapids. My name is Chris Blakely and I will be bringing you updates and commentary of Tuesday night's game at CenturyLink Field in Seattle, WA. Kickoff is scheduled for 10:00 pm ET.

World Money Fair – Opens To Public!
Good morning from
Speaking of pace, yesterday I took a few pictures of the set-up processes for the World Money Fair, which I'd like to share with you here.
The number of people working to bring this combination trade show and dealer bourse together is phenomenal. As you walk through the bourse in these early set-up days, you must be careful, as there are workmen moving quickly in every direction, all with a set purpose and destination. Materials are everywhere and show organizers are here and there doing everything and anything to fulfill exhibitor's needs.
While dealer booths are quite standard, the Mint and technical booths range in variety from functional to extremely lavish. The MDM booth is always a treat, with large displays and eye catching color. The Perth Mint booth is both dignified and thrilling in its displays of new coinage series, which are to be announced today. The Austrian Mint booth sports a unique design and a display of some 28 rolls of gold one ounce Royal Philharmonic bullion coins, which required two guards at all times.
Later this evening, I will attempt to describe the Media Forum, which entails four hours of Mint presentations laying out their new issue programmes for the coming year. For now, I must get moving, however, as our first meeting of the day, with our friends at the Italian State Mint begins in about one hour.

James Farrell, MBChB, is an internationally recognized expert in pancreatic diseases. He maintains a busy clinical practice focused on all aspects of interventional endoscopy, gastrointestinal cancer and pancreatic diseases including endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) and endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) evaluation of pancreatic malignancy, pancreatic cysts, pancreatitis and individuals at risk for pancreatic malignancy.
"My clinical commitment is to improve outcomes for patients with pancreatic disease, either by early detection or by optimizing treatment," he says. "I tell patients and their families there are many treatment options out there and that this is about them—and us helping them manage their disease properly."
In addition to his clinical work and research, Dr. Farrell is director of the Yale Medicine Pancreatic Diseases Program, which brings together a variety of pancreatic specialists including gastroenterologists, surgeons, oncologists and nurses who focus on pancreatic disease. "The greatest development that's happened in the field of pancreatic disease is our understanding of the basic mechanisms underlying these diseases that has allowed us to improve early detection as well as treatment responses," Dr. Farrell says. "That really wasn't there 10 years ago."
Dr. Farrell has addressed pancreatic disease on a national and international level as a member of such organizations as the NIH/NCI Pancreas Cancer Task Force. As a researcher, he is known for his development of personalized therapy approaches and early detection biomarkers for pancreatic cancer. He is an associate professor of medicine (digestive diseases) at Yale School of Medicine.

Dream Bingo on Mobile and Tablet
Dream Bingo is accessible on mobile and tablet on the mobile browser or you can download the official mobile app. Both the mobile site and app are completely optimised to provide the best mobile gaming experience. The app is available only to Apple users and the layout is identical to the mobile site.
The mobile version is very similar to the desktop. It has the same dreamy blue theme with fluffy clouds. The new player offer information is displayed on the very top banner of the home page where new players can click on the Play Now button which will lead to the registration page. You can scroll down to see the most popular games available and access the other games by using the tabs on the menu on the centre of the screen, similar to the desktop site.
A major disadvantage of the mobile site is that you cannot really see much information on the different bingo games available which is also true for the desktop version. You would have to be logged in and registered to see what type of games are played in each bingo room.
Dream Bingo Overall Usability and Registration
The site has a pretty simple and attractive design and it?s easy to access the different bingo and casino games. However, it might be a little odd for some users that the main menu is not on the very top of the screen but in the middle when you scroll down. The Promotions are also oddly placed at the right corner of the home page and each promo offers little information on how the game is played. This could be an advantage for those who are not really interested in reading up on terms and just want to go right away to the action.
You can either navigate to the different tabs of the centre menu to get to the different game rooms or scroll down and access a list of categories where you can scroll left or right to see the games under that particular category. You can access Bingo rooms, 5 reel slots, new games, roulette, jackpots, blackjack, 3 reel slots, video poker, and others.
New players can click the Register button on the banner at the top of the page and existing members can access the login page by clicking on the ?login? button on the top of the screen.
Dream Bingo Final Thoughts
Dream Bingo is a great place for players who just want a laidback environment and still win plenty of prizes. It is not a very big community but they have a wide range of bingo and casino games for you to choose from. There are also interesting promotions that offer a great variety of ways for you to increase your winnings.
Aside from the nice welcome bonus, you will get exclusive rewards and perks as you continue to play on the site. Progressive jackpots are offered on every bingo games so you have lots of chances of getting the big pot. The minimum withdrawal is not the lowest of all time but it is still significantly lower than what other bigger bingo sites would require.
The site has a nice dreamy theme and the games are well designed so you will have a fantastic gaming experience no matter if you are playing on your desktop or mobile device.

For Fisk, Season 3 has been about reclaiming his throne. He never intended to fly the coop and run off with Vanessa. He wanted to get back to where he was in Season 1: to being the guy in penthouse who secretly control all the crime in the city, with Vanessa at his side. A guy who's also so untouchable that he can commit brutal murder in front of his cronies (in this case, the actual FBI) and not feel the slightest bit of worry. Remember Season 1's car door slammage of doom? Now we've got "Give me your jacket." Sheesh. Fisk, now fully exonerated, and with federal agents under his control, can finally let off steam. You know, like only he can. With the stark and savage killing of an underling.
Fisk's press conference is inadvertently hilarious because his voice is so graveled and monstrous that it feels strange for his "I am not evil" speech to land so well. He sounds like icy frozen death and somehow he's able to calm down an angry crowd. His voice only makes him sound more sinister, if anything. The slo-mo strut out of the elevator is pretty awesome though.
By the end of "Reunion," it's crystal clear: Matt and company have to stop Fisk right now - before it's too late. Before his control reaches any further. They have allies; Maggie meanders around the church, throwing Fisk's agents off their trail, getting nuns to lie for her so that search dogs can't pick up their scent, but she can only do so much. Her maneuvers in episode 11 are mini-acts of atonement for the guilt she feels. Not that she wouldn't have helped out anyway, but her sneakiness here parallels her woefulness.In the end, it's Nadeem and (the return of) Detective Mahoney who really save Karen's bacon. While Dex goes off the deep end, hearing white noise and murdering passers-by out of sheer frustration, Nadeem has to carry the weight of this entire s*** storm on his shoulders. Nadeem was a chore to endure at first, but the perverse Monkey's Paw-esque "be careful what you wish for" arc they put him in, starting back in "Revelations," really helped rebuild him as a new character - one who pretty much has to sacrifice himself in order to get out of the mess he helped create
"Reunion," bottom line, is a crowd pleaser. Admittedly, I wasn't looking forward to the conversations that needed to be had about Matt wanting to kill Fisk. His friends were going to chastise him. He was going to find himself on the opposite end of the famed chat he had with Punisher back in Season 2, where Frank was the one arguing that some people were above the law and needed to be put down. But we don't get too much of that, actually. We're spared most of that spiel. Firstly, Matt gets no argument from Karen. Then, in the end, Foggy only scolds him a little. And Matt, now happy to have the band back together, doesn't bicker back all that much.
Absent from the previous episode, Foggy returns in "Reunion" for the episode's best moment: The rescuing of Karen under the protection of him and the NYPD. I've always been pro-Foggy. He's a tenaciously smart character who you feel absolutely safe around when it comes to matters of the law, which this show deals with quite a bit. He'll never be marked safe, mind you, and the show can surely still kill him off, but his energy and confidence when it comes to attacking bad guys using legal tactics is a dynamic that would be sorely missed.Suffice to say, Karen, after this particular crucible, is most likely safe forever now. As Matt puts it, "If you get caught, all of this was for nothing." Still, I can't help but think that another reason, a big factor, why Season 3 is playing so well is that there's an underlying finality to this story. Story-wise, this could easily be the last run. And with the recent news of Iron Fist, and now Luke Cage, being canceled, you can't help but wonder if the writing is on the wall for all of the Defenders. At least Daredevil would be going out on top.
Finally here, what's the ultimate point of the Mrs. Falb scene? Look, I like Leslie Ann Warren, but is this a one-off moment, meant to show Fisk that he'll never get the full support of the public like he wants? We're so used to, on these shows, getting introduced to a totally new face in a scene that lingers on a bit too long that I suppose it doesn't make all that much difference. But Season 3 is, and has been, very purposeful with its set up (basically turning most everything into Chekhov's Gun) so it stands to reason Mrs. Falb, or this scene, will wind up being important in ways we can't predict.
"Reunion" nicely ushers us into Season 3's endgame, reforming our heroic O.G. trio for (ostensibly) their final battle with Wilson Fisk. It's mostly a stationary search-and-rescue mission, but a crowd-pleasing one that doesn't hammer us over the head with too much chatter about Matt's lapsing morality. Once Matt, Karen, and Foggy re-discover their friendship, things become about toppling Fisk and staying alive - not about all the ways Matt's gone astray. Next up: Our review of Daredevil Season 3, episode 12.

Loving purses is a large part of my identity. I've been an active member of the PurseForum since 2007 and have been reading PurseBlog since 2006. I am pretty certain that I am part of this obsessive community for life, and I am so grateful to others who understand my love and appreciation for bags.
I can remember the first bag I ever wanted, a red and navy striped knit bag from Gap in 1998–I was 10 years old. My cousin wore it to a family outing and I recall the instant head over heels love I felt for it. I begged my mom to take me to the Gap to get my own but they didn't have it in stock. I continued to beg her to take me to different Gaps in our area for months, striking out at each of them. That bag still haunts me to this day. I still remember it well 20 years later--obsessive, I know!
I admired bags throughout high school, but it wasn't until 2006 when I was a freshman in college that I became a full blown addict. Browsing the internet in my dorm, I saw a photo of Kristin Cavallari carrying a light pink bag. The familiar rush of intense desire crept in; I had to have it. I saved the photo to my desktop and started googling frantically. My search led me to the PurseForum, and after perusing a few threads, I finally was able to find the bag I was looking for. A Rebecca Minkoff Morning After Bag. I was beside myself with excitement and even though I had never heard of a forum before, I intuitively bookmarked the page. I found myself checking the site multiple times a day, reading all the threads and comments about Rebecca Minkoff, a new designer at the time—I couldn't believe the wealth of knowledge at my fingertips.
A Morning After Bag cost $425 which, as a college student, seemed like a fortune. At first I thought my lust for the bag would decline, but when I started to have trouble sleeping at night thinking about it, I knew I was in trouble. I was consumed by how much I wanted it. I decided to start babysitting to fund my purchase. After three seemingly never ending months of saving, I was able to buy my own Morning After Bag in navy from Shopbop. I still remember the joy I felt unboxing it and the awe I felt that I owned something that came with its own dust bag. I was so proud of myself that I finally stopped lurking and joined the PurseForum as an official member. 11 years later, I am still active on the forum, visiting the site almost daily.
I had no idea that one random visit to a website could create such a bond between strangers. To this day I am unable to make a handbag purchase without seeking advice from other tPF members. When a bag catches my eye, I search it on PurseBlog, eager to absorb as many details as possible before taking the plunge. My tastes have changed and I have ventured into shopping premier and other contemporary designers, but one thing still remains constant—the community.
What bag brought you to the point of no return in your bag obsession? Let me know in the comments!
I'm including a few bags that might spark my obsession nowadays in 2018...
Marc Jacobs The Editor Leather Tote
Tory Burch McGraw Medium Tote
Kate Spade New York Reese Park Courtnee Large Shoulder Bag
