What accounts for the galloping lushness of bad manners on Twitter? A recent incident may shed some light.
When Bill Clinton appeared on Stephen Colbert's television show in early April, Mr. Colbert expressed surprise that he didn't have a Twitter feed. Mr. Clinton said he didn't tweet because he's "sort of insecure." So Mr. Colbert set up an account (@PrezBillyJeff) and had the former president dictate his first tweet to him. Mr. Clinton added that he was worried he would attract no followers, saying, "There's nothing worse than a friendless tweeter, right?" (He needn't have worried: an hour after the episode was broadcast, he had 20,000 followers.)
My point: if a household name capable of instantly drawing a crowd is concerned about looking like a loser on Twitter, think of the burden felt by the average Joe. In a milieu rife with self-promotion and self-branding, the inevitable byproduct is insecurity. Insecurity is to bad manners as boat travel is to nausea.
I joined Twitter in February to give myself a daily deadline for writing jokes. But soon the demon of success started breathing fire in my ear. "I don't have enough followers," I soon started thinking. "I need to twitter-blitz or to set fire to a small dog." I felt as if I had shown up at the Oscars in a tux by Giorgio Armandi.
The first piece of wisdom I gleaned was unanticipated. Namely, Twitter fact-checkers are an unforgiving bunch. In March, shortly after Senator Rob Portman of Ohio reversed his position on gay marriage because he has a gay son, I wrote the tweet, "Senator Rob Portman doesn't have another son who's poor and 87 and in need of health care, does he?"
When Andy Richter, the actor and writer best known as Conan O'Brien's sidekick, re-tweeted the joke to his 452,000 or so followers, one response I received was a veritable tasting menu of bad Twitter manners, combining as it did fact-checking (one) with undermining (two) and blame (three). The response ran, "an 87 year old son? @billmaher made that same joke, only funny. thanks for nothing @andyrichter." Trifecta!
But the most egregious expressions of insecurity on the site, of course, are nasty comments. If Twitter is an excellent shopping mall full of boutiques offering specialized news and wit and opinion, it is also a crowded barroom that bristles with a certain kind of white male rage.
This rage, marked by a hostility toward anything poetic or naïve, reaches its full expression in the comments directed at Jose Canseco's feed, a highly pleasing outpouring of slightly oddball, gnomic pronouncements. When Mr. Canseco, the baseball player, wrote, "I have blown up bigger engines than the diesel," one of his followers wrote, "Jose, I think you're an absolute moron." Mr. Canseco's tweet "north korea do the math" drew "I'm also very familiar with mental illness."
But you don't have to wield a cudgel to exhibit insecurity; I, for one, turn all my anxiety inward. Every time someone re-tweets one of my jokes, it sets off a spate of fretting about reciprocity.
If the person is a total stranger whose feed I do not follow, then I will look at this feed and consider climbing aboard. I'll look at the ratio of how many tweets to how many followers that person has: if it exceeds 10 to 1, then I may suddenly feel shy. Because this person is unknown to me, I will feel no compunction to re-tweet a post of hers, though I may be tempted to "favorite" (the equivalent of Facebook's "like" button) one.
But what if the person who has re-tweeted me is someone I know? Suddenly the pressure mounts. I'll proceed to follow her, of course, if I don't already. Then I'll start feeling very guilty if I don't re-tweet one of her posts.
Occasionally the disquiet caused by scanning an acquaintance's home page for a reciprocal re-tweet can escalate. Mr. Richter said: "Sometimes I just cannot pull the trigger. Then I'll bump into that person in the real world and they'll compliment me for my tweet. That's like saying, 'I saw your jail video on the Web!' "
Further complicating these bouts of anxiety about reciprocity is that they tend to happen in clumps. Like other activities rooted in the nonessential (finally reading that back issue of The Economist, say, or trimming difficult-to-reach hairs on your person), Twitter is at its most compelling when you are trapped in an airport hotel in Tulsa. You'll write 10 tweets that night, two or three of which will catch fire, drawing traffic. This traffic will want managing. You'll wake up the next morning and discover you've got some thank-you letters to write.
Such a situation befell me recently when a joke about a family member ("Although it's entirely untrue, my mother likes to tell people that I'm a film critic for NPR because that gets the biggest reaction") was re-tweeted by two colleagues in journalism. A more political one ("America: we may not be able to provide affordable health care for all, but our podcast industry is untouchable") was re-tweeted by the writer Merrill Markoe and "favorited" by the comedian Rob Delaney.
I wondered how to acknowledge this praise. I summarily re-tweeted tweets from both of my colleagues' feeds. (I ruled out hitting the Reply button and writing "Thanks!" because publicly disseminated thank-you letters are, for their nonrecipients, the most boring reading on the planet.)
But Ms. Markoe, being a comedy influence of mine, and Mr. Delaney, having some 820,000 followers to my 1,100, needed much more. I will admit that my desire to pinpoint these two people from among the others who re-tweeted or "favorited" the same joke attests to a kind of snobbism pervasive on Twitter, and of which I'm party to: because they're well-known, these two are names that I want to spray onto the faces of my followers like an alley cat with a jet of civet. So I composed what is the most obsequious tweet I've yet written: "Oh, if I forgot to tell you that Merrill Markoe re-tweeted me and Rob Delaney favorited me yesterday, it's because I am already dead." Mr. Lick, meet Mr. Spittle.
I grant you, my Twitter anxieties are to a large degree those of a newbie. I'm told that the more you tweet and the more followers you have, the less you stress over whether you've returned the favor (but the more trolls you're likely to encounter). In an ideal world, I would have enough followers that my re-tweeting of a nonfamous person's witticism would have the kind of impact that my celebrated colleagues' re-tweeting of my work has had on me.
"It's sort of noblesse oblige to alert people to the unfollowed," said Mr. Richter, who is admirable for often re-tweeting people far less famous than him. "Sure, it feels a little royal doing it. But there are people who deserve it."
John Moe, who hosts the public radio show "Wits," was one person who did it for me. I'd like to tell you how good this made me feel, but first I need to remove my shoulders from my earlobes. In the meantime, I will simply long for a more innocent time, a time when constant self-promotion was less complicated and anxiety-producing. As I posted recently: "I love Twitter. But Facebook will always be my Wasilla."

Nexo GEO T4805 Tangent Array Module
T4805 Vertical Tangent Array Module incorporates the Hyperboloid Reflective Wavesource, the Configurable Directivity Flange, the Directivity Phase Device and an unique DSP-driven cardioid LF section.
Multiple T4805s and T2815s combine to form a single very high output source of coherent acoustic energy. GEOSoft, our compiled Matlab application, makes it easy to determine the wavefront curvature that will deliver equal power to equal areas in any venue. Mixing engineers are discovering that GEO Technology delivers all the detail of a mix to the entire audience. With equal SPL from front to rear of the listening area, the dynamics of the performance are experienced at every seat. GEO systems are smaller, lighter, faster loading and rigging, without sacrificing anything in terms of power, dynamics or detail. Dramatically lower production costs translate to significantly higher profits for owners and operators of GEO systems.
- T4805 can be deployed in horizontal or vertical tangent arrays
- High power, long excursion neodymium 8" woofer delivers full range output from compact enclosures.
- Light weight (13kg per module including precision array assembly system) construction allows GEO tangent arrays to be hung almost anywhere.
- Configurable Directivity Device allows dispersion in the noncoupling plane to change from 80° to 120° through bolt-on flanges that alter the flare of the diffraction slot's exit.
- Directivity Phase Device combines enhanced line source coupling in vertical arrays with extended low frequency response.
- GEOSoft array design software predicts vertical tangent array performance for a wide range of venues.

Google "Georgia," and you are much more likely to get recipes for peach pie than to learn about the unique ex-Soviet republic where wine was invented and a special language and culture survived a thousand years of foreign occupation. Today, it celebrates its links with Europe and America more than its association with the Orient.
In its capital city, Tbilisi, we saw something truly unique in the world: a major avenue named after George W. Bush!
This country of Georgia is a small swatch of land about the size of West Virginia (but with higher mountains!) at the far eastern end of the Black Sea, the bottom of Russia and the top of Iran. Other neighbors include Turkey, Armenia, Azerbaijan and Chechnya. All in all, a dicey neighborhood (which is why they cozied up to George W.)!
So, why go to Georgia? The country is definitely under-touristed. In our two weeks there, we were never even able to locate a map of Tbilisi. But just because the rest of the world hasn't found it, doesn't mean that there aren't some very good reasons to visit.
Foremost on our list was the fabulous cuisine. Tasty, rich and piquant, Georgian cuisine is the natural result of a fertile, mineral-rich landscape and a parade of interloping cultures trading or invading between the East and the West. Staunchly proud of their culture, the Georgians have developed unique foods that are simply not available elsewhere. Think khachapuri, with oozy cheese enveloped in a yeast bread, fourteen varieties to choose from, and each fifty cents or less (things were generally very cheap). Or yummy eggplant with walnut sauce. Or bean stew with a delicious corn muffin sitting on top. Instead of teaspoons of spices, Georgians are apt to add a fistful of coriander or basil, and often use a blend of spices called khmeli suneli that is a complex, fragrant mixture of sour, grassy and nutty flavors.
And the best place to sample the agricultural products is at their source. To do so, we traveled to the wine country of Kakheti in a most spiffy twenty-year-old Mercedes, powered by clean and economical compressed natural gas, which seems to be the fuel of choice here.
Under the gaze of the snowcapped Caucasus Mountains, we stopped at a number of monasteries, a second reason to visit Georgia. One was Ikalto (top), established by Syrian missionaries in the 500's A.D., and the site for the next 1,000 years of the only real higher learning academy in the region. It was burned by Persians in 1616, but still contains the remains of three churches. But even more prominent than the churches are the brothers' wine vaults, which provided the perfect venue to learn how the Georgians produce this nectar. Many archaeologists believe Georgia to be the first to cultivate grapevines over 8,000 years ago, and it is still a major source of domestic and export revenue.
Grapes are grown on every square inch of soil, and, it seemed, in the yard of every home – city and countryside alike. The traditional oenological method: once the grapes have been stomped upon and allowed to ferment (including the peel and seeds, even for white wine), the juice is placed in kvevri, large earthenware vessels lined with beeswax. These are then topped with a wooden lid and buried in the earth – or in a specially prepared wine cellar within one's home – for at least six months. Apparently, this provides an ideal temperature for both maturation and storage.
Now that we knew how wine was produced, it was time to sample some.
Although about four hundred varieties of grapes are grown, only about thirty-eight are produced with any frequency. But that still leaves a lot of tasting to do! We did our tasting at the Gurabi Wine Tunnel complex, where we were ushered into a four-mile-long Soviet tunnel into the mountains that used to house heavy duty missiles and tanks to protect the southern flank of the USSR. Abandoned in the 1990s, it was recently repurposed when it was discovered that it was the perfect temperature (about 55 degrees) for storing wine.
Later that night, we partook of one of the highlights of the trip: a many-course banquet called a supra. In between each course, our wine glasses were re-filled and the tamada offered toasts, starting with general tributes and becoming more and more specific as the evening wore on, with an elegance that evoked the finest of poetry. The final toast was to "everything else we forgot to mention."
Food, wine, and monasteries are definite reasons to make a visit, but we were surprised to find yet another reason: distinctive new public buildings. This was particularly unexpected, since the country seems quite poor and so many of the old buildings were sorely in need of restoration. But although the people have very little money, the government actually has quite a lot. That's because Georgia has the only pipeline route out of the huge Caspian Sea's oil patch not going through Russia or Iran. The government "extracts" large royalties for the right to have oil pass through its boundaries.
One of the things they've used the funds for is reforming the police force away from the corrupt practices it had fallen into. Almost all existing police were fired, pay was raised, and new police stations were built in exotic, futuristic designs. The huge glass expanses symbolize how nothing should happen in back rooms and that the police are there to help the public, not harass it.
Get yourself to Georgia and you'll find that the people are proud, enterprising, good-humored and high-spirited. What's more, guests are considered blessings, and the hospitality Georgians share among themselves and with their visitors is an important part of their lives. Be part of discovering it!

I read this article about authentication methods for SSH
This is what is written there?
During keyboard authentication zero or more prompts (questions) is presented to the user. The user should give the answer to each prompt (question). The number and contents of the questions are virtually not limited, so certain types of automated logins are also possible.
I run SSH server on Ubuntu. My question is how can I add more prompts(questions)? Now it prompts just for the password.
Thank you

Sentai Filmworks Adds Sunday Without God/Kamisama no Inai Nichiyōbi Anime
posted on by Karen Ressler
North American licensing company Sentai Filmworks announced at Anime Expo on Sunday that it has licensed the Kamisama no Inai Nichiyōbi television anime series under the title Sunday Without God. The 12-episode series is slated for release on home video in 2014.
Yuuji Kumazawa (Oda Nobuna no Yabō) is directing off scripts supervised by Tomoko Konparu (Kimi ni Todoke - From Me to You, NANA, Nodame Cantabile). Shinichi Miyamae designed the characters, while Studio Easter is producing the backgrounds. Satoshi Motoyama is serving as sound director, and Hiromi Mizutani (Hell Girl, Toriko, The Wallflower) is scoring the music courtesy of Starchild Records.
Cast members include:
- Aki Toyosaki as Ai
- Daisuke Namikawa as Hanpunii Hanbaato
- Yuko Goto as Hana
- Mamiko Noto as Scar
- Keiji Fujiwara as Yurii Sakuma Domiitoriebicchi
- Tetsuya Kakihara as Kiriko Zuburesuka
- Mikako Komatsu as Urra Eureusu Hekumatika
- Eri Kitamura as Dii Enjii Sutoratomittosu
The fantasy, which is based on a series of light novels by Kimihito Irie, is set 15 years after humans stopped being born and the dead stopped dying, since the world was abandoned by God. That left "Gravekeepers" with the unique task of giving the would-be dead peace. A girl named Ai is the only Gravekeeper in her village; she was born from a Gravekeeper mother and a human father 12 years ago. One day, a boy named Hanpunii Hanbaato appears and begins firing his pistol indiscriminately and setting the village on fire. Hanpunii confronts Ai with the shocking truth.
The anime series premiered in Japan on Saturday, and Crunchyroll is streaming the anime as it airs in Japan.

Charlie Hunnam And Excalibur Are One In First 'King Arthur: Legend Of The Sword' Trailer
And we think Warner Bros. has it tough getting fans excited for Justice League? No, the real difficulty is going to be Guy Ritchie's King Arthur: Legend of the Sword, which feels like an outsider among blockbuster franchises for the studio. The story of Camelot has been done to death, but Ritchie believes he's found a way to make his version fresh, and that's by turning Charlie Hunnam's King Arthur into a bad boy. He told EW recently...
"I think where the pitfall has often been is trying to make King Arthur bland and nice, and nice and bland. The two qualities make rather compatible bed companions. Unfortunately, they're not interesting to watch. Luke Skywalker was always the most uninteresting character in Star Wars because he's the good guy. Good guys are boring."
As a devoted fan of heels everywhere I tend to agree, but that doesn't mean dirtying up Arthur Pendragon is the way to go. That said, Hunnam is pretty good at playing characters with a bit of an edge to him. And clearly he agrees, adding "He's a bit rough around the edges, but he's basically a survivor. There's definitely a harder edge than people would imagine."
The first trailer has dropped at Comic-Con naturally, and it features the quick-cutting style we've come to associate with Ritchie's work. Think the way he was able to turn Sherlock Holmes into a fast-paced action flick and that's what he appears to be doing with Arthur and his Knights of the Roundtable.
Also starring Astrid Berges-Frisbey, Djimon Hounsou, Eric Bana, Jude Law, Aidan Gillen, Annabelle Wallis, and David Beckham (!!!), King Arthur: Legend of the Sword opens March 24th 2017.

I am an amateur SilverStripe hack and I am in a mess.
Background: About three years ago, I put together a website for our church using SS (V2.3.4). It has served us well.
However, I did not upgrade the SS base code. It was working well and I did not have the time to improve the site.
A few days ago our web hosting company upgraded PHP to the latest verson (5.4) and our website went down hard. I suspect either the SS core and/or the and extensions clashed with PHP 5.4.
Since I do not know PHP, I decided to rebuild the site instead of fixing code I do not understand.
Attempt #1: I decided that starting a new SS build (V3.0.5). The new SS build works with a new DB and with my template. But when i link it to the existing Database, the site crashes (I believe the crash is a simple white screen with no error message - I may need to run it again, to record any error message). I cannot get to the original web content.
Attempt #2: I decided to pull the original website down to my laptop and run it local via WampServer. I can dial back the PHP to an older version. I have a generic SS V2,3,4 running in one folder. When I started the church website via WampServer, I got this error:
"[Warning] mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Access denied for user 'sbtindyo_smitty'@'localhost' (using password: YES)"
So I suspect the SQL database is not copied to the local WampServer
Attempt #3: I exported the MySQL database from the original church website. However, Wampserver has a 2Mb limit on importing databases. As luck would have it, the database I have is 5.5Mb in size.
At this time all I want to do is to bring up the website one more time to copy the content to our new SS build. There has to be a better way.
I am open to any suggestions.

BTI's Solution-Focused Webinar Library is growing...
Solution Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), developed by Insoo Kim Berg and Steve de Shazer, is an evidenced-based practice which focuses on clients' inherent strengths and competencies. SFBT helps participants discover their solutions to their challenges instead of focusing on the problems they are currently facing. This future-focused, goal-directed intervention is effective because clients, including small children, experience their own ability to make positive changes efficiently. SFBT succeeds at individual, couple and family levels of engagement because it appeals to the clients' capabilities, whether or not they have recognized these strengths before.
Maintaining a high standard of ethical and professional practice is essential. Respect for each participant's worldview, challenges, and capabilities is inherent in solution-focused practice. This culturally sensitive approach embraces clients' diversity as an opportunity to learn from, and to share knowledge with, each other. Client members are considered experts in their own life experience and each stakeholder's perspective is important, regardless of their unique considerations. The process builds stronger hope for all participating members.
The Brief Therapy Institute (BTI), Department of Family Therapy, College of Arts, Humanities, and Social Sciences at Nova Southeastern University is offering a series of interactive webinar trainings based on the work of Berg and de Shazer. Each SFBT webinar is 2-hour long presentation, followed by a 30 minute Question & Answer session using questions generated in real time by webinar participants. Continuing Education credits are available for licensed professionals, and Certificates of Attendance for non-licensed participants. Each session is timely-scheduled on Fridays from 9:00 am to 11:30 am. Each scheduled session focuses on different applications of a solution-focused approach within diverse contexts. Please find our 2015 schedule below.
Our goal is to offer these presentations to a wide audience of professionals interested in learning about utilizing a Solution Focused Approach (SFA) with diverse clients facing their life challenges. The goal of these trainings is to provide the local and wider community with comprehensive opportunities in the diverse applications of SFBT. These strategies increase the level of skill development for practitioners, including participants from various mental health/social service capacities. And these seminars are effectively priced. Group rates are available.
The majority of sessions will be presented by Arlene Brett Gordon, Ph.D., LMFT, who met Insoo and Steve in 1991 when she was a doctoral student at Nova Southeastern University (NSU), Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Arlene trained and closely worked with Insoo, developing community-based projects in South Florida for over a decade. She began developing trainings in 1993 and has provided workshops of SFBT to a wide array of practitioners internationally. Arlene also develops SFBT programs in collaboration with local community-based agencies. She is also the director of the Brief Therapy Institute, which includes the Family Therapy Clinic, the training facility for the Department of Family Therapy at NSU. She is a AAMFT Clinical Fellow, Florida State and AAMFT Supervisor, and a board member of the newly formed Association of Solution Focused Practitioners (ASFP).
Michael Rolleston, M.S., is currently pursuing his doctoral degree in Family Therapy at Nova Southeastern University. He completed his master's degree in Family Therapy 2013 at NSU. He is a Pre-Clinical Fellow of the AAMFT and is working toward his AAMFT Approved Supervisor credential and Marriage and Family Therapy license in the state of Florida. Michael is trained in SFBT and has been working closely with Dr. Arlene Brett Gordon since 2012. His clinical work incorporates a client-centered style of therapy and focuses on clients' goals, strengths, and resources. Michael currently works with most of his clients in the Family Therapy Clinic at NSU's Brief Therapy Institute, where he is also a Graduate Assistant. He has recently collaborated on a number of SFBT workshops and presentations at the local, national, and international levels.
Jenna Hope Wilson, Ph.D., LMFT pursed both her masters' and doctoral degrees in Marriage and Family Therapy at Nova Southeastern University. She is a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in the state of Florida and a Clinical Fellow of the Association for Marriage and Family Therapy (AAMFT). She is currently a AAMFT Approved Supervisor. Jenna's clinical work incorporates a systemic, hope-focused and strength-based approach. She utilizes SFBT in her work with individuals, couples, and families. Jenna is currently adjunct faculty for NSU's Departments of Family Therapy and Psychology teaching family therapy courses and clinical practicums. She has experience presenting workshops, trainings, and posters at international, national, state, and local conferences.

pro: calorie torching classes & blissful vibes of goodness
con: cost, HOWEVER there is a way to practice for free – yes way!
THE BEST hot yoga studio around! I found this gem back in January 2012 and it transformed my body – SWEAR! Prior to Moksha I only attempted regular yoga classes at my gym and never ventured into Bikram. The thought of Bikram scared me – all my friends said they yell at you, the room smells & you have to do strict moves even if you are tired. Well let me tell you…Moksha is nothing like that! It is a peaceful environment, where the teachers only want to help & inspire you, not yell. The studio does not smell AT ALL & you are not only told, but encouraged to listen to your body & rest, adjust or slow down your practice when needed.
Let me review a few aspects of the Moksha studio in NYC…
- Check in was & is still easy breezy…few pages of paperwork are initially filled out & they run you through the lay of the land. The Intro month is $40 for unlimited classes – hello CHEAP! At the initial check in they give you a swipe card to use for future check- ins.
- Mats, practice towels & towels can be rented, however I have my own so no need to use (bought at TJMaxx so affordable!) and water bottles can be borrowed.
- Locker rooms are nice, have to bring your own lock and they do have showers with all in one wash so you can rinse off after you practice – major plus because you get super sweaty!!
- The yoga studio steams…the temperature ranges from 95-100degrees! and boy does it feel good – you detoxify & stretch like never before! They have a few different types of classes – Moksha, Moksha Flow, Hot Yin, Yang Ying, Karma class & community classes – a complete mix of classes everyday at different times.
- The people are beyond amazing! From the very first day to a year later I still get a very warm welcome whenever I attend a class…they truly care about their community and want everyone to be a part of theirs. (example..they held our wedding day Moksha class for all our family & friends at their studio – it was the perfect way to start our day & got us going!)
SO PLEASE go and get your yoga groove on at Moksha Yoga NYC, you will not regret it!

I had 3 babies while breastfeeding (all planned)... and nursed though all of those pregnancies... completely not true :)
Is it true you can't get pregnant while breastfeeding?
Breastfeeding is supposed to suppress ovulation, but it varies from woman to woman. Some women may not ovulate while they're breastfeeding, but many others will still ovulate.
There is always a chance of pregnancy while breastfeeding. However, you can lower those chances by practicing ecological breastfeeding. Your baby never leaves you, no pacifiers, no bottles, no pumping, and co-sleeping. I have done it with both babies and it has worked for me so far. I didn't ovulate until 14 months postpartum with my first child. I am hoping for that again!
I am pregnant with my fourth, and it is my third child conceived not only while breastfeeding but also while on a hormone only birth control pill. It is VERY possible to get pregnant while breastfeeding!
totally not true... you can still get pregnant while breastfeeding best thing i did was get the iud put in, not the mirena (5 year) but the one without hormones (10 year)....
Not true I gpot pregnant 3 times while breastfeeding
Ha ha ha ha ha No!
No :) I got pregnant with my 4th when I was nursing my 3rd. If anything, breastfeeding makes you more fertile. Don't be duped by the lack of menstrual cycle.
Yes, you CAN get pregnant while breastfeeding! This is a myth! Even after a miscarriage, it can happen. Protect yourself, either girl or guy so a 'little blessing' doesn't come along in 9 months! :o)
I too got pregnant while breast feeding. It was planned and took about 6 months to happen. Meaning, when my 1st child was 6 months old, I got my period back even though I was nursing him. Then 6 months later when he turned 1 (while still breast feeding) I finally got PG with baby #2. I continued to nurse until baby #2 was born and tandum nursed 2 more months. Then I weaned the first kid off. While nursing the 2nd baby, I got PG again right after he turned 1 year but lost that baby. I continued to nursed the 2nd baby till he was 16 months old. I do not feel any connection to breast feeding and the miscarriage. That was just meant to be.
Not really. I have gotten pregnant twice while breastfeeding.
Breastfeeding is NOT a form of contraception but rather a form of natural family spacing, so the answer is yes.
Using the billings method to work out when you are ovulating and when you are not ovulating may help during the transition from being non fertile to fertile whilst breastfeeding. This knowledge helped me a lot with this issue as I had been using the billings method for over 5 years prior to falling pregnant. THis is a natural method of contraception.

The NFL has today changed it's domestic violence policy in light of the 2-game suspension that Baltimore Ravens Runningback Ray Rice received earlier this month. The policy entails that ALL NFL personnel will now receive a 6-game ban for a first offense, and a lifetime (that's right, your whole life) ban from football. Note that players will still be allowed to appeal this process (meaning that if you're famous enough or you have enough money, you may still be able to get out of punishment, just like America!).
Further details on this policy change to follow.

Neurotransmitters are used to pass messages along through the body and the brain. Two of these neurotransmitters are called serotonin and dopamine. Both are stored in brain cells. While serotonin helps us feel good, happy, and stable, dopamine is associated with your mental alertness, concentration, energy, sex drive and motivation. When either of these levels is too low, you may need medication.
Decide why you feel you need to have the levels checked. Are you currently on medication and want to see if your dopamine and serotonin levels are responding? Are you just curious? Your doctor has a responsibility to order tests that are billed to insurance only if he feels the tests are medically necessary.
Schedule an appointment with your physician.
Discuss your concerns with the physician. If the physician's office offers lab services, your blood can be drawn at the office. Otherwise, you will have to go to a lab to have your blood drawn.
The lab will send the results of your tests to your physician's office. Either the doctor or his staff will contact you with the results. If the levels are abnormal, you may need to schedule a repeat visit to discuss the results in detail.
Most recent
- Dopamine can be measured with a urine test or a blood test. Your doctor will choose whichever he thinks is appropriate.

Hey guys,
SO...I was feeling confident in my understanding of the various uses of const with pointer declarations to restrict how they function...I was doing fine until I came across a bit of code that I modified thinking that a const pointer to const would do fine...tell me what I'm missing here...here's the full code minus the preprocessor directives and I'm using the std namespace:
Ok...so...the const pointer to const was my addition and the logic behind it is I just don't see any change to the value of the element in the function...so why do I get a compile error? Any insight would be very very helpful...even looking over it now, all I'm doing is accessing a value...I'm not altering it...anyways, any help would be great. Thanks, ChapCode://returns a pointer to a string element string * ptrToElement(const vector<string> * const pVec, int element); int main() { vector<string> inventory; inventory.push_back("sword"); inventory.push_back("shield"); cout << "Sending the object pointed to by a return pointer:\n"; cout << *(ptrToElement(&inventory, 1)) << endl; return 0; } string * ptrToElement(const vector<string> * const pVec, int i) { return &((*pVec)[i]); }

June Letter From Pastor Reggie
Another great day is fastly approaching – Father's Day.
I'm so thankful to see families growing in the things of God.
We serve such a great and loving heavenly Father – His goodness and presence is clearly seen in the life of our church!
When I think about the Family of God I am filled with so much comfort and joy in my heart knowing that God is our heavenly Father.
Everyone at some point in life will know what it's like to not have a father. Some of us didn't have a father growing up, while others will experience theirs passing away. But God is a father that never leaves us! In Psalm 68:5, God promises that He is "a father of the fatherless." No matter where we are in life, our Father is there for us. He has your best interest in mind and is a safe haven for us to run to. He will never turn us away. What a blessing it is to have a heavenly Father and to worship Him in Spirit and in truth!
Speaking of fathers, I hope you will join with me in honoring all the Dads in the house on Sunday, June 21st, as we celebrate Father's Day! Worshiping together as the family of God is one of the greatest things we get to do as a church.
Don't miss this great opportunity to invite your family and friends to hear the Word and experience God's presence!
Pastor Reggie

The California Water Quality Monitoring Council was established in 2007 and is part of the State Water Resources Department. The Council has worked to create strategies for monitoring and assessing the state's water quality.
Jon Marshack, the Council's executive director, said there are six interagency workgroups focused on various aspects of water quality from the health of wetlands to whether water is safe for swimming.
Marshack said blending the data from more than 20 state and federal agencies and other organizations takes time.
"Looking at source water, whether it be streams or groundwater, and then bringing those through all the processes that are involved and all the agencies that have a role to play in bringing that water to the person's tap," said Marshack.
He said the council is working to evaluate the water quality.
"We are tackling what is probably one of the most difficult water quality questions: 'how safe is our water to drink," said Marshack.
Marshack said sometime in 2015, Californians will be able to use a website to see the source and quality of their water.

Top of the first Sophomore Becky Collins hit a single but was left on base as the Lady Lions were quickly shut down at the plate. Anderson scored first with a HBP and then a homerun by the Lady Trojans. The Lions would remain scoreless until the top of the 6th when Mary Baxter was HBP and then Becky Collins tripled to right center, bringing Baxter in. Overall the Lions would fall to the Trojans 10-1.
In game two the Lady Lions would hold a strong defense against the Trojans as Madison Hopper shut down the Trojan offense. The Lady Lions would have several good hits from Sophomore Becky Collins, Freshman Meredith Reece, and Mary Baxter; however, the Lions would remain scoreless and fall to the Trojans 1-0.
The Lady Lions will take on Albany State at their place on Saturday, February 25th, 2017 at 1:00pm and 3:00pm.

The story says a former colleague remembers Best getting his start as a freelance photographer with the Sun when in high school. In the 1990s, he moved to Montreal to work for Reuters.
"It's a real shock," Winnipeg Sun photographer Brian Donogh says in the story. "He was a friendly guy and very hardworking. He was dedicated to his work and had a real touch for sports photography."
Other Tweets from journalists indicate Best was scheduled to travel to Boston to shoot tonight's Game 6 of the Stanley Cup.

Deadlifting is very much in vogue. It's fashionable to setup to the bar, and load the weights until it bends… but is it necessary?
To that end, we should ask ourselves, "Why do I deadlift?"
Reason #1: Deadlifting Makes Me Strong
Many use the deadlift as their measure of strength. However it's important to first define what "strength" is.
For the typical gym rat, strength is usually load-based, or simply how much weight they can lift. In this context, the deadlift makes perfect sense, as it's a stable, predictable, and easy to groove movement.
But in athletics it isn't nearly as cut and dried. How many times have we seen wrestlers, gymnasts, martial artists, etc., that are strong in their chosen sport, yet can't pull to save their lives?
To that end, if you're strong in your sport and dominating the competition, does your deadlifting prowess even matter?
Before we can establish a correlation of strength to a given activity, we need to assess how accurately it challenges our body in specific measures relevant to that activity. The problem with using the deadlift is that it's easy to mask and compensate for deficiencies in many areas. Therefore, we must question if it's truly an accurate measure of "functional" strength, which brings us to reason number two.
Reason #2: Deadlifting is Functional
Coaches often say the deadlift carries over to many daily functions. The truth of the matter is that the deadlift has many holes in its translation to most sporting and daily functions.
The deadlift, while a free weight movement, is movement in only one dominant plane, sagittal. However, most daily and sporting activities require us to move and stabilize in many planes of motion.
Furthermore, according to back expert Stuart McGill, the majority of low back issues are not due to maximal strength issues, but rather poor strength-endurance and bad motor patterns. Because the deadlift is such a stable and grooved exercise, it's easy to build compensation patterns that could actually be detrimental to our low back health.
Finally, concerning sporting performance, legendary biomechanics expert and one of the first U.S. coaches to spend time with Soviet sport coaches, Dr. Michael Yessis, states that the Russians found two main causes of injury:
Extreme range of motion
Eccentric load
Leaning too hard on the deadlift for "sport performance training" can be misleading as neither of these two variables are addressed. Fact is, many coaches remove the eccentric component of the deadlift altogether.
Reason #3: It Works the Posterior Chain
The synergy of the hamstrings, glutes, and low back to produce power and strength is an extremely important component to many sports. Yet there are many ways to accomplish this other than just performing deadlifts.
The basic hip hinge component of deadlifting is vital to learn for both performance and low back health. But as we continue to add load, this basic point of deadlifting could be potentially lost.
The term "optimal strength" refers to the point in loading where the chosen lift ceases to provide a carryover to the performance goal.
This is extremely important when training athletes as trying to make an athlete go from a 450-pound deadlift to 500 pounds may come at a significant cost to their movement skills, but have little benefit to their performance.
For the non-powerlifting lifter, the same decisions need to be made in programming. Can we get the same or similar effect but with less spinal compressive movements?
Reason #4: I Like Lifting Heavy Stuff
I won't argue this point – heck, it's fun to lift big loads off the ground. I used to enjoy it as well, but I noticed that the heavier my loads got, the more time I had to spend warming-up, pre-habbing, doing corrective exericse, etc. It seemed as though more time was spent preparing and healing from the lift than actually training.
As a coach it can be a trap to make our clients perform the methods and drills we love to do ourselves. Yet if we start to look at our programs with a critical eye, we may be able to develop far more effective programs and still move well and be strong!
What Do I Do?
The deadlift can serve as a great base for teaching the hip hinge and developing some general strength. However, we should look to progress after we establish these patterns at appropriate loads. Progressing doesn't mean loading the deadlift to Elite proportions, but moving to more complex patterns of movement, speed, and body position.
The Influence of Single-Leg Training
I know, no one ever wants to wear the "90-pound dumbbell single-leg deadlift club" T-shirt, but these movements may take your training and performance further than joining the 600-pound deadlift club.
At a certain point the bilateral lifts have diminishing returns. As loads get heavier, shearing forces and spinal compression diminish movement quality, not to mention increase the risk of injury. This is where single-limb movements start to really shine.
Interestingly, here the benefits of single-leg training have little to do with promoting "symmetry" but rather providing a form of asymmetrical loading.
Asymmetrical loading exercises effectively train trunk and spinal stability. As McGill notes, "Though the spine remains upright, it's subject to enormous compressive, bending, twisting, and shearing loads."
While we're seeing some of these drills appear in more training programs, their versatility, progression, and complexity have yet to be maximized. The following exercises are a very good start. (I've also included a video at the end of the descriptions that shows how to do each of these movements.)
In the end, it's best for you to execute good programming, starting with cycling movements and determining if deadlifts are even the answer to your training goals.
Remember, the really cool kids aren't the ones hitting deadlift PR's – they're the ones achieving their training goals.

Fatigue resistance is very important for muscle growth. After all, the less you tire, the more reps and sets you can complete, and the greater the drive for muscle growth. There are number of supplements on the market that claim to decrease muscular fatigue, but none have received more scientific support than beta alanine. Here is a primer on the research backed benefits to beta alanine supplementation.
What is beta alanine and where does it come from?
Beta alanine is a non-proteinogenic amino acid, meaning that it is not involved in synthesizing proteins. As a dietary source, foods don't generally contain beta alanine in high concentration. Rather, it is formed in the body by the hydrolysis of di-peptides (i.e., carnosine, anserine, and balanine) when we eat protein-rich foods (like fish, chicken, and beef). The liver is also capable of synthesizing beta alanine from pyrimidine neucleotides, through uracil and thymine degradation.
Fatigue resistance is very important for muscle growth. The less you tire, the more reps and sets you can complete.
How does it work?
Carnosine is produced in skeletal muscle from beta alanine and histidine, where beta alanine is the rate limiting factor; thus, when beta alanine is available in surplus (i.e., supplemented) it elevates the body's muscle carnosine levels. In fact, it has been shown that dietary supplementation of beta alanine for only 4 weeks can increase muscle carnosine levels by more than 60%.
Scientists were first motivated to understand how elevating muscle carnosine levels may help exercise performance based on the following: 1) animals who have a great capacity for prolonged high intensity exercise also have high intramuscular carnosine levels; and 2) carnosine levels are relatively higher in fast-twitch versus slow twitch muscle fibers. Since then, research has also found that bodybuilders have elevated carnosine levels in quadriceps (vastus lateralus) muscle.
The main mechanism by which high muscle carnosine levels aid in muscle function and performance is through its ability to significantly buffer skeletal muscle pH (acidity) during high intensity/fatiguing exercise. Since one of the primary causes of fatigue during exercise is metabolically mediated decreases in pH (or acidosis), then it follows that increased intramuscular carnosine levels would be beneficial to bodybuilders. It must also be mentioned that muscle carnosine also acts as a potent antioxidant and metal chelator. As such, through its effects on free radical scavenging, many scientists hypothesize that high carnosine levels prolong neuromuscular excitation-contraction coupling.
In resistance trained men, 4-weeks of beta-alanine supplementation led to a 22% increase in the number of reps they could complete during an experimental resistance-training session (compared to a placebo group).

Since beta alanine acts to increase muscle carnosine levels and buffer changes in pH, then it follows that its erogogenic potential would be most apparent during high intensity exercise where there are increases in lactic acid. In one study, beta alanine supplementation was shown to improve anaerobic threshold and increase the power output achieved at lactate threshold. In a congruent study, it was observed that women who took beta alanine had an almost 14% increase in the ventilatory threshold during maximal cycling exercise. These data indicate that beta alanine supplementation leads to a great decrease in acidity in muscle cells, which allows you to workout harder with less lactate build-up, thus delaying fatigue. In resistance trained men, 4-weeks of beta-alanine supplementation led to a 22% increase in the number of reps they could complete during an experimental resistance-training session (compared to a placebo group). Additionally, in football players undergoing a strength-training regimen, 30-days of beta alanine supplementation, resulted in significantly higher training volume and lower subjective indices of fatigue compared to those who took a placebo.
Finally, studies have also shown that beta alanine supplementation can delay neuromuscular fatigue. Research has shown that 28-days of supplementation can increase the work capacity at fatigue threshold. Interestingly, a subsequent study conducted by the same research team showed no effect of creatine supplementation on decreasing neuromuscular fatigue; thus, illustrating that this effect is unique to beta alanine supplementation. These benefits of beta alanine supplementation on neuromuscular fatigue are likely due the enhanced antioxidant effects from the resulting elevated carnosine levels.
Beta alanine and sports performance enhancement
A recent study looked at beta alanine supplementation on rowing performance in elite level rowers. Rowers either took 5g of beta alanine or a placebo and were evaluated during a 2000 m rowing ergometer test. The researchers found that those who took beta alanine completed the 2000 m test 4.3 seconds faster than those who took the placebo. The performance benefits in the beta alanine group correlated with up to 45% greater carnosine content in their calf muscles. In another investigation, elite cyclists were given either beta alanine (2-4g) or a placebo for 8 weeks and tested on cycling sprint performance after a 110-min simulated endurance road race. It was found that average power and peak power (during sprinting) increased by 5 and 11% respectively in the beta alanine group compared to placebo.
Beta alanine and body composition
It should come as no surprise that training with beta alanine supplementation has been associated with improvements in body composition. After all, with delayed or decreased fatigue and increased training volume, your training sessions become more laborious. In a recently published study, it was found that those who completed a high intensity interval training program combined with beta alanine supplementation had improved gains in lean mass and fat loss compared to those who trained while taking a placebo. In an earlier study, researchers found stacking beta alanine with creatine led to synergistic increases in lean body mass in college football players undergoing a resistance-training regimen.
This amino acid is generally safe to take in moderate doses; however high single doses (>800 mg) have been shown to cause tingling/numbness (paresthesia) in hands and skin that disappear within an hour of ingesting. One other concern is that high doses of beta alanine may create an osmotic gradient that can decrease the body's taurine levels (taurine is important for the maintenance of healthy heart function). As such, using a moderate dosing schedule will assure that you get all of the performance benefits, with no side effects.
As you can see, beta alanine is an interesting ergogenic supplement that has received a ton of scientific investigation over the past 5 years. Although there is little to no evidence showing its direct effects on anabolism or strength gains, there is an abundance research illustrating its positive effects on fatigue resistance.

Q: If 4×10 [as in the 4X technique] is so effective at achieving both power and density for developing maximum muscle mass, why would one bother with 10×10? You wrote that a trainee should stay on 10×10 for only three to four weeks since doing it longer may compromise the power component. If you believe 4×10 is clearly superior, why waste time on 10×10?
A: Well, 10×10 is a pure-density shock tactic that can produce big gains in muscle size quickly—and you do it only on one key exercise for each bodypart. That means it takes only 10 minutes to thoroughly and completely blast a muscle into the endurance-component growth zone—but we recommend the pure-density approach only for a four-week shock phase.
Because 10×10 is all density, it's ideal to use it for a time after six weeks of multi-angular power-style training—which is what most trainees do all the time.
That's precisely why so many people respond so well to 10×10 density training—because they've been on methodical power-oriented workouts for so long. That's due to the common misconception that only heavy weights build muscle mass. Not true. A change to pure-density training can instantly create new muscle gains, specifically in the sarcoplasm of the 2A mass fibers. Nevertheless, 10×10 can be monotonous after three to four weeks, so I recommend moving to something else—like 4X.
4X is more balanced, giving you power and density. You use a heavier weight than for 10X10 because you do only four sets with 30 seconds' rest between them. If you get 10 reps on your fourth set, you add weight to that exercise at your next workout.
Standard 4X sequences, just like 10×10, can become monotonous. That's one reason we've been experimenting with 3X pyramids—adding weight on each set with a 30-second rest between sets. Those provide more power with two weight increases and lower reps on each successive set—10, nine, seven. It's more power-oriented than standard 4X.
If that's still not heavy enough to satisfy your need for power-style training, you can always alternate a power-style workout with one that has more density-oriented sets. That, as well as many more power-density training methods are explained in our new free e-book, Secrets to Ultimate Muscle Growth, available at X-Rep.com and IronManMagazine.com. I'm mentioning it a second time because it contains so much critical information about how muscles grow and the type of training that builds extreme size. As I said, it's free, so you've got nothing to lose—and loads of muscle to gain.

Sports scientists used to think that the only way to burn fat was to do long sessions of moderate exercise, but recent studies have shown that short high-intensity training sessions also work. The fat burning doesn't only happen during the intensive sessions, but goes on afterwards too. This is the phenomenon known as EPOC. Greek sports scientists discovered that over 65s can benefit from this way of exercising too, especially if they train with heavy weights.
The 40 men in the Greek study, which was published in Diabetes Care, were all on the heavy side, with an average BMI of 29. Although not physically active, they were healthy.
The researchers got the men to train for an hour. During the workout the men trained all of their large muscle groups, doing 3 sets of basic exercises.
The men were divided into 4 groups. The low-intensity group trained using weights of 45-50 percent of their 1RM and rested for 2 minutes between sets. The moderate-intensity group trained with 60-65 percent of their 1RM and rested for 4 minutes between sets. The high-intensity group trained with 80-85 percent of their 1RM and took 6-minute breaks between sets. The control group did nothing.
The low-intensity group burned 296 calories during the workout; the moderate-intensity group 282 calories and the high-intensity group 222 calories. The lactic acid level and concentrations of free fatty acids and glycerol [fat burning indicators] rose least during the high-intensity training session.
In the days following the training session, the adiponectin level remained considerably higher in the high-intensity group. Adiponectin is a hormone that makes muscles extract more nutrients from the blood. The cortisol level was lower in the high-intensity group than the other groups after the training session.
The high-intensity group had a raised energy expenditure [REE] for days after the test. During the period that the researchers took measurements, the men in the high-intensity group burned several hundred calories more. The energy was spent on helping the body to recover from the strength training. Almost all of this energy for EPOC is derived from fat.
"Overweight older men may benefit from training with a frequency of two to three resistance exercise sessions per week", the Greeks conclude. "In addition, it appears that all resistance exercise schemes induce marked energy expenditure." We take the liberty of adding that it's training with heavy weights that drives up the calorie burning.

Inspired by the rain forest's deep orchid hues at dusk, Tarte Cosmetics limited-edition Rainforest After Dark Collection for Fall has everything you need to create day to night looks. New primers create a flawless canvas, while the Colored Clay Eye and Cheek Palette has everything you need for a sultry and sophisticated look.
Highlights of the Tarte Cosmetics limited-edition Rainforest After Dark Collection for Fall include the following products that I previewed:
Rainforest After Dark Colored-Clay Eye and Cheek Palette, $38.
Included in this palette are six eyeshadows [Bare to Explore (pink beige), Make a Mauve (plum mauve), Plum Away with Me (dark plum), Up to No Gold (gold), Tan-gled Up in You (tan), Don't Turn A-Brown (dark brown)], Bronzer in Park Avenue Princess™, Blush in Unleashed (nude rose) and Highlighter in Champagne.
Clean Slate Timeless Smoothing Primer, $39
Colored Clay CC Undereye Corrector, $24
Colored Clay CC Eye Primer Stick, $19
The star of this collection is undoubtedly the Rainforest After Dark Colored Clay Eye & Cheek Palette. From the gorgeous packaging (which features a snake with jeweled-eye!) to the complementary colors inside, I was beyond impressed with this palette. The eyeshadow has excellent pigmentation, with a silky feel to it. Application was easy, even without a primer. And the shades–from the mauve to plum shades…seriously beautiful. Also included is a guide to help you with suggested looks. I'm usually not a fan of "all in one" palettes, because undoubtedly there are shades you don't use, but not in this case.
The face products, which include Park Avenue Princess™ Bronzer, a blush and highlighter also wear well and are infused with colored clay, meaning that there is true color payoff. Of the three face products, the blush in Unleashed is my favorite. The color is universally flattering and lasts all day.
The other products I tried were the Clean Slate Timeless Smoothing Primer, Colored Clay CC Eye Primer Stick and Colored Clay CC Undereye Corrector. The Clean Slate Timeless Smoothing Primer comes in a jar, which is different than most other primers I use. I like the formula, which contains Vitamins C, E and Green Bean Extract, which helps to minimize the appearance of pores, firms and smooths skin. It leaves skin with a "soft-focus" look before makeup; very nice.
The Colored Clay CC Eye Primer Stick is a neutral shade; when applied this eye primer holds product for a crease-free, all-day wear. The color-correcting pigments make for a universal shade and works well if you have dark eyelids.
The Colored Clay CC Undereye Corrector comes in two shades; I tried Light-Medium. Since it's a solid product, I found it easiest to apply with a concealer brush. It blends into the delicate undereye skin and effectively camouflages dark circles. I liked that it didn't dry out the undereye area or accentuate fine lines.
The Tarte Cosmetics limited-edition Rainforest After Dark Collection for Falls on sale now in department stores, including Sephora and at tartecosmetics.com. Overall, an exceptional collection…don't miss that palette!

Obtaining a Mechanic's Lien in Washington
In Washington, any licensed contractor, subcontractor, or supplier who furnishes labor, professional services, materials, or equipment is entitled to claim a mechanic's lien. Every person claiming a lien must file and record a notice of claim of lien, in the county where the subject property is located, no later than ninety (90) days after the person has ceased to furnish labor, professional services, materials, or equipment or the last date on which employee benefit contributions were due. See R.C.W. 60.04.091.
The notice of claim of lien must contain the following information: (1) the name, phone number, and address of the claimant; (2) the first and last date on which the labor, professional services, materials, or equipment was furnished or employee benefit contributions were due; (3) the name of the person indebted to the claimant; (4) the street address, legal description, or other description reasonably calculated to identify, for a person familiar with the area, the location of the real property to be charged with the lien; (5) the name of the owner or reputed owner of the property, if known, and, if not known, that fact shall be stated; and (6) the principal amount for which the lien is claimed. See R.C.W. 60.04.091(1).
The claim of lien must be signed by the claimant or some person authorized to act on his or her behalf who shall affirmatively state they have read the notice of claim of lien and believe the notice of claim of lien to be true and correct under penalty of perjury. See R.C.W. 60.04.091(2). If the lien has been assigned, the name of the assignee must also be stated. Id. The lien claim must also be signed in the presence of a licensed notary who then notarizes the document with his or her seal or signature. Id.
Since the lien must be filed and recorded no later the ninety days following the last furnishing, no action to foreclose a lien can be maintained unless the claim of lien is filed for recording within the ninety-day period stated. See Id.
The lien claimant must also serve a copy of the claim of lien to the owner or reputed owner by mailing it by certified or registered mail or by personal service within fourteen (14) days of the time the claim of lien is filed for recording. Id. Failure to do so results in a forfeiture of any right the claimant may have to attorneys' fees and costs. Id.

I'm blogging from my phone… So, if this post has an excessive amount of spelling mistakes and the grammar is nonexistent, know that it's because I'm blogging from my phone!
Without further ado, let's get cracking with the post… Yes, you'll be pleased to know that I've taken time out from pooping on the bog (caused by chocolate) to discuss shamPOO! To each their own, right?!
Anyway, L'Oréal Fibrology is benefitial for those who suffer from hair thinning and/or those who have fine hair. Although I don't particularly suffer from either, I just think that my bob needs a bit more volume, something which this gives.
A breakthrough in the science of hair, L'Oréal Laboratories have created L'Oreal Elvive Fibrology Thickening Shampoo, proven to give long-lasting thickness wash after wash.Hair looks & feels thicker, with visible body & bounce.
A patented ingredient proven to penetrate the fibre and expand hair from within
Penetrates deep within the fibre
Expands & increases the diameter of each hair
Remains in the fibre for a long-lasting, cumulative effect.
I've got to be honest, I've tried a lot of shampoos, and plenty of them don't work well on me. Literally, the only ones that work are the ones I've reviewed on here. Label M, Garnier Ultimate Blends and Head & Shoulders are legit the only ones that have worked. But, L'Oréal's Elvive Fibrology is a game changer. Like monopoly, but not…
Good points: I actually noticed a change in thickness and volume from the first wash. It was incredible. My friends and family noticed the difference, for once – my natural curls looked fuller and as though I'd took time and effort to curl them properly. If you're a regular to this blog, you'd know that I spend 0 hours. 0 minutes and 0 seconds on hair styling each day. I literally wake up, spray some Lisap and whip my hair back & forth like Willow Smith, and leave. That's my haircare life.
Bad points: there are none imo.
I was even surprised about how it didn't grease up my hair quicker. My hair gets greasy pretty quickly (if I use the wrong hair products). I used to wash my hair every three days… However, with Fibrology, I can go a strong five (washing the rest of my body every day, FYI)!
If you know much about hair, you'll know that it's bad to wash your hair every day. Apparently, we should wash our hair once or twice a week maximum (depending on our hair type). The rest of the care be done through serums etc.
Famous last words: I agree. Everything in the product description is rightly put. No false advertising there.

Readers of this blog know that we live with a flock of parrots, currently numbering nine, including five macaws, two African greys, a Goffin's cockatoo, and a Budgie parrot. Well, we also have an additional parrot, that we haven't much noted. This parrot lives out back. This parrot is carnivorous! This parrot also lives with a flock of its own, so to speak.
We're speaking of the Parrot Pitcher plant, Sarracenia psittacina.
Not our Parrot Pitcher, but an interesting video of the Parrot Pitcher.
Why is a Parrot Pitcher plant called a Parrot Pitcher? Because the head of the stalk vaguely resembles a parrot's beak.
In late summer, the Parrot Pitcher (as does other pitcher plants) shoots up a striking flower on a tall stalk. Typically the flowers tower above the plant. The idea is to get bees to pollinate the plant, not get eaten by the plant!
Our carnivorous flock: The Yellow Trumpet to the left (Sarracenia flava), Purple Pitcher center (Sarracenia purpurea), and Parrot Pitcher.
The young shoots of the Yellow Trumpet tower over the Parrot Pitcher.
Gorgeous Yellow Trumpet flower just left of center.
The towering stalks of the Yellow Trumpet remind us of parrot chicks with their mouths open, waiting to be fed!
Close-up view of the Yellow Trumpet flower.
Wondering how well these guys eat? Each stalk is stuffed to the brim with flies and wasps!
Why the insects don't just back out of the stalk once they go in.
Nice to have at least one parrot that can feed itself!
