As we age our skin loses collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid. The result is fine lines, wrinkles, and laxity or "loose skin." Areas like the cheeks, eyebrows, jowls, and neck can be strongly affected by sagging skin. Loss of fat pad volume in the mid face further compounds the problem, leading to an overall worn and fatigued appearance to the face. While it might seem like sagging facial areas can only be treated by major, invasive surgeries, having a thread lift is a great alternative for those who aren't ready to "go under the knife." Because it's noninvasive, the thread lift is also a great opportunity to maintain the results of a facelift or neck lift that may have diminished over time.
So, How Does a Thread Lift Work?
A thread lift procedure is performed by inserting state-of-the-art absorbable sutures under the skin using a fine needle or cannula. A thread lift can perform a wide variety of rejuvenation treatments:
- Lift sagging eyebrows
- Lift sagging skin on the cheeks
- Soften deep nasolabial folds (the furrows between the mouth and the nose)
- Lift sagging tissues around the jaws
- Lift sagging tissue on the neck and in some body areas as well
There are different types of absorbable threads used for the thread lift, discussed below. All of the threads at Renew MediSpa are completely absorbable, and they're composed of materials that stimulate collagen growth and skin healing. A thread lift requires no incisions, and there are no scars that develop afterwards.
Dr. Vuich was trained in thread lifting initially in the United Kingdom by Professor Bob Khanna, a leader in the field of facial aesthetics and the President and Founder of the IAAFA (International Academy of Advanced Facial Aesthetics). Dr. Vuich was also trained in the United States by the American Institute of Aesthetic Medicine. Renew MediSpa offers several types of threads, sometimes used in combination: Novathreads, EuroThreads®, MINT PDO threads and Silhouette Instalift® sutures.
PDO Threads
EuroThreads® are two brands of PDO Thread available for use in the United States. They can be used to improve skin laxity on the face or body with a basic, in-office procedure which is quite safe and has negligible downtime. EuroThreads® are made out of a dissolvable material called PDO (polydiaxanone), a substance which has been used surgically in the United States for many decades. PDO is widely considered to be one of the safest materials to be implanted in the body.
There are two types of PDO threads: Smooth and Barbed. The smooth PDO threads are placed often in a mesh pattern in the skin, much like a net. This mesh serves as a foundation for new collagen production, allowing the skin around the area to be naturally rejuvenated. The barbed threads also stimulate collagen, but they additionally have an irregular surface that "catches" the skin and is able to re-position it. With barbed sutures patients can have instant results which then improve further as collagen forms around the threads.
MINT PDO threads are especially suited for those with more advanced laxity and "heavier" facial tissues. With expert placement they are able to improve facial contours in clients who would have been deemed "not an ideal candidate" for other forms of PDO thread lifting.
EuroThreads also offers a twist suture made of PLLA (poly-L lactic acid)- a potent collagen stimulator which is the same material used for Sculptra® injections.
The thread lift results can last up to a year but possibly longer with the Silhouette InstaLift® sutures. Overall, duration of effect will depend on many factors including
- the number of threads inserted
- the degree of laxity and collagen loss
- the individual patient's rate of collagen loss/aging- which is dependent on lifestyle, age and genetics
In general, you should expect to need to maintain your results in the same way that you maintain dermal filler and neurotoxin results, for example, with regular adjustments over time according to your aesthetic goals.
Using EuroThreads®, or Silhouette InstaLift® sutures doesn't prevent a surgical option in the future, but it also can be a forerunner to other surgical and non-surgical techniques.
Is Thread Lifting Safe?
The original thread lift came out in the late '90s and was performed up until the mid-2000s. The procedure fell out of favor due to inferior technology and complications. The biggest problem with the older thread lifts was that they had to be anchored into the scalp, temple, and brow region. The knots for anchoring had to be tied carefully in order to not have the suture release from the anchor site, and the suture was permanent, making any further surgery later in life more challenging. Newer technology utilizing absorbable PDO threads and Silhouette InstaLift® PLLA sutures does not require anchoring to deep tissue structures.
Another challenge with older thread lifts was that the skin could only be pulled in one direction, which made the results appear two dimensional. The older procedures also required over-pulling of the skin to get a good result, making the downtime more significant. The techniques now employed in placing newer threads or sutures leads to a more natural look, with gentle skin repositioning and ongoing collagen stimulation.
Does a Thread Lift Replace Dermal Fillers?
Thread lifts won't be replacing dermal fillers, because they cannot volumize as much as dermal fillers can. However, using Eurothreads®, and/or Silhouette InstaLift® sutures in addition to dermal fillers can create a look that is both natural and long lasting.
"Trying to lift 'too much' with volume is what creates those big, overblown, unnatural looking upper faces you may see around town or in the media." says Dr. Vuich "Eurothreads® , and Silhouette InstaLift® sutures give us the ability to reposition skin gently, without adding unwanted volume. Combined with the judicious use of dermal filler volume in areas such as the mid cheek for example, we are able to provide that immediate gratification of lift and volume along with ongoing collagen stimulation that can lead to improved results over time. When we want to take this to an even higher level, we add platelet rich plasma (PRP) to the mix for what we call the Idun Lift. It's another way in non-surgical aesthetics that we utilize combinations of procedures to achieve maximum results, without a knife."
Introducing Pro-Nox!
Renew Medispa is excited to offer Pro-Nox, a nitrous oxide gas which you can use during your procedure, for reducing pain and inducing a pleasurable feeling.
Fast acting, safe, and short duration- It is the ideal clinical pain reliever and anti-anxiety measure, which can further enhance your comfort during procedures.
Silhouette Instalift® Sutures
The Silhouette InstaLift® procedure is performed at our Windham center under local anesthesia.This means that small amounts of lidocaine are injected into the skin in the area to be treated, to make the procedure as comfortable as possible. The sutures are carefully inserted into the deeper layers of the skin (the target depth is roughly 5mm). Once those sutures are in place, Dr. Vuich can massage and lift the skin thanks to the bi-directional cones located along the suture. On average, this thread lift takes less than an hour to perform.
The Silhouette Instalift® is a little different from the Eurothreads® technique. Although both use absorbable threads, Silhouette Instalift® has absorbable trumpet-shaped cones configured to grab and engage tissue, allowing the sutures to create a lifting and volumizing effect. These bi-directional cones are designed specifically to latch on to tissue effectively.
Silhouette InstaLift's sutures encourage the production of collagen, giving patients a one-two punch of rejuvenation: the mechanical lift from the suture and the restorative powers of PLLA- (poly-L lactic acid)-a potent collagen stimulating material which makes up about 87% of the suture's structure. PLLA is the same material that Sculptra® aesthetic is composed of.
How Do I Decide Which Procedure Is Best?
Dr. Vuich will consult with you on which procedure will align best with your goals and expectations. At Renew MediSpa we understand that it can be very confusing when you look at all of the options available for facial rejuvenation. We are experts in helping you navigate your choices and make the best decision you can. Some of the factors taken into consideration in selecting your best course of action include:
- Your personal preference and your past experience with procedures
- Your goals and expectations, which need to be realistic. We have some amazing procedures which can produce "near surgical" results, but we are not surgeons.
- Your anatomy and the degree of sun damage and/or age-related changes and volume loss that you have
- The body region of concern
- Your timetable- how quickly do you need to see improvement
- Your budget
- Any associates medical issues or restrictions you may have
- Your tolerance for "downtime"- things like swelling, bruising and soreness, for example
Recovering from a full facelift surgery can take several months, while recovery from a thread lift can be much shorter. Side effects like swelling, bruising, and tenderness from the thread lift should dissipate after a week.
Dr. Vuich will provide complete post procedure instructions to make sure you have a successful recovery.

What are Plushdamentals?
There may be no better measure of a Milwaukee man than the manner in which he dresses.
What are Plushdamentals, you question? It might be more appropriate to try to describe a color, or embrace a tornado. But if you must, Plushdamentals are baseball fundamentals taken to the Nth degree. If your knees aren't skinned, if your muscles don't burn, if the box score isn't filled with triples, then you sir (or miss) are not playing, or living, by the Plushdamental creed.
Due to high demand, Plushdamental T-shirts are currently SOLD OUT.
For more info on shirt availability, contact: contactplush2 at gmail dot com
Latest from Plush Himself
The pestilent birds dispatched. So it was foretold in The Book of Plushdamentals.
Old-world Plushdamentals. RT @crimmings: Used some #Plushdamentals to get to the top of Masada. Dead Sea in the bkgd. http://t.co/SU1rxcd
The scholars were once blind, but today can see. So it is decreed: The heretofore untitled text is now called "The Book of Plushdamentals."
And most heroically, in June 2011 A.D., this man and his people would strike down a volery of annoying and self-satisfied crimson birds.
This man would take bases three at a time, all in the service of a pennant-starved city. Much malt liquor would be consumed and spilled.

B&Ws – Havre de Grace Christmas Parade and iPhone Video Set-Up
Dec 7, 2017
Tis the season to be busy. This is the B&W version of the color shot topping the last posting. Yes, I like it much better, especially viewed large – in spite of the fact that when shooting action in the dark one is lucky to be able to use an ISO as low as 6400, rendering something of a grainy effect. I can't wait to have time to actually print it full size. There are four more shots I printed up in this series. The first below is the Christas Angel shot, also posted in color last time, again really effective full size.
Below are an interesting pair – Big Dog on his antlered motorcycle and the strangest float I've ever seen, complete with a large screen TV running It's a Wonderful Life. Cool.
The last shot is parade regular, the ubiquitous fire truck, decked out and sometimes blinding everyone with its flashing lights. I especially like the big round smiley-face guy in the far left background.
As always with Havre de Grace stuff, find larger downloadable views in Havre de Grace Street…
My inexpensive set-up for stability and good sound when shooting videos with the iPhone
That is if, unlike me, you aren't shooting stills with a long lens at the same time and keep bumping the tripod with the lens when it's hanging.
Since I sort of jury-rigged the mount set-up from bits and pieces I had lying around, the list below is what I could find that would do the job. Total cost, including the apps, was probably under $50 for both the set-up shown (minus the iPhone, iPad and larger tripod of course) and my more mobile set-up with the smaller, clip-on mic.
Tripod: This is my favorite, rather expensive, lightweight tripod. As yu can see, it compresses down to fit on a table top. It's a veteran of a decade of work on Easter Island. But any old tripod – or even light stand can be used for this – as long as one doesn't bump anything into it while shooting.
iPhone: This is the iPhone 8. I got it mostly because of the third party camera apps. that I use.
iPad: It's the Mini – Nan likes the regular size but me, me loves some Mini.
The Set-Up
MoviePro app for iPhone – $5.99 at the app store. OK, it's expensive for an app, but this thing zooms, has a pause button and shoots 4K. Nothing else takes such advantage of what the phone can do.
MoviePro Remote – $4.99 at the app store. Put this on an iPad, another phone, etc. and run remotely without having to risk jiggling the video.
Melamount Mini Condenser Microphone – I paid $15 for this on eBay. Right now it is $25 on Amazon here:
It is simple to use, produces great sound and is adaptable for cameras, phones, etc.
Apple Lightning 3.5mm Headphone Jack Adapter – I paid $7.65 – this goes between the cord on the Mic to the iPhone plug.
Adjustable iPhone Holder – I got this on eBay along with a Mini Tripod that I couple it with for mobile use. Somewhere around $12 for the pair.
Metal Flash / Mic Rail – This is just a simple side rail for mounting a flash or mic off to the side of a camera – 8 bucks or less. I mount this on the tripod and them the iPhone holder to that – with the Mic on the other end. There's one here:
• While the zoom works really smooth, one must remember that it is working by cropping video frames. I like to shoot HD, but zooming can cut the heck our of resolution. I would hightly recommend shooting 4K if wanting to zoom in, and then later convert to HD.
• Zooming also tends to move non-centered subjects further off to the side. Shifting the position of the phone on the tripod, even on a smooth operating mount, can be jerky.
* Mobile use – to improve stability and sound when using the iPhone without a large tripod and good mic, I mount the iPhone holder on the cheap, very tiny mini-tripod mentioned in the list above, which I close to grip in my left hand. then I plug in a tiny clip-on mic. (usually on my shirt pocket). These vary in price less than $5 to around $10. And they actually do a pretty good job. There are so many out there, that I would recommend looking at reviews first.
* Of course there are alternatives to using one's phone for good videos, but the phone can be used to get great results with a little care.
Most cameras come with remote apps for the phone now, making Nan's little Lumix LX-100 perfect – what with the ability to even zoom from the remote. With her 24-75mm lens, I can't wait to try it. My camera, a Fuji X-T2 does fantastic video but the manual nature of the zoom lenses makes the remote app useless if it's needed – besides, I can't imagine being willing very often to leave myself unable to do my B&W stills.

Pump manufacturers are businesses that create different kinds of pumps for many different uses. Some of these pumps are rather small and are used to circulate water in ponds and pools, while others are rather sizable and are used to run water pumps for dams and water treatment plants. These manufacturers also create pumps that are portable and can be used to suck out flood water from basements, as well as pumps that are used to clean out sewage tanks and to transfer any of the dirt in these tanks into trucks that are used for disposal. Whatever type of pumps these manufacturers make, much like any other company that makes products that are purchased and used by other entities, these all require tags, labels and nameplates on them.
Nameplates makes custom tags for the businesses that specialize in the manufacture of pumps, and some of the plates as well as labels that are made for these include model and serial tags, instructional plates, schematics, and warning plates. These pumps may also require custom made scales and dials, which require utmost precision in making since these will indicate specific variances like pressure, temperature, depth, and many more. Tags that these businesses need also include branding tags, and some of the types that are often made for this purpose include domed labels, etched tags, and embossed plates. Engraved plates, stonewear process plates, and photosensitive plates can also be used for this exact same purpose.

Feeling great after a restful weekend recovering from being ill last week I was full of energy for getting back to work again this week. Monday was a busy and productive day and I managed to continue with preparing English Lessons and helping correct Beatrice's blog she'd written in English. In the late morning I went through to help with the production of soy milk I was put to work screwing the lids onto the bottles of fresh soy milk, after tens of bottles my fingers began to blister! But I enjoyed very much my time with the women and tried to practice my Moore with them! Making it all worth it and hopefully by the end of the 3 months my hands will have toughened up! We found out however that we would have to fundraise £650 by next week for the Taiwanese who are coming to install the machines next week. This was very stressful discovery and Hannah and Emily spent the day looking for possibilities of emergency funds and sending messages on twitter to people involved in International Development.
On the Tuesday we had a very early start being up at 4:30am! This was to go to Ziniare (a town 40 minutes away) to celebrate International Service's 60th anniversary at one of our partner organisations called Kabeela. It was a lovely celebration which included traditional African music which turned to modern African pop by the afternoon! And both came with lots of dancing from the international and national volunteers! After a lunch of traditional tasty Burkinabe food I played in the women's football match with the other IS volunteers against Kabeela's team.
On the Wednesday we provided English and French lessons to the women in the afternoon. I was given one pupil for the beginners English, the very cute 7 year old daughter of one the women who works at Djigui, keeping her entertained for an hour was a challenge! But using paint on the computer to cover colours was enjoyed and had the added benefit of combing IT and language lessons in one! Hannah took intermediate English which she found really fun and is excited now knowing what the level the women are at and knowing that they want to learn verbs for this Friday.
On Thursday we had a meeting with the professionals from NottsCounty and Npower who have come to offer their professional skills to the partner organisations of IS. This was a very interesting introduction and I look forward to their sessions being held at Djigui next week. In the afternoon we had a discussion with our national volunteers on the questions asked by International Service on whether we feel volunteering is beneficial to development. This was a great way to get to know our national volunteers, especially one who is generally very shy with his English. He really came out of his shell and gave very insightful opinions putting into practice his English which was not bad at all!

"Rhymes to Riches"
A Review of "Patti Cake$" by Nathan H. Box
Director: Geremy Jasper, Writer: Geremy Jasper, Starring: Danielle Macdonald, Bridget Everett. Siddharth Dhananjay
Rating: 4 Stars, SHOWTIME
Patricia Dombrowski goes by many names. Patti Cake$, Killa P, just to name a couple. She is beyond average and finds herself in a dying town in New Jersey. Patti possesses a gift; a gift which may help deliver her from her withering home. Patti is part poet, all rapper, and is solely focused on making it as a white, overweight, woman in the world of hip-hop. Her journey is anything but expected and delivers one of the most memorable movies of the year.
Patti's home state of New Jersey is an important character in this film. In my mind, there is only one other place in the US this film could have taken place and that's Detroit. We've already seen "8 Mile," so New Jersey it is. All around our main character is a town crumbling to pieces. Jobs are hard to come by, addiction is rampant, and opportunity only seems to knock for a few. Patti wants to be one of those people knocking on the door. She has dreams of rising from rhymes to riches. What began as clever lines in notebooks and rapping with friends, slowly begins to blossom into something more. As an audience member, it doesn't take you long to realize you are experiencing a real talent. The great struggle of the film is her mission to have the rest of the world realize it.
To rise, she must battle stereotypes. Her race, weight, and gender are all weapons others use to try and keep her in a place she is no longer destined. This requires hustling, grinding, and battling. It requires two jobs, practice, and just a little bit of luck. There are valuable lessons to be learned here: We should always seek to positively defy other's expectations of us and rarely do we arrive anywhere substantial without hard work. There are many moments in this film when life gets in the way like an alcoholic mother or a dying grandmother and it would have been easy for our hero to quit. Luckily for us, quitting is never really an option for Patti.

Everyday it seems we are reading about some news or study presenting evidence that our mind is connected to our health. Our thoughts effect how we feel, and how healthy we are.Read More
Allow Change
Ever try to capture a moment and put it in a bottle, or try to stop the seasons from changing? It just can't be done. The simple truth is that everything of this world is subject to change. Change is the only constant. You are subject to change. Your body changes, your circumstances change. You are quite literally not the same person you were a year ago, physically, emotionally or in your life circumstances. With all this change we have the choice of moving with the flow of change or resisting it.Read More
The seasons are shifting and more change is on the horizon. To resist change is to invite suffering, to surrender to change is to open ourselves to endless possibility.
Often we hear the expression "Home is where the heart is". These are wise words that ring with truth. With Valentine's Day just around the corner I can't help but wonder if we wouldn't be better served by asking ourselves what moves our hearts?Read More
The holiday season has become synonymous with abundance, starting with the festive meal of Thanksgiving, the many gifts of Christmas, and the lavish celebration of New Year Eve. All of these are certainly forms of abundance. But, without the abundance that resides within, all material forms that we manifest in our lives are meaningless.Read More
Everyone knows stretching and exercise are healthy ways to feel better and to get into shape. After a yoga class you feel better than when you came. This is because of something called the parasympathetic nervous system. When we do yoga, we activate the parasympathetic nervous system through stretching and breathing. The parasympathetic nervous system is responsible for slowing down our bodies through muscle relaxation, calming the mind, and results in better digestion, better immunity, lower blood pressure and lower heart rate.Read More

The following is written by Sumner Mayor Dave Enslow:
Early Monday morning, a Sumner resident who rides the Sounder train darted across Traffic Avenue at 5 am and was seriously injured when he was hit by a pickup truck.
It seems he was already at the train and remembered something he had forgotten. He was crossing mid-block, not at any of the crosswalks; it was dark and rainy; and he was wearing earbuds. The driver stopped and called 911, but the pedestrian is in the hospital.
Hearing about this, I was reminded that it is small choices that forever change lives in major, and sometimes tragic ways.
After this happened, I noticed several cars driving through Sumner in the early morning with no headlights on. Several other commuters walked right out in front of cars, buses, you name it, ignoring crossing lights.
My point?
We've all got to figure out how to pay a bit more attention to our surroundings, despite the late-winter blahs. And we've all got to get out of our own fog to help others know we're coming, whether we're walking or driving. Between yet more rainy, gray days and Friday being St. Patrick's Day, let's all think a little more about prioritizing our choices.
We've all heard of having the blues, but in Western Washington many of us tend to get the blahs. Too many rainy, gray days can take their toll on everybody. Let's remind ourselves that there are worse things than missing a train, than being late to a meeting, than having to walk an extra 25 feet in the rain, than having to call an Uber because you had one too many drinks, than putting the phone down for ten minutes while driving.
While it all may seem important at the time, none of it is as important as keeping yourself, and those around you, safe.

Ryan Harrington brings a unique perspective to his clients, having worked in the automotive industry and the federal government. His accomplishments include innovative approaches in automotive engineering, technology evaluation, and the analysis and development of federal regulations, policies, and standards including fuel economy, and emissions rule-making and motor vehicle safety standards. He specializes in the analysis of complex technical and policy issues while fostering collaboration between industry executives, senior government officials, and engineers related to the deployment of emerging technologies including automated vehicles, advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communications, and fuel economy improving technologies. He has evaluated and developed test procedures for ADAS systems; analyzed failure data and conducted root cause analyses for diesel engines and automotive components; developed prototype electric power steering (EPS) systems; performed noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH) investigations and customer acceptance evaluations; led fuel economy studies; and conducted fuel-efficient driver training. Prior to joining Exponent, Ryan was the Chief of the Technology Innovation and Policy Division at the US Department of Transportation (DOT) Volpe National Transportation Systems Center. He led a cross-functional team of scientists, engineers, and analysts focused on emerging transportation technologies including automated vehicles, connected vehicles, connected/smart cities, and big data. Ryan and his team assessed alternative policy approaches to overcome technical and policy barriers impacting the deployment of advanced transportation technologies at the local, regional, and national level. He and his team also conducted a scan of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS) to identify potential conflicts with the certification of automated vehicles; reviewed comments submitted in response to the Federal Automated Vehicles Policy (FAVP); and supported automated vehicle research and safety regulation analyses for passenger cars, commercial motor vehicles (CMV), and transit vehicles. Ryan was invited to the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy's (OSTP) Executive Leadership Retreat at Camp David to identify key priorities and challenges related to the deployment of automated vehicles. In his previous work at the Volpe Center, as a Senior Engineer, he led a team that performed engineering analyses and developed fuel-savings, cost, deployment rates, and applicability assumptions for light-duty and heavy-duty vehicle technologies, which were incorporated into the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's (NHTSA) Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) standard setting compliance and effects modeling.

Online Vulnerability - Protect Your Personal Information
One of the main challenges of today is to enjoy the ease of internet without the fear of compromising privacy, so here we are with the first edition of our online security series intended to give you an idea about security issues that we may face online. Everything from our birthday celebrations, hangouts, activities, interests, employment history, bank account to other personal details are easily available online for everyone to see like an open book. Any data that we put on our PCs, tablets, Smart Phones, laptop is out there accessible to everyone and can be used in whichever way they want to.
Everything going through Facebook, Google +, Twitter, YouTube has already been cracked, so don't expect your data to be 100% secure even in the hands of these giants. These social media sites hold data of more than 1 billion people. These sites are valuable asset for hackers, digital marketing companies, government agencies.
Just to give you an idea about the significance of the issue, 17430 cases of online fraud have been reported in England and Wales so far in 2014, which comprises of 40% non-investment fraud, 19% advanced fee payments fraud, 12% banking and credit fraud, 11% computer misuse and 18% others. Everything that you do online leaves behind a digital trail, so it is very important to be careful in the online world.
Here are a few tips for your safe surfing:
1. Think Before Sharing Anything
There are some things that are meant to be kept secret. You cannot expect your mobile phone to be silent if your contact number is available online. Know who all can access your profile details. Don't just give your credit card details to every other website or to some random caller claiming to be from a reputed organization working for charity. The only person you should be careful of online is you. Try avoiding application that shares your location online. You don't want your boss to catch you grabbing a bite with your girlfriend when you are supposed to be working. There are cases where people have actually lost their job because of information disclosed on the internet that was not intended for everyone to see.
2. Web Browsing
Web browsing activities are tracked by use of cookies. Cookies are installed on your desktop by the websites that you visit, so make sure you regularly check and delete the cookies. You can avoid cookie by turning on "Private browsing". It's called 'Incognito' by chrome; Internet Explorer offers it by the name of 'InPrivate browsing'. This mode doesn't block cookies, but it deletes cookies after you turn off private browsing mode.
On some websites you may end up downloading Spyware, Trojan viruses. Remember the "Congratulations!! 1000000th lucky visitor" sign popping up every time. Now ask yourself for how many times you can be the 1000000th lucky visitor. Had it been true, I would have gotten credit of 30000$ in my bank account thrice a day.
3. Cloud Data Storage
It is really easy to access data from the cloud. Everything that is out there belongs to the online service that you use, not to you. Owing it to the outdated rules of Electronic Communications Privacy Act (1986), this cloud based data is vulnerable to privacy loopholes. Current law considers data stored on a server for more than 180 days as abandoned. It is not legally protected in the same way that it would have been if it were located on a storage device you own. So the thumb rule that you can follow here would be if you don't want something to be accessed by somebody, just don't put it in the cloud.
4. Multiple Authentication:
Google offers this feature. Besides normal password authentication you can also have a temporary password created every time you log in which is sent to your mobile. So even if your password is compromised, you are still on the safe side.
5. Wireless Services:
If you are one of them who have their Bluetooth switched on 24*7 or access open WI-Fi in public places, think again. Anybody can snoop on you. The least you could do is to make sure that you are using encrypted HTTPS rather than unsecured HTTP connection. These are prefixes to every URL on the web. HTTPS should be used while entering sensitive data into form fields on a website. While data in HTTP is transmitted in clear text and can be read by anyone, HTTPS uses Secure Socket Layer to encrypt the data and making it difficult for hackers to decipher.
Follow these simple steps and you are good to go online. However, considering the vast number of possibilities in today's digital era you can never be 100% assured. Surf Smart and Stay Safe!

My favourite time of the year is coming, and I can't wait to browse through festive inspired gift to find the perfect one. There is this one brand that never disappoints in their Xmas gifts selection. An iconic luxury British brand and champion of heritage blended with modern style, Mulberry tops the all-important gift (and wish) lists this Christmas. Their gifting collection embodies the spirit of Mulberry with a delightful limited-edition capsule collection alongside new signature styles, colours and leathers.
Creative Director Johnny Coca has created a capsule collection featuring some of our most iconic bag silhouettes embroidered with an interpretation of the delicate flower that fills every branch and bough of a Mulberry tree in blossom. The new equestrian-influenced Amberley Satchel and the iconic Zipped Bayswater become the perfect canvases for the embroidered motif, alongside the Darley in three sizes, a large pouch, zipped wallet and coin purse. All are created in Small Classic Grain Leather.
The collection also includes soft printed lambswool scarves, a slip-on sneaker and delicately-crafted jewellery pieces, as well as a keyring that doubles as a bag accessory to add a touch of Mulberry charm to styles already owned and loved.
Mulberry icons the Bayswater and the Darley, along with the new Amberley silhouette have been given a playful colour update. The signature styles have been introduced in a palette of muted Gold and warm Lilac.
New additions join iconic bag families: the Mini Zipped Bayswater and the Amberley Mini are scaled-down versions of the originals, but retain all the classic characteristics and miniature feature locks.
The Christmas gifting collections will be available from early November in Mulberry stores and online at mulberry.com.

100 Articles Need Enhanced
Budjetti $30-250 USD
I have 100 articles I need enhanced so to speak. This won't be the typical writing job, so please pay close attention.
Every article needs 10 new titles that say exactly the same thing, but are completely different.
The article itself needs to be done in a very specific way. You will take at least 3 - 4 words from each sentence, and create a total of 10 words that mean the same thing.
For example, if the sentence is as follows.
"Articles are one of the most powerful ways to get traffic."
The sentence would need to look like this when finished.
"{Articles|Website content|Web copy|Marketing articles|Website article} are one of the most {powerful|effective|useful} {ways|methods|techniques|tactics|strategies} to get traffic."
The sentence needs to say the same thing, and I need as many words added as possible exactly like they are above.
The quickest turn around time, lowest bid wins!
You must also be able to use good words. I can't have crap used and it still needs to make 100% complete sense no matter which word is chosen.
Use an online dictionary if you must, I don't care. But I won't pay if I need to go back through and do all the articles again anyway.

Barack Obama Quotes About QualityQuotes about: Quality
In the wake of 9/11, my meetings with Arab and Pakistani Americans, for example, have a more urgent quality, for the stories of detentions and FBI questioning and hard stares from neighbors have shaken their sense of security and belonging. They have been reminded that the history of immigration in this country has a dark underbelly; they need specific reassurances that their citizenship really means something, that America has learned the right lessons from the Japanese internments during World War II, and that I will stand with them should the political winds shift in an ugly direction.
America's possibilities are limitless, for we possess all the qualities that this world without boundaries demands: youth and drive; diversity and openness; an endless capacity for risk and a gift for reinvention. My fellow Americans, we are made for this moment, and we will seize it - so long as we seize it together.
For everywhere we look, there is work to be done. The state of our economy calls for action: bold and swift. And we will act not only to create new jobs but to lay a new foundation for growth. We will build the roads and bridges, the electric grids and digital lines that feed our commerce and bind us together. We will restore science to its rightful place and wield technology's wonders to raise health care's quality and lower its costs.
Now, today, some children are enrolled in excellent programs. Some children are enrolled in mediocre programs. And some are wasting away their most formative years in bad programs....That's why I'm issuing a challenge to our states: Develop a cutting-edge plan to raise the quality of your early learning programs; show us how you'll work to ensure that children are better prepared for success by the time they enter kindergarten. If you do, we will support you with an Early Learning Challenge Grant that I call on Congress to enact.
I remember reading [ Studs Terkel's] "Working" when it first came out and just finding that very powerful. I was going into community organizing. What stuck was to reveal the sacredness of ordinary people's lives. That everybody has a story. And I think Studs is terrific at drawing out that shimmering quality of people's everyday struggles.
We are not going to have a situation where our education spending goes back to its lowest level since the year 2000 despite a larger population and more kids to educate. We know that the single most important thing in terms of how well we can compete around the world is the quality of our workforce. We can't do that to our kids.
Imagine if you had genuine, high-quality early-childhood education for every child, and suddenly every black child in America - but also every poor white child or Latino [child], but just stick with every black child in America - is getting a really good education. And they're graduating from high school at the same rates that whites are, and they are going to college at the same rates that whites are, and they are able to afford college at the same rates because the government has universal programs. So now they're all graduating.
The answers to our problems don't lie beyond our reach. They exist in our laboratories and universities; in our fields and our factories; in the imaginations of our entrepreneurs and the pride of the hardest-working people on Earth. Those qualities that have made America the greatest force of progress and prosperity in human history we still possess in ample measure.
In recent years, we've become enamored with our own past success. Lulled into complacency by the glitter of our own achievements. We've become accustomed to the title of Military Superpower, forgetting the qualities that got us there. We've become accustomed to our economic dominance in the world, forgetting that it wasn't reckless deals and get rich quick schemes that got us where we are, but hard work and smart ideas, quality products and wise investments.
A central notion in the Affordable Care Act was we had an inefficient system with a lot of waste that didn't also deliver the kind of quality that was needed that often put health care providers in a box where they wanted to do better for their patients, but financial incentives were skewed the other way... We don't need to reinvent the wheel; you're already figuring out what works to reduce infections in hospitals or help patients with complicated needs.

The best way to get an even cook on a barbecued chicken without a rotisserie is to remove the spine, open it up and flatten it. I have filmed a video of my husband flattening a chicken so you can see how easy it is, but if you're at all squeamish, make sure the sound is turned off because you do hear the bones. It actually sounds louder in the video than it does in real life, though. (Technical difficulties–okay, it's all User-related–loading the video. Please bear with me. It's coming.) Opening up the chicken allows you to season and flavour the inside of the chicken as well as the outside and creates a "rack" (ie, the rib cage) for you to cook the chicken on so it doesn't stick to the grill. You will end up with a juicy, succulent chicken with nice, crispy skin, in just about an hour. This recipe is the directions for a very basic chicken, but the Tips section below includes flavour variations and how to apply them. Continue reading
I'm a little food obsessed. I always have been. I don't eat to live; I live to eat. I'm not a professional chef. At best I'm an interested amateur, a home cook with some knowledge and skills. What I am, though, is a planner. I like to know what's happening, what's coming up, and what might happen, so I can plan accordingly.

Sydney: Australia could claim a hefty compensation over Facebook data leak scandal.
Facebook data leak scandal could enforce the company to pay huge compensation to Australia. The company previously accepted the data leak of millions of users including 300,000 Australians.
Under the Australian law, all companies must take adequate actions to ensure the confidentiality of the personal data. However, IMF Bentham collaborate with a law firm to file a complaint with Office of Australian Information Commissioner (OAIO).
IMF released a statement that they are seeking compensation for Facebook users arising from the breach of Australian Privacy Principles of the Privacy Act 1988. They further added that the social media giant was aware about the data leak, but it did inform users about that.
A few months back, the Facebook data leak scandal got the world's attention. The British firm, Cambridge Analytica got data of millions of Facebook users. Facebook believed that the information would remain in safe hands and data would be deleted. However, Cambridge Analytica's representatives later revealed that they purchased data from a person who owns application "This Is Your Digital Life". Facebook faced intense criticism from the public and it also resulted in the drop in their share prices.

Campus Pedestrian and Bicycle Safety Plans and Policies
Universities can establish plans and policies to create a clear vision for a safe walking and bicycling environment on and around their campuses. These plans and policies may recommend education, enforcement, and engineering treatments that will lead to safer pedestrian and bicycle conditions. They may also include recommendations for programs that encourage more students, faculty, and staff to walk and bicycle to campus (see Promote Walking and Bicycling page.
Many university plans have also recommended evaluating aspects pedestrian and bicycle safety, convenience, and comfort in the campus area. Evaluation strategies used by many campuses include:
- Review annual pedestrian and bicycle crash data for trends in the locations, times, and types of crashes. The Campus Pedestrian and Bicycle Safety Evaluation Methods page provides a detailed discussion of several crash analysis methods.
- Count pedestrians and bicyclists at representative locations within and at the boundary of campus. A common strategy is to use automated technologies (to collect continuous counts and understand the patterns of activity by time of day and day of week) and use manual counts (to collect counts at multiple locations in the campus area). These counts can represent exposure for crash analysis and show how walking and bicycling levels at specific locations change over time as transportation facilities and land uses change.
- Conduct a campus travel survey every one to three years. Surveys typically provide information about student, faculty, and staff commute mode shares. However, they can also solicit feedback about attitudes towards walking and bicycling, barriers to walking and bicycling, and suggestions for pedestrian and bicycle improvements.
- Inventory walking and bicycling infrastructure in the campus area. Inventories can document when pedestrian and bicycle facilities were improved and illustrate progress toward creating a more complete walking and bicycle network. Inventories can also evaluate the suitability of walking and bicycling along and across campus-area roadways.
- Document pedestrian, bicycle, and driver behaviors. Field observations can target behaviors that may lead to pedestrian and bicycle crashes, such as drivers speeding, drivers failing to yield to pedestrians in crosswalks, drivers not giving bicyclists adequate space when passing, pedestrians crossing against traffic signals, and bicyclists disobeying traffic control.
Universities can collect these data at regular intervals to benchmark progress. For example, the University of California, Berkeley has suggested a comprehensive framework to evaluate progress on its pedestrian and bicycle safety plan (Schneider, et al. 2012). Note that the Example Campus Pedestrian and Bicycle Surveys and Studies page lists several evaluation studies from universities throughout the United States. More information about common evaluation methods is available on the Planning and Data Collection Tools page.
Plans and policies can also help universities build institutional support for pedestrian and bicycle safety improvements on and around their campuses. This includes building partnerships with local municipal governments that control land or roadways surrounding the university. Developing institutional support includes identifying and starting conversations with elected officials, agency department leaders, and other decision makers who have the authority to implement education, enforcement, and engineering treatments. Developing a pedestrian or bicycle safety plan or establishing a joint pedestrian or bicycle safety task force between the university and local jurisdiction are examples of first steps to start a collaborative discussion about pedestrian and bicycle safety needs (Benekohal et al., 2007).
The PBIC Summary of Campus Pedestrian and Bicycle Plans and Studies spreadsheet provides more details about which universities have developed specific plans. In addition, the Example Campus Pedestrian and Bicycle Plans page lists several plans from universities throughout the United States.
More information about plans and policies in general is available on the Sample Plans and Policies page.

Two Brits ordered to leave France for "orchestrating" violent clashes between migrants and police in Calais
Two Britons were ordered to leave France on Wednesday as they posed a "threat to public order" after police accused them of orchestrating violent clashes between hundreds of UK-bound migrants and police in Calais.
Steven Martin, a 31-year-old Cambridge academic, and Richard Jones, a 19-year-old from Denbigh in North Wales stood "immediate trial" at a nearby court in the town of Boulogne.
Police accused them of being activists with the No Borders group and fomenting the violent standoff on Monday that saw migrants hurl stones, traffic cones and even tree trunks onto a motorway leading to Calais port so they could board UK-bound lorries.
Police used teargas and even water canon to disperse them.
Officers even accused Mr Martin, who has published government reports on public health, of using his scientific background to try and "brew'"tear gas in a makeshift laboratory in the "jungle" camp that houses up to 6,000 migrants.
Both vehemently denied belonging to the group and said they abhorred violence. They confirmed that balaclava-clad No Borders militants were trying to convince migrants to resort to attacking police.
Mr Martin, a long-time volunteer in Calais' "jungle", had been accused by police of "orchestrating" the entire riot, and looking for police "weak spots"in order to send migrants to such areas.
But Mr Martin, who faced charges of throwing projectiles and smashing the back window of a police van, was cleared on both counts by magistrates despite the testimony of four police officers and their chief.
Mr Jones had also been accused of playing a key part in Monday's shocking clashes but insisted he was merely trying to defuse a tense situation.
He pleaded guilty to swearing at a police officer, likening them to "Nazis" and "fascists" on a par with collaborationist French police in the Second World War. He was handed a two-month suspended sentence.
After the hearing, both were handed notices from the local prefecture ordering them to leave France without delay due to 'their behaviour and attitude towards the police" and the fact that they posed a "threat to public order'.
Police on Monday accused representatives of No Borders, an organisation that seeks the end of border controls, of helping to organise the intrusion on the ring road.
Mr Martin said he was against No Borders' argument that "rock throwing is a legitimate means of defence".
Outside court, Mr Jones warned that if Britain voted to leave Europe on today's (Thursday) referendum "will make the situation ten times worse" in Calais among migrants. "If they suddenly sense that their rights of abode in the UK are affected by this, then the position of desperation that they are in will only be exacerbated."

The effect of caffeine ingestion on metabolism and performance during prolonged cycling
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of caffeine supplementation on physiological and performance parameters during 4-h of prolonged steady state cycling followed by a maximal performance time trial. Utilizing a randomized, double blind, crossover design, 11 trained endurance athletes cycled-for 4-h at ∼55% of maximal oxygen consumption (VO 2max ), 3-h after ingestion of 6 mg of caffeine-kg-1 or placebo. Subjects were also given a small carbohydrate meal 2-h prior to the 4h ride, an additional 3 mg of caffeine-kg-1 or placebo 1-h into the ride, and 1-L-h-1 of a 6% carbohydrate/electrolyte solution. Immediately after completion of the 4-h steady-state ride a maximal performance 5-km time trial was carried out. Seven days prior to each experimental trial, participants were instructed to abstain from caffeine containing products of any kind. During the 3-d preceding their first experimental trial, subjects were asked to maintain a high carbohydrate, pre-competition diet and record their food intake using a standard dietary record protocol. Subjects were also asked to record their physical activity during the 3-d preceding each experimental trial, and abstain from any exercise during the 24-h prior to their trial. Caffeine ingestion resulted in significantly elevated [FFA] at only 60-min after ingestion. This is the first study to investigate a regimen of multiple doses of caffeine in combination with carbohydrate intake during a long duration exercise bout. Given that this regimen was not associated with changes in steady state [FFA], [lactate], [glucose], RPE, respiratory or 5 km time trial performance it was concluded that caffeine intake when followed by carbohydrate ingestion, before and during exercise, does not alter indices of substrate utilization or benefit exercise performance in trained cyclists.
