claptrap
"Claptrap" is pretentious nonsense.
It first appeared in print in Nathan Bailey's dictionary of 1721 and his definition explains the word very well. "A Clap Trap, a name given to the rant and rhimes that dramatick poets, to please the actors, let them get off with: as much as to say, a trap to catch a clap, by way of applause from the spectators at a play."
Other writers agreed that such nonsense had no place on the stage. One such writer in The New-England Magazine in 1835, fulminated against the star system that was contributing to the decline of the modern drama, and complained that in order to feed the performance of the lead actor, "The piece must abound in clap-traps." An article in Harper's New Monthly Magazine in 1855 about a new play said, "All the clap-traps of the press were employed to draw an audience to the first representation."
Claptrap appears in other venues than theater. In 1867, in London, England, Thomas Wright wrote in Some Habits and Customs of the Working Classes that: "The Waggoner's entertainment, of course, embraced the usual unauthenticated statistics, stock anecdotes, and pieces of clap-trap oratory of the professional teetotal lecturers."
In the middle of the1800s, someone invented a mechanical clapper that made a noise like that of applause. Presumably it was similar to a football rattle. This also was called a claptrap.
From there we've progressed to laugh-tracks. Big sigh.

The Forum always reminds me of an 80s nightclub with its mirrored ceilings and three stories looking down on the stage. This gave the evening a club-y feeling that benefited Fat Freddy's Drop by highlighting the electronic side of their sound. Too often they are lumped in with the dub/reggae genre when, in fact, they are much more than that. Theirs is a sound that soaks up the vibe of downbeat electronica, acid jazz as well as reggae, hip hop, funk and soul.
Up first in support was Mark Pritchard (aka Harmonic 313) accompanied by a fairly redundant Steve Spacek as MC. Pritchard mixed up an impressive range of styles from dubstep to ragga to dub and beyond. The focus on his sound is dark and often claustrophobic rhythms betraying a listening past that probably took in the industrial sounds of the 80s.
Fat Freddy's Drop have now swelled to a seven-piece band, plus MC Slave who hyped the crowd and rapped on The Nod. Strolling on stage looking the part in hats and sunglasses, they proceeded to slowly (and I mean slowly) work their way into the set. The key to enjoying a FFD show is to give yourself over to the music. The journey to get to the anthemic sing-along parts is the point.
The Nod was a squelching funk odyssey with the keyboards of Dobie Blaze Stevie Wonder'ing across the top of the music and when Slave stepped up to the mic to add a dash of hip hop the crowed responded to his energy with thunderous applause. The section where they morph into a New Orleans street band was joyously received by a thousand grins.
Boondigga is perhaps the breeziest summer song on the new record and it came like a breath of fresh air after some of the longer and slow-burning songs. The crowd responded en masse with a sea of arms in the air, unable to stand still in one spot when the loping bass kicked in. The horns over the top worked wonderfully in that they added a mournful tone over an upbeat song.
Late in the set Shiverman was a real highlight, stretched and warped to almost unrecognisable dimensions it was a a dubbed out groove that just kept going and going. Dallas worked up his vocal around the swelling music with percussion darting in and out of the mix to create the sonic peak of the evening.
The bulk of the show was taken from the new Dr Boondigga & The Big BW album with some journeys back to Based On A True Story and what sounded like a new track or two. Minor disappointments were no airing of Hope or Midnight Marauders which you can't blame them for as they must have played them to death by now. Dallas's voice which is often the human focus of their sound was missing in the mix most of the night and could have benefited from more volume.
Fat Freddy's Drop showed that their music is the focus, not the cheesiness that bands like Cat Empire trade in. They embrace diversity in sound and on stage they allow the music to simmer and grow at its own pace. The result was a genuinely and literally moving experience for both band and audience.


Guys. I've been walking around in my cowboy boots since last Thursday because I'm SO EXCITED about the new travel series we're about to start today! We're leaving behind the mountains of Canada and heading to the last of the old west. That's right… we're going to Jackson Hole!
Jackson Hole is honestly one of my favorite places in this world. The first time I saw the Tetons was the first time I saw any part of the Rocky Mountains, and I was completely awestruck. I mean… how do you not instantly fall in love with those jagged, snow capped peaks?!
In honor of their 100th birthday, the National Park Service has encouraged people to go out, and Find Your Park. There are so many national parks that I absolutely LOVE, but for me, my park always has (and always will be) Grand Teton National Park.
Deep in a glacial carved valley, surrounded by the highest mountain peaks in the state of Wyoming, you'll find Jackson Hole, a place that has been calling to cowboys, dude ranchers, hikers, skiers and outdoor enthusiasts for as long as anyone can remember. Winter, Spring, Summer or Fall, you are guaranteed to fall in love with with this little piece of Hevean on Earth.
Do I have you sold yet?
Where to Stay: Saying "stay somewhere in the town of Jackson" might sound a little silly. DUH right? Wrong. There are tons of small towns and almost remote locations you can book a rental home or hotel. But I promise, you'll love being near town. When you spend all day exploring nature, it will be nice not to have to go far for dinner, and have a few other people around! If you're looking for a hotel, you will quickly find that luxury is not lacking in Jackson. (JT and Jessica Biel vacation here people.) Places like The Four Seasons and The Wort Hotel are here to pamper you, and wait on you hand and foot. More in the business of skiing than pampering? There is no better place than The Jackson Hole Mountain Resort. However, I totally recommend renting a house for the duration of your visit. We found this little gem through VRBO and couldn't have been happier with our stay!
Where to Eat: We ate at SO many great places in Jackson, but I had one stand out favorite… Snake River Brewing. Get the Smokin' Mac. You'll thank me later! Wash it down with a Snake River Lager while you're at it. Then finish your meal off with a campfire s'more.
Where to Drink: One bar you HAVE to visit in Jackson is the Million Dollar Cowboy Bar. This place is like a museum for the wild west. I mean, how many other bars in the world can you sit on a saddle while you belly up to the bar? Personally, I wouldn't bother trying to grab food here, just get some drinks. Speaking of drinks… The Yellowstone Lemonade and The Sleeping Indian are freaking delicious!
What to Do: Okay… it seems a little obvious to say Grand Teton National Park. But thats totally my number one choice of things to do here. I promise I'll be going into detail about all my favorite places in the national park in the next few weeks. In town, check out the awesome little stores, take pictures by the antler arches, book fun tours (like white water rafting) and eat until your heart's content. Maybe if you're lucky, you can even catch a rodeo!
I'm so excited to bring one of my favorite places on this planet to my blog the next few Tuesdays. I'll be sharing detailed itineraries, tips for navigating the national park, and where to find the best attractions, food and brews. I just know that by the time this travel series is over, I'll have you booking a plane ticket to Jackson!
I hope you're all enjoying your Tuesday! See you tomorrow.
Traverse City… What to eat besides cherries.
This is beautiful!! There is something so amazing about snow capped mountains in the distance….I love them!! It looks like y had a wonderful time!!

How Far Thala Ajith Kumar Is Straight Forward ?
I received this above video this morning via one of my whatsapp friends ( private group ), we have heard here and there about Thala Ajith Kumar's attitude towards straight forward, in our life time, we used to say often that I Am straight forward, but we really don't know what actually straight forward means, i had some questions while thinking about straight forward.
How far we are straight forward ?
Do we really a straight forward person ?
To whom we are straight forward ?
In which situation we are straight forward ?
– but really i ended with a conclusion that I Am not a complete straight forward person, I double confirmed after knowing about Thala Ajith Kumar.
Ajith Kumar is liked not only by his fans, also many common people, co-actors, co-technicians are loving ajith kumar for his straight forward attitude , simplicity. I have seen many of Ajith Fans are practicing these good attitude, good attitude can be copied whenever and where ever needed.
Another Example for his straight forward quality, his speech at PASA THALAIVANUKKU PARATTU VIZHA a function conducted to honor Chief Minister of Tamilnadu – M. Karunanidhi , in the year of 2010. How brave the speech is , this shows how far thala Ajith Kumar is Straight forward.
But the below video is get edited by the concern media who covered it, but the video is up in youtube already.
This is the original video, which has been recorded by someone from crowd. He directly said with Chief minister of the state, Tamil Nadu – where Ajith films are released, that's a good ever example for straight forward character.
I now understand why Ajith Kumar has genuine fan base and even huge fan base in Tamilnadu , the fan base is yet growing. Very happy to write article about thala Ajith Kumar. How far Thala Ajith Kumar Is Straight Forward – we know the answer now.

So how did the outcome of this original vision wind up in the hands of a number of vast centralized exchanges, one of which reported 2,800% profit increase in its second quarter? Many of the key values of the cryptocurrency community – inclusiveness, privacy, freedom and individual control – seem fundamentally at odds with the way the tools to engage with it have developed, especially for those wanting to trade fiat funds into crypto in the first place.
"We're committed to opening up crypto to everyone", explained Nathan Worsley, LocalCoinSwap Chief Technical Officer, to NewsBTC. "We're never going to get the mass adoption the market needs if people have to create accounts at a dozen different centralized exchanges to trade different coins… And those exchanges, not only are they creaming off huge amounts of profits from fees, they're all really inflexible about who can use them – which currencies they accept, who's allowed to be verified on their system, and so on, It's not surprising that still, less than 1% of the global population has got on board with investing. That's just deepening inequality, and deferring the time when buying and selling everyday things with crypto becomes the norm".
"Whilst our business plans are solid and carefully-planned by our team of developers and advisors, we know we're operating in one of the most fast-moving and exciting technological environments of recent history, in a continually shifting landscape of regulatory environment of social change. As such, agility and flexibility are fundamental to our growth and success, and we're allocating 10% of our shares from start to a Community Venture Fund. Our shareholders – the users of the platform – will vote on new directions for the business to take, from adapting marketing and user tools to new languages to strategic partnerships and adoptions of secondary marketplaces on top of the underlying P2P platform".
And whilst the exchange plans to open in August with trading fully enabled on the top 10 cryptocurrencies, the inclusive and decentralized ethos recognizes that this is far from the full picture. From the very start, new tokens will be welcome.
"We have a dedicated development team whose sole purpose is the programming and implementation new crypto and fiat currencies – so we will never, ever end up resembling the big monopolized exchanges presently dominating the market, and operating no differently from the established financial institutions that the cryptocurrency movement set out to disrupt in the first place".
People get involved in cryptocurrency for all sorts of reasons, and for many, making a quick profit will probably be at the heart of it. That's fine, it's all about choice after all.
But if you share the philosophy that the greatest advances in uptake, growth, AND success will ultimately come from an approach of inclusiveness and diversity, LocalCoinSwap's approach to decentralization might appeal to you.
You can find out more ahead of everyone else, by joining the presale on March 15th – and in the meantime, you stay in touch with the team directly on Telegram, Facebook, Twitter and register on their Website.

Q: Can a big VMware snapshot be deleted this way? I heard that if you have a big snapshot to delete (keep the modifications) you should take a small snapshot again and then "delete all" so that the consolidation takes place in background.
Is it a good way to manage big snapshots?

A: There is a really interesting article about performing safe removal of large snapshots on VMware. All credits goes to Ideen Jahanshahiand and his great blog post. Screenshots have been replaced on request by @Gerald Schneider.
TLDR of the article;
Why Take Precautions
Although snapshot removal has been substantially improved in ESXi 5.0 and ESXi 5.1, it is still possible for a virtual machine to appear something similar to a suspended state. See http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1031106 regarding ESX/ESXi 4.1. For a business critical application such as Microsoft Exchange that must remain active, this can have devastating effects as the snapshot removal process cannot be cancelled once it has been initiated.
Removing a Large Snapshot
Although it can be labor intensive, a common way of removing a large snapshot is to take a new snapshot. This will add a degree of separation from the base image to the child.

In the example below, Snapshot the Virtual machine's memory has been unchecked and the Snapshot was named Safe Snapshot Removal. By unchecking the box shown below, this will assist in removing the "Safe Snapshot" once the other snapshot was removed.

With the current example, there are now 2 existing snapshots.

Next, remove the large "pre-install" snapshot. This will roll this snapshot back into the parent and will no longer cause any downtime. Note that this can potentially cause greater I/O penalties, so calculate the risks before proceeding with this method.

Once the pre-install snapshot has been deleted, I do a quick check to verify that the Safe-Snapshot Removal snapshot is fairly small. If no, repeat the process. If yes, the Safe-Snapshot Removal snapshot can be deleted.

Some catamarans can be chartered bareboat, crewed or only with a skipper.
Catamarans in Catamaran Charter BVI sail on the same principle as all sailing yachts monohulls, but they have a lot more advantages like stability on the sea, security, speed and comfort in the catamaran and out side. Because of its two hulls and two keels, catamarans are extremely stable.
Another advantage of the catamarans is the comfort and the roominess. It have a large central lounge, large cockpit, and all in all a lot more space than the sailboats. We can honestly say that Catamarans for hire in BVI are blend of comfort pleasure of sailing.

All the catamarans are very large, they all have a shallow draft that is ideal for anchorage in beautiful bays on the British Virgin islands. The catamarans can easily enter in the bays where sailing boats cannot, come closer to the beaches where is less crowded for anchorage.
Due to the fact that Catamarans out on the sea sailing have minimal slope, they are an ideal choice to charter for people who do not tolerate ruff sea and the rolling of the boats. Because of this stability, you can enjoy your sailing on the Croatia coast. Due to the large sailing area between BVI islands, catamarans are generally much faster then the sailboats and sailing yachts. Because of its twin motors, handling is much easier.
Catamarans where always popular but now are the new hit in BVI charter. They are a way to enjoy charter sailing along with the spaciousness of your home in a yacht. Catamaran Charter BVI offer catamarans in British Virgin Islands that can accommodate up to ten people plus crew that can be a skipper and a hostess or a cook.

Let your friends sunbath while you sail the catamaran by your self on the sundeck, or better yet let the skipper do it for you so you can enjoy yourself on the vacation. Even in rough weather you will appreciate the catamaran stability that no sailboat can provide you.
Catamarans are a class of yachts that has 2 hulls, equal in size. Catamaran hull speeds are very high, making catamaran a good choice for recreational uses.
Catamarans are usually faster then single hull boats. This is due to several factors, the most important of which is the catamaran hull shape. Catamarans are also very light, which further reduces drag and displacements. Stability of the catamarans comes from there wide beam length. One more great advantage is that they are wider and much spacer than monohulls. Because of that fact a catamaran interior and deck are much more spacious so you have more room in all places on the catamaran. Since catamarans have more room it creates feelings like you are in the luxury apartment. Heads and showers are separate and also the cabins provide enough room for spacious and large beds. Catamarans are ideal for long cruising in the BVI sea as they are very spacious and comfortable for long time on it.
Although the principles, sailing is the same for catamarans and monohulls. Discovering catamaran BVI charter and rentals with Catamaran-BVI-Charter.com.
Some catamarans can be harder to tack. Because they are lighter then sailboat in proportion to their sail size, catamarans have less momentum to carry them in the turn when they are head to the wind. Correct use of the catamaran of the sail is often essential in successful completing a track without ending up stuck.
Catamarans have a higher average speed then sailboats.
They are less likely to capsize in the classic manner but often they have a tendency to pitchpole instead. Where the leeward bow sinks into the water and the yacht trips over forwards.
Learning new sailors is usually carried on monohulls as they are thought easier to learn to sail and also is much cheaper, a mixture of all the differences mentioned before probably contributes to this.
Catamaran hulls are thinner in cross section then monohulls.
Catamaran is most likely to achieve the max. speed when its going forward and its not unduly disturbed by the waves. This is achieved where the waves are not so big, it is achieved by the design. This has led to being said that catamarans are favorable in coastal waters.
Catamarans over 14 meters (46 feet) provide comfortable and pleasant sailing vacation in luxury and style how you deserve it. Catamarans are ideal for long charter vacations; some of them have 4 or 5 cabins, and also with owner versions.

Q: C# Raising event to inherited classes only I have a generic user control:
public partial class SearchBoxGeneric<T> : UserControl
{
    protected class RecordFoundEventArgs
    {
        public T Record { get; private set; }

        public RecordFoundEventArgs(T record)
        {
            this.Record = record;
        }
    }
    protected event EventHandler<RecordFoundEventArgs> RecordFound;

    //Called from search button
    public void Find()
    {
        //1. Search for record in the db
        //2. Raise event to derived classes
    }
}

I have user controls that inherit from this generic control. Now when I search for a record from the db, I would like to the raise the event to the inherited control.
How can I do this?

A: To raise an event you use same code you would use for a public event:
public void Find()
{
    T record = FindRecordCore();
    if (record != default(T))
    {
        var recordFound = RecordFound;
        if (recordFound != null)
            recordFound(this, new RecordFoundEventArgs(record));
    }
}

To follow normal pattern for events you should add a specific OnXyz method:
protected virtual void OnRecordFound(RecordFoundEventArgs e)
{
    var recordFound = RecordFound;
    if (recordFound != null)
        recordFound(this, e);
}

Invoked like this:
public void Find()
{
    T record = FindRecordCore();
    if (record != default(T))
        OnRecordFound(new RecordFoundEventArgs(record));
}

BUT What I would consider is if here an event is needed. Why don't you simply use a protected method? Events are notifications (or connection points) for external classes, derived classes can always simply override a class method. A protected event is something strange and you should ask yourself the reason for that:
protected virtual void OnRecordFound(T record)
{
    // Derived classes will handle "event" here
}

public void Find()
{
    T record = FindRecordCore();
    if (record != default(T))
        OnRecordFound(record);
}

Even if event was public if you follow normal events pattern (and you have a protected OnRecordFound method) usually derived classes should override OnRecordFound() and event RecordFound is used by external entities.

A: Events are normally fired so someone else can be notified when something happens.
public class SearchBox {
    public event EventHandler<RecordFoundEventArgs> RecordFound;

    protected virtual void OnRecordFound(RecordFoundEventArgs e) {
        var recordFound = RecordFound;
        if (recordFound != null) {
            recordFound(this, e);
        }
    }

    public void Find() {
        // ...

        // Fire event
        OnRecordFound(new RecordFoundEventArgs(...));
    }
}

// Usage
var searchBox = new SearchBox();
searchBox.RecordFound += (s, e) => { ... };
searchBox.Find();   // trigger the eventhandler we just defined

But if you have a derived class, it is more common to override the OnRecordFound method, and add the logic you need to run there.
public class SpecialSearchBox: SearchBox {
    protected override void OnRecordFound(RecordFoundEventArgs e) {
        base.OnRecordFound(e);

        // Do something extra
    }
}

Now whenever the event is fired, the logic in our derived class is run automatically.
If you have defined your event just to notify a derived class, it is probably easier to just define a virtual method that you can call from the base class.

John Stutz-Granddaddy of Physician Office Setups
Edition: November 2001 - Vol 9 Number 11
Author: Repertoire
You've got your father of rock 'n roll (Chuck Berry), your father of the American cavalry (Casimir Pulaski), your father of the Internet (Vinton Cerf, not Al Gore), your father of economics (Ibn Khaldun), and even your father of Taoism (Lao Tzu, of course). Why not a father of physician office setups?
If one were to name such a person, it very well might be John Stutz. Although he passed away 15 years ago, Stutz still leaves a strong impression in the minds of many in the industry today, including PSS President Doug Harper. Stutz was Harper's first boss in the business, when both worked for Boston-based Healthco.
''He was a stocky guy, not a dapper dresser,'' recalls Harper. ''It wasn't unusual for him to wear the same suit or shirt for an entire four-day trip. And you could tell what he had for lunch by looking at his tie.''
But Stutz could sell.
''He understood more about what physicians needed than they did,'' adds Harper. ''And if he got his arms around a physician, he wouldn't let him go until he got the order. He'd almost let the physician upsell himself.''
Stutz worked in automotive parts before joining his wife's family's company, Surgeons and Physicians, in Boston, says his widow, Marguerite Stutz. But he was a born salesman, she says. ''He loved to talk to people.''
Surgeons and Physicians had a showroom for physicians, first on Boyleton Street, then on Commonwealth Avenue, just behind the old Boston Braves' baseball field. [The Braves played their last game in Boston in September 1952.]
''He believed in physicians having more than one examining room,'' says Marguerite Stutz. His theory was, you couldn't be examining someone, and have someone else getting ready for an exam in the same room.'' Makes sense, but not all salesmen at the time ''got it.''
Stutz was working for Surgeons and Physicians when the company was sold to Healthco around 1970. (Ten years later Healthco sold its medical supply business to John Foster, who renamed it Foster Medical. Several years after that, Foster was sold to Avon Products. In 1987, a group of investors bought the company from Avon, and then, in the early 1990s, sold it to General Medical – now McKesson).
Healthco moved the showroom to a sleazy part of town, with its fair share of strip joints and cheap restaurants, recalls Harper. Stutz frequented a local roast beef sandwich shop, and was on a first-name basis with waitresses at a local coffee shop, which in the evenings attracted a colorful clientele. But despite its surroundings, the showroom proved to be a great venue in which to sell, especially for Stutz.
''He had a very nice showroom, with different exam room setups and different types of equipment,'' says Harper. Doctors would come in on evenings or Saturday mornings to look around.
While the physicians would want to poke around the equipment upon entering the showroom, Stutz had different ideas for them, recalls Harper. ''He would never let them begin by looking around at the equipment,'' he says. ''And he would refuse to answer any questions.''
Instead, he would usher them into his office, where he had his planning table, and ask them, ''Doctor, what are you trying to do? Tell me about the complexion of your practice.''
''He didn't want that physician to buy two exam tables and leave. He wanted to sell the entire package.''
For that reason, Stutz would never quote a price for individual pieces of equipment. ''Instead, he'd say, 'Doctor, we'll give you this turnkey for $40,000, or whatever it was, including design, furniture, EKG, scales.'''
Ahead of His Time
Stutz was ''way ahead of his time'' in selling physicians on installing income-producing equipment in their offices, says Harper. A frequent visitor to the showroom was John Sasen, who at the time was with Clay Adams (now part of BD), and who is now executive vice president and chief marketing officer for PSS World Medical.
Stutz was a visionary in several other senses as well, says Harper. For example, he would challenge physicians to think like marketers. ''He'd say to them, 'You don't want to look like the worst-equipped physician in the medical building,''' says Harper. Stutz would single out the new docs who, more often than not, were trying to get started on a shoestring. ''John would say, 'Your patients' first impression is critical. Don't you want your office to reflect your capabilities?'''
Stutz was also the first person who ever spoke to Harper about health maintenance organizations. In fact, through his broad network of friends and acquaintances, he was asked to help set up one of the country's first HMO offices in Tucson, AZ.
Engrossed with the Business
Harper recalls Stutz all but locking him and Sasen in the showroom to talk about new selling ideas late into the night. ''We had families,'' says Harper. ''And we also knew that here we were in this tacky neighborhood, and we'd have to come out at 11.''
Harper also recalls getting a phone call one night from his boss just as Harper was sitting down in his home to watch Monday Night Football. The two talked for the entire game. ''He was so engrossed with the business and the people he wanted to help, he never wanted the day to end.
''But he was a visionary,'' he adds. ''He was always saying, 'What if we did this? What if we did that?''' And he expected those who worked for him to exhibit the same enthusiasm he did.
Harper tells a story about a Healthco sales rep who just about drove Stutz crazy. Rather than trying to sell the physician on a total setup, the rep insisted on quoting prices for individual pieces of equipment.
''One day he approached John for a raise,'' recalls Harper. ''John says to him, 'Stay there for one second.' He runs to the door, which was on a busy Boston street, and yells 'Police!' The salesman asks him what's wrong, and John answers, 'I'm going to have you arrested for impersonating a salesman.'''


I've been on this growing long, healthy hair journey for 6 years now. And when I look more in depth of what has helped me grow long hair, there're definitely patterns or you could call it a hair routine that I follow that I think has made me grow a healthy and long hair. So, today I'm going to share some of my top tips that can help you grow long, healthy hair.
Having a hairstylist that understands you and your goal with your hair is very important when you're growing out your hair. I've had the same stylist for past 5 years and this is the longest and the healthiest my hair has been. When I go to color my hair which is 2x a year. If she asks me for a trim. I'll ask her do I really need it. If she feels that I don't need a trim she'll tell me we don't have to do it this time. I know that many pro's suggest trim every 4-8 weeks, but if you don't need a trim why trim it.
Getting a trim is important but that's on your trim pace. And your hairstylist will help you determine when you need a trim. Trimming your hair isn't going to make your hair grow faster but it will keep it healthier. If you get split ends and you don't cut them right away, they can travel up your hair shaft causing more damage.
Hair doesn't grow over night so don't expect that your hair is going to magically grow in few months. You only get half an inch of hair growth per month and that is only if your hair is super healthy. So be patient and have this be your long term goal. This is me 6 years ago. I know when you're in this situation, it's hard to be patient and you'd want that hair overnight.
I honestly think that wigs helped me keep it together 6 years ago when I shaved my head. And then later switching to Tressmerize hair extensions and hair topper helped me go through those awkward stages while growing out my hair. And that is because this awkward stage can last for about 18 months. Now I know why I could never go through it before and I'd always go to the hair stylist and have her chop it off. This is the first time that I let my hair grow and not touch it, I never even knew that my hair could grow this long.
I know I sound like a broken record about not washing your hair every day, but this is a must on my list for healthy hair. Shampoo even if it's sulfate free strips your scalp of its natural oils leaving your hair dry and brittle. By washing your hair once or twice a week you're giving your scalp enough time to produce the oils that are most beneficial to your hair health. When you do wash your hair only use a shampoo on your scalp and don't massage it down your hair, but let the rest of the shampoo slide down to wash the hair.
When brushing your hair make sure to always brush from bottom towards the roots. I have learned this technique after getting the hair extensions. Being gentle with my hair extensions and hair toppers, made me realize that I should be treating my own hair like this if not even better.
If you tend to wear a ponytail, switch up a placement of the ponytail. Wearing a ponytail at the same spot, can make the hair damage prone around that area, especially using tight elastics while wearing it. To minimize that tension use hair ties like scrunchies, coils or even this dandy tool called pony-o. I love using this one while wearing hair extensions in because it's easier to put the hair through it and it doesn't leave any ponytail marks after i take it out.
Oils penetrates deep into the hair to help restore elasticity. They also Strengthen the hair and repair damage caused by chemicals and other environmental stresses. My favorite oils to use on my hair are sunflower oil and jajoba oil. I love these two because they don't make my hair greasy when I put them in. I use these two oils as a once a week treatment. Where I apply them on my scalp and rinse them out after 20 mins. But I also use them after I style my hair. I'll put some on my fingers and slide it through hair. These oils keep my hair freeze free, and shiny.
We all know that heat is very damaging to our hair. Try to minimize using heat tools on your hair as much as possible.If you must use the heat tools, always use a heat protecting spray before you use it. Make sure that your curling iron and your straightener has a tourmaline plates, they are a lot healthier for your hair.
Eating foods that are rich in omegas 3, Vitamin D, E and iron like: salmon, eggs, avocado, walnuts, spinach, blueberries, yogurt and other foods that have these amazing vitamins and minerals will help with carrying the oxygen to hair follicle, which will result in you having a healthier looking hair.
These are my Top 10 tips that I stick to for growing long hair. I'd love to hear if you're are trying to grow your hair and if you have any tips that I haven't mentioned here. Please leave them in the comments below.

In Cook County Circuit Court, a Chicago jury says that trucking company Inland Traffic Consulting Corp must pay an elderly couple $610,000 for their personal injuries. The couple was injured near the Illinois/Wisconsin border in 2004 when a semi-truck rear-ended their motor vehicle on I-90.
The jury awarded the 80-year-old man $60,000 for rotator cuff injuries he sustained in the Illinois truck crash. They awarded his wife, 86, $550,000 for soft tissue injuries to her upper back, shoulders, and neck. The approximately half a million dollar award is the highest verdict an Illinois jury has ever awarded to a plaintiff older than 60 for soft tissue injuries.
The woman incurred over $55,000 in medical costs and continues to receive physical therapy for her injuries. Her husband required surgery in 2007 for his torn rotator cuff and his medical expenses exceeded $25,000. While the trucking company had admitted negligence, it had argued that the couple was not hurt from the Illinois auto accident to the extent that they claimed.
The "soft tissue" refers to areas in the body that are non-bony, such as the tendons, muscles, and ligaments. These types of injuries are known to commonly occur during motor vehicle crashes, frequently leading to sprains, tears, soreness, and strains. Getting jolted in a truck accident, in addition to the force of impact, can cause significant damage to the soft tissue areas of the body. This can lead to swelling, pain, and loss of function. Whiplash is a common kind of soft tissue injury, which can result in joint dysfunction, chronic pain, and herniated discs.
Because soft tissue injuries cannot be seen via x-ray, they can sometimes be difficult to diagnose. It doesn't help that it can take days for motor vehicle accident victims with soft tissue injuries to start exhibiting symptoms.
The Insurance Research Council conducted a study in 2002 that found soft tissue injuries to be one of the most common kinds of auto accident injuries. Recovery from a soft tissue injury will usually require the help of a medical professional. Physical therapy, as well as medications to relieve inflammation and pain, may also be required. In cases of severe soft tissue injury, surgery and rehabilitation may be required.
The best way to make sure that you receive all of the compensation that you are owed for your Illinois truck crash is to contact our Chicago personal injury law firm today.


EHPAD (Etablissement d'Hébergement pour Personnes Agées Dépendantes, i.e. a residence for the elderly dependent), in Grenoble and Mervans, by Tectoniques Architects.
Tectoniques is strongly attached to the role of architecture in the humanisation of care homes.
As concerns facilities for elderly people, we focus on habitability and quality of life. By definition, there is a problem of repetitiveness and monotony in such establishments. Our emphasis is therefore on differentiation, a qualitative approach to intermediate contexts, ergonomics and climatics. A new generation of specialist care homes must adapt to longer periods of occupancy and a more residential type of utilisation. A facility for the elderly is no longer simply a care unit or a "parking zone". It is a home in its own right, and also a place for people to receive visits from family and friends, who are given such a mediocre reception in many current facilities.
The two projects presented here illustrate this ethos. They respond simultaneously to three criteria: the residents' quality of life and wellbeing, the optimisation of day-to-day functioning, for both users and staff, technical and economic rationality.
Physical wellbeing subtends psychological wellbeing by providing a diversity of ambiances and spaces articulated round a dialogue between privacy and sociability. This results in architectural choices based on the character of the site, including gardens and patios. There are multiple vistas, both inner and outer, that enrich the residents' sensorial stimuli, and in turn increase the degree of appropriation, particularly in the private sphere. As regards "decoration", the collective spaces are not homogenised or standardised. There are lively, contrasting colours and a variety of materials, with a bias in favour of wood and its derivatives.
The architects wanted to get away from the traditional idea of hospital-type accommodation, notably by optimising the relationship between architecture and landscape, and, in general, receptiveness to the outside world. They see gardens as spaces for mediation and cohabitation between buildings and their surroundings. And this is a central feature of both the Grenoble and Mervans projects. Though enclosed, they are visually open. They are friendly and sociable for the users, with fountains, vegetable gardens and meandering walkways, either covered or exposed.
Particular attention is given to hygro-thermic comfort during hot weather. Systematic air conditioning is avoided in favour of ground-coupled heat pumps, active solar protection, nocturnal ventilation, extra insulation for the facades, and planted-out roofs. Acoustics is also a sensitive point, given that many of the residents have hearing problems. Each aspect of utilisation is treated individually.
The two programmes are quite similar in size and specifications.
The Grenoble complex was designed for 80 people, and that of Mervans for 82.
Each possesses an Alzheimer unit of 15-20 beds.
They are divided into living units of around 20 beds, each with its own services: dining room, bathroom, treatment facilities and a garden (on the ground floor) or a patio (on the first floor).
The reception and activity spaces are shared, and are also available to people from outside on a day-care basis.
The contexts of the projects are somewhat different.
The one in Grenoble is an EHPAD (Etablissement d'Hébergement pour Personnes Agées Dépendantes, i.e. a residence for the elderly dependent), which marks the culmination of a major municipal development covering 22 hectares in the south of the city.
The project occupies a trapezoidal city block. Though flanked by apartment blocks 5 or 6 storeys high, the facility itself is low in profile, on account of the legislative constraints to which it is subject.
The complex has two facets: to the west, on Boulevard Vigny-Musset, there is a continuous frontage that gives a homogeneous alignment and a degree of protection, notably from noise pollution; to the east, facing the residential sector of the development zone, the building is open, and its gardens form a continuity with the public space.
Two gardens have been created between the three wings of the accommodation units. This configuration preserves openness, and ensures a placid, uninterrupted mediation between the EHPAD and the rest of the city, allowing its occupants to observe and relate to the world beyond.
The two levels of the edifice are separate and distinct. The ground floor is a plinth in sweeps of white concrete, with broad, transparent areas. It comprises the reception, shared spaces, the kitchen and technical facilities. The accommodation is on the upper floor, which is in wood with a facing of dark, slightly metallised panels, in contrast to the whiteness of the walls below. It is larger in area than the ground floor, and the resulting overhangs form sheltered galleries along the facades facing the garden. Architecturally speaking, this arrangement lightens and dynamises the outline of the building, and the residential part is perched above the garden and the public spaces of the development zone. The roof, which is visible from the upper floors of the neighbouring buildings, has been entirely planted out, and is free of any artificial presence other than the solar panels on the central wing.
The second project is that of Mervans, in the Burgundy region. It is located in a residential area in the midst of a flourishing natural setting, with traditional architecture characterised by simple forms and broad roofs.
The project fits in with its surroundings. Its two main buildings are segmented into six blocks that replicate the scale of the neighbouring constructions. Horizontally, they undulate; vertically, they face in different directions, forming an agglomerate without any apparent pattern. The folds and planes are idiosyncratic rather than clear and unambiguous.
Overhanging roofs accompany this movement, contrasting with the overall silhouette. They are covered in zinc, with narrow eaves fascias, and the gutters are integrated into the facades so as to conserve the simplicity of the lines.
Unlike the EHPAD, whose facades are smooth and tense, the architectural style of the Mervans project is marked by considerable graphic complexity linked to the presence of a highly figured exo-structure in wood. Within this structural plan there are large windows that represent "landscape pictures".
Specialising in dry construction techniques, Tectoniques has for long been interested in the principles associated with timber frame buildings. The firm is active in numerous sectors of architecture, including public buildings, housing and leisure facilities, with a strong commitment to environmental standards. Tectoniques applies construction protocols that are at once simple, clean and progressive.

Heidelberg: A Fairy Tale Town
By Emma Harvey
"Behind the Castle swells a great dome-shaped hill, forest-clad, and beyond that a noble and loftier one. The Castle looks down upon the compact brown-roofed town; and from the town two picturesque old bridges span the river. Now the view broadens; through the gateway of the sentinel headlands you gaze out over the wide Rhine plain, which stretches away, softly and richly tinted, grows gradually and dreamily indistinct, and finally melts imperceptibly into the remote horizon. I have never enjoyed a view which had such a serene and satisfying charm about it as this one gives." ~ Extract from A Tramp Abroad, by Mark Twain
Heidelberg is an idyllic university town in Baden-Württemberg, south-west Germany, situated on the banks of the river Neckar in a steep valley in the Odenwald, bordered by the Gaisberg, Heiligenberg and Königsstuhl mountains. If you are a history enthusiast, lover of the outdoors or admirer of the arts, this town tucked away in the Rhine Valley is for you!
You take a stroll through the narrow, cobbled streets of the Baroque Altstadt, surrounded by colourful buildings with old-fashioned window shutters and vibrant, overflowing window-boxes, such as the iconic, Renaissance-style Hotel Zum Ritter. Towards the market square, past the oldest university in Germany, you see the Heidelberg Rathaus and Heiliggeistkirche, whose tall steeple rises up above the rooftops. The market square buzzes with activity. Locals, tourists and students bustle back and forth, whilst others sit outside cafés drinking coffee. Then you turn down a side-street towards the river Neckar, through the Old Bridge Tower, where you pose for a photo on the old, cobblestoned bridge with various statues from the Roman Goddess of Wisdom to Elector Karl Theodor. All the while, the stunning mountains create a perfect, fairy-tale background. You look up towards the Königsstuhl hillside and see the gothic ruins of Heidelberg Castle sitting proudly at the top. You rush to make your way up the hill, stopping frequently, but determined to get to the top, realising once you are at the top that you could have taken the Heidelberger Bergbahn from Heidelberg's Kornmarkt. However, the climb is worth it! The ancient Schloss Heidelberg is jaw-dropping and even more breath-taking are the scenic views from the top of Königsstuhl. You feel as if you have walked into a fairy tale. No wonder so many artists and writers are inspired by Heidelberg's romantic landscape and the 13th century sandstone castle, nestled in the hills. You go into the castle and on a walkway above the Heidelberg Tun, the biggest wine barrel in the world and take a walk through the Deutsches Apotheken Museum. Finally, you follow in the footsteps of 18th and 19th century romantics such as Goethe, along the northern banks of the river and through the exotic Philosopher's Garden, charmed by the incredible views.

Unfortunately this story on Scott Wilson, AA/FD driver from Ontario, is in black and white off the microfilm.
The big Thunder Boats raced at Kelowna for a few years.
Track of Thunder. I don't think I've ever seen it. Looks promising?
Dig that Ford, that crazy Ford.
a day late with a birthday greeting.
While the ad said "modified stocks" I'm not finding any results for them. It might have been only super stocks and claimers this evening.
Another regular night of racing at Langley.
Al Prendergast rolled in main. Was uprighted by crew and carried on after red flag.
Al Mullet blew up during qualifying so he did not participate. Took a hit in points.
A big unlimited super stock race.
Mid-Summer Unlimited Super Stock Special.
Hemrich started in the back of the inverted field. On lap seven he spun putting him to the back again. He moved up to second with ten laps to go, challenging Ron Eaton for the lead, only to hit the wall and bend his tie rods. His front right camber was out but he held on to finish second.
Harold Hardesty, Medford, OR, again couldn't get a good finish after three visits to the track.
A regular evening of racing. A definite lack of heat results though. Seems to have been an ongoing problem.
There were sprinkles of rain throughout the evening.
Not sure if I've done much of these before. But, if I have, here they are again.
A minor hit. They mispronounce GTO for artistic purposes I suppose.
Another race at off White Rock beach with the hydroplanes.
The previous year Ross Blewett had won in his class. In 1962 brother Milton won a class trophy.
Some more from the White Rock Sun archive. This time hydroplanes at White Rock from 1961.
Once in a while something new is mentioned and I can find some info on it.
I was asked if I knew anything about a motorcycle beach race at White Rock in 1959 and 1960.
I didn't. But I've managed to get a little info on the 1959 race.

VANCOUVER, BC, UNCEDED COAST SALISH TERRITORIES – Today's announcement by federal Environment and Climate Change Minister Catherine McKenna promises changes to a gutted, out-of-date federal environmental review process. However, the changes don't go nearly far enough to address climate change or Indigenous rights.
While Minister McKenna talked about how projects would be reviewed under a strategic climate plan and cumulative impacts in her news conference, none of those details have been publicized.
These changes remain inadequate and come too late for opponents of the Kinder Morgan pipeline. The project got approval under the deeply flawed National Energy Board process, despite a promise to subject the project to a new review. During the announcement today, Minister McKenna said Kinder Morgan would also have been approved under the new rules, suggesting it will be fossil fuel business as usual.
Unclear from the Minister's announcement is how much say Indigenous peoples will have on project reviews and decisions.
"If the government is saying it's wrong to move forward on projects without Indigenous communities on board, then they're admitting it's wrong to move forward on Kinder Morgan and projects like it and it's time for that to be reflected in policy," Coste said.

Raiders bench Derek Carr with playoffs all but lost, $33M injury guarantee looming
Jason Owens
December 28, 2022, 2:11 p.m. ·3 min read
The Las Vegas Raiders have benched quarterback Derek Carr with two games remaining in the regular season.
Head coach Josh McDaniels announced the news on Wednesday.
Jarrett Stidham will start in his place on Sunday against the San Francisco 49ers and presumably in next week's regular season finale against the Kansas City Chiefs. Carr will be inactive. The Raiders are still mathematically alive for the postseason at 6-9, but last week's loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers all but eliminated them from reasonable contention.
Meanwhile, Carr is due $33 million next season that's fully guaranteed in case of injury. He'd also be guaranteed $7.5 million in 2024 in case of injury, The Athletic's Vic Tarfur reports. According to the report, the Raiders front office met on consecutive nights this week to discuss the course of action regarding Carr.
"There's a lot to be sorted through once the season is over," McDaniels said Wednesday.
Carr and the Raiders mutually agreed after the decision that he would step away from the team for the last two weeks of the season to avoid being a distraction, according to multiple reports. Carr did not publicly respond to his demotion on Wednesday.

Carr has been the Raiders starter for nine seasons since they selected him in the second round of the 2014 draft. He's missed just two regular season games in his career. He missed both of those games because of injury.
The decision raises obvious doubts about his future with the franchise. Carr has made three Pro Bowls in his nine seasons, with has last arriving after the 2017 campaign. The Raiders have made the playoffs twice with Carr at quarterback, including a wild-card berth last season. They've not won a playoff game since 2002.
In 2022, Carr's completed 60.8% of his passes for 3,522 yards with 24 touchdowns and 14 interceptions. His completion rate is his worse since his rookie season and a steep drop from his 68.4% rate in 2021. His 14 interceptions are the most in the league through Week 16. He threw three interceptions in Saturday's 13-10 loss to the Steelers that all but eliminated them from the postseason.
The Raiders hired McDaniels last offseason in part because of his prowess as the longtime offensive coordinator for the New England Patriots. Carr and the Raiders offense regressed in his first season as head coach. McDaniels and general manager Dave Ziegler will be under pressure in their second season together to show improvement on offense and in the standings regardless of who's playing quarterback.
Davante Adams responds
The Raiders also traded last offseason for All-Pro receiver Davante Adams, a close friend of Carr's who played with him at Fresno State. Adams spoke with reporters Wednesday afternoon while wearing a Fresno State hoodie.
"Obviously, I don't think anybody was excited about it in here," Adams said. "Him being one of my really good friends and the reason why I came here in the first place.
"I wouldn't be here right now if he wasn't here. ... Obviously I support my guy. We've got to finish the season up the best way we can possibly with all things considered at this point."
He confirmed that he's spoken with Carr since the decision and declined to address how Carr's demotion impacts how he views is place with the Raiders.
Adams isn't the only Raider who's close with Carr, who's a respected leader in the locker room. Moving on from him in Las Vegas is not a decision that would be taken lightly.
Flames rebound with impressive 5-2 win over Kraken
SEATTLE (AP) — Tyler Toffoli, Elias Lindholm and Blake Coleman each had a goal and two assists, and the Calgary Flames topped the Seattle Kraken 5-2 on Friday night. Calgary rebounded impressively after getting surprisingly routed at home a day earlier in a 5-1 setback to lowly Chicago. The Flames topped the Kraken for the second straight time in Seattle, took two of three in the season series and headed into their All-Star break on a high note. Lindholm deflected a pass from Toffoli at 7:16 of
Sabres hang on for 3-2 victory over Jets to extend win streak to five games
WINNIPEG — Alex Tuch was pretty confident he could set up Tage Thompson for a goal on Thursday. He was right. The Buffalo Sabres forward skated toward the side of the net and then quickly passed the puck back to Thompson for a one-timer that beat Winnipeg Jets goalie Connor Hellebuyck. Thompson's 34th goal of the season helped the Sabres beat the Jets 3-2 to extend their win streak to five games. "He's always ready for the puck, so when you can find him in an open area ... he's going to bury it,

ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) — Mats Zuccarello, Kirill Kaprizov and Freddy Gaudreau scored in the shootout, lifting the Minnesota Wild past the Buffalo Sabres 3-2 on Saturday night. Joel Eriksson Ek and Jared Spurgeon had goals in regulation for Minnesota, which headed into its All-Star break with two wins in a row.

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) — Damar Hamlin released a video Saturday in which he says he's thankful for the outpouring of support and vows to pay it back, marking the first time the Buffalo Bills safety has spoken publicly since he went into cardiac arrest and needed to be resuscitated on the field in Cincinnati on Jan. 2. Noting he continues to make "much progress" in his recovery, Hamlin said now was "the right time" to speak since the Bills' season ended and because he needed time to recover and
McVay, LA Rams hire former Jets OC Mike LaFleur
LOS ANGELES (AP) — The Los Angeles Rams hired former New York Jets offensive coordinator Mike LaFleur on Friday to join Sean McVay's quest to fix one of the least productive offenses in the league. LaFleur spent the past two years with the Jets in his first stint as an NFL offensive coordinator, but New York struggled statistically in both years while missing the playoffs twice. He parted ways with the Jets (7-10) three days after the regular season ended. LaFleur will follow in the footsteps of
Prince George curlers win B.C. blind championships, set to compete at Western finals
Terry Pipkey's vision has been deteriorating for three decades, and now he can barely recognize the face of the person standing in front of him. But the longtime Prince George resident is part of a local curling club that won the B.C. Blind Curling Championship held in the Central B.C. city in early January. Pipkey says he has no central vision, so he has to leverage his peripheral vision to win the game. "Blind curling is quite similar to just regular curling — it's just that because of our vis
Bengals powered by 3 young stars: Burrow, Chase, Higgins
CINCINNATI (AP) — Joe Burrow says the Cincinnati Bengals' championship window should stay open for years. "The window is my whole career," the franchise quarterback said matter-of-factly after the Bengals clinched their second straight AFC North title. His confidence is understandable given the offensive weapons available: Receivers Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins have gained 1,000 yards in back-to-back seasons, making them the first pair of Bengals wideouts to do that since Chad Johnson and T.J.
BOSTON (AP) — Jaylen Brown scored 37 points, making a tying three-point play with 4.1 seconds left in regulation and adding 11 more in overtime as the NBA-leading Boston Celtics snapped a three-game losing streak by beating the archrival Los Angeles Lakers 125-121 on Saturday night. Brown added nine rebounds, Jayson Tatum had 30 points and 11 rebounds, and Malcom Brogdon scored 15 of his 26 points in the second half of a see-saw game that had 19 lead changes — six in the fourth quarter — and 15
VANCOUVER — It's little wonder Andrei Kuzmenko captured the hearts of Vancouver Canucks fans so quickly. In a season marked by loss and frustration, the Russian forward with the dimpled grin, gravity defying hair and enthusiastic goal celebrations has been a rare bright spot both on and off the ice. And after signing a two-year extension, that bright spot is sticking around. "I am happy in Vancouver. Why not sign to two years? I think is a good deal for two sides," Kuzmenko said Friday. The deal
Panthers hire Frank Reich over Steve Wilks as head coach
CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Frank Reich is returning to the Carolina Panthers as their coach, more than 27 years after starting the franchise's first game at quarterback in 1995. The Panthers announced Thursday they've agreed to terms with Reich to become the sixth head coach in franchise history. Reich was chosen among nine candidates who interviewed for the job, including former New Orleans Saints head coach Sean Payton and this season's interim head coach, Steve Wilks. The 61-year-old Reich joins
PHILADELPHIA (AP) — San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy was questionable to return to the NFC championship game on Sunday after he took a hard hit to his right elbow in the first quarter. Purdy was drilled in the arm by Philadelphia Eagles linebacker Haason Reddick on a play that was ruled a fumble. The Eagles recovered and Purdy was examined on the sideline. Purdy was replaced by backup Josh Johnson. Johnson, who signed with the 49ers in December, threw two passes this season. Purdy mad

Home Entertainment James Caan, 82, the Sonny of the movie 'The Godfather' has died
In his private life, he often changed his partner (four wives), and each of her leaves at least one child as a dowry.

His mentor and associate, Francis Coppola, has just celebrated in Taormina the 50th anniversary of the masterpiece of both, "The Godfather" when James Caan abandons him, and the family chooses to communicate today, via social media, that the vigorous actor of that film (he was Sonny, Don Vito Corleone's abusive and impetuous son) has left in silence at 82 years old.
Strange to say, despite the Oscar nomination and the undoubted personal success, James Caan did not like to identify with the character of the Americanized mafioso and laughed at the cliché that many in Hollywood believed he had Italian roots.
The fact is that in the noir genre and its surroundings, he often found himself reaping important successes: "40,000 dollars not to die" by Karel Reitz, "Killer Elite" by Sam Peckinpah in the 70s, "I will find them at any cost" (from himself directed) and Michael Mann's "Violent Roads" (possibly his personal masterpiece) in the 1980s; Rob Reiner's "Misery Must Not Die" and even Kelly Makin's ironic "Mickey Blue Eyes" car in the 90s, up to Guillaume Canet's unexpected "BloodTies" and Carol Morley's "Out of Blue" with which it closed his career in 2018 virtually.
Born in the Bronx on March 26, 1940, the third son of a butcher of German descent, young James grows up in the violent streets of the New York suburbs; he is a listless student in Queens and then at the University of Hempstead where he meets his lifelong friend, Francis Coppola, for the first time. Caan, however, leaves school early to enrol in the acting classes of Sanford Meisner, his Pygmalion. He will appear uncredited on the set of "Irma la dolce", will be noticed on TV with the series "The Untouchables" (1962), starring with John Wayne in "El Dorado", finds Coppola (now a novice director) in "Non I'm going home tonight "(1969). The myth of him is Steve McQueen, the emblematic protagonist of a rough and vital America in which passion and desire to succeed are more important than culture.
He can choose manly roles (football player, abusive cop, hardened poker player, loyal soldier, cowboy at sunset) and will never deny his friendship with a character of dubious fame (tried for mafia) like Jo Jo Russo, undisputed head of the Persico family.
In his private life, he often changed his partner (four wives), and each of her leaves at least one child as a dowry: in the end, there are five, and with one, Scott, who works to create a platform for young independent authors.
In politics, James Caan has always been a fervent Republican (like his friend Bruce Willis) and was personally committed to Donald Trump's presidential campaign. However, as often happens to the heroes of American machismo, he hid a fragile character that had thrown him into a serious depression at the beginning of the 80s, forcing him away from the set for five years and leaving him with a dangerous addiction to cocaine from which he was able to free himself only thanks to Coppola who offered him the starring role in "Giardini di Pietra".
In public, he instead showed a smiling face, ready for jokes and revelry in the company. It is difficult to imagine an American more American than him, and that is why great directors like Sam Peckinpah and Michael Mann had made him an ideal icon.

Hey guys ! Today I'll be doing a review on the Pixi Skintreats Glow Tonic Exfoliating cleanser.
This is one product that got a lot of buzz in the beauty community . My first encounter was on beauty blogger Caroline Hirons page on Instagram and I saw the comments , then I noticed there were quite a number of very positive reviews online , I was so eager to try it out.
I did what any sensible person would do , I went on google and read about it .
This is what the Pixi Glow Tonic is all about.
So I was excited about this and told myself I had to get one. I love toners and there is no way I proceed to the next step for skincare after leaving the shower without using a Toner. The Pixi Glow Tonic ingredients include ginseng, aloe Vera and some good stuff so I was happy and the best part was it was alcohol free. The next step for we was to purchase one asap!
One day , I observed Youtopia Beauty had it in stock so I hurriedly went to get one . I think it was about 15,000 or so (I bought other things so i cannot remember) at the time which was quite pricey but the exchange rate was quite high. It's actually priced at £18 so do the math . It's currently priced at 20,000 on Youtopia beauty site here . Anyway , let's get into the review.
I finally had a bottle and I couldn't wait to use it. The ingredients got me excited as well . After a bath , I usually tone my face before applying my make up.Before purchasing the Pixi Glow Toner, i was using the Olay Toner, the one that contains witch hazel and it does wonders for my skin.
For some strange reason, The Olay toner does it for me, it isn't drying or irritating to my skin and I've used it for almost 2 years.
My Olay Toner, You can see it's almost finished. i love using my products till the very end, that way I can get honest reviews.
Back to my Pixi Glow Tonic, Finally i poured some on a cotton pad and wiped my face. The honest truth was as soon as I was done , I figured I had an instant glow after I used it, (this is because I imagined the name Glow Tonic lol), the effect on my skin was mild and felt like I had wiped off any impurity and replaced it with an instant glow moisturizer,it wasn't drying as well. After that I applied my makeup and moved on. I used it every other day till the bottle finished .
This product to me is just like any regular toner, a step any beauty enthusiast cannot do without during your daily skin routine. Its ingredients are great for the skin and its not too drying. if you like a mild toner that actually cleanses, this is the right product for you.A little product goes a long way as I used it on my face and neck.
I can actually do without this particular product as it did nothing remarkable or memorable for my skin perhaps its not meant to be visible .My skin reacts to products very easily so since I didnt notice anything visible, I figured I could go back to my previous product. Its definitely a good toner but for the price i expected a "wow! OMG I cant do without this toner effect " which of course didnt happen. I had very high expectations I must admit.
Are you using the Pixi Glow Tonic? Does it work for you? people swear by it, Share your thoughts.
MUA @iamdodos used this on me for a shoot I did with Style story and I added it to my list. Its soft and alluring.
She used the Laura Mercier translucent setting powder for this look and I was sold!!!
