Blood is drawn from you, platelet rich plasma (PRP) is extracted from your blood, platelet derived growth factors (PDGF) are concentrated and activated.
After numbing the sites to be injected with a numbing cream, very specific sites of the genitalia are painlessly injected in an effort to increase sexual sensation and curb urinary incontinence.
Men have been blessed with various medical breakthroughs for sexual enhancement, from Viagra to Cialis to pumps, and most recently the P-Shot. Finally we have a new, natural sexual enhancement breakthrough, call it a gift from mother nature, to benefit women who desire much needed relief from slumping sexual response, arousal, libido, orgasm, vaginal/clitoral health and self esteem … not to mention respite from urinary incontinence. We are proud to introduce the O-Shot in Chicago, performed by The Nexus Clinic doctors.
- The O-Shot® (Orgasm Shot®) procedure is a specific way of using growth factors to rejuvenate the vagina for help with stress incontinence and sexual response.
- The Femi-shot procedure is modeled after the Vampire Facelift. Please read about the Vampire Lift to fully understand the O-Shot. Males interested in sexual enhancement,click here to read about the P-Shot.
What is the O-Shot?
Remember the scene in “When Harry Met Sally” when Meg Ryan fakes the orgasm in the deli? She says that at one time or another every woman has faked an orgasm. What if there was a shot that could enhance the female orgasm? That’s exactly what the O-Shot aims to do. We are among the first to have introduced the O-Shot to the women of Chicago. The procedure involves an extremely specific injection technique, where isolated components from your own blood are drawn and skillfully re-injected into the female genitalia to help female urinary incontinence, to improve dyspareunia (painful sex and intercourse) and to increase sexual arousal. Take your sex life and your ograsms to a new level with the O-Shot, the rejuvenating clitorial injection for increased vaginal health. Results can be experienced on the day of the procedure.
Why get an O-Shot?
The O-Shot is a simple in-office procedure to help female urinary incontinence, boost sex life, enhance sexual arousal/response and rejuvenate the general overall health of female genitalia and self confidence.
Where is the O-Shot injection site?
A certified member of our medical staff will skillfully and painlessly perform the injection with very tiny needle into specific sites of the female genitalia.
What does the O-Shot consist of?
The O-Shot consists of essential growth factors that hold your platelets, which are the tiniest cells in your blood, medically called platelet rich plasma (PRP).
Who can benefit from the O-Shot?
Any female who struggles with urinary incontinence, painful sex, dyspareunia, or decreased arousal during orgasm can benefit from the O-Shot.
What are the benefits of the O-shot?
Of course every woman’s personal experience and outcome is different, but women who have received the O-Shot have reported the following benefits:
- Improvement of urinary incontinence, dramatic in some cases
- Arousal from clitoral stimulation is greatly intensified
- Stronger, more youthful orgasm
- Younger, healthier skin of the lips of the vagina, labia minora and majora.
- More frequent orgasms
- Increased libido and sexual desire during sex
- Ability to have a vaginal orgasm returned after being post childbirth
- Relief from painful sex for those with dyspareunia (painful intercourse)
- Increased natural vaginal lubrication (especially when combined with Femi Lift)
- Tighter vaginal wall
How long does the O-Shot procedure take?
The O-Shot procedure takes about 30 minutes.
Where is the O-Shot procedure performed?
We perform the O-Shot procedure in our safe and private Liposuction and Cosmetic Surgery Institute facilities in Chicago, Oak Brook, Naperville and Arlington Heights.
How soon can results be apparent after the O-Shot procedure?
Some patients report same day results. However, we give everyone a few weeks to regenerate and rejuvenate at their own pace.
How many sessions of the O-Shot are necessary?
Most patients see results after only one treatment, but many other patients have the O-Shot procedure as needed after one treatment.
What is the downtime associated with the O-Shot?
There is no downtime associated with the O-Shot.
What are the key benefits associated with the O-Shot?
The key benefits of the O-Shot are as follows:
- Female urinary incontinence improvement
- Non surgical vaginal and sexual stimulation improvement
Is the O-Shot painful?
No, we will use a local anesthetic cream to ensure you remain comfortable during the O-Shot procedure.
How long do the O-Shot results last?
Results vary individually, anatomically and physiologically with respect to age and hormonal status.
What other procedures can be complementary to the O-Shot?
- Hormonal optimization when indicated
- Femi Lift to improve female vaginal laxity and looseness
Are problems like urinary incontinence and lack of vaginal sexual stimulation common or am I the only one?
One out of every three women struggle with sexual stimulation, and the numbers increase when you examine exclusively middle-to-upper-aged women. What is most disheartening is the number of young women who face sexual stimulation problems. These statistics can be misleading, because they are gathered from women who are psychologically distressed. They do not account for those women who do not speak out about it because of shame. What’s makes it worse is no blood test exists to diagnose the problem. Imagine if high cholesterol is not treated unless the patient suffers a heart attack? It is possible and unfortunate that women learn to tolerate less enjoyable sexual experiences and with time consider the suboptimal condition normal. Because of this large silent majority some medical professionals estimate the number of women struggling with sexual stimulation closer to 60-70 percent of women. Who knows how many there are in our world? What negative effect does that have on our families?
So why do so many women suffer in silence?
- According to research, less than 14 percent of women discuss sex with their doctors.
- Many doctors avoid talking about it fearing it may be misconstrued as inappropriate.
- Many feel embarrassed, both patients and doctors.
- Fear of being labeled with sexually derogatory slang words.
- Many were told it’s a “psychological” problem, an imagined problem “in their head.”
- Lack of proper therapeutic options. Most were either given anxiety drugs or synthetic hormones.
How does PRP work?
Research in other fields, such as orthopedic surgery, neurosurgery and cardiology shows when our own platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is injected back into an area of our body, the released growth factors entice the stem cells to multiply and grow new younger tissue. PRP regenerates the skin of the face, in addition to tendons, ligaments, nerves and blood vessels. PRP aims to regenerate healthy vaginal tissue. So, using this same technology, the O-Shot was invented, by using PRP to stimulate stem cells to grow healthier vaginal tissue.
Please understand that there is no magic or gimmick with the O-Shot. This is scientific; it stimulates tissues and blood supply. The O-Shot alone will not lead to an amazing sexual experience. To achieve that type of experience other factors are also needed, such as good general health, a loving relationship, a relaxed state of mind and hormonal balance. We highly recommend a hormonal consultation with us to evaluate and explore hormonal optimization to find the best ways to activate your orgasm system. We are diplomats of American Academy of Anti Aging Medicine, and we practice hormonal optimization for women and men.
Is there a risk of adverse reaction to PRP?
To date not a single case of PRP-related adverse reaction is reported. Remember, we use your growth factors, from your blood, which are re-injected into the treatment site.
How does the O-shot help regenerate healthy tissue?
When your platelets are isolated from your blood, concentrated, then activated, the end result is stimulation of the release of at least seven different natural growth factors. These precious growth factors trigger the the awakening of the stem cells to grow younger tissue–activating your natural stem cells of the entire vaginal region.
While on the surface it appears that the doctor merely injects the PRP-growth factors into the vaginal area, the O-Shot is a precise procedure that aims to enhance vascularization, revitalize the woman within. Many women enjoy the effects of the O-Shot™ on the same day as the procedure as the growth factors begin to rejuvenate and enhance the sexual structures and response. So, the O-Shot® (or Orgasm Shot®) is a non-surgical procedure that uses the growth factors each woman has in her own body to stimulate vaginal and clitoral rejuvenation to activate the female orgasm system. Almost all women receiving O-Shot™ procedure enjoy an increase in their sexual response, and for many the increase is dramatic.
Does O-Shot (PRP) help Lichen Sclerosus et Atrophicus?
Yes, this is a debilitating genital scar forming autoimmune disease of unknown cause and no definitive cure. But PRP treatment is known to provide relief. Wikipedia reports that research in this area is very promising with regard to reducing symptoms and lesions. Please inquire with our staff.
What does the O-Shot cost?
Expect the O-Shot to be about $1000-1900 per vial.

Shipping billionaire Idan Ofer continues to up his ownership in Ireland-based product tanker owner Ardmore Shipping.
In a US Securities and Exchange Commission filing, the Israeli shipowner reveals he now controls 10.55% of the New York-listed company.
The 3.625m shares are owned by EPS Ventures, which is wholly owned by Quantum Pacific Shipping, a discretionary trust in which Ofer is the beneficiary.
Earlier in April, an Ardmore filing revealed that companies controlled by Ofer had taken a 9.53% holding.
The new amended filing on form 13G does not contain information on Ofer’s intentions for his investment.
The form is typically used to indicate a stake of more than 5% when there is no aim to influence control of the company.
But the move will inevitably fuel speculation that the Israeli owner could go for a takeover or merger involving Ardmore and his own companies.
Fellow tycoon John Fredriksen bought a 10% stake in tanker owner Euronav last year, and is now trying to engineer a merger with his own Frontline.
Fredriksen also described this stake as a pure investment at first.
Ofer is believed to be the biggest shareholder in Ardmore, ahead of US fund Private Management Group on a little over 8%.
Always a takeover target?
The Ardmore share was trading up 2.9% at $5.67 on Monday, making Ofer’s stake worth more than $19.5m, based on a market cap of $195.2m.
Ardmore has not commented on the Ofer shareholding.
The shipowner is a perennial object of takeover speculation, which chief executive Anthony Gurnee has acknowledged.
Ardmore has a fleet of about 30 product and chemical carriers ranging between 25,000 dwt and 50,000 dwt, including tankers that are commercially managed or finance-leased.
Wide tanker interests
Ofer is best known for giant Singapore company Eastern Pacific Shipping, and has interests in tankers, bulkers, container ships and gas carriers.
The tycoon is also associated with Ace Tankers, the Dutch shipowner that recently acquired six stainless steel chemical carriers from Singapore-based Hafnia for $252.4m.
Hafnia had acquired those last year in its takeover of Oaktree Capital Management’s Chemical Tankers Inc.
In 2019, Eastern Pacific swooped on the 13-ship chemical tanker fleet of Hafnia parent BW Group.
And TradeWinds reported that Ofer and his Eastern Pacific bought a stake of around 3% to 4% in New York-listed Scorpio Tankers in the same year.
The magnate has long wanted a public tanker company. He failed with a $200m listing for his Quantum Crude Tankers company in Oslo in 2014.

Kate Plus 8 star Kate Gosselin wasn’t the mother Collin Gosselin gushed about in a recent post, so it looks like she attempts damage control. Kate posted how she went above and beyond for her sextuplets on their 16th birthday.
The mom of eight picked up 21 kinds of junk cereal for her sextuplets. She explained how she got carried away with the kids’ request for a “birthday lunch”. The former TLC star posted this tidbit on social media but it sounded a little off to the fans.
Kate Plus 8: Kate Gosselin Offers Fantasy Birthday?
If fans didn’t know better, they’d swear the Kate Plus 8 long-time star had all six her 16-year-olds with her. But she doesn’t. Yet the fans point out that she shares this post like she played mom to all six on their birthday.
Kate Gosselin broke her social media silence as the sextuplets turned 16. Jon Gosselin also posted a birthday wish to all six of the kids. But there’s no mistaking where he’s coming from. While Jon has only two of the six kids with him, he made sure to address his post that way.
Fans pointed out Kate Gosselin’s ship has sailed for any chance of her becoming a Kool-Aid mom. Followers of this mom of eight express online how the 21 boxes of junk cereal don’t cut it.
The fans point out how the sudden appearance of sugar-loaded breakfast won’t make up for the past. Kate Plus 8 viewers are well aware of what the kids went through with Kate Gosselin at the family helm.
Collin Gosselin Glowing Mother’s Day Tribute Not For Kate Gosselin
Kate suddenly sounds like she has all the kids under her roof. But this might have something to do with a post by Collin Gosselin. The young man reportedly still harbors some anger for his mom. She institutionalized this son for a few years. Collin Gosselin gave Jon Gosselin’s long-time girlfriend a Mother’s Day shout out instead of his Kate Plus 8 mother.
Did Collin Gosselin hit a cord that made the Kate Plus 8 matriarch surface on social media once again? Maybe it’s just a coincidence that Kate’s post suddenly sounds like something the mother of the year might write. Kate writes that she got a bit “carried away as usual” when the kids asked for something.
So, in that one sentence, it seems this celebrity mother sizes herself up as a mom who goes above and beyond when attempting to fulfill the wishes of her kids. The Kate Plus 8 household consists of only four of the sextuplets. Kate Gosselin’s place is also home to her 19-year-old twins, Cara Gosselin and Mady Gosselin. But they are away at college most of the time.
Jon Gosselin has full custody of Hannah Gosselin and Collin Gosselin, two of the sextuplets. The other four, Aaden, Joel, Alexis, and Leah Gosselin live with their mom. They were also the kids who ate a junk cereal lunch, as their mom calls it.
Kate Plus 8: Mom of Eight Painted a Kool-Aid Mom Picture
When Jon posted his happy birthday wishes for the kids, he didn’t spin anything that would leave the fans guessing. He tells the four children who Iive with Kate that he misses them. But instead of painting a realistic picture, the Kate Plus 8 reality star mother sounds like she served all six kids a birthday lunch filled with sugar.
This break of silence for the TLC reality show star comes after Collin’s now-deleted Mother’s Day message for Jon’s girlfriend, Colleen Conrad. Collin wrote how there’s much more to being a mom than supplying clothes and food.
His idea of a mother-figure is someone who is there to talk to and listen. He then sends his mother figure, Colleen, his happy Mother’s Day wishes.
Headlines had Collin “dissing” and throwing “shade” on his Kate Plus 8 biological mother with his tribute to Colleen. Did this rattle Kate enough to spin what some fans see as a misleading post?
While the kids who live with the celebrity mom enjoyed the benefits of sugar for their birthday lunch, Collin and Hannah did not. Still, it sounds like she pumped all six kids up with “junk cereal for their birthday. With brand-name cereal going for around $4-$5 a box today. So if you do the math, that birthday lunch probably set her back about $100.

Sharing some amazing recommendations on this Portland, Maine guide! Our trip took place in the early fall, but would recommend visiting any time of the year. We went to some really great cafes, bars, and restaurants that are a must if you are in the area. The city is so quaint, easy to get around via foot or Uber, and full of culture- it’s a must visit, especially if you are on the east coast! I hope this Portland, Maine guide can be an easy point of reference for a future trip (also check out my highlight on IG which captures moments in real time!)
Holy Donuts – 11/10 must-go if you’re in the area! Award winning shop serving potato donuts + gourmet coffee- we loved the dark chocolate sea salt + apple cider donuts. Can’t recommend enough.
Tandem – Incredible coffee, pastries and sandwiches served in a converted 1960s gas station! Highly recommend you try the pastries, they are delicious (we loved the kimchi pastry).
Batson River Brewery – Moody + chic brewhouse serving craft spirits, beers + bites! Recommended as a late lunch/ dinner option!
Lone Pine Brewery – Serves yummy beers with weekend food trucks! Great for outdoor seating and hangouts.
Blythe & Burrows – Vintage-inspired cocktail bar with house cocktails + upscale small plates. There is a speakeasy in the back, so definitely ask for that to enhance your experience 🙂
Root Wild Kombucha – Brewery that specializes in kombucha and tea infused beers – highly recommended if you like kombucha. Raspberry, Ginger and Lavender Pine were our faves!
Even Tide – Tiny seafood joint with a raw bar, lobster rolls + cocktails. Lobster roll was delicious in taste but super, super tiny. Highly recommend the bloody mary + extra dirty dirty martini!
Luke’s Lobster – Very laid-back spot on the water. Lobster roll was yummy + fresh, but I wish it was a bit more lemony (my own personal preference). Overall the vibes and views were great here.
Taco Escobarr – Funky + colorful relaxed tavern known for its fish tacos + margs! Open until 1 AM.
Central Provisions -11/10 MUST-TRY! Eclectic menu + serving tapas style plates. Highly recommend the chop salad! Take a seat at the chef’s counter for a unique and personal experience. Can’t recommend this spot enough.
Street and Co – Simple & rustic bistro known for linguine with clams! We personally thought the food was way too salty, but service + ambiance were great.
Via Vecchia – Chic Italian restaurant offering small plates. Highly recommend the campanelle pasta!
Peaks Island – Popular for biking + kayaking and accessible only by ferry! A few restaurants, cafes and markets are scattered around the harbor. Great for an early day/afternoon visit.
Dearing Oaks Park – Beautiful farmer’s market to walk around, small in size. Open Wednesday + Saturday 7am-1pm.
Cape Elizabeth, Portland Headlight – A staple to visit when in Portland. Oldest lighthouse in Maine – completed in 1791! If you plan to Uber there, schedule your return pickup because the service is extremely poor.
Blanch and Mimi – Curated bundle of new + vintage treasures!
Gus and Ruby – Such a cute place to stop. Stationery boutique and letterpress print shop- personal favorite!
Sherman’s Bookstore – Maine’s oldest bookstore! A staple to visit 🙂

As you know, the Motorola Moto G6 is the most popular and influential phone in the world today. If you are new to the Motorola world, your knowledge of the Motorola Moto G6 will cause some problems. You think these issues seem complicated. I don’t think so. It’s all about your experience. If you’re strictly a new user, you’d think so.
This article will help you quickly solve all the problems with your Motorola Moto G6. Many issues with Motorola Moto G6 XT1925-12 can be identified by enabling safe Mode on the device.
Most Motorola users follow this method. But there are other ways to troubleshoot your device. Doing a master reset on a Motorola Moto G6 doubles the work.
What is Moto Safe Mode?
All third-party apps on your device will be disabled. Only activate pre-installed apps and turn off safe Mode to restore them. Something like after resetting your phone. (No data is lost, you can disable it only) If you are facing “screen overlay detected” or checking for a virus app, microphone, sound not working, or slow, you can use safe Mode.
What Does Safe Mode do?
The purpose of Safe Mode is to troubleshoot your Android and determine why it is not working correctly. You can restart Android and use it generally if the problem is resolved. Also, read why can’t I Send and Receive Pictures on My Motorola Phone?
How to Turn Off Safe Mode on Motorola G6?
- Press the Power key until Power Off appears on the screen, then release the Power button.
- Touch and hold Power off on the screen.
- When Reboot to Safe Mode appears, touch OK.
- The phone will reboot, and Safe Mode will appear in the lower-left corner.
- Test in Safe Mode to see if the problem remains.
Still confused? Watch the video to get a better understanding.
If you need to turn on safe Mode on your Motorola phone, you should know how to do it.
How to turn on safe Mode on Motorola Moto G6?
Here are some steps to follow:
Turn off your Motorola Moto G6 by pressing and holding the power button for a few seconds, as shown below, and selecting an option.
After turning the device off, press the power button to turn the phone back on.
After powering on the Motorola Moto G6, immediately press and hold the Volume Down key when the Motorola logo appears, or wait until the screen first lights up.
Release the power button when you start pressing the Volume down key. Because, at that time, you could only press one button.
Press and hold the Volume Down key for a few seconds until the restart is complete and the lock screen appears. Then correctly check that the Safe Mode icon is displayed in the left corner of the screen.
When you see the lock screen and safe Mode, release the Volume down key. You can now unlock your Motorola with the lock screen.
Why is my Moto G6 in Safe Mode?
If your Moto G6 phone is running slowly or shows an error message, you can reboot in Safe Mode. Safe Mode starts your phone without launching any third-party applications. This will allow you to open the apps individually to see which apps may be causing the problem.

The scale of the baths is also quite large, and in fact, there are many relics of the baths in this place. This remains can still be seen by us. At that time, they paid great attention to bathing in the lives of the rich.
The remains of the ancient Roman baths are a historical building for hundreds of years, and the rule of the Roman period extends here. The baths here are all in the form of open air, and the area of the baths is very large.
[Scenery] The natural scenery is quite beautiful
[Cost-effective] high cost
The baths are also preserved in this site. They are relatively intact. It is said that one of the biggest characteristics of the ancient Romans is that they like to be clean, so their baths are also very, very good.
Rome is a real bath in ancient Rome, eg, it is a bit of a walk through, and it is a very strong feeling of the times that made us feel like we were in the past, the bustling Roman times
The famous ancient Roman baths in the small town of Bath, witnessed the life of 2500 years of Roman times. The lower baths are connected to the underground hot springs. To this day, there are still warm springs flowing out, and they have maintained this state for more than ten thousand years.

The Salvation Army's place in history
- Reed Jackson
- Portland Tribune - Features
Exhibit highlights impact of religious group on Rose City
'To make a difference, one human being at a time' has been The Salvation Army's goal throughout its 146-year existence. And, the national Christian organization with the distinctive red shield logo has quite the history in the City of Roses.
For 125 of those years, The Salvation Army has helped change Portland lives, one at a time, and a new exhibit at the Oregon History Museum pays homage to its local philanthropy and influence.
'Red Shield of the Rose City,' tells the history of The Salvation Army's work in our city, which spans way beyond collecting loose change in its signature red kettles during the holidays. The exhibit runs through Dec. 31 at the museum, 1200 S.W. Park Ave.
'Almost everyone knows about The Salvation Army - their red shield is iconic - but not many people understand the actual origins of the organization and how they've been involved in big moments in Portland's history,' says Morgen Young, a consultant historian hired by the Oregon Historical Society to research and write for the exhibit.
It was 1886 when Capt. Mary Stillwell, leader of The Salvation Army's Cascade Division, set up the Pacific Northwest's first headquarters. She led the first open-air worship service on the corner of Southwest Fifth Avenue and Burnside Street.
Evidently Portlanders back then were not fond of being preached at - what else is new, right? - and were hostile to the 'Salvationists,' eventually turning a fire hose on Capt. Stillwell and badly injuring her.
The Salvation Army's message of help, hope and salvation eventually gave way to tolerance, however, and the organization has worked closely with the area's most in-need ever since. In May 1948, for example, the city of Vanport, home to nearly 40,000 people between Portland and the Columbia River, was ruined when about 200 feet of a dike, collapsed flooding the town. The Salvation Army led relief efforts, feeding and clothing more than 2,000 victims.
'From Camp Trestle Glen becoming the first Salvation Army summer camp established west of the Mississippi, to the Army hosting at that time the city's largest Thanksgiving dinner at PSU in 1971, there are numerous instances the organization has contributed to the historic fabric of this city,' Young says.
Visitors of the exhibit can view artifacts and pictures from many of these instances. Black and white images of early 20th century Portland line the walls, displaying significant figures of the local Salvation Army's past, including Joe 'the Turk' - a colorful Turkish-born 'spiritual father' who spent some time in an East Portland jail. A green wool female soldier uniform - probably similar to the one Capt. Stillwell adorned - is displayed proudly.
You can even take home a replica of the donut recipe members of The Salvation Army used to feed servicemen with at Union Station during World War I.
Tribune Photo: Christopher Onstott • To commemorate the 125th anniversary of "soup, soap and salvation" in the Pacific Northwest, The Salvation Army has collaborated with the Oregon History Museum to create the original exhibit, 'Red Shield of the Rose City: 125 Years of The Salvation Army in Portland,' on display through December.
Booth's rowdy followers
The exhibit also displays information concerning The Salvation Army's original formation overseas in 1865. William Booth, a young minister who unconventionally preached in the streets of poor neighborhoods rather than in churches, hoped to win over the 'lost multitudes of England.'
Many churches would not accept Booth's followers, which were made up of thieves, prostitutes and gamblers, so he challenged his converts to save others like themselves. In only two years, Booth had gained more than 1,000 followers and would lead them throughout the British Isles and eventually into the United States, spreading the gospel worldwide.
Perhaps the most interesting aspect of the exhibit, though, is how telling it is of the organization's continued importance within the community. According to Constance Grecco, community relations director of The Salvation Army's Cascade Division, the organization is influencing the lives of close to 20 percent of the city's population.
The facts given on the display panels of the exhibit back up her claim. During the past century, The Salvation Army has opened Portland-area service centers and buildings, including a maternity home for unwed mothers and an apartment building for low-income seniors.
Today, there are four Army buildings in Southeast Portland alone.
'It shows the progress of what The Salvation Army started 125 years ago,' Grecco says. 'Society's needs have changed, but we're still here for the people.'
The organization has created a new logo - the famed red shield has downtown Portland's skyline behind it - to celebrate its 125 years of service to the city.
The exhibit is open each day, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. (opening at noon on Sundays), through the end of December. Admission is free for residents of Multnomah County.

Deca Durabolin 300 is prevailing trade name for injectable form of the steroid, Nandrolone. It has become one of the famous drugs which is widely used for muscle gain, for immunity power and as a reliever of joint pains.
History of Deca 300: Organon developed anabolic steroid with the name Deca Durabolin in 1960 and released the drug into the market in 1962. It is originated from the drug, Nandrolone which is produced in 1957. As an injectable form, the half life cycle of the drug is extended by the introduction of Deca 300 and so it became the one of the largest and popular drug which is used all over the world. The drug became popular due to its beneficial properties such as retaining nitrogen levels in the body, adding strength and size to the muscles, improves bone density, increases red blood cell count and raises progesterone levels. Thus, Deca Durabolin is more effective than any other drugs that are available in the market.
Dosage and Benefits of Deca 300: The dosage of Deca 300mg each week for your cycle is depended upon the age and gender of a person. Men who are new to the usage of the drug can take up to 300 mg per week, while the people who are using it can increase their dosage up to 600 mg per week. Some of the women also consider Deca as profitable drug for them. Due to its incredibly long active half life, Deca became one of the best steroid in comparison to the other available steroids in the market. Deca can be stacked with other supplements for additional benefits or to decrease the side effects of the drug. Some of the important and useful benefits of using Deca is it is used in the treatment for HIV/AIDS patients for whom the body muscle can be built safely and their immune system is strengthen. It is a popular drug which cures joints and bone related problems. This drug helped in boosting of intestinal calcium absorption and bone mineral count thus increasing bone density. It also increases red blood cell count and improves ones oxygen carrying capabilities which helps muscle building efforts too. Deca is one of the prominent among older body building generations. The drug is not harsh on the organs such as liver, kidneys etc such as other steroids Winstrol etc.
Side effects results of Deca 300: Although Deca steroid is approved by FDA that it could treat anaemia and osteoporosis, there are some limitations and side effects that could result upon its usage. It was discovered that it could be a form of birth control as it can effect levels of natural testosterone production in the body. And some of the side effects include bladder irritability, acne problems, diarrhea, nausea and insomnia. The side effects can be reduced by using Deca with other supplements such as testosterone etc. Thus dosage and diet can reduce the side effects and makes Deca 300 prominent and famous drug that can be used for better results.

Ostrog ADV LED Gaming Fortress Mid-Tower Chassis
The front bezels frame is made of ABS plastic, and as it curves around the corners, it is molded in black. The white line you see running just inside of that is the LED ring, and the entire center section of this bezel is made of steel mesh. There is naming at the top and bottom of the mesh panel, and while the top allows for the bay covers to be removed, the lower section is one solid panel.
The lower solid section is also removable, for two reasons. One reason is that it is the dust filter for the intake, and the second reason is that it allows access to the fans without the need to remove the entire panel.
Behind the front bezel, at the top of the Ostrog ADV, we immediately run into the front I/O panel. The top row offers USB 3.0 ports, HD Audio jacks, USB 2.0 ports, and the light switch to cycle through the modes. The lower row provides the reset button, power and HDD LEDs, a large power button, and a three position fan switch to the right.
Behind the I/O panel is a section of steel mesh ringed with the white LED section, mimicking what we saw on the front of this chassis. The mesh insert is also removable with the finger grip at the back, and allows access to fans or liquid cooling below it, again eliminating the need to pull the entire section off.
From the left side, the chassis looks chunky with the thick top section and bulky feet supporting it at the bottom. The panel aligns well to the frame of the chassis, and the window is clear, beveled around the edge, and quite large.
At the back, under the thick top cover, there is room for the motherboard dust shield next to the 120mm exhaust fan. Below that, there are seven colored slot covers which match the theme, and next to it are holes for external water cooling under the side panel handle, just above the mesh, leaving room for the PSU at the bottom.
The right side of the chassis is an identical match to the left side. The only thing that changes in this panel is that the window is left out of the panel, but the steel has been shaped outward and placed in the same location. This time rather than a view, the expanded section of steel offers more room for wiring behind it.
Under the Ostrog ADV chassis, we see a long dust filter for the PSU and optional fan, which is slid out the back of the case. The large feet have large rubber pads to ensure a solid footing, and we see some venting near the front and finger holes for removal of the bezel if needed.

Charles Ripley has a good job as an engineer, a pretty wife, and an expensive house in a fashionable San Diego suburb. But it isn't until Ruskin Marsh moves in next door that Ripley realizes how passionless his life really is. Marsh, a connoisseur of the arts, high-powered lawyer, model husband and father, and effortless seducer of women, is so supremely alive that Ripley finds himself irresistibly drawn to him.
But after Marsh's arrival, local girls begin to vanish, marriages end violently, nights are split with endless, desperate screams, and horribly mutilated corpses are found. Soon, Ripley becomes caught up in an accelerating maelstrom of sex, drugs, violence, and ghastly, unimaginable rites...and begins to see the beauty of life.
From its profoundly unsettling first pages, Eric C. Higgs's The Happy Man (1985) reveals the nightmare underside of the American dream and brilliantly echoes the Gothic horror tradition of Edgar Allan Poe and Roald Dahl.
"The Happy Man is an essential '80s horror read: smart, sharp, unforgiving, unlike anything else in the genre." - Too Much Horror Fiction
"[A] grisly shocker, understated for the most part but carrying the impact of a fist to the stomach...a most promising debut." - San Diego Union
"A thoroughly engrossing Gothic horror story." - South Bend Tribune

In the opening moments of Eric C. Higgs’s The Happy Man: A Tale of Horror, we learn of a murder – the Marsh family has been shot dead next door. We’re told this by Charles Ripley, whose first-person account gives us insight into the San Diego neighborhood he inhabits. The victims next door are not the only murders this neighborhood has seen recently, and Ripley recounts the events leading up to this penultimate act of violence. In fact, strange things have been brewing ever since the Marshes moved in…
Outside of his marriage, Ripley doesn’t have a lot of friends and few men he can connect with. He quickly bonds with the newly arrived Ruskin Marsh, and their wives form a fast friendship. As Ripley and Marsh become better acquainted with each other, Charles is introduced to a very rare work of writing from the sexual libertine Marquis de Sade. Entranced by Marsh’s own sexual exploits and lack of inhibitions, Ripley soon finds his own constraints diminishing and begins straying into extramarital affairs and, soon enough, darker exploits encouraged in de Sade’s writings.
Narrated by Matt Godfrey, The Happy Man is a slow-burn work of suburban horror that finely balances placidity with hair-raising, horrifying drama. This is a well-crafted work of psychosexual drama, and Godfrey’s reading of the material captures the feel of a neighborhood friend telling you a crazy story. At only a bit over 5 hours long, Godfrey keeps the narrative moving along nicely. Higgs, meanwhile, keeps the work grounded, and the moments of horror are never implausible or outlandish. Higgs earns each of his twists and turns by giving us believable characters and a pot-boiler narrative that slowly builds toward the inevitable.
Written in 1985, and recently reissued by Valancourt Books, The Happy Man taps into the anxiety of The Other with its themes of sexual promiscuity, casual drug use, fear of immigrants, and the rise of the Christian Right and their idea of what constitutes family values. While this latter is never overtly mentioned, given the period Higgs was writing in I can’t help but feel like much of this book is a response to the political climate surrounding it. Marsh is very much a hedonistic figure, the kind of guy Nancy Reagan would encourage you to Just Say No! to, and his arrival to this suburban neighborhood threatens to destroy everything his fellow yuppies hold dear, upsetting the balance of their perfectly coiffed all-American lifestyles. With its themes of racism and the sexual objectification of women, The Happy Man is very much a product of the 1980s, yet much of horrors its reacting to, and certainly expounding upon, still feel topical today. Higgs takes all the fears of 80s Evangelicalism and runs with them toward their worst-case finale – the destruction of families at the hands of an outsider. It’s telling, though, that while Mexican immigrants are often blamed for some of the seedier aspects of this white collar, upper-crust San Diego subdivision, the root cause of their problems lie much, much closer to home. Perhaps, in between the moments of eroticism and shocking violence, Higgs was trying to tell us something after all.

Facebook will now go by the name Meta, the company announced Thursday by pulling down a curtain draped over its iconic ‘Like’ sign outside its Silicon Valley headquarters Thursday.
Meta refers to the ‘metaverse,’ which is the company’s new venture into shared augmented reality and virtual world environments for working and playing that people can access via the internet.
It comes as the company is ensnared in controversy relating to whistleblower Frances Haugen’s leaked documents and bombshell claims that the company ‘puts profits over people.’
The firm’s original, flagship social media site and app – Facebook – will keep its moniker, but Facebook Inc., the parent company that also owns Instagram and WhatsApp, will now go under the new title.
Facebook will now go by the name Meta, CEO Mark Zuckerberg announced Thursday at the Facebook Connect augmented and virtual reality conference
It includes a new logo depicting a blue infinity symbol and refers to the ‘metaverse’, the company’s new focus to expand beyond its social media apps
The announcement, which came at the Facebook Connect augmented and virtual reality conference, includes a new logo depicting a blue infinity symbol and refers to the ‘metaverse’, the company’s new focus to expand beyond its social media apps.
The term ‘metaverse’ can refer to digital spaces, which are made more lifelike by the use of virtual reality or augmented reality.
‘Our mission remains the same, it’s still about bringing people together,’ he said, adding, ‘Now we have a new North Star to help bring the metaverse to life.’
He added that the word means ‘beyond’ in Greek and symbolizes that there is ‘always more to build’ and ‘always a next chapter in the story.’
‘I believe the metaverse is the next chapter of the Internet and it’s the next chapter of our company too,’ he said, adding, ‘While most etch companies focus on how people could connect to technology, we focus on building technology so people could connect with each other.’
Zuckerberg has previously suggested the metaverse to be future of the company, and has been talking up the metaverse since July.
The company has invested heavily in virtual reality and augmented reality, developing hardware such as its Oculus VR headsets and working on AR glasses and wristband technologies.
The buzzy word, first coined in a dystopian novel three decades earlier, is popular in Silicon Valley and has been referenced by other tech firms such as Microsoft.
The move is reminiscent of when Google abruptly renamed itself Alphabet in 2015, making Google a subsidiary and allowing it to become a technology conglomerate.
Zuckerberg has previously suggested the metaverse to be future of the company, and has been talking up the metaverse since July
In the metaverse, users’ avatars move and change their expression in real time with the user
The company has invested heavily in virtual reality and augmented reality, developing hardware such as its Oculus VR headsets and working on AR glasses and wristband technologies
But the burning question on the minds of many is whether the name is enough to help Meta shake off it’s mounting public relations nightmares.
For the company’s independent oversight board, the answer is no. The group released a statement shortly after the announcement, saying, ‘Changing their name doesn’t change reality: Facebook is destroying our democracy and is the world’s leading peddler of disinformation and hate.’
It continued, ‘Their meaningless name change should not distract from the investigation, regulation and real, independent oversight needed to hold Facebook accountable.’
In addition to a new drop of documents from Haugen, last Monday. U.S. officials announced Meta had agreed to pay pay up to $14.25 million to settle civil claims by the government that the company discriminated against American workers and violated federal recruitment rules.
And last Tuesday in the U.K., the company was fined £50.5 million ($70 million) after failing to provide enough important information to the competition regulator investigating the firm’s takeover of GIF sharing platform Giphy.
Britain’s Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) launched a probe into the acquisition in June last year, shortly after the deal was announced, over concerns about a ‘substantial lessening of competition.’
Facebook responded to the fine, saying: ‘We strongly disagree with the CMA’s unfair decision to punish Facebook for a best effort compliance approach, which the CMA itself ultimately approved. We will review the CMA’s decision and consider our options.’
Facebook has also admitted that users can share information about how to enter countries illegally and about people smuggled on its social media platforms.
The admission comes as Arizona Attorney General Mark Brnovich urged the Department of Justice and US Attorney General Merrick Garland to investigate the social media giant over its ‘facilitation’ of illegal migration into the United States.
The move could benefit the California-based behemoth’s reputation, which has suffered hit after hit in recent years. The company had been facing a number of scandals long before its controversy over the Facebook Papers.
It was accused of facilitating the spread of misinformation during the 2016 US presidential election, prompting a a series of congressional hearings and policy changes, including the introduction of third-party fact-checkers and further transparency in political advertising.
In 2019, the Federal Trade Commission fined Facebook $5 billion for allowing 87 million US profiles to be harvested for information used for political advertising by British firm Cambridge Analytica.
Some of the advertising was used to help the 2016 campaign of former president Donald Trump.
When announcing the new name, Zuckerberg paid no notice to any of the scandals or Facebook papers, but focused solely on Meta’s goals going forward.
Those familiar with the popular children’s game Roblox already know the metaverse as it describes itself as a metaverse company. Epic Games’ Fortnite is also considered to be part of the metaverse.
The metaverse is ‘going to be a big focus, and I think that this is just going to be a big part of the next chapter for the way that the internet evolves after the mobile internet,’ Zuckerberg told The Verge earlier this year.
‘And I think it’s going to be the next big chapter for our company too, really doubling down in this area.’
On Sunday, Meta announced it was hiring 10,000 people in Europe to build the metaverse out.

OTEC Präzisionsfinish puts AIRUS-Team TED in pole position
The Shell Eco-marathon is one of the biggest energy efficiency competitions in the world. The challenge is to design a vehicle that can travel further than any other on just one litre of fuel. Drivetrain friction plays a huge part in this. AIRBUS’s team TED (Technologies et Energies de Demain) has the advantage of OTEC Präzisionsfinish know-how: targeted surface processing technology that produces a marked improvement in the tribological properties of drive components.
12/20: OTEC mass finishing Solutions for the food industry
Food production systems: automated surface smoothing for components
Cast, milled and turned machine components for food production have rough surfaces and sharp, unhoned edges. This not only leaves products prone to food residues and micro-organisms as well as contamination by small fragments from unstable component edges, but also results in high levels of component wear and therefore shorter service life. Efficient mechanical surface processing eliminates these problems.

BOOSTING EFFICIENCY: OTEC MEETS THE DEMANDING REQUIREMENTS OF AIRCRAFT CONTROL TECHNOLOGY
Precision deburring and smoothing of roughness peaks along with defined edge rounding on bushings and spools not only reduces friction in the valve but also increases its contact ratio. High-precision processing also enables the closest possible tolerances – a critical factor in system tightness. It also permits a higher switching or stroke frequency, significantly increasing control accuracy.
03/20: Automotive: Targeted Surface processing has measurable benefits
No doubt you’ve seen in the press that the EU plans to introduce automotive industry fines this year. Manufacturers will have to pay Brussels €95 for every newly licensed combustion engine vehicle that exceeds the CO2 threshold of 95 g/km. According to the Council on Clean Transportation, aver-age emissions in 2018 were 121 g/km.
Florian Reinle, an R&D engineer at mechanical engineering company OTEC Präzisionsfinish, high-lights how vehicle manufacturers can optimise their production processes and reduce friction at the same time.

WASHINGTON – At a time when states are struggling to reduce bloated prison populations and tight budgets, a private prison management company is offering to buy prisons in exchange for various considerations, including a controversial guarantee that the governments maintain a 90% occupancy rate for at least 20 years.
Federal Bureau of Prisons director Harley Lappin speaks during a news conference at the Thomson Correctional Center in Thomson, Ill., in 2009.
The $250 million proposal, circulated by the Nashville-based Corrections Corporation of America to prison officials in 48 states, has been blasted by some state officials who suggest such a program could pressure criminal justice officials to seek harsher sentences to maintain the contractually required occupancy rates.
"You don't want a prison system operating with the goal of maximizing profits," says Texas state Sen. John Whitmire, a Houston Democrat and advocate for reducing prison populations through less costly diversion programs. "The only thing worse is that this seeks to take advantage of some states' troubled financial position."

Magee Marsh boardwalk opens for birders during peak season
Bird area open four weekends, but trails accessible anytime
CARROLL TOWNSHIP - As the clock hit 8 a.m. Friday, a Division of Wildlife staffer walked up to a door to Magee Marsh Wildlife Area's popular boardwalk area and unlocked it.
That's not usually how birding season kicks off at Magee Marsh's boardwalk, where thousands of bird enthusiasts nationwide converge in Ottawa County annually during peak migration.
It didn't matter to Rebecca Torisky.
She drove up from Marysville and stood first in line Friday, eager to see the warblers and other birds she missed last year.
Torisky normally comes up to Magee Marsh at least once a year and her trek is a much shorter trip than those taken by birds that migrate through the marsh.
'It's a miracle to see'
"These birds have traveled thousands of miles to get here. It's a miracle to see," Torisky said, after she displayed her permit that is required this year to access the boardwalk.
This is the first year since 2019 birders are allowed on the Magee Marsh boardwalk during peak migration season.
The weeklong Biggest Week in American Birding celebration typically draws more than 90,000 visitors to Northwest Ohio.
COVID-19 forced the cancellation of the 2020 Biggest Week, with the pandemic and road flooding closing access to Magee Marsh during last year's peak migration.
Meredith Gilbert, an Ohio Division of Wildlife communications specialist, said the boardwalk is accessible this year by permit only, Friday-Monday for four weekends in May.
"Everything else in Magee is open. We have some new trails that opened this year for the spring migration season," Gilbert said.
Up to 200 people an hour are allowed on the boardwalk during the peak migration season.
Kelly Schott, an ODNR communications specialist, said in April the permit requirement and limits on boardwalk visitors is a concession to the COVID-19 pandemic and an effort to social distance people in what is normally an extremely congested area.
This is Torisky's seventh year visiting Magee Marsh. She tends to stay at least two nights.
To not be able to visit the marsh's boardwalk last year was sad, Torisky acknowledged.
"I looked at it as what people had to do to adjust to the pandemic and do their part," she said.
A passion for the marsh's warblers
Part of what makes Magee Marsh's boardwalk special to Torisky is its warblers.
They're usually hard to see, flying high and fast through the trees.
At the marsh during peak migration, Torisky said she and other birders can at times take photos of warblers with their cell phones at eye level.
She also finds Magee's prevalence of shorebirds and cranes appealing.
"I don't see them near Columbus often," Torisky said.
While Magee Marsh draws thousands of avid birders like Torisky, it also attracts new visitors.
On his initial visit to the boardwalk Friday, Chathu Sirimanne of Detroit said he saw a bald eagle for the first time and plenty of other birds he'd never previously seen.
"We're planning to come back soon," he said, as he exited the boardwalk.
This year, the Biggest Week in American Birding will be held virtually May 6-10 with Black Swamp Bird Observatory holding online birding workshops and programs.
Vast variety of birds includes tanagers, orioles, other songbirds
Gilbert said during the next several weeks, Magee Marsh visitors will see several wood warbler and songbird species coming through the area.
Early bird migrants like the yellow rumped warblers and yellow warblers already are being seen at Magee Marsh.
Gilbert said birders will start seeing more scarlet tanagers and Baltimore orioles soon, with most other warbler and songbird species coming in the next week or so.
She said May 8 and 9 are expected to be the busiest days at the marsh.
Other popular regional birding sites, including neighboring Ottawa National Wildlife Refuge (ONWR), Metzger Marsh Wildlife Area, Howard Marsh Metropark, Maumee Bay State Park and East Harbor State Park will have public trails open for visitors.
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service usually sees about 50,000 birding enthusiasts visit ONWR from across the United States and a few foreign countries in a six-week period stretching from mid-April through the end of May.
Jason Lewis, ONWR's refuge manager, said visitors will be required to wear masks, socially distance and be generally mindful of other birders at the Ottawa County site.
About 25 to 30% of ONWR's annual visitors usually come during peak bird migration season, although those numbers declined last year.
Lewis said on a given day during peak migration, pre-pandemic, there could be 1,000 to 2,000 birders visiting the refuge.
ONWR had 361,000 visitors in 2020, with an overall 10% increase even with the decline in birders in April and May, he said.

"Murder in Mexico": CNN reports on border incident (Falcon Lake, TX) as to whether drug wars affect ordinary Americans
Should civilian Americans, most of all those in Texas, particularly South Texas (and maybe other border states) be concerned that drug cartel violence in Mexico could endanger them? Associated with the cartels would be a form of “piracy”.
CNN re-aired its report “Murder in Mexico” about the murder of David Hartley, dumped in Falcon Lake on the Texas-Mexico border at Zapata County, after the couple (with wife Tiffany Hartley) had gone boating looking for a half-submerged old church. The story is here.
The report seemed to suggest that the cartels that use the lake have an unwritten code not to disturb uninvolved civilians. But mistakes happen.
The right wing has been saying that a porous border would allow Al Qaeda terrorists to come through Mexico.
Landowners, especially in southern Arizona, have run into legal issues defending their property against random illegals. That’s a whole business for law firms in Phoenix.

The tracklist for Super Junior’s comeback album “Sexy, Free & Single” has been revealed!
Scheduled to be released via online music portals on July 1, Super Junior’s sixth Korean album “Sexy, Free & Single” will have a total of ten songs, with each track showcasing a different musical style and dimension of the group.
From R&B styled songs to dance tracks to ballads, fans can look forward to hearing a variety of musical genres from Super Junior.
The title track “Sexy, Free & Single,” which is said to have a combination of R&B and house music, will be about the success stories of sexy, free and single men. With a catchy chorus and easy-to-remember lyrics, “Sexy, Free and Single” is bound to find favor with all Super Junior fans.
Also on the album is the upbeat R&B styled “From You,” which is a song that Super Junior has dedicated to ELF, their worldwide fan base. “From You” will also be promoted along with the title track “Sexy Free & Single,” so fans can look forward to seeing the group perform both songs on all music shows.
Another track on Super Junior’s comeback album is “Gulliver.” With lyrics written by Eunhyuk, “Gulliver” will use the novel “Gulliver’s Travels” as a way to describe the charismatic charm of each Super Junior member. Members Leeteuk, Shindong, Eunhyuk, and Donghae will lend their rapping skills to the song, while fellow member Ryeowook’s charming vocals will be incorporated into the track as well.
Super Junior will also be doing a remake of Lee Sangeun’s “Someday” on the album and showcase their matured vocal skills through the song.
Another song on the album is the track “Now,” which has an upbeat tempo and refreshing melody. With lyrics that describe the fun of a summer trip to the beach, “Now” will be released just in time to welcome the climax of summer.
While the song “Now” will show a more carefree side of Super Junior, the track “Rockstar” will showcase the group’s rocker charm. A song that combines elements of both electronic and hip-hop music, “Rockstar” will have lyrics that describe the passion and charm of a singer on the stage.
The rest of the tracks on Super Junior’s comeback album are “Bittersweet,” which will be sung by members Yesung, Sungmin, Kyuhyun, and Ryeowook; “Papillon,” which is a dance track that provides encouragement for those who are feeling down; “Lingering,” which is a ballad; and “Breakup Day,” which is said to follow a creative and novel musical style.
