Hair plugs practically represents some sort of surgical procedure which usually seeks to moving healthful hair follicles from much thicker region of the head, which is the donor site, to the spot enduring the hair damage, called the receiver area. Virtually FUE beard transplant harley street , a multiple frizzy hair plug surgical session may well possibly be required although that will be based on the degree regarding the tresses loss, typically the width as well as colour of the hair. The truth is that will frizzy hair plugs are quite simply the matter of the particular past because so many of modern-day medical lessons are carried out with follicular systems injected with needle cracks. That usually means you will find no plugs and no your punches but all hair operation done individually and consecutively. However, there are really several types of tresses plug strategies that can be dependent on both equally the type and shape of the hair graft from often the donor site. These kinds of methods are as follows:
Mini-grafts – there will be three or four hair transplant periods performed at a moment.
Slit grafts : the average of four to be able to ten hairs follicles happen to be transplanted with these grafts in a single session.
Punch grafts rapid this quite simply benefits among ten to 15 hair follicles on a treatment.
Strip grafts – a large number of grafts are utilized up during that scientific period. So throughout some sort of program, about forty five plugs or even more can turn out to be harvested and transplanted to be able to the balding area.
In accordance with clinical research, patients qualified to apply for transplant period had issues with the use of curly hair plugs however, not with locks transplant procedures. Some of them further posited of which plugs using five or perhaps more hair follicles manufactured their head of hair resemble those of corn rows or maybe plaything. However, medical doctor assured of which such clients can go back later on their physician in addition to have them pack in-between the plugs, but in addition preserved it is very unneeded to go through this specific process especially when utilizing the FUE (follicular unit extraction) procedure.
Hair transplant medical procedures like the FUE process will be way ahead throughout terms of desire by patients, which is a new least invasive clinical procedure to reverse hair decline. This occurs when the millimetre graft is taken out from behind the mind rather than strip off the particular scalp and so each follicular device commonly contains between 1 to help 4 curly hair follicles. Subsequently, there will be no visible scar issues obvious with the subscriber web page, after the hair transplant surgical procedure is concluded which can be very much dependent upon the skills of the medical professional. A lot of probable patients are known in order to prefer the tresses transplant surgeries like the NeoGraft system for instance, because it is the great of the instant and possibly the best sort immediately after automated VA technology. With hair operation like the particular NeoGraft, a good person can have as much while two thousands of five hundred (2500) grafts done on one sitting, which often is about six thousands of (6000) hairs follicles, very unlike the hair stopper technique.
This is almost unusual today to think about that a good highly knowledgeable clinical locks surgeon even now uses “plugs. ” techniques. The FUT and HA SIDO hair operation are often the new methods they have carried out today and the results are most natural and sturdy. More recent methods like the particular FUE and FUT can be known to make make use of of one as effectively as double follicles for more improved aesthetic results. Therefore these hair plugs are classified as the old conventional procedures connected with hair transplant used in order to slow or correct locks loss or maybe hairloss. Tresses transplant surgical procedures are typically the new technology, state — of -the-arts, more organic than larger tresses ear canal but said to provide reduced density. Suffice the idea to mention that hair transplant medical procedures is most definitely a better choice as compared with the antiquated hair plugs. Basically, hair plugs have consequently become a good outdated method of hair restoration when as opposed with today’s technologies.

Is SSD Always the Better Option?
Posted on April 15, 2022
There has been a movement toward Solid State Drives (SSD) in the last few years. The reasons are obvious – an SSD operates much faster than a traditional hard drive and isn’t susceptible to mechanical faults.
And while they used to sport very little storage capacity and were prohibitively expensive in the early days of the technology, modern SSD drives are much cheaper and offer similar features to a hard disk drive.
So, should you always go for an SSD storage option? Let’s find out.
Fast and Reliable
The advantage of going with an SSD drive for your embedded application is the direct increase in performance. Not only are the read-write speeds much higher than a mechanical hard disk, but the error rate is much lower.
Both of these factors are crucial for any industrial or commercial setting, where slowdowns and failures can have serious repercussions. This is especially true for things like web servers, where the computer has to handle millions of access requests in real-time.
SSDs, like flash drives, also support random access. This means there is no time lost as a mechanical arm moves to another disk when requesting a different file. All data on an SSD can be accessed at the same latency, which is great for any application.
Great For Rugged Use
Another use case for SSDs is when an embedded computer is meant to be deployed in harsh settings. Normal hard disks fare poorly in environments with dust, debris, or high temperatures, to say nothing of vibrations and physical impacts.
This is because there are a lot of moving parts in a mechanical hard drive, from the rotating disks to the arm with a magnetic head to actually read the data. As a result, any dust accumulation or shock can physically jam its mechanisms.
SSDs are a type of flash storage, made up of purely electronic memory cells. This makes them virtually immune to physical interference, giving them an edge in unfriendly operating conditions.
A Case For HDD: Write Endurance
One parameter in which a hard disk drive outperforms SSDs is the write endurance. Simply put, it is the number of write cycles the device can undergo in its lifetime. The higher this number is, the more data can be rewritten onto the storage medium.
Solid State Drives, as a rule, have a low write endurance. So while any data on an SSD can be accessed repeatedly at very high speeds, there is only a limited number of times new data can be rewritten to each memory cell.
And that’s where traditional HDDs shine. Their magnetic disks can be overwritten with new data a surprisingly large number of times, making them incredibly flexible for applications requiring constant rewriting.
This primarily includes data logging applications, such as surveillance systems. Since new video footage is constantly being stored over older records, these computers require hard disks with good write endurance. And HDDs happen to fit the bill.
The Price Factor?
Theoretically, traditional disk drives also happen to be cheaper than an SSD. In practice, however, this rarely translates into a preference for HDDs, since the other advantages of a Solid State Drive greatly outweigh the increased expense.
And with the price gap between HDDs and SSDs narrowing with every passing year, this factor is going to play an even smaller role than ever. Even if you do end up saving some costs upfront by going with traditional hard drives, the revenue lost due to their slower performance and more frequent errors are going to set you back by more in the long run.
Unless your application requires frequent rewriting of data, there is no reason not to go with an SSD every time. Solid State Drives are faster, more energy-efficient, and more robust – all factors that are beneficial to an enterprise user.
Once the expense or the small storage size could have been considered a reason to choose a traditional hard drive, but those issues have long since been resolved, with new SSD models boasting terabytes of storage at a rate much closer to the norm.
Whether you are building a server rack, outfitting an industrial unit, or getting an embedded PC for a smart kiosk, an SSD is a much better choice due to its improved performance and responsiveness.


The new ride’s concept from Renault is quite adorable – if not cute. The combination of futuristic design and adorable structure seems to be the main attractive point of this ride. It’s called as the Kwid, incorporating the fresh colors of Kiwi – so it is mainly covered in yellow lime and green. The attractive design and fresh colors are meant to attract younger target. Some of the 2014 Renault Kwid concept photos have been available on the net. You should look into the images to decide whether it is adorable enough or not.
The Renault Kwid concept specs include protective guards, oversized wheels, short overhangs, chunky wings, and buggy look in complete look. It also comes in two tone materials for the four seats. There will be separated air conditioner and also control for the rear part, so the passengers on the back side also have the freedom to control what they can enjoy within the ride. There is also additional dashboard that can be integrated with the tablet so you can control and navigate the Flying Companion, which can take off from the back side of the Kwid, and can fly up through automatic or manual operation.
It is unclear about Renault Kwid concept release date, but it should be introduced during 2014 India motor Show. The ride will be running on petrol turbocharged engine with 1.2 liter capacity along with EDC dual clutch transmissions.

We can't get enough of Jennifer Coolidge at the moment. Her iconic character in The White Lotus, her heartwarming and hilarious Golden Globes speech, her telling an interviewer that her dream role would be 'to play a dolphin', *that* TikTok debut featuring J-Lo... The list goes on.
Put simply, she's a certified legend – and every new anecdote that emerges about the 61-year-old actor serves only to emphasise that her stellar reputation is warranted. The latest fabulous tale comes courtesy of Buffy icon and protagonist of upcoming series Wolf Pack Sarah Michelle Gellar, who appeared on US chat show The View last night. After gushing about how much of a fan she was of Mike White's comedy drama The White Lotus – 'I don't even know what to do on Sunday nights now,' she told presenters – Gellar revealed that she had enjoyed a spontaneous, and seriously epic-sounding night out with Jennifer Coolidge a few years ago.
Gellar was asked about the story behind the throwback selfie she posted on Instagram in December of herself and Coolidge looking... a little worse for wear... The photo was captioned, '#flashbackfriday When you are missing having a new #whitelotus episode to look forward to, but you will always have the memory of the time you went dancing all night with the legend that is @theofficialjencoolidge (complete with smeared and sweaty makeup).'
Speaking on the chat show, Gellar recalled meeting Coolidge at a Christian Siriano fashion show some years ago, and explained that while Coolidge left after the event, she went to dinner with the designer before heading to a club.
There, the designer suggested they call Coolidge to invite her to join them. 'And I'm like, it's one in the morning!,' she recalls. 'He's like, well, let's just try!'
Gellar went on to explain: 'She was in her hotel room, asleep. And she was like, "OK, I’ll come!" You can’t get me out past 9 if I’m home ― forget it. [But] she got dressed, came to the club, danced all night... She's awesome.'

Tooth enamel is the hardest substance in the human body — it’s even harder than bone!
Even though enamel is so tough, however, there are a number of factors that can cause it to erode, making you vulnerable to dental problems. If your tooth enamel has eroded, is there anything you can do to restore it? How can you prevent further enamel loss?
Causes of Enamel Erosion
Quite a few things can cause your tooth enamel to erode. These include sugary or acidic foods, teeth grinding due to stress, or having a dry mouth. Genetic considerations and acid reflux can also come into play. Even when the cause of enamel erosion is beyond your control, however, there are still steps you can take to protect your teeth.
Strengthen and Protect the Enamel You Have
It is important to understand that once enamel is gone, it can’t be brought back. However, it is possible to strengthen and even repair remaining enamel. Working to get your enamel back in good shape can make your teeth less sensitive and prevent major dental procedures down the road.
You can strengthen your enamel via a process called “remineralization,” which involves applying calcium and fluoride to your teeth to repair weak spots. You should also do the following:
- Have a good dental care routine. Use products designed specifically to strengthen enamel. You can ask your dentist for recommendations on which toothpaste and mouthwash are best.
- Eat a healthy diet that is rich in minerals. Foods such as dairy products, bone broth, and vegetables benefit your enamel.
- If the enamel erosion is severe, your dentist might recommend installing a crown. This will protect your tooth, restore its structure, and prevent further damage. Tooth-bonding is another common option.
Prevent Enamel Erosion
The best way to care for your tooth enamel is to adopt healthy practices that will prevent damage :
- Cut back on sugary and acidic drinks. This can include things like soda — yes, even diet soda — coffee, and fruit juice. When you do drink these beverages, try to use a straw so the liquid goes straight to the back of your mouth and bypasses your teeth.
- Chew sugar-free gum. Chewing gum encourages saliva production, and the saliva contains important minerals for your teeth. Try to find a gum that has xylitol in it.
- Drink more water. This can help you deal with a dry mouth and cut back on the acidity in your mouth after you eat meals and snacks.
- Get your teeth cleaned regularly . Dental professionals can deep-clean your mouth, getting rid of any trapped substances that might be damaging your teeth. You should get your teeth cleaned at least once a year.
- Be careful when you brush your teeth. Brushing too hard can damage the enamel.
Enamel is your teeth’s first line of defense against damage, so it is important that you do all you can to keep it in good shape. Maintain a good oral hygiene routine and see your dentist regularly so that your smile can stay as stunning as possible.

We caught up with Brazilian developer Ana Ribeiro in full cosplay gear at PAX East. Ribeiro came up with the concept for Pixel Ripped a few years back and now finally the long development is nearing its goal as Pixel Ripped 1989 will hit Oculus Rift, HTC Vive and PSVR on May 22.
"It feels like Olympics, four years, the journey has been fun," Ribeiro said when asked about the game's development from student project to full game release on Oculus, Vive, and PSVR. "I have been enjoying the process a lot. It has been long, but it has been an adventure. I've had a lot of ups and downs during the trip."
The game itself sees the player travel back to 1989 where you're tasked with playing a game on your GameBoy-esque device while avoiding the attention of the teacher in the classroom. A bit of a juggling act, but the game also inserts itself in the surroundings.
"It's game about being a gamer. And fighting to play a game. It's like the whole world is conspiring against you to play video games. That's the big inspiration I got. It was always tough to play video games when I was a kid. Got my parents would turn off the electricity in the house and you couldn't save the game and I remember we were playing Ninja Gaiden. It was so hard, and we were like finishing the game and then my father just want us to come to lunch and he turned off the light, things like that."
Ribeiro isn't satisfied with just 1989 though, she has plenty more planned for future Pixel Ripped titles, beyond this first one.
"There are actually four other episodes planned. So this is 1989, but we are planning to release Pixel Ripped 1978, to be Atari graphics and it's going to be in the 70s, and then we're going to be releasing 1983 which would be like arcade machines, 1995 would be the fight between Nintendo and Sega, 1999 would be the first 3D games, like the old school 3D Nintendo 64, so there are plenty of games coming."
You can also check out the launch trailer for Pixel Ripped 1989 below.

Zhang Han felt a little dizzy.
He almost burst into laughter before glancing at Zi Yan.
Zi Yan was also smiling.
It must be because she was afraid that Mengmeng would cry if she didnt see her PaPa when she woke up.
Mengmeng was a fast learner and echoed Zi Yans words.
Zhang Han was amused.
He walked toward her quickly, squatted and looking serious, said, “Im sorry…”
Mengmeng was a little confused and looked at Zi Yan, then she remembered what she was supposed to say.
She turned to Zhang Han and asked, “Humph, why”
“I shouldnt have gone out to play when Mengmeng was sleeping.”
“I dont know.”
“You know it.”
“What should I know”
“What were you doing just now”
“Oh, its all your grandfathers fault.
He insisted on talking to your father.
When we see him, we have to punish him, right”
“Yes.” Mengmeng believed him immediately and answered seriously, “Next time I see grandpa, I will tell him not to take my PaPa out, or I wont like him.”
“Yes, or you wont talk to him.” Zhang Han smiled and said, “Lets go, my little princess.”
“Lets go.” Mengmeng jumped into Zhang Hans arms happily.
Zi Yan could not help laughing.
At the same time, she felt that ever since Zhang Han met his parents and was reunited with his family, he seemed to be more… cheerful.
He was happy and so was Zi Yan.
The family of three played on the lawn.
Zhang Guangyou and Rong Jiali were busy with something.
Zhang Li and Zhou Fei went to the outer ring to watch the battle, which also gave the family of three some free time.
Oh, no, there were still three guys around, including Dahei, Little Hei and Tiny Tot.
In nearly a year, both Dahei and Little Hei had entered the Divine Realm.
If such a speed was revealed, it would frighten many people in the martial arts world.
However, in the small world, they were not that surprised and there were also many people who had obtained great opportunities.
As long as they had enough resources, it would not be difficult for them to quickly cultivate into a martial artist at the Divine Realm.
However, ordinary people would not be so willing to give others so many natural precious materials, unlike Zhang Han.
They cherished their lives and preferred to keep the natural precious materials for themselves in case they might need them in the future.
The three of them enjoyed themselves.
The Demons Curse began to reveal its ferocious fangs as it scattered in various directions.
Nestled within a wide range of mountains in the northwest, Seven Harmony World was the place with the best scenery and spiritual Qi in the whole Seven Harmony World, which belonged to the Luo Fu Sword sect.
On a peak, Leader Mu and his wife were in a yard.
It was like an open-air hot spring and lotuses could be seen everywhere in the pond.
There was a faint mist floating above the water, which was the rich spiritual Qi.
Wearing a bathrobe, Mu Xue was lying under the water and cultivating with her eyes closed.
After several days of preparation, her Qi and whole being had been adjusted to the best condition and she was ready to break through to the Divine Realm.
Leader Mu was also very generous.
He used hundreds of middle-level crystal stones and dozens of divine objects.
They were all fifth-stage spirit treasures, but the gap between them was also very big.
Most of the treasures in the worldlet sects were at the fifth stage and Zhang Han had not seen any treasures at the sixth stage, like the thunder yang tree.
As time passed, Mu Xues mother looked a little nervous.
“The fluctuation has lasted for six hours.
Why are there no results yet”
“Dont worry.” Leader Mu shook his head slightly and said, “She is saving up her strength and waiting for the final moment to break through.
She will most likely reach the God Realm Late-stage.
Breaking through to the Divine Realm is a big leap.
After absorbing some divine object or pure energy, she will be able to reach the peak stage of the Divine Realm in a few days.
After slowing down and stabilizing her cultivation base, she will not be far from breaking through to the Earth Realm stage.
Only when she reaches the Earth Realm stage will she be able to stop.
What she will consume is the foundation that she has accumulated for a long time at Grand Master Peak.”
“I know, but… Can Xue bear it Im just worried if she will be injured.
Even if she breaks through to the God Realm Late-stage, she still needs an overall balance.” Mu Xues mother sighed.
“She can do it.
It is starting!”
Leader Mus eyes narrowed.
The spiritual Qi formed waves and converged into Mu Xues body.
Her face emitted a green glow.
As time went by, the spiritual Qi became more and more intense and the Qi that surrounded Mu Xue finally broke through to the Divine Realm.
Early-Stage, Middle-Stage… When Mu Xues rising Qi was about to be stabilized, a trace of a struggle flashed across her face.
A massive amount of spiritual Qi constantly compressed into her body.
Gradually, she was about to break through to the God Realm Late-stage.
However, at this moment, something happened.
Mu Xues face darkened.
At the same time, a faint ethereal voice could be heard.
“At compound interest.”
“At compound interest.”
The voice seemed to form countless echoes, which made Mu Xues face turn more and more pale.
She seemed to see something terrible and she could not stop shaking.
Leader Mu clenched his teeth and spat out a word, “Curse.”
“Ah” Mu Xues mother was startled.
With a wave of Leader Mus right hand, a divine object for dispelling curses appeared.
It was a 10cm grass.
A soft light appeared, covering Mu Xues face.
But the black fog was very cunning and quickly escaped into Mu Xues eyes.
Mu Xues body trembled for ten seconds before she regained her composure.
She slowly opened her eyes and stood up.
There was a look of fear and confusion in her eyes.
What was conspicuous was the mark “owe” that appeared on her forehead.
“Mom and Dad, I broke through.”
Mu Xue felt the Qi circulating in her body and then she came about.
She was confused, “When I just broke through, I felt like I had a nightmare.”
“This…” Mu Xues mother hesitated and did not know whether to say it or not.
Anyway, Mu Xue would see that mark when she looked in the mirror.
“Why are you not even trying to erase that mark”
She touched Leader Mus arm.
Leader Mu raised his hand and took out a spiritual herb, trying to work with the array to remove the mark on Mu Xues forehead.
However, all his efforts were in vain, which made Leader Mus face turn blue gradually.
Mu Xue also noticed that something was amiss and turned quickly to look at the pool, looking at her reflection in the water.
An angry scream rang out.
“Ah, ah, Zhang Hanyang!”
“Zhang Hanyang Ill go and kill him!” Leader Mu was about to leave as his face darkened.
But before he got out of the yard, Mu Xue turned her head.
“Dont go! I will go by myself.
When I have stabilized, I will press him to the ground and beat him severely with my own hands.”
She was so angry that she wanted to avenge herself, so Leader Mu stopped.
On the other side, Ye Longyuan did not make too much noise.
After breaking through, he was frightened and angry.
He was alone and did not say much.
Instead, he liked to plan ahead.
For example, he would find a chance to kill Zhang Hanyang after his cultivation had stabilized.
So did Shi Fenghou.
Behind him stood the seventh Elder of Wind Snow School.
“You said you had been cursed by Zhang Hanyang Is the mark revealed for one day a month”
“Yes, besides me, there are Ye Longyuan and Mu Xue.
I will kill Zhang Hanyang before they do.”
“Kill him Hehe.” The seventh Elder seemed to be sniggering at himself and said, “The treasure house of our sect has suffered heavy losses.
This time, you have only a few holy objects for breakthrough.
Fortunately, you are highly talented and have a good bloodline, which helped you to break through to the God Realm Late-stage.
Do you know why there are fewer resources Its because of Zhang Hanyang.” The seventh Elder wanted to kill Zhang Hanyang, “For our sect, the sub-sects in the other four worldlets were all destroyed and the culprit is Zhang Hanyang! He is just at Grand Master Peak.
Even if he breaks through the Divine Realm, I can beat him to death with one slap.
He even knows how to break the Heaven-earth Formation.
He will only create endless problems.
If you want to kill him, its good.
Everyone in the Wind Snow School wants to kill him.
Its up to you whether you can do it.
Go and find other people to practice with and fight for the honor of Wind Snow School.
As for Zhang Hanyang, well wait for the opportunity.”
Hearing this whole speech, Shi Fenghous pupils shrank until they resembled needle points.
Zhang Hanyang had done so many things during his period of seclusion.
It was an exaggeration to say that all the four sub-sects were completely eliminated.
All the people, including the Grand Elder of Wind Snow School, thought that it was Zhang Hanyang who broke the Heaven-earth Formation.
However the one who assassinated the ten protectors and destroyed the sub-sects could not be him.
He had the strength at Grand Master Peak, which was not fake.
Even if he broke through, his combat effectiveness would not be very good.
But they did not know that, sometimes, the most incredible doubts might be true.
These people went out to make trouble as soon as they broke through.
The frequent appearances of the Divine Realm martial artists gave the martial arts world an illusion.
It was as if the golden age of martial arts was coming!

Skin problems and gut issues have a long history of connection. The gut and the skin have much in common, which contributes to the gut-skin axis. Both the gut and the skin play key roles as defenders against pathogens invading from the outside environment. When you increase your fiber intake and have healthy poops your skin will start to become clearer. For clearer skin you HAVE TO INCREASE WATER INTAKE, INCREASE FIBER INTAKE, AND POOP AT LEAST ONCE PER DAY.
Every single day the average woman applies 168 unique chemicals directly to her body through the application of creams, lotions, and makeup. While men, on average, apply 85 individual chemicals to their bodies daily. This is a staggering number of chemicals most of us don’t give a second thought.
If you’ve struggled with acne, rosacea, eczema, psoriasis or any other skin condition, you know firsthand how frustrating, uncomfortable, and embarrassing they can be. Skin conditions are beyond irritating – they can make you feel depressed, socially anxious, and seriously affect your confidence and self esteem.
You deserve to look and feel great! The good news is that the key to improving your skin and overall health begins in the same place – your gut.
You’ve likely heard about your gut microbiome by now, but if not, you’re in for a real surprise. Why? Because the 100 trillion microorganisms living in your gut are turning out to be the most important medical discovery of our time.
Your gut microbiome communicates with your skin via the gut-skin axis, which directly influences your appearance.
How exactly do these microbes influence your skin?
Well, for starters, scientists have found that the line of communication between your immune system, skin, and brain is mediated through your microbes, ultimately influencing:
- Inflammation – The underlying cause of most disease.
- Oxidative stress – A major cause of inflammation.
- Tissue lipid levels – A factor important for a healthy metabolism.
- Glycemic control – Your ability to balance blood sugar.
- Neuropeptide levels – A factor linked to your mood, pain tolerance, and body’s homeostasis (balance).
- Pathogenic bacteria – Bad bacteria that makes you sick or cause conditions.
- Mood regulating neurotransmitters – For example, about 90% of your serotonin (your happy neurotransmitter) is made by your gut microbiome.
The last connection on this list is the reason why skin conditions are strongly associated with depression and anxiety. Not only are skin conditions bringing you down because of their embarrassing outward appearance, they are actually affecting how you feel from within – via your gut microbiome.
Because beauty literally begins from the inside out.
Blessure Serum™ is a life science company leading the way in all natural skincare. Anti aging Dermatologist Recommended skincare serum that alleviates acne, razor bumps, razor burn, scalp itch, bruises, eczema, skin lesions, herpes sores, psoriasis and sunburn.
When you stop and think about it, this actually makes a lot of sense – your gut and skin have a lot in common:
- They both protect you from the outside world.
- They each have microbiomes, which communicate directly with each other.
- They are both packed with mast cells (a type of white blood cell), which are the first responders of your immune system.
- They originate from the same cells during early development.
Your skin is the lining that interacts with the world around you, while your gastrointestinal tract deals with everything you eat, breathe, and swallow. The foods you eat are metabolized and by-products from food breakdown are directly available to your skin. This is why what you eat has so much influence over your skin’s appearance.
Think of your skin as a window into the health of your gut.
The Reason Your Skin Creams & Acne Probiotics Don’t Work
If you’ve struggled with a skin condition, chances are you’ve gone through a lot of different creams, lotions, and other topical remedies. If you’ve heard about the link between a healthy gut and healthy skin, you may have even tried acne probiotics. But you’ve probably found that even if these creams and acne probiotics offer you some relief, it is usually temporary.
It’s no wonder skin creams prescribed by your doctor don’t work. They are trying to tackle the problem from the outside in, when some skin conditions need to be treated from the inside out, starting at the gut level.
And the reason acne probiotics don’t work? They only contain a handful of microbial strains. Your gut microbiome is made up of over 8,000 strains of bacteria – not to mention all the other important microbes. So introducing just a few strains with a probiotic may not make much of an impact.
If you want to give your skin a fighting chance, it’s time you checked your gut.
11 Skin Conditions That Begin in the Gut
As we deepen our understanding of the gut microbiome it has become more clear that many skin conditions do not originate to the level of the skin, but stem from the gut. Here are 11 skin conditions that actually begin in the gut:
- Acne vulgaris
- Cystic acne
- Seborrhoeic dermatitis
- Dermatitis herpetiformis
- Oral mucosal lesions (mouth sores)
If you’ve been struggling with any of these, you may want to check your gut.
Unraveling The Gut-Skin Axis
When we begin to dig deeper into the science around the gut-skin axis, it becomes quite clear that healthy skin starts with a healthy gut.
The good news is that this connection opens up a world of possibilities for skin therapies. Some medications originally created to treat skin conditions have been found useful in treating gut issues. For example, a psoriasis medication has been found to be effective in those with severe Crohn’s disease – a condition of the gut. This is way it is important to poop so your system will be clean.
What Should Your Poop Look Like?
The chart lists seven different shapes and consistencies of bowel movements:
Type 1: Separate hard lumps, like nuts (hard to pass)
Type 2: Sausage-shaped but lumpy
Type 3: Like a sausage but with cracks on the surface
Type 4 Like a sausage or snake, smooth and soft
Type 5: Soft blobs with clear-cut edges
Type 6: Fluffy pieces with ragged edges, a mushy stool
Type 7: Watery, no solid pieces
Bowel movements that resemble types 3, 4, and 5 do not correlate with any typical bowel issues. Types 1 and 2 could be indicative of constipation; types 6 and 7 point to diarrhea.
Your poop should have a brown color and have a soft-to-firm consistency. Healthy poop is typically passed in a few smaller pieces or as one, longer piece.
What Should Your Poop Smell Like?
Your poop isn’t supposed to smell pleasant, which makes it difficult to use as a health indicator; however if patients are concerned about the smell, they are asked if the scent is “foul.”
Poop should smell like poop but if it smells worse than usual, you shouldn’t ignore it.” Some particularly smelly poop smells so bad because of high levels of fat.
Foul-smelling bowel movements could also be indicative of an infection such as C diff colitis or a small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIDO). C diff colitis is an inflammation of the colon that is caused by bacteria called Clostirium difficile, hence C diff. It can result in diarrhea and abdominal pain. SIDO, which can also cause abdominal pain and diarrhea, occurs when bacteria from other parts of the body make their way into your small intestine.
Neither of these infections should ever be self-diagnosed; consult a physician if you are experiencing symptoms. Another distinct smell from your bowel movements can be the result of blood in your stool, which appears as a black and tarry or maroon red color. This is likely the result of absorbing fat or problems with your pancreas.
Health issues such as irritable bowel syndrome typically do not coincide with a foul or alarming smell.
What Are Other Signs of a Pooping Issue?
If you have constipation, painful bowel movement, smelly poop, or blood, you have a pooping problem.
One of the most concerning signs that there may be an issue is blood in the stool, which could be caused by hemorrhoids. Just a drop or two or blood could result in the entire toilet bowl turning red.
What once was considered by doctors to be minor bleeding, blood in your toilet is now cause to be evaluated by your doctor, especially with the rise in colon cancer.
If you notice your stool is black, that is also a concern that bleeding is occurring somewhere. Black stool could be caused be an iron vitamin or if you are using Pepto-Bismol.
Stool that is fatty, oily, or greasy and leaves streaks of oil is a sign fat malabsorption. This can be caused by issues with the small intense absorbing fat, or the pancreas not working to make enzymes that digest fat. This can all lead to malnutrition.
Keep your Gut Healthy: the 5 R’s
Whether you have a skin disorder like rosacea or eczema or simply want to prevent skin cancer and maintain a youthful appearance, it is beneficial to look to your gut. Dysbiosis or other gut problems might be the cause of the issue–or it might simply exacerbate it.
In functional medicine, we have a standard gut protocol known as the 4 Rs: remove, replace, reinoculate, and repair. It sometimes also includes a fifth R: rebalance. Let’s look at each one a little closer.
As the word implies, remove means to take away anything that might be contributing to an unhealthy gut. This might include stress, pathogenic microbes, environmental toxins, or food allergens. One of the most common treatments for this stage of the 4 Rs is the elimination diet. This diet removes all of the most common foods that trigger inflammation and gut reactions for a period of time and then reintroduces them to determine what might be the cause of the issue. For some people, the remove stage might also include protocols to eradicate any pathogenic species residing in the colon or the small intestine contributing to dysbiosis or SIBO respectively.
Proper digestion and subsequent absorption require digestive enzymes, hydrochloric acid, and bile acids. In the replace step, these are supplemented, as needed, depending on the situation.
Reinoculate is the step when good bacteria are reintroduced into the gut, typically through taking a strong probiotic. It is beneficial to also consume a diet high in fiber, and you might choose to supplement with prebiotics, which are non-digestible fibers known to fuel the commensal bacteria in the gut and further mitigate the building of a healthy microbiome.
In the repair stage, vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients are introduced to assist in repairing any damage to the gut, including any inflammation or leaky gut. This typically includes zinc, antioxidants, fish oil, and glutamine, an amino acid that is the gut lining’s major fuel source.
The final stage, rebalance, goes beyond just diet; it looks at your overall lifestyle to determine if there are negative aspects affecting the gut, such as lack of sleep or excessive stress. Modifications are made to create a lifestyle pattern supportive of a healthy gut.
As discussed above, healing any inflammation or disorders of the gut can have a significant impact on the health of the skin. Removing triggers like allergenic food can also mitigate skin reactions. A healthy microbiome also provides metabolites and other benefits to alleviate skin problems. Therefore, following the 5 Rs is a great first step to balancing the gut-skin axis.
1. Get comprehensive labs.
Stool Test: The first step to finding out about your gut-skin axis and your microbiome health is running a comprehensive stool test. I recommend a two- or three-day collection to look at your good bacteria levels and rule out any bacterial, yeast or parasitic infections.
Immunological Blood Test: This blood test will be able to assess if there’s been a breach of your gut’s defense system, allowing undigested food particles and bacteria to make their away in the blood, causing an inflammatory response throughout the body. This condition is commonly referred to as a “leaky gut.”
2. Address any underlying gut issues.
SIBO: Small intestinal bacterial overgrowth happens when bacteria from the colon grows into the small intestines where it doesn’t belong.
Dysbiosis: Whereas SIBO is an overgrowth of normal bacteria, dysbiosis happens when there’s an imbalance of good to bad bacteria. An increase of harmful bacterial imbalances have been shown to be a factor in skin problems.
Hypochlorhydria: A decrease in stomach acid or hypochlorhydria has been shown to be higher in people suffering with skin problems such as acne.
Parasite or yeast infections: Chronic low-grade infections like these can be a source of continual inflammation of the gut-skin axis.
Leaky gut syndrome: All of the previous gut problems can lead to an increased permeability of your gut lining.
I use condition-specific natural medicine protocols to help the gut and skin heal from these underlying problems.
3. Avoid foods that will damage your gut-skin axis.
What will damage your gut will damage your skin, so it’s wise to avoid certain foods for a glowing, healthy complexion.
4. Use food medicine to heal your gut-skin axis.
Here are some of the foods that I use to repair the gut-skin connection:
Bone broth: Your grandma may have made this ancient healing food. Its beneficial collagen makes it great for healing the skin and gut.
Fermented vegetables: Sauerkraut and kimchee are great ways to provide your microbiome with beneficial probiotics.
Swedish bitters: I’ve found this herbal tonic to be very effective in healing chronic infections and balancing low stomach acid production.
Kefir: Fermented dairy drinks like kefir, rich in the beneficial probiotic Lactobacillus acidophilus, have been shown to improve complexion over a period of 3 months.
Fermented cod liver oil: Another ancient healing food, this nutrient-dense oil is a great source of skin-healing vitamins A, D and K2. It’s also a balanced and stable source omega fats.
Coconut oil: Fats are essential to heal the gut-skin axis. This oil also has natural antimicrobial benefits. Coconut oil is also great to use on your skin!
Liver: One of nature’s multivitamins, per ounce, liver is one of the most bioavailable nutrient-dense foods on the planet. If you eat meat, this is a great, whole food source for skin nutrients like zinc and pantothenic acid or vitamin B5.
Leaky Gut and Cystic Acne
Research has found that acne isn’t so much a condition of the skin as it is a condition of the gut. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) endotoxins are part of harmful Gram-negative bacteria that have been shown to wreak havoc on the gut and skin.
Studies have found when you have high levels of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) endotoxins in your body, they can interfere with wound healing and make your scars worse. LPS is also associated with acne vulgaris and makes it more likely you’ll have a strong reaction to E. coli lipopolysaccharide endotoxin (E. coli LPS). Having a strong reactivity to E. coli LPS means you’re more likely to have fibrin microclots, which cause small, painful tissue scarring.
LPS and E. coli sure do cause a lot of trouble, don’t they? But it gets worse.
High levels of LPS and E. coli LPS contribute to leaky gut, which allows these pesky bacteria to enter the bloodstream, creating more problems. People with leaky gut are more likely to have acne, and when E. coli LPS is involved, it may also cause depression. LPS also makes it more likely you’ll develop irritable bowel syndrome and anxiety.
Shew! All of that makes you want to stay away from LPS endotoxins doesn’t it? Same here.
The massive influence the gut has on the skin means it’s extremely important to keep your gut happy and healthy.
Eczema and Gut Health
We know, without a doubt, that eczema starts in the gut.
While doctors and dermatologists were looking for solutions at the skin’s surface, they missed the fact that eczema is caused by an overactive immune system. This overactive immune system is usually a consequence of gut microbiota dysbiosis or imbalance. In fact, a drop in microbiome diversity is known to cause eczema flare ups.
To relieve eczema symptoms, taking steps to reduce inflammation and boost microbial diversity through your diet is critical. An eczema fighting diet needs to be specific to your microbiome and body.
The Rosacea and SIBO Connection
Doctors are uncovering a strong association between people who have small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) and rosacea. Some doctors are even reporting that when they treat their patients for SIBO, the rosacea they’ve had for years suddenly clears up.
That is seriously great news for rosacea sufferers!
Unfortunately, SIBO was only discovered in 2004 and many people suffered from rosacea with no knowledge that the source of their problem could be their gut. Many people still do not know about this important connection and haven’t had a chance to see if the cause of their rosacea is actually SIBO.
Celiac Disease and Skin Conditions
Celiac disease and skin conditions go hand in hand. People with celiac disease are more likely to have:
- Dermatitis herpetiformis
- Oral mucosal lesions
Because people with celiac disease are dealing with a condition of the gut, they have the advantage of being directed to look for gut-related solutions. This means they often inadvertently clear up their skin conditions when they go gluten free or take other steps to reduce the effects of their celiac disease. As for other skin conditions, realizing the gut is the source of the problem often takes much longer – if it happens at all.
Finding out the underlying factors to your skin condition and addressing them with a customized and comprehensive functional program can be the natural solution you have been searching for. Bottom line it’s important to eat fiber and to have healthy poops for healthy skin.

The 1900-1904 information on Kemp lantern is a bit muddied as they reused older illustrations. However, through my research and deduction, I’m pretty sure this lantern was made in 1903-04. In 1903 Kemp added the brass plates to the chimney of their lanterns. On one side it says “A Perfect Light in Any Wind GUARANTEED” and on the other it said ” Kemp Mfg. Co.” Sadly almost all the Kemp lanterns I have come across, are lacking that Kemp name badge, this one included. I suspect much like McClary Caboose Stoves at the time, people would pull those off and use them for decorations, as they’re quite ornate.
This lantern is absolutely gorgeous, and in near perfect condition. Kemp lanterns are some of my favourite and this one stands out as the nicest in my collection. The details in the chimney around the tubes, the skirt along the bottom are some of the finer details Kemp added to their lanterns. The Canadian lantern market was fierce so manufacturers had to really go above and beyond when designing lanterns.
Inside this lantern is one of my favourite globes, the ‘Bulldog”. This globe was for a hardware store or company I still haven’t found a name for yet. I know of one lantern made by Kemp with the bulldog name on it, so I figured this lantern is a good home for the globe.

Fiction is dying--the memoir is the thing. This seemed to be the conventional wisdom in 1997 among the big American publishing houses, where the previous year’s mood of desperation born of declining sales of serious fiction and growing returns of unsold books fed a frenzy of hype and aesthetic blindness. Kathryn Harrison’s confessional memoir The Kiss, her deliberately opaque account of her incestuous affair with her father, became the focus of the hysteria. For a while the controversy over this book--obscene or not? a subtle masterpiece or an empty bit of titillation?--dominated the talk about new books. Ultimately, the year was marked by the publication of some of the biggest books of the decade, which allowed serious readers and critics alike to focus their attention on questions of quality rather than on gossip.
Mason & Dixon, Thomas Pynchon’s long-awaited novel set in the pre-Civil War U.S., took centre stage for a time, though the massive 700-page volume, which included cameo appearances by Ben Franklin and George Washington and was peppered with Pynchon’s signature wit and song lyrics, received a mixed response from critics. The initial reception of another huge novel, Underworld, Don DeLillo’s 800-page-plus exploration of American life at the advent of the Atomic Age, was much more positive. Its resonant opening line--"He speaks in your voice, American, and there’s a shine in his eye that’s halfway hopeful. . . ."--and its masterly opening set-piece (the final game of the 1951 National League play-offs, with Frank Sinatra, Jackie Gleason, and J. Edgar Hoover, among others, in the crowd) immediately swept most readers into the action.
Pynchon and DeLillo were not the only established novelists to produce major new works. Philip Roth’s American Pastoral, a look back at the 1960s, elicited a favourable critical response. Novelist and naturalist Peter Matthiessen focused once again on pre-World War I Florida in Lost Man’s River, the second volume in a trilogy with the enigmatic quasi-historical E.J. Watson at the centre of things. John Updike anticipated the next century in his science-fiction knockoff Toward the End of Time. Kurt Vonnegut proclaimed Timequake his "last" novel even as it began to appear on best-seller lists around the country. The only one of this well-recognized group to strike out was Norman Mailer, with his oddly experimental revision of the Jesus story, The Gospel According to the Son.
Among other seasoned novelists, San Francisco-based Herbert Gold published his urbane comedy about an older man in the throes of romance, She Took My Arm as if She Loved Me, and Cynthia Ozick revived an old character in new dress in The Puttermesser Papers. Joyce Carol Oates produced Man Crazy, a novel episodic in design and, like her 1996 work We Were the Mulvaneys, set in upstate New York. Frederick Busch used an upstate New York winter as the backdrop for Girls, his best novel in years. Ward Just returned to Washington, D.C., for the scene of Echo House, one of his most successful works of fiction.
Nicholas Delbanco employed a variation on the legend of the doomed 12th-century lovers Héloïse and Abelard for the motif of his wonderfully engaging contemporary love story Old Scores. Edmund White’s The Farewell Symphony and Allan Gurganus’s Plays Well with Others were two novels that dealt with the impact of the AIDS epidemic, but neither to very good effect. Terminal Velocity, Blanche McCrary Boyd’s novel set in the 1970s in a California lesbian commune, was much more successful in its treatment of somewhat similar material. The highly regarded Denis Johnson produced what he called "a California Gothic" titled--aptly, according to most reviewers--Already Dead. It had the distinction of being the worst book of the year by a good writer, which, given Mailer’s flop, was saying a great deal.
Heading straight to the top of the best-seller lists and staying there was Cold Mountain, a debut novel by North Carolina writer Charles Frazier. The story of a wounded Confederate veteran’s valiant attempts to put war behind him and return to his mountain home, the book was a wonderful blend of forceful narrative, striking imagery, and engaging characters. The debut of playwright Joseph Skibell as a novelist in A Blessing on the Moon, a story of the Holocaust, also won deserved attention. Kathleen Alcalá signed in with Spirits of the Ordinary, a charming historical fiction set on the northern border of Mexico in the late 1800s. Jay Parini turned to history again in Benjamin’s Crossing, a novel based on the last days of the German-Jewish literary critic Walter Benjamin.
Sticking with a contemporary setting with good effect was novelist Kem Nunn in The Dogs of Winter, a beautifully composed thriller with a cast of surfers and other California renegades. Craig Nova used a Southern California setting with fine results in The Universal Donor. Cristina García, author of the acclaimed Dreaming in Cuban (1992), transported readers to Cuba and Miami, Fla., in The Agüero Sisters, a novel blessed with wonderful prose rhythms and poignant scenes from Caribbean family life. Darcey Steinke’s third novel, Jesus Saves, the story of a Virginia minister’s daughter and the perils of suburban life, showed off the author’s powerful dark lyric style.
It was also a good year for novellas and short fiction. Saul Bellow produced a gem of a work in his 100-page story The Actual. Two notable novella collections appeared: David Leavitt’s Arkansas and Francine Prose’s Guided Tours of Hell. Whether they were considered novellas or simply three long stories, the work in former Pulitzer Prize and PEN/Faulkner winner Richard Ford’s Women with Men brought him more well-deserved national attention. Bear and His Daughter collected all of the gifted novelist Robert Stone’s brilliant short fiction from the past several decades. Some important fiction reprints also appeared during the year, namely, The Complete Stories of Bernard Malamud and Larry Woiwode’s impressive 1975 novel Beyond the Bedroom Wall.
American poets produced less controversy than their prose counterparts but nonetheless issued some excellent volumes of verse. Pulitizer Prize winner Mary Oliver came out with West Wind--"If there is life after the earth-life, will you come with me?/ Even then? Since we’re bound to be something, why not/ together? Imagine Two little stones, two fleas under the/wing of a gull, flying along through the fog. . . ." In Eating Bread and Honey Pattiann Rogers also turned, with great effect, to the natural world.
Award-winning poet Frank Bidart--recipient of the 1997 O.B. Hardison Jr. Poetry Prize--published Desire. Jane Hirshfield signed in with The Lives of the Heart ("There is more and more I tell no one/ Strangers nor loves. . . ."), Stanley Plumly with The Bride in the Trees, Charles Wright with Black Zodiac, and Hilda Raz with Divine Honors. Cynthia MacDonald (I Can’t Remember), A.R. Ammons (Glare), and Jorie Graham (Errancy) also brought out new volumes during the year. In Ceremonies of the Damned, Adrian C. Louis produced lyrics on Indian reservation life, and Elizabeth Alexander played on black family motifs in Body of Life. With the publication of the collection When People Could Fly, the prose poem found a marvelous godfather in Morton Marcus ("There was a time when stones flowered. I need to believe that. In forests and fields, layers of black rock cracked open after rain, and slick pink petals swarmed into wet sunlight. . . .").
As to the year’s nonfiction prose, certainly some of the memoirs offered the most interesting passages, though Harrison’s The Kiss was not among the books memorable for their achievement rather than their content. Burning the Days, by novelist and screenwriter James Salter, was in this select group, however. "There are certain houses near the river in secluded towns, their wooden fences weathered brown. Near the door in sunlight, stiff-legged, a white cat pulls itself up in an arc. Clothes on a half-hidden line drift in the light. It is here I imagine the wives, their children long grown, at peace with life and now drawn close to the essence of it, the soft rain flattening the water, trees thick with foliage bending to the wind, flowers beneath the kitchen window, quiet days. Men are important no longer, nor can they know such tranquillity, here in perfect exile, if it can be had that way, amid nature, in the world that was bequeathed to us. . . ."--this was Salter in what was perhaps the single most impressive book of prose published all year in any genre.
Memoirs, good and bad, abounded in 1997. In North Country, Howard Frank Mosher plumbed the difficulties of approaching middle-age as a "mid-list" novelist. Albert French turned to the Vietnam War for his subject matter in Patches of Fire. The difficulties of kinship and siblings were featured in Jay Neugeboren’s Imagining Robert: My Brother, Madness, and Survival. Another work focusing on family relationships was My Brother, Jamaica Kincaid’s loosely constructed story of her brother’s death from AIDS and her own response to his passing. Phyllis Rose conducted a gracious tour of a recent year in her life, with some excursions into her past, in the felicitously composed The Year of Reading Proust. Novelist Paul Auster’s autobiography Hand to Mouth was a decided failure in the eyes of just about every reviewer of merit. American Indian writer N. Scott Momaday collected his essays in The Man Made of Words. Journalist and civil libertarian Nat Hentoff cobbled together a memoir out of essays and newspaper columns under the title Speaking Freely.
Literary figures were the subjects of a large portion of the year’s best biographies--a category that included Michael Reynolds’s Hemingway: The 1930s, Walker Percy by Patrick Samway, S.J., Robert Penn Warren by Joseph Blotner, John Ciardi by Edward M. Cifelli, and Misfit: The Strange Life of Frederick Exley by Pulitizer Prize-winning critic Jonathan Yardley--though other creative individuals, painters, photographers, and composers came under scrutiny, notably in Duchamp by Calvin Tomkins, Steichen by Penelope Niven, and Johannes Brahms by Jan Swafford. Sylvia Jukes Morris chose a notable 20th-century woman as her subject in Rage for Fame: The Ascent of Clare Boothe Luce. The selected letters of the poet Hart Crane were edited by Langdon Hammer and Brom Weber under the title O My Land, My Friends. Literature professor Bonnie Costello edited The Selected Letters of Marianne Moore.
Important literary criticism came from elder statesman Alfred Kazin in God and the American Writer. Columbia University professor Andrew Delbanco received well-deserved attention for Required Reading, his essays on classic American writing. Poet John Hollander put together 23 essays on The Work of Poetry. Poet Jane Hirshfield demonstrated an interesting approach in Nine Gates: Entering the Mind of Poetry, and Henry Louis Gates’s Thirteen Ways of Looking at a Black Man demonstrated a critical mind working well in the realm of journalism. Arguably the best work of the year by a younger critic was James Bloom’s The Literary Bent: In Search of High Art in Contemporary American Writing.
Mark Edmundson’s Nightmare on Main Street stood as one of the year’s best books of cultural criticism. Former Harper’s Magazine executive editor Michael Pollan, a self-proclaimed "unhandy" man, narrated the story of the construction--by his own hands--of a small building in A Place of My Own. Janna Malamud Smith won some notice for her work on privacy in American culture, Private Matters. California novelist James Houston focused on American-Asian affinities and differences in his resonant travel memoir In the Ring of Fire.
In the realm of historical narrative and public affairs, John Lukacs assessed the extant Hitler biographies in The Hitler of History. Maury Klein wrote of the coming of the Civil War in Days of Defiance. David K. Shipler took up the subject of race relations in A Country of Strangers: Blacks and Whites in America. Novelist Susan Richards Shreve and her writer son, Porter, edited an interesting collection of essays by various hands under the title Outside the Law: Narratives on Justice in America, and veteran New York Times reporter Serge Schmemann painted an affecting portrait of his ancestral home in Russia in Echoes of a Native Land: Two Centuries of a Russian Village.
Among the year’s awards the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction went to Stephen Millhauser for his novel about a visionary entrepreneur, Martin Dressler. Short-story writer Gina Berriault received the PEN/Faulkner Award for Fiction for Women in Their Beds. Frazier’s Cold Mountain won the National Book Award for fiction; William Meredith’s Effort at Speech: New and Selected Poems took the award for poetry; and Joseph Ellis’s American Sphinx: The Character of Thomas Jefferson won for nonfiction. New Jersey-born Robert Pinsky was named the new poet laureate.

Here is the sixth installment to my "Un-Anonymous" series which aims to make my blog that little bit more personal- making The Girl in the Moonlight know a little bit more about my life. Today I thought I would make the blog a bit more "un-anonymous" by telling you how I introduced this "un-anonymous" attitude about my writing to my actual life... I shared some of my writing with my best friend.
More than a few months ago I told my best friend that I spend a lot of my time writing. I told him that it's my favourite hobby and my biggest dream ever is for it to become a career. But I also let him know that having writing at all in my life is a happy event all the same. Although he asked a few questions about it (I gave no answers), he was so respectful that he never made me regret it.
Since telling him I showed him one piece of writing and his response was so positive and sweet and seemingly genuine, I felt happy I showed him. Result. And then, in the last couple of weeks I've shown him a few more pieces. Although he is my best friend and so I'm aware he is bias and maybe "overly encouraging" (not that there is often a problem with that kind of attitude), every response he has had has stayed in my mind. His compliments haven't served to make me suddenly feel like I could become an author tomorrow, but they have been massively encouraging. To hear someone close to me tell me with sincerity that I can write (even if it is just their bias opinion- or just a bunch of lies to make me smile!) has made me feel very happy in my tummy.
So, I introduced one of my best friends to some writing that is on my blog (although he has still no idea what my blog is!) and I thought I would share this story and also introduce my blog to facts my best friend tells me about me- so as to make this a full circle.
♡ When I talk about my writing I apparently talk really fast and get over excited and blush.
♡ I have a "thinking" face.
♡ Anything I adore I am interested in completely and fully.
♡ I can become instantly hyper when I have one of my favourite albums on and I sing over excitedly.
♡ I need to work on having complete trust in myself with things I am good at. (Working on it!)
Trust & Smiles,
The Girl in the Moonlight.
♡ #1 ♡ #2 ♡ #3 ♡ #4 ♡ #5

What crime does the main character commit in 1984?
Winston Smith commits thought-crime in the novel 1984. This is a type of crime in which the offender's thoughts conflict with or defy the current laws or beliefs of the society. The thought-police identify this crime through the actions of the offender either through the sophisticated and widespread surveillance of the society or through another individual turning that person in.
Thought-crime is hard to define and equally hard to prevent. Winston's thoughts eventually manifest themselves in his desire for a forbidden physical relationship, his desire for personal reflection through his diary, and his desire to join an underground movement against Big Brother.
He is punished as all thought-criminals are: through a terrifying visit to the Ministry of Love, Room 101. While some thought criminals are completly vaporized both physically and historically, Winston is, after torture, brainwashed to reintegrate harmlessly into society.

Broncos have spent the most money in free agency so far, and it’s not close
Having the richest owners in the NFL has its benefits.
The Walton-Penner Family Ownership Group (WPFOG) is worth around $60 billion, and they’re not afraid to spend that cash.
No, the Broncos are not a toy for Robson Walton, his daughter Carrie Walton-Penner and his son-in-law Greg Penner. They’re serious about making this thing work and winning football games. We’ve told you about the team’s spending spree in free agency all week, and now some of the numbers are rolling in.
104.3 The Fan / 9NEWS Broncos insider Mike Klis took to Spotrac, a popular website that keeps track of finances for sports teams, and the numbers are eye-popping.
Greg Penner did his part:
Total spending 2023 free-agency (per Spotrac).
Broncos not only No. 1 but 33% more than No. 2:
Team …….. Total value
1. Broncos … $235.1M
2. Saints …… $177.0M
3. Falcons … $171.4M
4. Bears ……. $157.4M
5. Raiders … $134.9M#9sports
— Mike Klis (@mikeklis) March 17, 2023
Out of that $235.1 million in contracts the Broncos have given out this week, more than $130 million of it is guaranteed. A lot of the deals are structured with big bonuses up front to help circumvent the salary cap, so there’s certainly some creative accounting going on. But it’s working for Denver. According to Spotrac, the Broncos still have about $8.5 million in cap space.
Yes, they’ll have to pay the rookies they draft, but there’s still room for another deal or two. And if they can trade someone like Courtland Sutton, who’s been mentioned in rumors, that could free up even more cap space.
The fact the Broncos are spending more than the rest of the NFL is awesome. And it’s by a significant chunk, as Klis points out. This is what we all hoped for when the WPFOG bought the team, and money hasn’t been an issue thus far.
Next up? The play on the field must improve, and these free agents should help.

The Livermore City Council has officially declared a Stage 2 Water Shortage Emergency, meaning the city is under greater water use restrictions effective immediately.
In an effort to reduce the city’s water use by 15 percent compared to levels in 2020, all landscaping irrigation is limited to certain days and times, at a maximum of three times per week.
Odd numbered addresses can only water on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, and even numbered addresses can water on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays. Residents also cannot use sprinklers between 9 a.m. and 6 p.m. However, residents are allowed to water at any time during their approved water days with tools like hoses with shut-off nozzles, watering cans or drip irrigation systems.
The water restrictions, which were approved during the council’s Sept. 27 meeting, apply to all properties in city limits, and will remain until drought conditions improve or water supplies replenish.
More information about the city’s drought and water conservation efforts can be found online.

A balanced scoring attack and some key 3-pointers sent the DePauw men’s basketball team to its fourth consecutive win Sunday as they defeated Allegheny, 67-64, in a North Coast Athletic Conference matchup.
The win brings DePauw to 6-5 overall and 2-2 in the NCAC, while Allegheny drops to 2-9 overall and 2-2 in the conference.
David Vogel’s 17 points led the Tigers. Luke Lattner added 11 points and Adam Botts came off the bench to add 12 points on four 3-pointers.
DePauw shot 42 percent (22-of-52) from the floor with more than half of their shots coming from beyond the arc, where they shot 44 percent (15-of-34). Allegheny shot 40 percent (24-of-59) and 35 percent (6-of-17) from 3-point range.
Thus, Allegheny outscored DePauw in the paint 26-4, but the Tigers’ defense held the Allegheny starters to just 14 points.
John Starkey gave the Tigers their largest lead of the game in the first half at 27-19 with 4:13 remaining, but the Gators immediately went on a 14-0 run to take their largest lead of the game at 33-29 with 1:03 left. However, the Tigers were able to tie it by the half at 35 with one second remaining on a 3-pointer from Botts.
The two teams stayed within seven points of each other for the remainder of the game. The Tigers opened the scoring in the second half with a 3-pointer from Vogel and held it for the remainder of the game.
The Gators cut the deficit to just one at 62-61 with 1:08 remaining, but Lattner found Mason Hankins for a big 3-pointer to make it a two possession game with 46 second remaining. Hankins finished with nine points, four assists and three rebounds.
Allegheny hit a 3-pointer with six seconds remaining and fouled Lattner on the ensuing possession. Lattner hit both his free throws, and Allegheny was unable to get another shot off as time expired.
DePauw returns to action 2 p.m. Monday when it travels to Hiram for another NCAC matchup.

I imagine to any passing lorry driver, it probably looked like my car had broken down: it was actually the driver who had
I was at the Oxford Literary Festival at the weekend to give a talk on Graham Greene's novel The End of the Affair, published 60 years ago in September, and to assess his position in the 20th century literary canon today. When Greene died on April 3rd 1991 – twenty years ago last week – I remember first hearing the news listening to the radio while driving south down the M1 (I was somewhere like the exit for Rotherham).
When I interviewed Vivien Greene, Greene's wife of over 50 years, in the course of researching my Greene biography (focusing on his years with Catherine Walston that inspired The End of the Affair) she told me that the only time she had ever seen Greene himself 'shake' with emotion was when he was first introduced to TS Eliot, a writer and poet that he admired – like Evelyn Waugh – more than any other 20th century writer.
When he was feverishly trying to 'win' Catherine Walston in the late Forties and early Fifties and get her to marry him (she was married to a wealthy left-wing landowner called Harry Walston with an estate near Cambridge) Greene made a habit of presenting her each year with an aquamarine diary that included a hand written quotation (chosen by Greene) for each day of the year. For 13th August 1950, Greene quoted Eliot, from his essay on Baudelaire: 'With the disappearance of the idea of Original Sin, with the disappearance of the idea of an intense moral struggle, the human beings presented to us in both poetry and prose… tend to become less real'.
This epigraph sums up much of the enduring appeal of Greene today, whose novels continue to sell and be read because characters – from Bendrix to Scobie – articulate the moral anxieties and paradoxes of 20th century consciousness within a moral scaffolding where actions have real consequences. I rarely feel that when I read most literary novelists today; and I certainly didn't pull over on the hard shoulder of the motorway when I heard than John Updike or Saul Bellow had died.
Strangely enough, however, I did find myself – bizarrely – sitting next to the poet Geoffrey Hill, recently installed at Oxford Professor of Poetry, at the black tie gala dinner in Christ Church on the final evening of the literary festival. While I was able to eat my gourmet curry without shaking, I was acutely aware that sitting next to Hill in Christ Church Great Hall is not unlike sitting next to TS Eliot or WH Auden at dinner and I was thankful that I had been introduced to his work by the brilliant Trinity Cambridge don Eric Griffiths (who was my tutor).
Hill is almost certainly the greatest living poet alive today. While some of his work is truly obscure and 'difficult’ in the way that great poetry, as Eliot once said, should be, I was relieved that I could recall much of the gritty, muscular lyricism of his extraordinary Mercian Hymns and a review he once wrote for the TLS on the new Oxford English Dictionary which ran to 10,000 words. When I mentioned this to him, and asked if the TLS editor knew he was going to be filing 10,000 words, Hill smiled and said: 'Yes, I did warn them it was going to be on the long side.’ They printed every word and the review must be one of the longest ever printed in a newspaper or magazine.
What I had not been expecting, however, was Hill's enormous Prospero-like beard. A tall man, with clear and penetrating brown eyes, Hill has a formidable presence as wel as a gravelly voice that I heard in all its Tennysonian preacher's grandeur the following day when he gave a formal sermon (‘It will take between fifty minutes to an hour, depending on how fast I read,’ he told me) at Sung Matins at 10am the next morning in Christ Church Cathedral. As he stood in the pulpit, with a scarlet robe on, talking about the ‘maiestas’ of the Four Quartets, Hill resembled the bearded St Jerome.
In the 12th century, a monk wrote a famous book called An Apology for Beards which argued that the more matted and dirty hair one had growing by way of a beard, the more it celebrated the 'marvellous mystery' of the soul – the more outwardly unkempt and greasy the beard, the more it revealed 'interior cleanliness' and ‘divine virtue'.
I was almost disappointed to see that despite its length and majestic growth, Hill’s beard did appear to be clean and unspeckled by grime.
At one point in our conversation (we were discussing Auden's passion for detective fiction and the novels of Agatha Christie) Hill's fondness for the 'difficult' over the populist and easy became self-evident. His favourite detective, said Hill, was Kurt Wallander, the laconic and existentialist divorced Swedish policeman in the novels of Henning Mankell. 'Did you like Kenneth Branagh's portrayal?’ I asked. 'Oh no,' replied Hill. 'You must watch the original TV version – in Swedish.’

A divided U.S. Supreme Court on Monday allowed a Trump administration rule to take effect that will deny green cards to immigrants who partake in public benefits such as Medicaid, food stamps, and housing aid. Some educators have been concerned that the “public charge” rule will put the health and well-being of millions of immigrant children at risk and impose new burdens on school districts.
The justices ruled 5-4 to lift a preliminary injunction by a federal district judge in New York City that had blocked the implementation of the rule nationwide pending further court proceedings. Justices Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Stephen G. Breyer, Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan said they would have denied the Trump administration’s request in Department of Homeland Security v. New York (No. 19A785).
At issue is a rule promulgated last year by the Department of Homeland Security that expands the definition of an immigrant “likely to become a public charge” from one who was dependent on a certain cash benefits from the government to include such non-cash benefits as Medicaid, housing vouchers, and the Supplemental Nutritional Assistance Program.
The rule requires government officials weighing a request for legal permanent residency by an immigrant living in the United States or for immigrants seeking admission at the border to determine whether the immigrant is likely to receive such benefits for more than 12 months in aggregate within any 36-month period.
Two federal appeals court have held that the Homeland Security Department is likely to prevail in challenges brought under the Immigration and Nationality Act. But U.S. District Judge George B. Daniels of New York City blocked the rule from taking effect nationwide in challenges brought by an immigrant-services group and the states of Connecticut, New York, and Vermont, along with New York City.
“The supplemental benefits targeted by the rule are a far cry from almshouses, institutional care, or income-maintenance programs—programs that are designed to serve destitute individuals who are extremely unlikely to meet their basic subsistence requirements without relying primarily on the government in the long term,” said a Supreme Court brief filed by the three states and New York City. “The rule’s inclusion of these supplemental benefits thus stretches ‘public charge’ far past the breaking point of reasonable interpretation.”
U.S. Solicitor General Noel B. Francisco told the high court in a brief that “As a result of the injunctions, the government is precluded from implementing its chosen policy and, indeed, will grant lawful permanent resident status to aliens who are statutorily ‘inadmissible’ because, in the opinion of the Executive Branch, each is likely to become a public charge.”
Concerns for Education
The DHS rule, while adding Medicaid as a factor in the public-charge analysis, specifically states that certain educational benefits would not be factored in. They include services funded by Medicaid under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act, and “school-based services or benefits provided to individuals who are at or below the oldest age eligible for secondary education as determined under state or local law.”
Despite those exceptions, some educators and immigrant advocates fear the rule will dissuade immigrants from seeking certain benefits, such as Medicaid and SNAP, and that schools will have to make up for aid that might otherwise be provided for by the federal government.
“Recent research has shown that the proposed rule would have a chilling effect that could lead to disenrollment from public programs for a larger group of immigrant families because they do not understand the rule’s details and would fear their or their children’s enrollment could negatively affect their or their family members’ immigration status,” said a 2018 letter from AASA, the School Superintendents Association, commenting on the proposed rule.
The Alexandria, Va.-based association also argued that the inclusion of SNAP in the public-charge analysis would “exacerbate food insecurity of children.” And the rule’s inclusion of public housing aid “will lead to increased numbers of children in unstable housing situations as it will deter eligible immigrant families from seeking much-needed housing and homelessness benefits,” the association said.
Sasha Pudelski, the advocacy director of AASA, said Monday that the Trump administration rule is “bad policy and as superintendents we are taking a stand on a policy that will undermine the health and well-being of children.”
The Supreme Court majority’s brief order allows the new rule to go into effect pending the outcome of an appeal of the nationwide injunction pending before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 2nd Circuit, in New York City. (It appears that a more-limited injunction in a separate case will continue to block the rule in Illinois.)
Justice Neil M. Gorsuch, in a short concurrence joined by Justice Clarence Thomas, called for the court to take up the “increasingly widespread practice” of federal district judges issuing nationwide injunctions.
