how do wrinkle fillers work

NO. Wrinkle fillers can actually work, but you have to use the right ones that are both high in quality and contain enough of the active ingredients to help your skin. To understand how these special creams and fillers can help with your wrinkles we need to understand WHY we have wrinkles in the first place.

"The Best Wrinkle Fillers For Women that Actually Work (2018 Edition)1SHARESShare Tweet It IS possible to turn back the clock and reverse the signs of aging. All it takes is the right knowledge and the right application of certain high quality products (and some other changes) to get it right. In this guide I will walk you through the best wrinkle fillers of 2017 that actually work to reduce those fine lines, wrinkles, sagging skin and ""sun spots"". Let's dive in: More...

Obagi Professional-C Serum Wrinkle Fillers to AVOIDRo C Retinol Correxion Deep Wrinkle Filler Other Strategies to Look Younger Back to you Are Wrinkle Fillers Too Good to be True? Wrinkles... It's something every single one of us will have to deal with at some point in our lives. But what if we could do something about it? What if you could SLOW down the aging process and turn back the clock 5, 10 or 15 years? Thanks to some amazing science and some very high quality products, that dream can now become a reality. So to answer the question: Are wrinkle fillers too good to be true? The answer is definitely a resounding

And this is where things get interesting... It's estimated that 90% of the signs of aging and getting older can be attributed to one thing: Sun damage (otherwise known as photodamage). The dermatologists like to refer to it as photodamage so we will too. Photodamage results in several changes that make your skin look older: Loss of subcutaneous tissues and fat which leads to ""sagging""Breakdown in collagen which leads to uneven texture resulting in wrinkles Damage resulting in changes to melanin which causes dark spots or hyperpigmentation in certain areas Disordered stratum corneum (top layer of the skin) which is normally well organzied, this changes the ""texture"" and ""quality"" of your skin To illustrate this point I have included the various stages of aging as it relates to sun damage below: You can clearly see the decline in the subcutaneous tissue, the addition of wrinkles, the change in tissue texture and the alteration in the skin tone as you progress from grade 1 through 8. What's even more interesting is that much of this damage can occur simply due to sun damage, not necessarily just from age. In fact studies have shown that a higher percentage of sun damage will actually make you look older!This graph easily outlines what happens with chronic sun exposure. You can see that with just a small amount of sun exposure (in this case about 3-5%) a woman will look 3 years older. On the flip side, a reduction in sun exposure by 3-5% will make a woman look 3 years YOUNGER. Bingo. Now we are talking and this gives us a way to reverse the clock. If we focus on healing photo damage, reducing sun exposure and by ""plumping"" up the skin we can create a serum that actually reverses the aging process. And that's exactly how these wrinkle fillers work. They actually reverse sun damage and provide the right nutrients to help regrow your collagen (more on that later). Is photo damage the only cause of aging? Not so fast. There are also many other factors that attribute to that last 10%... Other factors that lead to rapid aging and wrinkles: Smoking Genetics Pollution Vitamin and nutrient deficiencies Illness Chronic medical conditions Hormone imbalances (and menopause)And even some medications I've included these here just to make sure you know about them. Because if you are still smoking, or not taking any hair skin or nails vitamins then you need to get on top of those ASAP. The wrinkle fillers we are going to talk about definitely work, but they are better if they are used as part of a whole treatment plan that includes a healthy diet, serums, lots of water and some vitamins. Over the Counter Wrinkle Fillers vs Dermal Fillers We also need to spend a quick minute talking about dermal fillers and about over the counter wrinkle fillers. Over the counter wrinkle fillers work by changing the STRUCTURE of your skin. They help your skin to naturally regrow and reverse the signs of aging by using special ingredients, vitamins and serums. Dermal fillers, on the other hand, work by simply adding in a collagen like substance straight into certain areas of your face. They are synthetically created and then injected under the skin to provide immediate results. So... Which kind of treatment should you get? I'm a fan of using the all natural approach because it's more healthy, but I also understand the need for some people to use the fillers. It's also a good idea to consider using BOTH at the same time, because you will get the best bang for your buck and you will get immediate results. OTC Wrinkle Fillers benefits: PROSHelp treat the underlying CAUSE of wrinkles and aging Are natural and contain natural ingredients Can be used long term Don't require a procedure to use Will also help nourish the skin and treat other problems like acne CONSTake weeks to take effect May be expensive to get the right ingredients at the right dose Must be used daily for best results Some people may not tolerate ingredients (may get a rash, etc. )Dermal fillers benefits: PROSYou get Immediate results May potentially help you look younger than using serums alone Can be combined with serums to achieve LONG TERM and lasting effects CONSNot necessarily natural approach Will fade over time (usually 6 to 18 months)Requires a small procedure that may be painful The procedure is expensive Results depend on the person doing the procedure One is not necessarily better than the other. Because of that make sure you take a long look at the pros and cons and determine which will be best for YOUR body. If you've decided to at least learn more about the serums (great choice!) then continue reading and we will go over which ones ACTUALLY work. The Best Wrinkle Fillers of 2017If you want to find a wrinkle filler that works you need to look for some special ingredients. Why? Because only certain ingredients (and certain volumes) help to reverse the signs of aging and get rid of those wrinkles. One of the most beneficial anti-aging ingredients is high quality Vitamin C. Vitamin C in the L-ascorbic acid form at 20% concentration and at a p H of 3.5 has been clinically proven to reduce those wrinkles. In addition to Vitamin C high quality anti oxidants and anti inflammatory agents (like olive oil extract, Vitamin C + E) can help reduce DNA damage from the sun. Other products contain specialized galactomannans that have been shown to help your skin absorb and retain moisture to provide a ""plump"" look. Right up there in terms of importance is Retinol. Retinol is a form of Vitamin A (which can be used along with Vitamin C) can has been shown to increase collagen production in the skin and even out skin tones . As you can see there isn't a ""one-size-fits-all"" approach to reducing your wrinkles. But rest assured that ALL of the products listed below contain the all important ingredients listed above in high enough dosages to help provide the anti-aging look you are searching for. If you see Professional Beauty or Luxury Beauty you can rest assured that you are getting the REAL deal, not some knock off product. Now that we have that out of the way, let's jump into my favorite products:#1. i S Clinical Youth Complex with Innovase Overall rating: Overall Quality High quality with studied ingredients and science to back it up Price Price is higher than other brands Personal Rating I personally use this product but do switch between other products on occasion Who should use it: Ingredients: Anyone over the age of 35 who is also noticing subtle changes to their skin like sagging, fine lines, wrinkles or a lack of moisture The earlier you start using a product like this the better, so get started BEFORE the wrinkles start to appear!White Willow Bark Extract (shown to reduce the signs of aging) also helps to exfoliate the epidermis and reduce pore size Copper tripeptide Growth Factor (helps promote skin growth and can visibly help reduce wrinkles if used over time)Hyaluronic acid (helps increase moisture)Mixed fruit acid extracts to help reduce inflammation and oxidation How to use it: Why it works Must be applied to the face and neck each day, works best if combined with high quality Vitamin C serum + moisturizer Natural anti inflammatory agents help to reduce inflammation while growth factors help regenerate skin and even out collagen - the end result is a reduction in wrinkles over time Recommended product: If you are looking for a product to apply to your entire face and neck area then use this one: Read more reviews here If you are looking for a product directly for the eyes and ""crows feet"" then use this product: Read more reviews here I've found that woman over the age of 40 tend to do better with this particular brand. If you are younger than 40, or have very oily skin, then the other preparations listed below will likely serve you better. Next up is a product from meaningful beauty and endorsed by Cindy Crawford. I generally tend to avoid products with celebrity endorsements, but if they work they work. Your browser does not currently recognize any of the video formats available. Click here to visit our frequently asked questions about HTML5 video.0:00 / 0:00And this product tends to work well for a certain sub group of people. Namely: Younger women under the age of 40 with oily skin. Reviews for this product are very positive, but like all products you want to make sure you are getting the REAL DEAL!Most of the poor reviews you see out there come from people who received the fake product. Another interesting fact is that in a 12-week consumer perception study (not the best study I know) the vast majority of people who used the Ultra lifting and filling treatment experienced several benefits including:93% saw skin that looked significantly firmer, tighter and more lifted96% reported that their skin looked younger visually100% said their skin appeared more luminous and looked more ""plump""While this isn't necessarily hard data, it's always helpful to know that products help the majority of people that use them. It's also important to realize that simply by increasing moisture in your skin you can also reduce some fine lines and wrinkles. #2. Meaningful Beauty Ultra Lifting and Filling Treatment Overall rating: Overall Quality High quality with high quality ingredients Price Great price and value for ingredients Personal Rating Not my favorite but has worked well for my friends Who should use it: Ingredients: I find this product works best for women under 40 with oily skin who are noticing a small amount of winkles/changes to their skin who want to PREVENT further issues form arising If you have heavy photodamage then you will need to use a stronger product or combine this with Vitamin C serum Microencapsulated melon complex ( powerful anti inflammatory agent)Hyaluronic acid Vitamin CGlycerin How to use it: Why it works Can be applied to the face, neck and chest Should be used daily in the morning AFTER cleansing (apply to all areas in need)Anti inflammatory agents help prevent future sun damage Vitamin C helps even skin tone and promote collagen production Glycerin helps to promote moisture while Hyaluronic acid helps reduce pore size Recommended product: Read more reviews here As you've probably noticed each product has a slightly different design and way to help reduce wrinkles. This next product isn't different. Instead of focusing on regrowth of collagen it promotes an increase in epidermal moisture resulting in more ""plump"" skin that ""fills out"" the existing wrinkles. The benefit to using this kind of approach is that it works VERY quickly and results are seen within a few weeks. I've included it here because the combination of this hydration product plus Professional-C (also by Obagi) is something I used for a long time and it works well. #3. Obagi Hydrate Luxe Moisture-Rich Cream Overall rating: Overall Quality Very high quality (Obagi products are used in dermatology & plastic surgery offices)Price The price is higher, but in this case you get what you pay for Personal Rating Can be used with other facial creams and products Who should use it: Ingredients: People with photo damage, wrinkles, hyperpigmentation due to sun damage AND with loose or sagging skin Best if used in combination with Vitamin C + other youth serums to help moisturize and hydrate skin Hydromanil Glycerin Mango, Shea and Avocado How to use it: Why it works Apply a small dab to your face in the evening (use after toner and cleanser)If using Vitamin C serum, place this moisturizer on your face before you apply serum Hydromanil has been clinically shown to increase the moisture and ""plump"" up the skin Contains galactomannans which improve moisture in the stratum corneum Glycerin allows the epidermal skin cells to absorb and retain more water Natural ingredients like Mango, Shea and Avocado help reduce inflammation and repair the skin with anti oxidants Recommended product: Use this product if you want to improve the texture and quality of your entire face: Read more reviews here If you are interested in just the eye area or around your ""frown"" lines then this product is better: Read more reviews here Last up on the high quality list is Obagi Professional-C Serum. Vitamin C pretty much HAS to be a part of your skin regimen in some form or another. Why? Because no other ingredient (well except for Retinol) has been studied as much as Vitamin C and has been proven time and time again to increase collagen, even out skin tones, reduce photo damage by acting as an anti-oxidant and improve the texture of your skin. This effect is so important I've written extensively about how to pick out the best vitamin C serum (including which products to purchase and which to avoid). You can read the full guide here.#4. Obagi Professional-C Serum Overall rating: Overall Quality Contains high concentrations of L-ascorbic acid but no other ingredients Price High price, but high quality Why I Love it Definitely works but may be better for women older than 40 or women with oily skin Who should use it: Ingredients: People with oily skin People with photo damage or extreme sun damage People who have done well on other obagi products in the past Bullet Point 2L-Ascorbic acid (active ingredient)prpylene glyccol (inactive)Zinc chloride (inactive)Calcium hydroxide (inactive)How to use it: Why it works Apply 5-7 drops directly to your face after cleansing Spread evening throughout your face and to your neck line Use in the evening Make sure product is protected form the sun Contains 20% Vitamin C which promotes collagen production and stimulates growth in the skin to even skin tones Recommended product: See more reviews here Bottom line? The approach you take and which serums you use is largely dependent upon YOUR skin and YOUR goals. Because this process can be tricky and does require some element of trial and error, I've included my personal regimen below. Just realize that this was the result of lots of trial and error on my part and it fits my needs perfectly (I'm trying to prevent damage from occurring!). My recommended combination and what I use: Obagi luxe cream (to give the skin a plump look)i S clinical pro heal (contains vitamin C to reverse sun damage) alternatively you can also use Obagi's professional C serum if you prefer Obagi productsi S clinical Active serum (contains retinol which has been clinically proven to reverse fine lines and wrinkles)Hair skin and nails Vitamin (my personal favorite)At least 1 facial or microneedling or dermaplaning therapy each month AND I drink 1 gallon of water EACH day I never said looking younger was cheap, but if you follow this guide you will at least look 10 years younger than all of the woman you know. If you have questions about my personal regimen please leave them below Wrinkle Fillers to AVOIDNot all wrinkle fillers are created equally. When it comes to skin care products you generally get what you pay for. I know it can be tempting to get a cheap Ro C Retinol Correxion Deep Wrinkle Filler Overall rating: Many of the cheaper products contain low concentrations of active ingredients and cheap fillers that may make your skin react. I've found it's best to stick to high quality ingredients and brands that tell you EXACTLY what is in their products (and the amounts). Avoid products that have lots of reviews from giving away the product for free. Learn more Other Strategies to Look Younger As I mentioned above, you also need to take other steps if you want your skin to look young and healthy. Believe me when I say that the woman who make your headstop are ALSO doing these things, and they shouldn't come as a secret. If you are interesting in looking and FEELING younger make sure you follow these steps as well: #1. Get enough sleep One of the best things you can do is get 8 hours of sleep. Lack of sleep leads to weight gain, more stress and even high blood sugar!Let your brain and body relax EVERY night and make it a priority. Your skin will thank you.#2. Drink enough water Hydration is important for skin texture but also for cleansing your body. One of the best ways to keep your skin nice and plump is with up to 1 gallon of water each and every day. Couple this with exercise that builds up a good sweat and your skin will look refreshed every day. #3. Be smart about sun exposure We got just done mentioning that sun exposure is responsible for 90% of the aging process, so this one is really important. But not ALL sun is bad sun. It's actually necessary to get some Vitamin D from the sun. To get the sun you need spend time only in the sun during the hours of Noon to 2pm and only for 10-20 minutes at a time. Other times of the day you should protect your skin because the suns rays contain more UVA rays which can cause the photodamage that leads to aging. #4. Eat healthy (whole foods)Eating whole foods will help increase nutrients in your body and maintain proper hormones. Eating pizza, dairy, refined carbs and sugar can lead to acne, weight gain and other inflammatory skin conditions like rosacea. If you want to pick a diet start with the paleo diet and figure out what works best for you from there!#5. Get your hormones checked and consider using hormones Hormone imbalances like hypothyroidism, estrogen dominance and PCOS lead to big changes in your skin. These conditions lead to very difficult to treat hormonal acne that requires more than just topical ingredients. If you don't have normal hormone balance in your body then your skin conditions won't go away, and no amount of serums/creams/lotions will cover up the problem. Also, one of the best things you can do to prevent the aging process is use normal and healthy amounts of bio identical hormones. If you are a post menopausal woman you should consider discussing this with your Doctor, because the proper use of Estradiol and progesterone can literally stop the aging clock. This is how women in their 60's look like they are in their 40's - bioidentical hormones is one of the best kept anti aging secrets. #6. Take Vitamins I'm talking about more than just hair skin and nails. Vitamins like Zinc, Vitamin C and Selenium are all required for normal hair growth and for proper skin development. Make sure your body has enough of these valuable nutrients. #7. Get high quality skin care products! A reminder: Stick to high quality skin care products that you KNOW will work. Any brand recommended on this blog will fit the bill and is safe to use. Using low quality products and brands may lead to further damage down the line. Back to you The bottom line? If you want to reduce those wrinkles and have younger looking skin you are going to need to work for it. Make sure to find a product that contains Vitamin C, Retinol and other moisturizing components like peptides to help your skin. These products have been clinically shown to reverse the signs of aging by increasing collagen product and by helping your skin retain moisture. In addition make sure to only purchase high quality products from reputable sources. Now it's your turn: What products are you using to fill in your wrinkles? What products do you LOVE?

what is an emg/ncs test

When your muscles are sore or weak and you don’t know why, there are a couple of tests that can help give you answers. One is electromyography (EMG). The other is a nerve conduction study (NCS). They are often done at the same time. Your doctor can use the results of these tests to figure out whether you have a muscular problem or a nerve problem.

What is EMG and Nerve Conduction Study?

What is EMG and Nerve Conduction Study? In this Article What Is EMG? What Is NCS? Do I Need EMG or NCS? What the Tests Reveal How Do I Get Ready for the Tests? What Happens During the Tests? After the Studies

What Is EMG? Your muscles move when nerve signals from the brain tell them to get to work. Electromyography measures how well your muscles respond to those signals. If the test picks up a problem, you may be diagnosed with what is called a neuromuscular disorder. What Is NCS? Nerve signals are electrical impulses that travel quickly throughout your nervous system. Sometimes, problems with the electrical activity in your nerves can cause pain, tingling, or weakness in your muscles. NCS measures how fast and how strong the electrical activity is in a nerve. The test can tell whether a nerve has been damaged. Continue Reading Belowyou might like Do I Need EMG or NCS? It’s natural to have soreness or numbness in a muscle once in a while. You might strain a wrist muscle lifting something heavy, for example. For many people, though, a sore wrist is caused by an injured nerve, not an injured muscle. When it’s not clear why you’re having problems with your wrist, back, legs, or other body part, one or both of these tests may be helpful. The tests may be given to people who have the following symptoms that don’t go away: Pain or cramping Tingling or numbness Muscle weakness What the Tests Reveal Both tests can help doctors diagnose what’s wrong with you. They can also help rule out conditions that you don’t have. EMG and NCS are helpful in diagnosing: Neuromuscular diseases, such as muscular dystrophy Nerve problems in the spine, such as a herniated disk Nerve problems elsewhere in the body, such as carpal tunnel syndrome Peripheral nerve problems in your arms or legs Pinched nerves Guillain -Barré syndrome, a disease in which your immune system attacks the nerves in your legs and arms NCS can also help your doctor see how well you’re recovering from a nerve injury.1 2 3 View All


cost alternative to restasis

SAN DIEGO, Oct. 19, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Imprimis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: IMMY), an ophthalmology-focused pharmaceutical company, today announced it is making compounded Cyclosporine-based formulations available for physicians to consider prescribing as customizable and potentially lower-cost alternatives to Restasis®.

Imprimis Pharmaceuticals to Offer Compounded Cyclosporine Alternative to RestasisÂ®

"Imprimis Pharmaceuticals to Offer Compounded Cyclosporine Alternative to Restasis®Initial prescriptions will be 99 cents for a one month supply with refills starting at $79 per month, including shipping News provided by Imprimis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. Oct 19, 2017, 07:30 ETShare this article

Imprimis' Cyclosporine-based compounded formulations, which will be packaged in a multi-use preservative-free bottle, are patent-pending and include ""Klarity Drops™,"" a patented formulation developed by renowned ophthalmologist Richard L. Lindstrom, MD. Dry Eye Disease is estimated to affect up to 30 million Americans and is commonly characterized by irritated, gritty, scratchy or burning eyes, blurred vision, and feeling particles in the eye when there are none. Advanced Dry Eye Disease may damage the front surface of the eye and ultimately impair vision. The Imprimis Cyclosporine-based formulations, which are made from FDA-approved drug components and compounded in FDA-inspected facilities, require a patient specific prescription and may be customized according to patients' individual needs. Mark L. Baum, CEO of Imprimis stated, ""We believe Dry Eye Disease patients can benefit from unique customized medications that are not commercially available. While physicians who use compounded Cyclosporine formulations have anecdotally known this for many years, there is now published data that demonstrates the clinical value of topical Cyclosporine formulations at concentrations greater than those currently available in commercially available medications. We are pleased to be able to offer affordable customized Cyclosporine formulations that are designed for patients' individual needs. ""Baum added, ""Imprimis has long championed issues of access, affordability and competition. While there are an estimated 30 million Americans suffering from Dry Eye Disease, only a small fraction of these patients receive therapy. Topical Cyclosporine, which is an off-patent and inexpensive drug, can cost more than $5,000 per year when it is purchased in the commercially available form of Restasis ® . We believe that affordability can affect access to needed medications, and it is our hope that our formulations will allow more patients to gain access to a high quality customized Cyclosporine treatment option. ""In addition to this announcement, Imprimis will soon make publicly available a presentation on Surface Pharmaceuticals, Inc. Surface is a wholly owned subsidiary of Imprimis that is focused entirely on ocular surface disease, including Dry Eye Disease and Blepharitis. Surface has three core drug formulations based on two issued US patents and three pending patents, and intends to seek FDA-approval through the 505 (b) (2) pathway for as many as five ocular surface disease and ophthalmic indications.

what is legal outside counsel

First, the definition. An outside general counsel is an attorney who is not an employee but who can bring the experience and knowledge necessary to handle a broad array of legal and business matters whenever needed, without the expense of having a full-time attorney on staff.

What Is An Outside General Counsel, Anyway? Published on October 9, 2014David Keystone Follow Sign in to follow this author General Counsel & Executive Vice President of Administration at Service West, Inc. Have you been wondering what I mean when I say that, in addition to being a business attorney, I’m also outside general counsel to many of my clients? Here’s a little bit of information to help clarify the role and also assist you in determining whether having outside general counsel available to you would be useful to your business.

Outside general counsel can either be on retainer, but often is simply available on an as-needed basis, and usually becomes quite familiar with the company, its senior management, and its operations. Outside general counsel may perform the vast majority of the company’s legal work directly, or, when necessary, may identify unique issues and obtain specialized legal and non-legal referrals, overseeing and coordinating those referrals on behalf of the client. Second, is it something your business should consider? Here are some of the factors that make having an outside general counsel something to consider:1. Does your company have one or more employees? California Employers face a myriad of complex laws, regulations and guidelines that govern their interactions with their employees, as well as their own employees’ interactions with one another. Employers are required to be aware of and comply with employment laws and regulations, and face the very real prospect of making inadvertent, costly missteps for failing to do so. It’s a good idea to check in with an attorney familiar with employment law prior to hiring your first employee to ensure compliance, but it’s not always necessary to establish a long-term general counsel arrangement for companies with just a handful of employees. Because employment laws change quite often, however, it is important for all companies with employees to review their compliance with ever-changing employment laws.2. Does your company have between 20 and 100 employees? While employment laws and regulations vary depending upon the number of employees a company has, at this size, it’s very likely that there are significant benefits to having an outside general counsel available to work with your company. Not only are the stakes much higher for employment-related matters, but companies of this size are often faced with other legal and business challenges that smaller companies may be able to avoid. As companies grow beyond 100 employees, they sometimes decide to hire a dedicated, full-time general counsel rather than use an outside general counsel, simply because the types and frequency of the issues that arise tend to increase exponentially.3. Is your company operating in an industry with extra regulatory or compliance issues? Construction companies, restaurants, establishments that sell alcohol, and medical device manufacturers, just to name a few, are operating within industries that often have to comply with additional licensing, regulatory and reporting obligations. Ensuring that those obligations are not only satisfied, but that companies operating in such industries are at all times ready for potential unannounced audits by their licensing boards or regulatory agencies is critical to their ability to literally continue to operate. Experienced outside general counsel can identify, obtain, properly maintain, and, if necessary, defend, those extra, but critically necessary licensing, regulatory and reporting obligations required to keep the doors open and the lights on.4. Do you negotiate more than just a few contracts each year? Do you negotiate and draft contracts with customers, distributors or vendors? Do you have proprietary information and trade secrets critical to your business that must be maintained as confidential by third parties? Do you work with or develop intellectual property that requires protection? Even small companies sometimes are operating within industries requiring customized contracts that fully and properly address sensitive information in an appropriate way. These types of situations and contracts often require the expertise of an attorney to negotiate and draft so they allow the most flexibility while at the same time offer maximum protection. If your company works in an industry or environment such as this, experienced outside general counsel is something to consider.5. Do you need an experienced, outside trusted advisor to assist with some of the more complex aspects of your business? Outside general counsel often have business expertise in addition to their legal background. They, sometimes, also have had hands-on experience working previously as in-house counsel for another company, and also the benefit of having worked in private practice with a wide range of clients in diverse industries. This often results in outside general counsel having most likely experienced and resolved issues and challenges with other clients that are similar to those your own company may be facing. With outside general counsel, you get the benefits of an attorney with years of extensive and broad legal and business experience, even if your company is in its early days. The Law Offices of David E. Keystone serves as outside general counsel to businesses of every type and size. Think of us as your own on-call legal team; we are available to you only when you need us, but when you do, we are just a quick phone call or email away. Whether at a moment’s notice or for projects planned well in advance, whether working on several matters at once or just one, The Law Offices of David E.

""According to Celebrity Net Worth, the former NFL player’s net worth is estimated to be $55 million in comparison to Kelly Ripa’s net worth of $100 million.

By 2015, it had significantly increased to $10 million. Ripa earns $20 million, which is double what Strahan makes from the show. Reportedly Strahan will get $20 million from ""GMA."" While Strahan's salary has not been confirmed, his move will more than likely be quite lucrative and more than what he is making on ""Live. ""Even though Strahan’s move from “Live with Kelly and Michael” to “Good Morning America” will be a big payday for him, it will also be a big payday for the talk show and for ABC. The network hasn't kept it a secret that Disney CEO Bob Iger himself called and convinced Strahan to make the move in September to help the show maintain its rating over the ""Today"" show. Officials at the network have seen that Strahan connects with the audience and has a great appeal to the younger generation, the area where ""GMA"" is slipping.

Precipitation A wet day is one with at least 0.04 inches of liquid or liquid-equivalent precipitation. The chance of wet days in Searcy varies throughout the year. The wetter season lasts 4.7 months, from March 14 to August 4, with a greater than 31% chance of a given day being a wet day. The chance of a wet day peaks at 40% on May 15. The drier season lasts 7.3 months, from August 4 to March 14. The smallest chance of a wet day is 22% on January 24. Among wet days, we distinguish between those that experience rain alone, snow alone, or a mixture of the two. Based on this categorization, the most common form of precipitation throughout the year is rain alone, with a peak probability of 40% on May 15. Daily Chance of Precipitation The percentage of days in which various types of precipitation are observed, excluding trace quantities: rain alone, snow alone, and mixed (both rain and snow fell in the same day). Rainfall To show variation within the months and not just the monthly totals, we show the rainfall accumulated over a sliding 31-day period centered around each day of the year. Searcy experiences significant seasonal variation in monthly rainfall. Rain falls throughout the year in Searcy. The most rain falls during the 31 days centered around May 1, with an average total accumulation of 4.9 inches. The least rain falls around August 18, with an average total accumulation of 2.3 inches. Average Monthly Rainfall The average rainfall (solid line) accumulated over the course of a sliding 31-day period centered on the day in question, with 25th to 75th and 10th to 90th percentile bands. The thin dotted line is the corresponding average liquid-equivalent snowfall. Snowfall We report snowfall in liquid-equivalent terms. The actual depth of new snowfall is typically between 5 and 10 times the liquid-equivalent amount, assuming the ground is frozen. Colder, drier snow tends to be on the higher end of that range and warmer, wetter snow on the lower end. As with rainfall, we consider the snowfall accumulated over a sliding 31-day period centered around each day of the year. Searcy experiences some seasonal variation in monthly liquid-equivalent snowfall. The snowy period of the year lasts for 3.4 months, from December 1 to March 15, with a sliding 31-day liquid-equivalent snowfall of at least 0.1 inches. The most snow falls during the 31 days centered around January 15, with an average total liquid-equivalent accumulation of 0.3 inches.

Average Liquid-Equivalent Monthly Snowfall The average liquid-equivalent snowfall (solid line) accumulated over the course of a sliding 31-day period centered on the day in question, with 25th to 75th and 10th to 90th percentile bands. The thin dotted line is the corresponding average rainfall. Sun The length of the day in Searcy varies significantly over the course of the year. In 2018, the shortest day is December 21, with 9 hours, 47 minutes of daylight; the longest day is June 21, with 14 hours, 32 minutes of daylight. Hours of Daylight and Twilight The number of hours during which the Sun is visible (black line). From bottom (most yellow) to top (most gray), the color bands indicate: full daylight, twilight (civil, nautical, and astronomical), and full night. The earliest sunrise is at 5:51 AM on June 13, and the latest sunrise is 1 hour, 39 minutes later at 7:30 AM on November 3. The earliest sunset is at 4:54 PM on December 5, and the latest sunset is 3 hours, 31 minutes later at 8:25 PM on June 28. Daylight saving time (DST) is observed in Searcy during 2018, starting in the spring on March 11, lasting 7.8 months, and ending in the fall on November 4. Sunrise & Sunset with Twilight and Daylight Saving Time The solar day over the course of the year 2018. From bottom to top, the black lines are the previous solar midnight, sunrise, solar noon, sunset, and the next solar midnight. The day, twilights (civil, nautical, and astronomical), and night are indicated by the color bands from yellow to gray. The transitions to and from daylight saving time are indicated by the 'DST' labels. Humidity We base the humidity comfort level on the dew point, as it determines whether perspiration will evaporate from the skin, thereby cooling the body. Lower dew points feel drier and higher dew points feel more humid. Unlike temperature, which typically varies significantly between night and day, dew point tends to change more slowly, so while the temperature may drop at night, a muggy day is typically followed by a muggy night. Searcy experiences extreme seasonal variation in the perceived humidity. The muggier period of the year lasts for 4.7 months, from May 9 to September 30, during which time the comfort level is muggy, oppressive, or miserable at least 22% of the time. The muggiest day of the year is July 22, with muggy conditions 87% of the time. The least muggy day of the year is January 13, when muggy conditions are essentially unheard of. Humidity Comfort Levels The percentage of time spent at various humidity comfort levels, categorized by dew point: dry < 55°F < comfortable < 60°F < humid < 65°F < muggy < 70°F < oppressive < 75°F < miserable. Wind This section discusses the wide-area hourly average wind vector (speed and direction) at 10 meters above the ground. The wind experienced at any given location is highly dependent on local topography and other factors, and instantaneous wind speed and direction vary more widely than hourly averages. The average hourly wind speed in Searcy experiences significant seasonal variation over the course of the year. The windier part of the year lasts for 7.0 months, from October 18 to May 20, with average wind speeds of more than 6.7 miles per hour. The windiest day of the year is March 23, with an average hourly wind speed of 8.6 miles per hour. The calmer time of year lasts for 5.0 months, from May 20 to October 18. The calmest day of the year is July 28, with an average hourly wind speed of 4.9 miles per hour. Average Wind Speed The average of mean hourly wind speeds (dark gray line), with 25th to 75th and 10th to 90th percentile bands. The predominant average hourly wind direction in Searcy varies throughout the year. The wind is most often from the south for 5.8 months, from February 25 to August 19 and for 2.5 months, from October 1 to December 17, with a peak percentage of 46% on May 18. The wind is most often from the east for 1.2 months, from August 19 to September 25, with a peak percentage of 36% on September 6. The wind is most often from the north for 6.0 days, from September 25 to October 1 and for 2.3 months, from December 17 to February 25, with a peak percentage of 31% on September 30. Wind Direction The percentage of hours in which the mean wind direction is from each of the four cardinal wind directions (north, east, south, and west), excluding hours in which the mean wind speed is less than 1 mph. The lightly tinted areas at the boundaries are the percentage of hours spent in the implied intermediate directions (northeast, southeast, southwest, and northwest). Best Time of Year to Visit To characterize how pleasant the weather is in Searcy throughout the year, we compute two travel scores. The tourism score favors clear, rainless days with perceived temperatures between 65°F and 80°F. Based on this score, the best times of year to visit Searcy for general outdoor tourist activities are from early May to early June and from mid August to early October, with a peak score in the third week of September. Tourism Score The tourism score (filled area), and its constituents: the temperature score (red line), the cloud cover score (blue line), and the precipitation score (green line). The beach/pool score favors clear, rainless days with perceived temperatures between 75°F and 90°F. Based on this score, the best time of year to visit Searcy for hot-weather activities is from early June to mid September, with a peak score in the first week of July. Beach/Pool Score The beach/pool score (filled area), and its constituents: the temperature score (red line), the cloud cover score (blue line), and the precipitation score (green line). Methodology For each hour between 8:00 AM and 9:00 PM of each day in the analysis period (1980 to 2016), independent scores are computed for perceived temperature, cloud cover, and total precipitation. Those scores are combined into a single hourly composite score, which is then aggregated into days, averaged over all the years in the analysis period, and smoothed. Our cloud cover score is 10 for fully clear skies, falling linearly to 9 for mostly clear skies, and to 1 for fully overcast skies. Our precipitation score, which is based on the three-hour precipitation centered on the hour in question, is 10 for no precipitation, falling linearly to 9 for trace precipitation, and to 0 for 0.04 inches of precipitation or more. Our tourism temperature score is 0 for perceived temperatures below 50°F, rising linearly to 9 for 65°F, to 10 for 75°F, falling linearly to 9 for 80°F, and to 1 for 90°F or hotter. Our beach/pool temperature score is 0 for perceived temperatures below 65°F, rising linearly to 9 for 75°F, to 10 for 82°F, falling linearly to 9 for 90°F, and to 1 for 100°F or hotter. Growing Season Definitions of the growing season vary throughout the world, but for the purposes of this report, we define it as the longest continuous period of non-freezing temperatures (≥ 32°F) in the year (the calendar year in the Northern Hemisphere, or from July 1 until June 30 in the Southern Hemisphere). The growing season in Searcy typically lasts for 7.5 months ( 230 days ), from around March 22 to around November 7, rarely starting before February 27 or after April 13, and rarely ending before October 19 or after November 27. Time Spent in Various Temperature Bands and the Growing Season The percentage of time spent in various temperature bands: frigid < 15°F < freezing < 32°F < very cold < 45°F < cold < 55°F < cool < 65°F < comfortable < 75°F < warm < 85°F < hot < 95°F < sweltering. The black line is the percentage chance that a given day is within the growing season. Growing degree days are a measure of yearly heat accumulation used to predict plant and animal development, and defined as the integral of warmth above a base temperature, discarding any excess above a maximum temperature. In this report, we use a base of 50°F and a cap of 86°F. Based on growing degree days alone, the first spring blooms in Searcy should appear around February 21, only rarely appearing before February 4 or after March 11. Growing Degree Days The average growing degree days accumulated over the course of the year, with 25th to 75th and 10th to 90th percentile bands. Solar Energy This section discusses the total daily incident shortwave solar energy reaching the surface of the ground over a wide area, taking full account of seasonal variations in the length of the day, the elevation of the Sun above the horizon, and absorption by clouds and other atmospheric constituents. Shortwave radiation includes visible light and ultraviolet radiation. The average daily incident shortwave solar energy experiences significant seasonal variation over the course of the year. The brighter period of the year lasts for 4.5 months, from April 14 to August 30, with an average daily incident shortwave energy per square meter above 5.9 k Wh. The brightest day of the year is July 12, with an average of 6.8 k Wh. The darker period of the year lasts for 2.9 months, from November 9 to February 6, with an average daily incident shortwave energy per square meter below 3.3 k Wh. The darkest day of the year is December 23, with an average of 2.4 k Wh. Average Daily Incident Shortwave Solar Energy The average daily shortwave solar energy reaching the ground per square meter (orange line), with 25th to 75th and 10th to 90th percentile bands. Topography For the purposes of this report, the geographical coordinates of Searcy are 35.251 deg latitude, -91.736 deg longitude, and 256 ft elevation. The topography within 2 miles of Searcy contains only modest variations in elevation, with a maximum elevation change of 233 feet and an average elevation above sea level of 257 feet. Within 10 miles contains only modest variations in elevation ( 528 feet ). Within 50 miles contains significant variations in elevation ( 1,444 feet ). The area within 2 miles of Searcy is covered by artificial surfaces ( 66%) and cropland ( 27% ), within 10 miles by cropland ( 63%) and trees ( 21% ), and within 50 miles by cropland ( 58%) and trees ( 29% ). Data Sources This report illustrates the typical weather in Searcy, based on a statistical analysis of historical hourly weather reports and model reconstructions from January 1, 1980 to December 31, 2016. Temperature and Dew Point There are 4 weather stations near enough to contribute to our estimation of the temperature and dew point in Searcy. For each station, the records are corrected for the elevation difference between that station and Searcy according to the International Standard Atmosphere, and by the relative change present in the MERRA-2 satellite-era reanalysis between the two locations. The estimated value at Searcy is computed as the weighted average of the individual contributions from each station, with weights proportional to the inverse of the distance between Searcy and a given station. The stations contributing to this reconstruction are: Searcy Municipal Airport (95%, 4.3 kilometers, south); Batesville Regional Airport (2.1%, 54 kilometers, north); Newport Municipal Airport (1.5%, 67 kilometers, northeast); and Clinton Municipal Airport (1.3%, 76 kilometers, northwest). Other Data All data relating to the Sun's position (e.g., sunrise and sunset) are computed using astronomical formulas from the book, Astronomical Tables of the Sun, Moon and Planets, by Jean Meeus. All other weather data, including cloud cover, precipitation, wind speed and direction, and solar flux, come from NASA's MERRA-2 Modern-Era Retrospective Analysis. This reanalysis combines a variety of wide-area measurements in a state-of-the-art global meteorological model to reconstruct the hourly history of weather throughout the world on a 50-kilometer grid. Land Use data comes from the Global Land Cover SHARE database, published by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations. Elevation data comes from the Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM), published by NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory. Names, locations, and time zones of places and some airports come from the Geo Names Geographical Database. Time zones for aiports and weather stations are provided by Ask Geo.com.

We assume no responsibility for any decisions made on the basis of the content presented on this site. We draw particular cautious attention to our reliance on the MERRA-2 model-based reconstructions for a number of important data series. While having the tremendous advantages of temporal and spatial completeness, these reconstructions: (1) are based on computer models that may have model-based errors, (2) are coarsely sampled on a 50 km grid and are therefore unable to reconstruct the local variations of many microclimates, and (3) have particular difficulty with the weather in some coastal areas, especially small islands. We further caution that our travel scores are only as good as the data that underpin them, that weather conditions at any given location and time are unpredictable and variable, and that the definition of the scores reflects a particular set of preferences that may not agree with those of any particular reader.

what belongs in an affirmative action plan?

Affirmative action does not mandate ""quotas"" or extending preferences to any individual based on race, color, religion, gender, or national origin. What is an Affirmative Action Plan? An Affirmative Action Plan (AAP) contains statistical and narrative information. The statistical information includes: organizational profile, job group analysis, availability analysis, utilization analysis and personnel action analysis.

Affirmative Action Planning

"Affirmative Action Planning About OHSU's Affirmative Action & Equal Opportunity department (AAEO) produces OHSU's Affirmative Action Plan (AAP) annually. The AAP provides analysis identifying areas of under-representation of females and minorities in OHSU's workforce. Links on the right side of this page include the current AAP placement goals for the university and for each OHSU mission. Placement goal data are provided in two formats: Links under AAP Placement Goals show areas of underrepresentation by job group. Links under AAP Placement Goal Lookup by Job Title drill down to the job title level. OHSU Employees at a Glance: What is Affirmative Action? Affirmative action is the good faith obligation all federal contractors have to abide by an equal opportunity policy and regulations. Organizations analyze their workforce to access possible underutilization of women and minorities. Organizations develop a plan of action to eliminate underutilization and make good faith efforts to execute that plan. Federal and state employment laws prohibit discrimination against individuals who fall into certain protected classes. These protected classes include, but are not limited to: age, disabilities, gender, marital status, national origin, race, religion, and veteran status. Affirmative action requires organizations such as OHSU to actively promote equal opportunity and eliminate discrimination. The purpose of affirmative action in employment is to establish fair access to employment opportunities and to create a work community that is an accurate reflection of the demographics of the qualified workforce.

The narrative information includes: President's Message, identification of problem areas, action-oriented programs and internal audit and reporting systems. The AAP is designed to identify areas of under-representation by minority groups so the under-representation can be remedied. OHSU develops and executes action-oriented programs designed to correct any problem areas identified and to attain established goals and objectives. OHSU makes good faith efforts to remove identified barriers, expand employment opportunities and produce measurable results.
