Tonya Lee Williams about the 12th Annual ReelWorld Film Festival

Canadian actress Tonya Lee Williams

Canadian actress Tonya Lee Williams, Founder and Executive Director of ReelWorld Film Festival, welcomes everybody to the 12th Annual ReelWorld Film Festival, which is currently taking place in Toronto.

A message from Tonya Lee Williams:

“For many the global financial crisis has severely impacted their lives. For many filmmakers this is not the case. The independent filmmakers this is not the case. The independent filmmaker has always lived in financial crisis. They have already tightened their belts, and lived within their means. They have frugal lives, and make conservative fiscally prudent choices daily.

They run their movie sets like countries. They handle impossible budgets, intercede in conflicts, clothe, feed and serve the needs of their subjects.

Their sheer will and tenacity make the impossible, possible. They funnel fragmented chaos through the lens of a camera and allow it to breath onto the screen, bringing us real insight and a truly magical experience. They do all this for us.

When you think of voting for a President or Prime-Minister you would do well to vote for an independent filmmaker!

I thank all our sponsors and partners who continue to support the vision of ReelWorld. I thank our Board of Directors who give ReelWorld such strong direction. I thank our staff and volunteers who give their all to make this event happen. And of course I thank the filmmakers, their crews, screenwriters, production staff and actors without whom this festival would never exist.

Have a great festival!

Tonya”

Colgate Total Pro Gum Health, sprijin contra problemelor gingivale

Noul sistem de ingrijire orala Colgate Total Pro Gum Health reprezinta solutia cea mai eficienta pentru prevenirea si ameliorarea problemelor gingivale. Studiile arata ca 3 din 4 persoane* ar putea suferi de afectiuni gingivale, insa multe dintre acestea nu cunosc problemele cu care se confrunta si consecinţele lor, ce pot duce chiar la pierderea definitiva a dintilor. Pentru a nu deveni una dintre aceste persoane, utilizarea noului sistem de produse Colgate Total Pro Gum Health este solutia optima.

Sistemul Colgate Total Pro Gum Health este un instrument complet pentru ingrijirea gingiei care ajuta la combaterea placii dentare si la pastrarea sanatatii orale. Controlul placii bacteriene este cel mai bun mod de a evita problemele gingivale.

Sistemul Colgate Total Pro Gum Health, ce mentine sanatatea gingiilor, va pune la dispozitie o pasta de dinti, o apa de gura, o periuta de dinti cu un design special si ata dentara. Pasta de dinti cu tehnologia Tricolsan/Copolimer asigura protectia gingivala, eliminand bacteriile si reducand sangerarea gingiilor cu pana la 88%. Beneficiile acestei paste de dinti au fost confirmate de rezultatele a numeroase studii clinice si de laborator, care constituie in acest moment cea mai dezvoltata documentatie stiintifica atribuita unui astfel de produs. De asemenea, formula sa protejeaza si impotriva celorlalte probleme dentare uzuale, cum ar fi cariile dentare, depunerea tartrului sau colorarea smaltului.

Apa de gura pentru uz zilnic, ce are o formula fara alcool, contribuie la controlul suplimentar al placii dentare. In plus, aceasta asigura si o respiratie proaspata si placuta. Periuta de dinti este special conceputa pentru a curata chiar si zonele greu accesibile, in timp ce maseaza delicat gingiile, datorita configuratiei speciale a portiunii active. Ata dentara completeaza sistemul de produse, ajutand la indepartarea zilnica a bacteriilor din spatiile interdentare.

Problemele gingivale va pot afecta tesuturile moi si partile osoase ce inconjoara si sustin dintii. Atunci cand periajul dentar nu se face corect, placa dentara, care se formeaza in permanenta pe suprafetele dentare, nu mai este indepartata in mod corespunzator, generand inflamatia gingiei. Aceasta poarta numele de gingivita si se manifesta in principal prin sangerare gingivala. Netratata, ea se poate transforma in parodontita, o afectiune grava ce afecteaza dintii la nivel structural, ducand chiar la pierderea lor.

Acordati atentie semnelor timpurii de inflamatie gingivala si luati masuri inca de la prima sangerare!

Gingivita este complet reversibila prin adoptarea unui regim de igiena orala corect si complet, care sa asigure controlul eficient al placii dentare. Acum puteti preveni si elimina eficient sursa inflamatiei din cavitatea bucala cu ajutorul sistemului de produse Colgate Total Pro Gum Health, beneficiind de protectie antibacteriana de durata de pana la 12 ore.

“Daca acum un an am reusit sa aducem un produs inovator pe piata din Romania, anul acesta ne-am propus sa marcam o alta premiera si sa anuntam o serie de statistici care nu au fost realizate pana acum doar pentru romani. Astfel, ne dorim sa crestem gradul de informare asupra acestei afectiuni in Romania si sa-i determinam pe oameni sa-i acorde atentia cuvenita, prevenind-o sau tratand-o. Imi doresc ca din ce in ce mai multi romani sa acorde o atentie mai mare modului in care isi concept mesele zilnice sis a isi infrumuseteze viata pe cat posibil cu energii positive:. Subliniaza Amira Syoufi, Country Manager York Test in Romania.

Statisticile York Test au mai aratat ca o persoana prezinta, in medie, intoleranta la 4 alimente, cele mai frecvente fiind drojdia, albusul de ou si laptele de vaca.

York Test este present in Romania din luna martie a anului trecut, cand a fost lansat de catre Gaya Health Services. York Test s-a pozitionat in Romania ca fiind o clinica boutique, ce acorda timp si atentie deosebita fiecarui client in parte. Pana acum, York Test a dezvoltat parteneriate cu furnizori medicali de top precum Regina Maria, Medsana, Synevo si reteaua de farmacii Sensiblu, pentru a putea extinde serviciile de consultanta oferite clientilor sai.
