Are you dealing with a chronically dry and bleeding nose, and not just during the dryness of winter? Do you have recurring sores inside your nose? Do you have whiteheads on the outside of your nose that seem to correspond to sore areas inside your nose? That was me. Let me tell you a story of how I found a cure that worked for me.

You must take responsibility for the results or complications if your following this or any other course of self-treatment.

Therefore there is no compelling reason to quote the word "For" at the beginning of Ephesians 2:8. It would be like walking up to an acquaintance and saying, "That's why you'll never have any real long-lasting friendships" and then walking off. It makes no sense to start with "For", just for the sake of starting the quot

UPDATE: As of Dec 2018, Google has released an update to Chrome OS that includes the native ability to connect to SMB file shares like a network hard drive. However, this feature is wholly undocumented  and so it's up to you to figure out how to get your network hard drive set up. I had mixed results. No longer do we need to install the Chrome extension "Network File Share for Chrome OS" and put up with its frequent time-outs. We can use Google Chrome OS' new built-in "SMB File Share" service. Set up To mount a network-accessible SMB file share on a Chromebook, do this: 1. Go to the Files app and click on the three dots in the upper right-hand corner, and select "Add New Service". 2. Select "SMB File Share" 3. Fill in the 4 fields, which are "File share URL", "Display Name (Optional)", "Username", and "Password". Filling in the fields Let's break down all 4 of these f
