And Bette Midler Couldn’t Cope  😍😊

Hillary Clinton has received a standing ovation from her devoted fans while out on the town for the Broadway production of Hello, Dolly!
The audience at the Schubert Theatre in Manhattan gave an unrestrained cheer on Thursday night as they spotted the Clinton entourage entering and taking prime seats in Orchestra Level.
‘You can still be 46!’ one fan shouted over the roar of applause, referring to hopes for another Clinton presidential bid.  
Star Bette Midler greeted Clinton backstage during intermission, where the former Democrat candidate delivered an impromptu address to the cast and crew.

Not in attendance was Bill Clinton, who was spotted in Amsterdam on Friday giving an address to the 22nd International AIDS Conference.
After the election Hillary Clinton often received standing ovations as she went to Broadway plays. Even now, a year-and-a-half later, the shine hasn’t worn off. When she finally went to see Hello Dolly - she originally had tickets for an April 2017 performance but had to miss it as she was being honored by the LGBT Center - she was warmly received by both the audience and the cast.

Before the show she stood up from her seat and her fellow audience members chanted her name and gave her a standing ovation. 
After the show she met the cast and posed with star Bette Midler. (Midler recently took the role of Dolly Levi over from Bernadette Peters, after Peters took over when Midler originally left the production. Confused yet?)

Midler was thrilled with the Hillary Clinton Hello Dolly appearance, writing on Twitter, “Hillary Clinton came to Hello Dolly tonight! What a thrill! The crowd stood, clapped and chanted her name until the lights went down. It made us all unbelievably happy to see her.”

Though there probably won’t be another Hillary Clinton Hello Dolly double-header, if you want to see the show, you’d better hurry. The current run of Hello Dolly closes Aug. 25.

Clinton tweeted her thanks to the cast and crew “for a joyful night.”

Hillary Clinton received a rapturous reception when she showed up to watch Broadway musical “Hello, Dolly!” in New York City on Thursday.
Audience members at Manhattan’s Shubert Theatre “stood, clapped and chanted” the former Secretary of State’s name “until the lights went down,” the show’s star, actress and singer-songwriter Bette Midler, revealed on Twitter.
Midler was also pretty excited, describing Clinton’s visit as “a thrill” that “made us all unbelievably happy to see her.”
Clinton later met with the show’s cast, and ended up giving them a backstage pep talk about registering to vote.
“Tell your friends to tell their families and friends in every state to register,” said Clinton, per an Instagram post from Midler. “And make sure they have not been purged from the rolls before they get there to cast their ballot.”
Multiple members of the public have shared footage of Clinton receiving the standing ovation upon entering the auditorium

You need some joy in your life?
You down in the dumps about the news?

Well, have I got a treat for you! Broadway super-fan Hillary Clinton was finally able to score tickets to Hello, Dolly! last night and according to the show’s inimitable star, Bette Midler, the political icon stole the show.
People applauding Hillary Clinton just for being is the second best thing on Broadway next to Head Over Heels. Oh my God, imagine if Hillary Clinton went to Head Over Heels! Sorry, I have to lie down.
After the show, Clinton met with the cast backstage, took the iconic photo that is now my new home address and retirement community and then kiki’d with Bette

Ways to Treat Sunburns

https://78.media.tumblr.com/eae4c66ee04acafc29166a0321bb9d14/tumblr_pc8clivTlb1tjxoi0o1_640.gif
5 Ways to Treat Sunburns
Tips from A Dermatologist




1. Act Fast to Cool It Down
If you’re near a cold pool, lake or ocean, take a quick dip to cool your skin, but only for a few seconds so you don’t prolong your exposure. Then cover up and get out of the sun immediately. Continue to cool the burn with cold compresses. You can use ice to make ice water for a cold compress, but don’t apply ice directly to the sunburn. Or take a cool shower or bath, but not for too long, which can be drying, and avoid harsh soap, which might irritate the skin even more.

2. Moisturize While Skin Is Damp
While skin is still damp, use a gentle moisturizing lotion (but not petroleum or oil-based ointments, which may trap the heat and make the burn worse). Repeat to keep burned or peeling skin moist over the next few days.

3. Decrease the Inflammation
At the first sign of sunburn, taking a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), such as ibuprofen, naproxen or aspirin, can help with discomfort and inflammation, says Dr. Brackeen, who practices at the Skin Cancer Institute in Lubbock, Texas. You can continue with the NSAIDs as directed till the burn feels better. You can also use a 1 percent over-the-counter cortisone cream as directed for a few days to help calm redness and swelling. Aloe vera may also soothe mild burns and is generally considered safe. Wear loose, soft, breathable clothing to avoid further skin irritation, and stay out of the sun.

4. Replenish Your Fluids
Burns draw fluid to the skin’s surface and away from the rest of the body, so you may become dehydrated, explains Dr. Brackeen. It’s important to rehydrate by drinking extra liquids, including water and sports drinks that help to replenish electrolytes, immediately and while your skin heals.

5. See a Doctor If …
You should seek medical help if you or a child has severe blistering over a large portion of the body, has a fever and chills, or is woozy or confused. Don’t scratch or pop blisters, which can lead to infection. Signs of infection include red streaks or oozing pus.

Bottom line:
Your skin will heal, but real damage has been done. “Repeat sunburns put you at a substantial risk for skin cancer and premature skin aging, and I want people to ‘learn from the burn,’” Dr. Brackeen says.
Remember how bad this sunburn felt, then commit to protecting yourself from the sun every day, all year long.

Sharks Love To Be Petted 😊 🦈

Sharks Love To Be Petted
🦈  They're Like Dogs 🦈 
https://68.media.tumblr.com/9672c05c174a64459e6c320774b352ed/tumblr_ot0dqbRKll1uoh1aio6_500.gif

“Love” and “affection” are terms not commonly used to describe encounters with large sharks, but they’re used repeatedly by Jim Abernethy to narrate his recent get-together with a large tiger shark known as Tarantino.
The special reunion at Tiger Beach in the Bahamas was videotaped and footage shows Tarantino swimming into the arms of Abernethy, and seeming to crave his caresses much like an affectionate dog craves those of its owner after a prolonged absence. As Abernethy and the shark are swept down current, he returns to the camera and Tarantino follows, again swimming into his arms. This happens twice in the footage.
“I could tell she had missed it,” Abernethy says of an apex predator he refers to as an “old friend.”
To be sure, Tiger Beach is a special place, known as a destination where close encounters can be enjoyed in what many consider to be a relatively safe environment.


The predators are fed during commercial dive operations, and many distinctive sharks have been given names.
Veteran divers such as Abernethy, who runs Jim Abernethy’s Scuba Adventures, claim to have developed special relationships with some of those sharks.

🦈 
Though there are bound to be critics of people “tempting fate” with such close interactions, Abernethy, who was once bitten by a lemon shark, was hoping his footage would send a message.
“I wish there was some way that I could get the world to see what these beautiful creatures are really like,” he says, “so we could end the needless slaughter and keep our oceans healthy, not only for them but for our own existence on the planet.”

This Shark Comes To Cuddle With Him 
Whenever He Goes Diving 
For The Last 7 Years
Meet Rick Anderson, an Australian man who calls a female Port Jackson shark his friend, saying she comes to cuddle with him whenever she sees him. “I started playing with her about seven years ago when she was just a pup about 6 inches long,” Anderson told The Dodo. “I approached her carefully so as not to spook her, then began to gently pat her. Once she got used to me, I would cradle her in my hand and talk soothingly to her through my regulator.”

The man, who has been scuba diving for 27 years and runs a dive school, added: “Over the following seasons, she’d recognize me and would swim up to me for a pat and cuddle. She soon got used to me - to the point where she will swim up to me when I’m going past, and tap me on the legs until I hold my arms out for her to lay on for a cuddle.”

“Most divers seeing this for the first time can’t believe it,” he added. “I don’t feed her or any of the other sharks I play with - I basically treat them like I would a dog.”

It's an adorable friendship and, if you look past her rows of razor-like teeth, this friendly shark is almost cute.

Great Tips For Survival at Sea 😂💦

💦😂 8 Great Tips 😂💦
For Survival at Sea

Most of us adore beach resorts and go to one of the large saltwater bodies at least once a year.
However, we shouldn’t forget that the sea is as attractive as it is wayward. We at Bright Side wondered how a person who happened to be in the open sea should behave.

It turns out there are several rules that aren’t at all difficult to remember.
