You have to realize it's going to be a long process and that you'll work on things slowly, one at a time. Haruki Murakami

The Vampire (Book 2), by Sandrine Genier
$ 19.95
"It is time to drop any illusion of innocence…" A tumultuous year has passed and life for Jason Sterling has become a series of new discoveries about Augere's past and his Vampire nature, while learning fascinating and disturbing details regarding previous assistants. Just as it appears his relationship with Augere is stable, a seemingly simple request causes unforeseen problems between them, and sets in motion events which ultimately reveal both long-hidden and recent secrets. The drama plays out against a backdrop of family strife, betrayals, mistrust and uncertain futures for all those who are part of the Vampire's close realm. As Jason learns more about advantages as well as dangers inherent in his role as assistant it appears that dire consequences await anyone who dares to go against the Vampire. But Jason suspects that when it comes to Augere, no one is truly safe. Matters become even more complicated when a tragedy occurs that resonates with Jason on a personal level and challenges his conscience, casting a shadow over his future with Augere. A character driven story about friendship, loyalty, obsession and its consequences within the context of life with a supernatural being.

The shady areas about our residences are pleasant, but often they are bare spots devoid of flowering plants. I also study somewhere that tying a piece of clothes with your scent on it to a fence in the garden might help, if he smells it he knows that he is close to his property (not positive how true this is though) It is feasible your cat is looking for your old property and has just got completely lost so he may possibly have wandered a tiny bit. Folks who attend home and garden shows leave with a repertoire of ideas for fixing up their properties and gardens. There are a handful of how-to videos for constructing fairy homes as nicely as furnishings for your garden.
The neighbours simply let their pets roam and I am or was the only individual who dug the garden often for veggies, and so forth. Adams was a profitable merchant with a prominent common store in downtown Castine. It is slurped up by the plants, shrubs and trees planted in the soils along the edges of the rain garden. They have a mounding habit and with 3 inch blooms they will develop really a show. Sometimes a fruit tree that does not get adequate chill hours will create a lot of fruit. The possibilities are endless for where you can find your Fairy Garden it seems.
I've removed a lot of grass in this new garden already, but largely in the back yard. Thanks to Standard Kitchens , official sponsor of the West Michigan Property & Garden Show Cooking Stage! More than the next few months, you will get to get pleasure from tending your garden and watching these tiny seedlings and transplants grow into gorgeous, healthy plants. Heirloom Roses in June are element of what you would count on to see in this globe class rose garden. Save Money – Store bought manufactured fertilizers price income which actually adds up more than time. But I have to admit your classic varieties inspire planting an English style flower garden.
If your shed is tucked correct in the corner of your garden and close to the neighbours boundaries then most likely the small gap amongst shed and boundaries are donated to the world of wildlife and so be it. It grows quite happily at the edge of the lawn, and has had lots of baby plantlets – sadly I never think any of them survived becoming transplanted to other spots in the garden. Thanks mistyhorizon2003, sounds like you have had a busy day in the garden yourself.
Numerous people think they need to send their soil away to get it tested for ph. Other folks acquire kits at garden provide shops. Our Television remote once disappeared for 3 days, until we ultimately located it buried in a hole in the garden. These varieties of gardens are my absolute favorites,and I like most:) That very first photo actually reminds me of my mother's garden. If you like to work in the garden then concentrate on that but if you are really excellent at maybe flowers and styling flower décor then you might want to concentrate on their flowers and their vases. Typically the garden was surrounded by a protective enclosure such as a rock wall, fence or hedge.

text: When musicians first laid eyes on the iPad, they immediately recognized its huge potential as a music-making machine. The versatility of the touchscreen quickly gave rise to a bevy of synths, drum machines, multitrack recording apps and otherworldly, touch-sensitive instruments. And while making music on the iPad is still mostly about the apps -- Animoog, Korg iElectribe, NodeBeat, GarageBand, Sunrizer, JazzMutant Lemur -- the tablet becomes even more useful if you can plug other stuff into it. At first, we only had the ability to plug in guitars and microphones to record songs. But now, ever since Apple added support for the CoreMIDI framework to iOS and introduced the Camera Connection Kit, we can plug in a variety of keyboards, drum pads and other hardware to control our apps. Instead of tapping the touchscreen to make a noise, you can play a chord, press a key or twist a knob. Here's our guide to this season's latest gear for iPad musicians. iPad Camera Connection Kit, $30 In order to use most music-making devices with an iPad, you've got to get one of these. Apple's $30 device (the square-ish white adapter in the photos above and below) essentially turns the iPad's dock connector into a USB port. The company calls it a "Camera Connection Kit" because that's what most consumers are going to use it for. But musicians can use it for much more than holiday snaps. USB keyboards, hardware controllers, preamps, headphones, digital-to-analog converters -- this little dongle is your lifeline to hundreds of audio toys. Photos by Ariel Zambelich/WirediConnect MIDI $180 When Apple's CoreMIDI framework first showed up in iOS in late 2010, it gave iPads the ability to connect to MIDI instruments. So now you can plug all of your favorite MIDI keyboards, drum pads, MIDI guitars or controllers into your iPad and use those instruments to play the sounds generated by your iOS apps. Of course, to do this, you'll need a piece of MIDI connection hardware to hook up your gear. In our opinion, your best bet is the iConnect MIDI. It's a tiny I/O box with a ton of versatility. It has traditional 5-pin DIN MIDI ports (two inputs and two outputs) as well as two mini-USB ports and a full-sized USB host port that can accept a USB hub. In all, you can connect up to eight devices using the USB hub port. A wall wart is required -- all that device power has to come from somewhere -- but the iConnect MIDI has very low latency and can connect just about any device to any app that supports CoreMIDI.Avid M-Audio Keystation Mini 32, $80 There are dozens of keyboard controllers you can use to drive a music app running on your iPad. One standout from the latest crop of controllers is the Keystation Mini 32 from M-Audio. Most controllers have one or two octaves, but this one has two and a half, for a total of 32 keys. And yet it's still very compact -- about 17 inches long, so it will fit in a laptop bag or a backpack easily. It draws all the power it needs from the iPad using the Camera Connection Kit, adding to its portability. Actually, the Keystation Mini is so small, the keys can be a little tricky to play properly. But most users will be able to comfortably use both hands to play more complicated pieces given a little practice. The knob and three of the buttons on the left edge are programmable, as is the key velocity, so the Keystation Mini can double as a surprisingly accurate drum machine controller.Korg nanoPad2, $60 The new NanoSeries2 of controllers from Korg gives you a few more options for controlling iPad apps. Our favorite is the nanoPad2, a 16-pad controller that's great for triggering drums or samples. Riding shotgun is an X-Y pad similar to what's found on Korg's Kaossilator hardware and its iKaossilator app for iOS -- Use the touchpad to layer on effects and filters as you tap out beats, notes or samples with other hand, or use it to play pre-programmed, multi-note phrases. As with the other controllers in Korg's nanoSeries2 line, the nanoKey2 and the nanoKontrol2, the nanoPad2 hooks into the iPad via a Camera Connection Kit. But Korg recommends also running a powered USB hub if you're going to be using its nanoSeries2 controllers for "an extended period of time."Alesis iO Dock, $200 If you're a true multi-instrumentalist (and maybe you sing a little as well) the Alesis iO Dock is a decent choice for plugging a variety of gear into your iPad. There are a plethora of inputs -- quarter-inch inputs for guitars, basses and other electric instruments, powered XLR inputs microphones, and both USB and 5-pin MIDI interfaces for digital keyboards and controller hardware. There are also stereo outputs for connecting to a mixer or PA system, and a headphone jack with a separate volume control. The whole assembly is wedge-shaped, and your iPad snaps onto the top of the wedge so it sits tipped toward you. It's a useful piece of hardware for producing tracks in a studio, but it's made of cheap plastic, so you'll have to treat it gently if you intend to gig with it. Also, it requires an AC adapter at all times. Another note: Alesis designed the iO Dock for use with the first iPad. If you have an iPad 2, be sure to get the version that ships with the plastic shim so your iPad 2 sits properly inside the dock. If there isn't a shim in the box, Alesis will mail one to you -- or you could just fashion your own.CEntrance AxePort Pro, $150 Recording some tracks on your iPad? Rather than rely on a cheap accessory to plug in your instrument, take a step up to the AxePort Pro. Inside this rather nondescript aluminum tube lies a pro-grade, 24-bit/96 kHz preamp. Plug in your guitar, bass or pretty much any electric instrument and let the preamp sweeten up your tone (The company also makes a similar microphone preamp). We were able to get a warm, natural tone out of a variety of instruments. We used the AxePort to record some tracks to GarageBand, and it did wonders to improve the sound of some of GarageBand's built-in effects (especially on the bass). And a bonus: The AxePort Pro doubles as a headphone amp, so you can monitor your session without any latency problems. One caveat -- it's a USB device, and it connects to the iPad using the USB Camera Connection Kit. But Apple's little white dongle doesn't provide enough power to run the AxePort Pro's preamp, so you have to use a powered USB hub (or some other powered USB device, like the iConnect MIDI) in between the iPad connector and the AxePort Pro to provide power. You can also use a portable USB juice pack. If you use it with a regular laptop or desktop, no additional power source should be needed.Apogee Jam, $100 Here's another dongle made for guitarists and bassists, a dead simple interface for connecting to GarageBand, Logic or any iOS app. The Apogee Jam doesn't have the sweet-sounding preamp or the on-board headphone amp of the AxePort Pro, but it's $50 cheaper and simpler to use. It doesn't require any external power or a Camera Connection Kit -- all of the cables you need come in the box. The controls are very simple, too. There's a gain control knob on the side, and a single status LED that doubles as a peak indicator.AmpliTube iRig, $40 and up This little device from IK Multimedia does more than just connect your guitar to your iPad -- it also puts the iPad to use as a virtual guitar amp and effects station. The iRig hardware interface is a simple box that plugs into the iPad's headphone jack. After connecting your guitar and a pair of headphones, fire up the AmpliTube app to build a virtual rig of amps, speaker cabinets and effects. The app also comes with an 8-track recording studio that's fairly easy to use. The iRig is $40, the AmpliTube app is $20, and the fancier effects are available as in-app purchases. The selection of available amps and effects is vast, but buy more than a few (each priced at $3 and up) and things can get pretty expensive. However, the setup has a very low latency and the sound is great, especially the digital models of the classic tube amps. Also, the bass sounds are solid -- much better than we expected from an iPad app. If you're more Keith Jarrett than Keith Richards, iRig also makes a MIDI interface.DigiTech iPB-10, $480 Plug-and-play interfaces for guitarists like the iRig are great for practicing or tracking demos. But when it comes to playing live, the iPad tool we most enjoyed was the Digitech iPB-10 programmable pedalboard. It's a big, brawny floor unit, but the brains are supplied by your iPad, which is held in place with a big bracket on top (so keep your beer out of splash range). Using the free iOS app (iTunes link), you can design a virtual rig -- choose from dozens of amps and cabinets, and over 80 individual effects -- and map individual settings and sounds to each of the 10 footswitches. You can save entire banks of effects and sounds (up to 100 fully-customized virtual rigs) and swap between pedalboard settings with just a few on-screen taps. Setting it up is easy, and configuring the pedals is dead simple. But the system is rather impractical if your tunes require a lot of mid-song knob twisting -- bending over to swipe and pinch at the screen may make you miss the tactile feel of traditional pedals (though you can also loop in any of your existing effects). It's especially well-suited for set-it-and-forget-it players, and the expression pedal gives you some hands-free control. Plus, every guitarist will have fun geeking out by building rig designs ranging from the practical to the extra-whacky.See Also:- Moog Debuts an iPad Synth From the Outer Limits9 iPad Music Apps to Rock Your WorldiElectribe KORGPlanetary iPad App Turns Your Music Into a Universe

Source: Compiled by Homecoming II Project 31 April 1990 from one or more of
the following: raw data from U.S. Government agency sources, correspondence
with POW/MIA families, published sources, interviews. Updated by the P.O.W.
SYNOPSIS: Frustrated by problems in negotiating a peace settlement, and
pressured by a Congress and public wanting an immediate end to American
involvement in Vietnam, President Nixon ordered the most concentrated air
offensive of the war - known as Linebacker II - in December 1972. During the
offensive, sometimes called the "Christmas bombings," 40,000 tons of bombs
were dropped, primarily over the area between Hanoi and Haiphong. White
House Press Secretary Ronald Ziegler said that the bombing would end only
when all U.S. POWs were released and an internationally recognized
cease-fire was in force.
In early December 1972, several men stationed at Utapao, Thailand sent
Christmas presents home and readied themselves for a few final runs they
would have to make before Christmas. They were looking forward to returning
to Thailand in time to see Bob Hope on December 22. They never saw Bob Hope,
and none of them returned for Christmas.
On December 22, a B52D crew consisting of Capt. Thomas W. Bennett, co-pilot;
LtCol. Gerald W. Alley; Capt. Peter P. Camerota, bombardier; 1Lt. Joseph B.
Copack, Jr., navigator; Capt. Peter J. Giroux, pilot; and MSgt. Louis E.
LeBlanc, tailgunner; departed Utapao on a bombing mission over Hanoi.
When the B52D was about 50 miles northwest of Hanoi, it was hit by Surface
to Air Missiles (SAM). Bennett called the mayday and manually ejected the
pilot, who had blacked out and then bailed out himself. The tailgunner later
reported that he observed in the bright moonlight that the entire crew of
six had deployed parachutes. Three of them, Camerota, Giroux and LeBlanc
were released from prisoner of war camps in Hanoi a few months later in the
general prisoner release of 1973. The U.S. was not expecting them. They had
not known that the three were being held prisoner. Alley, Copack and Bennett
were not released and remained Missing in Action.
During the month of December, 62 crewmembers of B52 aircraft were shot down
and captured or went missing. Of these 62, 33 men were released in 1973. The
remains of about a dozen more have been returned over the years, and the
rest are still missing. At least 10 of those missing survived to eject
safely. Where are they?
As reports mounted following the war convinced many authorities that
hundreds of Americans were still held captive in Southeast Asia, many
families wonder if their men were among those said to be still alive in
captivity, and are frustrated at inadequate efforts by the U.S. Government
to get information on their men.
On June 23, 1989, the U.S. announced that the Vietnamese had "discovered" the
remains of Gerald W. Alley and Joseph B. Copack and had sent them home at
last. For 17 years, Alley and Copack - alive or dead - were prisoners in
enemy hands. Their families at last know for certain that their sons are
dead. What they may never know, however, is how - and when - they died, and
if they knew that their country had abandoned them.
Gerald W. Alley was promoted to the rank of Colonel, Thomas W. Bennett was
promoted to the rank of Major and Joseph B. Copack was promoted to the rank
of Captain during the period they were maintained missing.

Dear Heart of Illinois POW/MIA Association,
I am sending you this copy of an article about my brother, Major Thomas
Waring "Buddy" Bennett, Jr. and myself which appeared in the St. Louis
Post- Dispatch on December 21, 1992. The article was written because the
22nd of December 1992 marked the 20th anniversary of Buddy's shoot
down/missing date and his 50th birthday. Moreover I wanted to put a face
and personal story to another mans name, another cross on the WALL,
another one of the 2,263 still unaccounted for in Southeast Asia. To
make this issue more personal to the American people so they will help
to bring our missing men home.
I would appreciate it if you would reprint the article in your
newsletter or magazine. I have obtained permission from the St. Louis
Post-Dispatch as long as you print under the article "reprinted with
permission from the St. Louis Post-Dispatch". If you do choose to have
the article appear in your periodical, would you please send me a copy.
Thank you so very much for working for and caring about our POWs and
Sincerely yours
Mrs. Bowen Bennett Johnson
P.S. I want to extend this special "Thank you" to your association. I
find your newsletters to be a wealth of information and support. If the
Senate Select Committee on POW/MIA Affairs doesn't get an extended
mandate I will be almost completely dependent on your newsletter to stay
abreast of everything happening. So once again let me thank all the fine
people of your organization for all their help and devotion. If I could
ever be of service to you, please just ask.

Christmas Calling For Brother's Keeper
by Harry Levins
Twenty Christmases ago, Bowen Bennett was a high school sophomore in
Natchez, Miss. One night just before the holiday, she heard her parents
talking at the door. She crept down the stairs and saw two men in Air
Force uniforms.
The men bore bad tidings. Her big brother, Air Force Capt. Thomas Waring
"Buddy" Bennett, Jr., was missing in action, shot down near Hanoi. A
missile had hit his B-52 in the early morning darkness of Dec. 22, 1972
--his 30th birthday.
Now, that high school sophomore is Bowen Johnson of Ballwin -- 35, a
wife, a dental hygienist. But the passage of two decades hasn't made
Christmas any easier. Next to the Christmas any easier. Next to the
Christmas wreath on her door in Ballwin rests a stained-glass POW/MIA
plaque. Beneath its silhouette of a POW's bowed head are the words "You
are not forgotten."
Be assured that Buddy Bennett is not forgotten, at least not in one sub-
division tract house in Ballwin.
His sister wears a POW/MIA sweat shirt. She wears three POW/MIA
bracelets; sharing her right wrist with the bracelets is a symoblic loop
of barbed wire, made from plastic.
The gospels for the Advent season speak of a voice crying in the
wilderness, and that's how Johnson hears herself and a few thousand
other American families. In their case, the wilderness bristles with
forgetfulnes, apathy and bureaucratic maneuvering.
Johnson entered that wilderness on Oct. 9, 1980, when the Air Force
changed her brother's status. Instead, he was KIA/BNR - killed in
action, body not recovered. That infuriated Johnson. It still does.
"They have no proof whatsoever," she says. Over a kitchen table teeming
with documents, letters and maps, she makes a case that her brother
ejected alive from the burning B-52.
The bomber carried six crewmen. Three came home from POW camps in 1973.
Fifteen years later, Vietnam returned the remains of two more. That
leaves her brother unaccounted for, just like 2,263 other American
Washington eventually classified almost all of them as killed in action,
just like Buddy Bennett. Johnson isn't buying it. She's not sure her
brother is alive. But until she gets hard evidence to the contrary,
she's holding out hope. Meanwhile, she's angry at the Vietnamese, and
she's REALLY angry at her own government.
Bowen Johnson is not a woman you want to have angry at you.
She writes letters, she makes phone calls, she buttonholes people. She's
determined to make sure that her brother Buddy is remembered -- and
that in some future war, other American families aren't left with a hole
in their hearts at Christmas.
At the very least, she wants to keep alive the Senate Select Committee
on POW/ MIA Affairs, now due to go out of business shortly after
Christmas. "We need every voice we can get," she says. "The government
won't listen to you if you're just a whisper."
Johnson doesn't whisper. She speaks in exclamation points and at length.
"It can consume a family member," she says, and it would be easy to
write her off as consumed, even obsessed.
Until her voice breaks, just once, as she talks about what a gentle bear
of a man her brother Buddy was.
"At Christmas, I feel good and bad," she says. "Good that it's Christ's
birthday. But the Christmas season has been tainted. It's not the same
as it was before." This one, at her brother's 50th birthday, will be
especially tough.
Even so, Merry Christmas, Bowen Johnson.
And hang in there.
On December 22, 1972, a B-52D Stratofortress (tail number 550061, call sign "Scarlet 3") with six crew members took part in a night strike mission against enemy targets in Hanoi, North Vietnam. During the mission, the aircraft was hit by an enemy surface-to-air missile (SAM) near the target area. The aircraft, damaged and on fire, descended and crashed in the vicinity of (GC) 48Q WJ 866 264. Search and recovery efforts were not possible because the crash site was in well-defended enemy territory. Three of the crew members survived, were captured by enemy forces, and eventually returned to U.S. custody. Two more were killed in the crash and their remains eventually accounted for, but the sixth crew member, the co-pilot, could not be recovered.
Captain Thomas Waring Bennett Jr., who entered the U.S. Air Force from Mississippi, served with the 22nd Bombardment Squadron (Heavy) and was the copilot of this Stratofortress at the time of its loss. Attempts to locate and identify his remains have been unsuccessful. Following the incident, the Air Force promoted Capt Bennett to the rank of Major (Maj). Today, Major Bennett is memorialized on the Courts of the Missing at the National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific.

A student asked me recently for examples of ethnographies in which the anthropologist 'had a bad time'. He observed that in all of the anthropological writings he has read, the anthropologists generally present themselves and their experiences positively.
I was stumped. The ethnography for the course, a survey of Canada's first peoples, is Robert Jarvenpa's Northern Passage. It is about the Han of the Yukon and the Chipewyan of the Northwest Territories. In it, Jarvenpa has a less-than-successful field experience as a young researcher among the Han. But, that experience is tempered by a good experience with the Chipewyan. The result is a trope: fieldwork as personal growth. And, that trope is perfect for an ethnography aimed at undergraduates learning about fieldwork.
All of this has me thinking about why examples of poor ethnographic experiences are hard to find. How about:
So, to you. Any examples of poor ethnographic research experiences in publication? Good ethographies describing less-than-successful field work? If not, why not?Sphere: Related Content

ebay 20 Piece Makeup Brush Set
To me it seems like everyone in the beauty world is obsessed with contouring and brushes, myself included. However, when it comes to buying different products and tools I firmly believe in sticking to a budget and finding a secret gem.
After browsing ebay for a little while I came cross these black makeup brushes that came in a set of 20 brushes. I thought for $8 why not give them a try. You have no idea how surprised I was to find out that these brushes are really nice. Shipping took exactly a week so that isn't too bad.
My number one pet peeve about brushes is shedding. It grosses me out to the fullest to have a little fiber or hair stuck to my face while I'm putting on my makeup. These brushes do not shed at all. I have been constantly pulling on them over the past few days and I've had no shedding.
The only thing I can say negative about these bushes is that the handle might not be durable in the long run. They are super light so just watch for that if you decide to try them out
Pros -
No shedding
No smells
Wash easily
Cons -
Light (handle might no be durable)

text: Hi Matz, If you are still considering to use '@_var' or '@__var' to create class private/local variables, are you open to the idea of simply making all instance variables private? The descendant classes then can access the instance variables using 'self.var', where the method 'var' can either be public or protected. The reason I ask is because it seems that you are considering things like 'abc[0]' which will return the "char" instead of the "fixnum" in 1.9, which may break a lot of codes. So although currently making all instance variables private will also break a lot of codes, probably the "transition" can be handled in the same way as the behavior change of 'abc[0]'. But first of course I want to know whether you think making all instance variables private is a good idea in the first place (ignoring the backward compatibility issue for now), especially from the object-oriented data hiding point of view, and in particular for doing large-scale software development. Regards, Bill ============================================================================ Hi, In message "Re: Thoughts on Ruby" on 02/11/03, "Gavin Sinclair" <gsinclair / soyabean.com.au> writes: (regarding the fact "abc"[0] being fixnum) |It's probably not intuitive to *anybody* (except perhaps Matz). However, I see |no particular justification for it being any other way, and in fact it's |changing in 1.7 isn't it? Anyway, my point is: you'll never forget it now. |And if you're like me, you won't care either. It will in 1.9 or later. matz.

When it comes to skincare-makeup hybrids, it's hard to know how seriously to take the skincare part. Is your skin really soaking up the complexion-benefiting ingredients? Or is it really just makeup, only slightly less makeup-y? Never has the question been more pressing than with BB cream. You wear it, essentially, as face makeup to camouflage imperfections. Does that mean you should treat like foundation and wear it with face primer? We thought it best to turn to the experts on this one, so we polled some of the industry's best makeup artists. It turns out the answer is not black and white. Keep scrolling to read what they had to say.
The Artist: Ricky Wilson, a makeup artist whose celebrity clients include Nina Dobrev, Emmy Rossum, and Joy Bryant.
The Answer: Yes, if you like your old-school rules. "I always prepare the skin before applying anything with a tint to it," Wilson says. "Lots of people confuse BB creams with a tinted moisturizer, and although BB cream has skin-improving benefits, I have found that they go on heavier than I like without adding something lightweight first. "I'm so old school when it comes to the skin and stick to the rule of: always prep before you paint."
The Artist: Julianne Kaye, a celebrity makeup artist who has worked with Kate Hudson, Kelly Osbourne, Nicole Richie, and more.
The Answer: Yes, if you're looking for shine protection. Kaye says if you need the oil control, use both. She also added one caveat because some BBs come with primer built in. "[Use it] unless you go for a BB crème that has primer in it—not all BB crèmes are created equal," Kaye says.
The Artist: Kendra Richards, a makeup artist who works with famous faces like Kerry Washington, Molly Sims, and Anna Paquin.
The Answer: No, it's probably not needed. "In general, you can skip the primer when wearing a BB cream," Richards says. "It's an unnecessary, extra step and won't necessarily improve the performance. BB creams are created to be multiple steps in one product. Formulations vary, so you can try it to see if it improves the wear and look of your BB cream, but generally speaking, it probably won't be necessary or helpful."
The Artist: Jennifer Greenberg, a makeup artist whose work is all over top television shows like Glee, Mad Men, and Sons of Anarchy.
The Answer: No, generally speaking. Greenberg finds that, in general, "Nothing is needed on the face before most BB crèmes." But she also noted that products differ, so it may be worth trying it out to have that comparison.
The Final Verdict: Maybe. Depending on the product you're using and your skin's needs, using a primer first may improve the performance of your BB cream.

The Rev'd Stephen E. Stults
St. Paul's Anglican Church
St. Paul's Anglican Church
Transfiguration, 2017
Last week we read about Abraham being called upon to sacrifice his son, Isaac. Although in God's ultimate mercy, he was not required to complete the act, only to show a willingness to do so. Abraham was foreshadowing the complete sacrifice God the Father would perform for us in Jesus. From this, we see that sacrifice is a key theme in Christianity to repair relationships.
In this week's Gospel, we hear of an event that changed three of the Apostles, James, John and Peter's relationship to Christ. In this passage, we see Christ and the apostles going up into a high mountain, where he is transfigured before them. He is changed from being the great Teacher into something else: deity. From this time on, none of these three men could see Christ in the same way as before.
Imagine the scene: up on the mountain, Christ begins to pray, and as he does, His clothing begins to glisten and whiten, and his face was changed. He is glorified. Next, two men appear with him, Moses and Elijah, who also are in a glorified state. The engage Christ in conversation, talking with Him about his upcoming death in Jerusalem.
The situation is very rich in symbolism and meaning, It affected how the Disciples saw Christ, and how we should see him today.
First, Christ's appearance is not something of this world. His face and clothing take on a otherworldly shine; in fact they "glisten." What does this mean? Simply, that for a while, Jesus took on a glorified nature, or as one commentator says, a foretaste of the glory to come. He is no longer just Jesus the Man, but now shows his divine nature as Christ the Lord. He appears in a non-earthly form that only those of another realm can take. The disciples cannot make any other claim.
Next, Jesus is joined by two men, Moses and Elijah. This is important to us for at least two reasons. First, it shows Jesus as the living bridge between the Old Testament and the New. Moses represents the Law, while Elijah represents the Prophets.
Here are two pillars of the Old Testament meeting with Him who will establish the New Testament in His Blood.. The validity of the Old and New together is affirmed.
Second, it shows us that the saints of the Old Testament Church will be saved. Moses and Elijah's presence with Jesus affirms this. This is important, for it shows that someday, in God's own time, the vail will be taken away from the Jews' recognition of Jesus. They will see Jesus as the Messiah, and in so doing, will embrace salvation. What we do not know is when.
The question we must ask ourselves is this: how do we see Jesus? Do we see Him merely as the great Teacher? Do we see Him as the great social revolutionary? Do we see him as the compassionate healer?
Yes, we should see him as all of these ways. Yet, there is one more way we must see Jesus in light of this Biblical passage. Recall the last two great happenings in this passage. First, a cloud overshadowed them, causing them great concern, even fear. Many scholars agree that this was the great Glory Cloud that covered the Tabernacle in the wilderness and actually prevented Moses from entering.1 It also filled the Temple and was so dense that even the priests could not minister in it. Called the Shikinah Glory Cloud, it is believed to contain thousands and thousands of saints and heavenly beings. Out of the cloud came a great voice. This voice said, "This is my beloved Son: hear him."
Considering these events from Scripture, I ask you again: how are we to see Jesus? The answer should be plain. Not just the great Teacher, not just the great Healer, but who He really is, the Son of God. Keep in mind that this event happened a little over a week after Peter's confession that Jesus was the Son of God. Peter was given the faith to say that. Now, in God's glorious Will, Peter actually sees Jesus in His glorified state, as God. What a glorious gift that was!
We should do the same. Yes, we should admire Jesus the sinless man, while we worship Jesus as the true and only Son of God. There is only one Christ, perfect man and perfect God. We Christians are blessed to know both, through the wonderful words of Scripture, and the glorious Sacrament of the Altar. The words of the Bible tells us who He is, and the Sacrament lets us unite with Him in a real and very personal way. Amen.
1Matthew Henry, Luke 9

The Hi-Tone Café is the place to be this week if you're interested in a crash-course on the subject of extreme metal, and on Thursday, April 17th, the club hosts a four-band lineup that presents a cross section of the current state of the genre. Though Soilent Green and Skeletonwitch have played Memphis many times, put them together with the less familiar Hate Eternal and Toxic Holocaust, and you get a fantastic lesson in underground metal circa 2008. Is it still a partial glimpse? Sure. After all, we're talking about four bands, not 400.
Though sometimes lumped in with the current thrash revival that's sweeping the metal landscape, opener Toxic Holocaust is a far grittier band that dates back to 1999 and is led by true underground metal aesthete Joel Grind. With a revolving door of backing musicians, Grind's Toxic Holocaust owes a nod to the crossover thrashcore of mid-'80s luminaries Septic Death and black-metal enigma Darkthrone. To use a comparison that will infuriate metalheads, Toxic Holocaust is almost an extreme metal version of early Guided by Voices or power-pop lifers M.O.T.O. — highly prolific on tiny labels or through self-releases, a recording fidelity that fluctuates wildly with each release, lots of hard-to-find singles, splits, and EP's, and a prevailing, roll-up-your-sleeves-and-dig-in D.I.Y. ethic.
In that sense, Toxic Holocaust harkens back to a glorious time in underground metal — when the scene was kept alive by bands that never stopped touring and when Xeroxed 'zines and a fervent tape-trading network were utilized to spread the word. (To note: There would be no Metallica without said network.)
As for full-lengths, Toxic Holocaust has released two, Critical Mass (2002) and Evil Never Dies (2003), and will turn over a new page this year by recording a third album for the illustrious Relapse Records. A positive attribute of the underground metal community that rings true more so than in other musical genres: Hard work might actually pay off. Relapse will undoubtedly assist in bringing Toxic Holocaust a wider audience hungry for the band's unique take on time-honored thrash.
Of heavy metal's innumerable sub-genres, death metal is essentially an American phenomenon, with ground zero being middle Florida. Tampa and the surrounding area was to death metal's heyday of the late '80s and early '90s what Seattle was to the grunge explosion of the same era. The bands that came out of Tampa (Morbid Angel, Obituary, Death, Deicide, etc.) would create and expand upon the style's unprecedented heaviness, 200-beats-per-minute velocity, bulldozing rhythms, themes of depraved darkness, and complete disdain for vocal melody. Much to the chagrin of these artists, a dilettantish music writer coined the term "Cookie Monster vocals," and it stuck as an easy way for outsiders to poke fun at the genre. Nonetheless, death metal managed to finally do what metal had always threatened: scare the living crap out of every concerned parent, priest, and unsuspecting listener within earshot.
This history manifests itself in Hate Eternal, a band created by scene veteran Erik Rutan, who spent time playing guitar for Morbid Angel. Hate Eternal came together in the late '90s as a vehicle for Rutan to explore a perfect storm of death metal. Roaring onto disc in 1999 with Conquering the Throne, the Tampa/St. Petersburg band wasted little time erasing the mediocrity that had sent death metal limping through the mid-'90s. It doesn't exactly make one feel young to refer to something that happened in 1990 as "old school," but Hate Eternal merge old-school death metal with its cousin grindcore and elevate every quality to the next level.
It seems implausible that death metal or grindcore could get any heavier, harsher, tighter/more technical, faster ... without imploding, but Hate Eternal pulled it off on album number four, Fury and Flames, released in February on longtime genre powerhouse Metal Blade Records. It's a concept album thematically arranged around the October 2006 death of Rutan's best friend and bass player, Jared Anderson. Few authentic death-metal bands stay relevant for more than a decade without buckling under a temptation to switch gears; Hate Eternal has accomplished the none-too-small goal of modernizing death metal for this young century.
An extreme-metal institution, New Orleans' Soilent Green is one of the few bands that can toy with different styles (usually within the space of a single song) without sacrificing an ounce of intensity or having their eclecticism come across as an affectation. Formed 20 years ago by Brian Patton (guitar) and Tommy Buckley (drums), the band hit its stride as a Relapse Records flagship in the late '90s. The accomplished Sewn Mouth Secrets (1998), an unrelenting tornado of grindcore, death metal, Southern/classic rock, jazzy breakdowns, and powerful hardcore, would position them as a worldwide force in metal.
Soilent Green represents a who's who of New Orleans' legendary extreme metal scene: Patton also plays guitar in EyeHateGod; vocalist Ben Faust is in Goatwhore; and Buckley beats the kit for Crowbar. On more than one occasion, Soilent Green has survived some serious adversity. Bassist Scott Williams died in 2004 as a result of a murder/suicide, then former vocalist Glen Rambo was killed by Hurricane Katrina.
After years with Relapse, Soilent Green's fifth full-length album, Inevitable Breakdown in the Presence of Conviction, signaled a move to Metal Blade, which released the album this month. Rolling Stone may not be a wealth of metal coverage or awareness, but there's something to be said for the inclusion of Soilent Green in the magazine's "25 Most Influential Heavy Metal Bands of All Time."
Last but not least, Skeletonwitch have been given inches in these pages that the aforementioned bands have not, but their black-metal-informed thrash proudly rocks shiny steel touchstones such as classic '70s-era Judas Priest and Thin Lizzy. Plus, they are excellent live.

Sky-Terra were designed with the intent of creating a green space in the sky. But am I the only one who sees a flaw with this logic?
Sprouting between buildings, the Sky-Terra (another entrant in the 2009 eVolo Skyscraper Competition) hopes to create a neuron-like network of parks, pools, amphitheaters and bathhouses in the sky.
So far, so good.
But what happens to those poor souls living their lives under the Sky-Terra? What about those millions of people not on holiday, who'd just like to walk to work with some shard of sun on their face?
Have you ever seen those glowing fish from way deep in the ocean, with fluorescent skin you can see in complete absence of light? That will be the human race. So really, it's not all bad. [Inhabitat]
