Ten-Year Anniversary of the Engelhard Project at Georgetown University
Georgetown University's Engelhard Project, which originated as a concept in a 2005 BTtoP Demonstration Grant, is now approaching its ten year anniversary. Since its inception, the project has reached over sixty faculty members, twenty-eight academic departments, and 11,000 students through the model of curriculum infusion. By connecting and embedding student health and wellness into the classroom, the goal of the project has been not only to foster the gain of knowledge, but to build meaningful relationships between faculty, students, and the community, and to ultimately encourage students' personal growth. The anniversary events will celebrate and honor the accomplishments of all those involved in this transformative program.
2015–2017 Funding Opportunities: Category I Proposal Deadline January 15, 2016
BTtoP has funded over 480 grants at more than 300 institutions to date, and there are still funding opportunities available from our 2015–2017 RFP! Category I Well-Being Grants range up to $1,000 and are aimed at providing support for seminars that give focused attention to a particular dimension of the well-being of those involved—be it students, faculty, or other leaders—in creating and maintaining an engaged culture for learning. We invite proposals to be submitted by the deadline of January 15, 2016. For more information on our RFP, funding opportunities, examples of previously awarded grants, grant frequently asked questions, and other resources, please visit our website at http://www.bttop.org/grants-funding/funding-opportunities.
Imagining America: Now Accepting Proposal Submissions for a New Host Institution
In 2017, Imagining America: Artists and Scholars in Public Life (IA), will complete its ten-year residency at Syracuse University and move to a new host academic institution. To initiate the two-year transition period before summer 2017, IA has put out a call for hosting proposals to assist in determining their new partner institution, with submission open to both single institutions or lead institutions in collaboration with other educational, cultural, philanthropic, and governmental partners. Initial letters of interest are due by November 2, 2015, and full proposals due by January 16, 2016. To find out more about Imagining America and their search for a new host, visit http://imaginingamerica.org/about/transition/.
Welcome: New Bringing Theory to Practice Team Member Caitlin Salins
BTtoP is pleased to welcome Caitlin Salins as a new member to the team! Working as our project coordinator and assistant to the director, Caitlin brings a background of library science, classical languages and literatures, and a passion for working with the higher education community. A native to Prince Georges County and the DC area, she completed both her undergraduate and graduate studies at the University of Maryland College Park.
Congratulations to BTtoP National Evaluator Ashley Finley on Her Move to Dominican University
Ashley Finley, BTtoP's national evaluator, has accepted the position of associate vice president for academic affairs and dean of the Dominican Experience at Dominican University in California. During her time as AAC&U's senior director for research and assessment, Ashley has been integral in building the organization's assessment program. She has most recently been making strides as a leader in the VALUE/Multi-State Collaborative initiative, supported by the Gates, Sherman Fairchild, and Spencer Foundations, to launch AAC&U's VALUE (Valid Assessment of Learning in Undergraduate Education) approach to direct assessment, enabling the gathering of evidence to evaluate student learning and ultimately better campus teaching. Her new position will allow her to further champion and implement the values she has been instrumental in supporting—liberal education, civic development, and student well-being—with the opportunity to affect and improve higher education on the ground level. Although she will be dearly missed on the east coast, BTtoP offers the highest congratulations and support and is excited to have Ashley continue her work with BTtoP as National Evaluator.

Rangeland Desertification
Olafur Arnalds, Steve Archer
Springer Science & Business Media, 2000 - Nature - 209 pages
Desertification has occurred worldwide. The biophysical and socio-economic complexity of this phenomenon has challenged our ability to categorize, inventory, monitor and repair the condition of degraded lands. One of the most important distinctions to be made in relation to land degradation is between cultivated land used for annual crop production and `rangelands'. Grazing by free-roaming livestock is the traditional primary use of the world's rangelands. However, there is growing recognition of the importance of these vast acreages for wildlife habitat, hydrology and ground water recharge, recreation and aesthetics.
This text focuses on the desertification of rangelands and explores processes, problems and solutions. Chapters in the first section evaluate interactions between `natural' and human-induced disturbance regimes, thresholds, and non-linear change with respect to vegetation, hydrology, nutrients and erosion. Chapters in the second section examine socio-economic constraints and approaches for preventing and reversing degradation.
The book provides a contemporary, process-oriented perspective on rangeland degradation of value to students, policy-makers and professionals alike.

Sitting through a panic attack without being able to escape is a thought that can inspire a new anxiety attack. Panic attacks can strike seemingly out of the blue, and anxiety attacks hit in response to escalating stress and worry. They often happen at terrible times, times and places when we're around other people and in situations that we can't easily escape (which of course makes sense, as these are anxiety-provoking situations). Keep reading to learn four ways to sit through a panic attack when you can't leave.
Being in a place such as a meeting, classroom, your child's event, and the like when panic arises is awful. Knowing that you can't easily slip away unnoticed only serves to worsen an already-bad anxiety attack. It may seem as though you are losing all control, but in reality, there are things you can do to increase your sense of control and decrease the intensity of the panic attack, all while staying where you are.
2. Do Something. Your body wants to flee. You want to flee. There's all of this pent-up energy coursing through you that needs to go somewhere. You can't go out the door, so find a different way to channel it. Doodle, scribble, and draw. Fiddle with a bracelet, rubber band, or Rubik's cube. Knit or crochet if you know how. Move in any way you can. As with the focus object, do it mindfully. Use your senses to help get your mind onto your actions and out of panic mode.
3. Breathe. This is essential to calm the heart rate, slow thoughts, and reduce stress. In panic- and anxiety attacks, breathing goes haywire. Getting breathing under control also gets panic under control. In the midst of a panic attack, it can be difficult to simply breathe. There are exercises you can do to create a nice rhythm. One such exercise is very subtle and thus great for times when you want to be discreet.
4. Keep your mind on the above strategies and off your thoughts. During an anxiety attack, thoughts race relentlessly. Now is not the time to engage with them. Don't try to identify them. Don't try to argue with them. Don't look for evidence that they're wrong. Don't agree with them. See them as a cluster of words. Accept that your thoughts are racing and just imagine them zooming by. Accept their presence now. Deal with the thoughts later.
Doing any of the above strategies (as many or as few as you want to) can help you survive a panic or anxiety attack when you're unable to leave where you are.

Steelpans at a West Indian Centre. Seems only appropriate, and who else but the award-winning Leeds Silver Steel Sparrows, some of us fresh from our week in Lille! [When I say fresh . . . . . ]
For a while we wobbled at the beginning of this school year as the older Sparrows hit pastures new and A levels, but the new Sparrows are catching up now, with a repertoire of tricky tunes in double figures, and an increasing facility for sight-reading the Foxwood Songsheets.
New Sparrows today are Kirsten, Lucy, Deangelo, Owen and Alice. Older Sparrows are Claudia, George, Ash, Millie and Millie. Leaders are Victoria and Bex; support staff are Wanda and Vicky; parents are Alice's dad, Mark, Joanne, Michelle, Amanda, Sandy. Foxcubs are James and Mikey.
|nice pallet
We only had five crosses for the big basses. Alice and co came back with a pallet, painted turquoise. Too big for the basses, we used it to display the banner. And we remembered the pallets in Lille supporting the tenor basses. Ahhh!. [Bex found some logs later].
Here is the following day's message of thanks:
Thank you so much for a super performance at The West Indian Centre yesterday. My conference delegates were delighted by the performance – you can tell from the rapturous applause and also people have been talking about it all day.
And, do you know, it felt good at the time.

Introduction of 12 Basic React Native Components includes the overview and basic understanding of React Native basic components.
As we all know React Native is a component-based JS framework therefore whatever you make in Rect Native will become a component for others. Components are always required by the app developers to sketch his/her imagination on the canvas and React Native has many components to work with. In this post, we will see the basic components which are provided by the default React Native Library.
We will go through each component one by one. As we are exploring all the components one by one so this post will be divided into the number of posts. If you have any suggestion please share your suggestions here.
1. View
View is like a container view. (Ex. Linear layout, Relative layout etc) for mobile developers and for web developers it is like <div>.
2. Text
Text is like TextView/Label for mobile developers and for web developers, it is like <p>.
3. State
State in React Native is like binding the value of any variable with any component, which will change when we change the value using setState. For example, if we made a state variable called varx and showing the value of varx in text view it will show the default value of varx but any time when we change the value of varx it will update automatically and will show the new value of varx (Same as ng-modal in Angular). Initialize state in the constructor, and then call setState when we want to change it.
4. Props
React Native components have some props which are helpful to customize the component. For example placeholder, Value, Style etc. These are props.
The state is mutable while props are immutable. This means that state can be updated in the future while props cannot be updated.
5. StyleSheet
A stylesheet is like CSS to design and make your UI look like you want.
6. TextInput
TextInput is like EditText/UITextfield for mobile developers and for web developers it is like <input type="text">.
7. Image
An image is like ImageView for mobile developers and for web developers, it is like <img>.
8. ScrollView
ScrollView is like a normal ScrollView for mobile developers.
9. Button
A Button is like a normal Button for mobile developers and for web developers, it is like <button>.
10. Picker
Picker is like a Spinner/Dropdown for mobile developers and for web developers, it is like <Select>.
11. Switch
12. Activity Indicator
Activity Indicator is like a ProgressBar/Loader with for mobile developers and for web developers, it is like Loader.

Seems simple, doesn´t it?
Try stucking a professional dancer to a chair for endless hours, only moving her fingers against the keyboard & throwing all her emotions over a computer. Ahhhh! Not easy. I´ve never liked easy, anyways…
Let´s GO!
P.S: I recently found that having an editor working on my book with me is like being a child to a new parent (hello, Mr. Freud!). Finding the balance between our creative conviction and the perspective of our editor – who wishes to come up with the best book we can produce – is tricky but interesting, another way to push me towards that extra mile that I may not see if I´m doing it alone. I realize who I am – as well as my writing purpose – along the way.
No denying: the editor also works as an emotional support and insecurity eraser – someone who believes in our talent and pushes us to do our best. Need it. Love it.
Proud of what was already created (my first published book
"The Secrets of Egypt – Dance, Life & Beyond") and eager to be and do even better.

Digital Marketing Tips for Car Dealers

Selling a car is not the same as selling a hot dog. It takes effort and a lot of persuasion to convince a prospective buyer to buy from you. Online marketing is a must if you want buyers walking through your doors and driving away in a car. Newspaper, TV and radio ads work but, […]

This page addresses frequent sources of confusion or important things to know related to Kapacitor. Where applicable, it links to outstanding issues on Github.
Is the alert state and alert data lost happen updating a script?
How do I verify that Kapacitor is receiving data from InfluxDB?
Batches work but streams do not. Why?
Is there a limit on the number of scripts Kapacitor can handle?
Do you get better performance with running one complex script or having multiple scripts running in parallel?
Is the alert state and alert data lost happen when updating a script?
Kapacitor will remember the last level of an alert, but other state-like data, such as data buffered in a window, will be lost.
How do I verify that Kapacitor is receiving data from InfluxDB?
There are a few ways to determine whether or not Kapacitor is receiving data from InfluxDB.
kapacitor stats ingress command
outputs InfluxDB measurements stored in the Kapacitor database as well as the number
of data points that pass through the Kapacitor server.
$ kapacitor stats ingress
Database Retention Policy Measurement Points Received
_internal monitor cq 5274
_internal monitor database 52740
_internal monitor httpd 5274
_internal monitor queryExecutor 5274
_internal monitor runtime 5274
_internal monitor shard 300976
# ...
You can also use Kapacitor's
/debug/vars API endpoint
to view and monitor ingest rates.
Using this endpoint and Telegraf's Kapacitor input plugin,
you can create visualizations to monitor Kapacitor ingest rates.
Below are example queries that use Kapacitor data written into InfluxDB using
Telegraf's Kapacitor input plugin:
Kapacitor ingest rate (points/sec)
SELECT sum(points_received_rate) FROM (SELECT non_negative_derivative(first("points_received"),1s) as points_received_rate FROM "_kapacitor"."autogen"."ingress" WHERE time > :dashboardTime: GROUP BY "database", "retention_policy", "measurement", time(1m)) WHERE time > :dashboardTime: GROUP BY time(1m)
Kapacitor ingest by task (points/sec)
SELECT non_negative_derivative("collected",1s) FROM "_kapacitor"."autogen"."edges" WHERE time > now() - 15m AND ("parent"='stream' OR "parent"='batch') GROUP BY task
Batches work but streams do not. Why?
Make sure port
9092 is open to inbound connections.
Streams are a
PUSH'd to port
9092 so it must be allowed through the firewall.
Is there a limit on the number of scripts Kapacitor can handle?
There is no software limit, but it will be limited by available server resources.
Do you get better performance with running one complex script or having multiple scripts running in parallel?
Taking things to the extreme, best-case is one task that consumes all the data and does all the work since there is added overhead when managing multiple tasks. However, significant effort has gone into reducing the overhead of each task. Use tasks in a way that makes logical sense for your project and organization. If you run into performance issues with multiple tasks, let us know. As a last resort, merge tasks into more complex tasks.
Do template-based scripts use less resources or are they just an ease-of-use tool?
Templates are just an ease of use tool and make no difference in regards to performance.

Whether you're trying to lose weight or just live a healthier lifestyle, you might have heard from a doctor or friend that you should be drinking eight cups of water a day.
But, what about coffee… does this multi-benefit drink count towards your total goal?
Actually, some doctors are saying that water isn't necessarily better than coffee when it comes to staying properly hydrated.
Listen as I share the difference between coffee and water and which is better for hydration.

When you are working for yourself it is incredibly easy to rest on your laurels and never attempt to learn anything new – particularly when there is so much else to do. More and more I am realising that you need to give yourself permission to learn and invest in yourself.
With this in mind, I enrolled in the Social Media Success Summit – an online conference held throughout October and coordinated by the fabulous folk over at Social Media Examiner. The format is inspired – 3 x 45 minute sessions a day across 3 days a week. This is repeated throughout October for a total of 36 sessions. I am sure if you attempted to attend that many sessons face-to-face you would hit overload fairly quickly but this allows you time to reflect, learn, read and put a few ideas into practice.
Session One was presented by Mari Smith (@marismith) – How to Create a Facebook Content Plan that Maximizes Your News Feed Exposure. The first session at any conference is always the one to test out the technology and this one did not disappoint. Glitchy sound, dropouts and slide lags were the order of the day but there were some delicious bits of nuggety goodness in the bits I could hear.
Following up at the slightly more convenient hour of 7am (AEST) was Amy Porterfield (@AmyPorterfield) with How to Use Facebook Video Ads to Sell Your Products and Promote Your Content. This one scared me. A lot. Whilst the gist of the session was that you can create lovely, long and rambling video ads to engage your clients (which is awesome) I couldn't get past the tracking and behind the scenes stuff which I logically know is happening but it still kinda freaks me out. There were still some incredible information shared and a lot of things I now need to investigate.
And lastly, Jon Loomer (@jonloomer) and How to Drive Tons of Traffic by Building a Facebook Page Around a Passion. This session provided some great ideas – namely that creating a Facebook page about a passion will often garner a greater following than if you went straight into creating a page for your brand. An example he gave was Darren Rowse (@problogger) who has created the page "Do you love photography?" which has 89,000 followers. He could then monetise this following by sharing information and posts from his business page which is "Digital Photography School" and potentially reach people who were unaware of who he was. This page has almost 800,000 followers so you know, not doing too bad.
To share what I am learning and to embed the best ideas in this very tired little brain of mine, I have decided to blog each day about that mornings sessions and hereby present to you my top 5 takeaways.
[box type="bio"] Whether you are creating a pictorial or a video ad for Facebook – always start with a "Yes" question. This is basically a question that the majority of the people you want to reach will answer yes to. This engages them immediately and encourages them to keep reading or watching. [/box][box type="bio"] Video is taking the lead – especially on mobile devices. There are 4 bilion video views a day and over 75% of these are on mobiles. Now whilst this sorta sucks for me and my crappy home internet connection, this is great news for those of you who want to create catchy video content to share with your tribe. Video ads, video content – it is all being watched and is currently generating greater organic reach for Facebook pages across the globe.[/box][box type="bio"] I've heard it before but it is worth reiterating that posts generated and shared using the native Facebook apps seem to get greater engagement than those created with third-party apps. Many people have tested this and the results are widely varied but I would suggest that using the native apps is worthwhile when it does the job. Use third-party apps when they are going to do it better.[/box][box type="bio"] Organic reach is at an all-time low and it tipped to get lower. Combine this with trying to build a brand page from the ground up and you could find yourself with a massive mountain to climb. A suggested solution to this is to create a "passion page" that you post to and promote alongside your brand page. In my situation, AMK Training and Consulting is not the catchiest of page titles – particularly to people who don't know me or what I do but this is the brand I am trying to promote. If I create, for example, a page called Best IT Tips on Facebook I am more likely to get followers, shares and engagement and then I can use this to build my own brand. Watch this space![/box][box type="bio"] There are a plethora of tools out there to assist you in creating content and making your posts look fantastic. Take advantage of tools like Canva, PicMonkey and WordSwag to make the most of your posts.[/box]

Bishop anticipates end of Cathedral Renovation Project by 2018- July 14, 2016
Bishop of the Roman Catholic Church, Gabriel Malzaire anticipates that renovation works on the Roseau Cathedral will be completed by June 2018.
Speaking at a press conference aimed at updating the public on ongoing works at the cathedral on Thursday July 14,2016 Bishop Malzaire said the project is moving into stage five which is the covering and construction of the roof.
"It is important to note that what was initially intended to be the replacement of the roof turned out to be a much bigger project," he said.
"Midway through the planning process it was advisable to do what we call a seismic test of the foundation. We realized that the foundation was not as wholesome as was needed to support a heavy roof," the Bishop indicated.
He added that the foundation had to be retrofitted, followed by the placement of a steel frame and now the next stage is placing of the roof.
"We have been waiting for the material for the roof for practically a year. We are awaiting the material from America and at a certain point we had to re-measure since it is a very complex roof. We had to do precise measurement which was responsible for the delay that we have at the moment."
Bishop Malzaire informed that the material is expected to arrive in Dominica within a months' time and work will continue.
"What the engineers are saying to me is that the placement of the roof will take at least three months. We hope that we can place the roof during this time".
Additionally, the Bishop informed that following the roof placement, the next step will be construction of a new flooring, then the additions of windows and doors, the choir loft and the bell tower.
"It is quite a bit of work that needs to be done in the finishing stages and according to my mind I wouldn't want the project to go beyond mid-2018," he stated.
Bishop Malzaire said it has been a long journey so far and he would have loved to have the Cathedral completed by 2017, however said this would have been a tall order.
"Mid-2018 I am hoping that we will have a full fledge Cathedral and I am looking forward to reopen, recommission it and consecrate it and everybody will be able to come," Bishop Malzaire said.
The Roseau Cathedral, which is 159 years old, represents historical, cultural and religious significance for the people of Dominica.

Per kalogrenant — it is my sad duty to report that one of my favorite actors just died last night: Carlo Pedersoli, better known as Bud Spencer.
He's best known for his comedic spaghetti westerns, of course, but he was a gifted man of many talents who was (among other things) an actor, legal scholar, Olympic swimmer, stuntman, inventor, singer and composer, pilot, author, fashion designer, music producer, water polo player, airline founder/owner, and more.
Here's to you, Bud.

I can't say I've ever seen this man's films (I'd certainly remember a title like "Even Angels Eat Beans") - most of my spaghetti western experiences revolved around Clint Eastwood and Lee Van Cleef. I'll try to find some of his work sometime :o)

Reaching out to victims of natural disasters is one of hundreds of ways in which Medical Mission Sisters and our Associates around the world try to be a healing presence to others today.
Typhoon Washi struck the Philippines from December 16 to 18, causing over 1,000 deaths and leaving 60,000 people homeless. Our Sisters in Malaybalay City, Bukidnon, experienced heavy rains and driving winds, but not the flooding that devastated other areas. They asked their youth groups, Medical Mission Youth and the Parish Youth Apostolate, to sort clothes for the diocesan relief distribution efforts. The young people spent two nights and one day helping with this effort.
Sister Mary Jane Caspillo was involved in relief distribution for the typhoon victims. Her group of 98 volunteers went to four areas and gave out packages that included food, drinking water and personal hygiene items to 1,000 families. Sister shares, "Words are not enough for me to describe the images and the atmosphere that this event caused the people and Earth."
Two of the areas Sister Mary Jane visited, Barangays Carmen and Balulang, are located beside the Cagayan River. Hundreds of houses there were washed away by the floods. Sister says, "I met two young men who were among the survivors. They were both carried away by the floodwaters…one was able to hold on to a piece of log and was found by a fisherman in the sea the next day; the other held on to a water container and was found in the sea by the Coast Guard, also on the next day."
She adds, "A lady pointed to (me) where her house was standing before the flash floods. Now, everything is gone…she hugged me tightly and said no words, just a loud cry and then a deep sigh, grateful that nobody was hurt in her family."
The group Sister Mary Jane worked with, Help Northern Mindanao, is planning a second relief distribution effort this month, when they have gathered enough goods and cash.
Sister shares, "I don't know how much time it will take for Earth to restore herself…for the victims, it will take a long time before they can recover from this tragedy and find their rightful place again. The little that we can do for them or share with them means a lot. Let us continue to pray with them."

This is the most powerful question in the world today: Why not here? People in Eastern Europe looked at people in Western Europe and asked, Why not here? People in Ukraine looked at people in Georgia and asked, Why not here? People around the Arab world look at voters in Iraq and ask, Why not here?
Thomas Kuhn famously argued that science advances not gradually but in jolts, through a series of raw and jagged paradigm shifts. Somebody sees a problem differently, and suddenly everybody's vantage point changes.
"Why not here?" is a Kuhnian question, and as you open the newspaper these days, you see it flitting around the world like a thought contagion. Wherever it is asked, people seem to feel that the rules have changed. New possibilities have opened up.
The question is being asked now in Lebanon. Walid Jumblatt made his much circulated observation to David Ignatius of The Washington Post: "It's strange for me to say it, but this process of change has started because of the American invasion of Iraq. I was cynical about Iraq. But when I saw the Iraqi people voting three weeks ago, eight million of them, it was the start of a new Arab world."
So now we have mass demonstrations on the streets of Beirut. A tent city is rising up near the crater where Rafik Hariri was killed, and the inhabitants are refusing to leave until Syria withdraws. The crowds grow in the evenings; bathroom facilities are provided by a nearby Dunkin' Donuts and a Virgin Megastore.Continue reading the main story
The head of the Syrian Press Syndicate told The Times on Thursday: "There's a new world out there and a new reality. You can no longer have business as usual."
Meanwhile in Palestine, after days of intense pressure, many of the old Arafat cronies are out of the interim Palestinian cabinet. Fresh, more competent administrators have been put in. "What you witnessed is the real democracy of the Palestinian people," Saeb Erakat said to Alan Cowell of The Times. As Danny Rubinstein observed in the pages of Ha'aretz, the rules of the game have changed.
Then in Iraq, there is actual politics going on. The leaders of different factions are jostling. The tone of the coverage ebbs and flows as more or less secular leaders emerge and fall back, but the amazing thing is the politics itself. If we had any brains, we'd take up Reuel Marc Gerecht's suggestion and build an Iraqi C-Span so the whole Arab world could follow this process like a long political soap opera.
It's amazing in retrospect to think of how much psychological resistance there is to asking this breakthrough question: Why not here? We are all stuck in our traditions and have trouble imagining the world beyond. As Claus Christian Malzahn reminded us in Der Spiegel online this week, German politicians ridiculed Ronald Reagan's "tear down this wall" speech in 1987. They "couldn't imagine that there might be an alternative to a divided Germany."
But if there is one soft-power gift America does possess, it is this tendency to imagine new worlds. As Malzahn goes on to note, "In a country of immigrants like the United States, one actually pushes for change. We Europeans always want to have the world from yesterday, whereas the Americans strive for the world of tomorrow."
Stephen Sestanovich of the Council on Foreign Relations wrote an important essay for this page a few weeks ago, arguing that American diplomacy is often most effective when it pursues not an incrementalist but a "maximalist" agenda, leaping over allies and making the crude, bold, vantage-shifting proposal -- like pushing for the reunification of Germany when most everyone else was trying to preserve the so-called stability of the Warsaw Pact.
As Sestanovich notes, and as we've seen in spades over the past two years in Iraq, this rashness -- this tendency to leap before we look -- has its downside. Things don't come out wonderfully just because some fine person asks, Why not here?
But this is clearly the question the United States is destined to provoke. For the final thing that we've learned from the papers this week is how thoroughly the Bush agenda is dominating the globe. When Bush meets with Putin, democratization is the center of discussion. When politicians gather in Ramallah, democratization is a central theme. When there's an atrocity in Beirut, the possibility of freedom leaps to people's minds.
Not all weeks will be as happy as this one. Despite the suicide bombings in Israel and Iraq, the thought contagion is spreading. Why not here?

Every makeup junkie/addict has two or more products from Urban Decay, for me this brand has always been on my lust list but was unfortunately a bit difficult to get in S.A.Urban Decay (UD) is a prestigious makeup brand in the US and according to most reviews I've read, their products are the bomb.I was so excited when UD opened its stores this year in Sandton City, and to pile on the good news word on the street is that this brand might be soon available at selected Foschini stores.
On my visit to Sandton City, I popped into the UD store for some product browsing and swatching lol.I decided to try their Vice lipstick.The Vice lipsticks are available in 100 shades and 6 indulgent finishes.The shade I picked up is Checkmate, which is a soft (comfort) matte bright pink shade perfect for summer.One of the things that really stood out for me about this lipstick was the packaging. OMG, so sleek, classy with that 'buy me finish'.
Now if you're a matte lipstick fan, you probably know how they can be drying on the lips.I found this lippie not drying at all,the formula was great for a matte lipstick and I mostly forgot that I had it on unlike other matte lipsticks I've used before.The pigmentation was bomb!!This applied very well on my lips and I only applied two layers and set it with some powder as I wanted it to stay longer.
After breakfast,tea and lunch, I was left with a nice tint on my lips.I wore this around 7:00 in the morning and only reapplied around 2pm.In terms of the pricing,this retails for R230 which is the same price range as MAC lipsticks.I'm really impressed with this lipstick,the pigmentation,longevity and also the formula.This is worth every penny and I'm definitely getting more.Big ups to Urban Decay?
Have you guys tried any Urban Decay products?Which products are your fave from this brand and which ones would you like to try?Hit me up in the comment section
Till the next one Beauties
Love V❤?

Warhammer: Vermintide 2 Review - Skaven Massacre/
Skaven Massacre
Played On: PC
What I've Played:
- Game Time: 32 hours and counting.
- Played every character and some of their classes.
- My highest character is level 26.
- Unlocked every map and finished each at least once.
- Highest difficulty completed: Champion
When I started playing Warhammer: Vermintide 2, I was easily pulled in by how satisfying it felt to go through gauntlet-like missions in a team of 4 players. It reminded me of the days when the first game came out, and how it played like a good take on the Left 4 Dead formula, only set in the Warhammer universe. This sequel is a perfect example of building from the first game's successes while simultaneously focusing on improving where it fell short.
For those unfamiliar with Vermintide, 4 players choose to play one of the five characters in the game – namely, Markus Kruber (Empire Soldier), Viktor Saltzpyre (Witch Hunter), Bardin Goreksson (Dwarf Ranger), Kerillian (Wood Elf), and Sienna Fuegonasus (Bright Wizard). You are then thrown into various missions where you go through waves of enemies and other creatures that attempt to overwhelm your group through sheer numbers. There are bosses that will soften up your group, and special enemies that aim to disrupt your team's synergy. There will be items to consume, tomes and grimoires to collect for better rewards, and a loot chest waiting for you if you somehow survive.
Familiar Combat With The Same Satisfying Results
For those that have played through the first game, the combat in the sequel will feel similar, but in a good way. You hack away and push incoming waves of enemies, and pick off unaware special enemies with your ranged weapon. Melee combat in Vermintide 2 feels right when swinging each weapon. Thanks to the animation and sound effects, the crunch of contact from every one of your attacks, and the feeling of resistance against, for example, an armored foe, is gratifying. The game not only boasts many types of weapons, but each weapon is different. They have certain perks that make them ideal for certain situations. Even ranged weapons have different properties that can be effective from short, to mid, to long range.
In Warhammer: Vermintide 2, there are 13 maps available in the base game. Each map is themed, bringing you to different locations; you'll see narrow and dark mining caves, a quiet open forest, an enemy war camp, and even the streets of a ravaged town. These locations are large, but easy to navigate, thanks to audio cues from characters and the obvious visual hints like lanterns or torches lighting a pathway. They are beautiful to look at, despite the prevailing theme of death and misery, and encourage exploration in the hopes of finding more helpful items.
Be Always on Alert
Each map can take up to 30 minutes of your time. These maps are designed to be replayed multiple times, so the level designs are engineered to reduce familiarity and redundancy. And thanks to its "AI Director", Vermintide 2 always changes up how the opposition will engage you. The type of miniboss you'll encounter may be different than the last time you played the map, and where it will show up is also undetermined. This is also the case for consumables and special enemies.
The ratmen faction, the Skaven, were the primary antagonists of the first game. They have extra help this time around via the Rotbloods, a faction new to the game that brings forth special enemies to mix things up every mission; Chaos Warriors, Bile Trolls, Special Chaos Infantry wielding different weapons, Blightstormers - all of these new enemies are now part of the AI Director's arsenal. Skaven special enemies were bad enough, but Vermintide 2 is all about building on what was established in the first game, thus giving us more to worry about. It's not easy to take these maps lightly.
It can be tough at times, but the game rewards those who stay focused and listen. The music ramps up when a horde of enemies begin to charge at you, and distinct sounds are given to specific special enemies and bosses, giving players a hint at what's around the corner. I've had moments where the team stops moving because we hear whispers, suggesting a rat assassin is nearby and looking for its chance to pounce on one of us.
Loot and Progress System Improved
The progression system in Vermintide 2 has been improved. Each character now has three classes, each with their own passive and active skill, plus their own sets of traits to choose from. The Wood Elf Kerillian, for example, is by default adept at long range combat, but the other classes make her more melee focused. Each character already plays differently, and the introduction of classes makes for more room for experimentation and uniqueness in every group.
The loot system also received an upgrade. It's still randomized loot just like the first game, and items that are essentially useless can be broken down into parts, which will be used to craft items, or improve/reroll stats of existing equipment. But compared to other systems that do something similar, each chest gives the feeling that you're moving forward in your progression. The loot system also picked up a few pointers from games like Destiny. All loot contributes to your overall Hero Power stat, which improves the overall performance of your character. There's no single equipment slot that's more important than the others (ex. having the weapon determine all damage output). You can be wielding a weapon low in Hero Power, but thanks to your level and other equipment, you'll still have enough Hero Power to be effective at higher difficulties (there are 4 difficulties available on release).
Vermintide 2 is a great co-op game that has minor issues that can be fixed further down the line. Oddly, there's no character stats page to inform you of secondary stats like critical hit chance or current curse resistance. Another issue arises if the player hosting the game suddenly leaves at the last part of the mission, causing the remaining three players to lose all that progress and restart the mission. There are even a few bugs, and character models got stuck in the 'T pose' position all too often during my time with the game, making my whole group giggle. Some stats and trait descriptions are also vague and require outside help in order to fully understand.
This is a solid sequel, though. Fatshark didn't stray away from what made the first game successful. They improved on what they already had. Newcomers will experience a fun and rewarding first-person co-op game, while veterans will be thrilled with the new changes and variety in content, difficulty, and character builds. Players will have fun playing Warhammer: Vermintide 2 for a long time alone, or with a few buddies, thanks to the friendly community they have established. I can see myself easily recommending this if you need to scratch that co-op itch.
A rewarding loot system that makes you feel like you are moving forward in progression.
A fun combat system that also requires teamwork for higher difficulties.
Maps are large, gorgeous to look at, and easily replayable.
UI interface can be frustrating when managing multiple characters.
Bugs are frequent.
Replayable, and further challenge can be found in Heroic Deeds missions.

In a Holy Week letter sent to Iraqi Christians in Erbil, Pope Francis has called on people of the world to "not forget the tragedy of persecution" suffered by Christians in the Middle East.
The Pope sent the letter, together with a gift of liturgical vestments and some money, via a delegation of the Italian branch of Aid to the Church in Need, a Catholic group that provides assistance to suffering Christians throughout the world.
Erbil has been housing thousands of Christian refugees from Mosul and the Nineveh Plains, which was overrun by the Islamic State in 2014.
"As soon as the Holy Father learned about my journey with Aid to the Church in Need, he called me and expressed a desire to send a gift to our Iraqi brothers in faith," said Bishop Cavina, who accompanied the delegation.
The Pope's letter expressed his friendship and "spiritual closeness" to Iraqi Christians, adding that their suffering "grieves me deeply, and invites us to defend the inalienable right of every person to freely profess their faith."
Pope Francis called on people of the world "not to forget the tragedy of persecution," and held up "the witness of courageous faith and patience of so many disciples of Christ."
This week, Patriarch Raphael Louis Sako I, president of the Iraqi Bishops' Conference, has also published an Easter message in which he implored Christians not to leave Iraq, despite the hardships.
Christians must "stay united in this land of ours, in which we were born, where we have lived for 1400 years," he said.
He also exhorted Iraqi Christians not to "fall into confusion" and to not let others "take advantage of our anxieties and disperse our families to the four corners of the earth."
"Christ died and rose is a sign of hope, an encouragement to remain united in this land of ours, in which Christians must continue to be pattern of light and hope, faithful to the Iraqi family," he said.

Etsy, the handmade vintage and craft items e-commerce store, announced that it will cut 15% of its workforce, which is about 140 job positions.
This will be the second time in the same year that Etsy will be undergo such a massive slashing of jobs. The first time the company cut jobs was earlier this year in May. Combining this and the previous slashing, Etsy will have cut out about 22% of its workforce which translates to about 230 jobs.
Since the company went public in 2015, it has been through some rough moments, including the replacement of former CEO Chad Dickerson with the current CEO Josh Silverman. During the first quarter of 2017, the company recorded $421,000 in losses and about $1 million in the quarter before.
In a statement released by Silverman, he said, "In order to drive focus, we took decisive steps to double down on the fewest, highest-impact initiatives in our core marketplace while de-prioritizing other projects and streamlining our resources. Parting ways with our colleagues is not easy and I am thankful for their contributions. We are moving forward with a more nimble structure that supports our current business needs and allows for faster execution so we can better serve creative entrepreneurs around the world."
The job cuts are an attempt to streamline the company's focus and redefine its priorities. This round of layoffs will most probably be focused in its Brooklyn headquarters. This job cuts will cost the company about $6 to $8.8 million while the previous one cost between $6.5 to $8 million. The company's stock increased a little less than 1%.

text: The Psalmist could speak of God's rules as being more desirable than gold and sweeter than honey. The idea of rules, regulations, and commandments does not always register very high on most of our excitement registers. So how is it that when we become full of faith, we do not only value the awesome promises in Scripture, but we also come to value and savor our Lord's commandments?

Do you love campfire cooking? Check out these top 10 must have tools for cooking over a campfire!
One of my favorite parts of camping is cooking over a campfire. When we first started camping we always took a little gas grill just in case. But we never used it and it took up a ton of space in an already tight car so last year on our trip to Yosemite, we didn't bring the grill. For three days we cooked all three meals over a campfire and it was amazing! We even made lobster tails on our last night.
Campfire Grate: Some campsites have grates over their fire pits already, but you just never know what condition it'll be in. We bought one of these last summer for our Yosemite trip and loved it!
Multi-Spice Shaker: I got tired of packing little containers of my favorite spices so last year I bought this multi-shaker and love it. It has all the basics on one spot.
Silicone Oven Mitts: Cooking over a campfire gets really, really hot so you'll need some kind of mitts. I like the silicone ones because they don't get wet.
Easy Campfire Cooking: I get stuck in a rut with our camping menu. This book looks like it has a lot of great recipes!
S'mores Skewers and Hot Dog Forks: Obviously, you're going to want to make s'mores and maybe roast a hot dog or a brat. Heavy duty forks are the way to go.

text: Jamie Beisell, Former Student, Music Tech Of Minneapolis You were head of the keyboard department at Music Tech. I must say that you are one of the most influential and inspiring people in my life. Very cool dude! Mike Kovacs, Music Teacher, New York City A few years ago, I was placed in a composition class at Music Tech in Minneapolis. Within 10 minutes, everything I had learned about Music and composition from Rutgers University was upturned. Jim Oestereich's breath of knowledge, combined with his almost shamanistic teaching skill, changed my view on all I was taught. There is no other teacher with the knowledge, compassion, and understanding that I have ever met. I have seen him work with other students, as well as with the handicapped, and had my reality forever shifted. He's a teacher who can explain the basics to anyone of any age willing to learn, all the way to the most intricate and complicated Music Theory. Since being his pupil, I have set my standards according to what he has shown me and never looked back. There are people that call themselves teachers and are not teachers. There are people who call themselves teachers who try to teach. And then there is Jim Oestereich, the person to whom all teachers are measured against. Period. Jan Kinen, Retired English Instructor While in Boston I had the honor of observing Jim O teaching inner school children. In this particular lesson in the auditorium, they were to bring poems that they had written to the session. Jim, on the keyboard with a guitar accompanist, created a song on the spot and sang their poem with accompaniment. He did this for several of the children. One girl in particular that I remember seemed incredibly moved to hear her creation set to music. Other times I have observed Jim orchestrating entire plays. His enthusiasm is infectious. Beginning with the trumpet, his talents encompass piano, voice, and guitar to composition, performance and improvisation and on to classroom instruction and private lessons.

Ariana Grande appeared topless in a viral video showing the pop star's preparation for the Met Gala, and as the video spreads across social media, her fans are still raving about her Renaissance-inspired look for the annual event.
Though the Met Gala is now one week in the rear-view mirror, the footage of Ariana Grande's preparation just hit the internet and has made a splash across social media. As Grande shares her own pictures of the annual event, the behind-the-scenes footage showing the singer preparing to get into her dress shot received tens of thousands of user votes on the link-sharing site Reddit and was shared across Twitter and YouTube.
Ariana Grande wore a flowing dress to the event that took its inspiration from the Sistine Chapel and earned some big praise from fans and critics alike. Many put Grande among the best-dressed at the Met Gala, and red carpet pictures found a home on social media and celebrity news outlets.
Now, one week after the Met Gala, the topless footage of Ariana Grande is having just as big an impression. The grainy footage showed Grande joking with friends as she prepared to put on her dress.
As many commenters pointed out, Ariana Grande does not appear to actually be nude in the video, but instead is strategically covered by both her hands and decorative covering on her body. The video ends with Grande modeling the dress she would go on to wear at the event. It was not clear who may have filmed the video, but it appears to come from a member of the singer's own entourage.
The dress ended up being the talk of the event, and Ariana Grande explained that it was inspired by one of the most famous pieces of art in history.
"[It is in] the Sistine Chapel back wall by Michaelangelo. It is The Last Judgement. This is the painting I am wearing. I am so excited about my dress. I just love it!" Grande said in an interview with E! News. "I am honored to be here. It is my first Met so I am really excited."
Ariana Grande apparently took the theme of the event very seriously. This year's Met Gala was titled, Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination, and there was no Catholic art more famous than the one gracing the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel in Vatican City.
