Following lawyers and teachers' strike, and the civil strife in Bamenda and Buea, the Cameroon People's Democratic Movement Party worked in collaboration with the authorities to restore order and push for solutions to their demands.
At the behest of the Second Deputy Speaker, Hon. Emilia Monjowa Lifaka, the CPDM MPs of the troubled regions; North West and South West met with representatives of the lawyers, to listen, understand their problems and present a good argument to the government; a way out of the crisis. The MPs persuaded the lawyers to go to the table and talk with the authorities. But the meeting called by the Minister of State Minister of Justice and Keeper of the Seals Laurent Esso on Tuesday November 22, 2016, was boycotted by some factions of the legal core; the Common Law lawyers. While, the Minister of Justice thought his decisions and recommendations were going to sway the lawyers to stop the strike, they never moved a muscle.
As the CPDM MPs were battling with the lawyers strike, the Anglophone teachers in the North West and South West Regions went on strike on Monday November 21, 2016. Though some teachers, students and pupils went to class and schools opened, the strike paralyzed classes as of yesterday. The teachers undermined the recommendations to government of the inter-ministerial committee in charge of examining and proposing solutions to preoccupations raised by teacher's trade unions, headed by the Minster of Higher Education Jacques Fame Ndongo. While the Anglophone education family stayed home, youths in Bamenda took to the streets, it turned violent and the forces of law and order stepped-in robustly. The town came to a standstill, and one person "unfortunately" lost his life, according to the governor of the North West region Adolphe Lele Lafrique. Faced with this uprising, the Secretary General of the Central Committee Jean Nkuété dispatched a delegation of four to Bamenda; Political Bureau Member Regina Mundi, Questor at the National Assembly Njingum Musa, Enwe Francis MP for Momo West and Fru Jonathan Chargé de mission at the General Secretariat on Tuesday November 22. Their mission was to listen, understand and talk with the lawyers and teachers and report to the SG. On Monday November 28, the delegation was at the CC headquarters to report and explain their findings to Jean Nkuété. After the meeting, the delegation was redeployed to the North West Region.When the Prime Minister, Head of Government Philemon Yang was in Bamenda over the week-end for a dialogue with the lawyers, teachers and other stakeholders, the legal minds admitted in a final statement, signed on Friday November 25, that the diplomacy of CPDM central committee delegation lured them to the dialogue table. Meanwhile, the deputy speaker at the National Assembly and other MPs went to the South West Region over the week-end as has held talks with teachers, teachers, women's group and others. Also, we learnt that the senators of the two Anglophone regions met under the leadership of the CPDM Parliamentary group leader at the Senate Peter Mafany Musonge, on Thursday November 24, who said: "we are working at the background."

Hyderabad — A 32-year-old transgender-activist Chandramukhi M, who is contesting the 7 December Telangana Assembly elections, appeared before the police in Hyderabad after she reportedly went missing on Tuesday, police said Thursday.
Chandramukhi M, who is contesting on a CPI(M)-led Bahujan Left Front or BLF ticket from Goshamahal constituency in the city, allegedly went missing from her house and a 'case of missing person' was registered, they said.
Late Wednesday night, she appeared before police, but did not say where she had gone, assistant commissioner of police K Srinivasa Rao told PTI.
Chandramukhi also told police that she was safe, the official said.
After she reportedly went missing, Chandramukhi's friends from the transgender community lodged a complaint with the police, saying she was feared kidnapped and her mother was in a state of despair.
As an activist with 'Telangana Hijra Intersex Transgender Samiti' Chandramukhi had protested against the alleged atrocities on the transgender community.
Chandramukhi's decision to contest the polls was to uplift her community, her supporters have said.
"We fear for her safety and condemn the lack of protection for transgender candidates and women, which prevents them from joining politics," they said.

In the video, Big Cass tells a story about almost burning down his apartment while he was in NXT when he was rooming with Dean Ambrose. Cass was warming up a pizza in the oven and he accidentally fell asleep. Hours later he woke up and the apartment was filled with smoke. Cass noted that the entire apartment smelt like pizza for months, including clothes and the furniture.
"I was pretty nervous because I had just moved in with Dean Ambrose and he was on the road at the time," Cass recalled. "Now all of his clothes stink like pizza and I'm thinking, he's going to come home and be furious!"

"Learn how to turn frustration into fascination. You will learn more being fascinated by life than you will by being frustrated by it." _Jim Rohn
Simply stated, feeling frustrated is saying that we just don't like what life is handing us right now, today, this week, this year, this lifetime. Nothing wrong with that necessarily, but like so many other things, it's our response to frustrating events that makes the difference.
Let's take a closer look at how to get frustrated and then at a few more productive responses to frustration.
How to get frustrated
Take each and every obstacle that is thrown in your way very personally. Be convinced that the slow driver in front of you is doing it on purpose to you; perhaps he was even sent to find you.
Approach life with a strong sense of entitlement. Believe that you deserve to get your way no matter what.
Blow everything out of proportion. Frustrations come at us in varying degrees: On a scale from 1 to 10, 1 being the best and 10 being the worst, respond to every event as if it's a 10.
Live life in a constant state of stress, don't slow down, and definitely don't develop any patience.
Get addicted to the rush of anger that comes with frustration.
Consequences of frustration
Live in a state of perpetual anger.
Say and do things you later regret.
Face the same problems over and over again without ever discovering any solutions.
Eventually this level of stress will affect you physically in some way.
You teach your kids to react the same way.
How to get fascinated
Reframe obstacles as "challenging learning opportunities."
Ask better questions. Instead of asking "why does this always happen to me" or "how dare they do this," practice asking this question: "How can I creatively solve this in a way that I might learn something new and that will benefit myself and others.
Another good response would be: "Well, isn't this interesting. I wonder how we are going to solve this one?"
Stop reacting and respond. Reacting shuts down your brain. Responding jump-starts your creativity.
Stress management expert Tim O'Brien uses the QTIP technique: Quit Taking It Personally. I've actually suggested carrying a Q-tip in a pocket as a reminder. Sounds silly perhaps, but it works.
Look at the things that get in your way as simply events, nothing more. This one really saved me recently when I had spent hours on the previous three nights updating our Quickbooks files. Later, when I brought up the file, it looked as if we had lost hours of work and eight months of data.
I told myself, and my wife, that this was only an event. That allowed me to have the presence of mind to remember I have a friend who is an expert in Quickbooks. He showed us how to find the data. We solved the problem and diffused my urge to throw the computer out the window.
Like most things in life, we have a choice here. This time it's between frustration and fascination.
Choose wisely.

How condensed can I make my sectional activities?
Sectional activities need to average an hour a week, with the first and last activities being the full section duration apart. At Bronze level it is usual for activities to be weekly. For longer sections at Silver and Gold (potentially at Bronze depending on the activity) it can help for the activity to be longer (in terms of hours per session) but less often. This can be particularly good for the Volunteering section to allow participants to take on more interesting, challenging and responsible activities. In these cases, for example, a Gold programme lasting 12 or 18 months with a monthly activity of say six hours would be acceptable.
These kind of decisions must be made in reference to the individual, their overall programme and with the prior agreement of their DofE Leader/Licensed Organisation.

Salon Etiquette
For those have ever frequented a salon, you know the importance of salon etiquette, yet some of the most important principles can sometimes be forgotten in the shuffle of things. Make yourself familiar with the most important aspects of salon etiquette and keep a positive relationship between you and your hairstylists.
Running late
Everybody understands the problems that come with running late to any event. Sometimes the hair appointment is no different. If you are visiting a new salon for the first time, make a point to be on time, especially if this is your first time meeting a new stylist. After this, most people will understand if you are running a little bit behind. Try your best to make it there within at least 15 minutes, this is range that stylists will usually account for when scheduling out appointments.
With this in mind, be sure to cut your stylists some slack if they are running behind, whether they have another client in the seat or you get to the salon before them. There are magazines placed in a waiting room just for these instances. Take time to relax and prepare for your appointment.
Make sure that you give a proper tip, especially if you feel that the stylist has done an excellent job. It can be confusing to know an exact amount of tipping, although there are a few basic rules that should be followed. Don't be remembered as the one who gave a poor tip, but instead reward your stylist for the excellent work they have done.
In general, tip your stylist about 15 to 20 percent of what the final bill will be. This final price will vary depending on what you have done, and how long it took to complete. If there is a shampoo person there who also worked on your hair, consider giving them anywhere between one and five dollars. This gesture can go a long way.
If you had to reschedule, or were running very late and your stylists still took you in, consider leaving a larger tip. If the services you received weren't up to professional standards, consider what you will give them. Be fair and objective when giving a tip.
There are many different elements behind tipping, hair salons, and the way things are done. Make sure to Follow the rules of proper etiquette to have the best relationship with your hairstylist and get the best results.

Pakistani safe havens hinder Afghan war: US
Published: 25th April 2012 10:30 AM | Last Updated: 16th May 2012 07:44 PM | A+A A-
WASHINGTON: Pakistani safe havens and corruption are two factors retarding the progress of NATO forces in Afghanistan, according to a senior US military commander.
Pakistan represents a safe haven for terror groups working inside Afghanistan, Maj. Gen. John A. Toolan, commander of the 2nd marine division and the former commander of regional command-South West, told reporters Tuesday.
The problem of Pakistan frustrated him during his year-long tour in command of the region, he said noting that two places inside Pakistan that were particularly problematic are Chaman -- a Pakistani city near Spin Bolduk -- and Bahram Chah.
Chaman is a major port of entry on the road to Kandahar. It is free-flowing trade hub where the Taliban has built up huge caches of bomb-making material and supplies.
Bahram Chah is a hub where drugs go out of the country and lethal aid is coming in, Toonan said. "We saw it. We interdicted a lot," he said.
The problem is, he said, Pakistan has worries of its own and Balochistan, which borders Afghanistan's Helmand and Nimruz provinces, has its own separatist movement underway.
"The Pakistani military knows, "if they start doing things, they could stir up the Balochistan beehive, so they just sit there. And it's frustrating.
Diplomatic pressure on Pakistan is important, "but we don't want to break the Pakistani government," Toolan said.
"From my perspective as a military commander having to deal with the problem, it's like I can't shut the water off, I just keep mopping up the floor," Toolan said. "If I could turn the water off in Pakistan it would be a lot better."

Picasso's first visit to Rome, in February 1917, had originally been conceived as a wedding trip, but at the last moment his on-again, off-again mistress, Irène Lagut, who had promised to marry him, changed her mind, as had her predecessor, Gaby Lespinasse, the year before. Instead of Irène, Jean Cocteau accompanied Picasso. In a vain attempt to set himself at the head of the avant-garde, this ambitious young poet had inveigled Picasso into collaborating with him on Parade, a ballet about a couple of shills who lure the public into their vaudeville theater by tantalizing them with samples of their acts. Cocteau had desperately wanted Serge Diaghilev to stage this ballet in Paris, and Picasso's Chilean patron and mother figure, Eugenia Errázuriz, had persuaded the impresario to agree, provided Picasso did the décor, Erik Satie the score, and Léonide Massine the choreography. Sets, costumes, and rehearsals were to be done in Rome, where the impresario had his wartime headquarters.
Picasso's Cubist followers were horrified that their hero should desert them for the chic, elitist Ballets Russes, but he ignored their complaints. After two and a half years of war, with its appalling death toll, hardships and shortages, and above all the absence of some of his closest friends, who were at the front (notably fellow Cubist Georges Braque and the poet Guillaume Apollinaire, who both suffered severe head wounds), Picasso was elated at the prospect of leaving the war behind to spend a couple of months in the relative peace of Rome, which he had always wanted to see.
When he arrived there, he was still suffering from chagrin d'amour. Eager to find a replacement for the woman who had turned him down, he promptly fell for one of Diaghilev's Russian dancers, 25-year-old Olga Khokhlova. Although he courted her assiduously and did a drawing of her, Olga proved adamantly chaste. Chastity was a challenge that Picasso had seldom had to face. Diaghilev warned him that a respectable Russian woman would not sacrifice her virginity unless assured of marriage. Olga was indeed more respectable than the bohemian models of his past; she was the daughter of Stepan Vasilievich Khokhlov, who she always claimed was a general but who was in fact a colonel in the corps of engineers in charge of the railway system. Appointed to a post in the provinces in 1910, the colonel had taken his three sons and a second daughter with him, but had left Olga behind. Egged on by a friend's sister who had joined the Diaghilev ballet after graduating from the Imperial Ballet School, she decided to become a dancer.
Despite a late start at a St. Petersburg ballet school, Olga got an audition with Diaghilev. A daunting committee—besides Vaslav Nijinsky, the star dancer, it included Enrico Cecchetti, the greatest of classical ballet masters—put her through her paces and accepted her. Nijinsky was sufficiently impressed to pick her out of the corps de ballet. Massine, who had taken Nijinsky's place in Diaghilev's company as well as in his heart, had chosen Olga to play a role in Les Femmes de Bonne Humeur, based on a comedy by the 18th-century Italian playwright Goldoni, with sets by Léon Bakst. At a rehearsal for this ballet, Picasso spotted Olga and set about courting her. To familiarize himself with the techniques of theatrical décor and observe his new love dance, he helped the scene painters execute Bakst's designs. To watch Olga backstage, Picasso even helped the stagehands at the ballet's premiere. Fifteen months later, Picasso would marry Olga.
Ten years younger than Picasso, Olga had fine features, dark-reddish hair, green eyes, a lithe body, and a look of wistful, Swan Lake melancholy. Photographs reveal her to have been a beauty—an unsmiling one as a rule, although in early snapshots with Picasso and Cocteau in Rome she is actually grinning. The celebrated ballerina Alexandra Danilova declared that Olga "was nothing—nice but nothing. We couldn't discover what Picasso saw in her." On the other hand, Lydia Lopokova—the most intelligent of Diaghilev's ballerinas—was Olga's best friend in the company. Besides being challenged by Olga's virginal stance, Picasso sensed the victim within. Her vulnerability would have appealed to his possessiveness and protectiveness—especially when the Russian Revolution cut her off from her family—and also to his sadistic side. (Picasso expected the women in his life to read the works of the Marquis de Sade.) His desperation at being rejected by the two women he had hoped to marry should also be taken into account. He was 35 and wanted to settle down with a presentable wife and have a son.

Introduction: No-Cook Edible Fake Blood for Mouth Wounds, Etc.
Fake blood can be a real challenge---too red, too clear, too...fake. But this recipe is thick, you don't have to cook, is totally safe to eat and not too many ingredients -- unfortunately they probably won't be found right in your cupboard unless you live w/ grandma. So sometimes its easier to buy fake blood capsules and be done but if that's not feasible cuz it's 3am or you live in a small town, go to the grocery store and make this.
Credits: This recipe is inspired by horror- sci-fi Troma film director, Lloyd Kaufman's recipe in his book "Make Your Own Damn Movie." Unfortunately his didn't do it for me so, thanks Lloyd, I had to Make My Own Damn Fake Blood recipe too.
Step 1: Ingredients
You will need:
Food Coloring : Red and Blue
LIGHT Karo (or other brand) corn syrup
mixing bowl
*optional measuring cup and spoons
Step 2: Coloring
I started with 20mL of corn syrup because the red food coloring does NOT go far. I don't need tons, I just need it for some knocked out teeth in an upcoming short. This guide is therefor based on 20mL (less than 1/8cup) of corn syrup.
You will need to drop in 50, yes fifty, drops of red. It takes a lot to lose the clear brightness of the food coloring. The blue is the special ingredient (thanks Lloyd). But be careful. Use only 1 or 2 drops of blue. It turns burgundy-blueberry pie filling looking quick and then you have to start over. So:
1 or 2 drops of Blue per 50 drops of Red.
Step 3: Adding Flour
The flour will really help the blood lose its transparency. Add it slow because it gums up and you'll have to add more corn syrup and food coloring if you add too much.
I started with 1/2 tsp of flour, mixed it in and sprinkled more in until it was no longer clear but still syrupy.
Step 4: Mix and Go!
Mix it up and pour it into an airtight container and its ready to take on location!
Step 5: Gross!
Smear it all over your mouth and cry in pain when the direction yells, "ACTION"

Wanting to try putting a drizzle of this on my cupcakes.
edible.....but does it taste good?
hello it uses corn syrup! of course it does!
No comment...
weirdo JK
You can also buy fake blood from Gravity & Momentum. Non toxic and won't stain, plus you don't have to spend a bunch of time and make a mess in your kitchen.
You know if you add flavoring it would taste so bad. Like say you were to use this as a drink for a vampire or such
Add caffeine powder and then you'll get a rush from drinking it :D
Just a suggestion, but to get the blood darker without having to use a boat-load of red dye, try adding a little bit of chocolate syrup or chocolate sauce. It adds some darkness to the mixture AND improves the flavour! (Provided you like chocolate, that is.)
i havent yet tried using this, and i was just wondering would it be cheaper for me to buy all the ingrediants to make this or just buy the blood capsules?? and if i did choose to make this, would any of the ingrediants irritate my eczema??
I've used maple syrup and it worked really well, the darkness of it actually helps with getting the "blood" colour right.
HA can you use maple syrup as an alternative just for taste wise?
its not, there two different things
they dont sell corn syrup here in the uk, but you can use liquid glucise as a substitute
Oh great, we have all the ingredients, I guess my mom is actually my grandmother.
I did this years ago and it was good, but sticky. And I HATE sticky. I'm almost positive it was the same recipe too, but maybe I'm wrong and this isn't as sticky.
corn syrup is sitcky
Uuuuuhhh Yeah... so is blood
Do I here the strains of Duelling Banjos in the background?
No, Because it is not found.... : )
crap im on my phone on this on my way to a and e because of this

PA Wire/PA Images
Premier League clubs have voted unanimously to resume contact training as 'Project Restart' took a giant step forwards. After starting with small, socially-distanced training sessions, players and managers from the 20 top-flight clubs were briefed on proposals for the reintroduction of contact training on Tuesday.
The matter was voted on the following day by Premier League shareholders and has been given the green light as a mid-June return edges closer.
In a statement, the league said: "Premier League shareholders today voted unanimously to resume contact training, marking another step towards restarting the Premier League season, when safe to do so.

Andrew Noorman
Programming and Wellness Specialist
Andrew Noorman says, "Helping others help themselves is my pride and joy." Andrew has a degree in Interdisciplinary Health Services, with a double minor in Social Work and Addiction Studies, so he's well suited to his role as Programming and Wellness Specialist at our John Street men's facility. He graduated from Western Michigan University in 2013.
Andrew is a person in long term recovery himself. He says, "I will forever be grateful that I found a life in recovery. And I want to share my 'experience, strength, and hope' with others. If I can give at least one-person hope, then I've done my job for the day." Andrew thinks of Sanford House as a family and a brotherhood. He often tells the men at Sanford House at John Street to start, "Being comfortable with being uncomfortable. If you're not uncomfortable, then you're not growing." Another favorite quote of Andrew's is, "If you do good things, good things will happen!"
Living a healthy life-style has been a huge part of Andrew's recovery. And he sells the importance of exercise and fitness to Sanford clients. Every week he facilitates psycho-education groups on health and wellness. He also oversees programming at the men's house.
Sports are a big part of Andrew's life. He played hockey growing up and he's a die-hard Red Wings fan. Besides watching sports in his free time, you will find him cuddled up next to Chloe (his boxer) on the couch – getting a well deserved rest.
Andrew says, "My recovery must come first so that everything I love in life doesn't have to come last."

Illuminati Revisited..
Ok I was looking over a video that gave me more insight about the infamous illuminati..
And I do have to say, it was tripped out to the max, filled with a lot of crazy ideologies, suggestive notions, and a lot of satanic practices and rituals.
(even the 'beloved' lady holding the lit torch that appears before the movie starts, is a "satanic symbol"… Dam what other 'secrets' that are cleverly hidden right in front of people's faces?)
Now the thing is about these guys, is their leaders that "basically" established the group or rather cult or sect.
So these guys are the "founding fathers", of the cult itself and it might mess with your head (unless of course you are part of the illuminati group yourself), and you might have a much different outlook when you get a closer look into what they are all about.
And the leaders where just way out there with their beliefs and values, the way they view the world, the way they criticize the world and others, and they feel that everybody on the planet that is not singing the same tune to what is dictated by the illuminati, should be persecuted (killed off).
(Aleister Crowley young adult : picture left)
Now it does seems very disturbing to hear this, but it is something that needs to be discussed about I feel so hence the post that is being written as I "hash out" the details.
Prince's conception about the illuminati, was just the tip of the.. Iceberg is too small for that sentence, ok I'll make one up.
Was just the tip of the Mountain top.. yea that sounds large enough LOL.
His ideal about the planes flying over-head across towns, and shooting out chemtrails is a sound theory indeed.
He was saying 'indirectly', that the government is not in our favor.
It never has been.. And it sure in h**l never will be. Especially when I lay out some things about this clouded mystery of the on-goings, of the satanic cult group and the things that they say that will have you sh**ing in your pants and that's not meant to be funny.. It's just a fact.
|Aleister Crowley
Believer In The Workings Of The Occult Group Illuminati
|The Great "Beast" 666 (which he is referred to by most)
|Aleister Crowley was born into wealth, his family had money. But Crowley was not contempt with his (silver-plattered) type life style. At a young age, he would show interest into the group that is wrapped up in so much "controversy" called "The Illuminati".
Illuminati: which means "holders of the light", was a given term by Lucifer himself.
So if anybody was wondering what the name means when you hear that word, you know it means just pure evil.
Crowley was just one of many that was involved with this group, and they would do some really twisted things that many would probably bend over a garbage can and just let loose the puke juice.
And the inner workings of the group was equally disturbing, because it involved people in high places, either in politics, religion, science, & the kicker even some of the former CEO's of the "White House" was apparently a part of it as well.
Starting to feel disturbed, I don't blame you much and yea.. It's more to follow..
I remember back in 1988, I was in high-school, and we had a visit from Arnold Schwarzenegger & George Bush Sr. that was running for the presidency back then.
And the weird thing about George Bush Sr when I watched the video last night about the illuminati, and Bush's apparent ties with the group itself made me question the "over-all" security of the country itself. It was suggested also that Bush Sr. wasn't who he appears to be, (watch the video and you'll see.)
So it is no secret about what his Son Bush Jr. that was believed to have had a hand in which involved millions of people losing their lives in the tragic events of 9/11. And until this day, a shroud of huge controversy still hinges after that horrific day.
Those that couldn't see it, were not "deemed a threat", but for those that knew what was going on (I mean people who were on the
far inside of the facts) were told to shut-up and not say anything or it could be severe consequences that would follow as a result.
(Osama Bin-Ladin & Saddam Hussein : picture right)
Even when Saddam Hussein was brought down, it wasn't because Hussein was committing, genocidal crimes. It was the fact that he was looked at by the illuminati, as a "big-time" threat. And the same goes for Bin-Ladin.
Because remember the illuminati wants a new world order, so they do not want anybody to challenge them in any way, shape, or form to stop them from doing so.
You might be starting to see the whole picture, now that I have pointed that key phrase out to you.
This doesn't even include the speculations about UFO's, God, the Devil, or believe it or not even technology in terms of it's true origins.
I talked about the death ray, and how Hitler was so desperate to get his grubby hands on it. Thankfully he never had the chance..
But he too had ties with the illuminati, most people probably didn't know that and the list gets longer & longer.
The watergate scandal, had ties with it in the shadows so the people where completely being lied to about Nixon's true reasons for being a part of one of the biggest presidential scandals of all time. Nor Nixon's membership with the illuminati.
Then there were just things about theories of the appearance of UFO's, Roswell's ever so popular "Area 51" that is so "top secreted" that even the iconic cartoon super-sleuth "Secret Squirrel," could not even begin to try to squeeze a walnut out of even if Atom Ant's life depended on it.. LOL s**t.
Oh yea the famous "alien autopsy", that was shot by video footage back then LOL.. I think you know the answer to that if it was real or
And yea even NASA, plays a part in all of this LOL.. Have you heard why they would not even think to go back to the Moon? Yea that's a whole different story all together right there..
So do this, watch the video and make your own opinion as to what you really think about the secretive society, and then think about America and other countries' agendas.
The agendas that they have for us, our future, and if we can do anything about it to stop it..
Listen before you watch the documentary, if you don't have the stomach to what you will being seeing and hearing then don't watch it.
Ok I think I touched up on enough about this topic.. See ya later..

Charles Partridge Adams from the Andreas, Hill, & Loo Collections
November 11, 2006 - January 27, 2007
Famous for painting mountain scenes with dramatic stormy skies of brilliant sunlight, Charles Partridge Adams (1858-1942) is considered to have been Colorado's finest landscape painter. He was particularly skilled at catching the fleeting yet dynamic light associated with Colorado sunrises and sunsets. Like most fine artists, Adams was keenly observant and sensitive to his subject: noticing the way a strong wind turns up the silvery underside of willow leaves, how the morning sun would shine on an October snow and how the lower branches of young cottonwood trees bend down toward the ground. (right: Charles Partridge Adams, Pikes Peak)
Adams moved to Denver, Colorado at 18. Upon settling in Denver, he found work at the Chain & Hardy bookstore. He received his first, and only art training from the owner's wife, Helen Chain. Mrs. Chain, a former pupil of George Inness, provided instruction and encouragement to the young artist and introduced him to other artists in the area including Alexander Phimister Proctor.
Proctor and Adams developed a friendship, and the pair embarked on a three-month camping trip in Egeria Park, Colorado. In addition to exploring, both artists did quite a bit of sketching on the trip. After their return to Denver, Adams and Proctor shared a studio for a short period of time before Proctor moved to New York. Adams remained in Denver and after a short stint as an art teacher, he studied wood engraving with Major J.M. Bagley. He quickly abandoned the engraving for health reasons and began working in crayon.
His business card read "Landscapes and Crayon Portraits," though he much preferred landscapes. The artist soon made a name for himself in Denver. He established a wealthy clientele that purchased a number of his paintings to decorate their homes and to give as Christmas gifts.
In 1890, Adams married Alida Joslin Reynolds and the couple honeymooned in Estes Park, Colorado. That same year, he exhibited for the first time at the National Academy of Design. Three years later, the artist opened his first studio on Larimer Street in Denver. He began working in watercolor and had success in the new medium selling his paintings in stores in Colorado Springs, Pueblo, Kansas City, and Chicago. Also in 1893, Adams became a charter member of the Denver Artists Club.
In 1905, the couple's dream of living in Estes Park was realized when Adams completed construction on a home and studio there. Adams referred to the studio as "The Sketch Box" and the family summered there every year.(left: Charles Partridge Adams, Mount Aeolus & Las Animas Canyon)
Though Adams is best known for his Colorado landscapes, he also painted in Yellowstone, the Tetons, the Canadian Rockies, the New Mexican Desert, and California. In 1914, the couple sailed to Europe where they spent five months touring. Three years later, Charles suffered from a near-fatal illness.
In 1920, Adams moved to California where he opened a studio first in Pasadena and later in Laguna Beach where he remained until his death. He became a member of the Laguna Beach Art Association and began painting marine subjects.
During his lifetime he completed several thousand paintings, but he did not document his paintings so the actual number he created is unknown. Examples of his work can be found in Colorado at the University of Colorado at Boulder, the Denver Museum, and the Denver Art Association, as well as among numerous private collectors. It is also at the San Diego Woman's Club.
Sangre de Cristo Arts & Conference Center expresses thanks Steve & Connie Andreas, Lyda Hill and Kathy Loo who have loaned Adams' works from their private collections to augment those of the Sangre de Cristo Arts Center. The exhibit is on display in the Hoag Gallery.

It's been an interesting few weeks, watching bitcoin's rollercoaster ride as it rises to valuations over $4,000 and then dives to almost $2,000 before rising again to near $6,000.
This is for an asset that just a year ago you could have purchased for a few hundred dollars. The rise of cryptocurrency valuations is confusing and fuelled by everything from China and Russia trying to ban the asset, to forks that offer you free cash and coins.
It is for these reasons that Jamie Dimon (CEO, JP Morgan) calls bitcoin a fraud …
… and Gottfried Leibbrandt (CEO, SWIFT) gets a big laugh from bankers by talking about bitcoin whilst showing tulips on a slide.
Bankers may laugh at bitcoin but they're obviously conflicted. On the one hand, Goldman Sachs says that bitcoin is less reliable as an investment than gold, and then considers the launch of a new trading operation focused on bitcoin; whilst Morgan Stanley CEO James Gorman says that bitcoin is "certainly something more than just a fad."
Maybe that's because bitcoin was recently peaking at a market cap of almost $100 billion, making it more valuable than the market cap of Goldman Sachs or Morgan Stanley. And you do have to ask why JP Morgan is trading bitcoins on behalf of clients when Jamie Dimon said he would fire anyone at the bank trading in them.
It's nice therefore to see some rationale in this haven of confusion. Adam Lutwin, CEO and co-founder of Chain, writes on Medium:
Let me start by stating that I believe:
- The market for cryptocurrencies is overheated and irrationally exuberant
- There are a lot of poseurs creating them, and some scammers, too
- There are a lot of conflicts of interest, self-serving hype, and obfuscation
- Very few people in the media understand what's going on
- Very few people in finance understand what's going on
- Very few people in technology understand what's going on
- Very few people in academia or government understand what's going on
- Very few people buying cryptocurrencies understand what's going on
- It's very possible I don't understand what's going on
- Banks and governments aren't going away
- Traditional software isn't going away
It's a long piece that concludes with:
- Cryptocurrencies (which I prefer to call crypto assets) are a new asset class that enable decentralized applications
- Decentralized applications enable services we already have today, like payments, storage, or computing, but without a central operator of those services
- This software model is useful to people who need censorship resistance which tend to be people that are either off the grid or who want to be off the grid
- Most everyone else is better off using normal applications because they are 10x better on every other dimension, at least for now
Meantime, back in Jamie Dimon's office …

Even though some people tend to be of the view that thesis writing is not a challenging task, the fact remains that writing a thesis is one of the most challenging project that any given student will every undertake. The reason why that is the case is due to the fact that; it is the most largest piece of work that will be carried out by anyone during the course of the study, it involves data collection, it is carried out in phases, and demands awareness of various data analysis techniques. on the other hand, writing a recommendation letter could also be challenging even though somehow easy than a thesis.
Due to various challenges that are encountered in the process of dissertation writing and editing, it is recommended that anyone embarking on this journal allocates sufficient time and other resources to the process. The same is however not the case for those who want cheap reference letter as this only requires the letter written by an employer or a individual who knows you and has a clear understanding of what you have achieved in the past and what you have the potential to achieve in the future.
A cheap reference letter could be offered by a former lecturer, current employer, or even former employer whom you left on good terms. Just as is the case with dissertation writing and editing, proper instructions needs to be given to the person who is writing the letter since the instructions given will determine the type of work that you will end up receiving. For example, if you need the letter for a job application, ensure that you specify the job that you are applying for as that will give the person writing the letter the things that he/she should write about you in the reference letter.
In summation, it can be pointed out that in any form of writing whether it is dissertation writing and editing, or even cheap reference letter, there is need for proper planning since completing such writing tasks in a hurry will result to the write ups provided being of low quality. Thus, once one establishes that these tasks will be required, it is proposed that one commences the planning on how the writing will be done.

HONG KONG — It may not be everyone's idea of a dream home, but for bargain hunters in Hong Kong's turbocharged property market apartments that belonged to the recently deceased are proving irresistible -- and the more gruesome the occupant's demise the better.
Popular belief in a city awash with superstition runs that the ghost of a person who dies in unnatural circumstances -- a suicide, murder or bad accident -- inhabits their home, passing misfortune onto the new occupants.
The threat carries weight in a city where feng shui consultants do brisk business; families placate the "hungry ghosts" of their ancestors with offerings and people even refrain from whistling in the street in fear of disturbing lurking spooks.
By law, buyers are entitled to details on so-called "haunted houses" -- or hongza in Cantonese -- and many rigorously check the backstory to their potential purchase.
Full story in the link.

I guess everyone isn't "All In," Auburn family.
Offensive coordinator Gus Malzahn is taking a $550,000 pay cut to become the new head coach at Arkansas State. To answer your first question, ASU's mascot is the Red Wolf. To answer your other question: yes, the only advancement Malzahn is making with this change of scenery is that he'll be running his own ship instead of having another coach steer.
A year ago, he reportedly turned down a $3 million contract to become the head coach at Vanderbilt. Is it equivalent to becoming the Oklahoma head coach? No, but it's surely better than Arkansas State, isn't it?
More: Which top juniors should jump to the NFL?
Sure, everyone has to start somewhere if they want to become a head coach, and most coaches' first time at the helm is at a smaller school. But why did Malzahn turn down the big job a year ago if that's what he truly wanted?
Did he really think that he could continue winning with an offense that suddenly didn't have Cam Newton at the quarterback position? I know coaches are stubborn, but did he honestly see Barrett Trotter leading the offense the same way Newton did?
I had this discussion with a fellow co-worker today. He's an Auburn grad, and like me, he couldn't come up with any reasons why this made sense. After about five minutes of discussing the topic, we gave up and figured it must be the fault of Malzahn's crazy wife.
But is it possible that Malzahn really doesn't want the pressure of a big-time job, and he's willing to give money back to try being the head honcho at a smaller school? This was a guy that many thought would be an assistant coach in the NFL, if not a head coach at a major college football program. Auburn defensive coordinator Ted Roof departed days earlier to accept the head coaching spot at UCF … did that have anything to do with Malzahn's exit?
As you can see, I'm grasping at straws. It would be nice if Malzahn sat down with ESPN or a sports writer to clear the air and let us in on the reasons why he left Auburn for Arkansas Freakin' State. After Auburn's national title year, I thought he would make a great head coach at a school like Vanderbilt or Ole Miss.
Or maybe Malzahn is just afraid of the SEC. Yeah … I'm sure that explains it.

Culture Trip stands with
Black Lives Matter
Michael Rajab, Nathan Slater, Leo Salvo and Jaime Carrasco have mastered the core and soul of Spanish-Arabian music like no other. Performing regularly at Bourke Street in Melbourne, this band is believed to captivate the audience more than any other live performances. They seem to find a distinct adrenaline rush while performing in areas new and unrehearsed. The tunes create an aura that makes it next to impossible to not be mesmerised by their mystical world of melody.
There's a lot about Australia that enthuses this band. They passionately compose, create and recreate some of the finest music, keeping in mind the rich heritage and culture behind it. The most admirable aspect is that all four come from different origins with different histories. It is a collaboration of Lebanese, South American and local talents brought up in Australia. It is a breath-taking amalgamation of creativity and instinctive knowledge. Michael says, 'We have a song for every mood, and we can express romance, sensuality and joy in our songs!'
From acoustic guitar to bass guitar, djembe, tambourine and more, these phenomenal artists mix authentic and cultural Spanish instruments flawlessly. These songs can make your feet tap on the floor like trained dancers or can lift up your mood on a dull, gloomy day. Sometimes the rare tunes of melancholy cause goose bumps as they touch your heart. But most importantly, their music has a sense of innocence, just like their love for it.
They have performed in various parts of Australia, including Melbourne and Canberra, with a highlight being when they performed at the 'Kangaroo Island FEASTival' in front of esteemed guests such as celebrity chef Matt Moran and other celebrities. They also launched their first album Gypsy Flamenco, which describes their style of songs. With admirers from various parts of the world, La Rumba is finally branching out to international cities, the first being Dubai. People will be enthused and energised by one of their performances — the music is brilliant, fresh and simple; the songs sharp and fascinating; the performance cutting and dazzling. La Rumba is the real deal.
Even though they are an established band, they like to draw the attention of their fans by performing on Bourke Street on the weekends. They also have gigs at Vamos in Melbourne CBD. Give your ears an Español-Arabian treat!

In what surely must be the first published paper to have a list of authors longer than the abstract, 41 scientists led by Peter Schulte recently concluded that the extinction of the dinosaurs was indeed the result of the Chicxulub impact off the Yucatan Penninsula 65.5 million years ago (abstract).
Wait a minute – hasn't this idea been kicking around for at least 30 years now? How is this in any way 'new' news?
Well, one reason may stem from a name that isn't included among the 41: Gerta Keller of Princeton University. Over the past several years she has written a number of both intriguing and controversial articles that call into question the assumed, prominant role of the Chicxulub impact: namely the double-edged sword of it predating the K-Pg boundary by 300,000 years, and Deccan volcanism playing the pivotal role in the mass extinction.
Though the general public is largely unaware of the debate, that has not had any bearing on the impact of Keller's research within the scientific community. Given some of the reaction to it, I have to wonder if this latest paper is more of a public relations, 'consensus' tactic than anything else (certainly critics of Keller such as Philippe Claeys are among its authors).
If so, it's working wonders. Consider headlines such as this one from Scientific American:
"A Theory Set in Stone: An Asteroid Killed the Dinosaurs, After All – A single asteroid impact near the Yucatan remains the best explanation for the massive Cretaceous-Paleogene extinction, scientists conclude in a new, deep review."
Or how about quotes like this from the LA Times which proclaim a 'Dream Team' conclusion:
"It's official: The extinction of the dinosaurs and a host of other species 65.5 million years ago was caused by a massive asteroid that crashed into the Gulf of Mexico, creating worldwide havoc, an international team of researchers said Thursday."
That said, the review is an excellent one. My only complaint is that being a Science article it's very short – a 15-20 pager would be nice! – though the supplemental material is a valuable addition. If you have access or are willing to toss down a few bucks, I urge you to check it out.
On a semi-related note, anyone else slightly disconcerted by seeing "K-Pg" instead of "K-T"?

My Spanish is really rudimentary but I *think* "Agua Luna" means water moon… or perhaps it's supposed to be moon water. In any case, this off-grid octagonal cabin is located in the area of Terlingua Ranch in west Texas. (Terlingua = earth tongue??)
It's kind of an odd dwelling, but it is indeed a house for humans – or a getaway cabin if you don't want to do the off-grid goat-herding thing year round. It has no electrical service or public water or sewer, but it does have solar and wind power and a rain catchment system.
Have a peek inside…
(I love how the chimney snakes up to exit through the center eye of the octagonal roof.)
The house comes fully furnished with wind powered appliances.
There is a bathroom, but it is rustic…
That is a composting toilet behind the wooden soaking tub.
The lone bedroom appears to be open to the rest of the house…
And arches are a recurring theme inside and out…
The price of this home was recently slashed from $129,900 to $99,000. It comes with a total of 170 acres of rocky west Texas hills.
It may not be huge, but it is charming – in a southwestern UFO kind of way…
This is great property but, I do have one pet peeve —
— Don't put humans in the listing photos! (We're not buying a cowgirl – we're buying that sunset view!)
For all the details on this unique west Texas home, see here.
Sorry no post yesterday… sometimes a person just needs to nap in a warm bed.
That's my philosophy in life: nap when you're tired, eat when you're hungry, and the rest will fall into place.
Well, it's a little more complicated than that, but it helps to think simply.
In truth, I am trying to spread things out on my blog at the end of the month because I always manage to exceed my bandwidth (the Word-Press theme I'm running seems to be the issue for those of you who are technically inclined). The big-bad-bandwidth issue "disappeared" my site for a few looooong hours yesterday and that was very frustrating, to say the least.
I am looking at some options so that my blog does not run into this problem anymore… unfortunately, that means forking over more cash.

The new six-story structure houses two separated retail spaces on ground level, as well as 120 covered parking stalls. Each of the 72 units features their own private deck. The area above the covered parking would be transformed into an outdoor green space, maintaining a sense of separation and openness between the two buildings.

What it Takes to Dissertate
College of Education faculty and students share with rising graduate students about the dissertation process and what it takes to maintain life balance while pursuing a doctoral degree.
If you've ever considered pursuing graduate school, one of your early thoughts may have been about the increased workload and high levels of self-discipline it takes to succeed. Graduate school provides students with the opportunity to further their expertise, study alongside experts in their field and learn more about a research area that really interests them.
This is especially true while in a doctoral program and working toward completing your dissertation research.
To provide guidance to graduate students who are not only interested in pursuing a doctoral degree but who are also preparing to begin their dissertations, the College of Education Graduate Student Council hosted a panel discussion in May titled "What it Takes to Dissertate."
Comprised of a group of USF faculty, post-doctoral fellows and current doctoral students, each panelist shared what they wish they had known when they began their academic careers and dissertation research.
Your dissertation research is work that you do — but it doesn't define you.
As a graduate student, you will explore many areas of interest that may or may not turn into a hands-on research project. As a doctoral student, your dissertation will seem like a labor of love, but it's not the entirety of the work you're pursuing now or in the future.
Instead, it's wise to think of your dissertation as a jumping off point, said Diana Socie, PhD, a post-doctoral fellow in the College of Education's School Psychology program.
"I sort of thought 'This is it! I have to do everything I ever wanted to do in this one thing,'" Socie said. "It's so not that on the other side."
Scale back your inhibitions about what your dissertation can become
When starting your dissertation research, the hope is that you will be passionate about your work. Having passion for a topic may tempt you to think big, but it's important to keep your goals realistic and attainable.
Doctoral student and soon-to-be graduate Nicholas Bardo said it took some time before this reality sunk in. Remembering that his faculty mentors wanted him to graduate and take on something manageable helped him keep a realistic perspective while pursuing his work.
"It took a lot of other people telling me this to finally realize that maybe they have a point here," Bardo shared. "I'm not going to solve every mystery of the universe by myself, so I might as well break it down a little bit and try to take heed of all of these accomplished academics and their insights."
Take ownership of the work – it's yours
As a doctoral student, you will be heavily reliant on your major professor and the talented individuals who make up your dissertation committee – at times they may even feel like a lifeline. But there comes a point in your dissertation when you become the expert, said Sara Smith, PhD, an assistant professor of Foreign Language and ESOL Education.
It's great to get all of the advice from your mentors ahead of time, she says, but there will become a point where you are the captain of the ship.
"You're the expert," Smith said. "You know more than anyone else about this project you've been working on. Enjoy that moment and be ready to take charge when the moment comes."
Rejection comes with the discipline – but it doesn't mean you won't succeed
Research publications and grant providers receive more proposals than they can accept, and with this reality comes another one – rejection happens to everyone in their academic careers.
While it may be easy to get discouraged, Assistant Professor of School Psychology Nathaniel von der Embse, PhD, says keeping that reality in mind helped him while working to overcome the inevitable failures.
"One thing that has really stuck with me throughout my academic travels that was engrained in me early on by my mentors and advisors is that you are not your writing," von der Embse said. "It didn't really make sense to me until (after) multiple, multiple failures and lots and lots of rejection."
The dissertation process does not have to be a lonely process
It can be easy to fall into a slump while working on your dissertation. You will spend many hours researching, coding, writing and editing, and this process can begin many, many times over as you receive feedback from your mentors.
Recent studies suggest that graduate students may be at a greater risk of experiencing mental health issues, potentially because of the isolated feeling many students may have throughout their studies and the pressure they face when having to advocate for themselves in the academic job market.
Erika Roland, a doctoral candidate in the Educational Leadership program, says she works to combat these feelings through a self-created "board of directors" — a network of close friends who each help her in unique ways, such as helping her take breaks, unpacking her thoughts and providing the support all graduate students need to complete their final product.
"I think that the anxiety can get to people sometimes. Self-care (is important)," she said. "I think if you just take that in and build a board of directors, it helps along the way."
Support can also be found through online networks such as Facebook groups and through on campus student organizations like the College of Education's Graduate Student Council.

Have you guys seen Google today? I might have beat you to it on account of being ahead of most of you time-wise 😉
Today is the birthday of Swedish born Gideon Sundback who invented the zipper between 1906 and 1914 – although it didn't catch on in the fashion industry for another 20 years!
Thanks Mr Sundback and Happy Birthday! 🙂

PEYRON, Jean François Pierre
Belisarius receiving Hospitality from a Peasant who has served under his orders
Jean-François Peyron was one of the great Neoclassical French painters before David became a confirmed figure. The story of Belisarius is one of the exemplary anecdotes which served to enhance the virtue of the men of Antiquity to have them serve as models for the generation before the Revolution. A glorious Byzantine general, Belisarius lost his sight and was reduced to begging in the street until one of his soldiers recognised him and invited him to his home. Dated to 1781, the piece presents all the characteristics of Neoclassicism: a frieze compostion in front of an Antique ornamental decor, the sobriety of the expressions, the austerity of the colours. A young Ingres copied this piece in a drawing he did during his Toulousan training.

I would argue that Amazon is it's own little self-care hub…in it's own little way. I derive a ton of pleasure perusing their offerings and spending all. the. money. And now that Prime Day is upon us, I'm totally making a list and checking it twice. Because, let's face it, Amazon Prime Day is essentially a holiday, at least in my world.
To start, if you're not a Prime member (GASP!) then I suggest getting a free 30 day trial so you can participate in Amazon Prime Day (only members get the deals!). Prime Day starts at 3pm on Monday, July 15 and will last 36 hours.
Then, it's time to hop on over to their dedicated page and check out the deals. Many only last 24 hours and you want to be quick. Others are going on now like $30 off Certified Refurbished Kindle Paperwhites and 40% off some women's fashion.
Download the Amazon App to get a sneak peek into Prime Day deals at the Amazon App. You will get notified when deals start by adding items to your shopping list at the app. Visit "amazon.com/app" from your mobile browser to get started.
Things to check out:
Yoga and workout gear – in fact, some items are already on sale.
Fashion Two of my favorite dresses are Amazon purchases, including the cute green number below. (I'm on the right.) They have a great selection and if you're nervous about shopping clothes online, be sure and check out Prime Wardrobe.
Even make-up and skincare will go on sale during Prime Day. Been wanting to try that new, pricey night cream? You might just luck out. Just keep refreshing the beauty tab.
I've read eight books in the last three weeks and it's been awesome. I'll be on the lookout on the BOOKS tab to see what I can snag.
Love historical fiction? Check out these recommendations.
And if you don't mind reading on a device, you can get a month free of Kindle Unlimited!
When I'm stressed out, there is nothing better than putting on some music. In fact, I try to have music on as much as possible – it just generally puts me in a better mood. (Or when I'm in a foul mood I listen to angry, chick rock – still makes me feel better.) As part of Prime Day celebrations, you can get 4 months of Amazon Music Unlimited for only $0.99 (regularly $7.99 per month for Prime and $9.99 for non-Prime!) It's totally worth it!
You guys – there are so many other things that could help your Take Back Me journey — think journals and notebooks, supplements, and so much more. And feel free to find my person recommendations in my Amazon Storefront, where I share some of my favorite Amazon finds: https://www.amazon.com/shop/erinclane – think coffee mugs, books and other fun things.
Have fun shopping and let me know if you find any super awesome deals!!

so, can Boris visit again his own shop in NY or is he another victim ?
so, can Boris visit again his own shop in NY or is he another victim ?
Actually interesting to see that you would compare 11BBS to HBA, because it is not the first time that I have seen this comparison being made (think the other time I saw it was on Hypebeast). Just would like to know why exactly you think 11BBS gone wrong?
There is a lot, weak graphics supported by superficial concepts, terrible lookbooks and silhouettes, epileptic website, cringe videos like this https://vimeo.com/195657835
Basically they are having trouble with direction which is a pity, because the resources are there, the quality is there, but hey - that's just my point of view, maybe it sells great and they just want a completely different outlet. It's just very underwhelming compared to what Boris is doing with his mainline.
The lookbooks from SS16 are not good, but as i already said in a previous post, there's always some nice individually pieces to buy from 11 collection.
HBA for me is really horrendous, there's nothing without prints, words, logos, lines ecc ecc
"I'm not working in the mainstream, i'm working on the side street, side dark street, it is quite comfortable." [Yohji Yamamoto]
I definitely have to say I agree with you man. I personally cannot see 11BBS going in the same direction as HBA just simply because it sits on a much more stable foundation. HBA was built solely off of hype and excessive branding to the point where its just obnoxious with most of its customer base being kids who's attraction to the brand died off when the hype did. On the other hand when I look at 11BBS, based on quality and construction alone it is evidence that it still maintains a strong connection to the mainline which I am sure many people on this forum will agree that it is a solid brand. But despite my love for Boris and his work I have to admit that 11BBS still seems to me to be a work in progress, as if it is still trying to find itself through trial and error. Anyways if he just bumps up the consistency and solidify the brand, I will continue to be a sucker for it. I love my P13's...
On top is actually a video, you might need to buff it a bit. Didn't know those rubber straps all over his sneakers was because he had no money for new sneakers...
Unpublished Images from Boris Bidjan Saberi: 0-11
Now on view at the Museum of Contemporary Art and Design in Raleigh, North Carolina until May 7th, 2017.
Someone have more info about this "Afterlife"??

Hey Boris, if you see this post, you gonna read this.
All big retailers are dropping your orders now. If you still gonna match that BBSNY store's price. All those retailers who rely hugely on web-store will all drop you. Your SS18 was not attractive. I guarantee sales is not gonna be good SS18. A lot of copied stuff from previous seasons. And now, you even canceling orders from retailers? What the hell are you thinking. Too much money to spend. And want to play some m_moria shxt here? I ordered 3 pairs of 11 BBS sneakers from Vertice and they said your lovely team canceled all their All black sneakers and a lot of other stuff too. If that's true. I wish you good luck, you just lose a long time BBS buyer from 2009. Very disappointing with your management of orders. Guarantee not gonna get anything from SS18. Please hug your BBSNY store closely since its gonna kill your business for sure.

I am a long time buyer of Boris since their first season. Therefore I keep up with news of the designer and stores relationships. I am a non EU customer, therefore when i purchase item from an EU store. Rationally, VAT will be removed. But retailers told me since BBSNY depend hugely on their web-store which is in US, their price is significantly higher than all EU stores. And BBSNY thinks it is unfair to them. Somehow Boris think all the stores should follow BBSNY price if its non-EU. Therefore we non-EU customers can't enjoy the price without VAT. Retailers from EU and other countries who rely hugely on their web-store suffer from this. Non-EU customers stop buying because of the overpricing of BBS(even non-EU price). We just dont understand, not until I go to a store and ask. Big retailers drop them or reduce their order therefore.
I ordered 3 sneakers from Vertice not just for myself but also for my friends. They will be so disappointed . Thanks you BBS for making a mess.
Faust, why dont you put your feet in my shoes and think about it yourself. You paid the deposit 6 months ago and got nothing in return. Why dont I invest the money? That's complete bullshxt. It is like BBS borrows money without paying interest. paying you back in 6 months.
hey man,
I know youre triggered but just for reference sake, the store Im with at the current moment tripled their order for SS18 because the season was on fire with a bunch of new products. I do not know whats up with vertice but they sort of also failed me this season because they did not order my size for shoes so I kind of understand what you mean, but that is more of a vertice issue than a boris one if you ask me.

VANCOUVER – A&W Food Services of Canada Inc. is marking World Oceans Day by eliminating all plastic straws from all restaurants by the end of this year. It will be the first quick service restaurant chain in North America to make this commitment.
"Reducing waste from landfills is a top priority for A&W and this is one big way that we can make a difference," says Susan Senecal, A&W Canada's president and CEO.
"We are proud to make this change, which has been driven by the wishes of our guests, franchisees, and staff."
A&W will provide guests with the option of a paper straw. The paper straws are 100 percent biodegradable, compostable and are sustainably sourced. They last two to three hours in a drink without breaking down, but naturally biodegrade in three to six months in the environment. This switch to paper will keep 82 million plastic straws out of landfills every year.
"Introducing packaging innovations that reduce waste is key to A&W's environmental strategy," explains Tyler Pronyk, A&W Canada's director of distribution, equipment and packaging.
"By using compostable packaging, real mugs, plates and cutlery, we are diverting millions of single-use packaging from landfills every year."
"Eliminating plastic straws is another big step for us. As we learn more about new tools and sustainable practices, we look forward to more improvements ahead," he adds.

Indian citizens will soon be able to pay for goods and services using only their fingerprints.
Elaborating on a program initially announced earlier this month, the country's Minister of Information Technology (and Law and Justice), Ravi Shankar Prasad, has announced that the government is stepping up efforts to promote payments via Aadhaar, the country's national biometric ID program. At gas stations, stores, and elsewhere, the project will see merchants accept payment by performing fingerprint or iris scans, meaning even citizens without a smartphone can pay by Aadhaar.
The fingerprint scans can be conducted using cheap readers that can be attached to merchants' smartphones, with the government planning to launch a standardized payment app this week. The Indian government is also planning workshops across the country to train merchants on how to use the digital payment technology.
In announcing the program, Prasad asserted that about 400 million of the country's 1.1 billion banks accounts are already linked to Aadhaar, suggesting the new payments program could have a dramatic impact on economic life in the country.

How To Deal With The Five Causes Of Ingrown Pimple
Almost 90 percent of the chances of every person in his lifetime experiencing this skin problem. Especially when they are teenagers to 25 years. It is possible, those at the age of 25 years are also still experiencing ingrown pimple.
Pimple is still a major skin problem than others. Almost 90 percent of the chances of every person in his lifetime experiencing this skin problem. Especially when they are teenagers to 25 years. It is possible, those at the age of 25 years are also still experiencing pimple.
Pimple occurs because there is a blockage of oil glands. Oil is liquid and long-lasting will be hard and clogs so it becomes blackheads, like a channel that is blocked, but the current keeps running, still produced to make the blob. Usually, pimple occurs on the face, chest, back and arms.
The case comes from several things. There are pimple hormones that are affected, but some are encouraged by some activities that should be handled. Among them, like the following:
Make-up Options
Pimple on the face is usually more often caused by makeup or makeup. One should be able to see the type of makeup you want to use. To avoid pimple, of course, must use a makeup that does not cause blackheads and easy to clean.
If attending an event long enough, someone is encouraged to use makeup that is easy to clean and do as much as possible to make up again. This is to avoid the use of durable makeup without repetition which can clog pores.
Rarely wash your face
A person usually just wash his face in the shower. The bath schedule itself is only done twice a day.
Sometimes people are spotty usually because rarely wash your face, he just fits the bath only twice a day.
One must be diligent to wash his face. However, he advised, so that someone does not use soap that can make the face dry as withdrawn. Excessive oil content can make your skin moist.
Use of helmets
It is not impossible that someone often uses an online motorcycle taxi service. Although their goal is to shorten the time to avoid the jam, but the use of helmets can be ingrown pimple causes.
That does not mean someone should not use a helmet. Usually, someone uses a helmet that is also used by others. Although already wearing a mask, but the germs contained from the helmet that will stick to someone's face.
Helmets are usually used in tunnels, although say it was using a mask, but right if the helmet was stuck to the face (right cheek and left cheek), from their oil facial stick and can cause blackheads.
To avoid the pimple should someone want to wash your face after the use of helmets. That's so that oil that sticks to the face does not overlap.
Residual hair conditioner
Probably still many people judge pimple on the back due to prickly heat and the use of the wrong soap. So far there has been no study linking pimple with the use of soap.
Pimple on the back precisely occurs due to conditioner from falling hair and stick on the back. Slip conditioner material makes the pores on the back clogged. Usually, it happens because someone is lazy to rinse the whole body after using conditioner.
Food supply
Food intake is touted one of the factors of pimple. It is still a controversy to this day.
According to him, the foods to be reduced are foods that contain lots of sugar, dairy products and cheese.
