MAC make-up artist – and guest blogger for Grazia Daily during London Fashion Week – Neil Young is here with a look at what happens backstage at the shows...
After the buzz of last night's show, I had very little sleep but I had a long day ahead. My first stop of the day? Maria Grachvogel.
The fantastic Mel Arter created the 90's statuesque supermodel look in cold browns and taupes on the eyes (a taste of A/W collections from MAC) and an almost dirty grey plum on the lip using Stone lip pencil and a new plum lip colour from the fall collections.
The show was held at the Waldorf hotel. A small and intimate show and the clothes were stunning. For a London show, it was incredibly civilised! Usually it's chaos which makes a very nice change from the last minute dramas!
Straight after the show, I had just enough time to head to the Pro store in Soho, grab some product for a show on Sunday, eat a quick snack and then head to my makeup test for Clements Ribeiro. It's now 7pm and I'm hoping to be in bed for 12… I have a 4:30am start tomorrow! Well, you can but hope!

Preservation's Loss: The Statutory Construction of Forests in Cook County, IL
By Natalie Bump Vena
Why did the State of Illinois establish a Forest Preserve District in northeastern Illinois, where forests made up a small fraction of the landscape? And what were the ecological consequences of doing so? With jurisdiction in the county that encompasses Chicago, the Forest Preserve District of Cook County, IL today manages 69,000 acres of protected land, mostly located in the city's suburbs. At the turn of the twentieth century, civic and political leaders dreamed of establishing this system of open land as a natural retreat for Chicagoans who could not otherwise afford to leave the teeming metropolis. To begin realizing that vision, Chicago's City Council hired Architect Dwight Perkins to compile a report for an enlarged park system in 1903. Perkins in turn asked Landscape Architect Jens Jensen to recommend land to include in what they called an "outer belt park." They published the report in 1904. Continue reading

New bikes
21 January 2013 15:31
Spanish trials bike manufacturer OSSA have unveiled two new two-stroke models for 2013, the TR280 and TR125.
The TR125, which the Spanish manufacturer claims is an ideal beginner bike, is supposedly the lightest bike in the market. It comes with technology inherited from the TR280, including fuel injection and monoblock crankcase.
The TR280 is updated for the first time since its launch with knowledge garnered from OSSA's FIM World Trials team. Changes are aimed at reducing weight and increasing manoeuvrability, with the new bike weighing only 64kg dry.
OSSA, who were revived from closure in 2010 by a group of Spanish businessmen, have had a successful relaunch, and finished fifth in last year's World Trials Championship, beating both Honda and Yamaha.

22 January 2013 13:21
While Honda own Montesa, they still enter the trials world championship as two separate manufacturers. They exist as two separate manufacturers in the constructors championship.
Yamaha do make a trials bike, the TYS250, which is rode in the TWC by Japanese rider Nozaki Fumita.
In the 2012 championship, OSSA finished 5th, with Yamaha 6th and Honda 7th.

CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- The West Virginia-Citizen Action Group said Tuesday it will appeal a state Public Service Commission ruling that paved the way for FirstEnergy to transfer ownership of a Harrison County power plant to its West Virginia subsidiary, Monongahela Power.
Citing a strongly worded dissent by Public Service Commissioner Ryan Palmer, WV-CAG said it would try to convince the state Supreme Court that the PSC decision allows FirstEnergy to greatly overvalue the transaction and wrongly pass the increased costs on to West Virginia ratepayers.
"The only winner in this deal is FirstEnergy," said Gary Zuckett, executive director of WV-CAG, which broke from the Sierra Club and the PSC Consumer Advocate Division in opposing a settlement aimed at allowing the FirstEnergy transaction.
FirstEnergy spokesman Todd Meyers said the company is still reviewing the PSC ruling, a 2-1 decision in which Chairman Michael Albert and Commissioner Jon McKinney approved the $1.1 billion deal.
The case is one of two such proposals that have been under consideration by the PSC. In the other, American Electric Power wants to transfer its John Amos plant near St. Albans and its Mitchell facility near Moundsville to its Charleston-based Appalachian Power subsidiary. The PSC has not ruled in that case.
The power companies have argued their proposals will help them deal with upcoming deficits in electricity needed to serve Mon Power customers in northern West Virginia and Appalachian Power customers in the southern part of the state.
But critics argued that both proposals ignored the potential gains from better demand-side energy efficiency programs, and would lock the utilities into generation mixes that are too narrowly focused on coal.
"Moving forward with a portfolio of over 90 percent coal-dependent generation for the foreseeable future, despite the tangible risks, will leave the utility with no ability to shift generation between fuel sources in response to market signals, and is unreasonable," Palmer wrote in his 10-page dissent in the FirstEnergy case.
In Monday's 50-page decision, the PSC majority ruled to approve an August settlement proposal that FirstEnergy reached with the commission staff, the agency's consumer advocate, and the Sierra Club, all of which had originally proposed the Harrison plant deal.
The immediate result for Mon Power customers -- as the PSC highlighted in a press release -- is a $16 million rate reduction. But that savings comes from the company's plan to distribute to customers over a short, 19-month period the $25 million cost of Mon Power selling to a sister FirstEnergy company a small share of the Pleasants Power Plant near Willow Island.
And more broadly, the PSC approval would allow Mon Power to pass on to customers about $858 million of the $1.1 billion cost of the Harrison plant transaction.

Despite a 2-3 start, the Broncos find themselves in the thick of the AFC West title race.
Denver will travel to San Diego for a Monday night showdown this week that gives the Broncos a chance to tie the Chargers for the division lead. The team's place in the standings is helping it stay positive and focused after a 31-21 loss to the Patriots.
"That's the good news," tight end Jacob Tamme said. "We've got a chance to get right there at the top of the division lead again. Nobody's real happy around here right now, but no one's discouraged at the same time. It's time to get back to work and get ready for this week."
Each of the Broncos' first three losses of the season have come against quality competition in Atlanta and Houston, who are both 5-0, and the defending AFC Champion Patriots. Week 6 will be no different, as Denver takes on a 3-2 San Diego squad. Tamme said the team should expect to win week in and week out, regardless of the opposition.
"We feel like we should be able to go strap it up with anybody, and we've missed some opportunities to kind of prove that," Tamme said. "We've played good teams. Every team in this league is pretty good. At the end of the day, you've got to win. You've got to win against good teams. We'll go back to work and try to get a little better this week."
Though the Broncos know how important it is to get back to .500, Tamme said the team's record is not a source of added pressure.
"I haven't really heard '2-4' until you just said it," Tamme said. "The goal is to find a way to get to 3-3. We're playing a good team again, a division opponent who's at the top of the division right now, and we've got a chance to get back up there with them. We'll have to be ready for it."
One problem for the Broncos through the first five games of the season has been fumbles. Denver currently leads the NFL with seven, including three against the Patriots. Doing a better job holding onto the ball is important, but it's not something that can be perfected. It's simply a matter of squeezing the ball tight and hanging on, Tamme said.
"Sometimes you're going to get unlucky," Tamme said. "Guys make a great play and get a hand right there on it. We'll continue to put an emphasis on it. As an offense, it's something we work on hard, and we'll get a couple of those bounces too."
"Just try to protect it with everything you've got," Tamme continued. "That's about it."
One other area where the Broncos are looking to improve is in how they start games. Falling behind has been an issue in each of Denver's losses, but Tamme said better first quarters are not far from the team's grasp.
"I wish we had a little magic potion," Tamme said. "I don't know the exacts. I think just little things with ball security, with missing a block here and there, or being just a tad off in different parts. I think the slow start maybe is a little bit overrated at this point. We were pretty close to going up 7-0 there early (against New England), but at the same time, we didn't. It's a matter of just taking care of all those little things. We've all got to individually get better. I can play better. We can all do a little better."

What makes the 23mm Hed Ardennes SL Tubular Bicycle Wheelset better than the ubiquitous 19mm rim? Width. Picture a standard 23mm tire on the C2 rim. Tire and rim width are the same, the sidewalls are fairly straight, and the width of the rim spreads the tread contact patch out. With straighter sidewalls, and more rubber on the road, cornering is an entirely new experience. The sidewalls don't flop over in a hard corner, and more rubber on the road is, well... better. C2s should be run with lower pressure, since there is more air volume in the wider tire profile. The same tire on a 19mm rim looks more like the profile of a light bulb. The curved sidewalls flop over under hard cornering, there is less rubber on the road, and more air pressure is needed to prevent pinch flats. The Ardennes SL is Hed�s best selling wheel and for good reason. It is the original Ardennes and for 2012 is upgraded with a carbon front hub and a new rear wheel lacing pattern to enhance power transmission and lateral stiffness. The SL utilizes the same high performance scandium C2 rim as its big brother the Ardennes Flamme Rouge.

Four Elements to Bring Good Karma to Your Business
In business, there's great emphasis on forecasting the future and forward-thinking, especially in my field of Internet presence. That's not to say we can't also take it one day at a time, reminiscent of the teachings from Buddhist masters such as the Dalai Lama and Deepak Chopra. They focus on paying attention to the present and not taking it for granted; something I feel results in greater success in the workplace.
When you visit the Red Door Interactive website [2], you'll notice the two words--"Be Present"--in the top right-hand corner of the screen. Wherever you navigate on the site, the phrase never disappears. That's largely because we believe that accenting today will bring relevance and inspiration to the opportunities we face tomorrow and some peace of mind in a world of high stress and tight deadlines. It's working quite well for us, and I believe could be a big benefit to other companies. Here are a few tactics that can help executives live in the moment:
Be present…to preserve the past--In order to grow and create, we should thrive on embracing change and not dwell on the mistakes of long-ago. If you take creative and strategic risks, you have to be willing to evolve and start over if they don't work. Letting go of past failures and leaving them behind with integrity should help the present and future flourish.
Be present…for your audience--In all forms of communication, it helps to seed different types of messaging that really capitalizes on an opportunity in the life of the content's consumer. It's about researching what an audience wants, living in their moment, and then delivering something applicable and relevant to their lifestyle. Also, providing a platform for engagement on the Web that a consumer can access 24 hours a day. We demonstrate this in the form of guiding customers through online shopping experiences or targeting various demographics around holidays and sports seasons.
Be present…for your staff--There is nothing worse than meeting with someone who is clearly distracted, constantly looking at a watch or phone. It's important, especially as executives, to consistently be a model for "100 percent attention" to help build deep, meaningful relationships with those supporting you. That's the type of manager who gets the best from employees because they feel each encounter has value, meaning and purpose.
Be present…for the future--There is a difference between planning ahead and anxiety about what comes next. Constant worry might lead to a culture of fear and fear mongering around the workplace. Those who waste negative energy on the future might not be as strong to face the challenges that exist every day. Focusing solely on the task at hand will help you complete it better, faster and with less stress. That efficiency today makes way for a successful tomorrow.
You don't have to be Buddhist or a yogi to practice these philosophies. They translate well from the meditation garden to the board room. Being present-minded can help us all stay focused in a high-paced business world with a lot of distractions. It's good karma--NOW.

Information About Great Green Gobs
This song is the most requested song at Bussongs! You have written in with hundreds of versions.
Almost all begin with "Great green gobs of greasy grimey gopher guts,' (although one person wrote in that it was "18 pounds").
From there the variations on ingredients are endless: It could have "little bloody birdies feet" or "chopped up parakeet" or "tiny pickeled piggy's feet".
It may have eyeballs "simmered in a pot of blood" or "floating in all-purpose porpoise puss" or "dipped in kerosene".
Or there may be no eyeballs at all - instead everything gets wrapped up in aligator guts!
And our favorite variation for the end is: "And that's what they served for lunch - without a spoon!".
The song is frequently sang whilst kids are camping, or at a Scouting event.
"Great Green Globs" is an anonymous folk song popular with school children. The tune of "The Old Gray Mare" is usually used to accompany the words. There are many regional and local versions but a large number of them utilize the phrase "greasy, grimy gopher guts" in the opening line.
The fun part of the song for children is the description of disgusting foodstuffs that are not usually for consumption. Mae Whitman (Maggie Taylor) and George Clooney (Jack Taylor) sing this song in their 1996 movie One Fine Day.
"Great Green Globs" appears in The Smithsonian Folkways collection A Fish That's a Song together with a number of traditional children's songs from the United States. However, the production credits no author nor copyright for the song.
For any further information about the song "Great Green Gobs" you may find Wikipedia helpful.

Alternative Lyrics & Related Songs
Slightly different lyrics in this version but still gross
Gross green gobs of greasy grimy gopher guts
Mutilated monkey meat
Little birdies bloody feet
French friend eyeballs rolling down the street
Oops, I forgot my utensils.
Another disgusting version!
Big fat gobs
of greasy grimy gopher guts
mutilated monkey meat
evaporated turkey feet
one full quart of all purpose puss
floating in pink lemonade and me without a spoon.
A horrid ending in this version!
Mutilated monkey meat,
Camel snot and stinky feet.
So they gave me a scab sandwich
with puss on top.
Great green gobs of greasy, grimy gopher guts.
Mutilated monkey meat.
Chopped up baby parakeet.
French-fried eyeballs rolling down a muddy street.
That's what we eat at school.
Disgusting lyrics sung to one of our users by their Dad!
Great big globs of greasy grimy gopher guts
mutilated monkey meat
dirty little birdies' feet
great big eyeballs rolling down the muddy street
and I forgot my spoon.
But I had my straw, so I ate it all!
One more!
Great big gobs or greasy grimy gopher guts
mutilated monkey meat
hairy little piggy's feet
all served up with vegetated vulture's vomit
and eaten without a spoon.
Another One You Might Enjoy
Great big globs of greasy, grimy, gopher guts
Mutilated, monkey's meat
Little birdies, turdy, feet
All washed up in alligators purple pee.
You forgot your spoon!
Snails sandwiches, pus on top
Elephant vomit, monkey snot
Cows eyeballs dipped in glue.
Eat it (insert name), it's good for you!
One verse to sing to
Boys are made of greasy, grimy, gopher guts,
Marinated monkey meat,
French fried parakeet,
All that gooey stuff walking down the
Country street wish I had a spoon.
We have more of them
Great big gobs of greasy, grimy gopher guts
Little dirty birdy feet
Marinated monkey meat
One quart jar of all-purpose porpoise pus
And I forgot my spooo --oo--on.
This works as a recipe
Great green gobs of greasy grimy gopher guts,
Contaminated monkey meat,
Roasted toasted parakeet,
All mixed up with really dirty birdies feet,
Buy it at your favorite store.
Yet another version:
Great green gobs of greasy grimy gopher guts,
Mutilated monkey meat,
Constipating birdie's feet
One whole pint of all purpous porpoise pus
And I forgot my spoon
But I got my straw
My wife heard the verse as
French fried eye balls swimmin in a bowl of blood
And I forgot my spoon
But I got my straw
I'm from Philly she from Ohio.
Drinkable version:
Greasy grimy gopher guts
mutilated munkey meat,
dirty little birdy feet,
all laying out in the
middle of a busy street
And I forgot my spoon
but I've got my straw.
As learned in Iowa:
Great green globs of greasy grimy gopher meat,
Dirty little birdies feet,
French fried eyeballs dipped in kerosine,
That's what I had for lunch!
Similar to the one above:
Great green gobs of greasy grimy gopher meat
constipated monkey brains
helped make the ancient rains
That's what we ate in school.

I can't believe I found this! In my early days, it was "Sixteen tons of greasy grimy gopher guts, mayonnaise in monkey meat, thirty dirty birdy feet. Sixteen tons of greasy grimy gopher guts and I forgot my spoon - I want my straw!". I would never have imagined that there were so many versions of this or that it was such a popular kids song. It certainly brought a big smile to my face when I saw all of them.

Great big gobs of greasy grimy gopher guts, mutilated monkey meat, chopped up baby parakeet. Pale pink pile of petrified pelican puke, all in a pool of blood.

Iranian dissidents protest in D.C.
If the goal was to get the president's attention, a group of mostly Iranian-Americans who put on a performance outside the White House must have at least raised eyebrows.
Hundreds protested the closure of Camp Ashraf in Iraq, where thousands of Iranian dissidents are living. If the camp is closed, the refugees will be unprotected or forced to go back to Iran.
On Monday, Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki met with President Obama at the White House and with U.S. troops leaving Iraq at the end of the month.
With a clock ticking quickly, protesters got a unique show of support from some lofty allies. Among them, a former Homeland Security secretary, FBI director and governor.
"I've been privileged to work in government in many different capacities, from a soldier in Vietnam to cabinet secretary," says Tom Ridge, former Homeland Security Secretary. "I never thought, as a private citizen, I'd be rallying with my friends to implore my president to do the right thing."

What kids can gain: Balance. Foot dexterity is a must to juggle the ball while finding teammates to pass to or a goal to shoot at. And the constant running is a big boon to their endurance levels and cardiovascular health.
What kids risk: Routine hazards include shin splints (pain in the front of and inside the lower legs), ankle twists, and the like. The bigger issue stems from heading the ball, which has been linked to concussions and possible brain injury. And it can happen whether the move is done correctly or not.
How to keep them safe: The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) now recommends no purposeful heading of the ball before age 10, says Teri McCambridge, M.D., chair of the AAP Council on Sports Medicine and Fitness. And some coaches encourage players to hold off until 13, says Karl Dewazien, coaching director for the California Youth Soccer Association North. Younger kids' brains are just more susceptible to injury. You also need to protect your child by limiting games. "We're in a time where coaches are bragging about playing their kids in 120 to 140 games a year," Dewazien says. "The pros don't even do that. You need 48 to 72 hours to rest between games, not 40 minutes."

I was really kind of hesitant when i first tried out these sticks because the taper and the fulcrum of the stick were WAY different from anything on the Vic Firth line. The stick is actually designed to have the fulcrum further up on the stick to where you truly get control of the stick without the added weight because the fulcrum is further back. The taper was a little shorter than the Ralph Hardimon so you can control it very well. Truly the stick for the... rebellious

The VIX has been in a downtrend since last November, which would point to declining volatility. The S&P 500 (SPY) is above 200-day moving averages, which is widely regarded as bullish. The TED spread, a difference between the interest rates on interbank loans and on T-bills, is decreasing, which indicates improving of credit in the general economy.
More and more investors have gone overseas to diversify their portfolios and boost their performance. With single-country ETFs dedicated to many developed and emerging markets, accessing different country markets around the globe has become much easier.
Country ETFs with High Yields
Followings are 18 country ETFs from iShares with the highest dividend yields:
Fund Name (Ticker) | Yield | P/E |
iShares MSCI Spain (EWP) | 9.7% | 12 |
iShares MSCI New Zealand (ENZL) | 6.5% | 20 |
iShares MSCI Poland (EPOL) | 5.7% | 11 |
iShares MSCI Belgium (EWK) | 5.3% | 21 |
iShares MSCI Australia (EWA) | 5.1% | 14 |
iShares MSCI Italy (EWI) | 4.6% | 13 |
iShares MSCI Malaysia (EWM) | 4.4% | 19 |
iShares MSCI Singapore (EWS) | 4.3% | 12 |
iShares MSCI Austria (EWO) | 4.2% | 17 |
iShares MSCI Sweden (EWD) | 4.1% | 14 |
iShares MSCI Taiwan (EWT) | 4.0% | 15 |
iShares MSCI Germany (EWG) | 3.5% | 15 |
iShares MSCI Israel (EIS) | 3.5% | 15 |
iShares MSCI France (EWQ) | 3.4% | 13 |
iShares MSCI United Kingdom (EWU) | 3.3% | 13 |
iShares MSCI Netherlands (EWN) | 3.2% | 13 |
iShares MSCI South Africa (EZA) | 3.1% | 17 |
iShares MSCI Turkey (TUR) | 2.8% | 13 |
Many of these ETFs have the biggest allocations in financials, energy and materials sectors. MSCI Taiwan has about half of its holdings in tech stocks. Most of these high-yield country ETFs are from European countries. With high-dividend yields and low P/Es, MSCI Singapore and MSCI Australia are two non-European ETFs that appear attractive.
MSCI Singapore
Singapore's economy depends heavily on exports. The graph below from TradingEconomics.com shows that Singapore's GDP growth was very volatile: from 2007 until 2011, Singapore's average quarterly GDP Growth was 6%, reaching a historical high of 39.9% in March of 2010, and a record low of -16.7% in September of 2010.
(Click chart to expand)
The Government Debt in Singapore is 97% of the country´s GDP. A report released on December 8, 2011, by Monetary Authority of Singapore, projects that Singapore's economic growth in the 2012 will be between 1% to 3%, and inflation between 2.5% to 3.5%.
MSCI Australia
Australia has abundance of agricultural and mineral resources. According to TradingEconomics.com, from 1959 until 2011 Australia's average quarterly GDP Growth was 0.89%, reaching a historical high of 4.6% in March of 1976, and a record low of -2.7% in June of 1974 . The Government Debt in Australia is 22% of GDP. From 1989 until 2010, Australia's average Government Debt to GDP was 20%.
One of the arguments made at the time for investing in the Internet bubble was that traditional valuations such as P/E and price-to-sales ratios no longer matter. In the case of the coming boom, when you start hearing financial commentators and pundits creating new valuation metrics to support current share prices across gold, oil, agriculture and the market as a whole, that will be a signal that the boom is coming to an end, according to Robert Haber, author of "Go Canada."
Many natural wealth country ETFs such as MSCI Australia offer steady high dividends. In this low-interest environment. They could be great alternatives for income investors searching for yields.

An Excerpt from I Am Rosa Parks
When Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat on a bus to a white man on December 1, 1955, she made history. Her brave act sparked the Montgomery, Alabama bus boycott and brought the civil rights movement to national attention. In simple, lively language, Rosa Parks describes her life from childhood to the present and recounts the events that shook the nation. Her story is powerful, inspiring and unforgettable.
