International Environmental Policy Certificate Program
International Environmental Policy (IEP) is a dynamic and complex field stretching across many disciplines, scales, organizations, and issues. Yet it is defined by attention beyond domestic borders (International), concern with the health of the natural world (Environmental), and recognition that human decisions are key (Policy). It is a field that demands a broad range of knowledge and skills from its practitioners, no matter what the focus of their work.
The certificate program integrates international environmental law, politics, economics, and science. Beyond these foundation topics, students learn specifically useful skills such as data analysis, policy memo writing, or program evaluation. Previous background in environmental studies (science or policy), international relations, and/or economics is helpful, in combination with some international experience.
Students wishing to deepen their specialization in the field of International Environmental Policy may want to pursue the Master of Arts in International Environmental Policy (MAIEP). This degree builds on a sound specialization in the field - and adds additional requirements.
Non-Degree Option
Individuals who wish to complete a course of study to receive the Certificate in International Environmental Policy may do so within a period of two semesters. These students are considered non-degree, as they are not enrolled in a master's degree program, and will have a different set of admissions requirements. Working professionals, recent undergraduate students, and individuals who already hold an advanced degree can be considered. Please contact the Admissions Office for more details.
To complete the certificate in International Environmental Policy, students must successfully complete 20 credits of core courses and 12 credits of electives for a total of 32 credits.
Certificate Core Courses (20 credits)
- IEPG 8503 Research Strategies for Environmental Policy (2 credits)
- IEPG 8506 Public Policy and the Environment (2 credits)
- IEPG 8507 Governing the Global Commons (formerly International Environmental Law & Politics) (4 credits)
- IEPG 8511 Environmental Science & Risk Management (formerly IEPG 8512 Quantitative Methods for Environmental Science & Policy) (4 credits)
- IEPG 8542 Environmental & Natural Resource Economics (4 credits)
- IEPG 8591 Applied Conservation Science (formerly Natural Science Foundations for Environmental Policy) (4 credits)
The student may choose which courses to take to fulfill the remaining 12 credits, including language courses, subject to the approval of an Academic Advisor and the Assistant Dean of GSIPM. Students must obtain an average grade of B or higher for all courses completed in furtherance of the certificate.
The requirements listed above are effective as of June 1, 2011.

COLUMBIA, SC (WIS) - A woman is recovering in an area hospital after the vehicle she was driving crashed through a brick wall coming to rest on its side Tuesday morning near downtown Columbia.
The incident happened in front of 2231 Main Street.
Witnesses say the woman's 2004 Ford Escape was traveling south on Main Street when it crossed over into the northbound lanes and ran off the side of the road.
Police said the driver likely experienced a medical emergency just before losing control of the SUV. The unidentified driver was trapped inside the vehicle for a short time until firefighters could free her.
Nobody else was injured.
No charges have been filed.

It hasn't been a great season for Nick Swisher or Cleveland Indians fans. The former is having his worst season in five in his first year after signing a four-year, $56 million contract in the offseason. The latter have produced some of the worst attendance figures in baseball despite a team that remains in Wild Card contention.
But Swisher, baseball's foremost bro, must have picked up a thing or two about dibromacy in his time at Brohio State. So he's extending the most awesome possible olive branch to Tribe fans.

A Mt. Juliet police officer was involved in a shooting in the Stonegate Mobile Home Community early Saturday morning.
The suspect, a 56-year-old male, was shot by the officer and transported to Vanderbilt University Medical Center. The officer involved was not injured.
Shortly after officers arrived on the scene at the 700 block of Stonegate Drive, the man exited his home carrying a handgun.
According to a press release issued by the police department, the man raised his weapon and pointed it in the direction of the officers and a bystander. One of the officers on the scene immediately ordered the man to lower his weapon. When the man did not oblige, the officer shot him.
There were two adult female family members and one male child in the home. Police said they were not aware of the incident until notified by police officers.
"This is certainly a traumatic event for the injured subject, his family, and the officers involved. Our thoughts and prayers are extended for a quick recovery," Mt. Juliet Police Chief James Hambrick said in the release. "Police officers can go through their entire career and never be involved in this type of incident. This is one of the most difficult things an officer has to do."
The shooting is being investigated by the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation.
The officer involved is on leave while the investigation is ongoing.

BLOOMINGTON,Ill. -- President Obama has proposed legislation that cracks down on the use of assault weapons and it has drawn fire from several local law enforcement officials.
The Illinois Sheriff's Association said the focus should be on helping the mentally ill. McLean County Sheriff Mike Emery said a jail capacity of 240 does not leave much space to house a growing population of inmates needing mental health treatment.
Right now they are using a portion of the booking area to house those inmates in isolation. Emery said, with the proper treatment, some may not have committed crimes.
"We need to do a better job in helping these individuals get them back into competency, restore them to competency, make them mentally healthy, maybe we won't have these mass shootings, killings," said Emery.
Emery and members of the Illinois Sheriff's Association said mass shootings, like the one in Newtown, Connecticut and Aurora, Colorado, may have been prevented. Instead of a crackdown on the use of assault weapons, they would like to see more services to help the mentally ill.
Tazewell County Sheriff Bob Huston said staffing and housing mental health inmates poses a real challenge for the jail and staff adding state budget cuts worsen the problem.
"In Illinois for example we've just closed two prisons, we've abolished the death penalty, they looking at an early release program. We haven't been able to get people in a mental health facility for years in a timely basis," Huston said.
Sheriff Emery said with very little room in the jail and limited outside treatment facilities, there are not many options for mental health inmates.
The sheriffs both said county jails continue to hold inmates who have been remanded to the state mental health facility for treatment, with some waiting several months at a time.

Alex Gibney details the creation of Julian Assange's controversial website in his latest documentary
We Steal Secrets: The Story of WikiLeaksAngelika Film Center (18 West Houston Street, New York, NY 10012) Map it $13
Filmed with the startling immediacy of unfolding history, Oscar winning documentary filmmaker Alex Gibney's WE STEAL SECRETS: THE STORY OF WIKILEAKS details the creation of Julian Assange's controversial website, which facilitated the largest security breach in U.S. history. Hailed by some as a free-speech hero and by others as a traitor and terrorist, the enigmatic Assange's rise and fall are paralleled with that of Pfc. Bradley Manning, the soldier who revealed the inner workings of the government's international diplomacy and military strategy. WE STEAL SECRETS is a riveting, multi-layered tale about transparency in the information age and our elusive search for the truth.

The recent death of my Monter in Law, combined wth the deaths a few years ago of my Father in Law and Father has gotten me started thinking (scary ain't it) about different phrases used to describe people.
In my part of the Mo. hills the phrase "they're good people", is used to describe someone you know quite well, usually a husband and wife or small family, that can be depended on to do what is right, or help you if you need it, even if it creates a hardship for htem. Another phrase used is"they're all good people". which is used to describe a group of people you know, that you don't know anything bad about. It implies trust, but not as complete a trust as the first phrase does.
Just curious about similiar phrases used in other areas.

Tim Brown
After taking another from the A's, Angels looking like a team to beatTim Brown at Yahoo Sports4 days ago
ANAHEIM, Calif. – They'll play the AL West into the final month, maybe the final days of the final month, and whatever comes of it will be the Los Angeles Angels' to bear.
They might not be the better team, might not be better situated in their starting rotation, and have yet to accomplish anything as a group. (The last time they were in the playoffs Chone Figgins was their best player, according to WAR, which we hadn't heard of yet.) And, really, this has little to do with the Oakland A's, who have become quite adept at this regular-season thing, and even pretty good at this first-four-games-of-the-division-series thing. They're better than the Angels 'til the Angels prove otherwise.
It's just that the Angels have had five years to prepare for this very September, what with Mike Trout all grown up, Albert Pujols and Josh Hamilton (mostly) in their primes, and Jerry Dipoto having now had ample time to construct a bullpen. They've spent the time, spent the money, stuck with Mike Scioscia in the lean years (and he with them, by the way), and now a single month of decent baseball stands between them and who they used to be.
MLB Power Rankings: Nats are lurkingTim Brown at Yahoo Sports5 days ago
On what it takes to be like the A's, Cano's dizzy spell and Mr. Met's vulnerabilities:
The rankings (records through Wednesday):
1. Oakland Athletics (78-54; Previous: 1) – A's tighten up for stretch, focus on tighter defense, more aggressive baserunning and fewer careless whispers.
2. Los Angeles Angels (79-53; Previous: 2) – Hoping to be more like A's, Angels flood parts of their stadium.
3. Washington Nationals (75-57; Previous: 5) – Williams promises Babe Ruth impersonation with 10-game winning streak; Hal McRae impersonation with 10-game losing streak.
4. Baltimore Orioles (75-56; Previous: 3) – Bright side, Machado appears to be running out of knees to repair.
5. Los Angeles Dodgers (76-58; Previous: 4) – It only seems sometimes Puig is love child of Teen Wolf and Forrest Gump. Not actually true. Probably.
6. Kansas City Royals (74-58; Previous: 6) – Royals now sorta can't believe they didn't bury Tigers earlier.
7. Seattle Mariners (72-60; Previous: 8) – Cano leaves game with dizziness, blames new money smell.
8. Milwaukee Brewers (73-60; Previous: 7) – Carlos Gomez is so cool the ice bucket declined, donated a hundred bucks.
Marlins' playoff push not enough for Giancarlo Stanton to commit to future in MiamiTim Brown at Yahoo Sports8 days ago
ANAHEIM, Calif. – The Miami Marlins are somewhat relevant, and not in that empty "spoiler" way, code for "Who cares, we're done." Few believed the Marlins would be so, and probably more than a few rooted against it, given the way the owner conducts his business.
But, well, here they are, at .500 in late August, an intriguing three games back in the wild card, 11 months after they lost 100 games and nearly four since Jose Fernandez threw his last pitch. They're one imprecise or unlucky week from irrelevance, a couple bad weeks from their fifth consecutive losing season, and yet they've nearly reached September and the games still feel important.
They're here for three and then they'll play the Atlanta Braves six times in 10 games, at the end of which we should know better if the Marlins will carry some life into the final few weeks, whether owner Jeffrey Loria deserves such gentle fortune or not.Wed, Sep 34:10 PM PDTNY Mets at MiamiPreview Game
Sources: Manny Machado to have knee surgery, likely lost for the seasonTim Brown at Yahoo Sports11 days ago
Baltimore Orioles third baseman Manny Machado is expected to undergo surgery on his injured right knee in the coming week, sources said Friday afternoon, likely ending Machado's season and damaging the AL East-leading Orioles' championship hopes.
Machado, whose 2013 season ended prematurely because of a torn ligament in his left – opposite – knee, fell awkwardly on his right knee while batting 10 days ago. He has been on the disabled list since.
Dr. Neal ElAttrache, orthopedic surgeon for the Los Angeles Dodgers, repaired Machado's left knee last fall and is expected to perform the surgery on Machado's right knee in the coming days.
According to the sources, ElAttrache discovered a small abnormality in the knee during the previous surgery that could have contributed to last year's injury. The right knee has the same abnormality and that, too, is expected to be repaired, sources said. Future knee issues for Machado, 22, could be avoided because of this discovery and repair, and those close to him believe the surgery is best for Machado's long-term health and success.
With 7 games in 10 days, Angels-A's series getting kicked up a notchTim Brown at Yahoo Sports11 days ago
They didn't have a good enough bullpen, and won a lot of those games. And so they rebuilt their bullpen.
They didn't have a high-end rotation, and won a lot of those games, too. And then they carried their best pitcher from a ballpark in Boston, gone until spring. They won that game and then the next.
Their biggest investments didn't exactly produce the way they'd hoped, and they won a lot anyway, more than anyone else. More to the point, they won more than the Oakland A's.
The Los Angeles Angels boarded their flight out of Boston as Thursday night turned to Friday morning. They headed to Oakland to see the A's, the best team in the AL West, maybe the best team in the game, the team they lead in the standings by two games.
There hasn't been much in the way of order to the Angels' summer, beyond the fact Mike Trout is again running with the league MVP favorites and most nights end with them winning. The A's would understand. They are, after all, the ones chasing a third consecutive AL West title, the ones who have replaced the Angels (and the Texas Rangers) as the beasts of the division. They are the ones with a roster that leads not with who they are but how they play.
Garrett Richards collapses, Zack Greinke needs more rest; Angels and Dodgers hold their breathTim Brown at Yahoo Sports13 days ago
LOS ANGELES – As Clayton Kershaw prepares here to make a start a day earlier than expected, as Garrett Richards lay in the Fenway Park dirt with his head propped on his own red glove, as Zack Greinke explains what may or may not be wrong with his elbow, as a bullpen gathers itself for a long night in Boston and a team braces for what now could be a long September …
It's Wednesday afternoon here. Kershaw is running through his routine, the one he uses the day before a start. Except he's not scheduled to pitch until Friday.
"No comment," he says with a grin.
It's Wednesday evening in Boston. Richards runs from the pitcher's mound to cover first base, stumbles and collapses, screaming as he grips his left knee.
At about the same time, Greinke shrugs and says, "I can't predict how I'll feel when I do pitch. I feel good enough to pitch, that's for sure."
Twelve storylines for MLB's stretch runTim Brown at Yahoo Sports15 days ago
There's stuff we need to know. We have six weeks to know them.
With just that much remaining in the regular season, 11 teams are done. Of 30. Eighteen have a less than 50 percent chance of October.
That leaves plenty. By now, three-quarters of the way through a baseball season, a ballclub generally has found its authentic self, as has its players. Sometimes the mirror is not very kind. It is, however, accurate. Sometimes, Hey gorgeous…
So, we made a list of what might shape the races, what might draw our attention, what might inspire us to tear the mirror from the wall and slam it repeatedly against our foreheads.
Are the Los Angeles Dodgers really that interested in winning this thing?
So, apparently, somebody told the most expensive team in history it could take weekends off. Their record over the last three – Fridays through Sundays – is 2-7. Kevin Correia, Roberto Hernandez and Dan Haren are rotation mainstays for the foreseeable future. The road from them to Kenley Jansen is long and winding. The left side of the infield is on the disabled list. On the bright side, the Dodgers have three series remaining against winning teams, two of those against the San Francisco Giants.
How the Brewers' Wily Peralta went from lofting lemons to firing fastballsTim Brown at Yahoo Sports17 days ago
LOS ANGELES – The drive from Samana, a town on the northeastern shore of the Dominican Republic, across the island to Santo Domingo was maybe five hours, much of it slow, some of it treacherous.
This was before the new highway went in a few years back, before there were four lanes of fresh pavement, tollbooths and guardrails.
Wily Peralta had taken the old route, the one that would seemingly go to nowhere until it emptied into somewhere. He was 11, and he was going to play baseball, the kind with real baseballs and real baseball gloves.
"Mom, I want to play baseball," he'd told his mother.
"I want you to go to school," she'd said.
"I want to go to school, too," he'd said. "But I believe I can do it; I can play baseball."
In Samana, Peralta had plucked his baseballs from the lemon tree in his backyard. Sometimes the neighborhood boys would wait months for the lemons to reach the size of a baseball. They'd play catch using squares of cardboard as gloves, and before long their ball was a soft, pulpy mess, sending them back to the tree to pick out a new yellowy pearl.
MLB executive Rob Manfred becomes the game's next commissionerTim Brown at Yahoo Sports19 days ago
Major League Baseball owners on Thursday selected Rob Manfred, MLB's chief operating officer and longtime right-hand man to outgoing commissioner Bud Selig, as the game's next commissioner.
Despite opposition from a handful of owners, most notably Jerry Reinsdorf of the Chicago White Sox, Manfred received at least the required 23 votes to become baseball's 10th commissioner. Boston Red Sox chairman Tom Werner and MLB executive vice president of business Tim Brosnan also were candidates, all three identified as such by a Selig-appointed search committee. Brosnan withdrew his name before owners cast their votes, so the final decision was between Manfred and Werner.
The owners met into the early evening in Baltimore after the first returns had Manfred within a vote or two of approval. At about 6 p.m. ET, and after many meetings of the full membership and breakoff groups, enough owners had flipped their votes from Werner to Manfred. At that point, the owners agreed to make the vote unanimous, and announced it as 30-0 for Manfred.
MLB Power Rankings: Royals are risingTim Brown at Yahoo Sports19 days ago
On what old Orioles really need, the Tigers as bad dogs, and what the Cardinals can expect out of Lackey for half-a-mil:
The rankings (records through Wednesday):
1. Oakland Athletics (73-47; Previous: 1) – A's so committed to 2014, front office refuses to pre-order 2015 calendars.
2. Los Angeles Angels (70-49; Previous: 2) – Angels spend entire Freeway Series explaining they wouldn't want to live in Los Angeles, but don't mind visiting.
3. Baltimore Orioles (69-50; Previous: 5) – O's hold on-field ceremony to honor 60 years of baseball. Either that or they were giving away support hosiery.
4. Los Angeles Dodgers (69-53; Previous: 3) – Rotation kind of like a mullet: business in the front, bullpen party in the back.
5. Washington Nationals (65-53; Previous: 6) – When they need an extra outfielder, Nats pick up the Souza phone.
6. Kansas City Royals (65-54; Previous: 17) – Former Missouri Tiger Aaron Crow gets save on ballpark's "Missouri Night," former Nebraska Cornhusker Alex Gordon hits homer on "Nebraska Night," beat writer expecting Pulitzer consideration on upcoming "GED Night."
7. Milwaukee Brewers (66-55; Previous: 8) – Wily Peralta among league leaders in W's, still short one L.

Recycled glass will soon be used to keep homes warm in the Cedar Valley thanks to Linn County.
The Linn County Solid Waste Agency will donate nearly 6,000 square feet of insulation to Cedar Valley Habitat for Humanity. The insulation is made from recycled bottles and jars.
In 2012, the Solid Waste Agency began a partnership with Ripple Glass. When glass is collected curbside in Cedar Rapids or at the county's Solid Waste Agency locations, it's taken to a glass processing plant in Kansas City.
Some glass is turned into bottles. The rest is used to make fiberglass insulation.
Linn County residents recycle 45-50 tons of glass each month.
Since the Solid Waste Agency began its partnership with Ripple Glass, more than 620 tons of glass have been collected.
The Solid Waste Agency will donate the insulation to Habitat for Humanity on Monday, July 1 at 10 a.m. at the Solid Waste Agency, located at 2250 A Street SW, Cedar Rapids.

MedStar rescue crash
FORT WORTH - Two MedStar crew members will receive honors for the rescue of a woman from a burning vehicle early Thursday morning.
At 12:49 a.m., 911 calls were received about a crash on West Freeway at Chapel Creek Boulevard.
Robert Long and Kayden Bathory are a paramedic and EMT team at MedStar in Fort Worth. They say there were just coming back from a hospital when they heard the call about a truck that had flipped on I-30.
"We got there pretty quick," Bathory said. "We were at the right spot at the right time."
They say there's no such thing as a typical day for a first responder. When they arrived on scene, they noticed the truck was upright, sitting near the median near the guardrails. They say it was fully engulfed in flames and noticed the driver was pinned inside.
The flames hindered the MedStar employees from being able to get to the victim. They used fire extinguishers from their truck to subdue the fire, Zavadsky said.
"The fire extinguisher ended up running out, and we just kinda looked at each other and we both went in," said paramedic Robert Long.
The fire was so hot, they took turns getting the woman out.
"The last time, we pulled her away... A couple seconds later, it exploded," Bathory said.
Bathory said they were knocked off their feet from that explosion.
"It's our job -- that's why we do this," Long said. "We don't do it for the money, that's for sure."
"I would do it again in a heartbeat, without even looking back," Bathory added.
The woman was transferred by CareFlite to Parkland Hospital, Zavadsky said. She was listed in critical condition while in flight, but her current condition is not known.
The Fort Worth Fire Department and Fort Worth Police Department also responded around 1:05 a.m. to the scene and were able to put out the truck fire.
"This is a once-in-a-career event," Zavadsky said.
Long and Bathory admit they're not used to all this attention, but understand why it's important. The pair will receive some form of commendation from the department for their efforts Thursday morning.

"Northern European Nations Show Best Results In Study Of Global Corruption" Article Response
A nonprofit organization called the World Justice Project created a report, raking countries in terms of "absence of corruption". Apparently, the higher the country is in rankings, the less corrupted it is. There are many categories which defines a countries overall ranking, and because the topic at hand is rather broad, I find the statistics to be questionably unreliable. However the quality, I find the concept behind it to be potentially beneficial. Rather than bringing the attention of other countries to those that are apparently more corrupted, the final rankings of a country should bring one's attention to itself. In other words, if a country has scored low in the rankings, and has happened to recognize it, perhaps it could be enough to motivate that country towards self-improvement. The United States scored relatively well, ranking in 18th out of 97 countries. With America's "best country in the world" attitude, maybe these rankings will convince our country that there is always room for improvement.

Updated Dec 13, 2012 - 11:57 am
Two Sun Devils named SI All-Americans
Junior defensive tackle Will Sutton was named to the first team, while senior punter Josh Hubner received honorable mention recognition.
This honor only adds to the already impressive list of accolades for Sutton, who has already won 14 national awards.
Aside from the 2012 Pac-12 Defensive Player of the Year, Sutton has been named to nine All-American teams and was awarded both the Morris Trophy and first team All-Pac-12 honors.
Sutton ended the 2012 season with 58 total tackles, 20 of which were for a loss, and 10.5 sacks. His 1.82 tackles for loss per game were good for first in the Pac-12 and fifth in the nation.
Hubner finished his the season with a conference-leading 47.1 yards per punt, which was good for third in the nation. His 73 yard punt against UCLA was a career best and was tied for the ninth longest punt of the 2012 season.
While not as widely recognized as Sutton, Hubner had been named to Lindy's All-American team earlier this week.
The Sun Devils are scheduled to face the United States Naval Academy in the Kraft Fight Hunger Bowl December 29 at AT&T Park in San Francisco.

Gluecon 2012
Glue Conference, aka Gluecon, is such a refreshing event – filled with API and application developers, not a single suit in sight, demo pods, hackathons, spheros etc.
APIs are popping up everywhere and creating amazing integration possibilities. One of the coolest demos I saw at Gluecon was Ducksboard's dashboard service, which lets you create your own monitoring dashboard using a library of widgets for existing social and Cloud providers. You can even create your own widget and have your own data pushed to it via an API endpoint created just for you, on the fly – so sexy!
Thanks to everybody who came to my presentation Making Sense of API Access Control. I hope this shed some light on how to leverage OAuth for controlling access to REST-based APIs. A lot of the new APIs I discovered this week could certainly use some help in that regard. API key authentication in HTTP basic without password has its limitations. The slides from Making Sense of API Access Control are embedded below.

Another cool day started the week. Tuesday, will be the same, but wetter.
A front is hanging out offshore. There is a storm forming along it off the Carolinas that will be here Tuesday. It looks like it will stay mostly offshore, but part of southern New England will get quite wet. I expect showers to work their way northward through the morning.
The day will be mostly cloudy and the east to northeast winds will keep cool, damp air flowing in. This will likely mean some drizzle for the area. The part of New England closest to the storm, southeastern Massachusetts, will be the wettest. Heavy rains will likely fall on Cape Cod and the islands Tuesday night. That storm will move past us by Wednesday morning.
Wednesday will feature some sunshine and mild temperatures. The next front will arrive Wednesday night with a few showers. It will bring cooler air behind it. I expect the balance of the week to be pretty nice.

Let's Create your Company's Growth Strategy Together!
We develop personal strategy for your business growing
GET 8(a) OR SDB CERTIFIED IN RECORD TIME I'm sure that you've heard that getting 8(a) or SDB certified can take up to a year or more. You may have even heard that 70% of all applications are rejected, and almost every application is challenged, at least once in the process.
Why does it take so long, and why are so few applications accepted? The answer is multifold:
First, the SBA is severely understaffed and overworked, and the backlog of applications has grown significantly, with the closure of one of the three regional application evaluation centers.
Second, the guidance provided by the SBA is incomplete and flawed. By this, we mean that if you follow the instructions "to the letter", you shall certainly have your application challenged, or they will ask you for additional information, not previously disclosed to you as necessary, or you will be rejected.
Third, unlike Federal government RFP's, which demand a standard structure for organizing a proposal, the SBA currently accepts applications for evaluation, that are organized in myriad random orders, and therefore, the evaluators spend an inordinate amount of time determining whether "all of the pieces" have been provided, only because it is difficult for them to locate required data, in what amounts to a 3-4 inch stack of paper, the likely size of a typical application package.
Fourth, most challenges to your application will occur as a result of the SBA's examination of the information contained within the many enclosures (e.g., company and personal financial statements, taxes, economic/social disadvantage narratives, resumes, etc.) that you must provide as part of your application. However, the SBA doesn't provide applicants with a "clue" as to what they are looking for, within these enclosures that will jeopardize your chances for certification.
Fifth, and certainly not the least important, the SBA does not provide adequate, detailed, and timely personal, or one-on-one guidance to applicants, as they struggle to understand and complete the application process. "Just send your application to us, and we'll tell you if it's OK", or "You apply and we evaluate", are representative of the SBA's attitude to providing the informed, professional and "nitty-gritty" type of guidance needed to complete an application that will be accepted, without major issues.

The Joe Humphries Trust launched in Loughborough
The family of a teenage boy who died suddenly last year after his heart stopped beating has set up a Memorial Trust to raise awareness about a condition called Sudden Ar-rhythmic Syndrome.
Joe Humphries' parents and Martin Johnson, the former England and Leicester Tigers captain, launched the charity this morning. They want to highlight the fact that 12 young people die each week from undiagnosed heart problems.

An injury to your hand, wrist, elbow, or upper arm can adversely affect your life. Even the simplest everyday activities and movements can be difficult or painful.
There are 27 bones in the hand and wrist, along with tendons, ligaments, and muscles to connect them. That makes the hand and wrist prone to injury. Timely, proper treatment is essential for the overall, long-term health of the hand or arm. Without proper care of an injury, there's a potential for long-term pain, stiffness, arthritis, or limited mobility later in life.
The orthopaedic surgeons at UT Southwestern Medical Center are experts at evaluating, diagnosing, and treating minor and complicated injuries to the hand, wrist, elbow, and upper arm. In fact, we treat more wrist injuries than any hospital in Texas.
We can also treat surgeries that weren't as successful as expected to help restore function.
Whatever hand, wrist, or arm condition is affecting your life, the orthopaedic surgeons at UT Southwestern are ready to help you return to your life.
Some of the conditions we treat include:

Product Details Once upon a time there was a spider maiden who worked all day spinning webs when her two buggy step sisters just gobbled up all the good flies. One day the spider prince threw a big party and the spider maiden was left at home because all she had was raggedy webbing. Then her fairy god bug appeared and wove a beautiful gown. You could become the beautiful spider maiden in the Sparkling Spiderella Costume. This Gothic costume is great fun. The floor length black velvet gown has long bell sleeves. The simple unadorned bodice flows into the skirt. The high stand up collar has a spider wed design. This haunted princess costume has an elegant flare and a dark foreboding flavor. Goth just got a little bit more fun with the merging of haunted imagery with a fairytale favorite. This is one fairytale princess with a vampire bite. Step into my parlor said the spider to the fly.

We live in southern Md. but my brother lives in Baltimore, 9 miles from the port so we drove to his house, left our car there and he took us to the port and picked us up after. What a difference from driving to South Carolina or Florida. I hope Carnival decides to add 9 day cruises with different destinations from Baltimore in the very near future.
Embarkation was a snap. Within half hour of arriving at the port,(12:30) we were on board. The Pride is beautiful. I've read some reviews that claim the theme of the ship is "tacky" but I thought the paintings and sculptures were beautiful. If you like art, you'll find the decor as appealing as we did. Our cabin was roomy as are all Carnival cabins. I really liked the extended balcony. It allows free access into the cabin without having to constantly move the chairs and affords extra leg room.
A shout out to Joe, our cabin steward. He was terrific. Cudos to Igor too.
All of Carnival ships are clean but the Pride seemed to take it up another notch.
We ate at the Mermaid grill on Lido deck everyday and were happy with the variety. When we cruise, we pack shorts and t shirts and sandals and that is our attire from the time we board until we disembark.
The casino was ok. A little small and some of the slots were old but it was sufficient. Everyone in the casino, from the Floor Manager to the bartenders are fantastic and take the a little of the sting out of loosing. One of the reasons I love the Legend and Pride so much is the bar in the casino with live entertainment. Some of the slots are non smoking and half of the bar and half of the bar tables are non smoking. The smoking tables were always full and the smoking section of the bar was 3 deep while the non smoking area was empty. Since I am a smoker, I often looked at those empty tables longingly.
The entertainment on the ship was great, from the shows to the piano bar to the atrium bar singers.
I highly recommend the Pride. I had a terrific time and will certainly be back.

County Commissioner Hoelscher to face challenger
Budget focus for both candidates
SAN ANGELO, Texas - Two Republican candidates are facing off in the May 29 Republican primary for the office of Tom Green County Precinct 1 commissioner, an office charged with helping to maintain the financial solvency and oversee management of the county.
Incumbent Commissioner Ralph Hoelscher will seek a third term against Willie Ruiz, a nurse who is retired from a career in finance and accounting at Verizon.
"Generally for commissioners, it's budget" that's at issue, Precinct 3 Commissioner Steve Floyd said. "We're dealing with the taxpayers' money and we're all stewards of that money."
The county budget had a total general fund revenue of $33.3 million, according to the county's approved budget summary, and the county employs about 500 people.
While commissioners are charged with policymaking and business in the county, their actions are confined to what state law allows, Floyd said.
"They're much different from the city," Floyd said. "Counties can only do what the Legislature authorizes them to do." The county has no ordinance powers, he said.
Four commissioners serve with the county judge, the highest elected official in the county, and these five make up the Commissioners Court.
Commissioners are elected for four-year terms from a quarter of the county's population, and the county is divided into four quadrants.
The Commissioners Court is in charge of establishing the budget and the tax rate for the county. The commissioners handle most county business decisions, including approving any contractual work, going out for bids, applying for grants, and accepting grants and bids.
The Commissioners Court meets regularly each week at 9 a.m. on the second floor of the Edd B. Keyes Building at 113 W. Beauregard Ave.
Hoelscher has a $41,200 salary and a yearly auto allowance of $11,259, and a newly elected commissioner would make $37,080 and have the same auto allowance.
Commissioners handle the roads in their precincts. Precincts 1 and 3 on the north half of the county share a road and bridge crew and Precincts 2 and 4 to the south share a crew.
Precinct 1 takes in the northeast quarter of the county, and it is known by both commissioner candidates as a poorer area of the county, and one with more minorities.
The Commissioners Court also establishes precinct boundaries, decides on pay for county employees, attains property for rights of way, determines and enforces subdivision regulations, looks after county volunteer firefighting services and oversees county buildings and facilities such as the county courthouse, according to the Texas Association of Counties.
One constant battle that commissioners face is what they call "unfunded mandates," in which the Legislature passes a law and requires that the county pay the cost of carrying it out.
"Unfunded mandates are going to continue to be an issue," said Debbie Ingalsbe, a Hays County Commissioner Debbie who is the president of the County Judges and Commissioners Association of Texas.
The Republican primary winner will face Independent challenger Daniel Cardenas and Democratic candidate Jesse Martinez in the Nov. 6 election.
Early voting is this week at the Edd B. Keyes Building, 113 W. Beauregard Ave. from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. through Friday, from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Saturday, 12:30-5:30 p.m. Sunday, and 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. May 21-25.

Russia's Olympic moment: Let's really gay this f*cker up
So, the 2014 Winter Olympics. They're in Russia (specifically, Sochi), which right now hates on all the gays. What should we do?
Are we boycotting Russian vodka? Which vodka is actually Russian? Is Stoli really Russian, is Stoli really anti-gay? Is Stoli just desperate for attention? (And hey, whatever gripes some have against it, the vodka boycott thing's already been successful: the issue has hit the mainstream mostly due all the queers on Facebook constantly arguing over the boycott itself. Besides, what mainstream media outlet can resist the image of a bunch of queens tossing their precious martinis -- for human rights?)
I'm a queer who drinks a lot of vodka and hates bigotry -- and so far I'm kind of meh about the responses, as inspiring as they may be. Let's get better.
What about boycotting the entire Olympics? Should we sign an online petition? Will the Olympics have a gay Jesse Owens/Black Panthers salute moment?
What if, hazards our most milquetoast media representative, Frank Bruni, in the NY Times, "a 'silent show of solidarity,' [among athletes] like subtly raising rainbow flags during the opening ceremony, would 'wordlessly mock' the new legislation and force Russian officials to 'stand by and seethe ... Maybe that statement isn't a flag but 'a visible pin, an armband, a bracelet,' as Greg Louganis, an openly gay diver who won medals for the United States in three Olympics, recently suggested. Maybe it's something small stitched into the uniforms…"
Well! Why don't we just invite Vladimir Putin round for a cup of Earl Gray tea and snittily ruffle our petticoats in his direction while he's in the powder room?
Look, we're gay. We have power. We're the people behind most of the design, marketing, broadcast, and choreography of the Olympics. We're the reason Anita Bryant lived in fear of hairdressers and Jerry Falwell always looked like he had chicken fat dripping down his chin when the cameras rolled. We had decades of practice kiki-ing up the games during the Gay Olympics period. We also have a lot of straight athlete allies. Let's really offend some dickhead Russians with homosexuality!
(Not that the Sochi Olympics aren't kinda gay already -- I mean, have you seen the mascot? It's basically Snagglepuss in a kimono belt.)
Anyway, let's pull out the queer protest stops and get a little crazy at the games, here's how. And yes I'm going to invoke a bunch of offensive gay stereotypes here because fuck it we're fabulous.
OLYMPIC FAG-RAISING CEREMONY OK, the Olympic flag is already rainbow-colored, and the opening ceremony is centered around an eternal flame. Ralph Laren's outfits for the athletes will probably include berets and little scarves again, and you know the Russian gala presentation is going to have a lot of bears and some sort of ice queen in it. The only thing that could add even more splash of Mary to that homothon would be to replace the Olympic rings on the flag with a five-set of recently pierced nipples in various stages of healing and a horrible tribal circuit tattoo in the background. Meanwhile, someone replaces the soundtrack during the endless Parade of Nations with "Menergy."
ANAL LUGE Let's fashion the luge track as a giant lubed anal canal that spandex-clad athletes, already laying snugly atop one another on their apparatus -- perhaps done up in fleshtones to look even more penile -- shoot through like a rocket-powered dildo. Launching from a giant cave marked "Crisco," and careening through the (waterbased) greasy track, lugers come to rest on golden pillow of fulfillment that soon turns to romantic disappointment and, eventually, mere online acquaintanceship. Sponsorship opportunity: nothing says "luge lube" like AstroGlide.
SKI JUMP GLITTER BOMB This one's kind of self-explanatory, except that while the crowd is sheilding its eyes from the onslaught of tiny, colorful, razor-edged bits of glitter, the ski-jumper actually transforms during a mid-air double-sommersault into Tick, Hugo Weaving's character from Priscilla Queen of The Desert and sticks a tearful, over-the-top dramatic landing in apparent homage to Kerri Strug. Applause.
SNOWBUTCHING Rather than competing, female snowboarders form a commune specializing in plumbing, car repair, low-cost construction, and raising the most well-adjusted, multicultural kids ever.
TONGUE HOCKEY There are far too few porns that feature hunky, bearded, be-mulleted hockey players locked in steamy embraces on the ice. This year, let's use the Olympics to rectify that. Thanks in advance.
TRANSGENDER BOBSLED Start at the top as Barbara, land at the bottom as Bob.
QURLING No one really knows the rules to the obscure sport of curling except maybe the Canadians, and they're already gay anyway, so why not open it up to some pinker angles? During random periods of play, contestants could come together to perform a "Golden Girls" episode reenactment, engage in the art of vintage '50s beefcake magazine decoupage, bake an inventive new kind of dessert pastry using everyday junk food items from the grocery checkout aisle, or simply mime shopping for and rejecting various models of brightly colored high-top sneaker. Everybody wins a medal! (And somewhere a little gay Russian boy's obsession with mid-century modern furniture is vindicated through the power of gay culture.)
FIGURE SKATING Well duh.
Now, if only we can do something about the risk of having to mix silver, gold, and bronze jewelry. Also, can't we gussy up those podiums a little?
figuring that how gay or not gay something is might not just be the most important thing on the planet?
I speak for myself and everyone I know when I say we've heard enough about gays and their rights. I'm not against them, I'm not for them. I simply don't get involved because it's not my cause. But I do plan to ignore the Olympics for SOOO many reasons. It's gotten to be a huge grandstanding event by professional athletes, and WHO CARES anymore. There's no national pride, and now no gay pride. Ick.
Which straight SF elected official has endorsed the Russian vodka boycott? The answer is here:
Also, as Robbie Sweeny notes at his BoycottRussianVodka Facebook page, https://www.facebook.com/BoycottRussianVodka , we will be picketing outside BeatBox, 314 - 11th Street, on Wednesday, August 14 from 7 to 8 pm.
That's when the Mr Stoli contest is happening and we will educate folks as they enter the bar.
Finally, for a roundup of coverage of our successful Russian vodka dump last Tuesday at City Hall, including coverage from the Chinese language paper Sing Tao, go here:
Join us on Wednesday outside BeatBox!
So I think we're all opposed to this new anti-gay law in Russia and think it's appalling (well ok, maybe not the conservatrolls, but most of us in San Francisco are on the same page I think). I understand the burning desire to do something about oppression. But this boycott of Stoli makes no sense.
Let's say you were living in a foreign country, and some policy of the American government really ticked you off. Oh, let's make it easy... let's say it was before same sex marriage was legalized and you were living in one of many countries that allowed it, and you opposed America's policy. So you decide to boycott... let's see... think of a target that's vaguely American but has absolutely nothing to do with the policy. So you decide to boycott... the US film industry! The big studios are baffled at your stupidity and issue statements that they support gay rights and some even voluntarily give same sex partner benefits. But still you persist, because you don't want to let, you know, facts, get in the way of a good campaign and all that.
Yeah. That's about the same level of stoopid as the Stoli boycott. Stoli had nothing to do with the Russian government's anti-gay law. In fact, they opposed it. Here's what the company had to say about the anti-gay law and the boycott:
Not only do they have no influence on the Russian government, but they are opposed to the anti-gay law, *and* they may not even be a Russian company depending on what you think of as "Russian." Sorry to rain on your parade, but this is just lame.
boycotting Stoli has already proven effective because it's gotten the issue out in the mainstream in a way that, say, boycotting LUKOIL would not have. It's actually a great nightlife story: despite the supposed death of gay bars due to the mainstreaming of gay rights, boycotting liquor (ala the Coors boycott in the 80s) is still one of the most attention-getting things that gays can do.
I'm sorry that Stoli may be getting their feelings hurt (I hardly think they're gonna go broke), but maybe this will teach them to engage the community on a deeper level in their media outreach going forward to avoid such things in future...
Have never heard anything quite so infantile. When you grow up, you can post something we can all digest like adults. Saying that a boycott of something that has nothing to do with the issue JUST FOR THE ATTENTION to gay related issues is downright unethical and mean.
That's nice that it's gotten attention. But you're getting that attention by picking on a company that didn't do anything to hurt you. In fact, if anything, they seem to be on your side. This isn't the same as Coors, which was actively anti-gay. The line about "engaging the community on a deeper level" is really a load of BS. You could just as well pick a random company -one that is mildly on your side, and boycott them because they "don't engage the community" deeply enough for you. This isn't right, Marke, and no amount of spin will make it right.
Stoli is just one of them, Greg.
And Stoli just added "sexual orientation" in a panic to its policies last week, so yeah, the Stoli boycott may actually have promoted a specific LGBT cause, whether it was the intended one or no. Stoli certainly had no problem identifying itself with Russia before the boycott, or cashing in on the gay community via party stereotypes -- so it's taking a little hit now in the name of a broader cause, one it's intimately tied to. I think that's fair, and we'll see how it handles this situation. Holding a male beauty contest as damage control, and sending that clown Patrick Gallineaux to protests to timidly read statements, is probably not the best approach imho. But there you go.
Your point about Coors, however, is correct, I was talking about alcohol activism on a broader, more cultural level there.
You know, Russians drink a lot of tea as well as vodka. And even though many companies that make tea aren't Russian, tea is associated with Russia. As long as we're doing tenuous guilt-by-association excersizes, we should boycott tea as well, because tea producers haven't been deeply in tune with the community, or whatever it was you said. That would make just as much sense.
Maybe we should walk pickets in front of Samovar. They're shamelessly capitalizing on an association with a Russian symbol- and in the Castro too!
The Stoli boycott has gotten the issue out how far and to whom? Do you have any polling data to substantiate this, or do you and your friends doing things in an echo chamber mean that anyone else notices?
This is not OUR issue, it is but not directly. WE don't have to deal with the business end of this, Russian LGBT do. WE should act in solidarity with Russian LGBT. We respectfully defer to Russian LGBT the autonomy to call their own shots and should take whatever steps they ask us to, not do whatever we think will attract attention.
it is THEIR call not OURS.
Marcos: As for the "echo chamber," I urge you to look up how many major news outlets -- including the front page of the NYT today -- have covered the boycott.
And sure, let's stand with the activists -- but you realize the point of a protest is also emotional release and networking, yes? No one thought a bunch of freaks marching every month in SF was going to impeach George Bush, but it was all we could do when faced with powerlessness and rage, so it served its purpose that way. (This is also how governments attenuate unrest by allowing controlled protests btw.) For those of us outraged here, pouring a bunch of vodka down the drain is a cathartic act, that can clear our minds and help us focus on real solutions.
As usual, Marcos, your answer is not to actually do anything at all.
Because it's "cathartic?"
There's something you can do for catharsis Marke - it's called "therapy" or "using drugs." I know you're not a stranger to either.
Seriously, Marke, the position of the SFBG and its thin rolodex of ethically compromised sources is to cut self serving deals with the cossacks that allow them to overrun our neighborhoods and to abscond with their claims on the general fund while gnashing the teeth, wringing the hands (Tim was especially good at that) and the symbolic pouring out of vodka.
Organizing is only allowed when there is no chance that organizing will change anything. In that case, it is no longer organizing but acting out.
If some one desires exert view regarding blogging afterward i recommend him/her too go to see this blog, Keep up the pleasant job.
Marke, this ain't no party. This ain't no disco. This ain't no fooling around. This ain't no Mudd Club. Or CBGB. I ain't got time for that now.
If we cannot keep our own political house in order, and it is not me who is attenuating populist resistance but your cohorts over at the nonprofits and labor, then we're really not positioned to be acting on behalf of others who are facing the onslaught of pogroms. Nor do you have the record of political accomplishment to be commenting credibly on what does and does not lead to political success.
Political activity can serve as successful therapy. That happens when you work hard, do it right and win. Winning elections is better than the best sex.
But this lashing out, flailing just to appear like you're doing something is all about the activist, just like so much of our own identity politics fetishists here, not about the people facing pogroms. So much of middle class white politics is self indulgence of being seen by others being political. Nobody cares, really, nobody cares.
Does anyone else agree that the gays have taken things too far? I for one am sick to death of hearing about their hardships and abuse. If I were gay, I'd be happy that things are starting to turn around in the right direction, with gay marriage being allowed in almost all the states now. Victories should be savored one by one Wanting it all now, and not waiting for the cultural wheel to turn its slow revolution is just being impatient and childish. Look how long it took to abolish slavery. Give this a rest and stop hounding the rest of us with the pathetic displays that don't endear gays to the public. The best way to gain acceptance is to keep a low profile and ease your way into the system. The worst way is to throw it everyone's face, every day, and insist they swallow it whole the first time they see or hear about it. Sounds like a very big case of spoiled rotten brats.
You are trying to turn me on, aren't you?
...spoken like a true straight, white person....
"Does anyone else agree that the gays have taken things too far?"
No, I don't agree that "the gays" have taken things too far (whatever the fuck that means). And your willful-ignorance is appalling. You excreted this:
"with gay marriage being allowed in almost all the states now."
There are 50 states. Gay marriage is allowed in 13 (thirteen) and the District. That's "almost all" to you? Loca.
From Wikipedia:
As of August 2013, thirteen states (California, Connecticut, Delaware, Iowa, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New Hampshire, New York, Rhode Island, Vermont, and Washington), the District of Columbia, and five Native American tribes[n 1] have legalized the issuing of same-sex marriage licenses.
Poor Stoli!! Why is everyone picking on vodka???
Vodka never hurt anybody!!
What a terrible idea....boycotting booze!!! We have to drink!!! There isn't a choice!!!
Oh poor sweet Stoli.
Never hurt a fly.
They have the best interests of LGBTs at heart....they sponsor all our events because they love us SO MUCH!!
that American gays believe boycotting a Cypriot-based vodka company with a Russian name will force a Russian dictator to strong-arm his compliant parliament into changing a law with which they disagree.
Like most of those from the left?
Two snaps up sista!
I really don't think anybody believes a boycott of Stoli or Smirnoff is going to alter the political landscape of Russia. But here's the point - Gays drink vodka . Lots of it. The Russian vodka boycott, ridiculous as it was, got A LOT of people talking and helped spread the word about what's going on in Russia. They essentially linked what was taking place in Russia to a popular gay pastime.
Russia's just a such a shitty place it's hard to have an effective boycott of anything. Lukoil I guess? Maybe Gazprom? Aren't we well on our way to natural gas self sufficiency here in America anyway?
Whatever, I'm ranting. Point is, boycotting a place that nobody has any interest in visiting or buying items from ain't that easy.
We could just admit there's nothing we can do and instead give Russian gays visas to come live here. Of course I don't hear anyone advocating for that.
I have.
When I hear the term "dictator" casually thrown around to describe everyone from Kim Jong Un to Chavez to Putin to Barack Obama, I really get the feeling that people have no clue what the term really means.
Kim Jong Un, Suharto, Pinochet, Stalin... these guys are/were dictators.
Chavez (and now Maduro)... definitely not a dictator.
Societies like Russia and the United States are best described as oligarchies or flawed democracies. Love him or hate him or somewhere in between, Putin was, in fact, freely elected. The parliament is compliant because his party has an absolute majority. It has an absolute majority because the people voted for it. Yeah, they probably padded their win a bit (not as much as Americans think). Yeah, media coverage was favorable toward them. Yeah, there are institutional advantages to the ruling order. But the bottom line is that Putin is extremely popular, and he won no matter how you slice it.
And... the sad fact is that Russia has an extremely homophobic culture. There are opposition parties in the parliament -they actually have a broader range of opposition parties than we allow in our system, but even they didn't vote against it. On this issue, the culture of the whole country is just retrograde. Nobody wants to admit this, but this law wasn't enacted because a dictator forced it down the throats of an unwilling public. Quite the contrary, the government in this case is actually doing what the people want.
deny it, just like Americans but more so.
In any case, American gays are just painting themselves as alcoholic fools boycotting Stoli.
And "anal luge"? Is that helpful?
I wonder sometime who's on what side -- and who are the "useful idiots."
Time for everybody to make sure they are acting like grown ups.
Ask the 4th Estate (Press) if Chavez is not a dictator. You will get a much different answer.
So Marke is the new publisher and he wrote this article and he won't even write the word FUCKER. (jesus fucking christ).
Why sanitize the title of this article: "Let's really gay this f*cker [sic] up"
This is not a good sign of things to come with the "new progressive Bay Guardian." Tim Redmond would have written fucker and so would Steven Jones.
Who exactly are you trying to sanitize and sterilize the place for now? I think we already have enough of that going on in the Castro with the prudes there.
If you really want to "gay" something up, you don't use asterisks in a sex word to sanitize it.
has always been to avoid putting the word "fuck" in all its glorious forms on the cover or the homepage, just an age-old Guardian tradition I like to honor. People also tend to share things more on social media that way. Besides, I thought it looked funny -- to me, asterisks are like tiny puckered anuses, riding high atop the rough, hard alphabet of life.
"Conservatives" complain that gays push details of their private sex life onto others. I've quit arguing with them in that regard based on this sort of nonsense.
How does a graphic description of a sex act promote the cause of equal rights?
all those periods, colons, pounds, interroblasts, backslashes, pilcrows, obeli, and rampant interjections -- how *do* you even stand to write in english without clutching a fan?
I prefer Taaka, always have. It's cheap and made in San Jose, California.
Mixes nice with grapefruit juice.
The French do everything better, don't they? I discovered it right about the time the right wing was on a tear hating on France. It's always nice to thumb your nose at the wingnuts, but I wouldn't drink it if it didn't taste good.
But that's beside the point.
We should try being FOR something (like maybe supporting Gray Goose because France just passed gay marriage) vs. always being AGAINST something.
I've worked in liquor distribution. Did a few taste test promotions and vodka made from grapes always won out easily.
Of course voddy purists will insist that if it's not made from potatoes, it's not Vodka.
In other words GG is technically unaged or raw brandy.
Hi My name is "jimmy" just want to share my experience to all my viewers in the world on how i got my love back and saved my marriage.because i really love Lilian so much that i can not even do without. I was married for 7years with Lilian and 2kids and we lived happily until things started getting ugly and we had fights and arguments almost every time... it got worse at a point that she filed for divorce... I tried my best to make her change her mind & stay with me cause i loved her with all my heart and didn't want to loose her but everything just didn't work out...she moved out of the house and still went ahead to file for divorce... I pleaded and tried everything but still nothing worked. The breakthrough came when someone introduced me to this wonderful, great spell caster who eventually helped me out... I have never been a fan of things like this but just decided to try reluctantly cause I was desperate and left with no choice... He did special prayers and used roots and herbs... Within 7 days she called me and was sorry for all the emotional trauma she had cost me, moved back to the house and we continue to live happily, the kids are happy too and we are expecting our third child. I have introduced him to a lot of couples with problems across the world and they have had good news..Just thought I should share my experience cause I strongly believe someone out there need's it... You can email him via firstname.lastname@example.com Don't give up just yet, the different between "Ordinary" & "Extra-Ordinary" is the "Extra" so make extra effort to save your marriage/relationship if it's truly worth it. you can contact him for you on help

The color is beautiful but there's way too much chunky glittery fallout. Even if I apply my eyeshadow first, then my face makeup glitter somehow still ends up all over my face. Although I love this color I rarely use it as I don't want to look like a disco ball! I've even tried wetting my brush with fix plus and patting the color on but nothing seems to reduce the fallout. Which is a shame as I really enjoy the color.

I may be in the minority here, but I love Midnight Cowboy Rides Again! It is not a color for everyday, really more of a going out color in my opinion. My favorite way to use MCRA is as a lid color with a medium matte brown (Tease from Naked 2) in the crease. So many people complain of the fallout from UD's glittery shades, it can be a pain but can be dealt with. Using a slightly tacky shadow base will help the glitter stick. Glitter Glue by Too Faced is excellent, just don't apply over your whole lid. Glitter Glue can be a pain to blend over so only use it where you are putting your glitter shadow. Also NYX's Shadow Pencil in Milk makes a great base for glitter shadows. Lastly, I never apply glitter with a brush, the best way I have found is to tap the shadow on my lid with my finger. Hopefully some of these tips might help you all enjoy Midnight Cowboy Rides Again!

MCRA is a shimmery/glittery champange-gold neutral. Over a bare lid, it looks like a soft rose gold; over primer, that color is more pronounced, and the glitter stuck better. Regardless, the glitter didn't feel large or gritty. It was also easy to blend. A huge drawback with this shade, though, is that it's crazy-prone to fallout. I had a noticeable amount within an hour. However, I got great wear otherwise. The color itself didn't fade for 8 hours without primer, and I made it to 10 with a base.

I first discovered this in the bamboo palette and fell in love with it instantly. It's really shimmery and the glitter in the shadow is chunky, but I love shimmer so that doesn't really bother me. My mother borrowed my palette once too and loved this colour a lot more than me, so for her birthday I decided to pick her up the individual eyeshadow. A couple of weeks later she accidentally dropped it on the carpet - not even from a massive height and the whole thing smashed she had to throw it. I love UD shadows, I think they're so pretty, pigmented and really high quality, but I don't think I'll buy individual shadows from them again, because of this reason and I think with the palettes you get more value for money.

I bought this from Urban Decay's website when it was on sale for $6. I love Stila's Kitten eyeshadow, so I was hoping this would be similar with a little extra.
Well, all it seems to have is extra glitter, which is now all over my face. The fallout from applying this was the worse I've ever had. The glitter also stuck to my face so much that I was unable to remove it with makeup brushes or sponges. So not I'm at work looking like a tweenager on my way to a Katy Perry concert. :(

This colour is beautiful but the glittee falls out no matter what. It's a perfect colour but it's pointless wearing as the glitter does fall even with loads of primer being Used. It's a shame because this shadow is perfect for me.

Good color pay off but I can't imagine getting any practical use out of this. I have no idea why it's a best seller. I've never had this much fall out with ANY eyeshadow, including broken shadows and pigments. The under eye glitter is so hard to clean up without removing your whole face along with it.

Stories We Like: A Guide to the Comma
"The common raven is easily tamed, but is mischievous and thievish, and has been popularly regarded as a bird of evil omen and mysterious character." [OED]O.E. also used hræmn, hremm. The raven standard was the flag of the Danish Vikings.
Heb. 'orebh, from a root meaning "to be black" (comp. Cant. 5:11); first mentioned as "sent forth" by Noah from the ark (Gen. 8:7). "Every raven after his kind" was forbidden as food (Lev. 11:15; Deut. 14:14). Ravens feed mostly on carrion, and hence their food is procured with difficulty (Job 38:41; Ps. 147:9). When they attack kids or lambs or weak animals, it is said that they first pick out the eyes of their victims (Prov. 30:17). When Elijah was concealed by the brook Cherith, God commanded the ravens to bring him "bread and flesh in the morning, and bread and flesh in the evening" (1 Kings 17:3-6). (See ELIJAH.) There are eight species of ravens in Palestine, and they are everywhere very numerous in that land.
