The newly-free Amanda Bynes is moving on with her life by enrolling at the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising in Irvine, Calif., reports say.
A week after being released from a Malibu facility where she was being treated for mental illness, she's already making plans for the next phase.
She's also been spotted rocking a "Twerk Team" hat. So there's that.
Bynes' gear could possibly be a peace offering to a fellow former child star. Before being hospitalized, she'd frequently call Miley Cyrus "ugly" on Twitter.
Since then, Miley Cyrus Twerking has become a global sensation.
As for Amanda Bynes, her attorney said upon her release from rehab that "she's mentioned before she's interested in creating a clothing line."
Looks like she's back to pursuing that dream head on.

A. Oils listed with W (which stands for winter) can have different numerical values different combinations within what is called a multi-grade diesel engine oil. For example, viscosity grades in the market today are 15W-40, 10W-40, 10W-30, 5W-40 and 5W-30. The lower the number next to the W indicates the oil can flow more easily at colder temperatures and can be pumped more easily into the engine. You should always refer to your engine manufacturer's temperature application range for the correct range of temperature for the various viscosity grades. For comparison, an engine manufacturer may rate a 15W-40 oil only down to +15F whereas as oil such as a 5W-40 will be rated by the same engine manufacturer down to -20F or lower. Ultimately the advantage of the lower W- viscosity grades in cold weather can significantly offer several start up benefits including reduced engine wear, improved fuel economy, less stress on batteries and starters and less dependency on electrical block heaters which may also use less electricity for a fleet in the winter. As an added comment, cold box testing comparing 15W-40 oil to a 5W-40 resulted in the 15W-40 taking 5 times longer at 32F to reach the engine parts. However, the other factor is high temperature and many people think the 5W-40 is too thin at higher temperature but the 5W-40 is actually rated at the same high temperature. The thing that is often difficult to understand is that a lower W number improves flow at start up but at operating temperature achieves the viscosity range of the higher number providing the necessary oil film to protect engine parts. There are other factors to consider with multi-grade oils but this is the basic concept to consider.

Doris Duke Fellowships for the Promotion of Child Well-Being -- seeking innovations to prevent child abuse and neglect
Thanks to the generous support of the Doris Duke Charitable Foundation, Chapin Hall at the University of Chicago is pleased to offer the Doris Duke Fellowships for the Promotion of Child Well-Being. These fellowships are designed to identify and develop a new generation of leaders interested in and capable of creating practice and policy initiatives that will enhance child development and improve the nation's ability to prevent all forms of child maltreatment.
The fellows receive an annual stipend of $25,000 for up to two years to support the completion of their dissertation and related research at their academic institution. Up to 15 fellowships are awarded annually. Fellows are guided by an academic mentor whom they select; fellows also identify a policy or practice mentor to assist them in better understanding how to frame their research questions with an eye toward maximizing policy and practice relevance.
Because the promotion of child well-being and the prevention of child maltreatment require knowledge and collaboration from diverse fields, the program is multidisciplinary in scope and approach. Fellows are selected from a range of academic disciplines, including—-but not limited to—-social work, child development, public health, medicine, public policy, education, economics, psychology, and epidemiology. In order to maximize the opportunities for interdisciplinary learning, Chapin Hall is building a sustainable peer learning network among the fellows and mentors through a series of in-person meetings, webinars, conference calls, and social networking opportunities.
Meet the Fellows
We are now accepting applications for Cohort Five of the Doris Duke Fellowships for the Promotion of Child Well-Being--seeking innovations to prevent child abuse and neglect. Application instructions and forms can be found on the Application for Doris Duke Fellowships: Cohort Five page. Applications will be accepted through December 15, 2014.

Think Progress:
House and Senate conservatives just agreed to move forward on another budget-busting tax bill favoring the wealthiest Americans. The latest plan ? announced today ?after months of tense negotiations and slipped deadlines? ? will spend $70 billion to extend the 15 percent tax rate for capital gains and dividends until 2010. The agreement ?paves the way for House approval of the measure as early as Wednesday. The Senate could clear the bill for Bush?s desk by week?s end.?
According to a study by the Tax Policy Center, the tax cuts overwhelmingly benefit the richest Americans:

The deadline for Mississippi counties to decide whether or not to accept the state's offer for 129 free touch voting machines or upgrade the present paper ballot counting system is Aug. 19.
Lauderdale County would need an additional 31 machines to complete the system, which would cost a total of $100,000 to $105,000.
To upgrade the present system to the state standard would cost $272,000.
Election commission chairman Ann Watts met with a committee of two supervisors, Ray Boswell and Jimmie Smith, to discuss the new machines.
Some groups have expressed concern about whether the votes can be verified. Watts said a tape within the machine records the votes and an image can be printed from the tape.
Watts also tried to explain why the state has decided to buy from only one manufacturer.
"Buying in bulk is saving the counties. If the counties just went out on their own and bought them, (it) would be a larger amount," said Watts.
"But what I'm saying is, if Eric Clark is going to give Lauderdale County X amount of dollars for one machine, why wouldn't he give us X amount of dollars for the other and let Lauderdale County spend it as they wished?" asked District 5 County Supervisor Ray Boswell.
Watts said the uniform system throughout the state has its advantages.
"If you move from Lauderdale County to DeSoto, you will be voting the same identical way. In other words, wherever you move in the state of Mississippi, you would know how to vote on that voting device which would be a plus," Watts said. "You know, there's some pros and there's some cons."
Watts and Boswell will appear on WTOK's public affairs program, On the Record, Sunday at 5:30 p.m. to discuss the voting machines.

The UK government has come under fire for threatening energy supplies by delaying the introduction of capacity payments for thermal-generation electricity plants.
UK utility SSE said it was taking several units from its power plant fleet, totalling around 1GW, off line by the end of 2014. It deems them no longer profitable to run in the wake of low margins from gas-fired plants, policies boosting the carbon price and the delay to the capacity mechanism.
This is in addition to the closure two 490MW units at its Ferrybridge coal-fired plant next year under the Large Combustion Plant Directive (LCPD).
"[The] government needs to bring forward to 2014 capacity payments for existing plant if it wants to reduce the risk of a serious capacity crunch in the next three years," said SSE in a statement. "[A] review has been conducted against a backdrop of challenging energy market conditions with continued extremely low spark spreads and many new emission regulations which have weighed heavily on the viability of thermal generation plant."
It added the constrictions imposed on the plants that have opted out of the LCPD, and the introduction of the carbon floor price at an "unexpectedly high level" has caused these plants to be unprofitable.
Capacity payments are not due to be introduced until 2018. There are also uncertainties over qualification criteria for the capacity payments and it is not known whether plants already in operation will receive them.
UK energy minister John Hayes defended the government's stance. "The amount of spare power available today is currently comfortable. As old infrastructure closes over the coming years, we expect this margin to reduce but we will make sure it stays manageable," he said.
"We are not complacent about this, which is why we have an insurance policy - the capacity market. We're considering how and when this can best be used to bring about any necessary increase in supply or reduction in demand."
The news comes amid concerns that the UK faces a capacity squeeze because of an ailing power plant fleet. The construction of replacement low-carbon generation plants have stalled over investor uncertainty, blamed on unclear governmental policies (see EDEM 27 February 2013).
"I'm not at all shocked, it is an entirely sensible option for SSE. Their thermal capacity which is ceasing operations is uneconomical and it is not likely to return to profitability in the short or medium term," Stephen Hunt, a utilities analyst at UBS, told ICIS.
The 735MW gas-fired Keadby plant now faces closure, as does a 120MW unit at Uskmouth, and two units totalling 60MW at the Slough biomass plant. The output at the gas-fired Peterhead plant is also set to be reduced.
"The news that Keadby would be deep-mothballed is a little bit of a shock. It has only just received upgrades. But it would not be profitable to run in any case," Hunt said.
Energy and Climate Change Committee member Peter Lilley also criticised the government's approach. He told ICIS: "This illustrates the absurdity of the system we created when Parliament signed up to the Climate Change Act in a spasm of self-righteousness and an absence of hard-headed scrutiny. We have created a ludicrous system which makes high cost, unreliable energy drive out lower cost, reliable generating capacity."
The Department of Energy and Climate Change (DECC) recently revealed that it was considering extending the lives of coal-plants subject to the Industrial Emissions Directive (IED) to mitigate a capacity squeeze (see EDEM 20 March 2013).
Plants generating some 20GW of capacity are subject to the IED. It stipulates that, by 2016, the plants must either opt in, and invest in reducing emissions, or opt out and close.
Extending the life of these plants, however, may not remedy capacity issues, says Hunt. "The IED deadline is still a few years away and companies still have time to decide whether to opt in," he added. "However the capacity crunch will come before their deadline, so it will not be avoided by keeping these plants alive." Katie McQue

Six ways for gardeners can survive winter with style.
Power through branches with ease.
Designers may select plant combos based on the amount of sunlight, water and soil type in a garden bed. They may create layers of beauty by weaving together mixtures of fuzzy, water capturing leaves with strands of hair like grasses. Or they may look at building a bed filled with layers of color that change throughout the year in an ever-changing rainbow of seasonal flowers, leaves and fruit. And, quite often a garden's splendor is the result of a not-so-obvious careful combination of plants that provide for one another in ways that are nothing short of symbiotic. The result: healthy, gorgeous, productive and lower maintenance outdoor spaces.
One of the most well known cooperative-planting combos is known as a 3-sisters garden. In these designs squash, corn and bean family plants are grown in combination and are usually very lovely and bountiful. The corn provides the bean a climbing tower. The beans build nitrogen, which the corn craves. And the squash grows below, shading out weeds. Win-win-win.
At Summer Run Farm, Organic CSA farmer Cathryn Baerwald takes a different approach to building symbiosis in the vegetable beds. In some spaces, she plants crimson clover – a well-known cover crop – in the beds with her pumpkins and other fall squash plants. The clover fixes nitrogen and helps keep down weeds among the squash plants. If she gets the timing right, those clover flowers will attract the bees and other insects she needs to get the squash plants pollinated and forming delicious fruit. Plus, by the time she harvests the fall squash, it's generally too late to till her soggy fields. Fortunately, she's already got a growing cover crop in place for the winter ahead. And, the fields look fantastic!
Another trick from Cathryn's fields of plenty is to mix pest-prone plants with plants that attract pest predator insects. Aphids arrive throughout the growing year, and before you know it, they'll suck the life right out of your beautiful plants. Fortunately, lady beetles (aka lady bugs) and soldier beetles will devour aphids fast. Rather than pay to order bags of predator bugs from a nursery or farm supplier, consider planting their favorite foods near those aphid-prone plants. On the farm, Cathryn seeds cilantro in the shade of her corn. The cilantro thrives and produces a delicious harvest in a slightly cooler, protected environment, which the corn provides. Once the cilantro blooms, the nectar-loving soldier beetles flock toward the banquet, slurping up nectar and rounding out their sweet tooth with some protein-rich corn-sucking aphids on the side. And, bonus! The feathery white flowers above delicate cilantro leaves is stunning below the sturdy, masculine stalks of maze. Imagine how lovely that same lacy look would be combined with your aphid-ridden roses!
Even if your plot isn't farm-sized, planting your garden with symbiosis in mind will help reduce your maintenance, improve your garden productivity, all while giving you a beautiful, healthy outdoor setting to enjoy at home.

text: While Rosen Is Pursued, Gregory's Gun Violation Gets a Pass Print article Send a Tip by Tom Fitton 21 May 2013 post a comment If there is one lesson I have learned over my decade and a half at Judicial Watch, it is this: you must never overestimate the hypocrisy of the Left--especially in covering for their own. Lest you have even the slightest doubt, cast an eye to the outrageous behavior of District of Columbia Attorney General Irvin B. Nathan when he allowed NBC-TV's David Gregory to walk away scot free for a firearm offense, even while openly acknowledging "the clarity of the violation of the law." We don't know for certain what prompted Nathan to decline to prosecute Gregory. We do know that, according to the Washington Post, until the Republican sweep in 2010, he had been the House Democrats' top lawyer. We also know that he was appointed attorney general by D.C. Democrat Mayor Vincent Gray. And we know that some legal experts have questioned why Nathan did not recuse himself from the case when it was discovered that he had a personal relationship with David Gregory's wife. Clearly more information was required. On January 14, 2013, William A. Jacobson, founder and author of the outstanding blog website, Legal Insurrection, submitted a District of Columbia Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request to the D.C. Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) and Office of the Attorney General (OAG) seeking access to the following records: 1. The January 9, 2013 letter from Lee Levine on behalf of David Gregory, referenced in the letter datedJanuary 11, 2013 from Attorney General Irvin B. Nathan to Mr. Levine which was publicly disclosed on that date. 2. All communications between the District of Columbia Office of Attorney General and/or Metropolitan Police Department, on the one hand, and legal counsel for David Gregory and/or NBC News, on the other hand, with regard to the incident involving the display on television by Mr. Gregory of an alleged high-capacity ammunition clip (the "Gregory incident"). 3. All documents in the possession of the MPD and OAG regarding the Gregory incident, to the extent not exempted from disclosure under applicable law, including but not limited to witness statements, evidence review and possession records, interview notes, and forensic testing. On February 20, 2013, OAG informed Jacobson that it was withholding certain requested records, including the January 9, 2013, letter from NBC attorney Lee Levine, as well as responsive emails between OAG and MPD. (We just learned the letter from Levine was made available to the media, but is being withheld from us!) The OAG also withheld in their entirety an affidavit and a warrant responsive to the Jacobson FOIA request. On April 17, 2013, MPD informed Jacobson that it was withholding responsive records as well. This past week, Judicial Watch filed a FOIA lawsuit on Jacobson's behalf asking that the Court to declare OAG and MDP in violation of the law and to order them to produce the records without further delay. The known facts in the Gregory case are simple. On Sunday December 23, 2012, the "Meet the Press" host interviewed the National Rifle Association's Wayne LaPierre concerning firearms policy in the United States. During the course of the interview, Gregory exhibited a high-capacity ammunition clip. The possession of such an ammunition clip is in violation of the law of the District of Columbia. Gregory displayed the ammunition clip despite the fact that, according to the D.C. Office of the Attorney General,"NBC was clearly and timely advised by an MPD (Metropolitan Police Department) employee that its plans to exhibit on the broadcast a high capacity magazine would violate D.C. law, and there was no contrary advice from any other federal official." Some argued that, in accordance with D.C. law, Gregory should have been charged with a weapons violation and taken into custody, as other alleged offenders have been. The MPD failed to do so, however, and in early January announced that it had completed its two-week investigation and presented the case to the OAG "for a determination of the prosecutorial merit of the case." On January 11, 2013, after just two days of deliberation, Attorney General Nathan sent a letter to NBC saying that his office would not prosecute Gregory, "despite the clarity of the violation of this important law." The Attorney General added, "There is no doubt of the gravity of the illegal conduct in this matter..." Yet, in what surely must be one of the most glaring non sequiturs I've seen, Nathan then refused to prosecute Gregory. And the Washington Times' outstanding editorialist Emily Miller well summed up the absurdity of the situation when Gregory first committed his violation: The District came up with its overly restrictive laws in response to the Supreme Court overturning the capital city's 30-year gun ban. The statutes shouldn't apply just to regular people but to the rich and powerful as well. The District should either repeal its over-the-top restrictions or send a squad car to take David Gregory into custody. The way Gregory's prosecution decision was handled undermines confidence in the fair administration of justice. If Gregory shouldn't be prosecuted then no one should be – and the law should be rescinded. Our client Prof. Jacobsen also is seeking justice in the public interest: "The documents being withheld will help shed light on the details of this highly publicized non-prosecution, which raised issues as to whether well-connected and famous D.C. insiders were treated as any other citizen in a similar situation. I appreciate Judicial Watch assisting in this search for the truth." Let's hope the courts put an end to this cover-up.

Lets Talk Blinds - Live Chat
or Call Us
This is my first honeycomb blind purchase. I purchased this blind with the TDBU feature and really like this option. The blind allows a soft natural glow to enter the room (it is in a bathroom), but also offer the needed privacy. I will be curious to see how durable it is. The only thing I did not like about this blind was the installation. I followed the directions, but could not install the blind. After inspection, I discovered that the installation instructions were wrong and did not allow for enough clearance to clear the end pieces. I had to remove the brackets and re-drill the holes an additional 1/2" more toward the center on each side. Once I moved the brackets, the blind snapped easily into place. The blind took a little longer to make than I expected; it was over 3 weeks. Email communication was OK; I was notified at 14 days that my order would take longer. I was not notified that my order had shipped; although I was pleasently surprised when it did arrive.
On the first set I made an error when I ordered the length. I reordered the same drapes with the correct lengths and am completely satisfied with the result. The installationwould have been easier had you mentioned the clip distance is relative to the length of the headrail ands transferred to the window opening.
the phone help to order was useful. I like the blinds and they look good up. I was not able to install following the instructions as drilled holes 2" from the edge and would hit nails, 3" out worked better. The top down feature is nice though of course adds more strings. I have found consistently that the shades do not go to the bottom of the window--approx 1 1/2" gap
I have seen alot better blinds but for the money not bad
We're happy with our top/down, bottom/up cellular shades that we ordered although they were a little scratched and 1 out of 4 didn't catch/hold its position, which required contacting customer service, waiting for a new part to arrive and then self-installing new part without any directions. Not Ideal.
Featured on ABC's Extreme Makeover: Home Edition. Honeycomb and Cellular Shades provide the best form, function, beauty, and versatility in the window coverings industry today. Sometimes referred to as Cellular blinds, Select Blinds 3/8" light filtering cellular shades provide the greatest color selection and choice of options available, including top down bottom up and Carefree Cordless Lift System.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Sue2014 Amazing hotel and staff The W Retreat Koh Samui is such a "Sweet Spot". Our entire family enjoyed the hotel, staff, and amenities. We can not RAVE enough about the the staff. We have been to many resorts all over the world and this Resort and its family have been among the BEST! When we first arrived we thought everyone was just overly nice to us, but we soon found out that this is "their personality", treating everyone like friends. It was quite refreshing!!! Our daughter got a pretty bad sinus infection while we were there and she has asthma so it can get bad so we called for a hotel dr. Although they did not have one on staff they told us how to get needed items in Thailand and called to make sure the pharmacy had what we needed. Our hotel friends (staff) sent FLOWERS to our daugher the next day!!! This is the most incredible and personable thing anyone has everyone for our family on vacation. My daughter was so touched she actually cried when left. The activities we booked were fab and we took the suggestions of the hotel staff and we were very happy with all, diving and ATVing, both a must do. The hotel is a little out of the way from some of the main shopping spots, but you CAN negotiate prices to get to the shopping areas. The hotel van is accessible to take you to these spots and it was convenient, but at times we wanted to do our own thing. Our family LOVED the rooms, the hotel amenities and of course the "Sweet Spot", my husband being an ice cream connoisseur!!! Please make sure to put the W Retreat in Koh Samui on your list of places to go!!! Room Tip: All rooms are absolutely gorgeous. In the jungle suites, go higher to get an ocean view. March 8, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by QingWest Excellent Hotel and Manager/Staff We spent 5 days here in early Sep. Despite being the wet season we only had one overcast day during which it drizzled rather than poured. The property is set on a hillside leading down to the beach. It is an all-villa property divided into Jungle ones on the hillside (3 tiers) and Ocean View ones at the top tier, Tropical nearer to the beach and Ocean Front actually facing the beach. The property and surroundings are very pleasant and we enjoyed simply walking around. The hills are steep and provide good exercise, but there are buggys to drive you around. The resort is well-maintained as are the rooms. Be aware that it is designed to be a contemporary resort, and you will not see traditional thai architecture here. WYSIWYG. Breakfast was excellent, with some minor changes every day for variety. The restaurant is perched on a cliff overlooking the sea/bay and affords fantastic views in the morning. We also tried the Japanese restaurant which could probably do better. The famous "Sweet Spots" were very welcome, and well-patronised :). More choices in flavours would have been appreciated. The gym and spa looked well-appointed, though we did not use them. The communal pool is long but rather narrow. Since each villa has it's own pool you will probably spend more time in your own pool - we did. The beach is clean and the sand fairly fine. The water is murky but shallow up to about 50m from shore. There is a sea sports stand providing complimentary equipment. Since the hotel is set on a cape, the other side has minimal beach, but has a constant sea breeze and is great for sitting at the bar and snoozing. Platinum recognition: we were upgraded to a larger villa which was very much appreciated as we had kids with us. We were also accorded a late check-out. As with other W Hotels there is no lounge or drinks hour. The highlight of our trip was the General Manager, and his team. From beginning till end we were toasted and feted like royalty. Team members approched us whenever they felt that we might need help, and yet were unobtrusive. Rather than gush anymore, I will say that they made our stay what it was. September 26, 2012

Several other researchers have traversed territory similar to personality theorist Ernest Hartmann over the past two decades. Psychologist Elaine Aron has illuminated various facets of what she calls the "highly sensitive person" or HSP (Aron 1996)... Harvard professors Jerome Kagan and Nancy Snidman have studied the differences between "high reactive" and "low reactive" individuals (Kagan and Snidman 2004)... educator Mary Sheedy Kurcinka has profiled what she terms the "spirited child" (one who exhibits high energy as well as sensitivity) (Kurcinka 2006)... researchers Sheryl Wilson and Theodore Barber have profiled the "fantasy prone" person (Wilson and Barber 1983)...psychologist Sharon Heller has examined what makes someone "sensory defensive" (Heller 2002)...and physicians James J. Lynch and Gabor Maté have chronicled "Type C" people who seem unwilling or unable to acknowledge their feelings (Lynch 1985, Maté 2003).
Of late, researcher Susan Cain's book on introversion has grabbed popular attention. In Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World that Can't Stop Talking, the author draws an important distinction between shyness and introversion. (Cain 2012) Shyness, she says, is the fear or social judgment whereas introversion is "really a preference for less stimulation." This interpretation is consistent with what Aron has found - that high sensitivity is not the same thing as shyness. Indeed, approximately 30% of highly sensitive people are gregarious. But, as they still tend toward being careful and deep thinkers, highly reactive, and easily over-stimulated, they need much more downtime than do extroverts to recover.

WASHINGTON (AP) - A gun-control organization led by former Rep. Gabrielle Giffords and her husband, former astronaut Mark Kelly, is focusing on at least 11 congressional races this year.
Americans for Responsible Solutions says it will back a slate of mostly Democratic incumbents who have supported efforts to expand gun sale background checks that stalled in the Senate. The group has raised about $14.5 million since it was founded in January 2013.
Some of the Senate Democrats receiving help include Mark Udall of Colorado, Mary Landrieu of Louisiana and Kay Hagan of North Carolina. The group also plans to help two Republicans: Maine Sen. Susan Collins and Pennsylvania Rep. Mike Fitzpatrick.
Giffords was severely wounded in a January 2011 shooting in Arizona that killed six people.

Patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) whose respiratory tracts are colonized with Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA) may develop a specific opsonic deficiency for alveolar macrophage phagocytosis of PA. We examined the possible role of altered antibody (Ab) isotype in this phenomenon by measuring serum levels and distribution of IgG and IgG subclass Ab (IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, and IgG4) to the major opsonic immunodeterminant, serotype-specific lipopolysaccharide (LPS), by means of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays employing monoclonal secondary antibodies, and comparing these results to the serum opsonic capacity in an in vitro murine alveolar macrophage phagocytic assay. Twenty-one patients with CF who were colonized with PA had approximately a 30-fold elevation of PA LPS IgG Ab levels and higher IgG subclass 1-4 Ab compared to 10 uncolonized patients with CF and 11 healthy controls (p less than 0.05-0.0005 depending on the isotype). Colonized patients with CF had a shift in PA LPS Ab distribution toward IgG3 compared to uncolonized patients with CF (p less than 0.02). A surprising finding was that uncolonized patients with CF had lower levels (p less than 0.05) and proportion (p less than 0.002) of PA LPS IgG2 Ab than controls, with an apparent shift to higher levels and proportion of PA LPS IgG4 (p less than 0.01). Serum from colonized patients with CF showed diminished opsonic capacity for phagocytosis of PA compared to uncolonized patients and controls (p less than 0.005), with 42% showing inhibitory activity. Functional Ab was also found to be inhibitory at high (greater than 500 ng/ml) concentrations. Serum opsonic capacity appeared to include a noncomplement cofactor for optimal activity.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

I know it's technically a syrup, but I was expecting something thicker. This is very watery and doesn't sit well on pancakes or waffles - just makes them soggy =(

The Wayúu Cultural Festival absorbs you with its traditions, legends, customs, and music from this amazing Indian culture.
Lies Kerstens
You are here:
Wayúu Culture Festival
The most important cultural event in the department of La Guajira, in the northern part of Colombia, is celebrated every year sometime between the months of May and June. It is known as the Wayúu Culture Festival and lasts a weekend. The site of this important festival is the municipality of Uribia, the largest Wayúu settlement in Colombia.
The Wayúu show the world their enormous cultural wealth through a mix of traditional music, rituals, customs, handicrafts, forums, expeditions, and games, all of which have fostered the preservation of ancestral customs, traditions, and folklore.
The history of the festival began in 1984 with the election of the first Wayúu woman (a Majayut). She decided to make public the essence of their culture through dances, food, games, and traditional medicine and music.
The first festival was held in 1985 on the occasion of the fiftieth anniversary of the foundation of Uribia. In 2006 the festival was proclaimed cultural heritage of our nation.
The Wayúu Culture Festival offers a wide range of activities to suit any preference:
Wayúu children and young people act out the traditions of the culture:
Contests play an important role in the festival. Typical instruments like the kasha, tariraü, wontoloyaa, and turompa; unpublished stories narrated in chants or verses in décima; traditional dances; and horse races are the main ones.

Hillary's new 'do a signal she's hitting the campaign trail?
By MICHAEL SNEED email@example.com June 4, 2013 5:58PM
Hillary Rodham Clinton
Article Extras
Updated: July 6, 2013 6:28AM
Hillary's hair!
It's shorter!!!
The press may have focused on former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's jokes about her penchant for pantsuits at the trendy Council of Fashion Designers of America gala honoring fashion designer Oscar de la Renta Monday night, but Hillary's hairdo is the story.
◆ To wit: The former first lady, who once told Sneed how much she liked to experiment with hairdos, may be giving us an early signal she plans to run for president.
◆ Why? Hillary, who trimmed her long locks after leaving the State Department, is now sporting a look akin to her campaign coif. She no longer looks like Benjamin Franklin.
◆ Translation: Consider her cranium when she's running for office: In 2003, she wore a slick, short hairdo when she was a senator from New York. Ditto when she was running for the Dem presidential nomination in 2008.
◆ Hillary's closer-cropped style may have skipped the notice of de la Renta, one of her favorite designers. But his comment upon accepting the award from her was duly noted.
"I hope she's going to be our next president," he said.
◆ No kidding. His clothes, worn by former first ladies Nancy Reagan, Barbara Bush, Hillary Clinton and Laura Bush, are not popular with first lady Michelle Obama.
The tweet sheet . . .
Tweet twaddle: The White House is being blasted for ineptness with the media, but this takes the birthday cake.
◆ To wit: On Monday, the White House's official Twitter account tweeted it was veep wife Jill Biden's birthday, but they were two days off. It's Wednesday.
◆ Translation: If they can't get a birthday right, what are they getting right?
Rahm 'em . . .
Mayor Rahm Emanuel, who celebrated his daughter Leah's bat mitzvah with his family this weekend — will take a father-daughter trip to Israel to celebrate in mid-June.
◆ A busy fella: Sneed is also told Rahm will participate in a forum honoring Israeli President Shimon Peres on his 90th birthday and speak on a panel with former Soviet Union President Mikhail Gorbachev and former British Prime Minister Tony Blair about executive leadership.
GOP goop . . .
Pssst! Criss cross: Now that Illinois House Republican Leader Rep. Tom Cross has indicated he will likely run for Illinois attorney general, watch for veteran state legislator Rep. Jim Durkin of Western Springs to toss his hat into the ring to succeed Cross.
Mitt's mate . . .
Yum: Ann Romney, wife of former GOP presidential catastrophe Mitt Romney, is working on a cookbook that includes the folder of recipes the mother of five sons gave to each daughter-in-law when they joined the family.
◆ Translation: It's the project of someone who must have had a lotta time on her hands.
I spy . . .
◆ Trekkie pizza: It may have gone viral when Brit actor Sir Patrick "Star Trek" Stewart announced he'd tasted his first slice of pizza during a visit to New York last week, but it was steak he ordered at Chicago Cut Steakhouse for lunch last Friday. . . Ditto actor David "Friends" Schwimmer Thursday.
◆ Mick & friends: Mick Jagger — in town for a series of concerts at the United Center — dropped by the House of Blues Saturday to celebrate pals Ronnie Wood and Charlie Watts' birthdays before catching local band the Lovehammers in a concert at the same venue.
Sneedlings . . .
Calendar date: Don't miss the Annual Garden Walk and Model Train Display Benefit in North Barrington on June 29, with proceeds benefitting the Harvey M. Silets Memorial Scholarship Fund, which provides scholarships to the Interlochen Arts Camp in Interlochen, Mich. . . Wednesday's birthdays: Mark Wahlberg, 42; Pete Wentz, 34, and Suze Orman, 62.

Williams to supply battery system for Formula E
Jun 14, 2013, 10:56 PM EST
Formula E, the FIA-sanctioned, all-electric racing series that's set to take the green flag in 2014, is set to feature battery systems that will be supplied by Williams.
The group's Advanced Engineering division, which commercializes Formula One-based technologies, will team up with Spark Racing Technology to design and assemble the system for the Formula E machines. Williams team principal Sir Frank Williams felt that it was proper for his team to undertake this project considering the rise of electric vehicles in the industry, and hailed Formula E as a series that would highlight "the growing relevance of technologies originally developed for motorsport to the wider world."
"Energy efficiency is an important issue for Williams and whilst our work in this field is now spanning a number of market sectors beyond racing, motorsport will always be the ultimate proving ground for our technologies," he said in a statement. "Electric vehicles are becoming an increasingly important part of the automotive industry and Formula E is the perfect opportunity for Williams to validate the latest developments in battery technology."
Williams' Advanced Engineering division has developed battery and flywheel energy storage systems in both racing and non-racing environments – from a flywheel hybrid system for Audi's R18 e-tron quattro that won last year's 24 Hours of Le Mans to a flywheel system currently used on London buses.
Formula E is slated to begin in September 2014, with a preliminary schedule currently set at 10 races. One of those races is set to take place in Los Angeles, where fans saw a demonstration of the F-E machine this past April.

SHREVEPORT, La. (AP) - Brown leaves of tropical plants are visible through the windows of the dome conservatory at the R.S. Barnwell Memorial Garden and Art Center along the Red Fiver.
The city closed the center as part of a renovation plan in late 2012.
More than a year later, work hasn't started at Barnwell, which had been a gathering place for artists and horticulturists.
City administrators have been largely mum on why, casting doubt on the center's future.
When Lou Osburn, a former board member and master gardener, speaks of the Barnwell Center, she recalls weddings, pottery classes, painters and the herb garden.
"The energy inside that room was vibrant," she said. Now, Osburn said she hasn't heard anything about the center since it closed.
"It is what it is today - an empty building," she said. "I don't have a clue what they're going to do with it."
Shelly Ragle, director of the Shreveport Public Assembly and Recreation Department, told The Times officials don't want to set a timeline for the renovation project without first establishing guidelines for its future use, including staffing and maintenance.
For now, the focus on how to make the center compliant with the Americans With Disabilities Act, Ragle said.
The $1.5 million in proceeds from a sale of general obligations bonds that had been allocated to make Barnwell ADA-compliant isn't enough to cover all of the work needed there, officials said.
Marilyn Creswell, the center's former manager, said that in addition to design issues, the center needs a new air conditioning system and other repairs.
