Q:Hi! Is Cynthia good for chemically straighned hair? If not, which LUSH product would be the best? Thank you!Asked on 10/23/2014 by joaovictormarinho from Brazil
1 answer
A:The active ingredient in this product that battles fluff and frizz is actually stout, which is a really dark beer. It helps to weigh down the hair strands a bit and prevents them from flying out of control. All the ingredients are listed on our website. Double check with your stylist to see if this product is suitable for chemically straightened hair.Answered on 11/6/2014 by Jeanine from LUSH Direct
Q:So, I have a bottle of Cynthia, and I've noticed that the shampoo looks like it's separated. There appears to be a dense, caramel colored layer on the bottom, and a dark one over it that takes up most of the bottle. Does anyone know if it's supposed to look like this?Asked on 8/27/2013 by Sahara from SLC, UT
2 answers
A:This shampoo can separate occasionally, but a good shake should set it right! If you noticed a change in smell or consistency, or if the expiration date has passed, it's probably best to stop using that bottle!Answered on 9/20/2013 by Brandy from LUSH
A:I've used Cynthia for several years, this is always the case. I just give it a good shake and enjoy!!Answered on 8/27/2013 by Anonymous
Q:My hair has a mind of its own, one side will be wildly curly and the other side will just kind of hang there limply. So I'm curious if this will solve that. Any insight?Asked on 7/2/2013 by spazymcL from El Dorado, CA
1 answer
A:Cynthia Sylvia Stout is delightfully nourishing for the hair, but it is not capable of changing the structure of the follicle, which dictates whether hair will be straight or curly. What it can do is moisturize and smooth out the hair, which may give it a more even appearance!Answered on 10/4/2013 by Brandy from LUSH
Q:I want my hair to smell good, but I want to use a conditioner as well...which Lush conditioner would smell the best when used with this shampoo? Or would I be better off just not using a conditioner at all?Asked on 8/30/2012 by victoria from murray, kentucky
3 answers
A:Our haircare is created specific to the results that you are trying to achieve by using them so we generally do not recommend haircare based on scent. While the product might smell great it may not necessarily be best for your haircare needs. That being said, Veganese is a popular one to pair with Cynthia Sylvia Stout, as they both contain lemon oil and have a slightly lemony scent.Answered on 11/2/2012 by Melissa S from LUSH Direct
A:I like Veganese with CSS, but I find that I don't need a conditioner at all. That is NEVER the case with other shampoos!Answered on 10/11/2012 by Lora from Philadelphia, PA
A:Veganese conditioner is a popular choice, but I frankly can't stand the smell of Veganese, so I use American Cream. The combination of the two is actually quite nice.
Like the LUSH rep said though, pick based on what you want to accomplish with your hair, not the scent. Once you have a goal (e.g. for me it was finding something that would condition and soften without weighing my hair down), THEN you can start to narrow down by scent.
It actually never occurred to me to use CSS by itself.Answered on 3/28/2013 by Eternal from Chicago, IL
Q:Is it good for color treated hairAsked on 8/14/2012 by roxanne from Aurora, colorado
2 answers
A:Cynthia Sylvia Stout has not been tested on colour-treated hair, so we cannot guarantee that it won't fade out your colour at this point, especially since it does contain a bit of lemon. However, many people do use it without experiencing this, so if you are willing to risk it at first, you may very well find that you're one of those people!Answered on 11/1/2012 by Brandy from LUSH
A:My stylist uses Matrix demi-permanent hair color on me in one shade and I have had NO problems with it stripping out the color.Answered on 10/13/2012 by Mermaidista from Fort Walton Beach, FL

President Obama is calling for change just days after a gunman killed 26 people, including 20 children at Sandy Hook Elementary School. The gunman also killed his own mother. The first two funerals for the victims will be held today. Our Josh Robin has more on the president's visit to Newtown, Connecticut.
NEWTOWN, Conn. -- The nation must change. That's what President Obama said after visiting another scene of a mass shooting: Newtown, Connecticut - two days after a gunman killed 27 people, including 20 children.
"We can't tolerate this anymore. These tragedies must end," said President Obama.
Even as he offered the nation's prayers, President Obama had stern words against gun violence.
"Can we say that we're truly doing enough to give all the children of this country, the chance they deserve to live out their lives in happiness, and with purpose. I've been reflecting on this the last few days, and if we're honest with ourselves, the answer is no," said President Obama.
While the President did not offer specific policy changes at the interfaith service, he did say he would engage fellow citizens. He also didn't use the words gun control, but for one moment seemed to refer to those who oppose tighter restrictions.
"Are we prepared to say that such violence visited on our children year after year after year is somehow the price of our freedom?" asked Obama.
Children, whose names the president read, bringing sobs from the auditorium at the local high school, where Newtown had come to mend its bottomless grief.
"It is a defining moment for our town, but it does not define us. We are Newtown - a special and caring place. We are defined by acts of courage, and acts of love," said Patricia Llodra, Newtown, Conn. First Selectwoman
That courage brought applause for the police who responded to the school, while moans of grief sounded as Obama read the names of the teachers slain protecting their students.
"Dawn Hochsprung and Mary Sherlach, Vicky Soto, Lauren Russo, Rachel Devino and Anne Marie Murphy. They responded as we all hope we might respond in such terrifying circumstances - with courage and with love."
Obama started his day at his daughter's dance recital. He says the nation is mourning with Newtown. The response from the nation's lawmakers is still to come.
A leading Democratic Senator says she will introduce new legislation to ban assault weapons. A previous ban expired in 2004.

text: 5 Please let there be a sequalBungy0745 | 18/09/2010 | See all Bungy0745's reviews (20)Have just finished watching this movie on Blu-ray and can not praise it enough, okay it has decided to be a prequal but so what, you can argue all you want but there are several different versions of the story out there and always have been, first of all no one can confirm Robin existed, then different tales have different backgrounds and some didn't even have Marion or Friar Tuck, I for one loved this movie, the picture quality is amazing, if you have seen Gladiator and the much under rated Kingdom of Heaven you will already know that the battle scenes are in good hands, I liked the way Robin or Robert was on his return from the crusades and as was still part of the kings army fighting his way home, I liked the story and felt connected with the characters enough that when the film ended I wished there was a sequal to watch, this film leads upto and finishes at the point the other stories take over. Is this film worth buying YES I loved it and I hope you will also. will be recomending this to my family and friends.

I really like the AGE engine used in the Dragon Age game, but I'm not really fond of the setting more than any other. Now I'm right tickled to hear news of the game finally moving beyond fifth level at some time this summer, but it occurs to me that I will make a point of buying no other game in which needful updates must wait on a third party's approval.
Any chance of putting together a more generic or at least entirely in-house setting and ruleset for the system? Go light or even silly fantasy, just to say it is different, if that is needful. I'd try real hard not to take things from the silly fantasy books and use them in the dark fantasy setting, if that would help the licensing issues any.
Again, I really like the box set and the GM's kit. Great system. Pretty good setting, even though I have no intention of playing the computer game.
Could use the standard three books: Players, GM's and Monsters.
I know it is really not likely till after the whole thing has run its course, but I have to urge it.

This program reveals exciting and controversial military campaigns that have faded from America's past.
IN SEARCH OF HISTORY: FORGOTTEN WARS features the following "forgotten wars":
- A showdown with Britain that began over a pig.
- A war in Korea, but not in 1950 (1871).
- A single U.S. citizen who tries to seize control of Nicaragua.
- And little-known American invasions in Russia, Central America and the Caribbean.
America has fought in countless wars over its more than two centuries of existence enough, in fact, that some of these conflicts have faded from memory. But the stories of these FORGOTTEN WARS are no less compelling than those of the familiar fights that serve as touchstones for American history.
Here, experts like Andrew Birtle of the U.S. Army Historical Center, with the help of period documents, rare photos and footage and the accounts of those who were there, tell of incidents like the Pig War and the 1871 invasion of Korea. Discover what prompted these military actions, and how they were won and lost. Learn incredible stories like that of the lone man who tried to seize control of Nicaragua, and relive one of the most overlooked chapters of the Cold War, when Lyndon Johnson sent troops to the Dominican Republic to prevent a takeover of the island's government by "pro-Castro" forces.
From invasions of foreign lands to actions fought on American soil, these are the remarkable stories of the battles you've probably never heard of.

I am just back from the DoDIIS Conference in Denver where the message was moving military intelligence, if not the entire national Intelligence Community (IC), to an Information Technology (IT) Enterprise (ITE; aka "the cloud") is a mission imperative. I will return to DoDIIS, but first I want to comment on the book "INTEL WARS: The Secret History of the Fight Against Terror" by Matthew Aid and share some thoughts on the current situation in Afghanistan
I read through all 226 pages of "INTEL WARS" looking for the "insider" revelations promised in the February 17th Sunday Washington Post book review as well as the dust cover. What was delivered instead was a rather pedestrian recounting of how the IC has conducted itself in fighting terrorism between 2001 and 2010, mostly in Afghanistan and Pakistan. Disappointingly, Aid offers little in the way of information not already published elsewhere or insights about IC success and failures since 9/11. In other words, unless you have been in rehab and just not able to follow the IC's involvement in the War or Terrorism, "INTEL WARS" has little to offer.
When I first learned of the killing rampage of Staff Sergeant Robert Bales near Kandahar in mid March, my first reaction was, this is the lone act of a "strategic sergeant" changing the course of US policy to train Afghan Security Forces to make Afghanistan into stable nation. I was sure this massacre of Afghan civilians would undermine the sense of trust needed between NATO International Security and Assistance Forces (ISAF) for their Counter Insurgency (CI) and Security Operations mission to have any chance of succeeding by the withdrawal date of 2014. The rash of killings and attacks on ISAF forces by uniformed Afghan Security Forces seemed to have confirmed this view, but then I realized Staff Sergeant Bales' act of wanton killing could not destroy a trust that has never been established. Instead, I would say Bales' act and subsequent Afghani reactions reflect the inability of ISAF to develop a requisite level of trust with either the Afghani population or the Karzai government security forces. If trust is still wanting after 10 years of conflict to achieve moderate levels of political stability and economic prosperity, it is reasonable to question what will change between now and 2014. Without cutting and running, I can no longer see why the withdrawal of American forces from Afghanistan should not be accelerated. In less than 40 years, Afghan fighters have frustrated national security aims of both Soviet and now NATO forces to bring strategic stability to Afghanistan, so there is no case that Afghan Security Forces need to be trained to fight. The issue has always been about what they will they fight for, and regretfully Staff Sergeant Bales' attack indicates to me a dramatic reflection of frustration on a personal level that the ISAF mission has not and will not connect with the Afghan people.
The theme for DoDIIS 2012 was "advancing mission integration [through IT]," which manifested itself through informative presentations about the IC's migration to a cloud environment and the impending roll out the next generation Desktop Environment (DTE). Woven into these presentations and the discussions they generated was the concept that achieving an IC IT Enterprise is critical to both saving significant amounts of money AND enhancing [IC] mission integration internally as well as externally. I share DIA CIO Grant Schneider' s optimism based on the collegial commitment of IC leaders, the maturity of technology, the means for addressing security, and the ability to migrate from legacy network based architectures that the IC is well positioned to develop and deploy an IT Enterprise that is data centric across the IC. All of the DoDIIS DoD speakers acknowledged this, noting that the IC is ahead of the Defense Department on the road to having an effective IT Enterprise that will make data more readily available and useable.
As DoDIIS continued though, it became increasingly clear and more disconcerting to me that the long pole in the tent for deploying an IC IT Enterprise is current IC programmatic and budgetary processes and practices. Using the current bottom up "build it and they will come" approach to funding an IC IT Enterprise it is reasonable for large programs within the National Intelligence Program (NIP) and the Military Intelligence (MIP) to question what their fair share contribution to an IC (or even just a military intelligence) IT Enterprise should be along with understanding what kind of capabilities they should expect for this investment as well as how much influence they will have over the governance of such an enterprise. As was said several times at DoDIIS, "these questions are under active discussion," which means as money gets really tight in FY13 IC seniors with the top cover of the DNI are going to have to become more directive about funding the IC's IT Enterprise if it is going to become the money saving reality it should be.
I am not sure I am perceptive enough to see a demonstrable connection between what I read in "INTEL WAR," the current situation in Afghanistan, and what I experienced at DoDIIS, but I sense that there is or should be one. At a minimum, an IC IT Enterprise should have saved the IC redundant costs associated with various ISR IT programs such as I2P, DI2E, DCGS-F, and various cloud efforts. However, the first thing to recognize is that an IC IT Enterprise will not immediately correct a misalignment in national strategy any more than it would predict an debilitating attack by a friendly rogue soldier or unit. Conversely, we will never know if and how an IC IT Enterprise feeding and being feed by the Afghan Mission Network could have accelerated the take down of Osama bin Laden and perhaps enabled an earlier departure from Afghanistan that would have rendered Matthew Aid's book too short to publish and obviated the need for Sergeant Bales to make his fourth combat deployment since 9/11.
That's what I think; what do you think?
Take IC ITE at face value. Give it time to mature and the baselines time to adjust. Remember the IC works within a federal bureaucracy over which it has no control and only select influence. An important note is that the IC leadership is actively talking about how to bring the IC ITE to fruition. We should all wish them good luck and God speed.
Discussing ITE programatics and budgets is something the IC has to get in place in for ITE to succeed joemaz
Joe Mazz--enjoyed your comments--especially those on Afghanistan. Seems to me the US is looking for a trusted Afghan "national" to partner with--yet there really isn't an Afghan national identity which comes anywhere close to the western concept. I think this reality is being surpressed by well meaning folks who can't imagine we can't succeed at anything we seriously set out to do. Once the US leaves, and Karzai falters, the "Afghan" military and police forces, rife with ethnic and tribal allegiances, will be torn apart and you'll see the kind of internal fighting reminsicent of when the Soviets pulled out... dominated by Taliban elements. I agree with you that the lack of progress over ten years...suggests little can/will be done before 2014--so why waste more lives and treasure?
Rick you right we can't help the Afghan people if they don't trust us and we don't trust them joemaz
Good observations on A. FYI, I helped organize the first DODIIS Conference in 1977-78. Terms have changed , but $ are still a consideration and "things" are still being discussed and will be covered next year.
Phil always great to hear from you. DoDIIS is now quite the event! Three Days 2200 attendees and 300 exhibiting organizations joemaz
As I try to stay relevant, I find this dialogue to be insightful and refreshing. I was in the WTC (first responder) on that day, so just to let you know I appreciate what you are trying to do. Stay the course.
AG,I hope it is obvious that I value the feedback I get from any MAZINT reader, but I am in awe of what first responders do every day so your encouragement really means a lot to me. The nation will never forget the courage of NYC first responders on 9/11
Joe- regret I didn't catch this excellent blog back in April. Seems to me the common thread in the items you weave together is trust. Agree, we have never been, and probably can never become, a trusted partner and ally to current or future Afghanistan regimes. That society, or more precisely all the mini-societies and tribes that comprise that unfortunate little corner of the earth, seems unable to develop even the bare bones levels of internal trust necessary to forge the foundational conditions of a stable nation. The idea that they would invite the major Western superpower in on the deal in anything other than a superficial way, has always been ludicrous in my mind. Likewise, I think anyone who has been watching the IC IT and collaboration kabuki dances for a decade-plus should be able to see that the foundation of the challenge is an interesting and tyranical mix if trust, disparate cultures and, more pragmatically, an acquisition and programmatic system in our government that perpetuates czars and spending/governance feifdoms. Collegial handshakes between the legions of CIOs, Comprollers, CTOs and PEOs/PMWs necessary to execute a true "IC cloud" will simply not get you there from here (as they used to say in Toledo). Unified IT infrastructure and cloud services for anything common or commodity will require fundamental acquisition reform, and it must begin in Congress and be ruthlessly driven from there, not in the Executive. Aloha, Dave
Dave, thank you! Clearly I agree with all your comments and your movtivations for them.
Re the Cloud and the IC, if establishing trust across the community is the necessary condition than the IC should stop wasting time and money on this. Development of and participation in the IC clould must be mandated (as it is in the private sector) but whom for the IC? You suggest the Congress, but the executive branch can play the separations of power game to thwart the will of the Congress even when expressed as appropriation law. I believe OMB needs to be added to the Congress with GAO riding herd on the IC if this is going to happen before cloud technology is over taken by the next new thing joemaz

Associated Press
ANNAPOLIS, Md. (AP) -- Gov. Martin O'Malley has met with the presiding officers of the Legislature to discuss hearings about last week's sweeping federal indictment of 25 people at the Baltimore City Detention Center.
O'Malley met with House Speaker Michael Busch and Senate President Thomas V. Mike Miller on Thursday.
Miller, D-Calvert, says the hearings will involve lawmakers from the House of Delegates and the Senate. Miller says he believes a solution will involve looking at the entire personnel system.
The Senate president also says hearings will be before one of the standing committees of the General Assembly. He mentioned the Legislative Policy Committee as a likely host.
Thirteen female corrections officers were among those charged with plotting to smuggle drugs, cellphones and other contraband.

Victorian Pink: Impressive Silver & Paste Pendant
The pendant was one of the more desirable neck ornaments during the later decades of the 19th century. Often it was worn suspended from a string of pearls, a gold chain or even threaded through a velvet ribbon.
This later Victorian pendant displays the lozenge-shaped design favored somewhat earlier by master jeweler Carlo Giuliano. Quite considerable in size, this impressive three-element articulated jewel is weighty and solidly constructed of silver.
Faceted and square vividly colored pastes of vivid peony pink accent the center and four cardinal points of the pendant as round white pastes are set within silver scrolls encrusted with small dots of white paste. A modified leaf motif wends its way throughout the pastes. Tiny white pastes outline a tear shaped drop that encloses a similarly configured paste gem of pink symmetrically balancing the original paste-set bale.
Measurements: 3-13/16 inches (8.6 cm) in length by 2-3/16 inches (5.5 cm) at the widest. This antique pendant has a weight of 32.1 grams (20.6 dwt).
Hallmarks: Possibly French eagle's head mark on the top bale.
Condition: Very good; a bit of variation to white pastes with some reading golden and a few with a hint of green.
Date & Origin: Circa 1880 and is European in origin, possibly French.
Overall Scale: Very large and long

Dreamy Bamboo Patterned OTKs
We love bamboo for it's soft, yet durable texture and its ease of sustainability, so of course we needed to make a Dreamy sock out of Bamboo. And just to make sure they could easily be distinguished from our other over the knee socks we added a subtle pattern to the knit... all the way down to the toes. Made in the USA
These are about 21" from heel to cuff, unstretched, so they should be OTKs on most people. But if you're tall or have wider calves, they will rest comfortably as knee highs.
Fits US women's shoe size 6-12 and stretches to fit calves up to 18 inches around, with a cuff stretch of about 22 inches.
The Ivory version is also available in sizes for little feet too!
Additional Info: These are sooo comfy and pull up over our knees with ease... keeping them up there isn't so easy, they tend to sneak down to, or just below our knees. If you want then to stay up higher consider adding sock garters or a garter belt from our accessories section.
Fiber Content: 80% bamboo, 18% nylon-spandex, 2% elastic
Machine wash in cool to cold water, tumble dry low or hang to dry.
Label: Dreamer Socks
Are you planning on making a longer version of these?
if i'm 5'5, calves are 16' and cuffs/thigh is 17' will the socks be under the knee or just above?
I'm looking for socks to fit a size 10 shoe. Large foot size not leg?
Got my legwarmers in the mail today and not a moment too soon... With windchill, the temperature has dropped to -42! This means I get to wear tights, socks, and legwarmers all together! Thank you Sock Dreams for keeping my toes warm!

McLaren have confirmed that former Lotus Team Principal Eric Boullier has been appointed as the team's new Racing Director.
Boullier brings extensive experience in single-seater racing to the team after spending time in senior positions at the Nissan World Series and A1 Grand Prix before moving to Formula One with Renault in 2010.
"First of all, I regard this appointment as an honour, a privilege and a wonderful opportunity," Boullier is quoted as saying by the official McLaren Racing website.
"The McLaren Racing workforce and the facilities at the McLaren Technology Centre are world-class, and I'm hugely excited about the prospect of joining such an outstanding team.
"I'm both eager and determined to play an active part, working alongside McLaren Racing's other senior managers and directors, within a new operational structure, to bring about the changes that will deliver success.
"Last, I want to take this opportunity to assure the McLaren Racing workforce that I'm utterly determined to match their famous passion and commitment to win."
McLaren Chairman Ron Dennis believes the Frenchman will fulfill a key role in the restructuring of the team.
"Eric's appointment is an integral part of a senior management restructure within McLaren Racing," Dennis said.
"I've already personally conveyed to the entire workforce of the McLaren Group, which includes McLaren Racing, the values, principles and mindset that I intend us all to adopt, going forward. My intention is that from now on everyone at McLaren Racing will understand their responsibilities and accountabilities, focusing on their specific areas of expertise, in keeping with those values, principles and mindset.
"In due course we'll announce the identity of McLaren Racing's new Chief Executive Officer, who'll report to me, and to whom Eric will report.
"I'm firmly of the belief that, once McLaren Racing's restructured senior management team has been assembled, together we'll begin the march back to full competitiveness, quickly and professionally, harnessing the fantastic depth of talent that exists within our organisation."
Boullier will take up the position with the Woking team on February 3, 2014.

Most people don't think of cooking their food as a bad thing. Chances are, you love baked potatoes, green bean casserole, glazed cooked carrots, and much more. Sure, you're game for the occasional salad and veggie tray with dip, but the thought of switching to a raw foods-only diet sounds pretty radical. What would you eat, exactly? Would your diet be balanced? Would you be getting proper nutrition?
According to Cherie Soria and Dan Ladermann, authors of Raw Food For Dummies®, it might be worth your while to think outside the box (or the skillet). There are a lot more compelling reasons to go raw than you might think!
"All raw foodists have personal stories about how raw foods helped them lose weight, heal, gain more energy or mental clarity, look better, feel better, or achieve some other benefit or goal," says Soria, co-author along with Ladermann of Raw Food For Dummies® ."This diet has even attracted celebrities including Demi Moore, Sting, Madonna, and Woody Harrelson."
If you're totally unfamiliar with the raw food lifestyle, it essentially means that you eat fresh, nutrient-rich plant foods that have not been heat processed. When foods are cooked, many of their nutrients are lost.
"You can go totally raw if you'd like, or you can simply incorporate more raw foods into your existing meal plan to experience the benefits," explains Ladermann.
Ten reasons why raw might be the way to go:
Looking and feeling better. Most people report improved health and general well-being within weeks of switching to a raw food lifestyle. The nutrient-rich raw diet is high in antioxidants, phytochemicals, vitamins, minerals, fiber, and healthy fats (such as omega-3 fatty acids), so it maximizes health and vitality.
Reducing health risks and healing from disease. The facts are indisputable: A raw plant-based diet leads to lower risk of heart disease, cancer, diabetes, high blood pressure, rheumatoid arthritis, and obesity.
Avoiding premature aging and promoting longevity. Many raw foodists look twenty years younger than people of the same age who eat cooked foods. This youthfulness is due in part to the nutrient density of raw foods, which are rich in antioxidants, phytonutrients, and vitamins that protect the body from free radicals, which attack healthy cells.
Achieving an ideal body weight. Many people believe that the body continues to feel hungry until nutrient needs are satisfied. Therefore, even if you eat enough calories to fuel your body, you're still hungry—for nutrients! In this situation, your metabolism slows down, you stop burning fat, and you crave more food.
Increasing energy, vitality, and stamina. When the human body is well nourished, it's healthy and active, and has an abundance of vitality. Fats, especially heat-processed oils, slow you down because they require long periods of digestion, which steals energy from your body. Light foods, such as fruits and vegetables, digest easily and leave you with energy for activity.
Enhancing memory and mental clarity. Your brain needs nourishment, and whole, ripe, raw organic plant foods provide the power you need for strong mental acuity. The essential fats that the brain needs, such as omega-3 fatty acids, are in leafy greens, flaxseed, chia, hemp, and walnuts as well as many other raw plant foods. The human brain also needs plenty of water, magnesium, and organic sodium; whole raw foods offer an abundance of these nutrients.
Reducing colds, flus, and allergies. Most raw foodists find that their diet reduces or even eliminates their respiratory problems, colds, flus, and allergies. A raw diet is especially great for people who are intolerant of dairy, wheat, and soy because raw foods have virtually no hidden ingredients.
Forgetting about cleaning dirty pots and pans. Hallelujah! A raw diet frees you from cooking! And raw food preparation is (for the most part) quick and easy with meals that are a breeze to clean up. No greasy stoves, hot ovens, or fryers.
Demonstrating kindness to animals. Although some raw foodists do consume small amounts of meat and fish, Soria and Ladermann recommend following a raw vegan diet, which includes only plant foods. When all of your recipes are vegan, no animal suffering is involved.
Protecting the environment. A raw lifestyle supports sustainable farming, creation of healthy topsoil, protection of watersheds, and reduction of your carbon footprint. A vegan diet also protects natural resources by not contributing to the deforestation that's inherent in the meat industry.

Asia has a disproportionate share of the world's young, working-age population—which represents the most mobile cohort—with resulting major immigration flows to other regions of the world, and increasing intraregional migration as aging and demographic transitions occur at different levels within Asia. The research here focuses in particular on how the labor-sending countries of the region, notably the Philippines and other Colombo Process countries, manage these migration flows, engage in bilateral and multilateral cooperation with migrant-receiving nations, and engage their diasporas. The recruitment process and regulation of recruitment agencies also represent a strand of the work offered here.
The Migration Information Source's annual Top 10 examines key migration developments of 2014. The Top 10 touches down around the world: from Africa, where the Ebola outbreak prompted quarantines, travel controls, and bans; to Europe, confronting rising humanitarian flows; to the Middle East, where the migrant worker regulation system is under ever sharper attack; and to Asia, where reform to China's hukou system could benefit more than 100 million internal migrants.
Internal migration spurred primarily by employment and marriage helps shape the economic, social, and political life of India's sending and receiving regions. Labor migrants face myriad challenges, including restricted access to basic needs such as identity documentation and social entitlements. This article describes the barriers to integration that labor migrants face, and details the policy environment surrounding their integration challenges.
India receives more remittances than any other country in the world. MPI's Muzaffar Chishti explores the factors responsible for remittance growth in the last 15 years.
Historically a diverse country, Singapore since the 1980s has become a top destination for Asian and Western professionals as well as low-skilled migrants from across the region. Brenda S.A. Yeoh of the National University of Singapore reports.
Social and economic factors are pushing Japan toward a more open immigration policy, while other concerns are prompting the country to adopt stricter immigration controls. Chikako Kashiwazaki of Keio University and Tsuneo Akaha of the Monterey Institute of International Studies provide an overview of Japan's migration issues.
One of the poorest countries in Central Asia and a former Soviet Republic, Tajikistan has dealt with Afghan refugees, experienced outward flows of ethnic Russians since its independence, and seen thousands of ethnic Tajiks leave for temporary employment in Russia. MPI's Aaron Erlich investigates the migration issues facing this understudied country.
In December, about 5,000 Australian youths gathered on one of Sydney's major surf beaches and attacked men described as "Middle Easterners." Christine Inglis of the University of Sydney looks at the violence and the government response, and assesses the integration of Lebanese-Australians.
China and India are major players in international migration. Both countries have very large populations that will continue to grow in the coming years. The available pool of potential migrants from China and India will remain high although population size and density (known as demographic variability) will change from year to year in both countries.
This report looks at the trends and emerging demographics in Asia. From 1960 to 2000, the region experienced a major population boom, however, by 2040, the 15-to-34 age group population will start to shrink.
This pocket guide compiles some of the most credible, accessible, and user-friendly government and non-governmental data sources pertaining to U.S. and international migration. The guide also includes additional links to relevant organizations, programs, research, and deliverables, along with a glossary of frequently used immigration terms.
This brief offers an analysis of the Philippine Overseas Employment Administration, the Philippines' highly successful system of managing the overseas employment of temporary Filipino workers. The report examines the structure and mechanism of the system, identifies key areas of improvement, and offers policy recommendations for addressing existing flaws.
This report provides a global look at circular migration experiences, depicts various governments' attempts at creating circular migration, evaluates the economic costs and benefits of circular migration for sending and receiving countries, identifies components of effective bilateral agreements, and reviews outcomes governments might realistically expect from their circular migration policies.
This brief takes a look at hometown associations (HTAs)—immigrant organizations based on a common hometown—and their often overlooked function as integration intermediaries in their country of destination.
More than half of all the states in the world, countries of immigration as well as emigration, now tolerate some form or element of dual citizenship. This report goes beyond statistical trends to the heart of these changes and how best to think through the policy answers.
This policy brief analyzes the effectiveness of school language policies across 14 immigrant-receiving countries. It examines various methods countries have adopted to help immigrant students gain proficiency in the language of instruction, identifies contexts that seem to elicit positive outcomes, and provides recommendations.

Thrilled about Betsey
This week we asked readers to share their thoughts on Betsey Johnson – and did they ever respond! Take a look at some of their comments.
"I love Betsey's designs because you can always spot them. They are so fun and whimsical! I am excited to support the amazing people who are being honored at the brunch. Their strength and bravery is inspirational."
– Cheryl Parish
"The Voice always throws a fabulous party. Betsey Johnson is a fashion icon. Derby is the perfect time of year to celebrate her accomplishments. I'm thrilled the event is bringing awareness to breast cancer. I'm hoping this community will continue to get behind cancer research."
– J.P. Davis
"I love Betsey Johnson because she is a champion for women in impeccable, funkadelic style."
– Ashley Blevins
"Betsey Johnson is iconic in the fashion world. Her over-the-top style encourages everyone to think outside the box when looking in their closet. Whether it's a wardrobe staple or a sassy accent, if it has a Betsey Johnson label on it, you can bet that it is a statement piece!
"Louisville is lucky to have some famous names and faces come in for the Derby, but we're doubly fortunate this year with Ms. Johnson's appearance at the brunch hosted by Chambord and The Voice-Tribune. Not only is this woman an inspiration in the fashion world, but – as a cancer survivor herself – she's an inspiration to those who have been touched by breast cancer. Come on, she's 68 and she ends all of her fashion shows by doing a cartwheel. Who can't respect and admire that?"
– Lisa Causarano

Prospective students and their families are encouraged to visit the Lesley University campus.
Visiting campus is one of the most important steps in the
college search process! It gives you the chance to look beyond viewbooks
and web sites, to see things first-hand, to talk with students and
faculty - to envision yourself as a college student. Visits to Lesley University are welcome anytime, and especially during the academic year when school is in session.
The list below gives you an idea of some of the available visit options, apart from more formalized open house programs which are held throughout the year.
Please register for your visit in advance by filling out this form. You will have the ability to select multiple options for your visit.
An interview is the perfect opportunity to tell us more about you,
and to ask any and all questions that may help you determine whether
Lesley is the right fit. With the exception of a few holiday periods,
interviews are available Monday through Friday throughout the year. An
interview is not required as part of the application process. Our counselors travel all over the U.S. from September through early
November and would be happy to arrange an appointment (time and schedule
permitting) when they are in your area. You can also skype with a counselor if that's more convenient. Contact the admissions office to schedule some virtual time.
Open Houses are held periodically throughout the school year. They are a great chance to tour campus, connect with admissions counselors and financial aid representatives, and learn more about programs and offerings. Check out a full list of upcoming open houses to see when the next one is scheduled.
One on one portfolio reviews with our admissions staff or faculty are strongly encouraged for anyone applying to the College of Art and Design. It is a great opportunity to receive feedback and recommendations on your work before the submission of your final portfolio. Portfolio reviews are offered Monday through Friday.
Admissions counselors periodically hold information sessions for
students and their families throughout the calendar year. These sessions
strive to provide insight into a broad range of topics and aim to
acquaint participants with Lesley University. After an informal
presentation, prospective students and their families are invited to get
their specific questions answered by an admissions staff member.
Our student tour guides offer campus tours Monday through Friday
throughout the year, with the exception of a few holiday periods, and
most Saturday mornings during the academic year. Walking tours of campus
are about sixty minutes; please wear comfortable shoes. Tour times vary
throughout the year.
Prospective students are welcome to attend classes most weekdays (between October 1 and mid-November; and mid February-mid April)
during the academic year (with the exception of exam periods and
holidays). The widest variety of classes are offered Mondays, Tuesdays
and Wednesdays but you are welcome to visit Thursday or Friday. To
ensure we are able to accommodate you please request your visit at least
two weeks in advance of the date you wish to visit.
We encourage students to take advantage of the opportunity to stay
overnight in one of our residence halls with a current student to
experience Lesley "after hours." We'll also arrange for you to attend a
class or two the following day. Visits are scheduled for one night, and
are available Sunday through Thursday (between October 1 and mid-November; and mid February-mid April)
throughout the academic year (with the exception of exam periods and
holidays). To arrange for an overnight visit, please request your visit
at least two weeks in advance of the date on which you hope to visit.
While visiting, if you would like to meet with a specific member of
the Lesley community, the Undergraduate Office of Admissions would be
happy to schedule an appointment for you. Possibilities include a
faculty member from a particular discipline, member of the athletics
office, or a staff member from the Center for Academic Achievement.
We invite you to see and hear for yourself how Lesley students and faculty are making a difference in the lives of others! Your visits are welcome throughout the year, Monday through Friday and Saturdays (during the academic year), and we encourage you to
personalize your experience.
to request your visit, select your preferred visit date(s) and click
the "submit" button. A member of the Admissions staff will then be in
touch with you by email or phone to discuss the details of your visit.
We're looking forward to meeting you soon!

Celeb Couples Who've Stood the Test of Time
These famous relationships could teach us all a thing or two about staying power.
By Natalie Gontcharova
Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson: 25 Years
Together, the actors have produced not only two children, but more than a dozen movies, including Mamma Mia! and My Big Fat Greek Wedding. (Now that's a fruitful union.) Tom made our hearts melt when, in December, after celebrating their 25-year anniversary, he told Ellen DeGeneres: "I'm not one to suck up to the audience, but the only thing we ever argue about is who loves each other more."

Commit To Caring
The past week has been a flurry of motion and emotion. It's hard to process all that has transpired, but what we already know is that several Southern Indiana and Kentucky communities need our help.
In the coming weeks, media attention on the March 2 outbreak will wane, but if the response to the catastrophe by ordinary people is any indication, the support for the affected towns isn't going anywhere.
Thank you to those who took the time to participate in The Voice-Tribune's March 3 donation drive for Henryville Community Church. Senior Pastor Rich Cheek continues to give us daily updates on how that initial relief effort involving his church has already affected lives.
One little girl was handed a soft, blue blanket from the massive load of supplies and started sobbing when she was told she could keep it. The snuggly throw had been packed into the back of the semi we loaded after being contributed by a young Louisville child.
Two older gentlemen made their way to the church shortly after we'd unloaded all of the trucks and headed back to Louisville. They broke down when handed cash to fill up a gas tank. The money was from a last minute collection the Pleasure Ridge Park basketball team, coaches and parents asked us to present to Pastor Rich.
The stories are endless. They're inspiring, too. They're also evidence that the situation is immense. The only way Kentuckiana will recover is if we commit to helping one another.
Ante Up For Adam
For much of the past week, Adam Underwood has juggled his job as general manager of Wick's Pizza Parlor & Pub in New Albany with coordinating numerous outreach efforts into the devastated areas of Southern Indiana.
Almost immediately after the March 2 tornado outbreak, Wick's and The McMahan Group offered to donate $10,000 of food to the stricken areas nearby, particularly Henryville. Delivery after delivery, the staff – including big-hearted owner Michael Wickliffe – has continued to make good on that promise, feeding hot slices of pizza to volunteers, emergency personnel and those whose lives have been irreversibly changed.
Adam didn't get a chance to visit Henryville until Tuesday afternoon. "There was so much destruction all around you up there. The first thing I thought was I couldn't believe the strength of the people there. I felt if that would have happened to me, I would have just given up, and then you look around and you see people from all walks of life – from the construction workers to the volunteers to the people who live there – pitching in."
The experience, Adam said, " makes you feel human again. It makes you realize it's so simple: You see people in need and you help."
He plans to do just that on Friday night at "Helping Henryville And Beyond," a benefit concert Wick's is hosting at its New Albany location.
On that evening, Adam (who sports a stellar beard) has offered to allow master barber Jay White of Market Street Barbers (owned by Bennie Pollard) to give him a full-on shave – for the right price, that is. He won't shave it for anything less than $300 in donations, which will go to Henryville Community Church, though the consensus among The Voice crew is that his hairy handiwork is worth far, far more, if for no other reasons than his commitment to those in need and his desire to add a bit of levity to what has been a heart-breaking week.
"It just seemed like in the midst of all this craziness and this heartache and everything, it seemed like something fun and lighthearted that I could do that would sort of take the seriousness off the situation while still raising some money," he said.
Sure would love to see people ante up for Adam and what is clearly a worthy cause.

I went to Henryville this past Saturday and the level of caring people showed was incredible, yet not surprising.
We were working on a friend's house and total strangers with equipment would offer to help.
The biggest thing I took note of was the range of emotions the victims went through. I saw one homeowner look absolutely overwhelmed by the magnitude of the damage and by the time were done, he and his wife actually had smiles on their faces.
They still had quite a bit of an ordeal to go through, but when you put it all into perspective, it was the jump start they needed to put them on the road to recovery.

A digital American history program that inspires and prepares high school students for active citizenship.
Inspired minds shape our nation's history
Created by the Colonial Williamsburg Foundation, The Idea of America presents our nation's rich history, from its early beginnings to the 21st century. The program connects students to the inspiring story of how each generation of Americans faces challenges and makes choices that shape our nation's history.
The goal is active, responsible citizenship
The Idea of America is all about the civic mission of social studies education. The program provides the knowledge and skills that students need to fulfill the duties of citizenship in our participatory democracy. Students analyze, debate, and form opinions so that they can help make the decisions that will guide our nation.
Find out about purchase, training, customer support, news and more at www.pearsonschool.com/ideaofamerica.
Engage in a great debate
The Idea of America uses a framework called "The Great Debate"—the idea that Americans are in a constant debate over the proper balance between certain essential values. Students discover the "value tensions" that define and strengthen our republic, study their role in American history, and develop their own opinions on these enduring fundamental issues.
Value Tension
The Great Debate
Unity vs. Diversity
We celebrate our unity as one American nation, but we also cherish our diversity. How do these values sometimes clash?
Private Wealth vs. Common Wealth
Accumulating individual wealth is at the heart of our economy, yet we also contribute to the needs of the community. In what ways do we do both?
Law vs. Ethics
We are a nation of laws, but American heroes have protested or even rebelled against laws that were unethical. When is the right time for protest?
Freedom vs. Equality
Too much freedom for some can threaten equality for all. But the quest for equality can limit individual freedoms. How do we find a balance?
It's your students' turn to get involved
The Idea of America immerses students in a fully digital, interactive learning experience that connects them to history and to other classrooms across the country. The program includes:
- Video and Audio: Video introductions for every case study, video interviews with dozens of historians and eyewitnesses, historical video footage, and full audio support for the narrative.
- Interactivities: Digital games, hands-on projects, and document-based activities using hundreds of primary sources, maps, charts, and images.
- Resource Tools: Online timelines, glossary, biographies, and formative and summative assessment through constructed response and multiple-choice questions.
- Student Community: Students learn by interacting with other classrooms across the nation.
- Current Events: Frequently updated current events directly linked to each case study.
Teaching resources support personalized learning
The Idea of America includes tools to allow you to instruct and support students as they learn at their own pace. Each case study includes the following resources and more:
- Teacher Roadmaps: Lesson plans divided into "Interstate Activities," main activities for all students, and "Side Trips," enrichment activities that allow students to dig deeper into a topic.
- Teacher Notes: Presentation materials, assessment rubrics, and answer keys.
- Learning Management System: Interactive formative and summative assessment, data reporting, and intervention.
- Professional Development: Opportunities provided by Pearson and Colonial Williamsburg.
- Current Events Activities: Every case study includes an activity linked to current events, making history relevant to the students' lives.
- "The Virtual Republic": Teachers can register their classes online to interact with other classrooms around the country, allowing students to debate and share ideas on challenging issues facing the nation.

The Virtual Republic is a free, online resource where young Americans discuss current policy issues and suggest solutions to improve their community and world. It can be used as a companion to Colonial Williamsburg's The Idea of America curriculum or as a stand-alone resource.
- Step 1: Students engage with current events that highlight existing policy.
- Step 2: Students contribute to the class' policy statement known as the "We Believe" statement. After policy statements are posted, students comment on other "We Believe" statements from around the nation as they decide on the best solutions to current issues.
- Step 3: Students are motivated by these discussions to act. The new "Take Action" section provides recommendations for community-action resources.
America: The Pocket Guide
This tiny guide introduces you to a very big idea: The Idea of America.
No matter who you are, where you come from, or what you believe, you are American if you believe in the idea of America.

Proceed with caution – This post was written by my hubby, Ray.
So, it's pretty cold here in the City of Brotherly Love. But our hearts were warmed today by the sense of freedom embodied at Independence Hall…and the warm ale from the tavern didn't hurt either.
Being completely ignorant of Philadelphia's layout – less what we've seen on National Treasure – we were pleasantly surprised to find that the cobblestones of the historic district extend further than just the Liberty Bell. There must be several square miles of historic homes, buildings, shops and restaurants to enjoy. And it's not just inside the borders of the Independence National Historic Park, though that's where you'll find the most recognizables like Independence Hall and the Liberty Bell.
Lesser known pieces of the parchment include Carpenters' Hall where the 1st Continental Congress met in 1774, and where Ben Franklin met with a French spy several times in 1775, marking the beginning of France's involvement in the revolution. Also there's Congress Hall, our capital building from 1790 – 1800, and the 1st and 2nd Banks of the United States.
I have to comment that the guide for the tour of Independence Hall was a great story teller. Very animated and answered every question in great detail. He even had Abraham Lincoln's impromptu speech from February 1861 memorized in its entirety. But he often didn't hear my answers to his history questions. I guess one history know-it-all doesn't like competition!
After the tour, I'm pretty sure I located the movable bricks, where Nicolas Cage found Ben Franklin's magic glasses. But, I can't be sure because the security guard made me climb down off the wall.
One other place not to be missed is City Tavern where you can have an authentic 18th century dining experience on the very spot that George Washington, John Adams and many other founding fathers gathered. It took years to get the research right, but it's an exact replica of the original tavern, down to the window sills and the layout of the dining rooms. Not to mention the food – like duck, venison and Martha Washington's chicken pot pie (which is excellent). And the brew: ale's recreated from Washington, Jefferson and Adams' personal recipes, all delivered by waiters in period garb.
If you get tired of the historical stuff then you're un-American, but you can take a break at a nearby public market called Reading Terminal Market. It's been around since 1893 and has lots of fresh food items and goodies to eat and drink. They even have items from Lancaster County sold by real Amish…I didn't believe it at first either, but apparently they take the train in to the city everyday to "sell their wares." Who knew? I thought they might be actors, but that beard was too shaggy to be fake.
As a side note, you may remember Reading Terminal Market from National Treasure: it's the part where Cage's love interest hides behind the counter of a vendor to escape her pursuers.
Anyway, watch out for friendly Eagles fans stumbling out of bars. One almost ran us over as we walked by on our way to dinner and tried to trade up and get Christine's purse for a cheap set of earrings he'd exchanged for a half roll of electrical tape.

Report: GMC Sierra HD concept coming to Detroit
by Chris Shunk (RSS feed) on Nov 19th, 2010 at 3:59PM
General Motors' heavy-duty truck twins – the GMC Sierra HD and Chevrolet Silverado HD – were reworked for 2011 with the addition of an all-new chassis and an upgraded 6.6-liter Duramax diesel engine. But while the capable trucks' guts were given a transplant, the vehicle's blue-collar exterior and aging interior were left unchanged. With Ford and Ram updating the look and feel of their heavy duty pickups over the past year, we're thinking GM won't stand idly by forever, and we may have a peak at the next Sierra sooner than you think.

Take a look at what Carscoop's managed to dig up. It seems Volkswagen's been busy securing patents for its New Compact Coupe. Do these filings mean Volkswagen is seriously considering the addition of a Jetta Coupe to the lineup? Probably. After all, the coupe concept VW teased us all with last winter looked very production-ready, and it was quite well-received.

If someone has a basal cell skin cancer, are they at risk to get other skin cancer spots or a more serious cancer like melanoma?
Christopher J. Miller, MD, Assistant Professor of Dermatology at the Abramson Cancer Center of the University of Pennsylvania, responds:
Christopher Miller, MD, Dermatologist & Moh's Surgeon at Penn Medicine responds:
Anyone who has had a skin cancer is at higher risk for another type of skin cancer. For example, people who have had a basal cell cancer or squmaous cell cancer at increased risk for melanoma. Even someone with actinic keratoses (a pre-cancer) is at increased risk for melanoma. Since most skin cancers are associated with exposure to ultraviolet light, you can consider having a skin cancer a marker for a history of increased sun exposure and increased risk for the 3 most common skin cancers: basal cell cancer, squamous cell cancer, and melanoma.
This question and answer was part of the OncoLink Brown Bag Chat Series. View the entire Sun Safety Webchat transcript.
Jun 5, 2012 - For patients with basal cell carcinoma (BCC), parental emotional maltreatment combined with a severe life event in the past year correlates with poor immune response to the BCC tumor, according to a study published in the June issue of the Archives of General Psychiatry.

The iPad Air 2 is a nice refinement and finesse of last year's model, with a bevy of tweaks, enhancements, a much faster processor, and the welcome addition of Touch ID. Simply put: it's still the gold standard for tablets.
Impressive Amazon features and an outstanding display make the the Fire HDX 8.9 one of the best and most affordable media consumption tablets.
The Samsung 850 Evo has the best combination of performance and cost, making it the ideal drive for any home users.
One of last year's best, the iPad Mini 3 is still a compelling choice despite the lack of upgrades. However, the nearly identical and significantly cheaper iPad Mini 2 is a smarter buy.
This 23-inch all-in-one is built for entertainment, offering great speakers and a striking look. But the glossy, reflective display throws a wrench in the works.
With the latest version of iOS and an NFC-equipped iPhone, you'll finally be able to pay for transactions with Apple Pay.
Pricing not available
Nokia's phone business belongs to Microsoft now, so it's made an affordable 7.9-inch tablet with Android Lollipop and a high-res screen.
Pricing not available
The HTC Desire 510 doesn't have the specs to excite committed tech fans, but it handles the basics well, has 4G LTE for superfast data speeds, and it doesn't cost the earth.
Affordable, reliable, and easy to use, the XYZprinting Da Vinci 1.0 AiO 3D Printer is great leap toward making 3D printing available to the masses.
The hefty pricing aside, the Samsung SSD 850 Pro is one of the best, if not the best, standard consumer-grade solid-state drives on the market.
