Dr. Howard Murad Hosts The Art of Giving
On October 27, 2011, Dr. Howard Murad, CEO and founder of Murad Inc., will be hosting the annual Art of Giving at the Redondo Beach Performing Arts Center. Dr. Murad's paintings will be auctioned and all proceeds will be donated to the charity of the buyer's choice.
Last year, community leaders, art aficionados and the local community previewed and purchased 30 of Dr. Murad's works of art. The event raised over $25,000 for over 70 local and national charities, such as OneHope Foundation, Susan G. KomenFoundation OC Chapter, Big Brothers and Big Sisters of Los Angeles, Crohn's & Colitis Foundation of America and CEW Foundation Cancer and Careers, amongst others.
Dr Murad explains, "I hope that my work will inspire endless opportunities to create and share joy through art, the people we touch and the good we do for our planet and its people."

Calling All Makeup Artists Talent Showcase and Makeup Competition
YOUR NAME Professional Brands announces the first ever Calling All Makeup Artists talent showcase and makeup competition to be held in New York City on October 3, 2011.
YOUR NAME, a private label cosmetics brand for the salon and spa industry, will sponsor six up-and-coming artists in the opportunity of a lifetime. They will partake in a day-long photography makeup workshop led by renowned makeup artist David Maderich, during which each contestant will be charged with creating an interpretation of YOUR NAME's Spring 2012 collection. Each rendition will be captured by acclaimed photographer Roberto Ligresti and handed over to a panel of beauty industry veterans to evaluate and select one lucky winner. Finally, agency representative Russell Halley will be on hand to offer his tips to each contestant on how they can make sure their book gets noticed.
In addition to receiving invaluable professional education, each contestant will receive a collection of best selling YOUR NAME products, editorial-quality photographs for their portfolio, and the chance to be included in the Spring 2012 YOUR NAME brochure. The winner may also be featured online and in participating industry magazines.
"YOUR NAME has a long-standing commitment to supporting makeup artists in their professional and creative development and with the launch of Calling All Makeup Artists we're adding a exciting new layer to that support," says Brenda Gallagher, Director of Sales. "YOUR NAME is proud to offer makeup artists the chance to learn alongside incredibly successful beauty professionals and to engage in a healthy competition that cultivates creativity and passion in a way that frequently falls to the sidelines in daily business."

The (Newly Widespread) Gift of Spa and Wellness
Spa gift cards are going mainstream this holiday season! Thanks to a partnership announced today between Spa Week Media Group and Incomm, the world's largest distributor of gift cards, major retailers Target, Sam's Club, CVS and Rite Aid will soon carry the exclusive Spa and Wellness Gift Card (pictured) in more than 18,000 locations nationwide.
Target, Sam's Club and Rite Aid will carry the cards in denominations of $25 and $50. At CVS, an exclusive variable load option will allow purchasers to put $25 to $500 on cards. They can be used at more than 4,000 participating spas anytime, not just during Spa Week, and won't ever expire. Card recipients can visit SpaWeek.com and search participating spas by zip code, state or city.
The listing is free for all spa owners who are interested in participating. Just visit Spa Week's website, fill out a contact form and a company representative will get you signed up and listed, usually within 24 hours!
A Partnership to Remember
Though October typically sees the spa industry awash in pink ribbons honoring Breast Cancer Awareness, Sothys will also be reaching out to another segment of the cancer-stricken population: adolescents.
From October 1 through November 14, the skincare company will donate 10% of all sales on products in its Beauty Garden collection to A Prom to Remember, a 501(c)3 charity raising funds to give teenage cancer patients a memorable high school prom experience by providing free formal attire and limousine transportation, and facilitating red carpet-style arrivals.
Sothys' Beauty Garden collection bears ECOCERT certification and includes face and body care products. For more information, visit Sothys.
Working Week
Spa Week, the semiannual marketing push designed to make the spa world accessible to everyone, will take place October 10-16 at hundreds of spas and wellness centers across the continent.
This marks the 15th occurrence of the event, founded in 2004 by industry maven Cheryl Reid, who wished to dispel the notion that spas are only for the rich and famous. During Spa Week—which takes place every spring and fall—participating day, resort and medical spas, as well as other health and fitness businesses, offer a select two or three of their services to guests at just $50 each. Consumers track down these bargains at the Spa Week website, where they can discover which businesses are participating and book affordable services in advance.
Spas that participate can reach new clients and/or introduce unusual treatments to their regular clientele, making Spa Week a popular, win-win venture. For more information on participating, visit spaweek.com.
Consumers Set Their Sites
An eye-opening new report reveals that the spa-going public is making major use of marketing and discount groups to secure a satisfying spa experience.
The 2011 Global Spa Report, conducted by the marketing researchers at Coyle Hospitality Group, surveyed 1,025 well-traveled spa-goers from 34 countries to determine their preferences, habits and priorities. One of the obvious trends: consumers' determination to do their own online research to find the exact spa, service and price they seek.
When queried about their preferred means of getting information about spas, respondents rated "search engines" first, but Groupon came in second at 52%, representing an enormous increase from last year's 22% response, seemingly indicating that economic concerns are still driving consumer behavior.
Rounding out the top five online information sources were SpaFinder, LivingSocial and Facebook. Not surprisingly, the No. 1 reason for using those websites was to "find deals." However, it seems that price isn't the only consideration for web-savvy spa seekers. Cited next was "viewing spa menus," "reading feedback" and "learning more about the spa in general."
Coyle acknowledges that in the spa industry, emotion ultimately drives consumers and continues to affect their decision-making processes. Interestingly, the report noted the public's unchanged, top motivation for booking spa time: relaxation and stress management.

Storm Watch for Spas
Hurricane Irene, late August's Atlantic storm that left extensive flood and wind damage along its path through the Caribbean, the United States East Coast and as far north as Atlantic Canada, left several spa and salon owners with flooded and wind-damaged facilities on their hands, as well as insurance quagmires.
The Professional Beauty Association (PBA) immediately mobilized to aid those beauty and spa professionals in dire need of support. The PBA urges all beauty professionals to make a tax-deductible donation to the PBA | NCA Disaster Relief Fund, a national charity that has been dedicated to helping salons rebuild following natural disasters for more than five decades.
Visit the PBA | NCA Disaster Relief Fund website to learn more about the program or make a donation.
Were you or someone you know affected?
You can apply for aid at the PBA's website.
Club Night
Male performers and special guests at this year's Black Entertainment (BET) Awards in Los Angeles looked especially dapper, thanks in no small part to celebrity makeup artist Julie Socash, who turned to Clubman men's care products to put the finishing touches on some of Hollywood's most famous masculine faces.
Among her go-to solutions were Clubman Moustache Wax, Shave Talc and Club Mend Bump Repair. ("I love how smooth and hydrated my clients' skin feels after using that product," Socash remarked.)
The annual BET Awards, hosted this year by comedian Kevin Hart, honors musical artists, actors and athletes who are deemed most popular and influential among African American and other minority communities. The Clubman men's care product line is distributed by American International Industries (AII).
Prize Panel
OPI Products executive vice president and artistic director Suzi Weiss-Fischmann took her seat at the judges' panel alongside actress Mariel Hemingway, rapper Lil Jon, magician/comedian Penn Jillette and other notables at the 2011 Miss USA Pageant, taped at the Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino in Las Vegas earlier this year.
Weiss-Fischmann, known for pioneering some of her company's most popular and creatively named nail lacquers, helped choose Miss California's Alyssa Campanella as winner. At this printing, OPI planned to release in August four new lacquer shades to coincide with the Miss Universe competition taking place in São Paulo, Brazil, on September 12.

Now that Colorado has legalized marijuana for recreational use, we can expect to see drug warrriors increase their efforts to wage war on
freedom drugs. This headline from Denver reads: "Denver Drug Agent: Our Problems 'Have Exploded' With Pot Legalization.'" The subtitle is especially troubling: "Experts Have New Concerns About Pot & Children."
The story details two examples of pot brownies being given to people. Some explosion. As if pot brownies were non-existent prior to the recent passage of Amendment 64.
Truly, the war on drugs is above all a war on freedom. See my book on that theme here.7:13 am on December 14, 2012 Email Laurence M. Vance

Thank You notes are still remarkable.
Do you take time as a representative of your company to write hand written thank you notes? What warrants a thank you note? Is it worth the time and money to actually buy the stationary, get out a pen, and write something personal? Definitely.
When a personal note comes in the mail, especially at work, it makes the recipient feel special. That alone can make a lasting impression. But when you couple that with a sincere acknowledgment of their kindness or hard work, well that's remarkable.
Here are is a short list of the circumstances that would welcome a thank you note:

Feinstein's "Gun Control" Law Goes For Broke, Treats Gun Owners As Criminals
It is more than likely going nowhere. Senate Majority leader Harry Reid, himself a supporter of 2nd Amendment rights (hey, one good mark for him), may not even bring it up for a vote, instead allowing it to languish in committee. And, if he does bring it up, he may not have the votes. And, if it somehow manages to pass, it'll die in the House. That doesn't matter to DiFi, who's intent on adding massive restrictions to the guns law abiding citizens can own
(NRA) According to a Dec. 27th posting on Sen. Feinstein's website and a draft of the bill obtained by NRA-ILA, the new ban would, among other things, adopt new definitions of "assault weapon" that would affect a much larger variety of firearms, require current owners of such firearms to register them with the federal government under the National Firearms Act, and require forfeiture of the firearms upon the deaths of their current owners. Some of the changes in Feinstein's new bill are as follows:
The legislation would effectively ban any rifle and shotgun with a pistol grip.
It would ban any "semiautomatic, centerfire, or rimfire rifle that has a fixed magazine with the capacity to accept more than 10 rounds," except for tubular-magazine .22s.
It would also ban any handgun that has a fixed magazine that can hold more than 10 rounds.
Every magazine that holds more than 10 rounds must be stamped by the manufacturer. But, it also bans the manufacturing of any magazine that holds more than 10 rounds. Because 10 is safe, and 11 isn't.
scary looking weapon assault rifle must be turned in to The Government upon death of the owner.
And then there is this
Requires owners of existing "assault weapons" to register them with the federal government under the National Firearms Act (NFA). The NFA imposes a $200 tax per firearm, and requires an owner to submit photographs and fingerprints to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (BATFE), to inform the BATFE of the address where the firearm will be kept, and to obtain the BATFE's permission to transport the firearm across state lines.
This treats people who legally purchased their scary looking weapons as criminals, regarding fingerprints and photos. And sure seems to retroactively levy a tax in violation of Article 1, Section 9, Clause 3, ex post facto laws.
No word on whether DiFi will do away with any armed security for herself and her office.

It's been a little while since we've posted and given you all some updates on the Festival. So here we go!
As some of you may know we had our 2012 Summer Rewind in August with about 250 fans in attendance. Everyone had a great time seeing some favorites from the February festival for either the second or very first time.
And of course throughout the Summer and Fall we've been screening film submissions from around the world. There is MUCH to look forward to in February. So far we've received 230 submissions from 21 countries.
We will be announcing our official selections on New Year's Day per tradition. Our screeners have a tough job ahead of them this month as they choose and program roughly 70 films.
Tickets for the Festival will go on sale later this month for those who like to get them early! We'll keep you posted on that.
Also, you may be interested in helping us put on this fantastic event in Sanford by becoming a Sponsor. The benefits are great and spread far and wide to our filmmakers and community.
But in the meantime perhaps you could also do us a small favor and head on over to TheDailyCity.com and vote for us for Best Orlando Film Festival (Section 4, Question 66)!

|DNS.com : The Next Geo-Targeting Solution
|Written by Domainer's Magazine Staff
|Wednesday, 14 July 2010 15:19
Comwired.com was founded in 2008 as a service for domainers to split traffic between parking companies. After already developing a separate solution for domainers to manage their domain name portfolios, and meeting with domain investors at conferences around the world, we recognized that there was an opportunity for domainers to optimize their domains further than any individual parking company was offering by splitting out traffic (according to the origin of the visitor) to the parking company that was best equipped to handle that traffic.
This was particularly important as the industry entered a period when PPC revenues were on the decline and we saw many domainers turning to mini sites and other alternatives to replace or augment their domain parking income.
Comwired Inc. acquired the DNS.com domain in 2010. We have offered a commercial DNS service since the beginning, but in the last two years we have fine-tuned our management software and global infrastructure substantially. With upgrades to security, a modern control panel interface, and a custom anycast DNS network, we were confident enough in the service that we launched it as a true enterprise solution under the DNS.com badge. DNS.com itself has a long history as a destination for DNS services, having been registered all the way back in 1991 – a mere 11 days after Microsoft.com was registered.
Please describe what each of these companies do in general.
Comwired provides geo-targeting solutions for domains and easy traffic splitting between parking companies. Our control panel allows you to select the countries or groups you want to split on a particular domain, then pick from a drop down menu which parking company you want the traffic from each region to go to. All you do is point your nameservers at us instead of the parking company and we handle everything in the background. International traffic can make up a significant portion of a domain's visits, so the ability to properly optimize the landing pages for each region can really give you an advantage over other domainers. The service lets you realize new revenue streams from the same traffic you've always had. We also offer advice for those needing help deciding which parking companies to send international traffic to.
DNS.com specializes in secure, enterprise-level managed DNS hosting. Even if your web hosting provider has the most redundant servers and connectivity, the DNS can be a weak link. All too often websites suffer downtime because a registrar's nameservers are hit by a DDoS attack. This can affect parked domains as well if you are using URL forwarding provided by your registrar. DNS.com eliminates many of the potential points of failure by using our custom developed DNS server on a globally distributed IP anycast network. We back our service with a 99.999% uptime SLA.
What makes you stand out against your competition?
Looking at it from the domainer side, Comwired is the first solution of its kind. The closest service that allows domainers to target traffic based on physical location is RootOrange.com. They offer a related technology that allows one business per city to lease the same generic domain name for all visits that originate from that city. What they are really selling is fractional access to premium domains for
local businesses, and marketing the domains to end users on behalf of domainers, taking their cut of the proceeds. Comwired is unique in that we don't take any commission. We offer a roll-your-own platform
using our patent-pending technology. Set it up how you want, create your own geographic zones for splitting out traffic, whether that's by country, state, city, or another characteristic such as language. With our platform a thousand Root Oranges could be created for different verticals or used by individual portfolio owners.
Similarly, DNS.com stands out from the competition due to the precision of our geographic lookup data. With 99.99% accuracy at the country level and 95% at the city level worldwide, we are miles ahead of the capabilities offered by other managed DNS providers when it comes to geo-targeting. We can identify down to a 10 to 15 mile radius where a visitor is located. This is powerful technology for marketers to target their campaigns at the local level. Geographic targeting has been used in the print industry and direct marketing for ages. It's time for the Internet to play catch up. You've probably seen Google and DoubleClick employ your location in text and banner ads. Now you can use the same technology Google has using DNS, putting you in control. We also offer an API to allow for custom developed integrations, making the possibilities even more exciting.
Who are the people behind DNS.com?

It was here he discovered the untapped potential of domain names, which led to the development of the DNZoom domain management platform and subsequently to the inception of Comwired.
At DNS.com and ComWired.com, Sean sets features, manages utilities, and publicly speaks at trade shows about domain names and Internet software automation. Sean is passionate about traveling the world, investing in his own domain portfolio, and educating others about the domain industry.
Eric Radtke, CMO

development of phpBB.
He places an emphasis on conversion optimization, brand management, market research, and UI patterns and flow to build user-friendly, functional, and effective web applications. Eric loves working with breakthrough products and services to build market share and achieve profitability.
Are any/all of these companies working on any new projects that you would like to share with our readers?
Comwired and DNS.com are sponsoring a collaborative developer community to crowdsource local geo data and enable developers to build and launch their own products or services using our DNS and geo-targeting platform with no up front costs. We are excited about the future of location services and have seen firsthand the successes that can be launched from an open development platform.
What costs are involved in each product to the end user/domainers? (A range from each company if multiple offerings is sufficient. )
Many domainers are skeptical of solutions where you have to pay up front before getting a chance to see the results. Our goal is to make Comwired as affordable as possible to remove this trust barrier. We also offer a free 30 day trial so there is no risk to try it out.
We have many domainers using our platform who have moved their entire portfolios over after seeing the difference in performance after their first month. Pricing ranges from $11.95 to $384.95/month depending on query volume, with no limit on domains. Domainers can get more information and sign up at http://www.comwired.com/accounts/signup/
Posted prices for our enterprise DNS offerings at DNS.com range from $24.95 to $199.95/month. We offer custom quotes beyond 10 million queries a month. Just a few years ago this level of location targeting would run you tens of thousands of dollars a month for a hardware-based solution. We are helping to bring costs down dramatically by offering our services as a hosted solution.
What has your company(s) learned over the years that inspired it to make improvements upon/fix?
By getting in front of domainers and business owners we saw early on the importance location was starting to play on the web. We started building our platform ahead of the current wave of interest in location and our early adpopter users have reaped the benefits from offering customized, targeted landing pages. By using a static solution, too many domainers and businesses are leaving enormous sums of money on the table.
As we developed our enterprise solutions, security was always one of our highest priorities. This focus has in turn caused us to attract a unique kind of security-conscious users. Even now we get tips from users with advice on little areas we can tighten up the service, practices their banks are employing, and options they would like to see.
Our competitors have had a number of high profile cases in which user information was compromised to gain access to DNS accounts and hijack a website's traffic. Situations like this force us to reevaluate whether we are doing all we can to prevent a similar situation from affecting our users, and to make incremental changes to avoid similar disasters.
What's next For the companies?
We are on a path to announce several major partnerships in the web hosting and domain registrar space this summer.
We are stepping up our reseller program and providers are taking notice. We continue to attract enterprise customers, especially in the online retail and advertising industries. We hope that our crowdsourcing efforts and developer outreach will help provide even better location lookup data and spark some creative projects built upon our platform
What would you like our readers to remember above all?
We are very bullish on the future potential of domains and the many roles location plays in the way people interact with the web. The systems we have developed are among the easiest and cost effective ways for business owners to geo-enable their websites and web applications.
If any domainers are still on the fence about the best way of monetizing their porftolios, we invite you to speak with us to work out a plan to optimize your domains.

If you need an extra layer of durability, the Griffin Survivor cases protect well against small drops and minor spills, but those who need a rugged case which can take more of a beating should look elsewhere.
To make up for a lackluster 2014, we're expecting tablets in 2015 to bring it up a notch.
Here are seven things we could see from Apple in the coming year, ranging from services to new, bigger iPads.
The Yoga Tablet 2's unique design can't overshadow its tragically stripped-down UI and irregular performance issues.
The Belkin tablet case provides a firm fit and basic protection, but its design conforms better to midsize tablets than 7-inchers.
The Lenovo Yoga Tablet 2 Pro's design is great for at-home use and the built-in projector is handy for watching video or making presentations, but the UI is too stripped down.
The $150 Key Ingredient Recipe Tablet has a heat-resistant case and text-to-speech tech for a decidedly tidy connected cooking experience.
The Lenovo Yoga Tablet 2 has an excellent ergonomic build, but its performance lacks the same finesse.
A stand out design meets sheepish performance.
The Sony Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact's wealth of power, its skinny, waterproof body and decent screen make it a good option to consider if you're after a portable tablet. Although its screen resolution doesn't put it over its competitors, its ability to play games from your PS4 -- although not perfect yet -- gives it a unique selling point.

Hello Till,
And thanks for giving my situation some attention. The reason for emptying the trash is I was unable to add a co-domain to one of my sites; a message that it was already being used kept appearing. We may have had about four such co-domains in the trash at the time. Additionally, we were seeing entries for deleted co-domains in /etc/postfix/local-host-names file (OS is Ubuntu 9.04). I saw nothing peculiar change in the database other than the "trash-can" co-domains being deleted from the isp_isp_domain table. All custom Apache directives were still in place. I've attached a trimmed version of the log for your inspection. I see no clue why all websites were reset. Let me know if anything else will be helpful.

Family Immigration Services
Our Immigration Attorneys offer experienced and effective legal help in a wide range of family-related immigration and non-immigration matters. For example:
- Spouses, fiancées and children: Our lawyers help foreign nationals who are the fiancée, spouse or child of a U.S. citizen to obtain K visas, which provide entry into the U.S. and work permission, in advance of obtaining permanent residence. We also help foreign nationals who are in the United States on a temporary basis, bring their spouse or children to the U.S. with various non-immigrant visas meant specifically for the children and the spouses of these foreign nationals.
- Parents and siblings: If you have completed the naturalization process and are now a U.S. citizen, you also may petition your parents or siblings to live and work permanently in the United States.
- Hardship waivers: Hardship waivers are complicated and difficult to obtain. However, our attorneys have had significant experience and a high rate of success with I-601 and Section 212 waivers, which provide relief from numerous events which may render a person ineligible, including: visa fraud, medical illness, prior removal, criminal arrest, etc.
- Family sponsorships and unity petitions: The Family Unity Program allows unmarried children and spouses of resident aliens under specific circumstances, to stay in the United States and work through a stay of deportation. This stay is extended until their priority date is reached. Once their priority date is reached, the spouse and children are allowed to adjust to permanent residency.
- Battered spouse (VAWA) petitions: The Violence Against Women Act allows the battered spouses and children of United States citizens or lawful permanent residents to self-petition for lawful permanent residency status.
In addition to these issues, our lawyers also provide legal services for family-related needs involving international adoption, divorce, real estate and estate planning.

Sega Superstars Tennis looked like an innocent enough release. How could a game about Sonic, Ulala and NiGHTS ever risk being banned in Europe? Or so you might think. Welcome to the crazy world of gaming politics, where zombies hug you and you can't mention Virtua Cop.
A few weeks ago, we were talking to one of the developers at Sumo (who made Sega Superstars Tennis), when he pointed out that the House of the Dead stage in the game is named 'Curien's Mansion' because The House of the Dead is banned in Germany.
Likewise with Virtua Cop – it's 'Virtua Squad' in the tennis game (taking the North American name for the shooter). And you don't hit tennis balls at 3D people, just at cardboard cut-outs of people. Lame? Hell yes. But apparently necessary if Sumo wanted to sell the game in Germany.
This kind of pro-active self-censorship may sound absurd to us, but you have to take into account the different laws involved. Germany is notoriously strict on screen violence. For example, German law frowns on any media which:
"...describe cruel or otherwise inhuman acts of violence against human beings in a manner which expresses a glorification or rendering harmless of such acts of violence or which represents the cruel or inhuman aspects of the event in a manner which injures human dignity".
That would be why Mortal Kombats 1, 2 and 3 were all banned in Germany then. Apparently a shout of 'finish him' followed by a beheading or impalement is glorified cruelty. Just for illustrative purposes (and because we'll never get tired of this video), here are over 231 reasons why Mortal Kombat isn't right for the German market.

Masterpiece Mystery!
Poirot: Dead Man's FollySeries Website »
Episode Guide »
David Suchet ("Henry VIII," "The Way We Live Now") returns in his signature role as suave Belgian super sleuth Hercule Poirot in two new mysteries, "The Big Four" and "Dead Man's Folly," based on the novels by Agatha Christie. Whether he's on holiday abroad, taking a countryside break or simply going about his business near his central London home, Poirot finds himself exercising his "little grey cells" by helping police investigate crimes and murders, whether they ask for his help or not. A wealthy financier and his wife stage a grand party at their new summer home. Poirot (David Suchet) is a reluctant guest, urged to attend by his old friend Ariadne Oliver (Zoë Wanamaker), who suspects the "murder hunt" game she is preparing may turn out to be a real murder.

Bernie Ecclestone says one of these days Formula One could be run by a woman, Michael Schumacher could win a grand prix and Sebastian Vettel another World title.
Although the F1 supremo has often said he will remain in charge of Formula One until the day he dies, the 80-year-old could in fact relinquish control in "three to five years." And when he does, it may be to a female.
"Women have always had a strong influence, and have probably been in the background for too long. Isn't there the saying that behind every successful man there is a woman?" Ecclestone told the official F1 website.
'Looks like Red Bull again has the best car and the others have to close a gap before the first race...
Bernie Ecclestone
"I think that women don't get trapped so easily in their own ego. Women don't have to play golf to make deals, they simply have to work harder to get the same acceptance as men. As their egos don't stand in their way they decide things less emotionally and in the end that serves the cause."
Asked whether he could 'imagine women running Formula One racing', he said: "Absolutely. Probably in three to five years."
However, a woman in charge of F1 was not the F1 supremo's only prediction. He also believes seven-time World Champion Schumacher could win a race this season, although concedes that depends on whether Mercedes GP give him a car capable of doing so.
"I have not the slightest doubt about it. If he (Schumacher) has a competitive car, he's a title contender," he said.
"Michael is still very motivated and his physical fitness is as good as in his heyday. When you talk to him you feel with every word and every gesture that he wants to win again - more than anything else. If Mercedes gives him a competitive car, he will win again."
Schumacher, though, will face a tough challenge from Red Bull's drivers as Ecclestone says it "looks like Red Bull again has the best car and the others have to close a gap before the first race."
But should Red Bull's rivals fail to do so, he reckons the title will once again go the way of "very clearly Sebastian!"
As for the reigning World Champ's future in F1, he will one day drive for Ferrari - or so says Bernie.
"At the moment there is no reason why he should have wandering eyes, but one day I do see him with Ferrari. In the life of every successful Formula One driver comes the moment when he wants to sit in a Ferrari."

Patience is vital: It typically takes a year or two before you can harvest and sell your first crop. Rogers estimates 2,000 to 3,000 people start commercial herb-growing businesses every year, but only about 25 percent survive the first 24 months.
To ensure you're not one of those casualties, you need to know something about farming, advises Rogers. "People think because they can grow plants in their backyard, they can [run an herb farm], but farming is totally different," she says.
Some risks--such as bad weather and insect infestations--come with the territory. New growers need to learn everything they can about planting and harvesting techniques, pest control, irrigation systems and more.
Another key to success is planting crops with a ready market. Think long-term: Just because an herb is popular today doesn't mean there will be a buyer for it at harvest time, two years down the line. "Lots of people start putting a crop in the ground because they heard it's a hot-money item, but they have no idea who they're going to sell it to," says Rogers. "You need good marketing techniques, a list of people who are buying medicinal or culinary herbs, and [knowledge of the] prices you can expect to get." You also need to know whether your intended customers want to buy plants, fresh-cut herbs or dried herbs.
To avoid getting stuck with slow-moving inventory, stay informed about herbal trends, line up interested buyers before planting, and be creative in seeking alternative customers if those buyers don't pan out.
Domestic herb growers face fierce competition from imported herbs as well as local farms. "You're competing with people in China, India and other countries where labor is cheap," says Rogers. Competing against low-cost imports starts with planting the right crops. Be aware of which herbs are being imported at unbeatable prices. "Don't try to go head-to-head with a crop you know is coming [into the country] cheap," says Rogers.
If you concentrate on high-quality or organically grown herbs, you'll get a better price from the smaller manufacturers that want those crops. (Big manufacturers tend to buy based on price.) An herb broker can give you tips about what's in demand and the likely price for your crops.
Success takes more than a love of natural living and a green thumb. "There's a romanticized view of herb farming and greenhouse work," says Hartung, "but when people realize they're going to spend 80 percent of their time on their hands and knees, it's a whole different thing." If you enjoy getting your hands dirty and can deal with the uncertainties farming brings, you may have what it takes to grow a prosperous herb farm of your own.

Branca ChairPrice: $1,449.00
Design by Sam Hecht/Industrial Facility, 2010.
Made in Italy by Mattiazzi.
Taking its cue from the intricacy of tree branches, the Branca Chair has elements that turn, twist, meet, and branch off. Designer Sam Hecht says the branches of a tree provided "the critical analogy" for the Branca Chair.
This is a chair whose ingredients are a combination of highly complex parts produced with sophisticated machinery, alongside simple traditional shaping and finishing by hand. Branca's back legs support the seamless joints of the armrest, seat, and back, and are made from a single piece of wood produced robotically. This is made possible with CNC machinery, most notably Mattiazzi's eight Axis Robot. Components are crafted, finished and hand-inspected through every step of manufacturing to ensure that the beauty of the wood shows through its perfectly constructed form.
Select Black Mat Anilin Beech, Chocolate with Natural Ash Seat, Natural Wax Ash, Black Mat Anilin Beech, Green Wax Ash, White Anilin Ash or Black Mat Anilin Ash finish.

Is this company a scam? Cannot find a phone number to talk to anyone, and website will not let you put in a confirmation number, just says I have no recent orders. Very unhappy with Lulu.com!

Carnival Contrivances: A Brief History of the Carousel
Whether running on human, steam, or electrical power, carousel have been delighting summer crowds for more than a century. Take a rotating ride into mechanical history.
By Laura Kiniry
With the onset of the Industrial Revolution, steam power came to the carousel, and the ride jetted into its golden age. Typically, the portable steam engine was mounted to the ride's central pole, and the steam exited out of the carousel's canopy top. A few of these carousels are still around today, including Sydney's Darling Harbour Carousel and the large, two-story carousel at Phantasialand in Brühl, Germany.

Art world cognoscenti often dismiss the work of Miami-based Romero Britto as "commercial fluff," as the New York Times put in a 2007 profile, but there's no doubt he's got a popular following -- particularly among cruise ship fans. So it probably should come as no surprise that Royal Caribbean is turning to the Pop Art-inspired phenomenon to spearhead the art offerings on its newest ship.
Royal Caribbean announced Monday that the 5,400-passenger Allure of the Seas, debuting in December, will be home to the first Britto Concept store at sea, with Britto artwork, posters, giftware and even luggage for sale.
The Britto store will be located in the ship's open-air Central Park neighborhood, and the line also announced it had commissioned a Britto sculpture for the area to sit directly in front of the store. Britto also will be creating a teddy bear for sale exclusively on the ship.
Royal Caribbean also announced Britto -- ranked at No. 144 on artnet.com's latest list of most popular artists -- will be aboard the vessel's inaugural sailing on Dec. 5 to meet fans and host "painting parties."

ALSO ONLINE: A balcony cabin on Oasis for under $1,000 a week?
Royal Caribbean has had a long relationship with Britto that began in 2003 when the artist designed the pool deck for the debut of Mariner of the Seas.
Named in a contest held here at the Cruise Log, Allure of the Seas is a sister ship to Royal Caribbean's nine-month-old Oasis of the Seas -- the world's largest ship. Like Oasis, it will be home to an industry-leading number of eateries, bars and lounges as well as multiple pool areas, rock climbing walls, a zip line, an outdoor "AquaTheater" and other unusual amenities.

I am a documentary photographer / film maker and photography lecturer based in Cambridge, England, and I have recently initiated a project for gypsy youths in England called 'Life Through A Lens'. The project was funded and supported by Ormiston Children and Families Trust and aims to empower gypsy youths by equipping them with the skills necessary to document their lives. The photography produced by the students acts as an alternative to the media's current negative representation of gypsy communities. The photographs also function as a catalyst in engaging academic and creative industries in a lively discourse regarding the ethics of contemporary representations of gypsies and travellers.
I am now collaborating with an excellent documentary photographer and film maker (Artur Conka, who is of Slovakian origin) in order to plan a second project in Slovakia. We wish to initiate this project in Lunik IX, Košice, from where we have recently returned after documenting the Roma community. Some 15,000 Roma reside there in extremely poor living conditions. Yet in spite of this, at the heart of Lunik IX is a thriving nursery and school. The standard of artwork produced by the children at the nursery is exceptional and has been recognised in an international context. We plan to use both the nursery and the school to deliver the project. We believe that the children will be able to access and document their community in a manner that is refreshingly distinctive.
We believe the photographs the Roma youths produce will provide specific audiences and relevant organisations with vital information regarding the issues faced by Roma. We also feel the Roma youths' work will provide a rare insight into the community (this will result in the generation of financial support for Lunik IX). We would like to focus on the issues surrounding health and education in the community and believe these areas could be addressed through the body of work the young people produce. Our ultimate aim will be to generate interest in and financial support for Lunik IX.
The funding we are applying for would therefore cover the costs of compact cameras, printing, publishing and exhibiting expenses, production and promotion of the exhibition as well as our travel costs and the team's minimal daily rate. The funding would support the project in its initial stages; our intention is to create the revenue necessary to feedback into the community at Lunik IX through the exhibition, by collaborating with charities that will endeavour to use the funds to support Lunik IX.
Artur Conka and I have worked together before on the 'Life Through A Lens' project. We are aware of the importance of the roles we will assume as teachers, facilitators and as objective, experienced photographers and film makers to act as advocates within this particular community. We both welcome the opportunity to teach the groups whilst also documenting the youths and the overall project. We intend to constantly work and collaborate with the groups, in order to ensure that the outcome is meaningful to them, that it challenges stereotypes and that it directly addresses their current situation and aspirations for the future of their community.
The emerging body of digital work would be a collaborative project presented online and in an exhibition, accompanied by our documentation, as well as a published book that would include our body of research (text in Slovakian and English). Postcards and prints would be on sale at the venue, with all proceeds going towards the organisation that funds the project.
Information about the team
Artur Conka
Documentary photographer, film maker and photography lecturer. Born in Košice, Lunik IX, in 1990 and of Roma origin.
Ever since I left the community in the early 90s I have longed to return and document the Roma people who live at Lunik IX. I have travelled to Lunik IX on three occasions, most recently in March 2012. While I was there I spent three weeks integrating with the community; my Auntie and her family are still living there. I photographed and filmed my family and other Roma to show the outside world the living conditions of this community. The book and the film are now on tour in the UK (Lunik IX: A Short Documentary by Artur Conka). While I was visiting Košice I was interviewed by the media in relation to coverage of Lunik IX, and in the UK I have been interviewed in national papers and on the radio. The film I produced and the associated book have won an award from the Derby Museum and Art Gallery.
While I was at Lunik IX I observed the breakdown of social structures and youth prospects. There is an overwhelming number of young men and women dependent on alcohol and drugs. I witnessed this first-hand, standing at a bus stop in Lunik IX when a group of youths started fighting about drugs; one of the youths was about 14 years old. Lunik IX has a large unemployment rate; quality of life for these people is extremely poor. The Roma are segregated from society and the rest of the world. Therefore, when reviewing the community and the issues it faces, I feel the most crucial of these is education. I believe that with your financial support, my colleague (Julia) and I can use this project to raise awareness of this issue and others, such as health, drug and alcohol abuse, in order to develop within the young people the confidence and skills they need to escape this poverty and the hopelessness of their situation.
Here are some useful links to my work as well as critical reviews and media coverage of the film.

Julia Johnson
Documentary photographer / film maker/ project founder and photography lecturer.
I have recently founded the 'Life Through A Lens' project for gypsy youths in England. I am interested in collaborating with communities to produce a meaningful, empowered body of work that acts as an agent for positive social influence and change. I regularly exhibit and present my documentary work nationally and have self-published my photography work. I am currently studying for a masters in Photojournalism and Documentary Photography at London College of Communication. I have recently collaborated with Artur Conka; whilst visiting Lunik IX in Slovakia and during the gypsy 'Life Through A Lens' course that I initiated. We believe we will make the ideal team to develop and deliver the proposed project.
