This is a nice medium tones warm brown/nude. I love it. I like to wear nude lip stick or glosses and this is great to pare with them. It's a great MLBB shade. Tawny is closer to my real lip color, this is a little more brown then tawny and not as pink as rock n rose or as brown as latte. (see my comprehensive review where I compare several of the colors)
These are all so smooth, easy to apply. blends wonderfully with whatever gloss or lipstick I put over it. I love the retractable pencil.

ONLY LIPLINER I OWN, YES I LOVE IT THAT MUCH Its just the perfect shade of pink beige. I wear it under every lipstick and lipgloss that I own. Sometimes I just line my lips with it and other times when I want my lipstick or lipgloss to really last I fill in my lips. I will always by this lipliner over and over again just as I have for the past 10 years.
Honey Dip is a gorgeous balanced tawny rose, MLBB shade; no orange or muddy tones at all.
A shade more pigmented than my natural lipcolor (MMM, Penelope Cruz coloring) so it gives that pouty, blushing lips look without screaming color. I've been wearing this one blended out with gloss because the shade is so perfect on it's own.
Smooth application, no sharpener needed, can't beat the price of around $2.00 at Walgreens.
I like everything about this liner. The packaging is great and the texture is nice and smooth. The color works well with my skintone---definitely MLBB (I'm Asian American, NC20). I own Rock n' Rose too, which is a cooler pink, but I like this better on me. Overall, these liners are great. Highly recommend.
I love my Jordana Rock N Rose so I decided to try this. Its a warm neutral honey / peachy shade. Kind of like MAC Spice but not without that ugly ass orange tone. Blends nicely and lasts too. Suprisinly hgh quality here. This is just a really awesome liner and what a sweet price. I think everyone needs Rock N Rose and Honey Dip, a cool neutral and a warm neutral respectively. Will repurchase and try others in the future.
I hadn't worn lipliner in years but I this caught my eye at my local walgreens and I thought I'd give it a try since it's so cheap. I love this product!!! The color is the perfect pinky nude for my NC35ish skintone. No orange like some other nudes. This applies very smoothly and doesn't tug at my lips as I'm applying. It doesn't last too long but I don't mind reapplying. This with my Alba coconut cream balm has become my everyday LOTD. It's a must neutral in everyone's stash.

It's nice to find a truly workable product for less than 2 bucks!! Very natural looking. I like to apply lightly then blend slightly with a clear balm over, perfect anytime look. I think this would work with most complexions. I have also occasionally seen the Jordana line at some dollar stores, so keep your eye out for a great bargin!!

Yay! I wanted Rimmel Tiramisu to be this liner. Whereas that one turned orange on me, this one is lovely. Pinky-beige-nude, goes with everything. Natural, blendable, creamy, long-wearing. A staple. You can't go wrong with 2/$3 at Walgreens. This is just as good as my MAC lipliners, if not better. Highly recommended!
I've tried almost all of the Jordana lip liner colors and I have to say this one is my favorite.
I am a med toned asian woman and I like that this color is natural, yet does show up on my lips as a bit darker and caramelly so that when I top it off with lip gloss, it gives a nice warm tone. I also love that it is retractable so you don't need to carry around a sharpener! This is a great lipliner to carry in your purse or leave at work.
My only complaint is that it doesn't have good staying power. I think it is probably because the product is kind of soft and oily rather than dry like Revlon's colorstay. Colorstay is a superior product but Jordana is SO CHEAP that you get more bang for your buck. I keep Colorstay around for nights out when I don't want to be checking on my lipstick... I use Jordana daily to work when I don't care if it wears off.

text: Mosquito/Malaria Control (32) ----------------------------- I think what Dr. Isaac says has a lot of sense in it. I shall vote for his idea. A multi pronged approach - local herbs, mosquito repellants, spraying and bed nets could be a good combination. The efficacy of which has to be studied in the long term and improvements made or wastages reduced in each area. We tried using mosquito nets in coastal India. The weather is already awful, stuffy and sticky - more inside a net - suffoca- tion; some have a phobia of net!! We use goodnight liquid or mat or worse some burning coil which emits smoke - and make us cough most of the time!!! But these are better than getting malaria!! Can anyone help to prepare a clear and objective action plan without any partisan feelings, except for the true eradication of malaria in urban, semi-urban, rural, etc areas? Thanks in advance to the good Samaritans. Kris Dev mailto:firstname.lastname@example.com

My HG moisturiser! I have combination skin with normal to dry cheeks and oily t-zone. After trying countless moisturisers, Avene Light Hydrating Cream is the only one that works for me. It hydrates my whole face without causing any breakouts. I recommend this moisturiser to anyone with my skin type.

I have combination skin, typical Y zone, dewy, dull dehydrated cheeks but not dry, very sensitive skin and eyes.
Been searching for the right hydrating cream for years. I want one which hydrates, makes my skin look smooth but also firm, don't want a cream to make my skin too soft because I'm trying to prevent anti ageing lol.
Cream appears light, non greasy, however when you apply it, it doesn't absorb quickly into the skin. It leaves a residue on the cheeks, not a sticky one, a thin coat of sort of white and very dry.You cannot put make up over this unless you want to drag the skin and rub hard on.
After many different ways of trying to use this cream, I can only use it on my cheek bones and slightly under the eye. If I use it anywhere else I have break outs, even in places I have never had any before. I can only apply this cream before bedtime so it has hours to absorb into my skin. I wake up with smooth, medium hydrated skin which looks firm. Only been using it a few weeks.
It doesn't cause any irritation to my skin as in sensitive side. Doesn't make my eyes run, itch etc. When I first apply it to my cheek bone area, it sort of tingly or stings. I will finish the tube as for how tiny it is, it's expensive. I won't buy again as I cannot use it all over.
Started to bring me out in spots on my cheeks now, such a shame, as it really does hydrate my skin on my cheeks, so looks like I am on the hunt again.

I think it's a very nice light hydrating lotion. Actually, having seen some negative reviews, I did not expect much, so it exceeded my expectations. So far, after just a couple of uses, I quite like it. My skin is soft and not greasy after using it. Would repurchase.

This is a pretty simple moisturiser. It does all you'd expect a moisturiser to do: hydrate and not clog pores. It doesn't plump, prime, smooth, sooth, rid blemishes or even skin tone but neither does it aggravate skin. I don't use it very often, preferring moisturisers that actually improve the look of your skin, but when I just want to add a bit of hydration, I use this. I can put this on knowing that my skin isn't going be overly oily and my pores aren't going to get clogged, therefore it gets used most often when I'm trying to clear up my skin a little. My ideal moisturiser would have both those properties as well as making my skin appear firmer and more even. Alas, it's difficult to find!
Incidentally, my skin isn't sensitive and I never really have a problem with irritation. A few reviewers have said it irritates their skin so keep that in mind. Also, it's fragranced and, while I love its smell, that might put some people off.
Update: I'm adding an extra star. While the above review still stands, my skin as been playing up lately and I've come to appreciate the certainty I have in knowing this doesn't clog my pores. Sometimes simplicity is exactly what you want in a moisturiser.

A very good oil free moisturizer, gives me a good level of hydration without turning oily. Not so good during winter if the weather is harsh, but this year it hasn't been too bad so far, so this lotion is sufficient. Spf 20 is a good thing for me as I don't like having to wear a separate spf product. I've used this in summer sun and didn't burn.. so good!
Have purchased twice. The price is around 20-24 euros in italian farmacies, which is reasonable, and the quantity is good, as a little goes a long way. Good stuff!
I would recommend to combination/oil skin ladies.

I got this is as a sample and it is the best moisturizer I have ever used.... the very best. I've been trying for the last year to get the pores on my chin to shrink. This product did it within days. My skin is soft, matte and clear. I wish it weren't so expensive, but I guess it's worth it to have such nice skin again.

Although my skin is oily, during cold weather, or when I am tired or travelling, certain areas of my face (around lips, nasal labial area, cheeks) could do with a little extra 'plumping'. I hoped that this cream would be the answer. It is light, moisturising without being greasy, was good under make-up, but unfortunately within a few days broke me out everywhere I used it, normally areas that I do not break out. It also caused irritation on the sensitive skin on my neck. I much prefer Bioderma Hydrobio Legere.

It was good initially , very hydrating . Unfortunately it's frangraced and it causes some allertic reaction on my facial skin. Will not buy it again for sure.

I am currently experiencing super sensitive skin (also oily/combination and prone to breakouts). I have been trying everything in desperation and was hoping this would be the answer. Bottom line is it has made me worse. I then checked the product ingredients and see that it has fragrance - one of the most likely causes of sensitivity!! Even though it claims to be 'hypoallergenic' fragrance, I'm not sure any fragrance can be described as this??
Very disappointed, and also feel a bit duped since their marketing places them fairly and squarely as dealing with sensitive skin. If you do have skin like mine, beware their other products too. The cleansing gel contains parabens and fragrance and the soothing mask fragrance and propylene glycol - all known as potential irritants.

I want to say I looooove this product but i only just like it.
It hydrates and somewhat soothes, but I know there are other products out there that do that little bit more.
I am using Avene's diacneal at night and this in the morning and it just doesnt seem to hydrate enough.

Best Friends
Hello everyone, I'm Maryanne, new kid in town here. Have lurked on and off for a while...okay, 5 years can be considered a while, right? That's how long I've been separated, was just served my summons to appear in divorce court today. I think I'm suppose to mark my calendar to celebrate this in the future, but if anyone was married to the type of man I was married to, you understand that the real fight has just begun. So, I stopped in looking for something to make me laugh (y'all do that to me sometimes) and figured what the heck, now is the time to hitch up garter, be brave, and introduce myself.
Now, on to a more serious matter that has been an itch I can't seem to scratch.... I met a man almost 2 years ago that sparked my interest. He was intelligent, well traveled, could carry on a real conversation, and was a bit different than anyone else that crossed my path in that he didn't pour out his life story or his emotions on me from the start. He marches to his own beat, and I don't think he even has a drummer. I was fascinated by him and, over time, began referring to him as "my bug in a jar". Remember when you were a kid and you'd catch a bug in an old jar and watch them for hours? I know I'm not the only bug catcher still alive, so humour me, please. Anyway, I thought that once I figured out how this bug operated, the fascination would wear off and I'd release him back into his native habitat. But, it didn't wear off and, on occassion, there'd be a little sizzle between us, sort of like touching a 9 volt battery to your tongue or crawling under an electric fence and having it zap you in the butt. You felt it, but afterwards, wondered if you really did feel it as strongly as you thought, or if your mind had it's own illusions of grandeur. I'm attracted to him, and I know he's attracted to me, but it's never been a case of "I've got to have you NOW". Actually, we both make a conscious effort to NOT touch, but there's occassionally that thunder storm type electricity between us that can't be denied. Anyway, the first year passed and my bug kept me fascinated. We would talk every day, he'd stop in at work to see me a few times each week, and we'd have dinner on occassion. We became close friends, he describes our relationship as being a text book study on symbiotic relationships. That pretty well sums it up. I guess I should mention that he's in the military and I work for the government and, if there's anything in this world that can stress a relationship, it's the military. As luck would have it, he was sent to another base (778 miles away to be exact), and I thought "well, that was fun, guess the party's over". But, it wasn't. We continued to talk to each other every day, he came back to visit and conduct business after being gone a month, and when he deployed to South America, we still emailed each other every day, he'd call occassionally, and I'd send the traditional care packages. When he returned, he once again came back here for a week on the premise of conducting business, but we both knew it was because we missed each other and our long talks.
Okay, let's face it, he's my best friend. When I received my summons this morning, he was the one I reached out to for support and comfort. And he was right there to give it. There's still a sizzle between us, but other than giving each other a hug when we see each other, there has been no other intimacy.
At first, I use to think that this was all a figment of my over active imagination. That perhaps, after a 5 year separation, I was craving companionship and the touch of another person and he wasn't interested in anything other than bonding as friends. So, I asked him. That's what friends do, right? His answer was that he wanted to do the right thing this time, he didn't want another short romance that ended in hurt feelings. He wanted to make sure that this would be something of substance that could be sustained through the years. Okay, I understand that (very military talk) and respect it. I don't ever want to get married again, but that doesn't mean I don't want companionship. I am very human.
So, now that almost 2 years have passed and I know he's the best friend I could have ever hoped for, I have to wonder if it would be weird to have an intimate relationship? Where I once could fantasize about the fireworks that would happen with that first kiss, now I wonder if all we'd do is choke on the smoke? Can too much time pass between two people? Is there a magic mark on the timeline of relationships that says that once you pass this point, the fireworks expire? And, if the sizzle can remain between two best friends, what risk do they face? I keep hearing that voice inside my head telling me "why risk screwing up a perfectly good friendship?" and it sounds so cliche. But you know how it is once the seed of doubt is planted. If you don't pluck it while young, not even Roundup will kill it later.
So, what do you think? Any personal experiences you'd like to share? I'd appreciate an education!
Sorry for the length of the post, there's a writer stuck somewhere inside me who screams to get out once in a while!
Maryanne, I truly wish you the best, and hope that things turn out that this is you "knight in shiny armor". Sorry, I don't have personal experience similar to yours to give you advice, but I do have one question: Two years and he is still trying "to do the right thing this time"? I would by now suspect there is something more to this man that you might not want to see clearly.
BTW, you do have a wonderful way of writing!
Heck no, Maryanne - go for it! I lost my soul mate April 17th of last year, to cancer. I would love to have someone I could talk to, who didn't expect anything beyond what I want to give. Does he have any single brothers??? LOL
PS: Welcome to our forum - we are family, and share our worlds with each other. We support each other, admonish each other, keep each other company - we are a real family, so we hope to hear lots of input from you!!! BTW, my name is Jo aka kayjones.
Hi Maryanne!! Welcome to the real world forum. This is definitely the place. Jo hit the nail, I think. Since you've been lurking, you probably know that this bunch - especially the regulars, are truly family here. They may not hear me speak to everything that goes on in my brain, but they sure have helped me through a lot this last few months that I've know them.
RE your question, I can tell you, I'VE GOT THE SAME EXPERIENCE - YUK!! This person has been a very good friend for a very long time. About 3yrs ago, he began calling pretty regularly. Right after that, I went away for a job and lo and behold, he began calling EVERY night!! Now mind you, when he first started calling, it was light conversation, but it began to lean towards an interest in me. We have our "moments" since then, and I began to have some feelings. But when I reacted to them, he would "run". I've told him many times that I didn't want to ruin a perfectly good friendship with his habit of chasing and then running when I responded. He says he's fine with our relationship - he wants me around but he doesn't want to get married. So now, we are truly best friends. He still does the chase thing, but I stay away from anyting else now because I don't want to risk the friendship. It's not as though I'm afraid of losing it, it's just that when he and I began to get closer, we keep telling each other that we were beginning to act like an old married couple (no arguing, it's just that if feels like marriage). We knew so much about each other as friends that it was difficult making the transition. We have the warmth and care/concern, but it's not the hot and heavy romantic stuff that I thought it could be. I can't say I've lost hope or anything like that, but I wonder if the romantic thing is better than what we have now. So, I just let it be - as it is now- which by the way, is great.
OK, I've shared some of my story, but to address your question, I really have to wonder why more hasn't happened already. There does come a time when suppression really doesn't hold out. If he really has romantic feelings, then I'm curious as to how he is able to keep them at bay all this time. I'm not saying this guy doesn't like or want to be with you - not at all. After hearing some of what my friend has said to me, I'm just wondering if your friend is just content as things are between you now. There are a myriad of things that come to mind - some guys just have a hard time leaving a relationship behind. If he hasn't gotten over the bad relationships of the past, he's not going to move forward with yours, other than to have you there to have a trusted female companion. One thing you might try - you make a move and see what happens. Just know that the risk is there, that it might not feel like the high school crush. That could still work well, and be the best romantically involved friendship. That in itself gives you a lot more than what a lot of people have. That will give you the leg up, so to speak when things are not so great all the time. Most don't have that either. But if sparks do fly when you take the plunge, then it's gravy.
Best wishes with your decision. I think it would be worth it to try it and see. If you don't you will always wonder. If it doesn't work out, in the end, you will at least have had a great friend. Nine times out of ten, the friendship part will never go away though. What you don't want to happen though, is that someone else helps him take the plunge before you do. He's seems comfortable with you so I'd try it. You don't have to go hog-wild, but maybe just have a little more forceful discussion.
BTW, the writer thing - you got it, it all sounds good. I know about that too, but if it doesn't sound like it, it's because it's almost 2:00AM!!!
Go for it - we're rootn' for ya!!
It sounds like the start of something good. But I wonder if he thinks of you as only a friend. I would certainly let him know that you're available now and that you're considering dating. Then kick back and see how he responds. If he's feeling the electricity too, you'll know. Good luck now, and you gotta let us know what happens!
Hello, "hello" - my sentiments exactly. It sounds as thougth this guy feels some level of trust and is content with that, even if it is friendship only. That being said, I think we all agree that she should go for it and let us know what happens. We all love a good love story.
Funny, we are talking about the OP's life here which I dare is probably a little risky. But I know we all are betting that life will be good for her with her "friend".
What I might do is send him a funny valentine kind of card, asking if he's really just gonna talk to you forever or whether there's room for anything else there - but again keeping it light, very short and cute - no pressure, nothing else. After all, there may be reasons having nothing to do with you that the friendship has stayed 'friendly' and nothing else, and this would at least give him a way to 'fess up' or whatever.

Some nice steep routes there, huh? |
By Mark Rolofson May 29, 2014 |
You need to take this posting of this website, Chris Harkness. You have done a real disservice to this area's climbers, by posting a crag that you know nothing about its name or routes. I know the cliff & route names, but I am not putting them on this website & nobody that visited here before you did either. I did not establish the 5 (not 15) bolted climbed, but I know who did. It should be up to them to decide when to first publish their climbs, not other climbers. The reason they haven't reported this crag is because the access is very fragile. Secondly, you have done the entire climbing community a great disservice by painting hundreds of ugly blue dots on trees & rocks to mark the trail. Ever heard of a cairn? Now the access is really threatened. I know someone who was told to leave because they were trespassing or their car would be towed. Now pink ribbons tied around trees appear to be survey markers. Most of the trail is on National Forest land, but some of it appears to be on private property. I am assuming you painted these blue dots, because they weren't there in Summer 2013. You seem to want to advertise these crag. No climber I know would stoop so low! I first found my way to the crag with very little info. The best policy here is to keep a low profile! One of the equippers had his tires slashed while bolting. Some of the residents don't like climbers coming to the crag. There are homes 500 ft. away, & an old guy named Tony is very angry. Another couple has expressed concern of bolts damaging the rock but don't mind climbers visiting the crag. Therefore, climbers have refrained from bolting more routes. |

Mark, Since you have not responded to the pm I sent you, I'll post my response here. I don't mean to step on your (or your friends') toes by posting this crag. As a Wondervu local, it's a bit of a drive for me to get to any good climbing, so having this in my backyard has been a wonderful find for me. Needless to say, keeping access to this crag open is very important to me. My intention by posting it is to share this beautiful spot with other locals and to gather information on it. It seems to me that this is the whole point of having a venue like mountainproject. If I felt that this crag or access to it was fragile, I wouldn't have posted it. I spent a year researching the area before posting it and have had the chance to speak with many of the neighbors surrounding the crag who have all seemed friendly toward climbers. I occasionally take groups of kids over there to climb and hike, and one neighbor commented that he was happy to see us over there. Another neighbor welcomed me to cut through their property if I would like. I can't imagine what neighbor of mine would have slashed someone's tires or have been so angry but certainly no one I have come across. Regarding private property: this crag and access to it are in the Roosevelt National Forest. The surrounding neighbors have 1-2 acre lots, none of which abut the trail or crag itself. There are many offshoot trails that lead to private property, which is why a clearly marked trail is important here. The pink flagging you see are survey markers for the Gross Reservoir expansion project. Whether Denver water has intentions of buying this property, I don't know, but until then it is still public land. This is clearly marked at the road and throughout the forest. These are also verifiable facts open to the public on Boulder and Gilpin County's websites: maps.bouldercounty.org/boco/pr... maps.digitaldataservices.com/C... If those responsible for the first few climbs want to keep it from the public, then so be it. Meanwhile, I will be posting information on some of the climbs that I've been finding here. |

It's great to know that there's a true Wondervue local enjoying those routes and getting to know some of the neighbors. As you found through your research, it is on public land and the access is too. We did have trouble some years ago with one of the locals, a guy who seemed to be late 40s or 50s, and he got really bent out of shape, especially when the drill came out. Everyone else was friendly, but the one guy was not a reasonable person to deal with and seemed to have a reputation with the locals. Hopefully he moved away or something. We originally called the crag The Scoop, but I went there first with Will and let him take the lead on the naming etc. The mixed route out the steepest part on the left was done by Matt Samet & seemed to be somewhere mid-5.13. From there, the routes are 12a, 12b or so, 11d, then 12c (The Tossilator - I had to dyno the crux). There may be some other trad or even newer routes. I think the crag has a great ambience in the summer with the late evening sun making it feel like the Maine seacoast or somewhere in the far north. There are other crags in Coal Creek Canyon with tricky access, & it may be good to keep that in mind before posting. I'm a canyon dweller too, Blue Mountain, and will hopefully bump into you up there sometime. |

Thank you for posting some info on the area. I appreciate your contributions to the area and am sorry you've had to deal with a nasty neighbor up here. Some people just don't want to share (what's not even theirs to share in the first place), or feel the need to impose their values on others through reprehensible means. This has been a favorite destination for the family and I, even if we're not climbing. I hope to see you out there sometime. |
By Mark Rolofson Jul 24, 2014 |
Chris's info is very misleading. The crag is only 100-120 ft tall & probably not a half mile long. There are not 15 bolted climbs, only 5 (4 sport & one mixed)! Two routes share the same start to 6th bolt. So there is not enough independent climbs to keep more than 2-3 parties busy. Three parties would be a crowd. This is another reason this post needs to go. Chris has admitted to me now in an email to painting the disgusting blue dots on hundreds of trees & rocks. I believe that is against the Forest Service regulations for defacing public land. It sure compromises a beautiful place. Perhaps he should be fined! I would suggest that if he wants to undo the damage that he paint over his bright blue paint with a color that best matches the trees & rock. Finally, as Chris knows, I did respond to his emails that we exchanged, but I don't think he really gets it. |

Gabby, Cruzer & Honey is a delightful, colorful and even humorous children's book about three animal friends trying to fit in. Read more
Gabby, Cruzer & Honey is a delightful, colorful and even humorous children's book about three animal friends trying to fit in.
About this project
Thank you for checking out my project!
Welcome to a wonderful and vibrant world where three animal friends discover that being themselves, although a little different, is really the best way to be.
This is my FIRST Kickstarter Project and I am very excited about it! The story follows Gabby, Cruzer and Honey, a group of animals who are a little odd. Gabby, the Giraffe, lost several of her spots. Honey, the Hippo, has very large feet. Cruzer, the Crane, try as he might, just can't fly.
In order to get ready for an animal dance, each of them tries to fit in by hiding their differences. They pull together some clothing, string and a few balloons for a series of fun, but slightly unsuccessful, attempts to fit in.
It has been my goal to print this book for over a year! I illustrated it for my Thesis at Montana State University. When I printed it for my thesis show, I had it too large, wooden bound and WAY too expensive for everyday readers to enjoy. Investigating further, I looked into local printers to print a soft cover version. Even printing small orders, the book was too expensive for readers to enjoy.
That's where you come in. If I can sell 110 copies, or raise $1600, I will be able to print a soft cover version of the book at an affordable cost. If I can sell 240 books or raise $3,600, I will be able to upgrade all book orders to hard back!!! No extra charge. Sadly, if I don't reach my goal, "Gabby, Cruzer & Honey" will remain files on my computer as Kickstarter is an all or nothing model.
Thank you for all your support!! This project would not be possible without amazing people like yourself.
For more information about me, this project, or to contact me for questions, check out my website!
What is Kickstarter? This sounds fishy to me....
My mom said the same thing. So I did some research. Kickstarter is one of the main "crowdfunding" websites. It's a platform for ambitious creative people to bring their project to life (such as publishing children's books, producing films, making music and more) through direct financial support of others, called "backers."
Kickstarter has an all or nothing model. Only projects that reach 100% of their funding goal will go through. You can learn more about them here. It's a great website and I hope to see some of your projects on here someday!
Risks and challenges
I am hoping that I have overcome some of the greatest challenges. This project originally started out with an author I met online and a completely different story. Midway through the project, the author got cold feet and backed out. With the help from a whole creative team, I was able to get this project back on track with a new story line and several different characters.
My goal is to get this into your hands by Christmas. Getting the book printed, packaged and shipped in time to beat the holiday rush and arrive in your hands by Dec. 25th will be quite a project! In order to do it, I have already lined up a printer and am just putting the final touches on the files.

Allow Me to Fix Our Education System
Now, I have a sneaking suspicion that what I have done is state the glaringly obvious for people who have been teaching for a long time, and I apologise if that is the case. I'm new to teaching, however, and I'm pretty horrified. It's a job I want to do, I see it as more of a vocation, and I've been told I'm very good at it, 'outstanding', in fact.

Poverty. Riches. The world's largest democracy. An ancient caste system. Bollywood. India is a land of contrasts, a booming new power that remains baffling to outsiders and insiders alike. The Shiva Rules is a year-long GlobalPost series that decodes the many mysteries of India's uneven rise in the 21st century.
To avert a disastrous impending labor shortage, India needs to train 500 million skilled workers by 2022.
The trouble is that India can't afford to rely on supply and demand in the labor market to drive young people into vocational education — that would mean the full impact of the crisis had already hit. That's why NSDC plans to blanket the country with ads designed to put the pride back in blue collar work, said Chenoy.
But it will take more than slogans. The private sector needs to overhaul vocational education, starting with knocking down the artificial wall between academic degrees and skills certifications, said Neeti Sharma, an executive at TeamLease, India's largest staffing company. Currently, there are no community colleges in India, so there's no such thing as a vocational "degree." Moreover, once a student enters the vocational track there's virtually no way for him to get back into the university stream — and vice versa.
That's why TeamLease is working in Gujarat to set up the country's first vocational university. Similarly, Global Talent Track, which has partnered with multinational computer networking firm Cisco Systems Inc. and some 900 colleges across 15 states, recently tied up with the University of Kashmir to train degree students with the job skills that employers are looking for.
"In this country, traditionally, skills and education have always followed two different paths," said Global Talent Track chief executive Uma Ganesh.
Without question, skilled workers get paid more than unskilled ones, and vocational training can mean the difference between work in the unorganized sector — without benefits or job security — and a future with a growing national firm. But even though training firms say their graduates earn 10 to 50 percent more as a result of their training, recruiting isn't easy.
Employers pay more for skills, but so far they haven't started paying extra for workers with training certifications, and students are still reluctant to pay for training outside of "glamor programs" like computer programming and flight attendant schools.
Moreover, the companies and nonprofits that offer vocational education programs say that government-funded programs that are free for students are only partly effective: It helps them get students through the door, but doesn't ensure that they graduate. According to the head of one vocational program, the dropout rate for students on complete scholarships is as high as 70 to 80 percent. It falls to 10 to 20 percent among students paying all or part of the fee themselves.
"Today, the biggest challenge is that industry is not mandating certification," said IndiaSkills' Menon. "So the prospective learners feel that I can always walk into a company and get a job, and even if I'm certified it doesn't create any differential or positioning for me in industry when it comes to pay."
Even young people who are desperate for jobs don't necessarily understand the value of skills training, said Girish Singhania, who started Edubridge Learning to bring rural Indians into the modern job market in 2009.
Recruiters have to be equal parts salesman and social worker to get prospects to enroll. After enrollment, the company has to cajole them to stay on to graduate, encourage them to migrate and take a job at the end of the program, and then coach them on the importance of working hard once they're on a company's roster.
"The most important challenge we face is the mindset of the people living in these areas," Singhania said. "The mindset is just to accept things as they are and not try to change their careers."
To make India an industrial powerhouse, the mindset of the entire country will have to change.

Part 2: Miriam Alonso knows how to put votes together, but she can't seem to separate dirty tricks from politics
By Steven Almond
Miriam Alonso wanted to make the point crystal clear: She was not responsible for the "Miriam Alonso for Mayor" banner that flew overhead during the recent burial of seven Cuban refugees who drowned off the coast of Mexico. She would never be so crass as to exploit the dead. Such skullduggery, she announced at a press conference this past Wednesday, could only be the doing of Steve Clark, her principal rival for mayor in the November 2 election.
"He should raise his campaign out of the sewer," she told the assembled journalists and partisans. Indignant aides held aloft Clark's alleged handiwork: desecrated campaign signs, anti-Alonso bumper stickers, photos purportedly showing a young Miriam posing with Fidel Castro. The most galling artifact, a huge homemade poster branding Alonso a comunista, hung before her, red paint spattered like blood over the offending word. Nor had Clark's nefarious tactics stopped at slander. Alonso implied that his campaign also had vandalized her daughter's home. Two grandchildren, victims of this putative strike, scampered in front of the podium.
As she spoke, Alonso's army of supporters yelled her name in exaltation. Her husband Leonel, who until August 1966 had spent six years in Castro's diplomatic corps, skulked among the crowd, content to be forgotten amid this redbaiting.
But Alonso vowed revenge. She brandished a letter addressed to State Attorney Kathy Rundle, demanding an investigation of Clark's alleged airplane-banner trick. Miriam Alonso a political opportunist? The very idea was an outrage.
Unless, that is, you happened to be present at another press conference held a week earlier. This one, sponsored by the Cuban American National Foundation and convened in a basement room of Coconut Grove's Hermita de la Caridad Church, starred the eight Cubans who had survived the harrowing trip from Cuba to Mexico to Miami. Instant heroes in the exile community, they now faced dozens of reporters itching for firsthand stories of their adventure. With a Catholic Mass slated in less than an hour, and hundreds waiting outside to see them, time was of the essence.
All of which made Alonso's appearance a bit baffling. While Foundation officials were there to recount how they had pushed Mexican and U.S. authorities to accept the refugees, it was not immediately apparent why the commissioner had shown up. As she edged past reporters toward the podium, her purpose became obvious: she wanted to be part of this grand photo opportunity. Even if it meant interrupting the entire proceeding.
Which is just what she did. With chants of impatience rising from the throngs outside, and television cameramen turning to leave, Alonso bustled across the room, proclaiming her need to make an announcement. Much to the consternation of Foundation officials and restless reporters, she commandeered the podium and improvised a speech welcoming the survivors on behalf of the City of Miami. Then she flung her arms around refugee Hilda Perez.
Presumptuous? Perhaps. But what more appropriate way for Miami's newest exiles to meet the woman who would be their mayor?
AWOL from Miriam's Army Jorge cannot give his real name because, he feels sure, he would be fired. Or worse. The last time he was caught fomenting against a leader -- and that was in Cuba more than a decade ago -- he went to prison for six years. That kind of trouble he doesn't need. He has a job with the city. Menial. Low-paying. But a toehold. Enough to cover the cost of his home, a tiny aluminum trailer where five people live in a space meant for two.
So there is reluctance, and a few excuses, before Jorge finally agrees to excavate the remnants of his tour with Miriam's army. "They held weekly meetings where Leonel ordered us volunteers to steal the newspapers with negative things about Miriam," he explains. "We were also supposed to call to the radio talk shows." Jorge reaches into a closet and hands over a satchel of papers. "We were supposed to read these on the air." Atop each sheet is the name of an Alonso enemy; beneath is a series of different scripts to be read on various radio call-in programs. Many are blatantly racist, such as this excerpt from a script aimed at Victor De Yurre: "Everything this man touches ends up in a black neighborhood. I'll grant that for Miller Donkey, but senores, this senor gives more benefits to the blacks than to his own Cuban race. Could it be that he finds Africa so near to his family, or that he likes it?"
In other scripts, Mayor Xavier Suarez is condemned as a spineless skirt-chaser, while City Manager Cesar Odio is accused of "selling his soul to the devil of Fidel" because his sister-in-law is on the board of the Cuban Museum of Arts and Culture, which has exhibited paintings by Cuban artists who remain on the island. The stapled packet contains a typewritten telephone directory of Spanish-language radio stations and a schedule of shows to be called, with "Jorge" scribbled beside three time slots.

Master's Program of Public Health in Community Health Education
MPH Program Mission Statement
The UNCG MPH program prepares community health education practitioners committed to promoting the health of communities.
Why UNCG Public Health?
The Department of Public Health Education has been preparing students since 1973 for leadership roles in communities and health agencies that promote the health of people and our communities. The MPH program in Community Health Education is a 45 credit hour program where students learn to develop and carry out planned health promotion and disease prevention programs with individuals, groups, organizations, and communities.
Our MPH curriculum is accredited by the Council on Education for Public Health (CEPH) and the professional requirements are based on the recommendations of the Joint Commission of the Society of Public Health Education and the American Association for Health Education. Graduates of the program are eligible to sit for the national credentialing exam for the profession and become a Master's Certified Health Education Specialist (to see more of the MCHES credential follow this link - MCHES Responsibilities and Competencies). By the end of the program students will have preparation in the Core Areas of Public Health (biostatistics, epidemiology, environmental health sciences, health administration, and social and behavioral sciences) and in the Seven Areas of Responsibility for Health Education Specialists (assessment, program planning, implementation, evaluation, administration and management, resource, and communication and advocacy).
The program's approach to professional practice includes reflective practice, a theoretical base, network development, leadership development and cooperation and collaboration with community health organizations. Throughout the curriculum, special attention is given to community involvement, effective communication, and uses of technology. Graduates of the program gain the knowledge and skills necessary to promote health and prevent infectious and chronic diseases, injuries, and the consequences of disasters.
The program follows all UNCG policies, including grading, etc., that are addressed in the Graduate Bulletin.
The MPH Program Handbook can be found here.
Careers in Public Health
The MPH degree is widely regarded as the entry-level degree for leadership positions in a variety of community health education settings including local, state, national and international health agencies. With the dynamic changes in the U.S. health care system and an emphasis on prevention, such positions are increasingly available in managed health care organizations. Public health educators develop and carry out planned health promotion and disease prevention activities with individuals, groups, and communities.
Our graduates work in federal agencies such as the National Institutes of Health, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, state agencies, community-based organizations, health departments, hospitals, clinics, universities, research organizations, and managed care organizations.

SANTA FE (AP) - New Mexico plans to study whether to help pay part of the cost of keeping Amtrak's Southwest Chief on its current route.
A state budget signed by Republican Gov. Susana Martinez allocates $50,000 to the Legislative Council Service to study a proposal by Amtrak for New Mexico, Colorado and Kansas to share the costs of maintaining and improving more than 600 miles of track through their states.
John Yaeger of the Legislative Council Service said legal issues will be considered as well as the costs and economic benefits of the proposal. Details of the study are still being worked out.
Amtrak has suggested the three states share maintenance costs with it and Burlington Northern Santa Fe, which owns the track. Each would provide about $4 million annually for a decade.

Performance assessments are done annually, giving the public a rounded view of how their local force is doing across-the-board.
The Police Performance Assessments 2006/07 were published on Tuesday 9th October 2007.
The assessments form part of the Policing Performance Assessment Framework (PPAF) developed by the Home Office and Her Majesty's Inspectorate of Constabulary (new window) (HMIC), with support from the Association of Police Authorities (new window) (APA) and the Association of Chief Police Officers (new window) (ACPO).
They cover the full range of policing activity and are based on a combination of performance data and professional judgement. Assessments are awarded for the performance delivered by a police force (by comparing a force to its peers), and also for direction (by comparing the performance achieved by a force in one year to that achieved by the same force in the previous year).

For over a century and a half Her Majesty's Inspectors of Constabulary (HMIs) have been charged with examining and improving the efficiency of the Police Service in England and Wales, (and latterly Northern Ireland), with the first HMIs appointed under the provisions of the County and Borough Police Act 1856.
Her Majesty's Inspectors of Constabulary are appointed by the Crown on the recommendation of the Home Secretary and report to Her Majesty's Chief Inspector of Constabulary (HMCIC), who is the Home Secretary's principal professional policing adviser. The HMCIC is independent both of the Home Office and of the Police Service.

Arrow 3-1 exhaust - regular or premium gas?
Stock STR only needs regular 87 octane gas. The Arrow 3-1 lowboy exhaust being for offroad/race applications with different ecu mapping, does it now require premium gas? I don't see anything mentioned in the Arrow instructions.

Depends on which map you use. It's not about which exhaust you run, it's about the ignition changes in the map itself. All the available maps have a fuel requirement in the description.

It all depends on the quality of fuel on your bike's individual needs. You always want to run the lowest grade you can without combustion detonation. I've been able to run regular on my Street Triple with the Arrow 3n1, Daytona cams, Daytona full Arrow map. It runs great with regular fuel as long as it's not hot out then I need to run plus or premium.

As others have said, if you are not changing the ignition timing, changing the exhaust places no new requirements on your fuel. I tend to follow the idea MacBandit puts forth, running 87 during the winter and 89 during the summer here in Atlanta.

With my bike I can only use 91 octane . If not the bike is a tad sluggish and the mpg is kinda sh!ty . And when I price it out and compare it to mileage it's pretty spot on relative . 87 octane the bike runs a little off and I get 105 miles for 3 gallons . 91 octane I get 130-140 and she's responsive . I run TORs and a sport map with California sh!t gas from all the additives .

Every bike is different and fuel quality varies station to station and region to region so find what works. I can get 160miles before hitting reserve on regular pump gas with Daytona cams, full system, and map on my Street Triple so as they say your mileage may vary. Run what works. Pay attention to your bike and it will tell you.

Every and I mean every bike is different as much as they look the same. Start with 87... it's the same quality as 93, just different firing properties. Listen to your bike and "she will tell you", to quote our friend! |

This is my absolute favorite body wash. The packaging is very travel friendly in a squeeze tube. It lathers nicely and Is very inexpensive when Ulta has a buy two get two sale. It is the only cruelty free body wash I found that really moisturizes my skin and comes in lots of yummy scents. My current favorite is the vanilla sugar. I would highly recommend all of Ultas body products.

Very Moisturizing and makes your skin feel soft. I got it in Pomegrante apple which didn't smell that great and I got it in Mango Melon which was an amazing smell and I love it.

Corneal diseases
The expression of blood group antigens A and/or B on the cornea was found to correlate directly with the blood group of the patients in all cases. The corneal epithelium of all 18 patients with blood groups A and/or B could be stained with antibodies to bga A and/or B. However, neither bga A nor bga B could be detected in any corneal cells of patients with the blood group O (21 patients). In addition to the epithelium, the stromal keratinocytes as well as the endothelium contained immunohistochemically detectable bga A and/or B in cases of keratitis or keratoconus, but not in stromal and/or endothelial cells of corneas with pseudophakic bullous keratopathy and Fuchs' dystrophy (all patients with the bgs A and/or B). CONCLUSION: These findings show that an up-regulation of bga A and/or B in corneal stromal and endothelial cells is possible in diseased corneas. This phenomenon might play an important role in graft rejection after corneal transplantation. (1)

It'll be a busy Saturday for 5 XU teams, 3 in postseason
November 16, 2012
NEW ORLEANS — For the second consecutive year, there will be five Xavier University of Louisiana teams competing on the Saturday before Thanksgiving. Three teams will compete in NAIA National Championships, with one trying to extend its season.
Both XU basketball teams will play their first homecoming games in the new Convocation Center, which opened to the public two weeks ago and seats 3,937.
The day's schedule:
Women's Basketball
— The Gold Nuggets, 2-0 and ranked 11th in NAIA Division I, will play Westminster
XU will play its first homecoming games in the new Convocation Center.
(Utah), 3-1 and ranked fifth, at noon. It's the first of three consecutive XU games against ranked opponents, and all three will be at home. It's the first time in at least 13 seasons that a top-5 team visits the Nuggets.
Men's Basketball
— The Gold Rush, 5-0 and ranked 19th, will play Wiley, unranked but 4-0, at 2 p.m.. It's the fourth time in five seasons that XU plays the Wildcats in an XU student or alumni homecoming game. The Gold Rush won five of the previous six meetings at XU by four points or less. This is the first XU-Wiley matchup of unbeaten teams since 2007. A victory would make the Rush 6-0 for the fourth time in six seasons. Senior guard Wanto Joseph leads the Rush with 17.4 points per game. Since the start of the 2003-04 season, that's the best average by an XU player in the first five games.
Women's Cross Country
— The Gold Nuggets will compete at nationals for the fourth time in five years. The women will run 5,000 meters at the Fort Vancouver National Historic Site in Vancouver, Wash. Starting time will be 10:30 a.m. PST (12:30 p.m. New Orleans time). Sophomore Zahri Jackson, a two-time Gulf Coast Athletic Conference individual champion, makes no secret of her goal to finish in the top 30 and become the Nuggets' first All-America distance runner. If Jackson reaches her goal, she'll receive her All-America honor in a

Men's Cross Country
— The Gold Rush, led by two-time GCAC champion Matt Pieri and 2011 champion Kwame Jackson (Zahri's brother), also will conclude the season at nationals at the same site as the women. The men's 8,000-meter race will begin at 11:45 a.m. PST (1:45 p.m. New Orleans time). The XU men are at nationals for the fourth time in five seasons.
Women's Volleyball
— The Gold Nuggets (22-7) will play 13th-ranked Georgetown (33-4) at 7:30 p.m. EST (6:30 New Orleans time) at Davis-Reid Alumni Gym in Georgetown, Ky., in an NAIA opening-round match. The winner will advance to the NAIA National Championship Final Site presented by CNOS Nov. 27-Dec. 1 at the Tyson Events Center/Gateway Arena in Sioux City, Iowa.
