(USA TODAY) - The extended online outage of the New York Times highlghts a profound, long-standing security weakness in digital commerce: the pervasive use of a simple username and passwords to access online accounts.
We use single-factor authentication -- a simple username and password -- to gain access to everything from e-mail to financial accounts to network controls. Here's how the Syrian Electronic Army (SEA) took advantage:
The SEA did its homework. They established that the New York Times purchased its domain name, www.nytimes.com, from Verisign, and that Verisign subsequently delegated control of Internet traffic going to the Times' website to a registrar, Melbourne IT. Melbourne IT then delegated that same control to numerous Internet Service Providers, including an ISP in India. This chain of trust on which the Domain Name System, or DNS, stands is completely routine.
The SEA focused on the weakeast link, executing a spear phishing attack that successfully obtained the user name and password of at least one administrator at the Indian ISP, says Bill Conner CEO of identity management firm Entrust.
With that foothold in the ISP, the hackers moved up the DNS trust chain. They were next able to manipulate www.nytimes.com, redirecting traffic at Melbourne IT, so that anyone trying to reach the legit website got directed to a bogus site.
"Imagine an attack where I walk in to the office where the telephone records are kept, and I fraudulently rewrite all the numbers associated with the New York Times. In the physical world, this attack wouldn't be practical," says Mike Lloyd chief technical officer at security firm Red Seal Networks. "In the online world, this same attack is much more practical, and quite hard to prevent."
Entrust CEO Conner says it's clear to the cybersecurity community that a spear phishing attack was used to obtain the username and password to the account of an administrator at the Indian ISP. What's not clear at the moment is if that same username and password enabled the SEA hackers deep access into Melbourne IT.
"It's very possible that username and password goes all the way up through the registrar, and that's what people are sorting through right now," says Conner.
Wade Williamson, senior security analyst, firewall company Palo Alto Networks, says that what's happening is that the SEA is going further down the trust chain.
"Instead of hitting NYT directly, they are hitting them at the DNS level. These types of attacks have been seen in the past, where instead of defacing a website, the attackers route the victim's traffic to the attacker's site," says Williamson.
What the SEA is doing is not high-level hacking. The attackers simply took as much advantage as they could from the fact that obtaining a username and password can be done by simple trickery. And figuring out how far that can take you is merely a matter of diligence.
"In this scenario, it was apparently a partner for Melbourne IT that was compromised," says Williamson. "Low-tech in concept, but obviously effective."

Hi LI crowd! How do you feel about a small window or link added to the front page here with a list/schedule of live DJ's and other live events? I know its hard, and I don't mean to put pressure on the staff and volunteers. Just thinking.

And yes, I know you have one for St. Paddy's day. I enjoy the studio chat with everyone when we have a live DJ. And that is more what I was gettin at.
Thanks Daithi, I kinda knew it would be hard at best, but I so enjoy all the nice people on the chat when we have live DJ's. So far the Facebook and other announcements are working well. I wonder if anyone has any ideas to boost the participation in the live chat? Or should I just shut up?! LOL
That would be a WONDERFUL idea !!

It ain't easy because he lives in the wretched frontier town of Grimy Gulch which is populated by bizarre characters, including cowboys, eccentric Indians, marriage bent ladies, soldiers from the near-by fort, and melodramatic villains ready to stir up trouble for poor Tumbleweeds, who simply longs to improve his town.

New Media News Bytes by Keith DuBay
New Media Bytes April 2012 -Death of print publishing – Reading off of tablets seemed pretty efficient when you saw Captain Jon Luc Picard do it on Star Trek, Next Generation. We are getting much closer to that. Magazine ad pages fell 8.2% in the first quarter year-over-year, according to new figures from the Publishers Information Bureau. Declines were led by auto, food and retail sectors. It has long been hoped by print publishers that they will regain advertising as the economy recovers, but I disagree. The publishing industry signed its own death warrant when it started giving away its digital content and it conditioned its audience – particularly younger readers – to expect free content.
In Colorado, I believe that we will witness the death of two general audience print publications within the next five years. ColoradoBiz, an important magazine for its statewide audience and a publication I used to work at, is not receiving the ad support from the business community and can't survive in print. And have you noticed that the business and metro sections are now included in the front section of The Denver Post? The paper shrinks by the day. It's out of bankruptcy but you can look at the paucity of ad pages to realize where the last general audience newspaper is headed: Out of business. Names that come to mind who have been laid off in the industry: Business columnist Penny Parker, about town columnist Bill Husted, city columnist Bill Johnson, political commentator Mike Litwin, all from the Post. Mike Cote left ColoradoBiz. I'll continue to speculate about where the media and news business is headed. Look here in the future for that.
March 2012-It's obvious to say that mobile applications are the new dominant form of media and they will only continue to be more so as their utility increases. A couple weeks ago a bunch of us went on a golf trip to New Mexico and one of us had an advanced phone with all the Internet browsing capabilities, which allowed us to check the temperature, wind speed, course booking, navigation and on and on from our rental van. So advertisers are trying to figure out how to make a buck off of mobile. Don't do what publishers did, this writer suggests. "Yet demand for mobile advertising from premium brands is not keeping up with increased utilization of mobile websites and applications. As a result, many publishers are being tempted to turn their inventory over to mobile advertising networks for monetization." Don't do it, he says. Third-party resellers basically destroy the ability of publishers to monetize their audiences.
Watch out cable-The six largest cable and satellite TV providers lost a combined 580,000 customers during the second quarter of last year, the biggest decline in history, Bloomberg says. The trend is continuing. The economy is forcing the industry to face the reality of cord-cutting-pay-TV customers canceling their subscriptions in favor of online options such as Netflix and Hulu.
And finally, kudos to my client, CRG Partners, who were awarded the turnaround management of the New York Mets. I had a lot of fun working with them on articles about Pilgrim's Pride and the sale of the Texas Rangers and hope I'll get to dive into that juicy subject at some point, though it's all hush-hush now for the financially strapped team.
January 2012 -Denver Bronco quarterback Tim Tebow is worth his weight in publicity, well, a little more, maybe $10 million a year, one marketing exec said. Tebow is in the Trendsetter Top 85 world list of celebrities. The Steelers-Broncos game was the highest rated first-round NFL playoff game in 24 years. Tebow mentions set a peak rate record of 9,420 tweets per second on Twitter. Cha-Ching! Something tells me that the kid can get a date.
In March, the formerly staid magazine Ladies Home Journal will turn over a good deal of its pages to what it calls readers. This move is being heralded by magazine executives as a New Media sea change, where the readers write the content for the 3.2 million paid subscribers. My view is that this is not a crowd-sourcing model. The mag will not only edit and fact-check the content submissions, but will also pay contributors its going freelance rate. So essentially Ladies Home Journal is going to use more freelance writer material – it's a smart way to go – because although some abject rookies will make it through the screens, freelance pros will end up toting the luggage.
October 2011-Talk about in your face. New York University professor Scott Galloway told an audience at the American Magazine Publisher's conference that their industry was facing a double-dip recession because their traditional advertisers were connecting directly to their customers through Facebook. His evidence? Burberry today has more than 8.6 million likes on Facebook, while Gucci has nearly 5.4 million, Chanel has almost 4.6 million and Ralph Lauren has more than 4 million. Vogue has nearly 1.7 million, by comparison, while Cosmopolitan has less than 1.2 million.
In case you hadn't noticed before, Google wants to own your online identity. This is more than Big Brother; this is trying to get inside your noodle. The search giant takes a hard line on anonymous names because it sees Google+, its social networking site, as an "identity service" or platform on which it can build other products, Business Week reports. Talk about creepy. I can see this backfiring on Google.
September 2011 -Ad Age says that iCrossing, the No. 1 agency by U.S. search revenue with $92.4 million in 2010, is making a push toward producing branded videos, blogs and other content for clients. Some other agencies are following suit. This is a push towards content marketing. I hope that's good news for writers. The agency plans to tap into parent company Hearst Corp.'s "vast network of freelancers." iCrossing's blog contains some good pieces, such as "Why chief marketing officers need content marketing."
Good news from PitchBook News, a company that tracks private equity investments, recorded 52 investments in 2010 and 37 so far this year in B2B media and information companies. That's compared to a low of 27 investments in 2009. It is considered a bullish sign because corporate wallets are loosening for marketing and similar business development activities.
I don't always place a lot of confidence in Forrester Research because they were a driving force behind the Dot Bomb crash of 2001. Here's their latest: The firm is predicting that U.S. interactive marketing spending will reach $76.6 billion by 2016, equal to TV spending this year and comprising 35% of all advertising. That's a big jump considering that this year interactive will comprise 19% of all spending, according to Forrester. Mobile advertising is taking a big jump and will be a main component of the mix soon.
August 2011 - Author Scott Donaton says that marketers "have an unprecedented opportunity to move upstream in the content development business." He says forget product placement, brand integration, advertainment and every other buzzword. Trust me, this is pretty vague writing, but essentially what he means is that brands need to combine creativity with the art of story-telling to deliver meaningful insights to their audiences. This will create a lasting bond between brand and customer, he argues.
Back to good ol' advertising. L'Oreal, the cosmetics maker, got busted for over-air-brushing Lancome ads featuring model Christy Turlington and actress Julia Roberts. The United Kingdom watchdog agency, the Advertising Standards Authority, banned the ads from the UK for being "misleading" and an "exaggeration." You mean those women don't really look that good?

Twins deal Wilson Ramos in package for Washington closer Matt Capps
Get the 1500 ESPN SportsWire delivered to your inbox daily, and keep up with all the news in Twin Cities Sports
The Minnesota Twins have been working hard the past week to shore up their bullpen.
They made one significant move on Thursday to do it.
A source said -- and the team confirmed shortly after -- it has acquired closer Matt Capps from the Washington Nationals for top catching prospect Wilson Ramos and left-hander Joe Testa.
Capps, 26, has converted 26 saves in 30 opportunities this season, compiling a 2.74 earned-run average with nine walks and 38 strikes. He likely will replace Jon Rauch in the closer role immediately for the Twins, who were off Thursday and open a three-game series against Seattle on Friday.
It became apparent earlier this week the Twins had targeted a bullpen upgrade when they began following the Toronto Blue Jays. But they ended up paying a hefty price for Capps, who is due the remainder of his $3.5 million salary this season and is under team control for one more year.

National Museum
Your list of essential Bangkok sightseeing places should include this remarkable museum. Housing the largest collection of Thai artefacts and art, National Museum Bangkok is located in the former grounds of Wang Na Palace which is the former palace of the vice king. Frequented by many travellers visiting Bangkok sightseeing places, the museum is currently under the ownership of Department of Fine Arts.
Gifts of kings
Established by King Rama V in 1874 as a public museum exhibiting the gifts and antiques bestowed on him by King Rama IV, the museum presents collections consistent with Thailand's history, including armaments, palanquins and clothing.
You can also look into the prehistory of Thailand at the "Gallery of Thai History", going on a journey through the ancient kingdoms which ultimately leads to the modern Thai kingdom. Among the numerous collections in the decorative arts and ethnological collection are Khon masks, ceramics, precious stones, puppets, gold treasures, Chinese weapons, textiles and clothing as well as traditional musical instruments from Southeast Asian nations and woodcarving.
Global recognition
You should also not the special inscription on UNESCO's Memory of the World Programme Register, recognising the museum's worldwide significance.
The funeral chariot hall is an outstanding feature of the museum housing a selection of unique carriages utilised for royal cremations. The impressive models of Thai architecture such as the Buddhaisawan chapel, several charming pavilions and the "Red House" complete the museum's attractions.

Color Control Cream: What's a CC Cream? The Next Generation of the BB Cream
BB Creams are trending in the US at the moment and you'll probably see more come the Fall I imagine. So far Smashbox, MAC, and Boscia have introduced BB Creams stateside with a special appearance by Korean brand name, Dr. Jart exclusively at Sephora.
BB Creams have been toned down a bit for the US market but the concept remains the same in some aspects. A creamy base product to flatter many skin tones that offers sun protection and a flawless finish that evens out skin tone. Whitening benefits, pigmentation, and some anti-aging benefits are missing from US versions but hopefully we catch up sometime soon to our Asian friends in this market.
Now that BB Creams are on the rise here what comes next?
That would be CC Creams or Color Control Creams. What's a CC Cream? It's the next generation BB Cream.
CC cream is simply an improved version of a BB Cream. It offers pretty much the same benefits as a BB Cream including whitening, moisturizing, sun protection, and skin repair.
Where as BB Creams offer all these same options CC Creams promise a lighter texture with a non-oily formula (and in some cases a matte finish) plus some will have Vitamin C for better brightening and whitening abilities. CC Creams promise to have a lighter texture with more nourishing ingredients offering a beefed up formula with the ability to repair problem skin better than BB Creams.
CC Creams will contain White tea extracts, Green Tea Leaf Extracts, Hyaluronic Acid, Mineral Powder, Macadamia Extracts, Deep Sea Water, Aloe leaf Extracts, and Natural Vitamin E.
So it basically provides sun protection, hydration, agents to help soothe and calm skin, anti-aging elements, plus a long lasting formula.
I haven't personally played with any CC Creams yet and the first ones I've seen were from a Chinese company, iFiona so they haven't quite hit the Korean market from my understanding.
They pretty much sound like a gloried BB Cream but I think the oil-free formula and the promises of a lighter formula that brightens and looks more natural does sound appealing. The price remains fairly cheap as well.
I look forward to discovering and learning more about CC Creams in the future and will be bringing you a review shortly of CC Creams.
Have you heard about CC Creams?
Do share!

when will dd creams come out?
6/8/11 13:36 electronicfly:
*jaw drops* CC? That's it. I'm gonna go copyright the term AA Cream (Absolutely Awesome Cream) now.
CC Cream does sound like quite a dream to me though, as with my oily skin I tend to stay away from BB creams.

Works great for dry to oily skin, sensitive skin, fills pores and wrinkles, great coverage, one shade REALLY fits all, SPF 1904749174092174019741, PA++++++, organic, no alcohol, parabens or silicones, no animal testing, great primer, great foundation, great concealer, super cute and usable packaging, no wastage, sold worldwide, super cheap…. what else would describe our AA Team Cream? LOL!
6/8/11 14:35 electronicfly:
hahahahha good one 😀
6/8/11 20:01 mon:
it also contains fairy dust and unicorn tears, since anything related to unicorns can perform miracles
1/12/12 23:44 eve:
diggin your AA Cream suggestion. well, you gotta make sure people aren't going to confuse it with another popular club. 😉
have you tried boscia's bb cream? it's oil-free! my friend has oily skin, and she swears by it. good stuff.
6/8/11 13:44 Anna:
It kinda sounds too good to be true, doesn't it? I suppose that's part of why it only works for one exact skin tone ><
6/8/11 14:08 izzy:
I could bet $100 it's the same thing. What an awful marketing ploy. "hey, let's make the exact same thing and say it's BETTER to make money since we're a little late on the BB cream bandwagon."
6/8/11 14:10 Maggie:
Oh man, I wanna try! BB cream can be a bit heavy on my acne-prone, combo skin. So non-oily and lighter sounds good. Although I don't really trust Chinese products.
6/8/11 14:29 sillylilacs:
CC? Such creativity *facepalms*
But seriously though…that's a LOT of promises O_o I'm definitely interested in seeing if this glorified BB cream can carry its promises.
Took a quick look on Ebay, and I only see the blue one on there. O.o (granted i'm not interested in the other three LOL) Think I might pick one up for review….
6/8/11 14:39 sillylilacs:
Here's some more info, I know it's in Chinese, but there are some before and after photos that might help.
Apparently the CC cream has been on the market for some time since the post was back in 2010, annnnd there's a fake CC cream too? >_<
6/8/11 14:56 sillylilacs:
I lied, the prices are ridiculous online! O_O $15 on ebay with $10 shipping…anywhere else you have to buy in 12-24 piece lots -.-
And the Chinese site doesn't ship internationally =(
6/8/11 14:37 Kat:
My aunts in Thailand use CC creams and RAVE about them. I haven't jumped on the BB cream wagon yet – I'm one of those darker skin toned Asians – think Eva Mendes skin coloring.
I'm dying to try the Smashbox, but seem to be in between the medium and dark. Would you recommend going lighter or darker?
6/9/11 0:38 Ciambella:
First BB and now CC? Pretty soon I'm going to ZZ! 😉
6/18/12 3:35 wei xing:
i want bb ok
Yeah, I wouldn't mind giving it a go, but I agree with the girls above that is sounds too good to be true. :/
6/9/11 7:48 tee:
whoa… marketing speak! just like nail polish's 'this is not jelly finish, this is sherbet finish' or whatever…
anyways…dont get me wrong here, I do love some chinese products. chinese teas and some herbs are fantastic. but cosmetics… simply put, i havent encounter pleasant experience//news with chinese consumer goods… except the dried teas and herbs.
6/9/11 10:36 Cher:
Color control creams were around before bb creams actually. I owned one before from a random Asian brand. I was hesitant but the SA sold it. It was like a tinted moisturizer with SPF. I liked mine and used it till the last drop. It came with a matching loose powder too. Cc creams never took off the way bb creams did though.
BB, CC, DD etc etc – sounds more like brassiere cups than anything now.
I live in Asia (grew up in Japan and am working in Singapore) and B.B. Creams are a huge hit here, what with all the Korean brands infiltrating every Asian market. I have all five of the Holika Holika Petit BBs you mentioned a few days back and I ADORE them!
Anyway, there's an ex-beauty pageant contestant that recently released her own C.C. Cream and it was quite awful, in my opinion, but I'm not sure if it's anything like the C.C. Creams you've shown here. :/
6/10/11 14:19 Sarah:
Hey muse I know this is about cc creams but i thought it would be a good place to catch you and ask which is your all time favorite bb creme that is available for purchase online in the us?
I want one with heavier coverage.
Thank you.
8/13/11 16:05 kate:
i tried the blue one. it feels very watery, brightens the skin very much but does not give coverage. it is just like a tinted moisturizer that absorbs into the skin, i feel like i have nothing on my face. i use it only when i want to even out my skintone and not wear any makeup.
…and the colour is very light! i am nw15/nc10 in mac and its pale on me
2/14/12 5:34 AmyO:
Hi <3 I was wondering if you know what the difference in the 4 CC Creams are? I think the blue one has something to do with moisture, which I don't need. I have oily, acne prone skin
2/14/12 5:37 AmyO:
I think it says something on the packaging, but I can't read it on this tiny phone screen lol
8/31/12 2:31 Shasha:
CC cream? this is the first time I heard about this cream~
10/10/12 7:24 Zadidoll:
Olay has released their version of a CC cream called Color Correcting Cream. I'm passing on buying it because they can't even get the term correct – color control is different than color correcting.
10/21/12 22:18 kloh_haru:
I'm quite afraid of using anything that's made in China. and goodness, it has already has a fake copy!
3/6/13 23:12 Lindsay:
They have hit the Korean market. I already ordered samples of Tony Moly's CC cream, but I don't think many other Korean companies are making them quite yet.
3/6/13 23:25 Lindsay:
Oh, I just saw the date of this post, Muse. Of course it hadn't hit the Korean market then. xD At first I was like, "What?"
3/19/13 5:40 Gina:
This sounds SO wonderful; I hope they're not just TMs The "lighter" scares me in that respect
3/30/13 5:21 Tiffany:
whats the best korean cc creams?

5 Things I Find Sexy in a Woman (That Aren't All About Sex). ~ Joe Vennare
Women are beautiful.
I think it goes without saying. Even women know women are beautiful. Watch the way they look at one another. You're all gorgeous. You know this.
Guys know it too. Yes, we're looking. You caught us.
Most of the time we're just browsing. Window shopping. Watching from afar.
When I do get close, the reasons I want to get close, have very little to do with looks. My list of what I find sexy in a woman is mostly about the things you can't see.
1. Take it Off
No, not your clothes (not yet!). I'm referring to your makeup. I'm attracted to natural beauty. I want a woman who is secure enough to know that she doesn't have to get made up for me—or anyone else. Honestly, I didn't notice that blemish. I don't care about your concealer. I'm looking into your eyes, listening to your words. I'm fawning over your smile. Covergirl can't make those things any more beautiful than they already are.
2. Free yourself
The world is an incredible place. I want to breath it in. To touch it and see it and experience it. The people and the places. All of it.
That's why I need a woman who wanders. She wanders because she doesn't know any other way. She gets cabin fever when she's outside. She gets lost in the woods and in her dreams. She explores new cities, countries, continents, cultures and chapter after chapter of her favorite book.
She always has a book handy. A notebook too. She writes words and makes art. Her mind is as free as her spirit. The only things more expansive than the list of places she's been are her vocabulary, her passions and the list of places she still wants to go.
She wants me to go with her too. Happiness is only real when shared she says, quoting Into the Wild. Because this woman has read Into the Wild. She's practically memorized it. Her copy of this book has the dog ears and marginalia to prove it.
Still, if I can't go, she'll go anyway. I love that about her.
3. Fly Solo
To say that she's independent does her a great disservice. She's cool doing her own thing. She likes her "me time". But, she doesn't want to be alone. She wants to be with me. She told me so. I melt when she does.
She's not independent in a hard-ass kind of way. She's not cold. Still some people are threatened by the fact that she can hold her own. She's not afraid to tell you what she thinks. To point out why you're wrong. But she listens when I talk. Remembers the details. Asks thoughtful questions. Gives stellar answers. She's a conversationalist. She's articulate. And well spoken. It intimidates some people. It bores others. It turns me on.
It's just that she's comfortable in her own skin. She knows that I can't make her whole. She doesn't expect me to. She's all over it, working on herself. Self-actualized. Aware. Mindful. Introspective. Thoughtful.
I do want to help though. To inspire her. Support her. Make her go further than she would go on her own. I believe in her.
Yes, I am going to push her. I need her to push back.
I'm going to ask tough questions. I need to understand her.
I want her to have what she wants. I'm going to do everything I can to make sure she gets it. But she doesn't want things. Money can't buy what she wants, what we want.
I'm talking about happiness. Honesty. Closeness. Fulfillment. Trust. Authenticity. Connection. Communication.
We both know that those things take hard work. She's game. I guess she's not flying solo after all. She could if she had to. But we're navigating this journey together.
4. All Grown Up
Have you noticed that the sexy being I've been describing is a woman, not a girl?
Girls are petty and immature. They play games. Fish for compliments. Go clubbing. Throw tantrums. Girls need attention.
Sure the woman I've been describing likes attention. I like giving it to her. But what she's really after is respect. She knows that it's earned so she respects herself and her body. She respects me.
Yes, she's a big girl. A grown up. That doesn't mean that she's itching to put down roots and pop out babies. Although she's mature enough to talk about those things with me. There's no rush. No pressure. When it's time, and she knows it's right, we'll plan our future. It doesn't scare her. It excites her. I'm excited too.
5. Come Closer
Yes. Please. All of you! I'm literally going to kiss every single inch of your body. It's your fault. Stop looking so good.
I can't help myself when she's around. She could be sitting on the couch in her pajamas reading a book. I want to jump her. Especially when she's wearing that sundress and flip flops. Her hair falling in front of her face. She brushes it back behind her ear. Those eyes. Those lips. It's all over.
Do you know the best part? She is fighting the same battle.
She never kisses me and doesn't mean it. I'm telling you. Every single kiss is the best kiss. I don't know how it's possible. And the sex is like the kisses. Every time is the best time.
She likes when I'm in control. But, isn't afraid to take over. She prefers that I make the first move. But she won't hesitate to initiate. I told you, she wants me the way that I want her.
Either way, every way, every position and speed and location is epic because we have an emotional connection that makes it so. We work on making it good the same way we work on ourselves and each other.
We can talk about it when it's over, before it starts or in the middle of the day. We can talk about what we like and don't like and want to try. We can talk about everything. Nothing is off limits. That openness. That kind of communication makes our relationship better. It makes the sex better. It brings us closer together.
Do you want to know the sexiest thing about her?
No matter how close we get, clothes or not, we'll never be close enough. She wants to keep trying. And so do I.

Love this…Thank you for putting into words what women think…want…need…from their man…When they get this….Their men become kings! You get it my friend…you most certainly get it…single…married. ..alone…all women, who have an emotional backbone…want this….maybe it will help men and women articulate more clearly how to love and be loved. ..just simply…Thank you
I LOVE this.
To be in such a relationship is a true blessing. This article made me tear up because it reminds me so much of what I have… It's beautiful. Magical. Irreplaceable. Thank you for your inspiring and genuine words!
I would like to add "a smile." A simple smile. What a rush!
Thank you. <3
I agree with everything in this article. Issue number 1 (makeup) is one of my greatest confusions about women. I wish someone would write an article titled, "Why your girlfriend keeps wearing makeup even though you constantly tell her how beautiful she is without makeup and how makeup does nothing except diminish her beauty." Honestly — I have never met a woman who looks better with makeup than without.
Have you ever though about the fact that maybe women DONT wear makeup for men, but rather because they enjoy it? Many women are perfectly confident without it, its a hobby for some, so stop judging and telling us that because YOU don't like it we shouldn't wear it. Its not for you.
Michael, Glad you like the natural woman…. but maybe you could consider the thought "she" likes how "she" looks with her make up on and it doesn't have anything to do with your opinion?
Oh my goodness…this makes my heart thump with recognition.
Honestly, how am I supposed to live up to that? All it does is put even more pressure on me.
I am this woman.
I don't wear make up because I am lazy. I don't own cute clothes because I think they are a waste of time. I care very little about my looks. I don't look like the models in the stock images because they are styled by people who care a lot about appearance and are most definitely wearing makeup. I am independent and complete, but I am focused on my career and need someone to support me in the rare occasion that stress at work reduces me to an ugly cry or emotional tantrum. I like to wander, but sometimes I can't go because I have other responsibilities and getting my shit done, building my presence in the community, taking care of my family is more important than wandering aimlessly looking for myself. I like "Into the Wild" and it's dog eared with marginalia because it is about a stupid person and I don't want to live my life like him. I am a sensual person, but sometimes kissing me will feel like a chore. Sometimes sex just isn't that great. That's life and committed relationships. Sometimes I won't like you very much. Sometimes I will be in my pajamas reading a book and you touching me will be the last thing I want. It is not my fault that I am too attractive and you feel rejected, it is your sense of entitlement.
Don't aspire to be this woman as she exists in this article. She is a shell of a human.
AGREED! geeeeezzzeeeee
I think this article is unbelievably pretentious. What are you bringing to the table to have such lofty expectations of your partner?
Perhaps you should ask his partner, who apparently approves of him.
Thanks for reading and commenting Natalie.
To answer your question – I'm bringing everything I have, every day to be a better version of myself. I will work for the women I choose to be with. To meet and exceed her expectations. I might not be bringing much at the onset. She will get everything I can muster. Together, we'll exceed these ideals (not expectations)
I posted your article on my FB. everyone loves it. men and women. thank you!
Kiss your parents for me for raising a great man, and thank you for proving that there is a man out there with the same expectations for a woman as I have for a man.
Great article. Yes, there are women in this world who appreciate a man who can understand and respect them for who they are, not for what they want them to be.
By the way, Joe, YOU sound like what I want. Gimme your number!
(Kidding. Or maybe not..)
Wow! While describing what you find sexy in a woman you end up describing the sexy kind of man I am looking for. Thank you for your honesty.
I appreciate that you shared this with the readers Joe. It truly speaks from the heart, and I believe the foundation to a great relationship. Hopefully I'll find a counterpart who appreciates these things in me as well.
I've never read something so inspiring. Thank you for this.
I wish with all my heart that I could find a love like this..
This is a breathtakingly beautiful explanation. I'm so happy to have stumbled upon it and reading the whole text. You have an assertiveness to your writing that is both charming and eloquent! Lovely!!!
Perhaps, just perhaps, we don't wear make up for you, or any other man. Perhaps we do things for ourselves.
Maybe. But, where you do or you don't you're still beautiful. That was my point.
As a solo person who moved overseas to work, I find this was a pleasantly refreshing read. I'm an international teacher so I am sensitive to the pressures we put on girls/women but I would argue that most of these things at the foundation a parent would want for a daughter, a women would want for herself. While the international expat scene changes you in amazing ways forever, it can be a lonely one for some. With that said, it's nice to reiterate that the experiences that make you wiser, more independent, more open-minded that we, as women know are invaluable to our sense of self, are indeed "attractive". I also think that goes both ways.
What a great article – I relate 100%!
Very well written. When one finds this, it is truly an amazing and beautiful thing.
Reading this raises my trust in the universe! If you want this in a relationship, maybe there are other guys who want this also… because it sounds exactly how I want to "be" in a relationship, and how I think I tend to be already. I have gotten practice with this in my intimate friendships, reading this makes me feel more hopeful that someday it will also translate into a romantic relationship.
Love this! So well written, from the heart…. Looking for the same in a man….
I like all points except the first one. Makeup can simply be a form of self expression. I am as comfortable without makeup as I am with it on. I love it, I am an artist and enjoy painting not only canvas but my face. I watch videos and explore different eras and styles to suit my mood for the day. Not all women who choose make up are choosing to hide behind it.
I love wearing make-up as well… and I do so anytime of day. …be that even while hiking (my face deserves the dignity if I chose it) or even during a yoga teacher training. Recently, I received backlash for putting make-up on each day before such training. Needless to say, I didn't NEED to wear make-up to this activity, but it was my way to keep something about myself while I was treated as just a "number"– as we were treated in said training. Oddly enough, on our 1-day off, I chose to go into town not wearing any make-up and bumped into those peers who during training didn't wear any- but had painted faces on our day off. To each their own! We're all entitled to self-expression on our own journey's. Thank you, Tammy.
I live the sentiment of this article, though one sentence really sticks out. Saying that "it's your fault, stop looking so good" is the same argument date rapists make. Being really attracted to your partner is one thing, blaming them for your advances is another.
Really, Katie? That's what you took my words to mean? unwarranted advances are always unacceptable. The fact that I am so stimulated by my partner – spiritually, emotionally, physically, intellectually, creatively – is what I was referring to.
Thank you <3
You know, saying what is the opposite of a social construct is no less trite than the construct itself. 1) Make up is fun. It's like paint, sculpture and a history lesson on my face, everyday. And guess what? Sometimes, I don't feel like wearing make up and I'm beautiful both ways because it's always ME. 2) Someone who's free? A woman reading Into The Wild is free? That book isn't written by a woman or for a woman and, as a woman, I don't find it entirely relatable. I find him an incredibly lonely individual who found solace in a place that he didn't understand and eventually rejected him (harsh, I know). Not free. Yes, the wilderness is beautiful and exotic locales are beautiful and women in the wilderness/exotic locales are beautiful. They're also beautiful in cities, on the couch, with baby spit up on their shirts, or just so tired from life that they need a nap. Stop idealizing, please. 3) I am so sad that you feel it is necessary to distinguish that a woman should be independent. All women are independent because they are autonomous human beings. 4) This may come as a shock to you but women go clubbing, too, because many of them like any combination of music, dancing, drinks and friends. Also, a woman is no less a woman just because she throws tantrums and fishes for compliments. If you were a kind and caring man who had won her affections, you'd take the time to find out why she does that because that's what compassionate humans do. If she is 18+ and identifies as female, she's a woman. There is no discussion to be had on that. 5) Are you aware that successful long term relationships go through cycles that lack physical intimacy or that they also go through cycles that lack emotional intimacy, sometimes at the same time? Why do they keep going? Some explanations are beautiful and some are rather mundane. In my opinion, the "why" doesn't matter at all. What matters is that most people crave it and should have realistical expectations about what it is that they're looking for. What you have written does not convey any insight into the beautiful intricacies of a sexy woman, or man, for that matter. What makes someone sexy translates across gender lines pretty easily when it's not about stereotypes. I think you're talking about a literate wood nymph (they probably don't go to clubs).
I found your response to be equally pleasing. Though I don't agree with you, as a woman the author's intent still resonates with me and I found your response to be the replica of that which the author speaks. You're beautiful because you are naked in your thinking; not willing to go along with the melodies of his romanticizing. You are independent because you choose to look and feel how you want for no one else but yourself. You look very sexy to me-no makeup needed.
I second Christine's reply for the most part, but also wanted to add that, I do think there's a difference between autonomy and independence. It's subtle, but it's there. Often, independence eschews the idea that we are actually interdependent, always. But autonomy inplies we are capable of self-regulating and existing as individuals who are interdependent on one another. And, I would also say that just because you're 18+ doesn't mean you're automatically a 'man' or a 'woman'. I think many adults lack the emotional maturity–and autonomy–to be accurately represented with the label 'man' and 'woman'. No, clubbing is not an accurate representation fo what makes a "man" or "woman", but I appreciate the metaphor he's using to describe what is often a stereotype of game playing and manipulation attributed to the general club-going demographic. And it's that game playing that he's really speaking to.
I get where you're coming from, but I wonder if there's a place to take this, not as some unordered checklist of the perfect woman, but for the romantic ideal of partnership it is? I, too, am a woman who likes to go to clubs from time to time. Sometimes, I wear makeup for fun. I read Into the Wild, but it didn't resonate with me. However, I relate to my fella much like this article and it's the most beautiful relationship experience I've ever had. Sure, substitute Rilke for Into the Wilde, or flip the script on how my man is willing to fly solo and the picture of this supposed ideal becomes a reality when two partners are working–regardless of their circumstance–towards mutually shared definitions, dropping assumptions, communicating with compassion, and cultivating a wonderfully present attitude. It doesn't mean things don't ebb and flow between us; it means we communicate about those changing tides honestly, authentically, and openly, and it brings us constantly closer together, just as this romantic ideal suggests.
Well stated Ms Kayleigh, well stated!
You nailed this and thank you. I read this post and thought WTF? You however, quite eloquently put that into words. Thank you, I actually thought the post was joking at first but sadly not.
Nice work Joe, beautifully written, and I couldn't say it better myself.
Beautifully written! May you and your woman go a long way
Beautifullly written! May you and your woman go a long way
Loved it !
Great article, Joe! I loved it!
It looks like the letter to universe to ask that kind of women thank you for sharing your vision : ) I fell in love with it. good luck and thank you for inspiration
Beautiful Joe! Thank you for sharing!
Ash Constance
I think that people who are generally offended by the idealism in this article may be missing the point. The author is not saying that, in order for any woman to be attractive, she must meet these qualifications. What the author is trying to convey is that for him (and likely others), sex appeal is not limited to boobs/butt/things classically oriented with sex appeal– rather, there are things that he deeply appreciates about interacting with a woman who is equivocally attracted to him who shares similar qualities and interests. This is an article that details depth of an attraction based on the spirit of his partner, the communication they share, and the mutual attraction they possess. I am in general appreciative of the sentiments expressed, as I can relate and value several of the mentioned attributes about my husband.
However–I, too, am annoyed by the clubbing/tantrum/attention comment. I wonder if the author has found a woman who has never experienced the feeling of being "hangry" (anger as a direct result of hunger) or who is one of the lucky ones among us who simply doesn't ever have PMS. If you value that she tells you what's on her mind, her letting you know that she'd be happier with more attention from you shouldn't be an issue. And clubbing can have so many different meanings– but just know that even the most down to earth, kind hearted, wanderlusty lady can still reasonably enjoy a night out every once in a while that involves alcohol, makeup, dancing to catchy pop music and wearing ridiculously sparkly/sexed up clothes with her friends.
Thanks for reading and sharing your insights! Sorry that you were "annoyed." To clarify — I'm not searching for perfection, rather a standard. Certainly everyone has a bad day, the same way everyone (man or women) enjoys a night out every now and then.
My point is this – that's not their standard. Their standard is progress and passion, compassion and connection. Form my personal experience you're unlikely to find those characteristics in someone (man or woman) who is hanging out in the club Tuesday night, complaining about how bad their life is while doing nothing to change it.
Hangry, PMS, stressed, sad, overwhelmed – WHATEVER – I'm there. I want to hear about it and listen and do my part to make it better. Because their standard is the same as mine – always WORKING to grow closer, to communicate and create the kind of love we can't live without
4 words, a million eye-rolls: MANIC PIXIE DREAM GIRL. The biggest cliché ever for a young male writer of our time.
This girl does not exist because she is a shell of a human. And if she did exist you would find her undateable because those positive aspects seem to be overlying some serious problems.
Humans have feelings, negative and positive and if you really love a woman, she should be able to have tantrums, be a little needy, be unattractive sometimes, and even go to a nightclub, and you'd love her anyway.
I appreciate your insights Irene. I'd encourage you see my other comment – about the club, tantrums etc. But, I believe this women does exist. If not, I am going to get as close as I can. That's my choice, I suppose.
It's hard to believe as I read through the comments that anyone could find this offensive in any way, I totally got it! What a lucky woman she is. Loved this! that you are so sure of it is beautiful. Thank you
If the woman was physically unattractive to begin with, but still had all of these traits and qualities, would you still find her "sexy"? Probably not. Because if a woman is not attractive, she is immediately dismissed by some men, and those men can't get past that and see her other qualities. So that "disqualifies" a huge percentage of the women out there.
My pet peeve is when men say that it isn't just about looks and physical attraction, that all of these other things matter, yet if there isn't physical attraction immediately they can't get past that. The first thing you mention is that she should have "natural beauty," without makeup. Hmmm. So–that's the first thing that you notice, and everything else is secondary. If she REALLY had all of those other great qualities, but she was not so pretty, so wore makeup the same way that some might wear a flattering outfit or accessories, would you immediately dismiss her? Probably.
My other pet peeve is the double standard that exists: That women are expected to not care so much about looks when it comes to men, that they are expected to show interest in men much older than themselves, that they are expected to show interest in men that are less physically attractive than they are (asymmetry in this regard favors the male in the relationship). Why? Because supposedly women aren't ruled by their sex drive the way that men are and are supposed to admire men for their intelligence, creativity, sense of humor, and ability to be good providers. Women are seen by many men as sexless after age fifty or after menopause, so many older men feel they have to seek younger women because they still have a high sex drive.
I am tired of all of these impossible to meet standards. I think that men out there still fantasize about "the girl next door." Just look at the photos that accompany this article.
I really enjoyed this article, fantastic read!
I can only go on how my gut reacts to this article. Thank you so much for taking the time to think and put your words down …. But I feel it's not the true reflection of how I wish to be perceived & accepted. As a single mum, recently turned 40, yoga teacher, community worker, citizen of Northern Ireland (totally relevant)….I see myself in a much more complex, beautiful delight/light . Much much more than reduced to a list of sorts.
I totally get your vibe in your search …..but we are what we are:)
I've seen this post in my Facebook newsfeed a few times. This morning I took the bate. Honestly tho, I didn't love it. I relate to the details in some of the comments above: it just sounds like you're saying I love you as a whole! And then you describe a pretty conventional version of the ideal woman. I call her Hot Easy-Going Girl, and I have struggled with not being her for a long time, and I do myself a disservice by rejecting the parts of myself that don't fit the "shell" as one commenter put it. I sense that your girl doesn't shave but still has culturally-acceptable amounts of body hair. She comes every time you have sex. Her BO is sweet, as is her breath first thing in the morning. She won't have fertility issues after the age of 35. She doesn't get PMS that throws her into a state of rage/a sobbing mess, or worse. It's like that other Elephant piece with the thin almost-hairless white woman who has finally accepted her body enough to post nude pics of herself online. I'm not sure I know how to say all this without sounding cranky (Hot Easy-Going Girl would) but I don't need to read about this kind of ideal.
I love it when people write such lovely articles about me 😉
Simply beautiful. One of, if not, the most beautiful article i've ever read. God blesses us with gifts for a reason, to be shared. Thank you author. for your truth. This is love x
I'm a sceptic because I think this article is creepy. I wouldn't want a guy being too bedazzled by me. Let's be realistic and cut the fluff. Also I'm sceptical because there are MANY wonderful women like these out there all over the world and yet men are in real life intimidated by them so they're very single or else they're gay. (Sorry guys!) But go ahead and dream anyways. Never hurts to have the head in the clouds once in awhile.
Reading this article is like being subjected an over-long patronising One Direction song.
I think (hope) the author was speaking about what is sexy to him about his girlfriend…they are happy to have found oneanother. It's not a general definition of 'being sexy'
The femininity of a woman doing everything in a relationship. In my opinion

McDonald's Corp. has filed trademarks for ground and whole bean coffee, suggesting that the world's biggest hamburger chain may start selling its brew in stores or in supermarkets.
The Oak Brook, Ill.-based company filed the trademarks for "McCafe" ground and whole bean coffee last month. A spokeswoman for McDonald's, Danya Proud, said it was nothing unusual.
"As part of doing business, we register a number of trademarks to protect our brand equities," Proud said. "This is nothing new."
Aside from its gift cards, Proud said McDonald's does not currently sell any products in supermarkets.
A big part of McDonald's success story in recent years has been the expansion of its beverage business; the company introduced is premium coffee drinks in 2009 and followed up with fruit smoothies the following year. But a move into bagged coffee would be new ground at a time when the fast food chain's growth around the world has slowed.

Land Use
Advertising "wallscape" on side of commercial building was not "lawfully erected" within the meaning of Business and Professions Code Section 5216.1 where, at the time it was erected, its size exceeded the maximum permitted by law; it was closer to the nearest highway than allowed by law; and it lacked the required permit. That government did not attempt to enforce Outdoor Advertising Act against noncompliant wallscape until 22 years after it was erected and seven years after current owner acquired property did not preclude enforcement after that time. Mere government inaction with respect to land use regulation will not give rise to equitable estoppel or laches, so owner must show that it affirmatively and reasonably relied on some statement or action of the government that led it to believe the nonconforming use would not be the subject of an enforcement action. Abatement of unlawfully erected wallscape did not give rise to an inverse condemnation claim where wallscape was not a lawful use at the time owner acquired the property.

The requirements of the California Coastal Act of 1976 and the Mello Act apply to a proposed conversion within California's coastal zone of a mobile home park from tenant occupancy to resident ownership, and such a conversion is not a "development" for purposes of the Coastal Act. Subdivision Map Act does not exempt mobile home park conversions from compliance with other state laws, nor does it preclude local governmental agencies from exercising state-delegated authority to require such compliance.

Library and Learning Resources
The Library has been designated a Tribal Library by the Tribal government and, as such, serves the whole reservation population as the major resource/research center for students, faculty, community and professionals. As an academic library, the Library will provide services and support for all courses offered at Fort Peck Community College.
The Library collection includes over 10,000 titles and 123 periodicals with periodical support being added by an online database funded by the Montana State Legislature. The Library is automated and materials are as close as a keystroke. Interlibrary loan is provided by a statewide consortium, which has made World Cat available online. World Cat makes library holdings from all over the U.S. available to Fort Peck library patrons.
Anyone who resides on Fort Peck Reservation or is a student at FPCC can obtain a card at Fort Peck Tribal Library. Children under 18 must have signed permission from a parent or guardian to use the Fort Peck Tribal Library. The Library has received funding and support from various charitable, federal and state resources. The Library has competed for and received federal grants. These grants have assisted the Library in full automation and several collection development projects with other libraries on the reservation and statewide. All these resources, as well as material contributions from individuals and other organizations and a general fund budget continue to enhance the Library resources and service capabilities.

Fans had expected to see Kenny Chesney on CBS' Sunday Morning earlier this fall, but his segment is now set to air this Sunday, November 3. In the feature, Kenny takes the CBS News crew along with him for an emotional trip to Boston Medical Center to meet those benefiting from his Spread the Love Fund, which supports ongoing care for amputee victims from the Boston Marathon bombing. Crews also follow along as he wrapped his No Shoes Nation Tour.
"I knew when they decided to come back, they weren't looking for a ride on the gator," Kenny said of his second time appearing on the show. "I've grown a lot as an artist, as a person since that first one – and I think that maybe intrigued them. A lot of soul searching goes into what we do, and what we're doing in Boston in terms of the city, the fans and the Fund, especially."
Kenny has covered a lot of ground in 2013. He released his latest album, Life On A Rock, launched Blue Chair Bay Rum and launched the Spread The Love Fund. He also spent April through August on his No Shoes Nation Tour which played for more than 1.25 million fans and included 19 NFL stadium stops.
Kenny's first Sunday Morning special aired eight years ago and followed a man on the verge of superstardom as he set out to play his first stadiums. His new piece looks at a more reflective artist balancing the demands of his career with his desire to give back, make a different and go deeper into his creative process. He hopes the piece reminds people that the victims of the Boston Marathon Bombing will need support for the rest of their lives.
"Watching what happened on TV, as the entire nation did, really threw me," Kenny said. "But meeting these amazing people who're putting their lives together, hearing their stories and seeing how they approach getting their lives back… I was moved beyond words."
Kenny plans to take 2014 off from touring in order to focus on his next album.

Department of Ecology fines King County for trail work violation
December 18, 2012
By Warren Kagarise
State regulators fined King County $1,500 after workers failed to follow rules to stop sediment discharges into a municipal storm drain during construction on the East Lake Sammamish Trail.
The state Department of Ecology said crews from the county Facilities Management Division repeatedly did not install the proper controls outlined under the storm water permit to prevent sediment discharges.
The agency issued the fine July 20, but did not announce the penalty until Nov. 27, as the Department of Ecology detailed all fines issued statewide between July and September. Officials typically do not issue individual media releases unless a penalty reaches $10,000 or more.
The agency works alongside local governments, businesses and residents on compliance issues. Violators receive penalties in instances after the Department of Ecology provides technical assistance or warnings, or for particularly serious violations.
Construction continues on the East Lake Sammamish Trail through Issaquah.
The regional trail closed through Issaquah in May for up to a year as crews remove the existing gravel surface and construct a 12-foot asphalt trail. The closure affects a 2.2-mile stretch from Northwest Gilman Boulevard to Southeast 43rd Way.
Officials said extensive work in the narrow corridor required a complete closure.
The path unfurls along the Burlington Northern Santa Fe railroad corridor. The completed East Lake Sammamish Trail is meant to stretch 44 miles from Seattle's Ballard neighborhood to Issaquah.
The estimated cost to complete the segment is $2.74 million. The county used funding from the King County Open Space and Trails Levy, federal Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality Program, and the Washington Wildlife and Recreation Program.
Plans also call for crews to add gravel shoulders, concrete sidewalk connections, retaining walls, fencing and signage, plus wetland planting and landscaping.
The upgrade is meant to make the trail accessible to a wider range of users, including bicyclists using narrow tires and people wearing inline skates.

Suffolk Civil RegistrationEdit This Page
From FamilySearch Wiki
England Civil Registration Suffolk Parishes
When civil registration of births, marriages and deaths began in 1837, Suffolk was divided into a number of registration districts, each containing several parishes. The districts were formed in close relationship to the Hundreds in the County that had existed for hundreds of years for administrative, military, and judicial purposes. There was a major reorganization of districts in 1935; thereby, many of the historical districts created in 1837 were replaced with new names and boundaries. Certificates can be obtained from district registrars in Suffolk as well as the General Register Office. There is a duplicate of the marriage certificate in the parish where the marriage took place; therefore, it may be found in a microfilm copy of the parish registers. There is no duplicate of a birth certificate or death certificate at the parish level. Consult the England Civil Registration page for an in-depth understanding. The England 1851 Jurisdiction maps provide an interactive view of the parishes in relation to district boundaries. (details about England 1851 Jurisdiction website)
Civil Registration Indexes
By identifying a person in the civil registration indexes, one is able to order a certificate from the General Register Office. There are many sites that provide access to the civil registration indexes. FreeBMD is a preferred site since it provides free access and it has an excellent search capacity.(watch youtube video) FreeBMD searches can be conducted on a district level, county level or national level. One also can search the district registrar indexes in person at their offices. The General Register Office indexes do not correspond with the indexes at the district level.
