Baby Gap
How birthrates color the electoral map
By Steve Sailer
Despite the endless verbiage expended trying to explain Americas remarkably stable division into Republican and Democratic regions, almost no one has mentioned the obscure demographic factor that correlated uncannily with states partisan splits in both 2000 and 2004.
Clearly, the issues that so excite political journalists had but a meager impact on most voters. For example, the press spent the last week of the 2004 campaign in a tizzy over the looting of explosives at Iraqs al-Qaqaa munitions dump, but, if voters even noticed al-Qaqaa, their reactions were predetermined by their party loyalty.
The 2000 presidential election, held during peace and prosperity, became instantly famous for illuminating a land culturally divided into a sprawling but thinly populated red expanse of Republicans broken up by small but densely peopled blue archipelagos of Democrats.
Four years of staggering events ensued, during which President Bush discarded his old humble foreign policy for a new one of nearly Alexandrine ambitions. Yet the geographic and demographic profiles of Bush voters in 2004 turned out almost identical to 2000, with the country as a whole simply nudged three points to the right.
Only a few groups appeared to have moved more than the average. The counties within commuting distance of New Yorks World Trade Center became noticeably less anti-Bush. Yet even the one purported sizable demographic changethe claim by the troubled exit poll that Bush picked up nine points among Hispanicsappears to be an exaggeration caused by small sample sizes and poor survey techniques. In the real world, Hispanic counties swung toward Bush only about as much as everybody else did.
That the president launched a war under false pretenses no doubt caused a few highly-informed constituencies, such as the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the CIA, and the subscribers to this magazine, to shift many of their votes, but almost every group large enough to be measurable by exit polling was relatively stable. If they supported Bushs foreign policy in 2000, they supported his contrary stance in 2004 and vice versa.
Still, this doesnt mean voters are choosing red or blue frivolously. Indeed, voters are picking their parties based on differing approaches to the most fundamentally important human activity: having babies. The white people in Republican-voting regions consistently have more children than the white people in Democratic-voting regions. The more kids whites have, the more pro-Bush they get.
Ill focus primarily on Caucasians, who overall voted for Bush 58-41, in part because they are doing most of the arguing over the meaning of the red-blue division. The reasons blacks vote Democratic are obvious, and other racial blocs are smaller. Whites remain the 800-pound gorilla of ethnic electoral groups, accounting for over three out of every four votes.
The single most useful and understandable birthrate measure is the total fertility rate. This estimates, based on recent births, how many children the average woman currently in her childbearing years will have. The National Center for Health Statistics reported that in 2002 the average white woman was giving birth at a pace consistent with having 1.83 babies during her lifetime, or 13 percent below the replacement rate of 2.1 children per woman. This below-replacement level has not changed dramatically in three decades.
States, however, differ significantly in white fertility. The most fecund whites are in heavily Mormon Utah, which, not coincidentally, was the only state where Bush received over 70 percent. White women average 2.45 babies in Utah compared to merely 1.11 babies in Washington, D.C., where Bush earned but 9 percent. The three New England states where Bush won less than 40 percentMassachusetts, Vermont, and Rhode Islandare three of the four states with the lowest white birthrates, with little Rhode Island dipping below 1.5 babies per woman.
Bush carried the 19 states with the highest white fertility (just as he did in 2000), and 25 out of the top 26, with highly unionized Michigan being the one blue exception to the rule. (The least prolific red states are West Virginia, North Dakota, and Florida.)
In sharp contrast, Kerry won the 16 states at the bottom of the list, with the Democrats anchor states of California (1.65) and New York (1.72) having quite infertile whites.
Among the 50 states plus Washington, D.C., white total fertility correlates at a remarkably strong 0.86 level with Bushs percentage of the 2004 vote. (In 2000, the correlation was 0.85.) In the social sciences, a correlation of 0.2 is considered low, 0.4 medium, and 0.6 high.
You could predict 74 percent of the variation in Bushs shares just from knowing each states white fertility rate. When the average fertility goes up by a tenth of a child, Bushs share normally goes up by 4.5 points.
In a year of predictably partisan books, one lively surprise has been Whats the Matter with Kansas? by Thomas Frank, a left-wing journalist from Kansas who, after a sojourn in Chicago, now lives with his wife and single child in the Democratic stronghold of Washington, D.C. Frank is puzzled by why conservative Republicans in his home state are obsessed with cultural issues such as abortion, gay marriage, and teaching evolution in the schools instead of the leftist economic populism that Frank admires in Kansass past.
While the Christian Right in Kansas doesnt much hold with Darwin, they are doing well at the basic Darwinian task of reproducing themselves: pro-life Kansas has the fourth-highest white fertility in the country at 2.06 babies per woman, and the birthrate of the conservative Republicans that Frank finds so baffling is likely to be even higher. On the crucial question of whether a group can be bothered not to die out, Whats the Matter with Massachusetts? would be a more pertinent question. Massachusettss whites are failing to replace themselves, averaging only 1.6 babies per woman, and the states liberal Democrats are probably reproducing even less than that.
So white birthrates and Republican voting are closely correlated, but what causes what? The arrow of causality seems to flow in both directions.
To understand whats driving this huge political phenomenon, you have to think like a real-estate shopper, not like an intellectual. Everybody loves to talk real estate, but the sharp insights into how the world works that you hear while shooting the breeze about houses and neighborhoods seldom work their way into prestigious discourse about public affairs.
As youve seen on all those red-blue maps, most of Americas land is red, even though Kerry won 48 percent of the vote. Even excluding vast Alaska, Bushs counties are only one-fourth as densely populated on average as Kerrys counties. Lower density helps explain why red regions both attract the baby-oriented and encourage larger families among those already there.
A dozen years ago, University of Chicago sociologist Edward O. Laumann and others wrote a tome with the soporific postmodern title The Social Organization of Sexuality. I wrote to them and suggested a follow-up called The Sexual Organization of Society because, in my experience with Chicago, where people lived coincided with their sexual status. In 1982, when I moved to Chicago as a young single man, I sought out detailed advice on where the greatest density of pretty girls lived and there rented a 21st-floor apartment with a stunning view of Lake Michigan. I became engaged three years later, and so, mission accomplished, I moved to a less chic neighborhood with more affordable rents. Two years later, when my bride became pregnant, we relocated to an even more unfashionable spot where we could buy ample square footage. (To my satisfaction, Laumanns team just this year published a categorization of Chicagos neighborhoods entitled The Sexual Organization of the City.)
My experience is hardly unusual. Singles often move to cities because the density of other singles makes them good places to become unsingle. But singles, especially women, generally vote Democratic. For example, in the 2002 midterm elections, only 39 percent of unmarried women and 44 percent of unmarried men voted for a GOP candidate for the House of Representatives. In contrast, 56 percent of married women voted for the GOP, similar to their husbands 58 percent. The celebrated gender gap is, in truth, largely a marriage gap among women.
When city couples marry, they face major decisions: do they enjoy the adult-oriented cultural amenities of the city so much that they will stick it out, or do they head for the suburbs, exurbs, or even the country to afford more space for a growing family?
Couples attempting to raise children in a big blue city quickly learn the truth of what bond trader Sherman McCoys father told him in Tom Wolfes Bonfire of the Vanities: If you want to live in New York, youve got to insulate, insulate, insulate. Manhattan liberals all believe in celebrating diversity in theory but typically draw the line at subjecting their own offspring to it in the public schools. With Manhattan private K-12 school tuitions now approaching $25,000, insulating multiple children rapidly becomes too expensive for all but the filthy rich.
In tempting contrast, the cost-of-living calculator provided by Realtor.com says that a $100,000 salary in liberal Manhattan buys only as much as a $38,000 salary in conservative Pinehurst, North Carolina. Likewise, a San Francisco couple earning $100,000 between them can afford just as much in Cedar City, Utah if the husband can find a $44,000-a-year joband then the wife can stay home with their children. Moreover, the culture of Cedar City is more conducive to child rearing than San Francisco. Having insulated themselves through distance rather than money, they can now send their kids to public schools. (Among red states, the South has lower white fertility than the northern Great Plains and Great Basin, perhaps because many Southern conservatives, like many Manhattan liberals, prefer private schools, which makes children more expensive than out in Lewis & Clark Country, where the public schools are popular because they arent terribly diverse.) In Cedar City, the wife wont feel as unprestigious for being a stay-at-home mom as she would in San Francisco. And mom wont have to chauffeur the kids everywhere because traffic and crime are light enough that they can ride their bikes.
With more children, the couple will have less money per child to buy insulation from Americas corrosive media culture, so they are likely to look to the government for help. Typically, red-region parents dont ask for much, often just for quasi-symbolic endorsements of family values, the non-economic gestures that drive Thomas Frank crazy. But theres nothing irrational about trying to protect and guide your children. As the socially conservative black comedian Chris Rock advises fathers, Your main job is to keep your daughter off The Pole (i.e., to keep her from becoming a stripper).
That red-region parents want their politicians to endorse morality does not necessarily mean that red staters always behave more morally than blue staters. While there are well-behaved red states such as Utah and Colorado, hell-raising white Texans are 3.4 times more likely than white New Yorkers to be behind bars. Similarly, whites in conservative Mississippi and South Carolina are one-sixth as likely as blacks in those states to be imprisoned, compared to the national average of one-ninth. By contrast, in ultra-liberal Washington D.C., whites are only one-fifty-sixth as likely to be in the slammer as blacks.
The late socialist historian Jim Chapin pointed out that it was perfectly rational for parents with more children than money to ask their political and cultural leaders to help them insulate their kids from bad examples, even, or perhaps especially, if the parents themselves are not perfect role models.
Focusing on children, insulation, and population density reveals that blue-region white Democrats positions on vouchers, gun control, and environmentalism are motivated partly by fear of urban minorities.
In 2001, the Wall Street Journals favorite mayor, Brett Schundler, ran for governor of New Jersey on a platform of vouchers to help inner-city children attend better schools in the suburbs. The now notorious Democrat Jim McGreevey beat him badly because white suburban moderates shunned this Republican who put the welfare of urban minority children ahead of their own. These homeowners were scraping together big mortgage payments precisely to get their kids into exclusive suburban school districts insulated from what they saw as the ghetto hellions that Schundler hoped to unleash on their children. They had much of their net worths tied up in their homes, and their property values depended on the local public schools high test scores, which they feared wouldnt survive an onslaught of slum children. So they voted Democratic to keep minorities in their place.
The endless gun-control brouhaha, which on the surface appears to be a bitter battle between liberal and conservative whites, also features a cryptic racial angle. What blue-region white liberals actually want is for the government to disarm the dangerous urban minorities that threaten their childrens safety. Red-region white conservatives, insulated by distance from the Crips and the Bloods, dont care that white liberals kids are in peril. Besides, in sparsely populated Republican areas, where police response times are slow and the chances of drilling an innocent bystander are slim, guns make more sense for self-defense than in the cities and suburbs.
White liberals, angered by white conservatives lack of racial solidarity with them, yet bereft of any vocabulary for expressing such a verboten concept, pretend that they need gun control to protect them from gun-crazy rural rednecks, such as the ones Michael Moore demonized in Bowling for Columbine, thus further enraging red-region Republicans.
Likewise, liberals in blue areas such as Northern California pioneer environmental restrictions on development in part to keep out illegal immigrants and other poor minorities. Thinly populated Republican areas are pro-development because increasing density raises property values as once remote regions obtain roads, sewer hookups, cable television, local shopping, and nice restaurants. If poorly planned, however, overcrowding causes property values to lag, allowing poor people to move in.
Conservative Southern California, home to Richard Nixon and Ronald Reagan, was traditionally more laissez faire than liberal Northern California, ultimately allowing itself to be inundated by poorly educated illegal aliens, wrecking the public schools. In contrast, environmentalistand thus expensiveNorthern California attracted a variety of skilled immigrants. Eventually, many Los Angeles Republicans either fled inland or decided that those San Francisco Democrats had the right idea all along.
Now illegal immigrants are flocking to other pro-growth red states, such as North Carolina and Georgia, and may eventually turn those states Democratic due both to the Democratic-voting immigrants very high birthrates and to a California-style drift toward environmentalism among its white voters as laissez faire proves inadequate to keep out illegal aliens.
Nobody noticed that the famous blue-red gap was a white baby gap because the subject of white fertility is considered disreputable. But I believe the truth is better for us than ignorance, lies, or wishful thinking. At least, its certainly more interesting. _________________________________________________________
Steve Sailer is TACs film critic. He also writes for VDARE.com and iSteve.com.
No, you're just the only one who interprets it this way.
Whatsa matter, can't take having someone reason their way to a logical conclusion?
If memory serves, they endorsed Kerry
Actually they endorsed no one. The final pre-election issue had four articles championing the four candidates of note: Bush, Kerry, Badnarik and Peroutka. Buchanan went for Bush.
then seems to turn into a xenophobic, race-obsessed doomsday prediction?
Oh, of course. Any discussion of caucasians in any context is always xenophobic, right, liberal? If he had said "it's disgraceful how ethnically homogeneous these places are! Where are the minorities?!" like a NYT writer, you'd be applauding approvingly.
So, how's them Rockefeller Readings going, Mr. Multi-Culturalist-UN man?
Aside from the author using 'child rearing' and 'San Francisco' in the same sentence, this is a great article.
I found the article fascinating but the anti-bush bias and (in the last few paragraphs, the xenophobic racism) was over the top. It did point out that blue cities tend to be that way because young singles go there to concentrate on their careers and live it up. When they have families they see the virtue of putting some distance between themselves and the throbbing streets. Author Sailer does point out the often overlooked phenomenon of neighborhoods, municipalities, regions, etc. wanting to pull up the drawbridge and keep the riffraff out (through zoning, "environmentalism," clamping down on roadbuilding, etc. I object to his blanket insinuations about "poor people." A great many "poor people" are youngsters starting out. As Mr. Jack Kemp (re: Empower America) would tell you, even "poor people" of whatever color tend not to despoil their own communities when they own their own homes, however humble. Dr. Theodore Dalrymple reminds us in his every article that the barbarism of the ghetto/barrio/trailer park is caused by the psychological debilitations of the welfare state. Thomas Sowell, when he gets going on about his youth, never hesitates to remind us that poor communities are not necessarily sinkholes of pathology.
The houses of my own neighborhood in Arlington, VA have become rental properties as the older residents die off. The newest phenomenon is that of old houses being bought and torn down with mini-Mcmansions being built on the lots for wealthy empty-nesters. But very few young families can afford to come here. The place has gotten very "young" as all the renters tend to be up-and-comers fresh out of college starting their careers in Beltway-land. If they settle and have kids they have to move farther out and subject themselves to the torment of commuting. The "beaners" live crammed like sardines in an area of comparatively old, cheap apartments.
Concerning abortion, I do belive in the "Roe Effect" but would like to point out some other hard to quantify factors. As others have noted, conservative families TEND to have more children and conservative (and religious) families TEND to stay together. What we need is to survey high-school valedictorians, SAT top scorers and Phi Beta Kappas and see just how many of them come from stable, two-parent (and coincidentally conservative) families. It's more than raw numbers, I am willing to bet this country's new generation of movers and shakers tend not to come from single moms, broken homes, "blended families" or any other kind of fashionable arrangement liberals profess to love.
And again, I venture to point out this where the Muslims have the advantage, being that in their self-segregated societies, women are not allowed to do anything BUT have kids. Then again, that points out the supreme logic of welfare reform in this country as (unlike Old Europe) we will no longer pay people to have kids on the taxpayer dime. Remember the most important thing about Abu Hamza, the notorious hook-handed, hate-spewing imam of London's infamous Finsbury Park Mosque was that he and his entire family turned out to be living it up on the dole.
Oh, The Horror. The Horror.
So, Big Guy. Criticise the argument. Where is he wrong?
Oh good! A new word, teutonic in its catenated construction. Maybe you, as the Authority on the Constitution, could define in what way Sailer has an aversion to the Constitution, and how such an attitude has paleolithic origins.
If you can't vote them out, breed them out...
Umm, where? Are you saying that merely talking about what illegal immigration has done to Los Angeles and Southern California is racist and xenophobic? Are you a PC cop, here to enforce nothing but good words for the millions who have violated the laws of the United States to get here?
Maybe you could explain yourself, and tell us all why you think illegal immigration is such a wonderful thing, and beyond criticism.
Hated to give you the wrong idea, if you're familiar with my other postings you would know I'm as against illegal immigration as any of you. It's just the obsessive nature of the author's writing that rubbed me the wrong way. I have my doubts that events in those regions have transpired the way they have for the reasons he espouses. The illegals follow the industries that hire them. But banishing illegals and keeping out "low-income" people and anti-development mania get conflated in the author's mind and I think he mixes it all together and puts a nasty gloss on it. It's the PC local governments and their "sanctuary" laws that allow the enemy to concentrate.
"Help, help, I'm being oppressed." :P
"Massachusettss whites are failing to replace themselves, averaging only 1.6 babies per woman, and the states liberal Democrats are probably reproducing even less than that. "
One has to assume that's because lesbians and gays don't typically have a lot of kids.
I hope the GoP and Pres. Bush realize that the hispanic vote (and plenty of illegals voted, don't think they didn't- 8 of the 9/11 hijackers were registered to vote according to Rep. Hayworth) did not win this election, poor whites did.
From an earlier post:
I live in Northern California and I can tell you that his analysis of the difference in what happened between Northern and Southern California is quite accurate. It is still happening: in Santa Cruz county, the citizens just voted down a measure to widen Highway 1, which would help mitigate the massive jams we have now.
Why? Because they rightly perceive that improving the infrastructure will only invite more people to move here, regardless of race or nationality, and the problem will only return. So they figure that they'll live with the current catastrophe, and not give it a chance to get worse.
I disagree: I think if the immigration laws had been enforced, we could widen our roads without having to worry that another million Mexicans will appear overnight to set up camp. It's their way of having their cake and eating it too: they don't overtly condemn Mexican illegal immigration, they just erect unseen barriers like lack of infrastructure, zoning density laws, housing permit requirements which are impossible to meet, etc. which drive up prices and make it difficult for unskilled laborers to move in. Sidenote: it won't work in the long run, because eventually, ethnic agitators and other Democrats will agitate for required low income housing in developments (as just happened in Sacramento County), or outright "public" housing projects to house the illegals (which is already the case in majority Mexican parts of Santa Cruz and Monterey County, i.e., Watsonville and Salinas).
He's simply pointing out that that in Los Angeles, it didn't happen that way. LA simply kept building out, with illegals congregating in the urban core and whites (and blacks, interestingly enough) simply moving to the periphery or out of state alltogether. And the theory is that LA did not have the same "no-growth" attitude, and what it looks like now is the result of that. It may not be the only reason (industries willing to hire unskilled, illegal alien workers being another, as you point out), but it certainly is one of the reasons, and a big one at that.
Oh no, quick call Kofi Annan!
This article is dead on the money. One of the best political analyses I've seen this year.
So I'm a liberal because I'm not a racist? Or is it because I'm not a Buchananite protectionist? You know, I'd have some interest in discussing the merits of the article with you - and it has its merits as well as its faults - if I thought you were capable of something more than name-calling, but you're clearly not. Take some advice from Dick Cheney and go f*** yourself, racist.
That line stuck out at me too. Why is it that many writers these days (on all sides) like to pepper their commentary with wild overstatements?
Honestly, the author lost a bit of cred with me with that line. And cred is something a writer can not afford to lose, you know?
What about hispanic and black babies. I hazard that the hispanic baby production is way way above white baby production.
So now you have delusions of grandeur? You're really channeling the Vice-President? How laughable.
Like I said, liberal, you're the only one who interpreted the article that way. And the reason is because you simply react to any mention of immigration or caucasians with the standard liberal theology, which is that both of those subjects cannot be discussed except under the two assumptions: Immigration good, caucasians bad.
That's the dominant leftist orthodoxy, and you're so deep in it, you ain't never coming back. Must've been that public school "education", right?
And the little swear words are sooooo scary. You musta made the keys bounce.
ProLife Ping!
If anyone wants on or off my ProLife Ping List, please notify me here or by freepmail.
Shouldn't you be citing Morris Dees and the Southern Poverty Law Center when you're using their material?
A little anecdotal evideince: My wife and I are currently at 2.9 children (#3 is due any day now) and both of us voted for Bush.
Great graphic! Thanks!
I'm no liberal, and I agree with a lot of criticism of the black community that would get me in a heep of trouble with race baiters, but I'm pretty sure that articles from Vdare are banned on this site due to their attitudes on race.
You're welcome!
Um, so? This forum bans a lot of things for reasons I don't agree with.
Criticise what Sailer has said here. And if you really want to live dangerously, you could - gasp! - go read VDARE yourself. Then come back and tell us if you agree, disagree, or just don't care.
Do you just ignore something that someone says based on a third party rule like FreeRepublic "banning" them? Are you that narrow minded? Hell, I read La Raza's crap and even MEChA's seditionist tripe. Are you afraid your mind might be poisoned by un-approved ideas?
What a leftist notion. How paranoid.
And of course, you haven't got any other arguments other than your favorite leftist catch words.
By the way, I would say that you with a lot of racists: Iowa is 95% non-Hispanic white?! Where oh Where are the minorities???
You know, with a population of 2.9 million in all of Iowa, there are more illegal aliens in the LA basin then there are people in all of Iowa. I mean, California has 36 million people of whom less than half are "white", and headed for about 1/3 in the next 10 years. But you got the gall to sit there in WhiteLandia and call other people racists? Move to Wilmington or South Gate for a few years, podunk. Then come out and call the rest of us names. Have you ever even met someone who isn't caucasian?
Y'all racists in Iowa are really horrifying people. You must have ethnically cleansed all the non-WASPs from the state. How could you? Aren't you ashamed?
Laughing REALLY out loud!!
Thanks. That one says it all. Saves me a big long winded post.
That's exactly who these jerks are on this thread. The race baiters and finger pointers from the SPLC.
But do remember that if there were no available abortion, people might change their mating habits. Babies that might be conceived with the safety net of available killing might not be conceived if it weren't there.
White is an ethnicity? Since when? The left has utterly destroyed the language when skin color has become the definition of ethnicity or even the more insidious "race".
If I thought I owed you any explanation or defense of myself, I'd give it. I don't. I think it's best for everyone and best for FR if we let this little flame war die; you'll not receive another response from me.
Among other statistics in the report:
-- Births to unmarried mothers rose slightly.
-- Women of Hispanic origin had the highest birth rate, 96.9 per 1,000 women, compared to the overall rate of 66.1. (remember, this overall rate has the low white birthrate figured in)
Interesting angle *Bump!*
Oh no, really? Say it isn't so. I so want to hear from y'all Prairie Socialists up there where it's so ethnically....homogeneous. Must be difficult for you to live there, what with being so ethnophobic and xenophilic.
Ta ta, Rainbow Boy, and just remember: Sailer pointed out the obvious here. The Republican party's core supporters are Anglo's who hold traditional values. White Democrats are dying out as a group because they practice democide, something that no rational group does. And the corollary conclusion is this: if it weren't for Third World immigration, the Democrats would already have disappeared.
"White liberals, angered by white conservatives lack of racial solidarity with them"
nope, this Redneck's got no time fer no sodom-narity with them elitist white fancy folks. Me 'n' Clarence Thomas is goin' duck huntin'
Even that is inaccurate. What about the potential children of those aborted children?
Eisenhower had a very prudent operation wetback...
Not sure where you're going here... I posted that quote as an example of the policy positions of the American Conservative. It was not necessarily a slam on every point in the quote; just wanted to point out their slap at President Bush's foreign policy (not just immigration). What was "operation wetback"? (sorry, I'm only 29...)
I was merely adding to what you said, neither agreeing or disagreeing. "Operation Wetback" was the return of illegal immigrants to Mexico. It was very successful, if success is measured by deportees and enforcing the law.
Got it...thanks for the clarification. I hadn't heard of Operation Wetback; not at all a bad idea, although the name probably wouldn't fly today :)

One of the many advantages to a human hair wig is that you can color it. While you can always go for another natural color, fun colors are currently trending on Hollywood celebrities and in hair salons all over. But if you don't want the commitment of coloring your own hair, you can get a human hair wig and color it how you like without worry. Also, this will protect your own hair from the damage that can be caused by color chemicals.
Vivian, a Wigs.com client and professional hair stylist, shared with us her how-to guide to give a human hair wig a fun color. Vivian actually has her own beautiful hair and doesn't experience hair loss, but she loves wearing wigs for fun and decided to use her skills to try out a new look. She started with Cascade by Ellen Wille in color Light Champagne Rooted.
These are the steps to give your human hair wig a fun color:
Step 1 - Apply fashion color of choice all over the hair in a bowl or the sink. Make sure to saturate the hair completely and then allow the appropriate processing time. Follow instructions provided by the coloring product you used.
Step 2 - Rinse and wash the hair with shampoo and conditioner. We recommend the Pure Care System by BeautiMark.
Step 3 - Let air dry and brush lightly. We recommend the Hair Trix Comb by BeautiMark.
Step 4 - Style as desired once hair is fully dry with heat tools.
Vivian also wanted to give her hair a rooted look. These are the additional steps if you'd like to do the same.
Step 5 - Part hair as desired and apply brown or black mascara to create a grown-out, natural look to the top and edges of hair.
Step 6 - Tweeze very carefully a small amount of hair where the natural part will fall as desired.
Step 7 - Apply color matched to skin face powder on part line to blend and create a natural look of the scalp.
The before and after photos of the wig really show how much fun you can have with color. Just look at the difference!

Best experience in St. LuciaPosted Jul 25, 2016
This resort is absolutely amazing! The view of the Pitons is breathtaking. You really connect with nature and its beauty! An all open concept really maximizes the over all experience. Yes there are bugs, but it doesn't take away from the amazing experience. The staff one of a kind!!!! As I left the owner hugged me. She was so welcoming!

Perfect romantic getaway nestled b/w the PitonsPosted Jul 25, 2016
Pros: Location, views, rooms, service and food quality.
Cons: The food prices are high and then throw in the 10% VAT tax and 10% service gratuity on top of that (in line with others). As are the drink prices.
Location: Sulfur Springs, Sugar Beach, Jungle biking, chocolate tours, climbing Gros Piton, zip lines (may be worth shuttling on the other side of the island).
Great location nestled between Gros and Petit Piton. Great meals and excellent staff and service. Across the street from another great restaurant, Boucan at Hotel Chocolate. And a complimentary shuttle close to one of the best beaches on the island, Sugar Beach. Close to the town of Soufriere, but not a great location to visit or hang out, but driving through is fine. They do have a local grocery store though. I will say that we visited Jade Mountain, Anse Chastanet, Stone Field Estate and Sugar Beach Resort and were frankly unimpressed with Jade (i realize their marketing and PR makes you think otherwise, but sharing a resort and amenities with Anse is not that appealing for the price). Sugar Beach is impressive, but rather pricey and a bit stuffy, although worth a dinner by the beach and beach time. Ladera is the best value, experience and romantic getaway. The staff is impressive and will do the right thing no matter what. We would stay at Ladera again regardless of what you read about the bugs, etc. It is part of the romantic experience with views of Petit and Gros that blow your mind and pictures won't even be able to describe how gorgeous it is. The government runs the hikes up Gros Piton, but well worth it. If you are adventurous and in good shape, hire a guide to take you up Petit Piton (find Cameron Vauroque). The start is hard to find and safety should be your top priority with many ropes to get to the top.

Eyebrows: 5 Things Men Should Know
If the development and use of Botox has contributed anything to society, it's that the paralyzing and toxic beauty aid served as an effective reminder of just how important eyebrows are when communicating. When you can't move them, your face is jammed in first gear — like you're constantly reacting to a surprise party. Indeed, one of many things you likely didn't know about eyebrows is that by simply freezing them, we effectively wipe out the intricate expressiveness of the human face.
It's a bit unsettling to consider, but it helps to illustrate the extraordinary role of the eyebrows in our culture. Not only do they accent the face and contribute to attractiveness, they also convey a wealth of emotional expression, and, at one time in our development, they likely provided visual clues of sexual dimorphism to others at a distance (big brow, man; little brow, woman).
For all that our eyebrows do for us, we guys tend to do very little for them. So, let's take a moment and honor the eyebrows with five things men should know about them.
1- The average eyebrow has 500 hairsThe first thing to know about eyebrows is that most men don't likely have any extras other than the two God gave them, so take heed when it comes to shaping and grooming them.
Not only do most brows feature fewer hairs per square inch than what's found on the head, they also tend to grow back twice as slowly. The lesson here is that any decision made to manscape your eyebrows should come on the heels of plenty of consideration, because you'll have to live with the consequences longer than you might expect.
2- Fashionable eyebrows were once made from mouse skinThe look isn't as hideous as it sounds. In fact, if contemporary portraits of the colonial elite in America near the end of the 18th century are any indication, the gray mouse skin looks fairly normal, if not slightly bushy by our standards.
In The Eyebrow, authors Robyn Cosio and Cynthia Robins trace the evolution of the eyebrow as a target of beauty and fashion in both men and women back to the earliest-known civilizations. It's clear that, while we may celebrate the eyes as the most beautiful facial feature, it is in fact the brow that is the object of that attention and the area where alterations can bring about the most dramatic change in one's looks.
3- Eyebrows are more vital to facial recognition than eyesAnother thing men should know about eyebrows is that they, not the eyes, are the more likely mirrors into the soul.
In one of the only studies of its kind, researchers from MIT sought to determine whether the eyes or the eyebrows, when omitted from familiar faces, would cause more recognition problems. Not surprising, when, considering the topic of this piece, subjects had significantly more trouble identifying familiar faces when they were presented without eyebrows.
The final things men should know about eyebrows next...

I want to reduce the chances of IP theft. I'm currently using subversion for version management.
Additional info: we use that standard LAMP stack with some custom CRON scripts. Would love to figure out a way to compartmentalize the system.

I don't know what fans see in NFL training camps. I don't get the attraction, and that goes double for the hard-core fans who can't stand to miss even the smallest tidbit about the lowest-round draft pick.
It's not an indictment; look, it's the most popular thing going, no matter the season. The NFL is king, and since everybody agrees, that makes it right. ESPN The Television could run "The Best of Clayton and Salisbury" on endless loop for a week straight and probably get better ratings than it does for just about anything else.
Jim Rogash/Getty Images
Based on everything we've read about the Pats, we conclude that Adalius Thomas is omnipresent.
Since I'm clearly the outcast here -- as proof, the Colts-Cowboys preseason game last week drew better TV ratings than Barry Bonds' 756th homer -- I decided to consume as much as I could about one team in one day. On Monday, I randomly decided to be a Patriots fanatic and read as much as I could about the team to see what I'm missing by ignoring most of the who-got-the-most-snaps-in-practice coverage of one NFL training camp.
On the Boston Globe Web site, I read an informative transcript of a news conference with defensive coordinator Dean Pees. From him I learn that newcomer Adalius Thomas, he of the many positions while with the Ravens, is considered a natural inside linebacker by the Patriots because Pees is trying to get the best guys on the field in the best positions. He says something about Mike Vrabel and the MIKE linebacker system here, too, but I'm already losing interest. Brandon Meriweather is versatile, too.
Some guys aren't here, such as Asante Samuel, but Pees can only prepare the guys he has. Sounds fair. If I truly did live and die with the Patriots, I would not call for Pees' firing based on that statement.
The depth on the defensive line is a worry, though, and this I can understand. A little more than three weeks 'til the opener. However, defensive end Jarvis Green is attempting to talk me off the ledge through the Globe: "We still have time -- it's the first week of the preseason, the third week of training camp." I think this guy's my favorite player.
There's something in here from Bill Belichick that might set a record for most words saying nothing, though, and it makes me appreciate my man Jarvis even more. About Meriweather's performance in the first preseason game last Friday, Belichick said, "I think Brandon would fall into that category of there were some things that were good and other things he did he could have done better, and he needs to learn from them and improve the next time out."
Man. That's enough to make a guy an Eagles fan.
From the Boston Herald, I get perspective. I also get a second-by-second rundown of practice, which is something I didn't know I needed. Until now, of course.
Albert Breer writes, "QB Tom Brady walked away from the offense midway through practice and camped with a trainer by the South end zone to get his arm rubbed down."
At this point, I'm worried, but Breer continues by writing, "Not to worry, though, Brady quickly came back and, if anything, was too strong on his throws to follow."
Then there's nearly hallucinogenic stuff about deep outs and Jabar Gaffney lunging and someone named Gemara Williams before I am rousted by a question:
"What does it all mean?"
This is why I come here, oh master.
Here's what:
"The Patriots are serious about managing Brady's right arm, just like the Colts are cautious at times with Peyton Manning."
That's good. Solid management. Protect your investment and all that. Just don't let him get too strong too often, OK, or I might have to call in to a talk show and yell a little bit.
When I get to Patriots.com, I think I've found the ultimate site. The team sites are absolute gold mines of pure, unadulterated football information for the true football fan. They record the minutiae -- sorry, the essentials -- of every single snap at every single practice.
Wrap your football-hungry mind around this recap of Sunday's nonpad workout:
"Players not in attendance were David Thomas and Asante Samuel. Since it was a walkthrough, players on PUP were allowed to be present. Richard Seymour, Troy Brown, Chad Jackson, Eddie Jackson, Kyle Brady, Benjamin Watson, Billy Yates and Randy Moss were on the field. Moss and Brady jogged through some drills but none of the players did anything too excruciating."
Now I'm getting into it. I can smell the sweat and feel the importance of every move. I think I might be inside the huddle. I read on.
"At the start of practice, Kyle Brady and Benjamin Watson were playing catch, only with a twist. The two tight ends were tossing the ball back and forth one-handed. They had a good rhythm going until Watson eventually let one hit the ground."
Does it get any better than that? This is what I've been missing? No wonder people paint their faces for preseason games.
Now I'm down in the miscellaneous notes section, where I learn the following:
"During a break in the action, (Tom) Brady was standing with his receivers talking shop."
Pinch me. I feel like I'm there.
This Week's Really Short List
• Watching a few of the Giants' telecasts since Bonds' record-breaking homer, I think I've picked their signs: If there's a slight lull in the action, someone in the truck says, "Hey, how about we show that homer again?" and then they show that homer again.
• Apparently it's true -- dogs are a man's best friend: Michael Vick's final two co-defendants have decided to cop pleas and help the prosecution nail Vick.
• Remember, folks, at this point it's still a small sample size: Eric Gagne, getting lit up.
• And he'll always remember that time Elton John taught him how to stay back on the changeup: When someone asked Bonds to name his greatest influences growing up, he didn't name a family member or a coach or a teacher, but he did mention Muhammad Ali, Magic Johnson and Michael Jordan.
• They had to listen to a 45-minute speech about the inherent goodness of Terrell Owens, but in the end they got their information: Since it's Jets team policy not to reveal injury information, reporters for the New York Daily News got the scoop on running back Thomas Jones' calf injury from his agent, Drew Rosenhaus.
• Geez, did he think Mike Gravel was too much a front-runner? The Fox sports Web site reported that Bud Selig has donated $4,600 to Christopher Dodd's presidential campaign.
• And finally, not to go all Ingmar Bergman on the TNA, but if you wanted to perpetuate the conspiracy theory most often put forth by the victim, wouldn't you reverse the roles? Pacman Jones appeared at a wrestling show Monday night, and he entered the ring surrounded by police officers/actors who were allegedly there to make sure he didn't get attacked.

There are all sorts of things that qualify as "cruel and unusual punishment."
Watching "The Ellen DeGeneres Show."
Waiting in line at the convenience store behind a gambling degenerate trying to conduct a business transaction with $2 lottery winnings, a time-consuming act that flies in the face of the "convenience" store concept.
Speaking from personal experience and the disciplinary methods of a grandmother with little patience for foul-mouthed children, Irish Spring does have a rather lively spearmint-like taste once you get used to it.
As horrible as these things are, none of them fits the constitutional definition of "cruel and unusual punishment." By reasonable standards - in other words, standards that do not meet the agenda of capital punishment opponents - neither does lethal injection.
Lethal injection is the method by which the state of Texas executes its most heinous criminals, a method identical to that of Kentucky.
Since the U.S. Supreme Court has agreed to review whether Kentucky's lethal injection method constitutes "cruel and unusual punishment," that has also put Texas on hold.
According to the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Potter County has five convicted offenders on death row, while Randall County has two. None of these unmagnificent seven has a scheduled execution date before February 2008.
However, now that the Supremes will comb the U.S. Constitution trying to determine whether a convicted criminal can feel pain from a lethal dose of chemicals while being rendered unconscious from another dose of chemicals 10 times the amount used in surgical procedures, several convicted murderers/rapists have a new lease on life.
Randall Sims, 47th district attorney, said the fate of one death row offender out of Potter County has been affected.
Larry Donell Davis is on death row for a 1995 Amarillo murder. Davis, in order to help a friend earn a "tear drop" from the Crips, participated in a fatal stabbing - with knives and an ice pick. The victim was also beaten with a pipe and numerous items were stolen from the residence, including a camcorder and a stereo.
"Austin asked us to hold off on setting any death dates until the (Kentucky) case is decided," Sims said. "As far as our day-to-day business, we're not changing anything."
Randall County has two on death row: Brent Ray Brewer, who was convicted of stabbing an Amarillo business owner to death in 1990 after the man offered him a ride to the Salvation Army; and Brittany Holberg, who was convicted of fatally stabbing an 80-year-old Amarillo man in 1996. The victim was stabbed nearly 60 times and had a lamp pole shoved down his throat.
"I will be amazed if they can find some voodoo expert who can convince the United States Supreme Court that this is grounds to do away with the current combination of drugs that is being used," said Randall County District Attorney James Farren.
The over/under on the Supreme decision is one. That means the ruling, whenever it comes down, will be 5-4, probably in favor of the current form of lethal injection.
Death penalty opponents will have to conjure up some other moronic loophole to do away with capital punishment, which is the real goal.
You don't say
Opinions others won't give: Guymon, Okla., Police Chief Michael Bab said this week that about half of the city's population consists of illegal immigrants. That's an astounding number, and one that shows the many problems with illegal immigration. Guymon's population in 2000 was 10,472. Its estimated population in July 2006 was 10,696. That means there are an estimated 5,348 illegal immigrants in Guymon. That is amazing. When immigration laws are routinely ignored, which has been the case for years, this is what you get.
A pat on the back ....
To Hardee's: The fast food restaurant unveiled its "Country Breakfast Burrito" this week, a 920-calorie, 60-fat gram belt-buster. The morning news shows gorged themselves on the story Wednesday, with one early morning talking head saying: "This is serious stuff." No more serious than going to the grocery store, buying five boxes of cookies and eating them for breakfast, which consumers can do just as easily as wolfing down a big butt burrito. The fat-wallet lawsuits are probably coming, but at least one business is willing to stick out its tongue - if it has room to do so while gnawing on this titanic tortilla - at overweight political correctness.
and a kick in the pants.
To those who want a vote on the TIRZ in Potter County: Assistant County Attorney Dave Kemp said Wednesday that the county cannot "under any circumstances" put the TIRZ proposal on the county ballot. "In my opinion, we can't do an election on this at all," Kemp said. At least two commissioners favor letting voters determine whether the county will participate in the TIRZ, which is the best idea to redevelop downtown Amarillo in years. Even if the county could legally put the issue on the ballot, didn't the public hearings on the TIRZ - held in each precinct - give commissioners some idea of public support?

Got that right.
Thread: Git
Wearing this today on a hot day in the midwest.
Sometimes I take GIT for granted and don't reach for it. Haven't worn it for 6 months. But when I do wear it I realize how truly amazing this scent is and how it fits so many occasions.
One of the best ever!
Got that right.
In my opinion, a superbly light yet persistent fragrance, very versatile for any season and/or temperature.
My top 2 are Aventus and GIT, year round...
Wore this the other day.. and received a compliment about 8 hours after application This really works great in the heat.. but until the other day, I never realized how musky the dry down is.
My Ultimate Top 5:
Fahrenheit (1988)
A*Men Ultra Zest (2015)
Burberry London (2006)
Eau des Baux (2006)
Arpege pour Homme (2005)

Agreed! Great stuff. I really adore this scent.
You have to be okay with dihydromyrcenol to like this one. Sadly, I'm not.
A true classic IMO.
Remember that while it is perfectly acceptable to criticize the content of a post - criticizing the poster is not.
Mean spirited, nasty, snide, sarcastic, hateful, and rude individuals on Basenotes don't warrant or deserve my or other Basenoters' acknowledgement or respect.
One of the best of all time

Happy Hubs
- Familiarity: I gave it as a gift but have feedback to share
- Fit: True to size
Having worn my current pair of Rainbows for the past 11 years, it was a no brainer to get a pair for my dude after the dogs ate his last flip-flops. His first words when he put them on were simply "Wow, these feel good."
Typically, he wears a 10.5 so I ordered size large... I was a little worried they'd be snug, but they fit perfectly. His toes have a smidge of wiggle room, but his heel is millimeters from the back edge. What's impressive is that he has solid support for his whole foot. He has a high arch, and at first expected the flat footbed to be uncomfortable. Instead, he's worn them nonstop and found them to be plenty supportive. Epic wife win.
very comfy, takes a while to break in
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
- Fit: True to size
took about a week of wearing while sitting in front of the TV only, to break in. Did 2 hour stints for the first week, while repeatedly watering down the leather straps + nylon toe-part to allow it to fit to my feet. after the first week, they fit well enough to walk around town with - and expected break-in soreness still. After 1 week of couch breakin + 1 week of around-town breakin, they are fully all-day comfortable and no issues. love the feel of them.
Six Years, One Pair
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: True to size
I bought my first pair Rainbows six years ago, and I'm just replacing them today. And it's not like they're buried in the back of my closet, only to be worn a few times a month, these are my go-to in warm weather--if it's dry and above freezing outside, I'm probably wearing my 'Bows. These bad boys lasted longer than three different jobs, they've seen sandy ocean beaches, high mountain trails, lakes, rivers, parking lots, shopping malls, fancy parties, not-so-fancy parties, and the birth of my one of my children. Never once in the past six year have I wanted another pair of sandals. I literally wore them until they fell apart.
Now, let's be honest, the break-in period is a b*tch. I still have scars on the top both feet to prove it. But, once you get past the break-in (I would suggest not wearing them on a six-mile walk on day one) they're the most comfortable, form fitting shoe I've ever worn.
When my new pair arrived the other day, I had multiple co-workers comment that I bought the same pair of sandals that I already owned. Of course I did! Why would I ever change?
For the win!
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
- Fit: True to size
- Size Bought: M
I got the women's version with the wide strap originally, and hated the stack height on them. I felt like they were platforms!
I thought I'd give the men's a whirl. I checked the sizing chart to see what my size would covert to into men's. I went from the XL in women's to a M in men's perfectly! Love them! Can't wait to wear them in so I can get a comfy footprint groove!
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: True to size
On my 3rd pair. I will never buy a different flip flop. I get about 1-2 years out of each pair, and living in the south I use these at least 8 months out of the year.
Overall my favorite shoe, even across every shoe category. I usually buy a size smaller than what I normally wear, after a month or so these begin to mold to your foot and stretch out a bit.
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: True to size
This has been my 3rd pair of Rainbows and I love them. They slowly mold to your feet and the thick leather strap makes them very comfortable. They are a little stiff at first but the more you wear them the better they get!
Any good Flip-Flop takes time
At first these flip flops were tearing my feet apart, but after getting them a little wet while washing my car and wearing them all that day they loosened up and now i wear them all day everyday. Great buy, and worth the money.
This sandals deserves 6 stars
I bough my first pair of 301s in 2009 and they just died. Not due to wear and tear , or high mileage, but an unsupervised puppy. There is a little break in period, but once they are good to go, they will be your go to footwear everyday. They look good enough to wear on a date, but still functional and comfy for everyday use. I got my original pair wet, muddy, bloody, beer soaked, and they carried me everywhere i needed to without fail. Even with holes in the heel of both soles I could not bear to replace them, even when my lady bought me a new sandal ( not a Rainbow). High mileage and happy feet!
Love these
This is my 3rd pair and I love them! Just add a little sun and sand and they'll be perfect
Most Comfortable
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
The first few times I wore these the strap was too tight and they were not very comfortable. However, I had heard that they become the best, most comfortable flip flops once they're broken in so I wore them all day at an amusement park. That is about how long it took for them to break in and now I stand by them as the most comfortable. I prefer them over any of my other shoes.

Where to Shoot Tanks
Where exactly do you have to shoot tanks to one hit disable them from the front? I know it's possible because it happens regularly, whether it's to me driving or someone in my squad. Even with reactive armor, I have been disabled in one hit from a tank. It's been on maps with only one tank on each team, so I know I'm not getting hit by two tanks. In BF2, I know there was a one hit kill on tanks if you shot it at the right angle under its turret. Does this happen in BF3 as well? I have tried this in empty servers with friends, but it hasn't worked.
shoot the tanks ass.
its very rare to get one hit disabled from the front. it can happen though, but only if you are boosting. it will never happen if you arent boosting. if you are approaching an area where you know there are other tanks around, just dont take the chance. dont boost and this wont be an issue.
You can also get a one hit disable if you hit the 120 mm gun. It is a very small area to hit but it does disable in one shot. If you search the youtube there are a few videos on it, unless it was patched. But likely you are being disabled the way Mr Murda described.
Yeah, the game's physics engine is really wonky. If you hit a tank in the front that is moving very quickly, it seems to actually detonate in the rear. Or perhaps it's trying to simulate the effect of two fast movie objects colliding. I don't know, but what Murda said is correct.
Drew, as well, it seems that hitting the tanks mantle or main gun can also cause one hit disables.
sometimes my guided shell does one hit disable.
The armour is weakest on the top. Get above it, and two SMAW hits will destroy from above.

2001-2005 BMW 330i Brake Rotor - Zimmermann Coated W0133-1610366
Product Description
BMW 330i vehicles from 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, and 2005 may use this brake rotor from Zimmermann Coated. The brake rotors are installed on wheel with disc brake systems to stop the wheel spinning. Usually brake rotors will need to be changed if the metal they are made of thins, but warping or pitting are also reasons to change the brake rotors. Such damage occurs from the heat created by the brake pads closing around the rotors. This brake rotor is sized to fit on one of the front wheels of a BMW 330i vehicle from 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, or 2005. Two rotors are recommended for replacing both front brake rotors at once.

An analytical approach based on a two-dimensional electromagnetic field analysis in polar coordinates is developed to predict the commutation losses in a permanent magnet brushless dc (PMBD) motor. These losses are essentially the eddy-current losses induced in the PMBD motor's rotor magnets and core and are caused by the rotor sweeping of the stationary stator magnetic field before each current commutation due to inverter switching takes place. The approach is applicable to motor constructions with either magnet segments or a magnet ring and able to deal with ill-conditioned cases. The model was applied to an existing motor and good agreement (within 11%) with the finite element method was achieved

Is there any way to exclude items from Time Machine when it's set up on a computer being managed with Workgroup Manager/Open Directory?
We have some Macs set up with Open Directory and have used Workgroup Manager to tell them to make Time Machine backups on our file server, which works fine. The problem is that this greys out the Time Machine section of System Preferences, preventing the options screen and hence the list of exclusions from being accessed. Is there any way to set some exclusions (either with Workgroup Manager or on the individual machines) without turning off management in Time Machine which requires that every Mac be set up individually?
I'm not sure if this is best posted here or Server Fault - I posted here because there seem to be more Mac people around, but if a moderator disagrees please transfer it.

International Avenue, Calgary
|This article does not cite any sources. (December 2009) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
Aerial view of International Avenue
|Calgary, Alberta
International Avenue is a Business Revitalization Zone (BRZ) in Calgary, Alberta. The district is centered on 17th Avenue S.E. in the neighbourhood of Forest Lawn in the east of the city. The district was created in 1993 to celebrate the rich cultural diversity that exists in east central Calgary. The area has since become a popular location for ethnic restaurants and shopping.
The BRZ was also established to help revitalize the former town of Forest Lawn, which was annexed by the city in 1961. The neighbourhood has long had a reputation for being a haven for crime and drugs. In recent years, however, the area has been recognized for its multi-culturalism and has been slowly developing into a major destination for both Calgary residents and tourists. The city and the BRZ are currently in the process of implementing new urban design and redevelopment initiatives.
Since 2003, International Avenue has played host to Calgary's large multi-cultural event, GlobalFest. GlobalFest combines both a celebration of diversity known as OneWorld Festival and an International Fireworks Festival at Elliston Park. The event takes place annually in late August. The 2009 Festival took place August 21-29 at Elliston Park.
