Comments about Japonesque Eyelashes, Slant Volume, Black, 1 ea:
I've never been compelled to write a review for false lashes until now. I personally wear them daily and have tried and failed application many times until I found a method that works for me. These particular lashes are from a company that I associate with makeup brushes. Like the brushes, the lashes themselves are soft and visually appealing. I have not worn these yet, but I am hoping that with care I will be able to wear them more than once. They do appear to be delicate, so I wouldn't recommend these for first time users unless they have someone who can help with application. The glue is included, which is convenient. Even if you don't wear false lashes on a regular basis, these are perfect for date night.
- Skin Tone:
- Fair
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Signal to Noise (novel)
- This article is about the Eric Nylund novel, for the graphic novel Signal to Noise, see Signal to Noise (comics).
|It has been suggested that A Signal Shattered be merged into this article. (Discuss) Proposed since November 2015.
|Eric S. Nylund

Signal to Noise is a 1998 cyberpunk novel by Eric S. Nylund. It is the first half of a duology, the second half being A Signal Shattered.
Plot summary[edit]
The novel follows Jack Potter, a computer cryptographer tenured at the fictional Academe of Pure and Applied Sciences in Santa Sierra, California (a city assembled from the ruins of San Francisco.) The story details Jack's first encounter with an alien calling himself Wheeler who apparently wishes to trade information with humanity.
Accompanied (for a while) by "gene witch" Zero al Qaseem and data paleontologist Isabel Mirabeau, Jack establishes a corporation based around one of the technologies he was traded by Wheeler, but soon finds that there may be more to his dealings with the alien than he bargained for. Traitorous alliances, deceitful propaganda, and shady business practices are frequent elements of the novel.
A technology utilized throughout the novel is the idea of "bubbles", a self-contained holographic chamber that a person may interface with and, if augmented with the proper neural equipment, use to connect to a network resembling an extremely advanced World Wide Web. Using a bubble's interface, a person can manipulate a super-immersive graphical simulation, drawing on their thoughts and subconscious hunches to create metaphorical situations which aid greatly in communication with others. However, unlike similar holographic technology (such as Star Trek's holodeck), there is no A.I. to be seen; all avatars inside the bubble's simulation are either users or metaphors created by users.

Trial Lawyer
Though you will never have as much power as a judge, there is certainly a lot of power to be had as a trial attorney. Your clients trust you as the best possible person to take the facts of their case and present them to a judge or jury. And they trust that you will receive a good outcome for them. So yeah, they are giving you a lot of power. In civil law cases, there can be A LOT of money at stake. And even when there is not a lot of scrilla at issue, people who are suing are usually highly emotional. And you are the person they trust to make it right. And if you are dealing with a criminal case….yeesh, forget it. If you are a prosecutor, you are typically trying to take away someone's freedom. And if you're a defense attorney, you are typically trying to protect someone's freedom. So yeah, you're definitely like the sixth Power Ranger. Or at least like the fifth Beatle.

BPF warns that tougher planning threshold could encourage bad practice
Published by Anonymous for 24dash.com in Housing
UK housebuilding 'sinks to Second World War levels'
The British Property Federation (BPF) has warned that a proposal to increase the threshold for putting local authorities into special measures could produce "perverse incentives" and lead to adverse consequences for the planning system.
Proposals from the DCLG in its 'Planning Performance and Planning Contributions' consultation which closed on Sunday suggest that the threshold for 'designation' should be raised to 40% or fewer decisions made on time, up from 30%.
Currently, local authorities who do not reach this limit of approvals are placed into special measures, whereby developers are allowed to bypass the local authority and submit applications directly to the planning inspectorate.
The BPF said: "While the commitment to speeding up the planning system is welcome, the BPF is concerned that this approach will hinder the performance of underperforming authorities even further."
In its response to the consultation the BPF recommended a 'yellow card system' to act as a warning for underperforming local authorities. This would "provide them with a grace period in which to improve performance before being placed into special measures".
It notes that other unforeseen consequences which could arise as a result of increasing the threshold could include the withdrawal and resubmission of applications when changes need to be made, more protracted pre-application periods and damaging relationships between developers and local authorities.
Liz Peace, chief executive of the British Property Federation, said: "As shown by recent research from the Centre for Housing and Planning Research at Cambridge University, pressure to meet planning performance targets has forced some local authorities to ask developers to re-submit applications when decisions have not been made in time. It is clear that introducing harsher deadlines does not encourage best practice, so we would encourage the government to consider introducing a 'warning' system as an intermediary.
"Further to this we recommend that government focuses on the lack of resources and skills that is currently hampering so many planning departments. Dealing with these problems would have much more positive impact on the speed and quality of planning decisions without the need for sanctions."

Greater Greer Chamber of Commerce names Owens new president, CEO
Published: Thursday, July 17, 2014 at 1:59 p.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, July 17, 2014 at 1:59 p.m.
The Greater Greer Chamber of Commerce on Thursday named Mark Owens as its new president and CEO.
Owens, who previously served as the Greer Chamber's vice president, will replace Allen Smith, who was hired as president and CEO of the Spartanburg Area Chamber of Commerce last month.
"I'm ready to help take Greer to the next level," Owens said.
He said Greer is about halfway through the first year of a three-year strategic plan, aiming for the chamber to be a leader in legislative affairs and advocacy to keep chamber members informed.
Owens said he hopes the relationship between businesses and the Greer community continues to grow. He thanked the chamber staff and the community for the area's economic success.
"The workforce is a huge reason we're successful," he said. "It's a team effort here, and we're excited about the future."
Ken Harper, chairman of the Greer Chamber, said in a statement that the chamber board is looking forward to working with Owens.
"It has been a pleasure to watch Mark mature and make numerous contributions to the Greer community over the past several years, and we find it fulfilling to now see him so well-positioned to now assume this leadership role at the Greater Greer Chamber of Commerce," Harper said in a statement. "On behalf of the board of directors and the Greer business community, we congratulate him and wish him well."
Owens is a 2007 graduate of Presbyterian College and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce Institute for Organizational Management. He also serves as a board member for the Carolinas Association of Chamber of Commerce Executives and is a member of the 2012 Carolinas Chamber of the Year.
Owens lives in Greer with his wife, Melody.

Politics, identity, lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, LGBT, GLBT
The vast, fleshy diversity of human gender identity and sexual expression is certainly amazing, and so is the human ability to create ever-longer acronyms. Thus have we arrived at the construction LGBTSTGNC, the most extended variant yet on the already sprawling sexual identity descriptor LGBT.
Some of us were just getting used to the interchangeability of LGBT and GLBT, depending on whether you were talking to gays or lesbians, and to the occasional tacked-on Q to reclaim the beloved "queer." But this LGBTSTGNC thing has us confronting a whole new level of acronym intimidation.
LGBTSTGNC refers to lesbian, gay, bisexual, two spirit, transgender, and gender-nonconforming people, according to an article in Left Turn magazine's April-May issue (original article available here). The odd thing is, the piece refers to "LGBTSTGNC people of color" without taking the whole enterprise to its logical conclusion:
Don't they mean LGBTSTGNCPOCs?

"If you pick up a starving dog and make him prosperous, he will not bite you; that is the principal difference between a dog and a man.Today, I was forwarded one of those humor emails that we all get from our friends. Today, though, I read it because it was about dogs, and dogs are cute; meaning I hoped the email would also be cute. I wasn't terribly disappointed, but there were a couple of great quotes in there that I thought might be worth posting here. Here they are in my order of preference:
-Mark Twain "
-Mark Twain "
Women and cats will do as they please, and men and dogs should relax and get used to the idea.
-Robert A. Heinlein
If you pick up a starving dog and make him prosperous, he will not bite you; that is the principal difference between a dog and a man.
-Mark Twain
If you think dogs can't count, try putting three dog biscuits in your pocket and then give him only two of them.
-Phil Pastoret
Dogs love their friends and bite their enemies, quite unlike people, who are incapable of pure love and always have to mix love and hate.
-Sigmund Freud
There is no psychiatrist in the world like a puppy licking your face.
-Ben Williams
A dog is the only thing on earth that loves you more than he loves himself.
-Josh Billings
I wonder if other dogs think poodles are members of a weird religious cult.
-Rita Rudner

Baghdad (AP) Iraq's oil minister says his country is now safe for investment and is appealing to international companies to help Iraq develop its petroleum sector.
In return, Oil Minister Hussain Al-Shahristani promises "full cooperation and a competitive environment for fair business."
Al-Shahristani spoke at Friday's opening of a three-day energy conference in Baghdad that has drawn international businessmen from as far away as Russia and Japan.
He also says his country has vast oil riches that have yet to be tapped.
Iraq sits on the world's third-largest proven oil reserves with more than 115 billion barrels. But decades of wars, U.N. Sanctions, violence and sabotage have devastated the oil infrastructure and undermined the country's rebuilding efforts.

I'm having a spot of bother getting my drop down menus to be accessible from the keyboard (ie by tabbing) with javascript turned off.
The tab runs through the drop down items, it just doesn't open the drop down so you can't actually see whats happening.
I can mouse over it with javascript off & it works okay, and if I hover the mouse over the parent & then tab you can see the different items being highlighted.
Does wordpress have problems opening dropdowns when tabbing through them, or is there a simple css control missing?
I've tried adding a:focus & a:active but it isn't working.
Many Thanks.

Modality is an important context factor in deception, which is context-dependent. In order to build a reliable and flexible tool for automatic-deception-detection (ADD), we investigated the characteristics of verbal cues to deceptive behavior in three modalities: text, audio and face-to-face communication. Seven categories of verbal cues (21 cues) were studied: quantity, complexity, diversity, verb nonimmediacy, uncertainty, specificity and affect. After testing the interaction effects between modality and condition (deception or truth), we found significance only with specificity and observed that differences between deception and truth were in general consistent across the three modalities. However, modality had strong effects on verbal cues. For example, messages delivered face-to-face were largest in quantity (number of words, verbs, and sentences), followed by the audio modality. Text had the sparsest examples. These modality effects are an important factor in building baselines in ADD tools, because they make it possible to use them to adjust the baseline for an unknown modality according to a known baseline, thereby simplifying the process of ADD. The paper discusses in detail the implications of these findings on modality effects in three modalities.

As we all know, business owners today are facing unprecedented challenges. Your ability to grow, maintain profits, expand, hire people, and meet the needs of your customers are being tested today as never before. What is even of greater concern to business owners is the extraordinary intensity of "unknowns" that they face.
We often hear this comment: How can I create a five-year plan when I am not sure what is in the cards for my business during the next 12 months?
This sentiment is growing and the level of risk associated with owning and operating a privately held business is as well. Our nation is facing challenges that we have not seen in modern times. Political gridlock, international geo-political unrest, ongoing fears of national security – not to mention that economic concerns have hundreds, if not thousands, of business owners operating in survival mode for the past several years.
Taxing Changes You Face
One critical pending unknown facing every business owner relates to tax policy changes. Unless Congress acts, at the end of this year significant changes in tax regulations will occur. Here is just a short list of some of the tax policy changes you are facing as a small business owner starting in 2013:
- On Jan. 1, 2013, the tax rate for top earners will increase from 35% to 39.6% when the Bush tax cuts expire.
- Medicare tax deducted from the salaries of top earners will increase by 0.9%, and a new 3.8% surcharge will be added to investment income to pay for healthcare reform.
- Cap gains taxes will increase from 15% to 20%.
- Dividend taxes will increase from 15% to 39.6%.
- Estate taxes will increase from 35% on estates valued at +$5 million (per person) to 55% and the exemption will drop to $1 million (per person)
What concerns many experts on family business ownership more than just these tax increases is that the complexities associated with tracking and filing taxes in 2013 will also increase significantly. This means that more and more of your time will need to be spent simply tracking your documentation, and less of your time will be available to spend on what you love: running your business.
Federal Taxes Only the Tip of the Iceberg
Federal taxes are only one example of increased complexity in owning and operating a business. As Gene Marks, owner of technology consulting firm Marks Group PC, put it in Free Enterprise, a U.S. Chamber of Commerce publication:
"Nowadays it's not just the federal tax rate you have to deal with. My federal effective tax rate is in the 30% range. But then I've got state taxes, city taxes, property taxes, school taxes and tolls I pay everyday on the turnpike."
And on top of tax policy, as we have discussed before, the new norm of business operation is constant and ongoing change. This is now a given. If you don't continually adapt, improvise, and overcome, you stand the risk of being obsolete in short order.
So looking at this landscape, we routinely ask our clients what level of risk are you comfortable with and how long can you survive with it? Most business owners never take the time to get off the treadmill and look objectively at their financial situation.
The reality is that most of your net worth is tied up in two assets: your home and your business. We all know what has happened to home values the past four years, and you probably have no realistic idea what your company is worth.
Is the Risk Worth It?
So how long are you willing to fully shoulder the risk associated with having your family's financial future in a very illiquid, risky investment vehicle? If you have a financial advisor handling your investments, he probably advises you to have a diverse portfolio of investments. But how can you given your complete dependence on the value of an unknown asset – your company?
The reality is you can't. That is why the first step in the Generational Equity process is a thorough and complete evaluation of your business by our valuation professionals. This can be an eye-opening experience for many business owners.
During the evaluation you will be asked questions about your business that you have probably never considered. Your financials will be examined in detail and will be "recast" to reflect your true profitability. For years your accountant has helped you to legitimately minimize your profits for tax purposes, which understates your earnings in most cases. Recasting allows us to present the true profitability of the firm so that buyers can see how much money your company really makes.
In addition, you will be asked about your operations, your customers, and your key employees all with the goal of documenting your strengths to help you see what you may need to work on in order to improve your value.
It is a vital first step in your exit planning process. If you would like to learn more I encourage you to attend a Generational Equity M&A workshop in your area. If you fill out our contact form, we will have one of our M&A consultants contact you for a no-obligation discussion about your need to plan ahead for the unknown you are now facing.
No matter what, don't fall into the trap we see too many business owners fall into: inaction and lack of planning. Human beings often freeze when facing the unknown. It is far easier to focus on the problems of today rather than the looming issues you will be facing in 2013 and beyond.
So take a few hours out of your schedule and attend an M&A workshop and begin to proactively take steps to protect the legacy you have built in your business!

Lowe opened the scoring in the fourth minute before two fine saves from Owain Fon Williams prevented the Sky Bet League One's top scorer Callum Wilson from levelling.
Jake Kirby capitalised on poor defending to make it two after 37 minutes and Lowe lobbed in a third just before half-time.
Lowe completed his hat-trick in the 53rd minute with a super strike from 35 yards.
Carl Baker pulled one back from the penalty spot - after Danny Holmes had handled - and Ash Taylor was sent off for a high challenge.
But James Wallace capped a great day for Rovers with a powerful drive to mark his first appearance since December.
Rovers are unbeaten in six, while Steven Pressley's Coventry lost for the first time since September.
Pressley said: "I'm not going to be overly critical of this group of players because their performances this season have been top-level.
"What this proved to us was that if we don't play with that intensity and don't press the game in the cohesive manner that we work towards then we are maybe not the team we like to think we are.
"There is still a lot of work to be done. The one thing that this game tells us is exactly that.
"If we start believing that we are better than we are then we have a problem. This was a stark reminder of that for us.
"The key word for me was intensity. We didn't play with that intensity.
"We can't keep losing five, four or three goals. We have to tighten up in those areas, but there were several reasons for that and we have to ensure that doesn't happen again."

My home in Cahaba Heights (Birmingham, AL) was destroyed by Fire in 2005. I was away, caring for my Mom in FL, who was terminally ill, and my young girls. On Feb 24th, 2005 I got a phone call....There had been a fire, and my husband, the girls Dad, had died. We contacted State Farm, our Insurer, and notified them of the tragedy.
Instead of quickly adjusting the loss, by rebuilding our home, paying for another temporary home, and paying for our personal property, AS PROMISED IN OUR POLICY, State Farm weaseled out of rebuilding my home and took actions to make sure I was DESTROYED mentally, emotionally, psychologically, and financially. Their employee, Fred Williams, started vicious rumors about me, refused to answer questions on how to make the claim and fill out State Farm's Inventory and Proof of Loss forms.
Fred Williams yelled at me on the phone when I called and asked them to honor the policy they sold me. Not only was he not helpful, he was mean and abusive. I called State Farm and complained but was still forced to deal with him.
Later, in a phone call, Mr Williams' supervisor, Lloyd Renfrow privately confessed to me the REAL reason they didn't pay. He said that my lawyer wasn't doing enough for me, and that they knew he had a conflict of interest all along. In other words, he was telling me that State Farm was taking advantage of us simply because they saw the opportunity to do so. State Farm never repaired my home. Eventually, the roof fell in due to the extensive fire damage.
My young daughters and I had to live in a condemned house in 2006. There were holes in the walls and floors and animals came in at night. State Farm was aware of that fact, but did NOTHING for us. Please see statefarmsucks on Myspace for PHOTOS of where we lived in 2006, when State Farm didn't keep their promises, or HONOR the policy they sold us. My policy promised to perform within 60 days.
State Farm's Employee Lloyd Renfrow stated in a deposition that they didn't know I wanted my house rebuilt, and that don't know why I submitted estimates to rebuild my house. I have my phone records. THEY SHOW OVER 80 CALLS STATE FARM, that's OVER EIGHTY CALLS TO STATE FARM. What sick, pathetic liars. I guess they expect someone to believe I called to talk about the weather 80 times.
It's OVER FOUR YEARS. State Farm is STILL LYING. State Farm takes in BILLIONS of dollars annually, from TRUSTING customers, but then CHEATS THEIR CUSTOMERS out of their homes. I never would have believed this would happen had this not happened to us. I was naive and trusting, and foolishly believed State Farm's advertising. We buy Insurance to save us from being totally destroyed by a major loss like this. It's outrageous that they made the experience even WORSE instead of helping. I still have not recovered completely from their actions. THINK TWICE...... DON'T BE STATE FARM'S NEXT VICTIM.

text: 000 FXUS63 KILX 232300 AFDILX Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Lincoln IL 600 PM CDT TUE AUG 23 2016 .SHORT TERM...(This evening through Wednesday) ISSUED AT 300 PM CDT Tue Aug 23 2016 Developing storm system moving into the region from the west this evening. Relatively quiet this afternoon and early evening, with increasing clouds ahead of the rain and potential thunderstorms later tonight after midnight. Towards morning, the models are having trouble working out a consistent solution. Plenty of instability available in the lower levels in a warm and muggy airmass, but how much severe weather will manifest will be contingent on a diurnal component out far ahead of the synoptic boundary. So, tomorrow is currently in a marginal risk, with much of the risk dependent on any clearing/holes in the cloud cover after the first round of showers. NAM at least has some breaks in the activity, but not enough cloud clearing. If the clouds break, daytime heating could result in some quick development of activity again through the day. Either way, PW values in the 1.5-2.0" range will allow for some heavy rain threat under any of the more prolific cells. .LONG TERM...(Wednesday night through Tuesday) ISSUED AT 300 PM CDT Tue Aug 23 2016 Wed evening looks to start out with an ongoing or developing storm complex across central Illinois, due to the close proximity of an approaching cold front from the W-NW. Areas north of I-72 will have the better chances of storms, due to proximity of the 500mb shortwave NW of our forecast area. Have trended with the highest rain chances (80%) in our NW tier of counties, with likely 60-70% chances down to the I-72 corridor. Severe potential will be marginal Wed evening, but brief strong downbursts could occur due to precip loading and subsequent storm tower collapse. PWAT values will remain around 2" Wed eve, which would support locally heavy rainfall and flooding of low lying or poor drainage areas. The next wave of rain/storms beyond that should be tied to the passage of the cold front on Thursday. The frontal progression will be slow, due to the front becoming parallel with the upper flow. However, there is agreement that the front will eventually move south of our counties by Thursday evening. Due to variability in timing and coverage of any particular waves of rain, we kept PoPs in the chance category on Thursday, with diminishing chances NW of the IL river Thursday afternoon. Some cooler air is expected to arrive for Friday and Friday night, under high pressure centered to the north of Illinois. The dry period may be short-lived, as low pressure in the plains approaches on Saturday. Warm frontal precip could advance as far east as I-57 Saturday afternoon. The warm front is forecast to stall out north of Illinois, putting our area in a warm and humid summer-time air mass for several days. Afternoon and evening instability params show storms could develop each day from Sunday through Tuesday. Varying intensity of the storms would be tied to any shortwaves that pass during the more unstable periods over those days. PoPs were kept in the 30-40% chance range for now, due to uncertainties. && .AVIATION...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Wednesday evening) Issued at 600 PM CDT Tue Aug 23 2016 Conditions will continue to slowly deteriorate overnight as low level moisture increases from the south helping to fuel showers and scattered thunderstorms across the forecast area, especially after 05z. Already have seen a band of MVFR cigs track north into our TAF sites roughly along and west of a TAZ to PIA line with the last few runs of the HRRR model suggesting DEC and BMI may see at least some tempo MVFR cigs at times early this evening. As the complex of showers and storms increases in coverage later tonight we expect cigs at all sites to eventually drop to MVFR and possibly some tempo IFR cigs in the heavier precipitation aftr 08z. MVFR cigs should gradually improve to VFR after 16z as the area of showers and storms shifts off to our east and north. Surface winds will be out of a southerly direction tonight at around 10 kts, and south to southwest at 10 to 15 kts late Wed morning through the afternoon hours. && .ILX Watches/Warnings/Advisories...

Yes but Paul this is the problem.He has perfected the art of being thereabouts on a budget, and no-one can argue that.But he always fallen short in the real 2 achievements a great manager can point to.1. Retaining the title.2. Winning the Champions League (mighty mighty close though).And THIS is why he pisses me off!He has always been capable of doing it, and in the years to come people will ask why it never happened.The man likes to handicap himself and shove his principles in other people's faces.You could also argue that his man-management hasn't worked when players leave and let their contracts run down.And to be honest this season he is hanging by a thread in terms of what he can get out of this squad.They might scrape the CL or miss it completely and this is simply negligence.

Bill and Betty Jane.
That's the way former NASCAR Chairman and CEO Bill France Jr. and his wife, Betty Jane, were known to everyone in the racing community. Even though it was Bill Jr. who sat in a director's chair behind the NASCAR hauler every race weekend in the garage, conversing with those who wanted to talk, everyone who knew the sanctioning body's inner workings knew the couple was true partners in the operation of NASCAR. Throughout their marriage they supported and advised each other.
The story of their meeting was common knowledge. She was from Winston-Salem, N.C., and a finalist in the Miss NASCAR pageant. William C. France escorted Betty Jane Zachary in that pageant and it was then that she won his heart.
A strong and classy woman, Betty Jane possessed just as much authority as her husband, but in a different arena. She worked with her mother-in-law, also a North Carolina native, in the sport's financial end while expanding NASCAR's involvement in civic activities. Read the full story »

ADAZI, Latvia -The Observer Coach Trainer (OCT) briefing for the 2014 Saber Strike exercise took place on the opening day of the event at the Adazi military post near Riga, Latvia. U.S. Army Europe and regional Baltic partners are focusing on joint and combined interoperability with regional partners during the fourth annual exercise, which will span June 9 - 20.
OCT plays a vital role in any large mission by providing guidance to the soldiers who will provide the instruction during the exercise. The observers are there to coach and guide service members by watching them perform specific tasks and providing immediate feedback as well as written recommendations.
"Our goal is to lead the partnered units to a greater self awareness and desire to improve upon themselves," said Maj. Joseph Lane, one of the instructors for the course with the Joint Multinational Readiness Center in Germany.
Previously the U.S. Army had used the observer/controller method, which was much more strictly monitored. The new method is about learning and growing knowledge together and providing feedback in a timely manner. Now the coaches would not distract from training unless there was a direct safety hazard.
"There is a similar concept in the British Army, except the U.S. Army has a dedicated team, whereas in the British Army, all Non Commissioned Officers (NCOs) are expected to do it at some point," said Sgt. James Pierce of the British Army and Infantry C-Company.
There are several service members from the British Army participating in Saber Strike; a small group from C-Company is partnering with the Estonians to run one a portion of the exercise, to include training defenders and attackers, said Pierce.
"OCT is vital to achieve any training objective," Pierce said. "Without feedback or the right direction you would essentially be blind, you wouldn't know what had gone wrong or where your gaps were."
Pierce said he was most interested in working with the other countries to see their different tactics and methods in which other nations approached and solved problems. He said Saber Strike is a great opportunities to grow and learn from each other.
"In the simplest form, Observer Coach Training is when the trainers provide feedback to the unit in order for them to improve," Lane said.
Lane said it was not a matter of expecting every soldier to be excellent, but rather to allow each individual improve from whatever level they were at before.
Lane said the first week of Saber Strike will be conducting training in a lane setting with immediate feedback. The following week, service members will be in the field for a 24/7 mission with some immediate feedback, but the majority of the reviews will come in written comments after the exercise is complete.
"The hardest part of this training is trying to convey to each group that this is their training, and they will get out of it whatever they choose," Lane said. "I really enjoy working with the multinationals and watching how they do things differently, and often I learn a better way to do things.
"The best thing we can take from this is confidence in our NATO partnerships and knowing their partner countries are capable," Lane said.

North Dakota's Best Idea — Theodore Roosevelt National Park
"I grow very fond of this place, and it certainly has a desolate, grim beauty of its own, that has a curious fascination for me." - Theodore Roosevelt
BioBlitz Coming to Theodore Roosevelt National Park
TRNP and DSU invite you to participate in citizen science during the National Parks BioBlitz on Friday and Saturday, June 24 and 25 at Peaceful Valley Ranch in the park's South Unit. BioBlitz is a fun, fast-paced biological survey of a park's creepers and crawlers, plants, pollinators, and mammals. During this two-day event, teams of scientists, naturalists, students, and volunteers will discover and document the living creatures in the park.
Registration is required to participate.
A Message From Our President
Spring 2016 Newsletter
Hello to all Friends of Theodore Roosevelt National ParkSpring is here early and it looks like 2016 is going to be a good year in the North Dakota badlands of Theodore Roosevelt National Park. The Friends of TRNP are gearing up for what promises to be a busy summer. We have several new members of the Friends board: Don Frye and Lorrie Pavlicek of Jamestown, Eric Brevik of Belfield and Denise Steinbach of Dickinson.
Theodore Roosevelt National Park gears up for a busy year: "TRNP is anticipating a sizable boost in visitors thanks to both centennial events and North Dakota Tourism's nationwide marketing push" — Read more at The Dickinson Press.
Our Mission
The mission of this non-profit organization is to support the natural, cultural, and scenic resources, and the spirit and sense of place of the three units of Theodore Roosevelt National Park and the Little Missouri River that unites them in the badlands of North Dakota.
This will be accomplished by advocating for the park, raising public awareness, engaging youth, and raising funds for projects that support the park's mission and Theodore Roosevelt's conservation legacy.
Friends of Theodore Roosevelt National Park is eager to help Theodore Roosevelt National Park with friend-raising. Our first donation of park support was to be a sponsor of the North Dakota sneak preview (September 17, 2009) of the Ken Burns Film: The National Parks - America's Best Idea. One of the Friends Group board members, Clay Jenkinson, was featured as a scholar in two episodes of the Ken Burns film series.
Our Goals
Many North Dakotans love their national park, but few are truly engaged with the park and its issues. Young people have not been well engaged, but in the past year the park has seen more youth and families visit. The Friends Group hopes to help capitalize on both the recent Ken Burns film and the resurgence of family visitors and help to inspire other young people to get to know the park.
In addition, we hope to help the park reach other under-served groups, including those who often take Theodore Roosevelt National Park for granted.

I am a 34 years old woman I have seen some pictures here and I have noticed that they are lifted from the middle.I would like to lift the very end tail of my eyebrows is it possible? And how much it costs? Thanks
What Treatments Would be able to Lift the Very End Tail off the Eyebrows?
Doctor Answers 14
Lifting Eyebrows with Botox
I would recommend a few injections of Botox or Dysport. Visit a board-certified physician for an evaluation, but this is an easy way to get the lift you are looking for.
Lifting Eyebrows
Lateral Brow Lifting
Several methods exist to help lift the outer (or lateral) portions of the eyebrows, which are meant to be elevated in a youthful look. The least costly way is to use Botox or Dysport injections to relax the muscles that pull down on the eyelid. This lasts most patients 3-4 months on average. There are non-invasive tissue tightening procedures, such as Ultherapy, that have been FDA-approved for brow lifting. This, like Botox and Dysport, has no downtime, but the cost is higher and the effect will usually last for 1-2 years. Lastly, in more severely heavy brows, a Temporal Brow Lift surgery can be performed (usually under local anesthesia). This a more costly option but its effect will last the longest.

Try either Botox or Dysport to lift just the tail of the eyebrow. Sometimes Restylane beneath the brow will also give it support and raise the brow.

Ultherapy for lifting the eyebrows. Los Angeles
I would treat the area with Ultherapy to tighten the underlying muscle fascia and lift the eyebrows. Raffy Karamanoukian Los Angeles
Web reference: http://karemd.com/plastic-surgery/18/ultherapy.aspx
Lifting tail ends of the eyebrows. Possible?
Hard to say without photos or exam. It is possible to lift the ends of the eyebrows with Botox. Our office does this often. Best to see an experienced and well trained injector.
Web reference: http://www.jjrothmd.com/face-and-skin
Lift of the Eyebrows with Botox
Yes, it is certainly quite possible to just lift the tail end of your eyebrows.
This can be achieved with Botox. The different muscles in your face often work in pairs. In simple terms, one will move in one direction. The other will move in the opposite direction.
As you may know, Botox will relax the muscles. For the eyebrows, it will relax the muscles that pull the tail end of your eyebrows down. This will automatically trigger the opposite muscles to pull them up.
The average cost for Botox brow lift is $425.
Web reference: http://www.finetouchdermatology.com/los-angeles-botox/
Botox injections may lead to elevation of your eyebrows.
If you have Botox injected into the muscles that would naturally pull your eyebrows down, this will lead to an elevation of your brows. In many patients this may be accomplished by injecting frown muscles and crow's feet with approximately 50u Botox. You may be able to achieve tail-brow lifting with fewer units, but this would need to be determined during a consultation.
