Looking great: With every upside, there is a downside.
Achieving beauty perfection can sometimes be as easy as swiping on some lipstick; other times, it can be a total pain in the ass. Many cosmetically enhancing treatments and tricks come with baggage: Anyone who's come into contact with an eyelash curler knows that, at some point, you're going to accidentally clamp down on your eye lid. Or those who like dark nail polishes will sometimes have yellow-tinged nail beds following the removal process. And then there's the person who can't live without a spray tan session, which means not being able to shower for at least 24 hours post-spray. She has to live with the stink of DHA, the chemical tanning agent. But through all the sacrifices, we continue to torture ourselves (or those around us) in the name of beauty. These are the top ten beauty trade-offs we're consistently facing. All of us.
Waterproof Mascara
The upside: During the humid, summer months it keeps our peepers from looking like smudgy panda eyes.
The downside: Messiness. Having to add an extra step into our nightly routine with eye makeup remover made to specifically battle stubborn waterproof mascara remnants. All that eye-rubbing usually results in tiny flecks of mascara all over your face and a few sacrificed lashes.
Keratin Hair Treatments
The upside: Smoother, frizz-free hair that takes half the styling time.
The downside: Helmet-y-ness. And not being able to shower or rinse your chemical-filled tresses for 48 hours. Since it's already styled into a "coif," the treatment leaves you with immovable, sometimes pungent tresses.
Spray Tan
The upside: A glow that's free of sun damage.
The downside: Stinkiness. You can't shower for at least 24 hours post-treatment. Even though many are scent-free these days, you can still get a faint whiff of that nostril-tingling DHA. Plus, you'll have to spend that first day feeling sticky from the spray formula that's coated your body.
Hair Coloring
The upside: No greys. Brighter, multidimensional hair color.
The downside: Time. Money. Roots.
Hot Yoga
The upside: You lost half your weight in sweat and pushed out some bodily toxins along with it, all in the name of toned, sleek muscles.
The downside: Breakouts. Blemishes are caused from the sweaty, salty skin that you won't get to properly wash until much later after class.*
Gel Manicures
The upside: Chip-free manicures that last for weeks.
The downside: The removal process. You'll struggle to get the polish off at home with your nails wrapped in acetone and tin foil. This never goes as well as when you go into the salon, but that requires going to the salon ...
Lash Extensions
The upside: For weeks, you'll look like J. Lo. Plus, you won't have to wear mascara.
The downside: Maintenance. It takes extreme care to not rub your eyes during the duration of your extensions period. You also must comb them regularly to make sure they don't start tangling up and looking spidery.
Scented Body Lotion
The upside: It smells pretty and can be a fragrance substitute, especially during summer when we want a lighter scent.
The downside: Bug bites. You're essentially a walking, talking garden.
Dry Shampoo
The upside: You don't have to waste your time washing and styling your hair every day.
The downside: Laziness. You'll try and stretch that last blow-out for as long as you can, going days with spritzes and re-spritzes of dry shampoo. By week's end, your hair wouldn't lose its shape even if you stood behind a jet engine.
The upside: It is more cost effective than waxing or lasering.
The downside: Razor burn. Nicks. Time wasted in the shower. Wait, why do we shave?

Rabat, 4 March
Check against delivery
I am very happy to be here in Morocco, at the invitation of my friend and counterpart, the Minister for Foreign Affairs, Salaheddine Mezouar, for in-depth discussions on all the key issues that are close to our hearts.
As you know, our discussions have been open and constructive. Naturally, they centred on the political issues relating to the recent decision of the European Court of Justice, but they also covered other important bilateral and regional issues of mutual interest.
As I have already stated, during my visit in July and at the Association Council in Brussels, Morocco is a key partner in our Southern Neighbourhood. We want not only to preserve the privileged relationship we share with this important country, but also to strengthen it, to our mutual benefit.
We are facing major challenges - I do not need to name them for you - and we must tackle them together: this is the responsibility we bear on behalf of our respective peoples.
With regard to the judgment of the General Court of the European Union of 10 December 2015, I am well aware of the strategic importance of this issue, both for Morocco and for the European Union.
The Council disagrees with the General Court's judgment of 10 December 2015, so an appeal has been brought before the Court of Justice of the European Union.
The EU maintains its view that the agreements between Morocco and the European Union do not violate international law, and it is for this reason that an appeal has been lodged. The agricultural agreement, meanwhile, remains in force.
I provided clarification and reassurance during the dialogue with the Moroccan authorities, alongside the Minister.
The European Union and Morocco will work in close partnership on this matter.
Since December, new contacts between the European Union and Morocco have been established at all levels to deal with this issue. Regular, ongoing and transparent interaction and dialogue will be put in place.
To this end, the Minister will travel to Brussels before the end of March to finalise the content of this interaction with the European side.
We have agreed that we understand each other's respective positions and that we will renew contacts in all areas. We also agree that the key word in our partnership is 'trust'. It was this trust that we shared today.
Thank you.

Workforce Management Article Reaffirms HRchitect Position on HR Technology Purchases
Wednesday, December 3, 2008
In an article last week in Workforce Management Magazine, the recent study from IHRIM is cited regarding HR technology spending holding steady in 2009.
In the study, 42% of the nearly 210 respondents reported that their human resources information technology budgets will remain the same in 2009 as in 2008, the association said in a release Friday, November 21. Another 21 percent of participants said budgets will increase by an average of 23 percent, while 37 percent said their budgets will decrease by a median of 15 percent.
So 63% of respondents, almost two-thirds, indicate their HR technology budgets will stay the same or increase in 2009. This is great news for the HR industry as a whole and closely mirrors what HRchitect has told its clients and prospects throughout 2008 through meetings, webinars and other forms of communication.
While there is uncertainty with our current economic conditions, companies absolutely have to look to the future as these conditions won't last. I personally believe our economy will start to turn around in a positive direction by the third quarter of 2009.
The HR Systems software market and the Talent Management Systems marketplace continue to be some of the fastest growing software market segments. Hiring and managing people is a must in any organization, regardless of what the economic conditions are, thus part of the reason these segments are staying hot with no sign of cooling. If they are hot now, just imagine what is going to happen when the so-called economic recovery takes place!
HRchitect's advice to companies is to continue to invest in HR systems but be sure to consider the use of a consulting firm like HRchitect to ensure you get the right product, the right services, and the right term and pricing. The cost of the consulting services will easily be repaid many times over by helping you take the risk out of evaluation and selection projects.
Surely the vendor market will continue to consolidate in the coming years, and businesses need to do their homework when investing in an HR software vendor, but don't make drastic budget cuts in this area based on current economic conditions. People are any organization's biggest asset and HR Systems and Talent Management Systems aid in better managing, maintaining, or growing the employee population in any given firm. Those that utilize HR technology are simply going to have a competitive advantage over those that don't.

The Adoration of Jenna Fox
by Mary E. Pearson
Best Young Adult (83)
Female Protagonist (308)
» 1 more
KayStJ's to-read list (605)
No current Talk conversations about this book.
I've never been one for dystopian-type novels, but this one sounded interesting. And it was. The premise is fascinating; the ethical questions and story are compelling. The narration is told from Jenna's first-person viewpoint as she awakens from a year-long coma. The story unfolds as she discovers what has happened to her and who she is now.
I can't say that any of these characters are particularly likeable and many of the secondary characters aren't fleshed out well, so I was left wondering about their stories. However, this is one of those books that sort of stays with you. Whether it's a good thing or a bad thing, I don't know.
Brilliant. Book clubs, especially those for young teens, will find plenty to discuss here:
Would you do that? What if you were in her shoes? Why did he make that choice? Was that ethical? Should this be legal? Is there any other way they could have handled that? Who did you most empathize with? Did the epilogue reveal what you expected, or was it a surprise? *How* did the author mess with your feelings, and with your expectations? Which details of this near future do you anticipate becoming reality, and which do you think are too fantastic? Which do you look forward to, and which do you dread?
I know I'm torn - I don't have solid answers to any of those questions.
I also agree with Cherylann that this reminded me of [b:Eva|631169|Eva|Peter Dickinson|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1328397920s/631169.jpg|1964961] by [a:Peter Dickinson|5345|Peter Dickinson|https://d.gr-assets.com/authors/1292282037p2/5345.jpg]. And now that she mentions it, yes, [b:The House of the Scorpion|13376|The House of the Scorpion (Matteo Alacran, #1)|Nancy Farmer|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1401734230s/13376.jpg|868252] by [a:Nancy Farmer|8360|Nancy Farmer|https://d.gr-assets.com/authors/1207168030p2/8360.jpg]. Iow, if you liked any of the three, you'll probably like this, too.
The Adoration of Jenna Fox by Mary E. Pearson This is a fascinating book about a 17 year old girl that wakes up from a year long coma without any memories of who she is. As the story unfolds she begins to question who she is now versus who she was for some very interesting reasons. Great discussion book!
Genre: Sci-Fi. This is a science fiction book because they basically remake Jenna after her accident.
Media: None
Uses: This is too advanced for the grades I would want to teach so I don't know how I would use it in a classroom. But I did really enjoy reading it!
I'm not a big fan of sci-fi, and this one is built on a sci-fi premise, but there is so much more here. This book asks so many questions about ethics, mans effect on the world around him, what makes a person who he or she is. I would rate this closer to a 4 than a 3 but not a 4 because of some nagging issues that were left unresolved.

Published on Monday, August 6, 2012
A female Qantas pilot has been suspended after she was suspected of being drunk before a flight.
The female captain was ordered from the controls just minutes before it was due to take off on a flight from Sydney to Brisbane.
Flight attendants on the Boeing 767, which can carry 254 passengers, informed the airline's flight operations managers that they suspected the captain of the plane had been drinking, reports the Daily Mail.
The aircraft had already pulled back from the domestic terminal and was taxiing towards a runway for take-off when Qantas management decided to call it back.
The pilot was suspended and Qantas has since launched an investigation into the incident after the senior pilot recorded a positive reading for alcohol.
The investigation into the captain's alcohol reading is expected to take at least a month.
A Qantas spokesman confirmed that a captain had been "withheld from service for administrative reasons" last week but he declined to comment further because the matter was under investigation.

When you have as sparkling a season as Eddie Butler did in 2013, anything that's perhaps just solid seems pedestrian.
So when the right-hander, who went posted an 0.65 ERA in six Double-A starts late last season, started his 2014 campaign with a 3.45 ERA through his first six games, something may have seemed off.
"I definitely want to repeat those numbers," Butler joked. "But it's tough, especially at this level against these hitters. They've got extensive scouting reports on you every time, and they're charting you for the next time you face them. It makes it tough. I faced a few of these same teams last year, and they have that valuable info."
Thanks to some scouting of his own, Butler's numbers appear to be back on the way to their "regular" lows.
The Rockies' No. 2 prospect scattered six hits and one walk and struck out four in seven scoreless innings Wednesday afternoon to lead Double-A Tulsa to an 8-1 win over Springfield at ONEOK Field.
It was the first zero-laden start of the 2014 season for the right-hander, who improved to 2-4 with a 2.98 ERA in eight starts.
"It's nice to finally have that," he said. "I don't know entirely why it took this long, but it's nice to have it done."
Butler only really faced trouble in the fourth inning, when three straight one-out singles loaded the bases before he got Rafael Ortega to fly out and Matt Williams to pop out to end the threat.
He worked incredibly efficiently, throwing first-pitch strikes to 23 of the 27 Cardinals he faced, and finished his seven frames with only 83 pitches (64 for strikes).
"It was probably my secondary pitches that helped the most," Butler said. "We tried to work a lot of curveballs in because they're a pretty good fastball-hitting team. So we were showing a couple of them early, and all of the first-pitch strikes, that always helps too."
While he knows 2013's stats may have been fairly unrepeatable, the numbers for MLB.com's No. 35 overall prospect this season had their own merits. His 2.98 ERA ranks sixth in the Texas League, while his 1.15 WHIP is seventh. His 8.6 K/9 in 2013 is down to 5.4 this season, his BB/9 rate is also down from 3.1 to 2.1.
The change in stats appears to have come from a change in pitching focus, one that should continue to pay dividends like it did Wednesday.
"We've been working on four-seamers and getting the consistency of that down," Butler said. "The four-seamer, the sinker, that's stuff I've been cluing in on more from the start of the season and trying to work on the most right now."
Rockies' No. 7 prospect Tom Murphy, Butler's batterymate behind the plate, smacked a solo homer, walked two times and scored two runs scored from the cleanup spot.
