I can't believe it has been over a year since Una and I first sat and had a heart-to-heart about our dreams.
I expressed my desire to give back through Purposerosa, and how Yaminah and I wanted to do more
than just donating money. So Una said, why don't you give back through Barona? And The Barona necklace was born.
We have spent nearly a year perfecting the design to be supremely comfortable, durable and unique.
The material research, the photo and video shoots, the countless hours spent deciding on color choice and web layout.
It all matters. This is by far the most time we have put into releasing a piece of ours, and it stems from our sincere desire to put more purpose in Purposerosa.
After postponing the release of our collaboration with Barona for over a year, I woke up this morning with a fierce understanding that now is the time to give this necklace to the world. With ten different gradients of skin tone represented, each integral to the beauty of the spectrum, The Barona necklace is a reaffirmation that all lives matter. The Barona Necklace is not only a statement piece, but a symbol of unity and giving.
Purposerosa has never just been about jewelry; it is about the possibility of positive transformation. We wholeheartedly believe in the practice of consistently seeking beauty in the ordinary, finding value in the broken, and encouraging our community to make something from nothing. Purposerosa carries purpose in its sensibility, its attitude, its style. Barona carries purpose in its mission, its love for people, and its audacity to challenge standards. It is only fitting that our first giving initiative is with Barona, who has done significant work to secure a platform for children's voices in both the United States and Botswana. Their message of "Our children matter." offers a glimmer of hope that our children will grow to respect each other's lives with the upmost value.
We are thrilled to finally present The Barona Necklace, designed by Purposerosa exclusively for Barona.
In honor of our commitment to purpose, Purposerosa will donate a percentage of all sales of The Barona Necklace to Barona, which is committed to nurturing children's lives by building Botswana's first ever children's hospital through the merging of art and medicine.

We suggest that all our customers review foreign office advice for the British Virgin Islands before travelling. Click here for the latest information from the foreign office.
British nationals do not require visas to visit the British Virgin Islands, and it is normal practice for BVI immigration to issue you with a one month entry stamp upon your arrival into the country.
The official currency of the British Virgin Islands is the US dollar.
The British Virgin Islands primarily use electrical outlets similar to those found in the USA and Canada, therefore a universal adaptor will be required.
Although many of the foods found in the British Virgin Islands are imported, local farmers do grow fruit and vegetables and rear animals, and these goods are sold in local open air markets. Traditional food on the island tends to be fairly spicy and hearty; a dish called Fungi is a staple of the Virgin Islands diet, consisting of cornmeal boiled with okra, usually eaten with boiled fish or saltfish.
English is the official language of the British Virgin Islands, although a form of creole is also widely spoken by inhabitants.
Be aware that fishing without the correct permit carries steep penalties in the British Virgin Islands, and is forbidden within the boundaries of all marine parks.
Although the British Virgin Islands are relatively safe, take usual precautions to safeguard your belongings, as theft and mugging does sometimes occur.
The quality of the nightlife in the British Virgin Islands will depend largely upon which island you are staying on; while the pace of life is more sedate on many, larger islands such as Tortola boast several lively bars, and neighbouring US Virgin Islands St Thomas and St Croix each have vibrant after-dark scenes.

David Burliuk, one of the most exuberant figures of the Russian Avant-garde, came from a large creative family of artists and poets. David and his brother Vladimir belonged to a group of daring young artists who launched the Avant-garde movement in Russia. He collaborated with the artists Mikhail Larionov, Natalia Goncharova, Vassily Kandinsky and Mikhail Matiushin and the poets Vladimir Mayakovsky, Aleksey Kruchenykh and Velimir Khlebnikov. David's contribution to Russian literary Futurism as organiser and polemicist led to his appelation 'the father of Russian Futurism'. Whether marching down the street with his fellow Futurists in absurd clothes, his face painted with primitive symbols, or participating in the scandalous shows of the 'Jack of Diamonds' group (1910-1917), Burliuk was always at the very source of creative development of the Russian Avant-garde.
Burliuk actively promoted Russian Futurism in Europe. He participated in Munich's 'Der Blaue Reiter' (1911, 1912) and exhibited at Der Sturm gallery in Berlin (1913) and at the Parisian 'Salon des Independants' (1914). His articles 'A slap in the face of public taste' (1912) and 'Wild Russians' (Die Wilden Russlands, 1912) brought the iconoclastic ideas of the Russian Futurists to the attention of a wider circle of Western artists and critics. As a painter Burliuk was influenced by Western modernism, but his original painterly manner developed alongside the oeuvre of the most eminent figures of the Russian Avant-garde - Kandinsky and Larionov. Burliuk applied his creative talent to various artistic fields including performance art, interior design, publishing and book illustration.
During the tumult caused by the First World War, the Russian Revolution and subsequent Civil War, Burliuk travelled extensively in Central Russia, organising exhibitions and lectures promoting Avant-garde art. Following his recovery from a serious bout of rheumatic fever in Vladivostok, Burliuk travelled further east and arrived in Japan in 1920.
Newly equipped with artist's materials that had been in scant supply in Siberia, Burliuk experienced a prolific creative period and found Japan receptive to his talents. His arrival and subsequent collaborations with peers including Victor Palmov (1888-1929), had a profound influence on Japanese Futurism. 'The First Exhibition of Russian Painting in Japan', organised by Burliuk, showcased Futurist works by artists including Tatlin and Malevich, and was shown in Tokyo, Kyoto and Osaka.
During the winter of 1920-1921, Burliuk and his family travelled to the Ogasawara Islands, approximately 1,000 km. south of Tokyo, where he painted his series of South Sea Islanders including the well-known 1921 composition 'South Sea Fishermen', gifted by the Société Anonyme to Yale University Art Gallery. It is likely that the present picture, Saipan Kiss, was painted during this trip.
The exoticism of the location, heightened by Burliuk's use of warm and vibrant hues in Saipan Kiss, is tempered by the tenderness of the lovers whose voluptuous curved contours are framed by the draping corregated leaves. Reminiscient of Gauguin's Tahitian scenes (fig. 1), the lovers here are almost like a modern Adam and Eve in a tropical Garden of Eden.
Following his return to Kobe in 1921, Burliuk exhibited his recent work which was feted in the press and admired by the public; the proceeds from some 200 works enabled Burliuk to buy passage on the SS Empress of Russia for his family to New York where he settled in 1922 and was to embark on yet another chapter in his artistic career.
Swiftly establishing himself as a leading figure in the artistic circles of New York, Burliuk's work was admired by many of the most influential patrons of the day including Katherine Dreier and Dr Christian Brinton. The brothers Max and Arthur Granick were avid art connoisseurs who, over the years, acquired a significant collection of works by Burliuk; the present oeuvre was one of the highlight's of Max Granick's collection.
We are grateful to Kyoji Takizawa, Curator at Machida City Museum of Graphic Arts, Tokyo, for his assistance in cataloguing the present work.

The bloody trail of police violence, that always seems to happen off camera, finally made it into the eyes-wide-open lens of America, as a literal smoking gun video, showing the brutal and tragic slaying of Walter Scott, has emerged, bringing a murder charge to the police officer who killed him, Michael Thomas Slager.
For the first time, America gets to see one of these "police incidents", that so many people tend to have opinions on… even if they are based on their own personal speculation, finally in full-blown uncensored mode. What lies beneath the rocks is every bit as slimy as you can imagine.
The Smoking Gun
The incident started off as just another 'black man shot by cops' story, which, to the utter horror of our humanity, has become as passe as another school shooting. Another suspect, Scott, "who happens to be African-American" (by coincidence I suppose) resisted arrest, according to the police report, attacked the officer, Michael Thomas Slager, and he shot the suspect in a heroic story of self-defense for the public good by an officer who humbly accepted the blah blah blah. The story began to fall off, as the cop's lawyer came to the fore with a sworn statement that the officer had reported the 50 year old Walter Scott, who was pulled over on a traffic infraction (I believe it was the old busted tail-light excuse), then attempted to resist arrest and attack the younger cop. When Slager used his taser, it did not subdue Scott and "the driver tried to overpower Officer Slager in an effort to take his Taser." So Slager, of course in self-defense, "felt threatened and reached for his department-issued firearm and fired his weapon." What a hero!
Sound familiar?
The cycle of useless media and the echo chamber of division and distraction was about to begin. The department was squared to defend him and you could almost hear the right-wing glorification of Slager as the "hero cop", already in progress. You could feel each side was gearing up for equal time on the awful morning network shows like Today. You could hear the Fox News gang getting rubbing their hands together as they read the talking points handed to them by the Heritage Foundation. They were readying their kangaroo court, ready to come out swinging to defend 'the worst crime violence we've ever seen in our nation's history' (which would have been their usual hyperbole by definition) defended by a nearly angelic cop who was doing God's work, no exaggeration, of course. The whole world was about to roll it's eyes while a tragedy slipped under the veil of distraction (ie: race, sex, orientation, etc. division), and the usual Street Gang (South-Side Wall Street holmes) at Faux News would lead the charge. The blues is their business and business is good.
This time, it would be different. This time a video would emerge. This time, WE THE PEOPLE would see what happened in OUR name, despite the police rhetoric and attempts to paint a different story:
We can't see the beginning altercation in the raw footage, though the witness was, in their personal space, moved enough to get out the camera phone and start filming. The raw film shows them with their camera lens moving across the chain-link fence that lined the crime scene. By the time they got the camera up to view, it's just in time. Scott and Slager appear to be already in some kind of struggle and Scott either knocks something off of Slager's uniform (as you can see it flying back) or it is the taser in question possibly being thrown at Slager. Scott begins to run, though he is, after all 50 and he looks tired and could easily be tackled by an officer in proper shape.
No matter what happened before, even if Scott was guilty of murder, an arresting officer has zero right to even draw his firearm on an unarmed man, let alone play Judge or even God. If you believe in the Constitution, than you let the Courts decide their fate. Your job as an officer is to subdue, not kill.
Instead, Slager draws his firearm, does not fire a warning shot, and instead fires 8 rounds without barely moving from the original spot. Enough hit Scott to fatally kill him.
As Scott lay dying, Slager handcuffs him (gee, why would he do that?), then appears to go back for one of the two black objects left at the scene (very probably the tazer) of the original struggle 20 feet away and appears to drop it by Scott's side while the last moments of consciousness left him, which is extraordinarily deplorable to the point of sickening villany, especially as another officer walks up, witnessing what was Slager's best chance to frame the incident to the story he was getting ready to tell. That is cold blood, and warrants a first-degree murder charge to at least be filed.
We will never know what happened between Scott and Slager that incited Scott getting shot in the back. Though it could be anything from a personal experience between the two to a random incident gone out of control. In any case, no drugs were reported found and there seemed to be nothing in any of the information that has leaked out over the last few days that the cop could muster in his defense of playing God.
Again, sound familiar?
Only this time, the Killer Cop was arrested for murder.
Not Just Another "Justifiable Homicide"
Why was it different this time?
For starters, Trayvon Martin, Michael Brown and Eric Garner brought the attention of one of America's deepest and darkest secrets out into the open. That police act as judge, jury and executioner quite a bit in this country (a hell of a lot more than get executed by legal means). Even the corporate McPaper USA Today said last year:
"Nearly two times a week in the United States, a white police officer killed a black person during a seven-year period ending in 2012, according to the most recent accounts of justifiable homicide reported to the FBI."
"Justifiable Homicide?" That's a thing?
This is the pop-up definition for "homicide":
hom·i·cide noun
So justifiable homicide literally means justifiable murder. Here I thought we were such a Christian nation that we could at least try to follow the 10 Commandments, you know, "Thou Shalt Not Kill", though apparently recent modern theologians are now saying that was mistranslated and should be "Thou Shalt Not Murder". Gee I sure hope they didn't get anything else wrong!
The USA Today goes on to average the number of African-Americans murdered, I mean justifiably murdered by police at around 400 a year as of August of last year. I know if you watched the news, you know it happened a lot more frequently than you care to remember, though this sounds a whole lot worse than what we've been hearing and many of these have been swept under the rug.
So again, in this different time, with the public interest peaked and apparently combined with the media's quest for ratings (under the profit motive) it brought the Nation's attention to this 'elephant in the room'.
So this time the issue was larger. The Scott case, that might otherwise have been another resisting arrest story, became New York Times material. The man who took the footage, at great risk, was immensely heroic in taking the footage, (and trust me, when you are filming cops doing an arrest, they look at you like you are burning an American flag, even when you are actually the one defending it, and the idea that the pointy end of the stick could be directed at you never leaves your mind or body). Filming, let alone coming forward with footage of cops committing a crime is in general is a terrifying prospect. Having footage of a cop committing a murder is unthinkable. Yet this unsung hero gave his footage to the family and they gave it to the New York Times. All in the name of Justice!
This turned a "justifiable homicide" by the government enforcement squad, aka the police, into just your plain old, run of the mill… MURDER.
Killer-Cops is the New Cop-Killer
Remember Ice T's "Cop Killer"? Remember how the conservatives wanted to arrest him? Today Ice T is a cop on Law & Order SVU and has been for well over 10 years. Times sure have changed!
Never mind that Ice T and Body Count's Cop Killer song was more about a fictional outlaw, you know, "I shot a man in Reno, just to watch him die", and it was about the absurd injustice in the post-Rodney King era. Never mind the NWA song Fuck the Police either. No, let's just get the lame President George HW Bush to call it out along with Tipper Gore, Dan Quayle and the rest of the Square police. That seemed to work… in the complete reverse.
When I was a kid, the vast majority of people that got shot by cops (that we knew of) were unrepentant bad guys on goofy TV crime-procedural-dramas. However since I grew up in LA, scary stories were never far away and even the D.A.R.E. officer once, after being asked the obvious kid question "did you kill anybody?" drifted into a flashback of his violent clash in South Central LA.
Yet we still turned to the lame good guy vs. bad guy cartoon fantasies. There the evil drug lord was always a genuine bad guy. Today, the cops seem to shoot people all the time on TV too. It's called the News, and it seems to happen far too much for a reasonable human to believe that so many "bad guys" would just brutally attack cops, especially with their reputation for shooting first and asking questions later. I mean seriously! You would have to be living under a rock to not know that nervous cops have been unloading clips into unarmed men, who tend to (though not always) be born with extra pigment in their skin.
Yet the conservative fanatics on Fox News claimed it was just "street-thugs" and made heroes of those that stood up to street violence like it was a Dirty Harry movie or something! As in Furguson, videos and photos leaked out of what a "thug" Michael Brown really was, just as it did with Trayvon Martin. That was enough to convict both, including one underage, to death by cop or douchebag. Suddenly, conservatives were bending over backwards to pin medals on people they didn't know anything about, over cases they never really understood, that violated the Constitutional right to due process that is afforded any citizen (then go on to whine about how the Constitution was being eroded by Obama, or Eric Holder or any other name they heard on the radio that day and whatever fake scandal that lives in their heads). I guess listening to braindead con-radio must be the easy way out. They managed to boil down most any violent, complicated incident into a brainless slurry you could consume with your coffee and cheer along as if it were an NFL Team: Team Anglo Warriors vs. Team Black Pirate Welfare Liberal Thugs. Can you guess which team they root for?
This isn't Officer Benson from Law & Order SVU who does what she has to do take down sex criminals. No cop should kill any prisoner unless a life is threatened. Whatever happened to a warning shot? They even do that in the worst crappy TV shows (because only a coward guns down an unarmed man)! Though what's far worse, what happened to not using your gun unless you are fired upon? From all the reports, it seems there are far too many cops who would use their guns as a can opener to stop the international invasion of creamed corn, and life seems extremely cheap to them.
Has that been the way our "officers of the peace" have always been and we are just now catching it on tape? Or have our cops become militarized by the excessive military hardware they are getting at surplus from the Armed Forces?
How about both!
The Homeland or Prison Industrial Complex
There is a huge connection between what conservatives call "justice" and what has become known as the Prison Industrial Complex. Building prisons, rounding people up, making money on their collect calls, selling tasers and law enforcement weapons, all a huge booming business. Even in supposedly Liberal California, the prison system costs more than the grade school, community college, all supporting occupational schools / programs and public University systems combined (that even includes the elite ones like UCLA, UCI, UCSD, etc.).
We jail more people in America both 1.) per capita and 2.) total population of criminals than even China (which has almost 5 times our population). America also seems to execute a great deal of its criminals before they can even get their right to due process. Remember, not everyone that is arrested is guilty. The idea that the justice system makes mistakes was an ideal of the Founding Fathers, like John Adams and Thomas Jefferson. They faced the similar torture used at the end of the film Braveheart for what they had done long before even declaring independence.
Is this what democracy is supposed to be about?
How many more American's must we sacrifice before we wake up to the reality of what is going on?
Published on: Apr 8, 2015 @ 5:58
Update: Slager has been fired after his murder charge and Scott was apparently facing a low value bench warrant for outstanding child support payments. As his family has stated: It has also come out that both men were Coast Guard Veterans.

asked to review your chosen community of
practices shared repertoire and domain of
knowledge to find one key example of work
that resonates with you to use as a starting
point. This could be a piece of practical
work, a central theory, concept, a common
method or approach, a key text from a book,
magazine, website, blog etc or a quote or
extract from a speech or presentation by a
key participant of the community of practice"
For my community of practice I chose concept art and for the key of example of work I chose the concept art from the video game infamous, part of the project also suggests we get industry evaluation so any feedback would be great. Thanks. =]

Aston Martin V8 Vantage GT4 Gets Updates for 2011
Striving to keep its cars competitive, Aston Martin Racing has announced a list of updates for its V8 Vantage GT4 race car. Retaining the same 4.7-liter V8 engine, the track machine gets a remapped ECU for improved horsepower and torque.
In addition, numerous aerodynamic changes have been made, which are actually adaptations from the V12 Vantage street car. Included in the updates are a new splitter that increases downforce on the front axle, while helping to feed more air to the brake cooling ducts. A larger integrated rear lip on the trunk, as well as a new carbon fiber diffuser and rear undercarriage tray increase downforce and reduce lift at the back of the car while channeling more air to the transmission cooler.
In addition, Aston Martin has partnered with Bosch for 2011 on a new ABS and traction control system designed to give better grip in both dry and wet weather.
Over the past two years Aston Martin Racing has built 80 GT4 cars for teams around the world, which have been incredibly successful, winning the 2010 GT4 Cup and the GT4 Class at the Dubai 24 Hours, the Nürburgring 24 Hours and the Spa 24 hours.
GALLERY: Aston Martin V8 Vantage GT4
Official release after the jump:
Gaydon, 25 November 2010. Aston Martin Racing has launched a new Vantage GT4 for 2011. The new V8 engined racing car takes design inspiration from Aston Martin's V12 Vantage road car, giving it enhanced aerodynamics and increased downforce. It also has a remapped 4.7 litre engine offering increased levels of power and torque.
As with the current 4.7 litre Vantage GT4, which made its race debut in 2009, the 2011 car is closely based on the V8 Vantage road car with key attributes being carried over including the aluminium chassis, base engine and suspension design. In addition to the engine and aero upgrades, competitors can, for the first time, choose a race-developed Bosch ABS and traction control system. This system has been specifically optimised by Bosch Motorsport for the Vantage GT4 to provide race-enhanced performance in both wet and dry conditions.
The Vantage GT4's new splitter increases downforce at the front of the car, as well as channelling cooling air to the brakes and radiator. At the rear, the car gains the V12's larger boot 'flip'. This works together with a new carbon fibre diffuser and rear underfloor, which create an area of low pressure under the rear of the car, to increase downforce. The redesigned underfloor also channels more air through a new rear-mounted high capacity transmission oil cooler.
Aston Martin Racing has built and sold more than 80 Vantage GT4s to customers around the world in the last two years and it has become the most successful car in its class. In 2010, it won the European GT4 Cup as well as the GT4 class at the Dubai 24 Hours, the Nürburgring 24 Hours and the Spa 24 hours. The car also has its own one-make series, the Aston Martin GT4 Challenge of Great Britain, which was won in its inaugural year by Chris and Ant Scragg. The new Vantage GT4 will be eligible for this Challenge, as well as the European GT4 Cup and all other series with a GT4 class.

Buzz has it that Ranveer Singh and Zoya Akhtar will yet again collaborate for a film. And rumour has it that Ranveer will essay the role of a rapper in Zoya's next.
From playing a wedding planner to a warrior on 70mm, Ranveer Singh has experimented with varied roles on the silver screen. And if reports are to be believed, the 30-year-old actor will now essay the role of a rapper in Zoya Akhtar's next.
According to a report in Mumbai Mirror, Ranveer is all set to give competition to desi rappers like Yo Yo Honey Singh and Baadshah as the Dil Dhadakne Do actor will soon take on the role of a rapper. Tentatively titled, Gully Boy, the film revolves around an underdog who rises from the slums of Mumbai to become a rapper.
But he isn't your regular rapper who talks about women and booze. The Gully Boy has a heart and a voice that addresses Dalit oppression, street life, economic inequality and homosexuality. He even takes on corrupt politicians.
In fact, buzz has it that Ranveer's role is inspired from real life rappers like Divine and Naezy from Mumbai. A source was quoted as telling the tabloid, "The film is inspired by real life rappers like Divine and Naezy whose work has ranged from speaking about petty crimes in their respective Mumbai neighbourhoods of Kurla and Andheri to sharing stories about finding a voice and becoming activists."
The film is in its scripting stage and is expected to go on floors next year.
Zoya has worked with Ranveer in the 2015 film Dil Dhadakne Do and the two have been vocal about their fondness for each other. In fact, the two have also expressed the desire to work again and it seems Gully Boy is the perfect platform for them to work together once again.
Meanwhile, Ranveer is currently busy shooting for Aditya Chopra's directorial venture Befikre in Paris. The actor will romance Vaani Kapoor in the love story and the film is set to release on December 9, 2016.

Pacific Symphony Opens 35th Season with 19-Year-Old Pianist, Conrad Tao, 9/26
Pacific Symphony celebrates its 35th anniversary season by opening with a concert featuring the stunning virtuosity of 19-year-old piano phenomenon Conrad Tao, who returns for his third appearance to perform Rachmaninoff's powerful Piano Concerto No. 3, featured in the 1996 hit movie "Shine." Led by Music Director Carl St.Clair, the concert takes place Thursday through Saturday, Sept. 26-28, at 8 p.m., in the Renée and Henry Segerstrom Concert Hall.
An acclaimed pianist himself, Rachmaninoff wrote and debuted this dazzling showpiece for his North American tour in 1909. Tao-hailed as both an "exciting prodigy" and "breathtaking"- is sure to give a jaw-dropping performance when he tackles this piece, one of the repertoire's most powerful, most demanding and most loved works. Fittingly, the evening opens with the short and jubilant "Festivities" by California-based composer Peter Boyer and concludes with Brahms' monumental Symphony No. 4, sweeping with melodic writing and dual emotions of joy and sorrow.
As Rachmaninoff's close friend Clara Schumann observed of the music: "It is as though one lay in springtime among the blossoming flowers, and joy and sorrow filled one's soul in turn." Season-ticket packages for the Classical series are $240-$975. Single tickets for this concert are $25-$99. A preview talk with Alan Chapman begins at 7 p.m. For more information or to purchase tickets, call (714) 755-5799 or visit PacificSymphony.org.
"It is always a wonderful moment to welcome the return of a new season and to greet our faithful audience back to the hall, as well as new family members, after a summer under the stars," says Maestro St.Clair. "For the orchestra, celebrating our 35th Anniversary is a milestone. It also symbolizes the importance the Symphony has grown to have within our community. Conrad is an exciting artist and we love having him perform with our orchestra. It will be especially memorable to have him open our season with Rachmaninoff's Third Piano Concerto, a favorite of almost everyone. And offering a masterwork like the Fourth Symphony of Johannes Brahms is also a wonderful way to say 'welcome back.'"
An opening night celebration, "Rachmaninoff-From Russia with Love," takes place Thursday, Sept. 26, beginning at 5 p.m., at the Center Club in Costa Mesa, and includes a delectable dinner, concert and post-concert reception with desserts and entertainment (including dancers from UC-Irvine)-all wrapped in Russian elegance. The event's presenting sponsor is South Coast Plaza and OMEGA at Tourbillon Boutique is the retail partner. For more information about purchasing a table or individual seats and concert tickets, contact the Symphony's special events department at (714) 876-2364 or firstname.lastname@example.com.
Last but not least, Tao returns for a fourth performance and the start of the Sunday Connections series, "Rach 3 Revealed," on Sunday, Sept. 26, at 3 p.m. Maestro St.Clair serves as host to bring the composer and his music-one of the most difficult and most beautiful concertos in the repertoire-to life. Sunday Connections (full of personal and insightful commentary) four-concert season packages are $85-$285. Single tickets are $25-$85. For more information or to purchase subscriptions or single tickets, call (714) 755-5799 or visit www.PacificSymphony.org.
"Most of my time is spent trying to understand the work structurally-it's a huge piece!-so that I can feel free, in performance, to be spontaneous and impulsive," says the dynamic pianist, Tao. "It's an incredibly colorful piece filled with ageless melodies...which equals endless possibilities...which equals endless fun for me! I'm looking forward to working with Carl St.Clair again! The past two experiences were galvanizing music-making and I'm excited for more."

Something Local Japanese Festivals and How They Celebrates-1 by Sharon
Jidai Matsuri
Jidai Matsuri, usually acknowledged within UK because The Festivity regarding Age ranges was made within Kyoto in the event the funds had been moved from there for you to Tokyo , Japan. And when there is anything at all any Kansai denizen dislikes, it really is missing out to Tokyo(Dejesus, perhaps this is the time the particular rivalry commenced). Therefore Kyoto chose to commemorate that it is illustrious history since the capitol regarding Japan which has a festivity adoring these periods? Which is actually nearly all of Western record, in addition.
Precisely what this particular generally resulted in has been probably the most renowned geisha of the geisha-capitol involving Okazaki, Japan dressing up in painstakingly comprehensive and lovely interval costumes for an extravagant attend. If you were ever wondering to see what sort of heck women in the twelve-layer junihitoe in the Heian interval truly would anything at all, this is the opportunity(although answer to that's They did not carry out very much at all). You will see just about any traditional determine taken most likely lots of times far more beautiful as well as passionate than they will ever had been in real life. Anyone, perhaps and not using a coat of data of Japan, can easily value your exorbitantly costly and also spectacular graphic exhibit. For someone would you realize a certain amount of background, they will most likely obtain Stendhal Symptoms in the physical clog. The parade associated with Jidai Matsuri is certainly not in short supply of an art and craft art gallery come to life and also going for walks down the street. It's the most rich along with spectacular regarding Kyoto's neighborhood parades, as well as offered Gion Matsuri among others, that is certainly stating one thing huge.
Sapporo Snow Festival
Normally n. Okazaki, Japan inside wintertime wouldn't be well worth the cool (no less than to this Southerner), however the Sapporo Snow Event pulls with regards to two thousand men and women each year to determine mind-bending sculptures involving ice. Ice Sculptures might appear to be a new misnomer for a lot of of these although, considering that far more appropriate information could be ice buildings. Actually wanted to go to the Unacceptable Palace regarding China? Effectively, here is a size duplicate. Actually desired to drink as well as perform karaoke in a tavern made completely beyond glaciers? You will. The actual accurate, efforts, as well as ability is actually totally beautiful, specifically something that is going to inevitably burn away. Possibly Buddhist monks need to swap coming from yellow sand artwork in order to snow statues to produce the particular impermanence involving lifestyle.
Granted Japan adore associated with shaved its polar environment, I am just kind of surprised that the musicians do not take this one step additional along with coloring the idea with syrup? But next we'd possibly provide an epidemic of youngsters along with caught tongues. Instead, children are educated how to make igloos, ride snow photo slides designed for your occasion, and enjoy the breath-taking sculptures nearly as much as the grownups. All things considered, a lot of the sculptures tend to be from the exciting as well as comfortable: Wallace and Gromit, Mickey, The actual Stories regarding Narnia, the figures coming from Spirited Aside, and many others. Make an effort to avoid studying the festival together with your oral cavity agape, since the following see your face might freeze like that.
Kanamara Matsuri
A number of anyone, as i am, may normally experience far more sexually-evolved when compared with most people, particularly a good open breast directs a full nation straight into stress. Well, the massive phallus becoming paraded along the actual streets with Kanamara Matsuri is here now in order to knock an individual as a result of sizing since the Victorian-era prude you really are. And its particular not only your decoration possibly: manhood statues, male organ candies, nice vulva rice balls, and merely with regards to all you could may think about becoming fashioned into genitals. It's like that youngster via Superbad was handed total control of each bachelorette celebration trick ever made.
The veneration in the manhood only at that shrine has occurred for quite some time as well as for many different reasons? Do fertility, effortless delivery, couple harmony affluence, capacity disease? But the actual prevalent one particular entails an account. Evidently, tale claims that there is each young lady lived on by a demon that castrated 2 guys about everyone of his or her wedding party evenings right up until a blacksmith designed a great straightened phallus to interrupt your demon's the teeth. The next individual who asks me, why you just like Japan a great deal is going to have this tale verbatim; you can't make-up stuff this great.
Now imagine what the Victorian Commodore Perry saw while he soon started inhabiting the area, understanding given that your West largely got the japanese to be able to turn it down after that. Based on one particular idea, the actual well-known Maneki Neko you see within concerning every Japanese company has been initially intended to disguise the usual good-luck male organs using the cat's upraised equip(now you'll never check out these the same way once again). Because of this, your Kanamara Matsuri is the better destination to force oneself over your traditions surprise and also haze oneself directly into having a good time. Once you at some point encourage yourself that will stuffing my face with penis chocolate will not likely turn out across the internet, you can get to the heart of items. Carve penis-daikon radishes, present for a photograph on the giant rideable Wang, dancing by she-males, as well as provide a prayer towards the easily transportable male organ shrine. Not just that, but the festivity these days is used to improve cash regarding HIV investigation, and you will without doubt contain the best getaway slideshow grandpa's ever before witnessed.

Review McNeese State University
I am currently a sophomore at McNeese State and have overall positive views about the university. I've liked every single professor I've had so far and hope it remains that way. The professors are very understanding and give enough time to finish any work given. I would like to see the Criminal Justice department expand. There aren't that many teachers that work in this department so they have to switch off all the time. The university is nice but it could be nicer, the buildings need remodeling. I enjoy being at McNeese and would choose it over again if I had to!
Overall, my experience with McNeese State University has been mostly positive. I like that, in my particular program, the professors are understanding and willing to do all that they can to ensure that you will succeed. My school also alerts students when it comes to employment opportunities, although they are usually in the area of the school location, which is still advantageous for those who may attend school in-person or live in close proximity. My school is great when it comes to helping us with opportunities for learning too. I also like that we get assistance with internships required for our program instead of being on our on when looking for them too. What I would change about my school would be the increase awareness of tuition so students have a better understanding and know what to expect with tuition. Sometimes fee info isn't available timely, and results in less time to accrue money for school expenses, and payment arrangements aren't too flexible.
This is my first year at MSU and I absolutely love it! Yes it is most defiantly a challenge but if you apply yourself and pay attention you will do fine. What I love most about MSU is the people. They are super nice and friendly. The professors are normal professors the do there job but they also like to make sure they are clear about the subjects they teach. I'm so glade I chose MSU, wouldn't change it for the world. Geaux Pokes!

In spite of the Movie Guide's less than glowing review of the films portrayal of the Babe's personal life, (undoubtedly true), the film's depiction of Babe Ruth's accomplishments even in his less than glorious waning years is worth watching. Evidently the Babe had a never give up spirit that all ages can admire to accompany his extrordinary baseball skills. The performance by John Goodman as Babe Ruth was worthy of an Oscar, and worth viewing the film for that alone. This is equal to the film,The Natural and perhaps better simply because it was based on a real person.

Neem Oil Soap, Maximum Strength
Neem oil is a pressed oil, long used in India, that is said to be great for the skin. Over the years, it has been use for various therapeutic purposes, including treatment of various skin diseases (including acne), inflammations and fevers, as an insect repellent.
As far as I'm concerned, this is the quintessential Irish import. Soap that leaves your skin better than found. Made from real lanolin extracted from wool fat (that doesn't harm the animal in the process). Nice.
My skin is super sensitive and i swell and rash up at the drop of a hat. Dr. Bronner's soap is gentle and refreshing and doesn't have a truck load full of chemicals that would compromise my fair condition.Added 9 Years Ago from Amazon.com

By Andrea Stone, USA TODAY
Former first lady Nancy Reagan waited nearly a week after falling in her home before seeking treatment for what doctors diagnosed as a broken pelvis, a friend said Wednesday.
"She's a trouper. She's not a complainer," said Reagan biographer Bob Colacello, who spoke with her by phone Sunday. He said Reagan told him she fell in the middle of the night Oct. 7 but didn't think she broke a bone. "She said, 'I'm bruised, but it doesn't show,' " he said.
Reagan, 87, checked into Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center on Monday after "experiencing persistent pain," spokeswoman Joanne Drake said in a statement. She will remain in the hospital "for a few days — until doctors are satisfied with her progress — and then return home," Drake said.
Drake said Reagan will need six to eight weeks to recover. Doctors ruled out surgery, prescribing physical therapy and a modified schedule.
"She's in some pain but in very good spirits," Drake said.
Reagan has appeared frail in her recent, and increasingly rare, public appearances. In February, she was hospitalized for a similar fall at the Bel Air home she shared with former president Ronald Reagan after they left the White House until he died in 2004. Despite fears then that she had fractured her hip, tests showed no break.
Sheila Tate, who was the first lady's press secretary, said Reagan planned to watch Wednesday's presidential debate in her hospital room.
Colacello, a Vanity Fair magazine writer, said Reagan recently had laser treatment for glaucoma. "She's like a lot of older people with eyesight problems who have a hard time actually seeing the floor," he said.

The NBA is attempting to swat away any claims by members of the press that the league is lying about losing money over the last several years.
Nate Silver, the primary author of the The New York Times blog Five Thirty Eight, authored an item on Tuesday morning based on data from Forbes magazine and a piece by contributor Dr. Patrick Rishe.
Silver wrote that based on Forbes' estimates for the 2009-10 season, the teams generated a $183 million profit and not the $340 million in losses the league claims, noting that is "the difference between the two numbers is roughly of the same size on an annual basis as the salary concessions the NBA is seeking."
Silver then listed several reasons why fans should be "skeptical" of the NBA's figures, most notably citing that the league's data hasn't been released to the public and explaining that the owners shouldn't be complaining about the most recent CBA, since its fundamentals have been in place since was signed in 1999 and renewed in 2005.
Tuesday night, NBA spokesman Tim Frank sent Silver a statement disputing the Forbes data and analysis and several of Silver's claims suggesting the NBA's figures are "skeptical."
Getting down to business immediately, Frank told Silver, "The information from Forbes that serves as the basis for this article is inaccurate and we do not know how they do their calculations." Frank also noted Silver's item had "several significant factual inaccuracies," pulling out eight specific claims and providing statistics and information disputing them.
The league then reworded the statement and released it on NBA.com early Wednesday morning, keeping what it believes to be Silver's inaccuracies in tact.
Silver responded, in part, by saying the league released information it hadn't before.
... I simply have no way to adjudicate the NBA's claims. Mr. Frank's statement includes several specific claims that have the league has not made publicly before, but in general the league has not made substantial detail on its financial condition, or its accounting procedures, available to the general public.
He also still believes "a degree of skepticism is appropriate toward any claims made about the NBA's finances.

Does anyone have any specific knowledge on the weekly XP cap?
My question is, as soon as I log in, am I running down the XP timer?
Since the cap only affects one job, to most efficiently level a job, should I run with a job I don't care about until the moment I'm about to make a lot of xp and then switch?
I'm interested in picking this game up, but I'm worried about whether I'm going to have to game the system to stay competitive.

Brigid Seated Goddess Statue
By Abby Willowroot
Brigid, also known as Brigit, Brighid, Brigid, Bride, Breed, Birdie, Brigantia, Brittania, and St. Brigit. She is the female heart of Ireland, though hHer worship spread far beyond its borders.
Bridget is Goddess of the Forge. She is the Mother of Inspiration, Healing, Poetry and Smithcraft. Known as a powerful Fire Goddess, Brigit she is also a Water Goddess, She presides over fertility and childbirth as well as all forms of creation. Cattle, horses, sacred wells, stones, herbs and trees are among the symbols most often associated with Brigit.
February 2nd, known as Imbolc, is sacred to Brigit, as February 1st is the sacred day of St. Brigit. Her presence is felt, and still worshiped at Her sacred wells, and at Kildare where an eternal flame still burns in Brigit's honor. Brigit is a Goddess of vision, justice, harmony and strength, bringing inspiration to poets, skill to healers and strength to warriors.
Brigit, the "Exalted One", Protectress of Mothers and children, is depicted sitting upon an anvil, symbol of the forge and smiths. In Her hand she carries herbs of healing. Her hair is partially plated in a three strand braid signifying the triple natures of creation, inspiration and healing as well as the triple elements of the ancient Isles, Earth, Water and Fire, all elements presided over by the Great Goddess. The four armed "Brigit's Cross" ornaments the anvil, upon which rest hammer, tongs and sword.
Made of resin and finished in antique white stone color, she is approximately 5 3/4 inches.

I'm living in KC right now and I'm going to be in San Diego on the 29th, 30th, and 31st. I really love authentic Mexican food, but I probably haven't seen anything like I will when I go to California for the first time here in about a week. I will be road-tripping, so I will be going through Albuquerque and Pheonix and that area.
If you have any great suggestions for places I HAVE to stop, let me know.
I'm looking for something you might see on Diners Drive-Ins and Dives, or something that I might get from a local vendor. Maybe even a local chain. Nothing too pricy, but something that I will be able to tell stories about forever. If there is some 7 pound burrito or the most amazing fish tacos or the hottest salsa in the world or something like that?.?? That is what I'm looking for.

In Shadi Ghadirian's Qajar series, the models pose with modern props in Iranian dress and against backgrounds which recall the Qajar era in nineteenth century Iran . The images appear to depict a conscious choice on the part of the women. What we see are constructed images of her own gender, at a particular moment in history, created by a young Iranian woman. They explore the notion of the 'western image of eastern woman' and their personal alienation.
"Perhaps the only mentality of an outsider about the Iranian woman is a black chador; however I try to portray all the aspects of the Iranian women. The duality and contradiction of life provides the motive for me to display this contrast: a woman who one cannot say to what time she belongs; a photograph from two eras; a woman who is dazed; a woman who is not connected to the objects in her possession. It was very natural that after marriage, vacuum cleaners, pots and pans find their way into my photographs. The woman, here, is convicted of a daily repetitive routine and for this reason I named the series "Like Every Day. The photographs are not authentic documentations but deal with current social issues." (Shadi Ghadirian)

So, without further adieu, here are my fashionable 45 items, sure to turn your wardrobe into
something fabulous.
The Clothes:1) A pair of dark wash skinny jeans. They are the ever so flattering and well as flirty jean. Tuck them into boots, cuff them with flats… think of them as the swiss army knife of your denim collection.
2) The chambray top. Timeless and ever so versatile. I got my first one this spring, and I don't know how I dressed without it. It should be fitted but yet not tight. Wear them alone, layer them under or over. The possibilities are endless.
3) The sexy, skimming the ground flare jean. This should be really flattering and be long enough to wear with heels. Perfect for a polished look or a boho goddess look.
4) The perfect white blouse. Enough said. But seriously, this will save your "I-do-not-know-what-to-wear-today-dilemas." Wear with anything: scarves, necklaces, shorts, colored jeans, skinny jeans, cords ANYTHING.
5) The striped long sleeve. This nautical staple is also 100% Americano. Always comfortable, as gives that easy chic vibe that everyone wants. Great for the day-to-day grind, but in a timeless fashion. I have a black and white one that is just long enough to wear with leggings, boots, and a sock bun. So good.
6) A black boyfriend blazer. I like mine with 3/4 sleeves and a streamlined shape. It creates insta-polish in any outfit. Wear to work… or over a cocktail dress. The choice is yours.
7) A pair of colored jeans. Ya I know what you are thinking, "They are so trendy". But I think you can make anything work with a dose of confidence. Patronize a hue that is a jewel tone or a bold red.
8) The LBD. Get one that has a little extra oomph. Whether it's a peplum detail, a little lace, a cut out. Make it anything but boring. Mine is a very traditional, professional cut, with a bow waistband. This is something to splurge on!
9) The leather jacket. Goes with everything and is light enough to wear in the fall and spring.
10) A jean jacket. Think all-American girl. It also would go great with that striped shirt… You think your jeans are versatile? A jean jacket is just the outerwear counter part.
11) A pair of nice denim shorts. The right pair just looks good on everyone and can be dressed up or down. Avoid going too short, unless you want to buy more than one pair.
12) A patterned skirt. Ideal hem lengths vary for everyone, but avoid an extreme mini skirt. This could be dressed up for drinks or dressed down for every day.
13) The perfect white tee-shirt. It is the basic piece that many outfits will build on. My favorite is neither too tight or too loose. I love a v-neck cut.
14) A great day dress. Get one that works with your body… not against it. Make sure it is light weight so it is easy to layer.
15) A big chunky sweater. Great for the cooler days. Its über comfortable and can be completely chic, with jeans, leggings, boots, flat.s
16) A striped blazer. This may not strike you as a "must-have" piece, but after getting mine, I know I can't live without it. I could wear it 100 different ways, easily.
17) Black skinny jeans. Sexy, dark, slim fitting. Perfection.
18) A crew neck sweater. Get some that are infused with personality. Maybe a french saying, a color blocked version, or a cute embellishment.
19) The "I'm sexy and I know it" dress. For the days you want to ditch the LBD. Something flirty and fun that makes you feel drop dead gorgeous. A little over the top is great. Throw practicality out the window and invite frivolousness in.
20) A pencil skirt. It should hit the knee or slightly above. It also should be tailored to perfection, displaying your curves but definitely not skin-tight. Great for work, social gatherings or a classy cocktail hour.
21)A pea coat jacket. It will be in style forever. Make sure it has shape and doesn't make you look like a box.
22) A "fun" winter jacket. Mine is a bright, colbalt blue wool. It was my grandmother's and it just looks good. Absolute timeless vintage for when you need to be dressed up AND warm
23) Lets talk boobs. You need a strapless nude bra. It will save you. And in case you all didn't get the memo: never wear white under white.
24) A seductive bra. This is different for everyone. This should make you feel like a Victoria's Secret model.
Side note - I buy almost all of my underwear in sets. I just feel more put together when my underwear matches. Calm me crazy, but I recommend it.
25) The no-show underwear. For all the tighter things in your wardrobe. Choose something in a nude hue that is seamless, it will do the job well.
The Accessories26) A black thin waist belt. It pulls you in at all the right places and could make a burlap sack flattering.
27) A hat. It honestly isn't that practica, until the day you wake up with awful hair. Then you wish
you had that fedora you admired at the store. Buy the hat.
28)A great pair of gloves. Make them special. If you live in a place with snow, feel free to splurge. Mine are red leather with a bow at the wrist.
29) An infinity scarf. It is just as comfortable as it is fashionable (which is a surprisingly hard combination to find).
30) A small purse. It can be crossbody or a shoulder bag, but it should be small enough for your wallet, celly, sunglasses, and chapstick. This is good for traveling and you really just want to be carrying the essentials, close to your body.
31) A cross body bag. When you want something to carry more stuff in. I had a friend just go to Europe and I am going in a year and the need for a larger cross body bag is very real.
32) A clutch. For me, I have a big ass wallet in a fun print so I cheat on this one sometimes, but I also have a blue velvet clutch and silver vintage clutch I got as a gift. For when you're going out, or just want to look a little more put together than your bulky bags.
33) A tote. As a student, I find this important. I have a backpack, but there are days when I don't want to lug the thing around and I have too much for my bag. I splurged on this item and I have a PanAM bag from Modcloth, but you can get them cheaply. And it's good to have for school, overnight trips, beach days, whatever.
34) Stackable rings. I love the versatility they provide. You could wear one on every single finger if you wanted, or all on one. They give luring intricacies to any outfit. Mine are bright, colored chevrons.
35) A pair of diamond studs. This piece you will honestly be able to wear forever and are the epitome of classic timelessness. I'm not saying you need 2 carat ones, just ones that add a little sparkle.
36) Pearl studs. Think Audrey, go for a classy little extra that is the blank slate of accessories. Just control yourselves, bypass the gaudy fake ones.
37) A chain necklace. It is sexy and streamlined all in one accessory. It adds a little je ne sais quoi to your demeanor, whether it's just a chain, or have a charm on it. It just looks nice.
38) Layerable bracelets. The deliver a dose of fun to any outfit. Choose ones that "go" and not necessarily "match" to strike the perfect style note. I have ones that are jeweled, spiked, chained and are a simple so I can match them to my style of the moment.
39) Sunglasses.And have more than one style and color. Just because Raybans match your bikini does not mean you have to wear exclusively them. I have Raybans, aviators, and some trendy ones.
The Shoes40) The black pump. This is the one shoe that exudes equal parts confidence and classiness. It will bring you far. That make-or-break interview: done. That date with a guy you have been ogling over forever? Perfect. Paired with jeans, the perfect mix between trying and the ease of not trying (so hard that is). One piece of advice: invest. If you can stretch your budget, proceed confidently.
41) Converse. Just buy them. Wherever you can find them. They are so worth it.
42) Strappy Sandals. Lets make something clear, shall we? This does not mean flip-flops. Why settle for a fashion flop when you could be wearing a sophisticated sandal, sans that annoying smacking sound. I love ones that include a little metal or leather detail.
43) The ankle bootie. I love the "cute-factor" that goes along with this style. Wear them with cuffed jeans, skinny jeans, shorts, dresses, whatever actually. It delivers a bit of attitude, which I thoroughly enjoy.
44) The ballet flat. Take your pick of colors, but have the basis of taupe, nude and black covered. I swear I could run a marathon in these… ok, maybe not. But for sure a major shopping spree.
45) The nude heel. Not only do these pretties make your legs look runway-worthy, but they go with just about anything. The prettiest and parable shoe you will ever come across. If you tend to look like a baby giraffe walking on ice when in heels, I would go with a wedge. Baby steps, people.
This is simply just a mental check-list you should have in the back of your mind. What do you already have? Awesome. What don't you have? And let's make something clear… these aren't items that you need to go buy right away. This is a tentative list to put you in the fashionable direction.
Oh and just a side note as to why there are more accessories than the clothing pieces themself. To this, I can say that I honestly wholeheartedly believe accessories are more important than clothing because it is the details of an outfit that turn it from clothing to having and exuding style.

The Call Blocker service gives you free unlimited blocking of nuisance and sales calls. As well as costing you nothing, there are no restrictions on how many numbers you can block.
You can even choose between blocking specific numbers and blocking a whole number range, such as all 0845 or 090 numbers, giving you the freedom to answer genuine calls without worrying about repeat cold-callers again.
Just logon to your account, and click Call Blocker. Now type in the number you want to block and add a label to remind you about the caller. Then press the BLOCK button. You can also apply blocking to just one number or for 'All Numbers' contained in your account. Next time blocked callers dial they hear a message informing them that you are not available.
Alternatively, if you enable the "mid-call blocking" feature on this page, then you can just dial during any call to block it instantly. The mid-call blocker is not only quick, it also lets you block callers who withhold their number!


text: It was about time someone made an alternative book of music lists. What we really need now is a list of books of music lists. Eventually there would be many competing such lists. Then you'd be able to publish them all together in a book: a book of lists of books of music lists. For now, we can at least browse through some of the tunes and tunesters admired by writers such as Hari Kunzru (Public Enemy and Serge Gainsbourg), Jonathan Lethem (Dylan's "Ballad of a Thin Man" is apparently "full of [. . .] guilty blow-jobs"), or Michel Faber, who thrillingly champions Malcolm McLaren's album Paris over "the numbskulled Never Mind the Bollocks". There are bound to be things in here you haven't heard but now want to. I'd advise you to make a list, but we know where that leads.
