Armed with an enviable list of accomplishments in the worlds of sales, styling and branding Andie Verbance recently started up her own showroom/agency, By Land And Sea. We caught up with the lively lady to ask her about her new business, her current obsessions and how to have fun and make it in the tough, tough world of fashion.
Tell us about By Land and Sea. What's the concept behind the company?
The overall concept behind the company is to provide highly personalized attention to growing apparel brands and help them flourish. The name pays tribute to how brands travel from designers to customers all over the world. It's also an homage to exploration and travel; we are a globally minded agency in every way.
What services do you provide?
The main focus at BL+S is sales, however we also are able to offer services such as consulting in hemisphere transition, season and product development and direct from market feedback. We also work closely with really incredible distribution and PR companies based in LA and have capabilities of providing a 360 approach for brands.
What kind of brands do you hope to represent?
I feel that it is important to work with brands who are seeking a partnership, whether domestically or internationally. I want them to feel that by Land + Sea is an extension of their brand and know that we will always work together with the same intention.
Who are your current clients?
Brands who will be participating in this season's (capsule) Show include Barber, LBT-LBT, Pfeiffer, Theron Cashmere, Foley & Keane scarves and kimonos and Capri.Positano sandals. I also have two brands showing at Coterie this season - Garbe Luxe and Blanc Noir.
Being an entrepreneur is tough. What are some things you had to learn in the start up phase?
I take a strategic approach in all aspects: workload, financials, brand planning, scheduling. I believe it is important to fuse a creative vision with a strong business plan so that there is a backbone in everything we do.
More than ever I have learned that being an entrepreneur is about team work, not only with who is on your direct team but everyone who supports you along the way. It is so exciting to feel inspired, encouraged and challenged by everyone around you. I have learned so much from friends and colleagues in and outside of the industry.
Who or what is having a major impact on fashion right now?
Right now it's all about the incorporation of activewear, and I am a huge supporter of this trend. It's really nice to contribute to the trend by sporting Nike Air Max 90s at tradeshows now in lieu of heels!
About Andie:
How do you describe your personal style?
Relaxed basics in varying shades of black, grey or nude with a leather jacket, vintage jewelry and of course my tattoos. I am always on the hunt for classic go-to items that are the perfect blend of fashion and comfort for travel.
Currently reading:
Travel books on Greece and Turkey. One of my lovely designers is getting married in Greece this August, so I am trying to squeeze in my travel plans
Currently wearing:
Oversized white linen tee, Frame Distressed Moto Denim and Black Double Strap Birkenstocks.
Currently listening to:
Jungle, FKA Twigs, Blood Orange and Flume
Why did you decide to work in fashion?
I love the fast-pace, challenging nature of fashion. I always knew I would choose a career where every single day is exciting and different. I suppose it is also necessary to mention another intriguing element of our industry - the travel (of course). Sales for and to international accounts makes the world so small and I love how in one day I can be in touch with and work clients from all over the globe.

This was a great movie. I particularly like the fact that a normal sibling relationship was shown, the rivalry and disdain but still the reality that blood is thicker than water and no matter if you think that your brother or sister is a twerp, you still do anything for them. The family sticks together and although it is a very far-fetched concept, it was a movie both my children and I liked. It was filled with action and adventure but the good guys come out on top in the end against overwhelming odds. I think we could all use a little more optimism now and this movie delivers it. Carmen and Junie were not the impossibly perfect kids seen in most movies now. Nor were they brats who only care about themselves in other movies. They were too athletic to be real children, but I'd like to think that they are showing the kids seeing the movie that they can do anything that they put their mind to. Overall, a terrific family movie the kids will actually like-even though their parents do too.

Spy Kids
Action / Adventure / Comedy / Family / Sci-Fi
Gregorio and Ingrid are the two greatest secret agents the world has ever known: masters of disguise, mavens of invention, able to stop wars before they even start. Working for separate countries, they are sent to eliminate their most dangerous enemy...each other. But in an exotic corner of the world when they finally come face to face, they fall in love instead and embark on the most dangerous mission they have ever faced: raising a family. Now nine years later, after their retirement, having exchanged the adventure of espionage for parenthood, Gregorio and Ingrid Cortez are called back in to action. When their former colleagues, the world's most formidable spies, start disappearing one by one, the Cortez's are forced to take on techno-wizard Fegan Floop and his evil, egg-headed sidekick, Minion. But when the unthinkable happens and they too disappear, unfortunately there are only two people in the world who can rescue them...their kids.

Movie Reviews
Daft and silly but it doesn't take itself seriously once and is surprisingly fun for adults and older children
Fun for kids and their parents, good for a family movie. *** (out of four)
SPY KIDS / (2001) *** (out of four)
By Blake French:
If James Bond married another secret agent, had kids, privately continued his life as a spy, became captured, and left his rescuing to his offspring, we would have the formula for Robert Rodriguez's new action adventure, "Spy Kids." Rodriguez normally directs harsher, more brutal movies, like "Desperado" and "The Faculty," but accustoms a slick style of adventure and humor in this film that exceeds past the level of any of his recent work. "Spy Kids" really does belong in some kind of James Bond picture.
As the film's writer, director, and co producer, Rodriguez does a lot more with the material here than we expect. The film has a stunning array of special effects, ranging from walking thumbs to a particularly imaginative experience in the villain's headquarters. Even the introduction has zest and intrigue: we meet a seemingly normal family of four, consisting of Ingrid and Gregorio Cortez (Alexa Vega and Antonio Banderas), and their children, probably middle school aged, Juni and Carmen (Daryl Sabara and Alexa Vega). As the movie opens, Ingrid tells her children a nice bedtime story about two daring spies assigned to kill the other, but fall in love, get married, and retire. She prepares her offspring for bed and turns the lights off, walks to her husband, and explains she thinks it would be a good idea to tell Carmen and Juni their real identities as top-secret spies; the story Ingrid enlightened her kids with was true.
Rodriguez quickly sketched his characters, but his method is surprisingly effective; the movie starts out with fast-paced action and captures our attention abruptly and does not really lose energy throughout its running time. We learn the two married spies have retired from the business nine years prior, but their fellow OSS agents are disappearing all over the world, and thinks it to be the work of a kids TV show host named Fegan Floop (Alan Cumming in a very whimsical, fitting performance) and his assistant, Minion (Tony Shalhoub). The agents have been converted into clay-like animated characters held captive at his mega tech laboratory. Imaginative and interesting, if a bit cheesy.
Ingrid and Gregorio call their "Uncle" Felix over to watch the kids while they go out on their latest mission. Unfortunately, this mission could be their last; they walk right into a trap and are snared from beneath their toes. Felix receives a distress call, sends the kids to a "safe house," but is captured himself, leaving the responsibilities to the younger members of the family.
The story isn't cheap or silly, although some of the material tests our tolerance for far-fetched science fiction. The underlying motives here are also legitimate. The movie puts confidence in strong family values, honesty, and trust, but does not preach, lecture, or on the other side of the barrel, become lost in an utter mess of silly dog poop and passing gas jokes like "See Spot Run." The movie takes itself seriously, and is well written. We understand the character's motives.
"Spy Kids" gets one thing painfully right, and that is the
relationship of the brother and sister. Their relationship is all too familiar in American households, where name calling and mean-spirited behavior inhabit offspring of both sexes. The petty little conflicts they feel strained and forced, giving this movie, otherwise somewhat mature, an immature sensation. This familiar stereotype is profoundly irritating.
"Spy Kids" is often exciting, funny, and almost always entertaining. It is not the kind of movie that parents should just drop their kids off to, however, but should stay for themselves to witness some of the most effective family movie moments in quite a while. In a time when family movies are completely disposable, "Spy Kids" proves itself to stand out from all the others and provide us with a genuine spy movie experience.
Take your kids to see it. It's very good and needs to be seen on the big screen.
I took my two boys (7 and 10) to see Spy kids today. They were transfixed and wanted to watch it again straightaway. Both are big James Bond fans but some of the content and dialogue of the Bond movies isn't suitable. Spy Kids fits the bill exactly for anyone under 13 who likes the Bond films. It came over to me as a blend of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory meets Home Alone meets Bond. It was at the kids level without patronizing them and was believable enough for adults to enjoy too. All of the acting was high quality and the special effects first class.
I shall enjoy it again in the future on video but it deserves to be seen on the big screen first. Another bonus were the trailers for Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter and the Philosophers Stone. I often come away from Cinema trips with the kids feeling that we haven't really had our moneys worth, but not today!

Wow. This is really good. You really capture the feelings that the main character felt. I felt like I was there. Not many writers can do that (especially on this website). I forget her name, but I could feel her nervousness. This is the the first La Corda D'Oro that I ever read, and it was well written. The only thing I noticed was that you forgot commas. But other than that, it was very well-written. You should continue to write. And I don't mean just fanfiction.

Really nice. :D I like the way you described it all.. Just walking to the stage itself is a difficult thing to do. x) great job on this.. Keep it up!

NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Sometimes, even Warren Buffett breaks his own rules. As he has explained in the past, Buffett has traditionally been opposed to his investment companies issuing new shares of company stock to fund debt or participate in mergers and acquisitions. Additionally, the investor has said he does not believe in stock splits, claiming that the action simply cuts one pie into more pieces. His disapproval stems from the fact that these actions can come with side effects that are detrimental for shareholders. By flooding the market with additional shares, the value of the stock can take a hit and shareholder power is diluted. Recently his feelings on this topic surfaced when Buffett attempted to use his authority to extinguish Kraft ( KFT)'s most recent $17 billion hostile takeover bid for Cadbury ( CBY). In order to fund the bid, Kraft officials hoped to receive shareholder approval to issue 370 million additional shares of KFT. The Oracle criticized the planned offer, warning CEO Irene Rosenfeld and shareholders to avoid overpaying for the U.K. candy maker. Buffett, Kraft's largest shareholder with more than 9% of the company's stock, would suffer a big loss if the shares plummet. Interestingly, though Buffett has made it clear that he is opposed to any offer presented by Kraft which includes the excessive use of company stock, he appears to be singing a different tune when it comes to his own multi-billion dollar acquisition of Burlington Northern Santa Fe ( BNI).

Report: Bridges looking bad in the Tri-States
Mon, 28 Mar 2011 17:55:23 GMT — You may drive across a bridge each day to go to work and not even know that it is crumbling and in need of repair. The average Joe doesn't get out of the car and take a closer look before they drive over each time.
Of the almost 300 bridges in Hancock County, 18 percent of them fall into the category of structurally deficient.
This is what that classification means, according to Hancock County engineer Elgin Berry.
"A structurally deficient bridge typically needs maintenance and repair and eventual rehabilitation or replacement to address deficiencies. To remain open to traffic, structurally deficient bridges are often posted with reduced weight limits that restrict the gross weight of vehicles using the bridges. If unsafe conditions are identified during a physical inspection, the structure will be closed."
So are these 58 bridges safe? The answer is yes, according to the Hancock County Highway Department.
If not, they're closed.
The highway department inspects county and township bridges at least every two years.
When bridges need to be replaced, Illinois law sets certain priorities.
For instance, buses on which school buses travel get top priority.
And new bridges are built to withstand heavier loads of up to about 60 tons.Many bridges in Illinois are regularly traveled, yet they are falling into disrepair. NBC reports that 1 in 12 Illinois bridges is crumbling. Click here for that full report. These figures begin to hit home when you look at Hancock County figures, where out of 298 bridges, 53 of them have been deemed "structurally deficient." See the following table (Source - Transportation for America): County Engineer, Elgin Berry, tells KHQA that Hancock County has 179 miles of highway and a total of 298 bridges, which includes bridges controlled by townships, county and the state of Illinois. Editor's Note: KHQA recognizes that data provided by the Hancock County Engineer on March 28th shows 58, not 53 bridges deemed structurally deficient. While it is allowed for the county to place weight limit restrictions on some of the 58 bridges, other bridges are considered to be functionally obselete. That means that the bridge is an older bridge that cannot accomodate modern cars, trucks and farm equipment.You can join the ongoing conversation on our Facebook page here, or feel free to leave comments about bridges in your area below in the comments thread.

Music in Egypt is one of several case-study volumes that can be used along with Thinking Musically, the core book in the Global Music Series. Thinking Musically incorporates music from many diverse cultures and establishes the framework for exploring the practice of music around the world. It sets the stage for an array of case-study volumes, each of which focuses on a single area of the world. Each case study uses the contemporary musical situation as a point of departure, covering historical information and traditions as they relate to the present. Visit www.oup.com/us/globalmusic for a list of case studies in the Global Music Series. The website also includes instructional materials to accompany each study. Music in Egypt provides an overview of the country's rich and dynamic contemporary musical landscape. It offers an in-depth look at specific Egyptian musical traditions, paying special attention to performers and the variety of contexts in which performances occur. The book acknowledges the pervasive presence of Islam by focusing on two Muslim performance genres and by considering the age-old issue of the compatibility of music and Islam. It accomplishes the latter by incorporating the voices of many of the performers featured on the accompanying CD. The volume features a variety of musics that reflect and help to create a number of distinct regional, national, and community identities co-existing in Egypt today. Drawing on more than twenty years of extensive fieldwork, Scott L. Marcus offers detailed ethnographic documentation of seven performance traditions found in Egypt today: the call to prayer; madh, a genre of Sufi religious music; southern Egyptian mizmar folk music; early twentieth-century takht-based art music; music by the acclaimed singer Umm Kulthum, which dominated the mid-twentieth century; wedding procession music; and music by the current superstar pop singer Hakim. The book is packaged with an 80-minute audio CD containing excellent examples of each tradition. All of the examples are based in a single melodic mode--maqam rast--to best engage students with the musical form, structure, and practice of the traditions. Separate educational tracks on the CD introduce maqam rast and the variety of rhythms found in the CD examples. In addition, the CD features a special solo improvisation (taqasim) in maqam rast by UCLA professor Ali Jihad Racy, to help students better understand this particular melodic mode. Enhanced by eyewitness accounts of performances, interviews with performers, listening examples, and song lyrics that enable students to interact with the text, Music in Egypt provides a unique and hands-on introduction to the country's diverse and captivating music.

How can a Chiropractor help you?
Life is for living, but this is hard to do when you're in pain.
At Stirling Health Professionals we care about people, we listen closely, and when we've diagnosed your problems, we do our best to help you.
If you've tried other doctors, been on pain medications, and are tired of getting no results, you need to try chiropractic.
Chiropractors help millions of people regain control of their lives every year. Our treatments are designed to eliminate acute and chronic pain, increase flexibility, improve mobility and function, increase strength, enhance balance, and increase the overall quality of one's life.
How does Chiropractic work?
Chiropractic works on the principle that good spinal alignment and function lead to better health and well being.
Chiropractors specialise in the detection, correction and prevention of spinal disorders (subluxations) and their affects on the nervous system and the body.
A vertebral subluxation results when the bones of your spinal column (vertebrae) lose their normal motion or position and irritate the nervous system. These disorders may or may not be painful, however they have the potential to affect your health.
Your nervous system is made up of your brain, spinal cord and all attached nerves. It is protected by the skull and the spinal column, and is so important because it controls the function of virtually every cell, tissue, organ and system of your body.
Spinal subluxations can be caused in a number of way such as:
- Physical – as a result of trauma at birth, injuries or incorrect posture.
- Chemical – from toxins such as those derived from a bad diet, cigarette smoke, hormonal imbalance and drug reactions.
- Emotional – caused by work or relationship stress.
Chiropractic is the best way to achieve long term spinal health
Once your spine has reached its maximum potential your chiropractor will organise an exercise programme and provide educational material about your spine so that you can maintain your good health.
Chiropractic is a way of keeping healthy and being at your best for:
- Better sports performance.
- Improved flexibility.
- Better posture.
- Higher resistance to disease.
- A more comfortable and energetic lifestyle.
- Easier birthing process.
I have never had chiropractic care before? What do I need to know?
Because chiropractic is non-invasive, the risk of a serious side effect is extremely low. While most people feel a sense of relief, it is possible that following a chiropractic treatment you may experience mild soreness that should go away quickly. Before you have a chiropractic treatment, ask to discuss any concerns you have with your chiropractor.
Chiropractic is a health discipline firmly grounded in science and endorsed by research. National and international researchers, both within and outside the chiropractic profession, are actively involved in studying the safety and effectiveness of chiropractic for patient care.
This growing body of evidence continues to prove the value of chiropractic care with consistently high marks for clinical effectiveness, cost efficiency and patient satisfaction. (Source: Alberta College and Association of Chiropractors)

Before "Frozen," Idina Menzel was merely a Tony-winning Broadway star. After "Frozen," the singer and actress found herself engulfed in the Disney animated musical's global blizzard of popularity.
"Frozen" is the highest-grossing animated movie in history. Menzel sings and speaks the role of Princess Elsa, the "Frozen" character who performs the film's Oscar-winning hit, "Let It Go."
Menzel recognized the beauty of "Let It Go" when she first heard it.
"But I had no idea that it would become the phenomenon that it's become," she said before the start of her 2015 world tour, which comes to the Saenger Theatre in New Orleans on Thursday, July 30. "When a role or a song has such reciprocity, when you're putting out all of that and you're getting back so much as well, that's when you feel truly grateful."
Despite the international impact of "Frozen" and "Let It Go," Menzel's on-stage mission hasn't changed. She wants audiences to leave feeling as if they know her.
"The thing that I'm most proud of is my ability to give an intimate performance," she said. "Even though my profile's gotten bigger because of things like 'Frozen,' I'm still able to connect with every person in that audience. That's challenging to do, the bigger the venues get, but it's possible. I try to be honest and authentic and stay in the moment."
Being open to discovery during performances is especially important.
"A lot of times I discover things in front of thousands of people," Menzel said. "When I was younger, that was frightening; but I learned that the only way to connect with people is to allow yourself to be vulnerable.
"Being a creature of the theater, eight shows a week, I embrace things that keep it fresh. … I want every city, every audience to feel like they got something specific to that evening."
During her world tour, Menzel sings "Let It Go" as well as material from her two decades of stage work. There are songs from "Rent," "Wicked" and "If/Then." There's an Ethel Merman medley ("There's No Business Like Show Business," "Anything Goes," "Everything's Coming Up Roses") and interpretations of songs by Barbra Streisand, The Police and Radiohead.
"Although 'Let It Go' is the only 'hit' radio song in my career, I consider songs like 'Defying Gravity' ('Wicked') and songs from 'Rent' to be my other hits," Menzel said. "If the audience can sing every word, that's my hit song."
Her international tour — including Korea, Japan, the United Kingdom, the Hollywood Bowl and, in her native Nassau County, New York, the Nikon at Jones Beach Theater — represents childhood dreams fulfilled.
"When I was a kid, I thought I could do anything," Menzel said. "Now, as a mature woman who's got the sense knocked into her, I'm ecstatic. Like, 'Oh, wow. A show at Jones Beach.' Last year at Radio City (Music Hall), that was another total milestone."
As much as "Frozen" and "Let It Go" made such high-profile performances possible, Menzel doesn't feel overwhelmed by the hit song and movie.
"People don't realize that ever since 'Rent,' each defining role I've had has garnered a very young audience," she said. "Between 'Rent' and 'Wicked' and even 'Glee' and now 'Frozen,' I've always navigated a wide demographic. Which is a very lucky thing, a gift, but it also can be tricky."
Besides her tour, Menzel has begun the process of making a new album. It's the follow-up to her 2014 Christmas collection, "Holiday Wishes."
"I'm putting my heart there and exploring different sounds," she said. "I'm not limiting myself, I'm just doing what I feel in my heart. And then I'll see if there's a theme or trend going on and pick the songs that tell that story."

This drawing is a compliment to the previous one, and is also a winter scene. The reference photos were taken on the same clear, cold day.
The pencil drawings are the quick part, relatively speaking, since I am not the confident artist who can draw quickly. I love to do these simple pencil sketches though. This one will be finished in color pencil as well and it will take a bit of time to complete each piece now.

A rea Educators Attend Summer Institute ore than 350 teachers, administrators, community members and representatives from educational institutions gathered in early August for The Houston Annenberg Challenge's Fondren Reforming Schools Summer Institute. During the three-day conference, educators shared practices, ideas, concerns and resources central to transforming schools into learner-centered, academically rich places of learning. Attendees from more than 85 different organizations and schools were able to choose from a series of workshops, round tables and small group discussions led by 72 different presenters. "The institute was very informative," said one attendee. "It allowed me to enrich my knowledge and reflect with others. Home groups were excellent. I appreciate the chance to gain knowledge, and I'm motivated to return to my campus and share."
Among the topics of discussion were: ■ Student Learning: Professional development centered on the different ways that children learn in core academic subjects like math, science and reading; on increasing awareness of how factors such as race, culture and

modes of communication impact student learning; and on how to use data gathered from student work to gauge their mastery of a subject. ■ Authentic Pedagogy: Educators learned more about the effective strategies, skills, techniques and methods of teaching; how to increase the number of constant feedback mechanisms to determine if teaching methods are successful; and how to define the criteria for types of student work that can be used to determine subject mastery. ■ Organizational Structure: Participants learned leadership practices, decision-making processes and accountability formats that facilitate student learning, authentic pedagogy and whole school reform; ways that leadership can be distributed in less hierarchical ways in schools; and how to consciously make schools and school practices topics of inquiry on a daily basis.
Pedro Bermudez, an educational specialist in the Miami-Dade County public schools, discusses his presentation with Annenberg staff member Carol Ann Caveny.
■ External Support: Attendees learned how to connect schools and districts to an array of local, regional and national service providers; and how to broaden and deepen partnerships between schools and their supporting communities, families, organizations and businesses.

Established in January 1997 with funding from the Annenberg Foundation and local matching contributions, The Houston Annenberg Challenge is a $60 million, not-for-profit public, private partnership directing the largest single sum of money ever dedicated to public school reform in the Greater Houston area. The Challenge develops and funds school programs, professional development and leadership institutes to promote higher academic achievement by all students.
From the
chools traditionally have used a model of teaching where as many as 30 children work quietly at their seats. Houston Annenberg is working to see that this model gives way to one based on research that shows children learn better when they are actively involved in their schoolwork. It is no longer good enough for children to simply read about a subject to learn it. Today's teachers must help children get inside the subject - be it spelling, algebra or physics - with hands on, interactive activities. To craft this customized learning for students, schools need three things: a professional learning community; data that focuses on student work; and ongoing assessment of instructional practices using that data to get better results for students.
Building a learning community that connects teaching to learning requires an investment in professional development. One tool is the Annenberg program called Critical Friends Group. This program creates a group of eight to 12 teachers and administrators who work together monthly to define and produce improved student achievement. As a group, the members establish student learning goals, help each other learn better teaching practices, look closely at student work and curriculum and identify school culture issues that affect student achievement. Each group chooses a coach who helps the group build the sense of trust it must have if the teachers are to work together. To date, Houston Annenberg has trained more than 300 Critical Friends Group "coaches." We also are
HISD BEGINS $1.3 MILLION MATH INITIATIVE ExxonMobil Foundation and Houston Annenberg Challenge to Partner on Project The Houston Independent School District (HISD), ExxonMobil Foundation and The Houston Annenberg Challenge have launched a $1.3 million, three-year pilot project to identify, develop, and place K-5 mathematics specialists in the classroom. The project will work to improve student achievement in mathematics by strengthening teachers' knowledge of mathematics and instructional methods. The project was announced at Foerster Elementary by Dr. Rod Paige, superintendent, HISD; Larry Marshall, president, HISD Board; Edward F. Ahnert, president, ExxonMobil Foundation; Hugh Hayes, deputy commissioner, Texas Education Agency, and Linda Clarke, executive director, The Houston Annenberg Challenge. "At ExxonMobil, we believe the best schools are distinguished by a passionate and unanimous focus on a single goal -- student learning. A vital component to advancing mathematics education in schools is a wellprepared, dedicated faculty," said Edward F. Ahnert, ExxonMobil Foundation president. "Clearly, this Mathematics Initiative being implemented in HISD schools is a strong step in
strengthening teacher proficiency and ensuring academic success for the children of Houston." "American students today lag behind their international counterparts in math and science," said Linda Clarke, executive director, The Houston Annenberg Challenge. "It is no longer good enough for children to simply read about math and practice with worksheets. Today's teachers must help children get inside the subject with hands-on, interactive activities so they are ready to succeed in a high-tech, global world." In September, five specialists –who have been identified from HISD elementary teachers began work to assist in the design and implementation of a more innovative approach to math instruction, to team teaching and to providing professional development activities. The specialists also provide vital resources to teachers and work to increase parental involvement in the education process. The math specialists also have created the first Annenberg Critical Friends Group focused on mathematics. Critical Friends is a researchbased model for professional development in which members solidify student-learning goals, provide feedback to each other on teaching
bringing Critical Friends to our partner Project GRAD, a nonprofit that provides scholarships to high Linda Clarke school students. The more teachers know about how students learn, the more they know about the teaching methods that work, the more likely our children are to be prepared to work in a high-tech, fastpaced global economy.
THE MISSION Our mission at Quest High School in the Humble Independent School District is to provide a personalized learning experience for students in a working relationship with the community to create life-long learners and successful members of society. While many schools have similar mission statements, at Quest we allow students to live the statement through Service Learning. Our objective is to provide experiential learning that directly
Linda Clarke, Executive Director
practices, study how students learn and identify barriers to student achievement. "Our students live in a world where technological advances are being made on a daily basis," said Dr. Rod Paige, superintendent, Houston Independent School District. "When these children enter the workforce, they will need math and science skills much different from those we employ today. Thanks to our friends at ExxonMobil and Houston Annenberg Challenge, HISD students will be prepared to meet tomorrow's demands as well as compete with their international peers." During the first year, the math specialist project will target third graders in the following elementary schools located in the Southwest District of HISD: Anderson, Argyle, Elrod, Foerster, Fondren, Halpin, Milne, and Red. Although the project is limited to HISD's Southwest District for the next three years, a mathematics specialist network has been created and extended to involve educators in Alief ISD, Fort Bend ISD, and the HISD East District. Funding for the three-year project will be provided by the three partners. ExxonMobil Foundation will contribute $500,000; HISD will contribute $621,000 and additional in-kind donations; and The Houston Annenberg Challenge will contribute $237,000. HISD will provide all funding once the project becomes self-sustaining.

Service Learning at Quest High School: Living Our Mission by Lawrence Kohn and Kim Huseman focuses on the attributes of our mission statement and to ultimately improve schools by allowing students to learn to be good citizens. We want our students to see the world with a broader scope by integrating ongoing Service Learning into a four-year high school curriculum. Service Learning is part of the culture at Quest, it is integrated into our curriculum, and it is actively reflected upon by students and staff. THE HONOR The efforts of our program have not gone unnoticed. This spring, Quest submitted a 200page Service Learning portfolio to Texas Serve and Learn in Austin along with several other Texas schools. The purpose was to determine which Texas school's portfolio would be forwarded to Washington, D.C., to be a National Service Learning Leader School candidate. In May, we were notified we had been chosen as one of 32 high schools in the United States to receive this distinction. In June, a delegation from Quest went to Washington and received the National Service Learning Leader School Award in the Kennedy Center. We also were honored with a
Congressional reception at which Thurgood Marshall, Jr. read a letter from President Clinton and Pennsylvania Senator Harris Wofford received us. THE FOCUS Aside from the overall honor, becoming a Leader School has responsibilities much like those we have as a Houston Annenberg Challenge Beacon School. We have developed a plan that will help other schools investigate and possibly begin service programs on their campuses. We also have already begun some efforts within our district to begin program implementation. We are honored and excited to be able to share what we have learned about the academic, social and civic benefits students experience through service. Houston Annenberg has supported our program in many ways. The Annenberg imperatives of size, isolation and teacher learning are all supported by service, and the association with Annenberg and its imperatives has allowed us to focus on our program using the following triadic structure:

Ruby Payne
Recent statistics show that more than 73 percent of children in the Houston Independent School District receive free or reduced price lunches, the federal government's indicator of school poverty. While the cause of poverty is often easy to pinpoint—the loss of a job, the death of a parent—its effects on school children are sometimes more difficult to predict. Ruby Payne, author of A Framework for Understanding Poverty, has spent almost 30 years studying poverty and its effects on families and children. At a recent seminar in The Houston Annenberg Challenge Distinguished Speaker Series, Payne shared her observations with Houston-area educators. AMONG THE HIGHLIGHTS OF HER RESEARCH ARE 10 KEY POINTS:
■ Poverty is relative. ■ Poverty occurs in all races and in all countries. ■ Economic class is a continuous line, not a clear-cut distinction. ■ Generational poverty and situational poverty are different. ■ Her work is based on patterns. All patterns have exceptions. ■ An individual brings with him/her the hidden rules of the class in which he/she was raised. ■ Schools and businesses operate from middle-class norms and use the hidden rules of the middle-class.
■ For students to be successful, educators must understand their hidden rules and teach them the rules that will make them successful at school and work. ■ We can neither excuse students nor scold them for not knowing; as educators we must teach them and provide support, insistence and expectations. ■ To move from poverty to middle class or middle class to wealth, an individual must give up relationships for achievement (at least for some period of time).
A native of Elkhart, Indiana, Payne has been a professional educator for 24 years. She has been a teacher and a department chairperson for a secondary school; an elementary school principal; a consultant and a central office administrator. She has a B.A. from Goshen College in Indiana, an M.A. from Western Michigan University and a Ph.D. from Loyola University. Most recently she was director of professional development for the Goose Creek Independent School District in Baytown.

"The Fondren Reforming Schools Summer Institute allowed our attendees to participate as a team in a community of learners to share ideas and practices and to examine student work," said Linda Clarke, executive director of The Houston Annenberg Challenge. "I cannot think of a better way for teachers—the real heroes of society—to begin the new school year."
Quest Project . . . continued from page 3
1. Size. We focus and refocus our efforts while asking hard questions about how service helps personalize the learning of our students. We all have a collective responsibility for helping students cultivate an awareness of how service benefits them and how they benefit the community. 2. Isolation. We have reflective dialogue concerning how service strengthens our ties to the community as we learn to serve and serve to learn. The awareness of having an active partnership with the community helps reduce isolation and aids in our Beaconing efforts. In addition, the role of Leader School will help reduce isolation. 3. Teacher Learning. Finally, as the facilitators at Quest help students reflect, visit service sites and interact with students concerning service, authentic learning occurs as we see our students obtain "habits of the heart" and grow and become more civicminded. They become citizens of Quest rather than tourists. Our motto at Quest is "Learning is a journey, not a destination." Service Learning is one component that makes the journey and the mission so worthwhile. Lawrence Kohn and Kim Huseman are teachers at Quest High School.
Carnegie Corporation Awards $250,000 Grant to Houston
he summer started on a high note at The Houston Annenberg Challenge with the news that the Carnegie Corporation of New York had awarded the organization and Houston I.S.D. a $250,000 planning grant for high school reform. Nine other cities across the country also received planning grants, including Boston, Chattanooga-Hamilton County, Indianapolis, Little Rock, Portland, Providence, Sacramento, San Diego and Worcester.
The highly competitive planning grant, in which 21 cities were invited to submit applications, will allow The Houston Annenberg Challenge and Houston I.S.D. to focus on accelerating the change and improvement in the district's 23 comprehensive high schools. Stephanie Lee of H.I.S.D. will serve as the project coordinator. "With this grant, we will be able to begin planning how to retool more Houston-area high schools into centers of learning that produce graduates able to solve complex problems and work in teams," said Jonathan Day, chairman of the board of trustees of The Houston Annenberg Challenge. At the same time, Houston Annenberg is also devoting additional resources to Reagan High School. The Annenberg Board of Trustees selected Reagan as a pilot to develop a plan to restructure a large urban high school to enhance learning for students and provide the skills and knowledge they need for the 21st century. The planning group of Reagan faculty, parents, business and other community organizations was busy this summer developing the pilot project, which began implementation this fall. For the Carnegie grant, teams of parents, students, teachers and other community organizations will work at the school and citywide levels to redesign schools and raise expectations for student achievement. Their first symposium to begin planning was held in September at the University of Houston Hilton Hotel. "Every student in America is entitled to attend a good high school in order to be prepared for the world of the 21st century," says Vartan Gregorian, president of Carnegie Corporation of New York. "They are owed a high performance education where much is offered and much is expected." The grants awarded by Carnegie are the first phase of the corporation's new long-term Schools for a New Society initiative to promote citywide reform of urban high schools. Upon completion of the strategic planning phase, five cities will be selected to receive an estimated $40 million in grants from the Carnegie Corporation for implementation of their plans. "Schools for a New Society presents us with the opportunity to focus specifically on achieving effective high schools for all Houston's students," says Rod Paige, superintendent of H.I.S.D. "We have a strong partnership of business, higher education, civic and community leadership working with our principals to ensure that every student can build the competence and gain the confidence needed for success."
Easley Means Business at Bethune Academy W hen Annette Easley graduated from Sam
Houston State University, she went to work for Foley's Department Stores eventually landing a job as an area sales manager. She enjoyed her work but she could not forget something her father told her as a young girl. "My father didn't have the chance to get an education, and he always stressed the importance of education to my family," says Easley, who is now the community liaison and parent coordinator at Bethune Academy, a Houston Annenberg Beacon School. "I come from a family of ten, and he encouraged each of us to become teachers. He didn't think any job could be more rewarding." So after 11 years in the business world, Easley left her corporate job and went to work as a special education teacher, earning an alternative certification. Then, she earned a master's degree from Texas Southern University in mid-management. After eight years as a special education teacher, including more than two years at Bethune Academy, Easley was named to her current position a little more than two years ago. "There's no doubt in my mind that teachers are capable of doing the kinds of things I do with the community and the parents," says Easley. "But the money we've received from Annenberg allows our school to devote the resources of a full-time staff person to some out-of-the-classroom activities, leaving our teachers to focus on teaching the kids." In her job, and in her role as Bethune's Annenberg School Coordinator, Easley manages a myriad of activities. High on her priority list are several activities aimed at reducing isolation, one of Annenberg's key
imperatives. Most activities fall into one of two categories: coordinating parent activities and increasing the involvement of the surrounding community.
Helms teacher Jennifer Day talks with Easley (center) and Helms Assistant Principal Gayle Carter.
Easley is responsible for coordinating all parent activities, from recruiting and organizing volunteers to managing the school's P.T.A. group. Easley also distributes regular parent communications and organizes Bethune's Family Nights, which provide strategies and tools to parents for helping their children learn at home. Easley also manages the school's Parent Center, which provides brochures and other materials on a variety of subjects and social service programs. And, she helps organize a special computer literacy course for parents so they can keep up with the skills their children learn and use. The other half of her job—increasing community involvement—keeps Easley moving quickly. Often accompanied by Bethune Principal Barbara Trageser, Easley attends many breakfasts, luncheons and other meetings of organizations around the school. Her goal? To keep the community aware of the
School Coordinator Profile exciting things going on at Bethune and to recruit the involvement of additional volunteers and support for school programs. For instance, two of the school's most visible projects are with the Acres Home Public Library and the Acres Home YMCA. Last year, as an incentive for good grades and good behavior, teachers coached basketball teams made up of Bethune students. According to Easley, the program was such a morale-booster for teachers and students that the school plans to extend the program to a football team this fall. And, the students do more than just perform well in athletics. Last year, Bethune received an award from Houston City Council for signing up more than 90% of their students and teachers for a Power Card from the Houston Public Library. Other community partnerships involve activities such as a mentoring program with the North Harris County Community College Carver Center; an education committee with the Greater Inwood Partnership; and activities with the Acres Home Chamber of Commerce, the West Area Acres Home Civic Club and the P.I.P. program with the Houston Police Department. A magnet school for math, science and fine arts, Bethune Academy is now the talk of the neighborhood. "It's taken some time but we're starting to see results, " says Easley. "We have people moving back to our community that went to Bethune when they were children. Now, 'the little neighborhood school' is something they are very proud of and a school they want their own kids to attend. I guess my father was right. There's not a more rewarding job."
Annenberg Schools Present Research at Harvard Conference The work of the schools and educators involved in The Houston Annenberg Challenge continues to be recognized as "one of the most promising approaches to school reform in America," according to recent attendees of a conference hosted by Harvard University. Earlier this year, a delegation of teachers from five Houston-area Beacon Schools, along with their Planning and Evaluation Consultant Dr. Cheryl J. Craig of Rice University and Cylette Willis of Rice University, presented their work at the invitation-only conference. The teachers from Bethune, Drew, Eisenhower, Helms and Lanier presented on the topic: "School Portfolio Development: Coming to Know Culture and Context through Reflective Practice." Craig was one of the conference's keynote speakers, presenting on "School Portfolio-Making: Developing Teacher Knowledge Through Cultivating Communities of Knowing." Conference participants view the work of the Houston team as making a significant contribution to the national school reform conversation, particularly debates concerning the nature of teacher knowledge and the relationship between higher education and public school reform. Next year's conference takes place in Ireland, and the Houston team has been invited to participate again. The portfolio work of the team is funded by The Houston Annenberg Challenge through a grant from the Brown Foundation.

Jeepers, it's been an age, hasn't it? Well, I've been busy lately....in a nutshell, I've been having a life. Shocker! But here's a little thank you gift for sticking with me :)
58 recolours of Evanesco's 3t2 conversion of Madaya's doors and windows! Because Evanesco slaved all of the windows and doors to one master mesh file, you only need that one mesh file, and all these recolours will work for every single window and door! Even the add ons Evanesco made later!
Colours are from Aelia's Autumn, Retro, Eco Natural and Lonesome sets; made initially for a crazy sim of mine (who can be found peeking in the top preview image). I don't have time to make a swatch, but if you're unfamiliar with the colours, check here. The files are labelled and compressed.
I hope you enjoy, and I really hope I can get back into regular sim-time one of these days. I have an essay due on the 24th, so we'll have to see how that goes! Cheers :)

Herb Fame
Herb Fame was born Herbert Feemster on October 1, 1942, but his name and fame will be forever linked to Peaches as half of Peaches and Herb, known as the Sweethearts of Soul. Herb began singing in church when he was seven years old, and in D.C. neighborhood groups through high school. After high school, he worked in a record store. Herb signed with Van McCoy (who would produce The Hustle) and Date Records in 1965 as a solo artist. Another DC group, The Sweet Things, also signed with Date Records. McCoy used some leftover recording time to pair Herb with Sweet Things Francine Peaches Barker. The A-side, Were in This Thing Together, didnt do much, but the B-side, Lets Fall in Love, became Peaches and Herbs first hit single, going to number 11 on the R&B chart in December, 1966. The song had been a number one pop hit for Eddy Duchin in 1934.
The duos follow-up, Close your Eyes, written by Chuck Willis, went to number four on the R&B chart and number eight on the pop chart in 1967. Peaches and Herb had more hits in 1967 including For Your Love, a remake of Mickey and Sylvias Love is Strange, Close Your Eyes, and Two Little Kids. Their two hit albums in 1967 were For Your Love and Lets Fall in Love.
Francine Barker left the duo in 1967 and was replaced by a series of Peaches. The hits continued over the next few years, including The Ten Commandments of Love, United, When He Touches Me (Nothing Else Matters), and Its Just a Game, Love.
Herb decided to quit singing in 1970 and joined the Washington, D.C. police department, from which he is now retired. He released a few singles on his own BS label, but it wasnt until 1977 that he made a comeback, this time with Linda Greene as the new Peaches. They charted that year with the Van McCoy- produced Were Still Together on MCA Records. The next year, the duo signed with Polydor Records and Herbs old friend Freddie Perren. Herb and Perrin, had been friends when they both worked in DC record stores. Perren had gone on to produce and write for the Jackson 5 and the Miracles, among others. Peaches and Herbs first single, Shake your Groove Thing, went gold in 1978. That same year their biggest hit, Reunited, went platinum, hitting the number one spot for four weeks on both the R&B and pop charts. Both songs were on the 1979 platinum album 2 Hot. Other hit songs that followed included Weve Got Love, Roller Skate Mate (Part 1) and I Pledge My Love.
Link Wray
Born Frederick Lincoln Wray on May 2, 1929, in Dunn, North Carolina, Link Wray is considered by some to be the grandfather of the power chord, referring to his seminal 1958 recording, Rumble, with its menacing, raw and distorted opening chords. Link Wray became one of the most influential rock and roll guitarists of the 1950s with his pioneering use of distortion and fuzztone.
Link started his first band in Portsmouth, Virginia in the 1940s with his brothers Doug and Vernon. Calling themselves Lucky Wray and the Lazy Pine Wranglers and, later, Lucky Wray and the Palomino Ranch Hands, they played western swing. Links musical career was interrupted when he had to serve two years in the US Army during the Korean War. While in the service, he contracted tuberculosis, which wasnt discovered until he had returned to the US and moved to the DC area with his family in 1955. The illness cost him a lung and doctors told Link that hed never sing again.
Link decided to concentrate on his guitar work, and he became the anchor of the brothers newly renamed band The Raymen, with Doug playing drums and Vernon producing. The band became regulars on the DC circuit, playing at clubs such as Stricks, Rendezvous, Quonset Hut, The Crossroads, Bens Bar and Grill, Ozarks, and Vinnies.
One of their fans was Milt Grant, who hosted the Milt Grant Show, a popular daily rock and roll television program. The Raymen made frequent appearances on the show and local Grant-produced record hops, backing many national rock and roll artists of the day, including Fats Domino and Ricky Nelson. Vernon quit the band in order to start a recording company, produce, and manage artists. The Raymen (interchangeably spelled with a W and an R) now consisted of Link, brother Doug on drums, and Shorty Horton on bass.
The story goes that the Raymen were backing up The Diamonds for one of Grants Record Hops, in Fredericksburg Arena, in Fredericksburg, VA. According to Link, when the band was onstage, Grant asked them to play a stroll (The Stroll was one of The Diamonds hits) Link said, I dont know no stroll, but his brother started playing the beat on the drums. According to Link,it was at that moment that Jesus God zapped the Rumble into his head. The crowd went wild and the band played the instrumental four times that night.
Realizing they were on to something, Vernon had the Raymen try to put the song, originally named Oddball, on tape. Link lore has it that when the frustrated Link couldnt get the dirty sound hed gotten onstage, he punched holes in his ampss tweeters with a pencil, and the Fuzztone was born.
Grant took the demo tape to Archie Bleyer, of Cadence Records, who hated it. However, Bleyers teenaged daughter loved it, saying it reminded her of West Side Story. Bleyer renamed the song Rumble. The instrumental was banned in some cities, including New York, for being too suggestive of gang warfare. Eventually, the band was asked to appear on American Bandstand and four million 45s of Rumble were sold.
Link and his Raymen wrote many other instrumental hits, including The Swag and Rawhide (released locally in 1960 and again on Epic in 1963), which led to a second American Bandstand appearance. Other classics such as Ace of Spaces, Run Chicken Run, and Jack the Ripper followed, but none was as popular or commercially successful as Rumble.
He lives in Denmark with Olive and son Oliver, and continues to record and occasionally tour overseas. His last US tour was in 2003; he played 18 dates at the age of 75.
During the 1990s new fans discovered Link Wray as his music was featured in movies including Breathless, Desperado, Independence Day, 12 Monkeys; This Boys Life, Pulp Fiction, Blow, and Confessions of a Dangerous Mind.

I've always gravitated towards older friends. I was the kid on the playground who wanted to talk to the parents instead of playing soccer. I was also chubby, which may have had something to do with it.
Because I've spent most of my life trying to be older, as a general rule I always date older guys. (One time in high school I tried to date a younger one – it lasted a week. Too clingy.)
When I was in college, this wasn't a huge issue. The older guys I was dating were still in their twenties and were typically lots of fun. As I've gotten older, though, the guys have too. With this lifestyle comes a particular set of challenges. If you're going to date older, at least know what you're getting into. Most older guys fit into specific categories. Here's a quick guide…
1. The Man-Child
This guy is probably the most prevalent in my life. They are typically in their early to mid-thirties and just don't know how to be adults. They have serious commitment issues because they never emotionally grew up past age 20. They seem fun, because – hey, no commitment – but there is a serious downside. They're basically crazy. Date this guy if you want someone to break up with you in two weeks because you left a bag in his living room and he has space issues or some equally absurd problem.
2. The Workaholic
This guy is attractive because he has a stable lifestyle, which means he can pay for nice dinners and not force you to eat fast food for the week after. They work a lot, so they don't like to go out much. If they do, they want to be home early, because hangovers are way worse as you get older, I'm told. And they worked all week and there are errands to run on the weekend. Or more work. Maybe date this guy if you're a homebody and don't like drinking too much.
3. The Narcissist
These guys are my favorite. In my experience, they tend to be a little older. Mid-thirties to 40 or so. I haven't dated anyone older than 40, so they may actually go past that. I wouldn't know. Anyway, these guys are the ones who seem so interesting in conversation, because they are, but afterward you realize you just had a three hour conversation and this guy probably didn't ask you a single question. They are also typically pretty irresistible. Proceed with caution. You'll waste a bunch of time never talking about yourself, but you probably won't regret it.
4. The Jerk
This guy is still single because he's just not fun to be around. I'm not sure he has a typical age range. He's spent so much time avoiding serious relationships that he doesn't really know how to treat people. He dates younger because older girls won't put up with his antics. Do not date him. You will regret it.
5. The Family Guy
He has kids. He might be divorced or he might not. He probably talks about his kids a lot, but hopefully not in an annoying way. If you're looking for more affection than you'd get from most dating older scenarios, this is probably the guy for you – these guys have kids, so they're in touch with their feelings. Proceed if you're looking for commitment and an insta-family.
6. The Divorcee
This one is tricky – depending on how freshly divorced he is, he can be a real mess. He can also be pretty commitment-phobic. But if you're looking for casual, this guy is usually up for it. Because he's not married anymore. He can do whatever he wants! Proceed if that's your thing.
7. The Commitment Guy
This guy hasn't been married and doesn't have kids, but wants them yesterday. I date older because I have commitment issues and want to have fun with someone who has the same issues, so this is not the guy for me. If you're ready to have a baby like, now, date him. You'll be engaged within a year and probably married in two.
These are just my experiences, though. All I really know is even at their worst they're way better than the guys my actual age.

The Beet Down: A Guide for Local Vegetarians
November 15, 2016
Filed under Food
Hang on for a minute...we're trying to find some more stories you might like.
Email This Story
Welcome to a collection of "good eats" for Baltimore Vegetarians and curious Omnivores. Each restaurant, café, food truck or general eatery is fairly local and filled with good vibes and a rad art scene. Tune in twice a month for a Beet Down on my new finds and old favorites.
Let's Taco Bout Food Baby
Today's beet down is one of my personal favorites, a western themed café in the heart of Hamden. This vegetarian and vegan friendly café is none other than Golden West. On first impression this bustling café is a Hodge podge of art, fairy lights, and taxidermy!
The giant murals and exposed pipes are accented by refurbished furniture adding to the thrift shop chic aesthetic. But the star of the show is the fairy light (and occasional hat) adorned moose head that hangs over the main dining area.
Golden West also offers a walk through window for coffee, tacos, waffles, and more on the go. This is great for a cup of coffee without the wait of a table, or a waffle before work. My go-to coffee is the log cabin latte, a smoky late with maple undertones that is the liquid form of wearing a flannel. My close second is their Nutella mocha, coco haze. A great fix for that chocolate craving.
If the eccentric décor and coffee window wasn't enough, you'll be entranced by the food. Not only do they accommodate and specialize in vegan and vegetarian dining, they excel! From breakfast to dinner the options are endless on the back of a 45 record sleeve. I am obsessed with their Aztec Burrito.
All dishes are easily made vegetarian with their house faux-rizo. This burrito is a bundle of sweet and spicy with plantains and Christmas Chile sauce complimenting the corn and black bean classics. This dish would not be complete without the savory grilled squash and cheddar jack cheese. If your mouth isn't already watering head over for the epic vibe and stay for the incredible food!

- "I regret buying all the other ones I have that have been cheap just to be able to get a few when I could have gotten one good quality one like this." in 21 reviews
Perfect in every use. I never never clean it with water as it may break, but it's always soft and clean. Very easy to use and good for skin. I use it every day to apply make up and I have had it for months now. I always recommend it to my friends, the biggest advantage is you don't have to dirty your hands with makeup
I am very excited to try it outIt is gorgeous in color and shapeI will make an offer when I receive itIts price is affordable and not expensiveVery useful for the lips to get rid of cracksI have been rewarded with the existing colors, especially red
I freaking love these brushes. They are very durable and long-lasting. I had received these as a gift and fell in love with these the moment I ran my fingers across the bristles. If you're looking for a set of brushes as a beginner I would highly suggest getting these brushes. They're great for liquid and powder products. I really love the fact that they blend my makeup very easily and it does not take a long time for the application process to take place while also providing a smooth finish.
This brush works wonders! I own one myself yes it's a bit pricey but totally worth the buy!
This is one of the best brushes that MaryKay offers! I have had mine for a few years and never had problems with the bristles falling out or fraying. It lays nicely, cleans well, and applies beautifully. I use it to apply cream products, concealers, and even pack on shadow. It has a beautiful precise, thin tip that I like to use to apply shadow on the lower lash line, as well. If you are a freelance MUA, you need this brush in your collection. It is my most used brush in my makeup artist kit and shows no signs of wear. This is a great value and can be so multi-purpose, I actually bought three so I don't have to clean it as often while applying makeup (haha). I absolutely recommend this brush to anyone and everyone!
This brush is great quality and works great to apply shadows to your eyes. I received it in a brush set and love the size. I would recommend this brush.
This concealer brush is amazing great for applying concealer and kinda blending it in with the rest of the products
Nice brandy brush, very smoothly. I recommend it. Blends in well. The brush moves very fluent back and forth.
It is a very good product for makeup and facilitates an application of the product. I bought this product from a reseller. My skin type is mixed, but this does not influence the product. The application is very easy, I love the Mary Kay brushes and highly recommend it.
I've been using this brush now for 4 years and it's still in great shape! I love it! will keep buying these products
Is this good for filling in eyebrows?
Does the brush shed a lot?
I've always used the type of applicator that comes in the eyeshadow case. What does a brush do that a regular applicator doesn't
Do you think that it is worth the price?
Are they pricey?? Looking to buy new brushes soon...

Cargo ship listing dangerously off France
A Panamanian-registered cargo ship was listing dangerously more than 300 kilometres (185 miles) off the western coast of France in rough seas on Friday, maritime authorities said.
The 22 crew of the Modern Express were evacuated by helicopter in dramatic scenes on Tuesday, but their ship remains under close observation.
The 164-metre-long (538-foot) vessel, which was carrying diggers and 3,600 tonnes of timber, gave out a distress call on Tuesday when it was situated 270 kilometres from the northwest tip of Spain, but it is still not known why it ran into difficulty.
The ship does not appear to be taking on water for now, authorities said.
It is drifting eastwards at a speed of 1.3 knots (2.4 kilometres per hour or 1.5 miles per hour).
A French frigate and a tug are at the scene and have been joined by two Spanish tugs sent by the ship's owners after French authorities warned them to take action to prevent the ship posing a danger.
Salvage experts are also in the area and will need to board the ship, but a swell of four metres made it impossible "to safely transfer on board the team required to prepare for a possible towing", the maritime authorities said in a statement.
