A divorce is a difficult time for both parties involved, in Louisiana or elsewhere. Costs vary widely based on whether the divorce is uncontested or contested. Simple uncontested divorces may cost a few hundred dollars, while complex, contested divorces may run into the thousands and beyond.
Basic Costs in Louisiana
Assuming both parties track down and prepare the relevant documents themselves, court costs will be the only fees. Each parish has a publicly available schedule of costs at the courthouse or on the court's website. An absolute no-frills uncontested divorce starts around $300-$350, with the cost rising if things such as restraining orders, serving of papers and judicial orders are needed.
Poor Filers and Legal Aid
Indigent filers in Louisiana can ask the court to rule them "In Forma Pauperis," meaning they don't have the money to pay filing and court costs upfront, but it is up to the individual to prove it. Poor filers may also qualify for low-cost or no-cost representation through a legal aid organization.
Do It Yourself Divorces
Websites and books that offer all the forms and information to file without an attorney are available. These packages can run from $30 to $300 on top of the court costs, though careful vetting of the provider should be part of the process for any Do It Yourself legal document.
Divorce Attorney Fee Structure
Attorneys usually charge by the hour, sometimes asking for an upfront deposit of a portion of their expected fees or building a payment structure into the agreement based on certain milestones. Attorneys that do a lot of divorce cases may have a flat-fee structure that covers the basic costs of the case such as the attorney's fee and business expenses, though filing and court costs may not be covered by a flat-fee agreement. Some may also work on contingency, meaning they only get paid if their client wins, but this is rare in divorce cases.
Uncontested Divorce Costs
The exact cost will vary based on location and the attorney's experience, but a completely uncontested divorce in Louisiana can cost from $300 to $2,000. If things such as child custody or business ownership are involved, the fees can rise quickly, even with an agreeable couple.
Contested Divorce Costs
Contested divorces can quickly become costly endeavors. Louisiana divorce lawyers charge from $150 an hour to $350 an hour and beyond, and very few will do contested divorces for a flat fee. In addition to attorney's fees, each court battle leads to filing costs and associated fees at the courthouse, as well as the business expenses of the attorney not included in the hourly rate. Also included in contested divorce costs would be paying for any experts that need to appear or work on the case, such as accountants and private investigators.

When M. Antoine Leuillet married the Widow Mathilde Souris, he had been in love with her for nearly ten years.
M. Souris had been his friend, his old college chum. Leuillet was very fond of him, but found him rather a muff. He often used to say: "That poor Souris will never set the Seine on fire."
When Souris married Mdlle. Mathilde Duval, Leuillet was surprised and somewhat vexed, for he had a slight weakness for her. She was the daughter of a neighbor of his, a retired haberdasher with a good bit of money. She was pretty, well-mannered, and intelligent. She accepted Souris on account of his money.
Then Leuillet cherished hopes of another sort. He began paying attentions to his friend's wife. He was a handsome man, not at all stupid, and also well off. He was confident that he would succeed; he failed. Then he fell really in love with her, and he was the sort of lover who is rendered timid, prudent, and embarrassed by intimacy with the husband. Mme. Souris fancied that he no longer meant anything serious by his attentions to her, and she became simply his friend. This state of affairs lasted nine years.
Now, one morning, Leuillet received a startling communication from the poor woman. Souris had died suddenly of aneurism of the heart.
He got a terrible shock, for they were of the same age; but the very next moment, a sensation of profound joy, of infinite relief of deliverance, penetrated his body and soul. Mme. Souris was free.
He had the tact, however, to make such a display of grief as the occasion required; he waited for the proper time to elapse, and attended to all the conventional usages. At the end of fifteen months he married the widow.
His conduct was regarded as not only natural but generous. He had acted like a good friend and an honest man. In short he was happy, quite happy.
They lived on terms of the closest confidence, having from the first understood and appreciated each other. One kept nothing secret from the other, and they told each other their inmost thoughts. Leuillet now loved his wife with a calm trustful affection; he loved her as a tender, devoted partner, who is an equal and a confidante. But there still lingered in his soul a singular and unaccountable grudge against the deceased Souris, who had been the first to possess this woman, who had had the flower of her youth and of her soul, and who had even robbed her of her poetic attributes. The memory of the dead husband spoiled the happiness of the living husband; and this posthumous jealousy now began to torment Leuillet's heart day and night.
The result was that he was incessantly talking about Souris, asking a thousand minute and intimate questions about him, and seeking for information as to all his habits and personal characteristics. And he pursued him with railleries even into the depths of the tomb, recalling with self-satisfaction his oddities, emphasizing his absurdities, and pointing out his defects.
Every minute he kept calling out to his wife from one end to the other of the house:
"Hallo, Mathilde!"
"Here am I, dear."
"Come and let us have a chat."
She always came over to him, smiling, well aware that Souris was to be the subject of the chat, and anxious to gratify her second husband's harmless fad.
"I say! do you remember how Souris wanted, one day, to prove to me that small men are always better loved than big men?"
And he launched out into reflections unfavorable to the defunct husband, who was small, and discreetly complimentary to himself, as he happened to be tall.
And Mme. Leuillet let him think that he was quite right; and she laughed very heartily, turned the first husband into ridicule in a playful fashion for the amusement of his successor, who always ended by remarking:
"Never mind! Souris was a muff!"
They were happy, quite happy. And Leuillet never ceased to testify his unabated attachment to his wife by all the usual manifestations.
Now, one night when they happened to be both kept awake by the renewal of youthful ardor, Leuillet, who held his wife clasped tightly in his arms, and had his lips glued to hers, said:
"Tell me this, darling."
"Souris — 'tisn't easy to put the question — was he very — very amorous?"
She gave him a warm kiss, as she murmured:
"Not so much as you, my duck."
His male vanity was flattered, and he went on:
"He must have been — rather a flat — eh?"
She did not answer. There was merely a sly little laugh on her face, which she pressed close to her husband's neck.
He persisted in his questions:
"Come now! Don't deny that he was a flat — well, I mean, rather an awkward sort of fellow?"
She nodded slightly.
"Well, yes, rather awkward."
He went on:
"I'm sure he used to weary you many a night — isn't that so?"
This time, she had an access of frankness, and she replied:
"Oh! yes."
He embraced her once more when she made this acknowledgment, and murmured:
"What an ass he was! You were not happy with him?"
She answered:
"No. He was not always jolly."
Leuillet felt quite delighted, making a comparison in his own mind between his wife's former situation and her present one.
He remained silent for some time: then, with a fresh outburst of merit, he said:
"Tell me this!"
"Will you be quite candid — quite candid with me?"
"Certainly, dear."
"Well, look here! Have you never been tempted to — to deceive this imbecile, Souris?"
Mme. Leuillet uttered a little "Oh!" in a shamefaced way, and again cuddled her face closer to her husband's chest. But he could see that she was laughing.
He persisted:
"Come now, confess it! He had a head just suited for a cuckold, this blockhead! It would be so funny! This good Souris! Oh! I say, darling, you might tell it to me — only to me!"
He emphasized the words "to me," feeling certain that if she wanted to show any taste when she deceived her husband, he, Leuillet, would have been the man; and he quivered with joy at the expectation of this avowal, sure that if she had not been the virtuous woman she was he could have had her then.
But she did not reply, laughing incessantly as if at the recollection of something infinitely comic.
Leuillet, in his turn, burst out laughing at the notion that he might have made a cuckold of Souris. What a good joke! What a capital bit of fun, to be sure!
He exclaimed in a voice broken by convulsions of laughter.
"Oh! poor Souris! poor Souris! Ah! yes, he had that sort of head — oh, certainly he had!"
And Mme. Leuillet now twisted herself under the sheets, laughing till the tears almost came into her eyes.
And Leuillet repeated: "Come, confess it! confess it! Be candid. You must know that it cannot be unpleasant to me to hear such a thing."
Then she stammered, still choking with laughter.
"Yes, yes."
Her husband pressed her for an answer.
"Yes, what? Look here! tell me everything."
She was now laughing in a more subdued fashion, and, raising her mouth up to Leuillet's ear, which was held towards her in anticipation of some pleasant piece of confidence, she whispered — "Yes, I did deceive him!"
He felt a cold shiver down his back, and utterly dumbfounded, he gasped.
"You — you — did — really — deceive him?"
She was still under the impression that he thought the thing infinitely pleasant, and replied.
"Yes — really — really."
He was obliged to sit up in bed so great was the shock he received, holding his breath, just as overwhelmed as if he had just been told that he was a cuckold himself. At first, he was unable to articulate properly; then after the lapse of a minute or so, he merely ejaculated.
She, too, had stopped laughing now, realizing her mistake too late.
Leuillet, at length asked.
"And with whom?"
She kept silent, cudgeling her brain to find some excuse.
He repeated his question.
"With whom?"
At last, she said.
"With a young man."
He turned towards her abruptly, and in a dry tone, said.
"Well, I suppose it wasn't with some kitchen wench. I ask you who was the young man — do you understand?"
She did not answer. He tore away the sheet which she had drawn over her head, and pushed her into the middle of the bed, repeating.
"I want to know with what young man — do you understand?"
Then, she replied with some difficulty in uttering the words.
"I only wanted to laugh." But he fairly shook with rage: "What? How is that? You only wanted to laugh? So then you were making game of me? I'm not going to be satisfied with these evasions, let me tell you! I ask you what was the young man's name?"
She did not reply, but lay motionless on her back.
He caught hold of her arm and pressed it tightly.
"Do you hear me, I say? I want you to give me an answer when I speak to you."
Then, she said, in nervous tones.
"I think you must be going mad! Let me alone!"
He trembled with fury, so exasperated that he scarcely knew what he was saying, and, shaking her with all his strength, he repeated.
"Do you hear me? do you hear me?"
She wrenched herself out of his grasp with a sudden movement, and with the tips of her fingers slapped her husband on the nose. He entirely lost his temper, feeling that he had been struck, and angrily pounced down on her.
He now held her under him, boxing her ears in a most violent manner, and exclaiming:
"Take that — and that — and that — there you are, you trollop!"
Then, when he was out of breath, exhausted from beating her, he got up, and went over to the chest of drawers to get himself a glass of sugared orange-water for he was almost ready to faint after his exertion.
And she lay huddled up in bed, crying and heaving great sobs, feeling that there was an end of her happiness, and that it was all her own fault.
Then, in the midst of her tears, she faltered:
"Listen, Antoine, come here! I told you a lie — listen! I'll explain it to you."
And now, prepared to defend herself, armed with excuses and subterfuges, she slightly raised her head all tangled under her crumpled nightcap.
And he, turning towards her, drew close to her, ashamed at having whacked her, but feeling intensely still in his heart's core as a husband an inexhaustible hatred against that woman who had deceived his predecessor, Souris.

When I decided to get started back blogging I didn't exactly know where to start
and then I remembered what Flylady says. She says to start right where you are so
this shed is what we've been dealing with lately.
This is the way it looked when we bought the place.
It was full of stuff!!!
We ended up tearing half of it down and using what we could.
I stored my chicken feed in silver trash cans in there.
We had a lot of outside stuff in there and all our lawn mowers, tillers, etc.
Two days ago this is how it looked.
Yep its gone!
We are going to rebuild it soon. The concrete pad will be
all enclosed. I am so excited because I have never got to
really unpack my upstairs yet and fix it up.
There will also be a place to put all our trailers,
outside equipment, & hopefully a boat one day!
That's my little dream. We have always had a fishing boat!!!
We need some play days!
We are slowly getting all our toys back!!!
This is what it looks like today!
We are getting there!
Since day one Sweet Hunter has wanted this gone.
He had a vision of what he wanted.
Its a slow go but hopefully we can build it back soon.
I was so worried that my chickens would not understand because
they free range and they loved the shed but they are adjusting well.
I do wonder what they are thinking!

I think you missed the point, Ubuntu's work would then be part of Debian rather than superceding or conflicting with what Debian does. Instead of Debian annoying its users by adopting Ubuntu-like feature, or annoying Ubuntu by not doing so, everyone would be able to get what they want within a reusable framework.

Iona's defensive effort left Tim Cluess noticeably satisfied after Gaels yielded just 51 points to Manhattan five days after allowing more than double that against Rider. (Photo by Brian Beyrer/Iona College Athletics)
NEW ROCHELLE, NY -- It was a total 180-degree turn from Sunday's final score.
Five days removed from surrendering 103 points to Rider in a one-sided loss, Iona clamped down defensively, allowing just 51 points to Manhattan in a 21-point blowout that served as the largest margin of victory against the Jaspers since the 2010-11 season. The Gaels will try to build off Friday's effort in their final regular season contest against Monmouth on Sunday, but we leave you with a handful of takeaways from the transpirings before a sellout crowd at the Hynes Athletics Center in the interim:
1) The part of Iona's game nobody talks about...outside the locker room.
Reputed for their offense, the reigning MAAC champions receive little or no credit for what they do on the defensive end, which will make Friday's score surprising to casual observers. Inside the program, though, nothing could be further from the truth.
"That's what we always talk about," Jordan Washington revealed. "We don't talk about offense or anything, we just talk about defense, defense, defense. Helping each other, getting each other's back, that's what we have to do. That's all we talk about, straight defense."
2) Riding the hot hand.
Iona usually has two or three players who handle the lion's share of the offense. Friday was an exception, as four Gaels contributed double-figure scoring nights to the winning cause, headlined by Deyshonee Much's 19 points. However, Iona's success is not predicated; at least not by design, on just one man.
"As teammates, it shouldn't be 'let me get mine,'" said Much. "If one guy's standing out on a certain night, then we just find ways to get him the ball. We all practice the same thing. Iona's been known for being able to shoot the ball well, and we're all doing that. Whoever comes out hotter, as teammates, we find a way to get him the ball."
3) Much love for Much.
The Gaels' explosive wing admitted he felt more confident Friday night, and his teammates were the source of inspiration on that front.
"We picked him up," said Washington, who posted a double-double with 18 points and 10 rebounds. "Every time we see Dey down or anything, we've always got to come as a team and bring him together."
4) Hitting their stride at the right time again?
Iona first showed their championship form in a defensive clinic at Monmouth on February 19 of last year, crippling the potent Hawk offense to kick-start a rally to the NCAA Tournament. Friday's game showed a similar parallel, and a far cry from the previous impression the Gaels left on the floor.
"You always hope that you're going to continue to do good in certain areas when you do well," head coach Tim Cluess conceded. "We know if we're going to be able to do anything and make a run, it's got to be with our defense being solid. I thought they brought a very good step tonight in going in that direction."
5) Previewing Sunday's game against Monmouth:
The Gaels come in carrying the distinct statistic of never being swept by a MAAC opponent since Cluess replaced Kevin Willard in 2010. Monmouth will arrive in New Rochelle on a 15-game win streak and the most momentum the program has seen at any given time, once again seeking atonement for last March's narrow loss in the MAAC championship game. Something has to give, and Cluess admitted that the Hawks may have more pressure on them even if seeding is not openly discussed in the locker room.
"Everybody else's job is to shoot for them and go after them," he said of Monmouth and the deserved target on the Hawks' backs. "Our job is to go out and play the best we can, no matter who we play, every time we step on the court, and give ourselves a chance to win every time we step out there."
"The No. 1 seed always has the most pressure on them, that's just the way it is," he elaborated. "They've been in front for so long that they've kind of just taken off, and someone's going to have to be on their A-game to beat them."

One of our cats is walking around on drugs at the moment.. he just took half a valium and hahaha it's funny watching him walk...
Things have been rather blah as of late.. sleep, work, home and repeat.
Saw Trandformers 2 on Tuesday night.. not a bad movie. I feel the need to go and see more movies.
Things with Ash are still very much up in the air and confusing.... she is going through some rough things at the moment.. Yesterday was the 11 month aniversary of her Wife's murder and tomorrow her mother has surgery to remove her lung or part of (not really sure and I didn't want to push for details cause she is upset) So I am standing back but letting her know if she needs me I am there for her.
I applied for a internal position at work as the Dva supervisor. It will mean set hours Mon - Fri and working for myself, kinda. I actually don't think I have much chance but at least I gave it a go.
Hmmm there is a lot of confusion in my head... it's all cloudy at the moment.

It's time for another Austin Sports Medicine 101 class! In past blogs, we've talked about what to do before a race, as well as tips for during a race – today we're discussing tips on what to do AFTER the big race. Read on for something healthy hints on how to treat your body and mind after a long run:
- Don't sit. Walk around for a few minutes to bring your heart rate down slowly and to avoid the risk of blood pooling in your legs.
- Dry clothes. Once your body starts to slow down, those wet running clothes will start to bother you and maybe give you the chills. Change into something warm and soft. Also put on another pair of shoes that provide plenty of support.
- Assess your pain levels. If you're in a lot of pain or just don't feel quite right, head to the medical tent immediately.
- Drink. A combination of water and sports drinks will help replenish lost fluids, sodium and electrolytes.
- Eat carbohydrates and proteins. Your muscles need help repairing themselves after an intense run. A 3 to 1 ratio of carbs to protein can do the most good within 30 minutes after the event. The right balance of food can also help minimize sore muscles and stiffness.

Pest Description
Pigeons, starlings, sparrows. Nice birds. But once they invade a building or an area, their nests and droppings create an unsightly nuisance, spreading germs and parasites that can cause as many as 60 different diseases, infections, and illnesses in humans.
With warmer winters, birds are becoming more of a year-round issue, even in northern climates.
Nesting birds not only tend to be noisy, they typically are messy and can cause damage to your home. They roost in eaves, peck through shingles, siding and even through rafters. Some species, like woodpeckers, will hunt for soft spots in wood, looking for insects and can cause major damage in a matter of minutes.
Anderson Solves Bird Pest Problems
To solve a bird infestation problem – and to permanently prevent the birds' return – requires an experienced team of bird control professionals. Anderson has been providing commercial and residential customers with permanent solutions since 1913. Our Four-Step Process is so effective that we offer a full money-back guarantee.

RSIOC celebrates Dia de los Ninos!
Every year the Renascence School celebrates Dia de los Ninos, a Spanish holiday that celebrates children! This is a special day set aside to connect children to the world of learning through books and stories. The elementary students made book marks in Spanish class and learned about the literary legacy of Miguel de Cervantes (Don Quixote). The preschool students peeled and cut fruit to make delicious and healthy fruit kabobs! They also made homemade playdoh and mixed in various koolaid powers to change the color and smell of the playdoh.
Students enjoyed learning more about the Spanish culture and practicing their Spanish vocabulary throughout the day.

Oil Change, the well-shot, well-oiled, and overly sensational tele-doc that is now in Season 3, airs tonight north of the border on SportsNet. Chronicling the life of the Edmonton Oiler as "change" occurs over the last two seasons has been fun to watch. However, there remains a bit of irony in naming a show "Oil Change" when very little has changed (in terms of the team improving). For the production company behind it (and the fans whom watch it), they are banking on this year to be different.
For those of us in the US, and primarily in Oklahoma City, the five one-hour segments of the show will heavily feature the time spent by NHL guys in the AHL. And thus you'll see lots of Barons face-time. In the short promo, seen here, we get the "boys" biking through the Deep Deuce area of Bricktown, eating a local establishments, and Jim Byers vocal chords. While the rest of the OKC media often ignored the team, the Canadian film crew watched every move. And it will be interesting to get a behind-the-scenes perspective of how Prodigal/Barons handled the newcomers. Tune in.
Those in the US can catch Episode one of season thirteen beginning this weekend on the NHL Network. Here's the schedule:
Saturday, February 2, 04:30 pm on NHL Network USA
Sunday, February 3, 12:30 pm on NHL Network USA
Wednesday, February 6, 08:00 pm on NHL Network USA
Sunday, February 10, 12:30 pm on NHL Network USA
All times eastern

"Intel and Micron plan to further shrink NAND circuitry, doubling the density of their flash chips and further reducing the cost of solid state drive (SSD) storage. IM Flash Technologies (IMFT), Intel and Micron's joint venture, released 25 nanometer (nm) circuitry a little over a year ago. In the next few weeks, IMFT plans to annouce 20nm NAND flash chip production."
Behind all that technical jargon, you should find one very important bit of information: SSDs are going to get cheaper! Well, I hope they will at least. They could always just double the capacity and maintain the same price, still keeping SSDs out of complate mainstream acceptance. Also, if their claims are to be believed, the shrinking of manufacturers for SSDs at this scale could mean higher prices. Only time will tell.

Over the Boards: Equipment staffs gear up for Classicby Dan Rosen
ANN ARBOR, Mich. -- The players and coaches have done their share of personal prep work for the 2014 Bridgestone NHL Winter Classic, such as securing enough tickets and making sure their families got on the University of Michigan ice to skate.
However, such prep work pales in comparison to the ongoing efforts put forth by the hardest-working guys associated with the Toronto Maple Leafs and Detroit Red Wings these days.
The equipment managers and their staffs are in charge of making sure every player is comfortable enough to play at a top level and every coach is warm enough to work the bench the way they normally would in an indoor game.
Preparing their teams for the Winter Classic has been the equivalent of a second full-time job for Red Wings equipment manager Paul Boyer and Maple Leafs equipment manager Brian Papineau.
"For the last six weeks, it seems like your main focus is getting ready for this big event," Papineau told NHL.com as he watched the Maple Leafs practice Tuesday. "As excited as we are to be here and to be a part of it, it will be rewarding when it's over to look back at a lot of good memories."
Papineau is experiencing the Winter Classic for the first time, but Boyer is in his second go-round, having worked the 2009 game at Wrigley Field.
The on-ice competition between the Maple Leafs and Red Wings did not extend to the equipment managers because Boyer said he spoke with Papineau in the weeks leading up the arrival at The Big House to offer guidance based on his prior Winter Classic experience.
"I'm not going to hold out on that," Boyer said. "It's not going to win or lose the game. They play the game out here on the ice."
The Maple Leafs and Red Wings began getting the players ready for the Winter Classic weeks ago, when the respective staffs started outfitting the players with new pants, socks and gloves they will wear during the game Wednesday. The goalies each have new helmets and pads as well.
In addition, Detroit's skaters will be wearing new helmets; Boyer said it would have taken too long for his staff to apply all of the proper decals on the red helmets they will wear after the team played Monday night against the Nashville Predators. Toronto's skaters will be wearing their regular blue helmets with all the Winter Classic decals on them. The Maple Leafs have not played since Sunday.
Boyer said the Red Wings' players practiced in their new equipment for two days earlier this month to break in the equipment. Papineau said his guys started breaking the gear in six weeks ago.
"The biggest thing now is dealing with the cold weather, making sure the players are well-equipped with extra layers of underwear," Papineau said. "Actually, before we left Toronto we had all the guys pick out some cold-weather gear, but now that we're here and it's much colder than what we were hoping for, they've grabbed some extra layers as well."
The forecast is calling for temperature in the mid-teens with the strong potential for snow flurries Wednesday afternoon. The weather is a major factor in how the equipment managers do their jobs.
"It's everything from equipment to getting gear on guys to making sure guys are warm enough to making sure the hollows of the skates are done right," Boyer said. "It all depends on the weather. If it's cold outside, the ice might be brittle, so you want to pull a hollow out and make it shallower, not as deep, so the guy can skate on top of it, not through it. A deeper hollow would shatter the ice apart and then you'd have ice good for margaritas."
Most players commented on how solid the ice was Tuesday, but Papineau said he will have to wait to get more feedback before deciding how he'll need to sharpen skates for the game Wednesday. He also said he's not sure if players will want to have hand warmers inside their gloves, feet warmers inside their skate boots, tinted visors, eye black or balaclavas underneath their helmets.
A balaclava is a cloth headgear that covers everything but the eyes. The mouth can be exposed as well. Several players were wearing them for practice Tuesday.
"It's different things that you just never think of," Papineau said. "Guys will wear them in practice, but sometimes you get to game time and you never know. I think [Phil Kessel] was looking for something to keep his toes warm, but sometimes you put stuff in your skate and it changes your fit."
Red Wings defenseman Niklas Kronwall said he will be wearing eye black.
"I remember back to Wrigley Field, I thought it looked kind of silly when guys were doing it, but it does actually help," Kronwall said. "That's definitely something I'll wear."
The equipment managers also have to outfit the coaches. Boyer had the Red Wings coaches wearing collegiate jackets and fedoras at the Winter Classic in 2009, but he said they'll be wearing regular jackets and toques Wednesday.
"I didn't feel there was enough nostalgia in our uniform to bring the fedora back," Boyer said. "The last one we wore was an old Red Wings jersey, and I felt it was a better tie-in, but I didn't want to do the same thing twice."
Maple Leafs coach Randy Carlyle and his assistants will be outfitted in collegiate jackets and toques, Papineau said. They'll have the option to wear insulated shirts.
"I've talked to other trainers about what they've experienced in the past Winter Classics, and guys all talk about how much prep it is to get ready for it, but they also say make sure you enjoy it because it's quite an event," Papineau said. "We're so fortunate to be a part of it, and it's something I'll always remember."
Venue for 2015 Winter Classic to be named soon
The League is getting closer to naming the venue for the 2015 NHL Winter Classic, which will be hosted by the Washington Capitals, NHL Chief Operating Officer John Collins said Tuesday, noting the League has done site visits at FedEx Field, RFK Stadium and Nationals Park.
Ex-NHL coach Paul Maurice, who is working at the Winter Classic for NHL Network, talking about being at the big event for the first time:
"I'm really glad I'm here to take this in. I'm really glad I got invited to cover it. You go on the air, and you want to tell people what's going on in the game, but this is a new experience for me. I had no idea what to pack. I'm wearing a shirt and tie, but I went out and bought some boots. Had I known, I would have brought the ski underwear too. I'm looking forward to it. I really am."
Pierre McGuire talking about what he expects the atmosphere at The Big House to be like from his vantage point between the benches:
"When you just walk down this tunnel and you see the stands empty, I can only envision what it's going to be like with the stands full. I remember Pittsburgh (in 2011) so well, and all the noise just cascaded down on top of you because it was a football environment. I've got to think it's going to be the same, with maybe 40,000 more people here. I think the game will be played at a high pace just because of the caliber of the ice. I think the ice will be really good."
"We're into it now, so I think soon," Collins said. "No timeframe, though. It's important, a priority, and we want to get it done, but it's in the hopper with all the other outdoor games, the Olympics and World Cup talks that we have going on."
Collins said the opponent in the 2015 Winter Classic likely won't be named until around the time the NHL releases the full 2014-15 schedule in June.
"The opponent is something that is ultimately part of the whole scheduling process, so that comes a little later," he said. "We've been announcing the schedule before the [NHL] Draft."
Jaffe completing the Michigan round-tripper
Billy Jaffe, a Michigan alumnus, is covering the Winter Classic as an analyst for NHL Network. Jaffe has already worked three outdoor games with ties to his school.
He was an analyst for the Cold War game on Oct. 6, 2001, at Spartan Stadium between Michigan State and Michigan. Nine years later, he worked The Big Chill at the Big House between the Spartans and Wolverines on Dec. 11, 2010. He also was on the broadcast team that worked the Frozen Diamond Faceoff on Jan. 15, 2012, between Michigan and Ohio State at Progressive Field in Cleveland.
"To have been in the Cold War, when it had never been done before, that was like, 'Whoa,'" Jaffe said. "Then having gone to school at Michigan, having done that game [at Spartan Stadium] and then to come here [Michigan Stadium] for The Big Chill, it was even more 'Whoa.' It went from 74,000 people to 104,000 people. It was awesome."
Jaffe said the buildup to the Winter Classic has a much different feel than any of the previous college outdoor games he worked.
"It's the NHL. It's just bigger," he said. "The Michigan people are very excited to have the NHL people here. They want to see how the NHL is doing things here, so if they want to do it again, they can see how they can do it better. Remember, they didn't put anything on the football field around the rink, but they're looking at that now and thinking that it looks cool."
Jaffe got to interview his former coach, Michigan's Red Berenson, as part of his duties here for NHL Network, and said it's always surreal for him when he gets the chance to control the conversation with Berenson.
"Let's just say I wasn't the most talented player, so I didn't see the ice a lot, but there are two times in my so-called career that I could control it with Red," Jaffe said. "One [was] when I was a linesman in the CCHA, and he was standing behind me and yapping at me because he didn't like the referee's call, and now for the interview here. He is the epitome of what a passionate college hockey and hockey man is about."
Mini ice-resurfacing machines at the Winter Classic
The ice-resurfacing machines that will be used Wednesday are smaller than the normal machines used in indoor rinks. NHL Senior Director of Facilities Operations Dan Craig said he could use the regular machines at The Big House, but he needs to test the smaller machines because he will need them in Los Angeles for the 2014 Coors Light Stadium Series game at Dodger Stadium on Jan. 25.
Craig said the warmer L.A. climate requires him to build a thinner sheet of ice, likely around an inch and three-quarters, because thinner ice allows him to remove heat from the surface faster. If he used regulation-size resurfacing machines at Dodger Stadium, they could crack the thinner ice.
"It's totally a weight thing," Craig said. "We remove heat. That's refrigeration 101. With a thinner surface, I remove heat faster. I need them here so we can do a good test run here so when we go to Los Angeles and get into a warmer climate, I get that thinner ice surface, can run the machines, and have as good of an ice surface as we have in this type of climate [in Ann Arbor, Mich.]."
'Canadian summer' for one analyst
NBC's Pierre McGuire said the coldest he's been at a Winter Classic was in 2009 at Wrigley Field. He expects to be colder Wednesday at Michigan Stadium, but he's not too concerned considering how cold he was as recently as last week.
"Last week, I was skating in Northern Quebec, in Mont Tremblant," McGuire said. "Mario Lemieux lives not far from me, and I said, 'Come on out and skate.' He says, 'My old bones aren't going out there.' So I went out there, and it was close to minus-30 degrees Celsius. That's cold enough. This is Canadian summer here [in Ann Arbor]."
He was joking because he's aware that the temperature for the game is supposed to be somewhere in the teens with snow flurries. McGuire won't have a heater beside him when he stands between the benches to help Mike 'Doc' Emrick and Eddie Olczyk call the game for NBC, nor will he be wearing feet warmers inside his skates.
McGuire doesn't think the cold is going to affect him during the broadcast, saying he's too excited to let it because the Winter Classic gives him a chance to tell different stories than he normally does during indoor games.
"Part of the reason why is you're not just celebrating the great hockey play, you're celebrating the stories," he said. "Whether it's the fans in the stands, the players on the bench, a heating situation on the bench, a stick snapping because of the cold -- there are just so many different storylines."
This and that
* Red Wings players and Michigan natives Danny DeKeyser and Justin Abdelkader said they have attended one football game at The Big House.
DeKeyser, who is from Macomb, Mich., which is approximately 70 miles from Ann Arbor, attended a game against Illinois before he started going to Western Michigan University. He said he grew up a Wolverines fan, but dropped them quickly when he went to WMU.
Abdelkader, a Muskegon, Mich., native who went to Michigan State, watched his Spartans lose on a last-second field goal.
"But it was pretty neat seeing a game here," Abdelkader said.
* Toronto forward James van Riemsdyk is appearing in his third Winter Classic and hoping for his first win. He played for the Philadelphia Flyers at Fenway Park in 2010 (a 2-1 overtime loss to the Boston Bruins) and at Citizens Bank Park in 2012 (a 3-2 loss to the New York Rangers).
"The memories will be a lot better if you win the game," van Riemsdyk said. "I haven't won one of these yet, so I'd like to win one."
* Abdelkader said he is planning to watch Michigan State against Stanford in the Rose Bowl after he plays in the Winter Classic on Wednesday. Michigan State is making its first appearance in the Rose Bowl in 26 years.
* The NHL released some interesting numbers associated with the Winter Classic. A few were quite eye-catching, such as the 350 gallons of white paint that was used on the rink at Michigan Stadium, and the 3,000 gallons of coolant used to freeze the rink. The League estimates that the 1,846 people manning the concession stands Wednesday will brew 3,688 gallons of hot chocolate and sell 14,150 hot pretzels and 38,450 hot dogs.

"…I read of a man who stood to speak at the funeral of a friend.
He referred to the dates on her tombstone, from the beginning to the end.
He noted that first came her date of birth, and spoke the following date with tears,
But he said what mattered most of all was the dash between those years…"
The way we live our lives creates a ripple effect, like a stone cast into a pond, and we are so often unaware of the reach our decisions have, or the impact they will make on others.
We so often take for granted our good health, our homes, our jobs and family. We wish away the dishes, the teething, the laundry, the terrible twos, the troublesome teens without giving thought to how we are blessed with the opportunity to experience them.
Every trial, every tribulation is another opportunity to appreciate that we are alive and well enough to experience it. Suffering of course, is a matter of perspective, but no one has ever put my life into perspective quite like Susan Niebur, or how I came to know her: @whymommy.
I don't remember how I stumbled across her blog, or her twitter account, I just know that I am forever changed because I did. She is a woman about my age, a mother, a friend, a blogger, a 4 time cancer survivor, a wife, an astrophysicist and perhaps one of the most exceptional people I've ever crossed paths with.
Since her original diagnosis, Susan has blogged her way into the hearts and lives of countless people across the globe. Her eloquent way of expressing herself in such honest, open terms allowed people from all walks of life to identify with and rally around her. An army of warriors championing her to defeat the disease that threatened everything she held dear.
Because of her open honest accounts of her cancer treatments, she has thrust Inflammatory Breast Cancer in to the lime light, and demanded more funds, more focus, and more research to be done. She is a one (wo)man army that is unstoppable. Because of Susan, women are learning that there is a breast cancer that is lethal and vicious, and comes without any lump.
Because of Susan and her blog and tireless efforts and unfathomable grace, I took notice of an irregularity in my own right breast, and with a lump the size of a golf ball in my throat, trotted off immediately to a doctor who didn't know what IBC was, but because of my insistence, they performed a biopsy (2, actually as they botched the first). Thankfully, it came back normal. We don't know what caused the discoloration in appearance, but it is now gone with nothing to remind me but an angry-looking scar.
My story had a happy ending, but it could have been different. And had it not been for Susan and her honesty, I wouldn't have paid it any attention. Explaining it away as a bug bite, or reaction, or bruise, or anything other than the scary big C. I know countless others have also yielded her advice, and I implore you all to do the same. Know your body. Be educated and don't take no for an answer.
To give you an indication of the impact this woman has had on virtual strangers, I point you to the @whymommy love fest. That is only part 1. Part 2 and 3 are floating on the interweb somewhere, and I believe the submissions keep pouring in. You can visit the @whymommy love fest on facebook, as well.
Her reach and her impact, her dash has been lived in such a way that is a shining example to everyone. She is every inch, every ounce nothing short of exceptional.
I don't know what the future holds for Susan, as here is an excerpt from her most recent blog post
"A conversation with my husband, shortly after arriving home this afternoon with fresh oxygen tanks, spots on my liver, fluid pushing around my lungs (likely filled with cancer, as are the tumors inside) and at least one broken vertebra that must be healed before we resume any kind of treatment. –
How did we get here? I asked my love, across the bed strewn with children's toys, books, and an oxygen tank."
But I do know that the future of women's cancer is more optimistic because of her, the path for women in planetary science blazes because of her and the ripples from the stones she has cast will outreach, and out last all of us.
Susan, I thank you from the bottom of my heart for letting us into your life. Whatever is in your future, I wish you peace and grace.
For more information on Inflammatory Breast Cancer please visit some of the following links:
Inflammatory Breast Cancer Research Foundation
Canadian Cancer Society – Symptoms
Breast Cancer Society of Canada
Discussion Boards (If you are looking for support)
If you're a mother with cancer, you are not alone, visit this tremendous group of women just like you. You are not alone
Please, share this information with your mother, sisters, aunts, neighbours, coworkers, friends, nieces and any woman you may know. IBC is not detected by mammogram, and it is unknown to many, many women.
It is with great sadness that we mark the passing of Susan Niebur on February 6th.
Her husband Curt writes a good bye post
Rest easy, Susan. You've made a difference.

Elephant Line
Elephants - 1DX, 200-400 @ 400mm, f/5.6, 1/400s, ISO 500
From elephants in the air to now on the ground, I just can't get enough of these majestic creatures. Its fascinating to watch them move through an area with the babies and juveniles in the middle being far more playful than the adults.

How do I get my fruit after I have ordered it?
FruitShare™ delivers your fruit right to your home, work or school. We send it to you with FedEx delivery, so you can be sure your fruit will get to you quickly. FruitShare™ can ship to all 48 contiguous states. With the exception of the Holiday Season—Where we pack and ship 5 days/week— and 2nd day shipping orders, we ship fruit early in the week (Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday), so that it will arrive to you later in the week without sitting for the weekend.
How long does fruit last after it has arrived?
The fruit will easily last two weeks in the refrigerator, and some can be left on the counter and enjoyed at room temperature for about four days at a time. With each shipment, we include a newsletter that has detailed information about how to store the specific types of fruit in your box.
How do I send fruit to someone as a gift?
FruitShare™ makes gift-giving easy. Simply order an Organic Fruit Gift Box and enter the address of the recipient in the "shipping address" section. We'll do the rest, and you can rest assured that you have picked the perfect, personal gift for family, friends, co-workers and clients.
What happens if I am out of town on a week when I am going to receive a box of fruit?
If you know you're going to be out of town during a week when your fruit will be delivered, just let us know by emailing email@example.com or calling 651-644-2800. We can easily delay your shipments for as long as you need. Remember, FruitShare™ can be delivered anywhere in the United States, so we can ship your box to you even if you aren't at home. Let us know where you'll be and how many shipments of fruit we should send to that address, and then enjoy your trip with fresh, organic fruit.

With each shipment, we send you a newsletter with information about which family grew your fruit, as well as health and wellness tips, recipes and other information.
How do you choose what fruit to ship each week?
FruitShare™ typically ships 4-6 varieties of in-season organic fruit in our mixed and gift boxes each week. We work hard to be sure our fruit is fresh, in-season, and great tasting!
Can I request to have more of my favorite fruit in my box?Yes, we will take requests within reason (you cant specify every piece in every pack) just send us an email at email@example.com and ask us to put more or less of something in your box. If you are requesting more of the expensive fruits we will contact you regarding any additional charges. Many of our customers supplement their fruit club shipments with the individual boxes of their favorite fruits such as blueberries, cherries, and peaches.
Fruit Clubs
How do the fruit clubs work?
Our Fruit Clubs are designed as a recurring order and your credit card is charged with each shipment.
What club is best for me? Consider these two factors: The size of the box (full or half share), and the Frequency of Delivery (weekly, every other week, or monthly).
First determine the amount that will work best for you. A Full share box is designed for families and Fruit lovers and contains between 24-30 pieces of fruit.
Our Half Share is designed for singles, couples, and those who don't eat quite as much fruit. Each box contains 12-15 pieces of fruit.
Next determine the frequency of Delivery. If you want delivery every other week then select one of our Farm Fresh Fruit Club options. If you want a monthly Delivery select one of our Fruit of the Month Club options.
What if I need to stop the club or hold a shipment? We want the fruit clubs to work for you. If you need to discontinue or delay a shipment due to travel plans. Contact us at firstname.lastname@example.com . We will help you with this.
What if I need to change my club and get more or less fruit? No problem, contact us and we will alter your subscription to fit you and your family's needs.
Fruit For the Office:
What do you recommend? For the office we recommend our EmployeeWellness Club. This is a re-curing order typically set up for weekly delivery (but we can customize this for you). For this pack we include fruits easier to grab-n-go (no grapefruit or avocados in these boxes).
How many boxes do I need? Employee Wellness clubs are set up for 12 or 24 pieces of fruit per box. Determine the number of people in your office and order the appropriate quantity of boxes. We are happy to make recommendations for you. 651.644.2800
Single Gift Boxes
Most of our products are single shipments unless they say "club" in the description. Two of our most popular items are our Organic Fruit Gift and our Organic Fruit Mixed Box.
Gifts to Multiple Addresses and corporate orders
I am interested in sending gifts to multiple addresses. How do I do this? Currently customers are only able to ship to one address in each individual order. So if you are shipping three gifts you will need to create three orders. We are working to improve this. If you are shipping to your Holiday gift list, contact us and we will gladly get this set up for you. email@example.com or 651.644.2800
What are the shipping costs? Currently standard ground/home delivery is included in the item price. 2nd day shipping is an additional cost—and recommended for more delicate fruits such as Blueberries, Cherries, and Peaches. You can also select 2ndday shipping at checkout if it is a rush order.
Expedited 2nd day shipping: Orders must be placed by 12 noon for the order to processed and shipped that day. If later we will make every effort but cannot guarantee it will go out. In that case the package will ship the following business day. Please note 2-day shipping does not include the weekend so in some cases it is better to ship the gift the following Monday to ensure a better arrival.
Our Return Policy
FruitShare products are perishable and cannot be returned. These products are covered by our Satisfaction Guarantee and will be replaced or refunded within 30 days of purchase if they arrive damaged.
We make every effort to ensure that the fruit and gourmet food items we feature on our site are in season and available. In some areas with a shorter growing season, this is not possible.

Apple's new iPhone lineup includes wireless charging support across the board. Apple shockingly chose to adopt the Qi wireless charging standard instead of using something proprietary, so that means just about any wireless charging pad or stand will work with your new iPhone X, iPhone 8 Plus, or iPhone 8. But not all wireless chargers are created equal so we recommend our favorite charging pad, the RAVPower Fast Wireless Charger. It's a gorgeous wireless charger made of metal to complement your iPhone's sleek design, and it supports the fast wireless charging tech that was enabled by Apple's recent iOS 11.2 update. It's a bit pricey at $50, but the coupon code TV2PAH4O will save you 20%, so you'll only pay $39.99!
Here are some highlights from the Amazon page:
- Note: Whether your iPhone is being standard charged, fast charged, or fully charged, the LED will stay orange and NOT turn green as iPhones do not send any signal to the wireless charger. Please do not place anything between your iPhone and charger, or the latter will not work.
- 7.5W wireless charging for newest iPhone X / 8 Plus / 8 is enabled in the latest iOS 11.2 update – faster than traditional 3.5W-5W wireless chargers
- Compatible with All Qi-Enabled Phones: Includes iPhone X, iPhone 8, 8 Plus, Samsung Galaxy S8, S8 Plus; non-Qi enabled phones are still compatible but will require a Qi wireless charging cover to power up
- Fast & Free 24W QC 3.0 Adapter: Includes a powerful Quick Charge 3. 0 adapter that boosts the max output to 10W so selected Samsung Galaxy, Google Nexus, or Microsoft Lumia phones can charge even faster
- Portable, Practical, Stylish, and Safe: Lightweight, take anywhere size with silicone anti-skid design to prevent sliding; smart battery indicator; built-in over-current, over-voltage, and over-temperature protection systems

|Entry Hall and Staircase - The Driehaus Museum
THANK YOU Mr. Richard H. Dreihaus. Chicago could use more people like you to help us preserve our legacy and open it up to the public.
|Louis Comfort Nautilus Tiffany Lamp -
Driehaus Museum
I suggest reading the website completely in advance and then playing "stump the tour guide" :) I took the general tour which was very worthwhile for the additional detail regarding the prior owners and the artwork.
I was disappointed to find out that the home's conservatory had been removed to make room for the office building next door. I know that women of the period loved their conservatories and desired to find a unique flower varietal to show and have named after them. Perhaps the Nickerson Chrysanthemum? I could just see the green off the dining room, with a wonderful floral aroma melding into the dinner service. Well, I love my plants and conservatories - so it was sad to not have it present. Moreover, there were no plants throughout the museum. In touring other period homes, and reading of the time, I understood that elite homes were showcases of antiques, expensive furnishings, and works of art. Most often a wide and equally diverse and valuable collection profusion of plants and flowers helped to tie such assemblages, carefully considered to form satisfying color harmonies into a pleasing, picturesque uniform whole.
One of the biggest things that I have on my mind is what did life in Chicago look like for the "regular folk." In the years after the fire, with continued immigration, crowding, lack of infrastructure... what would my life have looked like? I wish there were a similar museum to the experience for those people who are immortalized in Upton Sinclair's "the Jungle." This visit made me want to reread that classic - and I am doing just that! Time to go to the Back of The Yard neighborhood.
I hope you will explore Chicago and see this gem.
I don't know what the top sheet music of the late 1890's was...

text: After a deal with NOLA fell through earlier in the summer, Sacramento's reached an agreement with Luther Head. Yahoo has more: "After a dubious failed physical that nullified an agreement with the New Orleans Hornets in mid-July, free agent guard Luther Head has agreed to a non-guaranteed deal with the Sacramento Kings, league sources told Yahoo! Sports. If Sacramento finds that Head's ankle is healthy, he has a good chance to make the roster and play a reserve role for the Kings, sources say. Head is guaranteed $992,000 for the 2010-11 season, if he's on the Kings roster on Dec. 1, one source says. And yet like the rest of the league, the Kings were unwilling to guarantee the deal because Hornets president Hugh Weber declared that Head had flunked his physical in July. …The Kings are also inviting former Celtics and Knicks forward J.R. Giddens to training camp with a non-guaranteed deal, Yahoo! Sports' Marc Spears reports."

Piping plover parent with chick underwing, Sandy Point State Reservation
Another interesting tidbit I came across while reading up on piping plovers recently, in addition to what I posted yesterday about plover chicks being entirely responsible for feeding themselves, is related to the role of the parents. While both the male and female share responsibility for incubating the nest, it is relatively common for the female to abandon the brood within a week of the chicks hatching. That leaves the male in charge of protecting the chicks until they fledge a few weeks later. I'm not sure if this is a male or female parent, but there is a very young chick tucked under its left wing. You can see a tiny leg sticking out and the top of its downy head under the popped-up feathers.

Tiny voracious predator, Piping plover chick at Sandy Point State Reservation
When I was looking up information about how to identify a piping plover fledgling, I came across an interesting fact -- piping plover chicks are entirely responsible for feeding themselves! While watching the chicks on the beach at Sandy Point Reservation on multiple occasions this summer, I was interested to observe how much time they seemed to spend catching bugs. They appeared to be on a constant search for food, which now makes a lot of sense to me. It would also seem to explain why all of the chicks in the same clutch would often run in separate directions after warming up under their parent. Pretty incredible to think that a few hours after they hatch, these adorable tiny predators are already leaving the nest and looking for prey.

Early morning blues, Piping plover on Plum Island
Nothing much to be blue about on this morning (or any morning when you're out to do some photography at sunrise!) unless you're the morning light reflecting off the water in the background. I took this photograph on a mid-July trip to Sandy Point State Reservation on Plum Island, and I suspect that this is a fledgling from one of the piping plover clutches I saw as tiny chicks in early June.

Curious piping plover chick, Sandy Point State Reservation
The uneven sand along the high tide line of Sandy Point State Reservation made for an fun setting to photograph this piping plover chick as it curiously checked out the photographer laying in the sand. At times, some objects in the wrack obstructed the frame, but when it stepped into the right location, it was exciting to capture this dreamy effect of an exaggeratedly shallow depth of field.

Last rays of sunlight above the fog, Mount Tamalpais State Park
As I mentioned in my previous post, I am enamored with landscape photographs that take place above the fog. I've seen so many glorious images of the Golden Gate Bridge draped in fog over the years, and I recall a specific image from this area of Mt Tam that appeared in a CSPF bulletin a few years back. I had always wanted to try to capture such an image myself, but regrettably never made the opportunity for myself while living in California. It took until my trip back to the west coast last summer to finally be present with the right conditions. Though as I wrote about last year, I still ended up pulling into a turnout different than I had intended as time was running out.

Little Secrets And Steps In The Professional Makeup
Make up is a decorative facial treatment during which a professional makeup artist beautifies your face through several steps, using different decorative materials and products tailored to skin type and using different makeup accessories.
Get to know the steps and some of the secrets of professional makeup.
Who is a professional makeup artist?
Professional make-up artist is a person professionally trained in this profession, which has a certificate or proof of successful mas- makeup techniques. For you to be sure that you get professional service, and professional make-up, it is necessary to pay attention to the following items:
Hygiene! Professional makeup artist must his accessories, as well as products,maintain clean and tidy.
To have good knowledge of the makeup and accessories for work.
That through appropriate makeup techniques bring your face to perfection, that is, to fulfill your expectations.
Patience. Your professional make-up artist must have the patience for you.
Steps in the professional makeup
I Preparation of skin for makeup
1. Cleaning the face
If a person has old makeup on her face, it is necessary to remove makeup with appropriate remover (depending on whether it is waterproof makeup or not). If the person has no makeup, it is enough to cleanse the skin with micellar water. In both cases, after cleaning, apply a tonic.
2. Hydration
If the skin is extremely dry, it is necessary to do hydration and apply the appropriate cream.
3. Base / Primer
Application of base / primer is a very important step in makeup. First, because it represents a "protective" layer between the skin and the substrate (powders),and second, there are various types of base / primer which make makeup to last longer and prevents undesirable effects such as sifting of some parts of the face, drying ... So there are different types of base / primer such as more neutral (scheduled for normal skin), then for oily skin, dry, for makeup contacted exclusively for photographing ...
II Correction of the skin
1. Identify the basic skin tone
This will help in the selection of shades of liquid foundation (which is preselected based on the type of skin - normal, combination, oily, dry). There are various types of brushes for applying liquid foundation like so-called "skunk" brushes, which is made from a combination of natural and synthetic hair, then flat, synthetic brush, with dense synthetic hair. In addition to brushes, for application of liquid powders can be also used and Beauty Blender, IE, spongy "egg".
2. Application of concealer
After selecting the appropriate shades of concealer, a synthetic brush is used to apply concealer on dark circles and imperfections on the face (of course, if there is need for that).
3. Matting / Fixing the substrate (liquid foundation, concealer)
For this purpose, make-up artists generally use transparent pressed powder or loose powder, for reasons that they can adapt to each face color. This type of powder is applied with a brush with natural hair, to stop the product to fall down from brush until it reaches the face (which happens when using brushes from synthetic hair). Use your fingers to check whether the face is enough matted. Part below the eye can be matted with a smaller brush, but previously with finger remove excess concealer.
III Shaping the face
1. Measuring facial proportions, shading slightly with pressed powder that is slightly darker than the liquid foundation.Shade the line below the cheekbone to the ear.
2. Highlighter - this product emphasizes the top of the cheekbone, it is applied over the above mentioned shaded part of the face.
3. Blush- apply in a circular motion, with the appropriate brush.
3. Blush- apply in a circular motion, with the appropriate brush.
IV Eyebrow correction
Depending on the needs and desires of the client, can be performed correction of eyebrows, for which can be used products such as eyebrow shadows, pens, cream products intended for this purpose and appropriate accessories like brushes. If there is a correction of eyebrows, it is first necessary to correct, precisely to give shape to the eyebrows, then to fill them.
V Shaping and makeup of the eyes
It is very important to pay attention, before the start of makeup, to the shape of the eyes.
For example: Sad eyes - Ensure that the shadows do not descend to the bottom, that eyes would look even sadder.
When doing make-up of the eyes, can be used a variety of techniques of professional make-up techniques such as eye pencils, then gel eyeliner technique...
VI Lips
With skillful makeup can easily be corrected lips if there is a need for it. With a variety of tricks, using 3D techniques, makeup artist can increase or decrease your lips. Lip pencils, play a particularly important role in shaping the lips. They provide the "basic" framework, hold liquid lipstick that does not spread and does not slip from your lips, prolong the service life of lipstick.
In the end, it is necessary to fix the makeup, although this is not mandatory. If there is a need for fixing makeup, there are spray fixators, which are very convenient to use and very effective

Join Me & Kevin Harrington in
Los Angeles, California for This Private,
Exclusive Intensive Training!
Los Angeles, California for This Private,
Exclusive Intensive Training!
This is going to be fantastic! Forbes Riley (The Queen of Selling on TV - $2 Billion) & Kevin Harrington (Original Shark on ABCs "Shark Tank" & Inventor of the Infomercial - Sold $4 Billion).
January 18-19, 2017 in Los Angeles, CA
Pitch Secrets Mastery Countdown:
NOTE: This is a ONE-TIME Training as we do not have plans on repeating it!
Let me tell you how this training came about…&…how two of "The World's Greatest Pitch People" agreed to teach ONLY my students their closely guarded "pitch secrets!"
Two of "The World's Greatest Pitch People"…Forbes Riles & Kevin Harrington…(see their AMAZING bios) were guest speakers at James Malinchak's Big Money Speaker Boot Camp.
As we were having dinner the night before they presented and discussing the importance of really knowing "how to pitch" and how few people really understand it, learn it and can effectively do it, I came up with an idea that I thought would really impact my boot camp students (you).
What if there were an intensive training that stripped away all of the BS that is out there and REALLY taught people the psychology behind "how to pitch?!?"
So I asked Forbes and Kevin:
"Would you be interested in teaching my students in an in-depth 3-day intensive ALL you know about creating and delivering pitches for successfully pitching yourself, products and services (without coming across "salesy") that motivate and empower people to BUY?"
Surprising, they both said:
"James, you have been so helpful to us and such a great friend that, for you, the answer is YES! But ONLY for you because we really don't ever teach this stuff unless we're being paid $25,000 - $50,000 PER DAY!!!"
WOW! I was so honored with their response and that they agreed to do this for my students as a favor to me!
So the next day at the boot camp, after Forbes & Kevin presented their 60-minute presentation, I made the offer for the 3-day training that the 3 of us agreed (at dinner the night before) to teach!
And WOW!.....In 2:37 (that's 2 minutes & 37 seconds), the entire 50 Seats were SOLD OUT at $1,997 each!…..That's right!.....It SOLD-OUT in under 3 min!!!
Needless-to-say, Kevin and Forbes were BLOWN-AWAY at my ability to "pitch" because there was no time to practice because WE ONLY DECIDED TO DO IT THE NIGHT BEFORE! But, I KNOW HOW TO PITCH! (FYI – Kevin actually told me that in viewing 50,000+ pitches that my pitch was the greatest he has ever seen! WOW! I was honored!)
So, what does this have to do with you? As mentioned above, we are offering you to claim one of the few spots left to attend this awesome event, they will be filled on a first-come, first-serve basis.
This is your chance to be included!
SERIOUSLY…and I mean this…DO NOT MISS this rare opportunity to learn from Kevin, Forbes and myself!
Hope to see you there!
