11/8/11 10:37 diane:
I won one of these on their facebook by posting a pic of my doggie in his costume! I think they are sending me the nice palette. Colors look great I can't wait to get it. Let me know if u want me to swatch it for ya =)
11/8/11 12:40 diane:
As soon as it arrives it will be swatched for you! =)
11/8/11 10:43 Nicole R.:
just ordered the nude palette, can't wait for it to arrive! Thanks Muse for the heads up!!!
11/8/11 10:44 Cosmetics Aficionado:
I would love to see the nude palette in person. I have the Urban Decay version, but it is so shimmery. Maybe this would be a good alternative to those who want less shimmer.
11/8/11 11:06 Laci:
I want the Nude palette. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that I can find it at TJ Maxx. 😀
11/8/11 11:44 Missy:
Yay! Just ordered the Nice version
11/8/11 11:44 kimkats:
Must….have….the… .palette…. LOVE nude palettes…
11/8/11 11:56 Sara:
My local sephora just stopped stocking theBalm, which sucks ass as I recently discovered I like them. Really interested in the lipsticks, and while the palette is pretty, I swear the boy will take me out back and shoot me if I come home with any more eyeshadows or lip glosses. *lol* He already (probably rightly) thinks I have a makeup addiction….no need to fuel the fire.
I can't wait to see your swatches of the palette though. A gal can look. 😉
I want! Though I have a gazillion nude, neutral, naked shades….so what's another palette, eh? 😉 God knows us makeup junkies are VEEERY GOOD at telling apart nuances in colour.
I wonder how this one compares to the UD Naked palette, and the Sleek Au Naturel one…
11/8/11 12:26 kimkats:
M – I like your reasoning!! I need to get better at discerning the nuances in colors… Yeah, yeah… that's it! That's why I need i! 😀
11/8/11 16:13 Jenn:
Temptalia just posted swatches and said she thinks this palette and Naked don't really compare. So buy away. haha.
11/8/11 12:34 Laura:
I too, am stalking my TJ Maxx
11/8/11 14:41 Erin:
Just ordered the Naughty palette! I own every other TheBalm e/s palette, and they're well worth it!
11/8/11 17:57 Jane:
I half want to buy the nice just to move companies away from their super "sexy" turn. I don't like rubbing G-spot all over my face and want companies to quit that direction. Although these lipsticks and "naughty" palette are cute, not offensive.
11/8/11 19:18 Shari:
Just ordered mine…naughty version! Can't wait to try it!!!

The Master of Arts (MA) with a concentration in Composition and Rhetoric combines intensive study of current theory and practice within the discipline with carefully supervised training in the teaching of writing. Small classes with some of the most distinguished teacher-scholars in the field enable students to build individual research agendas shaped in relation to faculty expertise.
To earn the degree, students must complete at least 16 hours of coursework in Composition and Rhetoric, including a three-week summer seminar in the theory and practice of teaching composition. Over the course of four semesters, students choose their Composition and Rhetoric electives from offerings that represent a range of emphases within our program.
All students admitted to the MA program in Composition and Rhetoric hold Graduate Assistantships that permit them to teach two sections of first-year composition in the College Composition program during their first year in the program, and three during the second. During their first year, students also enroll in a full-year workshop that supports their classroom teaching and a two-credit introduction to issues of the profession required of new MA and PhD students in all degree programs.

What's the perfect reward for having a career full of boundary-shattering achievements? A reality show, of course! And that's exactly what Beverly Johnson, who in August 1974 was the first black model to appear on the cover of Vogue, is getting at the end of next month.
Starting March 31, Johnson will star in the new show Beverly's Full House on OWN, the Oprah Winfrey Network. The show features her opening up her home to her daughter Anansa, son-in-law David and granddaughter Ava in what we think will be some kind of examination of the American family dynamic during a recession. Or something. From the show's description:
Despite sometimes overstepping her boundaries and at times having her intentions misunderstood, she loves her family and is determined to right past wrongs. Along the way, viewers will witness the drama, good times and bad times as Beverly's traditional/non-traditional family comes together, bound by love, and learns to make it all work.
See, you guys? A life spent in fashion really can prepare you to raise a family. There is hope for us yet! Check out the trailer for the show below and tell us what you think.

Water in biology and ecosystems
All living things, humans, plants and animals, depend on water to sustain life. Water has a number of critical biological and ecosystem functions.
This key concept investigates the many functions of water in biology from cells to ecosystems including:
- Plant and animal uptake of nutrients and minerals in water
- Water to assist in regulating earth temperature
- Water to help with biological transport functions
- Presence of water as a large part of the make-up of cells and total mass of animals
- Chemical and physical properties of water
- Water as a habitat for both fresh and salt water plants and animals
- Adaption of plants and animals to the availability of water in the environment, for example the ability of camels and baobab trees to store water for dry periods.

Of the many different ideas implied by the phrase "New World Order," a central theme is the paradoxical breaking down of individual political and economic barriers, on the one hand, and the formation of "blocks" of several independent nations on the other. In Europe this paradox is particularly visible since the media focuses much of its attention on both the internal implications of European unification as well as on Unified Europe's relationships with the other major economic markets of North America and Asia. While these issues have been mostly and correctly discussed in political and economic terms, they nevertheless have implications for the design professions, which have traditionally been assigned the task of place-making but which are increasingly becoming internationally exported services. Where, in the paradoxical terrain of the "New World Order," will architecture find a place and what kind of place will it be?
Tearing down "curtains" and diminishing the importance of borders results in increased movement of people, goods and services, education, and media. The mobility of all these phenomena will certainly change our understanding of culture as place-specific and will force architecture to direct its attention toward giving shape to an increasingly kinetic society. As difficult as this challenge may be, even more problematic is the question of what kinds of issues will replace place-specificity as a basic determinant of design. As borders between countries disintegrate economically and politically, many fear that cultural expression will be determined by economic and political strength. Will Unified Europe's cultural landscape be mapped by a kind of primitive accounting system, where the culture of the less powerful countries, such as Denmark, are simply overshadowed by the cultures of economically strong countries, such as Germany?
Since the unification of Europe is inevitable, it is imperative to answer these questions, and in attempting to do so one finds both pitfalls and possibilities. It is possible that the elimination of factors rooted in traditional ideas of place will free design from the burden of representing such ideas and enable designers to find inspiration in the new transience of people and things. By turning away from the appurtenances of representation, architecture may enable other less recognized and potentially less adulterated aspects of culture to emerge. At the same time, nostalgia for conventional ideas of cultural identity may reinforce the desire to represent historical traditions. One result of such desire could be the "theme-ing" of political identity and the transformation of the whole of Europe into a kind of EuroDisney with cultural distinctiveness simply a series of fantastic themes. Yet another possibility might be that architects will respond to the influx of cross-border integration by designing universal places for universal people using universal goods. Such a response may certainly facilitate social mobility, but it could also produce cultural liquefication and a oneworld, "place-less" architecture.
If the emergence of a "New World Order" is to be stopped from leading inevitably to either an architecture of universal sameness or an architecture of nationalistic kitsch, and if the designer is to be stopped from feeling overwhelmed by and powerless in the face of such global trends, two things must be kept in mind. First, it must be recognized that political and economic factors are indeed the principal mechanisms generating these transformations and design must confront rather than shy away from that fact. One might think of the film Brazil in which the scale and spaces of architecture were used to suggest both the futility of individual endeavors within the system as well as to prove the inescapable power of the bureaucratic machine that drove the system. But the relationship between individuals and the systems to which they belong is no longer so black and white. On a political level, individual nation-hood is certainly being de-emphasized, but identification with newly forming "blocks" is increasing. Perhaps this developing complexity in relationships between individuals and nations and between nations and "New Worlds" can suggest some avenues that might lead architecture away from simplistic economic and political determinism.
A second question that could be raised in this context is whether or not it is useful to continue thinking about architecture in terms of being "placeless" or "place-full." Place, whether absent or present, is not conceived of universally in the same terms. For example, if one asks an American where they come from, there is often a slight pause before they answer as they choose which "place" to call home. On the other hand, if one asks a European where they come from, their answer will usually be as specific as a certain neighborhood or even street in a specified city or town. The differences between these answers may not only be explained by referring to the greater transience of American life in contrast to the greater power of collective memory in Europe. Instead, they can also be understood by thinking about the concept of "place" as a potentially enormously elastic notion, the very flexibility of which could be of tremendous significance to architecture.
While political and economic goals are the star actors in the "New World Order," the design profession nevertheless has an important role to play. As architects from all over the world build increasingly all over the world, they have the unique opportunity not just to be emissaries of culture as traditionally defined, but the designers and definers of new forms of culture. By considering these issues, they may find ways of satisfying Renzo Piano's credo-"architecture is art realized by life "-rather than succumbing to an architecture that is non-art realized by economics.

International Roma Day 2012
Ambassador Norman L. Eisen,
April 5, 2012
April 8 is International Roma Day and I, along with U.S. Ambassadors and officials around the world, offer my best wishes to all members of the Roma community. The cultural and historic ties of the Roma community in the Czech Republic are deep and long-standing. Yet, Roma citizens continue to face a myriad of challenges in their home country. Czechs of Roma ethnicity have every right to demand equal access to education and employment opportunities; safety and security for themselves and their families; safe, affordable housing; and an end to discrimination. But, to reach these goals, government, civil society, and the Roma community itself must be willing to cooperate.
Earlier this year, Secretary Clinton met with young Roma activists in Sofia, where she stated that, "helping to promote and protect the inalienable human rights of Roma everywhere is a long-standing personal commitment of mine, and it is a stated foreign policy priority of this Administration." The level of this commitment was reflected in the decision for the U.S. to join the Decade of Roma Inclusion as an official observer. As always, the U.S. is willing to share our own experiences with diversity and inclusion. The struggle is often long, but worth the effort.
At the heart of the American experience is a history of diversity that embraces the many cultures that created our country. We value the rich ethnic, religious, and cultural traditions of our citizens and strive to recognize the importance of each. In honor of this year's International Roma Day, I encourage Czechs of all backgrounds to take a moment to remember the important role of diversity in Czech society and to fight for equal rights for all citizens.
International Roma Day
- International Roma Day was officially declared in 1990 in Poland, during the fourth World Romani Congress in honour of the first major international meeting of Roma representatives, 7-12 of April, 1971 in London, UK. International Roma Day is a day to celebrate Romani culture and raise awareness of the issues facing Romani people. European Roma Rights Center

Glovers still have everything to play for, insists upbeat manager Johnson
Posted: March 27, 2014|
"It's all to play for" was the defiant message from Yeovil Town as Gary Johnson's men remained in the hunt for Sky Bet Championship survival despite letting slip a winning position for a third match in succession.
Kasper Schmeichel helped break travelling hearts at the King Power Stadium on Tuesday night when the goalkeeper claimed Leicester City's 92nd minute equaliser.
The Glovers were leading 1-0 when Schmeichel came up for a stoppage-time corner and remaining forward when it was only half-cleared.
The Dane headed the right-wing cross against the bar before the ball bounced down and was forced in for sure by Foxes striker Chris Wood.
New Zealander Wood was credited with the goal at the time – but replays suggest that Schmeichel's header may have already crossed the line.
However, the Football League yesterday moved to settle the matter, officially awarding the goal to Wood.
The result came just three days after the Glovers had led 2-0 against Bolton Wanderers only to draw 2-2 and a week on from the 3-3 scoreline at Wigan Athletic, when the visitors led 2-1 at one point.
Although only able to take three points from as many games – taking their tally of points dropped from winning positions to 29 for the season – Yeovil are just one victory from catching fourth-from-bottom Charlton Athletic.
Fellow strugglers Barnsley head to Huish Park on Saturday with the bottom three teams locked on 32 points, Yeovil topping the pile on goal difference.
With plenty of action yet to come this season, Glovers manager Johnson warned the Addicks his team were snapping at their heels.
"There are eight games to go and everything still to play for," he said. "There are some games that some are going to win. We're all on the same points and Charlton haven't pulled away. We've got to play them and they've got some difficult games to play as well.
"It just shows you how you've got to have the momentum going into the last few games of the season, that's really important.
"You've got to have a game where the lads are giving everything, and that's what they're doing. If you take winning and losing out of the equation you've got to make sure you're giving your best and that's what the boys did at Leicester."
Schmeichel's effort prompted immediate comparisons to his father, former Manchester United favourite Peter, who netted nine times in a career that spanned 22 years.
Johnson joked that the stopper was the only opponent they had not flagged up when preparing for set-pieces in the build-up to the match.
He said: "Quality players put in quality balls and he showed the desire to get on the end of it. Of course we didn't put on the sheet in the dressing room who was picking up Kasper Schmeichel, so it's just down to the boys to be aware he's there. Let's not take anything away from them doing the club proud, because that is what they did. We cannot let it affect us in the next few games. How many people would have taken us to get a 1-1 at Leicester?"

A week ago, just after Kendrick Lamar smashed open everyone's perception of him with his acerbic verse on Big Sean's "Control," we told you three undeniable truths about the move. The third and final truth notes that Kendrick breathed life into several rappers' careers, and in the infographic below we expand on this hypothesis with actual numbers–which rapper benefited the most as far as social following?
SPOILER! It's Jay Electronica. Actually being on the track itself probably didn't hurt Jay's case. What's disappointing to us is that Jay still doesn't have an actual project out. What good is a 10,000,000,000% increase in twitter followers if you got nothing to sell them?
No matter what though, the eternal winner in this scenario is our man Kendrick, a close Karmaloop compadre ever since he rocked the Verge Campus Tour. Check out Selkoe's interview with him below.


text: Action needed on MCAS reform bill The Massachusetts Legislature's Education Committee will take up MCAS bills Tuesday, January 8, at 1 p.m. in Room A-1, according to Citizens for Public Schools. A number of MCAS bills were heard by the Committee on June 5, 2007, including H. 561, Rep. Carl Sciortino and Sen. Pam Resor's bill to reform MCAS. CPS understands that the Education Committee chairs, Rep. Pat Haddad (D-Somerset) and Sen. Bob Antonioni (D-Leominster), will be recommending that H561 be sent to "Committee Study." That would effectively kill the bill and send the message that the Education Committee is not interested in discussing this important issue. It is crucial that calls be made to Rep. Haddad's office asking for her support of H561 and, if she is not ready to support the bill, that she recommend the bill not be voted on now, but be held until the committee can discuss it fully. Contact Rep. Haddad at 617-722-2070 before the 1 p.m. hearing and ask her to support H561, the MCAS reform bill. About the bill An Act to Enhance the Massachusetts Comprehensive Assessment System to Ensure that all High School Graduates meet the State's Standards (The MCAS Reform Bill - H561) Lead Sponsors: Representative Carl Sciortino and Senator Pam ResorCo-Sponsors: Rep. Frank Smizik, Rep. Alice Wolf, Rep. Tom Sannicandro, Senator Pat Jehlen, Senator Cindy Creem, Rep. Denise Provost, Rep. Ben Swan, Rep. Doug Petersen, Rep. David Linsky, Rep. Sarah Peake, Senator Steve Tolman, Rep. Ruth Balser, Rep. Mike Rush, Rep. Matt Patrick, Rep. Willie Mae Allen, Rep. Steve D'Amico, Senator Harriette Chandler, Senator Dianne Wilkerson, Rep. Kay Khan, Rep. Liz Malia, Rep. John Keenan, Rep. Pam Richardson, Rep. Tom Calter, Rep. Tom Conroy, Rep. Kathi Reinstein, Rep. Alice Peisch, Rep. Christine Canavan, Rep. Paul Kujawski Introduction: The 1993 Education Reform Act called for a system of multiple assessments to determine whether or not a high school student had reached a sufficient level of competence to earn a diploma and graduate. However, when the Board of Education began to implement the new standards, it developed MCAS instead: a single set of high-stakes tests requiring a minimum passing score for students to graduate from high school. While the MCAS has been an important evaluation tool and a key part of broader efforts to invest in and improve our public schools, the use of the standardized tests as a must-pass graduation requirement has contributed to unintended consequences, including: Increased drop-out rate and lower graduation rate Narrowing of curricula and "teaching to the test" Inflated scores that don't reflect real learning Extreme pressure on students to perform on high-stakes exams Decreased motivation to learn Diversion of school resources away from non-tested subjects/activities Ignoring important student strengths that standardized tests do not measure: creativity, problem solving, critical thinking and diligence What This Bill Does: 1. Directs the board of education to create a High School Graduation Requirements Committee which will be given the responsibility of developing a multiple assessment system to determine student competence. The committee will consist of 31 members appointed by organizations representing a wide spectrum of affected parties and educational authorities. 2. Ensures that multiple formats and measures be used to gauge competence, and provides for students who do not meet minimum standardized test scores the opportunity to offset their scores with other measures of performance. 3. Provides that, until the committee develops and implements the new graduation requirements, no student shall be denied a diploma for failing to obtain a passing score on the MCAS.

After ALL charges (incl delivery), 750 Liras costs you the following in pounds:
Last updated: 1 hr ago - Cards: 1 hr ago
You get the BEST rates, every time, in every country. Most debit and credit cards add a 3% load, so spend £100 of euros and it costs £103. Yet specialist cards are 'load-free' worldwide, meaning £100 costs £100 in every currency. As there are no charges, they smash owt else, including top bureaux de change.
Always repay IN FULL so there's no interest. To make this work, set up a direct debit to pay in full, or the interest cost dwarfs any gain you get from the better rate.
There are fees for cash withdrawals, but it's still cheap. Even if you do fully repay, there are cash withdrawal charges. Yet generally even with this (as long as you make bigger withdrawals) they still beat bureaux de change.
Find out if you're likely to be accepted. You need to pass a credit check to get one of these cards. To find out which you're most likely to get without the application leaving a footprint on your credit file, use our Overseas Cards Eligibility Checker.
They take up to two weeks to arrive, so if you're too late, get one for next time. These cards have to be sent to you and activated, so they're no good if you're going soon, but once you've got one you don't need to worry about cheap currency again.

For a full comparison, tips for using them well & charges breakdown see Travel Money (APR Examples).
If you fail to repay in full, the representative APRs are 11.9% to 16.9%
Q. Is it easy to get accepted for these cards? That depends on your credit score. Use our Eligibility Checker to find with which you've the best acceptance odds.
Q. Is there time to get one? They can take 1 ‐ 3 weeks to get, though usually come quite quickly, so factor that into your decision (and even if it's too late, it's worth considering getting one now for next time)
Q. What about debit or prepaid cards? There are two load-free debit cards for spending abroad, though that means changing bank accounts. Alternatively if your credit score isn't up to a credit card (or you don't trust yourself), check out the top prepaid cards overseas though here you get the rate on the day you buy the currency, not when you spend it.
It's not easy to get up-to-date rates for rocking up to the airport and changing your cash there and then. So we've done some research and worked out the average rate mark-ups - in other words, how much worse the rate is likely to be if you get your money this way, including estimated commission charges.
We called every airport bureau to get its rates for the most popular currencies on a particular day. These were euros, US dollars, Canadian dollars, Australian dollars and Turkish lira. We then compared them with each bureau's online rate on the same day.
So to estimate today's airport walk-in rate, we've assumed the percentage difference between the airport rates and online rates always remain about the same, and applied that to today's exchange rates.
It's only an indication. But it does show that if you're going to leave it till the last minute, ALWAYS order online. Or better still, plan ahead and go for the top bureaux rates.
Updated 01-January-1970
The amount of time you have between now and when you go abroad changes the options we can give you for the cheapest way to get holiday money.
The top specialist credit cards thrash bureaux de change on price, but you need to allow 1-3 weeks to get one, so they're no good for anyone travelling in the next week.
You're a captive customer at an airport or ferry terminal, so you'll probably be lumbered with the worst rates possible.
If you must get it from the airport, pre-order for pick-up to get a better rate (usually possible until four hours beforehand). Use the search on the left, selecting 'Airport pickup', and this will list the providers that allow you to do this.
We just wanted to ensure you were aware of the impact of what you're doing before buying this far ahead.
You are currency speculating. By buying at today's rates for a decent time ahead, you are in effect taking a gamble on currency rate moves. In other words if the pound gets weaker you would gain by buying now, if it gets stronger you lose.
Beware letting the bureaux hold your money. When buying this far ahead of a trip, always check whether the bureaux de change is going to send you the cash straight away. If it isn't you are taking a risk.
There is very little protection with bureaux de change transactions. For example if it went bust while it was holding your money, you are unlikely to get that cash back - so the longer it's holding your money for, the bigger the risk. Find out more about bureaux de change protectionDon't show this again
We provide the information below if you choose to continue, for the sake of rate comparison only...Continue
Some smaller travel money delivery firms ask you to pay by cash, cheque or bank transfer rather than using a card for payment. Before you do this it's important to remember these companies don't have any form of compensation scheme. So if one of them goes bust with your cash, you're on your own.
Yet when you make a payment by debit or credit card, you have more chance of getting your money back if the company you're paying goes bust, than just sending them the cash. Also, it's likely the currency provider will have your dough for a shorter period, decreasing any risk.
While this is untested for travel money transactions, it at least means you have a potential secondary route (your card provider) to getting your money back. These rules apply.
For further information on these protections, and their limitations, plus how to make a claim through them, read the full Visa Chargeback & Section 75 guide.
If you use a bureau de change to exchange cash, and it goes bust while it has your money, you have no protection. This is why we warn against using these firms to buy money a long time in advance. This even means there's a slight risk in using delivery options - handing over your pile of cash in return for theirs is the safest route.
There are a couple of different levels of regulation for bureaux, but the golden rule is:
If ANY bureau goes bust when it has your money, you're NOT protected.
Don't let it hold your cash for any longer than needed.
Usually this isn't a problem, but on rare occasions it can be and there's little recourse. For this reason, we reiterate this is a 'travel money' tool for small holiday transactions. It's not a tool for sending large amounts abroad (eg, for buying a house) ‐ see Sending Money Overseas for that.
Bureaux de change don't have to be authorised by the regulator, the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), because they are not viewed as providing a payment service - instead the business is simply seen as selling you goods (foreign cash) in the same way corner shops sell tins of baked beans (we've lobbied for this to be changed).
Most of the bureaux listed in the travel money tool are FCA authorised - but some are not. We explain what this means for you below.
What advantages does FCA authorisation give?
If a bureau is FCA authorised, it means it has to meet certain requirements and provide the FCA with information so that the FCA can monitor the business. The FCA also have the power to fine these firms if they fail to meet the FCA's requirements. FCA authorised firms must also provide all customers with specific details about transactions, applicable charges and how to complain - find out more.
Banks, building societies, the Post Office, and certain other public bodies can operate in this market without explicit authorisation, as the FCA already supervises them more closely for other aspects of their business. Indeed, these big trusted brands are probably a less risky option than a smaller bureau de change.
What about the other types of regulation for a bureau?
Some bureaux aren't FCA authorised but they are FCA registered. That means they don't have to provide as much information to the FCA - so the FCA has less control and can't monitor the firm as closely.
But, either way both registered and authorised bureaux must follow certain FCA rules such as how they provide services to their customers and having a formal complaints procedure.
Should I only use FCA-authorised bureaux then?
We're not saying you shouldn't use bureaux that aren't FCA authorised. If you're just using the bureau to exchange a small amount of cash for your holiday relatively quickly, you should be fine. Remember, even if an FCA-authorised bureau went bust your money is still not protected.
Which companies are included in this tool?
We spend a lot of time researching and deciding the bureaux that should go in the travel money tool. As we've explained, some bureaux are FCA authorised - some are not - and some are FCA registered.
All the bureaux are registered with HM Revenue & Customs under the Money Laundering Regulations. This means that bureaux must have certain controls to prevent them being used for money laundering by criminals and terrorists. For full details, read - HMRC's guide.
Though again, we stress, that still doesn't mean you have any protection from them going bust and we don't check for firms' solvency when we include them in results, it's just an automated list.
Where credit cards or loans use a representative APR, this means that 51% of successful applicants will be given the stated interest rate.
With credit cards, the rate for purchases (as opposed to balance transfers or cash withdrawals) is used as the main rate to advertise the card.
So if that is described as 19.9% representative APR, then 51% of people accepted will get 19.9% APR, but 49% will get a different rate (likely to be higher).
Loans are slightly simpler as they only have one rate. So if a loan is advertised as being 7.5% representative APR, this means 51% of accepted applicants will get 7.5%, and 49% will get a different rate (likely to be higher).
Of course, some people will be rejected outright for the card or loan too.

I'll miss you calling out to me 'Hey Bella!' I'll miss sharing ice cream with you in the summer and coffee with you in the Winter...exchanging stories and admiring your spirit. You came such a long way, you made me stop and think about my own life many times and you've inspired me to put aside my grumbles and focus on today. You've had more courage than most people I've met. Takes a very special kind of courage to stand up, take responsibility for yourself and turn your life around like you did. You also struggled with dependency, your determination taking you strides and bounds ahead, leaving drugs and alcohol clear behind you. Yet you never spoke much of it, you only ever had a smile and a cheery word. The people who supported you with their generosity and hope and belief in you - they inspire me also.
Vale old Brown Shoes. I will never forget you.

Hi there. Here is my honest opinion. Your guy's profile is fine but a little sparse if you are attempting to attract a unicorn. The single ladies here are far and few between and honestly can write their own ticket. Many are also free members and are deluged with requests so you need to find a way to stand out. If you want to get noticed I would suggest posting some more alluring photos and flesh out your profile a bit more so any potential lady can get a better feel for you both. Best of luck to you but you may need to learn a lot about patience as this might take a while to find what you are looking for. Perhaps you could go to a house party in your area as you might get a faster turnaround that way. Hope this has helped and again best of luck to you in your search.

In 1979, Pennsylvania Judges sent the first PA youth to Arizona to join the VisionQuest Wagon Train. VisionQuest then made its way to Pennsylvania from Arizona in 1980 when PA boys and girls traveled over 2,000 miles on the Wagon Train. That same year, VisionQuest opened its first Pennsylvania residential program in Franklin and its first community-based HomeQuest program in Erie.

text: Terry O'Neill, a British photographer, is renowned for his images of stars such as Audrey Hepburn and Frank Sinatra. His work, recognisable for its candid informality, has appeared in magazines such as Life, Vogue, and Rolling Stone, and his access to high-profile subjects led him to become one of the most published photographers of the 1960s and '70s. Now 71, O'Neill made his name when London was a swinging, creative and altogether chummier place. Evenings at Soho's Ad Lib Club, a popular haunt for actors, models, musicians and photographers, brought him close to his subjects, and he became friends with the likes of Richard Burton, Michael Caine and David Bowie. His photographs reveal the conflicts, contradictions, desires and dreams that lurked beneath groomed surfaces. He amassed a vast collection of negatives over the years, but as with many photographers of the time, archiving and cataloguing went by the wayside. Thanks to Getty Images, O'Neill's archive has been properly assessed, and over 40 previously unseen photographs have just gone on show at the Chris Beetles gallery in central London. They are a revelation. O'Neill has an eye for the moment when his subjects are comfortable enough to give something away. The relaxed feel of these images is a world away from those we see of celebrities today, either airbrushed to perfection or snapped on the run. A particularly intimate shot features Brigitte Bardot, one of O'Neill's favourite subjects, resting between takes on the set of "The Novices" (pictured top). Napping in an elegant, furry dressing gown, she is joined on the bed by the producer's dog, mouth agape and tongue sprawled. Another notable image is a vintage print of Christopher Lee, Vincent Price, John Carradine and Peter Cushing on the set of "House of the Long Shadows" (pictured above); four crinkly, bright-eyed faces, stacked in two tiers, look intently into O'Neill's lens. Humour bubbles beneath the surface, freezing the mischief of the moment. Of the images on show three are in colour: a harassed Steve McQueen in his Hollywood office, Raquel Welch clad in cheeky cowboy chaps and red bikini bottom, and a magical, glowing picture of Audrey Hepburn in a swimming pool (pictured) taking a break during the filming of "Two for the Road". With her damp, cropped hair falling over her eyes and her dazzling smile, Hepburn is relaxed and radiant. Though frozen in time, the moment feels full. We can practically hear her laughing. "Terry O'Neill: New & Unseen" is at the Chris Beetles gallery, London, until March 6th. ~ HELENA DOUGLAS Picture credit: Copyright Terry O'Neill
