STI The Elektra BLK 6+1 45ACP 3.24"
This Item is Currently Out of Stock
STI The Elektra BLK 6+1 45ACP 3.24"
Factory New
|Bud's Item #
Originally designed both by and for the ladies, the STI Elektra is a compact aluminum framed pistol with everything anyone needs in a backup pistol along with the elegance to carry it with pride.
When STI came up with the Shadow, they received a very positive response but some of the ladies at the factory wanted to do a version with more of a woman�?Ts touch. Their discussions and suggestions led to the creation of the Elektra- a light weight pistol that looks as good as it shoots. The resulting pistols can be carried by anyone with a more discriminating aesthetic.
The classic stainless steel slide is 3.0�?� in length with Sabertooth rear cocking serrations & standard STI oversized ejection port- all Cerakoted with the sides polished, creating a unique two toned finish. The 2 dot tritium night sights have been recessed into the slide and, along with the integral sight channel, provide the perfect compromise between easy sight acquisition and snag free carry.
The STI Elektra is built on a forged aluminum STI officer sized frame with a stippled front strap. The grip includes a flat checkered polymer mainspring housing configured to provide excellent retention. The pearlescent grips add to the distinct appearance of the pistol. The controls are STI�?Ts stainless steel single sided thumb safety and STI�?Ts bobbed, high-rise, knuckle relief beavertail grip safety. The barrel is a 3.0�?� fully supported STI ramped bull barrel. The STI Elektra comes standard with an STI RecoilMaster guide rod system, STI commander hammer, and patented STI International trigger system.

Whether it's to help save the planet or simply ease the strain on your wallet, reducing energy consumption is something every homeowner needs to be thinking about.
Small changes can make a noticeable difference over time and they don't have to cost a fortune to implement in the first place. Architect and television presenter George Clarke is among those calling for homeowners to change their ways for the good of the environment.
Writing in the Daily Telegraph, he says that saving energy has to bring direct benefit to consumers if they are going to embrace it properly. Moreover he makes the point that eco-homes are not exclusively brand new properties packed with the latest (and expensive) green mod cons.
"There is a perception that eco-designed homes are newbuilds, with a lot of hi-tech modern features. But all homes need to become eco-homes if we are to reduce carbon emissions in line with the Kyoto Protocol." Clarke offers a number of practical suggestions for making your home more eco-friendly, including using underfloor heating instead of radiators, insulating lofts and cavity walls, and lowering your thermostat by as little as one degree.
He advises blocking out draughts around doors and windows and using thick curtains in rooms instead of blinds. Interestingly Clarke favours wood framed windows rather than UPVC or metal, which is good news for period home owners with traditional wooden windows already in place.
"They are easier to repair, more insulating, last a lifetime and are less polluting than the cheaper UPVC, from which many domestic window frames are made, which emits toxic compounds," writes Clarke. Another advocate of wood for windows is Sarah Beeny from Channel 4's Property Ladder and Help! My House Is Falling Down.
She also has firsthand experience of using the Ventrolla Perimeter Sealing System (VPSS) on projects as part of the renovation process for old and damaged sash windows.
"Specialist service providers can renovate and upgrade the performance of all sorts of wooden sash and casement windows, often at a fraction of the cost of a full replacement job," says Beeny. "In particular the renovation service employed by Ventrolla works wonders for improving both looks and efficiency.
"People know me for my understanding of the property market and maximising opportunities from refurbishment projects. "One of my golden rules is to respect and preserve period features wherever possible and for that reason I am happy to champion specialists such as Ventrolla who can make this process easier and more achievable for homeowners."

STAGE TUBE: Costa Contemporanea's LA IGNORANCIA Videodance Workshop
As a part of the activities related to Mes de Danza in Seville there will be on 20th November a presentation of Costa Contemporanea. Costa Contemporánea is a Contemporary Dance and Performing Arts Festival held in Natural Park Cabo de Gata, Almeria, Spain.
It is an opportunity to visit top quality workshops about contemporary dance, performing arts and videodance, to attend to national and international well-known performances and enjoy great cultural holidays surrounded by nature and coast.
The presentation will be followed by the screening of a selection of videodances created by Yara Paz, Tristana Castilla, RuBen Hernandez and Gwladys Le Calvez during the videodance workshop held at the festival this year.
The videodance workshop was led by Ana Cembrero (filmmaker and choreographer) and Jorge Piquer (director of photography and filmmaker), directors of La Ignorancia dance film music. They are authors of many successful videofilms, shortfilms and installations. A good example of this is the international award-winning videodance Cinetica filmed in Natural Park Cabo de Gata-Nijar. They both live and work in Brussels.
At Costa Contemporanea 2012 La Ignorancia has led an audiovisual workshop where the participants have discovered and explored their personal creativity and the relationship between dance and film in order to carry out a dance video with the natural settings of the Natural Park and the Mediterranean Coast. For more information, click HERE.

CHICKASHA – Quarterfinals just might not cut it for the Drover men this season. They have another goal in mind: a national title.
CHICKASHA – The Drover men's soccer team is expected to be one of the toughest to beat this season, according to preseason rankings released this week.
The Drover men's soccer team made history in 2010, competing in the NAIA National Championship Quarterfinals and making the university proud. After a 12-hour trip to Brownsville, Texas, and a 14-hour trip to Orange Beach, Ala., the Drovers were ready to battle for USAO. See their story.
CHICKASHA – Drover Head Coach Jimmy Hampton was named the National Soccer Coaches Association and NAIA Southwest Region Coach of the Year for the second year in a row.
CHICKASHA – The soccer men thought their season was over, but then they received word that they would be heading to the NAIA Men's Soccer Championship tournament, which was particularly exciting for seniors like Jack Norman.
CHICKASHA – As post-season soccer wraps up, USAO soccer players have been recognized for both athletic and scholarly abilities.
Three goals ended the Drovers' historical season on Wednesday night as William Jewell defeated USAO 3-1 in the NAIA Men's Soccer Championship.
ORANGE BEACH, ALA. – The Drovers may be in Alabama to play top level soccer, but they found time in between training and competing to give back to the Orange Beach community.
ORANGE BEACH, ALA. – The Drovers continue to make history in Orange Beach, Ala., as they took down another strong competitor in an overtime battle.
ORANGE BEACH, ALA. – A semester of early morning practices and late afternoon drills paid off for the Drovers, as they prepare for a history-making game on Monday.

There's no denying that figuring out how to present your business in the right light is a tricky task! There are so many decisions to make – the choices are practically endless. So when it came to creating our own brand new TV ad, you can imagine the hours we spent exploring a range of creative directions… even on the day of the shoot.
If you've not seen the ad, you can take a peek here.
Design Director, Anup describes the day of the shoot best: "We wanted the advert to have a low-fi feel to it with a muted colour palette and a dry, almost dull office tone that would contrast epically with the fun, irreverent, wonka-esque mood of MOO. The idea is simple, but creating an advert is no easy ride. This was shot over 16 long hours, with 30 people running around, 10 cups of coffee gulped down, paper flying out of chimneys, paint splatted everywhere and a million teeny tiny tweaks that made sure it was just right." It sounds like quite a day!
So without further ado, here's a peek at what went on behind the scenes:
Much to the envy of the rest of the MOO Crew, Simon Cobby – General Manager of MOO for Business – got to go along to the shoot too, adding: "As a creative business it's not unusual to see people running around our offices doing lots of creative stuff. But on set, the running around and on-the-spot creativity was a real sight to behold. Added to the fact that we had real machines with working parts, real ink, real confetti and real treadmills (yes we needed two!) a whole new level of 'creativity' was required – all for our little 30 seconds of film."
It certainly sounds and looks like the team enjoyed a creative (and caffeine) fueled day. To get another behind the scenes glimpse, stay tuned to the blog or sign up to the MOOsLETTER over the next few weeks!

Like many other Southern rappers, T.I. has rarely appeared in New York City. There are several reasons for this. The abundance of live-entertainment-starved second-tier cities across the South gives local rap stars the ability to tour for months without leaving the region. Throw in the looming threat of an NYPD traffic stop—the kind that invariably turns up some form of contraband, usually unregistered weapons, leading to an arrest and a New York Post cover—and you can see why the T.I.'s, Lil Waynes and Young Jeezys of the world usually limit their NYC-area dates to suburban venues like Nassau Coliseum.
Interesting then that T.I., he of the recent machine-gun bust, has now decided to visit Manhattan for the second time in just over two months (a September 30 show coincided with the release of his LP Paper Trail). Could it be a PR scheme intended to suggest that the reformed rapper's done with guns? Or is the cocky ATL MC just asserting his new bona fide pop-star status with some legend-making performances, by any means necessary? Either way, tonight's show should attract a diverse crowd. While the saccharine chart-toppers "Live Your Life" and "Whatever You Like" are his biggest hits to date, Paper Trail connected with hip-hop's hard-core audience thanks to its improved lyrical content. Just don't say we didn't warn you if T.I. is late for, ahem, legal reasons.

E-T Energy Ltd., Calgary, indicated it will refile an application for commercial-scale production of bitumen in Alberta based on a proprietary electrical heating system.
The provincial Energy Resources Conservation Board returned an application filed in July 2009 saying the company hadn't demonstrated that the system, ET-DSP (for electrothermal dynamic stripping process), can obtain or sustain commercial bitumen production rates. The ERCB cited a lack of production data.
E-T said the application didn't include results of a crucial field test that remains in progress. It said the test, which it calls Step 3, won't establish the recovery factor and energy-oil ratio required to produce bitumen until later this year or early next year.
The returned application was for a 10,000 b/d project.
"In light of the recent decision by the ERCB, the timing of the Step 3 results, and weak capital markets, management will be considering other alternatives, including a smaller project building upon the existing Step 3 field test surface assets," E-T said in a statement.
The company holds acreage in the Athabasca oil sands region adjacent to Fort McMurray. The ET-DSP system, based on a grid of production and electrode wells, has been used by the environmental industry for remediation of contaminated sites.
E-T wants to apply the technology to recovery of bitumen from Lower Cretaceous McMurray formation zones too deep to be mined, more than about 75 m, and too shallow to be produced by steam-assisted gravity drainage, less than about 150 m.

The War On Terror And The Bush-Obama Presidency
April 06, 2010
I take it is a relief that, aside from its rhetorical pandering to the civil libertarian absolutists who can't seem to grasp that Muslim terror networks are in a worldwide war with the United States and its remaining allies, the Obama administration is actually extending the life of the Bush presidency in its defense against jihad. Eli Lake, who is among the most discerning journalists on the intelligence beat, has written an analysis in Reason on where—or, rather, how little—the Obami have deviated from Bush guidelines. When it comes to the legal framework for confronting terrorism, President

October 5, 2015
DALLAS (AP) - The Texas Youth Commission is seeking to ensure better care and supervision for mentally ill juvenile offenders it must release under a state law.
An emergency measure adopted by the commission last month requires every offender discharged under the law to receive court-ordered psychiatric treatment. It also states that no such releases can be made without the approval of Executive Director Cherie Townsend.
Agency spokesman Jim Hurley said the commission plans to make the measure permanent.
The 13-year-old law states that the commission must discharge offenders whose mental illnesses can't be treated in custody.
The law generated controversy last year when a 16-year-old boy was accused in the fatal stabbing of a high school teacher in Tyler two months after his release by the commission for mental health reasons.

Keyboard shortcut improvement request
Hi Todoist,
I would like to ask for some enhancement on keyboard shortcuts if it is possible.
- Hotkey to move a task up/down 1 row (Shift or Alt + Up/Down should be cool)
- Jumping between task when there is no task selected. Currently, you must choose one task and press Ctrl + Up/Down in order to jump to the next/previous. Otherwise, when there is no task selected, pressing Ctrl + Up will show "Add Task" field and a blink/highlight on the last task in the list.
If these can be achieved, it would be awesome that user can rearrange a list without touching the mouse.
Please let me know if they already exists or my hotkeys might overridden by other extentions/softwares that might cause not all the hotkeys working for Todoist.
Thank you for an awesome product.
All responses
Hello Chi,
Thank you for your suggestion, we appreciate it. Currently such shortcuts are indeed not available yet, but we will consider adding them in the future and you're welcome to request it in our Votebox: http://todoist.com/Vote/
Best regards,

We can still vividly remember making Mom walk at least 30 feet in front of us on mall outings, but turns out that wasn't the best way to convince her to buy us those silver Baby Spice platforms.
Crazy new research shows that moms are more likely to spend money on their daughters when the daughters act like they actually want to spend time with her, which sounds pretty obvious to those of us out of junior high. But this logic no longer applies only to the obnoxious tween set. Apparently mother-daughter shopping trips between boomer parents and their 20-something offspring are more popular than ever before, as more and more moms seek not only to befriend their daughters, but to steal their jeans.
Michael Kors is just one designer using the expression, "Out in her daughter's clothes" to pump cash back into his yachting budget and thigh-skimming skirts into Mom's wardrobe. Kors is targeting both generations by featuring both cashmere sweaters and studded cross-body bags in the same store. He's found the golden price tag to sit around the $125 mark: a big spend for the daughter and a "fun purchase" for her mom.
"I know mothers and daughters who fight over clothes in a way that only sisters used to," Kors explained to Business of Fashion.
Candace Corlett, president of New York consulting firm WSL Strategic Retail, puts the new trend down to the increasing number of women between 18 and 30 living at home. Women who live together, shop together. She adds, "Fashion rules for older women have relaxed. In decades past, moms didn't wear miniskirts, cropped tees, or even pants."
Do with this information what you will. We take no responsibility for your new zebra-print Michael Kors skinnies getting "lost in the wash."

When new employment statistics are announced, the results often show that young adults are among those who face the toughest challenge in finding jobs. This is a test for our nation's communities, and we have to create avenues of opportunity to help young people start the next phase of their lives.
Fortunately, Rhode Island has leaders such as Gov. Gina Raimondo, Rep. David Cicilline, and Pawtucket Mayor Donald Grebien who are willing to roll up their sleeves and help young people, and recognize that national service is part of the solution.
Our agency, the Corporation for National and Community Service (CNCS), already invests more than $7 million in the Ocean State through our AmeriCorps and Senior Corps programs, which are expanding opportunities in nearly 400 locations.
One of these investments is the groundbreaking Operation AmeriCorps initiative — and it is making Rhode Island a national leader in preparing students for success after high school.
Earlier this year, Pawtucket became the first city in the United States to promise that every high school graduate will have access to opportunities that will help him or her during this transition to post-secondary education and career options.
The "Connecting Futures Operation AmeriCorps" program will play a major role in making this possible in partnership with the Pawtucket School Department and Serve Rhode Island.

Levitra Drug Adverse Effects.Submitted by Nina M. Riccio on January 8, 2013
Professor Lydia Greiner and colleagues recently gave a presentation on their work with students in public health nursing at the annual meeting of the International Association for Service Learning and Community Engagement.
Since 2009, Professor Greiner has been taking 10-12 undergraduate, RN-BSN and second degree students at a time to the Ayapal neighborhood of Managua, Nicaragua, to do health assessments and work on community health projects. Fairfield's partner in this endeavor has been the Universidad Centroamericana (UCA) in Managua, and social work students from UCA work in partnership with Fairfield nursing students.
"When we asked the residents to prioritize their health concerns, it came out that their first concern was for HIV/AIDS education," says Prof. Greiner. "Specifically, they wanted an educational DVD for each family to watch privately. There is too much stigma attached to the disease for them to be comfortable watching a film or hearing a lecture in a community setting." Indeed, an initial assessment showed that significant numbers of residents had misconceptions about the disease and its transmission.
The script, music, and images for the DVD created to meet residents' needs were developed collaboratively by UCA and Fairfield students, with oversight by faculty and community members. Narration was done by an UCA student studying at Fairfield University. In spring 2010, 400 Es Tiempo DVDs were distributed by students to the residents of the neighborhood; a subsequent group of students reassessed knowledge in the community and results indicated a significant increase in knowledge about disease transmission.
Over the course of the project, more than 50 students from UCA and Fairfield participated either directly in Ayapal or indirectly in the production of the DVD. The academic benefits include the recognition of the value of community partners and the assets they bring to any health initiative, the opportunity to link theory to practice, and the chance to work closely in teams of students where nuances of language and culture are continually brokered by bilingual students.

Fathead Makes A Great Gift: Hey you! If you're looking for the right Los Angeles Galaxy gift, Fathead has the perfect wall art present that is better than any old poster or sticker. Our Landon Donovan Fathead Wall Decal is perfect for a birthday, graduation, holidays or just because. This gift is one that any Los Angeles Galaxy fan will always remember.
Player Name: Landon Donovan
Team: Los Angeles Galaxy
Position(s): Striker, Winger
Born: March 4, 1982 in Ontario, Canada
First Team: Bayer Leverkusen
Turned Pro: 1999
Awards / Notes: All-time leading scorer for the USA National Men's Soccer team, 6x Honda "Player of the Year" (2002-2004, 2007-2009), 3x MLS Cup champion (2001, 2003, 2005), 6x Los Angeles Galaxy Golden Boot winner (2005-2010), MLS Best XI (2003, 2008, 2009), MLS Goal of the Year (2009), 2009 MLS MVP and 3x U.S. Soccer Athlete of the Year (2003, 2004, 2009).
What Is A Fathead?:
Fathead is Huge! REAL.BIG. Fathead wall decals are life-size action images that you stick on any smooth surface. You can move them and reuse them and they are safe for walls. Fathead wall decals are way better, bigger and tougher than a poster or sticker. Choose from hundreds of licensed sports and entertainment images.
You can also get a custom Fathead! Upload your photos to make your own Fathead using our Fathead customizer. Need decorating ideas? Need to find a unique gift? Need ideas for party decorating? Need to decorate a den, office, kid's room? Fathead has you covered! Great for party planners, wedding planners, interior designers, decorators, sports enthusiasts, and fans of all ages! A fathead can transform an entire room in a fraction of the time, and cost of painting or wallpapering.
What It's Made Of: This REAL.BIG. Fathead Wall Graphic is a high definition image made of tough high-grade vinyl that's tear and fade resistant, so you can be assured your eye catching Fathead will stay strong. And if the thought of taking down your Fathead makes you want to cry, don't worry, because it uses a low-tack adhesive that can be moved and reused without any damage to your wall. As if it couldn't get any better, your Fathead comes with free separate smaller images (made of the same stuff) to go with your awesome new wall graphic. You can stick 'em near your REAL.BIG. or use 'em to decorate another space.
Suggested Uses: We know once you've got your brand new, authentic Fathead, you'll be so excited that you'll want to stick it to the first wall you see. But stop for a just a few minutes and make sure you apply it to a clean, smooth, interior surface, because your Fathead loves them and you'll love the way it sticks. We recommend putting it somewhere where everyone can see it since there's no better way to tell everyone you're a fan. Real.Big. Fatheads are perfect for transforming person caves, basements, family rooms, TV rooms, bedrooms, workout rooms, offices or any other interior area with a smooth, clean surface. Need to decorate for a party or get together? Fatheads are the ultimate companion for watching the big game or as decorations for a theme party.
Where Not To Stick It: So we've told you where to put your Fathead but we haven't told you where not to. For those curious folks who may want to try to stick their Real.Big. Fathead in clever places like on the sidewalk or on your Dad's car, you may want to rethink your decorating because to be honest, it won't stick or stay for very long. Fatheads do not like textured or bumpy surfaces. When we say you should put it on an interior surface, we don't recommend putting it in your garage unless you have one of those fancy, finished, heated garages. Fatheads don't like the cold, but who would want to leave their poor Fathead in the cold anyway? Lastly, you don't want your Fathead to stick to itself, let's just put it this way, your Fathead will not let go without a fight. The best way to prevent this is to grab a friend or two and have them help you put up your Fathead. Then you get to show it off that much sooner.

Even 5th Graders Know Mitt Won't Raise Taxes
August 07, 2012
Diana Furchtgott-Roth
The Washington Tax Policy Center, a nongovernmental think tank, released a report last week purporting to show that Mitt Romneys tax plan would result in tax cuts for high income earners but increases for everyone else.
This finding was a distortion, if only for one reason: the Tax Policy Center did not analyze the Romney proposal as such, and more or less said so in the abstract to its paper. The Center imposed on the Romney proposal, the centerpiece of which is a 20 percent reduction in all tax rates, a constraint of its own: that the tax changes be "revenue neutral," that they neither raise nor reduce future revenues.
The Romney proposal contains no estimate of revenue consequences.
Major news organizations reported the Centers August 1 finding, namely that Romneys proposal would lead to tax relief for high-income filers and tax increases for everyone else. That is a conclusion imposed by the Centers own assumption of revenue neutrality.
Did the Tax Policy Center, sponsored by the Brookings Institution and the Urban Institute (both of which are research organizations with a center-left tendency) invite the news media, if implicitly, to misrepresent Romneys proposal?
Donald Marron, director of the Center, told me that he assumed the proposal was revenue neutral because of comments made by Romney in the past, even though he admitted that revenue neutrality is not part of the tax proposal. However, when organizations such as the Congressional Budget Office or the Joint Tax Committee analyze the effects of budget and tax legislation, they use written proposals, not sponsors comments.
Had the Tax Policy Center been more meticulous, they would have offered in its paper, authored by co-director William Gale, Brookings senior fellow Adam Looney, and Brookings research associate Samuel Brown, the brief text of the Romney proposal. It is 110 words and can be found at www.mittromney.com/issues/tax. For readers convenience, I reprint it here:
Individual Taxes
Americas individual tax code applies relatively high marginal tax rates on a narrow tax base. Those high rates discourage work and entrepreneurship, as well as savings and investment. With 54 percent of private sector workers employed outside of corporations, individual rates also define the incentives for job-creating businesses. Lower marginal tax rates secure for all Americans the economic gains from tax reform.
* Make permanent, across-the-board 20 percent cut in marginal rates
* Maintain current tax rates on interest, dividends, and capital gains
* Eliminate taxes for taxpayers with AGI below $200,000 on interest, dividends, and capital gains
* Eliminate the Death Tax
* Repeal the Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT)
Curiously, the report never refers to the details of the Romney tax plan, although it does, in a sentence that inaccurately characterizes the plan, mention it in a footnote.
Most fifth graders could read this plan and see that it never once calls for raising taxes on anyone. Nor does the Romney tax plan call for giving tax cuts to high-income Americans before there are tax cuts for middle- and low-income Americans, as alleged by the Tax Policy Center.
In fact, low-and middle-income earners would get tax cuts that upper-income Americans dont have, such as a zero tax rate on income from dividends and capital gains. (Liberals will object that this is a first step down a slippery slope to exemption from taxes of all income from capital, but that is a topic for another day.)
The Tax Policy Center presents four tables, with many numbers. Not one of the tables is based on the Romney tax plan. The Centers document creates-and predictably knocks over-a straw man in the following way.
First, the Center claims that the tax plan must be "revenue neutral." This is not in the tax plan.
Then, the Center asserts that "the proposed revenue reductions from lower rates must be financed with an equal-value elimination or reduction in available tax preferences" such as "deep reductions" in such tax provisions as "the mortgage interest deduction, the exclusion for employer-provided health insurance, the deduction for charitable contributions, and benefits for low- and middle-income families and children like the EITC and child tax credit."
This is the Centers construct, not Romneys. I regard it as an argument invented to make Romneys tax plan look ridiculous. It is impossible to find these draconian provisions in the Romney plan.
Sloppy analysis and slipshod reporting are not uncommon in Washington. A document from the Tax Policy Center that is off the mark would not matter if no one paid attention to it. But it turns out that a lot of attention has been paid to the Centers review of what it imagines is Romneys tax plan.
President Obama cited the Centers document last week in speeches around the country, claiming that Romney would raise taxes on low-and middle-income Americans. At Rollins College in Florida, a battleground state, he said, "Hes asking you to pay more so that people like him can pay less. So that people like me pay less."
The Tax Policy Center does not make the argument that the Romney plan would increase the deficit. The Center says it cannot calculate the deficit effect because the plan lacks details. Instead, they make a distributional claim that Romneys plan would raise taxes on lower- and middle-income Americans while reducing taxes on higher-income Americans.
That is the class warfare argument so popular among liberals. But that argument is patently false. Making the argument that Romneys tax plan would increase the deficit would draw attention to the high budget deficits in President Obamas tenure, in excess of $1 trillion a year for the past three years.
I have a suggestion for President Obama and for journalists who are looking for informed reviews of Romneys tax policy. Give Romneys 110 words to a fifth-grader. Ask that student whether the proposal would raise taxes or lower taxes. If you can locate a fifth-grader who can find tax increases in those 110 words-congratulations. You just found a future employee of the Tax Policy Center.

Makeup artists are a special breed. They live and die for glamour and work their fingers and brushes to the bone to create flawless faces that defy logic and reality. Whether they're painting faces of top models who stomp down international runways or glamming up their celeb clients for paparazzi pics on Robertson Blvd., makeup artists are the masters behind some of the most beautiful women in the world and without them wielding their beauty brushes, we wouldn't have anyone to covet, envy or obsess over!
Here are my top five Makeup Artists of all time!
Pat McGrath – Creative Couture
She is the go-to girl for all things high fashion and beauty. Known for her stunning work backstage at fashion shows from Paris to New York to Milan, McGrath can go from creating sun-kissed dewy faces for Chloe to avant garde geisha-inspired lips for Dior that scream haute couture. This Northampton born and bred makeup artist is a true innovator in that she doesn't let conventional ideas of makeup and beauty limit her. In 1999 she helped create the Armani Cosmetics line and in 2004 she was named the Beauty Director for Max Factor and Cover Girl cosmetics. She is a makeup legend and a beauty trendsetter with her finger on the pulse of all that's glamorous and beautiful.
Gucci Westman – International Beauty
Whether she's prepping a celeb client for a photo shoot or overseeing the creation of new products for cosmetic powerhouse Revlon, she is one of the top editorial makeup artists in the business. Gucci was born in Southern California and raised in both California and Sweden. Her unique viewpoints and inspirations can be seen in her work. She is known for creating looks that convey sensuality as many of her celeb clients such as Drew Barrymore and Natalie Portman are known for their natural sex appeal. Even though she has toned down much of her editorial work due to the birth of her son, she is still working her beauty magic as the Global Director of Revlon.
Sam Fine – Master Colorist
When it comes to beauty and makeup, women of color have had the unfortunate task of settling for less. Many companies don't make foundation or powder shades that work well for the diverse range of tones which exist in various ethnic communities. That's where Sam Fine steps into the picture. He is a prominent celebrity makeup artist known for his amazing work with such luminous beauties as Iman, Patti Label and Vanessa Williams to name a few. This Chicago native honed his craft behind the cosmetics counter and soon branched out into the world of editorial makeup where he began "beating" the faces of Tyra Banks, Naomi Campbell and Veronica Webb. Sam Fine has given women of color a beautiful new outlook on makeup.
Tom Pecheux – Glamour God
When major fashion houses such as Gucci and Prada need to shoot their ad campaigns, they call on this amazing makeup artist to craft the looks that will grace the faces of the models hawking their high-end wares. Known for his exquisite techniques, Pecheux is one of the most sought after editorial makeup artists in the world. His work has been featured on the covers of several international Vogue magazine covers and he's recently been tapped to be the Creative Director of the worldwide cosmetic giant Estee Lauder. Pecheux's French sensibilities are one of the reason's he is such a gifted artist. The world of beauty owes much to this master makeup artist.
Charlie Green – Nonconformist
The first thing you notice about Charlie Green is her platinum blonde shock locks, bright lips and zany personality. She is the Betsey Johnson of the beauty world with her colorful approach to makeup. This British beauty expert has worked the faces of many of the world's top models and celebs as well as created looks for several ad campaigns for some of the top fashion designers and beauty companies. This fearless artist isn't bound by rules or set notions of beauty and style. She uses her imagination and lets her creativity flow through everything that she does. She's a true trend-setter and an artist that embodies the true beauty of makeup.
Linda Ripoll is a certified beauty addict with an unhealthy obsession for fashion magazines, sushi and shopping. She holds a Bachelors of Arts degree in Sociology from the University of California at Berkeley and a Masters of Fine Arts in Screenwriting from the University of Miami. As a beauty editor for the past twelve years, she has had the pleasure of writing about the beauty business from all angles. She recently launched a beauty blog Counter Culture Beauty which highlights the latest in beauty for today's biracial/multiracial woman. She is also the Beauty Editor for Kouture Magazine, a new high fashion and beauty publication for today's affluent woman of color. Follow her on Twitter here.

Ruby developer
United States - Tests: 7
Ruby has been my main language for a number of years now. I also use Javascript frequently (on the client and server), and Java and Perl when the need arises. I use Ruby on Rails for a number of projects, but a large part of my Ruby work is outside of Rails, as ruby is now my primary language. I have a great deal of SQL experience but have been using noschema databases for most new projects for a couple of years (specifically MongoDB). I have been working in a freelance environment for a number of years, and have a multi-machine linux-based network with constantly running infrastructure suited to tackle any task as it arises. I do a reasonable amount of system administration for my own pleasure or in the cloud for clients, and also run and administer client production deployments myself.

Vikings by position: Christian Ponder entering pivotal 3rd year at QB
Get the 1500 ESPN SportsWire delivered to your inbox daily, and keep up with all the news in Twin Cities Sports
Editor's note: Each day until the NFL Draft begins on Thursday night, Tom Pelissero is breaking down the Minnesota Vikings' roster by position, based on observations of games and practice, tape studies and interviews with NFL coaches and scouts.
Day 4
On the roster (4)
McLeod Bethel-Thompson, Matt Cassel, Christian Ponder, Joe Webb.
Ponder (6-foot-2, 229 pounds) remains the unquestioned starter as he enters his third NFL season -- one that will go a long way towards determining the Vikings' course at the most important position. Resume the late-season ascent that proceeded his triceps injury, and Ponder can solidify general manager Rick Spielman's belief he has the traits to be a franchise quarterback. Succumb to the kind of protracted slump Ponder almost didn't escape in 2012, and coaches may be inclined to take a look at Cassel (6-4, 230), the 30-year-old former Kansas City starter who will make a robust $3.7 million this season even if he doesn't play a snap. Cassel fits coordinator Bill Musgrave's offense better than Webb (6-4, 220), an athletic freak with an erratic arm exacerbated by his discomfort in the scheme. He might end up being showcased to read-option teams in camp, unless the Vikings decide to take one more shot at moving him to receiver in a contract year. Bethel-Thompson (6-4, 230) has exceptional arm strength but has yet to play an NFL snap.
Draft outlook
Webb was drafted as a receiver, so the Vikings technically haven't taken a developmental quarterback in the late rounds since 2008. It seems unlikely that'll change this year, though there's always a chance they identify a project they can't pass up. Some teams don't even take four quarterbacks to camp because there just aren't enough snaps to go around. If the Vikings do add one in the draft or rookie free agency, somebody isn't making it to Mankato.
Last 10 drafts
• 2012: None.
• 2011: Ponder (first, 12th).
• 2010: Webb (sixth, 199th).
• 2009: None.
• 2008: John David Booty (fifth, 137th).
• 2007: Tyler Thigpen (seventh, 217th).
• 2006: Tarvaris Jackson (second, 64th).
• 2005: None.
• 2004: None.
• 2003: None.

High fives

Images remain
as nails driven hard,
the eyes are gouged out
yet images remain,
limp eyelids blink
on hollow sockets,
blood trickles down.
Images nestle
in the raw flesh.
I should have known
that haunting images
floating random
in ether,
shall one day return
and go deeper inside,
as you hammer them
softly in.

Writing about You and the House
I have been writing about speed-writing, and also about writing a lot of crap.
Last week, I gave myself a writing prompt of 5 words: abandoned, nurture, trimming, silently, cupboards, and clocked ten minutes on the countdown timer on my cellphone. Now that I go back to it after a few days, I don't hate it so much, so I thought I will post it here:
They have grown silently around the abandoned house, those creepers, those creatures of nature and of stealth. They have piled in through the broken basement windows, they have grown over the cracks on the steps, they have climbed the steps to the forgotten bedrooms. They will not leave the house well enough alone because man makes homes, but Nature nurtures graves.
The house has stood here silently on the mound under the dripping rain, the blazing sun, and you have seen it change its face. It has grown old with you, like you: you, whose nails need trimming, whose clothes need mending, whose table needs cleaning, whose utensils need washing. And so is the house with its wild lawns, its rusty banisters, cobwebbed chandeliers, broken gates, and nesting sparrows.
You and the house have grown old together, silently and alone, like old friends. Those who left you in hate, left the house at the same time, but you do not wait for them, and the house does not, either. You await death and the house waits for demolition, and meanwhile it is a rambling old place where a boy or two can find adventure, where a homeless man can find shelter from the rain.
But you do not welcome the boy or the homeless man, you wander like a ghost in the house, and keep out the real ghosts who do not want to step into this wanton seclusion, this morbid togetherness. The shadows of the house cling to you when you take out your aged car, it waits patiently for you to return, because it knows you will.
It is alive, dying, and pulling you in with it all the time into its corridors of no sunlight and stale air, into its musty cupboards with doors thrown ajar, its old kitchen with the burst oven, its leaky roof, its dark cellars and its noisy chimney on stormy nights. Even the fireplace throws out more shadows than light.
The house has its eyes, it has its nose and teeth, and all work together to keep you in and others out. Don't you see its arms holding you back, pulling you inexorably in, in, in, in, always in—no light for you, no life, and that is the way the house wants it. I know you want it the same way too, but today I stand here, calling to you. Won't you listen, just this once? Or will you pick up my call, fold it over and toss into the bin across your bed?
You have to decide, because this will be the only call that will ever come, the call from me to you.
Writing about being a lazy blogger
I have been writing a lot last week, only not at this blog or any of the others. A lot of that writing has been utter crap, but at a bare minimum I am showing up at the page every day and worrying less about the money I am making. In my book (pun not intended), that is progress already.
I am discovering the various joys of speed-writing, and at the very least it has been fun.
Writing about a Rocking Friar
Writing is my second profession, I started off with literature, veered off madly, and came right back to writing.
I wish I had some of the verve of this rocking Italian Cappuchin monk though:).
Changing what you do every few years is guaranteed to keep you young, energetic, and full of life. I don't think I will ever completely give up writing, but a few interesting career options come to mind.
Would you change what you do today if could? Want to talk about it?
Writing about writing a lot
I wrote a lot today, and finished a short story to boot.
Though I am feeling lousy (which I wont rant about here cos I have my separate rant blog now) otherwise, it is nice to go to bed with the thought that I at least got a lot of writing done.
Writing about nothing in particular
Writing is always such a tricky thing to do. The minute you decide you want to write "about" something, in a "particular way", you feel strained. I have often found that it is easier to permit myself to write rubbish, to accept that one cannot produce works of true genius all the time, and in the cases of some writers, maybe never at all.
It is the same with all art I suppose. You are trying so hard to create a masterpiece that you forget to relax and let things come to you. At the end of the day, it is important that you listen to what comes to you and take it down, instead of trying to "make" something.
I wish I could treat writing like I treat my reading. I read, and read too much for my own good, but not so I can sit for an exam, or gain something material. I do not have to be good at reading, and I can read anything, from manuals to menus, completely uncaring of what "quality" I read. I have read Harlequin romances and Goethe on the same day and enjoyed both. They were both worth my time, and I am not ashamed to say it.
Maybe I am not destined to become a great writer, I just don't have it in me. But that's alright. As long as I am enjoying what I am doing, or following a compelling need within, I should not complain.
Here is hoping that I get the "I" out of my system in this and my other blogs, and when I write otherwise, am able to forget that an "I" exists. A giant pen with ears— that is who I am, simply taking dictation from somewhere up above, or deep within.
I am not a writer, but a secretary to Someone Who Knows, taking dictation.
Now I have to make sure I write that down on my writing-desk!
Writing about being happy
Writing about being happy is not something I have been doing much of lately. It is mostly rants on the anonymous blog I have started (won't link to it, naturally, lol).
But today I am happy, and was happy writing. That is a rare thing for me. It is a blessing, and I am busy being grateful!

'Die, you're going to die': I was thinking, 'Boy, you're right'
Watch your local TV news and this website for more on this story
LYONS, Ore. - John Bach rented a room in his house to Wanda Foster and her son, Jonathan.
However, after having problems with Jonathan, Bach decided to kick Jonathan out of his house and file a restraining order.
Two weeks later, around midnight Friday, Bach said Jonathan woke him up.
According to Bach, Foster told him that he was there to kill him and started punching him in the face.
"I was down on the bed so they put a pillow over me and he had his hand in the middle of the pillow, pushing. He said 'Die, you're going to die,' and I was thinking in my head, 'Boy, you're right,'" said Bach.
When Foster learned that Bach was wearing a pacemaker for heart problems, Bach said Foster struck him several times in the chest.
After assaulting Bach, the sheriff's office said Jonathan Foster, Justina Chilcote and David Gonzalez Jr. fled the scene in Bach's stolen truck.
The vehicle was later involved in a hit-and-run incident in Salem, where it was abandoned.
Police received a call around 1:30 from Wanda Foster, who claimed she was bound and robbed by her son and his acquaintances.
Upon their arrival, police discovered Bach unconscious in his bedroom. He was transported to a Salem hospital, where he received medical care.
Bach said that several items of his were stolen, including money from under his mattress, a collection of silver coins, and a family heirloom passed down from his great-great-grandmother.
"That's the thing that bothers me the most," he said. "I was doing my will and trying to figure out which one of my boys I was going to give it to. Now, I don't have to worry about it, I guess."
Justina Chilcote and Jonathan Foster, both of Mill City, were arrested and charged with kidnapping, assault, robbery and attempted murder.
Police are still searching for David Gonzalez Jr. Anyone with information on his location is asked to call (541) 967-3950.
