There are two types of manicure junkies in the world: Those who have been requesting French tips since their very first set of acrylics, and the ones who are constantly on the hunt for the newest nail-art trend. If you consider yourself the latter, chances are you've been planning your bridal manicure since the day you got engaged.
While the classic French tip would be the perfect wedding-day throwback, you deserve something fresh and totally special. But when you've made the mistake of drowning yourself in endless inspiration, how does one even choose the best style to say "I do" to?
To make finding the one a tiny bit easier, we rounded up 10 nail art looks for you, the girl that refuses to wed in a set of been-there-done-that French tips.
There will be flowers everywhere on your wedding day. Why not add them to your manicure, too? Dried mini flowers lacquered on top of a nude nail is just as romantic as it is a serious masterpiece.
You can never shine too bright on your wedding day. This metallic mani is the perfect complement to that rock on your finger.
Every part of you will be dressed up on your wedding day. Why not make your cuticles look just as fancy?
If you can't decide between a clean, classic mani or going all out with an eye-catching pattern, strike a balance with a tonal design. Matte nude on shiny nude looks without being a complete snooze fest.
Your relationship was clearly written in the stars. This cosmic nail art look is a romantic gesture without being too obnoxious.
Planning on wearing lace from head to fingertips? Take a close-up photo of your lace dress to your nail technician for a custom design that's made for pairing with your gown. Can you think of a better match?
You have your something old, something new, and something borrowed. Now look no further for your something blue.
For a sophisticated (and totally out-of-the-box) approach to your bridal mani, opt for abstract shapes in wedding white paired with a neutral shade.
Proof you can wear a full-on pattern in high-contrast shades, while also having it feel wedding appropriate. Try a black micro polkadot over a super light pink polish for a modern and surprisingly understated manicure.
We're obsessed with this white floral pattern and rose gold accents. Whether you're having a beach wedding or a traditional ceremony in a grand cathedral, this versatile mani is the perfect addition to any bridal style.

There have been some prior forum threads on the reconstruction/implant considerations.
There may be something in them that you will find helpful.
There's a lot of info on the various threads and links.......it's a place to start.....
ask questions if anything is not clear ( and of course, discuss major questions with your MD)....
Here's some of the prior threads.
Some threads include info on all types of reconstructions.....so you will have to sort thru
to find the implant information.
I can not answer your specific questions as I did not have reconstruction.
Maybe others will see see your questions and post.
May you continue to be a minimalist in regards to side effects as you complete your chemo.
With caring and positive thoughts,
Grateful for today...............Judy
When I saw TE, I concentrated on that.
Just realized from another of your prior posts, that you will be having a double mastectomy.
You are probably looking for information on that.
In fact, it is the info and thoughts in the following 2 threads that you were looking for and not
so much the above info on TE.
There is info on the following threads on mastectomy that you may find helpful.
After reading the above threads, post any general questions. Consult your surgeon with your
specific questions re: your surgery and plan.

Are you having a single mastectomy or bilateral mastectomy with tissue expanders? I had the bi-mx with tissue expanders. There was lots of anxiety prior to the surgery for me. I've never had surgery before (except tonsils removed when I was 5). I had surgery one afternoon and went home the next day. It's a good idea to have someone help you the first week. The drains will need to be milked and the drainage recorded. I wasn't able to do it myself the first week, but could after that. My best advice would be to keep up with the pain meds given to you. The only time I felt pain was a few days after I came home I fell asleep on the sofa and missed a pain pill. I was scheduled to get one, but fell asleep for a couple of hours. I woke up in pain, but my husband gave me the pills and it felt better right away. My plastic surgeon gave me step down pain meds (3 different types where you take the first one after surgery, then gradually switch to less strong pills) and it wasn't too long where I was only taking the Ibuprofen and Valium (muscle relaxer).
My biggest advice:
1. If you are getting a bi-mx, you might want to sleep in a recliner the first week or two. You can't use your arms to push yourself out of bed. Instead they tell you to cross your arms over your chest and rock yourself out of the chair. A recliner with pillows on each side was the most comfortable way to sleep after the surgery.
2. Have others put dishes out on the counter for you. Again this is more important if you are having a bilateral. If only a single mastectomy, you'll be able to use your other arm.
3. Keep a log of medicine you've taken and the time for the next pill.
4. Keep a log of your drain tubes and amount drained from each one. The surgeon will use this to determine when the drain tube can be removed.
5. Have some big, button down shirts to wear. I used my husband's. You won't want anything you'll have to pull over your head during the recovery.
Each week will get better for you. I started chemo about 3 1/2 weeks after my surgery so I was fairly active by then. I had planned a month off of work for recovery. Some women get their drain tubes out sooner and can return to work sooner. It took 3 weeks to get my last drain tubes out (I had 3 on each side).
I was pleased with the reconstruction process. The tissue expanders can be uncomfortable (kind of hard, not like the implants). Before you go for a "fill", take a muscle relaxer (you won't be able to drive yourself) or an ibuprofin. The fills will stretch your skin and you might be a little uncomfortable for a day or two. The exchange surgery was a breeze. It was outpatient and I went home within an hour after the procedure. No drains and easy recovery.

The new digital versions are available at both the Google Play Store as well as iTunes App Store for £2.99 or $4.99 per issue. There will also be a version available for both the Kindle Fire and Nook range of tablets, which can be picked up from the Amazon and B&N app stores respectively.
The magazine carries extensive reviews of all the latest apps along with other features, such as the Top 200 Greatest Apps Ever, a comprehensive list of the best apps from every category.

Young bicoastal bassist Adam Lane has been collaborating with his mentors since he first worked with the great Danish saxophonist John Tchicai in the latter's California-based quartet Infinitesimal Flash two years ago. With his new album, Fo(u)r Being(s) (CIMP), Lane can put two more notches in his fiddle--trumpeter Paul Smoker and drummer Barry Altschul join him and Tchicai. The bassist is a fine player and even better composer; his long-form postbop melodies suggest the contrapuntal gusto of Charles Mingus and provide space for extended improvisation. But let's not kid anyone--his band is the main attraction here. Tchicai played in some of the most important free-jazz groups of the 60s--the New York Art Quartet with Roswell Rudd and Milford Graves and the New York Contemporary Five with Archie Shepp and Don Cherry--and contributed to Coltrane's epic Ascension and Albert Ayler's New York Eye and Ear Control. He doesn't record often these days, and this setting captures him at his best. He was always cooler than his 60s counterparts: though he bled the blues, he focused on his improvisations with the thoroughness of a scientist. Few musicians can extract so many variations from a short string of notes. Smoker, an Iowan with a brash tone, is an excellent foil, countering Tchicai's pinched tenor saxophone with garrulous plunger-mute growls and smears. But the rediscovery of Altschul, who has rarely been heard over the last decade, might be the album's greatest gift. Starting in the late 60s he worked with Dave Holland, Sam Rivers, and pianist Paul Bley in Circle, the collective with Chick Corea and Anthony Braxton, but he's done very little recording since the mid-80s. His propulsive, historically informed approach to free jazz sounds as good as ever here. You'd be lucky to catch such a great group of rarely heard players on the festival circuit, much less at an intimate venue like this. Friday, October 18, 9:30 PM, Velvet Lounge, 21281/2 S. Indiana; 312-791-9050.

With the proliferation of mobile devices in the enterprise, it would make sense for management and cost containment to be painless. However, there are numerous complications:
- Dropped connections
- Usage of unsecured networks
- Access of unapproved apps
- Auto logouts of necessary apps
These are just a handful of challenges that those overseeing mobile devices within their organizations are dealing with. Often times, these situations result in an increasing number of help tickets, taxing the IT department, and increasing costs. Throw in issues such as new combinations of devices and mobile OS releases, along with increased security threats, and it is no wonder that mobility costs can skyrocket.
We've partnered with NetMotion Software to author a report on how to minimize many of these issues, gain better visibility, and reduce costs. Included in this report are real-life use cases, such as:
- How Allina Healthcare cut 90 help desk tickets for one issue down to zero, and increased the number of daily patients that nurses could see by 3-4
- How AT&T was able to reduce mobile expenses by a staggering 43%
Featuring insights from:
- Eric Klein, director of enterprise mobility and connected networks at VDC Research
- Mark Bowker, senior analyst at ESG
- Kevin Curran, a senior member of the IEEE and professor of cyber security at Ulster University

DEERFIELD, Ill. (CBS) — Skunks – it's what the stink's all about. In the northern suburbs – skunks are making a big stink.
"It's just so prevalent right now," said Matt Kriser of The Barking Lot dog groomer in Deerfield. "How many skunk dogs are we getting a day? About one or two — that's a lot."
The latest victim was the Bluman family's 2-year-old Lab-mix named Georgia.
"She was freaking out in the back yard. I felt bad for her," said Laura Bluman. "Not bad enough to let her in."
Georgia was the latest victim in their neighborhood.
Skunk stats are at an all-time high, with double digit reporting increases over recent years, and there's a drastic spike in skunks captured by Nuisance Wildlife Control permit holders in northeastern Illinois: In 2011, there were 9,510 skunks captured, compared to 6,741 skunks in 2010.
"Biologists aren't sure why there have been more nuisance skunk problems the last couple of years," said Illinois Department of Natural Resources spokesman Tim Schweizer. "Skunks are seasonally active in the fall, eating a lot to get ready for winter.

It is an industry think tank which found that public cloud services in the Middle East and North Africa (M.E.N.A) region will reach and a mark of $1.2 billion in 2017. After calculations, it was drawn that the industries will experience 22 percent increase in acceptance for cloud computing alone in the M.E.N.A region.
Now it is normal for users to think why one should go for cloud solutions. Our environment in which we work has changed completely. With a new type of threats and vulnerabilities, business requires a security system which can help safe guard the future of a company. Cloud services like disaster recovery (DRaaS) and backup provide you the safety from various problems which can halt your work to a great extent.
A managed cloud service is a convenient, budget-friendly and robust solution which has enhanced the IT capability of any multinational without any significant investment in their own IT department. Cloud services have plenty of encryption, data division, and other security measures which can ensure you the full security of data. When you contemplate the choices amongst going for cloud computing or not you should always weigh the pros and cons of the services. But most companies can realize excellent advantages by using either a partial or full cloud environment to save money and increase convenience.

Jill Stuart Passion Fruit Jelly Eye Color Review & Swatches
Jill Stuart Jelly Eye Color in Passion Fruit is one of three new, limited edition shades released for Summer 2013 in Japan. Prepare to be amazed if you're a fan of Jelly Eye Color because seriously there is like NO sparkle in this shade.
Truest story ever.
Jill Stuart Jelly Eye Color is typically packed full of shimmer. I'm talking bits of delightful glittery goodness in almost every single shade so I was quite shocked after purchasing Passion Fruit and not seeing any shimmer at all!
I kinda sorta want to say that this shade reminds me of a shimmer-free Bird Flutter which was released last year and no longer available but the color is a softer, almost pastel shade of coral. It's quite pretty but I must admit that the lack of shimmer doesn't have as much impact on the shade as I would like.
This comes in a little glass jar with a gorgeous silver topper. It's Jill Stuart's typical legendary elegant packaging! It's stunning and looks quite lovely on a vanity, it's not the type of makeup you simply stash away! It's definitely for displaying.
The formula is a whipped fluffy consistency with a lightweight feel on lids. It blends easily and builds just as easily with a slower set time so you have plenty of time to work. I've always found these cream shadows a breeze to apply and use. A small dab on fingers and you can easily smooth it into place for a gorgeous eye look. They have a sweet rose scent that's very pleasant. They typically wear strong for me so long as I have eyeshadow primer on but they tend to crease at hour six without and fade away completely into hour seven. With primer I can get a solid 12 hours wear without any issues of fading or creasing.
I have to admit I miss the shimmer….! I navigate to Jelly Eye Color due to the sparkle factor and without it this just seems like a sheer creamy eyeshadow without any real pull for me.
Le sigh…
Aw the sadness of a Jill Stuart Jelly Eye Color without shimmer.
If you've always loved the formula but hated the shimmer you'll be quite happy with this!
I got mine directly from Japan but I'm sure Adambeauty.com will be getting Jill Stuart Summer 2013 in shortly.

Print Recipe
This is another winning recipe from the 1945 Women's Institutes Home Cookery Book. No doubt the French name was intended to give
an exotic appeal, but they are not extravagant with ingredients and they certainly are delicious. Demonstrated at the 2011 Melbourne Food and Wine Festival.
Sponge Drops:
Preheat the oven to 200ºC and line 2 baking trays with baking paper or grease them lightly.
Bring the eggs to room temperature. (The quickest way to do this if they are in the fridge is to put them in a bowl, and cover with hot water from the tap, and leave for 10 minutes)
Sift together the flour and baking powder.
Put the whole egg, the egg yolk and the cold water into a bowl with the caster sugar and beat with an electric beater for at least 5 minutes until pale yellow and fluffy. The mixture should fall in ribbons from the beaters and remain on the surface for a few seconds before sinking.
Sift the dry ingredients onto the egg mixture and fold through care fully using a metal spoon.
Drop the mixture in very small circular spoonfuls onto the prepared trays, trying to keep them all the same size. You could also use a forcing bag with 13mm plain nozzle and pipe out tiny mounds.
Bake for 5–6 minutes until just golden. Leave on the tray for a few minutes before removing to a cooling rack. Store in an airtight container until you need them.
Meringue Tops:
Line two baking trays with baking paper or grease them lightly. Allow the oven temperature to reduce to 150ºC.
Beat the egg white with the cold water until stiff peaks form, and then beat in the caster sugar a spoonful at a time. Keep beating until you have a stiff and glossy meringue.
Put the mixture in small spoonfuls on the prepared trays, trying to keep them all the same size – or use a forcing bag, as for the sponge drops.
Distribute the flaked almonds over the top of the meringues – just a few on each.
Bake for about 1 hour until the meringues are quite firm through and the almonds are a lovely golden brown. Cool on a wire rack and store airtight until you need them.
To Serve:
An hour before you intend to serve the bonbons, set out some paper cases on a flat serving plate – a pavlova plate works well.
Put a sponge drop into each case, top side down. Put a small spoonful of jam or lemon honey onto each, and follow with a more generous spoonful of unsweetened whipped cream. (You could also fold the jam through the cream for a one-stage filling process.) Balance a meringue on top of each and dust them with icing sugar.
Makes about 36 Bonbons

Folate in Early Pregnancy May Boost Wheezing in Baby
Dec. 3 -- TUESDAY, Dec. 2 (HealthDay News) -- Infants whose mothers take folic acid (folate) during early pregnancy may have an increased risk for respiratory illness, according to a Norwegian study.
Folate is recommended to reduce the risk of birth defects, and many countries fortify their flour with folic acid.
The researchers examined data on more than 32,000 children born between 2000 and 2005 who were part of the Norwegian Mother and Child Cohort Study. The mothers had been surveyed about their dietary habits and intake of supplements (including folate) at several points before and after the birth of their children.
After they adjusted for other factors, the researchers found that infants whose mothers took folate supplements in the first three months of pregnancy were slightly more likely than other infants to have wheezing and/or respiratory infections up to the age of 18 months. These children were also 24 percent more likely to be admitted to hospital for treatment of their respiratory infection.
The study appears in the current issue of the Archives of Disease in Childhood.
The researchers noted that folate and other vitamins affect a biochemical process called methylation, which in turn alters genetic activity. There's been no comprehensive research into the impact of methylation on the immune system and respiratory diseases. However, recent evidence suggests that methylation may play an important role in the development of certain immune T-cells and could influence the development of airway inflammation in early childhood, the Norwegian team suggested.
Studies in mice have shown that high levels of folic acid and other similar substances in early pregnancy increase the risk of allergic asthma in offspring.

The U.S. National Women's Health Information Center has more about folic acid.

Behind The Lines Vol. 20
So who's had a worse couple of months, Ashlee Simpson or Prince Harry? A Nazi uniform for a Halloween costume, I mean it goes beyond any concept of normal behavior. The Prince must be bipolar or something. In an awful effort at transition let's move on to the Crown Prince of the Pigskin for a minute. Peyton Manning seems to have the world on a string doesn't he? Finding anyone who thinks the Patriots can stop the Colts juggernaut is more difficult than finding a virgin in Curacao. We'll get back to that game in a moment.
First let's take a review of last week's action. Saturday was a very good day. A lot of places were taking balanced action on the Rams and Seahawks. Nobody truly believed in the Seahawks so the Rams were the play. But even though the wrong side won, it wasn't a lopsided decision and they managed to break up all teaser action on the Rams. As we've discussed in this space ad nauseam, if you can break up the teasers on most games, it's going to make for a plus decision on the game. The rare exceptions are when you have those absolute monster decisions and that's when you have to have a win or it's going to be an ugly day.
The late game on Saturday was a bigger decision. All week the action was coming in fast and furious on San Diego. A couple of the places down here in Curacao were considering making the move from -6.5 to -7. But those places were wise not to make the move as there was some heavy late action on the J-E-T-S, Jets, Jets, Jets. Still was a winner as Marty Schottenheimer once again managed to have the better team and still lost.
It was a good think a profit was taken on Saturday because Sunday was ugly. The "can't miss" Colts were once again a huge public favorite. They had been all year, so why would anyone expect that to change, especially against an overmatched Broncos team. This was a strange game because I was in the offices of Oasis Casino and Sportbook about 2 hours before kickoff. They needed the Broncos but it wasn't anything extraordinary. However when I checked back with them just after kickoff the decision had grown to ten times the amount it was when I left!
That game was over before the first quarter ended and it was an ugly number sitting there heading into the Packers and Vikings matchup. This was another weird game in that all week the action was coming in on Green Bay and it looked like the books would need Minnesota. But again, right before kickoff the serious money came in and it was on the Vikings. So an already bad day got even worse. In fact the loss on Sunday cancelled the win from Saturday and then some. So the momentum the books were riding since early December finally hit a bump in the road.
What's going on in the games this weekend? Well, there are four games being played again. And how many underdogs is the public backing this weekend? Four. That's right, in every single game this weekend the team that's getting the points is getting the wagers. With Indianapolis and Minnesota it's not even close, they're getting 75% of the action. A closer look at the AFC matchups …
NY Jets @ Pittsburgh – Sat. 4:30 PM (CBS)
This is one game where I think the public has a short memory. Pittsburgh's defense has been absolutely manhandling teams and Ben Roethlisberger still is undefeated as an NFL starter. The Steeler crowd will be going absolutely crazy. The line opened Pittsburgh -9 and the Jets are getting a slight majority of the action, 55%. The number has gone down to -8.5 at most places but I think we are going to see a repeat of the Minnesota/Green Bay scenario from last week. I think the late, smart money is going to come in on Pittsburgh and I'll still be down here in the thick of things to see if my theory holds. After sitting behind the chair for so long you just have an instinct about these things.
Indianapolis @ New England – Sun. 4:30 (CBS)
The game we touched upon in the intro. The game opened New England -2.5 and the public wasted no time in jumping on the Colts. Right now they're getting 3/4 of the action. The line has gone down to -2 and -1.5 at some outs. The Colts looked like an absolute machine last week in their dismantling of the Broncos. But as recently as Week 15 of the regular season, the Colts were held to 20 points in a home game. Now they're going to New England and Bill Belichick is doing his best to channel Red Auerbach by gaining every possible advantage for his team. That included leaving the Gillette Stadium field uncovered during the recent storms of mixed rain and snow. One observer said the field looks like they had a monster truck rally on it.
Throw in the fact that you're talking about the defending world champions in a home game, then maybe the overload on the Colts should be slowed down a bit. Then again, I think New England has your cousin playing secondary this week, the one place you can't afford to be week against the Colts. I've always been a guy who likes to see the champ get knocked out before you start the funeral procession.
Teaser Of The Week
The Jets cost me last week with their stunning victory at San Diego. They dominated most of the game … and still should have lost. If San Diego's kicker had made the 40 yd. field goal, the Bolts still make the teaser cover. Oh well. I don't see the Jets being able to keep it close in Pittsburgh, so the Steelers down to -1.5 will be the first selection. While the Colts up to +8.5 sure looks tempting, I think St. Louis has a chance of putting up a lot of points at Atlanta so we'll take them up to +14. Enjoy the games this weekend … T.B.

Vikings raided and plundered Ireland for much of the ninth century, eventually establishing two outposts. The fates of those two settlements couldn't be more different. The Dúbh Linn outpost became, well, Dublin, but the other was lost forever... until now.
According to the fifteenth century history work The Annals of Ulster, the Vikings started wreaking havoc on Ireland in 795, but eventually they settled down enough to found a couple outputs, Dúbh Linn and Linn Duchaill. The ultimate fate of Linn Duchaill had been an archaeological mystery for centuries, until last week's announcement that the settlement had been found 45 miles north of Dublin in the village of Annagassan.
The people of Annagassan have long possessed a rich oral tradition of Viking raids and a nearby lost settlement. This story has been backed up by occasional small discoveries, like ancient handcuffs the Vikings would have used on their slaves. All this was enough to convince local filmmaker Ruth Cassidy to enlist the help of archaeologist friend Mark Clinton to find the lost outpost.
The search began in 2005, and it wasn't until 2007 - when they were nearly at the point of giving up - that they finally found something worthwhile. They discovered a flat area a mile or so upriver from Annagassan that seemed ideal for shipbuilding, which meant it was the perfect place for a medieval outpost. They enlisted the help of a geophysicist, who found a bunch of defensive ditches, all about fifteen feet deep.
The fact that these ditches were arranged in straight lines didn't fit with the more circular patterns of the ring forts built by medieval Irishmen. Nor was there any evidence of a Norman castle here. That meant this had to be the work of Vikings, and subsequent excavations turned up an amazing 200 artifacts in just three short weeks. The settlement was definitely a big one, and there's evidence of shipbuilding, carpentry, smelting, and even an artificial island that would have been used for defense against the locals.
Archaeologists are hopeful that this really is Linn Duchaill, although until artifacts are dated it won't be possible to know for sure. As Viking expert Peter Pentz explains, this find could provide invaluable insight into a ninth century Viking outpost, not to mention prove the reliability of The Annals of Ulster:
"If the settlement found can be identified as Linn Duchaill, its value for linking archaeology to the written sources is very important. In addition, it appears that the site is almost untouched by later activity, unlike those of Dublin-some longphorts developed into urban settlements-and thus it might provide important knowledge of this particular type of settlement."
Of course, this does leave one question - why did Dúbh Linn eventually become Ireland's most important city, while Linn Duchaill was lost to time? We don't know for sure, but archaeologists suspect it all has to do with access to the sea. Dublin enjoys pretty much constant access to the ocean, which provided Vikings with an escape hatch if they were ever under attack. Linn Duchaill, on the other hand, is blocked off from the sea for hours each day because of shifting tides, which may mean the Vikings were eventually surrounded and killed by the indigenous Irish with no chance of escape.

Wow, another Christmas has come and gone!! It's amazing all the prep work and build up, then it's over for another year. It was fun, and we were blessed with a great day of being together to celebrate.
Our day began early with Hannah up and about, anxious for us to get up and turn on lights, so we could start. Her reaction when she came out and saw the pile of goodies, and that Santa had not only eaten the cookies and milk for him, but the remnants of the reindeer snacks was also evident. He had also taken the crafts she made for him and answered her note about last years gifts, and then had left a thank you on the back of her note. She was thrilled!!
Lauren was a bit hesitant in coming out not sure if she'd find anything for herself. With all the activities and build up these last few weeks, she's had a few meltdowns, and she thought she'd made it on "the naughty list", and could only look forward to a lump of coal in her stocking. Santa was gracious in overlooking these as he knew she was trying to be better, so she was beyond thrilled to see the goodies left for her!!
Kevin, Cameron and I were not left out. We each had wonderful surprises in our stockings and Cameron got a new Itouch that replaced his old one lost accidentally while fishing. Needless to say he was quite pleased with this. So, after all the presents were opened, I got busy fixing our meal and preparing for Grandma's arrival. Poppie wasn't feeling well, so he wasn't able to join us. We made sure to send Grandma home with a care package of food, so when he was up to it he could enjoy some of what he'd had to miss out on.
After eating and talking, all the while Kevin was busy putting toys and doll stuff together, or installing batteries and testing electronics, we headed out front for the kids to test the girls radio controlled trucks and Cameron's remote controlled helicopter. The day was perfect and it felt great to move and burn off a bit of what we ate.
|Cameron really managed to maneuver the helicopter around beautifully
We ended our day with a few favorite Christmas movies, before finally closing out another incredible and blessed day!! For all who celebrate Christmas, we hope yours was just as special.

He wrote: Three phases of this storm. First, Livingston parish was hit and that is mostly conservative Republicans. Add a few subtle culture aspects of those who are Cajun or live and adhere to country rural living, and the people in Livingston Parish have the personalities that under these circumstances would challenge President Obama. The Governor knows this and kept him away. The second wave of the storm is what flooded various parts of Baton Rouge. They have the first wave of backflow water that is now part of the third phase, Ascension parish. These areas are black areas of the city and black people here hate Democrat Mayor Kip Holden because they feel he didn't do enough during Alton Sterling killing. They wanted Kip to fire cops, stand up for "the community" or at least show his face. His lack of leadership really created a lot of animosity. During this storm he has mainly done phone in appearance and hasn't shown his face. During the demonstrations in July, you could see how angry the black people in Baton Rouge were and they weren't afraid to shout it back then to every TV camera they could find. Again, everyone knew this and so it made sense to keep Obama away from there, too, even though that area was hit very hard.Up until President Obama landed, no one knew exactly where he was going. The parish president of Livingston, one of the hardest hit areas, gave an interview confirming the President would not be coming there. Trump and his mini motorcade went to Livingston last week.
It's starting to seem like Obama holding off his Louisiana trip so he could finish his vacation in Martha's Vineyard, seems to be waking African Americans up that the left or our president truly doesn't care about them. Even after Trump took a tour of the devistation in Louisiana, Obama put off his visit for another week so he could squeeze in more rounds of golf on vacation. Putting his vacation first proves that Obama could care less about the African American lives that were affected by this storm. The only time Obama cares about black people, is only when black criminals are put in there final resting place by police. The storm devastation in Louisiana doesn't fit his war on cops agenda, and neither does people of all colors in Louisiana helping each other in the horrible flood that has affected the state. All Obama's showing up in Louisiana was a photo op to somehow prove he cares when he doesn't at all. This man who wrote this letter couldn't be more right, and I wish more African Americans would wake up and do the same.

Côte D'Ivoire: Inquiry's Shortcuts Raise Red Flags
Human Rights Watch
23 February 2012
Côte d'Ivoire's national commission of inquiry investigating the 2010-2011 post-election violence should extend its mandate by six months to August 2012, Human Rights Watch said today. The extension would better ensure an impartial and comprehensive investigation into crimes committed by all sides, Human Rights Watch said.
Although created in July 2011, the commission only began its investigations in mid-January 2012 and is already finalizing its report. It appears unlikely to have adequately either documented the conflict's serious crimes or identified those responsible on both sides after only a month of investigations, Human Rights Watch said.
In meetings with Human Rights Watch, Ivorian civil society representatives, United Nations officials, and diplomats highlighted serious problems with the commission. They cited its failure to include representation from pro-Gbagbo groups and to consult sufficiently with civil society, and said the commission appears to have rushed its work. (…)
(…) The commission was created after a UN-established international commission of inquiry and international human rights groups found that both sides had committed war crimes and likely crimes against humanity as former president Laurent Gbagbo tried to hold on to power after losing the election to Ouattara.
To date, all of the at least 120 people charged by military and civilian prosecutors with post-election crimes are from the Gbagbo camp.
When questioned about the one-sided justice that has so far marked Côte d'Ivoire, Ouattara has cited the national commission of inquiry as evidence of his commitment to impartiality and promised to ensure that the people the commission's report finds criminally responsible are brought to justice. (…)
(…) The vast majority of victims who suffered abuses by the pro-Ouattara Republican Forces do not feel secure speaking to the commission. This raises serious concerns of a one-sided report and demands greater efforts by the commission to solicit the testimony from victims of abuses committed by pro-Ouattara forces and to protect victims and witnesses from reprisals, Human Rights Watch said. (…)
The leader of another Ivorian human rights organization said that while the group had "consultative" meetings with the commission prior to its field work, the body "hasn't really associated with civil society… nothing concrete. We've had no role in reality."
UN officials and Ivorian activists likewise criticized the cursory nature or even complete lack of investigations in certain areas particularly hard-hit by human rights abuses or where a large concentration of victims remain. (…)
Human Rights Watch called on the Ivorian government to ensure that the commission is able to complete a comprehensive, in-depth examination into the post-election crimes. This should include sufficient time throughout the country and in neighboring Liberia to build confidence with and interview victims on both sides.

I rarely post my outfits, but that's because I'm not really that comfortable in front of the camera. But two things aligned yesterday. First I had my mother's awesome camera and I wanted to play with it. Second, everything I wore yesterday was made up of different colors and yet somehow.... it worked as a look.
Can you find any colors from hat to nails that are the same? OK, my lipstick is a little similar to my top, but that doesn't count. ;)
My brown Aldo boots... I live in these. They have a smaller heel then I usually go for, but I have no doubt that the smaller heel has saved me from getting a sprained ankle.
It was fun to break out of my staple black and grey outfit zone.
Hat: I can't remember, but I want another one.
Fuchsia Top: Spun - I also own a white & blue one.
Green Button Down: Marshalls
Jeans: Uniqlo
Boots: Aldo
Lipstick: Mac Vegas Volt
Earrings & Rings: H&M
Nail Polish: The "It" Color & Gargantuan Green Grape by OPI
