1. Good ways to Lose Weight Fast Tip Number 1
If you read a lot of weight related books and guides, you'll find that one of the repeatedly emphasized ideas to maximum weight loss includes healthy diet and nutrition. Usually this can be easier said than done because dieters end up going back to the foods that made them fat and discard the meal plan altogether. One of the top tips to keep in mind would be to change your eating habits gradually unless you eliminate all processed foods. I know how hard this is that's why i recommend which you do this gradually rather than all at once. In order to shed weight easily, you have to know that food is a very important aspect of your journey to lose weight. Whatever kinds of food you eat can either enhance your weight or reduce it. The top efficient ways to lose weight fast through proper dieting and nutrition is to consume foods that accelerate weight reduction and also help to reduce weight fast like raw fruits and vegetables, organic meat, fish, eggs and lots other unprocessed foods..
2. Efficient ways to lose weight fast Tip Two
The second tip to effective weight reduction is to avoid all junk foods and carbonated drinks out of your meal plan. I mention this quite a lot in my articles because though important, most dieters overlook it and wonder why they merely can't lose weight fast. Your meals plan is a very important part of your weight loss goals then one of the top good ways to lose weight fast is to focus on raw organic foods that don't contain any sweeteners or additives. The additives typically contain sugar that is high in calories and harmful to weight loss. Another tip includes avoiding carbonated drinks and sodas that also contain sweeteners high in sugar. These additives or addictives when i like to call them make you crave for more and more.Instead, a tip on the effective ways to quick weight loss is to drink plenty of water and remain hydrated, this will not merely flush out toxins from the body but water will help you to lose weight fast by curbing out cravings for sweets and biscuits as you feel fuller with every gulp. A plus for drinking habits is that it does not contain any calories therefore making it one of the top effective ways to lose weight fast. Water intake will even boost your metabolism and make you stay energized from all your intensive exercise routines.

3. Effective ways to quick weight loss Tip # 3
Another top effective way to reduce body fat fast is to stay motivated and to persevere. When starting a weight loss program, most dieters think they're able to just apt and have started and start seeing results today. Weight reduction does not work like that, most dieters fail by using it because they lose motivation using their workout or perhaps their cardio routines are too long and boring or maybe they hate half the meal on their meal plan. Weight reduction can be a challenge but it's not impossible. You need to stay motivated to get your weight loss goals. Discover a workout partner, enroll in a gym, be innovative using your meal plan, if you don't like cabbage use lettuce instead, have some fun and don't beat yourself up a lot of. If you cheat, don't stop just get back up and keep centering on your weight loss goals. One of several top effective ways to maximum fat reduction is to stay positive and have people who want to achieve weight-loss so that you can learn and share.
4. Efficient ways to lose weight fast Tip # 4
Working out is one of the top great ways to reduce weight fast but if you want maximum fat loss, you need to take it up a notch. Hard of boring cardio won't help you out on this one, you should combine strength training with cardio to attain maximum weight loss. To find the best effective ways to lose weight fast with exercise, it is recommended get a trainer if possible. A common mistake that dieters make would be to workout specific areas of the body where they want to see weight loss like the arms, the thighs or belly. There may be some exercise routines or machines meant for these specific body parts however if you want top effective ways to lose weight fast, you need to workout out all the large muscle groups within you, work the entire body and you'll drop the scale numbers. When was the last time you saw a fat person with really thin arms, not a pretty sight. You need to workout your entire body to get a better sculpture and slim looking body.
There you have you top 4 good ways to lose weight fast and keep it well permanently. I know how hard this can be but though challenging, it can be done. Think of that sexy body you would like and how great you are going to look in that bikini. Think of those nice sexy abs you've always wanted, you can achieve weight goals that you simply deserve, get started today and initiate seeing results immediately.
What if after trying everything you still can't get rid of that unwanted body fat. I know how hard, challenging and daunting fat loss can be but if you really want to gain your self esteem back and enhance your self confidence, you will need fat loss methods that work and convey permanent results.

Oh, these last three years have been gold for us long-time fans of BBC TV's Doctor Who. For starters, we finally get to come out of the closet and display our Dalek toys proudly because this newly regenerated incarnation of TV's longest-serving science fiction series has become not just a national institution in the UK; it's a U.S. and international hit, and has picked up more serious, non-fanboyish awards than you can shake a sonic screwdriver at. These last three years have been hit or miss (a Doctor Who tradition since 1963), but when it hits it's some of the best sci-fi on TV (at times some of the best TV on TV).
With David Tennant returning for his second year as the wayfaring Time Lord (redefining "the DTs" for swoony fans worldwide), Season 3 starts strong with the arrival of the Doctor's new companion, Martha Jones (Freema Agyeman), in a good old-fashioned monster romp that transports a London hospital to the moon, where we find blood-sucking aliens, rhino-headed galactic stormtroopers, and the revelation of interstellar Magic Markers.
Other adventures pit the Doctor and Martha against ancient witches in Shakespeare's Globe Theater, a super-traffic jam billions of years in the future, and a malevolent force plunging a starship crew into a sun. The low points here are the "Daleks in Manhattan" two-parter, which does everything wrong, and (I can hear the fan forums gnashing now) the three-part season finale that resurrects the Doctor's arch-nemesis, the Master. While there's much to enjoy in John Simm's energetic turn as the evil Time Lord, those three episodes prove once again that series' creator Russell T. Davies really shouldn't be the one writing the season cappers.
However, some of the best stories the series has seen, ever, come from its two best writers -- Paul Cornell's chilling, moving two-parter "Human Nature"/"The Family of Blood" drives home both the Doctor's alienness and his humanity, and Steven Moffat's scary, enthralling "Blink" is worth the DVD set all by itself (and has us scouring the TV listings for more from young guest star Carey Mulligan, who's going to around for a long, long time).
All 13 eps are here, along with the feature-length Christmas special "The Runaway Bride," in 1.78:1 widescreen and DD 5.1 sound. They're of course uncut, which shouldn't need to be mentioned unless you've seen these only in their whittled-down Sci Fi Channel airings, in which case it's a bonus. This series' DVD sets have been generous with the extras, and this time we get episode commentaries from the cast, producers, writers, directors and others; selections from David Tennant's Video Diary; this season's thirteen "Doctor Who Confidential" episodes (totaling 2 1/2 hours); "Music And Monsters" (one hour) connects the "Doctor Who Confidential" entry for "The Runaway Bride" to the live "Children in Need Concert" of music from the show (joined on stage by David Tennant and assorted alien hordes); trailers and previews.
For devotees of old-school Doctor Who, this week also sees BBC Warner DVD releases of two lesser serials from 1982 with Peter Davison playing the Doctor: Doctor Who: Time-Flight and Doctor Who: Arc of Infinity. Although these are by no means the best of the Peter Davison years, the DVD releases of "classic" Doctor Who are always superbly produced with painstaking restorations and quality extras.http://www.film.com/dvds/story/newdvdspindrwhoflightoftheconchordscolbertreport/11597476/17228828

But the Competition Bureau says regulators need to do more than simply capping roaming rates to prevent the big three wireless carriers from stifling any new competition.
The bureau was the first to appear at public hearings that began today into the health of Canada's wholesale wireless market.
The CRTC is examining whether more regulation is needed to taper or cap the wholesale rates cellphone carriers charge other wireless companies to allow their customers to roam outside of their home networks.
And while the commission is not examining the roaming rates consumers pay, bureau senior economist Patrick Hughes told the hearings that wholesale and retail markets are inherently linked.
As the hearings got underway, at least one think tank questioned whether the CRTC should do anything at all to affect the wholesale roaming market. The Montreal Economic Institute says, despite the impression of some Canadians that they pay among the highest cellphone roaming rates, consumers in many other countries pay more.
Still, the Competition Bureau told the CRTC there is evidence that the profit margins of the major wireless carriers are higher than they should be.
The Harper government has repeatedly tried — so far unsuccessfully — to entice a fourth national player to set up a wireless service in Canada to compete against Bell, Rogers and Telus.
The government's argument has been that more competition would result in lower consumer prices.
The Competition Bureau agreed, saying a fourth national carrier would increase choice and reduce retail wireless prices by about two per cent.
Quebecor Inc. has suggested the wholesale roaming rates it pays to piggy back on a major carrier's cellphone towers may prevent it from expanding its mobile business.
Other smaller carriers have also said roaming rates are a major factor affecting their ability to compete.
But Rogers Communications Inc., BCE Inc. and Telus Corp. maintain that further regulation would hinder their ability to invest in improvements to their own wireless networks.
Ottawa has already passed legislation capping the rates carriers can charge on a wholesale basis at no more than what they charge their customers at the retail level, pending the outcome of this week's hearings.
Montreal-based Cogeco Cable Inc., which is hoping to offer wireless services without building its own cell tower network, is expected to ask the CRTC to adopt new rules to allow for the creation of what are known as mobile virtual networks, effectively giving smaller carriers access to large players' spectrum and cell towers.

Some of the minor elements of the replica, as also the stock, are made of plastic.
The V.3 gearbox is used to power the replica and is equipped with a set of steel reinforced thread-wheels which are placed on steel ball bearings. A directional piston head was also used with a stronger spring and an aluminum sleeve located in the piston.
The set includes:

Number of reviews: 6 Average rating: 4.83
Very confortable and effective
Very Good quality, and works Very well :)
I was very surprised by the quality, I have 2 other AK variants from Cyma as well that I'm very happy with, but it still surprised me. It's a bit heavier than the average one, because the rifle mimics a milled receiver instead of a stamped one. Along with the rails on top of the dust cover, and the metal stock tube. It is very sturdy, and even if you don't use the rails on top, I find it makes it very easy to aim down the sights, as it's now easier to see if you're holding it straight. I still need to find a proper Allen key to tighten the screw that holds the upper rail system to the small piece that holds the stock tube. Aside from that everything is perfect. If you were worried like me, you don't need to unscrew the rail system to change the battery, if you flip the rear sight forward, you can push up the rail system, and remove the dust cover to replace the battery, without removing anything. I just need to find some AK47-style synthetic handguards without rails, and then I'd be done. Very good rifle, both for beginners, aswell as for an upgrade platform, as the externals are of high quality.
I was surprised of it's performance - good range, acuracy and grouping. Very good stuff for it's low price. With more powerfull battery it could do even more.. :) Only thing - I sudjest to buy metal mags, coz original plastic feels cheap.
Great rifle. Its heavy and feels really well built. I'd say you get alot for the money. However, the magazine did not latch on correctly. Used my old midcaps though and they worked great. A tip before using the rifle: Silicone the hopup carefully. And make sure to clean the barrel before use, it was very dirty.

Las 4 Monedas (The Four Coins) are pioneers of Venezuelan ska and reggae. The band, originally known as Los Hermanos O'Brien, was composed of the O' Brien siblings Marlene, Kenny, Brenda, and Gary. The famous Venezuelan composer and producer Hugo Blanco discovered them in 1968 and changed their name.
Las 4 Monedas represents Venezuela's "first wave" of reggae-rocksteady and was the first Venezuelan group to record a reggae song. That song, "Buena Suerte" (Good Luck), is set to the tune of Desmond Dekker's "007 (Shanty Town)" and is still popular in Venezuela today. The band toured the world, performing in Europe, Israel, and throughout Latin America.
Las 4 Monedas translated numerous English-language classics into Spanish, including Chuck Berry's "Roll Over Beethoven," Bobbie Gentry's "Ode to Billy Joe," and Aretha Franklin's "Chain of Fools."

This song is based off Psalms 37 and 46. When I sat down to work on the tune, the Lord brought to mind Psalm 46:10: "Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth." I think the words we must hear from God quite often are: "Be still!" "Do not fear!" and "Be Joyful!"
We, as humans, have a tendency to fear and to fret, and to worry and to get distressed over the circumstances of our lives. So, God continually reminds us that we are not to fear, but that we are to put our trust in Him alone. He reminds us when we are getting impatient, or we are worried about the outcome of something going on in our lives, that we are to be still and to wait patiently before the Lord. And, in all that we are going through, he continually reminds us that we are to give thanks to God, and we are to be joyful, and even to leap for joy when we are mistreated and rejected. I am so thankful for these continual reminders from God, aren't you?
Be Still / An Original Work / February 29, 2012
Based off Psalm 37 and 46
God's our refuge and our strength,
An ever-present help in trouble.
Therefore we will not fear,
Though the mountains fall into the sea.
The Lord Almighty is with us;
God of Jacob is our fortress.
"Be still, and know that I am God;
Exalted I'll be."
Trust in the Lord and do good;
And delight yourself in the Lord,
And He will give you your heart's desires.
Commit your way to the Lord.
Trust in Him and He will do this:
He will make your righteousness shine
Like the dawn, the justice of your
Cause – the noon-day sun.
Be still before the Lord,
And wait patiently for Him; do not fear.
Fretting only leads to evil.
Put your hope in Jesus Christ.
If the Lord delights in your way,
He makes your steps firm and steady.
The Lord upholds you with His hand,
So you will not fall.

They're criminals and they lie, that's their job.
Fraud Act 2006 –
Fraud by false representation
note that it says "***might*** be, untrue or misleading"
Fraud by abuse of position
*Always* record everything… you need evidence.
Maybe do a 'Subject Access Request' to get copies of their phone recordings (I bet they go 'missing').
Quote the Fraud Act at them and if you can *prove* that atos are lying about you 'not attending' (witness?)… call the cops?.. meh call the cops anyway.
And checkout –
Witness Intimidation –
If you get any more BS from those criminals… dwp threats of financial harm will count as Witness Intimidation.

Grosvenor's Glenn
April 28, 2012
Another biggy this week was locating the Welches. A friend of mine, Carol Ann Carruthers, who grew up in Murphysboro and became a math professor at Kent State, researches for me. You may recall that the three boys were left orphans when Claude B. and Grace Grosvenor Welch were gunned down by a deranged man in E St Louis. Claude Vernon's daughter Cynthia Carlson contacted me a month or so ago when she found the memorial I had created for him on findagrave. Carol Carruthers found Bill in Jefferson Baracks Cemetery and Harold in Lakeview Cemetery in Fairview Illinois. We now have memorials for all with links to Claude and Grace on findagrave.
And finally, another Carol Carruthers find: Some documentation on Edward Earl Grosvenor.... Ship Fitter 1C . The son of Roscoe French Grosvenor. he went missing in action in WWII. His name is inscribed on a Navy monument for the lost at sea, in Battery Park in New York. I will create a memorial.

U.S. retail sales rose slightly more than expected in February, pointing to some strength in the economy after harsh weather abruptly slowed activity in recent months.
The Commerce Department said on Thursday retail sales increased 0.3 percent last month as receipts rose in most categories. That followed a revised 0.6 percent drop in January and ended two straight months of declines.
Economists polled by Reuters had forecast retail sales, which account for about 30 percent of consumer spending, rising 0.2 percent last month after a previously reported 0.4 percent drop in January.

An unusually cold and snowy winter disrupted economic activity at the end of 2013 and the beginning of this year. Economists had expected only a marginal increase in retail sales in February after snow and ice blanketed densely populated regions during the first half of the month.

My name is Chris, and welcome to my blog. I'm really, really terrible with introductory writing, so please don't expect a big ol' formal "about me" or anything. I strongly dislike talking about myself, so I'll try to curb any of that.
I'm a gamer by hobby. I've been told I have a way with words, but only when they're written--vocally, I am far less gifted. I am an in-house writer/reviewer for inMotion Gaming, an up-and-coming video game community focused on giving 'unexposed' game writers a chance to shine. I happened upon iMG on a whim a couple of months ago, and have been writing for them since.
So...the purpose of this blog! It is, in essence, my 'scratchpaper.' All of my feature length articles about video games are written for inMotion Gaming and can be found here.
But really, gaming is one of my many interests. I love photography. I live in the Pacific Northwest, which is a completely gorgeous part of the world. I attend school for information technology, although I'm a former music education major. I'm getting married in June! Her name is Monica, and she studies Psychology. :)
I think that's really the gist of it. Enjoy. :)
(And about the name...MT does not stand for Montana, or 'My Thoughts' or any such silliness. It stands for ManaTrigger. Once upon a time, my best friend and I created a fansite for Secret of Mana and Chrono Trigger. The site, though (miraculously) still live, hasn't been touched in several years. I guess I wanted to carry on the MT brand/name/spirit.)

Before Sex Scandal, John Edwards was Darling of Women's Rights Movement
Former Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards made headlines during his 2008
presidential campaign for gaining the confidence – and the cash — of women's rights advocates across the country. Now, attention focuses on his new admission of personal transgressions; Edwards fathered a child with his former mistress and campaign videographer.
The women's issues lobby, which consists of individuals and organizations committed to promoting women's rights and interests, contributed $352,000 to Edwards' campaign during the 2008 election cycle, according to a Center for Responsive Politics analysis.
This ranked Edwards among the top five recipients of federal political contributions from the women's issues lobby during that time frame, the Center has found. Only presidential candidates Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton — who kept running long after Edwards dropped out — as well as U.S. Senate candidates Jeanne Shaheen and Kay Hagan, eclipsed Edwards' total.
As a result, these copious donations solidified the women's issues lobby among Edwards' top 10 contributing industries during his 2008 campaign — the Center for Responsive Politics tracks the contributions of 121 separate industries and special interest areas.
Frances Kissling, founding president of the National Abortion Federation and instrumental in the women's rights movement, is just one of many woman who chose to back Edwards both publicly and in the form of political donations.
"I'm a lifelong feminist activist. In this crucial election, I am supporting John Edwards, whose economic policies I think will best serve women" she stated in an article for Salon.com in January 2008.
Now, she believes his "behavior and lying is so egregious" that she would not support
him for public office.
"The denial of the affair is disturbing. The denial of pregnancy is disturbing," Kissling told Capital Eye in a phone interview. "[The affair] definitely affects women's views of him as a person and as someone they could support in politics."
Kissling remembers how before his run for the presidency, women's rights activists supported Edwards for his record on women's issues as a U.S. senator. Now, she says, "I would consider him to have serious flaws in terms of moral behavior and honesty."
Throughout his campaign, Edwards gained the confidence of women's rights activists who supported him over Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton.
For example, Kate Michelman, former president of NARAL Pro-Choice America, was one of those women attracted to Edwards' campaign positions. Instead of supporting Clinton, Michelman became Edwards' senior adviser.
"I believe in John's deep and profound commitment to the issues that matter most in women's lives," Michelman, who could not be reached for comment, said in a statement during the presidential campaign. "[I] know John is the most effective national messenger for the values we share and I have complete confidence that — with our help — he will win the White House and improve the lives of women everywhere."
And Edwards' wife, Elizabeth, was instrumental in creating a "Women for Edwards" movement. This group organized and mobilized women won over by his "Agenda for American Women," which focused on promoting women's equality, health and economic security.
Edwards also appealed to women who agreed with his emphasis on moral values.
"All of us need to send an unambiguous message to the young people in our communities. We need to clearly say that it is wrong when young men father children but do not support them," Edwards wrote in 2007 book "Ending Poverty in America."
Additionally, Edwards, along with dozens of other leading Democrats, was a signatory to the Hyde Park Declaration in 2000. The declaration stated in part that in order "to strengthen families, we must redouble efforts to reduce out-of-wedlock pregnancies."
Edwards first acknowledged an extramarital affair with campaign videographer Rielle Hunter in the summer of 2008, months after he pulled out of the presidential race.
Then in January, after publicly denying it for months, Edwards confirmed that he is the father of Hunter's young daughter, Quinn. Edwards and his wife Elizabeth, a breast cancer patient who stayed by her husband's side when he originally acknowledged the affair, have since separated in the wake of this newest development.
Rumors, from the debatable to the downright absurd, have surrounded Edwards since his announcement.
Former aide Andrew Young recently published "The Politician: An Insider's Account of John Edwards's Pursuit of the Presidency and the Scandal That Brought Him Down," a book chronicling Edwards' private life now made public.
Edwards, a lawyer, is also accused of using campaign contributions from individuals and organizations to pay Hunter for her campaign work. A federal investigation is underway.
If it is found that Edwards used campaign contributions for personal purposes, he could be charged with a federal crime.

If you have severe debt, you may be eligible to enroll in a Debt Management Plan (DMP). A DMP is a systematic way to pay down your outstanding debt through monthly payments to your credit counseling agency, who will then distribute these funds to your creditors. By participating in this debt management program you may benefit from reduced or waived finance charges, fees, and fewer collection calls. When you have completed your payments it may help you reestablish credit.
It takes approximately 36-60 months to repay debts through a debt management plan. Your accounts with creditors will always be credited with 100 percent of the amount you pay through an NFCC member agency. Debt management programs serve the dual role of helping you repay your debts while creditors receive the money owed to them.
For those with considerable debt problems, a financial counseling session is an effective first step to help you manage your finances better, and if appropriate, entering into a Debt Management Plan can start you on the road to a financially stable, debt-free life.
A DMP sets up a payment schedule for you to repay your debts. By voluntary agreement you deposit funds with your credit counseling agency each month. They send those funds directly to your creditors. If collectors call, you can ask them to contact the agency you are working with.
You may also receive a reduction or waiver in finance and/or other charges. When you have completed your payments the agency will assist you in reestablishing credit.
DMP serves the dual role of:
Your participation in a DMP may change information that is already on your credit report. If your credit report reflects that you have paid creditors as agreed in the past, a DMP could have a negative impact on a creditworthiness decision by a potential creditor, landlord, or employer because it is an indicator that you are or have experienced financial difficulties.
In addition, creditors may report that you are on a DMP and are not paying as originally agreed although they have accepted the reduced payment. Creditors have different credit reporting policies, and a Certified Consumer Credit Counselor can answer your questions about the possible effect on your credit rating.
But remember, the goal of the DMP is to develop a plan to ultimately improve your financial and credit standing.
No. As a rule, your creditors will close or suspend your lines of credit. In limited cases (for example if your employer requires you to travel) one credit card may be maintained.
When you complete the DMP some creditors may reestablish your credit based on your current ability to pay and your payment history while enrolled in the plan.
Your Certified Consumer Credit Counselor will be able to tell you if any of your creditors will consider stopping interest charges. However, the majority of creditors do not stop interest, but many lower the interest.
For the most effective and equitable treatment of your debts we need to include all debts in your DMP.

WEST POINT, N.Y. -- With attendees in the stand to cheer him on, Former President George W. Bush arrived at the United States. Military Academy at West Point to receive a prestigious award, but not before the award parade. The Corp of Cadets is 4,400 strong as a way to welcome former President George W. Bush to West Point.
The Thayer Award is given to an American who exemplifies West Point's motto of "duty, honor, country."
Bush is this year's recipient for his ongoing public policy work through the George W. Bush Institute, and his time as commander-in-chief after 9/11, creating the Department of Homeland Security, and efforts to remove Saddam Hussein from power.
"In the aftermath of those horrific attacks, our President George W. Bush, would rally us as a nation and lead us as we confronted a new kind of evil and threat. One that attacked us not for our land or our wealth, but because of our ideals and because of our freedom," said United States Military Academy at West Point Superintendent Lt. General Robert Caslen.
And while the ceremony was to honor the former president, he didn't talk about himself so much as his pride in the military and optimism for the future.
"Because I've looked into the faces of our future leaders. Men and women who will promote our Democratic values and our way of life, through their actions and example. Men and women who will live by the words duty, honor, and country. I'm honored to be in your midst, I am proud to receive the Thayer Award," said Thayer Award recipient George W. Bush.
Bush is the fourth president to receive the honor, alongside Dwight Eisenhower, Ronald Regan, and his father George H.W. Bush.

THE PROGRAM on Community Empowerment through Food Sufficiency and Environmental Management (CEFSEM)
The program is in partnership with the United Nation – World Food Programme (UN-WFP).
It was a pilot project that targeted only two municipalities in Central Mindanao – both in the province of Maguindanao such as Sultan Mastura and Sharif Saidona Mustapha. It was to complement to and support the existing programs of BDA with UNICEF and JICA in the area respectively such as Early Child Care Development (ECCD) – Tahderiyya Program, Child Protection (CPC) Program and Community Development in Conflict Affected Areas in Mindanao (CD-CAAM) Program.
The project was started on March 01, 2013 and ended on April 30, 2014. It was implemented through Food for Assets (FFA) component of WFP which means paying workers with food to start building a hunger-free future for their communities specifically through Food for Work (FFW) and Food for Training (FFT).
Generally, the goal of the program is to consolidate the livelihood recovery of the targeted communities in regards to food-insecurity due to conflict and to increase their resilience to shocks with a view to contributing to peace building. Moreover, it is a capacity building for BDA on delivering Food Assistance Programs.

Somehow, the original French title of this romantic melodrama is so much more poetic than its English title, Illegitimate Child. The plot spans the years 1910 to 1927, as seen through the eyes of a celebrated stage actress. In the early portions of the story, the heroine is the secret mistress of a rising politician, bearing him a son. Realizing that she will ruin her lover's career if she reveals that she is the mother of the baby, she agrees to tell no one. Seventeen years later, the son has grown up to become a star newspaper reporter, dedicating himself to destroying the politician's career -- never dreaming that he is targeting his own father. Though her lover has long since deserted her, the actress comes forth to persuade her son to cease his vitriolic newspaper campaign. The fact that she is still faithful to him despite his callous behavior forces the politician to rethink his priorities, whereupon he finally proposes marriage to her.

Hoping to inspire and encourage those interested in drawing or painting to have-a-go.
Friday, 12 February 2016
If at first ...
You may remember that just before Christmas I produced a pencil portrait of my father. Though I was fairly pleased with it, there were a few things about the drawing that have always bothered me. Nothing that stops me thinking it's a good portrait and a good likeness, but just little things that maybe only I would notice. These things have been niggling at me and causing me to think I could, and should, have done better. So here is my second attempt .... "Dad 2".
16 comments:
This portrait is absolutely outstanding John!! It looks like a photo... Sometimes I have to walk away from a portrait because "something" was off....so I can understand why you had to do another painting....you see things that only you know is not right! Again, I LOVE this portrait.ReplyDeleteReplies
You're right that we see things no one else would notice Hilda. I'm the worlds worst at that. Thanks for your lovely comment.Delete
This looks perfekt! Like a photo. ☺ReplyDeleteReplies
You're very kind Catharina, thank you.Delete
John, a terrific job on this portrait of your father. What I love about it, he looks as though he was a very kind man. Well done.ReplyDeleteReplies
He was indeed a very kind man Joan, and thank you very much for saying that has come through in the drawing.Delete
Wow, fantastic job, John!ReplyDeleteReplies

We can now decisively say that two of the mega LBOs (leveraged buyouts) that took place from 2005-2007 were a success.
We can now decisively say that two of the mega LBOs (leveraged buyouts) that took place from 2005-2007 were a success.
With its plan to pay a dividend of $2 billion to its private equity owners, it is clear that the $33 billion leveraged buyout of Hospital Corporation of America (HCA), having already paid its backers 85 percent of their equity investment in dividends ($4.25 billion this year) without having sold a sliver of new equity, will generate the kind of returns often promised when these deals are announced, but rarely delivered once they are completed.
HCA joins Kinder Morgan as a rare win from the bubble period that produced a slew of the biggest go-private transactions in financial history, many of which will generate slim returns for their private equity backers once they can create an exit.
Of course, the backers of HCA—Kohlberg Kravis Roberts and Bain Capital—have yet to create an exit, though they have used the generous high-yield market to finance a return of capital without the use of an IPO (initial public offering).
Next year may well bring that IPO and the next few years will likely see the sale of billions more in stock as the total return on this deal climbs the charts.
You can bet with the copious amounts of money available in a generous high-yield market that private equity firms are looking at HCA's returns and imagining what they could do with the return of some big deals.
These days, most PE deals are staying under $5 billion, a far cry from the size of HCA. And while we may never see deals the size of HCA, Kinder Morgan and TXU again, don't be surprised to see the numbers soon head northward. Nothing helps confidence like a deal gone good.

In a note to investors this morning, SolarCity (NASDAQ:SCTY.DL) said it would be reallocating some overhead expenses and that while the change will affect its 2013 and 2012 GAAP financial statements, it won't have any impact on future financials. Importantly, SolarCity said its total overhead expenses will not change, and the reallocation of costs will not affect the company's net cash flows .
The company, which installs solar panels and helps customers finance them, currently has a cash balance of $577.1 million.
SolarCity said it found an error in the formula it used to allocate overhead expenses between the solar energy systems it sells outright to customers versus the solar energy systems on which it retains ongoing operating leases. Although the error has no impact on the total amount of money spent in overhead expenses, it will require downward adjustments for the balance-sheet line item for Systems Leased and to Be Leased. SolarCity also expects to raise its cost-of-sales line item for Solar Energy Systems Sales for the nine months ending Sept. 30, 2013, as well as for the full 2012 year.
SolarCity said its guidance for fiscal 2014 will remain unchanged. For the year ahead, SolarCity expects 475 MW to 525 MW deployed, and positive net cash flow. The company is expected to submit its amended results to the Securities and Exchange Commission by March 18.
SolarCity released preliminary results last week but delayed full earnings results to address matters including the overhead allocation.

Its also a wrap on my journal that I was finishing up.....
The last page of the journal is always just a recap....whats going on, and it is always nice to come back and revisit these pages.
Oh yeah- I know what you mean. I am also a teacher and this 2 weeks off I have hardly done much of anything compared to what I'd do during 2 weeks when I'm working. Why is that?
Great page with your word. Great word too, says a lot about the richness of your life. You must be blessed or lucky or both.
Great word!
Well done for retiring your last journal :) Always a nice feeling as is a lovely new journal :)

Abundance is a great word and your page is lovely. My word is JOY! I'm going to do a journal specially for joy too. I'm sure you needed 2 weeks rest to get over the busy term and now you'll have lots of super energy to get all those things done :) Wishing you abundant blessings in the coming year.
Do we ever get done all we think we should :-) Congrats on finishing your journal, and here's to a fresh new start
I just love looking at all the pages of your journal bundled up together like this..so pretty and colorful. Happy new year!
Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by and saying hello. It will be back to work on Monday for me also after a two week break so you can bet I will be playing with paint all day tomorrow ;)..Looking forward to seeing more of your journals!!!

what good habit do you wish you'd started earlier? Since I really like themes, every morning I decide what I am going to focus on that day. Some days are productive days, some are laid-back days, some are fun days and some are all about love. For me, its like writing my own horoscope every morning.
what concerns do you have with the future?Partner. I am more than a wife I am a partner with my husband. We are partners in life, sharing experiences and supporting each other. We are partners in business, working to grow our company. We are partners in marriage, understanding that we each make the other better.
what do you most enjoy about traveling?Wyoming is the true west and the epitome of American-ness. This is the picture perfect place to unwind and get away from it all. While visiting you will see shotguns as truck accessories, experience the Wyoming wave and never have to worry about roadside assistance, because in Wyoming, everyone stops.
what do you like most about your age?Dont compare yourself to your competition. Pageants are all about creating the best you. There will always be someone with qualities you wish you possessed, but use the pageant as an opportunity to find out what makes you special and unique.

The capital of New Jersey is Trenton, located in the western-central part of state in Mercer County. Trenton rests along the Delaware River, just more than 60 miles from New York City. As of 2014, the city has a population of about 85,000, making it the seventh-largest in the state.
The area that became known as Trenton was first settled in 1679 by Quakers who came to the region to escape religious persecution in England. The city became the state capital in 1790 and was incorporated two years later. The motto "Trenton Makes, The World Takes" is still displayed prominently across the city's Lower Free Bridge in reference to the city's major manufacturing presence in the late-19th and early-20th century. Today, the State of New Jersey is Trenton's largest employer, bringing in more than 20,000 workers daily from the city and surrounding suburbs.

This article is a collaboration between MedPage Today® and:
PHILADELPHIA -- The investigational antifungal agent isavuconazole proved equal to voriconazole (Vfend) in patients with neutropenia, researchers reported here.
In the SECURE trial, there was a 21% mortality during the 42-day study period and a 21% mortality among patients treated with voriconazole, according to Thomas Patterson, MD, of the University of Texas at San Antonio, and colleagues.
Additionally, the agent -- designated as a Qualified Infectious Disease Product by the FDA -- appeared to have fewer treatment-related adverse effects, they reported at the annual IDWeek conference.
Patterson also noted that 43% of patients in the safety arm of the study who experienced neutropenia also were observed to have treatment-emergent adverse events compared with 58% of voriconazole patients, a difference that achieved statistical significance (P<0.05).
The adverse events' profile persisted for those patients with invasive fungal disease who did not experience neutropenia. Patterson said 42% of isavuconazole patients in this group experience treatment-emergent adverse events compared with 64% of voriconazole-treated patients, which was also statistically significant (P<0.05).
About 43% of non-neutropenic isavuconazole patients experienced serious treatment-related adverse effect compared with about 62% of voriconazole patients (P<0.05). About 13% of isavuconazole non-neutropenic patients discontinued treatment due to side effects versus 26% of patients on the voriconazole treatment regimen (P>0.05).
"We thought it was important in the SECURE trial to look at outcomes in neutropenia because it is one of the major risk factors for mortality in patients with invasive aspergillosis and mold disease, especially among those patients who have unresolved neutropenia in the course of the study," Patterson told MedPage Today.
"By looking at this subgroup analysis we were able to show that isavuconazole and voriconazole had similar activity in this setting, establishing, I think, that isavuconazole could be used as an alternative agent in those patients with neutropenia and even those with unresolved neutropenia with invasive mold disease," he said.
The phase III, multicenter, randomized SECURE trial enrolled 527 adult patients who were diagnosed with proven, probable, or possible invasive fungal disease or other filamentous fungi. The primary endpoint was mortality at 42 days, but the patients were also followed for an additional 28 days for assessments of end of treatment overall success.
Patients were treated three times a day with isavuconazole for 2 days as a loading dose and then once a day after that. The drug can be given for 8 weeks, but it was administered for 6 weeks in SECURE. The drug can be given intravenously or orally.
"These patients had hematologic malignancies or were undergoing bone marrow transplant," he said, adding that other patients with immunosuppressive conditions were included.
In the patients who had neutropenia at baseline as their primary risk factor, the outcomes between the two drugs were similar for the primary endpoint of all-cause mortality at day 42, he said.
"This phase III study has been concluded," Patterson said. "It has been filed with the FDA for an indication for treating invasive mold disease. The drug will be reviewed by the FDA in March 2015."
"I think we know that we need more options. Patients need additional agents to combat invasive fungal infections," Patterson said. "This drug has the advantage of covering aspergillus or other molds and has pharmacokinetic characteristics that allow it to be used by intravenous route or orally in that setting."
In the neutropenic substudy, patients were about 50-years-old and more than half were men. Almost all the patients were being treated for a baseline hematological malignancy or bone marrow transplants.
For the primary endpoint of all-cause mortality at 42 days, there was no difference in outcome, Patterson reported. He illustrated that in the intention-to-treat neutropenic population, 21% of the patients on isavuconazole died and 21% of the voriconazole patients died. In the modified intention-to-treat analysis, 25% of 88 patients assigned to isavuconazole died compared with 23% of the 73 voriconazole patients die during the study period.
In the non-neutropenic intention-to-treat analysis, 11% of patients on isavuconazole died compared with 23% of the voriconazole patients, but that numerical advantage was not statistically significant.
In the secondary endpoint for end of treatment response, there were no statistically significant differences among patients who were neutropenic, who had unresolved neutropenia, who had resolved neutropenia, or who had non-neutropenic invasive disease.
In commenting on the study, Luis Ostrosky-Zeichner, MD, professor of medicine at the University of Texas Health Science Center in Houston, told MedPage Today that "there is a right drug for each patient so there is a need for additional options. These studies indicate that isavuconazole is at least as good as treatment with voriconazole and there are apparently fewer adverse events.
"The cost of new drugs can be an issue in their use, but clinicians are first going to consider the drug's efficacy. Then they will look at the safety of it and then comes the consideration of costs. But pricing of the drug will be important," he said.
The study was sponsored by Astellas.
Patterson disclosed relevant relationships with Astellas, Merck, Toyama, Scynexis, and Viamet.
One or more co-authors disclosed relevant relationships with Pfizer, Astellas, and Basilea. Some co-authors are Astellas employees.
Ostrosky-Zeichner disclosed relevant relationships with Astellas, Merck, and Pfizer.

The Mask HD is the first rimfire can from Dead Air Armament. It is full auto rated for a variety of 17 and 22 caliber rimfire as well as 5.7x28FN.
Most shooters comment on its pleasant, deep tone. However, I was most impressed with its performance on my FVSR. Nearly as quiet as a dryfire, the Mask HD had negligible POI shift or impact on the size of my groups.

Happy New Year everyone! I know, I'm like a week late on that one- but it's still 2013 right?! And seeing as I haven't posted this year, Happy New Year! I hope you all had fabulous holiday seasons filled with laughter and love and you are thoroughly enjoying this new year! I definitely had a good time over the holidays, probably a little bit too good of a time! Time to get back to reality and detox a bit. Speaking of reality, I am officially full time in our new house in Panama City, FL! Woo hoo! This is the first blog post I have EVER written in my own house. Isn't that crazy?! I started the blog when my hubby was deployed and I was living with my mom, continued it at my friends home in Arkansas, even wrote a post staying with my husband's family in Chicago- but I have never written from my own home! This week has been the first week we have been settled (sort of) in a home of our own since April 2012. Can not tell you how thankful I am for this house! The first morning back from the holidays we didn't have any food in the house but I managed to make some tea & oatmeal for the hubbs & I and fed the dogs, we were all eating breakfast together and it was just so deliciously NORMAL. Mind you, we had no furniture at that particular point and the house was basically empty, but just being in that moment with my little family felt so amazing. I had nearly forgotten what that was like. :)
The entire time we've been here I've been wanting to blog- and I even made 2 new recipes last week (this one being the first), we just have been so crazy busy I didn't have a moment to sit until today. So MY new year's resolution is to get back into blog mode. I have a notebook of all my recipe ideas and my adorable husband is the best guinea pig out there, so watch out world! We are still trying to keep things as paleo as possible- no wheat, no processed foods, just real foods- but I won't lie to you we both still eat a little bit of dairy. I've found that dairy in small amounts really doesn't affect me, but if I sit down and eat a bowl of ice cream I WILL be sick. A tablespoon of heavy cream in my morning coffee, okay- a scoop of sugary milky ice cream? Sick. If you are trying to be strict paleo feel free to cut the dairy out of any given recipe, this one for example makes a fabulous crispy seasoned chicken tender- you don't have to make the buffalo sauce (which contains butter).
OKAY so buffalo chicken. I love buffalo chicken. I love it when I'm watching football, and I really love it for a weeknight meal because these tenders are EASY. Real easy. They are gluten- free, wheat-free, but not quite dairy free. We use grass-fed butter (KerryGold) feel free to omit the buffalo sauce all together or just use straight up hot sauce if you like spicy! These will DEFINITELY be making an appearance at our Super Bowl party and probably rank pretty high in our weekly dinner menu rotation- my husband LOVED them. And so did I!
About 1/2 Cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil (or enough to be about an inch deep in your skillet)
8-12 Chicken Tenderloins, or a couple of chicken breasts cut into strips
2 Eggs, whisked
1 Cup Almond Flour
1 tsp. garlic powder
1 tsp. onion powder
1 tsp. seasoned salt
1 tsp. chili powder
1/2 tsp. oregano
1/4 tsp. cracked black pepper
1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper
For the Buffalo Sauce: (This makes a very MILD sauce, if you like it spicier increase hot sauce to 1/2 Cup)
1/4 Cup Unsalted Butter
1/4 Cup Frank's Red Hot Sauce
Step 1: Add olive oil to your frying skillet of choice, I used my cast iron skillet because I feel like it holds even heat the best. Make sure you have enough to be about an inch deep in the skillet. Heat oil to medium- high heat.
Step 2: In a pie pan or shallow dish whisk together your eggs. (I doubled this recipe for company when I made it, that's why it looks like more than 2 eggs!)
Step 3: In a 2nd pie pan or shallow dish whisk together the almond flour, garlic powder, onion powder, seasoned salt, chili powder, oregano, black pepper, and cayenne pepper.
Step 4: Set yourself up a little breading station: Egg- almond flour mix- skillet.
Step 5: When oil is hot enough (put a wooden spoon in and it'll bubble around it) start breading your chicken. First dip in the egg, coating both sides and then shaking off the excess:
Then into the almond flour mixture, breading both sides and shaking off excess:
Then into the skillet:
Step 6: Repeat with remaining tenders, being careful not to over-crowd the skillet.
Step 7: Cook 4-5 minutes per side, or until tenders are golden brown and cooked through. Drain on a paper towel lined plate. If you are making a large batch, like I was, transfer to a cookie sheet and keep warm in a 300 degree oven until you are ready to dip them in the sauce.
Step 8: For the buffalo sauce: Place butter and hot sauce into a microwave safe dish that is big enough to dip the tenders into. Microwave on high for 1 minute or until the butter is melted, stir to combine.
Step 9: Dip cooked chicken tenders into the buffalo sauce, gently (I used tongs) coat both sides with sauce mixture.

Great recipe. Even if you don't like buffalo sauce the "breading" here is very flavorful on its own.ReplyDeleteReplies
Thanks! The breading is really good, I make them sometimes just as "chicken fingers" for my hubbs without the sauce! Just as good :)Delete
I just finished making the chicken tenders and they taste so good. I haven't even put the sauce on them yet. Great recipe!ReplyDelete

In the course of trying to track down a problem running the application i'm involved in developing at the moment, I stumbled across the following article describing what SQL Server does with file permissions when it attaches to a database file.
The article states that for security reasons it changes the file permissions so that if a file has been placed in an insecure folder, then it attempts to protect it from someone without the privileges from moving or deleting it.
It seems to me to be a little mis-guided. Firstly, I would assume that it's the responsibility of the DBA, to place all database files in an appropriate place with appropriate permissions to the various users that require access. The secure by default paradigm is all well & good, but there is no way to turn this behavior off. Secondly, it doesn't really achieve anything. If a DBA has been dumb enough to place a vitally important database file in a folder that anyone has full control over, then if SQL Server is not attached, the user can easily cut & paste the folder wherever they want which will have the same effect as moving the original file.
Maybe i'm not seeing something here, I can't really see the need for this.

Oil on canvas painting of the historic building "Vista House", located on a stunning promontory overlooking the Columbia River Gorge, 18" by 28" (24" by 34" framed), signed at lower left "M. Bixler" and dated there 1920. The view was apparently painted just a few years after the building was dedicated in the year 1917. Nearly a century later, it remains an historic landmark and regional architectural and scenic treasure, now even more spectacular than it was in its youth, after a recent top-down renovation and preservation project was completed. The artist does not appear to have a listing, though focused research will doubtless turn up some information. Presently the painting is stable, clean and ready to hang, as it apparently underwent a renovation/preservation of its own, the work having been relined not long ago. There is a tiny disturbed area, not really a puncture, at right center. The frame is not especially complementary; a silvery frame might really enhance the presentation.

Arizona lemon growers with fruit to sell during the just ended fall-winter harvest season received phenomenal financial returns – "one of the best years ever" – says rural appraiser Scott Halver of the Ganado Group, Inc.
"The net returns per field box (about 76 pounds) for Yuma-grown lemons this season were $12-$15 per box," said Halver who has tracked the Arizona citrus industry for 25 years.
He says Arizona lemon growers can make a small profit at $3 per field box. Add another $9 or more return per box and the grower can receive an extra $9 or more to bank or reinvest in the orchard.
"This season we had good yields and phenomenal prices for those growers who had product to sell," Halver said.
He discussed Arizona citrus during the 19th annual Arizona Ag Forum held in Tempe, Ariz. this spring, sponsored by the Arizona Chapter of the American Society of Farm Managers and Rural Appraisers (ASFMRA).
Why the surge in lemon prices? Supply and demand.
On the supply side, there are about 5,000 fewer acres of lemons grown in low-desert areas including Yuma and Phoenix, largely tied to urban development which has uprooted groves to plant subdivisions and retail.
In addition, lemon production fell in the Yuma area from two catastrophic freezes over the last five years – the coldest winter weather in 30-40 years. Some lemon groves suffered major crop losses and tree damage while others were slightly damaged. In some cases, the difference between the two extremes was only a couple of miles.
Meanwhile, consumer demand for lemons has remained strong.
Desert lemons, wine grapes
As with the lemon growing areas in California and Mexico, the Arizona lemon industry has a niche time frame to bring citrus to the market to gain the best prices - late August through early November in the desert.
Yuma lemons are grown for the fresh market destined for grocery stores.
U.S. lemon acreage totaled about 55,000 acres in 2012-2013. Back in the mid 1970's, Arizona lemon production covered about 16,000 acres, and has fallen to about 11,000 acres today. About 75 percent of the state's lemon crop is grown in Yuma County.
Halver was one of a dozen speakers at the ASFMRA event discussing how specific commodities fared in Arizona in 2013 and trends in farmland prices and rental rates.
Another crop which fared well last year in Arizona was wine grapes. Vine plantings are hot in the high desert areas, including Cochise County – the southeastern most county which borders New Mexico and Mexico.
"Wine intelligent people are coming here," chuckled Mark Finley of Finley Appraisal Services, Willcox (Cochise County). "The majority of the people getting in the wine grape business here know what they are doing."
Finley says grape folks have studied the environmental factors of the area - the hours of sunlight, the average mean temperature, the length of the dry season, rainfall, soil acidity, and others.
"They say these components match up to some of the best wine growing regions in France and Italy," Finley said.
An Arizona grape industry source estimates statewide vineyard acreage at about 1,000 acres, and growing.
Traditionally, Cochise County producers grow alfalfa, cotton, vegetables, and grain. In recent years, thousands of acres of pistachio trees have taken root. Finley says those buying ground for pistachios include investor groups from California; many tied to the medical field.
"People here say the pistachios grown in this area taste as good as or even better than pistachios grown in California," Finley said. "In addition, the production costs here are lower."
More alfalfa, less cotton ground
Looking at other Arizona commodity trends, farm appraiser Shawn Wood of Western AgAdvisors, Buckeye, shared a lackluster outlook for cotton acreage this year due to two major factors – changes made in the new federal farm law's cotton provision and increasing alfalfa acreage in the Grand Canyon State.
"Cotton doesn't rise to the top this year," Wood told the group.
She cited lower profit margins for cotton compared to alfalfa where prices continue to increase due to a strengthening western dairy industry linked to surging milk prices.
Wood says several valleys in the state are 80-percent planted in new alfalfa. Some growers pulled out 3-4 year-old alfalfa stands, decided against crop rotation, and planted alfalfa again.
Speaking of dairy, Tom Van Hofwegen of Farm Credit Services Southwest, Tempe, shared a bullish forecast for the Arizona dairy industry. Milk prices have risen since the second half of last year due to world production issues and a global powdered milk shortage.
"2014 is expected to be a very good year for the dairy industry," said Van Hofwegen whose own family milks cows. "Obviously it will be a cyclical situation but we hope it lasts a long time."
On the Arizona crop land sale and rental prices forefront, the overall message from regional rural appraisers was prices for crop land are stable but increasing across the southern half of the state.
Land and rent prices in the greater Phoenix area are higher tied to urban development. Water costs are headed north.
"Most Maricopa County farm land is priced at levels that cannot be supported solely by ag production," said Charlie Havranek, broker and appraiser with Southwest Land Associates.
Yuma land-rent prices
Land prices and rents are also edging higher in Yuma County and neighboring Imperial County, Calif. where about 80 percent of the nation's supply of winter vegetables are grown.
"There are parties actively looking for produce land," said Bill Moody of Robert J. Moody Appraisers, Yuma. "There is a lot of activity and land prices are trending upward."
He added, "Produce drives the market in the Yuma area."
Winter produce growers had a very good fall-winter season in terms of crop production but horrible consumer demand. Severe cold weather in the East and Upper Midwest greatly reduced consumers' appetites for salads.
"No one wants to eat salad when it's cold out," Moody said. "The local term is they go for 'soup over salad' so fewer people bought fresh produce."
In the North and South Gila valleys – about 8,000 acres total - land prices are also trending higher.
"In 2012, several farms in these valleys (good produce ground) sold for about $32,000 per acre," the appraiser said. "I am aware of cash rents as high as $850 and trending higher. These valleys are an absolute place where produce people want to farm."
In neighboring Bard Valley, Calif. (Imperial County), land prices for Medjool date palm trees can run $50,000 - $100,000 per acre, depending on the age and condition of the trees.
Moody said, "Date fruit can be very profitable but it's a long-term investment."
In 2008, Moody says a 10-acre date palm tree parcel sold for $130,000 per acre with the trees later sold for landscaping. The demand for ornamental date palm trees fell substantially with the economic recession.

So this month during my lacking of blogging stage I started two courses. On the 12th May I started a Gel Nail beginner class which ran over 3 days, I successfully passed my exam and now a qualifed gel nail technician, yay! On the 14th my sister and I started a Professional Makeup Artistry course, it runs over 14 weeks and we recieve a Diploma after our exams. Soooo exciting! I have never done any makeup course before but I have a great passion for it, I will do a few blog posts on some tips and tricks I learned. Anyway, that's just what I have been doing in a nutshell. Now everything is on track, I can get back into the swing of things!
Read on to see my thoughts on these lipglosses!
I'm sure your probably thinking 'another Apocolips post' but I just had to share my thoughts on these two beauties with you! I wasn't too sure on what colours to get because every colour in the Apoolips range are gorgeous, in the end I decided I'd like a nude gloss that I could wear on top of a pink lipstick. As you can see in from the photo it looks like a very pale pink but once it's applied to lip alone it can give the 'foundation lip' look, which is not good! But on top of a nice pink shade it gives a gorgeous rich suttle gloss. If your wearing it on it's own I'd recommend putting a powder on your lips before applying the lipgloss as it doesn't last as long.
Red lipglosses/lipsticks aren't something I always tend to go for, but seeing that Makeup Artistry is the career I want to pursue in I'm going to have to explore. I had got Lady Danger from Mac, I know everybody loves this lipstick but personally on me I thought it was too orangey and nothing for me whatsoever. In the photo this lipglosses looks dark pink but it's just the bad lighting, I'm a terrible photographer! I am craaaazy about this colour! It is a very rich red that really stands out with a high gloss on top. Once I tried it on I didn't want to take it off. If your a red lipstick lover, you need to get this! The good thing about this lipgloss it's hard to take off,so it will last a few hours without the need to top up.
So expect a lot more makeup product reviews and looks here as I'm going to experimenting loads to try figure out what works best for me as a makeup artist and what products I'd like to have in my kit. My last post I did a May wishlist and from that post I mentioned I wanted the Stila In the Light palette, luckily for me it was in stock online and I got my hands on it! I will do a blog post about it sometime next week.
Enjoy your weekend!

In a statement filed in Santa Barbara County Superior Court, the 48-year-old actor's former chef James Maclear has stated that the actor's former nanny Jessica Gibson had an 'overtly flirtatious manner' and within hours of meeting her had changed into hot pants and was laying on the kitchen floor with her legs open in a very suggestive manner." He also said Gibson aggressively pursued him, at one stage telling him 'she was very horny' - even though he told her he had a girlfriend.
Lowe's tennis instructor Nigel Armstrong also said that Gibson came onto him - even though he was 48 and she was 22, reports Daily Telegraph. In the documents, Armstrong stated, "Jessica was standing in the kitchenette and had taken off her pants and underwear and invited me to have sex even though the boys were in the general area." He also claimed that in the presence of the Lowe children, Jessica tried to 'kiss me and make out.'
In her lawsuit, Gibson has claimed that Lowe had placed his hand inside Gibson's pants several times from about September 2005 to around January 2008. According to TMZ.com, Gibson said that Lowe repeatedly asked her to touch him, showed her pornographic images on his computer and asked her to give him a massage and tell him dirty stories.

First look at Wes Anderson's Moonrise Kingdom; Edward Norton in a scouts uniform
The first look for Wes Anderson's MOONRISE KINGDOM is actually a bunch of set photos taken by a TheSocialSwan over at the IMDB boards.
What you will observe below is a camp, Edward Norton in a scouts uniform, and Bill Murray with some young lads who probably weren't even a twinkle in their father's eyes when GHOSTBUSTERS came out. Also, Harvey Keitel has been confirmed for the flick.
The story of MOONRISE KINGDOM goes like this, "Newwcomers Jared Gilman and Kara Hayward, star as a young boy and girl falling love. They run away together and a search commences for them in a 1960s New England coastal town." More than 300 boy scouts are apart of that search. Rumor has it that the film is due out in 2012.
Check out the pics below. To see a couple more head here.
|Extra Tidbit:
|Every single time I write Bill Murray's first name, it always comes out as "Billy Murray".
