WEST HARTFORD, Conn. – Regis College could not close out its first match of the day against host St. Joseph, eventually losing to the Blue Jays, 3-2 (17-25, 20-25, 26-24, 26-24, 15-12), before also falling to Emmanuel College, 3-0 (25-21, 25-14, 25-21), Saturday in Great Northeast Athletic Conference women's volleyball contests at the O'Connell Center.
Katryna Veasey (Quincy, Mass.) notched another double-double with a team-high 19 kills along with 14 digs, plus she earned three service aces. Rachel Bartels (Edinburg, Texas) finished with 10 kills, Lauren Butt (Topsfield, Mass.) hit .381 as she contributed nine kills and seven total blocks, and Mica van der Meulen (Colorado Springs, Colo.) dished out a season-high 29 assists. Defensively, Julia Pelland (Brockton, Mass.) added five total blocks, and Caroline Fuentes (Downey, Calif.) led the Pride with 18 digs.
After losing the first point of the match, Regis scored the next six points, including two service aces by Emma Morales Cestero (San Juan, Puerto Rico), to open a 6-1 advantage. The Pride extended their lead thanks to a 7-2 scoring run and eventually pulled ahead by double digits, 20-10. The Blue Jays closed to within six, but Regis held them off, winning the first set on a service error by the home team.
Butt earned two kills and a solo block as Regis took the first six points of the second set, but St. Joseph rallied back, outscoring the Pride 16-5 to take a 17-12 lead. Regis answered right back, closing out the second set with a 12-2 scoring run, led by Veasey with five kills, a block assist, and two service aces for the final two points of the set.
St. Joseph (11-14, 2-9 GNAC) scored four of the first five points of the third set to take the early lead. Down by five after a kill by Aminah Tsonga, the Pride scored the next five points thanks to two kills by Veasey and two service aces by Morales Cestero. Later in the set, Veasey earned a kill and a service ace to give the Pride a chance to close out the match, but the Blue Jays held them off by winning the final three points of the set, capped by consecutive service aces by Hannah Benson.
Regis opened a 10-3 lead in the fourth set, but St. Joseph once again battled back, going on a 7-1 scoring run to pull within one at 11-10. After a kill by Samantha Turner (Concord, N.H.) and a block from Pelland and Erin Gallagher (Tyngsboro, Mass.), the Blue Jays scored five straight points to take the lead at 15-13. St. Joseph had two set point chances at 24-22, but a kill by Veasey and a block by Turner and Pelland tied the set at 24-24. However, St. Joseph would win the set on a kill by Tsonga and a service ace by Nina Lestrud.
The Pride again took the early lead in the fifth set by scoring seven of the first eight points, but two kills and a block assist by Benson led the Blue Jay rally to within two at 9-7. After a St. Joseph attack error, the home team recovered, winning eight of the final 10 points of the match, including two more service aces by Lestrud and capped by a kill from Torrie Epps and a service ace by Brenna Miller.
Tsonga led the Blue Jay offense with 15 kills, plus she earned two service aces and 10 digs, while Benson finished with 11 kills, five service aces, and 21 digs. Miller also notched a double-double with 34 assists and 10 digs, Epps contributed 10 kills and four total blocks, and Janell Molina added 14 digs to the winning effort.
Against the Saints, Veasey once again led the Pride offensively with 10 kills and three service aces, plus she earned nine digs. MacKenzie Emco (Sutton, Mass.) finished with seven kills and Pelland added six kills as the setting duties were split between Tori Ondris (Mineola, N.Y.) with 16 assists and Emily Fagundo (Dover, N.H.) with 14 assists. Defensively, van der Meulen led the team with 13 digs.
The first set went back and forth, as there were 15 ties with neither team holding more than a two-point advantage until the 41st point of the set. Down 19-17, Emmanuel closed out the set with an 8-2 scoring run, capped by kills from Marissa Cataldo and Casey Sheehan.
Emmanuel (8-17, 5-6 GNAC) took control of the second set with eight unanswered points, led by three kills from Cataldo and two kills by Alexandra Mezzo. Down set point, Regis extended the set with a kill by Pelland and a Saint attack error, but Emmanuel finally clinched the second set with a kill by Sheehan.
The early part of the third set was close, but the Saints opened a seven-point lead thanks to six straight points, punctuated by a kill and a service ace from Cataldo. Regis rallied with an 8-4 scoring run to close to within three, but Emmanuel finally clinched the set and the match thanks to a kill by Mary Shelow.
Shelow led the Saints with 12 kills, a .458 hitting percentage, two service aces, and three total blocks. Cataldo finished with 11 kills, setter Carly Church notched a double-double with 30 assists and 12 digs, and Katharine Journeay led the defense with 14 digs.
Regis (12-16, 4-8 GNAC) will not qualify for the GNAC Tournament, as Saint Joseph's College defeated Suffolk Saturday to guarantee that eight teams will finish ahead of the Pride in the regular season league standings.

My wife called me in a panic the other day. There was a flood under the kitchen sink. So When I arrived home I found that the drainage pipe was corroded and needed to be replaced. I have lived in this apartment for 5 or 6 years, and this has been replaced at least once since I moved in. Due to the fact that the drainage runs almost horizontally from the strainer to the trap I decided that I would replace it with plastic instead of brass. This should eliminate the potential for the pipe to rot out again.
|Hole clearly seen thru top of drainage elbow.
|The rotted out brass drainage elbow.
|Replaced strainer, tailpipe, and drainage elbows.
|Another view of newly installed plastic drainage piping.
|Not that it was needed, but I replaced the strainer with a plastic strainer

I also replaced the washers inside of the sprayer since there was a small drip

Angkor Thom City :
Angkor Thom city (two miles north of Angkor Wat) is moated walled city that covers nearly four square miles and is laid out in a square and for centuries it was the seat of the Khmer government. The ruins are scattered over this large area. Most of the main temples were built under King Jayavarman VII, who felt Hinduism had failed his kingdom, and thus converted to Buddhism and dedicated his temples to Buddha. Angkor Thom means "Great City."
Temples inside the walls of Angkor Wat include Bayon, Phimeanakas, Baphuon, Terrace of the Elephants, Terrace of the Leper King, Prah Palilay, Tep Pranam and Prasat Suor Prat. Many of the original buildings, such as the king's place, were made of wood and have long since disappeared.
The buildings at Angkor Thom city are not as large or well preserved as those Angkor Wat, but they are still quite impressive all the same. Some people like Angkor Thom city more than Angkor Wat because some of the features are more interesting. Around it is the remnant of a moat (now dry) that was once eight miles long and 300 feet wide and filled with crocodiles to deter attackers. A causeway led to the Terrace of the Elephants, Terrace of the Leper King.
Five gates, which are more or less intact, mark the entrance to the site, The main gate was made with sculptures of 54 gods, one on each side, and the same number of demons on the other. Unfortunately some of the figures have had their heads knocked off by looters. The others are crowned by our massive faces of the bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, so that each face pints n a cardinal direction.
The Site Of Prasat Bayon A Buddhist Sanctuary :
The temple is oriented towards the east, and so its buildings are set back to the west inside enclosures elongated along the east-west axis. Because the temple sits at the exact center of Angkor Thom city, roads lead to it directly from the gates at each of the city's cardinal points. The temple itself has no wall or moats, these being replaced by those of the city itself: the city-temple arrangement, with an area of 9 square kilometers, is much larger than that of Angkor Wat to the south (2 km²). Within the temple itself, there are two galleria enclosures (the third and second enclosures) and an upper terrace (the first enclosure). All of these elements are crowded against each other with little space between. Unlike Angkor Wat, which impresses with the grand scale of its architecture and open spaces, the Bayon "gives the impression of being compressed within a frame which is too tight for it."
Hindu Deities In A Buddhist Temple (Prasat Bayon) :
The Bayon was built as a Buddhist temple. A statue of the main idol, a seated Buddha image sheltered under the hoods of the snake Mucalinda, was discovered in a pit under the main shrine. A few decades after the death of King Jayavarman VII, the temple was turned into a Hindu temple when King Jayavarman VIII reverted the official Khmer religion back to Hinduism, images of the Buddha were destroyed or turned into Hindu images.
Although the Bayon was a Buddhist temple, other Gods were also worshiped. Separate shrines were dedicated to Vishnu and Shiva, while countless other deities were worshiped.
The Bayon is best known for the mysterious faces on its many towers. Due to its many alterations over time, the structure is of a very complicated design and has a cluttered feel, with the many towers and other structures cramping the monument. The Bayon has three enclosures. The galleried 3rd and 2nd enclosure, and the inner enclosure, which contains the 3rd floor platform with the central sanctuary.
Two concentric galleries are sculpted with bas reliefs. The inner galleries contain mainly religious and mythological scenes, while the outer galleries mainly show historical events, battles and scenes from daily life.
At some point the temple was deserted and became overgrown by thick jungle. Clearing of the monument was done in the 1910's. The face towers and the central sanctuary were restored by the EFEO in the 1940's using the anastylosis method. Since the end of the 20th century, the Japanese Government Team for Safeguarding Angkor (JSA) maintains the monument.

Washington, March 15, 2017: Alarmed by the rising incidents of hate crimes with the Indian community in the United States, a new formed public affairs committee in the US has launched a nationwide awareness campaign to highlight how Indian-Americans have been an intrinsic part of the American fabric as part of efforts to prevent hate crimes against the community, reported PTI.
NewsGram brings to you current foreign news from all over the world.
"There is a need to bring understanding about the people of Indian-origin and represent their interests," said Ashwani Dhall, one of the founding members of Indian-American Public Affairs Committee (IAPAC) which was recently formed in Chicago by four eminent Indian-Americans from across the country.
The IAPAC plans to hold town halls and grass root events across the country in a bid to refabricate the brotherhood of both communities. The IAPAC would also ask different cities and state governments to announce Indian-American awareness month.
As part of the campaign, events are being organized in the San Francisco Bay Area, New York, New Jersey, Chicago, Dallas and Seattle.
NewsGram brings to you top news around the world today.
"By bringing together elected officials, local and business leaders and the media, the aim is to assure Indian-American community that incidents like the hate-crime in Kansas City are not tolerated or repeated. Through these events, IAPAC also wants to ensure that correct information about any existing policies is disseminated to people and there is no room left for rumours," the statement from IAPAC read.
While talking with American Bazaar Online, Vinesh Virani, President of IAPAC said, "It was heartening to hear (President Donald) Trump denounce the Kansas City incident right at the start of his address to the Congress".
Check out NewsGram for latest international news updates.
"We have hope that the current administration will work to bring everyone together," he adds said.
IAPAC said it is a bipartisan and grassroots organization of Indian-Americans to advocate and safeguard the India-US relationship and the interests of Indian-Americans.

Diablo 3 – The Biggest Problems With Diablo 3
You might be interested in
Comment (0)
Feel is wrong, remember the rainbow because they didn't want to answer the criticism and honestly it feel like wow game not Diablo, like where's the atmosphere?
Diablo 3 has great story.. WoW.. Nobody said ever..
D3 has the cheapest cringiest story I have ever seen in ANY video games.
Diablo has a AWESOME story.. D3, doesn't.
i think the idea that every legendary has to be useful is not helping in any way.
it seemed dumbed down version of diablo games. it seems easier
it's because they want improvement until its perfect game!!!
The whole idea of Greater Rift is not fun. A timer run with little chance of dying so the only thing that matters is getting more damage.
Diablo 3 devs are very staggered on what to do and don't get much done for the game from what I've seen on the pvp forum off of the Diablo 3 site. One of the moderators on the forum posted an article in there that shows us the problem with pvp, and what the devs think about it. What popped out to me on that post is that their isn't a week they don't think about it, but they don't do anything about it, they just let the problem fester instead of trying to fix it.
I think the devs should experiment with ways to solve the problem and see what the community has to say about what they've done in case there are problems with it. An idea that I have to bring pvp back up from its rotten corpse is to make a league for it that places people in ranks for how good they've done and have it slowly boil down to a championship like football does, but to see who the best pvp players are, just as an experiment. That idea is already a ton more interesting than what we have for pvp right now which is next to nothing. There will obviously be problems with it but the point is that they need to do something about it! You may think my idea is dumb, but it's clearly better than what we have now.
Something that I think is extremely important to mention is that they should not tamper with anything that is already working fine in an attempt to fix a problem unrelated to it. An example I have of this that disappointed me and upset a lot of players is when the devs made some of the skills for different classes weaker in a poor attempt to remove 3-support meta in greater rifts. It merely ended up lowering the greater rift ceiling for it, it didn't even phase it, and it made certain builds for solo players weaker which in turn lowered their variety.
I really hope the devs start approaching the problems with our game the way I suggested, It at least gave me hope when the devs noticed the problems that are there. I've played Diablo 3 a lot and I'm very familiar with the game, I keep up with all of the latest news for it. For now I'm bored with the game but glad they've made an update recently because it shows they're at least doing something.
Lol 666 likes
– Art style of diablo 3 feel weird
– The skill system where you can switch whenever you want your skills make feel like every character are the same. It doesnt feel like this is MY char with MY BUILD.
– The game feel like there is no community.. in diablo 2 you entered bnet and you saw all the character below the chat//channel system, you joinned the game you wanted (Liste of game by name) there was clan channel etc … you was able to see the community
– Auction house was crap but at least they removed it.
– Hardcore mode is broken : disconnection = almost certain dead.
They may have fix some stuff since last time i played.
1 and 2 are the best. i played this so far and i had to download to continue the gameplay what a mess up.
In need for speed most wanted (the old) you could finish the game even with worst cars, since you could spend TON OF MONEY to upgrade and equal a expensive end-game AAA cars. That was so fun and probably resume what this game need, like small gems to improve old set and make it good +20% better than new sets. Would encourage players to kill "low level bosses" for sets and high lvl end-boss to improve your old sets. The idea is simple: Make you run 50% of the game to get the best of the best and even make party a must to improve drops chances.
brg blizzard north back… the WoW team sucks….. diablo3 is nothing to do with diablo…
maybe you can mention this in the next video.
the problem is the sets in general and massive damage mutipliers embedded in them. the sets need to go… and all skills and regular legends should be restructured.
orange star on ground = automatic shit
they just had to remake d2 with better graphics 🙁
I miss eth.zod tyreals. … those are the godlies we love to chase. deliriums bloodletters and both. ..
Great points in this video. They need to really make adventuring fun.. I mean remember how fun it was to make a new charecter in d2 and adventure through normal nightmare and hell…absorbing the experience with others along the way? D3 does not have that feeling.
D3 is ugly
I totally agree on that about not make more items, but just change the items in the game.
Make more balanced class set. So you have 3-4 good class set close to each other.
And make other set and legendarys good, so you don't salvage 90% of the legendarys you get.
Great video.
For me, the biggest problem is no offline mode.
I know that with offline mode, people can hack and use bots, and in order to stop that, you'd have to put offline characters in a sandbox of sorts – prevent them from playing with other players.
I would gladly play in my own little sandbox because I enjoy playing hardcore the most, but all my HC heroes die from lag spikes. I spent like 100's of hours in hardcore, just to die to lag spikes and disconnects.
I also remember doing the God-mod wizard bug pre-expansion, funnest time i've ever had on diablo 3, haha.
Biggest reason to play story mode in diablo 2 was hellforge in hell, chance for a high rune drop! xD
Diablo 1 Hellfire is still the best Diablo. Blizzard will be never able to beat it. All the changes the made to it, just made the game the game worse.
You should try and get in contact with blizzard, and let them hire you 🙂
But seriously, please contact them with this video
D3 have a great story ?? ….hmmm don't really agree with that …..is super childish and cheesy and as you said …..no one plays it.
They could have mae it like : finish the story mode in order to unlock adventure mode
Does anyone else think that it's stupid that Diablo 3 + reaper of souls is like $80? I bought Diablo 3 and all I have is story mode. I can't even use adventure mode. I have to buy reaper of souls to even free roam… What is this? Club penguin?
Shouldn't you have realized that Diablo 3 is a lost cause by now? I mean sure, it is Diablo and it's Blizzard.
But I really don't see them fixing all the problems that it currently has. It's just way too far gone.
D3 vanilla was 10x better than RoS. Rares were useful, legendaries didn't rain from the sky, you weren't dependant on set pieces for your build(s) to work, you could play whatever build you wanted and still be competetive. Theres no way to "show off" your progress in like PVP (no, brawl is not pvping) – so you basically farm to farm gear to farm faster. That shit gets boring really fast.
Another problem is the only item stats that actually matter is CHD, chc, attack speed and main stat + vitality for basically every single slot. Yeah theres the legendary bonus effect but who really cares about the bonus effect on most pieces.
Agreed, except for the OP items. We already have OP items and those are the 6p sets. They completely ruined the game. There are item synergies, in fact a lot of legendaries make for fun synergy builds, for example Belt of Trove + Mortal Drama + Eternal Union + Unrelenting Phalanx. Hardly anyone uses builds besides the OP 6p sets and if you do don't even think about joining a public group.
"Redesign the Core" says it all. but why? Its not good for the Finances. because Redesigning = might as well design a new. Plus D3 has disappointed a lot of people so they've already moved onto other games. I can't find a good reason to save the Diablo series other than I love it. First game I ever played. However, is that what the company thinks?. If I was the owner I'd shut it down. The story was also kinda meh. "This guy keeps coming back…. Cool" Sometimes the dead should stay dead. Leah should be the new evil after being awakened. Diablo had a good run, but its driven to the ground now. Yes its fun like… the start of every season… Not really since 1-70 is still a useless grind, even with the cube.(Items can only drop at certain level, then you have to cube it. Its just annoying.) Whatever they're doing is just delaying the inevitable end. What I honestly expected from D3 was just a better graphic D2.
This is just my own opinion/rant because I did expect more from a top tier company like Blizzard.
i can clear 10 t6 in about 15 mins regardless of density lol
I haven't felt excited or challenged in this game since the day I downed Diablo in Inferno difficulty the first time on my sword and board barb. Had like 12k dps, 900 all res, and like 700 LoH. It made the encounter feel epic and it took time to grind your way to the end. Now, the game has no end goal to grind for. Everyone raged how D3 was too hard cause of loot, ragequit the game and whined until they nerfed the game into the ground…
Are you a crusader
blizzard should of just remade d2 with d3 graphics would of been a 1000% better game
This guy (Mikhail) is a true Diablo fan he knows exactly what it's missing!
I hope they add the nemesis mechanic like on console, if a monster killed you or a friend. It could be a lvl 1 zombie from Old Tristram for example, it would invade all of your future games and all off your friends games at a random time until you kill it, but every time it kills any player it levels up leaves the game and comes back stronger and adds your name to its title of the people slain near its name. But if you manage till kill it it drops loot as if it were a rift boss. I miss having that random fear in my games, having that one enemy you hate the most spawn in wreck your shit then teleport out lol.
I also don't remember if it comes back with random abilities after each kill, Its been a while. But look it up it would be a cool thing, especially for hardcore. Your friends could get revenge for you if he decided to sore his face again.
Looks like patch 2.3 may be fixing a lot of these issues with Kanai's Cube and numerous quality of life improvements. I can't wait! You can watch my preview commentary here: https://youtu.be/0YRveSvjAwE
At 12.00min when talk about useless item. these item drop for one purpass, because u need to salvage it
Diablo 3's story is pretty horrid, let's not even get into the elementary dialogue. The battle of demon's and angels is very cliche'd at this point. I do agree with you that Blizzard does hyper nerf characters often, leaving us with a weakened, puny hero.
They don't care, or they are not competent enough to make it happen. Either way, it sucks.
Dear Blizzard,
Listen to this man.
Kind regards.
Great video and great points. I realised a while ago that to enjoy D3, I had to lower my expectations. It is fun in bursts (like what you described with lulls a few months after patches come out), but it will never be as in-depth and interesting as D2. We really do need a 3.0, but this game's longevity is severely impaired by the core functions of the game 🙁 Serious revamping needs to take place to keep this game alive. Hope Blizz listens to you though!
I did not think you were 31 to be honest. I assumed you were like 25 or so.
T6 makes any build + focus/restraint playable for casual players. The same people that complain about low itemization are also complaining about Blizz not giving us t7+… so u want all builds to equally perform – all legendaries to compete for the top spot yet u want Blizz to give us a bigger challenge for low-tier farming? Well let's friggin think about this for a minute… damage output boils down to numbers. Bigger numbers out-perform smaller numbers. In competitive play, any combination of items that puts out bigger numbers is going to win. Making all items competitive in value means rarity should also be standardized. As it is now, the rarist items win. This sounds like an exciting game you've thought up… make common items as good as the rarist items. But wait, should Blizz make all items have the same drop rate or keep these equally-valuable-but-super-rare-items extremely pointlessly hard to find?
Hopefully with this new patch they allow people to switch languages..
I would really like the trade system back. That way we can actually trade the stuff one other needs and same time make gold useful once again. Think about it, what do we even use gold for right now, other than rerolling stats or crafting gems?
I agree with you about making the other builds competitive. This will actually give the players to play with what they enjoy the most.
Another problem that never got any attention (from Blizzard's side) is the PVP system. I remember how you could duel another in D2. It was a lot of fun, and sadly nothing about this is changing with the upcoming patch.
Overall pretty nice to hear your opinions about the different subjects regarding the game. Good day 🙂
Your notes about the loot are on the spot. It would be really nice if instead of having a system that only is based in the luck of the draw, add something that rewards you with the ability to improve items. i.e. killing bosses in story mode gives you some reagent, and then that reagent can be used to improve the abilities of the gear. I do play a lot of "fun builds", lots of which are barely good enough for T6, but give me the feel I am not in automatic just picking the same set every one else does.
I really think rewarding work vs. pure time/luck and allowing improving the gear deterministically, so one can work towards a goal with something more than mindless grinding.
To give an example, lets pick a couple items that are kind of useless. Assume I have a "Blessed of Haull" and a "Jace Hammer of Vigilance". Imagine how interesting would it be if by completing tasks, and doing certain things I could acquire things that would allow me to improve those items core values in a deterministic way. To keep it balanced, the max values already existing on the weapon could be kept. Past that it could be done similarly to what is done with jewelry, where it is harder and harder to make the next upgrade.
Giving options for being different would be awesome. Then it would be interesting to see how far people can take different builds. With the amount of gear available that would be something.
Patch 2.3 announced http://us.battle.net/d3/en/blog/19802338/patch-230-ptr-preview-6-23-2015
I love Diablo 3,But this Dev team sucks.
I have a problem with the statement concerning being OP'd. Sure being OP'd and having OP'd items might be fun for a while. But it gets boring really fast because then there is nothing that is challenging. Players love overcoming a challenge.
If Blizz had a buffarama where they just kept buffing where everything was OP'd to the point where content would be trivialized with zero challenge. Sure you and a few others would have fun for a little while. But then it would get boring because of the lack of challenge. Take a look how players on the official forums have been asking for more tiers of torment. That is because T6 is a joke, to many it is the new normal.
While initially I do agree that there are a lot of items in the game that could be used along with content that could be changed to make the game better. While they don't need to add a ton of stuff there is something that I would love added.
I would love for them to revisit the talisman system. Where you would have a talisman that would hold 13 1×1 charms. These charms wouldn't be stat sticks. They would be able to have legendary affixes that would change how you play the game. Some of them would allow you to customize the existing gear. Take the Leap Quake barb. With the right charms either rares or legendaries you could change Leap Quake to Seismic Slam Quake barb. Or you could boost the power of the Leap Quake barb to be equal to the Wastes set barb.
Add in the ability to take legendaries that either have legendary affixes or not and allow you to add them together in a way where you would have a powerful build that would be able to compete with the best sets in the game. This would take an expansion to do it.
"We need OP items"
"They made the damage multipliers too high"

The Vermont Council on Rural Development is facilitating a Community Visit process in the City of Vergennes that helps area residents discuss, set, and then implement common goals for the future of the city. Vergennes, Vermont's smallest city and one of the smallest in the whole country, is a unique community with a historic downtown and a waterfront along the Otter Creek with access to Lake Champlain.
Last month, over 100 community members and a visiting team of 25 representatives from state, federal, private, non-profit, and philanthropic agencies participated in a Community Visit Day in Vergennes. Participants shared their thoughts on topics of relevance in Vergennes including: Municipal & Non-Profit Resources, Tourism, Recreation & Entertainment, the Role of Municipal Government, Basin & Riverside Development, Connecting Youth, Transportation Infrastructure & Pedestrian Safety, The Future of Economic Development, and a Vergennes Community Center.
On Wednesday, April 16th, VCRD will return to Vergennes for the second meeting in the Community Visit process. All members of the Vergennes community are invited to participate in this community meeting which will set the path for Vergennes' future. The meeting will be held from 6:30 – 9:00pm at the Vergennes Opera House.
According to Paul Costello, VCRD Executive Director, "Vergennes residents have an excellent opportunity to help aim Vergennes in the right direction on a number of issues by attending the Community Meeting at the Opera House on April 16th. The forums held in March produced some big bold ideas. Now this meeting will help residents set priorities for action. Active participation from town residents is essential in setting direction to best meet the needs of the town going forward. Everyone is invited! And everyone who comes is equal in the process, even if they missed last month's meeting."
The April 16 meeting will review the list of ideas generated over the Community Visit day held last month. VCRD will facilitate a discussion of those ideas, where members of the Vergennes community will consolidate, add to, and champion the list of opportunities; and, through dialog and dot-voting exercises, they will identify the top priorities to move forward in the coming year. The issues that are selected will become the focus of local task force groups that will be formed to move the priorities forward.
All residents, whether they participated in the first session or not, are encouraged to come out on April 16th to play an active role in shaping Vergennes's future and to vote for issues that will become the focus of working groups in the coming year.
The VCRD Community Visit process was invited to the town by the City Council to help set community priorities for the future. Mayor Bill Benton has agreed to serve as Community Visit Chairperson; he'll help coordinate work with committees over the next year.
The Vermont Council on Rural Development is a non-profit, non-partisan organization dedicated to advancing rural Vermont communities. For more information, contact Margaret at 802-223-6091 or email@example.com. Click here to download the flyer (pdf).

13 Important Questions & Answers
about Zakat al Fitr
Bismallah Alhamdulillah wasalat wasalamu ala rasool elllah Ama Ba3ed:
May allah subhanahu watala allow this to be for his and his sake only and may Muslims benefit from it. Gathered questions and answers regarding Zakat al Fitr:
1. What is zakat al fitr?
Zakat Al fiter is a charity given at the end of Ramadan or the morning of the Eid Alfiter.
It was named zakat al fitr because it's to be given when Muslims break their fast at the end of Ramadan.
2. When was Zakat Alfitr ordained?
It seems that it was ordained the same time Ramadan was ordained in the 2nd year of the hijra, because it's part of Ramadan, and we know not of any Ramadan the sahabah radia Allahu Anhum fasted in which they did not give zakat Elfitr in.
3. Is this an ordain or a sunnah?
It is an "ordain" and a "must" without any doubt.
The prophet sallah allahu alieh wasalam said in a hadith under the chain of Ibn Umar radia allah anh in both Bukhari and Muslim "The Prophet ordained zakat al fitr sa3 of dates or sa3 of wheat"
The hadith is clear in stating the prophet sallah allahu alieh wasalam "ordained".
-Imam Ibn Al munther and others reported ijma (meaning consensus) and no dispute among scholars on this matter except by the hanafi madhab which believe its a wajib and not fard, just a dispute in terms used but the end result is that all scholars believe its an ordain.
-It's also said that the verse "He is successful who groweth" 87:14 means zakat alfitr.
4. What's the wisdom behind ordaining such a charity?
a. Purification of those who fasted from excessive gossip, evil talk, and backbiting which people constantly fall into. So the charity is a purification and forgiveness for that.
Ibn Abbas radia allah anhuma clearly informed us the purpose behind ordaining this charity when he said :(The Prophet sallah allahu alieh wasalam ordered zakat alfiter purification for one who fasts from gossip and excessive talk during fasting as well as a charity for the poor). The hadith is Narrated in Sunan Abu dawoud, Ibn Majah, Aldarqutny, and Alhakem who said its authentic.
b. To help the poor so that eid will not come upon anyone needy or begging, and so they may enjoin the Muslims in their happiness and celebrations.
The Prophet sallah Allahu alieh wasalam said:(Keep them from going around begging this day), meaning give that charity so they will not go beg but rather enjoy this eid, be happy in it and place a smile on their faces.
5. What types of food do we give in charity for zakat alfitr?
You may give sa3 of dates, wheat, raisins, which are mentioned in hadith abusaeed in both bukhari and Muslim.
Scholars such as Ibn Taimieh said you can give that which is of the common food of the people of that time like some of the sahabah did.
6. I would like to give chocolate or coffee instead of wheat or rice?
What you give must be something one can survive from.
Equivalent to wheat for example would be rice, biryani or anything of its likes.
7. How much food in charity do I give?
We mentioned the term "sa3" many times. That is one of the means they used to weigh food during the Prophets time Sallah allahu alieh wasalam.
"sa3" would be to fill average hands combined together 4 times.
A "sa3" is equivalent to (2.5 to 3) Kilograms or (5.5 to 6.5) pounds.
8. I do not want to give food as charity but rather give money equivalent to that amount of food, can I do that?
Note: To give a masjid, charity organization, a relative or someone you trust cash and currency to buy the food and give it for you is permissible because that is tawkeel.
Giving a charity, masjid, relative, or a poor cash currency instead of the categories of foods we mentioned is disputed and here is the breakdown:
1. The GREAT VAST majority of the ulama and imams is that it is NOT permitted for you to give zakat alfiter in currency but rather it MUST be given as food.
-Imam Ahmad rahimahu allah said: (I'm afraid it will not be accepted as zakat Alfitr)
-This is also the madhab of the great two Imams Malik and Shafey rahimahum allah.
-Imam Ibn Hazem Rahimahu Allah said:(It will not be accepted because that is what the Prophet Sallah Allahu Alieh waslam ordained).
Basically the Proof is that the Prophet sallah allahu alieh wasalam ordered in all the hadith that food be given. And we all know that the prophet sallah allahu alieh wasalam was given "jawame3 alkalem" which means eloquent and precise wording and phrasing; meaning he could have said give sa3 of food or something equivalent to that of gold and silver (dinar and dirham) which was known at that time yet he did not say that so we should stick to what he said.
2. Imam Abu Hanifa and Atta' rahimahum allah said it is accepted to give zakat alfitr in Cash rather than food.
The proof for the second camp is that they resorted to the purpose of zakat elfitr which is to keep the poor from asking, and whatever keeps them from asking whether it may be food or currency is accepted.
Also, they said poor people may take the food and re-sell it for cheaper than it's worth to get the currency so they end up not benefiting from the entire sa3 of food nor do they get it's equivalent in currency.
I do find it important to stress how strong the first opinion is because their basis is strong in stating that the Prophet sallah Allahu alieh wasalam mentioned categories of food and not currency which they had, and which other charities like zakat almal must be given in.
This is a special zakat that should be given in the special way we were told to give it, namely food like the Prophet sallah allahu alieh wasalam did, and more so all generations of the sahabah gave in food, not a single sahabah was known to have given currency instead of food.
*I presented both scholarly opinions and alhamdulillah this is a fikh issue of Islam which we can all get along with each other even if we disagree and it should not cause ill and hard feelings in our communities and masjids, especially in times like eid. We say like the pious previous imams mentioned in matters of dispute similar to this (Our opinion is correct which has the possibility of error in it, and our brothers are incorrect but it has the possibility of being correct).
9. Who must give Zakat Alfitr?
Every single Muslim male and female, child or elder, poor or rich.
-The poor who must give are those who can spare a sa3 on themselves and those they are entrusted to support unless they will sleep hungry the night of eid if zakat alfitr is given.
-The man of the household is in charge of giving zakat alfiter on himself and those he is required to financially support starting with himself, his wife, his children, his mother then his father and the rest of those he spends and cares for.
- Hadith Ibn Umar in both Bukhari and Muslims said (The prophet sallah allahu alieh wasalam ordered zakat el fiter in Ramadan on the free and on the salve, on the male and the female, on the young and the elder of the Muslims).
-In Hadith Tha3labah Ibn Aby Suer it's similar to the previous hadith with the addition of (.. as well as every rich or poor Muslim, the rich allah will purify them, and the poor allah will return upon them more than that which they give). The hadith is in Aldarkutny.
-Some sahabah even said the parents should give for the infant in his mothers womb but did not say it was ordained to do so.
10. Who do I give it to?
The people you give this kind of zakah are categorized in a verse in the koran: (The alms are only for the poor and the needy, and those who collect them, and those whose hearts are to be reconciled, and to free the captives and the debtors, and for the cause of Allah, and (for) the wayfarer; a duty imposed by Allah. Allah is Knower, Wise.) 9:60.
The most category that should be given priority out of all those categories for zakat el fitr in particular are the (poor and needy) because the prophet sallah allahu alieh wasalam told us the purpose was to fulfill their needs from asking that day.
11. I have relatives who are poor can I give them my zakat?
Yes, relatives who you are not REQUIRED to financially support and are poor deserve your zakah...
Those you are required to support are like the wife, and children.
A daughter who is married is not of the category that your required to support, therefore you may give the zakat to her if she is in need.
12. When do I give zakat el fitr?
It becomes an ordain upon you the night before the eid.
It can be given the night before the eid or two nights before that.
The BEST time to give it however, is just before the prayer of the eid.
-In Hadith Ibn Umar in the Bukhari and one similar in saheeh Muslim he said (and for it to be given before people begin heading for the prayer of the eid).
- Ibn Aby Shiabah narrated that Ibn Abbas said (from the sunnah is that zakat elfiter to be given before prayer)
-If it is given a day or two or even three before the eid it is permissible inshallah as Imam Alkharky said. Anything over that is not proper nor acceptable (as zakat elfitr) but will be considered a regular charity because it is so far from eid it no longer is attributed to eid (alfitr).
-You may give the zakah in currency to someone early in Ramadan or anytime before that on the condition that they carry the task of physically purchasing the food and giving the zakah to the poor a few days before eid.
-You may also give the food to someone you trust days or weeks before the eid on the condition that it be given to the poor a few nights before the eid.
13. I live in the USA can I give my zakat in Palestine, Pakistan or India?
Zakat elfiter and Zakat al mal, should be given in the area you are a residing in the time eid occurs, unless there is an extreme circumstance that deprives you from that or there is no poor people in your area.
May allah subhanahu walatala accept our praying and fasting and allow us to be among those freed from hellfire.
Ahmad Jibril

let it be
this year I am happy to say that I am among those most blessed individuals, who in spite of being on the dark side of 50, my mother is alive and well!
I went down to visit my mom and dad last weekend to help celebrate my mom's 84th birthday. I sometimes debate which weekend to go south to visit my folks - my mom's birthday or mother's day and my mom's birthday seems to always win out. part of my own personal ritual for celebrating these two special days is to get flowers and veggies and plant them for my mom to enjoy in the days and months ahead. this year mom cautioned me to not go overboard and to control the number of plants that I bring home. I never thought of it before but planting a garden at someone's house can be a bit of like giving someone a white elephant. my mom's days are full taking care of my dad, who I am happy to report is still with us. unlike my mom, my dad is quite frail and benefits from having as many 'mothers' around as possible (in the tibetan buddhist sense) ...
by the way, this time I did listen to my mom, and I didn't go overboard - although I did put in four tomato plants instead of her requested 'only two'....how could I resist the varieties of heirlooms at their local farmer's market!
neither of the songs I had hoped to use today - susan mckeown's mother of mine or natalie mcmaster's mom's jig are available on youtube. however, last night lin dropped in to take matilda home and I asked her what song came to her mind with the prompt 'motherhood.' without missing a beat she replied 'let it be.' thanks lin, I think you are right, this beautiful tribute mccarthy wrote to his mom may be the ultimate mom song!
speaking of beautiful tributes to mothers make sure you read connie schultz's beautiful tribute to her mom which appears in today's pd.

oh, kimy, this is a lovely post. 84 years old ain't no joke...bow down...as my gr. grand would say at 92, "i've lived enough for you and yours...so go own now..."
her daughter, my 81 year old great Auntie, still living...used to give my gr. grand a water melon for Mother's day and begonias....your post reminded me of this...(again)
as for your paps...many thoughts, well wishes and blessings to him...sounds like he is in the best of hands...
BTW: Happy Mother's Day to you too...

'Hollywood Ending' is the 32nd film written and directed by Woody Allen.
Another light comedy, Allen returns to Hollywood's abuse of art as a victim of his barbed wit.
Woody Allen stars as Val Waxman, a director past his prime who is given a second chance by his studio executive ex-wife Ellie (Téa Leoni) to make a new film. Unfortunately he is struck by blindness – but it might not be the problem that ends his career.

+ Free to use
+ Loads quickly
+ High quality images
- Cannot navigate directly to a location
If you are the type that likes to look over Google maps in street view, then you will find MapCrunch very interesting and possibly addicting as well. Instead of having to try and find interesting areas to look at, you simply hit the Go! button and you are transported to a randomized street view somewhere around the world.
You will be provided the location, and if you like it enough, you can share the street view with others. If you are looking for ideas for a road trip or vacation, this is a fun and interesting way to do that as well, and they allow you to choose from 50 countries available to show street views in.
Idea: 3.5
MapCrunch brings two things together: high quality satellite street view imaging and people who are interested in exploring and seeing various parts of the world. This is a good concept because even those who are not able to afford travel expenses are able to see how other parts of the world look as if they were standing there. Then, when an interesting location is found, users are able to quickly share with friends via social media. The concept of being randomly transported to various locations is cool, but the satellite imaging aspect isn't anything new.
Usability: 4.0
MapCrunch offers rather simple and familiar navigation. If you used Google Maps in street view before, you will be familiar with controlling the map itself simply by clicking the arrow in the direction you would like to go next. In order to transport to a new location, you simply hit the green Go! button on the top. If you want to share or select which countries you few, these options are conveniently located by the Go! button as well. The location is shown in the top right, with the social share buttons under the location.
Design: 5.0
We were very pleased with the overall design of MapCrunch as it allowed for quick and easy navigation. It literally took seconds to learn where all the main features were located. It was quicker to load than other Google Map related services we have tried out, and it's fun to use. The layout is not distracting either as others have been.
Price: 5.0
As with various other services that run off Google Maps, MapCrunch is offered to users free of charge. This means if you are bored or just want to explore and don't have the means to do it in person, then all you have to do is visit the site and you will be randomly transported somewhere at no cost.
Utility: 3.5
So, MapCrunch provides a high-quality street view imaging application that randomly takes you around the world. The purpose of the site is not to be a map, but to randomly transport you around the world. We see this being more useful for those who want to pass some time or just looking for random places to take a trip to, kind of the equivalent of throwing a dart at the map.

Image (c) Jan Burch 2009
Thursday, January 15 ~ On the same day the Miracle Plane would come to a safe landing in New York's Hudson River, a water pipe breaks in my bathroom. At 3 am! Thanks to my foresight in previously installing a user-friendly shut-off valve, I get the house water supply turned off within 15 minutes. No more sleep for Jan!
Within that 15 minutes, the bathroom and hallway are flooded. I begin making phone calls, and watch as the water seeps into all three bedrooms and part of the living room and dining room. Fortunately, my consulting room, kitchen, and family room are unaffected.
By 8 am the broken pipe is fixed and the clean-up crew is here to scoop up the water and dry things out. I'm thinking it will just be a couple of hours and then I can go back to bed. Not true! The crew moves my furniture, peels back and removes the carpets, pads, and baseboards. Then they set up a bunch of huge air-blowers to dry things out. They've already told me these machines need to run continuously for 24-48 hours, so I have booked myself & Luvlee into the EconoLodge. I pack up the cat, my computer, my jammies and toothbrush, and head for the motel. After a take-out dinner, a bit web surfing, and a hot bath, I sink gratefully into bed.
Friday, January 16 ~ I return home to find that everything's dry - yay! Luvlee & I check out of the motel. The clean-up company removes their machinery (blissful quiet), and puts my essential furniture back. I can sleep in my own bed tonight :-)
Saturday and Sunday, January 17-18 ~ On the same days that our elected President and Vice-President were making their train trip to the Nation's Capitol, and hosting an awesome concert (I especially like that Pete Seeger came onstage at the Lincoln Memorial to lead the crowd in singing "This Land is Your Land"), I'm attending a much-anticipated class in Visual Journaling. Though I haven't caught up on my rest at this point, I'm happy to be away from the house and all its reminders of recent catastrophe. Making collage pages in the class also gives me a way to process what has happened - notice the water images!
Monday January 19 ~ As Americans everywhere are stepping up to our new President's call for a National Day of Service, I meet with clean-up and insurance representatives to talk about what needs to be done. It's looks like I'll be getting my entire carpet replaced. Sigh. I know it need to be done, but I didn't really need a new carpet and I'm overwhelmed when I think of all the disruption that entails. Still, better to to it under insurance than not.
Tuesday January 20 ~ Inauguration Day. I'm sitting on my couch, glued to CNN's online broadcast and making use of the accompanying Facebook comment stream. My house is functional except for a pile of dirty dishes and a bathroom that needs cleaning - and I have a client due to arrive in the afternoon! I watch all the way through the Inaugural ceremony, then grab a quick lunch. I start to tackle the dishes, but the obsession pulls me, so I plug in my computer by the kitchen sink and keep on watching the news. I get the update on Senator Kennedy's condition (so relieved to know he's okay) and watch the start of the Inaugural parade. By some unknown magic, I get myself pulled together and my house presentable when my client arrives. Together we watch the parade as our new President and First Lady walk to the viewing stand, sharing our thoughts of elation, joy, and amazement. And then it's back to work.
And so it went, and so it goes. I'm gratefully caught up on my rest, and back to work. The change of carpet, plus the large insurance deductible I must pay, weigh on me like burdens. What can I do but keep putting one foot in front of the other, and trust that it will all work out. Even my own Mercury Retrograde reading (two posts below this) said, "go with the flow, and don't be surprised when plans change." Sometimes I amaze myself with my forecast - although in this case I'd rather not be!
I do give sincere thanks to these great companies who are helpful get back my life to normal: Royal Plumbing, ServiceMaster, State Farm Insurance, and All of State Carpets. And a big *thank you* to Marc S. for taking my early-morning phone call.

From the award-winning author Lynn Freed, who's been called a "literary star" by The New York Times Book Review, comes a hilarious and brilliant new novel about the riotous, passion-filled adventures of three women who thought they were past their prime.
To escape their griping grown children, husbands and lovers, and an abundance of grandchildren underfoot, three self-proclaimed "old bags," Dania, Ruth, and Bess, head for a quiet island on the Aegean Sea. They'll spend a year by the water—watching the sunset, eating grilled fish and fresh olives, sipping ouzo. They deserve it, they say. After all those years, the three women will finally have some peace.
Except that they can't. For one, Bess, a pampered, once-beautiful inheritress, falls swiftly into an affair with a poetry-writing taxi driver—who has, of course, a territorial wife. And Dania, a therapist, begins to receive an increasing number of cryptically menacing phone calls from a psychotic patient. An ex-lover of Ruth's shows up unexpectedly, right before one of Bess's does—and then the women's children arrive, with their own demanding children in tow. As the island quickly becomes crowded, the women's serene year in Greece devolves perilously, and uproariously, into something much more complicated.
With the wit of Maria Semple's Today Will Be Different and all the adventure of Deborah Moggach's The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel, Lynn Freed's The Last Laugh is at once wildly funny and deeply perceptive, an exuberant story of friendship and pleasure, family and love.

Non-adsorbing polymers induce attractive interactions between colloidal. For example, two microtubules (MTs) in a solution of poly-ethyleneglycol (PEG) spontaneously form a bundle that maximizes its overlap within seconds. We combined single filament imaging with optical trapping in order to measure the free energy of this interaction. This approach also makes it possible to measure forces acting on microtubules, which are responsible for the overlap maximization.
This experimental technique can be used to measure pairwise interactions between various biological or synthetic filaments and complements information extracted from other experiments (for example, measurements based on bulk osmotic stress).
In order for this type of measurement to work, the bundle must be freely sliding. If the two MTs are linked to each in some way (for example, through friction or by microtubule-associated proteins), the depletion force might be insufficient to drive the overlap maximization. The case of strong frictional coupling between bio-polymers is explored here.
This research has been published in Physical Review Letters

Read this excerpt on Learning Carnatic Music from the Perfecting Carnatic Music Level 2 Book published by IFCM.
Carnatic music is a highly organised system, easy to learn with a rational approach. But it is also very intricate and demanding, and full of subtleties.One needs musical aptitude, patience, perseverance and focus on quality. Above all, one needs to possess and display the right attitude towards the art and the teacher. The compositions of celebrated composers like Purandara Dasa, Oottukkadu Venkata Kavi and Tyagaraja are perpetual testimonies to their exemplary attitude. Most top-calibre artistes are success stories not only due to their talent but also because they possessed the desirable mind-set. This is essential for the students' progress and for the welfare of the system.
The correct approach:
The first step is to display complete trust and respect for the teacher's judgement. One must steer clear of getting impatient and trying to rush the learning process. Living in the 21st century, a period synonymous with the space age or cyber age, often makes people want to acquire or master skills at break-neck speed. Even those with natural talent need time to hone their skills and gain expression. A good teacher alone is qualified to decide how, when and what to teach, because artistic knowledge is not always tangible and quantitative.
It is also imperative to note that monetary investment alone cannot buy artistic skill or discernment. A time vs money approach or attempts to impose artistic decisions on the guru are hugely detrimental to the students, who will fail to imbibe essential intricacies that constitute good artistry. This is comparable to dictating treatment methods to a doctor just because one is paying the necessary fees.
The correct approach also includes:
- Basic humility where the art is concerned
- A positive attitude
- Enthusiasm to learn and practise with sincerity and patience
- Constant effort towards perfection with correctness
- They must monitor the practice of the students regularly, and brief the teacher about any difficulty he or she faces while learning.
- They can share their inputs about their long/medium term (say 2-5 years ahead) plans with respect to their child's progress, but leave the details of teaching and short-term decisions to the teachers.
- They must not pressurise the teacher to move on to more complex lessons, or suggest alternate methods.
- They must not push the students to perform at public events before getting the go ahead from the teachers.
Most good teachers are only too happy if the student makes not merely fast, but solid progress. They normally make every effort to teach as sincerely, thoroughly and also, as fast as possible, keeping the students' best interests in mind. But they will be able to take teaching to greater heights if they can also
- Endeavour to follow the goal of perfection with correctness and completeness, and also inculcate this spirit among the students
- Strive to instil a sense of pride and self-enjoyment in every student
- Aim to not merely teach Carnatic music but also what it represents – the finest aspects of refined culture
It is recommended that students also read more on this subject in the first chapter of Perfecting Carnatic Music – Level 1. If you need help to find a teacher to learn online, please see details on this page.

Intrigued? 🙂 Observe any K-pop girl group, and you will find that they all share characteristics of glowing skin, well-defined eyes and lips, and long, voluminous lashes. This beautiful make-up look is all the rage in Korea right now and I am going to share it with my dear readers today using just Laneige products!
I was very very lucky to be one of the top ten girls picked by Laneige to attend a hands-on beauty workshop (from my post here)where I'd learn some K-beauty secrets. I am never a fan of the dewy look because my face is naturally shiny and oily; but this workshop taught me how to achieve the natural glowy look without looking oily at all 🙂
Queuing up for our first shot of the day, we were all feeling jittery.. hees
Feeling beyond ecstatic would be understatement when I realize what was in store for us!
Oh yes, the entire Laniege makeup range for us to bring home! SO GENEROUS! WOOTS!
Top 3 Laneige products.. which do you own? 🙂 I am a proud owner of #1 & #3!
We were super obedient and concentrated, trying to achieve the K-beauty look! Hehe
Super kawaii! :B
With the gorgeous bloggers Velda & QiuQiu! 🙂
Makeup still as perfect after a long day!
Here's my "after" look 😀
Group photo with all the gorgeous ladies!
♥ ♥ ♥
My very own "before-after" look! Hehe
(Disclaimer: all I did was brighten the pictures, no photoshop done~)
Step 1: Moisture Lip Balm
Before I start any makeup routine, I like to moisturise my lip first. Give it ample time to be absorbed and hydrated, so that I still have the chance to touch up at the end. I love how it is not at all oily or sticky and gets absorbed really fast.
Step 2: Lumi Volume Primer
Pinkish undertones to instantly brighten up my skin tone with a radiant glow. Squeeze out a tiny amount onto my middle and ring finger before blending it evenly onto my skin. One application is sufficient and creates a sheer veil over the face.
Step 3: Snow BB Soothing Cushion SPF50+ PA+++
Star product of the day! The BB cushion is super easy to blend, just pat more layers onto your face if you want thicker coverage. Folding the puff into half helps reach more inaccessible areas like the sides of your nose and the undereyes. This product is totally ideal for dry and/or dehydrated skin, perfect for my days in the office and holidaying in dry climates! It is gentle enough to be used on the eye areas; and I love how every time I accidentally smudge my eye makeup, all I need to do is dap a bit of my Q-tip with this and my mistake is instantly corrected! Really a lifesaver, I finally know why it is so popular!! (Oh yes, my bb cushion is super stained cuz I can't stop using it.. ;p)
Step 4: Water Supreme Finish Pact SPF25 PA++
To finish off, use compact powder to set the base. It is very sheer but helps mattify my ultra shiny areas.. tap it across your forehead and at the side of nose. Avoid tapping it on your nose bridge so as to enhance the sharpness. If you prefer, use a stipple brush to dab it on your face (no wiping motions).
Step 5: Multi Shaping Eyeliner – Over & Inner Liner in No. 1 (Black)
Lining my lash line with this eyeliner was a major breeze. I love how it is so intense yet doesn't smudge easily, one stroke across and I am done! Effortless and fuss-free~ I am a total convert now! I know that a lot of girls have huge difficulty lining their lash line; trick is to have your mirror laying flat on your table, look downwards towards your mirror and start lining it. To elongate your eye to achieve the K-beauty look, extend it longer than your natural eye shape and wing it slightly.
Step 6: Multi Professional Shadow in No. 1
With a small angled brush, I used the #1 (dark brown) over the eyeliner drawn close my lash line. It helps to soften the harshness of the black eyeliner without the need to invest in a brown eyeliner. Remember, when it comes to recreating the "blingbling" look, or basically any soft Korean look, harsh eye makeup is a no-no! We are trying to create the au naturel look, barely there but bringing out the best of our features 🙂
I am horrible at applying eyeshadow but this step is pretty easy. With windswiper motions and using a puffy eyeshadow brush, I've applied #2 (shine brown) on my lower eyelids starting from the middle. Avoid using #3 (shimmer beige) as you'll shine bright in this for sure. It is better used for evening events I reckon.
Step 7: Volume Setting Mascara
This mascara is major! 2 coats and you can see how volumized and curled up my lashes are. Just remember to curl you lashes in 3 areas (bottom, middle and top) before applying it for best effect!
Step 8: Natural Brow Liner in No. 1 (Mocha Brown)
I skipped drawing my brows as they are already very thick and bushy for this look. This shade is perfect for achieving the natural brows look, saw the other girls drawing it on their brows and they look so natural in it. I also love how there is a brush at the other side for easy grooming on-the-go.
Step 9: Professional Selection – Blusher in No. 1 (Pink Gradation)
Using a blusher brush, pick up a generous amount by dabbing the brush on the blusher before tapping it onto your cheekbones. I know that this is different from the usual method of applying in circular motions on the apples of our cheeks; yet by doing so it helps ensure the highest saturation to be at the apples of the cheeks without accidentally painting your whole face pink! As we are trying to achieve the "blingbling" look, only the first 3 shades of the blusher were used so as to look as natural and radiant as possible.
Step 10: Silk Intense Lipstick in SR105 (Blonde Coral)
Always start off with the middle of the upper lip, dabbing to create a defined M shape in the centre before continuing with the other parts of the lips. I was very skeptical upon receiving this at first because coral is definitely a color I tend to avoid on my lips but boy am I amazed the moment it glide onto my lips. So smooth, watery and most importantly.. natural! It brings out the color in my dull lips without going over the top.. really perfect for the everyday look. No wonder this particular lipstick is always out of stock in Singapore!
A close-up of the final look 🙂
Please please please vote for me here: http://nuffnang.com/beautifulblogger/entries?lang=sg!
Every vote counts and I would really appreciate it!! 🙂

Looking at culture through 9 fields
Gender &
The Body
Sex and sexuality. Senses and sensuality. All the physical experiences of the body.
All of the ways people come together and connect, in places both real and virtual.
Wealth &
How people make money and how they spend it. From macro-economics to the details of shopping baskets.
Health &
The world of wellbeing - how we look after ourselves and strive to become healthier.
Home &
The domestic life of the home, and the places - indoors and out - where people enjoy their leisure time.
The complex systems of ethics, belief and morality. How people go about doing the right thing.
& Nature
All aspects of the natural world and how we interact with our many environments.
Science &
The cutting edge developments and progressions in science, engineering and technology
Creative Expression
How people create and consume in the wide world of arts and design.
Why is culture so important?
Culture is the stuff of life. It's the world around us and what we do within it. It's what we eat, where we go, how we live. It's how we communicate. It gives meaning to the things we buy and the choices we make.
The best brands embrace this. They don't just react to the world, they interact with it and change it. They draw their meaning from culture as its shifts.
Why do we measure cultural vibrancy?
In the study, brands that scored well on cultural VIBE are the brands who credibly tap into cultural trends. The higher their VIBE score, the more these brands are connecting to the cultural zeitgeist. And if their Cultural Traction™ is trending down, it's a cue that they could be losing that connection. A brand's VIBE score and its Cultural Traction™ are leading indicators of a brand's potential growth momentum.
So how can brands up their vibe?
Using the disciplines within Cultural Insight we monitor change within 9 cultural fields that remain constant over time. Each year we identify the key trends that will impact and evolve these fields and use them to inspire more culturally disruptive brand behaviour for clients. We can determine where a category might evolve in the search for new positioning territories or innovation. We can offer the cultural fluency a brand needs to be ahead in culture. Or better yet, play in role in crafting it.
