So, I know I must be about the millionth person to do a review of the Anastasia Beverly Hills Modern Renaissance Palette, and I know I'm several months late, but that's not gonna stop me from writing this post. In my eye shadow tips and tricks post, I mentioned how a lot of people are scared of bright eye shadow colors because they don't know how to make them work. Then I looked at my makeup collection and realized that my very favorite palette had some crazy colors that people wouldn't feel comfortable using. There's a hot pink, an orange, a red, and also some pretty dark colors. So today I want to try to make this palette seem a little less scary! I'm going to start with a review of the palette, do some swatches, and then show off a few eye looks I've done using all shadows from this palette!
To start with, I'm overall super in love with this palette. Almost every shade feels soft and buttery to the touch, and they all blend like a dream. Before I bought this palette I didn't understand how an eye shadow could be buttery, or why people spent tons of money on expensive eye shadows when cheaper ones do the same thing. I get it now. I really do. If you're looking to purchase your first higher end eye shadow palette, I'd say this one is a great place to start. It also comes with a brush, which I know some people haven't liked, but I absolutely love it. The denser portion is great for inner corner highlighting and bottom lid shadow application. The fluffier side is great for blending and building product up in your crease. I use it every time I use this palette.
I have two cons to this palette, neither of which I think are a big deal. My first complaint is that the shadows are all powdery. Some kick up more shadow than others, but they all have quite a bit of fall out. As long as you tap your brush off before applying to the lid, I don't think the powderiness detracts from the experience at all. My other complaint is the packaging. One, it's made of cardboard, which I don't love; if I'm paying $42 for something, I'd prefer it be in sturdier packaging. Two, the outside is covered in a light pinky-purple velvet-like material, which gets super dirty if you even look at it wrong. As someone whose hands are always covered in makeup products, this is a huge problem. My palette is so dirty all over which bugs me, but it's so hard to clean that I can't do anything about it. But I guess since the inside is so beautiful I can deal with less than ideal packaging.
Here are some swatches of all the shadows! These are all done on top of Wet n Wild Fergie Take On the Day Primer. There are two swatches for each shade; the one on the left is a finger swatch and the one on the right is with a brush. The same brush was used for each swatch, but cleaned between colors. The colors are listed and reviewed from left to right.
Tempera: This is a matte pinky-cream color that I like to use all over my lid before I apply other colors. Very easy to work with, and unlike some light shadows it doesn't emphasize fine lines.
Golden Ochre: This is a matte mustardy-yellow type of color. At first glance I didn't think I'd use it at all, but I actually love it. I like to use it similar to Tempera and put it all over my lid for warm, orangey looks.
Vermeer: This is a shimmery silvery-pink color. I'll put this all over my lid on days where I want a little bit of sparkle. I'll also sometimes use this as a highlight on my inner corner and on my brow bone.
Buon Fresco: This is a matte grey-lilac color. I find this can pull a little too grey sometimes, so if you're looking for a true purple then this color may not be up your alley. But I like it for blending into the crease for a softer look.
Antique Bronze: This is a stain brown color that almost looks like it has a tiiiiny bit of purple mixed into it. This is a darker color and also has more powder kickup than the other colors. This is great for darkening up the inner corner.
Lover Letter: This is a matte fuschia-berry color. I actually love to do looks with this blended into the crease and on the outer-V of the eye. This is a fun, buildable color and it blends super well. This shadow feels drier than the others, but it works well so it's not a big deal.
Cyprus Umber: This is a matte dark brown that I use to deepen the outer corner of the eye. Like Antique Bronze, it kicks up a lot of powder. You really need to tap your brush off or else you'll add waaaay more than you want.
Raw Sienna: This is a matte medium brown that I use in my crease pretty much every day. It also looks nice all over the lid if you're going for a more neutral, conservative look.
Burnt Orange: This is a matte warm light brown-orange. I use this much the same way as Raw Sienna; either in my crease or all over the lid, depending on the look I'm going for.
Primavera: This is a shimmery gold champagne color. I like to use this all over the lid. I personally don't like to use such warm golds for my inner corner or brow bone highlight, but if you do this would work super well. I pretty much only wear this all over my lid, but it looks beautiful so I'm not complaining.
Red Ochre: This is a matte deep red-brown color. I use this mostly on my lower lash line and in my outer corner. Sometimes I'll go into the crease a little bit if it's a really intense look. This is another shadow that feels just a little bit drier than the others, but it still blends beautifully so it don't mind too much.
Venetian Red: This is a medium-dark matte red. It's buildable and blendable and I like using it in the outer corner and the crease and sometimes on the lower lash line. I think this is my favorite red shadow I've ever used.
Warm Taupe: This is the quintessential crease color that everyone knows and loves: a warm, matte, taupe color. I use this in my crease almost every day. No matter what colors you use, this color blends in and deepens the crease just enough to add dimension to the look.
Realgar: This is my absolute favorite color. It's a matte burnt orange color. Maybe it's because fall is approaching, but I have been loving burnt orange lately. This looks great blended in and above the crease or all over the lid. It's a little dry, but again, it performs so well that I don't mind one bit.
Here are some looks I've created with this palette in the last couple of weeks. For each look I used only shadows from this palette. I also tried to make these looks super wearable for every day. I used every shadow at least once in the process of making these looks and I'll list them below each picture. Enjoy!
This is one of my favorite every day looks. I started by putting Tempera all over. I put Raw Sienna all over the lid, blended Burnt Orange above the crease, blended Warm Taupe into the crease and outer corner and on the lower lid.
This is similar to the last look, but with more orange. I used Tempera all over, Raw Sienna on the lid, Warm Taupe in the crease, Burnt Orange above the crease, Realgar blended in the outer corner and in the outer half of the crease, and Cyprus Umber in the outer corner and lower lid.
For this look I put Tempera all over, Vermeer on the lid, Warm Taupe in the crease, Buon Fresco above the crease, and I mixed Warm Taupe and Buon Fresco on the lower lid. I also added a little bit of Antique Bronze to the outer corner.
This is one of my favorite special even looks! I wore this to a friend's wedding and got nothing but compliments. I used Primavera on the lid, Warm Taupe in the crease, Love Letter above the crease and blended on the outer half of the lid, and a little bit of Raw Sienna to blend out the edges. I put some Love Letter and Warm Taupe along the bottom lid.
This look is one I specifically did to usher in Fall! I think this palette is perfect for all Fall looks, this is just an example. I put Tempera all over, Golden Ochre on the inner half of the lid, Realgar on the outer half of the lid, Warm Taupe in the Crease, Venetian Red on the upper crease and outer corner, and Red Ochre in the outer corner and on the lower lid.

10 things to know about switch to digital TV
At midnight Feb. 17, most TV stations will stop broadcasting analog signals and switch to digital signals. The federal government is requiring the change, to free up airwaves for use by police, fire, rescue and other emergency workers.
To help fight the confusion — and to help keep your TV playing — here are the top 10 things you need to know about the digital television conversion:
1. You don't need an HDTV. In most cases, your old TV will be fine, even if it's analog. You'll need a digital-to-analog converter box, which will turn the digital signals into something your analog TV can understand.
Smaller than a VCR, these boxes cost $60 or more, but the government is giving away coupons that knock $40 off the price. You're limited to two coupons per household. Read on to find out how to get them.
2. Not everybody needs a converter box. If your TV is connected to a cable or satellite box, you're good; your cable or satellite company box will handle the transition automatically in most cases.
3. Your cable company could still mess up everything. This affects you only if you plug your cable directly into the back of your television. Separately from the government-mandated switch, some cable companies will make their own switch from analog to digital service. That means if the cable company decides to switch its analog service to a digital service, your converter box won't do any good and you will need a cable box after all. Call your cable company to find out whether you have analog service and — if you do — when it will be switched to digital and what equipment you will need to buy or rent to keep getting TV.
4. You should order your converter-box coupons now. But know that you will be put on a waiting list for one. According to www.dtv2009.gov, "at this time, program funding is not currently available to fulfill your request. Your application has been placed on a waiting list. You do not need to apply again. When and if funds become available, coupon requests will be fulfilled on a first-come, first-served basis." Call 1-888-388-2009 for more information.
5. Before you buy a converter box, call ahead. Phone your favorite electronics store to make sure a coupon-compatible box is in stock.
They've been selling out lately, with a delay in restocking. Don't rush to the store only to find out that they're all gone.
6. Your VCR needs its own separate converter box. That old video recorder doesn't understand digital signals any more than your old TV does, so it will need a box so you can record channel X while watching channel Y. Otherwise, you'll have to watch channel X while recording channel X.
7. Don't forget the rabbit ears. In addition to a converter box, you'll need an antenna to snatch the digital signals out of the air and transmit them to the converter box. In many areas, a set of $10 antennas will do the job, so you probably don't need the $60 or $120 models.
8. Your portable TV isn't so portable anymore. Do you have an old portable TV you keep around for emergencies? It probably has an old analog tuner that won't work after the switch unless it's connected to a converter box. And there's no such thing as a portable converter box yet. So you'll need to buy a new portable TV with a digital tuner.
9. You'll get more channels. In the old days, an antenna would bring in only a handful of channels. As many as 30 channels are available now and after the digital switch. Some TV stations have additional channels on which they can provide different programming. Given the economy, however, those stations probably aren't spending the dough to create new shows, just reruns of the early or late newscasts, along with weather. But when the economy improves, watch those stations bust out new ways to reach more viewers so they can sell more ads.
10. Your old TV won't become an HDTV overnight. Many of the new stations will be labeled "HD," but your old TV will show them in standard definition because it can't do high-def. Still, the pictures will be prettier than when your old set was new.

Let me introduce myself!
My name is Leigh Martha Klinger, but most people just call me Leigh. I was born and raised in the city of Krefeld, in the lovely Lower Rhine Area of Germany.
From the start, I was immersed in the languages of English and German. My mom, an English teacher from New Jersey, and my dad, a native German, were also music lovers. I guess you could say that music became my 3rd language.
I've dreamt of being able to sing, dance, and perform for a living since I was 7 years old. After receiving training at The Bavarian Theater Academy August Everding in Munich, I began working in musical theater in many German-speaking countries. Over the course of 6 years, I played in variety of theaters and roles, including a leading part in the Queen musical, "We Will Rock You".
But something was missing! Having always felt the lure of New York and my American roots, I stopped auditioning for European shows and made my way to the States. While it's taken some time to get my bearings in this new world, I've realized that this is the time and place to take advantage of wonderful new opportunities.

Harrison County
Harrison County hosts first county fair in several decades
BILOXI -- There hasn't been a county fair in Harrison County in several decades, but come this September, that's going to change.
There will be something for everyone to enjoy at the five-day event at the Harrison County Fairgrounds.
Event organizer Justin Skinner explained plans for the fair at the county Board of Supervisors' Monday meeting in Biloxi.
The only artifact Skinner could find from county fairs of the past was a postcard from 1910. Other than that, there isn't much on record.
"We have not been able to find anything," he said. There was a small fair at the Harrison County Fairgrounds when the facility opened in the 1990s, but Skinner said there's never been a county fair -- with carnival rides, 4-H exhibits, arts and crafts and entertainment -- at the venue.
Skinner said the fair should kick off Sept. 7 with a Christian music-themed day. Gospel and Christian bands -- both locally and nationally known -- will take the stage for festivalgoers looking to enjoy song and worship.
Sept. 8 will be family night, and Sept. 9-10 the rodeo is coming to town. Sept. 11 will be a tribute to military, first responders and police, Skinner said.
Live entertainment will take the stage throughout the weekend. Skinner said he hopes to book country music artists Tracy Lawrence and Easton Corbin.
The supervisors approved a motion to guarantee those dates and waived the initial rental fee. There will be free general admission.
"It's spreading out there pretty fast," he said. The event's Facebook page already has more than 1,200 likes.
If anyone is interested in being a vendor or sponsor for the fair, contact Skinner at 313-5828

Sen. Mary Landrieu's apparent pro-oil drilling, pro-additional state revenues advocacy represents just another disingenuous attempt on her part to appear to be something that she isn't during an election year.
Landrieu addressed two of the biggest issues for Louisianans, increasing domestic oil production and revenues sharing of federal money to the states, in her statement in opposition to her own party's House colleagues' plan modeled after one onto which she signed with (now) 19 other senators. Her plan largely is cosmetic and would do little other than shift money from energy consumers in the public to favored environmental causes of Democrats but even so the small difference with the plan backed by House Democrats, revenue sharing removed from theirs, brought her rebuke.
But we must understand the additional sham she is perpetrating other than her original plan. House Democrats leaders say their version can't include revenue sharing because it would violate the "pay-as-you-go" (PAYGO) rules re-established in Congress at the beginning of 2007 courtesy of Democrat campaign pledges. They sounded impressive: if legislation reduces predicted revenues, spending must be cut to match.
However, PAYGO as a concept has been violated by Democrats so much they would make Storyville of a century ago look like a nunnery. From the start its form was riddled with loopholes and exceptions and since then it has been ignored on numerous occasions. In fact, at the end of last year Landrieu's Senate Democrats gave up on it, ending the pretense to show its real purpose is to be used as an excuse to prevent permanent tax reductions from being realized while creating the chimera of fiscal responsibility.
Still, the House Democrats continue to prop up this charade which is what provided Landrieu the perfect excuse to try to demonstrate she cares about Louisiana. She knew House Democrats could use PAYGO as an excuse to ignore her, even as they have routinely waived its applicability in the past. In exchange, she comes across making an apparently bold statement allegedly showing she's not a slave to the party line and bringing more attention to her bogus plan.
If the heat gets too much for Democrats on the drilling issue, their House contingent simply will waive PAYGO again and go along with the plan, making Landrieu look even more heroic which she desperately needs in her quest to fight off Republican state Treasurer John Kennedy for reelection. Voters must recognize the manipulative game she is waging here on two levels: first in trumpeting a plan that does little-to-nothing to bring down energy prices in the short- or long-term, then being made to appear courageous in fighting for federal dollars.
As Landrieu's lifetime voting record shows, she consistently sticks with the Democrat left contrary to the policy preferences of Louisiana's majority, even on the issue of more domestic production. No amount of gamesmanship on her part changes that fact.

Factors Influencing the Recruitment Process
Job recruitment is the process in which an organization or a person through the human resource manager tends to acquire employees for itself. Prospective workers are encouraged to apply then through scope recruitment the fitting ones are chosen. The procedure links the potential employers with job seekers. You can observe the information about job recruitment
by following the link.
Below are the general factors that lead to the recruitment process.
Recruitment Policy.
This is an internal framework that provides guidelines on the objectives of the recruitment process through recruitment programs. It affects the procedure since it allows for whether to get the new employees from the internally or externally.
Size of the Organization.
Depending on how big or small the firm is, you may want to acquire more employees. In a case where the business wants to expand by maybe acquiring another company or opening a branch, then it will need to hire more employees. Pick out the most interesting info about job recruitment
With time, technology is advancing at a very high rate and in such a case machinery is replacing human capital. The computers can now be set and do a lot of which would otherwise be done by human labor. Thus, technology indirectly affects the recruitment process.
The firm will put into consideration of the charges that it will incur when trying to hire employees and most of the time they will weigh on the cheapest channel to have potential workers on board.
Supply and Demand.
Sometimes there are more professionals in the market than the number you need. On the other hand, there may be a limited number of a people that you need and in that case, supply and demand do not match. More supply will enable the process of recruitment to be smooth while in the case of lower supply the management may need to utilize the available personnel by training them accordingly to meet the organization's needs. Learn more about job recruitment
Social Political Environment.
The government can come up with ways in which it bars employment of certain legally wanted persons or encourages recruiting a given people to let's say regarding gender and sometimes people with disabilities may have a better chance at work. Also, the trade unions may have a say on the regulations on employment giving minimum freedom to managers to do the recruitment.
Each firm wants the best-qualified workforce to be a part of their organization. To be on the same page recruiters tend to adopt techniques used by their rivals.

Pink Palm Springs Wedding at Colony 29
When having a desert wedding, incorporating bright color is practically essential to match the sunny setting. And this couple wasn't shy about color! Their Palm Springs wedding at Colony 29 is bright and beautiful! Hot pink peonies, peach bridesmaid dresses, and hints of blue here and there made for the perfect combination! The florals were truly a focal point of the decor; they popped against the landscape and took the classic white cake to a whole new level. Plus, they went perfectly well with the Bouganvillea and desert plants already on site! We hope you love the happy, sunshine-filled day as much as we do!

Conservatives unite in opposition to Mayfield new town
Nick Herbert and Sir Nicholas Soames joined local Conservative district council candidates to unite in opposition to the Mayfield new town last week (Friday 17 April).
Mr Herbert, the Parliamentary Candidate for Arundel & South Downs, and Sir Nicholas, the Parliamentary Candidate for Mid Sussex, were joined by Horsham and Mid Sussex district council candidates from in and around the proposed new town area which lies between Henfield and Sayers Common.
The local Conservatives met on the green field site where Mayfield want to build a road to access 10,000 new houses.
Mayfields' proposal is strongly opposed by the local MPs, by both Mid Sussex and Horsham district councils, and by the Conservative district council candidates.
The Conservative District Council candidates present and opposing the new town were Helena Croft (Henfield), Jonathan Chowen (Cowfold, Shermanbury and West Grinstead), Roger Clarke (Cowfold, Shermanbury and West Grinstead), Anthony Watts-Williams (Hurstpierpoint and Downs) and Colin Trumble (Hurstpierpoint and Downs).
Brian O'Connell (Henfield), John Wilkinson (Hurstpierpoint and Downs) and John Allen (Bolney) are also opposed to the new town but were unable to join the visit.
Nick Herbert said: "The number of candidates present demonstrated the size of the area and how many communities would be affected by the new town, while the number of Conservatives underlined our Party's total opposition to the plan.
"Seeing this beautiful area of countryside was another reminder of how damaging this inappropriate and unwanted development would be".

Often times we think of courage as a quality that's needed only in situations that require us to let go. Whether that's letting go of a partner, a job, a home, a way of life, or a way of being for example.
Yet, equally as important, and far less spoken about, is the courage required to move towards something. To embrace or choose a new way of life, a new job, a new partner, a new geography, a new and unfamiliar way of operating in the world.
We can call upon and embody courage to let go as well as to live. It takes as much, if not more courage to say yes as it does to say no.
Courage is yours when you need it, regardless of context.
Let go and live, as the saying goes, either way, both take courage.

Teenage refugees are having a particularly hard time adjusting to life in the U.S. While most resettlement practitioners would intuitively agree with this statement, new evidence from a study of the American Community Survey supports this point with new data.
Dr. Williams Evans of the University of Notre Dame's Wilson Sheehan Lab for Economic Opportunities (LEO) drew data from the 2010-2014 American Community Survey to shed some light on the social and economic assimilation of refugees. He found that high school graduation rates declined with age at entry. For refugee kids younger than 14 at the time they came to America, the high school graduation rates were similar to the U.S.-born. In contrast, graduation rates for refugee children older than 14 years were significantly worse compared to the U.S.-born. The adjustment struggles of older teens, Dr. Evans theorized, is likely due to language barriers, resulting in LEO's recommendation to direct scarce resettlement resources at older teens.
The LEO research team, including Dr. Evans and his research assistant Danny Fitzgerald, discussed the (yet unpublished) study results in the context of a Nov. 15, 2016 a brown bag meeting at the USCCB. The researchers' first major finding related to the cost of resettlement, which was discussed in a recent blog post. The research project involved looking at roughly 18,000 refugees who entered the country between 1990 and 2014. Fitzgerald combed through census data to locate people entering the country as refugees, then tracked their employment, education, dependence on social programs, tax history and other factors.Stay tuned for a final post in this three-part series on the MRS refugee research blog.
While much of the research in this area focuses on adult newcomers, the nexus of language and career outcomes is well-understood. Observing Colorado refugees over a period of 5 years, the Refugee Survey & Evaluation Study of 2016 finds a significant correlation between English language proficiency and integration successes. And the Brookings Institute's Jill Wilson found in 2014 that adults with limited English proficiency earned 25 to 40 percent less than their English proficient counterparts. In sum, English proficiency is a strong predictor of social integration and workplace successes.

ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) — The Minnesota Chamber of Commerce is suing the city of Minneapolis over its ordinance to raise the minimum wage to $15 by 2024.
The lawsuit filed Friday alleges that Minneapolis' ordinance conflicts with existing state law and asks the court to prevent its enforcement.
Chamber president Doug Loon says a patchwork of local laws is burdensome, especially for employers with operations in multiple cities.
City Attorney Susan Segal said the city will defend against the claims, which are similar to the chamber's challenge to Minneapolis' sick time ordinance. In that case, the court sided with the city, but the chamber appealed.
Minnesota's minimum wage is $9.50 per hour and will go up to $9.65 on Jan. 1. Minneapolis' ordinance raises the minimum wage within the city to $10 per hour starting Jan. 1.

Grace Draven is a master storyteller, and she amply rewards her readers in Phoenix Unbound with a thrilling tale of love and redemption. The pervasive Krael Empire is monstrous, brutal to its citizens and permissive to its privileged. Two of the Empire's victims—the fascinating witch Gilene and the bold gladiator Azarion—plot to escape their horrific destinies. Unfortunately to succeed, they must team up to elude their fates. Anything but friends, each complements the other, their combined strengths greater than their individual talents. Azarion and Gilene are outstanding characters—fierce in their loyalties, determined in their struggles, valiant in their pursuits of freedom. The qualities they share bring them harmony with one another and, eventually, the realization that they care deeply for each other. Though unachievable scenarios abound, as they work together, they manage to surmount terrible obstacles. The swift-moving fantasy illuminates a world filled with marvelous detail—from the deadly dangers of berry picking to the divine horsemanship of the Savatar race—profound love, and astonishing adventure. Filled with action, romance, and laughter (though the novel is a dark one), Ms. Draven supplies a powerfully satisfying ending, as well as leaving us lusting for more in the series. I can't wait.

As much as the seasons pass, there are pieces that are rescued and cloned for the new season. No matter the years pass, seem to think low-cost firms. I do not know if they will be right: some of the pieces that we have seen both in store maybe once we look old ... or not?
This is the case of new jersey signed by Zara. In it we see a wolf teach their teeth with scowling but ... Do not you ring a bell? And we already presented Emanuel Ungaro in its Autumn-Winter 2011/2012 (ie over a year ago). His version was shorter, but the reason for it.
And for those who do not have sufficient number of clones that are of Isabel Marant, now they are joined by a new one: the jacket of its Autumn-Winter 2012/2013 now has a new version of the most low-cost. And is that the Pull & Bear has played for us.
What do you think?
In Jared | They are the new Balmain collection, us that of White
In Jared | Cloned and plundered: but the years pass, the classic sign followed by cloning

Lucas Muñoz - Eulji-Ro Collection
Eulji-Ro is an old industrial district in Seoul, a true designers paradise regarding the variety of workshops and materials. There is an abundance of leftovers from the productions, not only from the manufacturing processes but also from the packaging they employ and is discarded after transport.
Eulji-Ro project leftover manufacturing material was recovered and revalued as furniture and illumination pieces by only using packing material. The packing material gives those leftover pieces a "brand new" sensation. The formal combination gives it a function.

Because I can
Here I am, on my London Kings Cross originating train, feeling a bit like Harry Potter in his first journey to Hogarts or whatever it's called. I must admit that I don't have much to tell you that I didn't have last night, given that I spent sleeping most of the time in between, but it's my first journey with a netbook on a train with free Wi-Fi. So, it's a bit like that old joke that goes: "Why do dogs lick their own genitals? Because they can". I'm now entering Petersborough station, how exciting! Behind me there is a little girl that talks all the time with her ear-piercing high pitch. Once in this country they used to say that "children must be seen, but not heard". What happened to that? It's all fault of these bloody foreigners polluting the culture with their heart-bleeding liberalism. By the way, the train is full of people with Fringe programs and I'm almost tempted to point them in the direction of my show. And I'm happy that the train is so packed. The beauty of obsessions is that in their light everything starts to make sense. The greed of Wall Street bankers was a necessary step towards the creation of an environment more suitable for free Fringe shows. The increase in the number of new swine flu cases stopped jut in time. Global warming can only be good for Edinburgh. I'm still not sure how to explain the Iran crisis and the MP expenses scandal, but I'm working on it.

The story is in the headline. You all know Space Oddity, but unless you saw this Top Of The Pops performance at the time, you won't be familiar with the moment that David Bowie first got proper mass exposure on UK TV, as it's another piece of footage that went to the BBC wipers to be lost forever.
Taped the previous week on 2nd October when the song was finally threatening the Top 20 (it was released three months earlier on 11th July), Bowie's solo performance saw him accompanied by 12-string guitar and his trusty Stylophone to a backing prepared by Gus Dudgeon, synchronised to the BBC orchestra.
The performance was repeated the following week on 16th October and these showings helped the song to its peak position of #5 in November.
The 1975 reissue of Space Oddity was the first single in the UK to reach the #1 spot after having previously been a Top 5 hit.
Anyway, Space Oddity was the hit that stepped things up considerably for Bowie, even if it was almost another three years before a very different looking spaceman began his world domination via Starman on Top Of The Pops.

Fred Bertrand's supercharged SR400 is an engineering masterpiece and has close links to MotoGP via the bloke on the right – Valentino Rossi 's technician
Fred Bertrand
We all know Yard Built as Yamaha's clever way of promoting their Sport Heritage range by getting top custom builders to show what's possible with ingenuity, engineering skills and a flair for design. But it seems perverse to suggest that Krugger's super clean, supercharged SR400 Yamaha was built in a yard. It looks more like it's been created in a MotoGP race shop, where the work surfaces are clean enough to eat off and technicians use banks of computers to eek out that last split second of lap time. The MotoGP analogy isn't too wide of the mark because when Fred Bertrand, the man behind Krugger Motorcycles, agreed to collaborate with Yamaha on a Yard Built project, he took inspiration from close friend and fellow Belgian Bernard Ansiau, who happens to be a MotoGP mechanic for some bloke called Valentino Rossi.
Fred's Krugger Motorcycles is a Belgian-based custom shop with a glittering array of award-winning builds, while Bernard's CV is littered with MotoGP legends, having previously prepared the racing machines for Yamaha greats such as Wayne Rainey, Kenny Roberts, Randy Mamola and Norick Abe. Fred and Bernard agreed to use the humble Yamaha SR400 to bring alive the racing spirit of the 1970s in a tribute to the Yamaha TZ machines and also to celebrate Bernard's career. Compared to modern day 'plug and play' MotoGP, the '70s spirit was a very different – a time when technicians ported cylinders, changed carb jets and welded frames – much more in keeping with the custom builder of today. As you might expect from a build inspired by the pinnacle of MotoGP, Fred has given this little SR400 engine (97mm bore x 62.7mm stroke for 399cc) some serious work.
The most noticeable difference is the beautiful Aisin 300 supercharger with its custom- built plenum chamber. Fred says: "After I built NURBS (the Tron- like six-cylinder BMW K1600 projectile from 2014) I'd had enough of big bikes for a while. I was a little bit bored with them and I love the smaller bikes so I decided to embark on this project, based on the SR400. "It was easy enough to fit the supercharger into the space on the SR but the challenge was to machine everything to be able to run the belt drive for the supercharger with the original rotor/magneto. The engine runs a slightly lower compression of 8:1 (compared to the stock 8.5:1) and I had to build a plenum chamber that's 250 percent of the original engine capacity (ie, one litre). The supercharger works at three times the speed of the engine crankshaft and delivers 9.95psi of boost."
There's a hand-built, one-off stainless steel, swept back exhaust system, complemented by an S&S 48mm carb in place of the fuel injection system. "I did the initial calculations to set the system up and then it was a question of fine-tuning it. It makes a reliable 45bhp (compared to the stock 27bhp). The engine never stops accelerating. It's really nice to ride," says Fred. The beautifully polished forks, sitting in equally polished stock yokes, have been lowered and balanced with a set of Fox shocks at the rear. Wire wheels are shod with a set of Dunlop K81s, inspired by the first tyre to lap the Isle of Man TT course at over 100mph.
Fred's obsession is evident all around the SR400. Switches and grips sit behind a tiny custom cowl at the front above a modified top triple clamp and custom handlebars. The single disc front brake (and clutch) are by Beringer, adding some power over stock to match the supercharged 400 motor. The standard SR400 fuel tank has been kept, but reworked narrower and longer with the filler cap relocated centrally. It now resembles an OW31 TZ750 gas tank, while a custom tail unit hides all the electrical components. Fred adds: "The standard frame has an oil-carrying single tube spine, but I've added frame rails to run along the base of the tank and modified the subframe to suit the seat."
A stunning interpretation of the Yamaha speedblock colours in blue and white (tipping a nod to the '70s Gauloises livery of the French Sonauto Yamaha importer) completes the colour scheme, with the names of all the riders in Bernard's racing career written into the design. By why not the more famous yellow and black Yamaha livery, or even the red and white? "Because this is Bernard's original old colours," says Fred. "The livery was his choice." "This really is a unique piece of art," said Yamaha's Marketing Coordinator Cristian Barelli. "I think it's impossible to have a custom machine that lives and breathes our racing history better than this."

After a short 2 and 1/2 hour flight, we ended up in another world. First thing we've seen were four bunnies in the field at the airport as we were taxing after arrival. The city is absolutely beautiful and people are super friendly and nice. Everyone celebrates "great weather" of 54 degrees F. We complain but then have to explain that we are from Hawaii…
One of our favorite parts is the architecture – all these gorgeous brick buildings with lacquered doors colored red, yellow, green, and black.
Landscaping is immaculate and looks especially beautiful with blooming fruit trees, magnolias, tulips, poppies, and many other flowers all over the city.
After an unexpectedly delicious lunch, we went to the National Gallery which had an interesting collection of Irish and European art. It was very well organized and we had an excellent free guide.
The top exhibits were this work by Vermeer.
And this Velazquez – set in Andalusia!
We goofed around in the park which was also beautiful.
The city is flat and toddler-friendly. As long as you can catch him and carry him off.
To be continued…

Summer's end
The end of summer has brought the end of the drought! The grass is green and growing again in the garden and the sun is lower in the sky. We are ready for those golden days of autumn as they mean one thing to gardeners: it's time to divide and transplant plants!
Yesterday we started on the hostas. Despite their sunny location and having been browsed on by the deer, they have been thriving! We divided several huge clumps into gallon pot sized plants. We will sell as many as we can at our Plant Sale during the Doors Open event on September 29th and plant the rest in the garden.
The Ranger Cabin won't be open for the event this year but Sharon and Fran thought the walkway should be uncovered and cleaned anyhow. It's starting to look less abandoned .... especially with a plant on the doorstep.

The Judges
Vincent C. Morreale founded Paracelsus Films in 2007 with borrowed equipment and a tiny budget of only $500. His first production, Project Nephilim: Salvation brought together a team of over two dozen cast and crew that took nearly four years to complete. Since then, Paracelsus Films has grown to include a string of award winning short films, which include past Flash Film Festival winners Death on Toast, A Spritz in Time and The Settlement. He is a regular participant of the 48 Hour Film Festival as well as Boston Indie Mafia, where most recently his short film prequel Project Nephilim: From the Beginning received an award for Outstanding Visual Effects. He is perhaps best known, however, as the producer and director of the award winning web series, Staying in Boston, which took home two awards and 7 nominations at the 2015 LA Webfest.
Christine Banna is a professional photographer, artist, colorist and lighting designer whose design work was featured in the short film Christmas After the Zombocalypse. Additionally, she contributed color correction to the final episodes of Project Nephilim: Salvation and the 2012 48 Hour Film Project: Silent, But Not Invisible.
Danielle Lucas founded Paracelsus Films' sister company, Boston Actors Theater in 2004, and currently serves as its Producing Artistic Director. She has appeared in three films with Paracelsus Films, including the award winning short, The Settlement, and the original web series Project Nephilim: Salvation. Behind the camera, she serves on Paracelsus Films' Advisory Board, and was the casting director for the award winning web series Staying in Boston, and short film Project Nephilim: From the Beginning.
As a theatre director she has received acclaim for the Boston professional premiere of Mary Zimmerman's Metamorphoses, Where Moments Hung Before, and Sex, Drugs, & Rock n Roll. Recently she directed/choreographed Your Wildest Dreams for Heart & Dagger Productions. As an actor she has toured the country, done summer stock, regional theater, multiple film projects with sister companyParacelsus Films and returned to singing on stage in Polaroid Stories last season. She is passionate about supporting local artists and the Boston community.

2018 was another amazing year, Elon Musk launched a Tesla Roadster into space, either demonstrating Tesla's new delivery system or that Elon Musk has too much time on his hands. Australia got a new Prime Minister, again, making the job of Prime Minister the most undesirable and short-term job in government and youth began to do parliament's job by making their voices heard at student organised protests and in a lot of ways were doing a better job of representing Australia's views, however, what did the year look like for the autism community?
Exciting News
Due to countless people recommending I write a book I have decided to do just that however, I am no author hence this post today, in order to make this project a reality I will need to hire what is called a ghostwriter. If you are interested in helping make this project a reality head to www.gofundme.com/an-awetistic-journey and be sure to share this with your family and friends as there is a long way to go before I can publish the book.Thank you Bryce Pace Autism Advocate, Blogger, Speaker

Lots of Feels in Adorable McDonald's TVC
Raising children oftentimes requires a healthy sense of humor. Many times parents have found themselves in seriously ridiculous situations, brought about by a particularly mischievous tyke, where the only suitable response is laughter. How about that time, for example, when you just had the living room wall painted and your daughters decided to show off their Van Gogh abilities and draw up a massive landscape? Or how about that time when they thought that snow looks very much like powder, and turned their bedroom into a winter wonderland by tossing powder all over the place? In both instances, the kids showed how marvelously creative they are. So should you reprimand them for making a mess or appreciate their imaginative thinking and just laugh!
McDonald's Philippines' latest television commercial, "Laging Mahal ni Nanay at Tatay," perfectly captures such moments. Reworking Sugarfree's Hari ng Sablay, the accompanying music sang by a child is totally heartwarming!
Oh, I did my best po nanay
Oh, todo bigay po ako tatay
Pasensiya ka na
Kung minsan ako'y natataranta
Minsan ako'y sumasablay
Minsan hindi makasabay
Mahal pa rin ni nanay at tatay
Kahit kailanman
Laging mahal ni nanay at tatay
Ako ang hari
Ako ang hari
Watch it now for some awesome, heartwarming feels! We dare you not to cry!

At the beginning of every season I say to clients to write a list of 5 items that you need and/or want in your wardrobe for that season. Every season I share mine with you to give you inspiration for your list and to show you that by sticking to the list it can ensure a number of things -
1. Your wardrobe gets updated and so does your style every season.
2. You don't impulse buy because you only buy from your list.
3. Take your time making your list to ensure that you are making considered choices that are right for areas that are missing or need updating in your wardrobe.
4. You can stick to a budget when you have made your list, carefully costing through each item and therefore knowing what you can spend on your style that season.
5. The list keeps you focused and clear on how many new items you need as you do not need more than 5 to update your wardrobe if you have your wardrobe organised.
My list always has a mix of wardrobe staples I need to update because they are worn, outdated or generally need updating but will last a few years, with some trend/fast fashion items that might only serve their purpose for this season but I will wear and love for the next couple of months.
I have BIG LOVE for Autumn as I love the endless knitwear, coats, boots, scarves and layering styles you can produce out of only a handful of key items. I have already started buying my Autumn updates, if you haven't and you need help with your list or your shopping then contact me for a consultation or to book your online shop in for September and October.
My Autumn shopping List
1. Check blazer
Going to be the most versatile piece in my wardrobe this season, this check blazer from Mango, £69.99 will never be off my back!
2. Statement knitwear
I have BIG LOVE for this jumper from Hush, £130 and statement knitwear is always a good investment every season. I can't wait to wear this with jeans, skirts and over dresses.
3. Floral maxi dress
Autumn florals are hot again and I am hankering after a maxi dress to wear with flats now and boots and tights later, also layered up with chunky cardigans in Winter. This one from &other stories, £110, ticks all the boxes and will also look great with a leather biker.
4. Loafers
Featured on last week's blog post as an August update, I need some new loafers to wear with jeans and skirts this season, these ones have studs for the perfect style update from Topshop, £29.
5. Red Bag
I've been searching for the perfect red bag for months now, I think this one ticks all the boxes for my new season cross over bag update, JCrew, £128.00.

Getting busy
So… yeah… I've been busy. What's new? With as much as I've attempted to cut out of my life over the past few years so I could have more hours each week to relax and enjoy life… just seems there are others filling in those voids. But, I'd have to say that those things that have been and continue to be added to my life are usually exceedingly awesome compared to those things that have been squeezed off as I venture down the narrow path. So, it's all good :)
Being "off" physically for about 10 days following the Super Bowl seemed to throw a wrench in things. Didn't get to the gym much; didn't have much energy; had to sleep more (which I did sometimes and not others)… But the remaining .25% of unhealthiness I took with me up to Au Sable over the weekend vanished in the fresh air of northern Michigan… or vanished in the blessing of Christian fellowship… or vanished in response to persistent prayer. Whichever reason gives God more glory, I'm good with. Ultimately, I'm simply grateful it's gone. I had a fever Feb. 4 and 5, but it broke the night of the 5th, with me waking up at about 2:30 to very wet sheets and pillows. Noting the uncomfortable environment, even in my grogginess, I abandoned my bed for my couch and slept the rest of the night away. So, the chills were gone, but a runny nose and cough persisted. The last 3 or 4 days my runny nose stopped running, but I still had congestion and an annoying cough.
Anyway, enough talk about sickness–an issue Jesus already settled.
There's lots of things I could talk about but don't have time to get into. I'm part-way through about 5 books right now and all of them have notable material to discuss. I recently finished an eye-opener called Needless Causalities of War by John Paul Jackson. It's about understanding our authority and recognizing boundaries in spiritual warfare. It's a quick read and I recommend it.
I'm really excited about my current book of focus: God's Unfolding Battle Plan, by Chuck Pierce. It details what awaits the Bride the next seven years and what it looks like to be prepared for the trials and tribulations that are coming. The Lord's been stirring my heart to grow in understanding of prophecy, and eschatology in particular, so I think this book, which I purchased several months ago, is going to be a real timely one for me.

Have you decided what you are going to do on the 29th? About your comment: At least I am getting to a point where it is more of a memory then something that is a fresh wound in my life. I think it was funny now, but going through it...I don't wish it on anyone. Needless to say, I will just have to add it to the book I am writing (or planning to write). Because you can't make this kind of stuff up! It was probably a blessing in disguise and I am calling it that. My new place is so much nicer and calm and critter free!Reply

Hi Joel! I saw your mom at a Bible Study and asked about you...there's so much to update you, as you can imagine since Katie is a senior this year! We always think of you with fondness as we remember what a positive influence you were on the kids. Briefly, Justin is a pilot at WMU in his 3rd year(he's 21). He loves flying, drums for His House, and enjoys college life as he shares a big old house in K-zoo w/5 other guys! Next year he will room with a cousin, who presently attends WMU as a freshman. Jessi just switched to Art as her major at GVSU - she started as an advertising major with her strong writing and art skills, but just wasn't happy there. So she's loving painting! She lives with 3 other gals and is going to Tahiti over spring break w/Campus Ministries (She'll be 20 soon). Katie has been blessed with a fabulous singing voice - truly a gift! She's singing in the All-state Honors Choir on May 10 at WMU...only 3 kids in the history of Bad Axe High School have ever made it there (by audition)! Presently looking at colleges for her - so many choices (She's 18 now). Consequentially, my life has changed incredibly since my kids were my career. But it's all good. Much love in Christ, Sheri LynnReply

So, when you are pregnant people tell you all the horrors of what that baby will do to your body. I am lucky enough not to have many to pass on, maybe a bit of heartburn, not keeping the ample pregnancy boobs and bum, and maybe the chocolate craving that stuck around after Ada arrived. My biggest challenge post-pregnancy, however, was my hair.
Now, I'll be honest, I was no rapunzel or even just blessed with long, thick locks. But my pregnancy hair was nearing the closest I'd ever be to the above description.
I have also always been one for changing up my look now and then, Brown/blonde, short/long, fringe/no fringe.
But when Ada turned 4 months my hair started coming out in handfuls. Whenever I washed my hair my hands would be filled with hair. I was luckier than some as I know some ladies who lose clumps and have bald spots, mine came out evenly but a lot. It looked limp, fine and thin.
I, quite stupidly, continued to have it bleached and then had extensions fitted - TWICE. Then a lack of care for my hair in the next few months partly due to the sparse amount of time Mama's have to dedicate to themselves. Over the course of 6 months, my hair was ruined.
On a visit to a hairdressers, I decided I could no longer bleach it and needed to look after it a little. Out came the extensions and on went the colour. It was too much too soon. I was darker than I ever had been and very short very quickly. The hairdresser was not at fault it was just my comfort zone that was stretched to its limit.
I turned to Freddie's of Rawtenstall, a hairdressers my mum had always been to and I had been to on and off for around 20 years. They are incredible.
"I know you said you were dark but I thought you were being dramatic" were the words that Matt, my stylist, greeted me with. He knows me well and knew it wasn't "me."
That visit and the next I was transformed with a copper, bob complete with fringe - still not a look I was overly happily with but I needed to live with it, care for it and give it a bit of love. It was a means to an end and a self-inflicted punishment for not investing in my hair.
I am sat in the hairdressers once again today, 4 months after that big week of change and have been so careful to stay away from straighteners, taken hair supplements, bought quality shampoos and conditioners and as a reward, I am being allowed to return to a little bit of normality. (See below for today's makeover - they are miracle workers)
I will be working on a collaboration with Forest and Shore in the coming weeks to trial their Hallelujah Hair Oil. This is a natural, organic and cruelty free product that aims to deeply repair damaged hair. Worth a try!
I feel compared to what some other warrior women are left to adapt to post pregnancy, hair worries are pretty superficial but I know for many women it's something that is unexpected and very noticeable. Confidence takes a huge knocking when you've had your baby and you almost develop a new identity. I have had many identities since Ada arrived and it's taken some real "suck-it-up" moments to face the world some days but hoping that taking those steps back and taking time to look after it again that that will be soon all behind me. No just grow hair...grow!
My top tips:
1. Invest in quality shampoos and conditioners - not supermarket buys
2. Take biotin - a supplement my mum read up on and it seems to really have helped
3. Ditch the heat...I only used straighteners for curling (oh the irony) but it's heat all the same. Apart from special occasions, they remained in the cupboard. I also let my hair naturally dry when I knew I wasn't going anywhere.
4. Apply a treatment!
5. Find a miracle working hairdresser that knows their stuff and you!
See ya real soon lovelies...

Compared to the rest of India, the craze for becoming a Civil Servant is relatively less in NE youth. It may be because of the reason that there is lack of awareness among the youth about this profession and also because there is not much facilities available locally to prepare for such an examination be it quality resource persons or materials or quality institutions. It is well understood that to transform a society we need to transform individuals first.
NE-IAS has taken up this bounden duty of providing quality professional training to NE youth especially in the domain of Civil Services Coaching both for State and UPSC Civil Services Examination.
I wish to congratulate them on this commendable achievement and also appeal to NE youth to pursue civil service as a career because it is through such a vocation only they can bring a social change.

How to Self Promote IRL Without Being Annoying
whenever i'm going anywhere, even somewhere fancy and I'm only packing a clutch, i keep business cards on me. phone, id, lipstick, credit card, keys, business cards. check check, check check check.
i get myself looking "on brand" and walk out the door. if anyone compliments your look or something that you are wearing, ask them about themselves and what they do and ask them for a card. asking them for a card means that you are interested in what they do (it's also a great way to get a cute boy's phone number without having to awkwardly ask for it). when they start to fish through their bag for their card, go for yours and make the exchange. it never has to be an awkward situation. play it cool, give them a brief elevator pitch about what you do:
when people ask me what i do i always respond with the same answer. i'm a fashion designer. i make super fun, flirty, retro, rock and roll pieces. i work with a lot of musicians, it's fun. (they'll usually interject and then you can let them know that "this is one of my skirts, see it's reversible!" wham bam. being a walking advertisement for yourself is so important if your clothes are wearable in your day to day life. when i begin explaining my work to other people they understand because the aesthetic of my business is the same aesthetic in which i am dressed and put together. it is not essential that this is how you live your life, but being able to do that has absolutely proven key in my own self promotion. being able to casually make those pitches and start a conversation with anyone is key in life and an absolute necessity in owning your own business, even though Sofia Amoruso will tell you differently.
having a business card that leaves an impression, or leaving them with anything that leaves an impression is so important. people are handed things every single day, especially if they're at a party. the next day they'll open their wallet and a bunch of things will come falling out. you need yours to make an impression and remind them of you. be cute and clever and not too needy you got it.
the internet is an important key in business in 2016, but still just as important is face to face human interaction. it is a skill that is getting lost in the world that we live in, maybe i'm old fashioned, but being able to hold a conversation and enjoy a person's company is a great skill to have ;)

We Call Them Beautiful, the first full-length collection by KC Trommer, was released in the spring of 2019 by Diode Editions.
Rejoice all lovers of the word for the generous, gorgeous, and timely gathering that is KC Trommer's We Call Them Beautiful. The world needs these poems right now for they are fostered alike by Beauty and by Dread and they do what only real poems can: they leave us changed. We come away from reading them somehow feeling like the recipients of a benediction that makes us more merciful, more tender towards the world, towards ourselves. —Lorna Goodison, Poet Laureate of Jamaica
To be "broken and mended, broken and mended," the poet, KC Trommer, writes for all of us, as she fearlessly and poetically confronts the corrosion—and tender maternity—of love's scarred and unfathomable existence. —Emily Fragos, author of St. Torch
Assured and masterful in its compassion, KC Trommer's poetry is a salvage and positively shimmering balm, always open to the quite miraculous, the delicate negotiations in realms of home, heartbreak, the Cape and city blocks, layers of subways and museum havens. If you are like me, repeating to myself her turns of capture and release, you will find these lines etched long in memory: these poems are a net of light, piece-by-piece bringing up the best in all of us and unmistakably making the day sing. —Douglas A. Martin, author of Acker
KC Trommer's brave debut explores the power in doing: seeing, naming. touching, marveling, grieving. Some of the most heart-wrenching poems in We Call Them Beautiful explore divorce—the rage, alienation, and disappointment. As Trommer writes, "Now is a matter of thinking of what tense/ I choose to know you in." As these poems wisely suggest, past, present, and future are all imperfect, but there is a hopeful courage in the voice: "Wherever I go, I am this woman." This woman—this poet—is a force. —Maggie Smith, author of Good Bones
Among KC Trommer's poems, one finds emergences, tests of bravery, and dollops of trust. Her poem's utterances—sometimes turning on display, sometimes mercurially floating in a consuming element . . . sometimes nervous peerage into traps, sometimes celebrations of the security of confederation—are always a suspension of self-possession; hers are songs of the unrepressed and the eternal. —Scott Hightower, author of Self-evident

Sox News heads to SeriesFest!
I'm thrilled to announce that Sox News, our little-pilot-that-could, has been named an official selection of SeriesFest. Strange how this show, which began as hyperbole and parody, feels more like documentary with each passing week. I'm quite excited (and curious!) to see what kind of reception we'll receive now, 8 months and 16 failed Republican presidential candidates since our last public screening. Onward, to Denver!

It starts with a phone call or email. After that we meet in person; we don't start work with anyone until we've actually met. Good chemistry is just as important to us as creating great work. A new project is also the beginning of a relationship and we need to see eye to eye from the start or it just won't work.
After we've agreed to work together, we will send you a detailed cost proposal for the work required. When this is accepted we research the category in which you operate, exploring your competitors and customers. Then we put together a presentation that includes your brief as we understand it, with any added information that we think is relevant. We will also present three creative directions for your new identity. These will incorporate mood boards which help us both agree parameters for the creative work, so that there are no huge surprises.
The next stage is concept generation. We present three concepts, demonstrated across three or four touchpoints (business card, poster, website home page for e.g.). Concepts usually range from slightly safer through to more revolutionary, depending on the brief.
The third stage is refinement. After you choose a concept we will pull it apart and put it back together again, considering all feedback and interrogating every aspect of it until it looks perfect. After we present the refined branding, we will ask you for any last tweaks that are needed before finalisation.
The last stage is rollout. We supply all versions of your branding as a set of digital files and send any physical materials to the printers. We also provide full print liaison to ensure that everything is printed correctly.
All design agencies use the collective "we" on their websites and "we" are no exception, but there is a difference. "We" can sometimes mean that the people that you have meetings with aren't the ones working on your project, which can lead to problems. Not so with us.
ATTFIELD was started by Simon Attfield to provide a personal service where clients get to work directly with a creative director with over 20 years experience. Simon is, and always will be, the core creative on all projects. This is not only faster and more efficient but more cost effective and rewarding for both parties.
So why do we say "we"? Whilst Simon will be the main person on your project, generating ideas, creating your branding, attending meetings, he may also engage the services of some of our trusted pool of experienced freelance illustrators, strategists, animators and artworkers. Especially if it means a better, more expedient result.
