I Don't Celebrate The Fourth Of July, But I Want My Kids To
My 6-year-old son loves America. And no, I am not exaggerating when I say he loves it. He can tell you when each state was added to the U.S., what their capitol is, and what their state is known for. Last year I introduced him to the Hamilton soundtrack, and he was so amazed by Alexander Hamilton's story that he began researching all the Founding Fathers, which led him to learning about every President. At this point, he has an extensive recollection of why most presidents were elected, how long their terms were, where they were born. He's fallen completely in love with America, which is the opposite of how I feel about this country. I don't celebrate the Fourth of July, but I want my kids to. It makes things interesting, for sure.
I grew up celebrating the Fourth like most people. My parents never made a big deal out of it, but we'd always barbecue and go watch fireworks. We didn't talk about why the holiday was important, and as a child I didn't have any particular attachment to it. When I entered adulthood, I became less and less eager to celebrate a holiday that seemed, to me, more about getting together to eat food and wear flag-themed clothing than anything else. The last time I truly celebrated was a few years ago, when I was in California, I went to a Fourth of July party. It was fun, but there was little emphasis on the actual holiday. There was, however, a lot of emphasis on beer and cake though. I remember thinking I was doing what everyone does on the Fourth, just partying, and in a round about way appreciating the country I grew up in.
Except I've never really appreciated America. I've tried hard to, but I'm reluctant to have any love or appreciation for a country that's shown me that my existence as a black person is a burden. That reminds me at every possible turn that I'm still not as free as the majority of white people in America. For the last four years, I've been learning about being black in America, trying to understand how white supremacy has seeped into every part of my life and the lives around me. How, because of white supremacy, we've completely overlooked people of color — not keep people of color down, but to convince us that we are all "equal." But I've learned that no, we're not all equal. The freedoms we celebrate on the Fourth of July, those awarded to the white people in America in 1776, were not for everyone in America. These freedoms were, just as history tell us with legislation like the Three-Fifths Compromise and Jim Crow legislation, given to the people whose skin color offered them privilege. It was not for black people. And at the very heart of it, this is exactly why I don't celebrate the Fourth.
I know that what may be considered a routine police encounter has the potential to be life-threatening to people of color. I know that I don't want to celebrate a holiday that doesn't include black people.
In 2016, information and knowledge are a lot easier to access than they were 10 years ago. When I was younger I believed that we were living in post-racist America, and that living this way meant that we really were living in the land of the free. But my understanding of my own blackness has moved forward in the last 10 years. Now, I know better. I've been witness to the murders of black men and black women. I've watched those around me raise their black sons to be men far before they're ready. I've been challenged to do that with my own son. I know we aren't living in post-racist America anymore. I know that we're in the middle of a fight. I know that what may be considered a routine police encounter has the potential to be life-threatening to people of color. I know that I don't want to celebrate a holiday that doesn't include black people.
This is the first year my son is excited because he actually feels a connection to America, to the celebration of its freedom, and as his mom, I want to honor and celebrate that.
But my son is 6. And my son is proud of America. He thinks its history is rich, is fascinating, and is brilliant. He isn't wrong. The feats America has accomplished are brilliant. It is a country that was created out of the desire to be free, out of the desire to have choices. I will never pretend that how America was established and built is nothing short of amazing, and I'm not ungrateful to live here. Its just that the Fourth of July doesn't feel like a holiday for me. It wasn't until June 19, 1865 that the war was declared over, and slaves were told they'd be set free. That is a day I celebrate, a day I've been introducing my children to.
For the last three years I've kind of rolled my eyes when we've been invited to celebrate the Fourth at friends' homes. I've insisted on telling my children just why I don't think we should celebrate. But this year is different. This is the first year my son is excited because he actually feels a connection to America, to the celebration of its freedom, and as his mom, I want to honor and celebrate that.
Because of my son, I am learning to have a new appreciation for the country I call home.
As a parent who feels mainly disappointed by America, I've struggled with accepting my son's love of a place that still sees him as Other. I've struggled with listening to him speak so proudly of the Founding Fathers, wanting so badly to interject and tell him how they all kept slaves, that we are descendants from slaves. It's not that he doesn't already know this, because he does, but I don't think he's at the point where he understands the magnitude of what slavery was and how it's affected his life. And I'm realizing, slowly, that I'm actually OK with that. I'm coming around to listening more to what he has to say about different battles that took place before America actually became its own country. I've stopped rolling my eyes when he dances around me explaining how in Chicago, you can go up into a tower and see Indiana, Wisconsin, and Michigan. Because of my son, I am learning to have a new appreciation for the country I call home.
I'm still not going to celebrate the Fourth of July this year, but I'm excited to watch both my children get celebrate this holiday together. They understand growing up in America in a way I never did. Part of me hopes that maybe in the future they'll feel differently about the holiday, and perhaps put more emphasis on the day black people were actually freed. Until then though, I hope they continue to learn about America. Not just the bad history, but also the history that has brought us to where we are today.

Being in the crazy stage of life that I'm at right now (with three young energetic kids and a growing small business), I don't have a lot of extra time to bake, even though I really enjoy it and feel that it's important to home-make most of our baked goods and desserts. That's why I love this berry crisp recipe — I always have either fresh or frozen berries on hand, as well as oats, butter and sugar!
I threw this dessert together in about five minutes on Fathers Day (when I realized that I had completely forgotten to make a dessert!) and it baked while we were eating supper. Everyone loved it (and it made enough that we had lots leftovers). In fact, the morning after, I had it for breakfast with some plain Greek yogurt (which cut the sweetness a little bit and added some protein).
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Butter a 9-inch glass baking dish
Gently combine the berries with the sugar, flour and cinnamon; place in the prepared baking dish
Topping: Combine oats, flour, sugars and salt in a bowl. Use a pastry blender or 2 forks to work in the butter until topping resembles coarse meal. Sprinkle evenly over the berries.
Place the pie plate on a baking sheet. Bake in the center of the oven until the fruit is bubbling and the topping is golden brown, about 1 hour. Remove the crisp to a rack to cool slightly. Serve in dessert bowls with vanilla ice cream.

Bill Maher recapped the 2012 presidential election cycle, from the Supreme Court's Citizen United decision, to the Republican primary race and the GOP clown car that Mitt Romney had to run against, to the pick of Ayn Rand fan-boy Paul Ryan as the vice presidential nominee, to the conventions and Clint Eastwood debating an empty chair and last but not least, the debates and Mitt Romney's late attempt to pivot back to the center.
Maher wrapped up his segment with this:
MAHER: So that's it. That's the election. It is your choice America, because for me it is a win-win. If it's Obama, America wins, and if it's Romney, comedy wins.

Microsoft Corp. released a tool kit Monday that enables users of Exchange 2000 server software to build and access Web services as the company continues to further integrate its .Net initiative into its product line.
The Exchange 2000 Server Developer Enablement Kit, which is used with Microsoft's e-mail and collaboration server software, will allow developers to create Web services in XML (Extensible Markup Language). An early example of these Internet-based services included in the tool kit is an application for automatically searching a user's Exchange calendar for scheduling purposes.
The software was distributed to as many as 5,000 attendees at the Microsoft Exchange Conference, which began Monday in Orlando. The two-CD set includes the Exchange Software Development Kit, sample Exchange-based XML Web services, white papers on how to develop XML Web services and a code-centered training guide, Microsoft said.
The tools will be available to customers internationally from its Exchange Web site at http://microsoft.order-1.com/ex_developer. Microsoft is charging for shipping and handling. The company said Monday it has sold more than 94 million seat licenses of its Exchange server.
The Redmond, Wash., software maker is building its entire line of software and tool products to support XML and other Web services standards, all part of its plan to build a Web-based platform for delivering software and services. Microsoft has sped the migration to the Web-services platform by releasing tool kits for certain versions of its software that have yet to be released with XML support.
Microsoft's application development environment, Visual Studio.Net, will be released in its final version with support for building XML Web-services. Before that tool kit was first unveiled in a beta version, Microsoft had created an add-on for Visual Studio 6 that enabled users to begin toying with .Net services.
Windows .Net, the enterprise server software that will be the successor to Windows 2000, will also include Web services support when it is released early next year. That operating system is the server version of Windows XP, the desktop operating system due for widespread release Oct. 25. Microsoft has said it will release Windows.Net within six months of Windows XP.
In related news, Microsoft announced details Monday of the latest beta version of its server software that allows users to access data from Exchange 2000 on mobile devices, called Mobile Information Server 2002 (MIS 2002) Enterprise Edition.
Using Microsoft's soon-to-be-released Pocket PC 2002 software, Microsoft said MIS 2002 will allow users to wirelessly synchronize handheld devices with data stored on Exchange 2000. Pocket PC 2002, Microsoft's operating system for handhelds, is scheduled for release with hardware partners Thursday in San Francisco.
The new mobile server includes enhanced security, additional phone support, new administration tools, improved performance, new language support and an updated software development kit, the company said. Microsoft officially released the predecessor to MIS 2002, Mobile Information 2001 Server, in June. It was first announced in September of last year.
Microsoft, in Redmond, Wash., is at http://www.microsoft.com/.

When most people think of South By Southwest Interactive (see TIME's full coverage of SXSW 2012), minds drift to emerging technologies, the soft launches of new products and the street-level beta-testing of the hippest, latest app. All of which makes the sidebar I attended on the festival's second morning seem that much more remarkable. Organized by a quartet of artists committed to the value of physical objects in an increasingly digitized world, "The Present of Print: Paper's Persistence" panel was a defiantly retro twist to be found at one of the world's most forward-looking gatherings. About the time that posters were being passed around the room, demanding that attendees set aside their smartphones to recognize the tactile power of an advertisement that was composed as a work of visual art, it became clear that not everyone at SXSW adheres to the mantra that newer is always better.
In fact, numerous panels at this year's festival seemed preoccupied with the question of what's been lost to society among all these technological advancements. Several of this year's panels focused on the uncertain future of libraries, and the push to redefine and reenergize a book-oriented institution in an e-reader world. Another panel on Occupy Wall Street addressed the ways in which social media has fundamentally altered the process of protesting. And yet what's so refreshing about South By Southwest is that, in almost all these cases, a large number of brilliant thinkers are already pondering how to redefine these institutions that are being altered by technology. There's less a sense of decline in Austin than an eager push to envision the new library of the future.
(MORE: The 50 Best iPhone Apps of 2012)
Similarly, in the case of "Present of Print," the focus was less on the decline of print media than on the new, profitable ways that printed advertisements, physical maps and material photos can be used to rise above the digital fray. Which brings me back to those posters being passed around the room: Frazier Fritz Blaw is the owner of Austin's Motorblade, and he drew a stark contrast in his presentation between the most common means of advertising and promoting an event online – the flat, cumbersome pop-up ad – and the dying art of distributing artistic posters throughout a community. Not only do these full-sized, meant-for-public-admiration advertisements look and feel fundamentally different, designed both to convey information as well as to grab attention through artistic flair, but they reach the end consumer in places like concert halls, coffee shops and transportation hubs — all centers of community activity. Pop-up ads, in contrast, assault a viewer when they are typically trying to get work done. Blaw sees the elegant and communal being savaged by the clumsy and the automated.
Similarly, Nathan Kreuter, an assistant professor at Western Carolina University, addressed the evolving nature of maps. I, like most people nowadays, rely almost exclusively on a smartphone application developed by a corporation – Google – for my directions and detailed views of the surrounding landscape. But Kreuter is passionate in his praise of hand drawn, human-created maps; not only do they bring a different perspective to the countryside, but many have been created with a style and elegance that cannot be matched by computer renderings.
Travis Hartman, of Please Shoot Yourself, has also developed a decidedly modern twist to the old-school concept of the photo booth. Using a digital camera that can be set up at weddings or special functions, guests can shoot as many of their own (often madcap) portraits as they desire. Soon after, the party planners are given full access to this extensive digital library of informal photography, able to then curate and share the images with others online. It's a unique evolution of the traditional photo booth, which would print out snapshots on the spot. And while the Please Shoot Yourself proofs are indeed easily shared as a series of digital links, Hartman is passionate about the value of going through one's digital photos, curating the best of the lot and printing them out as a tangible object of one's most cherished memories. As someone who has personally been dismayed by the loss of photos with the breaking of an iPhone, or the difficulty in finding old vacation photos on an external hard drive, this focus on physical copies that can be preserved, held and displayed resonates with me.
(MORE: TIME Magazine's Best Blogs of the Year)
Beyond the purely philosophical, all three speakers pointed to thriving businesses that have resulted from this push to preserve — and celebrate — the physical. Blaw says posters are now not just short-lived marketing materials but cherished masterpieces that sell at concerts at premium prices. Kreuter says old maps are now being sold as their own works of art, representing slices of a community's history that are to be celebrated. And Hartman, who launched Please Shoot Yourself as his own small business, has seen newlyweds rapidly respond and recommend the service to others, adding the most memorable of these digital asides to their physical wedding albums.
Call it a push for preservation, a renewed interest in the past, or the latest creative strategy to make a serious profit, but "The Present of Print" made a strong case for why we all should look beyond the immediate, trendy allure of the latest digital fad.

14th Street Restaurants: The Pig Will Open May 14
From Luis Gomez. Catch his photos on Picplz and at One Photograph A Day. Follow him on Twitter @LuisGomezPhotos.
In Latin America there is a Spanish saying that translated to English goes something like this: "Each pig has its Saturday" meaning that at some point something that is to be expected will happen (must I describe it for you?). "The Pig", in this case, is the newest restaurant in the EatWell DC group. While we have known it would happen soon, we now know the date: Monday, May 14.
The Pig will be at 1320 14th Street NW, just south of Rhode Island. It is the fifth of the group, which also includes Commissary and Logan Tavern on the 1400 block of P Street NW, The Heights in Columbia Heights and Grillfish, just south of Dupont Circle on New Hampshire Avenue NW.
According to Andy Phan, EatWell DC spokesperson, "The Pig's décor will blend industrial with urban; dramatic lighting, patinas and striking art from another era and medium."
Chef Garret Fleming is ready to serve us crafted food from Eco Friendly Farms in Virginia. The Pig will be serving plates designed to be shared, as well as full entrees with a price range of $4 to $14. The drink menu will include handcrafted cocktails, American craft beers, boutique Bourbons and earth-friendly wines. It will also offer tap wines from kegs with two whites and one red on "draft."

Table of Contents
We can always use SysAdmin support to help out with our infrastructure: developing tools & maintaining sites.
Deployment Cycle
- InstallationGuidelines
- MaintenanceGuidelines
Setting up a New Instance
Eden project have 2 servers kindly donated by Zen Internet.
These run KVM to provide different virtual machines.
We use Proxmox to manage these VMs:
- Type: Fully Virtualized (KVM)
- Installation media: Debian-507-amd64-netinst.iso (if not using the template)
- Disk Storage: Images (Host1) data (Host2)
- Start at Boot: tick
- Disk type: VIRTIO
- Disk size: 22GB
- Guest Type: Linux-2.6
- Network Card: virtio
- Bridge: vmbr0
These documents are secured - ask for access if you are going to contribute:
- IP Addresses/RAM Allocations for Eden Infrastructure
- Setting up a new VM instance on Eden Infrastructure
Copy from Template
We normally copy an instance from a predefined template rather than starting with a fresh OS build.
- consider changing this with scripts similar to ISO/VM builds?
- Turn off template VM instance if on
- SSH into the host machine
If using Host1:
cd /spare/images/images
cp 106/vm-106-disk-1.raw 1xx/vm-1xx-disk-1.raw
If using Host2:
3.zcat /spare/template/vm_release.gz | dd of=/dev/data/vm-1xx-disk-1 bs=8M dd if=/dev/data/vm-106-disk-1 of=/dev/data/vm-1xx-disk-1 bs=8M
- That'll take a while. You can get it to notify progress by doing a kill -USR1 {process id of the dd}
- start your VM after the copy is complete
- Open VNC Console
- read /home/INSTALL in the vm
- Set the IP (using the spreadsheet)
Upgrading an Instance
Need to decide whether the site will be upgraded straight from Trunk, or whether upgrades are staged via a Test server.
We manage upgrades using Fabfile.
- Add the site to fabile.py
- If no keys generated yet, then generate some:
fab generate_keys
- deploy keys
fab <site> distribute_keys
- Run the upgrade (as/when required)
fab <site> deploy
Trac Maintenance
To reset tickets which have been assigned to nobody:
apache2ctl stop sqlite3 /home/sahana/trac/db/trac.db UPDATE ticket SET status = 'new' WHERE owner = '' and status = 'assigned'; .q apache2ctl start
Windows Installer
See if we can upgrade to Python 2.7 to have Foreign-Key support (#900)
Infrastructure Virtual Machine Template
- Update shell aliases: compile/pull
- convert to scripts in
/usr/local/bin(as per ISO/VM)
- convert to scripts in
- Change permissions on languages files (we don't want these being updated live by the server)
- Add maintenance site & HTML
- Rename site as xxxx.sahanafoundation.org
- To work with fabfile
- Provide a script to manage the MySQL root pw change
- change the password
- edit Eden's

- Convert to PostgreSQL? (for PostGIS)
- Update Eden
- Update Web2Py (as-required)

Industrial Scanning
Automation of Stacker/Reclaimers for Bulk Materials, iSAM AG, Germany 19.03.2010
Because of steady improvement in the performance capabilities of technological components, such as Pcs, laser scanners and orientation systems, processes and working sequences can be increasingly taken over economically and efficiently by automated controls. As a result, unmanned, fully automatic operation of stackers and reclaimers has also become economically viable. The so-called combined stackers and reclaimers for bulk materials are used where large mass flows of coal and ore have to be handled: For example, in importing and exporting ports, in coal depots in power generating stations, or material stockpiles in iron and steel works.
The patented iSAM S/R Automation System using RIEGL 3D laser scanners offers a solution for fully automatic operation of stackers/reclaimers like shown in the enclosed report. This application report is available in English and German.

Supreme Court had earlier on July 19 reserved its order
New Delhi: In a major setback for big telecom companies, the Supreme Court of India on Friday dismissed all the applications filed by Bharti Airtel and Vodafone Idea seeking a direction for correction of errors in Adjusted Gross Revenue calculation.
A bench of the Supreme Court, headed by Justice L Nageswara Rao pronounced the judgment dismissing the plea of Bharti Airtel, Vodafone Idea, for seeking direction for correction of errors in Adjusted Gross Revenue (AGR) calculation.
"We dismiss all the applications," Justice Rao said, in his verdict.
After due consideration and keeping in view the facts and figures of the cases the Supreme Court did not find any merit in the prayers of the telecom companies -- Airtel and Vodafone Idea and dismissed their applications.
Supreme Court had earlier on July 19, reserved its order after Bharti Airtel, Vodafone Idea had submitted to the Apex Court and complained that there were errors in the AGR calculation.
Senior lawyer and former Attorney General (AG) Mukul Rohatgi, appearing for Vodafone Idea, had submitted to the Apex Court, in the last hearing, "the issue was going up and down as AGR definition was not clear. We had succeeded in Telecom Disputes Settlement and Appellate Tribunal, but the judgment was set aside. Then we were imposed entire liability along with interest and penalty. Dues around Rs 58,000 crores".
While explaining to the court regarding the wrong entry, Rohatgi had cited an example stating that in one of the entries, the actual payment made was Rs 155 crores, but the Department of Telecommunications (DoT) considered it as the final and the total is around Rs 153.2 crores.
"I have paid Rs 7,854 crore. I have complied with the undertaking to pay, which I have done," Rohatgi for Vodafone Idea had said.
"I am not blaming DoT, not asking for a review," Rohtagi had told the Supreme Court.
The Supreme Court, while citing its earlier order, asked Rohatgi and said that the reassessment and reevaluation can't be done, in this case, the earlier judgment said so.
Dr. Abhishek Manu Singhvi, a senior lawyer for Airtel, in the last hearing, said that there is duplication. Several reports, audits, and checks are reported. Purely by oversight, some payments/deductions are not taken into consideration by the DoT.
"We are not blaming the department, which has not been able to take any decision with respect to our three categories," Dr. Singhvi said and made it clear to the apex court that "according to us, we have paid much more than 10%, around Rs 18,400 odd crores".
Dr. Singhvi said, "We are fully complying with the SC judgment. Now I don't want to pay thousands of crores due to these errors (of DOT)".
The Supreme Court had in its judgment in September last year granted telecom companies including Airtel Bharti, Vodafone Idea, etc a period of 10 years to clear their pending AGR dues to the Central government.
The top court had, on July 20, reserved its order on the timeline for the payment of AGR dues by telecom companies after observing that the request of telecom companies seeking 15 to 20 years for the payment of AGR dues in a staggered manner was unreasonable.
The bench was hearing a petition filed by the Central government through the DoT seeking the approval of a formula allowing telecom service providers to make annual installments of unpaid or remaining AGR dues in the next 15-20 years.

We love being able to give another life to vintage jewellery pieces. Some items require just a little love from our workshop before they're ready for their next owner, while in other cases only the gems or diamonds can be used. These special gems are available in our Vintage Gem Collection, and are ready to be set in to a new piece of jewellery.
Please keep in mind that some of these vintage and antique items cannot be replaced–either because similar gems or diamonds can no longer be sourced or because the method of manufacture is no longer in use. We strongly recommend that you insure this item with Jewelers Mutual so that in the event of loss, the policy can cover a portion of the cost to remake or credit towards a different item.
Would you like these set into another style of ring? You can purchase this ring and we can unset and re-set the sapphires and side diamonds into a custom ring or one of our made to order, multi-stone rings for just the cost of this ring plus the new setting.

Are we alone in the Universe? The expert opinion on that, it turns out, is surprisingly consistent.
"Is there other life in the Universe? I would say: probably," Daniel Zucker, Associate Professor of astronomy at Macquarie University, tells astrophysics student and The Conversation's editorial intern Antonio Tarquinio on today's podcast episode.
"I think that we will discover life outside of Earth in my lifetime. If not that, then in your lifetime," says his fellow Macquarie University colleague, Professor Orsola De Marco.
And Lee Spitler, a Senior Lecturer and astronomy researcher at the same institution, was similarly optimistic: "I think there's a high likelihood that we are not alone in the Universe."
The big question, however, is what that life might look like.

National Reconciliation Week runs annually from 27 May – 3 June
Each year National Reconciliation Week (NRW) celebrates and builds on the respectful relationships shared by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and other Australians. It is a time for all Australians to learn about our shared histories, cultures and achievements, and to explore how each of us can join the national reconciliation journey.
National Reconciliation Week is bookended by two key events in Australia's history, which provide strong symbols for reconciliation:
A brief history of National Reconciliation Week
National Reconciliation Week started as the Week of Prayer for Reconciliation in 1993 during the International Year of the World's Indigenous People and was supported by Australia's major faith communities. In 1996, the Council for Aboriginal Reconciliation launched Australia's first 'National Reconciliation Week'. In 2000, Reconciliation Australia was established to continue to provide national leadership on reconciliation. In the same year, approximately 300,000 people walked across Sydney Harbour Bridge as part of NRW, showing support for the reconciliation process.
When discussing reconciliation with students and children, a good place to start is to talk about key terms such as friendship, harmony, difference, respect, acceptance and understanding, and how these elements already function in our everyday lives.
Some starting points to ask students and children when discussing reconciliation:
It is important to consider that reconciliation means many different things to different people. In Australia and in schools and early learning services, reconciliation means working to understand and learn about different values and how we exist in many different ways, and the benefits of learning about this. An important and large part about learning about and respecting Australia's First Peoples, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
This significant anniversary commemorates 50 years since the vote to end discrimination to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in the Australian constitution by allowing the government the power to make laws for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. With the result being overwhelmingly yes (97.77%) this was a significant step towards reconciliation in Australia.
This significant step in reconciliation saw Eddie Mabo challenge the Australian legal system in recognising the right of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people as the Traditional Owners of their land. The result of this case saw the high court pass down the fact that Terra Nullius (Land belonging to no one) should never have been applied to Australia.

"The Dance Trope provided an outstanding Traditional Welcome to our foreign and local guests. The performance presented an educational and entertaining view into Australia's rich cultural heritage. Thank you for contributing a special start to our conference."
Previous Executive Director - Passports Office
"I have known Russell and Connie Dawson from the Koomurri Aboriginal dance group for a long time. I have used their professional services in community events and I have found them to be punctual, courteous and take their profession and Aboriginal dance and culture very seriously. "
Dr. Jamal Rifi
"We are most grateful to the dancers for their most professional performance of a very moving dance sequence which provided a special dimension to the ceremony. We would have no hesitation in recommending the Koomurri Dance Troupe to anyone thinking of engaging their services."

What Happened When I Wore a Full Face of Makeup for the First Time… At Age 30
My first impressions of makeup were formed in the early '90s, which is probably why I'm so afraid of it. It wasn't a great time to be too young to understand trends, but old enough to know when a look is too much: a violin teacher with aggressively permed hair gathered in banana clips, a neighbor whose heavy-handed approach to mascara made her eyelashes look like winter trees. It was a bad era for beauty, at least in the Midwest where I grew up. Dark blue eyeshadow was big for the better part of a decade, and I assure you that it looks good on almost nobody — especially not when it's spackled from lashline to browbone. I decided at a tender age that makeup made most people look worse, and not better.
Now I think makeup is great… on other people. But when it comes to my personal get-ready routine, it's rare you'll find me reaching for brushes, powders or creams to enhance my perfectly-good-enough face. Sure I OWN mascara, foundation, highlighters and the whole lot. I happen to know my way around a brow pencil too. But most days, I leave the house with nothing but a layer of moisturizer and some lipstick. If I'm going out, I might sweep a coat of mascara over my lashes, magnified to great effect by the '80s granny glasses I've been wearing since my teens. I'll wear a product or two but rarely more at once; unless it's a special occasion, you can bet I'm leaving most of my makeup bag far away from my precious punim.
But since I just turned 30 and Father Time is beginning to make me look like a tired mom (even though I don't have kids, wtf), I figured there was no time like the present to try something new. Specifically, a full face of makeup on a normal workday. In the daylight. For all to see.
Brit + Co news editor and makeup whiz Kimberly Wang instructed me to bring my supplies to the office so she could take on my transformation. I used to work for a media company that also housed a number of fashion magazines, so I happen to have an okay-sized cosmetics collection made up of industry freebies that I don't really know how to use.
Once I arrived at the office, Kim had me wash my hands and apply primer "so that your makeup doesn't slide off your face." Then I put on a layer of foundation — also with my hands, since I don't really have appropriate brushes or sponges (shrug). Kim washed the two brushes I own (sidenote: you need to clean makeup brushes?) and had me suck in my cheeks while she applied bronzer to the hollows. Then she dabbed liquid illuminator to the tops of my cheekbones and coral blush in between.
Then it was time to do my eyes. My eye pencil sharpener was broken, so Kim hacked a solution out of a weird little eyeliner brush I forgot I had and my blunt-tipped charcoal liner. She drew on cute cat eye flicks before patting bronze and plummy shadows onto my lids and filling in my brows with powder. I put on the one mascara I own (that pink tube with the green cap, you know the one) and Revlon Super Lustrous lippy in Berry Haute. My transformation was complete.
Though my day-to-day look is fairly androgynous, a full face of makeup didn't make me feel as much like a pageant queen as I thought it would. My friends on Instagram were pleasantly surprised when I selfied my "new" face; Brit + Co associate style editor (and makeup savant) Beth Wischnia noticed the makeover immediately during our cross-country video conference chat later that day. Later when I went out on the town to meet a friend for dinner, I didn't even feel self-conscious.
But it still didn't feel like me, either. This might sound weird, but I feel uncomfortable looking "pretty." I don't mind looking "weird" or "edgy" or even "boyish," but "pretty" makes me sad… it's a word for other girls, and connotes a softness and feminine-ness that doesn't jive with the way I see myself. The older I get and the more the roundness of my face gives way to sharp angles, the more I realize I feel at home in a kind of beauty that looks less put together and inviting. Less girl, more woman and, yeah, occasionally boi.
But I won't deny that I photographed better with this makeup look: brighter, more awake. And I liked looking like I put an effort into my appearance, which I probably don't usually. I don't know whether I have the patience to attempt this kind of maintenance on a regular basis, but Kim did a great job and I'd be open to trying a similar look for my next big event (hello, wedding season). Makeup, maybe we can be friends?
Have you tried a dramatic new look lately? Tell us about it @BritandCo!

How to Choose the Right Methadone Treatment Center
Methadone treatment centers are not limited to the methadone clinics where a person may have to travel miles daily to get their methadone dosage. Through a wide array of agencies, physicians, rehab centers, and affiliated hubs, opioid treatment programs (OTPs) are regulated and certified by the SAMHSA to dispense methadone for opioid addiction treatments.
Knowing how to choose the right methadone treatment center involves a few considerations that can help you get a head start in your recovery goals and needs. but, remember, adjustments can always be made as these issues will frequently change over the course of your methadone treatment.
Know What to Expect
OTP providers are monitored by the SAMHSA to ensure quality and efficacy in their treatment programs under the established system. Providing comprehensive services such as medical screening and treatment, mental health support, counseling, and a variety of behavioral therapies are just some of the recommended core services of an OTP. A list of theses providers can be found @ the SAMHSA OTP Locator website.
The SAMHSA also recommends providing psychosocial support for other unique needs to improve social functioning and the patient's quality of life such as vocational, educational, housing, and family resource access or referrals for agency assistance. Anything short of these options in service may be considered insufficient in helping to reach long term goals and maintain abstinence.
Treatment Planning
How to choose the right methadone treatment center begins with treatment planning. You may wish to participate in a short-term or long-term methadone detox program, be switching to maintenance after detox, or be returning to treatment after a relapse.Some methadone treatment centers are limited in the types of methadone treatments they provide, so you will want to choose a center to support your goals. The best providers will make adjustments flexible enough to be changed over the course of your methadone treatment as your needs and goals change.
Location is important when you consider the time and cost burdens of travel. Methadone is dispensed on a daily basis until the person has established a certain amount of time in treatment to obtain take home doses. Hardships cases may be waived for take-home doses for individuals who may be disabled or have legitimate conditions under state and federal laws and at the discretion of the provider to be eligible, but, it still takes time to get these benefits.
Making access to affordable and effective methadone treatments continues to be supported through the efforts of federal, state, and local initiatives as well as the medical and psychiatric communities. Costs can change dramatically by facility and accepted insurance or payment methods so, you would do well to explore the facilities and compare costs beforehand.
Many methadone treatment centers are funded through public and private grants or sponsors that can help to offset the costs or reduce the fees based on income. Some treatment services may be provided free of charge. Always contact the facility directly to see if their costs can benefit you.

Got a wonderful black and white photograph of your great grandmother standing in a car-free street in downtown Twerton or a shot – you found in a car boot sale – of people boarding a steam train at Bath Spa Station?
While you may treasure such images in an album you keep at home, now comes the chance to share it with the world in a wonderful new facility that gives you the opportunity of stamping your own community identity onto an on-line facility that records the changing face of places like Bristol, Bath and North East Somerset and South Gloucestershire.
Go on line via http://www.kypwest.org.uk/ and you will pick up the following information about an Heritage Lottery Funded project you can really get involved in.
'Know Your Place is a digital heritage mapping project to help you to explore your neighbourhood online through historic maps, collections and linked information.
Know Your Place – West of England covers Gloucestershire, Somerset, Wiltshire and the former Avon area. It will provide unprecedented online access to historical maps, onto which users can add information about their local area, building a rich and diverse community map of local heritage for everyone.
The project runs until June 2017 and will provide comprehensive cover of the modern counties of South Gloucestershire, Gloucestershire, Wiltshire, North Somerset, Bath & North East Somerset and Somerset.
The project has been awarded £379,800 by the Heritage Lottery Fund, with generous match-funding and in-kind support from local authorities and heritage groups in the region, including £5,000 match-funding from the lead partner, South Gloucestershire Council.'
Here in Bath, local writer and historian Andrew Hill has been busy uploading images on to the site from the vast archives of the Museum of Bath at Work.
It's where l met him to find out more about his efforts – and how the people of Bath and North East Somerset can get involved.
A chance also to chat to Stuart Burroughs who is the Director of the Museum of Bath at Work.
Forgive the shaky camerawork but – with space at a premium in the museum archive – the camera is being hand-held!
The website address that will bring you straight to the B&NES section is http://maps.bristol.gov.uk/kyp/?edition=banes
Andrew Hill is also the author of a book that takes an in-depth look at Bath's retail history by exploring the rise and fall of one of its most famous commercial enterprises Cater, Stoffell and Fortt.

Business travel is on the rise. The Global Business Travel Association predicts companies will spend $268.5 billion this year on travel in the U.S. alone, according to an article on Entrepreneur.com. At the same time, mobile apps, smartphones and tablets are helping frequent travelers streamline travel plans as well as travel expense management.
Here are five ways mobile apps can make life easier for the frequent traveler.
- Staying organized with online expense reporting. Instead of waiting until the end of a business trip, mobile expense tracker apps make it easy to enter expenses as you go.
- Hailing a taxi. The free Hailo app allows you to summon a taxi to your current GPS location and pay your fare at the press of a button. The service works in five major cities, including Boston and Chicago.
- Using public transit in a new city. The HopStop app provides public transit maps and service updates for 600 cities in Europe, North America, Australia and New Zealand.
- Getting the most out of airports. If you're spending a lot of time in airports, TravelNerd can help you with details like flight updates, terminal maps, Wi-Fi and restaurant coupons.
- Finding a good seat. Whether you have long legs or need to be able to recline, the right seat on the plane makes a world of difference. SeatGuru offers hundreds of seating maps and photos plus user tips to help you find extra leg room.
With business travel and spending on the rise, it just makes sense to take advantage of mobile tools that offer increased comfort and efficiency for frequent travelers. Combined with the best expense report software, these mobile apps make good business sense.
We'd like to hear your suggestions. What mobile apps would you recommend for people working on the go? Share your recommendations in the comments section below!

Our choice of Chrome River EXPENSE was made in part due to the very user-friendly interface, easy configurability, and the clear commitment to impactful customer service – all aspects in which Chrome River was the clear winner. While Chrome River is not as large as some of the other vendors we considered, we found that to be a benefit and our due diligence showed that it could support us as well as any large players in the space, along with a personalized level of customer care.
We are excited to be able to enforce much more stringent compliance to our expense guidelines and significantly enhance our expense reporting and analytics. By automating these processes, we will be able to free up AP time formerly spent on manual administrative tasks, and enhance the role by being much more strategic.


text: For many offices, a lot of thought goes into design elements like desk and cubicle layout and lighting. But when it comes to color, many companies default to white. Studies show color can significantly influence our mood. Certain colors can excite, depress, stimulate, increase appetite, and/or tranquilize. While each person's personality affects how they interpret color, color influences us all universally. The infographic below delves into the psychological, emotional, and physical consequences of colors. Read on to learn which colors suit each part of your office.

"Thank you so much for making our wedding reception awesome. The food was wonderful and the staff did a great job!"
Richie and Ashley Brethold
"The 70th anniversary breakfast at the Sts. Joachim and Anne Care Center was great! .....the food and Deanna's service was excellent! Deanna went to Sts. J & A for grade school and she remembered Jim & Ellen's faces from church. That simple gesture of remembering and going over to greet them speaks volumes to me of the impact my in-laws have had on others but it also speaks highly of your staff, George. If I remember correctly, there was some juice left and sausage patties but not much else - we had delicious food for 35 hungry people and they did not leave hungry!
Again, George, thank you for your time in helping me to coordinate this event. It was a very special occasion and your advice and food/service helped make it so."
Susan Grimm

What the difference between the GTM 35 and 36? As i was told the the garmin dealer that GTM 35 can be only used in China and GTM 36 is for other countries. As I always travel between China and Europe do i need to buy both cables? thanks
You can buy GTM35, but GTM36 come with device.
If you buy nuvi 3490LMT you will have GTM36 in box
If you buy nuvi 3490 and if you try to buy GTM on Garin site, you can buy only GTM35, no GTM36 available.
So GTM36 come in box with LMT nuvi, GTM35 you can buy it in store, this is only difference that i know.
I'm in Istanbul right now and can confirm that there is a traffic signal here, but the only info I get was "No traffic reported ahead".
This is funny because in Istanbul there is no traffic only between 0.00 and 4-5AM. All other parts of the day - there is a lot.
Who has been here can confirm about traffic .
Addition-today I drove a lot in European side and Asian side-still same message No traffic reported....

Sometimes I feel like I'm the only one on the planet that doesn't "get" Disney's "High School Musical" franchise. Admittedly, I'm not a big fan of musicals, but still, why is everyone going bonkers over it?
In 2006, The Disney Channel debuted its made-for-TV production, "High School Musical." I watched it; it was okay and I generously gave it 3 stars (out of 5). Then there was a sing-a-long version and a dance-a-long version. For the record, I passed on those.
In 2007, Disney unleashed its made-for-TV sequel, "High School Musical 2." It was okay, a bit more contrived and more over-the-top; I gave it 3 stars—but maybe I should rethink that.
Now there is "High School Musical 3." What is interesting is that it will be released in theaters—tomorrow. Imagine that, a made-for-TV movie that spawns a theater-released sequel. Rest assured, I won't be rushing out to view it, but it will eventually turn up on The Disney Channel, so I might check it out then.
There's already talk about "High School Musical 4" with different characters (as opposed to a "College Musical" with the same characters). That seems like a recipe for disaster, but this whole thing is a head-scratcher to me.
Interestingly, Disney, apparently seeking to jump on their own bandwagon, did "Camp Rock" this summer. It was less contrived and even had the Jonas Brothers in it, but didn't catch on like its cousin, "High School Musical."
Although I may seem like a curmudgeon when it comes to musicals, there are some that I actually like. Check back tomorrow to find out which ones.

text: The first settler of record in the valley that became Golden City staked out two acres, raised a handsome garden, and sold produce to prospectors who were passing through the valley on the way to the canyons of Chicago Creek. Some of the prospectors settled in the valley while others headed for the gold fields in the mountains. Golden City grew and became the leading town in the Jefferson Territory. Golden City had just about everything – even a gambling tent, the proprietors of which, incidentally, were the Ford Brothers…hence "Ford Street". As the Colorado Territory was legally formed, Golden City became the county seat of Jefferson County and until 1867, the territorial capital of Colorado. ~ The "Colorado Transcript", Colorado's oldest weekly newspaper and now the "Golden Transcript", was first published in Golden in 1866. In 1873, the Adolph Coors Company opened its doors. In 1874, the Colorado School of Mines was founded just two years before Colorado became the 38th state. ~ Golden is still home to the Colorado School of Mines and Coors Brewery. It's also the permanent home of Buffalo Bill Cody, rumored to be buried under several feet of concrete to discourage grave robbing. ~ Golden is easily accessed from Denver's 6th Avenue West, which is US Highway 6 to two of Colorado's three legal gaming communities, Central City and Blackhawk.

Chapter 4
1 Better is childlessness with virtue; for immortal is its memory: because both by God is it acknowledged, and by men.
When it is present men imitate it, and they long for it when it is gone; And forever it marches crowned in triumph, victorious in unsullied deeds of valor.
But the numerous progeny of the wicked shall be of no avail; their spurious offshoots shall not strike deep root nor take firm hold.
For even though their branches flourish for a time, they are unsteady and shall be rocked by the wind and, by the violence of the winds, uprooted;
Their twigs shall be broken off untimely, and their fruit be useless, unripe for eating, and fit for nothing.
For children born of lawless unions give evidence of the wickedness of their parents, when they are examined.
But the just man, though he die early, shall be at rest.
For the age that is honorable comes not with the passing of time, nor can it be measured in terms of years.
Rather, understanding is the hoary crown for men, and an unsullied life, the attainment of old age.
2 He who pleased God was loved; he who lived among sinners was transported -
Snatched away, lest wickedness pervert his mind or deceit beguile his soul;
For the witchery of paltry things obscures what is right and the whirl of desire transforms the innocent mind.
Having become perfect in a short while, he reached the fullness of a long career;
for his soul was pleasing to the LORD, therefore he sped him out of the midst of wickedness. But the people saw and did not understand, nor did they take this into account.
Yes, the just man dead condemns the sinful who live, and youth swiftly completed condemns the many years of the wicked man grown old.
For they see the death of the wise man and do not understand what the LORD intended for him, or why he made him secure.
They see, and hold him in contempt; but the LORD laughs them to scorn.
And they shall afterward become dishonored corpses and an unceasing mockery among the dead. For he shall strike them down speechless and prostrate and rock them to their foundations; They shall be utterly laid waste and shall be in grief and their memory shall perish.
4 Fearful shall they come, at the counting up of their sins, and their lawless deeds shall convict them to their face.

A beautiful day for riding my Harley-Davidson today. It was sunny, warm for the season and a new members ride day for the local HOG Chapter. @officerhardass was to be the rear Road Captain for the day with another member leading the group. I went to the local dealership early to do a little shopping and immediately noticed that the lead Road Captain's arm was in a sling and he wasn't riding anywhere today. Fortunately another Road Captain stepped up, @officerhardass was shuffled to the lead of the group and after some discussion a route was planned.
After the briefing about 20 Harley-Davidsons formed up and we turned south towards the Central Coast. It's a common route for new members rides, some traffic, nice open sweeping curves, dual lanes and good food waiting at the other end. The group stayed together quite nicely throughout the ride and we ended up stopping at the Entrance Hotel, @officerhardass pleased that the ride was incident free.
This was the social portion of the ride, meeting and greeting with the new members and having a chat with the Director of the Mid North Coast HOG Chapter who had joined us for the ride, great bloke! After some rehydration it was time for me to head off and get back to the family. A small group of the attendees decided to leave as well while others settled in. Our small group, led by Dave, who was one of the riders who was with us on our first IBA Saddlesore 1600k, found our way back out to the Swansea Bends. A few of us decided at that point it was time to have a little fun so we very carefully negotiated the bends at exactly the speed limit taking extra care at the fixed speed camera.
As each of us got closer to home the group of funsters became smaller until I was riding by myself. It was really nice to be back out on the Road King with the local guys after much of my riding being solo over the last couple of months.

BASRA, Iraq (AFP) - Iraq plans to invest US$173 billion (S$214 billion) in its energy infrastructure over the next five years to dramatically ramp up crude output, Oil Minister Abdelkarim al-Luaybi said on Saturday.
The investment in upstream activities, refineries and to increase natural gas production will boost oil production to 9 million barrels of oil per day (bpd) and bring in revenues of US$600 billion, Mr Luaybi told a news conference in the southern port city of Basra.
"This plan will achieve revenues that will reach about US$600 billion in the coming five years," he said.
Iraq currently produces around 3.15 million bpd, according to oil ministry spokesman Assem Jihad, of which around 2.5 million bpd is exported. The country has proven reserves of 143.1 billion barrels, among the highest figures in the world. It has sought in recent years to sign contracts with international energy firms in order to boost output sharply and cement its role as a key global oil supplier.
Baghdad is almost entirely dependent on crude sales for much-needed revenues to rebuild Iraq's decrepit infrastructure and state-dominated economy, both of which have been shattered by decades of conflict and sanctions.

Artist Trading Cards and Italian Fashion and Diva Birthday
I have my atcs finished for the "women atc" swap over on Christian Paper Artists yahoo group. Nathalie is hosting the swap. I love these faces...they are from Nordstrom ads. I use those ads a lot. I scanned them before I added scripture to them. I wasn't sure what scripture to use...but at bible study on Wednesday I found it. I'll scan one later with the scripture on it. You are going to love it! The snow got close last night! This picture is from the Bryan/College Station, TX area ... which is where I go to those football and basketball games! Snow flurries were predicted as a POSSIBILITY in my area last night.... but I don't think they happened. The sun is shining brightly now and I think it's in the 50's. I haven't ventured outside today yet. Yesterday I met my sister-in-law at a fancy clothing store at The Galleria for a style show and luncheon. Max Mara, or The House of Max Mara, is an upscale, luxury Italian women's fashion house most famous today for its high-fashion ready-to-wear clothing. I copied that sentence off the internet. That stuff is so wasted on me. I tried to be pleasant... I smiled a lot and I think I was nice enough. My sil loves that stuff. I did get a great goodie bag out of it! Yes, I love to watch Project Runway - and I'm so glad Christian won! But what I love about it is watching the creative process - the clothes are definitely not for me. Anyway.... my sil is a sweetheart and I love her - I appreciate she drags me to these things and puts up with me. Then I had the Dirt Divas over at 5 to celebrate Lori's birthday. Did I take any pictures? No! I do not know why..... but only 4 of us were there and one was in San Diego and another went to see "Hello Dolly!" at the theatre - oh, puhleeze .... where are their priorities? We are getting VERY CLOSE to Post #100!

FUN ATCs! A departure for you and I LOVE it!
The fashion sounds fun too! I have never been to one. I'd be there for people watching and the goody bag (I never turn down anything free!) I love fashion, but don't have the figure and no place to wear anything nice- it would be wasted on shopping trips to Walmart and everyone would think I was uppity. heehee
