Hello beautiful!
It is time for another Makeup Revolution review. Today it is about the Vivid Baked Highlighter in the shade Golden Lights. Like I told you before I'm #therevolutionairies of the Makeup Revolution here in The Netherlands, which means I receive a box every month with some of their famous items to review. This month I picked the highlighter because I owned a highlight palette of them before but I forgot actually how amazing they are, and you should know. Even Khloe Kardashian said that the Vivid Baked Highlighter was her favorite ("my cheekbones were so sharp they could cut a bitch", her words!). You can easily get your Makeup Revolution items at the famous Dutch drugstore called Etos. Curious how well this highlighter works and if it beats my favorite Jeffree Star Skinfrosts? Let's get started!
Makeup Revolution started in Londen. I can remember that my colleague brought me the famous highlighter palette for me all the way from her UK trip. I was super excited to try out the highlighter because she told me it was a dupe from another big high-end brand. Can't remember which one anymore but I do know that I was happy with it and thankful to get such an exclusive items which was very hard to get that time.
Now Makeup Revolution is available in The Netherlands for almost the same price as in the UK. The drugstore called Etos has a whole range of their makeup goodies in their stores, so you definitely need to check it out!
The Vivid Baked Highlighter in the shade Golden Lights looks very basic at first sight. The packaging of their Baked Highlighter are packed in a round black pan with a see through lid. The lid is very easy to open and the size of the packaging is just perfect to store in every drawer. On the lid you will find the brand name and the product name in gold letters. The colors gold and black are the most used colors for their packaging, that is how you can recognize them.
The Vivid Baked Highlighters are available in 3 shades: Peach Lights, Pink Lights and Golden Lights. These 3 shades can be found separately in their own pan or as a palette. I owned the palette before but I totally forget that I still have it .. somewhere. The shade reminds me or the highlighter that was included in the Becca X Jaclyn Hill golden highlighter palette, do you remember? She had 3 shades with the Champagne Pop, a darker and a light shade. This one looks exactly like that, the same kind of pearly/gold shimmer white va va voom highlighter. If I'm right Becca made that white highlighter permanent in their collection because it was a limited edition because of the Jalcyn Hill collab.
See here the ingredients list: talc is the first thing I noticed. Is talc bad? Read this article(byrdie.co) to know more about it but so far there is no hard evidence or study that says talc is dangerous in makeup. Brands like MAC use talc in almost all of their powder makeup, it is hard not to use talc in your product because then they become chalky. There are brand out there that produce without talk but that is another story.
Anyway, lately I try to focus on the ingredients list. My skin became so sensitive lately so I try to track down what my skin can handle or not. So for when using the Vivid Baked Highlighter my skin stays calm.
The texture of the powder feels super smooth! When I dipped my finger into the powder to make a swatch on the back of my hand I could almost feel nothing when my finger was covered with powder. It was super weird, like the first moment you are rubbing your finger into the pan and instantly it feels like the powder disappeared from your finger. That is how light weighted it is. When I made the swatch on he back of my hand, the powder felt a bit silky/buttery. It has a really nice feeling on the skin and it easy to blend! Which is important to me because I usually get over excited when I use a highlighter and then it is almost impossible to blend out the highlighter. With the Vivid Baked Highlighter you won't have this problem.
I like to apply my highlighters with The Air Brush from Wayne Goss which is available on Beautylish.com. This brush is perfect for applying powder under the eyes, the cheekbones and contouring. I prefer using this brush only for highlighters.
I only need 1,5 swirl in the pan to pick up enough powder (the first time I tried it I used 2 swirls which was too overwhelming and my boyfriend told me there was 'something on my cheek'), that is all you need to get that #glow! Like I told you before it is very easy to blend this powder but I made the mistake to do my makeup in a dark room at 05:30AM so I arrived at work not knowing what was on my face! So if you do pick up too much powder, just blend baby.
Personally I like to apply my highlighter on the high points of my cheeks, under de bow brow and sometimes on the upper lip.
My cheeks can be oily/patchy sometimes. I'm a big lover of using glycolic toners which causes the dry patches around my cheeks. Yes, I like to live the dangerous live. Surprisingly, even with my dry patches the powder still looks very smooth on my skin! I also have to mention that after a few yours the oil starts to show up, which blurred out the dry patches a bit. This creates a super healthy glow on my face (see video). With some powders I experience a chalky effect after wearing it for a whole day, but with the Vivid Baked Highlighter it still looks very smooth and even on my skin.
Me being a Revolutionairies for Makeup Revolution is such an honor! I can try out their goodies every month and out all of the items I pick just one to give you an in dept review. This month I'm so happy to rediscover the ViVid Baked Highlighter which I already owned but in a palette with wo others shades.
This budget friendly highlighter is something you need, it is no surprise that Kloe Kardashian loves this highlighter! Me being a Kardashian lover because I like drama, I also had to love this item. No joke, I love it because it works great and it is affordable! It reminds me of Becca highlighter that was a part of the Jaclyn Hill highlighter palette and it almost equal as my all time favorite Jeffree Star Skinfrosts. The Vivid Baked Highlighter is available in 3 shades (gold, pink and peach), the texture is silky/buttery, the application is easy and when you overuse you can blend it out without any problems, the powder looks smooth on my oily/combination skin and even after hours of hard work it still looks healthy on my skin!
You can easily miss a small amount of €6,49 to try it out! Go to your nearby Etos to get your now!

Greenwich Academy's master plan is in full swing this summer.
The project includes demolishing and reconstructing the lower school and expanding the upper school.
The reimagined campus, which also includes a larger library, will not only result in new buildings, but renovations will support collaborative and small group learning, and pedestrian systems will be designed to foster impromptu interactions.
The existing Lower School was built in the 1970s. Head of School Molly King described the building to the P&Z commission in January as "an aging building and doesn't smell very good." She said teaching and learning have evolved, and there is a focus more on open flexible spaces and collaborative and small group learning.
Despite objections from neighbors, the school received permission from the Town to move its Cowan Center daycare to 96 Maple, and to demolish houses at 176 North Maple and 2 Patterson Ave.
The demolitions free up Floor-Aria-Ratio (FAR) on the main campus at 200 North Maple, though the project overall will not result in an increase in enrollment.
The current Cowan Center is located in a former carriage house, which is outdated, has inconsistent temperatures between rooms, and a steep set of stairs to be navigated by toddlers.
Neighbors had argued unsuccessfully that converting the house at 96 Maple to an institutional use was inappropriate for the mostly residential neighborhood. They also said that the existing Historic Overlay for the house was approved when it was residential.
In any event, the Historic Overlay requires the exterior to remain unaltered.
The house at 96 Maple, which now comes off the town tax rolls, dates back to 1910.
The Cowan center will offer subsidized pre-K and daycare to 50 children of teachers at Greenwich Academy and Brunswick from 8 weeks old to 4 years old.
This summer while many residents are away on vacation, those who remain go about their business amid roadwork, detours and construction in all parts of town.
Neighbors on Maple Ave say the Greenwich Academy master plan project has taken a toll on their quality of life.
At 2 Patterson, the house neighbors referred to as the "ghost house" because the school cut off its utilities years ago was demolished this week.
The property abuts the school's main campus, and by demolishing it, valuable FAR is added.
The school also recently demolished a house adjacent to the main campus at 176 Maple Ave. That space will be maintained as grass and be used for parking no more than 15 times a year.
This week masons are cutting stone to construct a stone wall at 96 Maple. Nearby scores of workers are cutting stone to build large stone walls along the perimeter of 2 Patterson.
Ellen Brennan-Galvin and her husband Bill Galvin of 136 Maple Ave said that seven days a week the noise of stone cutting at 2 Patterson and 96 Maple is deafening and the soot and dust make it impossible to open their windows, much less sit outside on their patio.
"The neighbors have been trampled," said Mrs. Brennan-Galvin. "Large boulders are being cut in situ. I didn't sign up to have a quarry in my back yard."
"We have endured nearly a month of six day a week stone cutting at 96 Maple Ave," said Mr. Galvin this week. "I have just been informed by the workers at Greenwich Academy's 2 Patterson Ave project that the stone cutting there will continue for another 3 to 4 weeks. The net effect is that we have lost the use of our property this summer."
Mr. Galvin said nowhere in the Greenwich Academy application materials for either project was it indicated that significant stone cutting would be involved in the creation of any of the walls proposed.
"This may be a gap in the neighbors' understanding of what is involved in such projects, but clearly a local quarry operation is not acceptable in a neighborhood," he said.
Ms. Brennan-Galvin said that she and her husband met with a representative of Greenwich Academy this week and were told that the stone masons would use more water to wet down the stone being cut to keep the dust down.
On Wednesday evening Greenwich Academy's director of communication Asha Marsh said in an email that heavy construction at 96 Maple should be completed by Labor Day.
"We are still planning to have this building ready to open as the new Cowan Center at the start of school," Marsh said, adding that because late summer is not a good time for new plantings, landscaping of this area will take place later in the fall.
"We have asked our masons to move further away from Patterson Ave and to increase their water usage to eliminate dust," Ms. Marsh said.
She said the next steps at 2 Patterson are to remove debris and grade the property.
"As always, we seek to actively engage with our neighbors by communicating our plans in advance, making ourselves available to answer questions, and working to minimize the disruptions to the best of our abilities," Marsh said in the email.
The Galvins said they were surprised and dismayed when back in June, Greenwich Academy cut down two mature Maple trees in front of 96 Maple.
"Instead of preserving the streetscape of 100 year old Maples in front of 96 Maple Ave they have taken down two massive trees," said neighbor Bill Galvin at the time.
"The men doing the cutting observed that while there were some upper limbs that were dead, they could have been removed, preserving the trees – probably for another few decades. Supposedly, there will be 'replacement' trees planted — probably 4"-5" caliper versus the 24"-36" trees they removed," Galvin said.
"Another example of GA's extraordinary effort to preserve the character of the neighborhood in which it operates."

Aggie's spot
I have been very busy in the ceramic studio making functional ware out of clay. But I am also trying to paint when the muse takes me.
Aggie has been sleeping in the same spot on the bed all of her ten years of life. Today is no different. Now that I have a feather comforter, the other cats prefer to sleep elsewhere, but Aggie stays, luxuriating in the feather comfort.
This painting was particularly fun because I could luxuriate in the colors just like Aggie was luxuriating in the feathers. Her amazing fur catches the light just so and I was able to capture that.
This painting is sold. All proceeds from the sale of this (and every other painting that I do) goes to protect endangered species.. You can help today!

The 39 Steps (1935)
After years in which Hitchcock had made thrillers only occasionally, Hitchcock had just produced a British hit with The Man Who Knew Too Much (1934), the story of an innocent family that gets involved with spies. For a follow-up Hitchcock and his producer Michael Balcon turned to the novel The Thirty-Nine Steps (1915) by the suspense author John Buchan. By the time Hitchcock and his scriptwriter Charles Bennett were through the only details remaining from the novel were the chase from London to Scotland and back and the idea that the hero was pursued by the police while he chased the spies.
The resulting screenplay was a marvel of compression. Hitchcock and Bennett broke all the action into a series of set pieces, and then made the transitions between those scenes as rapid as possible. A landlady discovers a woman's body and her scream becomes the whistle of a train speeding the hero away from the scene. In another moment, the handcuffed hero smashes through a window in the police station and quickly joins a parade. Exactly how he managed this feat is never explained but with the film's speed there is never enough time to wonder.
This desire for taut narratives led to the invention of what Hitchcock would dub the "MacGuffin." Based on a Scottish anecdote, the MacGuffin is "the thing the spies are after" that is of vital importance to the characters but of no importance to the audience. Ignoring the point of the pursuit allowed Hitchcock and Bennett to waste less time in explanation and focus more attention on humor, romance and the mounting suspense.
Hitchcock was an inveterate theatre-goer while he was in England and for this film he picked two actors from the English stage. Robert Donat became a major star playing the hero Richard Hannay in this movie while, for the role of a crofter's wife who helps the fugitive hero, Hitchcock chose 27-year old Peggy Ashcroft, later Dame Peggy Ashcroft and Academy Award winner for A Passage to India (1984).
Several women were touted for the female lead before Balcon went to America for British-born Hollywood star Madeleine Carroll. Hitchcock worried that she might be too prim and actressy for the role but he managed to break her of that on the day of her first scene. This was one where she was handcuffed to Donat before the two escape from kidnappers. Locking handcuffs around their wrists, Hitchcock led the actors through a rehearsal then claimed an urgent technical matter was calling him away. Unfortunately he had mislaid the key. Donat and Carroll were left locked together until that afternoon when the key, which Hitchcock had placed in the custody of a studio guard, was retrieved and the frustrated couple were separated. By then, of course, both actors were tired and cranky but much better prepared for their roles.
The resulting movie has been hailed as one of the greatest British films ever made and became the inspiration for countless movies ever since, from Hitchcock's Saboteur (1942) and North by Northwest (1959) to recent hits such as The Fugitive (1993) and Double Jeopardy (1999). Every film where an innocent man looks for the evidence to clear himself while the police close in owes a debt to Hitchcock's The 39 Steps.

The 39 Steps (1935)
The 39 Steps - THE 39 STEPS - Alfred Hitchcock's 1935 Thriller on Blu-Ray & DVD
Practically the working recipe for unbreakable "Hitchcock" thrillers to come, The 39 Steps combines equal parts spy chase, comic sidebar scenes and sexy romantic material. The source is a book by author John Buchan, but history has awarded the credit for this saucy mix to Hitch, with a Supporting Chef nod to Bennett.
Canadian visitor Richard Hannay (Robert Donat) attends a Music Hall where the amusing Mr. Memory (Wylie Watson) performs. Picked up by the exotic, enticing Annabella Smith (Lucie Mannheim), Hannay initially pays little attention to her story of being chased by spies. He changes his tune when she's knifed to death in his apartment, after giving him only one clue: Alt-na-Shellach, the name of a locale in Scotland that is essential to the safeguarding of an important military secret. Realizing that he has been framed for the murder of Annabella, Hannay flees northward on a train. He begs a beautiful fellow traveler Pamela (Madeleine Carroll) to hide him from the authorities, but she immediately turns him in. Hannay effects an escape, reaches his destination and contacts the one man who can help him uncover the nest of spies --- only to discover that this local man is the head of the entire enemy organization. Fleeing once again, Hannay finds himself handcuffed to Pamela, and forced to persuade her that his mission to thwart the spies is genuine.
The 39 Steps even dazzled jaded New York critics and exhibitors, overturning the conviction that English films couldn't touch the exciting, high-budget adventures being turned out by Hollywood. Richard Hannay's highly entertaining race to Scotland introduced to mainstream thrillers ideas of pacing and ellipsis largely forgotten with the advent of sound. Hitchcock doesn't show everything that happens - the murder in Hannay's apartment is a complete mystery -- without pausing for scenes of a police investigation. Instead of a shot of a sunrise to show the passage of time, Hitchcock shows a cleaning woman discovering a dead body. Her scream is replaced by the shriek of a steam engine's whistle, and we leapfrog over more conventional exposition to join Hannay, his flight northward already in progress. Fritz Lang had invented the 'associative audio cut' that motivated instant transitions to otherwise random-looking new scenes. In The 39 Steps Hitchcock earned kudos for providing a stylish shock transition that 1) confirms the status of the unfortunate Annabella; 2) underscores why Hannay is running for his life; and 3) jolts the audience with the charwoman's extreme reaction, aided by the clever audio trick.
The narrative has only a couple of minutes of conventional foot pursuit in the Scottish Highlands, even (as explained by one of Criterion's extras) tossing in a weak effects shot of a pursuing Autogyro, to please literal-minded readers of Buchan's book. Is the airplane a forerunner of the crop duster in North by Northwest, or the SMERSH helicopter in From Russia with Love? Hitchcock prefers to concentrate on Hannay's encounters with various locals, which enable him to poke impish fun at the notion of Scotsmen as mean-spirited and stingy. An incredibly economical visit to the house of John, a crofter (John Laurie) is often singled out for praise. John's welcome is a negotiation for payments. When he sees Hannay and his quiet wife (Peggy Ashcroft, much later a star in David Lean's A Passage to India) exchanging furtive glances he's quick to accuse them. The crisscrossed mis-readings are indicated through just a couple of quick close-ups of eyes.
Hitchcock, we are told, began directing with a sketchy knowledge of sexuality from the female point of view. But by The 39 Steps he had settled on his personal fantasy female: a conservative blonde, icily reserved in public yet scandalously forward in private. He searched for this elusive creature for the rest of his filmmaking career, but succeeded in concocting elaborate fantasy versions of "her" through several gorgeous blonde actresses. Most sources agree that the first model off the assembly line was Steps' gorgeous Madeline Carroll. Her Pamela twice betrays Hannay and is his argumentative equal. They carry on a running argument, even during a midnight kidnapping. Carroll's Pamela spends a soggy night handcuffed to Hannay, out in the wild and together in the intimate confines of a country inn. Like Grace Kelly or Eva Marie Saint to Cary Grant, Carroll's scolding only looks like more teasing, as when an attempt to remove the handcuffs results in some suggestive contact between Hannay's hand and Pamela's invitingly naked leg. As for Robert Donat, the polished actor manages to be simultaneously desperate and cavalier about his plight while aiming teasing insults at Pamela. She doesn't know whether to bash him in the head while he sleeps, or leap recklessly into his arms. The couple is aided and abetted by a sympathetic innkeeper's wife (Helen Haye), whose protective attitude to lovers on the run always elicits applause from screening audiences.
The story finishes with a clever twist that sends one out admiring The 39 Steps for its fine-tuned pacing and narrative symmetry. And Hitchcock made certain that his personal stamp of humor would be remembered first, even before the engaging performances of his lead actors. From this point forward the "Master of Suspense" would keep his audiences guessing what the next trick up his sleeve would be.
The Criterion Collection's Blu-ray of The 39 Steps is a very good restoration of Alfred Hitchcock's long-confirmed classic thriller. The transfer is quite good, although we suspect that the best original elements are long gone; Criterion lists the digital tools used to spiff up their presentation but does not specify the actual source. The film shows some wear yet is the best looking and sounding copy of the show I've ever seen. Much more of the dialogue - all that chatter in the Music Hall! -- is now clearly audible.
Disc producers Susan Arosteguy and Karen Stetler faced up to the challenge of finding "new" extras for a film that has been analyzed and raked over since the beginning of pop film criticism and the Truffaut/Hitchcock book. We're given a commentary by Hitchcock specialist Marian Keane, an English TV docu on the director's pre-war career; an excerpt from a 1966 Hitchcock TV interview and an entertaining visual essay conducted by Hitchcock scholar Leonard Leff.
From the vault comes a 1937 radio adaptation starring Ida Lupino and Robert Montgomery, audio excerpts from François Truffaut's 1962 Hitchcock interviews and a gallery of original designs. Bringing out the film's Scottish flavor is critic/filmmaker David Cairns' insightful liner note essay. Cairns neatly disposes of the "MacGuffin question" and then just as persuasively sketches the similarity of Hitchcock's disconnected, often unexplained thriller plotting to a surreal nightmare. The quote, "I make nightmares", isn't restricted to the director's more frightening films.

A crystal singing bowl is a musical instrument that is made of pure quartz crystal. It is typically shaped like a bowl and produces sound when struck or played with a mallet. The sound produced by crystal singing bowls is said to have a healing effect on the body and mind. Crystal singing bowls come in various sizes and frequencies, each corresponding to a different chakra or energy center in the body. When the bowls are played, the vibrations and resonance of the sound can help to balance and align these energy centers. Crystal singing bowls are often used in sound healing sessions, meditation practices, and yoga classes. They are also popular among musicians and sound therapists who use them to create relaxing and therapeutic soundscapes.
Directions: To play a crystal singing bowl, the player can strike the bowl with a mallet or use a rubbing motion around the rim of the bowl to create a sustained tone. The player can then vary the pressure and speed of the rubbing motion to produce different sounds and effects.
Diameter: 10"
Height: 7"
Weight: 4.9lbs
Note: A- Third Eye
Includes: one mallet and rubber ring stand

According to Patrick Stevens at D1Scourse, Ralph Friedgen has tabbed Jamarr Robinson as his starting quarterback, although his endorsement is anything but ringing.
"I think Jamarr will be the starting quarterback, but like every position it's still going to be competitive," Friedgen said. "The biggest concern I have with the other guys is they haven't had any playing time. I see them developing. I'm not disappointed in them at all. I really would like to get them into some games so they could get some experience. I think that's the main quality Jamarr has over them is he's had [four] games of experience."
This merely confirms what we already suspected. Robinson stepped in for injured quarterback Chris Turner towards the end of last season, and performed admirably. He didn't blow anyone'ss socks off, but he showed flashes of his potential. That coupled with his performance in spring practices was enough to keep redshirt freshman Danny O'Brien at bay.
But what is most interesting is Friedgen's comments about Robinson's status as the starter, which doesn't seem to be set in stone. Competition is good at most positions on the football field, but quarterback isn't necessarily one of them. Ideally, you want to have a leader entrenched at the position from day one that the coaching staff and the rest of the team can believe in. This reminds me of the old saying that "if you have two quarterbacks, you have none."
Friedgen seems comfortable, if not enthused, with Robinson as his starting quarterback. "I'm not disappointed in them at all," is not a particularly inspiring quote. But hopefully, he is just trying to keep his starter hungry, and Robinson will be able to step in and be the dual threat quarterback Friedgen has been looking for the past few years.

Father of driver police say caused deadly school bus crash talks to Fox26
FOX26HOUSTON - "She's very very saddened about it because she loves children," said Neville Allen referring to his 29-year-old daughter Nakita.
Allen says he hasn't really been able to talk to his daughter about the deadly crash.
Nakita Allen is a teacher and was on her way to school Tuesday morning.
Police say she made an unsafe lane change and struck the HISD school bus causing it to go off the overpass and onto the road below.
"It's not easy to know that someone sends their child out in the morning and they're never going to return again," Allen said.
Allen says he rushed to the scene after Nakita called him about the accident.
"She was in the police car at the time she wouldn't do much talking she was in more need of comforting she was crying all the time," Allen said.
"At that time we only knew that one was dead,"Allen said. "We didn't know about the other one."
Allen says his thoughts are with the families of the two students who died in the crash.
"I'm very sorrowful for the parents who lost their children," Allen said. "Two are gone they'll never come back."


text: Overheating What does it mean when your car is overheating? Ruh roh, your gauge is climbing to the dreaded red H. What is causing it and what can you do to fix it before it destroys your engine or causes some very expensive bill? Cars start to over heat as they reach 250 degrees. (Cars usually run at 195-220 degrees. Just to give you an idea.) Now keep in mind that the boiling point for your coolant is 250–260 degrees. Not much wiggle room, is there? Why is it important? Cooling your engine is very important. As it is with most machines, like your computer, keeping things cool as they do their job keeps every thing from breaking down due to heat and friction. Here are some things that happen to your car as the temperature climbs. Lowers your fuel combustion efficiency Causes corrosion Starts to heat and warp the metal in and around your engine. Causes the viscosity of the liquid in your engine to change to gunk (oil, Coolant, etc) What should you do? PULL OVER- If you notice your car overheating pull over as soon as you can! If there isn't a safe place to pull off turn on your heat to pull the heat away from your engine and, I cannot stress this enough, pull over as soon as you can! Overheating can cause serious damage to your vehicle. It is recommended to pull over in less than a ¼ mile. CALL FOR HELP- After you pull over; open the hood of your car! Let your car cool down and call AAA (or towing company) and have them tow you to a mechanic. If you're going to try to see what went wrong, check to see if you have any coolant in your reservoir. It should be half full. If it's empty wait till your engine is completely cool (at least 30 min). If you do not you can seriously hurt yourself. The liquid can shoot out and harm you. Think Volcano. After its cool, fill it with your cars recommended coolant. This is all that I can recommend that you do yourself. Especially on the side of the road. LET PROFESSIONALS FIX IT- Barring that you just inconveniently ran out of coolant you might have a disconnected hose, a leak, a blocked hose, the wrong coolant in your car, a radiator problem, broken thermostat, etc. If you're reading this you're probably not a mechanic. I would recommend that you let professionals handle it. (You ever see those Pintrest fails? Don't want one of those, that could cost you even bigger money) How can I prevent this? It is recommended that you get your coolant flushed every 30,000 miles or every 5 years, whatever comes first. If coolant labels confuse you, don't just pick something and throw it in. Get regular maintenance on your vehicle. But keep in mind that life happens; things will wear out on your vehicle. There is no way to completely prevent this from happening. The best thing to do is be forewarned on what to do before something like this happens.

Tabard Inn: perfect for `power' people
| Washington
There's nothing slick about the Tabard Inn -- Washington's quintessential small hotel -- unless it's the clientele. On the first day I lunched there, a journalist was interviewing a female ``mover and shaker'' on my right. On my left, a fresh-faced young man in a three-piece suit was discussing his chances in an upcoming election. And just about everybody else looked as though they felt right at home making momentous decisions in the corridors of power. What gave this scene its particular charm was that it took place in such a relaxed, friendly, and unpretentious setting as the dining room at the Tabard Inn.
The food at the Tabard is delicious and carefully prepared. Produce is delivered fresh from a private farm in Virginia. The atmosphere and the service couldn't be more pleasant. If you get there early enough, or are willing to wait long enough in the right season, you can have breakfast or lunch outside on the brick-enclosed patio, shaded by bright umbrellas and surrounded by potted impatiens and geraniums. Dinner is served only indoors.
Even waiting at the Tabard is no hardship. In the walnut-paneled lounge you can sink into one of nine comfy sofas and gaze at the venerable prints, paintings, and memorabilia that surround you. You can read the paper at a round, marble-top table in the corner, or, in winter, enjoy the warmth and cheer of the fireplace.
What's so refreshing about the inn, located in the heart of downtown Washington, is that the place is so homelike, cozy, and genuinely welcoming.
Having meals at the Tabard is rather like eating in an old, familiar club -- only the food is better.
I happened on the Tabard as I prowled down N Street, just off Scott Circle, looking for a place to eat. What I longed for -- but didn't dare dream of finding -- was something as different as possible from Musak-piping, air-conditioned, mass-market institutionality of the hotel at which I was staying. To my astonishment, I found just what I was looking for.
The Tabard Inn consists of three late-Victorian townhouses connected on the inside by several quirky, creaking staircases. There are 40 guest rooms on four floors and no elevators. The rooms range in size from palatial to small, and in price from $105 with bath, to $43 without. All have high ceilings and a delightful array of mostly period furniture, some picked up at auctions.
Room 24, for example, has a fireplace and drawing-room area, a snow-white candlewick bedspread on its wrought-iron double bed, and an upright piano in one corner. The vivid pink and green of its sofa and large, inviting armchairs are repeated in an oval of plasterwork molding on the ceiling. Light pours in through the three large windows facing N Street. The floral motifs and odd pieces of old porcelain recall the charm of small hotels in London.
Number 24 has a small, old-fashioned, spotlessly clean private bath. There is a telephone in the room, but no television. Anyone who absolutely must watch television during the evening is encouraged to repair to the lounge, thereby, incidentally, making friends with some other guests. Or, on the shelves of a quaint old secretary in number 24, there is a collection of well-thumbed books. Because there are no elevators at the Tabard, there is also no room service. Breakfast in the dining room or on the patio has become a tradition for local Washingtonians as well as for guests in the hotel. After all, ``movers and shakers'' need to get an early start -- but they obviously like their comforts, too.

Institute History
- 2008 Sundance Film Festival
- 2007 Sundance Documentary Film Grant
Self-examination is good for the soul according to the saying, and the piercing personal and social introspection first-time filmmaker Katrina Browne conducts of her family history is a revelation because it's far more than just a personal narrative. Traces of the Trade: A Story from the Deep North is both psychology and history, the story of her forebears, the De Wolfs, the largest slave-trading family in United States history.
From 1769 to 1820, three generations of De Wolfs transported more than 10,000 Africans into slavery. Contrary to the myth of southern guilt, they were staunch New England Protestants, who received special dispensation from President Jefferson to continue trading long after it was outlawed. Browne wrote to more than 200 family descendants, inviting them to join her in tracing her family's submerged legacy; nine signed up and take a journey from the slave forts of Ghana to the ruins of a family plantation in Cuba.
This past portrait is fascinating, but it is their encounter with a minefield of racial politics that prompts the film's real questions. What is their personal complicity? Who owes whom what for the sins of their fathers? And what are the possibilities for reparation, both spiritual and material? In this bicentennial year of the abolition of the slave trade, Traces of the Trade makes a potent statement about privilege and responsibility.

Today, the National Ignition Facility passed a new milestone, heating a hydrogen fuel until it emitted more energy than it absorbed, fueled by the atomic energy released in fusion. The results bring the lab one step closer to turning nuclear fusion into a viable power source — although, as scientists were quick to note, there's still a long way to go.
The process works by shining 192 beams from a powerful laser into a small pellet of hydrogen fuel, hoping to heat a small area to the extreme temperatures required for fusion. While the lab has succeeded in getting the fuel to export energy, the process overall is still a net energy loser, thanks to inefficiencies in the laser system. Still, scientists believe the results will provide an important boost for the project, and potentially spur further research into nuclear fusion as an energy source.

Back in the beginning of 2015, 2 Chainz briefly considered a run for mayor in College Park, Georgia. The topic arose following an argument with Nancy Grace over the legalization of marijuana in which 2 Chainz obviously took the pro-weed side, a stance agreed upon by fellow Southern rapper Killer Mike, who wrote an op-ed for Rolling Stone that detailed how a marijuana industry could do wonders for America's unemployed, former convicts, and race relations in general.
Stopping by The Daily Show, 2 Chainz spoke with Trevor Noah about his new Viceland show "Most Expensivest," a series in which 2 Chainz and guests "uncover all of the extravagant ways the 1% enjoys" spending their money. He also spoke on the old rumors around his mayoral campaign, saying that if were to ever run, he "may legalize marijuana" and "would also deal with funding a lot of the county programs, sports programs, and things like that," because "a lot of kids don't come outside anymore. A lot of them either play video games or are on their phones."
I don't know about his ability to be a mayor, but I do like supporting education and after-school programs. Watch the full interview here.

Aether (Enemy)
Dischordia and the Kingdom of Aether have been enemies for centuries. Aether's declaration of war during the Foundation Era culminated in the War of Aether centuries later. Every kingdom, domain, and noble lost much during that conflict. Resurgences of conflict have cropped up from time to time, most recently near the end of the War of Maelstrom's Rebuke. In the Treaty of the same name, the Aether was welcomed into the Court of Empires. While this development has lessened the hostility somewhat, the two kingdoms are still mistrustful of one another. Many Dischordians fear and hate the Aether's self-proclaimed desire to bring an end to all things. Yet claims have surfaced that Balor's nature makes him no better.
Avalon (Enemy)
Avalon's hatred for Dischordia dates back to times of legend. The Tuatha de Danaan and the children of Arcadia defeated and imprisoned the Fomorians. Arthur Pendragon is a scion of House Danaan, and Balor a Fomorian King and the destroyer of Arcadia. Their hatred of one another is as powerful as it is inevitable. Only one thread of diplomacy exists between the two kingdoms. During the War of Maelstrom's Rebuke, Princess Myrum Scathach of Dischordia aided Avalon. Princess Scathach fought alongside the Pendragon to drive the Aether from Avalon's shores.
Aztlan (Enemy)
Aztlan and Dischordia have always been contentious neighbors. In the first year of Balor's Reign, the Aztlan domain of Xibalba attacked the Valley of the King. In doing so, they marched an army across Dischordian borders. The New Faith intervened on Pascal's behalf, defeating the Xibalban forces. When Pascal joined Dischordia, Aztlan's hatred only grew.
Relations were further complicated in the Surveyor's era. In their pursuit of territory, Appalachia seized Juarez from Xibalba. This city remained a contested territory for decades, changing hands several times.
During the War of Maelstrom's Rebuke, Pascal offered his life to placate Aztlan. Through his sacrifice, Pascal ascended to godhood, denying Aztlan's vengeance against him. In the final treaty to end the war, Aztlan was willing to acknowledge Pascal's divinity. Their proposal was struck from the final treaty, and animosity remained.
Diamond Congo (Friendly?)
During the early years of the Court of Empires, the Diamond Congo recognized Dischordia's strength. When Dischordia aided the Diamond in freeing many of their ancestral spirits from eternal torment, that respect grew into an alliance. Though the two kingdoms are friendly with one another, it is not a strong bond. The Diamond's leadership has changed three times within two years, and with each regime change the diplomacy must begin anew. Due to the insular nature of their new king, none know what to expect.
Dischordia may try to present a unified front to the Court of Empires, but the kingdom is far from cohesive. In many ways, Dischordia's diversity is its greatest strength. In others, it is its greatest weakness. Dischordia is chaotic, and each domain has its own internal alliances and enemies. Some of the animosities have existed for centuries. Their hatred of one another runs deep and, were it not for the Imperials, might threaten to tear the kingdom apart. Still, the domains seem willing to put aside their differences to face external threats together.
German Free States (Neutral, Unfriendly)
Originally part of Lazarus' Empire, Germany faced the fury of the Wolves of the North during the War of Maelstrom's Rebuke. Despite their losses, they managed to capture and kill the Wolves' general. By all accounts, the German States and Dischordia should be enemies, but their courage during the war earned Odin's begrudging respect. When the war ended, they gained their independence as a result of the Treaty of Maelstrom's Rebuke, a matter for which Prince Wilhelm owes some gratitude to Dischordia. For now, neither kingdom seems eager to rekindle the conflict.
Iron Lotus (Enemy)
The Iron Lotus began their relationship with Dischordia on shaky footing. The open hatred between the Iron Lotus and the Jade Empire, has led to some diplomatic complications. Dischordia, naturally, backed their allies in the Jade, and created a rift with the Lotus even before the first visit of their Ambassador. The Ambassador's first visit to the Court of Empires was further marred by accusations of theft and destruction of High King Balors property. This culminated in Dischordia banishing the Iron Lotus from the Court of Empires. Shortly following this incident, the Lotus Ambassador disappeared. The Iron Lotus blamed Dischordia for this, but could not prove it.
Jade Empire (Allied)
The Jade Empire and Dischordia have always been close, though not always allies. It is known that Tao no Shih, a fae from the Jade Empire, was sent to assassinate Balor. Balor spared his life, Tao no Shih became the first Voice of Balor, and the bridge between the two kingdoms. Through constant diplomacy, the two have grown to be close allies, and yet each knows that their respective visions for the future cannot coexist. It is only a matter of time before their differences shatter their alliance. Neither kingdom lookings forward to the inevitable conflict.
Jukurrpa (Allied)
Dischordia and Jukurrpa have gotten along well since their first introduction. Through Dischordia's aid, Jukurrpa was able to drive the Aether off the island of Papua New Guinea and reclaim a powerful Caern. There was a time when it seemed that Jukurrpa would join Dischordia as a domain, but a prophetic warning maintained their independence. That has not prevented the two kingdoms from strengthening their ties to one another. With Dischordia's help, that Caern was named as an international court for Shifters of all nations.
Stygian Alliance (Neutral, Unfriendly)
Few kingdoms have as long a history of contention as Dischordia and the Stygian Alliance. Before either kingdom had a name, the two were at war. Balor, and the domains which became Dischordia, fought Lazarus' legions of the dead. Throughout the Founder's Era, the two traded threats and contested one another for conquests. During the War of Aether, the two came together against a common enemy. That cooperation was shattered during the Court of Empires. When Dischordia attacked the Lazarean domain of Carpathia, it sparked the War of Maelstrom's Rebuke. Both kingdoms brought untold death and destruction on one another. When they signed a peace treaty a year later, they bound themselves to peace. Each watches the other with suspicion, unwilling to lower their guard against such a persistent enemy.
Ukhu Amarumaya (Friendly)
Over a very short time, Ukhu Amarumaya has drastically changed its stance on Dischordia. Throughout the early Court of Empires, Ukhu's opinion of Dischordia was quite low. Dischordia had brought war to Ukhu's allies in Aztlan. They harbored King Pascal, a hated enemy. They murdered the brother of Ukhu's King Supay. They placed two Shadow Lords, viewed by the Ukhu kingdom as butchers, as the Voices of Balor. And yet, Dischordians made great efforts to repair that relationship. The Shadow Lords went to great effort to repair a valued Ukhu totem spirit, even dedicating a place of power in its name. And, in the end, King Pascal showed himself to be true to their ideals of balance and sacrifice, putting his kingdom's well-being above his own. Not everyone is pleased with the growing relationship between them. There are those in each kingdom who still harbor hostility.
Vechnyy Uzhas (Neutral)
The relationship between Dischordia and the Vechnyy Uzhas is a complicated one. During the War of Maelstrom's Rebuke, Rasputin slew Aitu, the lord of the Nightmare Lands, and claimed his domain for his own. Some in Dischordia were grateful for the death of the Crimson Weaver, while others desired vengeance for the death of their lord. There are many in Dischordia who seek to destroy Rasputin and Baba Yaga, for a variety of reasons. One of the most prevalent is to reclaim the Nightmare Lands. The Imperials, for their part, desire to keep the lines of diplomacy open. If they can reclaim the Nightmare Lands and bring Rasputin into the fold, it would gain a powerful vassal for Balor. There are some, however, who see conflict as the only inevitable end.

Can you think of a person who is famous, flirtatious, and cultured? How about friendly, rich, and tattooed? That is the goal of Hello My Name Is, a party name game from Gamewright.
This game was provided to me by the publisher for this review
In Hello My Name Is, you are trying to think of a person who matches a certain set of characteristics decided on by all of the players. These characteristics range from physical attributes like blond and short to personality traits like flirtatious and serious. These characteristics are organized by card color once chosen by players. The active player will have ten seconds to name a person who fits the characteristics of a color set. Players also have X tokens that they can use to eliminate a card from a set if they are struggling. If the active player is successful, they win the cards for the color they chose. If they fail, they get an X token to use later. The first player to collect 14 or more cards wins!
As an example, the above cards are the chosen characteristics. The active player can name a person that fits either the purple cards, the teal cards, or the red card. If I am the active player, I could choose the teal set and say Abraham Lincoln to win those cards. And if I was trying to do the purple set and struggling, I could use an X token to eliminate "cultured" and only have to use "flirtatious" and "famous". You get a little bit of strategy for those really competitive players who want those high card groups, but still straightforward enough for all skill levels and preferences.
This is a really fun party game that you can play with larger groups if needed. I played this once with a group of over 10 people and they played in pairs. It was also really easy to manipulate the game to fit the situation better and we ended up with a tie so I added a fun tie-breaker house rule because it was fitting for the event. It is also really fun seeing what teams decide to play, and how they choose to mess up other teams with their choices. It led to a lot of laughs over some of the ridiculous combinations of characteristics.
Hello My Name Is is great for all ages and all skill levels with games. It was really easy to learn and to play, was super fun, and is definitely a quality party game. And it is only $10 which is an awesome price!

FIDE: UBS Closing FIDE Bank Account Today
According to FIDE officials, UBS Bank in Switzerland is closing the account of the World Chess Federation today. FIDE still hasn't found a new bank.
Today, UBS Bank's deadline for FIDE to find a new financial partner expires. As was announced in February, the Swiss bank will now be closing the account, says FIDE Treasurer Adrian Siegel.
UBS could not confirm or deny the report to Chess.com, and provided only a general statement: "We can't comment on whether individuals or organizations are clients of UBS. We follow all laws and regulations that are applicable to us."
A closing of the account would mean all operations between FIDE and UBS will be terminated. Payment orders will no longer be executed and incoming payments will be returned to the sender. Debit and credit cards will be blocked.
According to FIDE officials, UBS is terminating its relations with FIDE because of its president Kirsan Ilyumzhinov's presence on the sanctions list of the U.S. Department of the Treasury. Ilyumzhinov himself has stated that the sanctions were not mentioned by UBS.
Despite several efforts, FIDE failed to find a new bank in time. "We have to deal with another finance institute which allows us to manage our financial obligations," Siegel told Chess.com.
On April 26, Ilyumzhinov sent a letter to FIDE's executive director Nigel Freeman, in which he gave the contact details of two banks which, he suggested, might work with FIDE: CIM Bank in Geneva and Bank of America in New Jersey.
The next day Freeman replied in a letter, stating that FIDE already had unsuccessful talks with CIM Bank because this bank also has a problem with Ilyumzhinov as the head of FIDE. He lists 18 banks that "refused to even meet with us," mentions banks in Georgia and Romania who refused to open accounts and finishes his letter saying: "I do not think you can be serious suggesting a U.S. bank, whilst you, as President of FIDE, are still on the U.S. Treasury sanctions list."
"It is no help at all (or at least it has a hypocritical touch) if suggestions for a new bank come in only four days prior to the closure of the accounts," wrote Siegel. "No serious bank can open an account in four days."
Siegel said that the current FIDE assets would be transferred to "another financial institute" but he could not say which as to not "jeopardise the business."
Freeman confirmed to Chess.com that FIDE has "taken its measures." He doesn't see any "major effects on people" and hopes to have resolved the situation in a week or two.
Chess.com spoke to Lisa Fritts of Bank of America (one of Ilyumzhinov's contacts), who confirmed that her bank was ready to investigate the possibility of opening an account as long as the entity has a presence in America and a tax authority number.
Fritts said she had been in touch with a person named Glen Stark, a venture capitalist and fan of chess (as is mentioned in his cv, in PDF here). Stark is also the President & CEO of the "Kirsan Fund," which was founded one year ago and is intended to support "chess in schools," "chess in villages," "chess in families" and "chess for people with disabilities."
Stark, who is a member of Ilyumzhinov's ticket for the FIDE presidential elections (announced a few day ago), plans to register the Kirsan Fund at the Bank of America, which will obviously have a direct link with FIDE if Ilyumzhinov wins the presidential elections.
Whether such a construction could circumvent problems arising from Ilyumzhinov's presence on the sanctions list remains to be seen.
"From the information I received verbally, we are talking about an American company with a tax authority number. I don't see a problem with that," Fritts said.
Freeman said he couldn't yet comment on whether such a construction would be possible. "We're seeking legal advice."
Ilyumzhinov was added to the sanctions list in November 2015. His name was specifically mentioned as part of a group "providing support to the government of Syria, including for facilitating Syrian government oil purchases from ISIL."
Ilyumzhinov is currently not responsible for any legal, financial and business operations of FIDE; those are being taken care of by FIDE deputy president Georgios Makropoulos. For UBS Bank and, as now becomes clear for many more banks, this doesn't make a difference.
The FIDE presidential elections will be on October 3. If no other candidates will appear, the vote will go between Makropoulos, who recently announced his candidacy, and Ilyumzhinov.

This wonderful group of people was our Thanksgiving this year. My brother and his amazing family got to come down and spend a week playing with us.
They arrived late Friday night the week before Thanksgiving. I had made plans to spend the Saturday with my friend Brenda at SLC's Time out for Women. That was one of the best and most selfish birthday present I have ever given someone. I had a wonderful time with a shot in the arm of optimism and a wonderful reality check of what is truly important in my life. While I was off wearing out a seat in the Maverick Center, everyone but Taylor and baby Matthew were off to a BYU football game. They left in the rain and came back in the rain but had a great, cold but somewhat dry time during the game, fueled by caramel corn and sporting dollar store ponchos.
We just love having family with us so much that we we just spend every moment we can with them and the days fly by way too fast. They checked my girls out of school Tuesday to take them to an outstanding children's museum and took them on a ropes course that was scarily high up in the rafters. We went swimming, cooked and ate a ton, big kids all went to see Mockingjay, little kids watched way too many movies, ice skating, and shakes at JCW's. Mimi introduced Allison to late night/early morning Black Friday shopping. We all went up to Temple Square for the lights and to see Savior of the World. And mostly we just were able to spend time visiting and being together. If we could we would have just forced them all to stay another week at least.
After dinner this year we had each kid perform for us. I loved seeing everyone show off a song. My favorite was Spencer on the guitar singing "Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer." And we won't talk about what Spencer has been eating this week, its a little sickening. Yes, that is ALL pie.
The week before Daniel's family arrived was full of volleyball. Spencer had his volleyball play-offs. Amazingly they had a nail biting game that they won, beating a team that had previously trounced them. It was awesome to watch Spencer and his team really step it up. Allison and I had to miss the final game as we had mutual. By the end of the week Robyn was a little done with cheering for volleyball. And yes they lost the final game but it was a well fought loss so all walked away happy.
