I love Birmingham, and not just because some of my blood was spilled in its streets. I love it because it's a place where we can look out and see where we've come from and how far God has brought us…. I'd like to see all of the people of Birmingham embrace each other in love, in the spirit of fellowship and brotherhood. To the extent that happens, Birmingham, which once rested on the ash heap of civilization, can become known as a shining example of how people can change and how we can move forward in human relations. God chose Birmingham, which means He chose all of us, then and now.
— Fred Shuttlesworth (2005)
As Birmingham moves in earnest into this year of commemoration, it seems wise to take a moment to reflect on a few important questions. For instance, just what is it we're commemorating? What lessons do we hope to draw from taking a collective look back at our richly checkered past? And, perhaps most critical of all, how can we apply those lessons to building a future that is worthy of the courage of our forbears a half-century ago — of the lives and livelihoods risked, the sacrifices made, the blood spilled in our streets?
First and foremost, of course, we are commemorating the pivotal events of the Civil Rights Movement that took place here in 1963 — the arrest of Martin Luther King, leading to his authorship of one of the seminal documents of American freedom, "Letter from Birmingham City Jail"; the "Children's Crusade" that laid bare the lengths to which some in the city would go in their efforts to stem the tide of transformation; the horror at Sixteenth Street Baptist Church that shocked the nation into full understanding of the need for action and propelled the passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Cumulatively, these events and the reactions to them, both locally and nationally, made the civil rights of black Americans an American issue, not just a Southern one.
In the course of a few short months, Birmingham changed the world.
The other thing we are commemorating is the process that ran on a track parallel to the dramatic developments of the Movement, though one considerably less public and certainly less known to history. That would be the process that culminated in the voters of Birmingham — black and white — choosing first to change the city's form of government and then to banish Bull Connor from City Hall.
Shedding the light of historical review on this process is the purpose of Weld's ongoing series, "No More Bull." In delving into the "deep history" of change in Birmingham, historians Sol Kimerling and Pam King have called attention to the nuances of our city's transformation, pointing out that the "revolution" that deposed Bull Connor included the nonviolent tactical warfare of the Movement, strategic skirmishes that took place in offices and boardrooms, and the march on voting booths that forever altered the morally and operationally corrupt system under which Birmingham had operated.
We would do well to remember that in a year in which the voters of Birmingham will have yet another opportunity to go to the polls and exercise their influence over the present and future of our city. In the midst of all of the commemoration, we will be taking the unprecedented step of electing a mayor, a city council and a school board, all at the same time.
As we do so, I can think of no better way both to pay tribute to all of the heroes of yesteryear and set our course for the future than by voting for candidates who demonstrate that they are attuned to the ongoing drumbeat of social justice. By this I mean that it's time to hold those who would lead us accountable on the issues that must be addressed if Birmingham is to claim its birthright at last — the issues that affect every person in this community in one way or another.
Start with education. By most accounts, the Birmingham City Schools system is finally inching its way in the right direction — though it took a state takeover and the removal of the sitting president of the Birmingham Board of Education to do it. There is a building momentum for true change at the board level, but this an issue that should figure not only in school board elections, but also in our selection of a mayor and city councilors.
Another "social justice" issue? How about our mass transit system — or, rather, what has passed for one for too long in these parts. In all of our fine and generally well-intended community, I wonder whether there is any group of people that is more routinely spat upon, figuratively speaking, than citizens whose ability to get from one location to another is dependent on the good graces of the Birmingham-Jefferson County Transit Authority. We desperately need leadership from city government on this, and as voters we should demand it.
We also need to take a look at how we deal with the homeless of our community. This is a problem that is growing, not shrinking, and that's going to be the case until positive actions are taken. Efforts are underway at the grassroots level to do a better job of providing and coordinating homeless services, and we should elect people who are committed to supporting and accelerating those efforts.
Finally, we need elected leaders who think about the city as a whole, and not just the district that elects them. The attitude of provinciality that rules our City Council in particular is shameful, and must be changed.
Of all of the rights and freedoms won by the Civil Rights Movement, none is more precious, nor more critical to the prospect of ongoing progress, than voting. We should hold this as a sacred trust between ourselves and our posterity — and exercise it as a means of honoring the simple heroism of those who went to the polls 50 years ago to liberate Birmingham from the grip of fear and hatred. Then and only then will we get the leaders we deserve.

Our Brand - The Principles
Over the last century, Sheridan Nurseries has developed a reputation for providing our customers with quality products and excellent service. It is on these principles, that we have been able to endure hardships, regroup and become stronger each time.
The strong foundation of Sheridan Nurseries is very much a tribute to the Dunington-Grubbs and Herman Stensson, for placing the company on a path of strength and stability during the early years.
To this day Sheridan Nurseries is still owned and operated by the Stensson family. As the third generation of Stenssons take Sheridan Nurseries through its 100th year in business, it remains evident that the promise outlined in 1913 is still being fulfilled.
Watch our short historical video for more information on the Sheridan story...{A century of milestones...}
Howard & Lorrie Dunington-Grubb
Howard & Lorrie Dunington-Grubb
Howard Burlingham Grubb was born April 30th, 1881 in York, England. In 1908 he graduated from the Landscape School of Cornell University and returned to England.
In 1910 he met Lorrie Alfreda Dunington, the first female landscape architect in England. In 1911 they married, and adopted the combined surname Dunington-Grubb and immigrated to Canada. In May 1911 they opened a Toronto office as landscape architects.
In the spring of 1911, little interest was being taken in ornamental gardening in Canada as the few nurseries operating in Ontario at that time concentrated largely on fruit. The supply of such luxuries was so limited that a nursery had to be started.
Nonetheless, Howard and Lorrie were first and foremost landscape architects - with a mission!{Browse the large scale projects...}

One Pan Creamy Basil Chicken With Bacon & Corn And Cauli-Mash
One Pan Creamy Basil Chicken With Bacon and Corn what can I say about you. You are super easy quick to make, you're fuss-free and only require a handful of ingredients. Can make you in one pan so fewer dishes for this tired mum to wash up and oh let's not forget how utterly delicious you are. I mean who can't pass up bacon in a dish. Uh, not me. I am a bacon fiend. It's a weakness that I find it hard to resist anything with bacon in it. Tell me you are the same? I feel like these days my cooking style has changed from loving to cook and experimenting in the kitchen to survival mode and feeling like anything that requires more than a couple of steps is far too hard for me to cook on a weeknight. I mean I feel like by the end of the day I've fed enough humans every couple of hours why the heck do they need to eat dinner too. Can't they just eat cereal and be happy about it?
The act of cooking dinner for the family each night is a process which I feel like a fight against a lot. Around morning tea time I consult the menu plan as to what we are having for dinner (menu plan is a survival mode mum's lifesaver) and pull out what meat I need to cook for said dinner. Now if I had my head screwed on I would cook what I can for dinner when the kid's go down for a nap in the afternoon but I am just so jolly tired that I glance at the food on the bench and go "meh" and go and have a nap or read a book instead. Sometimes you just gotta switch off from the world. When 3.30pm rolls around and chaos reigns with all the kids whining at my feet for snacks, they're tired, want to watch cartoons, or trying to juggle helping out with homework I then think dammit I should have cooked dinner earlier. Still haven't learnt my lesson though. Ha.
This One Pan Creamy Basil Chicken With Bacon & Corn is a sister recipe to my Creamy Chicken Thighs With Mushrooms & Herbs. Except this one has a different flavour profile and it's got BACON. Need I say more. Since I had my lazy pants on I went with serving the chicken with a simple but oh so delicious Cauli-mash that is my go-to comfort food with a dish like this. This dish is perfect in the deep of winter, early autumn or in my case the tendrils of spring reaching into the cold depths of winter tantalising us with how close it is. Whatever the weather is at your place make sure you add this dish to your menu plan and I promise you if you have your lazy pants on like I did it will be the perfect dinner for your family.
P.s This dish would make a great slow cooker meal. I mean just fry off the bacon before adding to the crockpot or slow cooker and add the rest of the ingredients. Cook it for 4-6 hours on high or 8 hours on low. Add the cornflour about 30 minutes before serving to thicken the gravy.
One Pan Creamy Basil Chicken With Bacon & Corn And Cauli-Mash
Prep Time: 15-20 min
Cook Time: 35-45 min
Ingredients (Serves 6)
- 4 rashers shortcut bacon, sliced thinly
- 900g chicken thighs
- 1tbsp olive oil

Course Brief
Thermodynamics is one of the most common applications of science in our lives, and it is so much a part of our daily life that it is often taken for granted. For example, when driving your car you know that the fuel you put into the tank is converted into energy to propel the vehicle, and the heat produced by burning gas when cooking will produce steam which can lift the lid of the pan. These are examples of thermodynamics, which is the study of the dynamics and behaviour of
energy and its manifestations.
This unit introduces students to the principles and concepts of thermodynamics and its application in modern engineering.
On successful completion of this unit students will be able to investigate fundamental thermodynamic systems and their properties, apply the steady flow energy equation to plant equipment, examine the principles of heat transfer to industrial applications, and determine the performance of internal combustion engines.

The reason for the surge in the application of machine learning techniques to space exploration stems, in part, from the need to manage extremely large datasets. The data sets that are produced by space exploration efforts are enormous and call for the application of machine learning techniques.
The SKA project is an international effort to construct the world's most enormous radio telescope and is the perfect illustration of data overload. SKA uses thousands of dishes and one million antennas to monitor the entire sky in great detail, transmitting data at higher speeds than any system in existence today. Together, these radio-telescopes generate approximately seven-hundred terabytes of data per second. In perspective, this amount of data is equivalent to the amount of data transmitted through the internet every two days (Kirkovska, 2018).
That being said, transmitting such high volumes of data from deep space to Earth has generated issues. Seeing as host planets differ in their rotational speeds and direction/orbits, these massive data packets must be transmitted to Earth during specific windows of time. This delay, lasting between months and years, is dependent on how far Earth lies from the spacecraft's host planet (Tian, 2018). This process is critical because a spacecraft's tracking and communications systems are the only means with which to interact with it after it has left Earth because deep space missions don't return to Earth after launch (Knosp, 2018). Suppose that data packet transmission is unsuccessful, it is possible for data to be permanently lost if it was overwritten with new data in the onboard memory (Tian, 2018).
Machine learning is instrumental in managing transmission issues. In 2005, the Mars Express AI Tool (MEXAR2), was introduced by the Institute for Science and Technology (ISTC-CNR) (Tian, 2018). The onboard learning algorithm leverages historical data to filter superfluous data and recognize the download schedule, ultimately optimizing data packet transmission (Tian, 2018). This outer data transmission technique is already implored by NASA and other space agencies worldwide in space research programs (Tian, 2018).
MEXAR2 weighs variables that may impact data downloading. More specifically, MEXAR2 weights the overall science observation schedule for all Mars Express instruments in an attempt to predict which on-board data packets might be later lost due to memory conflicts. Based on these predictions, it generates a data download schedule and creates the commands needed to implement the download. Fred Jansen, ESA's mission manager for Mars Express, was quoted saying, "With MEXAR2, any loss of stored data packets has been largely eliminated" (ESA, 2008).
Thus, machine learning is imperative in the process of storing and processing the exponential amount of incoming data and generating valuable insights.

|This guideline documents an English Wikipedia naming convention.
It is a generally accepted standard that editors should attempt to follow, though it is best treated with common sense, and occasional exceptions may apply. Any substantive edit to this page should reflect consensus. When in doubt, discuss first on the talk page.
|Article titles
|All naming conventions
|Arts · Entertainment · Media

|Lists · Categories
This page contains naming conventions for articles related to government offices, elections and legislation.
Guidelines for government departments, agencies, and officials[edit]
- Use official names in article titles (United States Department of the Treasury instead of Treasury Department), unless an agency is almost always known by an acronym or different title (DARPA).
- When creating an article with a common title, be sure to disambiguate it properly: For example, Department of Justice (Canada), Minister for Foreign Affairs (Australia), Cabinet Office (Japan). Disambiguation is unnecessary if the country or other jurisdiction is a natural part of the subject's name (Statistics New Zealand, Royal Australian Navy), a common method of disambiguating in common speech exists (Cabinet of Germany, Prime Minister of Japan, Treasurer of Australia), or if the agency or office name is unique or is by far the most common meaning, the primary topic (Ministry of Panchayati Raj, Foreign and Commonwealth Office). Care should be taken to avoid convoluted or artificial constructions: Something of Something of Jurisdictionname.
- When creating a new article with a name that might refer to another existing entity for which an article is not yet written, take care to "pre-disambiguate" it, and create a disambiguation page (listing your new article and red links to yet-to-be written articles with identical or similar titles).
- When writing articles on government bodies or offices with native titles not in English, an English translation should be favored, except when reliable sources in the English language commonly use the native title. For example, National Assembly of Bulgaria (not Narodno sabranie) but 2003 loya jirga (not 2003 Grand Assembly) and Bundestag (not Parliament of Germany).
Elections and referendums[edit]
- For individual elections and referendums, use the format "Date [adjectival form of country name] type election/referendum" (e.g. 1867 Canadian federal election, 1946 Faroese independence referendum etc).
- For an article covering multiple elections to bodies or positions of the same type, use the format "Date [adjectival form of country name] type elections" (e.g. 1987 Spanish regional elections, 2010 Brazilian gubernatorial elections)
- For articles relating to the part of an election held in a specific region or country, use the format "Date [adjectival form of country name] type election in subdivision" (e.g. 1945 French legislative election in Algeria, 2019 European Parliament election in France etc)
- For future elections of uncertain date, use a form similar to Next Irish general election. When the year of the election is known, titles like this should redirect to an article title with a year (e.g. 2016 Irish general election), since "next" is a moving target.
- For elections to particular bodies or offices, default to the form "Date [adjectival form of country name] Body/Office election", as in: 2007 Scottish Parliament election, 2008 Nepalese Constituent Assembly election, or 2011 Kentucky Attorney General election.
- Choose the terms by-election/special election according on which term is appropriate to the relevant country: 2007 Massachusetts's 5th congressional district special election (American usage), 2008 Glasgow East by-election (British usage).
- For US initiatives and similar ballot measures, use the format "Year Jurisdiction Measure Identifier" (1978 California Proposition 13; 2009 Washington Referendum 71; 2009 Maine Question 1).
Guidance on naming conventions for legislation:
- Prefer titles that reflect the name commonly used in reliable sources.
- Generally, use the short title instead of the long title (for example, European Parliamentary Elections Act 1999 instead of An Act to amend the European Parliamentary Elections Act 1978 so as to alter the method used in Great Britain for electing Members of the European Parliament to make other amendments of enactments relating to the election of Members of the European Parliament and for connected purposes), unless the long title is much better known. However, a redirect from long to short titles should be created, and the long title should be included in the article.
- Observe official titles and common use: In the United States, the form typically includes "of" with the year (Judiciary Act of 1789), while legislation in Britain and the Commonwealth realms tends to be referred to by the short name form and then the year without any comma or "of" between them (Judiciary Act 1903).
- If several acts have the same common name, the title should:
- Redirect to the primary topic, if one exists (the page Clean Water Act is about the U.S. federal law, with a link to non-primary topic Clean Water Act (Ontario) at the top of the page), or
- Be a disambiguation page (for example, Official Secrets Act or Representation of the People Act), if multiple acts of substantially equal importance exist, or
- Redirect to an article about the series of acts, if a set of acts are related (for example, Townshend Act redirects to Townshend Acts). This also applies to when two acts are passed with the same name and year in two separate parliaments, as in different enactments of the same piece of legislation; a single article should be created, with the singular redirecting to the plural: Act of Union 1707 redirects to Acts of Union 1707
- If the two different acts are passed in the same year with the same title, parenthetically disambiguate based on country: European Communities Act 1972 (UK) and European Communities Act 1972 (Ireland).


text:
I love you with the fury of a hurricane, the relentlessness of the sea, the boundlessness of the sky. My love is wider and deeper and fuller than you can imagine. It is like no other love you've ever known – I love you because you were made to be loved by me, not because I need something from you.
I have great plans for you, because my love for you is infinite. It doesn't matter what you've done or where you've been, my love for you will never run out. I will never abandon or fail you.
I know the things that hurt you, and I know the mistakes you've made. I see the brokeness around you and inside you. I see the hunger for my love that you can't satisfy with anything else. I see the meaninglessness of a life separated from your true identity. I am able – if you are willing – to rewrite that story.
If you are honest, you know that there is more to your existence than what you can see. That's because I planted eternity in your heart, so that you would find me.
All I ask right now is that you put aside what you think you know about me, and consider what I have to say. Abandon your fears and prejudices for just a moment – because if I am who I say I am, you can't afford to miss me. I dare you to open your heart just a crack, to hear my story that is your story.
All your life I have reached for you, longed for you. I am God, and I want you to find me.
I am the God who loves
God is good, and everything he does is good. He overflows with joy and delights to saturate us with his generosity. His character is love – the kind that is unselfish, unstoppable and uncontainable.
We were made by him and live through him. We are the object of his wild affection, created to be loved by him and to love him. When we are living like this, we are fully alive. We are full of hope, freedom and peace. We are complete in our identity and purpose, and we have a destiny that is too beautiful for words.
I am the God who sees
The problem – the reason we can't live this kind of life – is that we have rejected God's plan for us. Every one of us has turned away from him. Our abandonment of God's way of love is what invites evil into our lives and our world. In rejecting God's protection, evil has gained rights over us.
Where there is no punishment for evil, evil rules. It enslaves, oppresses and destroys. It takes possession of every human heart that gives even the smallest permission, consuming like a cancer until it kills. We see evil all around us and in us cause havoc through injustice, greed and selfishness. Because evil leads to pain and death, a loving God can't accept that. Evil can not be a part of his beautiful plan, so it must be destroyed. Which means that we, as people who have been claimed by evil, must be destroyed.
I am the God who rescues
But the God who loves justice also loves mercy: he desires both because of his fierce love for us. He found a way to transfer our debt to death onto himself, so that he could pay for it with his own life. He sacrificed his perfect son so that we would be rescued from death. He has paid the debts of sinners so that they could be his sons, the penalty of delinquents so that they could be his daughters. He defeated evil's power over us when he defied death and returned to life, giving us the opportunity to enter real life – his life.
His life is eternal, abundant, and free. It welcomes us back into relationship with him, where we find our joy and purpose. It makes us new, giving us a fresh start. It transforms us from slaves to sin to free children of God. This payment has been made for everybody, including you.
I am the God who restores
The good news doesn't stop at transforming our own lives, it is the promise of our world transformed. God's plan is to restore the whole earth to him, to the beauty and rightness that he has created it for. He is going to make all things new. He is creating a new heaven and a new earth, where there won't be any more pain or evil. And he wants you to be a part of that.
What if I'm real? What if I'm good? What if I'm the source of your life and the hope of your future?
What if I really can heal, restore, set free? What if you were made to love me – that in loving me, you could find your purpose, wholeness, freedom and joy?
I am the God who stands at the door of your heart and knocks. Will you let me in?

My three rules to beat the trolls
It remains my favourite line about a sportsperson.
When I was in a studio about to go to a live cross to New Zealand on Paul Holmes current affairs television show a couple of decades ago, he opened his show saying, "Thank you, for joining us. Tonight, we look at the John Hopoate using his finger in the tackles story. Is he an animal, is he a brute or ... is he just lonely?"
Boom, boom!
Which brings me, oddly enough, to social media trolls. At a time when they are in the news as never before, with endless complaints about their ability to wound, to vilify, and inflame, might I offer a few words from one who has had vast experience with them?
For I really do think most of them are just lonely, desperate for a reaction, any reaction just to affirm their own existence. In my case the subject that caused the most online abuse, might surprise you. It was nothing to do with the republic, climate change, atheism, concussion or the view that every now and then Alan Jones should put a sock on it. All........

Christmas presents to us an opportunity afresh to be born within the Good News - that God entered the world as a baby to reset what has been broken. Upside-down divine logic sends God to live and die as one of God's own creations in order to save and redeem them. In the gospel of Luke, Jesus's first act of public ministry is to proclaim that his mission is to "bring good news to the poor, proclaim liberty to the captive, sight to the blind, release those imprisoned, and proclaim the time of God's favor." This time of God's favor, a year of jubilee, was not something Jesus made up but was a known concept to the hearers of Jesus's teaching. The idea of a jubilee year comes from Leviticus, a Hebrew Bible book of laws and regulations. At the end of seven seven-year cycles (7x7=49), the fiftieth year is proclaimed to be the year the slaves are sent home again to their families, captured properties turned over to their original owners, and all debts forgiven. Jubilee makes space for all of us to experience life-giving renewal in our ordinary, day-to-day lives.
I am so longing for a jubilee year. I long for our world to moved to act against injustice in any form. I long for those I love and care for who are imprisoned (literally and metaphorically) to be free. For many of my millennial peers who are ensnared by mountains of debt and for end-of-career age people unable to retire because of debt, I long for debt to not be the measure by which we are forced to order our days. I know I'm not alone in these longings. I hear many in our congregation express specific anxieties and general worries about the future.
Metropolitan Community Churches is entering the fiftieth year of ministry as a denomination, and I pray that as a church body rooted in the values of salvation, community, and Christian social action that we take seriously what jubilee might mean for us. This Sunday's sermon will discuss our shared history and explore what jubilee might mean for us as individuals and church community. I pray we can join together to proclaim next year as the year of the Lord's favor and feel the security and hope that Christmas assures us.

Five Reasons Why Machine Learning Needs To Make Resumes Obsolete
By Louis Columbus on May 14, 2018
Hiring companies nationwide miss out on 50% or more of qualified candidates and tech firms incorrectly classify up 80% of candidates due to inaccuracies and shortcomings of existing Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS), illustrating how faulty these systems are for enabling hiring. It takes on average 42 days to fill a position, and up to 60 […]

This grounding probe for aquatic environments is created specifically to
neutralize the "stray voltage" in the tank from the various electronic
devices connected to the tank (i.e. a heater, filter, air pump, protein
skimmer, a UVB light, etc.). The probe comes with a ten foot long wire lead
to give plenty of space to create a drip loop. Excess voltage in the
tank can cause stress on the aquatic species living in the environment, and
protects you from accidental power surges. The titanium metal rod used
is noncorrosive and nontoxic. This device must be connected to proven
ground. If the proven ground is unknown, we suggest having a licensed
electrician test the circuit for positive ground. Instructions are included
with the probe. Can be used in freshwater and saltwater.

Join Emma Wright as she explores CIC Boston's innovation community, meeting with local entrepreneurs to discuss their trials and triumphs launching new ventures. This episode features David Delmar, Founder of Resilient Coders, a nonprofit education organization providing training to make tech jobs accessible to underrepresented communities in Boston.
Below is a partial transcript of the CIC Founder's Spotlight interview with David Delmar, Founder and CEO of Resilient Coders.
Emma Wright: You've had quite a career in web design and UX working for big companies like paypal -- but you didn't start out in this field. What led you to design?
David Delmar: So I went to art school. The plan was to be a comic book illustrator. I love to draw, so I went to school and left with my degree in design. I love design, but everybody that I went to interview with were like, "cool so you can design, but can you also build some of these websites that you're designing?" -- and I'd be like "I said art school."
No, I can't I can't build the stuff out, but I can design it. So I just got a lot of "thanks, but no thanks." That was until I landed an interview at the Boston Phoenix. And I've got to tell you, they took a pretty wild shot on me. They went in and I got the same interview questions. "Can you actually build this out?" And I said, "yeah I can do that." And they went for it. They took a huge chance on me. I taught myself the fundamentals pretty quickly. And then I just I started kind of gravitating towards towards web design and web development and I started realizing its value in the art world as well.
The example that I always give people when they ask about combining art and technology is that I actually once during a make-a-thon event that I had when I was at Paypal, I drew the beginnings of a comic book that pulls in Facebook data; the name of the character is your name, the other characters are your friend's names, it takes place in your city, that kind of stuff.
One of the things that I love most about development was the fact that I believe technology to be --particularly the startup innovation community -- I believed it to be a meritocracy. I believed it to be one of those things where if you're just really good at it, you can make it, right? And this allowed me to believe about myself that I'm this special flower because I taught myself all this stuff.
You go to a tech event and you just look around. If we're in a meritocracy, the numbers in the field would reflect the numbers in the city, right? We should have X number of women, we should have Y number of people from communities of color... and it's just really not the case. The kind of "aha" moment was when I went to this huge festival, a big tech conference. I heard some of the best and brightest, these kind of brilliant luminaries of our day, get up on stage and pitch these beautiful and elegant technical solutions to non-problems -- to, like, micro inconveniences.
And I left feeling a little bit disappointed as someone who believes in technology as a meritocracy. and I actually believe that technology has a role in social progress. I believe the whole role of technology, going back to the development of the wheel and the aqueducts in Rome, has the responsibility of advancing our standard of living for all of us. You can't you can't even talk about a moment in social progress or a pivotal moment in history without tipping your hat to the technology that made it happen. You have to think how different the civil rights movement of the 1960s would be without TV. This is the role that I believe technology must play in society.
The point is, I felt like technology could do more. Should do more. Must do more. I felt that members of the tech community had a responsibility to reflect on what technology is, what technology should represent in our society, and then how do we get there. I was at this festival and I started listening for the language that I grew up with, which was Spanish. And I started just counting people that I could visually identify as people of color, and I made it to 14 people. We're talking like one of the big tech conferences in the country, like tens of thousands of people, and I was there for about four days. This is a problem. This is a real problem. And back in 2013 nobody was talking about this problem. So I left and I I just started kind of trying to figure out what we needed to do. I actually started volunteering some of my time while I was at PayPal. I took like a vacation day a week, every Wednesday, and I went down to a youth detention facility and teach a class. And while I was doing this I was kind of workshopping other ideas, like, "I'm going to build my way out of this problem," or "we're going to create a piece of software that solves the problem."
At one point I actually threw a lot of my ideas at Tim Rowe (Founder of CIC) - I had sort of pinned him down and would say, like "well I'm thinking we might do this. I think we do that." And he'd kind of find a polite way to say, "Let's let's keep thinking." And everyone I was shopping these different ideas too, I'd end with "Also, I'm teaching this class at this youth detention facility, and..." People would be like... "hold up. Forget about the other stuff you're talking about -- what did you say about teaching young people who are disenfranchised how to develop websites?" And that took root.
I had spoken on the phone to the educational director of this facility while this was going on -- and she asked me "Well you know what, what name should we get to this class of you're doing?" And I said I don't know, like, "Coding 101?" She was like, "That's a stupid idea. No one will attend this class. You should find a way to make it clear to these young men that their challenges and their hardships can actually be an asset to them. Something that, in the name, you articulate the fact that this is something that can make them unique and also illustrates what the class actually is." "All right well, what about some like Resilient Coders?" She was like, "Cool that will work." And the guys really just gravitated towards it.
EW: how did you get into to developing this full program? Recruiting people? Choosing Boston?
DD: Well I kind of did everything the wrong way. I'm a huge proponent of the Agile Methodology. And so I made a commitment that I wanted our nonprofit to operate, feel like, and retain the culture of a tech startup because that's where we were all from. And so I decided that we were going to build the program the way that I used to build software, which was to identify some assumptions that we were making, to build a shortcut or test those assumptions, then measure them, build, pivot. So this kind of constant build--measure--pivot loop over and over and over again. So for the first year-and-a-half we were just testing, doing a whole bunch of cohorts. We did a cohort at a detention facility. We did a cohort at South Bay House of Correction facility, four different "troubled schools", summer camp, like, a one-week coding camp. We did it all. We did all the things, each time specifically testing things. And one of the things that we noticed was that within our cohorts we had a small group of individuals who were a little bit older than high school, and they asked if they could join anyways. And of course we said "Sure, why not" and kind of looked the other way. And we discovered that this population came to this discipline with a completely different mindset. They came with notebooks open. So we decided to launch our first ever bootcamp in January, 2016, and now we're on bootcamp number five.
EW: So your team is ramping up the number of boot camps per year, You have your agency up and running, and you just hired another team member. What's the next big challenge for your team?
DD: Jobs. The first thing that I think about every morning when I wake up and the last thing I'm thinking about when I go to bed is how are we going to place butts in the seats. Jobs. Everything we do -- the lab, the instruction, and everything that goes with that -- serves the ultimate purpose of placing individuals into into lucrative, meaningful jobs and career paths. And we're scaling up the number of people that we serve which means that we also must scale up the number of jobs that we place into. What we get asked a lot is "what can we do? Can we volunteer our time?" The answer to that is far and away, jobs. I want you to go to your company and advocate for one of our Resilient Coders to be hired into your company. It might be an uncomfortable conversation, right? But I have a personal motto that you should try to make somebody uncomfortable every day. Have that conversation make somebody squirm a little bit. I would press people to have a conversation with their company around your D & I, diversity and inclusion policy. The overwhelming likelihood is that you don't have one in your company.
Something that we also kind of poke and prod at is hiring practices. A lot of people have a lot of unconscious bias in the way that they hire and people don't really realize that. A classic example of this is that if you're if you're interviewing for a job as a developer you might be asked to show some work that you've done on a free and open source software project. You know who contributes a free and open source software projects? People who have the time to work on stuff and not be paid, so that is, on some level, exclusionary to a class of people who are strapped for time. We talk a lot about the privilege of time at Resilient Coders, and our students are given stipends to be here because we don't want to take for granted or assume that individuals have time to take to take a couple of months off of work.
And so there are many practices at the point of hiring that go well beyond, like, "Am I just as likely to hire to Shauna as I am to hire Sean?" But people I think are aware of some of them and not aware of others. And by the way, a plug if people want to learn more about some of the sort of unconscious bias that we've uncovered by just talking to folks -- you should check out resilientcoders.org/diversityplaybook. It's totally free. It's essentially a whole bunch of stuff that we've noticed that people do that have locked entire groups of people out of jobs. Degree inflation is another one. There are a lot of companies out there that when they have a req out, the B.A. is required. And you've got to ask like, is the B.A. really required, and why? Is it just because you and I learned a certain number of interpersonal skills while you were in college and assume that that's how everybody else learns them? Or is because that Psych 101 class that you took sophomore year is really important job?
So there's a lot of stuff that there to unpack. There's a lot that people may not agree with, which is great. I got to make somebody uncomfortable today, but hopefully that helps start a conversation. That's a huge one for allies, for people who are like I want to hire a Resilient Coder at my company, but nobody will listen to me. We will arm you with data. We have data in there from McKinsey, from the Kapoor institute, a whole bunch of different organizations that have said "look at the numbers." Companies that report being ethnically diverse report returns that are a 35 percent stronger than the national average. There are real numbers to be had there.

Lerner Ramp: Inhabitable Wall
Program: Columbia University BA Architecture
Semester: Spring 2010
Studio: Introduction to Architecture: Perceptions Studio
Critic: Madeline Schwartzman
Materials: Basswood, Trace Paper
Lerner Hall is Columbia University's student center designed by Bernard Tschumi. The Lerner inhabitable wall project started from a series of collages. The collages were a analytical tool for understanding the space and to give direction to the inhabitable wall design. The project's analysis of the Lerner Hall ramps took advantage of Lerner's physical and visual transparency. From multiple areas and vantage points within the Lerner ramp space, students and participants within the space can make unobstructed visual connections to one another and their future destination locations.
The collages were manipulated and turned into relief structures. First, parts of the collage were extruded as intersecting planes creating volumes. These extrusions originated from multiple points which translate to the multiple perspective and points of visual accessibility in the ramp void space. What developed from the aggregated perspective volumes was a jagged terrain of shards and undulating planes. The inhabitable wall is composed of multiple units which can be assembled, reorganized, and pulled apart to create seating, study areas, and intimate spaces. The structure cantilevers into the void space to create more visual intersections for visitors to enjoy.

Google has made some missteps and some flat out stumbles in its social networking strategy, but its new image saving feature is a promising foothold to reestablish themselves in the market. Users who search for images on Google's image search engine will now be able to save images to their Google profile. This might seem innocuous until you see how similar this feature is to the functionality of the popular social networking site Pinterest. Google's new image searching system will also have a guided experience that allows users to easily narrow down their results or even organically offer suggestions for similar searches. Pinterest has been doing this for some time already. This new feature comes on the heels of Google's overhaul of Google+ so it's likely that the company is hoping a familiar image saving and sharing feature like Pinterest will help get people back on board with their products.

Pleased to announce the launch of our sister ministry IGC's, The Inclusive Grace-filled Community, new website.
When we planted our first church in September 2000, the Lord gave us a simple mandate to grow a church by grace alone, Abundant Life Church and The Grace Project were born out of that vision. Fourteen years on and thinking that our church planting days were behind us, the Lord spoke to us again. He wanted us to lead a community of believers in North West London, International Gospel Church (IGC), and guide them along the path of grace. This time, I must confess I was initially less than enthusiastic. I can claim no higher ground than the obdurate son who having said he would go and work in his father's vineyard eventually relented and did. (Matt. 21:29).
As I prayed about what our direction should be, I was struck by the sense of challenge from the Lord about helping this community to really grow, or grow up, in grace. What if we could make them a different kind of IGC – an Inclusive Grace Community?
I developed a concept called CLIMATE Changers – Christ Living In Me Alters The Environment – as a means of signposting what life will look like as we made room for the indwelling life of Jesus to live His life through us. It proved helpful to the community to understand that if something has life you can expect it to grow. Love grows – it expands and extends its divine influence into our homes, workplaces, communities etc.
If it's true that "I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me" (Gal. 2:20), then it follows that we might reasonably expect "the life I [we] now live," – which is the life of Christ – will positively impact the way we live. Not because we will attempt to imitate this new life, but rather that we participate in it.
In the Autumn of 2014, we began to develop this concept further by beginning to define our purpose around a model that I call Love G.R.O.W.S. The acronym is our compass – it governs our values and guides our decision-making.

Farnborough's first Saturday Home game of the new Evo-Stik League South Premier Season sees Redditch United visit The Rushmoor Community Stadium.
A quick turnaround from Wednesday's midweek loss presents Farnborough with the opportunity to get their first Home win of the new Season.
The Yellows – who are currently without injured duo Kieron Forbes and Connor Calcutt – were narrowly defeated 0-1 at Home to Royston Town last time out.
Boro' will be keen to double their points tally in the League table, especially with two big games against Merthyr Town and then Slough Town coming up next week.
Speaking after the game on Wednesday, Manager, Spencer Day said the following about our next opponents: "They won 5-0 at the weekend – the lad up top got a hat-trick. They lost right at the end last night [Tuesday] 1-0. They'll be another big physical side, that's what I said to the lads.
"We know Redditch will be another very tough game. Lets get the fans back here Saturday and I think they should be very encouraged with tonights performance and lets right it on Saturday. I'll take us to only play half as good as tonight as long as we get the three points."
Strikers, Perry Coles and Jamie Cureton will be looking to get off the mark this weekend
Redditch United
The Reds finished 17th out of 24 in last Seasons Evo-Stik League South Premier Division, three points above the final relegation place.
Redditch United are managed by former Jamaican international striker, Darren Byfield who is currently in his first management job having been appointed in May 2016.
Saturday's visitors won their opening game of the Season 5-0 at Home to Dunstable Town with a Dior Angus hat-trick and goals from Spencer Weir-Daley and Vinny Mukendi.
Like Farnborough, Redditch United suffered a 0-1 defeat in midweek, conceding a last-minute goal at Kettering Town.
Byfield told the Club website after his sides loss on Tuesday evening: "I've just said to the boys I'm absolutely delighted with them, I'm even more pleased with our performance than I was Saturday because Kettering are a good side and are going to be up there.
"We fought with them every minute and the fair result would have been a draw, even their manager said the same thing, understood what a good side we've got.
"I'm happy with how we played, I'm happy with how we fought, I've seen a massive difference with this team from last season, I'm gutted for them because we should've got something from it, but it happens and evens itself out over the season.
"It was an even match, it really was, and I'm delighted with my boys and if they keep playing like that, fighting like that, they'll be at the right end of the table at the end of the season."
Redditch United last time out (Kettering Town): Ethan Ross (gk), Keenah Rosser, Nathan Fox, Danny Jackman (Capt), Guiyoulouwe Mailancol, Orrin Pendley, Aspostolis Aspostolopoulos, McCauley Manning, Dior Angus, Kevin Da Veiga Monteiro, Spencer Weir-Daly; Vinny Mukendi, Danico Johnson, Arjun Jung, Marcel Simpson and Kaylum Mitchell.

Exodus from city for Jan 26 weekend
Starting Thursday, several Mumbaiites will leave for a short vacation as compared to the Republic Day week last year.mumbai Updated: Jan 25, 2012 01:58 IST
Starting Thursday, several Mumbaiites will leave for a short vacation as compared to the Republic Day week last year.
According to travel operators, January 26 being a Thursday, many people from the city are set to bunk work on Friday "We have witnessed a 15% rise in bookings during the Republic Day week as compared to last year," said Neelu Singh, chief operating officer, Ezeego1.com, a travel portal.
While advance planners are setting off for foreign destinations such as Dubai and Bangkok, those deciding at the last minute have booked resorts in Lonavla and Goa.
Nerul resident Divya Iyer booked herself and her husband a three-day stay at a three-star hotel in Ganpatiphule, close to Ratnagiri. It cost her Rs9000.
"Although the offer is not as cheap as compared to my previous trips, we took it up because of adds-on such as a free spa treatment and fine dining experience," said Iyer, a 28-year-old entrepreneur.
Dubai is witnessing massive traffic especially owing to the month long shopping festival that started on January 5. "We have witnessed significant flight bookings at the last minute though the fares are about 15% higher than normal," said Anup Kanuga, owner Bathija Travels.

This is my second bottle of Ren products. I love the fruity smell of this oil. As the texture is indeed oil, I really need only a few drops and I can see that this bottle will last a long way. So far, so good. But I've been using this for only more than a week so it's a little too early to notice any anti-aging effect. It's already a good news that it doesn't break me out just yet as I have combination skin. Inmake sure to still use sunscreen during the daytime even when it's winter now since there's retinoid in this bottle and your skin can be sensitive to UV ray.

A FATHER and son pair of robbers, jailed for a total of almost 15 years after holding up a Kurdish refugee with a knife and machete, have won reductions in their sentences.
Terence Bryan, 48, and his stepson Gavin Elvis Cadwallader, 25, pleaded guilty in February to the Christmas Eve robbery of 25-year-old Ahmed Jaff in 2006.
In March a Teesside Crown Court judge jailed Bryan, of Marton Road, Middlesbrough, for eight years, and Cadwallader, of Darwood Court, Hemlington, for six years.
But, after an appeal to the Court of Appeal in London, both men received a one-year reduction in their sentences, although Bryan will still serve an extra six months for failing to surrender to bail.
Mr Justice Burnett said, despite the serious nature of the robbery and its "mean-spirited" timing, both men deserved lesser sentences.
Mr Jaff was threatened with a large machete and received a minor cut to the throat from the knife during the attack in Parliament Road, Middlesbrough.
His robbers got away with £36 in cash, but were caught nearby and the money was recovered. Both initially denied the offence, but pleaded guilty at their trial.
Lawyers representing the pair argued that the sentences they had received were too high, given the fact that they had pleaded guilty and were entitled to reductions in their prison terms.
Giving the court's judgment, Mr Justice Burnett told of the "appalling record" of Bryan, who had been convicted of more than 150 offences in the past. Cadwallader also had a criminal record, but of a less serious nature, he said.
"It is difficult to imagine a more terrifying experience than being confronted by these two men, one with a knife and one with a machete," he said. But, considering their guilty pleas, he said reductions of a year in each of the men's sentences would be made.
Bryan will serve a total of seven-and- a-half years, while Cadwallader will serve five years.

I started learning English when I was five, when my mother brought home a book for us to learn new words from together.
"Darling," she said, "can you imagine that children somewhere far away call everything by a completely different name? Let's try to name everything around us as they do. If you speak English, you can easily make new friends in any part of the world."
My mother has a very typical Soviet background. She doesn't speak English, but twenty years ago, even without that knowledge, she managed to make learning the language an interesting experience for me. In a typical Ukrainian public school, English is one of the most boring subjects: you need to learn texts by heart and recite them without any real understanding of what you are saying. English seems too difficult, and so you come to terms with the fact that you will never understand it.
Once there was a special guest at my school. A graduate had decided to visit her former teachers and show her husband, an American, the place where she had studied. He came to our classroom, and we were encouraged to speak with him—but we couldn't. The words just wouldn't come; they were stuck in our throats. We remained silent, and so this woman had to translate for us. This is a typical situation in Ukraine, where kids have the knowledge to speak English, but ultimately cannot use it. They are afraid to make mistakes, otherwise how can they get good marks?
Luckily for me, everything changed at my university. During study trips and student exchanges, I couldn't help but speak. The first language barrier was overcome in speaking with foreigners, and the second with native-speakers. Even though my English is much better now, sometimes I still feel uncomfortable when speaking to others.
For me, a young graduate, the knowledge of English is an asset and .... a must, if I want to have a good job. For my relatives this skill is outstanding—they never managed to learn the language in a Soviet school. However, in Ukraine, my case is still the exception. I belong to a minority of people that speak English fluently. The majority of people in Ukraine, unfortunately, do not.
"Darling, you should use your English in a more rewarding way," said my mother last year. For half a year I've worked as a freelance translator, in addition to to my main job. My mother worried it was in vain.
Twenty years earlier, we had started learning English together, but today my mother knows only a couple of phrases and some of the words she had learned with me. She tells me that no time and no desire to learn English; I cannot seem to persuade her, either. She belongs to the generation of post-Soviet people convinced that fluency in English is something they could never achieve. Instead, they've done everything to help their kids learn English.
Soon after this conversation with my mother I joined a project where I could not only use my English, but also take part in truly rewarding work. In Spring 2016, the newly-founded GoCamp sent out a call to schools and foreign volunteers. The idea is very simple: invite a foreigner to work in a Ukrainian school for three weeks during the summer. The conditions for such a project already existed, because one year earlier, the Ministry of Education and Science had made it compulsory for schools to conduct summer language camps. Not every educational institution has enough resources for this, however, so in June 2016 schools all over Ukraine took part in the first GoCamp.
Volunteers who participate in GoCamp come to Ukraine, receive introductory training, and then go to their camp location. There, they work alongside the teachers, and all they have to do is...speak to children in English.
The educational part of the project is the responsibility of the school's teacher, while the volunteer is responsible for communicating with the students. He or she is a mentor, a friend, and an example to follow. The volunteer is a mind-changer, a person who inspires. I wish I could have had such a mentor when I was a young student.
Can children learn a language in just three weeks? No, of course not. But it's enough to break down barriers—both linguistic and cultural. It's enough to make friends, create ties and inspire confidence in kids' minds and souls. This has inspired real changes in foreign language learning in Ukraine.
For the second summer in a row, a team of almost twenty people organized the biggest volunteering project in Ukraine and all of Eastern Europe. GoCamp volunteers were carefully selected by the volunteer coordination and support team, who do their best to make volunteers feel at home. These two sessions of GoCamp involved almost 500 volunteers with completely different backgrounds from all over the world. Their stories are unique, and their talents are used even when they don't expect it.
In most cases, it is an easy task to make volunteers feel at home. Ukrainian hospitality is well-known in Post-Soviet countries. Volunteers live with host families, who provide them with accommodation, meals and logistics while in Ukraine. Perfect conditions for discovering the biggest country in Europe. Some volunteers are convinced they have gained weight towards the end of the project. All that our team can do is prepare them and teach them how to say "Thanks, but I am not hungry anymore!" in Ukrainian.
The biggest impact can be made by the volunteers who go to villages and small cities, because they change the life of the whole community. At the camp, kids are working on projects that have a direct influence on their communities or schools. The volunteer's arrival also means changes in community organization, as people want to make their location better for their foreign guest. These changes in the city last beyond the project itself.
GoCamp is pure inspiration. Volunteers inspire kids, teachers, and communities, and they all inspire us. Such a mutual benefit in action.
"Darling, I have seen you and your colleagues on TV. The journalist told viewers all about GoCamp and the volunteers. Do you really speak with foreigners in English so easily? Unbelievable!" My mother calls me fascinated by the media boom that GoCamp has caused in Ukraine. She tells me that the school where her friend's daughter is studying is involved with the project as well. Her friend's family is going to become a host family for a volunteer next year, and now everyone, from the grandparents to the youngest kids in the family are learning basic English words and phrases. "Otherwise, how would they communicate?" she wonders astonishingly. Most importantly, my mother has now decided to improve her English, as well. Twenty years after we started learning English together, the inspiration is with her again, and I couldn't be happier.
The slogan of GoCamp says: if you want to change the world, inspire a kid. It is very easy to open this entire big world to the little individual. For me, the inspiration was my mother, and for kids in Ukraine, it can be you.

As you were
On a headline level, 2018 has started exactly as 2017 finished. Stocks are up, U.S. short term rates are up—but the dollar has traded heavy—and economic data continue to tell a story of a synchronised upturn in global growth. The bears are furious, or perhaps just confused. Hussman recently published a prepper's guide to a hypervalued market. And value investor extraordinaire—and famed bear—Jeremy Grantham from GMO invokes the "highest-priced markets in US history," but also proclaims that we're now in the "melt-up phase" of the bull market. I am all for holding opposing views at the same time, but markets demand a view and a position. So which is it Mr. Grantham? Long, short, or flat? I am not holding my breath for an answer. I have long since left the extremes behind. Picture a spectrum with Hussman and GMO at one end, and the wet-behind-the-ears trader, who have never experienced a sizeable drawdown in Spoos, at the other end. Hint: You want to be somewhere in between.
Separating signal from noise is an important skill in this game, and markets currently are throwing a number of curve balls at investors. What better way to kick off 2018 than by highlighting the ones that matter.

Over the years, Lauren has made a name for herself in the fashion industry. We all know her as "LC" from Laguna Beach and The Hills. After many years of reality television, Lauren decided to step away from all the drama and cameras to have others see her in a different light.
Today, she has two fashion lines, a blog and several books. Lauren is always up to date with all of the current trends whether it is her discussing it in an article or her own writing. I personally love her clothing line at Kohl's. Lauren's pieces are girly, affordable and comfortable. Maybe one of these days, I can splurge on a piece from Paper Crown!
In the public eye, Lauren is always poised and presenting herself nicely. There is never a negative vibe around her and she is always a down to earth person. Just like her personality we know of, her outfits are always fun, sweet and colorful. Oh and did we mention how her makeup is always spot on?! I would love for her to show us how it is always perfect!

A Complete Guide to Clean Beauty & 3 Tips for How to Transition
I dream of a world where clean and safe beauty is the gold standard. But, for that day to actually arrive, we need to vote with our dollars and support businesses that are pushing the cosmetic industry forward. Skin is our largest organ and our protective barrier from illnesses and disease, so what you put on it matters, just like the food you eat matters. Is beauty really worth the cancer-causing and hormone-disrupting toxic ingredients? Nope. It really isn't. And I betcha, you'll find that these clean beauty alternatives work just as well, if not better.
My Road to Clean Beauty
Many people think yoga was the start of my wellness journey, but in actuality, it began with coconut oil. In 2012, I started using coconut oil on my skin to heal my cystic acne. From there, I was motivated to clean up other areas of my life. I switched to a non-toxic skincare and beauty routine (and wrote about it in this article). I adopted cleaner eating habits. I let go of toxic relationships. I started to love and appreciate my body through the practice of yoga. And alas, my wellness journey began.
Source: Credo Beauty
The Reality of the Conventional Beauty Industry
Since the cosmetics industry is quite unregulated, companies are free to throw around the words natural or green with no government reinforcement or clear definitions. All the while, they are filling their products with toxic chemicals that over time can f*ck with our hormones, irritate our skin, and contribute to infertility and cancer. Not to mention, our planet is suffering (read this).
"The European Union bans 1,328 chemicals from cosmetics that are known or suspected to cause cancer, genetic mutation, reproductive harm or birth defects. In comparison, the United States has only banned or restricted 30 chemicals from cosmetics." - The Campaign for Safe Cosmetics
As consumers, we must exercise our due diligence and read labels. Don't let luxurious branding or a high-dollar product fool you. Just as you would read labels on food products, I recommend you read every new skincare product you purchase moving forward.
The Dirty Dozen
Sulfates - It's the foaming agent and was used as an industrial degreaser. You don't want to strip your skin of all it's moisture anyways.
Phthalates (aka Fragrance) - In almost every product with an artificial scent like shampoos, perfume, moisturizer, and more. May smell like roses, but it's a carcinogen and hormone disruptor.
Parabens - Makeup, body washes, deodorants, shampoos, facial cleansers, and even our food. These type of preservatives keep bacteria and yeast from growing in your foundation, but they are also linked to an increased risk of breast cancer when soaked into your skin.
Formaldehyde - Nail polish, nail polish treatment, body washes, conditioners, shampoos, cleansers, and eyeshadows. At its best, formaldehyde causes allergic reactions. At its worst, this chemical was deemed a human carcinogen by The International Agency for Research on Carcinogens (IARC) linking it to occupational related cancers.
Sunscreen chemicals (benzophenone, PABA, avobenzone, homosalate and octyl methoxycinnamate) - Products with an SPF and in most sunscreens. These products are easily absorbed into the skin, in turn, cause damage to your skin and cancer in your body. Yuck.
Coal-Tar Dyes (Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) or naphthalene) - Shampoo, hair dye, lipsticks, and cosmetic products Derived from chemicals that occur naturally in coal, crude oil, and gasoline, making them undesirable to swallow or absorb in your skin.
BHA and BHT (butylated hydroxyanisole and butylated hydroxytoluene) synthetic antioxidants - Lipsticks and moisturizers. These chemicals mimic estrogen causing infertility, can cause allergic reactions in your kidney, thyroid, and liver, and can be cancer causing.
DEA Compounds (diethanolamine) - Foundations and cleansers to make products creamy and foamy. These babies can f*ck with your hormones and cause fertility issues.
Petrolatum (also known as petroleum or liquid paraffin) - In products that make your hair shiny and/or moisturizers. Deemed a possible carcinogen in Europe.
Triclosan - Antiperspirant deodorant, cleansers, hand sanitizers, laundry detergent, facial tissue, and classified as a pesticide. If it being a pesticide didn't give it away, this chemical can interfere with breast development, thyroid hormones, which regulate metabolism and overall hormonal issues.
Propylene glycol - Moisturizers, sunscreen, makeup products, conditioners, shampoo and hair sprays. It's a skin irritant known to cause hives and allergic reactions.
Toluene (may be listed as: benzene, toluol, phenylmethane, methylbenzene) - Nail polish, nail treatments, and hair color/bleaching products. This stuff is used in paint thinner and can severely affect your respiratory system and cause major damage to an expecting mother and her baby.
My golden rule of thumb: the fewer ingredients, the better. Aim for at least 90-95% natural for items you use on your skin every day. But, don't sweat it if you want that not-so-natural winged eyeliner for the occasional night out. Baby steps.
^Featuring Biossance's Squalane + Vitamin C Rose Oil, Squalane + Mineral SPF 40, and Squalane Peptide Eye Gel
How to Make the Transition
This kind of transition doesn't happen overnight, so remember that before you go and chuck everything you own. We do not support being wasteful regardless of the intention. So, here's a good place to start:
1. Find a clean beauty source you trust.
My go-to is Credo Beauty, which is basically the Ulta or Sephora of clean beauty. The staff is so knowledgeable and will help you find brands you'll love. You can also find clean beauty products at Whole Foods, Target, Madewell, Free People, and more. Download the Think Dirty App to check items before you buy them or familiarize yourself with the ingredients mentioned above.
2. Swap one item at a time.
Swapping out all of your products at once is overwhelming and expensive. Stress isn't good for your health either, so let's minimize that. As you run out, replace it with a cleaner option.
3. Don't let fancy branding fool you.
Cruelty-free or vegan does not mean clean. A luxury price point doesn't mean clean. Don't let branding mislead you. Read the labels, the fewer ingredients the better.
^Featuring Credo Beauty's selection of clean makeup brands that I use regularly.
Brands I Love, Trust, and Support
It's incredibly intimidating to memorize a scientific list of ingredients to avoid. The secret? Find brands you love and trust, and become a loyal customer.
My Current Favorites:
*Please note this list is always growing and changing. As a wellness blogger, I'm often testing out new products to share with you all. Anything I mention below is tried and true products I've used regularly.
Biossance // love the Squalane + Vitamin C Rose Oil, Squalane + Peptid Eye Gel, and the Squalane + Mineral SPF 45 (more about this brand down below). Biossance sets the bar high by banning 2000+ ingredients.
bioClarity // it successfully clears acne without the harsh chemicals and yucky ingredients. It completely cleared my hormonal acne I was experiencing post-birth control pill. So, now I only use it as needed! Get 50% off with the code: OMCITY
Cocokind Skincare // very reasonably priced. I love the matcha stick for moisturizer (I even put it on my eyebrows, which helped them grow!), chlorophyll mask, maca beet lip tint. I'm obsessed with this brand and the badass founder Priscilla. You can find it all at Whole Foods!
100% Pure // I've been using this brand the longest. I recommend absolutely everything from their site. They have literally everything clean beauty you can imagine.
Vapour Organic Beauty // love their foundation, bronzer, highlighter, and deodorant
Kjaer Weiss // great foundation if you need more coverage
100% Pure // as I mentioned, been using this brand's makeup for years - read more about my favorite products here and here. Great lipstick and mascara.
RMS Beauty // try their luminous eye polish in the color solar
Highlight: Biossance, a clean beauty brand raising the bar
I've been using Biossance's Squalane + Vitamin C Rose Oil since July of last year (see blog post about it here), and it's still a staple in my daily ritual. My mom has also been using it since then and loves it!
Our bodies naturally produce a version of squalane, but the amount we make and retain decreases over time. So, Biossance has created a 100% plant-based squalane that is sustainably harvested from sugarcane. It can reduce the signs of aging because it helps replenish the natural moisture that is lost. Biossance has a free sampling program so you can give some of their products a try by clicking here.
If you made it this far...
Thanks for sticking with me! At the end of the day, striving to make cleaner choices with greatly benefit you in the long run. Remember, little by little one walks far, so if you can make just one tiny change you're already making progress.

ADAPs -- which are supported with both state and federal funds -- provide HIV/AIDS-related medications to low-income, uninsured and underinsured HIV-positive individuals. As of January, 15 states have waiting lists or access restrictions for their ADAP programs, according to an "ADAP Watch" released by the National Alliance of State and Territorial AIDS Directors (Kaiser Daily HIV/AIDS Report, 3/22). The approximately $1 billion in FY 2004 grants, which are funded under Title II of the Ryan White CARE Act, include $285 million in basic awards based on the number of individuals living with AIDS in each state and territory and $728 million for ADAPs to purchase antiretroviral drugs, according to the release. The award also includes $7 million for the Minority AIDS Initiative and $10 million for states with "emerging communities" -- defined as metropolitan areas with large numbers of individuals living with AIDS. An additional $21 million in grants will be awarded at a later date for the Supplemental Drug Treatment Program. "Every year, programs funded by the CARE Act help more than 530,000 individuals access life-sustaining care and services," Elizabeth Duke, administrator of HHS' Health Resources and Services Administration, said, adding, "Today's grants will extend the availability of needed medications to even more people living with HIV/AIDS" (HHS release, 4/1).

New Keyboard Commands
Another a new development in soon to come v 2018. Extra keyboard commands under TOOLS – Customise – Keyboard.
It obviously depends on what tools you use a lot and find most useful, but here's one example, Zoom Extends. In previous versions, you were able to assign a key, say Z to zoom out incrementally, but not to extends and as you could zoon out simply by rolling your wheel mouse there was little point. You could click on the Zoom Extends icon at the top of your screen, or there is the little trick of tapping your wheel that normally works.
However in 2018 you can assign a single key to Zoom Extend, I tried it with Z and it worked a treat. Z did have a different function by default, but not one that I ever used.
Also good to know that the Default button puts them all back to what they were doing before you started mucking about with them.
