App installation has never been simpler
A normal installation of a web app could take from fifteen minutes to one hour. With our Free Web Apps, your new app will be installed online in the blink of an eye. What's more, we offer you custom–made skins for various well–known apps. In this way, you can publish your application–based site to the Internet with its own unique design in less than five minutes!
Effortless App Setup
Installing a web app has always been a challenging initiative – you have to find the most recent version, to upload it to the web server, to follow an intricate installation process, to create databases, to specify user rights, to pray that your server has got all required modules, and so on. As you can plainly see, this process is rather time–swallowing and complex. This is why, we've developed our easy–to–use Free Web Apps.
With our Free Web Apps, you will never have to download anything. We've got the latest stable editions of the applications, so all you need to do is press the "Install" button. Moreover, no database setup is required – we'll do that automatically for you. And you will not need to be worried about server compatibility issues either – all the web applications that we offer are one hundred percent compatible with our cloud hosting platform.
Actually, with our Free Web Apps, all you need to do to install a web app is type in your admin username and password. We'll deal with everything else instead of you.
More Than 40 Software Applications Are On Hand
We, at Clarafaie Solutions, are keeping track of the popular Internet trends and of which web apps are currently popular. We cautiously select the ones that are of real worth and that are likely to remain in use for at least a few years. This is the reason why, our selection of 40+ web applications includes only apps that people have been using and continue to use.
At Clarafaie Solutions , we offer well–known web apps such as Joomla™ and Wordpress along with some extremely useful apps like Gallery – an easy–to–use image gallery app; OpenRealty® – an application that will allow you to kickstart and administer a real estate site without effort; OpenCart and PrestaShop – very popular and useful shopping cart applications, which can improve your e–store's reputation, etc.
PHP Framework Installer
The Framework Installer was created with developers in mind and offers an intuitive interface, which is similar to that of the Free Web Apps. The installation procedure is rather easy – you can have your PHP framework configured and ready to use with only several clicks.
Presently, Clarafaie Solutions's Framework Installer includes these particular frameworks: Akelos, CakePHP, CodeIgniter, PHPDevShell, Prado, Zend and Zoop.
Zero Cost Themes
With our Free Web Apps, you will also get over one hundred zero cost themes for Moodle, Mambo, Joomla™, WordPress and 4images. Simply choose a theme for your application at the moment of the installation and your website will be published to the Internet with a custom layout instead of the app's default website theme.
All our charge–free website themes are 100 percent customizable. You will be able to customize them any way you like once you have them installed on your site.

Integration of Russia's and China's Eurasian initiatives will reshape the entire Eurasian space, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Igor Morgulov said on Friday at the Eastern Economic Forum in Russia's Far Eastern city of Vladivostok.
"The projects we are speaking about today, namely the project targeting integration of the Eurasian Economic Union and the Silk Road Economic Belt, are seen as a large-scale, giant, long-term strategic task that, I am sure, will reshape the entire Eurasian space when implemented," he said.
Moreover, India and Iran "are bound to join this common economic space this or that way in the long run," he noted.
"Practical measures have been kicked off to implement the integration tasks set by the leaders of Russia and China," Morgulov said, adding that an ad hoc bilateral working group involving representatives from all Russian and Chinese agencies concerned had been set up. "It is a comprehensive approach. Later on, the group will be split up to maintain dialogues in separate areas," the Russian diplomat noted.
"In term of concept, we have a common view on how to tackle the integration programme," he said. "The matter is that neither we nor the Chinese keep to the "purely accountancy" approach. We don't mean only transit corridors."
The First Eastern Economic Forum is underway in Russia's Far Eastern city of Vladivostok. It will finish its work on September 5. The forum will feature presentation of regional investment possibilities and projects.

What to expect after listing mineral rights
Many mineral owners are curious about what to expect after listing mineral rights for sale. Our goal is to make the process of selling mineral rights extremely transparent. Below is what to expect after listing mineral rights for sale at US Mineral Exchange:
1. Create Listing – One of our listing advisers will review your listing to ensure it's accurate and complete. If any information or documentation is missing, we will contact you. Once the review is complete we will activate your listing.
2. Listing Activation – Once you property has been fully activated it will be viewed by thousands of buyers around the country. We hand select listings each week to be included in our weekly email to buyers. By creating a single listing, your property will get exposure to thousands of qualified buyers from all over the country.
3. Buyer Inquiry/Offer – When a buyer is interested in your property, they will submit an inquiry form on your listing. One of our listing advisers will contact you to discuss the inquiry or offer. We'll help you evaluate each inquiry and determine the best way to respond. If an offer is presented, we will help you understand the positives and negatives of the offer and negotiate the best possible price on your behalf.
4. Purchase and Sale Agreement – Once a tentative offer has been agreed upon by both you and the buyer, the buyer will put together a purchase and sale agreement (PSA). This PSA gives the buyer time to complete their due diligence which normally takes around 30 days. The buyer will run title during this time and the buyer is 100% responsible for the cost of running title.
5. Deed Signature – Once the due diligence period is complete, the buyer will provide a deed that you will sign. The deed is the official document that will convey the interest from the seller to the buyer.
6. Escrow – In most cases the original deed will be sent to US Mineral Exchange directly. We will hold onto the deed until the buyer funds the US Mineral Exchange escrow account with the funds necessary to complete the transaction. Once US Mineral Exchange is in receipt of the original deed and the funds, we will send the deed and funds to the respective parties. This process ensures that neither the seller nor the buyer is at risk of not being paid or not receiving the original deed.
How Long the Process Takes
The two main steps in the process are finding a buyer and completing due diligence. The timing varies for each property but you can expect the following:
Locating a Mineral Rights Buyer
Finding the right buyer can take just a few days or it could takes a few weeks. Certain properties that are in high demand will have a lot of initial interest from mineral rights buyers. These properties may get many offers within days. This is common when a mineral owner sells oil and gas royalties.
Non-Producing properties can take time to generate interest because buyers spend more time researching the property up front. Similar to selling a home, a buyer needs to research the area and make sure they are comfortable moving forward before presenting an offer. Mineral owners who are willing to list the property for a few weeks and give buyers time to complete their up front due diligence receive significantly more offers.
Due Diligence
The amount of time given to a buyer for due diligence is typically 30 days after the Purchase and Sale Agreement is signed. In some places like Texas and Oklahoma due diligence can be completed in as little as 10 days. In other places such as West Virginia it might take 90 days to close a transaction due to complex title requirements in that area. Before signing anything you will know exactly how long this due diligence period will take. We push for the shortest possible due diligence period while giving the buyer an appropriate amount of time.
Timing Expectations
As a mineral owner it's important to realize that selling mineral rights is not an overnight process. Locating the right buyer who can pay you maximum value can take a little time. In addition, the buyer needs time to run title during due diligence. Selling mineral rights is comparable to selling a home. There are simply things that take time to complete before the process is done.
Our goal is make sure the process is taking an appropriate amount of time. If a buyer is taking too long or asking for an unnecessary amount of time we will bring that to your attention and work with the buyer to speed the process up where possible.
Contact US Mineral Exchange:
If you have questions about your mineral rights, we're here to help! We speak with mineral owners every day and we look forward to hearing from you. Please don't hesitate to fill out the form below with any questions and our friendly team will respond quickly.
Free Consultation
Common Questions
Many mineral owners make the mistake of finding a couple buyers and requesting a quote. They then accept an offer far below market value because the buyers they found weren't the ones willing to pay the highest price. When you list at US Mineral Exchange, it allows all the buyers to come to you which means more cash in your pocket. We frequently speak with mineral owners who have an offer in hand but want to know if it's fair. After listing at US Mineral Exchange, they get a higher offer than the one they had almost every time.

Mr Acosta, who has been one of the staunchest press corps critics of the White House's decision to bar cameras from the press briefings, pushed back in a tense exchange between the two.
The White House's continued refusal to answer reporters' questions on camera had journalists steamed on Monday at an off-camera briefing where only audio was allowed and was barred from broadcast until the conclusion of the session.
"There's no camera on Jim", Spicer said.
Spicer said "some days we'll have them" on camera, some days not.
White House press secretary Sean Spicer during a briefing on Monday.
"It's a legitimate question, Sean".
Spicer replied that he wanted to let the "president's voice carry the day", without competition from the briefings, and that "some days we'll have [televised briefings], some days we won't".
Appearing on CNN with host Ana Cabrera after the briefing, Acosta said the White House hasn't taken a question from CNN for several weeks, calling the off-camera briefings an "erosion" of traditions in Washington.
Acosta interrupted again: "Why aren't the cameras on, Sean?" "My sense is that we are going to have to engage in a sustained, vocal protest of these restrictions so this does not become the new normal", he said. He - and deputy press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders - tend to be extremely terse when answering questions and, when asked about President Trump's view on a particular issue, often insist they simply haven't asked the president.
Many media pundits and White House reporters themselves slammed the White House communications department for avoiding the daily televised press briefings, which yielded illuminating and occasionally embarrassing information about President Donald Trump and his administration.
White House press secretary Sean Spicer on Sunday dismissed criticism of the Trump administration's increasing lack of on-camera press briefings.
"This is a new thing that this White House is doing to us here at CNN and to a couple of other news outlets as well". "We are not satisfied with the current state of play, and we will work hard to change it". Television networks were allowed to record audio, but not air it live. Trump was not scheduled to take questions during the garden appearance with Modi.

Hi there,
I seem to have a tiny hand in my timeline (has replaced the cursor) and none of the buttons/tools on screen work?? Even shortcuts are messed up? Does anyone know why this has happened and how I can get back to the original arrow cursor with normal commands! I think I must have accidently knocked a key - it just came on again and then went as I pressed other keys in a rush. I had to delete my previous project however to get rid of it! Some help here would be much appreciated! Not really in to this deleting project lark! Thanks!
Are you in segment mode (red or yellow arrow at bottom of timeline selected)? if not, maybe just selecting the Source/Record toolset will get you back to where you need to be. That's what I'd try first.
good luck,Carl

Carl Amoscato | Freelance Film & Video Editor | London, UK
Yeah tried that but no luck:(
Everytime I click on a button/tool it errors: 'that button can't be changed'.
Any other ideas by any chance?
I suspect you have the Command Palette open and are trying to use that to select tools and edit. The Command Palette allows you to assign buttons and is not for normal operation.
You are totally awesome!! Thanks!

Thanks Neil J sorted me as well - so simple but easy to miss
Nine year old Post and it helped me tonight! The hand pointer got me but I didn't realize the Command Palette was causing it. Thanks!
Helped me too - In 20 years of Avid editing I always thought this was an occasional dumb glitch that would go away at some point after a restart!

The papers are open to research according to the regulations of the Sophia Smith Collection.
The copyright owner of this collection is unknown, though it is likely that the unpublished writings of Carrie Chapman Catt are in public domain. The Library of Congress, which holds the bulk of the Catt Papers states that "copyright in the unpublished writings of Carrie Chapman Catt in these and in other collections of papers in the custody of the Library of Congress has been dedicated to the public." Copyright to works by others in this collection may be owned by their heirs or assigns. It is the responsibility of the researcher to identify and satisfy the holders of all copyrights.
Carrie Lane Chapman Catt was born on January 9, 1859 in Ripon, Wisconsin, the second of three children of Lucius Lane and Maria Clinton. When Carrie was seven years old the family moved to Charles City, Iowa, where she spent the rest of her childhood. She taught at a country school until she saved enough money to pay for college, and entered Iowa State College in 1877. In 1880, following her graduation, she studied law before becoming principal of the high school in Mason City, Iowa. She later became the first female superintendent of the district.
In 1885, Catt married Leo Chapman, editor-owner of the Mason City Republican, which she helped him manage. Following his death in 1886, she was employed in the newspaper business in San Francisco, where she became increasingly aware of the inequalities facing women in the business and industrial arenas. Leaving San Francisco less than a year later, she returned to Iowa where she began lecturing on the status of women in the United States. Catt was convinced that women's inequality was based on their lack of political power, and she focused her efforts on women's suffrage. She joined the Iowa Woman Suffrage Association and was elected State Organizer in 1887. In 1890 she was invited to address the convention of the National American Woman Suffrage Association (NAWSA) in Washington, D.C., where she met important suffrage activists, among them Susan B. Anthony, Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Julia Ward Howe. Following the convention, she married George W. Catt, a successful hydraulic engineer. When Susan B. Anthony retired as president of NAWSA in 1900, she named Catt her successor. Catt used her position to forge new alliances with women across the world, calling an international suffrage conference in 1902. The conference was attended by representatives from nine countries and led to the founding of the International Woman Suffrage Alliance. By the time Catt retired as president of NAWSA twenty-one years later, forty countries had branches of the International Woman Suffrage Alliance and twenty of these had enfranchised women fully.
After 1904, when she was forced to step down from the NAWSA presidency because of her husband's poor health, Catt turned her attention to achieving suffrage in New York State, which she felt was critical to passage of a federal suffrage amendment. Due largely to her efforts, which included consolidating disparate city groups into the Woman Suffrage Party (1910), and organizing and chairing the Empire State Campaign (1913-14), in 1917 the New York State Legislature finally passed a referendum granting women the right to vote.
From this point, the struggle for national women's suffrage became more intense and Catt was an increasingly charismatic symbol of the movement. During World War One she was asked to take on the presidency of NAWSA once again, in part to facilitate keeping the idea of women's suffrage in the forefront of American politics. As a member of the Woman's Division of the Council for National Defense, she was able to push Congress to submit the Nineteenth Amendment in June of 1919, and on August 26, 1920, the federal amendment granting women's suffrage was signed into law. After suffrage was won, Catt founded the National League of Women Voters to help newly-enfranchised women navigate the election process.
Throughout the rest of her life, Catt worked tirelessly for pacifism, disarmament, and the peaceful settlement of international disputes, most notably by attempting to create a common international program of peace. In 1925, she invited international women's organizations to work together to form a disarmament program at the First Conference on the Cause and Cure of War in Washington, D.C. At this conference, a permanent Committee on the Cause and Cure of War was formed, comprised of the chief officers of the member organizations. Catt served as chairman until 1933, when she retired. The committee specialized in "marathon round tables" for the study of international conflicts.
In addition to being a prolific writer of editorials, speeches and pamphlets on the women's movement, she collaborated with Nettie Rogers Shuler in writing Woman Suffrage and Politics (1923) and on her own wrote a book, Why Wars Must Cease (1935).
Catt was given honorary doctorates from the University of Wyoming, Iowa State College, Smith College, and Moravian College for Women. In 1936, during her fiftieth anniversary celebration as a suffragist and pacifist, she was escorted to the White House by the presidents of several national women's organizations where President and Mrs. Roosevelt received her.
In 1940, Catt organized the last event of her career, the Woman's Centennial Conference in New York, which celebrated the first one hundred years of the feminist movement in the United States. Carrie Chapman Catt died at home in New Rochelle, New York on March 9, 1947 at age 88.
The Carrie Chapman Catt Papers date from 1880 to 1958 and consist of 1.75 linear feet of material relating primarily to her public life. Types of material include correspondence, speeches, pamphlets, photographs, reports, journal and newspaper articles, and political cartoons. The bulk of the papers surround Catt's work as president of both the National American Woman Suffrage Association and the International Woman Suffrage Alliance. There is also a significant amount of material pertaining to her peace activities, including the National Committee on the Cause and Cure of War. Major topics include federal- and state-level suffrage for women, the peaceful settlement of international disputes, and building an international network promoting women's equality. The collection is compelling as a record of the lengthy struggle for women's suffrage in the United States, and the powerful network of women's organizations that sprang out of that struggle. Catt published many short pamphlets describing her vision of feminism and women's suffrage that may be of particular interest to scholars. The papers also contain a rich collection of photographs, including many of the Women's Land Army, created in Great Britain during World War II to aid in the war effort. Most women lived at home and were transported each day to farms, where they hoed, weeded, thinned, and harvested crops of all kinds; many supervised youth platoons, especially teachers out of school for the summer. A few worked year round, especially on poultry and dairy farms, while others worked in canneries or were leaders for recruiting other women.
This collection is organized into four series:

In addition, there is correspondence with state senators and representatives regarding support for a federal amendment granting women's suffrage; with President Woodrow Wilson; with colleagues within the National American Woman Suffrage Association; and regarding her peace activism. This series offers insight into the skilled political organization that was required, and achieved in large measure by Catt, in order for the women's suffrage movement to be successful.
.5 linear feet
Catt's writings are extensive and include pamphlets, articles, brochures and speeches written on behalf of the National American Woman Suffrage Movement, the National League of Women Voters, the International Alliance of Women for Suffrage and Equal Citizenship, and the National Committee on the Cause and Cure of War. Also included are speeches promoting the adoption of a federal women's suffrage amendment; memoranda regarding charges that Catt had "communist sympathies"; and the Carrie Chapman Catt Citizenship Course, a year-long segment appearing in The Woman Citizen, designed to educate women voters.
.5 linear feet
These files are comprised of a collection of photographs documenting the Women's Land Army, a collection of suffrage cartoons, and miscellaneous writings and reports on subjects and activities pertaining to women's suffrage. The photographs are arranged in two folders with copies appearing first and originals in the second folder. Similarly, the cartoons are arranged in five folders; dated copies appear first, followed by dated originals. Undated copies are arranged in alphabetical order by title or by first word of text.

Star Trek *Spoilers*
2 comments:
- AnonymousMay 21, 2009 at 4:45 AM
Glad to see you reviewing this Daniel. I do miss your insights into such things.ReplyDelete
My only real response is to this...
"I don't get why they couldn't have played in the exsisting universe accept that they were to lazy to research the Trek lore."
There is simply too much of it. The reason Star Trek shows (Enterprise for example) have been so poorly recieved is that there is not any new material and there is TOO much lore to pull from. It's very hard for writers to be fresh and unique when they are looking at 'cannon' lore from... the original series, TNG, Enterprise, Voyager, Deep Space Nine AND the off shoots of books etc that have been released...each set in a different time period. They don't want to offend the fans by fucking up the cannon, but at the same time their hands are tied by it. With the alternate universe they've set up (yes they are saving their own asses) it allows for an entire new Star Trek cannon to be created (with appropriate nods to the old cannon and characters).
JJ Abrams was not a 'trekkie' when he signed on to the project, but I feel he is steering the franchise in the correct direction. The casting for the most part is spot on. The characters have hints of their original counterparts but at the same time, each young actor brings their own performance to the piece. Yes, you are now in an alternate universe and yes, you now have free reign to do whatever the heck you want (and potential fuck it up hardcore) but I'm willing to take the leap as long as Abrams is at the helm. I swear I've read an interview where Abrams said as much.
As nice as it would be to stick with the cannon lore. There is just too much of it to make a decent story that would attract new audiences. New audiences are a must, staying true to the characters/intent of the original show is what should (in theory) draw in the Trekkies.
That's not me saying the story was flawless, there were lots of things that bugged me. ;)
I agree Nero was rather lack luster for a villian. We should be feeling pity for him for losing his wife, or scandalized because he kills Kirk's father but I felt nothing. Honestly I wanted to get back to the Enterprise and it's young/flashy new crew. The villian needs to be as engaging as the hero (Heath Ledger's Joker proves this to be true) if not more so.
AAAAND... my final thought since I'm rambling, is that Nero doesn't go back in time to save his planet because doing so will change nothing. His future (his wife/child) is gone and there is nothing he can do to change it. He simply wants everyone to feel the suffering he is feeling. Even if he were to warn the Romulans, there is no guarantee that the younger Nero would end up with the same woman as a wife...that the planet would be saved. Either way, he can't go back in time from where he came from should he fix everything. He's lost everything, he doesn't care about saving his planet, he's only motivation is revenge. It's a big confusing mess (shockingly enough most time travel plots are, though this one was explained half way decently). As nice as it would be for him to just save the Romulans and give them warning, it wouldn't save his wife. By coming through the black hole, he altered time and as such... created a new future for everyone (his 'younger' self/family included).

and I forgot :3
I totally agree that Hope would have been pissy at Kirk for getting a captain when all he did was break rules and do whatever the heck he wanted.
Fly by the seat of your pants and get rewarded? Gee I wish the real world worked like that.

Reported by Bill Lohny
Smart cars: they're compact, fuel efficient and all too easy to destroy. It seems that not even artificially intelligent drivers can save these tiny vehicles after a Google Smart Car™ swerved off a residential road and into a stop sign earlier today. Google's computer-controlled car was totaled Eye-witnesses say the durable stop sign suffered no damage.
Google experts immediately examined the Smart Car's black box in an effort to determine what went wrong, and discovered that the car was equipped with Google Glass. Among the services Glass provides is adjusting its ads based on the user's viewing history. Unfortunately, it was this consumer-based ad that led to the car's demise.
Black box analysis revealed that, just moments before the car swerved, Google Glass displayed an ad for a male enhancement pill. It is believed that the car's onboard Artificial Intelligence (AI), distracted by the ad, ran off the road.
Further analysis revealed that immediately after the crash, Google Glass helpfully displayed an ad for a local auto mechanic.
Google employee Luke Wahrm was remotely monitoring the AI on the car in question at the time of the accident. Wahrm said, "Honestly, I just trusted the AI. I saw it swerve, but I figured the programming knew what it was doing." He paused. "Then again, one time it went through a car wash without any input from me, so maybe I should have taken that as a hint that it had a mind of its own."
Google issued a statement after the incident, repeating over and over, "We are really, really sorry that this happened."
They also announced the implementation of new precautions to ensure that AI-controlled cars would not repeat this mistake. They stated that "weighing the variables so that more value is put on the road instead of the ads" and "increasing the cars' comfort with masculinity to decrease obsession with male enhancement" will help to decrease the possibility of crashing.
When asked if they would consider abandoning the advertising strategy responsible for this incident in favor of something less intrusive, a spokesman for Google stated, "We're committed to giving Google Glass users the most immersive experience possible. The occasional crashed vehicle is simply a blip on the radar screen, one that will soon be obliterated."
The California Highway Patrol advised motorists to use extra caution when on the roads, and to avoid driving next to a Smart Car if at all possible.

Amazing zero-waste alternative to bottled shampoo!
Take a shampoo bar with you instead of a regular plastic bottle. They last for months and as they are so small so they save you so much money and space, and you don't have to worry about replacing it for long time! Perfect to take with you on your travels too!
Approximate weight: 58gr
Wet your hair. Stroke the solid shampoo down it a few times to lather it up, or rub the bar between your hands to create a lather. Gently massage it into the scalp and hair, as you would with a liquid shampoo. Rinse out and condition if your hair would like a little extra loving. Leave the bar out to air dry, ready for its next use.
INGREDIENTS: Sodium Coco-Sulfate, Cetearyl Alcohol, Cocamidopropyl Betaine, Glyceryl Stearate, Sodium Chloride, Sodium Lauryl Sulfoacetate, Theobroma Cacao Seed Butter, Aqua, Panthenol, Mentha Arvensis Leaf Oil, Melaleuca Alternifolia Leaf Oil, Distearoylethyl Dimonium Chloride, PEG-200 Hydrogenated Glyceryl Palmate, Glycerin, PEG-7 Glyceryl Cocoate, Fatty Alcohol, Ethoxylate, Mel Extract, Spirulina Platensis Extract, Citric Acid, Sodium Benzoate, Potassium, Sorbate, Limonene, CI 19140, CI 42051.

Excessive Sentencing
Bucking the Trend
Despite the trend in public opinion away from excessive sentencing, Judge Forrest gave Ross the maximum short of the death penalty for all non-violent charges. This kind of unreasonable sentence, especially for a non-violent, first-time offender, is in opposition to many in Congress; the pope; the Sentencing Reform Act; and an ever- increasing number of organizations, U.S. citizens and people worldwide. It is responsible for the dramatic spike in mass incarceration in this country and the sharp increase in the number of non-violent people like Ross serving excessive time.
No second chances
According to a study by the Sentencing Project, until the 1990's life-sentenced prisoners were released after a decade if they demonstrated "good behavior."[1] Now a life sentence literally means life in prison, or as the pope calls it, "a death sentence in disguise."[2] The number of US inmates serving life keeps hitting new records.[3] As of 1987, the possibility of parole in the federal system was eliminated.[4] There is no second chance, opportunity to make restitution, or any hope at all.
It is sentences like the one given Ross by Judge Forrest that causes the U.S. to lead the world with the highest prison population.[5] And it is sentences like this that sets precedent for this horror to continue.

About Daniel
Hair artist Daniel Villano was artistic as a child and loved art in all its forms: painting, sculpture, fashion, film, hair-styling. Fascinated by the power of hair artistry's transformative qualities, he began his career at a very young age with Loreal Professionnel quickly emerging into a National Artist. During this time, he played a pivotal role in the regional launch of a Platinum, a blockbuster new product line.
Soon after, Daniel was named Creative Director of Pagani in Chicago. His responsibilities included managing, motivating and training the staff artists. Later, encouraged by his industry peers, Daniel moved to the West Coast where he worked on some of the most prestigious photo-shoots, fashion shows, and celebrities in Los Angeles.
While in LA, Daniel began an apprenticeship with French hair guru, Fredrick Fekkai. Under his tutelage, Daniel honed his technical skills and eventually traveled to New York City. Today, he is a celebrated colorist and considered one of the finest experts in hair painting on the east coast.
A favorite among industry photographers, his work has appeared in some of the nation's biggest fashion publications such as Vogue, Elle and Instyle. He has also been featured in the New York Times and on Regis and Kelly. Most recently, he was honored with working with the first lady, Michelle Obama, when she transformed her look to earmark her birthday.

A Late Mother's Day/
I know it's loooooooong gone but we were away. Bare with me, I still have to post a couple pics. What kind of mother or daughter or daughter in law would I be if I let it go unannounced here.
I always want to make sure and say Happy Mother's Day and celebrate so big because there were too many that passed me by where I thought I would never be a mommy. I want to celebrate the mothers in my life that set such a positive example for me to follow and support me unconditionally in this crazy life that is ours. Without them therapy bills would be at an all time high, stress would be above what is considered the "healthy/motivating" limit and my own mothering to my girls would certainly suffer. I do not take for granted the love and support that comes my way every single day by all the moms in my life, even if it's a friend talking another friend off the ledge (no need to say who's the "talker" and whose the "ledge jumper" - it doesn't help or hurt the story). Much love to you all!
I also always want to make sure to send love to those of you who have an empty space in your soul and are waiting (maybe some of you for a long time) for your little babe to join you. I think of you all often. I put positive energy and vibes into the universe for you and I have complete faith that everything will work out just as it is supposed to for you. We are all called in this life, we are all given exactly what we need and fulfillment will be provided to each and every one of us. I send you peace and love on Mother's Day every single year.
To my little loves…I thank the good Lord above for you every single day (even when you are the naughtiest). I love you more than anything can love anything in the world. You make me crazy and content all at the same time. You allow me to try my hat and experiment at this thing called "mothering" and although I think you are quite brave for choosing me, I am honored to be given the chance to learn how to raise you. You are by far the best thing I've ever done, you are my favorite and most rewarding job. And if you turn out like failures I can always blame your father (so there's that - #noonewouldbelieveme) Most important YOU ARE MINE!!! NO TRADSIES!!!!
We made sure to celebrate this special lady before we left. She deserves to be pampered for all she does for us. She is one lady that truly sees with her heart and not her eyes. Watching her love her 5 girls you can tell nothing in this world makes her more proud or is more beautiful than them in that moment.
A Mother's Day that will forever be remembered with my mama and my babies in a very special place.
And a very Happy Birthday to dear Mim. Sorry we missed it but we found a way to celebrate your life anyway even if it was a little late. Clearly my kid can't be trusted with cake...

Most men and women do not think about finding a law firm right up until they are in desperate need. The lawful problem might possibly be personal, like family law, for a breakup or if you are looking for a bankrupcy or trust law firm. It may be a felony case you want to be defended on. Firms need to have attorneys as well, whether they are being sued for discrimination, sexual harassment, or potentially unjust business strategies. Tax lawyers are also useful when engaging with government challenges. Just like doctors, lawyers have specialties. A big, full service law firm has numerous legal professionals with numerous areas of experience, so based on your legal issue, you can immediately hold on to the top lawyer or attorney to match your current need without having to begin your search each time you need legal support.It is ideal to find a lawyer or attorney you can trust. You want one with a good record, who istruthful, effective, and wins cases. You really want to have assurance that they will stand for you properly and charge you reasonably for their products and services. Sometimes a reference from a pal or business associate can be handy, even so you should hold your options open and examine all the firms available, due to the fact when you want legal help, you need it instantly and you want the very best you can manage to pay for. Thank you for browsing for a attorney at law with us. Your time is valuable, and Action Pages, at Actionyp.com, is happy to provide specific search variables to satisfy your needs. We consistently make an effort to focus on the most popular phrases so you can promptly find anything at all you are looking for.

This year marks the 20th anniversary of Eureka Street. To celebrate the anniversary, the journal presented a series of six video conversations with prominent contributors earlier in the year. This interview is the first in a second series to continue the celebration.
It's fitting that the interviewee is an outspoken advocate for human rights and social justice, as, right from the start, these have been a prominent strands in the issues covered by Eureka Street. At the forefront has been the plight of refugees and asylum seekers, along with a raft of other issues, like Australia's involvement in developing countries, and in wars and conflicts around the globe.
Tony Kevin has written with verve and insight on all these topics. He began writing after retiring from a lengthy and distinguished career as a senior public servant and in the diplomatic corps. He worked for 30 years in the Prime Minister's Department and in the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade, and served as Australia's ambassador to Poland (1991–94) and Cambodia (1994–97).
Kevin's life and career was strongly influenced by his parents. His Australian Irish-Catholic father, also a diplomat, met Kevin's mother in London before the outbreak of the Second World War. She was a Jewish refugee from Vienna, who'd escaped from Austria with her family at the time of the Anschluss, the annexation of Austria by Nazi Germany in March 1938.
Her family were secular Jews, and so Kevin grew up in Sydney in what he calls a 'fairly secular household'. In primary school he attended the Protestant Cranbrook School in Sydney's eastern suburbs, but every Saturday his father sent him to the Jesuits at Campion Hall for instruction in the Catholic faith. In high school he boarded at the Jesuits' St Ignatius College, Riverview.
Kevin studied engineering, and later economics and politics, at Trinity College, Dublin. Following this he began his long career in the Australian public service. In 1999 he married his wife Sina, a Cambodian woman he had met when he was ambassador there.
Since retirement he has been a prolific writer for a swag of magazines and newspapers. He's led debate on a range of issues; in one article written for the Canberra Times in March 2002, he coined the name SIEV-X for the asylum seeker vessel that sank the previous October, drowning all but 44 of its 397 passengers.
Kevin has written three books: A Certain Maritime Incident: the sinking of the SIEV-X; Walking the Camino: A Modern Pilgrimage to Santiago; and his latest, Crunch Time: Using and Abusing Keynes to Fight the Twin Crises of our Era, about the need to address anthropogenic climate change.

Unlike many media organisations, Eureka Street doesn't use paywalls. We believe in making the work of our writers as free and accessible as possible.

NEW YORK CITY—New York REIT has completed the dispositions of its Manhattan retail assets with the $31.5 million sale of four Bleecker Street properties to Toronto-based Brookfield Property Partners, and a family office acquiring 416 Washington St. for $11.2 million. Both transactions closed on April 19.
With the recently sold properties, 350 Bleecker St. is on the corner of W. 10th Street. It includes 4,400 square feet for retail, and an 8,220 square-foot parking garage. Fashion retailer Sarah Pacini currently leases space in the building.
367-369 Bleecker St. is a 4,726-square-foot retail condominium at the corner of Charles Street. The luxury clothing company Burberry had signed a 10-year lease for this space in 2010 but has closed its store at this location.
382-384 Bleecker St. is a 2,905-square-foot, multi-tenanted retail condominium on the corner of Perry Street. Michael Kors, Havaianas and APC have leases in the building. But the Michael Kors store has closed.
387 Bleecker St., a 480 square-foot retail condominium, having an additional 312 square feet of basement storage, is currently vacant. It is at the ground floor of a luxury residential duplex.
"Bleecker Street has had for a very long time tremendous foot traffic and lots of tourist attractions. Brookfield approached us. They will be using this as an incubator for many retail companies that might be looking for other locations," Jeff Fishman, RKF vice chairman, who led the team in the New York REIT Manhattan retail portfolio sales, tells GlobeSt.com.
"There will be action. There will be people on the streets. There will be stores open. I think it will be a shot in the arm for Bleecker Street. An institutional owner like Brookfield will be able to merchandise the street appropriately," says Fishman.
Fishman notes that, according to Brookfield, the rents are $200 and $325 per square foot for the Bleecker Street retail vacancies. New retailers would be a good fit with the neighborhood he adds, saying he did not anticipate an influx of, for example, Subway sandwich shops.
"On Bleecker Street, we have a prime opportunity to help repopulate one of New York City's most distinct retail corridors with new, innovative brands," says Michael Goldban, head of retail leasing, Brookfield Properties. "The architecture, energy and authenticity of Bleecker Street and the West Village make for a special and unique destination, and we are committed to embracing and capitalizing on those attributes."
With 416 Washington St., the retail tenants include AVO Construction and Yoga Via. There is a 3,600 square-foot availability where John Allan's Premier Men's Grooming Club recently vacated. The family office also purchased the approximately 15,055 square-foot underground parking garage which is zoned for 90 vehicles.
Fishman points to a tremendous amount of activity in the Tribeca area. However, it is not considered a high retail area but more of a neighborhood.
Speaking of neighbors—in the residential component, the River Lofts condominium has two building addresses of 92 Laight St. and 416 Washington St. Curbed magazine reported in 2016 Gwyneth Paltrow and ex-husband Chris Martin had listed their apartment in the condo complex for sale. In 2005, it reported that Meryl Streep had purchased a penthouse in the Laight Street building.
New York REIT's Manhattan retail portfolio comprised seven properties totaling approximately 90,000 square feet. In addition to last week's sales, in January HUBB NYC purchased the retail condominium unit and parking garage at 350 W. 42 St. for $25.1 million. That same month, RFR Realty purchased eight retail condominium units at 122 Greenwich Ave., also known as One Jackson Square, for $31 million. RFR, with Hines, was the original developer of the building.
In completing the sales, Fishman says, "The biggest challenge was these were being done in a time when there were an increasing number of retail vacancies throughout Manhattan, with many retail filings of bankruptcy." Plus, the environment now is one of rising interest rates.
Although the sales are part of the REIT's liquidation and dissolution plan, "This was still Manhattan real estate and the market will dictate what the properties are worth," says Fishman. "It does not mean there were bargains to be had."
In addition to Fishman, RKF VP Brian Segall, and associates Andrew Jacobs and George Martinecz represented New York REIT in the portfolio sales.

Due Uve is made from the combination of two grape varieties, chosen and put together to bring out the best in each other. The body and elegance of the Pinot Grigio, combined with the typical overtones of Sauvignon Blanc, make for a really original creation with great character and personality.
This wine comes from Venezia Giulia, which includes the provinces of Gorizia, Pordenone, Trieste and Udine.
The harvest is done at the beginning of September. Fermentation takes place off the skins in steel tanks at a temperature of 14° to 16° C. Ageing is done in stainless steel containers, followed by bottle maturation.
A straw-yellow colour. The typical aromas of the Sauvignon are tangy on the nose; sage, ripe peach, elderflower and green pepper. The Pinot Grigio dominates on the palate, with good balance between tanginess and crisp acidity. A lingering aftertaste.
This is perfect as an aperitif, it goes well with salads, delicate-flavoured pasta dishes and white meat.

With a water content of .03% to .05%, it is the thickest, purest, un-diluted VG on the market and has the consistency of cold honey or molasses. Simply put, thick VG makes thick clouds; water makes steam.

Nothing expresses us more than our home. Some of us know what we love & how to put it all together to create the perfect room. Others of us find choosing colors, furniture, accessories and personal touches challenging. I like to start every room with an inspiration....it might be a theme, Hollywood Media Room or maybe just an idea of its purpose, books/homework room, play room, etc. No matter the starting place, your rooms have the potential of being the perfect environment for you & your family. Let's create together!
Revitalize your a room or your entire home by re designing the space! For $175 we will spend 2 hours discussing your lifestyle, budget, color & decor preferences and vision for the space. Together we will write a Plan with paint colors and decorating suggestions for you to refer to. The plan will include many of the following: organizing ideas, paint colors, kitchen & bathroom updating, flooring, lighting, furniture placement. Measurements & Photos will be taken for reference.
Staging PDX provides added services -
* Product Selection & Shopping
* Contractor Sourcing & Scheduling

"Tanya worked with us during a big remodel of our home, including the living room, master bedroom, home office, entryway and family room. She was very helpful in selecting paint colors that would go well with the light we have, bringing in samples to see how the paint looked in each area. She also worked with the contractor, giving advice on placement of lighting and room arrangements. Since we also purchased some new furniture to put in our new rooms, she worked with us to select a style that we liked, even meeting us at stores to make just the right selection. She gave us light fixture ideas, helped to determine window coverings, and sewed some curtains for our family room. Thanks to Tanya, our house now has a definite style, and many people have complemented us on how comfortable it feels. We highly recommend Tanya's services to anyone wanting someone to hold their hand throughout the sometimes overwhelming decorating process!"

Back in October I wrote about Jamie Oliver being an entrepreneurial role model. I still believe that to be true but in the last week he has closed three of the four branches of 'Union Jacks' citing the 'challenging climate'. I am particularly sad that the Chiswick branch closed as I ran a regular networking group there and the staff couldn't have been more helpful or welcoming. It just goes to prove that even someone as successful as Jamie Oliver doesn't win every time.
So what went wrong?
I don't have insider knowledge on the reason for the failure so I can only surmise what went wrong. I think the offer was confusing, one description I read was 'traditional English pub grub' but they weren't pubs. The Evening Standard described them as a pizza restaurant because they also sold pizza! If people don't understand the offer they're reluctant to buy and when there is a lot of competition people really need to understand why they should come to you.
I believe that the marketing could have been stronger. Many people I spoke to were aware of Union Jacks in Chiswick but didn't know it was a Jamie Oliver brand. Might that have made a difference? I don't know how much marketing was done in Chiswick but I didn't pick up on any communications just four miles away and we didn't even get any marketing messages at our meetings. Shouldn't we have been asked to book a Christmas celebration when we met in November?
I got the feeling that some of the Chiswick team felt the location may not have been right. Another successful chain had closed their branch at the same address before Union Jacks took it over. Location, location, location are the primary considerations in restaurants and retail. It's incredibly difficult to get people even to cross the road unless it's for something unique.
What are the lessons for small businesses?
- Make the offer clear and easy to understand.
- Make it easy for those in your target market to recognise that your offer is for them
- Use every opportunity to get your marketing message out there. Social media is cheap, printing postcards can be very cost effective and your local paper will often be interested in a good news story so do something newsworthy and invite the press along.
- Remember even happy customers are likely to forget about you within 90 days unless you stay in touch so make sure you are communicating with customers and prospects on a regular basis.
- Choose your location very carefully and find out what kind of business preceded you and what why they left.
- Set clear targets and measure your performance against them. If you're not hitting your targets try to figure out why and do something about it. If that fails know when to pull the plug.
Last Word.
I have to congratulate the Union Jacks' team in Chiswick for remaining professional to the end. They had less than a week's notice of closure but they were their usual charming and helpful selves when we held our meeting on their penultimate day. I'm sure the fact that they had all been promised new jobs within the Jamie empire helped but that too is the mark of a good company.

First Flash Friday!
Welcome to the first weekly installment of Flash Fridays! Originally I was planning for Flash Fridays to consist of every Web Diversions reader receiving a strip-o-gram. But I crunched the numbers and decided it wasn't in the budget. I liked the name though so I decided to keep it and just show you a new flash movie every Friday instead.
So, without further ado, I present our first flash pick, Salad Fingers: Episode One
Warning: this may severely creep you out.

There is a direct correlation between the amount of Risk Taken and the amount of Return Expected. Financial Analysts will tell you that Risks = Return (Higher Risks = Higher Returns and vice versa). However…having lead a couple of businesses and lectured in Project Management, I have come to the conclusion that the key in Risk Taking is; "mastering the art of managing risks better". It is true – Risk is not a wild animal that cannot be tamed!
In fact, making "everyday" decisions in our life involves Risks! But because these decisions are "trivial and small"…we simply don't think about it…as it becomes second nature and routine – driving to work, cooking a meal in the kitchen, taking a shower. If you really think about it…you could possibly get injured doing any of the above 3 examples! (Did I hear a light bulb moment there?)
So what happens to us when it comes to "NON-everyday" decisions? Why do we just STOP at our tracks and become cautious…numb…and stuck? Is it Fear? Is it Not Knowing the Outcome? Is it simply a Lack of Self-Belief? Well…don't fret; it happens to the best of us.
Let me share some quick "What-2-do Strategies" when faced with a Risky Moment or Decision Point…
- Get Relevant (More) Information
- Evaluate the What-Ifs
- Talk to an Expert (Others who have done it…Well)
- Stay away from Dream-Killers (in the form of Negative people, etc)
- Set Clear Objectives and Goals
- Check your "Action" Barriers (e.g.: a Bad Past Experience?)
- Project the End-Benefits in your Mind
- Get Clarity of Heart (Linked with your Passions)
- Believe in Yourself (and Your Ability)
Incidentally when I was living in Australia in 2009, I bought a 1999 Saab 9-5 car…it was a Risk, especially when the whole world around me says to get a Japanese badged car which is more reliable, ya-da…ya-da…ya-da. I chose this car after much evaluation and going through the above Strategies. And now I dare say I have "peace in my mind and heart" that this is the Best Choice given my budget, needs and my love (vs. fear) of owning a Continental car. I've done it again in 2010, by buying another Continental…a Volvo. ; )
Have you ever taken any risks in your life?
As one saying goes "If you win, you will be happy; If you lose, you will be wise. Nothing Ventured, Nothing Gained."
I challenge you today…if you are at a Crossroad of an apparent Risky/Critical Decision…be Bold and Look Risk in the Eye…and say "BRING IT ON!" (of course, please do your ground-work looking at the Strategies above).
If still uncertain, you can always call me up and I can Coach you to Believe in Yourself! (and you'll be glad to know that I have done this many a times and have been very successfully too) ; )
Go on…take that Risk today!

Mask of Shadows by Linsey Miller. ★★★1/2
I saw the words "gender fluid assassin" and was sold. I immediately requested an ARC, even though I already had a number of other books to read. Then I saw the back blurb comparing it to Throne of Glass, and I started getting nervous. I hated Throne of Glass. Turns out, I shouldn't have been worried. Mask of Shadows is way better, and it delivers practically everything I want from a YA fantasy book about a battle of assassins.
Sallot Leon makes a living as a thief, but Sal doesn't plan on staying a thief forever. They are still haunted by memories of their family and homeland… and the twisted Shadows that destroyed them both. Sal planned on joining the army to try and gain their vengeance, but then they find a flyer announcing that the Queen is holding trials for her new Opal, one of her four most trusted assassins. And Sal spies an opportunity. But it's not until they've already joined the competition that they realize this is a fight to the death.
Let's get this out of the way upfront: Mask of Shadows is a story about a gender fluid person and not a story about being gender fluid. I've seen other reviews complaining that Mask of Shadows didn't teach them anything about gender fluidity. Look, if you want to learn more about the subject, go read a gender fluid author writing about their experiences. As far as I'm aware, Mask of Shadows isn't own voices, so it's not were you should be going for an education anyway. It's simply a fun, fantasy adventure novel where the protagonist happens to be gender fluid. You know, just like some protagonists happen to be cis men or cis women. Cis people shouldn't have the monopoly on fun adventure stories!
I don't want to discuss this aspect too much more, since I'm cis and can't talk about the accuracy of Sal's portrayal. As far as I know, I didn't see anything harmful. But then again, I could be completely missing something. Unfortunately, I haven't yet found any reviews by trans authors at all, much less by gender fluid reviewers. If you know of such a review, please send me a link!
I liked Sal as a protagonist. They're (Sal uses she, he and they) smart, quick and nimble. All great traits for a rouge type character! Sal may not be the strongest or most well trained competitor, but they are able to use their cleverness to their advantage. Plus, Sal has a ruthless streak. They're a tad more anti-heroic than I see in most YA protagonists. This makes total sense. Sal is competing to be an assassin, so ruthlessness is key.
When I said Sal was haunted by memories of war and twisted magical creatures, I meant it. It's to the level where I'm wondering if Sal might have PTSD? In reflection, a couple of scenes read that way. I'm no psychologist, so don't put too much faith in my speculations.
The entire cast of Mask of Shadows was fairly diverse. Sal is described as having dark brown skin, and their love interest is a bisexual girl! There's also an aromantic supporting character and lots of other characters of color, including the Queen. The culture felt gender egalitarian, and female characters occupied a number of different roles, including ones that other fantasy books typically reserve for men. And guess what? There were multiple significant and sympathetic female characters, none of whom is ever implied to be superior to other women.
While I infer that Sal's culture is gender egalitarian, it was hard to get much of a feel for it otherwise. World building in general is scanty, which is too bad. It's one of my favorite parts of the fantasy genre. Besides the gender egalitarian aspect, it basically seemed like every other faux-medieval fantasy I'd read.
Mask of Shadows is a debut novel, and I can sort of tell. It's not bad! In fact, I'd say it's really good for a debut! But I did come away with the sense that it could be stronger. World building is probably the weakest point. Everything else is as good as it needs to be… it's just not as good as it could be? I hope that makes sense. So while I do think it could be improved, I still enjoyed it a lot. And I am definitely reading the sequel and whatever else Linsey Miller writes.
I received an ARC from the publisher via Netgalley in exchange for a free and honest review.

Nwachukwu said that the troops also recovered two gun trucks abandoned by the insurgents during the encounter.
"The insurgents in three vehicles, including Gun trucks had infiltrated and attacked the community, when troops at the formation were alerted by locals.
"The troops supported by the Air Task Force swiftly responded to the attack killing 16 insurgents and capturing two trucks loaded with guns abandoned by the insurgents, as they tried escaping, having been overwhelmed by the superior firepower from the troops.
"The gallant troops also recovered 163 Rounds of Anti Aircraft Gun Ammunition during the fierce encounter," he said.
During the firefight, he said, four civilians and a soldier, unfortunately, sustained varying degrees of injury and have been promptly evacuated to a Military Hospital, where they are currently receiving medical attention.
"The FOB has been further reinforced with additional troops, while fighting patrols are on the trail of the insurgents who fled the attack."

|Birch sap is collected around campus every year.
Todd Paris photo
Anyone who wishes to participate may check out equipment, including taps, buckets and lids or tubing. The meeting will take place
This is the second year for the cooperative, through which individuals collect birch sap in exchange for a share of the birch syrup that is processed. Last year, more than 40 individuals and school groups collected sap for the university program, which is conducting research on birch sap processing methods. Dawe said that community members contributed nearly half the 6,000-plus gallons that were collected and staff harvested the rest.
Much of the processed sap was lost last October when a freezer failed, but Dawe said the program and freezer are back on track. Dawe says is she is modeling the UAF birch sap work on successful maple research programs at the University of Vermont and Cornell University, which make and sell maple products to support their programs. OneTree hopes to sell birch caramels and other birch products made from the sap that is collected. Although the ratio varies from year to year, Dawe said, last year it took 113 to 117 gallons of sap to create one gallon of birch syrup.
Dawe said sap flow will generally begin in the Fairbanks area between April 16-21. The OneTree Alaska program is an educational and research program affiliated with the School of Natural Resources and Extension. This year's birch sap program is also supported by the Alaska Center for Energy and Power. For more information, contact Dawe at email@example.com or at 907-474-5517 or 907-474-5907.

As campaigning for the February 19th, 2013 General Elections intensifies, members of the public are expressing their concerns on several matters in relation to strategies employed by political parties , in particular the National Democratic Congress (NDC) and the New National Party (NNP), and the behaviour of some of their supporters.
Complaints reaching the Watch Dog Committee set up by the Civil Society to monitor the Code of Political Conduct include:
* Noise pollution – public address systems beaming out soca music during normal business hours
* Defacing public property – electricity/telephone poles, roundabouts and retaining walls have been defaced by the painting of party slogans and symbols
* Removal of posters – complaints have been received that posters of both parties are being removed
* An advertisement depicting the property of member of Government – members of the public have expressed the view that this advertisement is inappropriate
* Obstruction of traffic by supporters on route to political rallies and supporters throwing stones at each other on route from rallies.
The need to ensure continuing respect for internationally recognized human, civil, political, economic, social and cultural rights of all and the adherence to Chapter 1 Section 1 of the Constitution of Grenada, which guarantees the fundamental rights and freedoms to all citizens, including, in Section 1 (b): "Freedom of conscience, of express and of assembly".
We therefore call on political parties and candidates to ensure that their campaign managers, chairpersons and others to be made aware of these complaints and to refrain from such actions.
All must be mindful that after the election, whatever its outcome, each and every Grenadian should participate in building our nation – Grenada, Carriacou and Petite Martinque.

There are just WAY too many people (kids AND adults) who are occupied with texting and on cellphones, while driving. While the video below is probably pretty graphic for some, I believe it is necessary to get the point across, about how dangerous just a few measly seconds of irresponsibility can be. A big ooh-rah goes out to the writer David Kusumoto from the United Kingdom for this video. Our country should really be promoting the same message. Share this with someone YOU love today.
