How much one cares about beauty makes a statement to those around them. Taking care of one's beauty is an activity that can be very enjoyable, often with the benefit of immediate results. Beginners may fear this, but reading this article should help.
Apply moisturizer to your face every day. Even oily skin needs to be moisturized. During the day, make sure that your moisturizer contains an SPF rating.
To play up the color of your beautiful hazel or gorgeous green eyes, choose darker neutrals that create contrast against lighter eyes, shades that have a red base to bring out the green, or other complementary shades. Colors of choice for this are purple, light browns, and shimmery lavenders or silver.
These processes open your follicles, and tanning during this time can cause issues. The combination can cause very painful irritation. Your skin is delicate after waxing or sugaring, and you should avoid products that contain harsh chemicals or fragrances that can cause discomfort.
When using something for shimmer, apply it with a light hand and use it only on parts of your body the light is going to hit. This will give your skin a slight glow effect. You can use highlighter on the higher parts of your face such as cheekbones, nose, and brow, and then use a layer of loose powder.
Clear Nail Polish
Do you find that your nails become chipped and scratched after each manicure? Apply a top coat. This will keep your nails looking great for up to a week. Ensure that you do not use clear nail polish instead! You need to buy the top coat instead of the clear nail polish.
Good makeup brushes are needed when applying makeup. Although brushes can sometimes be very costly, they can dramatically improve the way your makeup is applied. If you are on a budget, you can try searching online auction sites for great deals on high quality makeup brushes to save some money.
In order to keep grey hairs away, eat some curry leaf chutney. It contains the nutrients for producing pigment that colors your hair. Try one teaspoon per day.
Use eyedrops throughout your day to keep your early morning sparkle. This also prevents your eyes from getting dry, itchy and irritated. If you stare at a television or computer screen for several hours a day, eye drops may be just what you need to feel better. Keep eyedrops handy in your desk or purse.
Liquid foundation under the cap can be used as a concealer. When you are out of regular concealer, the collected foundation in the cap serves as a great replacement. This makeup will work perfectly as a concealer because it is thick and covers imperfections.
The main factors to pay attention to when you are trying to work on your appearance or that of someone near you is fitness, clothes, skin care and general posture. By choosing to work on the mentioned topics, you can build a more beautiful you.
As a man, your hair is essential to your looks. Shampoo and conditioner are important components in hair care.
Prevent Ingrown Hairs
Try to use lotion to prevent ingrown hairs. For the best results, apply soon after you shave. Using lotion every day will help your skin not to be dry, and will prevent ingrown hairs. Doing this will cause your ingrown hairs to fall out, and new ones won't be formed.
Beauty is a great way to make yourself feel better, but you don't have to be a beautician to be great at it. Virtually anyone can enjoy it. These ideas were collected so that people of all skill levels can get involved.

Lucy Anderson from Pennine Care NHS Foundation Trust tells us how keeping up with Twitter has raised the profile of the knowledge service:I keep up to date with Twitter and regularly read tweets from my Trust. I noticed that a service director had tweeted about how forward thinking one of our falls prevention teams is. I had just done a communication about horizon scanning bulletins and thought I would email him directly to make him aware of the Falls Prevention Horizon Scanning Bulletin.
This caught his interest and he came to see the Knowledge Service team to find out about what we do.
He was just setting up a team to produce 'data packs' to inform trust strategy developments. He could immediately see how we could fit in with this team.
The Knowledge Service was invited to be on a working group to produce the 'data packs'. Accompanying us was Information and Performance, Communications and Finance.
The final 'data pack' informed a group of senior managers when they were discussing strategy and business plans. The 'data pack' team now know more about each other's areas of expertise and feel at ease contacting each other. It was great for the Knowledge Service to get exposure with other services linked to Knowledge Management activities.

By Jim Rogers
From Publishers Weekly
Financier Rogers retired at 37 and motorcycled all over the world, turning the journey into the ebook funding Biker, a hybrid of commercial suggestion and travelogue. That trip, notwithstanding, didn't squelch his wanderlust. rather than having fun with his sedate lifestyles educating finance, Rogers made up our minds to take his fiancée and a souped-up Mercedes on a frighteningly extreme highway journey: 3 years, 116 nations and 152,000 miles. just like the automobile that plowed via snow, dust, sand and highways on each continent, Rogers's memoir of the adventure is its personal breed. even supposing Rogers writes, some distance too in short, of life-changing occasions like getting married and listening to of his father's dying, the ebook has an unusual point of detachment. additionally, although Rogers stocks funding recommendation and observations in regards to the planet's political economies, his innovations are too common to function company classes. the result's an experience story with out center and a finance publication with no enamel. Rogers attempts to make up for this via describing stories like consuming fried silkworms and looking at prostitutes stuck within the world's intercourse exchange. mostly, although, he chronicles prosaic information, like taking vehicle ferries and speaking to border guards, after which riffs on politics, funds, immigration and tradition.

In 1999 he set out on one other world-record force around the globe in a custom-built yellow Mercedes convertible along with his fiancee, Paige Parker. beginning out in Iceland, the journey took 3 years and encompassed 116 international locations, lots of that are hardly ever visited, in a continuing swath throughout Europe, the previous Soviet Republic, China, Africa, the center East, and the Americas. nobody had ever pushed overland following those routes, a complete of 152,000 miles, one other Guinness international list. Rogers' insightful observation at the political and ancient topography of those varied nations cuts via stereotypes to offer us a glimpse of the realm how it rather is, for larger or worse. it is a gutsy travelogue experience from a man who shoots directly from the hip, and it particularly hits the mark.

He's no more dead than you or I," Chase said, then waved his men forward. He had brought a dozen seamen, all identically dressed in white duck trousers, red and white hooped shirts and straw hats stiffened with pitch and circled with red and white ribbons. They wore long pigtails and carried thick staves which Sharpe guessed were capstan bars. Their leader was a huge man whose bare forearms were thick with tattoos, while beside him was a Negro, every bit as tall, who carried his capstan bar as though it were a hazel wand.
Smoking was forbidden because of the danger of fire, and passengers who chewed tobacco were to use the spittoons. Spitting on the deck was strictly forbidden. No passenger was to climb the rigging without permission of a ship's officer. Passengers in steerage, like Sharpe, were prohibited from entering the great cabin or the roundhouse unless invited. There would be no foul language aboard. "Christ all-bloody-mighty," a sailor grumbled as he struggled with Sharpe's barrel of arrack.
The way was clear now for Sharpe to go down the passage beside the house, but curiosity held him in place. There was a commotion in the alley, sounding like the jeers and scramble that always accompanied a band of constables marching through the lesser streets of London, then the outer gate was pushed fully open and Sharpe could only stare in astonishment. A group of British sailors stood in the gate, led by a naval captain, a post captain no less, who was immaculate in cocked hat, blue frock coat, silk breeches and stockings, silver-buckled shoes and slim sword.

Do you remember these super short-lived celebrity marriages?
Divorce is always difficult -- but it might be slightly easier when there's only a week's worth of emotional distress.
Celebrities are no strangers to ill-advised weddings, but just like us regular folk, they usually realize their mistakes pretty quickly. So quickly, in fact, that many of their marriages just become footnotes-of-footnotes in Hollywood history.
Britney Spears still holds the record with her 55-hour marriage to Jason Alexander (not the one from "Seinfeld," for those who need a reminder), but plenty of other stars regretted their walks down the aisle. And to be fair, some of those ceremonies weren't spontaneous -- Mario Lopez and Ali Landry dated for years, and their marriage still crumbled in less than a month. Take a look:

Corn tells the story of a young girl who returns home to bear an illegitimate child, and witnesses an environmental accident involving a genetically modified crop of corn. Doubted by the community she has returned to, she questions her own sanity as she tries to discover what is happening. Her journey takes her on a trip down the food chain, as she tracks a potentially life-threatening byproduct from the cornfield to the supermarket. Ultimately she has to confront psychological demons that haunt her as she grows into motherhood, and comes to terms with her own biology. Tapping into cultural myths of food, fertility, birth and sacrifice, Corn is a chilling look at what we put in our mouths and our babies' mouths, and the convergence of Science and Mother Nature.
Jena Malone, who plays the young girl Emily, has established herself in both Hollywood and the independent film world as a serious young actress to watch. As a child, she had played the young Jodie Foster in Contact, and opposite Susan Sarandon and Julia Roberts in Stepmom. But her breakout roles in Bastard Out of Carolina, Donnie Darko, and Dangerous Lives of Altar Boys caught people's attention. Since then she has moved between independent film (The United States of Leland with Kevin Spacey) and Hollywood fare (Sense and Sensibility with Keira Knightley, Kevin Costner's production of Hatfields and McCoys.)
Her debut in Bastard Out of Carolina earned Jena her first of three Young Artist Awards, along with nominations for Best Actress in a Miniseries by the Screen Actor's Guild, and Best Debut Performance at the Independent Spirit Awards. Jena was nominated twice in a row for Best Supporting Actress at the Blockbuster Entertainment Awards, and in 1998 Jena earned her first Golden Globe nomination for her work in the television movie Hope.
Her father Horace is played by Don Harvey (Thin Red Line, In Too Deep). There are notable performances from Peter McRobbie (Brokeback Mountain, Mighty Aphrodite), Pamela Gray, Jamie Herrold and John Hartmann, and a superb New York-based cast, with casting by Georgianne Walken & Sheila Jaffe.
Based on an original screenplay by writer/director Dave Silver, Corn was produced by Michael Corrente and Revere Pictures (The Door in the Floor, I'll Sleep When I'm Dead). It was an Official Selection of the 2004 Hamptons International Film Festival. The film was distributed in the U.S. and Canada by Hart Sharp Video in October of 2004, and is available from Netflix, Amazon, or Blockbuster.

It was a beautiful afternoon and Henry's mother was getting Henry's baby brother, Oliver, ready for a walk. She trusted that both Henry and his older brother, Julian, were able to grab their little jackets and get ready to go. "Come on guys! Let's go and see if anyone could spot a new flower or see an animal in the woods! And when we're back, it will be time for some homework and snacks". Henry's mom cheerfully grabbed her cardigan, lifted Oliver, who was happily gurgling in her arms and set out with Henry and Julian in tow.
While they started singing a song, Henry was very distracted.
Homework was entirely occupying his mind and not in a good way. Henry simply could not bring himself anymore to tell his mom what happened every time he began to read a page. She'd always replied that he was gifted with a strong imagination and dismissed his worries by affectionately ruffling his hair. But Henry saw each single letter and often words too rapidly sliding and moving across the page, almost as tiny, quick spiders, too fast for his eyes to catch them. He knew this happened only to him and despite his strenuous efforts, he could never complete his homework.
He was dreading the moment when they would be back home and this torture would restart.
Some leaves were floating in the breeze.
All of sudden, there was a whisper. But Henry's mother and Julian were already saying outloud the name of the new flowers on the path and Oliver was shrieking with enthusiasm.
Only Henry heard it.
He turned around and thought he saw something in the dark depths of the wood.

FremantleMedia Enterprises unveils new series development with Headline Pictures and Sennet Entertainment
FremantleMedia Enterprises (FME), the commercial and brand extension arm of FremantleMedia, today announced that it has optioned the rights to produce and distribute THE DRIVERS, a series based on the high-octane 24 hour motor race in Le Mans in the 1950s/1960s, as part of its global drama strategy.
This news is on the heels of last weeks announcement of FMEs plans to elevate its drama offering to finance and package English language European drama series for the U.S. market as well as the rest of the world. As part of its strategy to offer funding to new dramas, FME plans to fund and package THE DRIVERS in Europe and then sell it into the U.S and internationally.
We are putting significant resources behind our aggressive global drama push. In addition to THE DRIVERS, we have many projects in development and are currently looking for more, stated David Ellender, Global CEO, FME. THE DRIVERS is an exciting property with true transatlantic appeal that lends itself to our expertise in extending brands to their full potential across multiple platforms.
The motor car racing scene in the 50s and 60s was raw, sexy and dramatic, with life and death always hanging in the balance, said Mark Sennet, CEO of Sennet Entertainment. Working on the international stage with FME and Headline to produce this auspicious series is inspiring for Sennet Entertainment and we hope this will be the first of many projects with these partners.
The Le Mans race is one of the greatest sporting events in history, said Stewart Mackinnon, CEO of Headline Pictures. Headline is thrilled to be producing this major drama series in partnership with FME and Sennet Entertainment, and is the first of a number of ambitious global projects which we will be announcing over the coming months.
THE DRIVERS deal was brokered by Shane Murphy, FMEs Head of Acquisitions and Development for the U.K., Stewart Mackinnon, CEO of Headline Pictures, and David Davoli of the Davoli Law Firm who represented Sennet Entertainment (K Street and Dr. Vegas). FME also today announced that it will be entering a first look deal with Headline Pictures in London and with Sennet Entertainment in the U.S. to develop a slate of long form content.
THE DRIVERS will be co-produced by Mark Sennet Entertainment and Headline Pictures. The series will be based on the book, Shelby: The Man,The Cars, the Legend written by Wallace A.Wyss which was optioned from Iconografix. It will tell the true story of wild young drivers from the US, Germany, France, Italy and Britain, friends and rivals, amateurs risking everything for a shot on the tracks. Its the rise and fall of iconic Enzo Ferrari, the power games going on behind closed doors, and above all an unexplored side of the 1950s and 60s.

Budpac History
MDF Board Based Packaging Suppliers
Budpac SI Limited was originally Budget Packaging and was established in 1988 in Kumeu, Auckland; for the express purpose of providing the manufacturer of board products with a means for the disposing of downgrade product. Budpac achieved this by producing inexpensive MDF timber packaging components and MDF industrial grade shelving.
Fletcher Wood Panels was an integral part of the formation of Budget Packaging, and in 1995 the company expanded to include manufacturing packaging for a large number of the Fletcher Wood Panel branches. This ongoing relationship with the major NZ board producers grew again in 1998, to include a South Island Operation which was established to supply the requirements of Carter Holt Harvey's MDF plant in Ashley Rangiora, now owned by Daiken New Zealand Limited.
Budpac established its operation on site with the MDF manufacturer in 1998 and has strengthened that relationship with Daiken NZ Ltd over recent years. Budpac has grown into one of the largest, most successful MDF board based packaging and MDF shelving suppliers in NZ, boasting a large and extremely diverse client base nationwide. In 2012 Budpac sold its Kumeu based operation, and so became Budpac SI Ltd. Budpac SI Limited has negotiated with New Zealand's primary MDF manufacturers an ongoing line of supply.
Close relationships formed with Daiken New Zealand Ltd together with supply lines through Dongwha Patinna and Nelson Pine guarantee consistent, quality MDF product for our markets.

Hereby perceive we the love of God, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren. 1 John 3:16 KJV
Loving and caring for one another in obedience to the Word is a true test of salvation.
We know that we have passed from death unto life, because we love the brethren. He that loveth not his brother abideth in death. 1 John 3:14 KJV
This is also what is found in 1 John 5:2
By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and keep his commandments. 1 John 5:2 KJV
When we obey the Bible, the Word of God, it shows how much we love one another. We love each other enough to be epistles they can read. They see the beauty of a life in covenant with God in Christ and are drawn to Him because of what they see in us.
We are blessed to be a blessing.

Foundation Upholds, Shortens AI Suspension
The Appraisal Foundation today released a statement upholding their suspension of the Appraisal Institute (AI). However, the length of the suspension was reduced to December 31, 2010. The suspension was initially to last through April 15, 2011. The notice comes after an appeal by the Appraisal Institute was heard by the Foundation
I would like to know what VAR's and NAR's position is on this.
I am looking for details regarding AI suspension
This maybe out of context but feeling like venting today. After 21 years selling real estate, I see very little need for even having appraisers involved in the transaction. It is not an exact science yet it is treated as such. Hire three appraisers, get three different values. As a cheif appraiser for a very large mortgage company based in Michigan (until bought out by BofA) told me he tells the appraiser to look at the sales price and justify it, makes good sense to me. Who has a better opinion of value then the person who has look at the competition and made an informed decision on what he feels the home is worth or "market value". He will be making the payments, so in my opinion that is the value of the home. Why does an appraiser who may not even be familiar with homes in the area be the one person to determine the equity in a home (after all that is really what they are doing) they are not gods!!!! I could go on and on about the appraisal system and its effect on real estate, I just truly believe it should not be left up to one person to determine value, the value is determined by the buyer as is in ALL free market situations, why is housing different? I would love to hear somebodies opinion why that is!
In response to Paul: Part of the reason the real estate industry is in the shape it's in today is because a few dishonest appraisers were valuing homes 20-30 percent above what they were actually worth because a realtor, buyer and/or mortgage broker wanted it to come in at that value and then when the buyers had some financial difficulty or tried to sell the property they were so far upside down in the loan, foreclosure was the only option. If an appraiser does an honest and diligent job in valuing a property, it's going to be pretty close to what it's worth regardless of what others want it to be worth.
Paul, if you were lending your savings to individuals would you want to know what you had as collateral? Or would you trust the individuals assessment of value. Prudent lenders would, of course, want and demand an independent assessment of value. A decision by a bank to stop using appraisals would be a quick step towards failing.
Paul – you must be new to this business? How informed is the buyer in any particular neighborhood? He wouldn't know an apple from an orange in most cases. They are sold on features and location. Most are uninformed. Are we going to leave it up to the realtor to assign value? Most, not all, realtors don't know how to assign value to a property. They either repeat tax record values or assign value based on what the home owner says they want. We all know where that goes. And you know, an appraiser doesn't have to be involved in the transaction….that is if the buyer is paying cash. But, can you believe it, when someone else puts up the capital for the purchase they kind of want to know what risk is involved. No not all appraiser's are perfect but you have to have checks and balances. We all know what could happen if we don't, can you say foreclosures…underwater….etc. Also, it is better you have appraiser's because who else will the buyer suit when they find out they can't sell their property because it was valued to high?……you.
I question the relevancy (at this stage) of anything having to do with the Appraisal Foundation or the Appraisal Institute.
What we need are relevant regional MLS database that are standardized to an efficient extent and that are keeping up with the local markets and latest technology.
NAR needs to have a position in order to be relevant itself.
In a purchase transaction the Bank hires the appraiser. The Bank is the one lending the money, therefore they want to know the real value of the house. Many times the buyers are influenced by emotions. The appraisal should be based on similar closed sales, not on the subject's selling price.
In response to Paul's comment..I am a licensed broker in two states, certified appraiser in two states, with 25 years of experience. To say there is no need for an appraiser is the same as saying there is no need for a real estate salesperson. In a perfect world, values would neven decrease, buyers would be informed, and sellers would be HONEST. Unfortunately, none of these are true. Then throw in the greedy banks, who don't care who gets hurt, and most everyone can see the need for an honest opinion of value. Like myself when selling a property, I'm sure you feel it would be a whole lot easier if you could just write the contract, and go to closing. The debacle of the financial industry shows a need for checks and balances within the system. If,also, more agents were educated on values, and did their homework ( CMA's) there would also be less problems. To put the blame all on appraisers is certainly not right. If the banks were using their own money,then they could do whatever they wanted to. If the real estate agent were to be married to the deal, and would be willing to step up to the plate when a property went to foreclosure two years later, then yes there would be no need for appraisers. Everyone wants the money now, but no responsibility later. So, Paul, before you pint fingers, you should look in the mirror first. And, as I said, I'm also a broker and sell real estate.
For Paul,
I'm both a broker and an appraiser and I hear your frustration. However, an appraisal is not for the benefit of the buyer/seller to justify the sale – it is to protect the lender. There are many instances when a property sells for more than it should – perhaps the buyer just falls in love with the home and is willing to pay the list price. This happens often with dual agency – I see it all the time when appraising. With an outside agent you usually see a 3%-7% discount to list. Also, the appraisal deminishes the possiblity for fraud as both parties could jack up the pirce of the property and get a mortgage for more than the proeprty is worth. An appraisal for the benefit of the lender would catch this. As for the chief appraiser's actions well that is just flat out wrong and that appraiser should not be in the business – that's how we got into this mess.
My response to Paul! Here is the deal in my county right now. We have 4 major realtors in this very rural county. As appraisers we do a market conditions report that is now required. When I do a search in my county of all single family home sales and apply them to the market conditions report the results are that in my county sale prices are down in the last 3 month period by approximately 23% from the previous 4-6 month period, the listing prices are up 4% and the number of sales are down 16%. The sales for this report are taken off my Multiple Listing Service. What is wrong with this picture? This is the market that realtors are creating in an economy that should definitely show a decrease in listing prices….. That's what realtors know about values. I did an appraisal of a property a few months ago and the homeowners weren't happy with the value on their new construction home. They built the home through a general contractor. It wasn't a spec home. 3 weeks later I received a market report created by one of the local realtors for this customer from the bank. The realtor had used 5 comparable sales that were on large lake lots and the value of those lots alone were worth at least $150,000 more than the lot that the subject home was built upon. We are talking a home worth $250,000. The realtor did nothing but please the homeowner. The typical home buyer knows nothing more than what the local realtor wants them to know. Every realtor today should have to take a course on just the specifics that an appraiser is subject to when appraising a home for the secondary mortgage market. Realtors are also notorious for making mistakes in gross living area, dates of sale, listing times, number of bedrooms and bathrooms, etc. Do your job Paul and make some sales. Appraisers need them right now!
Just got back into the R. E. market after 2 years absence…when did the table turn to a point where appraiser (borderline GOD) can dictate real estate transaction. Just venting…they killed 7 deal for me this year so far…FHA 120% on flipping rule ie, seller bought a fixer upper at $150,000 put in $40k of repair and update and to get the property up to code…market comp's indicate $280k to $300k listed at $260k,,,under contract for $285k with 9 offer (L.A. county area)…appraisal came back at $180k because of the FHA rules…????? that is why the market is not turning around. Gove't control appreciation.
I understand your points here, I am a Realtor as well as an Appraiser. It's not an exact science, an appraisal is actually an "opinion of value". Many times, the appraiser does not know the area as well as needed, but mostly because the work is hard to get, as the HVCC came to the picture. Appraisers are doing the work that they can get. Anyway, you could hash this out for years with all the different problems, but the bottom line is when the Bank lends their money, they say what goes. We tend to think that we have a right to buy a house with someone elses money. I'm sure if any one of us was lending out hundreds of thousands of dollars, you would have your own way of protecting it.
Paul, thank you for speaking up for all of us. I agree that there should be THREE appraisals (AKA opinions) with regard to value on a property. Since July 2009, I have had numerous appraisers who were unfamiliar with an area, under estimate and cause me to lose sales. NAR: Please do all you can to help us on this HUGE problem!
Paul you are right as long as the buyer is paying cash. Go ahead and let them determine the value. If you have been in the business as long as you say, you have seen Realtors who overprice homes and then get an uneducated buyer to write an offer for way too much. Most buyers do not care what they pay for the home as much as how much the monthly payment is. The Apraisal is for the protection of the lender.
An appraiser is a professional that has a college education. He has taken courses for 200 hours and must have 2000 hours behind him before he can even qualify to take a state exam. I am also a real estate agent so I am not dissing them, but the depth of knowledge in knowing how to make adjustments for time, lot size, GLA, etc. is much greater than the ordinary agent has learned. Most appraisers work within their own market area and therefore are very familiar with values. No they are not gods, but neither are real estate agents who just pull comps that seem to match what they are looking for without regard to number of rooms, etc.
I think everyone got off course from the original question. The Appraisal Institute is an organization that has members much like the National Association of Realtors. For a long time now, the ones who had a "God" syndrone was The Institute. There were other organizations to belong to but The Institute was "the One". Since more equality has come to the appraisers through licensing, the playing field has become more even. The Institute has really good educational programs as does other orgnaizaitons. They have as much or more lobby influence as the realtors associations do. I truly do believe that much power should be monitored more closely. Realtors and appraisers need to be operating under similar rules and appraisals will not come in low or requiring repairs. Be honest and when the roof is worn, tell the seller he will have to replace the roof or take less to make up for the buyer having to replace it. The appraisal protects the lender as they want to have a property that will last the length of the loan or if foreclosed on, will at least get most of their money back. The Institute is an organization to pay to belong to and in return an educational program is offered that is good. Our federal and state governing boards are doing quite well on policing the appraisers. Somethimes we have to learn our place in the system and this was one of those times. Nothing more and nothing less. We should not strive to be above the government that rules our nation. It should be taken in context as a lesson learned and move on to more pressing situations.

Candor, defiance and dark humor mark Hillary Clinton's book about 'What Happened'
Hillary Clinton has written a book. Have you heard?
Choice quotes have been seeping out for weeks, and I'll admit that I reacted to one of them – "Now I'm letting down my guard" – as if the smoke alarm had started shrieking in my living room. Why believe her? In her previous books, she measured her words with teaspoons and then sprayed them with disinfectant.
Then again, we've been told over and over that Clinton is very different in private. And she is now a private citizen.
This distinction seems to have made all the difference.
"What Happened" is not one book, but many. It is a candid and blackly funny account of her mood in the direct aftermath of losing to Donald Trump. It is a post-mortem, in which she is both coroner and corpse. It is a feminist manifesto. It is a score-settling jubilee. It is a rant against James Comey, Bernie Sanders, the media, James Comey, Vladimir Putin and James Comey. It is a primer on Russian spying. It is a thumping of Trump. ("I sometimes wonder: If you add together his time spent on golf, Twitter and cable news," she writes, "what's left?")
It is worth reading. Winning the popular vote by nearly 3 million might not have been enough to shatter the country's highest, hardest glass ceiling, but it seems to have put 2,864,974 extra cracks in Clinton's reserve.
In the run-up to the publication of this book, Democrats have been privately expressing their dread, fearing it will be a distraction and reopen old wounds.
I wonder if, after reading it, they will feel otherwise. Are there moments when "What Happened" is wearying, canned and disingenuous, spinning events like a top? Yes. Does it offer any new hypotheses about what doomed Clinton's campaign? No. It merely synthesizes old ones; Clinton's diagnostics are the least interesting part of the book. Is there a full chapter devoted to her email, clearly intended to make her own closing arguments in this case? Yes. She can't shake her inner litigator.
But this book is not just a perseverative recap of 2016. It is the story of what it was like to run for president of the United States as the female nominee of a major party, a first in U.S. history. The apotheosis of Leaning In. Doesn't this experience rate an account from Clinton herself? Especially when, after sticking her neck out, the only place some people could envision it was in a stockade?
More generally, something truly extraordinary happened in U.S. politics last year, and Clinton was at the center of it. Fifty years from now, are historians going to complain that she had no business offering her perspective?
"I was running a traditional presidential campaign with carefully thought-out policies and painstakingly built coalitions," she writes, "while Trump was running a reality TV show that expertly and relentlessly stoked Americans' anger and resentment."
The first two chapters of "What Happened" are wry and dramatic. Clinton recounts the otherworldliness of Inauguration Day – she briefly imagined herself in Bali – and the bleak weeks following the election, when she watched bad television, got in touch with her inner Marie Kondo and did lots of yoga. "If you've never done alternate nostril breathing," she writes, "it's worth a try."
You may have heard that "What Happened" is angry. It's true. Or defiant, anyway. Love it or loathe it, chafe at it or cheer it; you will now see, for the first time, what it looks like when Clinton doesn't spend all of her energy suppressing her irritation. Former FBI director Comey gets it on the chin; so does the mainstream media. She's got a special rucksack of descriptors for Trump ("hateful," "a fraud"), whom she says is pulverizing democratic norms into a paste.
As her book's title implies, Clinton has her own version of what happened in 2016, and she eventually forces readers to reckon with it. She seems at once the best and worst possible person to carry out this assessment. But here, at any rate, is her bottom line:
Comey's letter of Oct. 28, 2016, which notified Congress that he was reopening his investigation into Clinton's use of a private email server to conduct State Department business, effectively ended her candidacy. (She leans heavily on various analyses done by data maestro Nate Silver to make her case.) Combine that letter with the full-saturation media coverage Comey's investigation had been getting all along, and then add to it Russian interference – fake news stories on social media, email hacks – and you have the perfect storm.
Clinton also blames sexism, citing a 2014 Pew Research Center poll that showed just how few voters hoped to see a female president in their lifetime. She blames racism, too, which she considers inseparable from economic anxiety. She believes that voter suppression in swing states, made possible by a ruling by the Supreme Court in 2013, also made a difference. So did the ever-present animus toward her, which remains, she writes, something she doesn't fully understand.
It's hard to say whether readers will buy these explanations. It's possible that a more inspired candidate would have won the Electoral College, simple as that. Or that the Clinton brand was tarnished among black voters. Or that her campaign, despite its extensive networks and deep pockets, failed to detect that something on the ground was wrong. Or that she should have appeared in more rural areas.
We'll be arguing about these questions for decades, surely. But one thing we know for certain: History conspired against Clinton. No non-incumbent Democrat has succeeded a two-term Democratic president since 1836, and 2016 was a year when voters were pining for change.
In spite of that – in spite of everything – Clinton still won the popular vote by almost 3 million. What happened is, it wasn't enough.

Vania is back from a not so long hiatus. kkk. it's been a while since I finally feel the urgency to write something again.
so, it's been a while.
this few past months had been crazy. literally. I get to know more what life is, but still, long way to learn.
I'm not gonna hate the past nor the future, since they are the one whose make the present me.
expectations, reality. whether they are fulfilled or not, those what shape me now.
life is harsh. you've gotta admit that.
life is good. you've gotta admit that.
good people were sent to cheer you up.
bad people were sent to let you learn how to cheer yourself up.
good or bad, you've got to be strong.
good, bad, and the subjectivity of defining them: it all depends on you.
why should be negative if one can choose to be positive?
why should be bad if one can choose to be nice?
everybody just gotta realize this.
I have. How about you? :)
Labels: life, random, thank God

The actor Patrick Stewart, best known- depending on your age- for his roles in the X-men series or the first Star Trek films, recently made a statement praising an Oxford University initiative that is currently exploring the benefits of cannabis as medicine. You see, the 76-year-old has arthritis and cannabis is helping him to cope like nothing else ever has.
He explained:
"Two years ago, in Los Angeles, I was examined by a doctor and given a note which gave me legal permission to purchase, from a registered outlet, cannabis-based products, which I was advised might help the ortho-arthritis in both my hands. This, it would seem, is a genetically-based condition. My mother had badly distorted and painful hands."
He purchased a couple different products and found that using a cannabis spray throughout the day helped his thumb joints, "The spray very quickly evaporates and leaves my hands quite dry, though with a slight burning or tingling sensation, which is not unpleasant. I believe that the ointment and spray have significantly reduced the stiffness and pain in my hands. I can make fists, which was not the case before I began this treatment."
- Grassroots Efforts to Allow Medical Cannabis to Treat Autism
- Perhaps the Best Drug in Medicine, According to Stanford-Trained Doctor
Stewart reports that he's had no negative side effects (of course) and that the alternative, taking NSAID's, Advil, Aleve, and Naproxen- known to be harsh on the liver and to cause acid reflux- wasn't an option he wanted to consider. He went on to say, "This is an important step forward for Britain in a field of research that has for too long been held back by prejudice, fear, and ignorance. I believe this program of research might result in benefits for people like myself as well as millions of others."
We totally agree.
Thankfully, marijuana for medical purposes is legal in 28 of US states, where it can be prescribed to treat a number of conditions and illnesses. Although it is not currently legal in the UK, it's medical use goes largely unenforced.

Voltron is returning to action and sooner than you may think. Speaking during a panel at WonderCon, Voltron: Legendary Defender showrunner Joaquim Dos Santos confirmed that the series would return for a third season in 2017.
Voltron: Legendary Defender is a modern reimagining of the animated Voltron series from the 1980s. The new series, developed by Dreamworks Animation, debuted on Netflix in June 2016 and returned for a second season in January 2017.
Dos Santos and other panelists teased that Prince Lotor, the heir to the Galra Empire, will step up as the new series antagonist now that King Zarkon seems to have been vanquished.
Voltron: Legendary Defender is animated by Studio Mir, the production studio behind The Legend of Korra. Dos Santos, fellow executive producer Lauren Montgomery, and head writer Tim Hedrick all worked together on Avatar: The Last Airbender.

Voltron: Legendary Defender's voice cast includes Steven Yeun (The Walking Dead) as Keith, Jeremy Shada (Adventure Time) as Lance, Bex Taylor-Klaus (Arrow) as Pidge, Josh Keaton (Green Lantern: The Animated Series) as Shiro (formerly "Sven" in the original Voltron series), Tyler Labine (Tucker and Dale vs. Evil) as Hunk, Kimberly Brooks (Mass Effect) as Princess Allura, Rhys Darby (Flight of the Conchords) as Coran, and Neil Kaplan (Transformers: Robots in Disguise) as King Zarkon.
The second season of Voltron: Legendary Defender left many questions unanswered. The fall of Zarkon and the introduction of Prince Lotor means the Voltron Force will have an entirely new and different enemy to challenge in the third season.
Victory did not come without a price, however. Shiro, the Black Paladin who led the Voltron Force, mysterious vanished while locked in combat with King Zarkon. His fellow Paladins only found the Black Paladin's cockpit empty. Now fans are wondering if Voltron: Legendary Defender will follow in in the original Voltron's footsteps by having Keith take over as leader of the Voltron Force and possibly as pilot of the Black Lion, which would also make room for Princess Allura to begin piloting a Lion herself.
That isn't the only mystery still afoot. Keith was revealed to be of Galra blood and now owes allegiance to the Galra resistance group called the Blade of Marmora. Princess Allura discovered that Hagar, the witch who has aided King Zarkon's conquest and created his deadliest monsters, was also an Altean. Flashback's hinted at Zarkon's fall from being the first Black Paladin to becoming a galactic tyrant, and Pidge's family is still imprisoned somewhere by the Galra.
In other words, there's plenty for fans to look forward to when Voltron: Legendary Defender return for Season 3.

Pegasus was a video game system sold in Poland, Serbia, and Bosnia. It was a hardware clone of the Nintendo Famicom aka Nintendo Entertainment System (NES), also called a Famiclone.
|8-bit MOS 6502 1,79 MHz
|5,37 MHz
|256 x 240
|Color Palette
| 25 on screen
(out of 64 possible)
|NTSC ("forced" to PAL standard, 50 Hz refresh rate)
|5-channel mono
| 1 channel noise
3 channels for sounds
| ROM cartridge
(Nintendo 60-pin equivalent)
This particular Nintendo-clone was hugely popular in Poland, Serbia and Bosnia, where it has gained cult status, and is still widely available on auction websites and flea markets.
The system was manufactured in Taiwan by BobMark International, and was built to resemble Nintendo Famicom console. Pegasus, like most known Famicom clones, was compatible with 60-pin Famicom cartridges, and partially compatible with some NES games, which could be played using a special converter. Original Nintendo games weren't popular however, due to raging piracy and lack of officially licensed products on the market. Majority of the games sold with and for the system were cheap pirated copies, manufactured mostly in Russia and China. Games for Pegasus are widely available in Poland to this day, mostly on street markets and in small toy stores.
The typical retail set included the system, two detachable controllers (both with "turbo" buttons, which meant 4 buttons in total; 6-button controllers also existed), a light gun (very similar in design to NES Zapper), power supply and RF cable. Console had a built-in RF modulator, as well as audio-video RCA connectors. The system itself didn't include any built-in games, but was bundled with a pirated multicart labelled "Contra 168 in 1", which contained a few of the best-known NES titles, like Contra, Super Mario Bros. and Tetris, listed multiple times with slight variations. Most of the games had a "trainer" feature, which allowed the player to adjust the number of lives, and even the starting level of the game.
The 8-bit Pegasus was originally released in two versions:
- IQ-502 (much rounder casing with controller ports on the sides of the system and an eject button instead of a lever, manufactured by Micro Genius)
There was also a 16-bit version of the Pegasus system, known as "Power Pegasus 16-bit", which was a clone of Sega Mega Drive.
In the early 1990s, the Pegasus system gained massive popularity in Poland, probably due to the fact that until late 1990s there was no official distributor of Nintendo products in Poland. The Pegasus consoles were mass-marketed by most of the major and smaller electronic stores, where buyers even received warranty cards for the product. Numerous VHS rentals offered an option to rent or exchange Pegasus cartridges, as well as entire systems. Pegasus and its revisions received a wide coverage in Polish video game press. This, along with the system's surprisingly high reliability led to a false claim that Pegasus was an "official" video game system manufactured by a "major" company, and as such was considered by many to be an official Nintendo product. To meet its growing popularity, a number of obviously pirated NES games were reviewed on regular basis by Top Secret, a major Polish video games magazine. Pegasus was even officially advertised in press and on TV. See a few of their ads here [1]. Nintendo took legal actions against the system's importer and distributor, right after officially establishing sales of licensed Nintendo products on Polish market in 1996.

Hey friends! Just a quick update we have here.
Since I've been busy lately trying to connect with my little brother, I've pondered really much on the value of having (and appreciating) education.
Being a college graduate while constantly teaching my younger brother Kinder stuff is no joke. I have to talk real slow. I have to use both my hands in explaining things. I have to make up characters and build a story just to expound what I mean. I need to constantly remind him that sleep is much more important than watching Thomas and Friends. (and) I have to wake up extra early.
Unconsciously, I'm learning myself from my little brother as well. I've learned that reading can actually save your life; Being too colorful is messy; and in life, you don't need a lot of friends to have fun- all you need are a few true ones and you're good to go.
You see, whatever our reason maybe, as long as we live, we can't escape the learning process. And it's a positive change. We learn, re-learn and unlearn. It's even a fun experience. And although not all are privileged to go to school, it's not a hindrance in learning. We learn everywhere.
So while studying or plainly living, we should appreciate the knowledge we get from this world. We may not know everything, but at least we can grasp a piece of it. Just like in kindergarten, we don't really have to take life so seriously. There will always be a lot of errors but we can fix them or at least accept them and do better next time. We don't need to be afraid of making errors. Instead consider them as another opportunity to learn even further.
In life, you have to take fun seriously and appreciate whatever learning you have to live it better. The choices are all up to you. Remember, even kindergartens make choices. As much as possible, just choose the right ones and own up to it.
Much love,
