"Occupants of public offices love power and are prone to abuse it." ~ George Washington
Column by Alex R. Knight III. Exclusive to STR P { margin-bottom: 0.08in; }A:link { } Mankind are a part of nature. So as to avoid the risk of being branded pedagogic, I'll add that the most widely accepted cosmological theory to date is that we are all comprised of stardust – the ultimate Mother Nature. Things in this universe, so far as we know or can tell, just don't get more natural than that. Economics are a purely human invention – the mother of which, Ben...
Original article "A military alliance between Moscow, Tehran and Hezbollah? You're darn tootin', and you can thank Barack Obama and his lunatic regime change plan for that development."
Original article 'Meanwhile, the Russians have shot back by calling out the Washington establishment for their phony efforts to destroy ISIS. After only three days of airstrikes, they claim that ISIS is on the run, while after months of daily airstrikes our military hardly left a dent in ISIS. Logically, this can only mean one thing. Our government never intended to destroy ISIS."
Original article "The media frenzy in the countries of the anti-Assad coalition over the Russian air strikes on Al-Qaeda-linked guerrillas in Syria has made one very significant fact quite clear. Along with the nervous reaction of the US, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and some other countries it is irrefutable proof that the interests of seemingly opposing forces – NATO and radical jihadism – are actually tightly intertwined. And their relations go far beyond the Syrian crisis."
Original article "Overshadowed by its relative smallness and obscured by its relative complexity, the six-month-old civil war in Yemen is the middle child of Middle East conflict."
The Shocking Reality: This Chart Shows Just How Bad Unemployment Is Today Compared to The Great DepressionOriginal article "The collapse that many have suggested will take place at some point in the future is actually happening right here and now. If the charts above are accurate – and we believe they are – then America is already in the throes of its next Great Depression."
Original article "What passes for thinking about the prevention of gun violence is not thinking at all. Thinking (as problem-solving) is a search for means that can be reasonably expected to achieve a given end. By reasonably I mean that supporting arguments can be provided to demonstrate to the satisfaction of reasonable people the connection between the means and ends. What we get from gun-control advocates is nothing like that; instead they operate on the magical belief that uttering certain words --...
Original article "If private property rights are the foundation of a free economy, then it should be clear to all that we have neither. We have something else completely, so we might as well admit it."
Original article "The idea behind 'People's QE' is that central banks would directly fund government spending… and even inject money directly into household bank accounts, if need be. And the idea is catching on. Already the European Central Bank is buying bonds of the European Investment Bank, an E.U. institution that finances infrastructure projects. And the new leader of Britain's Labor Party, Jeremy Corbyn, is backing a British version of this scheme. Ah-ha! That's the...
Original article "A dairy raid just took place on Michael Schmidt's raw dairy farm in Canada. All eyes had been on Schmidt for years as he is a beloved farmer and food freedom activist who was constantly targeted by agents, along with Canadian sheep farmer Montana Jones. Agents confiscated his items and started loading them onto trucks. The power of the people who arrived as soon as they heard, compelled agents to start unloading the items back onto his farm, preventing the would-be raid."
Original article "The new law prohibits state or local law enforcement agencies from receiving armored drones, weaponized, or both; aircraft that are combat configured or combat coded; grenades or similar explosives and grenade launchers; silencers; and 'militarized armored vehicles' from federal military surplus programs. But, as The Guardian reported last fall, handouts of such equipment from the Pentagon aren't the only way the federal government militarizes local police. Department of...
Original article "A single neuron in a normal adult brain likely has more than a thousand genetic mutations that are not present in the cells that surround it, according to new research. The majority of these mutations appear to arise while genes are in active use, after brain development is complete."
Original article "The words people use on social media can reveal hidden meaning to those who know where to look. Linguists have long been fascinated by this notion, connecting a person's words to age, gender, even socioeconomic status. Now computer scientists from the University of Pennsylvania and elsewhere have gone a step further, linking the online behavior of more than 5,000 Twitter users to their income bracket."
Original article "Scientists know a lot about HIV—how it's transmitted, the virus' life cycle, and where it likes to hang out in the body. But they haven't had a good understanding of how it moves between cells in the body, and they have never been able to actually watch it spread. Now a team of researchers from Yale University led a study that recorded the virus infecting the lymph nodes in a mouse to better understand how it infects the body, with the intention of being able to stop...

The area around Lake Como is one of outstanding beauty. Stretching from the Swiss Alps to the Grigne and Legnone ranges, Lake Como is guarded over by spectacular mountain landscapes. Pastel-coloured villages perch along the shorelines and trail up her steep sides. In this part of Italy, you can find anything from the simplest rural dwellings to the palatial villas of the 18th century.
A walk around one of these central lake villages, up a cobbled avenue or across a church square, will convince you to pause for a moment on a sunny bench, to stop for an aperitivo at a sidewalk café or pop into a gelateria for a home-made ice cream.
Whether you want to explore the lake by foot, car or boat, we suggest that you enjoy it leisurely. Choose from one of the numerous activities the area offers, or simply from the comfort of your splendid private villa.
This beautiful Villa sits peacefully on the lakeside of Lake Como in the village of Lezzeno. Bellagio, the Pearl of Lake Como is just 5 km away and the villa also looks out onto the Villa Balbianello, one of the most beautiful villas on the Lake. Lezzeno is the last village on the way from Como to Bellagio. The beautiful properties, churches and caves in this area are definitely worth a visit.
The villa is also just 90 minutes from Malpensa International Airport and is well connected to cities such as Milan and Bergamo. The Lake??s vicinity to Milan has for centuries made it a popular refuge from city life, with many Milanese families constructing summer houses on her shores, a number of whose gardens and interiors can now be visited.
Milan itself opens up an array of possibilities - visit Leonardo Da Vinci���s Last Supper, the Duomo or stroll down the famous shopping street of Via Montenapoleone.
You also have the possibility to explore some of Northern Italy??s other lakes, such as Lake Maggiore in Piedmont to the West or even a day trip into Switzerland, to Lugano that offers another quite different experience. For the cultural enthusiasts, the historical city of Turin in Piedmont is well within reach, as are Venice and Verona heading eastwards.

We stayed at this beautiful property a few years ago during our visit to Orlando. The house was amazing. I remember how breath taking it was walking in. It felt like a movie star's home. The neighborhood was quiet and secure. Didn't hear a peep from the neighbors. We would walk around the neighborhood in the evening, and the lake that the house is on is so beautiful.This property is just couple mile drive from down town Kissimmee, very conveniently located. We just loved staying here. The only negatives about the place were the queen beds. They were quite uncomfortable. I slept on the couch majority of the time because I just couldn't get comfortable. Hopefully they've been replaced since then. All I can is is that we loved our stay so much and loved Bill's wonderful property. When we go back to Florida, we defiantly plan on staying here again and we have strongly recommended this property to friends and family.

No matter what the latest trend of the season may be, turquoise will always be the color of summer. Am I right, or am I right?
I love, love, love statement jewelry, which is just one reason I'm totes digging Audrina Patridge's turquoise bangles. They're simple, but bold and bright at the same time. I also applaud Audrina for using the bracelets' versatility to her advantage and taking them from day to night. (Think: lighter packing on summer vaycay!) When you start your day on the sand or by the pool, bangles make for the perfect accessory to your bikini. Not only are they stylish without being "too much", but they move around on your arm so you won't get a bracelet tan! Audrina's turquoise bracelets really punched up the vibrant colors in her suit.
Once the sun set, the former star of 'The Hills' switched gears and tossed on a grey jersey dress for the evening's festivities. To add a pop of color, she accessorized with the same chunky bracelets.
Love Audrina's turquoise bangles? I found a few bracelets similar to hers that are perfect for mixing and matching!

Loves It: Pageant Girl Beauty Must-Haves Under $25!
The official Miss USA pageant will and broadcasting live from Las Vegas tomorrow! Why do I care about watching a bunch of girls pose on stage in gowns and bikinis, you ask? Because a few months ago, I was going for the Miss New York USA crown, in hopes that I would be the one representing the Empire State on that very stage. (No dice, as I'm sure you already figured out, but hey, it was an unbelievable and fun experience!)
Let me start by saying, the amount of time, money and preparation that goes into getting ready for a pageant is uncanny. You have to step up your work out routine big time, perfect your cat walk and prepare answers for every possible interview question. Then you have to buy an evening gown, a stunning new interview outfit, new shoes, makeup, jewelry, a pageant coach (yeah...I skipped that step.) Pageantry is not a cheap or easy sport!
But if you're going to enter a beauty pageant, it's important to remember that it is a beauty pageant after all. You have to be willing to give it your all and do everything you can to look your very best. But that doesn't mean you have to break the bank on your beauty regimen. As a 24-year-old trying to make it as a writer, I had to find ways to measure up on the big Miss New York stage without blowing through my savings.
Whether you're thinking about entering a pageant or just curious about the behind-the-scenes preparation, here are five of my favorite pageant girl beauty must-haves that help you feel and look your best on stage. Ready for the best part? They're all drugstore buys under $25!
Press-On Manicure
Broadway Nails Real Life Petites Real Short Pink Glue-On Nail Kit Petite Length
$6.49 by Broadway Nails at Walgreens
On pageant weekend, you are moving around non-stop. Hours of rehearsals, hair curling and getting glammed up multiple times a day is not only tiring, but it really takes a toll on your manicure. Having chipped nails on stage—or even worse, when you're shaking hands with the judges for your interview—is a big pageant no-no. That's why I love these glue-on tips. Not only are they far more wallet-friendly than a salon mani or tip set, but they won't chip on you, and the french manicure looks totally natural. Every time I wear these, someone always tells me how great my nails look—one girl even asked me where I get my nails done! (She was in awe when I told her "CVS".) The petite size (above) is perfect for girls with tiny nails and short nail beds like mine.
Here's a tip: Bring the little bottle of nail glue and the extra nails that come in the package with you to the dressing room, just in case a nail pops off before you hit the stage!
False Eyelashes
Ardell Fashion Lashes Strip - Black (105)
Even though the judges are looking for "natural beauty", don't be afraid of false eyelashes! They accentuate what you already have, which is extremely important when you're up in the limelight, trying to shine brighter than the girl in front of you. The Adrell Fashion Lashes are my favorite brand—they brighten up your eyes without looking fake and tacky. The package comes with glue and an applicator to help you press them on just right. I will suggest, however, practicing putting them on a few times before pageant weekend because they do take some getting used to. Going for only $3.69, I also love the price!
Teeth Whitening Strips
Crest 3D White Whitestrips Vivid - 15 Count
$24.99 at Target
Smiling is one of the single most important things to remember when you're in a beauty pageant. You need to look like you're having fun up on the stage, or the judges will ask themselves why you're there—in which case, say goodbye to the crown and sash! A few weeks prior to the competition, get your smile pageant ready with some teeth whitening strips. When you know your pearly whites are in tiptop shape, you'll feel that much more confident and you'll want to smile more!
While my roommate and I did our hair and makeup before each night's competition, we'd both put on last minute Crest Whitestrips—that way, we both couldn't talk at the same time, and we'd feel like our smiles were a few watts brighter.
Tanning Foam
Jergens Natural Glow Foaming Daily Moisturizer, Fair to Medium Skin Tones
$8.49 by Jergens at drugstore.com
You can pass up dessert and do fifty sets of crunches a day, but I know I don't feel totally swimsuit ready unless I have a great tan. The Miss New York USA Pageant began the day after Thanksgiving (I know, a sick joke, right?!) so naturally, my skin was a pretty bright shade of pale. I knew I needed to get some color, but I refuse to fake-'n-bake in a tanning bed because I'm petrified of wrinkles and cancer. A spray tan is another option, but those can be pretty pricey—and pretty scary, unless they're done well.
This tinted foaming moisturizer by Jergens is a budget-pageant-girl's best friend. After you shower, lather your entire body up with the tanning foam. I started building up my tan about two weeks before the pageant—once the competition was only a few days away, I lathered up twice a day to get a little bronzer. Jergens also makes this tinted moisturizer in cream form, but I prefer the foam because it's less likely to streak.
Fashion Tape
$8.99 by Hollywood Fashion Tape at Bliss
When you're on stage concentrating on where to walk, what to say, how to pose and who to smile at, the last thing you want to be worried about is a wardrobe malfunction. Fashion tape is a pageant weekend must-have. I used it on every one of my competition outfits—I taped my evening gown to my chest, my sequined belt to my bikini bottom and my bra to the shirt of my interview ensemble. The judges want to see your winning smile and personality—not your Victoria's Secret undies.

Loves It: Jergens Natural Glow Tanning Foam
It's now late May, and even thought the weather here in NYC is still a bit chilly (ugh!), I have retired my heavy clothes for the season and in exchange, have busted out my bandage skirts and mini dresses.
We all love summer fashion. But with the sunshine and pool parties also comes the inevitable: warmer weather + tinier clothes = much more skin showing.
Not that I'm complaining! But at the same time: cold weather + jeans all winter = I'm really pasty white.
Honestly, let's get real—cute summer clothes look a heck of a lot cuter when you're sporting a glowing tan. But when you haven't seen seen the sun in months, maintaining sunkissed skin is a lot easier said than done. You have to start somewhere and bridge that seasonal white-to-bronze gap. And that's where tanning lotion comes in!
Jergens Natural Glow Foaming Daily Moisturizer
I first discovered this amazing product, Jergens Natural Glow Foaming Daily Moisturizer, during my brief pageantry stint back in November. Let me tell you folks, pageants are no joke—they take a ton of preparation in many arenas. Increased cardio sessions? Check. Cut down on chocolate? Check. (Okay, I cheated on that one.) Buy a pretty blue dress? Check! But if I was going to be walking down a runway in a bikini, I knew I also needed a glowing tan to look and feel my best—something that most New York residents don't have in the dead of winter. No doubt, resembling Casper's doppleganger like I did wasn't going to win me the Miss New York USA crown.
Hitting up the tanning bed for repeated fake-'n-bake sessions was also out of the question for me. (Hey, I want to be a bronzed goddess, but cancer and wrinkles in ten years? No thanks!) Weighing my options, I considered getting a spray tan. (Sidenote: at that point in my time, I hadn't yet tried spray tans—I LOVE them now!) But they can be quite expensive, and I kept thinking, "Oh God, what if I come out looking orange and streaky?" I certainly didn't want to debut a pale body on stage, but the Snooki-tiger hybrid look isn't exactly a happy-times alternative.
So, off to Target I went to pick up some tanning lotion. The Jergens Natural Glow Foaming Daily Moisturizer summoned me from the shelves for three reasons: 1) it won an Allure beauty award, 2) it was only $7.99 and 3) how awesome does a "foam moisturizer" sound?
I gave the tanning foam a try and I was immediately sold. After a few days of use, my tan accumulated naturally, and when pageant weekend finally arrived, my full-body tan had built up quite nicely and I was wonderfully bronzed! I felt like a million bucks on stage and ever since then I've used the stuff religiously to give my skin that extra healthy glow. The moisturizer also comes in a cream formula, but I really enjoy the foam because it's super light and easy to rub in, so you don't get crazy streaks. It's also scent-free, so no need to worry about smelling like chemicals.
Until the sun decides to come out for good and warm things up so I can lounge by my pool, I will definitely continue to lather up. Hey— fake it 'till ya make it!

Loves It: Get SJP's Natural Makeup Look
Sarah Jessica Parker's face was flawless on the red carpet at the New York City Ballet Spring Gala last night. Her natural-toned makeup was done perfectly—it's the exact look I'm almost always going for. And believe it or not, her cosmetic look is super-easy to do yourself.
Here's a start-to-finish guide on how to do your make up like SJP's. I even listed a bunch of my favorite products to help get you started:
Start with a makeup primer to smooth and prepare your skin to evenly take your foundation.
Smashbox Photo Finish Foundation Primer SPF 15 With Dermaxyl Complex To Go
Then, cover your face with a tinted foundation to even out your skin tone and give your skin a naturally sun-kissed look. I personally love anything mineral-based to prevent that greasy, cakey feeling—especially now that the warmer weather is here.
Bare Escentuals Tinted Mineral Veil in Mirrored Compact with Buff & Go Brush
$29.50 by Bare Escentuals at Bloomingdale's
Pucker up and brush a bit of color on the apples of your cheeks. For spring and summer, opt for a blush in a coral-rose hue.
Le Metier de Beaute Creme Fresh Tints
$28.00 by LeMetier de Beaute at Neiman Marcus
To make your eyes really pop like SJP's, use eye shadow colors that are the opposite of your eye color (i.e., if your eyes are blue, reach for brown eye shadows.) Blend the shadow upwards towards your brows for a bright look that opens up your eyes. I've been using this eyeshadow palette since sixth grade—hey, if it works, it works!
Almay Intense I-color Play Up Eye Shadow
To get SJP's glow, lightly brush on a neutral, mineral-based powder that has a hint of shimmer over your shadow.
Bare Minerals Eye Color - Cultured Pearl
$13.00 at BareEscentuals
Because Sarah Jessica went natural with her shadow, she could use black eyeliner on the top and bottom for a bolder look.
Almay Intense I-color Eyeliner
Swiping a lengthening mascara on her lashes helped give her those sexy cat eyes. CoverGirl mascara is by far the best!
CoverGirl LashBlast Length Water Resist Mascara, Black Brown 835
$7.79 at drugstore.com
Keep your eyes the center of attention and go for a natural pout. Sarah Jessica used a light lip liner on her bottom lip...
L'Oreal Colour Riche Lip Liner, Au Naturale
$8.48 by L'Oreal at drugstore.com
...and finished off with a nude lip gloss to get that shine.

Loves It: Kristin Cavallari's Summer Look
I am absolutely obsessed with Kristin Cavallari's summer outfit!
Last week, The Hills star struck a pose at the premiere of the Something Borrowed movie wearing a super-adorable strapless sundress by Shoshanna. The bright white dress looked stunning against her glowing tan (well, I'd be glowing too if I was debuting a paper weight engagement ring that big) and her beach-wavy blonde hair. My favorite part of the dress is the colorful stone detail on the bodice.
Kristin tied the outfit together perfectly with a pair of gorgeous magenta platform sandals from her own ShoeDazzle collection. Any color shoe would have worked since the dress has a stone in every hue, but bold pink would have been my first choice, too. (Well, anything in pink is always my first choice!) Her whole look is bright, flirty and simple, but that's what I love about it.
So, Kristin—can my "something borrowed" be your entire outfit for my trip to Puerto Rico that I just booked?

Loves It: Princess Catherine's Wedding Day Fragrance
So this is how you lure in a prince!
The world speculated for months over the Duchess of Cambridge's secret wedding dress designer, and we all gushed on the wedding day when we finally saw the stunning Alexander McQueen gown.
But here's something spectators couldn't tell by watching the April 29th nuptials—what was Catherine's perfume of choice?
According to Clarence House, the royal bride spritzed on White Gardenia Petals by Illuminum before walking down the aisle. The floral scent is described as delicate and light, containing notes of cocoanut, jasmine and amber wood. The selling price is £70, or about $145.
Before the Royal Wedding, Illuminum was a little-known British brand. But as soon as the news broke, bottles of Kate's chosen scent sold out as fast as shoppers could grab them off the shelves. A two-week waiting list has already formed.
Illuminum spokesman Michael Donovan reveals that orders for the fragrance have been placed from countries all over the world, but most of the customers are from the U.S.
Check out my article on Thirdage.com where I dished on Kate's special prince pheromones perfume!

Loves It: How To Wear Sequins For Spring
Sequins were a big hit this past winter season, and it looks like they're coming back for round two. At New York Fashion Week, big name designers like Pamella Roland, Zang Toi and Venexiana featured tons of sparkly looks on the runways.
But right now, we're definitely not concerned about next-winter-wear. We want to talk spring clothing! And I know what you're thinking—that sequins are made for New Year's Eve and holiday parties. Well luckily, that's not true at all—and thank goodness, because sequins are one of my absolute favorite trends. There are plenty of ways to work this glitzy, versatile look for spring.
Sure, sequins make a pretty bold statement. But that doesn't mean you should be too nervous to try this season's trend. As long as you keep a few Dos and Don'ts in mind, embellishments can glam up your outfit in all the right ways this spring.
DO Balance Out Your Look
MICHAEL Michael Kors Sequin-Front Tank
$130.00 at Michael Kors
Sequins are like built-in jewelry—they make a statement all on their own. Let the embellishments speak for themselves by making them the focus of your outfit. Then, work in more casual pieces to create balance. For example, pair a sequined tunic or blazer with light-wash or white skinny jeans.
Gryphon Crocheted Sequin-Striped Miniskirt
$250.00$105.00 at Bloomingdale's
Or, if your miniskirt has glitz, tone it down a bit with a plain T-shirt, tank and/or cardigan.
DON'T Wear Just Black
Gradient Sequin Mini Dresses by La Femme
$374.00 by La Femme at eDressMe
Don't get me wrong—black sequined pieces are lovely. All I'm saying is, don't be afraid of other shades. Embellishments in neutral metallic shades like silver, bronze and rose gold are all chic options. Clear sequins are also a light, subtle choice for spring. Or, if you really want to walk into a room and turn heads, be bold and reach for a colorful, sequined minidress like the one above.
DO Accessorize With Sequined Pieces
$79.00 at stefaniBags.com
A dress dripping with sparkles isn't your only option. If sequined clothing is a bit too much for your taste, try accessorizing with embellishments instead. A sparkling bracelet or long necklace is just enough to add that glamorous touch. A sequined clutch is the perfect way to jazz up any outfit for date night or cocktails with your girlfriends.
$240.00 by Bourne at Nordstrom
Other fun alternatives—wear an embellished belt over your favorite dress or cardigan, or slip on a pair of sequined heeled sandals, like the ones pictured above.
DON'T Be Afraid of Patterns
Yoana Baraschi Vida Floral Sequin Dress
$320.00 by Yoana Baraschi at Neiman Marcus
Believe it or not, patterns and sequins on the same piece actually make for a beautiful friendship. For spring, keep bright colors and florals in mind.
Nanette Lepore Sequin Mini Skirt
$298.00$207.99 by Nanette Lepore at Saks Fifth Avenue
For something with a touch of sophistication, try on this block-pattern embellished mini. SO cute!
DO Take 'Em to the Beach
Beach Sexy® Ombré Sequin Triangle Top
$38.00 by Beach Sexy at Victoria's Secret
Maybe you're going on Spring Break (lucky), or maybe you live somewhere warm year-round (luckier)—either way, the beach is the perfect place to show off your best sequined attire. In my opinion, you can't go wrong in a glitzy bikini.
$58.00$49.00 at Victoria's Secret
For a subtler way to show off your assets whilst sun-and-sand status, slip on this pretty beach cover-up that has just the right amount of glitz.
DON'T Overdo It!
L8ter Top, Sleeveless Open Front Sequin Vest
$34.00$12.99 at Macy's
The best way to ensure your outfit doesn't cross over into disco ball-esque territory is to keep it to one sequined piece per-outfit. That way, you're wearing the trend—you don't want the trend outshine you!

Loves It: Color Club Turquoise Nail Polish!
Even though it's still freezing in New York (there is SNOW in Friday's forecast! I don't even want to talk about it...) it is technically springtime. Wearing sundresses and cute short sleeve T-shirts is currently out of the question, unless I wish to develop hypothermia. Thus, I have turned to bright nail polish colors to brighten up my spirits.
I received this mini bottle of Color Club Professional Nail Lacquer in a goodie bag at Fashion Week, and have been dying to try it out. Well, I finally gave myself a mani, and I am in love with this color! The swatch doesn't have an official name yet, but I would describe it as Tiffany-Box Turquoise. It's perfect for gals like me who love fun, bright colors for spring...and who definitely won't be receiving any real Tiffany boxes any time soon... #bummer.
So, I'm really into putting together outfits in my mind that I cannot wear yet...I own an adorable yellow polka-dotted sundress that I can't wait to rock. This turquoise hue on my digits will make an especially playful statement against that dress, especially since I own an oversized bag in almost the exact same color. Once the temperatures, well, double what they are now, and I can actually sport the dress, I'll definitely have to redo my nails in this color and make my daydream-outfit become a reality.
Another plus: the polish it totally long-lasting. This is a bold statement coming from me, the girl who could sit in a chair and stare at a brick wall, and her nail polish job would be in shambles by Day 2. This manicure still looked almost flawless by Day 5. Color Club, your polish definitely gets an A+ in my book!

Loves It: MAKE UP FOR EVER's Un-Retouched Ads
The Paris-based professional cosmetic brand, MAKE UP FOR EVER, has launched their first-ever un-retouched ad campaign today. Yes, you read that correctly—these print and online ads have not been digitally altered, and have been notarized to prove it.
The ads, which highlight the brand's HD Invisible Cover Foundation, portray a gorgeous woman snapping a photo of herself. The model wears the foundation in the unretouched ads to prove that it really does live up to its promise—the ability to give you a photo-ready look every time. How is this possible, you ask? This miraculous oil-free makeup has a soft-focus effect that was specifically created to mask imperfections and give you a flawless complexion, even behind the unforgiving light of high-def technology.
No Photoshop needed!
MAKE UP FOR EVER's HD Invisible Cover Foundation comes in 26 different shades to match all skin tones. It's available exclusively at Sephora, retailing at $40.
Check out my article on ThirdAge.com where we broke the news!

Loves It: My Fave Lip Colors
I firmly believe that there is no such thing as having too much lip gloss. There are just so many different options—lip plumper, lip stain, lip gloss or lipstick, shimmer, shine...then there's choosing a color (...andddd this is why I can't close my makeup drawer.)
I usually keep six or seven lip products in my bag at a time because my go-to-gloss changes with my mood and outfit. (No joke!) I would argue that I tend to go brighter than your average person—for instance, wearing a bright red or hot pink lipstick for a night out in the city doesn't intimidate me!
Above are just a few of my many favorite lip colors!

WASHINGTON, March 12: The US State Department on Monday described the government's action against Chief Justice Iftikhar Mohammad Chaudhry as Pakistan's `internal matter' and refused to comment on the development. "We won't be offering any comment on that. It is an internal matter," a State Department official told Dawn when asked for comments.

First off I'd like to say hello to everyone. Not sure if this the right spot on the forum but since I'm on the front range (Loveland to be exact), I figure this is where I'll be poking around mostly.
My name is Eric and I managed Loveland Cycle n' Fitness about 10yrs back, then started a family and had to get a real job, etc., etc., etc. My kids and I have been hitting the BMX track and skateparks in the past years and just got my oldest two mtn. bikes so I'm looking forward to hitting some trails again.
Hope to meet up with some of y'all.
Peace and God bless,

Deborah Watkins Bruner, RN, PhD, FAAN, is an internationally renowned researcher and according to the Blue Ridge Institute, is the number one NIH funded nurse researcher in the world for two years running from 2012 to 2013 and from 2013 to 2014. Her work and leadership in developing and establishing Patient Reported Outcomes (PROs) as highly significant outcome metrics in national clinical trials has changed clinical practice guidelines for patients treated with bone metastasis and for cancer patient symptom management of several treatment-related symptoms including sexual dysfunction. Dr. Bruner completed her doctoral degree in nursing research, with a focus on outcomes research, at the University of Pennsylvania and has been continuously and well-funded for the past 16 years. Dr. Bruner's teaching focuses on quantitative research methods, randomized clinical trials, health disparities and the acute and late effects of cancer along with symptom management and comparative effectiveness. She is the first and currently only nurse to serve as Principal Investigator of one of the National Cancer Institute (NCI) sponsored National Community Oncology Research Programs (NCORP) and is the Deputy Chair for Publications of one of the national clinical trials cooperative groups, the NRG Oncology Group. Dr. Bruner has worked for over two decades with the Radiation Oncology Therapy Group (RTOG) and the Gynecologic Oncology Group (GOG) as Chair of the RTOG Health Services Research and Outcomes (HSRO) Committee and a founding member of the RTOG and GOG quality of life committees. She conducted RTOG's first clinical trial incorporating quality of life. In the area of recruitment and health disparities, Dr. Bruner has successfully employed the scientific evaluation of social marketing, a method novel to cancer research, and leads multifaceted studies of the behavioral aspects of human subject recruitment to research trials. Dr. Bruner has published over 130 peer-reviewed journal articles, and 16 books/book chapters. She has served as editor-in-chief of one book and three editions of an ONS Guidelines Manual for radiation oncology nursing. Her articles have been published in a number of leading journals including the Journal of the America Medical Association, the New England Journal of Medicine, the Journal of Clinical Oncology, International Journal of Radiation Oncology, Biology, Physics, Cancer and the Oncology Nursing Forum. Dr. Bruner's research expertise has led to recognition and high impact scientific leadership through multiple national appointments including: serving as co-chair of the NCI Symptom Management and Health Related Quality of Life Committee, tasked with review, approval and prioritization of the nation's NCI-sponsored symptom management and quality of life clinical trials portfolio. She was appointed by the Director of the NCI to the Clinical Trials Advisory Committee (CTAC) and served on subcommittees of CTAC, the Clinical Trials Working Group (CTWG) Evaluation Working Group, and the National Clinical Trials Network (NCTN) Working Group. She was also co-chair of the 2011 NCI-sponsored Clinical Trials Planning meeting on Patient Reported Outcomes, which developed recommendations for core patient reported outcomes to be assessed across all cancer clinical trials (JNCI, In Press). Finally, she has been honored with University Awards in research and mentorship; National Awards such as the Excellence in Radiation Oncology, Oncology Nursing Society/Varian Nursing Award and the Linda Hunter Quality of Life Lecture, Society of Gynecologic Nurse Oncologists; and International Awards such as Best New Investigator, International Society for Pharmacoeconomics & Outcomes Research, Poster Presentation. She has also been recognized by the global community through her invitational lectures in Canada, England, Israel, Ireland, Belgium, Australia, and Jordan. She has recently been a guest lecturer at the University of Peking and the University of Nanjing, China.
Dr. Bruner's program of research focuses on patient reported outcomes (PROs) and symptom management across cancer sites with a focus on pelvic tumors, preferences and utilities and comparative effectiveness for cancer therapies, and health disparities in recruitment to clinical trials. Her methodological work in PRO development and value added of PROs in clinical research, and her work in sexuality after cancer, are internationally recognized as demonstrated by her national and international invitational lectures and panel participation. Dr. Bruner is the only nurse to be awarded a grant from the National Cancer Institute to lead a large interdisciplinary team as Principal Investigator, of a national cancer clinical trials cooperative group, the Radiation Therapy Oncology Group (RTOG) Community Clinical Oncology Program (CCOP). RTOG, a consortium of over 360 institutions in the U.S. and Canada involving over 1,000 physicians, nurses, physicists, and statisticians, is focused on the study of radiation therapy (RT)-related symptom amelioration, quality of life and comparative effectiveness. The RTOG CCOP accrued over 2,000 patients to cancer clinical trials in the last five years. Dr. Bruner's research in RTOG led to a paradigm shift from a historically medically dominated focus on survival and toxicity, to a patient-centered, nurse led, bio-behavioral focus that includes PROs as primary or secondary outcomes in clinical trials. Dr. Bruner conducted the first PRO study in RTOG and found a disturbing discordance of up to 45% between patient and clinician reports of prevalence and severity of subjective symptoms. Building on these data, Dr. Bruner has been developing methods and leading national efforts to incorporate PROs as standard measures in clinical trials for the past 25 years. Her work has provided the highest level I evidence for clinical practice guidelines. For example, in a randomized trial of palliative RT for bone metastasis, she included a patient reported pain measure and found 1 8Gy treatment provided equivalent pain control to 10 treatments up to 30Gy. There were no differences in objective narcotic relief or quality of life between arms with significant cost savings on the single treatment arm. Data from this trial was used in the Palliative Radiotherapy for Bone Metastases: An ASTRO Evidence-Based Guideline. Further, Dr. Bruner's work correlated women's report of sexual function after pelvic RT for gyn cancers with a novel measure of vaginal physiologic changes. Changes in sexual function are one of the most prevalent, serious and understudied long term survivorship issues in these patients. The Vaginal Sound, developed by Dr. Bruner, is a reliable measure of vaginal length tested in a national study, and with it she reported on one of the few studies to quantify RT-related vaginal morbidity in women treated with vaginal brachytherapy (VBT) and correlate changes with PROs. She has documented that women treated with VBT have a shorter than normal vaginal length and that regular use of a dilator is significantly associated with a decreased risk for vaginal toxicity, but that adherence to dilator use is poor. This led to her randomized trial assessing enhanced education/counseling for dilator adherence improvements by 20%. The body of this work has been used in evidence based guidelines for nurses in the Oncology Nursing Society, Manual for Radiation Oncology Nursing Practice and Education, and cited in the 2010 Cochran review of vaginal dilator use as well as in the recent International Guidelines on Vaginal Dilation after Pelvic Radiotherapy.

Saint Louis (PRWEB) July 23, 2014
Five years ago, when the SSM St. Louis Fetal Care Institute opened its doors there were few options for babies diagnosed with a medical condition before birth. They had to wait for delivery, or travel across the country for innovative fetal therapies. Since then, nearly 1,000 families have chosen the St. Louis Fetal Care Institute to care for their babies in the womb, and the team has performed more than 300 fetal surgeries and interventions.
"A number of the babies we see are facing life-threatening situations. Using the most advanced technology and experienced team we are able to give many of them a chance at life outside the womb," said Mike Vlastos, MD, the director of the St. Louis Fetal Care Institute.
The Fetal Care Institute brings together the best pediatric and maternal-fetal specialists from SSM Cardinal Glennon Children's Medical Center, SSM St. Mary's Health Center and Saint Louis University School of Medicine. This team of experts provides advanced diagnoses, fetal monitoring, and minimally invasive (laser based) and open fetal surgery. Fetal surgeries and deliveries are performed at St. Mary's Health Center. When the baby is facing a very high-risk delivery, cesarean sections and EXIT (Ex Utero Intrapartum Treatment) deliveries are performed at Cardinal Glennon.
"Beyond offering fetal surgery, it is our goal to provide a compassionate support system for all of our families while arming them with the knowledge they need to make the best decisions for themselves and their babies," said Katie Francis, CPNP, the program coordinator for the St. Louis Fetal Care Institute.
With less than twenty comprehensive fetal care centers in the United States, the St. Louis Fetal Care Institute is one of the most experienced centers performing fetal spina bifida repair. They are the only center in the country performing life-saving minimally invasive laser surgery

In her most affirming and life-changing book yet, Dr. Harriet Lerner teaches us how to restore love and connection with the people who matter the most. In The Dance of Connection we learn what to say (and not say) when:
- We need an apology, and the person who has harmed us won't apologize or be accountable.
- We don't know how to take a conversation to the next level when we feel desperate.
- We feel worn down by the other person's criticism, negativity, or irresponsible behavior.
- We have been rejected or cut off, and the other person won't show up for the conversation.
- We are struggling with staying or leaving, and we don't know our "bottom line."
- We are convinced that we've tried everything -- and nothing changes.
Filled with compelling personal stories and case examples, Lerner outlines bold new "voice lessons" that show us how to speak with honor and personal integrity, even when the other person behaves badly.
Whether we're dealing with a partner, parent, sister, or best friend, The Dance of Connection teaches us how to navigate our most important relationships with clarity, courage, and joyous conviction.less

- For the 1941 Abbott & Costello film, see In the Navy (film).
"In the Navy" is a song recorded by American disco group Village People released in 1979. It was the last top 10 hit for the group in the United States.
Background and writing[edit]
After the enormous commercial success of their 1978 hit "Y.M.C.A." which unexpectedly became the unofficial hymn and powerful advertising tool for the YMCA, the group took on another national institution, the United States Navy. The Navy contacted group manager Henri Belolo to use the song in a recruiting advertising campaign for television and radio. Belolo gave the rights for free on the condition that the Navy help them shoot the music video. Less than a month later, Village People arrived at the San Diego Naval base where the Navy provided them with the frigate USS Reasoner, several aircraft, and the crew of the ship (with the stipulation that they couldn't dance).[1] The Navy later canceled the campaign after protests erupted over using taxpayer money for a music video of a controversial group.[citation needed]
In a landmark ruling in 2012, the United States District Court for the Southern District of California ruled that under the Copyright Act of 1976, Victor Willis (Village People's "Cop"/"Naval officer" and co-composer) can terminate his copyrights to songs written by him and granted to the publishers Can't Stop Productions and Scorpio Music."[2] Willis now owns (recaptured) 33% of his songs.[3]

In popular culture[edit]
- The Spanish group Parchís covered this song in 1979, and it became one of their most popular songs. The cover was titled En la armada, sung in Spanish, and covered again by other groups with the same lyrics of Parchís. It is possibly the first cover of the song, and definitely the first in Spanish.
- Captain Jack rerecorded a cover of the song and it was parodied by Billy Connolly as "In the Brownies".
- The song is performed during a sketch on The Muppet Show's fifth season, in which Viking Pigs raid an unnamed village whilst singing the song.
- Japanese female pop duo Pink Lady had a top 10 hit in Japan in 1979 with a cover of "In the Navy" titled "Pink Typhoon" (see the Japanese Wikipedia article), which substituted the words "Pink lady" ("Pin-ku re-di") for "In the navy" in the song's chorus and "I want you, you want Mie/I want you, you want Kei" (referring to group members Mie Nemoto and Kei Masuda) for "They want you as a new recruit."
- The song is played in The Simpsons episode "Simpson Tide," referred as an "ancient sea shanty." It is also briefly sung by The Sea Captain in the episode "Mr. Plow".
- In the game Grand Theft Auto III, there is a gay pedestrian who will occasionally say "In the navy!"
- The finale of the 2000 Leslie Nielsen comedy 2001: A Space Travesty features a performance of "In the Navy" sung by impersonators of the Three Tenors.
- During the credits of the 1996 comedy film Down Periscope, the Village People are joined by the film's cast, led by Tom Dodge (Kelsey Grammer), Emily Lake (Lauren Holly) and Marty Pascal (Rob Schneider) in an updated music video of the song aboard the protagonists' submarine, the USS Pampanito (named the Stingray in the film), a diesel Balao-class submarine from World War II.
- The Israeli pop-rock band "Tislam" has a very famous line in one of their greatest hits, "Tnu Li Rockn'Roll" (Give me Rock 'n' Roll), that says "Hoshavt oti Ba'cheder etmol ad meuchar, lishmo'a Indeonezi shel Anshei Hakfar" (You sat me down in the room yesterday evening, to hear "Indinezi" by The Village People). This line was written after the songwriter, Yair Nitzani, was a DJ at a club where people kept asking him to put on the song "Indonezi" (meaning "Indonesian") because they misheard the real name of the song. This is an example of a mondegreen, the mishearing of a phrase such that it acquires a new meaning.
- The Japanese singer Teppei Shibuya also covers the song on his CD "On-Demand", this version being a full translation of the original song, except for the chorus.
- Old Navy had a radio spot containing the lyric "We want you in a new swimsuit," sung to the tune of the song.
- Scottish metal band Alestorm released a cover of this song on a limited 7" single.
