Reviews for Survival and Love |
Seth McGury chapter 2 . 5/2/2016 Oh man! This is amazing! It's like what if they knew, and what if they think negatively at Micah. Poor Micah... Expecting More! |
Guest chapter 2 . 7/2/2015 Give us an AU story of Micah someday! |
Guest chapter 2 . 1/13/2015 Hi! I love how you give Micah a bit of personality which is hard to do when you're writing in first person. I know other people have probably begged you to finish it before but PLEASE FINISH IT OR AT LEAST HAVE MICAH REALISE HE'S IN LOVE WITH RAVEN OR SOMETHING! |
Banghg chapter 2 . 5/18/2013 Great job, I hope you follow. |
Banghg chapter 1 . 5/18/2013 It's really good. |
LittleKing9512 chapter 2 . 11/8/2012 This is a good fic. I like it. I can't wait for the next chapter. I can understand Micah's OOCness. I would probably be mad if the village I had lived at threw me out just because I was half-monster. Being a half-monster would be epic. I would want to be half-wolf or half-goblin or half-dragon. |
Festus Flare chapter 2 . 10/22/2012 I'm guessing that Micah doesn't know about Raven being a beautiful phoenix? Because if he does, WOW! He's in for a treat! |
TheSmirkingSnake chapter 2 . 10/17/2012 Heeeeyyyy Theeere! This is a very interesting idea, always wondered why no one else had thought it up yet. I am a big fan of Alternate Universe stories, or whatever else you want to call them! And you my friend, have my attention, keep it up! And so, The Snake slinks into the mist, with a kindly smirk |
Taylor chapter 2 . 10/1/2012 I like this I can't wait for the next chapter |
Mike AZ 2 chapter 2 . 10/1/2012 Cute chapter, it was kinda funny in places. I think how the wolves raided Micah's shelter because of something Gaius did could've been fleshed out, but that's my opinion. I won't demand an update, but I am looking forward to another chapter. |
ThatRandomBystander chapter 2 . 9/30/2012 YAY! New chapter! The way that Micah befriended the wolves made me laugh. :D How did Gaius manage to get the wolves to attack Micah? I don't actually find Micah to be OOC, I like your interpretation of Micah. Also are you gonna include the desert camp? Update soon :D - Angel - |
Festus Flare chapter 1 . 9/15/2012 What's funny is that whenever you turn into a Wooly in-game and talk to people, they don't really act scared at all. It's real funny that in this fic, they're all going to kill him. Seems a little OOC for everyone, other than Raven. WHOOT Go Raven _ |
AmberJF chapter 1 . 8/31/2012 Oh, how I desperatley wish there was more! I adore this story! Although I find it hard to believe Micah would suddenly become cold to everyone so fast but at the same time it adds to the story. LUV IT! |
kryuu27 chapter 1 . 7/28/2012 i womder, when the update will be uploaded? I really like this story |
Luckenhaft chapter 1 . 6/12/2012 it is a good story. i like it. |

Musee des enfants
This morning we went to the Children's Museum with Alice and Estelle's Matante Janette. Since we were up bright and early, we were the first customers to explore for the day. The museum allows little ones to explore all kinds of career paths.
Working in the casse-croute.
A piece of cake for mum, a donut for Janette and a burger for dad, please!
Listening intently at school
(guess who the teacher was?)
Digging at the construction site.
That will be $62.48 please, Janette.
Pay up!

Geologists need not apply
The price of metals being 1/3 what they were just last spring mining companies are making tough decisions to stay afloat. Exploration is traditionally viewed as a capital expense with no short term income and is therefore targetted for cut-backs.
We just had a round of layoffs at our office and have lost some good friends. We don't expect any more cuts for now.
All the best to you guys. We'll be thinking of you.

Weight Watchers
It has been about six weeks since we've had a chance to weigh the little star, what with snowstorms and the Christmas holidays. So we were pleasantly surprised to find out yesterday that our skinny little girl is now a lanky 10 lbs 3 oz!
Alice and Gradad demonstrate the completed floor puzzle that is Alice's new passion. In fact, we will be visiting her friend Joellie this coming weekend, who is a puzzling demon, so Alice wants to be up to snuff with her piecing technique!

Cookie time!
I can't see in the bowl, but I think I'm stirring something...
Such concentration
I'm ready for a job icing donuts at Timmie's!
Dad reaping the rewards...
Snow Day
Last week we were blessed with another big dumping of snow, so the girls stayed home to play...
Making a swimming pool with blocks.
Alice wanted to do some dry-land training for her bubblin'.
Washing the food for supper?
No... Getting ready to do some potato painting!
Caught on camera!
Estelle has been perfecting her beautiful smile for a few weeks, and we've been able to catch a few on camera. Now it's up to you to decide which one to save to your desktop!

Cooing baby
(we haven't been able to post any videos since buying the new camera... seems the files are just too large. This short one seems to be good!)

Does this look like swimming?
We had planned on taking Alice to the pool over the holidays, and since today was the last before we get back to our routine, we suited her up... but the pool was closed! So Guy and Alice came home and played in the snow instead.
She is wearing her swimsuit under there

Energy-Storage Startup LightSail Plots Long-Term Game Plan
Barbara Haislip for the Wall Street Journal: Few industries are more daunting for entrepreneurs these days than clean energy.
Developing the technology and hardware is expensive, and setbacks are common. Even if all goes well, getting a product to market can take a decade or more. Most venture-fund investors, meanwhile, want a quicker payout.
Danielle Fong, co-founder and chief scientist of LightSail Energy, is trying to keep investors happy while working toward some ambitious clean-energy goals. Her company's aim, she says, "is to produce the world's cleanest and most economical energy-storage system" through a technology that uses compressed air to store energy from the grid. LightSail's technology will do this more efficiently than other solutions, Ms. Fong says, by capturing some of the excess heat that comes when compressing air. "Until now, this was wasted, reducing efficiency," she says.
Founded in 2009, Berkeley, Calif.-based LightSail has raised $70 million from several investors, including Bill Gates, Peter Thiel,Khosla Ventures and the French energy giant Total. Cont'd...

Elephant Fart by Creative Ramblings
Does anyone really think that the Republicans are actually serious about taking the White House or running the country? And if they are, what country are they thinking about, because it sure as hell ain't this one.
Recent polls are showing that the Republican Flatulists are increasingly being seen as full of hot, irrelevant, stinky air. The last time that anyone was really successful passing wind was a French guy named Le Petomane. He made his name and his fortune using his singular gift entertaining patrons of The Moulin Rouge in Paris in the late 1800's:
Le Pe'tomane (
It is a common misconception that Joseph Pujol actually passed intestinal gas as part of his stage performance. Rather, Pujol was able to "inhale" or move air into his rectum and then control the release of that air with his anal sphincter muscles. Evidence of his ability to control those muscles was seen in the early accounts of demonstrations of his abilities to fellow soldiers. Wikipedia
Le Petomane by kookenz.blogspot.com
Le Petomane went on to have a successful career and was the inspiration for subsequent entertainers and was the subject of movies and books. I doubt very seriously that this current crop of Republican Flatulists will inspire much beyond suppressed guffaws and the renewed efficacy of the use of kitchen matches for something other than lighting the occasional candle or campfire.
Sorry, I just couldn't help it.

Talk:Logar Province
This is the talk page for discussing improvements to the Logar Province article. This is not a forum for general discussion of the article's subject. |
Article policies
WikiProject Afghanistan | (Rated C-class, Top-importance) | ||||||||||||||||
Hello! Lt. Severns from the Gardez Provincial Reconstruction Team here. As communications director for the PRT I have access to on-the-ground info from Paktia and Logar provinces. As a Wikipedian, I'll be adopting these two entries to flesh out with more details and pictures.
If there are any other entries relating to southeast Afghanistan that require info or pictures, I'll be happy to try and get it. Please let me know and I'll see what I can do. Severnjc 09:23, 30 April 2007 (UTC)
info on district-map is not consistent with info under =districts= . Aleichem (talk) 08:07, 15 August 2008 (UTC)
- The map is a bit out of date, I have addressed that a little, but a newer map is needed. It would also be good to have a little more info in this section (i.e. more text to accompany the table and picture as the section seems a little bare without this). Pahari Sahib 17:55, 16 January 2009 (UTC)
I moved this from Lowgar Province to Logar Province as this is by far the most widely used spelling. Lowgar Logar. RMHED (talk) 01:46, 20 September 2008 (UTC)
Edit Carefully[edit]
Please if you have reliable source, then you edit or try to change the demography information. Otherwise do not vandalize and delete information. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Muxlim (talk • contribs) 17:43, 16 January 2009 (UTC)
Reverted edits by IP[edit]
Reverted edits made by IP 126.96.36.199. MRRD was used as a source to back the claims. I also added USAID which clearly states that the predominant population of the province is Pashtun. Also used Institute for the Study of War as a source, which supports the 60% estimate for Pashtuns and 40% for Tajiks and Hazaras (Persian speakers). (Ketabtoon (talk) 01:28, 11 August 2010 (UTC))
- "About 60 percent of Logar's 350,000 residents are Pashtun; Tajiks and Hazaras form the remainder of the population." [1]. As you can see, there is a semi-column after Pashtun not a comma. USAID writes "Logar Province, located 100 kilometers south of Kabul, is a Pashtun area periodically crossed by nomadic tribes." [2]. Here is one other source "The population is predominant Pashtun, but there are some Tajiks in the region of Kashmir." [3]. Read the sources carefully next time. (Ketabtoon (talk) 13:44, 11 August 2010 (UTC))

Yesterday was a holiday in Canada: Victoria Day, where we celebrate the legendary British Queen's birthday. I've never attended, or for that matter even heard of, official Victoria Day ceremonies or events; for most of us it's merely the first long weekend of summery weather. It rained most of the weekend here in Vancouver except for yesterday afternoon. I took the break in the weather as a sign that I should walk to English Bay and take in some beach time. It seems a couple of officers and their steeds from the Vancouver Police Mounted Squad based in nearby Stanley Park did the same!

Here's a basic introduction to encryption, when you should use it, and how to set it up.What Is Encryption?Encryption is a method of protecting data from people you don't want to see it. For example, when you use your credit card on Amazon, your computer encrypts that information so that others can't steal your personal data as its being transferred. Similarly, if you have a file on your computer you want to keep secret only for yourself, you can encrypt it so that no one can open that file without the password. It's great for everything from sending sensitive information to securing your email, keeping your cloud storage safe, and even hiding your entire operating system.

(HOLLYWOOD, CA) -- Bringing a you-are-there experience to the throbbing masses of adult entertainment, VCA releases point-of-view title I Spy POV. "Some guys are married, some have girlfriends and some guys just couldn't do porn if their life depended on it," Fletcher, the unassuming director of I Spy POV observes. "I Spy POV puts those guys who would otherwise live a life quiet desperation and much masturbation a chance to live the life - for a scene, anyway. We have some of the hottest stars that are on the rise in I Spy POV who all turn in great scenes." Georgia Peach, with a butt like her last name, shares I Spy POV's cover with her co-star Courtney Simpson. Peach performs in a rare POV three-way with Simpson to benefit of her anonymous fans in a scene that's a showcase of reasons why she and Simpson are quickly gaining a name in gonzo. "When I do a scene, I think about all the guys that'll be watching it and what they'll be doing while they're watching," Peach says with a wicked smile. "When I was told this was a POV scene, and that feeling of being watched seemed even more intense. It was an amazing turn-on." Like her co-star, Simpson's best asset is her ass and her scorching all-sex scenes have made rain coaters stand up in their pants and take notice of the bubbly blonde's performances. "I love sharing a dick and especially with a girl that's as pretty as Georgia," Simpson giggles. "I loved seeing her take that dick and when I can't control it anymore, taking it inside me or sucking that dick. I think all girls in business have to be exhibitionists and knowing that this scene was going to be seen as if the guy at home was in the scene, it made it all that more hot." I Spy POV also features Havana Ginger, Kaiya Lynn, Sierra Sinn and Harmony and is in stores now from VCA. "I Spy POV - it's just the thing for those Friday nights alone," Fletcher says.

Infinity Abyss is a six-issue comic book limited series published by Marvel Comics from August to October in 2002. The series was written and pencilled by Jim Starlin.
Plot summary[edit]
The series centers on five failed genetic experiments by the Titan Thanos, with each being a clone of his DNA and modelled on other beings, including the characters Professor X; Doctor Strange; Gladiator; Iron Man and Galactus. Obsessed with nihilism and a desire to end the universe, the five - called X; Mystic; Warrior; Armor and Omega - attempt to kill Thanos by creating a black hole in space. X then impersonates Thanos and directs character Pip the Troll to kidnap a recovering Adam Warlock on an alien planet.
X requires information from Warlock, who previously made contact with an entity called the Anchor of Reality. By killing this being and preventing it from locating a successor, the clones will therefore end the universe. The female mercenary Gamora locates the real Thanos, and with the aid of Warlock and heroes Doctor Strange; Spider-Man; Captain Marvel and Moondragon the Titan neutralizes four of the five clones. Omega arrives on Earth to kill the successor to the Anchor of Reality and to destroy the Earth, and is teleported with the heroes to a barren planet where they battle. Thanos transports the heroes back to Earth, and then has a fleet of alien mercenaries destroy the planet, killing the final clone. A human girl is able to become the new Anchor of Reality unchallenged, ending the threat.

- Infinity Abyss (collects Infinity Abyss limited series, 176 pages, 2003, ISBN 0-7851-0985-4)

> Read more here Organic Immortelle Immortelle is a flower that never fades, even when picked. Its Latin name, Helichrysum, means "golden sun," like its magnificent golden flowers. For Corsicans, it is a flower symbolic of the maquis (the fragrant scrubland of Corsica), with a captivating scent. The Balagne region is also known as "the garden of Corsica." In 2001, at the heart of this fragrant region, L'OCCITANE discovered this extraordinary wild plant. The immortelle has medicinal properties known in Mediterranean traditions such as anti-bruising, anti-inflammatory (more effective than arnica), and healing.TraceabilityEver since the remarkable anti-aging properties of the immortelle plant were discovered, the picking of wild immortelle has become increasingly common. When the flowers are picked in accordance with sustainable guidelines, this actually "cleans up" the maquis and indirectly helps to prevent fires. However, the volumes harvested do not allow for a sustainable supply of immortelle. This is why, in 2004, L'OCCITANE launched a large-scale immortelle plantation, covering 50 hectares, in Corsica, using organic farming methods. In 2011, six growers/distillers cultivated and distilled organic immortelle in the Balagne region and eastern Corsica. Quality and traceability can be guaranteed, from the harvesting to the distillation of the flower. All our partners are committed to working with L'OCCITANE over the long term. Stephan Francisci was the first to start this new adventure. He now cultivates 10 hectares for L'OCCITANE between Bastia and Porto-Vecchio. "Each flower cultivated saves a wild plant of the maquis." Pascale Chérubin, based in Ghisonaccia, is a biologist professor and owns five hectares. "This flower has done well for me. I always felt that the whole of Corsica was concentrated in the immortelle, with its spicy smell."Did You Know?• The flowers are picked in the morning and distilled the same day, in the evening, to extract all their constituents. • 1 hectare provides enough land to produce 4 tons of flowers, which yield 8 kilos of essential oil.Patented EffectivenessL'OCCITANE has registered four patents, which attest to the innovative nature of our research into cell regeneration and the remarkable effectiveness of our skincare products made with immortelle from Corsica.• Patent 1: Anti-aging with the Precious Cream: radiance-enhancing action (multiplies collagen production), smoothing (boosts skin microcirculation) and firming (protects the skin against free radicals).• Patent 2: Anti-aging night care with the Very Precious Cream: patent 1 enhanced by repairing and anti-dark spot action.• Patent 3: Complete anti-aging action and action on cellular youth with the Divine Cream: stimulates the production of SIRT-1 by fibroblasts.• Patent 4: The synergy of new immortelle cell extracts and immortelle essential oil, with the new Precious Cream: strengthens the skin's support network and stimulates the natural exfoliation of deep cells.DISCOVER OUR IMMORTELLE COLLECTIONS >
> Read more here Organic Myrtle A symbol of life, myrtle can live for up to 300 years and is able to grow back after a fire. On Corsica, the "Island of Beauty," wild myrtle is distilled to produce "Angel Water" (the distillate of the leaves and fruits). This aromatic water is prized by Corsican women, who use it to enhance their beauty. It reveals an incredible softness on the skin and leaves it delicately perfumed – as if caressed by the breath of an angel. TraceabilityL'OCCITANE sources our myrtle from Corsican distillers. Myrtle grows wild in Corsica and is harvested from August to October. The green stems of the myrtle bushes are distilled to produce both the essential oil and the floral water – known as Angel Water. Myrtle berries, meanwhile, are used to make the famous myrtle liqueur. EffectivenessMyrtle and immortelle come together in a divine combination. Thanks to the extraordinary powers of longevity of myrtle, L'OCCITANE has been able to create a new premium Immortelle range for all women who insist on the very best for their skin. L'OCCITANE tested the effectiveness of its essential oil by in vitro tests on mature fibroblast cell cultures and showed that it was able to stimulate production of the longevity protein (SIRT-1), increasing production by 26%.DISCOVER DIVINE IMMORTELLE >
> Read more here Shea Butter The landscape of Burkina Faso is interspersed with majestic karite trees – the source of shea butter. In this region, the hot winds carry dust and fine sand, which can be very drying for the skin. The women of Burkina Faso traditionally protect their skin, and that of their children, against harsh environmental elements by applying shea butter daily. Organized into cooperatives, they use traditional methods to harvest the fruit of this sacred tree. They extract and dry the nuts, grind them to make a fine paste, and transform the paste into shea butter – a universal and irreplaceable beauty product. This explains why their skin remains so beautiful, supple and elastic.TraceabilityIn the early 1980's, L'OCCITANE set up a joint-development program with the women of Burkina Faso. "Thanks to the incredible success of our Shea Butter range, which is known and loved throughout the world, the number of women producing shea butter for L'OCCITANE has gone from an initial group of less than 100 (20 years ago) to over 15,000 today!" Olivier Baussan, founder of L'OCCITANE.Did You Know?L'OCCITANE wants to go further than a trade business. It ensures that the women of Burkina Faso reap the full benefits of their work by purchasing the butter directly from them in situ. A fair price is paid, which covers the production costs – including environmental and social costs – and leaves a margin for investment. L'OCCITANE prefinances each harvest by up to 80% and helps the women's groups with production, export and finding new outlets. In 2003, we set up the organic network, which is more lucrative for the producers.FoundationCreated in 2006, the L'OCCITANE Foundation supports projects that give women greater autonomy and promote their economic emancipation, creating literacy centers, providing access to micro credits, or bearing the cost of medicines and treatments. In 2009, we decided to "professionalize" the women's groups by obtaining the "Fair Trade" label for their shea butter. FOUNDATION >ECOCERTThe European control and certification body ECOCERT SA has developed the EFT "Ecocert Fair Trade" label, with four main objectives:• Social responsibility• Economic solidarity• Environmental responsibility• Transparency of information and respect for the consumer*Standards available at www.ecocert.comThanks to the EFT label, the women's groups can now provide a guarantee for international clients, providing a sustainable basis for their emancipation. L'OCCITANE has also taken part in an "industrial accompaniment" program, which involves training a man or woman from Burkina Faso in our techniques and expertise at the L'OCCITANE site in Manosque. This year we had a record shea butter order: over 500 tons! DISCOVER OUR SHEA COLLECTION >
> Read more here Almond The almond flower, which typically blooms between February and March, is one of the earliest of the year. Fields are covered with pink and white blossoms, creating a beautiful sight. In Provence, the almond tree was a strong symbol of the regional landscape until the early 20th century. But from the 1930's onwards, the cultivation of almond trees was abandoned, threatened by the mechanization of agriculture and the introduction of new and more profitable crops. The almond tree became scarce in the region. L'OCCITANE wants to put this emblematic tree back where it deserves to be on the Provençal landscape, and so it purchases its almonds from producers in Provence. TraceabilityBy using almonds grown in the south of France, L'OCCITANE supports the almond-growing business and the families it employs, such as the family farm of Mr. Jaubert, an almond grower on the Valensole plateau, in the Alps of Haute-Provence. "To this day, I have planted 10,000 almond trees – my contribution to helping the planet. The trees teach us wisdom and respect. If you look after them well, they will thank you and give good yields," remarks Mr. Jaubert.Did You Know? Thanks to its deep roots and its leaves, from which very little moisture evaporates, the almond tree is highly resistant to drought. It is adapted to our region and gives excellent yields.Patented EffectivenessL'OCCITANE developed an exclusive complex with almond proteins to firm and smooth the body. It contains smoothing almond proteins, firming silicium and the invigorating essential oils of immortelle, palmarosa and peppermint. The stimulation of fat breakdown is multiplied by 7 (in vitro test).DISCOVER OUR ALMOND COLLECTION >
> Read more here Verdon In 2010, for its new men's range, L'OCCITANE drew on a completely new source of inspiration: an extraordinary valley, with a rare and protected natural environment that is home to over 2,200 plant species: the Verdon valley. A spectacular sight in Haute-Provence, the Verdon river has carved out an exceptional natural environment, offering a unique setting for outdoor activities. Sea-buckthorn, genepi, mint and spring water are brought together in ultra-fresh formulas for men, to capture the invigorating sensations of outdoor water sports!Traceability"It was important for me to respect the plant's purity and authenticity, so I chose to grow it organically!," said Eric François, genepi grower in Vars, in the Hautes-Alpes region. L'OCCITANE has combined three organic ingredientsfrom Haute-Provence in this range:• The peppermint comes from organic cultivations set up in 2011 in the Verdon region, in Allemagne-en-Provence, by Christian Gaudemard.• The sea-buckthorn is harvested in the Drac Valley by Mr. and Mrs. Reynier, who have been sea-buckthorn growers for 30 years. • The genepi is grown by Eric François, a man with a passion for plants, in Vars, at an altitude of over 2,000 meters.Did You Know?The new Verdon range was created in accordance with L'OCCITANE's CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) policy.• Both the plastic and glass bottles are made from 100% recycled bottles (and there are no boxes).• They have screw-on caps and pumps, which can be removed from the bottles before recycling.• The labels are made from the same material as the bottles (PET), so as not to hinder the recycling process.Patented EffectivenessL'OCCITANE has developed a patented complex of active ingredients that work together in synergy. Organic ingredients from Haute-Provence provide the perfect response to the specific needs of men's skin.• Thirst-quenching: sea-buckthorn water leaves skin feeling incredibly comfortable.• Energizing: sea-buckthorn oil gives the skin an invigorating boost and a healthy glow.• Protective: genepi extract strengthens the skin's resistance to harsh environmental conditions, to protect its youth.• Purifying: peppermint essential oil, combined with zinc, leaves skin matt and perfectly clear.DISCOVER OUR MEN'S PRODUCTS >

In the past, shepherds who held the secret to distilling cade wood used its precious oil to protect their faces and hands from the wind and sun. They cut branches of wild juniper and a large fire was lit, which caused the wood to exude a thick oil with protective and fortifying properties. It was also used to treat animal wounds. This distillation of cade wood traditionally accompanied sheep and goat breeding.TraceabilityL'OCCITANE uses cade from one of many picking areas in the Alps of Haute-Provence, near the village of Le Chaffaut. The trunks are cut up into small chips and then distilled to produce cade essential oil, which is certified organic by ECOCERT. Fascinated by plants and a connoisseur of cade wood, Jean-Louis Delfour, cade pick for L'OCCITANE, walks through the Alps of Haute-Provence, looking out for cade bushes hidden in the scrubland. With his trained eye, he finds it easily and picks it for L'OCCITANE. "Cade reminds me of my childhood and the smell of this very particular wood, which my father used in his workshop, in Thiers." Did You Know? The harvesting of cade wood contributes to the upkeep and protection of the scrubland in Provence. Cade is a shrub whose rapid growth can be detrimental to other plant species and can also increase the risk of forest fires.Patented EffectivenessL'OCCITANE has developed a patented complex that meets the specific needs of men's skin. In addition to its purifying and invigorating properties, it also helps to strengthen, regenerate and protect the skin. DISCOVER OUR MEN'S PRODUCTS >
> Read more here Organic Angelica Angelica is a surprising plant. This age-old umbelliferous plant is known for its remarkable vitality: it grows incredibly fast and can reach a height of two meters in May, when it comes into flower. Its secret lies in its thick, deep roots, which act like water channels, drawing up all the water it needs to grow. L'OCCITANE was particularly interested in the moisturizing and revitalizing properties of angelica. The Angelica range is ideal for women who want to restore their skin's radiance. TraceabilityL'OCCITANE sources its angelica from Frédéric Nivon's farm in Lapeyrouse Mornay, in the Drôme region. "Angelica is a surprising plant that never ceases to amaze me, even after growing it for 12 years." Seventy years ago, his grandfather set up a farm near the village of Lapeyrouse Mornay, in the Drôme region. Mr. Nivon carried on the family business, following in the footsteps of his grandfather and father. For 12 years, he has grown angelica, and the remarkable vitality of this plant continues to amaze him. In 2005, the angelica that he grows for L'OCCITANE obtained organic certification. In accordance with organic requirements, no fertilizers or chemical pesticides are used. Organic angelica essential oil and angelica water are extracted from these roots.Did You Know?Also called "Angel Grass" or "Holy Spirit Root," angelica roots were worn as a protective amulet to avert evil spells and bewitch sorcerers with their pleasant smell.Patented EffectivenessFor the first time in cosmetics, the L'OCCITANE laboratory patented the combination of two extracts taken from the heart of angelica roots for their effectiveness on both skin hydration and vitality. • By improving water circulation in the skin, angelica water boosts the skin's natural hydration. • By protecting the skin against free radicals, angelica essential oil improves skin vitality, so that skin stays beautiful, longer.Immediately and lastingly moisturized and revitalized, skin is plump, smoothed and radiant.DISCOVER OUR ANGELICA COLLECTION >
> Read more here Rose In ancient times, Mediterranean women would use oils in which rose petals had been steeped, to perfume their skin and keep it fresh and beautiful. Both legendary and timeless, the rose has become the "queen of flowers" and an endless source of creativity for perfumers. Its many facets inspired a collection of three eaux de toilette, in every shade of femininity, from the most romantic to the most mysterious and captivating. TraceabilityL'OCCITANE perfumers use Rose Centifolia absolute from Grasse, Rose Damascena concrete from Morocco, and Rose Damascena essential oil from Turkey and Bulgaria. Did You Know? The difference between the absolute, the concrete and the essential oil: • The essential oil is the volatile aromatic substance extracted from a botanical source. It is a true concentrate and, in the case of rose essential oil, is obtained through steam distillation of the freshly picked flowers. • The concrete is obtained through extraction using volatile solvents. It takes 300 to 400 kg of flowers to produce 1 kg of rose concrete, and 4 to 5 tons to produce 1 kg of essential oil! • The absolute is the essence prepared from the concrete by extraction with alcohol.Eau de Toilette, Floral RoseThe delicate freshness of a bouquet of roses, the velvety softness of dew-kissed petals. In Provence, a legend tells of how the daughters of the Count of Forcalquier were as beautiful as the roses they cherished – the Grasse rose, the Bulgarian rose, the Moroccan rose and the Turkish rose. Each one of these daughters married a king, and so it was that Marguerite, Eléonore, Sancie and Béatrix became the four Queens of Forcalquier. Their favorite roses are blended together in the Eau des 4 Reines – a beautifully fresh, delicate and velvety scent.DISCOVER OUR ROSE COLLECTION >
> Read more here P.D.O Lavender Also known as "blue gold," lavender is an aromatic tribute to Provence. It is the fragrant soul of the region, the fruit of respectful labor. In accordance with tradition, every summer, young Provencal villagers go hiking on the sunny hills to pick wild lavender at high altitudes. During the harvest period, they set out for several days in the open air, and at night, they get together to share the secrets of this summer flower with relaxing and purifying properties. In Provence, it is fine lavender, Lavandula angustifolia, which yields the purest essential oil, renowned for its delicate perfume. It is very different from the lavandin perfume, with its camphor smell. TraceabilityL'OCCITANE sources the essential oil of P.D.O. fine lavender from Haute-Provence directly from farmers' cooperatives in Sault and the surrounding area. The P.D.O. (Protected Designation of Origin) label guarantees a very high-quality product, since the relevant criteria are very strict:• To obtain the P.D.O. label, the essential oil must be produced by steam distillation (not with solvents) using only the flowering tops of Lavandula Angustifolia P. Miller, or Fine Lavender.• Production is geographically limited to a few French départements.• Plantations must be in this area, at a minimum altitude of 800 m above sea level.• The essential oil must be virgin: no substances or products can be added to it.In Lagarde d'Apt, at an altitude of over 1,000 meters, Martine Rayne, who was born into the world of lavender, continues the work of her ancestors. "On our land in Lagarde d'Apt, there has always been wild lavender. Every year, we harvest it to keep the seeds and maintain the diversity of this fine lavender. Each young plant is different – and this is one of the secrets of its exceptional characteristics." Did You Know?• The A.O.C. label (now the P.D.O. label) was created in 1981 to protect French products in the face of competition from foreign sources. It guarantees a very high-quality product. • It is important not to confuse fine lavender with lavandin, which is a hybrid made by crossing Lavandula Officinalis with spike lavender, and which yields an essence used mainly for products that are mass produced on an industrial scale (e.g. cleaning products, washing powder, mass-produced beauty products).Lavender Eau de Cologne Brightened by the radiant freshness of citrus fruits, the Lavender Eau de Cologne is a fresh and light fragrance with a lingering, captivating, woody musky trail. This sunny cologne is a celebration of summer that captures all the luminosity of Haute-Provence.DISCOVER OUR LAVENDER COLLECTION >

Long before it became famous as an ornamental plant, as far back as ancient times, the peony was a renowned medicinal plant. A symbol of beauty, it offers a dazzling show of colors and scents every spring. This flower with a thousand petals inspired the new fragrance and make-up collection by L'OCCITANE. TraceabilityTo understand the fragrant secrets of this flower, L'OCCITANE established an exclusive partnership with a nurseryman, Jean-Luc Rivière – a man with a passion for peonies, whose family has devoted itself to breeding and cultivating them for 160 years, in the Drôme region of France. Following Mr. Rivière's advice, L'OCCITANE developed a natural extract of peony root, which perfumes all the products in the collection. "We've fallen in love with the peony in all its incarnations," says Jean-Luc Rivière, nurseryman in the Drôme region.Did You Know?• The peony reveals its beauty to those who deserve it. In a nursery, it can take 5 to 7 years to go from planting the peony to seeing it first bloom!• Up to 60 flowers can blossom from a single peony plant. The largest flowers can have a diameter of 30 cm! Pivoine Flora Eau de Toilette, Green FloralThe generous floral scent of a peony blooming in the green freshness of a nursery on a spring morning.

Any of these programs will be available through remote access into the Webber network system. Become a better online student Develop good time management skills. Expect to spend at least 50 to 60 total hours per course. During a regular semester, that is approximately 4-5 hours each week per course. Develop a weekly schedule in which you have scheduled that amount of time for each course. Use your time wisely. When working on your courses, keep yourself focused on the work that must be done. Keep up with your work; do not fall behind. The best way to accomplish this is to be about a week ahead of schedule. If something happens and you are not able to work for several days, you will still be able to submit your work on time. Life happens. Situations are going to occur that will prevent you from working on your course work for several days. If it is a scheduled event (business trip), then work to get ahead so that you will be able to submit your assignments before the event. If an unusual event occurs, such as a death in the family, contact the professor as soon as possible. Do not wait until the deadline to submit an assignment or take a quiz. If Moodle goes down, the professor may or may not make arrangements for submitting an assignment late or to extend the closing date/time for a quiz. If you have a technical problem, such as the Internet is not working, you are still expected to submit your assignments on time and take the quiz within the allotted time period. Therefore, do not wait until the last minute. Submit assignments and take quizzes early. At the beginning of the semester, read and study the syllabus. Know what is expected of you in the course. Check your syllabus and Moodle several times each week for assignments and due dates. By doing this, you will not accidentally miss an assignment. Keep regular communications with the instructor. When you have questions, concerns, or want a little clarification about an assignment, contact your professor via email. If you are having difficulties in a class, let the instructor know immediately. Don't wait until it is too late to ask for help. What you get from a course is based on how much effort you put into it. In an online course, you may be given more flexibility into what you study. In these situations, you must put forward your full effort to get full benefits from the course. When completing assignments, do not cheat. You are expected to do your own work. (WIU Policy on Cheating) When writing a research report, do not plagiarize. You are expected to analyze similar or opposing concepts and ideas of several authors that are found in the literature and express those combined concepts and ideas in your own words. Use direct quotes sparingly. Do not use a direct quote to make a point; use a direct quote to emphasize a point you have already made. Include proper source documentation on each paragraph. (WIU Policy on Plagiarism) Good attendance in any course is important. For an online course, attendance is measured by logging into Moodle regularly, participating in online discussions and submitting assignments on time. Visit Important Links and Documents

"Man the food-gatherer reappears incongruously as information-gatherer," was a line by Marshall McLuhan back in '67. Back in '43, Alan Turing visited Bell Labs on a cryptographic mission with Claude Shannon, the inventor of the word bit, as a unit for measuring information. Shannon and Turing were speculating on artificial thinking machines and Turing remarked, "Shannon wants to feed not just data to a Brain, but cultural things, he wants to play music on it!" In deference to my SCRM pals, not much was done to enable the ether with the proper accoutrements to take advantage of these forward thinkers until the last dozen years. So don't take it personally.
The proposition that one day we would be so overwhelmed with the information out there in the ether, and would somehow be inclined to use it, and capable of exploiting it to our advantage, was not really taken seriously until recently. Once the greatest information gathering device in the world, the Internet, came about, data became the elephant in the room. Now we see software applications doodling around with notions from the advertising world, which is where most ideas are generated these days. Structured data and unstructured data are being mixed and matched to sort out how we spend our time, if we are a danger or an asset to the powers who be.
Mobile technology, the newest playing field leveler, especially for undeveloped countries, is expected to grow by 100% through the next few years. Data mavens salivate from this because the data reconnoitered from mobile devices can be tagged to individuals thus making it even more valuable than an ordinary IP address.
"Sources such as online or mobile financial transactions, social media traffic, and GPS coordinates now generate over 2.5 quintillion bytes of so-called big data every day."
Services in health, education, financial services, and agriculture promise to vault the developing world into the 21st Century, and we have certainly seen evidence of that already.
The dynamics of the data ecosystem demand an unbiased referendum on how governments, business and the general public are protected and how profits can be gained. We've already witnessed how companies peddling CRM attributes have mined their customer base to help them help their customers.
The concept of the "Superuser" as a free source of expertise is not new, God knows, the evolution of the beta test used by companies like Microsoft, to cure their turgid code, has been part of the general good, though never intended as such.
We've seen, regardless of your politics, how the Arab Spring and natural disasters have been assisted by social networking and how information shared somewhat altruistically can be an important tool for the betterment of humankind and the natural world.
The private sector maintains vast troves of transactional data, much of which is data exhaust, or data created as a by-product of other transactions; the public sector in most countries also maintains enormous datasets in the form of census data, health indicators, and tax and expenditure information. Medical establishments and their cohorts are finally getting on board in the race for using big data to reduce the 17% of GDP we now spend on healthcare.
Big data is no secret and nothing new. Obstacles abound from every segment of the economy and threats prevail that can bring down entire societies. The notion that people can trust their information to a Facebook or a Google or their government is simply a myth as all these giants are doing anything they can to mine the data and repackage regardless of what their privacy statements say.
Education is a must and leadership is desperately gone from the landscape. Take my advice and don't share your personal identifying information and if you decide to discuss personal locations and other attributing features, accept the fact that it will not be kept private. Lastly, encourage those you vote for to learn how countries and some governments are doing things the right way.
