Shackled and stacked like sardines in the unventilated cargo hold of the ship, the Africans endured excruciating hunger, sickness, pain and terror. Seared by branding irons, they suffered bloody wounds that lay open for days.
Millions would not survive the horrors of the Middle Passage from Africa to the master's new world.
For Ric Powell, the cries of his ancestors bubbled to the surface five years ago when he tried on the sea-worn shackles recovered from a wrecked slave ship, the Henrietta Marie.
``It brought tears to my eyes,'' said Powell, 55, of Miramar. ``That particular ship had transported enslaved Africans, possibly some of my ancestors.''
Slave ships like the Henrietta Marie, which sank off Key West in 1700, carried 15 million Africans into slavery in different parts of the Western Hemisphere, including Jamaica, Haiti, Cuba, Barbados, the Bahamas, Trinidad and Brazil.
The descendants of slaves developed separate nations, cultures, languages and histories.
Together in South Florida
Today, thousands of blacks from those nations have come together in South Florida, bringing dozens of cultures with them. In a sense, their arrival reunited them with their long-separated African brothers and sisters.
As Black History History Month begins today, some are questioning whether the monthlong observance should evolve into a celebration of the history, struggle and achievement of all black people who live here _ regardless of national origin.
``[Black History Month) should have more of a Pan-African, global aspect to it,'' said Gene Tinnie, a professor of English and humanities at Miami-Dade Community College in Miami. ``As the saying goes, `We all came on the same boat, we just got off at different places.' ''
Dozens of black people interviewed in Broward, Miami-Dade and Palm Beach counties agree that the history of all blacks should be reflected. But the issue has not been discussed much, if at all, among the different cultural groups.

Güdel's linear systems, with its longitudinal precision guides and drivetrain components, provides high speed and acceleration and enables a moving mass weighing anywhere between ten kilos and several tons – to be positioned with the utmost accuracy.
The modular system comprises the following basic elements: guide rollers, tracks (with or without in-built racks), pinions and beams. The assembly can be employed anywhere and has several advantages over traditional recirculating ball systems. Because of its compactness and the integrated racks for the drive, it is an excellent solution in premises where space is at a premium.
The guideway system for heavy duty applications is based on standardized roller supports with three integrated roller bearings, guideways with and without racks, drive units and tubular steel profiles with guideways. the system is especially suited for high axial and radial loads, high moment ratings, high rigidity and quiet operation.
The guideway system for medium duty applications is based on standardized guideway rollers and vee bars. The system is especially suitable for applications requiring high velocities, low friction, exact positioning and quiet operation.

One reason online auctions are effective is that they provide buyers with greater flexibility while increasing their timeframe for research and discovery
Clive, Iowa (PRWEB) June 26, 2015
Eleven excess land tracts were sold to 10 different bidders during an online auction facilitated by Peoples Company on behalf of the Iowa Department of Transportation. A total of $779,000 was paid for the 11 excess parcels consisting of tillable farmland, building sites and recreational properties located in four Iowa counties: Linn, Polk, Webster and Calhoun.
Peoples Company's Online Auctions services, which are designed to intensify the reach of land agents on behalf of sellers, create a competitive sales environment that allows prospects to bid from remote locations, and with an extended length of time for prospective buyers to perform their due diligence.
"One reason online auctions are effective is that they provide buyers with greater flexibility while increasing their timeframe for research and discovery," said Peoples Company Land Agent Matt Adams. "The platform is also competitive as it enlarges the buyer pool to include potential for bidders to participate from anywhere in the world that a connection to the Internet can be maintained. The identities of buyers and sellers remain undisclosed throughout the online auction process. Bids can be placed from work or home. This sets the stage for arms length transactions."
Terms of online auctions are matched to the preferences of sellers who can determine factors such as when the auction will open, bidding increments, closing time and whether to set a reserve amount. Prospective buyers are required to accept certain terms and conditions intended to ensure a high level of sincerity exists prior to being approved to participate in the online bidding process.
The Iowa DOT auction opened on April 1, closed on April 29, and garnered a total of more than 500 bids. The seller's reserve price was met for each property. Final sales prices ranged from $10,100 to $220,100 per tract. The event marked Peoples Company's ninth web-based land sale – and fourth online auction completed successfully on behalf of the Iowa DOT – since the ag real estate services provider launched its Online Auctions platform two years ago.
"At Peoples Company, we empower our tech savvy team to manage or delegate each piece of due diligence in a timely manner," Adams said. "Our agents and staff aggressively market the real estate; fielding calls and working to keep both the seller and prospects completely informed. To put a deal like this together in 45 days requires an all-hands-on-deck mentality and process that other brokers may find difficult to replicate."
Bidding for a new online auction being conducted by Peoples Company for the Iowa DOT – with approximately 18 properties located in Woodbury, Sioux, O'Brien, Osceola, Dickinson, Sac, Calhoun, Webster, Humboldt, Allamakee, and Polk counties – is now open and scheduled to close on July 30.

When Jim Boucher, park manager for the Piedras Blancas Light Station, died in November, shell-shocked friends, family and members of the Piedras Blancas Light Station Association knew they wanted to create a permanent memorial to him and all he had accomplished in his eight years on the job at a place he loved.
The association's board of directors announced Jan. 21 that it has established a memorial fund to honor the late manager who inspired so many. Donations will help re-create a gate that stood at the light station's entrance in the 19th century.
"Symbolically, and visibly," said Carole Adams, Piedras Blancas Light Station volunteer coordinator, "the replica entrance gate is an appropriate project to designate as a tribute to Boucher."
Those wishing to contribute can make tax-deductible donations.
Boucher completed several historic restoration and reconstruction projects at the light station and developed an educational outreach program. Boucher was instrumental in designating more than 400 acres surrounding the light station as an Outstanding Natural Area within the Bureau of Land Management Natural Landscape Conservation System.
Under Boucher's leadership, public tours of the light station were expanded to six days a week during the summer. More than 45,000 visitors have taken public tours at Piedras Blancas Light Station since 2008.
According to David Cooper, PBLSA board chairman, the group "gathered ideas for a suitable memorial from groups that Boucher worked with, including association members, the Bureau of Land Management, light station volunteers, and community and nonprofit partners."
How to donate
Donations payable to "PBLSA Jim Boucher Memorial Fund" should be sent to Piedras Blancas Light Station Association, Jim Boucher Memorial Fund, c/o Harry Thorpe, P.O. Box 127, San Simeon, CA 93452.

Types of Unintended Consequences of CPOE
1. More/New Work for Clinicians
CPOE systems can significantly increase clinician workload. This can happen, for instance, by requiring that clinicians enter more information than was previously necessary or having them respond to an excessive number of alerts that may or may not contain useful information. Although improved system design may limit the amount of added work, the lesson here is that more work for the clinician is inevitable, and must be addressed in the planning process. Successful implementations balance required new work with system-based improvements in old work processes (e.g., providing integrated real time results reporting) to make use of the systems by clinicians tolerable.
2. Workflow Issues
Clinical information systems (CIS) in general, and some CPOE systems in particular, can dramatically highlight mismatches between intended and actual work processes in real-world clinical settings. CPOE designers and implementers must considered the appropriate range of workflow perspectives (e.g., those of the nursing staff, clerical staff and pharmacists, as well as of physicians) for the resulting technological system to accommodate comprehensive, fully integrated clinical workflows. But the fact remains, no CPOE system fits all workflows of a given hospital perfectly. Even if a system initially did so, it would not eliminate the need for constant system adaptation to changing workflows in the future.
3. Never Ending System Demands
As CPOE systems evolve (i.e., are reconfigured, enhanced, or replaced) users must be retrained and quality assurance measures must be reassessed. With each change, implementers should expect unintended consequences. Planning must allocate adequate resources for ongoing improvements.
4. Problems Related to Paper Persistence
Many CPOE vendors advertise products as helping an organization to "go paperless." But a key distinction must be made. Paper-based clinical record storage will become obsolete, but use of paper in the clinical setting will not. Paper remains the most malleable, flexible, and easily transportable data medium available, and clinicians often rely on it as a necessary, sometimes superior, cognitive memory aid during patient care. Organizations are understandably hard pressed to limit paper use. The key issue is to decrease or eliminate the dependency on ineffective, paper-based processes that form barriers to optimal health care delivery (such as illegible written orders).
5. Changes in Communication Patterns and Practices
CPOE implementation changes clinical communication patterns. Some describe CPOE as providing an "illusion of communication" because it promotes the belief that entry of an order into the system ensures that the proper people will see it and act upon it. Doctors, nurses and other providers consistently report that clinical systems like CPOE can cause unsatisfactory reductions in face-to-face communication regarding patient care, which in turn may increase the likelihood of errors being made. Improvements in system interface design must pay special attention to the communication needs of health care providers. In addition, a comprehensive communication plan that reaches all levels of the organization must be part of any CPOE project management plan.
6. Negative Emotions
Emotional responses to change are inevitable. Shifting from paper-based order generation to CPOE is bound to evoke strong emotional responses as users struggle to adapt to the new technology. These responses can point out significant problems with the system design, and can lead to solutions. Training and open communication can help to promote better understanding, which may reduce the negative emotional responses to CPOE.
7. Generation of New Kinds of Errors
CPOE systems prevent some types of errors while creating or propagating new ones. New CPOE-related errors result from: problematic electronic data presentations; confusing order option presentations and selection methods; inappropriate text entries; misunderstandings related to test, training, and production versions of the system; and workflow process mismatches. Recognizing current unintended consequences should encourage system designers to optimize human computer interface design, and to exert caution when implementing new alerts.
8. Unexpected and Unintended Changes in Institutional Power Structure
As CPOE systems enforce specific clinical practice patterns, while also monitoring clinicians behaviors, they may induce changes in the power structure and culture of an organization. Because CPOE-related power changes affect organizational and personal autonomy, they often cause significant unintended adverse consequences for end-users. Most often it is the physician who loses power: this must be recognized and dealt with explicitly during the CPOE planning process.
9. Overdependence on Technology
Health care is increasingly dependent on technology, and this is unlikely to change. The more widely and deeply diffused the technology, the more difficult it becomes to work without it. But dependence on technology must never become so great that basic medical care cannot be provided in its absence. Prolonged CPOE system failures (lasting hours) have the potential to dramatically halt the flow of clinical information to such an extent that outpatient activities may be curtailed or canceled and emergency rooms at trauma centers may divert admissions until vital systems are restored. Planning for management of unexpected downtime is critical.
Furthermore, users of CPOE should maintain a healthy skepticism about the information provided by such systems (e.g., not blindly trusting all information in the system without considering that it might be incorrect, or without seeking verification).

In front of a flat on a quiet street in Phnom Penh, 24 year old Kong Soliya (known as Jay) is giving instructions to another man, who leaves quickly on his green motorbike. Behind him is a row of several green motor bikes equipped with big storage boxes behind the drivers' seat. This is the "office" of a startup company 'Joonaak', meaning Deliver To You in Khmer, where Jay is the CEO and a co-founder. Joonaak Delivery offers services to small and medium enterprises and online businesses to deliver products to their customers.
Jay is one of a growing number of young CEOs his age in Cambodia. While looking up client data to facilitate a delivery, Jay said it was not easy reaching this point. He describes how he and three cousins came up with the business idea, saying, "We were on trip with the big family and the other members were playing a card game. ¬We went away to talk about anything we could think of. At one point we came across a common challenge faced by us as well as other online stores — product delivery."
"Without Startup weekend, we could not have reached this point," Jay explains. "Either the idea could have moved forward slowly because there would be no family and finance support, or the idea could be scrapped away."
Startup Weekend, known by the tagline "No Talk, All Action", is a global network of passionate leaders and entrepreneurs on a mission to inspire, educate, and empower individuals, teams and communities and provide a space where anyone can come to share ideas, form teams to identify business needs, and launch startup businesses. In 2014, Kong Jay teamed up with his cousins to pitch their business idea at Startup Weekend, held at USAID's Development Innovations. The idea won the second place award, beating out more than ten others.
With above 7% economic growth annually according to World Bank, Cambodia is considered as one of the fast-growing economies in South-East Asia. Most young people in the kingdom only dream of finding good jobs in the future, and decent employment is a challenge as 17.7 of Cambodia's 15 million people are making less than $1.25 per day (2012). Economic experts suggests small and medium enterprises and entrepreneurs are key to solve the problem, but most Cambodian youth do not learn about how to run business unless they grow up in business families. Seeing that gap and in hopes of supporting the next generation of ICT-enabled start-ups, USAID's Development Innovations project provided both financial and technical support to the last two Startup Weekends.
"Startup Weekend mainly helps break an old perception that young people just need to go to school and work; [that is the only way] they can make a change or a difference. The win helped break our family barrier by proving that the idea could work [outside the traditional structures]. It also encouraged us that the idea has a strong potential of success and allowed us to meet an investor to back us financially. With initial investment of $30,000, Joonaak was launched in early 2015 and received an additional $15,000 in investment as the company grew." Jay said. He added, "Our investor decided to invest after hearing about the project from his staff who had joined Startup Weekend."
Joonaak is now growing faster than Jay's expectation with more than 10 staff and ever increasing demand serving 48 stores and companies with an average of 50 deliveries per day. As internet access and smartphone use expands across Cambodia, young people will continue to turn to online businesses for cheaper, more agile business investments. What will happen at the next Startup Weekend? Check out the program for January 2016 at Cambodia Startup Weekend.

This is a true story
In a world where everything's a different shade of grey, a couple of crazy guys had a vision. A vision of colour, unexpected fun and a brighter future. It all started on a holiday in the Far East ...
It was love at first sight. We were on a backpacking trip to Thailand. And when a tuktuk nearly drove us over, it knocked us off our feet. It's friendly looks and bright colours made it irresistible to take a ride. And when we did, the deal was sealed. Head over heels.
A few years later opportunity came knocking. We decided to brighten up the dull grey streets of Holland with some of these babies. In 2006 we imported 50 tuktuks. It was a smash hit: we sold all of them in no time. Alas, we soon discovered that looks aren't everything …
Soon, the number of mechanics equalled the number of Tuk Tuks. If this was going to be a long term relationship, we thought, we've got to keep what's great and improve the rest. Good looks aside, they were also polluting, loud, expensive and frankly: not too well built. So in 2007 the idea was born: why don't we make Tuk Tuks that are clean, premium, low maintenance and have smart automotive solutions like part numbers and type approvals and stuff ? If it works for Mercedes, it might work for us!
We assembled an A-team of engineers and simply retrofitted the gasoline Tuks. Bad move. We learned that a small battery wouldn't crack it. Back to the drawing board. Literally. We needed to think different.
While everybody was thinking lightweight electric vehicles, we took the opposite approach: a battery of over 400kg that could transport over 6 passengers. To achieve our goals, we knew we had to make a product that would sell itself. And the only way to do that was to make sure it would actually make our customers money on the streets.
In 2008 TukTuk Factory was born. A brand new company that set out to make the world a bit more fun, friendly and colorful. And by friendly we mean sustainable. And by sustainable we mean electric. Now look at us. We're selling our unique e-Tuks all over the world. Entrepreneurs from Portugal through New-Zealand instantly see their potential. They connect to our mission and vision. They recognise themselves in it.
They fall in love. Just like we did so many years ago.
Boring vehicles replaced
Liters of gasoline saved
Longest trip in km's
Required drivers license
e-Tuks built per month
Countries with type approval
Since 2011 we produce our e-tuks in Thailand, home of the tuktuk. With our dedicated production team we put the heart in our fun vehicles. As a responsible company with a family feeling we focus on each member's personal growth, as well as team spirit. As a proud result, we are growing our production numbers rapidly -even doubling- every year.
Of course we love to have you over in our Dutch headquarters. Take a test drive, have some cheese and get some tulips for the misses. But we can imagine you're way too busy. No problemo. Just visit one of our local distributors near you.

'Interstellar': Matthew McConaughey Risks Life In Stunning New Trailer
'Interstellar' is so close, yet so far! In theaters November 7, check out the newest trailer for Christopher Nolan's latest masterpiece where we get a closer look than ever at Matthew McConaughey and Anne Hathaway's out-of-this-world mission.
Matthew McConaughey's "McConaissance" continues Nov. 7 in Interstellar. The most recent trailer for Christopher Nolan's space odyssey finally gives some proper screentime to Anne Hathaway and to the great beyond — check out the gorgeous footage and let us know if you'll be watching!
'Interstellar': Matthew McConaughey & Anne Hathaway In New Trailer — Watch
Matthew plays Cooper, a widowed engineer and ex-pilot who is called upon when a wormhole is discovered in space. Along with Anne's Amelia Brand and a host of other famous faces, our travelers embark on a mission to transcend the limits of space travel in order to save humanity from a catastrophic food shortage.
Cooper makes the tough choice to leave his children behind in order to keep them from being the last generation to survive on earth, as Michael Caine's character so succinctly put it, and Amelia tells Cooper: "You might have to decide between seeing your children again and the future of the human race."
'Interstellar': Many Details Of The Film Still Shrouded In Mystery
The gorgeous views of a galaxy beyond our solar system are totally breathtaking in Interstellar's latest trailer, but a lot of questions remain.
Ever since the film was announced in 2006 with Steven Spielberg originally attached to direct, Interstellar has been relatively shrouded in mystery.
As the most complete trailer we've seen yet, it's still difficult to get a full grasp of each character's role and how exactly our intrepid travelers will save the world, the importance of which is impressed upon over and over by Michael Caine's character as well as quick cuts of dust storms and crop fires.
All we know is that we're basically dying to see this film. HollywoodLifers, will you be seeing Interstellar on Nov. 7? Or will you be skipping this one? Let us know!

Dear Parent/Guardian,
My parents' wedding anniversary is June 14th. My favorite picture of my Mom and Dad, on that day, is a photo of my Mom in her wedding gown playing the drums with the band and, nearby, my Dad sits on the edge of the bandstand with his head in his hands. Many years and 6 kids later, I remember my parents coming home from a shopping trip. Mom wanted a new toilet paper roll holder. Dad had been sick for a few years and, even though he was feeling kind of crummy and my parents didn't have a lot of cash at the time, he took Mom down to the Dill's Lumber Yard. (Our version of Home Depot) At Dill's, Dad bought Mom the fanciest toilet paper roll holder there. Between their wedding, many moons before, and the purchase of that toilet paper roll holder, my Mom and Dad had lived years of 'happy forever.'
For me, it kind of feels like a 'happy forever' since the teachers and I met your amazing children at family meetings last August. In that time, so much has happened! We have laughed big belly laughs at tons of silly knock knock jokes and cried huge tears at drop-off. We danced to the Toe Jam Puppet Band and called you to talk about little and big things that happened at school. We saw the ballet and visited the zoo. We held an alligator and met Mother Goose. We wore our Red, White and Blue uniform shirts with pride but sometimes showed our school spirit with Crazy Hair, Crazy Socks and lots of silly costumes. The Kindergartners learned to read and write and do Math with 10 frames. The Preschoolers learned letters and sounds, their name and how to count. We practiced being kind and learned how to have: 'eyes watching, body calm, ears listening, voices quiet.' All in all, we became a school family.
Whenever, I am 'home' with my family in NY, I see that fancy toilet paper roll holder. Please know though that with even a little tug, the tp and the holder that never really worked ends up flying across the bathroom floor. I never get exasperated. It always just makes me smile because it is a symbol of my Dad's love for my Mom. On behalf of all of the faculty and staff, thank you for gifting us with the privilege and honor of spending a year with your little one. Thank you for a year of love.
With Much Gratitude,
Beth Tanner, MS Ed

Recent price: 4.07$
P/E Ratio: 11.10
3 month Target Price: 4.75$
Company Description
Continucare provides primary care physician services on an outpatient basis through a network of medical facilities and independent physician affiliates (IPAs) in the State of Florida. Continucare has 18 medical offices equipped with state-of-the-practice technology and staffed with experienced physicians and a comprehensive support staff.

Confidence Margins
Strong resistance $5.09 (+25%)
Light resistance $4.84 (+19%)
Light support $3.76 (-8%)
Strong support $3.25 (-20%)
This company recently saw a sharp drop in it's stock price that seems to have no particular reason. Taking into account that Continucare provides a very important service and that it's valuation if fairly conservative compared to it's peers in it's sector, an investor should see current price levels as an sign to acquire some of it's publicly traded common stock. There is still some potential downside left so a couple of days might be necessary before opening a position.
Entry strategy
For the cautious investor:
At the time of writing, it is suggested to wait about one or two days before initiating a long position. Keep in mind however that one should buy the stock for 4.25$ or less.
For the risk-taking trader:
The May 2011 5$ call option contract seems to be the right position to take, they can be acquired for 30$ per contract.
Exit Strategy
For the cautious investor:
Sell when the stock reaches 4.75$, or keep it until 5$ if the stock crosses the light resistance level.
For the risk-taking trader:
The contracts should be kept until the underlying reaches around 4.75$, as for the cautious investor.

New Year's Resolution Prayer:
Gracious God, thank you for your work of renewal in me. Thank you for the fact that I am new in Christ, having put off my old self and put on my new self. Thank you for the fact that you are at work in me, making me new from the inside out.
When I fall back into the ways of my old self, deliver me, Lord. Help me to choose to put off those ways. Ignite within me a desire for the new life, the life you offer in Christ. Continue, I pray, your work of renewing my inner being, so that I might be more and more like you.
All praise be to you, O God, Father, Son, and Spirit, because you are making all things new, including me! Amen.
Ephesians 4:22-24 New Living Translation (NLT)
… throw off your old sinful nature and your former way of life, which is corrupted by lust and deception. 23 Instead, let the Spirit renew your thoughts and attitudes. 24 Put on your new nature, created to be like God—truly righteous and holy.
taken from: http://www.thehighcalling.org/reflection/happy-new-you#.UsR3frQWr3W
About one year ago, I gave my life back to Christ. In 2013, I truly learned how to live better in Christ and I have learned better listening skills with God. I have allowed the Holy Spirit to guide my faith and to lead me in understanding scripture and the voice of God. I wish the same to every one of you. It all starts when we acceptance that Jesus is our Savior and died for our sins. Your faith will grow rapidly through the Holy Spirit. You will soon see the miracles that God lovingly has in store for you.
Happy New Year!!!!

Miley Cyrus, Sky Ferreira, and Katy Perry at the Elton John AIDS Foundation Academy Awards viewing party in Beverly Hills on Feb. 26.
Photo: Getty Images
Whew, it was a loooong 2012 Oscar night. From a fash parade of Best Dressed lovelies to Angelina Jolie's leg workin' the red carpet (and Oscar stage) like a seasoned pro, it was an evening full of style sensations and straight-up style shenanigans. And it didn't stop with the actual awards show, either. As you know, there are many post-Oscar bashes to attend, and Elton John's annual dinner, in support of the Elton John AIDS Foundation, is always a celeb- and musician-friendly fave. This year's event drew everyone from Miley Cyrus and Sky Ferreira to Katy Perry and Nina Dobrev. Also? It was an evening awash in silver sparkle and matte black panache.
Ms. Cyrus stunned in a light gray Roberto Cavalli mega Hollywood glamour gown embellished with silver filigree and cascades of silk pooling to the floor. We don't think we've seen the former Hannah Montana looking this grown-up before, wearing her hair in a lovely curly bob and accessorizing with both diamond chandelier earrings and Liam Hemsworth, and chalk it up to, well, growing up. Sky Ferreira chose a shiny, silver sleeveless gown pleated all the way to the floor. She paired it with over-the-shoulder blonde waves, dark crimson lips, and a perfected starlet pout. Katy Perry looked beatific in that blue bob we're still totally enamored with and a sparkling silver Blumarine gown with circular shapes and a sheer bodice. Seriously, how gorge is this gal? We love that she always adds a pop of color (in this case, blue eye shadow to match her hair) and isn't afraid to smile and look approachable. Also? She celebrated Oscar week by posing with Uggie the dog from the Oscar-winning film, The Artist.

Black is always the ubiquitous color (non-color?) of choice at awards shows and parties, and at the Elton John bash, we thought Nina Dobrev stunned in her fall 2012 J. Mendel gown. The cutouts at the shoulders and structured corset that fanned out into a mini-peplum gave the dress some modern edge while still accentuating the classic full-skirted drama of it all. Also? Look at this gigantasaurus, super thick side fishtail braid! It's glorious and really makes this whole ensemble interesting. Adam Lambert always stands out with his more glammed-up outfits, but we loved this elegant three-piece suit with bow tie and spiked black hair. (THOSE EYEBROWS. #swoon) Rounding out the black dress brigade was the lovely Sarah Hyland and her sweet Collette Dinnigan cocktail dress with a tulle overlay and light lace frothing at the neckline. Both age-appropriate and elegant with a red satin clutch, matching lips, and platform peep-toes, we applaud this dark ladylike grace.

This Year Made Me Take My Reproductive Health Much More Seriously
It's never too late!
Guys, I think we're close enough at this point that I can tell you: I am a packaging snob. If a beauty product is poorly or stupidly packaged, I probably wouldn't glance twice at it. It's not necessarily just a looks thing — it also goes for functionality and tactile feel (actually font choice is a big deal to me as well). I can only assume that a brand that doesn't put much thought into how they present their products probably doesn't put that much thought into how they've formulated said product. That said, I've been fooled before! Some products have come in really meh packaging and turned out to be great! I don't want to throw shade at products I like that fit this bill but... they exist.
I semi-hate to say it but the products I most generally dismiss due to their choice of using Papyrus font tend to live in the realm of "natural beauty." Lots of face oils, dry powders you have to mix with other stuff, and sometimes things that just have a raw inelegant feel when you put it on. Also a lot of really emphatic botanical leafy-looking illustrations and burlap-y textures to imply just how so-from-nature a product is. I get it, you're unprocessed. Calm down. Where is the elegance? People use to know how to dress!
Anyway. Natural beauty products — I'm into them insofar as they fulfill two items of criteria: it's safe and it works. That's mostly it! Is the product safe to use? That's a green light. But does it actually do the thing it claims to do? Ah now that's the real test. I mean, this goes for any beauty product for me, mostly because I get a ton of stuff thrown at me so keeping an open mind makes my job easier.
I have an innate skepticism towards beauty products that lead heavily on the natural angle because as many of y'all know — "natural" doesn't really have a meaning in terms of anything other than marketing language. Same goes for organic. It's not necessarily better than products with synthetic ingredients but it definitely likes to position itself as better. The one thing I do appreciate from some natural beauty products, however, is a simplified ingredient list. It takes the headache out of guessing what scientific term actually just means Vitamin E (it's tocopherol) and the like. Another thing I appreciate is beautiful packaging (beauty snob — remember?). As an aspiring minimalist, this tickles my minimal bone (?) for beautiful products that are simple but effective.
Let's look at some, shall we?
From & Other Stories' new *Natural* beauty line
& Other Stories, a brand that already offers very nice-looking and nice-working beauty products gets all philosophical with said beauty brand. Well, not the whole thing, but a collection. And this collection happens to be even more beautiful than the usual. Glass bottles, gold detailing, and luxurious feeling and smelling products. The concept behind the collection grabs its inspiration from what I essentially see as French girl beauty which seems odd because it's Swedish and I feel like Swedish beauty is comparable and needs no other national qualifiers. Maybe it's like me trying to test out wide-leg pants in my wardrobe — it's fun to adopt another kind of chic even if it's just for now.
The products are all made in France, from conception to sourcing the ingredients (which are all biodegradable) to "capture the spirit of the French coast, the forest and the herbal garden."
The Caliper Body Oil smells like sweet ferns or what I image dewy pine needles and moss would smell like. It's earthy but with a crisp sweetness to it. Three cold-pressed oils (walnut, hazelnut, and virgin plum) make for a super hydrating oil for body and hair. I like that it's not too heavy so you can slick it on and not feel buttered up, and it's also a great hair-end texturizer, just sealing frazzled ends but not weighing anything down necessarily. The Floribunda Lip Balm is one of the fanciest lip balms I've tried. I mean, it's $29, so it's... it's up there. But it's the perfect marriage between oil and wax so it's a really soft balm that feels like it's actually moisturizing and not just sitting on top of my lips like a wax seal. Also, it's rose-scented with honey and saffron, which is a deliciously dreamy scent to be licking off my lips throughout the wear. I'm a hand cream junkie from about October to April, so the Castes Hand Cream is a godsend. It's got honey milk and propolis for ultimate plump-y moisture and makes my hands feel like I have silk pillow for hands.
I've been eyeing Grown Alchemist for a while — literally, their products are always popping up in my Instagram feed because obviously their packaging is very Instagram-aspirational. I considered them cult luxury beauty for the wealthy naturalist considering the most beautiful bare-faced women seem to use it the most. Also because it's fancy (read: pricey). Maybe you've mistaken it for Aesop on sight, but this Aussie brand holds its own. Its ingredients and directions are generally printed in a tl;dr paragraph on one side of its packaging, not over-embellishing but not underselling itself. The proof is in the pudding (or tube) with these guys.
The Deep Cleansing Masque is probably the most nourishing clay mask I've tried. I'm so use to clay masks sucking every molecule of moisture out of my face that I immediately slather on any hydrating serum and oil afterwards, but this one was super well-balanced. Its pore-sucking was on the mild side but that's fine — not everyone needs their pores eviscerated all the time. It's a white clay formula with wheatgerm, ginko and cranberry seed to gently suggest that your pores empty themselves of excess sebum and your skin cells buff up and shine. The Hydra-Repair Day Cream is surprisingly rich feeling without being greasy. You're supposed to massage it in, not just slick it on and go — that's the key the using it so it actually absorbs and nourishes. Camellia and rose hip oil moisturize and biosaccharides from cane sugar work to repair UV damage. You can actually use this day or night or, you know, whenever. The little black tube — the Watermelon & Vanilla Lip Balm — kind of masquerades as a lip gloss, which I don't hate. You get a lot of shine (depending on how much you glob on) but also watermelon extract so it subtly tastes like a jolly rancher, hehe. The formula is a blend of rich essential fatty acids (feat. sweet almond oil, rose hip oil, jojoba oils) so it's a bit oily-feeling but way, way hydrating (which is all we really want, right?).
Look at this! What is it? A chic monogrammed USB drive? No! It's a lip thingie!
I always knew that Kjaer Weis made beautiful beauty products but it was actually news to me to learn that they were of the all-natural agenda.
Their lip tint is housed in a weighty solid metal case that feels very luxurious to hold and the magnetic sliding lid offers another slick experiential feature — all of which comes at a price. This Lip Tint (in Lover's Choice) is $49. The actual lip color itself is well-pigmented and balmy-feeling, coming off like a sheer lipstick if you build it up. Something to know about this luxury natural brand — they offer refills. Kjaer Weis uses similar packaging for all their makeup — eyeshadow, foundation, highlighter, blush — and each has refills so you don't have to chuck the metal once you're done. Less waste! More luxury!
Let me start off by saying my initial introduction to Gloss Moderne was through those little sample pouches. I rarely use samples but since it handily came perforated-ly attached with shampoo, conditioner, and serum, I thought, why not? It was a revelation, people.
So I was stoked to get the full-size shampoo and conditioner duo. Why? They are so good. Natural or no, it's addictive, and I say this as a person with probably the most damaged hair you know. Imagine what these could do to someone with virgin/healthy hair! The power! The glory! The super shiny hair flips!
The formula is coconut-oil based and sulfate-free (and paraben-free if you care about that sort of thing) with super mild cleansers (paramount for someone like me with very dry hair) and very emollient conditioning. It has that fancy resort season coconut-y scent. This is probably the most expensive shampoo/conditioner duo I've messed with other than Shu Uemura, but it's definitely had the most wow-factor after a single use — which, let's be real, is priceless.
I appreciate the simplicity of this unadorned bottle of bath oil with a sprig of a Christmas tree in it. It actually does kind of smell like a Christmas tree but it has the non-denominational moniker, Oil Bath Winter. Its name may defy sentence structure, but this bath oil from Susanne Kaufmann is very up there in terms of ultimate luxury bath products. Essential oils of cinnamon, clove and orange make bath time into a sort of winter forest stew and you're a wood nymph just trying to Calgon take me away-yourself as you balance your iPad on the lid of your toilet to stream the White Christmas episode of Black Mirror. Truly, there is no more relaxing way to spend your time in a relatively small amount of warm water.
One may scoff at using such expensive luxury bath oil, but just try it and tell me you don't feel like a satin-skinned goddess capable of felling empires with your soft and rapturous beauty afterwards — you say that to my face, you liar!

How It Works:

The video below shows the vaporizer model in action:

<object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/kkezhZPq-eU&rel=1"><param name="wmode" value="transparent">
 <embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/kkezhZPq-eU&rel=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object>

It is not complicated. Anyone can do it easily. There is no modification needed to your car engine. A quart size (950 cc) water container is placed under the car hood. Fill it with distilled water and about 4 to 6 teaspoons of pure baking soda. This mini HHO generator kit then gets vacuum and electricity (about 12 volts) from the engine and breaks down the water into Brown's Gas or HHO as show in the video below.

<object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/Dk7mWXYkyKA&rel=1"><param name="wmode" value="transparent">
 <embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/Dk7mWXYkyKA&rel=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object>

Brown's Gas is injected into the engine's intake manifold, ie carburetor. See the diagram below to understand the set up. The entire design as you can see is simple to assemble, yet effective and completely safe. The entire set of instructions including the HHO generator plans is available in our guide. It will take you no more than 2 hours to set up everything.

The hydrogen generator draws its power from the electrical battery in our cars. You do not need any relays at all. Basically, it makes use of 12 volts of your batter via the ignition switch. This is so that hydrogen production stops together with the engine. It is truly hydrogen power on demand. The generator is fuse protected and uses only about 1 to 3 Amps of current.

As you can see, we make use of stainless steel spiral coils rather than plates. This actually converts water into HHO using lesser electric power from the car battery. The spirals are easily bent to size and uncomplicated to make unless the plates of the older models which required a cutting machinery.

This section is a bit technical, but if you are a car fanatic, you probably will love it. If not, simply go straight to download your full "Run Car On Water" instructions guide.

Essentially, when the mini-system is ready, water is pumped on demand to maintain the liquid level in the chamber. Electrodes are vibrated with a 0.5 – 5A electrical pulse which then breaks down the H2O into H2 and O2.

The chemical reaction takes place like this: 2H2O => 2H2 + O2

Once the pressure hits between 30 and 60 PSI, you can then turn the key and go. Step on the pedal to power up the electrodes, and blast the vapor to the cylinders. Fuel on demand!

Set the idle max-flow rate to optimize the use of that power. Free energy from the tap water comes from its latent energy and is enough to power the engine, drive the alternator and belt-driven accessories. From there, the alternator can run the various electrical loads (between 10 to 20 amperes) plus the low current needed to run the fuel vapor reaction.

Sounds complicated? Maybe. But it works well!

Want to learn how to convert your car to run on water as fuel?

Before we talk about that, my advice to you is this. If you are a first timer or know nuts about it, use this on an old car that is of little or no value to you. Perhaps a car that you no longer use and is tucked away in the garage would be a perfect candidate.

Does it mean that the method is risky and does not work? Absolutely NOT!

It's just like following a cake recipe to bake a cake. You know what I mean?

By the way, the method works on Tap Water. You do not have to use distilled water and so on. Also, you may want to know that it also works on your truck, RV, motorcycle and just about any vehicle that runs on gas. Cool?

Converting Your Car To Run On Water Fuel - The Plan

The whole "Car On Water Fuel" system requires us building and installing a simple low-cost mini-system for running our vehicle (the internal combustion engine) on tap water using off-the-shelf parts.

This mini-system will make use of our existing battery and electrical system in the car as the power source to convert tap water into gases like hydrogen and oxygen. These vapors are then burnt in the engine.

You will need to plug this kit into your carburetor with simple off-the-shelf fittings. The carburetor or carb is found within the internal combustion engine and is meant to maintain the air and fuel in right proportions for even combustion.

Basically, you will be installing a plastic water tank, a control circuit (CC), a reaction chamber, a high-pressure carb/FI fitting, 3 gauges and finally hooking this into your vehicle's carb/FI.

This is a "on-demand" water-burning system. This means that it works when you need it. By cranking on the gas pedal or throttle, you electrically create the vapor for instant consumption on demand according to the flow rate you desire from idle to maximum power.

This is how the entire system works. Ready to run your car on water now?

The Answer is a resounding YES! While there is a lot of thermochemical energy in gasoline, there is even more energy in water. According to the Department of Energy DOE, water has at least 40% more energy.

You probably are not aware but the "internal combustion" that takes place in the engine is actually a thermo vapor process. No liquid is involved in the reaction. Most of the gasoline in the internal combustion engine is actually consumed in the catalytic converter. This indirectly means that most of our fuel is spent on cooling down the combustion process which is both inefficient and induces pollution.

Your can run on water using a water-burning hybrid that separates the water content into a gas called HHO (H-H-O). Another name for HHO is Brown's Gas or Hydroxy. This product burns well, is efficient and is totally not pollutive. The residual composite or end product is H2O which is essentially, water!

How much water is needed to run your car?

Very little. By that, one quart or 0.25 gallon provides well over 1800 gallons of HHO gas. This amount is more than enough to last for months. 4 quarts equal 1 gallon by the way.

In the process of running your car on water, you save on fuel costs, get a cleaner engine and enjoy greater fuel efficiency. Also, you are protecting the environment from getting polluted!

Industry experts are saying that such technology has resulted in many successful case studies all over the world. Once the water-burning technology becomes a standard in automobiles, every driver can enjoy the cost savings of running cars on water fuel.

However, this technology will probably only become The standard as early as 2012, 4 years from now. In the meantime, you can still make use of a "run your car on water do it yourself kit".

So, the answer now is clear. Your car can run on water. Start now!

Why are Gas Prices Rising?

Gasoline prices are rising. In California, it has hit a record high of $4.42 per gallon. Contrast this to a decade ago when gas prices were below $1 per gallon. In fact, since 2004, the hike has not ceased and there are real fears that it will edge closer to $5 soon.

Economists have since correlated the gas prices directly to the oil prices. For each $1 increase per barrel of oil, you will see a corresponding 2.5 cents increase in gas price per gallon.

Just around this time in June 2008, the prices of oil per barrel has risen to $139 per barrel, and if the predictions of economists are right, it could hit $150 per barrel, an increase of $11! That translates to more than 27 cents increase per gallon of gasoline.

The short-term events like hurricanes, refinery fires and so on have had their knee-jerk impact on the prices. However, it seems now that the long term economic impacts are at work, so it looks like gas prices have not seen the highest in history.

"It's very unlikely, at least in the next decade or so, to have prices sharply lower than what we are seeing now", quoted J. Sweeney, a Stanford professor and director of the Precourt Institute for Energy Efficiency.

One major reason why gas prices are rising is the growing world demand for fuel. USA, China and India are primary drivers for the global demand.

Even the smaller nations are also boosting their demand for fuel as their economies begin to transform and morph. Worldwide industrialization is pushing the pace for oil consumption.

In a short note, the world demand is quickly outstripping the supply. So that explains why gas prices are rising faster than ever before.

The Daily News
Published December 14, 2006
LA MARQUE - Gulf Greyhound Park officials, who say they're struggling to
make ends meet, will go before state regulators in Austin today asking to
significantly reduce the number of races offered at the track.
The track operators also warned that Texas Racing Commission proposals to
increase state license fees could force even more schedule cuts at the
track, where attendance has dropped while costs are rising.
Operators want the commission, which regulates the industry, to OK canceling
greyhound races on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. At present, the track offers 12
races on each of those nights.
General manager Sally Briggs said Tuesdays and Wednesdays are the track's
least profitable nights.
If approved, the track's schedule would be 88 races a week next year,
compared with 104 in 2006.
In a Nov. 27 letter to the commission's executive secretary, Charla Ann
King, Briggs said proposals by the commission to increase race-day fees,
along with a new yearly license fee, would cause more problems for the
"I am at a complete loss as to how the Texas Racing Commission thinks we can
afford such extravagant additions to an already constrained situation,"
Briggs wrote in the letter.
The track's budget for live race-day fees it pays to the state was $237,430
in 2006. But, if the commission adopted proposed increases, the fees would
climb to $390,000. Add a proposal by the commission's staff to tack on a
yearly "active license fee" of $25,000, and the track would have to budget
$415,000 for fees this year, Briggs wrote.
"If any of these plans are adopted, Gulf Greyhound Park will most likely be
cutting our performance schedule even more drastically than we are forced to
do now."
Briggs did not make information about the track's revenues, losses or
attendance available this week. But information provided by La Marque city
officials showed a continued slide in attendance.
The city receives 15 cents for each person who enters the park. In 2006, it
received $39,626 from the racetrack, compared with $44,167 in 2005. So some
264,173 people visited the racetrack in 2006, compared with 294,446 the year
before, a 10.3 percent decrease in attendance.
The track has made efforts to cut costs, including closing the fourth-floor
Horizon Clubhouse, which accommodated about 1,800 people. Two years ago, the
track also closed the second floor on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings.
In 2002, the track had about 740 staff. It now has 319, Briggs said. The
track reduced staff through attrition, not filling positions of employees
who resigned, retired or were fired.
"I'm proud to say that we have never laid anyone off," Briggs said Tuesday.
Two years ago, the track imposed a hiring freeze. Employees no longer
receive bonuses at the end of the year, Briggs wrote in her letter to the
commission. And most have not received an increase in pay for several years,
she said.
"We have reviewed every cost in our budget to determine what could be done
to 'make ends meet,'" Briggs wrote in the letter. "We have managed to run
our operation with a 'skeleton' crew and yet are able to serve our customers
in a positive manner."
The track also is consider ing raising the grandstand price of admission to
$2 from $1 to cover escalating costs and eliminating the parking fee to
boost attendance, Briggs said. Neither of those measures needs approval from
the commission.
Overall, efforts to work more efficiently are paying off, Briggs said.
"It's a tough industry all across the state," she said. "We are actually
doing well and improving ways to cut costs and trying to be a little more
The Daily News last week filed a request under the Texas Public Information
Act with the commission for financial information about the track. Officials
with the commission this week said attorneys must review that request and
did not provide the information.
Gulf Greyhound Park, which offers greyhound racing and pari-mutuel wagering,
opened in 1992 to much fanfare. But it has been unable to reverse downward
trends in attendance and revenue.
Dog tracks are up against horse racing facilities in Texas and other forms
of gambling, including the lottery and Louisiana casinos.

epoxy resin, fiberglass, and paint over cardboard

Born in 1943, British sculptor Garth Evans holds a critical place in the history of British sculpture as an important link between the generation of Anthony Caro and the generation of Tony Cragg and Anthony Gormley (both his students). His decades-long investigation into sculpture's most inherent properties – volume, surface, weight, and scale – has produced a variety of dynamic works that rely on contradiction and innovation. In this work from 1989, a folded form juts out from the wall, covered in painted and collaged sections that cause the piece to hover in a space between pure abstraction and found object. The viewer must move around the sculpture to completely understand it, and the title hints at the active relationship between interior and exterior. Evans' work is included in numerous museum collections worldwide.

I know that some of you may think that I`m crazy to post this summer look in the middle of the autumn. But actually it is just a beginning of the summer in Brazil! And I think many of you dolls are also living in places, where the weather is still super hot. Anyways, I got this dress about a month ago from a Shopbop and was so excited to share this outfit with you girls, that I couldn't wait till the next year :)
This dip-dyed striped dress is by BB Dakota and I picked it simply because I always wanted to have some marine inspired clothes in my closet. It is a maxi dress made of a very light, almost weightless material - gauze, so I was feeling absolutely fresh walking in this dress at 35 C (95 F) degrees. I think it is perfect for a super hot summer weather and it looks so feminine.
For the accessories, I use a tribal necklace, made of shell and plastic charms. This necklace was made in Turkey and it is a present from my lovely sister. The hat I got from C&A, but unfortunately I could not find a link for you anymore. To complete the outfit I choose a very simple sandals by Ipanema. This kind of flip-flops are very popular here in Brazil.
That`s all dolls, I hope you liked my look, please let me know what you think about it! I need to say that navy is my new favourite colour and I really enjoyed to wear maxi dress. I never thought it would be so comfortable:)
Are you also into marine fashion trend?
Hugs & kisses,
Liza xxxoo

Unowhatimeanharry: Now runs in the famous green and gold of JP McManus
Views from connections ahead of Friday's Long Distance Hurdle at Newbury, including Harry Fry on Unowhatimeanharry.
Trainer Harry Fry is keeping his fingers crossed the prolific Unowhatimeanharry can raise his game this season ahead of his return to action in the bet365 Long Distance Hurdle at Newbury.
The eight-year-old enjoyed a spectacular campaign last season, winning each of his five starts culminating with Cheltenham Festival glory in the Albert Bartlett Novices' Hurdle.
Leading owner JP McManus has since snapped up the much-improved staying hurdler and having missed the West Yorkshire Hurdle at Wetherby and last weekend's Fixed Brush Handicap Hurdle at Haydock on account of unsuitable ground, he is now ready to make his seasonal reappearance.
Fry said: "He had a great season last year and never stopped improving. He's going to have to improve again if he's to hold his own in the three-mile hurdle division this season, but he seems in good form at home and this will tell us exactly where we are with him.
"He's ready to start. We declared him last Saturday, but the ground was very heavy and he'd have had to carry top-weight, so we decided to wait for this. This race will probably tell us a bit more about where we stand."
Unowhatimeanharry faces eight opponents in Friday's Grade Two feature, with the Nigel Twiston-Davies-trained Ballyoptic heading Sky Bet's market.
He won his first three starts for the Naunton handler last season, including a Grade One victory at Aintree, and impressed on his comeback at Chepstow.
The six-year-old was not completely done with when falling at the final flight in the West Yorkshire Hurdle and jockey Ryan Hatch is hopeful he can return to winning ways.
He said: "He was staying on well at Wetherby. I obviously think he would have won, a few of the other jockeys might have thought differently. He's schooled well since, I'm looking forward to riding him and hopefully he goes to Newbury and runs a big race."
Snow Falcon is an interesting Irish challenger for trainer Noel Meade, turning out just 12 days after winning the Grade Two Lismullen Hurdle
"He's travelled over well and the girl that is with him is very happy with him," said Meade.
"He's been in good form and his weight is good, so hopefully he's had time enough since his last run. If he gets a clear round and everything goes well, we'd be hopeful he'll give them something to think about."
Maximiser looked an exciting prospect for trainer Simon West after winning his first two starts over hurdles in 2014, but then spent almost a year on the sidelines. He made an encouraging comeback and chasing debut when narrowly denied by Silsol at Carlisle, but fell at this meeting 12 months ago and has run just once since, finishing a close second in a Listed hurdle race at Auteuil at the end of March.
West said: "It started going wrong for him at Newbury last year and we tried to get a bit of compensation at Auteuil because the season had not unfolded as we would have liked. The RSA Chase is the main aim but there is not the right race up north in my eyes to go back novice chasing, so Newbury over hurdles looks a good starting point.
"He is unexposed and we still think there is plenty of potential to play with. It is now up to him to prove himself."
Menorah runs over hurdles for the first time since December 2011, having missed last weekend's Betfair Chase at Haydock due to the testing conditions.
The Nick Williams-trained veteran Reve De Sivola, Ubak, Shades Of Midnight and The Romford Pele complete the line-up.

Tulip on Vinyl Record
12" Vinyl Record SOLD - I love the colors and the unique perspective of this one. In preparing the "canvas" for this painting I applyed a mix of titanium white and light yellow cadmium with a palette knife to add a great deal of texture all over. I used thinned oils for the subsequent layers, where I defined the shapes and values, leaving some of the original background exposed for the small amount of negative space in this piece.
