Although we didn't realise it at the time, Detroit: Become Human has existed in some form for the last seven years. In 2012, Quantic Dream unveiled a seven-minute tech demo running in real-time on a PlayStation 3. The demo, which was a year old when it was shown at GDC, was meant as a starting point for a discussion on the merits of using live actors to portray characters in video games. It was an exploratory topic that by today's mo-capped-riddled game design standards seems rather quaint. I remember being enamoured with the "Kara" tech demo and the possibilities of playing games in which characters displayed convincing, emotional responses to gameplay actions. Of course, Quantic Dream went on to release the Ellen Page thriller Beyond: Two Souls instead, and all hope of a story-driven video game starring super-emotional androids had to be put on ice.
Fast-forward to 2018 and, hey, look! It's that Kara android from that tech demo from seven years ago! And she's in a game about androids slowly breaking their programming and becoming self-aware. And game director David Cage is still doing what he does best: creating some pretty great characters and then forcing players to make god-awful choices that leave you feeling very depressed about everything all the time forever because you made bad decisions and look at what a monster you are – you monster.
Detroit: Become Human is one of those offbeat, interactive story games that are basically contemporary versions of those Choose Your Own Adventure books from the eighties and nineties. If you played the excellent Heavy Rain, then you'll know exactly what to expect in Detroit. I went in expecting David Cage's famously not-so-subtle take on potentially sensitive subjects, and I got that at times; but I also got completely swept up in Quantic Dream's best work to date.
Throughout the lengthy, meandering narrative of Detroit: Become Human, you'll play as three different androids all with their own self-contained stories, cast of supporting characters, and agendas. All three of their stories are set on a collision course when an android revolution kicks into high gear and plunges the technocentric future city of Detroit into disarray. This sparks an investigation by CyberLife (the corporation that designs and manufactures the androids) and the police force to try to contain and understand a growing threat that's unravelling the societal status quo.
Kara is an AX-400 model that's designed to do the housekeeping and watch the children. The family she works for isn't exactly what one would call stable, and soon enough you're forced into scenarios depicting child abuse and domestic violence (for those paying attention, this scene sparked a tabloid backlash and online debate when it was shown at the Paris Games Week in October last year). For Kara, this harrowing awakening is just the start of her journey, and soon she finds herself doing anything to protect the child that's been put in her care.
Markus is an RK-200 model that was custom built to assist an artist whose many patrons include the founder of CyberLife, Elijah Kamski. Markus is, like Kara, a helper in a domestic sense, but the two characters have vastly different working environments that are meant to highlight class divides within the futuristic Detroit. Markus becomes the leader of the android revolution and is torn between pacifism and violent reaction.
Finally Connor is an RK-800 android and a prototype designed by CyberLife to assist the Detroit Police Department in tracking down Deviants (the term used to describe the androids that have somehow broken their inhibitive coding and become self-aware). For Connor, the growing number of android Deviants and how to stop them is at the forefront of his coding.
As in previous Quantic Dream titles, the core game concept on offer is narrative decisions. Throughout each chapter you're presented with multiple choices that send the game's plotlines branching off in different directions. The way you interact with other characters, your conversation choices, and your actions will all have far-reaching repercussions that can yield very different outcomes. At the end of each chapter you're presented with a flowchart that shows you at which point you made a large decision that resulted in your game heading down a specific narrative path. A multitude of smaller decisions are also displayed, and even some of those seemingly innocuous choices open up story paths in later chapters. It's a dizzyingly ambitious narrative design, and the sometimes weighty decisions and their results make for compelling reasons to keep playing. Just like getting lost in a good book, I often found myself thinking, "Alright just one more chapter then I'll stop."
Detroit: Become Human is familiarly limited in its gameplay and control schemes. Every action is a contextual one, and the game has a lot of quick-time events that might put a few people off. Luckily there is an option to remove a lot of the player inputs to focus exclusively on plot choices instead. I wouldn't recommend choosing this if you're looking for a more interactive experience, however.
Despite this, there's an odd sense of player control when you're given so many opportunities to guide the entire game's story. There were moments, however, when I found that the developers were a little heavy-handed in their doling out of negative repercussions: "Oh-ho! You shot and killed that policeman who just mercilessly shot and killed ten androids? Well, joke's on you – he became a father three months ago. You monster." These moments don't come up all that often, but they're there and they create this stark juxtaposition when compared to how deftly other subjects and outcomes are handled.
The three playable characters have very different stories to tell despite their common backdrop. I did find myself really enjoying the character of Connor and the awkward situation he finds himself in. He's assigned to assist the typical, grizzled noir cop Lieutenant Hank Anderson in tracking down Deviants. Together the pair must figure out what is causing androids to break through their barrier coding to gain free-will, a phenomenon that normally results in human murders. As Connor is a prototype and the most advanced AI CyberLife has built, he's seemingly not as vulnerable to the Deviant exploit that's causing the problem. However, with each decision you make as Connor, his programming integrity is either compromised or strengthened, and depending how far down which path you've taken him, he begins to grapple with his own identity and existence. This obviously puts him at odds with his own people: does he stay loyal to CyberLife and the mission for which his entire existence is built on, or does he side with his fellow androids? Add in Hank's gradually altering opinion of androids in general and you've got a fascinating dynamic with a lot of Blade Runner and Terminator motifs. I thoroughly enjoyed the scenarios in Connor's plotline and how out of place the character is made to feel in almost every instance.
Detroit can sometimes stumble over its own ambition, though, which results in a handful of moments that don't hit the emotional or impactful mark they were obviously aiming for, and instead come across as contrived. Those moments, however, are few, and I found myself engrossed in this game's story and its characters. But it isn't just good story telling and impressive narrative branches that stood out: there are a lot of lovely little bits of attention to detail scattered throughout the title. For example, Kara's entire gait and mannerism changes the second she breaks through her programming and gains free-will. Before that she exudes polite, no-questions-asked servitude; quietly waiting with her hands behind her back and a pleasant smile on her face. Once she becomes self-aware there's this subtle shift in her body language – her hands are clenched and at her side, she walks with purpose, her expression is of a calm determination. It's these little character details that make so many moments in Detroit: Become Human memorable and convincing.
I had loose ends at the end of my story which is frustrating but that's the nature of a game with a lot of choices: you might see the start of a sub-plot, but your choices mean you're branched off in another direction that doesn't necessarily conclude the sub-plot you just glimpsed. What that does mean is that there's definite scope for multiple playthroughs, which is something I've already begun.

CARIS Camden ReportAndrew Penny
We have had an eventful year at CARIS. The 2017/18 Season of the C4WS shelter was a success and you can read about it on our Annual Report (available in Church). It was the first under our new project manager Nikki Barnett, who has settled in well and is now navigating us through another very busy season. St John's hosts the shelter on Saturday nights and despite the somewhat cramped space and lack of a shower, ours is one of the guests' favourite venues, for warmth of welcome and, especially, terrific food.
In 2017/18 we had the great good fortune to be chosen as Councillor Richard Cotton's Mayoral Charity of the year. He was an eloquent and enthusiastic champion for our cause, and the plight of the homeless generally. Various fundraising events raised about £40,000, which, while not a total solution to our financial problems, has certainly brought greater stability. More importantly the Mayor's interest has raised awareness of the problems of homelessness and what C4WS is doing about them.
The Jobs Club has continued to be very active, helping guests to identify jobs they could do, preparing them for the application process and with the help of individual mentors helping with the start of employment. For many guests, notably EEA migrants, getting paid work is the only way they can obtain settled accommodation, as they have no recourse to public funds.
New initiatives during the year have included a hosting scheme and a Sunday club.
Home From Home. The scheme is for guests who need accommodation over a finite period, (as, for example, he or she waits for a Home Office decision or needs time to save up for a deposit for a flat). We have found people prepared to let such a guest stay in a spare room, thus freeing up a space in the shelter proper or providing a guest with accommodation outside the shelter season. It's proved an enjoyable and satisfying experience for both hosts and guests. If you have a spare room and are able to take someone in for usually a month or so, please let Sam at C4W know, via me or the website.
Sunday Club. A major problem for the guests in the shelter is that on Sunday there is nowhere for them to go during the day. To meet this need we have started a Sunday Club, in conjunction with the Living Centre just north of the British Library. There is a warm space, lunch and laundry facilities, with films in the afternoon and regular visits from an art therapy workshop. The club has been well attended and makes a huge difference to guests with no base during the day.
CARIS Camden Families.
C4WS and the winter shelters was, for the first 13 years of CARIS' existence, effectively it's only project, and it remains the greater part of our work. Catching up fast however, in size and activities, is CARIS Camden Families, run by our previous Shelter Coordinator, Becky Walker. CCF runs an after school club two afternoons a week in a temporary hostel in Chalk Farm and a homework club in a hostel in England's Lane. The hostel accommodation is very cramped with families sharing one room. There is almost nowhere for children to play and nowhere quiet to do homework.
The afterschool club is not spacious in a basement in the hostel, but it is well equipped with toys and books and plenty of volunteers to help and give parents a break. The homework club was originally intended for secondary children, but in fact meets the growing need of primary children, especially when, as is often the case, the parents' English is poor.
An unintended, but welcome side effect of these clubs has been that they have become a social focus for parents, especially mothers, not infrequently on their own. The opportunity has been taken to provide welfare support and the skills and experience developed in the Jobs Club in C4WS has been transferred to mostly mothers, who would like to work, and will need to when their children are older.
In the holidays CCF has run enrichment programmes, taking parents and children to various exciting (and free!) venues around London and once to the seaside- any entirely novel experience for many parents and children. It has also helped to open up for parents the opportunities for (often, free) activities for children.
Thank you for supporting CARIS; it has made a significant and beneficial improvement to many lives. If you would like to know more, please ask me. As well as C4WS' report, CCF's first report is also available in church, or from me.

A few months ago, I wrote about being unable to purchase Sara Bareilles' single "King Of Anything" and instead purchased a song of the same name by a group called Boywonderbread. I used this to point out the fact that releasing a song for promotion and not having the same song for sale would just lead to your competition gaining those sales. So now that time has past, did Sara lose out by not selling singles in those early days?
The answer appears to be no. Sara's album debuted at #1 on the album chart last week and her single is a Top 200 selling single for the year so far. Pretty good statistics. In fact, there was a sound reason for keeping the single out of the market in those early weeks. iTunes had a big promotion of the single a few weeks after my blog entry. According to the label, they waited until that promotion date to maximize those first week sales on the retailer that drove much of their sales on the first album. It also appears that they correctly strategized a good release week with little singer/songwriter competition to secure the top of the chart.
So which strategy is right? Release right away with promotional push or wait for smart sales windows?
The answer is…it depends.
If you are an unsigned artist and a major organization takes interest in you, then you need to do all you can to coordinate all necessary tools to strike when the major organization does. When I discussed Christina Perri a few months back, they timed their iTunes release to occur the same week that the TV placement did. That way it was easily found both in search and in the new release section. Net result was a huge selling single. Meanwhile, Cee-lo's viral song "Fuck You" was not placed when the song initially went viral and it was a week later before you could buy it, easily losing thousands in sales.
Or did it? I recently spoke at 2 conferences and asked the room how many of them knew the Cee-lo song. The answer was only around 10% of the room. And these are music biz folks. If you extrapolate that out, it would suggest that the sales losses were likely minimal. Because as "viral" as Cee-lo got, viral is not a mass placement. Christina Perri was different because her placement was mass. Had it not been up on iTunes, her economic loss would have been substantial.
But here's something interesting that Sara's sales brings out. Radio is no longer mass either. The label appears to have correctly surmised that the initial few weeks of radio and viral promotion would minimally impact sales. But retail promotional space and TV appearances are crucial drivers that must be coordinated. Unless radio is truly coordinated to have many stations playing it heavily, the sales loss may not be as greatly feared.
On the other hand…if you truly have a major hit, or a hit within the futurehit.DNA model, you want those sales to be felt early as you may get more sales per exposure. Many songs recently have had minimal chart impact or any mass media for that matter, yet they sell substantially well because they are reactive. Cee-lo, once again, is an example of this and that suggests he did lose a lot of sales by missing the first week of viral push.
If you are reaching the conclusion that there is no right answer, you are right. At least if you are on a major label with resources to coordinate mass exposure platforms. If you are new and unsigned, what this shows you is you should coordinate everything before releasing a single. Don't just put it up on your Youtube channel to stream and then figure out retail. Take a minute to go thru the following checklist:
* Am I set up for release on all digital retail outlets and on what date?
* Am I set to place it up on all my streaming accounts on the same day?
* Am I set to send promotional links by myself or thru a publicist to blogs and music writers on the same day?
* Do I have a video (even if it's only stills) to go up on Youtube on the same day?
* Do I have a newsletter to go to my databae that same day?
* Do I have a blog entry ready to go up?
* Is my schedule fully cleared so I can do nothing else that day but coordinate and promote my songs release?
The obvious element that has not changed is planning. Indie artists seldom do it. Majors do it most of the time. Epic Records did it with Sara Bareilles and had success. Elektra Records did not appear to with Cee-lo and had to catch up. Planning is free. Use it every time you release music.

15 things you should know about Printed Circuit Boards
Printed Circuit Boards is a plastic board that is made for connecting the electronic segments and parts together. They are generally used in a wide range of electronics, from PCs to digital clocks. The board itself is certainly not a conductive material and frequently plastic or fiberglass is utilized as the base material. The essential use of PCBs is to control where the power is coordinated too.

Adult Discipleship Ministry Lead Team North region, Biblical Education, Ordination – Post Falls Campus
My Family: wife Linda (married 08/19/94); son Jacob (15), daughter Rachel (13) and son Caleb (10).
My Story: I guess one of the ways I've described myself is, "I'm a Timothy Christian," which is simply to say that I identify with Timothy – both his childhood and his adulthood. My "sincere faith" was, indeed, present first in my grandparents and then my parents and now lives in me! Born and raised in Spokane, WA, I've been a believer, a God-follower, a Jesus-freak for as long as I can remember – feeling God's call into full time ministry when I was in high school. After graduating from high school I entered my "Jonah-phase" ignoring God's call in pursuit of my own plans for my life attending Pacific Lutheran University with the high aspirations of graduating with a degree in the sciences and heading off to medical school to become a pediatrician (think Patch Adams!). Well…. after being swallowed whole by a whale called "Organic Chemistry, Micro Biology, Physics and some horrible math class" God had my full and undivided attention! And the rest, they say is history; truly "his-story!" I crammed a religion major into 3 semesters, graduated, took a year off to catch my breath, get married and headed off to Luther Seminary in Minneapolis, Minnesota where I earned a Master's of Divinity degree with a concentration in ministry to youth and family through Youth Leadership Inc.
Four years later, in 1998, I was serving my first church in Gig Harbor, WA as an associate in youth and family ministry. I served in that capacity for 5 years before becoming the solo pastor at the same church for two years, until being officially called as their lead pastor. I continued serving in that capacity for another 5 years before God called me to step away. To trust and obey. To wait on Him to show me the next call. Finally, in August of 2011 the call from Real Life came, and so did we!
We are blessed to be a part of the team and are fully committed to doing our part to live out our historic faith right along with you as we reach the world for Jesus one person at a time.
Favorite Verse: "Always be ready to make your defense to anyone who demands from you an accounting of the hope that is in you, yet do it with gentleness and respect." 1 Peter 3:15-16.

Nairobi: Out of the 522,870 candidates in the 2015 KCSE examination, only a third have met the requirements set to join university.
This translates to about 174,290 candidates; a number which Education Cabinet Secretary Fred Matiang'i said is an improved as compared to the previous years.
Many of the 2015 KCSE candidates will be forced to seek admission in alternative institutions as public universities in Kenya can only absorb up to 70,000.
Matiang'i said Technical Training Colleges will be set up in all 290 constituencies by the end of the next financial year to cater for the large number of students from secondary schools and bridge the skill gap in the country.
"Sixty of the colleges have already been completed and establishment of the rest will be done by the end of 2016/17 financial year," said Matiang'i.
Matiang'i said the centres are not just for those candidates who do not meet the university cut off point as even students with an average mark of 'A' can enroll.
This is seen as a measure to increase the number of students taking up STEM subjects (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) and discourage the trend where majority enroll for arts courses at university level.

Hey you. Yes, you. I know what you're thinking. You're thinking, "Man. I really need more modern queer adaptations of H. P. Lovecraft's seminal work The Shadow Over Innsmouth in my life!"
Well, my friend! Do I have a film for you! All of it, in fact, uploaded by the director to YouTube so you can watch the whole thing for free!
I found out about this film care of hbomberguy's (you know, he's the "Sherlock Sucks and Here's Why" dude) video essay on how to adapt H.P. Lovecraft for modern audiences. That essay is also 100% worth watching, possibly before seeing Cthulhu itself, because it sets up expectations for the film (short version: it's not a big loud gory horror, or a perfect film, and if you go in expecting either you'll hate it).
hbomberguy's essay tries to explore the question of just why so many people from marginalized identities seem to be fans of Lovecraft's work, particularly when the man himself was such a viciously bigoted dipshit. As both a) a huge Lovecraft/mythos fan, and b) a queer woman and a member of an ethnic group Lovecraft… wasn't particularly into (i.e. the slavs), the essay really resonated with me. Hence wanting to check out the film that inspired it. As it turned out, I… ended up really enjoying Cthulhu. It's by no means a perfect film, but it's a queer Lovecraftian psychological horror/mystery which is, like, 100% My Bag Baby. I know that it's also 100% the bags of a bunch of you people (I see you, friends), hence… if you haven't seen this film, definitely put aside two and a half hours (for the film and the essay) to check it out.

This is a tutorial for function overloading in java. The program uses 3 functions of same names to calculate area of circle, sqaure and rectangle. The program is extendable. Go enjoy the program. Lets begin………
Program for function overloading in java.
//import Scanner as we require it.
import java.util.Scanner;
// the name of our class its public
public class FunctionConstArg {
//void main
public static void main (String[] args)
//declare float and int
float r;
int s,a,b;
//print message and take input
System.out.println("Enter Radius of circle:");
Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
r = input.nextFloat();
System.out.println("Enter Side of square:");
s = input.nextInt();
System.out.println("Enter length and breadth of rectangle:");
a = input.nextInt();
b = input.nextInt();
//call function and print the area
System.out.println("Area of Circle= "+area(r,3.142f));
System.out.println("Area of Square= "+area(s));
System.out.println("Area of Rectangle= "+area(a,b));
//declare a static functions
//circle function
public static float area(float a,float pi)
float ar = pi*a*a;
return ar;
//square function
public static int area(int a)
int ar = a*a;
return ar;
//rectangle function
public static int area(int a,int b)
int ar = a*b;
return ar;
Enter Radius of circle:
Enter Side of square:
Enter length and breadth of rectangle:
Area of Circle= 3.142
Area of Square= 4
Area of Rectangle= 12
How does it work
- You enter the necessary inputs.
- The function calculates the area.
- The area is printed.
Extending it
The program can be extended by using more different shapes of geometry. You can take the necessary inputs and calculate the area of the given geometry and add there respective functions at end. Even you can do the same program to find the perimeter of different shapes.
- Remember this is a basic part of java which can be used in any program….
- Import the Scanner.
- Declare the class as public
- Add the void main function
- Declare input as Scanner.
- Add system.out.println() function with the message to enter necessary inputs .
- Take the inputs and save it in variables.
- Add system.out.print() function to print area and call the function.
- Add the functions out of void main function.
At the end.
You learnt creating the Java program for Function Overloading. So now enjoy the program.
Please comment on the post and share it.
And like it if you liked.

The traditional bars are cosy and comfortable, ideal for drinking, dining and relaxing. With real fires for the winter months and access to a beer garden for the summer months, that also has wonderful views of the surrounding countryside.
The pub is full of nostalgia. It has exposed brick walls and is traditionally decorated. The pub's history and age are lovingly looked after.
The pub is famously known for it's historic 'Hole

You're a new sales manager or HR professional and you've been tasked to create an incentive plan either for your team or for management. Now what?
Although incentive plans are meant to incent employees to perform, not all plans achieve what they were set out to accomplish. That's why it is important to analyze the advantages and disadvantages of various incentive plan components to determine the plan that will promote the highest levels of performance while at the same time, encourage ethical behavior. This is especially true for salespeople and managers/executives because they work with customers and are responsible for achieving company earnings targets.
Sales Personnel: Lump-sum Bonuses
Lump-sum bonuses are earned at the end of a specified time period, such as monthly, quarterly, or annually, when a salesperson achieves a specific level of sales or sales quota. While they are not the only way to incent salespeople, "72% of firms use bonuses in their sales incentive contracts, whereas only 58% use commission rates, the next most common form of incentive pay" (Steenburgh, 2008, p. 235).
Lump-sum Bonuses – Advantages & Disadvantages
The main advantage of lump-sum bonuses is that they incent salespeople to strive for high levels of performance and to reach sales targets they otherwise might not accomplish. "Quotas are set so as to provide salespeople with objectives that are challenging and worth being achieved. In order to enhance salespeople's performance, management grants them some reward when they reach a pre-specified performance level (the quota) which is higher than the level they would have achieved otherwise" (Steenburgh, 2008, p. 236). While lump-sum bonuses encourage salespeople to achieve higher sales, there can also be drawbacks.
The first disadvantage is that the motivational effects can disappear once quotas have been met. Ever heard of salespeople playing golf instead of working once they reached their quota? The second disadvantage is that lump-sum bonuses may tempt salespeople to manipulate order timing. This happens when salespeople either push out new orders to the next period when they have already achieved quota, or, by pulling in orders from the future period when they are falling short of their quota (Steenburgh, 2008, p. 236).
While there are advantages and disadvantages, an analysis should be undertaken to determine the optimal design for salesperson compensation – which may actually be a combination of base salary, commission rates, and lump-sum bonuses.
Management Incentives
Management incentive plans can also be difficult to create. While it is the duty of managers to work to maximize shareholder wealth by working for what is in the best interest of the company, not all managers act on behalf of the company at all times. Including stock options in management/executive incentive plans are often used because they "appear to reduce excessive aversions to risk by giving managers incentives to increase firm risk instead of avoiding it" (Sigler, 2009, p. 763).
Unfortunately, without a well-thought out implementation plan, executive stock options can produce four problems:
Companies may address the disadvantages in several ways:
Incentive plans are used to encourage employees to perform at high levels of productivity. Because there can be many variations to incentive plans, it is important to analyze the advantages and disadvantages of potential incentive plans prior to implementation. Determining the optimal incentive plan design will not only help improve performance, it will promote ethical behavior that is in the best interest of the company and shareholders.

A refreshing summer blend of lemonade and ripe raspberries with a citrus twist. Finished off with a hint of sparkling soda.
- This is a concentrated flavouring to be mixed in a DIY e-liquid. It is not to be vaped without diluting.
- T-Juice's own recommended percentage for each flavour can be see in the product image (above). We would recommend mixing at this percentage first and then adjusting to your own personal taste.
- All of the T-Juice concentrates are PG based.
- We don't rebottle T-Juice concentrates – they are sold in the manufacturer's bottle sizes only.
- There can be noticeable colour differences between different batches of the same flavour. This is a natural result of the flavour manufacturing process.

Hello beautiful ladies,
I posted the first impressions and swatches of this palette (you can read about it here) so I won't go into that again here. There are so many different looks that can be created out of this palette but I created three that I thought would appeal to different occasions. The first one is a quick and easy super neutral look for work or everyday wear, a daytime go anywhere look and a night time or party look. I actually don't get out much at night with a toddler so I wear my night looks during the day.
My eye makeup always takes me a lot longer than the rest so for days I have 10 minutes to be ready, I do very minimal with my eyeshadow. I used Full Zip all over my eyelid, then Champs in the crease and Note to Self in the outer corner. With such good blendability, it took me about two minutes to do. Don't go in too heavy handed though or you will need to spend more time blending.
Face: The Ordinary High-Spreadability Fluid Primer, Nars Sheer Glow Foundation, Fenty Beauty Match Stix Trio in Bamboo, Mocha and Trippin, Violet Voss Pro Highlighting Palette in Moon Gleam.
Eyes: Lorac Eye Primer, Colourpop Yes, Please Eyeshadow Palette in Full Zip, Champs and Note to Self, Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Powder Duo in Soft Brown, Rimmel Wonder'full Mascara.
Lips: Kat Von D Studded Kiss Lipstick in Noble.
This look didn't take a long time to achieve but it is a bit more vibrant and noticeable that I'd wear to work or a lunch date with friends. As you can see, the bright orange shade, Big Cocktails, isn't as bright or scary on my eyelids as the swatch from the first impressions post made out it was.
Face: Bourjois Happy Light Serum Primer, Marc Jacobs Beauty Re(Marc)able Foundation, Too Faced Cocoa Contour Palette in Medium Cocoa, Light Cocoa and Pop of Light.
Eyes: Marc Jacobs Beauty Under(cover) Coconut Eye Primer, Colourpop Yes, Please Eyeshadow Palette in Full Zip, Note to Self, Big Cocktails and Butter Cake, Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Definer in Soft Brown, Tarte Tarteist Lash Paint Mascara.
Lips: Too Faced Melted Liquid Lipstick in Nude.
As I mentioned earlier, I love creating these glittery, shimmery looks but I just don't go out at night so I wear these types of looks during the day. Luckily, my work is quite okay with my over the top makeup. I used Louie, which is a metallic red/orange on the outer and inner corners up to the gold halo but it didn't show up as metallic in the photo.
Face: Bourjois Happy Light Serum Primer, It Cosmetics CC+ Full Coverage Cream, Charlotte Tilbury Filmstar Bronze and Glow Face Sculpt and Highlight.
Eyes: Lorac Eye Primer, Colourpop Yes, Please Eyeshadow Palette in Full Zip, GNO, Louie and Butter Cake, Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Definer in Soft Brown, Ciate Wonderwand Mascara.
Lips: Kylie Cosmetics Metal Matte Liquid Lipstick in Heir.
- COLOURPOP Yes, Please Eyeshadow Palette
- RRP – $16 USD ($20.80 AUD) from Colourpop (buy it here)
Suitable for? I think just about every second person owns this palette with how long I had to wait for it, even with restocks, it was sold out in minutes. However, for the other half that doesn't own this, its for anyone who loves warm tones, doesn't want to spend a fortune on a palette but wants performance from their eyeshadows and who likes to play with colour and shimmers as well as neutrals.
Is Colourpop cruelty free? Colourpop do not conduct any animal testing or commission third parties to do so. Their suppliers do not test on animals and their products are not sold in China so they are 100% cruelty free. Colourpop's parent company, Seed Beauty, are also cruelty free.
My thoughts? I am a huge fan of Colourpop in general just because they produce amazing quality products at an affordable price, however, I probably don't use the super shock shadows or liquid lipsticks as much as other brands. The super shock shadows are not convenient for me (I'm just a palette girl) and the liquid lipsticks are drying on my lips which isn't just a Colourpop problem.
When Colourpop released their pressed shadows though, I bought 8 to try out and I bought them in an empty Z palette. Now, I did reach for these more because they're in a palette. I've since bought enough to fill one palette. So, when they came out with their own palettes, I was so excited and this palette looked amazing. The shades were a mix of neutral, sunset inspired mattes and shimmers that pushed the envelope of the peach/coral trend. I was in love at first sight.
By the time I'd actually bought the palette, my excitement had died off a bit and transferred to the I Think I Love You palette. After swatching it and using it though, my love is back and it's here to stay.
There is not one colour in this palette I won't use. Full Zip is the one I use as a base for every look so I'll expect to hit pan on that one first. Note to Self is a beautiful nude shade too that doesn't apply patchy like it did in the swatches. I also really like Champs as a transition, base and eyelid shade because its so subtle yet pretty. Mischief was also patchy in the swatches, however, it blended well on my eyes. There is so many combinations with these 12 shadows that I'm sure you'll be seeing this a lot in my makeup looks.
- Cruelty free
- Very pigmented
- Easy to blend
- Affordable
- Long wearing
- Palette is going to be very dirty looking soon
- Won't appeal to anyone who prefers cool tones
- Some shades kick up in pan
So, is it a necessity? In a short answer, yes. At $1.33USD ($1.73AUD) each for 12 pressed eyeshadows, it is extremely good value. Even if I don't use 1/3 of the palette, at $2USD ($2.60AUD) per pan, I would say it would still be one of the cheapest and best performing palettes in my collection.
Thank you for reading 🙂

China to adopt new rules to improve economic data quality
[BEIJING] China is set to adopt new rules to prevent officials from falsifying statistics to help improve the quality of data, the cabinet said on Wednesday.
There has long been widespread global scepticism about the reliability of Chinese data, especially as the government has sought to reduce expectations of a protracted slowdown in the world's second-largest economy.
The cabinet has approved draft rules on implementing the statistical law that will regulate statistical activities "from the source", it said in a statement on the government's website, after a regular meeting.
The rules would strengthen efforts to hold accountable people falsifying figures to "ensure the authenticity and authority of statistical data", the cabinet said.
China will improve its statistical system and methods, including those on new industries, the cabinet said, without giving further details.
In January, the state-owned People's Daily newspaper reported that the Liaoning government, in its annual work report, revealed it had misstated fiscal data from 2011 to 2014.

Yesterday you got the pictures and today you'll get the videos from the race on the track of Dorno. We had almost 35° Celsius during the day!
Hope you enjoy as usual!
Yesterday you got the pictures and today you'll get the videos from the race on the track of Dorno. We had almost 35° Celsius during the day!
Hope you enjoy as usual!
And here are the video clips I made for the latest MX2 race happening in Trofarello last weekend! Really hope you like them!
Saturday the 11th I had the exclusive chance to work for Mazda in order to produce the clip summing up the day spent around Turin. Tough event though I enjoyed every bit of that and that's why I made such a good work: great organization, nice weather and everything that ran really smooth throughout the day. I really hope I showed the beauty of the city and of the locations we went to, even though it's been difficult due to the amount of events that were going on at the same time for the Salone dell'Automobile.
Without further due, I present you what I made. Please enjoy it and feel free to share it!
These three videos close the circle for this weekend's race event! I really hope you enjoy them as much as I do: I had great fun making them and as usual I can't wait to hear from you!
Checke them out!
Very much like Frank Sinatra, last weekend I was deep in mud and rain, though I wasn't singing. I was shooting an amazing race which ended up with great shots and these videos that you're about to see!
Check them out and tell me what you think!
Here are the latest videos I made for MOTOASI.IT! I almost forgot to upload them! Please feel free to check them out and tell me what you think! You can also have a look at my other videos on my Vimeo channel if you feel like.
And that's about it for the latest trip with MOTOASI.IT! Here you can find the highlights video from the Reg. MX2, hope you enjoy them and please feel free to share them!
During the last two months I've been around the Turin area to shoot and edit a series of corporate videos under the Dermablend Project by L'Oreal, the famous brand of the makeup artists. This series covers a wide range of pharmacies that are giving out free makeup suggestions to clients in need to do a quick makeup by themselves.
Unfortunately, due to corporate restrictions, you will have to watch the clips I made on Vimeo at this link, I hope you enjoy them!
Ancora una volta arrivo per primo con i video in realtà virtuale a 360°! Abbiamo portato di nuovo in pista il necessario per restituire un'esperienza di visione unica ai ragazzi di MOTOASI.IT. Sulla pista di Dorno, infatti, è troppo pericoloso stare nei pressi della prima curva, dunque il pubblico è costretto a vedere la gara da lontano.
Grazie ai miei video 360, che sono sempre i primi in Italia in ambito sportivo, riusciamo a portare gli spettatori direttamente lì dove non possono stare e godersi appieno la partenza.
Inutile dire che sono molto fiero di tutto questo!
There we go! Here are the videos from last monday's race day! I hope you enjoy them: personally, I think that giving word to the riders adds that edge to the story of the day that makes these videos unique. Please feel free to share them!

Our next post in the "software development team roles" series is about project manager.
Project managers can have the responsibility of the planning, execution and closing of any project, typically relating to construction industry, architecture, aerospace and defense, computer networking, telecommunications or software development (source).
Aliaksandr Astapenka, Project Manager and Business Analyst at Oxagile
- I earned my first salary during my Work&Travel USA experience at the company which was producing ice for parties on the East Coast. My duty was to pack ice at the production line, probably, the most difficult and annoying part of the whole process.
- Managing projects and products is one of the most important parts of business in software development. I have a passion towards IT business and currently involved into one disruptive business. Entrepreneurs are sort of a new rock stars nowadays and who doesn't want to be a rock star?
- I love music and it plays an important role in my life for sure. Several years ago I have launched wide known in Belarus portal about fast and alternative music. The portal today is fully operational, but I am not involved in it anymore. To my mind music is essential to people working in an open space office (like we do), it might be difficult to concentrate at your work otherwise.
- Thinking of Project management, there are at least three most important facts I would like to stress on: everything in life is a new project; individuals and interactions should be over processes and tools; following a plan promptly respond to occurring changes in order to succeed in managing projects.
- I put maximum efforts to avoid handling urgent situations at work. However, should I face force majeure I take it easy and stop to think for a second before making an important decision.
- Obviously, communication skills are the most important for a Project manager and that is a common believe. What I personally value in Project management is a fast thinking.
- I am a big fan of time management and GTD. I am tracking my time daily since 2008 and provide retrospective for myself periodically. Having prioritized my goals I am able to determine the most time consuming activities and avoid activities with the lowest priority for me. These time-sanitation practices help me keep enough time space to be right on track for the most important things throughout a day.
- If I could travel in time, I would like to go 20-30 years to the future. Current world is a bit too slow to me, but information technologies, telecommunication and transport are constantly gaining up in speed and the world should be fast enough in a given timeframe. At the same time 20-30 years is close enough, so I don't feel like a square peg in a round hole in a future society.
- Probably I am too much some kind of an individualist so I don't usually participate in any official clubs or organizations. But at the same time I enjoy sharing my thoughts with the professional community and listening other opinions at specific events and meetings. For instance, in December I went to Paris to take part in LeWeb 2013 Conference with two goals in mind: inspiration and networking. With little professional knowledge at such kind of conferences, it's a great opportunity to feel the main trends and to look at your own company/product from out of a box and to draw appropriate conclusions. Also there are many people with great experience, sharp mind and a passion to make new disruptive thing that I couldn't stop networking all the day long. The most memorable and disgusting to me at the conference was the speech of French Minister Arnaud Montebourg saying "when innovation destroys systems, we have to go slowly" when he was asked about Uber.
- In people I appreciate a good sense of humor. As a reliable source of professional information that I daily consume I tend to use Twitter or Instapaper (when need to postpone news for later reading).

The joy of Heaven does, because Christ is our joy, who tells us "I am with you always, even to the end of the world" (Matt. 28:20, Phillips). We do not now fully appreciate that joy, but it is here, because the very life of Heaven, the very life that flows from the Vine into the branches, is here. If it is not here in us now, it will not be there in us then.
If Heaven is not in us now, we will not be in Heaven forever. For Heaven is where God is. God determines where Heaven is; Heaven does not determine where God is. God contains Heaven; Heaven does not contain God. If God is in our souls now by faith, then the very life of Heaven is here in us now, in seed form. That is what Jesus came to preach about and to give, the focus of all his sermons: "the kingdom of Heaven." It is the "pearl of great price," the thing for which the whole world is far too small a price to pay. And it is free.
33. How do you get to Heaven?
This is the most important question anyone can ask. The answer has already been given: It is free. "Let him who is thirsty come, let him who desires take the water of life without price" (Rev. 22:17). Faith is the act of taking.
It sounds crazy, too good to be true. But it makes perfect sense. For God is love. Love gives gifts, gives itself. God gives himself, his own life, membership in his family. We are made "partakers of the divine nature" (2 Peter 1:4). For God is pure love, and pure love has no admixture of stinginess in it.
This was published in the Christianity Today book, Tough Questions Christians Ask. Peter Kreeft is a professor of philosophy at Boston College and the author of more than 40 books

Who Needs A Temporary Food Service Permit?
Any operation that offers food to the public at a fixed location for no more than 14 consecutive days, such as a carnival, public exhibition, festival, celebration, fair, and a transitory gathering, needs to obtain a permit from the Stratford Health Department. The Stratford Town Code requires a permit for temporary events when food and beverages are offered to the public.
We have included a printable Temporary Food Service Application Form at the bottom of this page for your convenience. Also included is a printable version of the Food Service Guide.
The Application Process – How to Obtain A Permit
• You must obtain a Temporary Food Service application from the Stratford Health Department. We can mail or fax it to you.
• Return the application to the Stratford Health Department at least two weeks prior to the event. A fee will be required for registered non-profit organizations, and for profit making businesses.
• The Stratford Health Department will review the application with the person in charge of food over the phone or in the office before approval of the application. An inspection of your food booth by the Stratford Health Department may be required.
• Your heating and cooling equipment must be approved by the Stratford Health Department.
• All food and beverages (including ice) must come from an approved source. This means food must be purchased or donated from an approved wholesale or retail store and prepared in a commercial establishment. No donations from individuals are allowed.
• You must provide a list of the names, addresses, and phone numbers of all volunteers working at your booth, including their time-in, time-out, job duties, and dates worked.

Making Tax Digital to go ahead in just weeks but breathing space for some welcomed
Responding to this afternoon's Written Ministerial Statement on Making Tax Digital (MTD),1 Adrian Rudd, Chair of the joint CIOT/ATT Digitalisation and Agent Strategy Working Group, said:
"The Spring Statement has put beyond doubt that MTD for VAT will go ahead as planned from 1 April 2019. Anyone holding out for a last minute reprieve due, for example, to Brexit uncertainty, will need to focus on this urgently.
"While the Government confirmed it will apply a 'light touch approach' to late filing and record keeping penalties in the first year of MTD, it still expects businesses to do their best to comply with the requirements, so the light touch may not benefit businesses who make no attempt to apply MTD."
The Government also confirm today that MTD would not be extended to other taxes or businesses in 2020.
Adrian Rudd said:
Press Releases
"We welcome the announcement that, in practice, MTD will not be further extended until at least April 2021, either to bring income tax within the scope of MTD, or businesses who are voluntarily registered for VAT. This delivers on the Tax Minister's promise that the Government will not widen the scope of MTD beyond VAT before the system has been shown to work well."2
While 1 April is just 19 days away, the CIOT cautioned businesses against signing up before they are ready.
Adrian Rudd said:
"While some of the requirements of MTD apply from 1 April 2019, this is not the deadline for enrolling into MTD. For many businesses the deadline for signing up may be nearer the beginning of August 2019. Businesses need to enrol into MTD for VAT at the right time, and only when they are confident that they can submit their next VAT return using MTD-compatible software, otherwise significant problems can arise. We have produced a guide to the sign up 'windows', to help businesses transition into MTD as smoothly as possible."3

Braided Hairstyles are one method for doing it. You are constantly told that your hairstyle is very ethnic or too exotic, which you might have to think about being more approachable. Hair style braids are one of the most common African American protective styling choices.
In addition, there is no need to use heat for braided hair, and that means you don't have to risk drying or damaging your hair in any way. You can let it be more beautiful by pinning some interesting hairpins. Secure hair above the part with a butterfly clip.

Third Annual Family History Conference to be Held in Tempe
By Cecily Markland
Third Annual Family History Conference to be Held in Tempe
The Mesa FamilySearch Library will host its third annual Family History Conference on October 25, with topics and classes for beginner genealogists and seasoned family history buffs as well.
The conference theme, "Putting the Puzzle Together," comes from the fact that "Finding your ancestors can be one of the most interesting puzzles you can work on," states the Mesa FamilySearch Library website.
The keynote address will be presented by Dennis Brimhall, CEO of FamilySearch, one of the largest family history sites in the world. A graduate of Brigham Young University, Brother Brimhall later received an MBA from Northwestern University. He has served in numerous Church callings, including stake president, high councilor and mission president. He was named a member of the Sixth Quorum of the Seventy in 2009 and honorably released in April 2014.
In addition to an excellent keynote speaker, the conference will feature "a very strong teaching team of subject experts and content experts for family research," says Gordon Mulleneaux, conference chair.
"Our strength is in their diversity of backgrounds," he says. "At this year's conference we have several people who bring new perspective to us about their family history research. Also people are bringing some of the more modern tools of genealogy, using an iPad for example or using social media for family history."
There will be a total of 55 classes, 10 more than last year.
The classes cover a wide variety of topics pertaining to family history, including classes about the FamilySearch site, ancestry.com, maps, censuses, social media, in addition to specific training on various records—Swedish, German, English, French.
A complete list of classes and bios of all presenters are available at mesafsl.org.
Brother Mulleneaux says, even those who have done very little in the way of family history will find helpful tips and motivation at this conference.
"It is very exciting to research about our ancestors. What motivated them to move from one spot to another spot? Was it in search of freedom? Or, were they escaping some family tragedy?"
"Oftentimes," he says, "people learn things about their ancestors they did not previously know."
Brother Mulleneaux says, "Another reason family history is so popular in today's world is that the modern computer is constantly changing how the family researcher can look for information, including online books, available databases in various parts of the world and software programs that provide research tools unavailable only a few short years ago."
He says since he retired about four years ago, he spends at least 35 to 40 hours a week in family history, either working on his own family history or helping others in their search. He's found, "In order to stay current, the family researcher must look at all the new tools and new techniques which are coming rapidly to family history research."
The conference will be held at the Tempe Institute of Religion on the ASU Campus from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturday, October 25.
The conference is free, but online registration is required and box lunches (optional) may be purchased at www.mesafsl.org. Registration will be closed at 720 registrations, as that is the maximum number the conference can accommodate.
"We invite all to come and research with us and learn of the various available research tools," Brother Mulleneauxsays.

PANOPTICON - Roads to the North, DigiCD
Following up the critically acclaimed Kentucky, Roads... is the logical evolution into pure and passionate artistic expression. With Panopticon's solid foundation of emotive black metal armed with musical influences that proudly uphold traditional Americana (folk and bluegrass) elements, Roads to the North expands and destroys with melodic death metal harmonies, increased technical proficiency and a full/professional sound that propels this material into new realms of expression for Panopticon.
The album features a litany of guest talents and close comrades, including members of Waldgefluster, Celestiial, Blood and Sun, Obsequiae, Altar of Plagues, Vit, Austaras, and Vukari, and was engineered & produced by ever-prolific sound wizard Colin Marston. Lunn himself utilized a wide range of instrumentation to realize his vision, from dobro and banjo to mandolin, Native American flute, and keyboards as well as his customary guitars, bass, drums, and vocals.

In a couple of days time, Samsung will take to the stage ahead of MWC and introduce their latest handsets in the form of the Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge. However, these are devices which among other things, will be compatible with the company's mobile payment solution, Samsung Pay. Interestingly, just ahead of the devices being introduced, Samsung has announced an update on Samsung Pay and one which highlights how the payment solution is currently doing.
According to the details, Samsung has now confirmed that since the payment method launched late last year, it has processed more than $500 million dollars. This in addition to seeing the payment method being adopted by more than 5 million users worldwide. Figures which seem to be quite impressive considering the service has only been active for the last six months. However, Samsung does note that the regions in which they have seen the 'strongest adoption' is in the U.S. along with their home market, South Korea. In addition to the details on what Samsung Pay has achieved so far, the announcement also provides some insight into what can be expected from Samsung Pay going forward. Most notable the announcement confirms this year will see Samsung Pay progressing with its global expansion plans. According to the details, this will commence with Samsung Pay going live in China from as early as March. Which is in line with the time-frame Samsung provided back in December of last year. Following which, further rolls out will take place later in the year for Australia, Brazil, Singapore, Spain and the U.K. The announcement also details that Canada will be added to the roadmap going forward, although details on when Canada will see Samsung Pay arrive was not currently provided.
Lastly, the announcement also does provide information on the general compatibility with financial institutions or as Samsung puts it, their "Extensive Partnership Ecosystem". The announcement details that throughout the rest of this year, they will be expanding their partnership ecosystem to include more companies and institutions, specifically naming American Express, China UnionPay, MasterCard, and Visa. A move which would likely see the number of users and transactions greatly increase. Those interested can read up on Samsung Pay in more detail by heading through the source link below.
