If you are a makeup junkie like myself then you too probably have a crap ton of brushes. I have way too many, but I tend to gravitate towards certain ones. They are my tried and true. They always make my eye makeup look the best. And I truly believe you all need these in your life.
MAC 213 & MAC 239 & Royal & Langnickel BC411 – These are both GREAT eye shader brushes! I use these for all over color. And you can even use the 213 for some crease work. If you are just starting off the R&L is definitely a cheaper version of the MAC ones. It works just as well and to be honest I use it more because the brush is larger and covers more eyelid area.
MAC 217 & Bdellium Tools 776 – I could not live life without a blending brush. I actually have two Mac 217's. They are the most amazing thing ever! I think that you cant leave home without blending your crease. The Bdellium Tools brush is almost an exact dupe for the MAC one. I picked it up at IMATS and have been loving it ever since. I love having an extra blending brush around to just buff out your shadows. They always come in handy.
Chanel #19 & Bdellium Tools 781 – I love these both for precision crease work. I also love them for pop coloring on the outer corner of my eye. They place color exactly where you need. I also use the Bdellium Tools brush to darken my crease and make it more exact.
Royal & Langnickel BC430 & Sonia Kashuk 109 – These brushes are amazing! I love using them to blend out my crease color or to pop on my highlight color. The R&L brush is really amazing for crease work. It is tapered so nicely and can really work into and blend out your crease color. Have you noticed that I love blending brushes? I have an obsession with crease work.
MAC 219 – This is great for depositing color under the eye. I love a smoked out look and use this everyday. It has stayed nice and stiff through out many washes. Which is great because my Sigma ones have become way to fluffed out.
Sorry for showing dirty brushes, but I am a bad girl and do not wash them too often.
What are your favorite brushes? I would love to know and check them out!
Yesterday was my first day back to school. Womp Womp. I am not exactly the biggest school enthusiast. I think college is necessary, but not for all. I will one day have my bachelors. When that day will be I am not sure. Anyone want to go to school for me! Ha!
Anywho I am working on some great new pieces for my etsy shop and wanted to share.
They will be in the shop soon! And I can't wait to show you all of them! So stay tuned!

P.S. – These are all my eye brushes!

LONDON (MarketWatch) -- Financial services company PMI Group PMI, +0.59% said that third-quarter net income dropped to $95.7 million, or 97 cents a share, from $102.6 million, or 99 cents a share, after taking an $8.9 million charge related to Hurricane Katrina. Analysts were expecting the company to report earnings of $1.06 a share. Consolidated net premiums written for the quarter rose to $206.1 million, from $187.0 million a year ago, primarily due to an increase in average premium rates in U.S. mortgage insurance operations and favorable foreign currency exchange rates in international operations, the company said.

A Double Chocolate Hot Cross Bun pull apart? It doesn't get much better this for Easter breakfast or brunch!
This recipe is based of my popular Hot Cross Buns recipe from 2014. This recipe does not have any bread improver in it. If I'm making bread for friends and don't want to risk it being a flop I'll add just a little in. If you want to ensure you have nice soft fluffy hot cross buns I recommend adding 2 teaspoons of bread improver along with the flour. See my bread tips here.

When it comes to Chinese purchases of U.S. agricultural goods, signs are growing that President Donald Trump won't get what he wants anytime soon.
Trump complained Thursday, July 11, that China hasn't boosted its purchases of U.S. farm products, a promise he claims he secured in a meeting with his counterpart Xi Jinping in June. But according to officials in Beijing familiar with the talks, no such agreement was made. China's Commerce Ministry also indicated that in their view, substantial discussions have yet to restart even though both sides spoke on the phone.
China has started preparing to buy farm products, including gauging the prices of U.S. soybeans, but will not purchase large amounts until it sees concrete progress in the negotiations, a person familiar with the matter said Friday. Small purchases could happen before that, the person said.
Trump and Xi agreed to a tentative pause in raising tariffs after their meeting in Osaka, though varying readouts and vague comments from Trump have sown confusion about what was actually agreed on in the room. Major sticking points include when and by how much China will increase its imports of U.S. farm products, and how exactly the U.S. will ease trade restrictions on Chinese technology giant Huawei Technologies Co.
China's stance so far suggests that "the purchase of agricultural products is pegged to the entire deal being done," said He Weiwen, a former commerce ministry official who is now a senior research fellow at the Center for China and Globalization in Beijing. "It is not a case that China buys American products first to get a final deal, but rather that after a final deal is inked, China will make the purchases it agreed to."
China has rejected a U.S. demand to increase agricultural purchases beyond the number Trump and Xi agreed to in Argentina last year, according to Wang Huiyao, an adviser to China's cabinet.

CurrentC exclusivity to last "months, not years"
In a recent interview, CEO of the Merchant Customer Exchange consortium Dekkers Davidson denied that they had ordered CVS to block Apple Pay, and the exclusivity clause in their agreements with retailers would expire in "months, not years".
Davidson went on to say that they weren't afraid of multiple compelling mobile payment systems being in use, and that the exclusivity was simply to provide breathing room for the development of their solution, CurrentC.
For those unfamiliar, MCX is an organization of retailers that have been creating their own mobile payment solution since well before the wraps were taken off Apple Pay. Now the binding agreement is putting some retailers in a tough spot between honoring that arrangement or getting on board with Apple Pay, which is likely to be fairly successful. One major chain, CVS, briefly introduced Apple Pay support and proved that it's technically possible, but went on to block Apple Pay afterwards. For those curious as to how CurrentC operates, be sure to read our technical deep dive here.
How many of you guys are having trouble finding places that accept Apple Pay? Is CVS a regular stop for you? Are you likely to make use of more than one wireless payment system?

All formats/editions
From the acclaimed novelist and screenwriter of The Theory of Everything comes a revisionist look at the period immediately following Winston Churchill's ascendancy to Prime Minister-soon to be a major motion picture starring Gary Oldman. May 1940. Britain is at war, Winston Churchill has unexpectedly been promoted to Prime Minister, the horrors of Blitzkreig witness one western European Democracy fall after another in rapid succession. Facing this horror, with pen in hand and typist-secretary at the ready, Churchill wonders what words could capture the public mood when the invasion of Britain seems mere hours away. It is this fascinating period that Anthony McCarten captures in this deeply researched and wonderfully written new book, The Darkest Hour. A day-by-day (and often hour-by-hour) narrative of this crucial moment in history provides a revisionist look at Churchill-a man plagued by doubt through those turbulent weeks-but who emerged having made himself into the iconic, lionized figure we remember.

|Fund Raising
|The Compass Trust
|Nell Banfield
We are a small charity with six trustees, all of whom help to run the charity in their spare time and at their own cost. This is why all the money raised goes to the school - we spend none of your donation/sponsor money on administration, postage, website development, printing, etc. We are proud to be able to contribute to the improvement of Levana Primary School so their pupils can have a more successful education/school experience. Nell Banfield set up the charity to support Levana Primary School in Lavender Hill, Cape Town in 2003, following a Local Authority exchange visit and has been the Secretary ever since. There were originally 3 trustees and there are now 6. 2004-05 saw three visits by myself [Nell Banfield] and a Manchester head teacher to work with the staff and the principal on school improvement specifically provision for SEN pupils, self evaluation and behavior management. This work became the subject of our dissertation for our Master's degree in Process Consultancy with The Centre for Educational Leadership at Manchester University. The purpose of the charity is to raise money to improve provision for children in the school in the form of resources or in staffing. All money raised goes into the school bank account and at least 2 trustees visit the school each year at their own expense to keep up to date with developments at the school and with the Western Cape Education Department. In the fund raising year 2008 - 2009 we raised £7,500 which was the most raised so far. Previous funds raised have paid for a teacher of English, reading books for all levels of readers, air conditioning for the computer room, a quiet room for vulnerable learners and a library.
This site includes information about our visits, details of the school, its pupils and staff and of the Levana School Partnership.

Catching Up With Sunset At Tills Beach Resort
On Saturday evening,a friend informed me about the Aboakyer Festival(Antelope hunting) of the people of Winneba in the Central region of Ghana. We made plans to go to Winneba on Sunday to have a little of the festival experience and climax the day at one of their amazing beaches. Fortunately or unfortunately, we didn't live up to our plan. We ended up leaving Accra at 3:30pm and made our way through the famous Kasoa traffic after an hour😐. At that point we had to decide if to continue with our plan to drive to Winneba or find another beach to end the day nicely. One thing we all couldn't afford to miss out on is watching the sun go down(sunset) so we quickly concluded on Tills beach resort, located in Gomoah Fetteh which was about 40 mins drive from where we had gotten to.
It takes roughly 30 minutes drive off the Accra- Winneba road to arrive at Tills beach. The road to the venue is bumpy but definitely worth the view you'll get on your arrival. This same road leads to the white sands beach resort and the sunset beach. It actually wasn't my first time at tills beach, this is my 3rd time and by far my best moment there!. My friends' on the other hand were new to the place and they absolutely loved it.
Too bad we didn't leave Accra earlier😁, we spent 2 hours on the beach because that's all we had(5pm-7pm) but I made very good use of the 2hours and cherished every moment of it. Those following me on snap chat(snapname Lifebyapril) can testify to that. I got the best sunset views in my life so far, it was amazing, I mean amaaaazing with two different views. Herty and I spent an hour capturing and admiring the sunsets. The beach is clean as you can see from the pictures, not the regular ones you see in some parts of Accra.
As at may 2016, the current entrance fee to tills beach resort is 15cedis per head for adults.
No food and drinks are allowed from outside because they sell some and its afford, their jollof rice is really tasty.
Here are more pictures taken at tills beach…..
I'm not promising you'll get all 3 sunset views like the ones in the pictures when you visit but all I know is we were lucky and happy to have seen the sun set this beautifully.
Are you panning on going to Tills beach resort? Ask me what you want to know and if you've ever been there, share your experience with me below. Happy travels

Presented by The Old Church Concert Hall in Portland Oregon as part of their "WE CAN LISTEN" series:
This work made possible by a grant from the SAMUEL LAWRENCE FOUNDATION.
Described by Bruce Weber of the New York Times as "capable of astonishing transformations," Eliza Jane Schneider (South Park, Beakman's World) is an award-winning actress, playwright, dialect coach, producer, musician, and activist, living in Portland. During her 20-year journey traveling the world as a street musician and dialect researcher, her role evolved into that of an independent grass-roots journalist. She shared space with, broke bread with and, ultimately, tape-recorded the unique and powerful stories of abandoned, mistreated and, often, triumphant human beings living in the streets of our planet's wealthiest and poorest cities. This year, settled at home in Portland, after 25 years, 13 countries, and 7,000 interviews, just 20 feet from where she enters the freeway every Thursday, she discovers the powerful silent voices of immigrant mothers, dying to be heard, and brings their words to the stage.
Bruce Hostetler has been a working director/playwright/producer for over 30 years. His play Feral, created from interviews with over 600 people living homeless in Portland, sold out it's Portland run. Bruce is the Artistic Director of CompassWorks, a Portland theatre company focused on illuminating untold stories through work based on interviews.
What is the power of listening? A thoughtful, musical, multimedia performance. Some material not suitable for younger audiences.
"Most of us care about the homeless and fret about what we can do to help. Many of us volunteer in some way to address the problem. Few of us, however, can say we 'know' a homeless person. How would you even begin? Sit down and have a little chat? Record what the homeless have to say? Then what? Tell everyone you know? Who does that?
Eliza Jane Schneider is the only person I know who not only has done that, but who has combined her many theatrical talents to create a moving evening with the homeless in a brilliant presentation she calls 'Displaced'. Eliza 'becomes' each person before our eyes, beginning with a brief recording of the homeless person and morphing into that person before our eyes. From the streets of America and several other countries, the DISPLACED come to life.
And yes, there is something you can do. Help Eliza help others by spreading the word about this remarkable piece of theatrical education."

"Virtuosic! Schneider's everymen and everywomen are opinionated, touching, and amazingly diverse. A vivid oral history of American life. The most stunning moment of the show, when Schneider averts the attack of a rapist with an operatic aria, is pure poetry, a soaring metaphoric counterpoint to the play's recurrent themes of human desperation and the redemptive powers of art" - Kathleen Foley, L.A. Times
"Amazing . . . wild, audacious, powerful, funny, poignant. The next Lily Tomlin!" - Venice Magazine
"Schneider is an astonishing physical mimic, and eerily adroit at capturing accents and speech patterns from various regions of the country." - L.A. Reader
"Riveting, Brilliant, Dazzling..." - Wisconsin State Journal
"Wildly funny! Genuinely poignant. Watch out Anna Deavere Smith, Eliza Schneider just might do your act better than you do!" - Backstage West
A true story, Eliza Jane Schneider's twenty-five character solo play, Freedom of Speech, will take the audience on her journey through the kitchenettes and hearts of Arizona polygamists, Los Angeles dominatrixes and Montana Huterites, and into the real social emergencies facing America as a nation. Arkansas fiddles, Pittsburgh street rap and New Orleans midnight arias provide the soundtrack to Schneider's 317,000-mile spiritual quest, born of her hypothesis that dialects--residual phonemes--are the only archeological dig the kids of America have. What began as a World Arts and Cultures thesis project at UCLA and evolved through various cocoons as Road Trip and USA 911 emerges as a jarring sociopolitical manifesto, Freedom of Speech.
After having her wrist broken by a cop while protesting Daddy Bush's Gulf war, Schneider's distrust of the American system along with her fear of being permanently jettisoned into the numbing barrage of media hype on which her generation was weaned, incites her to cash in her assets, quit her "dream" job on television, shave her head, buy an ambulance, and set off across the country in search of...something she could not define. Esoteric voices? Or truth? Almost 10 years and over a thousand interviews later, she invites us on her journey. She revisits a collage of disenfranchised American voices from the streets, and develops a suspicion that America, disconnected, brainwashed and date-raped by an intangible government, is becoming pre-WWII Germany. She sets up a dialectic between the disconnected: urban and rural; rich and poor; New York and the South, all while taking the audience on her own wild ride from Arizona to Alabama to Alaska, stopping off in beauty parlors, swimming holes, bars, street corners, and churches, asking everyone she met, simply, "What's going on?" The answers challenge us to question the precarious premises upon which we rest our world-views. We are feminists seduced by hypnotic Utopia-hawkin polygamists; vegetarians donning a camouflage cap at deer camp in West Virginia; Jews driving to see the Blessed Virgin Mary appear on the side of a barn. We accompany a junkie to cop a fix. A Mexican-American marine tells about covert missions he fought in Beirut and Grenada. A nursing mother, in the process of rewriting the Declaration of Independence, contends "Tom Jefferson said, you must have a revolution every twenty years to keep the government straight, well, we haven't had a revolution in so long, it's ridiculous."
Still seeking a Universal Truth, we return with Schneider to the Chippewa reservation were she was raised, only to find a new Bingo Palace in the place of her old day-care. There, we meet a jewelry salesman who incites us to believe, "Now that the White Buffalo is here, Art will be the thing that brings the world together." Drawing on the most captivating chapters of her research, Schneider incorporates a scene from her earlier solo piece, Road Trip, described by the Los Angeles Times as "pure poetry, a soaring metaphoric counterpoint to the play's recurrent theme about human desperation and the redemptive powers of art."
The scene: Schneider averts a rapist's attack with an operatic aria, metaphorically reminding us of the power of the human voice to defend liberty. Blending the immediacy of a documentary with the intimacy of personal narrative, Freedom of Speech captures a muffled underlying voice of America that we won't hear anywhere else.
"You got TV, you got cable, you're alright."
"We are now living in the end times."
"I have 30 sons."
"It's an intimate thing to stick a needle in your arm."
"We can never get our innocence back."
"ASTONISHING TRANSFORMATIONS!" - Bruce Weber, The New York Times

Most people reading this article must have heard about impact resistant doors and windows. These impact doors and windows are known to protect your home from strong winds and projectiles. Apart from protecting your home from extreme weather conditions, hurricane doors and windows offer several other benefits. These include:
Energy Efficiency
With energy costs increasing by the day, we look at ways of reducing our energy costs. If installing regular windows in our houses, they allow thermal transmission which increases electric costs. During winters, ordinary windows allow heat to escape from the room, which increases the run time of the heater. When the run time increases, it increases the energy bills drastically. During summers, ordinary windows allow heat to enter our room. This increases the pressure on the air-conditioner, which increases our energy costs too.
The problem of high energy bills can be tackled by installing impact-rated doors and windows. These windows and doors prevent heat from entering and escaping from the room, which reduces energy costs. So you need to find The Window Pros – Miami Impact Windows if you want to make your home more energy efficient.
Permanent Protection
Households that use storm panels are aware of the effort they have to put into to fix them and take them down. Another problem with storm panels is that they offer only temporary protection from extreme weather conditions. However, when you install impact-rated storm windows and doors, you get a round-the-clock protection from strong winds, projectiles, and break-ins.
Noise Reduction
If you live near a busy interaction or a highway, then reducing the noise around is a good idea. Ordinary windows allow noise to enter your home, which can disturb the peace and tranquility of your home. Noise pollution is a big problem even for commercial establishments, as it can increase stress levels and affect the concentration of employees. To deal with this problem, you can install impact doors and windows in commercial and residential properties. These windows prevent outside sound from entering your office, which reduces the ill effects of noise pollution.
Protection from UV-Rays
If you live in an area where you get sunlight throughout the year, you must take steps to protect yourself and your home from the ill effects of sunlight. It is a known fact that sunlight contains UV-rays that can cause skin cancer and damage the furniture of your home. Installing impact windows will block these rays by up to 99 percent. If UV-rays are allowed to enter your home, they can cause discoloration or fading of everything from your breakfast table to couch.
Discounts on Insurance Premiums
Most insurance companies understand the benefits offered by impact windows and doors. They are aware of the fact that impact doors prevent strong winds from destroying your house. These doors and windows also prevent intruders from entering your home. Since these windows reduce the risks of insurance companies, most insurance providers offer steep discounts to homeowners, who install these windows. To take advantage of low insurance premiums and better security, many people prefer using impact doors for their door replacement projects. These are ideal replacement doors because they help you recover your investments within a short period.

Jessie Brennan's book 'Regeneration!' is a sensitive understanding of the Alison and Peter Smithson-designed estate
It's a buzz word, 'regeneration', and unlike its slightly spiky friend 'redevelopment' it has positive connotations - of birth and growth and hope and glory. It is supposedly enabling. The exclamation mark in the title of artist Jessie Brennan's book Regeneration! says it all.
Regeneration! is the result of months that Brennan spent in conversation with residents of the celebrated but doomed east London council estate Robin Hood Gardens, taking rubbings of their doormats, and drawing and photographing the Brutalist blocks. Her work is collated in a beautifully produced book with two (slightly incongruous) essays by Richard Martin and Owen Hatherley. It's not that the essays aren't interesting and enlightening, but the intellectual perspective detracts from the project's central intimacy, its deliberate simplicity and ordinariness.
There is nothing intellectual or self-consciously artistic about Brennan's artwork. Her approach is, as one resident at the book launch put it, 'subtle and very human'. The intimacy that her work creates is without doubt what is most powerful, most poignant, and most authentic about the project. The broad aim was simple: to unpick the 'myth' that regeneration is wholly good for everyone; that it deserves a celebratory exclamation mark.
Crumpling paper is a very evocative way of presenting demolition
A Fall of Ordinariness and Light is a series of four meticulous, graphite drawings of four photographs of the seven-storey block on the western side of the estate. Ordinary signs of ordinary life are everywhere - radios in windows, washing on the line, a bike behind the railings. Each photograph was printed, then crumpled to different degrees, and then sketched, so the drawings are studies of the photographs, and each crease is detailed.
Crumpling paper is a very evocative way of presenting demolition; as if knocking down a place where people live ordinary lives is as easy as scrunching up a piece of paper and tossing it in a bin. Each drawing is named after what Brennan calls the 'Orwellian' subtitles of Compulsory Purchase orders: The Order Land, The Scheme, The Enabling Power and The Justification.
Brennan's efforts are a celebration of ordinariness, and this was recognised by the same resident at the book launch. 'The fall of ordinariness. Right,' said Nicholas Ruddock, a retired tenant of Robin Hood Gardens since 1982. 'This is a very ordinary block. It's a brutal block, but it's not that brutal because if you're living inside it, you're looking out. You come out of your front door, and there are some children, possibly playing, or the rain's coming, pouring down. These tactile, these daily things are what need to be cherished, need to be understood and not over-intellectualised. I'm sorry, I think I've said enough.'
Regeneration! Conversations, Drawings, Archives and Photographs from Robin Hood Gardens, by Jessie Brennan with contributions from Richard Martin and Owen Hatherley - 78pp - Silent Grid - £14.99.

How To Choose The Best Date to Get Married in Abruzzo
Your personal reasons to choose the best date to get married in Abruzzo
What is the first thing that a couple think about when he pops the question (at last!) and she says yes?
To have their wedding in Abruzzo, of course! ( :DDDDD)
Ok, perhaps it's not exactly this one, this is the second thing they think of… the first thing is
Yes, the choice of your wedding date is really really important, it will be the day that you will remember forever, not many other dates in your life will be as important to you as this one.
But how to choose the best date for your wedding in Abruzzo?
There are surely many things that influence this choice.
Perhaps there is a particular date that cannot be renounced to, because it is related to a important moment, it has a special meaning for the two of you: the day you met, the day you decided to get together, and so on.
Or perhaps one of you is bonded with a particular day because it was connected with a dear person who is not here anymore (link to post): you might want to honor your beloved granny getting married on the date of her birthday.[You can find more ways to honour your beloved ones on your wedding day]
There are couples who choose a particular day because it has a special meaning according to their religion or according to the horoscope (yes, there are many online searches about what the stars say about auspicious days, did you know that?)
Do you remember how many couples got married on July 7th 2007? Thousands and thousands of couples all over the world! And only because of the so-called "Lucky Sevens", that is the repetition of the number 7, that is considered auspicious in many cultures.
And all the other reasons that may influence your choice
But there are also other things that you have to consider when you choose the best date for your wedding, and personal reasons might sometimes be in conflict with other reasons.
If you have chosen a destination wedding in Abruzzo, for example, you might need to consider the season.
As I told you last week, if you want to get married in winter, you may need to choose a location in the coastline area and not in the mountains, where it could be really snowy and the venues could be difficult to reach.
If, on the contrary, you dream of getting married on a gold, sandy beach, you might need to avoid the period from June to August, when the beaches are full of tourists, and better opt for months such as May or September, so to have more privacy and a better availability of venues and hotels.
It is also important to verify if the date you want for your wedding is not in concomitance with some important public events or local celebrations, such as fairs or patron saint's festivals that are very frequent in towns and villages all around Abruzzo, especially in summer.
In these occasions the traffic is often limited, some roads are closed, public officers have many engagements and churches are busy with the rites and ceremonies connected to that particular festivity.
Not to mention important sport and cultural events. The recent elimination of the Italian football team from 2018 FIFA World Cup was welcomed with relief by some wedding planners and especially by many future brides, who were afraid that their wedding date could coincide with an important match of the Italian team!
Could you imagine a wedding where the majority of guests try with a great deal of effort to follow a football match paying no attention at all to what is happening around them? That would be a nightmare for everybody!!!
I already imagine that now your brain is starting to buzz like a blender, while you grab the first calendar you can find at hand to check weekends, festivities and making the mental note to ask aunt Sofia when it is the patron saint's festival of Lanciano next time you see her, just to make sure it does not coincide with the day you have in mind for your destination wedding in Abruzzo!
But there is a problem.
If you really want to have a destination wedding in Abruzzo surrounded by all your dearest ones, there is still something you have to take into account.
Or better, there is still someONE you have to take into account.
Your very dear ones!
Why? Because the fact that you are more than ready to reach this wonderful region and have an even more wonderful wedding here, does not mean that they are ready, too.
I am sure that many of them will surprise you and be already on the plane the very moment you tell them about your project!
But others might find it difficult, not because they don't want to be at your side on that important day, but perhaps because it is impossible for them to go on vacation in the period you have chosen.
Others might be afraid that it will be very expensive.
Others, especially the younger ones, or your friends who doesn't know and love Abruzzo like you do, might be afraid of "wasting" some precious days of their vacation in a place they don't like.
What do to, then? How to make everybody happy?
I know, that's a difficult task and it might require some compromises, but if you really want your dearest relatives and friends to be present at your wedding, you have to comply with their needs and wishes.
Luckily there are many things you can do to help them.
– Check what is the period when the majority of them can have a vacation, so that they will be able to leave work without any problem.
– If the expense could be a problem for your guests, set the date with as much advance as possible so that they will be able to find offers or convenient fares for their flights, and try to find solutions for transfers and accommodation that won't force them to spend a fortune for your wedding, and so on.
– If they are afraid of not having fun, reassure them of the fact that here in Abruzzo there's plenty of great places to visit and of entertainments, and plan a fabulous program for your wedding holiday.
But the best thing you can do is to contact me now!
As your wedding planner I will give you advice on how to choose your wedding date in the best possible way, avoiding all the problems due to the season, to the local events and traditions, and finding the right solutions to the needs and wishes not only of your guests, but of the two of you, of course!
Your mind will stop buzzing because I will think about these solutions and I will make this difficult decision much easier and serene for you!

How I Manifest: Manifestation, Deliberate Creation and Soul Focus
Here to get your manifestation on? Last week, I manifested $30,000 in sales after spending the night at the Four Seasons and doing my manifestation rituals. And this isn't the first time I've called in big numbers either. A few months ago, I manifested about $40k in sales in a little over a weekend. Before we get into it, I know these numbers may feel intense – and obviously they don't come out of nowhere. Keep in mind: I run a multiple 6 figure business and I have offers (read: opportunity portals) that allow for these sales to come in.

Mystic movies are set of movies in the fantasy theme, which is usually exotic, folklore, mythology, supernatural events and magical. It is a kind of speculative fiction mixed with science fiction and a touch of horror. It is not surprising also that the three genres do overlap most times. In this write-up, we will show you some of the best mystic movies of all time. Continue reading to learn more about them.
Mystic Movies List
El Topo
The movie was released in 1970 and has remained one of the best all-time mystic movies. The movie was produced by Alejandro Jodorowsky. It was actually the first movie ever produced by this Chilean movie producer. He produced this movie while he was living in Mexico City. The movie is both haunting and exciting. It is even considered as being scatological and divine at the same time. The movie is divided into two parts, with the first part following a mystical cowboy acted by the producer, Jodorowsky. In this first part, the mystical cowboy went on a quest in the desert in search of the four masters of the revolver with the intention of killing them.
In the second part, on the other hand, the producer also acted as a deity highly adored by the people having congenital deformities expelled from a town nearby consequent of their ugliness.
The Holy Mountain
This movie can also be called La Montana Sagrada and was also produced Alejandro Jodorowsky in 1973. The producer was encouraged to produce this movie shortly after the successful El Topo by the $1 million he received from John Lennon, who was overtly fascinated by the success of El Topo. The movie is both visually baroque and hermetic. It is equally a highly interesting movie. Jodorowsky's role in this movie was that of an alchemist bent on turning mundane and infected things in the world into pure and divine things. The movie was shot by Rafael Corkidi, a popular and eminent cinematographer. His expertise adds a cruel and stunning effect to the movie with several features of occult symbologies that require a good knowledge of poetic imagery and spiritual studies to understand. However, the movie ended in an anticlimactic and inelegant manner. Be that as it may, the movie compels the viewers to ponder and contemplate deeply on each scene.
The Sacrifice
The movie was produced in 1986 by Andrei Tarkovsky. He is a well –respected director and one of the greatest poets to take interest in cinematography. The viewers will meet with enormous beauty transcending the ordinary appearance of the image and percolating right into the life of the viewer. The Sacrifice is also the last work ever filmed by Tarkovsky and it was viewed in Sweden while he was in exile in that country; Tarkovsky was a Russian. The movie has Erland Josephson as its lead actor and Sven Kykvist as the cinematographer. The movie is about Alexander, a former actor, and philosopher, who on his birthday found himself faced with the end of the world.
The movie goes contrary to the long-held belief that the end of the world will be accompanied by crumbling civilization and great chaos. He described the end of the world coming with a great manifestation of a descent into madness and despair, as well as, a metaphysical sense of dread.
One other fact that makes this movie eerie in nature is the fact that it was edited by Tarkovsky while he laid on his deathbed.
The Decalogue
The movie was produced between 1989 and 1990 by Krzysztof Kieslowski. This work cannot be called a movie per se; it is more or less a mini-series consisting of 10 episodes produced for Polish television. It is a Decalogue consisting of 10 stories portraying the human condition and several experiences that humans come across on a daily basis revolving around faith, compassion, friendship, grief, loss, love and so on. Each of the episodes is also based on the 10 commandments with the question of God coming to the fore on several occasions in the course of the Decalogue.
This movie is more or less a mirror into the human life and mind. In summary, this work divinizes the human individuality. It has God being portrayed as a quiet observer observing the conflicts and dramas on display among humans, without interfering in the life and affairs of his creatures, condemning or saving them. It also portrays God as someone that is not bothered about any decision made by humans.
The Turin Horse
The movie was shot in 2011 by Bela Tarr. The movie depicts the producer's viewpoint about the apocalypse and his viewpoint turned out to be more pessimistic and darker than what was earlier depicted by Tarkovsky. The movie as based on a legend with Friedrich Nietzsche, the philosopher, playing an outstanding role in it. The movie is the last film ever produced by Tarr and it was shot in black and white. The music specially composed for the movie is also outstanding. The movie depicted God and Men as conspiring to cause the destruction of the world.
The movie was shot in 2011 by Lar von Trier. It is a poetic study of disappointment, hopelessness, and depression. The story began on the day Justine (played by Kirsten Dunst) got wedded and followed by the approach of Melancholia, a rogue planet on collision course with the Earth. Justine went into depression, a severe paralyzing one, just after her wedding, but she recovers slowly as the rogue planet drew closer to earth.
The movie is simply discomforting and pessimistic in nature, which earns the movie the label of being von Trier's depression trilogy. The movie depicts human attraction to the dangerous and obscure as part of its lyrical imagery and its innumerable references to the history of art. In Justine's depression and Claire's anxiety, one could see the hearts behavior and its reaction to itself when it is faced with inevitable death and its
The movie was shot in 2002 and produced by Carlos Reygadas, who is among the most renowned filmmakers in Mexico the trend marked by this movie still remains palpable in the auteur cinema in Mexico to date. The movie revolves around an unnamed painter, who took a journey to the remote village from the city to commit suicide. He, however, recovered his desire to live with the help of Ascen, the elderly woman with whom he took a room while in the village.

My previous post on Katrina and its aftermath focused on the contribution made by incompetence – albeit willed and cultivated incompetence. This post is about malice.
As I wrote earlier,
FEMA is now functionally subordinate to the Department of Homeland Security, founded after September 11; this may help explain why FEMA's interventions in New Orleans placed such an emphasis on securing the perimeter of the city and ensuring that nobody, as a general policy, moved. The triumph of the Homeland Security worldview: natural disasters as a public order problem.
Apparently the Homeland Security worldview predates the Department itself; here's a passage from the FEMA article I quoted earlier:
In the 1980s, the Reagan administration endowed FEMA with extraordinary powers to keep the country running – powers bordering on martial law, critics argued. The agency became responsible for "continuity of government" plans devoted to salvaging national authority in the event of a nuclear attack. Other plans, drafted by the likes of National Security Council aide Oliver North, laid the groundwork for rounding up rabble-rousers in the event of societal breakdown, whatever the cause.
Larry Bradshaw and Lorrie Beth Stronsky's story, in case you haven't read it already, is a graphic illustration of how this approach works out in practice. Now picture the forces of order going from house to house as the floodwaters subside, taking survivors away to 'refugee camps', in handcuffs if necessary (I heard that last detail on BBC Radio 4 this morning). And picture the forces of order waiting outside New Orleans until they had built up a large enough force to pacify a supposed insurrection. (Not for the first time, China at Lenin's Tomb has got the goods: the army had no delusions about their remit – it was not to secure human life and bring supplies, but to suppress an "insurgency".) If the aftermath of Katrina is a problem, in other words, the survivors aren't the people who have got the problem – the survivors are part of the problem. In the words of a FEMA staffer at an Oklahoma internment camp, You don't understand the type of people that are about to come here.
What type of people is that? Here's Barbara Bush, wife of one President and mother of another, visiting a stadium in Houston which was being used as a holding camp:
What I'm hearing, which is sort of scary, is they all want to stay in Texas. Everyone is so overwhelmed by the hospitality.And so many of the people in the arena here, you know, were underprivileged anyway, so this – this [she chuckles slightly] is working very well for them.
And here's her boy, visiting Mobile, Alabama:
The good news is — and it's hard for some to see it now — that out of this chaos is going to come a fantastic Gulf Coast, like it was before. Out of the rubbles of Trent Lott's house — he's lost his entire house — there's going to be a fantastic house. And I'm looking forward to sitting on the porch.
Even if we forget who Trent Lott is, this is dreadful, Marie Antoinette stuff. All those people have lost everything? They'll be OK – after all, my friend lost his house, and he's building a new one… If we remember that Trent Lott is the Republican who endorsed the segregationist Strom Thurmond ("we voted for him. We're proud of it. And if the rest of the country had followed our lead, we wouldn't have had all these problems over all these years"); and if we remember that most of the people who got stuck in those New Orleans internment camps are Black… I'm not suggesting that George W. Bush and his government are pursuing an actively racist agenda – that they saw the chaos caused by Hurricane Katrina as an opportunity to to treat poor Black people like dirt. I suspect it's worse than that. I'm suggesting that the government is genuinely attempting to mount an effective response to the disaster – but that its criteria for an effective response don't exclude treating poor Black people like dirt, and may even encourage it.
It's as if the government is running two sets of books on its responsibilities to the public. There are the deep-rooted assumptions of the social contract: if we have a government, and if it intervenes in our lives, it must surely intervene to maximise the safety of its citizens and prolong our lives – all our lives, without distinction. But then there's a political contract, which isn't cited openly but informs the government's rhetoric as well as its policy-making – and that contract says, quite plainly, that those people don't count. Hence, perhaps, a certain genuine bafflement on Bush's part in the face of the public reaction to the aftermath of Katrina: what's up with them? they knew what they were voting for, didn't they?
Here's Alasdair Gray in 1982 Janine:
[Frazer] was telling us about Machiavelli's The Prince. "Listen," he said, "you have just conquered a neighbouring state, right?, and you want to conquer another. So what do you do to the defeated people to stop them revolting against you when you withdraw most of your army?"
We could not answer because we had not read Machiavelli.
"Easy!" cried Frazer, "You split the population into three, take most of the wealth away from one-third and divide it with the rest. The majority have now profited by being conquered. They accept your government in return for your help if the minority start a civil war to get their own back, a civil war which will not occur because the impoverished losers know they are bound to be defeated. The conqueror can now repeat his manoeuvre elsewhere. What I don't understand," said Frazer, "is why no
governments have taken Machiavelli's advice? Surely the first to do it would conquer the world?"
Alan, who seemed not to have been listening, said, "They do."
After a pause I said, "You don't mean the British Empire."
"No. I mean Britain."
I don't think this is a question of racism, in other words. (A friend of mine once wrote that she saw just as much evidence of a class structure in the US as she had in her native Britain; the only difference was that Americans persisted in referring to class as 'race'.) The concerted neglect and casual brutality which have characterised the US government's response to Katrina seem to be the product of an authentically Machiavellian philosophy of government, which holds that leaders can gain consent by mobilising their subjects against one another. We don't get many hurricanes here, thankfully, but we'd be kidding ourselves if we thought that this was someone else's problem:
Mr Blair said he wanted to change the culture of the criminal justice system. He called for "an historic shift from a criminal justice system that asks, first and foremost 'How do we protect the accused from the transgressions of the state or police?' to one whose first question is 'How do we protect the majority from the dangerous and irresponsible minority?'".
A criminal justice system which downgrades the presumption of innocence, the better to neutralise the 'dangerous and irresponsible minority'. An emergency management system which lets people die, the better to control poor and unruly survivors. All we need now is more votes for the decent folk – and perhaps that's not far away (Non-registration was highest in densely populated urban areas with mobile populations, particularly inner London, and areas of economic deprivation).

Harmful fishing practices and high sediment pollution are disturbing the world's oyster reefs, and these disturbances could significantly impact levels of carbon dioxide in our atmosphere, according to a new study. Researchers at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill studied the carbon buried in 22 different reefs and found that, when disrupted, the reefs become sources of atmospheric carbon dioxide.
Why it matters: Higher levels of CO2 in the atmosphere can accelerate the effects of climate change, and oyster reefs may have a role in that process.

Your intrepid reporter has just discovered another article, this one more inclusive of AMI than some others, from a British publication.
Seems travel writers just can't get enough of our little piece of paradise.
Click here to see what they say in Jolly Old England.
This time, it's the Wall Street Journal, thinking there are four 'authentic' Old Florida destinations, all on the Gulf Coast.
The writer never got beyond the city of Anna Maria, which is a bit of a shame. But here's the take, along with Appalachicola, Boca Grande and Sanibel.
Still, I like Anna Maria Island best.
If local traffic is any reflection, maybe it's just as well that Marco Island takes the first spot in Trip Advisor's ranking of the top islands in the United States. When the sun is shining, it's tough to get on in the morning and to get off in the afternoon.
But we'll take the number three ranking, and joyfully! For those of us who live here on Anna Maria Island, it's clearly number one. Most of the year, it's quiet and calm, with a seven-mile stretch of mostly unpopulated white sand. February, March and April can get kinda crowded, though.
It's not the kind of crowded that islands, like Marco, have from high-rises all along the beach. Even when AMI is crowded on the main drag, it's not crowded on the beach. Heck, there are only two buildings taller than two-stories-over-parking on the entire shoreline. Plenty of room for vacationers AND day-trippers from the mainland.
Anyway, here's a link to the story. http://www.tripadvisor.com/TravelersChoice-Islands
I couldn't believe this article in yesterday's Sarasota Herald-Tribune by Real Estate Editor Harold Bubil. Well, actually, I could.
Seems that some folks are just going ahead and lifting their homes out of the flood plain. In some cases, it may cost less than the first year's increased flood insurance.
See what Harold has to say:
According to the Florida Association of Realtors, the House has decided to take up the matter of 'fixing' the drastic rate hikes seen by people who live in flood-prone areas, including Anna Maria Island.
They will not approve the Senate bill, according to the news report, but will craft their own legislation, which will likely then need to go into a conference committee before it is presented to President Obama for his signature.
But something is happening, and that's GOOD!
Here's the story:
Egmont Key is found at the mouth of Tampa Bay. The lighthouse is still working, though no longer manned by the Coast Guard.
On the other hand, there are several trails through the Key, where there were several fortifications built for the Spanish American War. Once it was discovered that 'modern' artillery could blow up the brick forts, though, the place was no longer useful for that purpose.
So after more than 100 years, the island has suffered some erosion, and certainly some of the forts have toppled into the sea. But there are still lots of interesting sights there, including walkways, original brick streets. and the ubiquitous gophers.
Not the kind of gophers you have up north, but gopher tortoises. These good-sized critters have holes in the sand and are threatened in much of their range. But not so much on Egmont Key.
One reason is because the only way to get there is by boat. Here we see our dainty craft on a very gentle day with hardly any swell.
And there are no pets allowed on the island. In part because of the gophers, but also because of the huge bird roost and nesting area on the south end. Definitely don't want any happy mutts chasing the nesting terns, skimmers or plovers.
But it's a trip worth taking. Here's a link to the state website: http://www.floridastateparks.org/egmontkey/
It's likely to be a fun time for music enthusiasts of all types, especially jazz lovers. This year's special guest is Koko Ray, who, with the Anna Maria Island Concert Chorus and Orchestra, should put on a great show.
Here's a summary from the Bradenton Times:

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. – Behind a final-round 77 from junior Abbey Williams, and a pair of 78's freshman Amanda Gartrell and sophomore Madison Wetzel, Florida Southern finished the Lady Falcon Invitational in fourth place among the 12 teams competing at LPGA International.
The Moccasins had a final-round 313, and for the second day in a row counted three scores in the 70's. Williams had the best score of the day, but Gartrell was their best golfer in the tournament with a 2-round total of five-over par 149. That put the freshman from Lakeland in a tie for sixth place in the final individual standings. Williams was tied for 10th with a 153, along with two members of the FSC "B" team, freshman Victoria Cangero and sophomore Tori Higgins.
Florida Southern's fourth counter Sunday along with Williams, Gartrell and Wetzel was fifth-year senior Shannon McKew who shot an 80. She finished in 20th place overall with a total score of 157. That was one stroke ahead of Wetzel. Sophomore Marisa Boccabella was tied for 49th with a 171 after she knocked seven strokes off her score from round one with an 82 in round two.
Cangero and Higgins were the top golfers for the Florida Southern "B" team with their dual 153's. Cangero had a 77 on Sunday, equaling the score Williams posted for the main squad, and Higgins had a 78. Senior Britta Bernth (77) and junior Kolby McWilliams (82) were the third and fourth counters for the "B" team, with junior Anna Millet shooting an 85. McWilliams and Millet each tied for 36th with a 166, but a first-round DQ by Bernth did not allow her to place in the individual standings.
Host Daytona State, which won the junior college national championship last spring, won its season-opening tournament with a 2-round total of 589 (297-292). The Falcons finished 14 shots ahead of Florida Tech, 19 ahead of Seminole State, which was the 2016 NJCAA national runner-up, and 26 ahead of Florida Southern.
The Florida Southern "B" team finished sixth in the 12-team field, with Division I Florida Atlantic sitting between them and the Moccasins' top team.
Daytona State was led by individual champion Jiwon Jeon, who followed her opening-round 72 with a 2-under par 70 on Sunday. Her total score of 142 was three strokes ahead of teammate Grace St.-Germain and Florida Tech's Paola Ortiz.
Florida Southern's next tournament will October 10-11 at Nova Southeastern's Guy Harvey Invitational.

- June in the Parsonage Garden
June Garden Diary
‹‹ Back to News & What's On
The wild rose briar is sweet in spring,
Its summer blossoms scent the air;
Yet wait till winter comes again
And who will call the wild-briar fair?
(Emily Jane Bronte – 'Love is like the wild rose briar')
Well June certainly is our month of the rose in the garden. We have such a show to be excited about. Not only our long standing roses at the front of the house which have so many flowers – whites and reds and more but we have our recent additions to the garden courtesy of national rose grower, David Austin. Of course we have the standard rose donated by them and planted two years ago to commemorate Charlotte's 200
birthday which is a beautiful whitish rose edged with a hint of pink. It can be seen in the parsonage rear garden. A year ago we added a special rose in the 'Branwell' bed ourselves also at the rear which is an orangey colour.
Our latest additions are again from David Austin. These are three rose bushes of a new variety officially named "Emily Brontë" also commemorating her 200
birthday. A beautiful blush rose. Two of these roses are placed in the front garden and one in the rear. The rose was a best seller at the recent Chelsea flower show. Representatives of the parsonage staff attended the show, again courtesy of David Austin, and were presented with the roses.
All the roses not only look beautiful but they smell beautiful too!
Other matters apart from roses have been keeping us very busy in the garden this month not least of all trying to keep the garden watered in view of the very dry weather that we have been having as well as coping with storm 'Hector' in the earlier part of the month. Both Jenny and I have been hosing the garden whenever we have been there. The weather pattern for the second half of the month seems to be remaining very dry so this task will no doubt be continuing, although it seems sad to be hoping for rain!
We have been enjoying seeing the new bed dedicated to Emily this year gradually becoming more and more established and we keep adding small plants along the way. Jenny has introduced some sweet peas to climb branches of some bushes that we cut back and I recently added a Michaelmas Daisy to keep the flowering going into autumn.
Having prepared the garden for the Brontë Society weekend earlier in the month we are now beginning to gear ourselves up for Emily's birthday party weekend at the end of July. We hope to see you there!

In this week's artist conversation, I had the pleasure of meeting artist, Rhiannon Aarons. Rhiannon is in her second year as an MFA student, but when she was just 17 she started formal artist training as an undergraduate at Otis. In her past she has worked at a non-profit teaching establishment to teach the disabled how to paint. Her artwork has been inspired by many artists, but one in particular that she mentions is Dana Reyes. Rhiannon is also interested in anything that is obscure or weird.
The purpose of her piece this week is to represent Satan in the Garden of Eden, and how women can be seen as demonic. In creating her piece she took scans of anatomy books. In the other drawings she used what is called Heckatan (Hecate) which are 3 heads inspired from myths, and since they are myths she researched what they would look like. To do this, she was scratching through paper, then put the paper through the printing press which is the dry print. The other drawings we see are digital prints. Amazingly, All of her pieces together took a year to make, and shown in the pictures below are the Heckatan, and what she drew from the research she did.
In Rhiannon's artist statement, she explains how there has been a lot of confusion, untold truth, and lies about the anatomy of a woman. She states that the "anatomy books that originally perpetuated the misinformation dispelled by Chalker relied on illustrations that were printed using wood engraving; such as, the line quality created by this method becomes one of authority, of an invisible author with an alleged neutral hand." Rhiannon later goes on to say in her statement, that Reed and Page from "Crate for Remains of a Mythical Creature" were on opposite poles but at the end, both women are buried in the same cemetery, they are both reduced to the same earth.
These digital print drawings that she made, represent how the female body is represented as demonic. Not the female personality, but the female anatomy. How the writers and the illustrators, depict the female body with the lines they use are representing women as these demonic creatures. She used these skeleton pieces because as mentioned earlier, she likes weird things. She wants us to figure out what she is trying to get across in her work.
I think that with her interesting, weird work Rhiannon attracted a lot of viewers, which is what she was trying to do. When looking at the work I did not see anything to me that looked like a demonic woman. To me, it looked as if she was doing a somewhat Halloween theme, with the skeletons, and the heads. I thought it was interesting how the skeletons looked similar but they were all very different. In conclusion, I don't think her point got across to me but I believe other people had understood the point she was getting across, how the female anatomy is represented as demonic.
