Mc Donald's would like you to forget that they offer only low skill low paying jobs with few perks or benifits. They've even re-started an old attempt to get the dictionary to re-define the word McJob as something I guess we would all want to do.
I can't speak for Douglas Copeland, but I am pretty god damn pissed off about that. But no matter how pissed I was I figured no way in hell anybody is going to buy that idea from McDonald's I was wrong.
I was watching TV last night. There is a TV in the kitchen. I was making a grilled cheese sandwich. On TV was an all black situation comedy. I don't know how I was watching UPN. Maybe some kind of poltergeist was fucking with me.
At one point in the sitcom a women meets a man for a blind date. She finds out he works at Mickey D's. Before she protest he interrupts her. He gives her the corporate spill about how great it is to work at McDonald's. That one day he will own a few franchises and he will be rich. It won't be long before he can spread the bling bling.
Now I will have to admit to being a bit too white here. I can't recall the name of TV show. Or even what the situation of the show was. I do remember there may have been a couple of hot white girls on the show. Does anyone know what show I am talking about?
How about my minority friends. You guys probably watch this kind of crap. If it helps the girl talking to the Mickeys guy was in a relationship with another regular on the show, but she was trying to get him jealous. I really want to get this article digged, so I am going to need more facts. I want to expose the corruption of Mickeys, UPN, and shitty Hollywood writers who can sell out their souls for a few bucks.
I mean it's not like I would blog about thenew Police album for 10 bucks from pay per post .com

High-Tech Drones Help Combat Rhino and Elephant Poaching
Drones patrolling the skies of South Africa's Hluhluwe Imfolozi Park have helped prevent the killing of endangered rhinos over the past six months, offering hope that the technology can help in the long-standing war against poachers.
The drones, managed by the nonprofit Air Shepherd, provide overwatch on areas that a supercomputer guides them to, based on where poachers are most likely to appear. If illegal hunters are detected, rangers are then deployed to the area to apprehend them before they can take down a rhino.

The technology used to detect the poachers is based on a code used to predict where insurgents in Iraq and Afghanistan might place improvised explosives. Thomas Snitch, a University of Maryland computer science professor who developed the algorithm, said it allows drones to protect rhinos and elephants the same as they would soldiers.
The program predicts the best area to patrol by taking into account data from the rhinos' radio collars and where and when poaching typically occurs. The system is able to detect the location of a rhino with 93 percent accuracy.
"It works because instead of trying to cover a thousand square miles of land, we're pinpointing a two-square-mile area that we know could be a point where poachers and animals will be," said John Petersen, chairman of the Lindbergh Foundation, a nonprofit which runs Air Shepherd.
Drones offer a number of features that allow authorities to gain the upper hand on poachers. Thermal cameras on the drones can pick out targets in the dark that human eyes cannot, and the unmanned aircraft can cover ground without putting human life at risk.
The drones don't require a pilot, but operate automatically based on uploaded flight plans. They are virtually silent, easy to launch, and can land in the African bush without issue. They're also electric-powered and can fly for about two hours. The drones are maintained with parts constructed from a 3-D printer, and the aircraft are cheap enough that a crash won't sink the program's budget. So far, the drones have flown 760 missions and spent over 1,000 hours in the air.
With poaching crippling Africa's wildlife, the project offers a glimmer of hope that African can gain ground against poaching. In the last three years, poachers have killed 100,00 African elephants. Last year in South Africa, more than 1,200 rhinos were slaughtered. If poachers cannot be stopped, both species could be extinct within 20 years.
However, the drone's success rate is encouraging, considering that poachers typically kill between 12 and 19 rhinos a month in South Africa. The team has received requests from seven Africa countries to help protect rhinos, and Petersen hopes to soon assemble up to 50 drone squads across Africa.

The drones and their crew cost about $500,000 a year to operate, and the team is raising funds to keep the airborne protectors soaring for another year. Petersen says that in the battle against the $19 billion wildlife trade, the drones are small price to pay to ensure rhinos and elephants are around for the next generation.

In less than two weeks Americans will head to the polls to vote on a host of offices and a plethora of amendments and ballot issues. Last week in this space we wrote about the importance of passing Ballot Issue 1A, and this week we use this space to urge citizens of the Estes Valley to vote no on Amendment 74.
At first glance, Amendment 74 seems reasonable—property owners pursuing compensation for decreased "fair market value" if caused by government regulation or limitation. Yet if Amendment 74 is passed, it could have far reaching implications that could bankrupt governments, cause unregulated development, create serious funding issues and paralyze progress.
"The risk of expensive lawsuits would undermine the ability of local government to address important issues such as environmental and public health issues, flood mitigation and all land use regulation," Town Administrator Frank Lancaster said.
He is right, and we only need to look at 2004, when Oregon voters passed a similar law. Two years later, there was $20 billion in claims, threatening funding for public schools, roads and public safety.
Amendment 74 gives property owners the ability to sue their local government for virtually any regulation lowering the "fair market value" of their property. For example, take flood maps, which, as we know, new ones are coming sometime next year. Residents can only get flood insurance if those new maps are adopted. If those maps are adopted, it is likely some properties that weren't in the floodplain will be in it this time. This would cause a drop in fair market value, so they could sue the Town. If the flood maps aren't adopted, not being able to obtain flood insurance would drop market value of properties, and they could sue for compensation. If a developer gets a build denied, impacting the fair market value they would have had, a lawsuit could be filed. It would be a lose-lose situation for this town.
These kinds of situations could easily drain the Town coffers to the point other needed projects, like road maintenance or flood mitigation wouldn't get completed. Lancaster said that this might create a laissez faire attitude when it came to land use regulation. If the Town becomes inundated with lawsuits, it would create a situation where they couldn't enforce code because they cannot handle the financial risks of doing so. It would be a free-for-all in the Estes Valley. The strife this town has experienced over the last year over land use and development code issues would pale in comparison to what could happen in 74 passes.
According to Lancaster, out-of-state corporate interests seeking to change the character of Colorado neighborhoods and our rural landscapes, and developers wanting loopholes to build anything they like, anywhere they like support Amendment 74. These changes would not be good for the Estes Valley. On Nov. 6, vote no on Amendment 74.

In an amended opinion on petition for rehearing, the Seventh Circuit would not change its conclusion nor agree with CVS Pharmacy's challenge to the standard of review the appeals court originally had applied, but the court did clarify that the appropriate standard was a deferential abuse of discretion, not de novo, review of the district court's award of attorneys' fees to CVS. As a result, the appeals court did not disturb its finding that the EEOC's Section 707(a) pattern or practice lawsuit against CVS over its use of a broad (and potentially chilling) severance agreement was neither legally nor factually frivolous, and reversal of the over-$300K attorneys' fee award would stand. Addressing CVS' challenge, the Seventh Circuit held that the standard of review in this case was the deferential abuse-of-discretion approach, but in applying that approach, it "must assess whether the district court based its ruling on an erroneous view of the law or a clearly erroneous assessment of the evidence" (EEOC v. CVS Pharmacy, Inc., November 2, 2018, Wood, D.).
Severance agreement litigation. The fee award at issue was based on a lawsuit the EEOC filed alleging that CVS was using a severance agreement that chilled its employees' exercise of their rights under Title VII. The EEOC contended that CVS's use of the severance agreement constituted a "pattern or practice of resistance" to the rights protected by Title VII, in violation of Section 707(a), but the district court rejected this claim on summary judgment, and the Seventh Circuit affirmed that ruling in EEOC v. CVS Pharmacy, Inc. The district court then awarded CVS $307,902 in attorneys' fees, reasoning that the EEOC should have realized, even before filing the suit, that EEOC regulations required initial conciliation before it could proceed with an enforcement action under Section 707(a).
Attorneys' fee award. But the appeals court reversed the attorneys' fee ruling, stressing that "it takes much more than a loss on the merits to warrant a fee award." Instead, the Seventh Circuit found the EEOC's novel legal distinction between Section 707(a) and Section 707(e) procedural requirements affecting conciliation to be a "colorable legal argument" with some basis in the text and with no precedent squarely against it. Even the district court found the EEOC's factual foundation for bringing the case was reasonable, and the appeals court agreed, concluding that the "district court's decision impermissibly rested on hindsight."
Standard of review was abuse of discretion. In its amended opinion, the Seventh Circuit pointed out that its initial opinion had acknowledged that the standard of review for a district court's decision to award fees is abuse of discretion. It also had said, however, that "the justifications for the generally deferential standard of review are absent" for questions of law, and so it would "consider the district court's legal analysis de novo." That was the basis for CVS' challenge, contending that any use of a de novo standard of review conflicts with the Supreme Court's decision in Piercev. Underwood, and with the Seventh Circuit's decision in Mars Steel Corporation v. Continental Bank N.A. The appeals court explained that its decision had been "faithful to the governing Supreme Court cases, even if we were too summary in our initial description of the standard of review."
Must ascertain error of law. In both Pierce and Mars Steel, the opinions concluded that abuse-of-discretion or deferential review was appropriate—in Pierce, considering a question about the proper interpretation of the Equal Access to Justice Act, to review whether the government's position was not substantially justified, and in Mars Steel, for decisions about sanctions under FRCP 11. Decisions about "what is compatible with 'the sound administration of justice'… are inherently questions of judgment" that support deferential review, reasoned the appeals court.
However, Pierce was not the Supreme Court's last word. In Cooter & Gell v. Hartmarx Corporation, which also addressed the question of the standard of review for Rule 11 determinations, the High Court said it needed to consider three types of issues: "factual questions, legal issues, and discretionary determinations." In doing so, it gave special treatment to questions of law, stressed the appeals court. To that end, it quoted the Supreme Court's language that "[a] district court would necessarily abuse its discretion if it based its ruling on an erroneous view of the law or on a clearly erroneous assessment of the evidence."
EEOC position not legally frivolous. Accordingly, the Seventh Circuit held that the standard of review in this case was the deferential abuse-of-discretion approach, but in applying that approach, it "must assess whether the district court based its ruling on an erroneous view of the law or a clearly erroneous assessment of the evidence." As a result, the court reiterated fees should be awarded to prevailing defendants only when the plaintiff's case is utterly without merit, which includes either a determination that the case is legally frivolous, or an assessment that the case is factually frivolous, When it is a farfetched legal theory that makes a plaintiff's case frivolous, we have held that an "award of fees is only permitted when litigation proceeds in the face of controlling and unambiguous precedent."
No dispute as to facts. The case did not involve disputed issues of fact, the appeals court emphasized. It dealt instead with a purely legal, procedural issue: "whether the EEOC must attempt to conciliate cases filed under section 707(a), just as it does in other areas." The question was whether the district court, in ordering the EEOC to pay fees, abused its discretion by "bas[ing] its ruling on an erroneous view of the law." Here, CVS itself argued that the case involved "novel issues that required deep understanding of Title VII's text, structure, and history." But, the appeals court reasoned, if it takes a "deep understanding" of the statute to refute a legal theory, "one can hardly argue with a straight face that the same case was squarely blocked by controlling authority," and as a result the amended opinion did not change the result, which reversed the fee award.

Free WordPress Themes
PremiumCoding offers several free WordPress topics, which behave as"lite" versions for a few of its premium topics. These are stripped-down versions of their premium themes, but they nevertheless offer a significant lot of features. They are more or less designed to give you a flavor of their individual premium themes. The developer offers six free themes, as of April 2016.
It is going to still allow you to construct a complete website capable of showcasing your latest posts if you're a blogger and images if you are a photographer. It only excludes the capability to utilize the Revolution Slider and alter colours.
"Click here to sign up to PremiumCoding.com"
PremiumCoding focuses on blogging topics, but it will offer extra theme categories as well. These include, as stated previously, portfolio topics, e-commerce themes, and business themes. It supplies a great choice of portfolio topics and a couple of business themes so far as quantities go, but its own e-commerce theme collection is a little light.
This is LandScape. It is technically a portfolio motif for most photographers, but it's sufficient homepage demos and flexibility to be utilized as a different blogging theme. It uses a minimalist design that really makes your image stick out.
Presenter is a business theme for entrepreneurs. You can also use calls to action throughout the page in addition to display customer testimonials, your latest blog articles and a slider featuring logos of the brands that you work with/publications you've been featured in, etc..
Marketeer is a special kind of e-commerce theme. It's four-page designs, and it allows you to utilize the power of articles marketing by incorporating different layouts for sites. It uses a clean layout overall, giving you excellent way to promote your merchandise.
Plans & Pricing
PremiumCoding is a theme club, so there are many various approaches that you can pay for and access its themes. Besides using a free theme, you can buy one motif, purchase a one-year membership permit or purchase a lifetime membership license.
No matter which license type you buy, the fundamental advantages are more or less same. You will have access to upgrades and support for so long as your membership is active, and you can use the subject on an unlimited number of domains. The attributes change depending on which license type you choose with.
Purchasing a single-theme license simply gives you access to this particular theme. If you combine the theme bar, you'll have access to PremiumCoding's 27+ motif set in addition to any extra themes the developer releases throughout your time as a member (the developer releases a brand new theme every five to six weeks).
So far as pricing goes, single-theme permits are typically between $39 and $49. Prices for a year of membership generally range between $89 and $129 while a lifetime membership can be obtained for a flat charge of $269.
Final Thoughts
PremiumCoding is a fine theme developer that offers an adequate variety of WordPress themes and plenty of topics to choose from overall. The topics are also easy to use, whether you are a developer or a business owner/blogger who wants to design their own site. Most Followed Blogs On WordPress
The only disadvantage you may encounter as a programmer trying to find a new theme club to use as a resource for your company is the developer's limited source of e-commerce topics. If most of your customers need sites, portfolios and traditional business sites, but this developer would make a great resource to your company.

9 In 1985, the system was modified by adding a separate two-volume index; the Macropædia articles were further consolidated into fewer, larger ones (for example, the previously separate articles about the 50 U.S. states were all included into the "United States of America" article), with some medium-length articles moved to the Micropædia.
The first CD-ROM edition was issued in 1994. At that time also an online version was offered for paid subscription. In 1999 this was offered for free, and no revised print versions appeared. The experiment was ended in 2001 and a new printed set was issued in 2001.

Eco-Tour of a life time in Lahad Datu
When we first heard that there were orang utans in Lahad Datu besides the ones in Danum Valley and Tabin, we found it rather difficult to believe. Simply because even the locals have not heard of it! Bukit Piton is claimed to be the location where one could set out on an adventure in search for this almost extinct species – the Bornean Orang Utan.
Bukit Piton is situated at the Ulu Segama- Malua forest, which was once destroyed by fire and poor logging practices. However, through efforts by WWF – Malaysia, Yayasan Sime Darby, Sabah Forestry Department and the team spearheaded by Dr Teo from Tabin Lodge, this once degraded forest is being restored and nurtured with love – hence welcoming the orang utans and other wildlife back to their home bound.
In late 2016, Bike and Tours decided to check out Bukit Piton on a recce tour. True enough after an hour drive from Lahad Datu to Bukit Piton, just within minutes we encountered our very first Orang Utan. It was an amazing experience to see the orang utan in the wild. This beautiful creature noticed our presence and continued eating before gracefully swinging its way back in the depth of the jungle. We were lucky that over the next few hours to encounter another 2 orang utan in the wild. And that to us was the ultimate! Other visitors have seen more orang utans than us but of course when you are in the wild, lady luck plays a role. The wild is the wild and not a zoo where it is a guaranteed that you get to see the animals caged.
As we ventured further in into this Class 1 Forest Reserve, we learnt that even though forest restoration efforts are taking place, the badly damaged jungle is still falling short on food source for the Orang Utan and other wildlife. Support from visitors to contribute to tree planting and maintenance activities are highly encouraged. Find out more on how you could contribute to growth and maintenance of the jungle.

Huma Abedin is a well-known political staffer from America. She was in the vice chair in the Presidential campaign of Hillary Clinton in 2016. She has also served as the deputy chief of staff to Hillary Clinton, who at that time was the United States Secretary of State. Abedin was the travelling chief during the Democratic nomination of Clinton in the 2008 presidential election. Let's find out how much is Huma Abedin's net worth in 2019.
Early Life
Huma Mahmood Abedin was born on July 28, 1976, in Kalamazoo, Michigan to her parents Saleha Mahmood Abedin and Syed Zainul Abedin. She grew up in Jeddah (Saudi Arabia).
She returned to the USA for her college and went to a British girls' school. She has earned her bachelor's degree in journalism from the George Washington University. She was inspired by Christiane Amanpour and has always wanted to work in the press office of the White House.
In July 2010, Huma Abedin got married to Anthony Weiner, who was a US Representative. The couple has a son named Jordan Zain Weiner born in 2011. She filed for divorce in 2017. Apart from English, she also speaks fluent Hindi-Urdu and Arabic. She practices Islam.
As a university student, Huma Abedin used to work as an intern in 1996 in White House for Hillary Clinton, who was the First Lady of the United States at that time. In the same year, she became the assistant editor of Journal of Muslim Minority Affairs. She served there till 2008.
She has served for many years as the personal aide of Hillary Clinton. She has successfully led Clinton in the U.S. Senate campaign in 2000 in New York. Abedin was her body woman and chief of travelling staff during the Democratic presidential nomination in 2008. She has often been called "Hillary's secret weapon".
Abedin serves as an advisor to Clinton. She has used her expertise, particularly for the Middle East. In 2009, she was appointed as the deputy chief of staff of Clinton's State Department. Following that, she became the consultant for the strategic consulting firm Teneo. She was also a consultant in the Clinton Foundation. At that time, she used to work from home.
In 2013, she became the director of Clinton's transition team. Later she formed a private consulting firm called Zain Endeavors LLC. She was the vice chairwoman during the presidential campaign of Hillary Clinton in 2016. She has openly criticised Donald Trump.

One of the biggest career achievements of Huma Abedin is to be the woman behind Hillary Clinton. She appeared in the lists of "40 under 40" by Time magazine. The list was for "rising stars of American politics" and "new generation of civic leaders". In 2017, she won the Cinema Eye Honors Award for 'Weiner'.
Net Worth of Huma Abedin
Huma Abedin has an estimated net worth of more than $2 million. She inherited this fortune as her regular salary for being a personal aide of Hillary Clinton. She has also assisted Clinton in her private life. She was a paid consultant of the Clinton Foundation. Part of her wealth also comes by setting up the private consulting firm called Zain Endeavors LLC. In 2013, she appeared in a documentary called 'Weiner' along with her husband.

"I've been following her for the past few days. I know where she buys her groceries, where she has her dry cleaning done, where she works. I don't know the color of her eyes or what they look like when she's scared. But I will."
Born to a prominent Chicago judge and his stifled socialite wife, Mia Dennett moves against the grain as a young inner-city art teacher. One night, Mia enters a bar to meet her on-again, off-again boyfriend. But when he doesn't show, she unwisely leaves with an enigmatic stranger. With his smooth moves and modest wit, at first Colin Thatcher seems like a safe one-night stand. But following Colin home will turn out to be the worst mistake of Mia's life.
Colin's job was to abduct Mia as part of a wild extortion plot and deliver her to his employers. But the plan takes an unexpected turn when Colin suddenly decides to hide Mia in a secluded cabin in rural Minnesota, evading the police and his deadly superiors. Mia's mother, Eve, and detective Gabe Hoffman will stop at nothing to find them, but no one could have predicted the emotional entanglements that eventually cause this family's world to shatter.
An addictively suspenseful and tautly written thriller, The Good Girl is a compulsive debut that reveals how even in the perfect family, nothing is as it seems.
Before I even start to discuss the plot of The Good Girl, I have to mention the formatting of the e-ARC I read, which is the worst I've ever seen. (That is, I hope it's ONLY the formatting of the e-ARC. If the finished copy – or even the physical ARC – is formatted like this, it's inexplicable.) There are three POV's in The Good Girl – all first person (the kidnapper, the mother of the kidnap victim, and the detective), and three different time frames. And yet, there is absolutely nothing to indicate when a POV switches. This confused the hell out of me the first time it happened. I assumed it was a single formatting mistake, but it soon became clear that this would be the style throughout the e-ARC. For the first half or so of the story, we at least get the POV switches at the beginning of some paragraphs. But eventually, the switches began to occur WITHIN a single paragraph. Here's an example, shown exactly as it appears in the ARC:
"They don't sell sketch pads at the local outfitters, so I had to drive all the way back to Grand Marais, to some bookstore while I kept her tied to the bathroom sink. I plan a party for her birthday, just in case. I invite James and Grace and my inlaws: James's parents, and his brothers with their wives and children."
If the combination of those three sentences sounds bizarre, imagine reading an entire book like this. The first sentence is from the POV of a kidnapper. The second and third sentences are from the POV of the mother of the kidnap victim. (One of these things is not the like the other….)
I wish I could say that this was the only problem The Good Girl, but it wasn't. I've mentioned before in a couple of reviews of NA novels how much I hate when the female MC falls in love with with a stalker-ish, obsessive douchebag. The Good Girl takes it to another level by having Mia fall in love with Colin, her kidnapper who abuses her and regularly threatens to kill her. It's made clear that this is not an example of Stockholm Syndrome, and that Mia is genuinely in love with Colin. I hate these abuser/abusee "romances," and had I known that The Good Girl featured one, I would never have read it.
I know that not every reader feels as strongly as I do about this topic, and I can set aside my feelings to appreciate the positive aspects of the story. Aside from the formatting, the use of three POVs works. They all help to tell Mia's story before, during, and after her kidnapping. We can never fully get into Mia's mind, but these characters help us to chip away at Mia's barriers.
The only character I really had any sympathy for was Mia's mother. She was a neglectful parent to her two children and the very definition of trophy wife to her obnoxious, domineering, uncaring husband. I absolutely bought that her daughter's kidnapping transformed her and made her determined to make up for her past mistakes. She has a lot to atone for, and she begins to do so with her relentless search to find out what happened to Mia.
On the other end of the spectrum is Colin, the kidnapper. Even though his actions are despicable, we are supposed to begin to care for him, just as Mia does. Sorry, but it didn't work for me. We are giving an incredibly lame and cliched excuse for his decision to engage in kidnapping and terrorizing people. Even though he abuses Mia, we are supposed to forgive him when he begins to treat her not quite so terribly. The relationship between the two is impossible to accept, and I thought it was more than a little disgusting.
The Good Girl ends on a high note, though. If you've heard anything about this book, you've heard about its ending. Yes, it was shocking (to me, anyway), and when I reflected back on the story, I think it worked.
If you don't think you'd have the same problems with Mia and Colin that I did, this is a good mystery novel to check out.
Note: I received an ARC from the publisher in exchange for an honest review.

When you walk into a room, you come with everything you are. Your dreams, your sense of humor, and all of your habits follow you wherever you go. All of those things factor into your personality, and your personality is what makes your closest friends and family gravitate toward you.
Think of some popular companies you consistently do business with. What comes to your mind when you think about them? I'm guessing you think of the product, but you also think of the experience you have with them. Every interaction and every transaction, whether in store or on the web, creates that lovable experience that keeps you coming back for more.
But what exactly is a brand? According to Forbes.com contributor, Lois Geller, a brand is a collection of logos, words, type font, design, colors, personality, price, and service that make up a customer's experience with your company. Essentially, it is a promise of what your customer can expect to get when they do business with your company.
This means that if you want to grow your business and retain customers, you need to spend time researching and crafting your public image. Here are some more reasons you should build a brand and stick to it.
A brand image turns customers into promoters.
People like to do business with a company that they can trust. Buidling a reliable brand creates trust between you and your customers, and that trust moves your customers to recommend your services over the competition. That trust turns your customers into promoters.
A brand image makes you unique.
In an era where the market is saturated with thousands of businesses that do the same thing, what is going to make your company stand out? A good brand image can turn your company into a giant among normal men.
Brand imaging impacts advertising.
Advertising should be an extension of your brand. The type of advertisements you choose will influence what potential customers think of your brand. This is where you have to be careful. Traditional advertising that focuses only on your product can ultimately hurt your business and your brand. Customers don't want to be beaten down with a product and told to buy it. But, if you can connect your product to the experiences of your customers, you can cut through the noise and reach the people you want for your business.
In some cases, a good brand image can be the only marketing your business needs. Global pop singer, Beyoncé dropped a surprise album in 2013 without having done one interview. Over the span of her career she and her team have built a brand so reliable that her album sold millions with no promo while other singers sell in the thousands with heavy promotion.
A good brand image kindles your employees' flames.
The key to keeping your employees productive and in love with their job is giving them something to work for. A good brand image that has a clear mission and purpose will instill a sense of pride and passion in your employees. It gives them something to get behind and push.
Brand imaging simply makes you more money.
People have a habit of paying more for an experience than just a product. A great brand is what makes millions of people flock to Starbucks for coffee rather than a less expensive place. Consumers buy Apple products for the premium experience, not just the high end electronics. Also, a company sells more stock on the stock market if they have a reliable brand. Stockholders know that company is going to deliver on its promise so they trust that company with their funds.
Branding is not something to skip over when building your business plan. A great brand image will endear you to your customers and make your company stand out in the crowd. Branding also influences your advertising, motivates your employees, and ultimately gets you more revenue. It makes your company more personable, and gives it a recognizable face that people can trust.

Malice started as a project of Bassist "The Metal Warrior" Rayman James. Originally it founded by Rayman and his brother Jay Mez. But Mez quickly left the group before it officially got its start. After years of frustration, not being able to find the right musicians to work with, Rayman put the Malice band aside and began working on a solo album. It was in 2009 that he met Sheridan Dolan at The House Of Rock (THOR) Sheridan was preforming with some friends in another band. And Troy Niebergall introduced the two of them and they became fast friends. The friendship is what influenced Rayman to turn his attention towards MALICE once again. So he began writing songs and dusted of some old songs he wrote for Malice, and went to the Studio and recorded some Demo tracks.
With the Demos written and a new young talented guitar player in the band, Malice needed a singer. After Months of searching and placing ads across the entire USA in search of the right singer, Rayman ran across Rob Jolonen at a Hammerfall concert in St. Paul. They had similar music interests so after the show Rob auditioned for Malice out on the street in front of Station 4. A Few weeks later Rob came into the studio and began recording. However this working relationship would not last and began to unravel in the recording studio before the album was even finished. As Rayman and Rob could not see eye to eye on many things and had very different views of the world. Which led to Robs departure from the band immediately following the music video shoot.
Finding a drummer was a bit more of a task, Troy Niebergall sat in to play all the drums on the demo tracks but Malice needed a full time drummer. In the summer of 2010 Malice went through a total of 18 different drummers, who were all either kicked out of the band or left do to artistic difference or personality clashes. Rayman was getting on a plane to head to Romania when he received a phone call from Sean Doan. When Rayman got back from Romania he met up with Sean and held an audition. Finally Malice had found their drummer, and they were ready to record.
In 2012 Malice released their debut album "Triumph and Glory" shortly after the albums release Drummer Sean Doan left the band, due to conflicts with his other bands "Stir it Red" and "Do as The Romans Do". Sean was replaced with North Dakota native David Koepplin Jr. Malice then enlisted the vocal talents of Davide Reece (Accept,, Bangloir Choir) And Malice was ready to go out on tour to support the release of "Triumph and Glory"
After 2 years working with the band David's heart was not in the music and wanted to explore different ventures. Malice wished him well and they parted on good terms. He was soon replaced with David Whitmer from North Carolina, whom was introduced to the band through Jason Davis Malice's tour manager.

May-October 2013
The project was implemented in co-operation with NGO "Noosfera" and supported by EU programme "Youth in Action". The project was devoted to professional and personal orientation of young people and methods of increasing the learning efficiency. Six months long project consisted of three main stages of activities.
The first step included development of summer school program and selecting of 65 participants: 15-19-year-old high school students and undergraduate students interested in the project.
Second stage was a one week long summer school that was hold in late July and early August 2013. The program of the summer school covered these main topics of the project: professions and their hidden specificities, life strategy, work and education in European scale, choice of the university degree etc.
This was studied through a series of non-formal activities: practical workshops, short lectures, trainings, and discussions, as well as integrative role-playing games that simulate labor market and the cross-professional interaction.
The third stage consisted of follow-up activities taking place in the schools, organized by participants of the summer school using an interschool network formed during the summer school. The project is peer education-based as all the activities and training are going to be implemented by 15 young volunteers involved in work group, who are successful specialists in different professional fields (a photographer, a journalist, a financial auditor, a scientist, a programmer, a cinematographer, an architect, an actor, a medic, an engineer etc.).
As result both participants of the summer school and follow-up activities become more aware about various professions and possibilities of work and education in Latvia and Europe, increased practical skills of professions, studied at the workshops as well as increased the skills to learn effectively and independently.

text: Breakfast is the hardest meal of the day for me to enjoy. I like to get up and go, have a coffee and then dive into breakfast at my desk. With limited appliances at work, my options to preparing breakfast on site were limited. Cue in steel cut oats, one of the best foods to reduce LDL (bad) cholesterol. Rich in soluble fiber and slow releasing energy, it's a great ingredient to slow cook and infuse flavours into. I prepare a batch from time to time, let it slow cook over night and wake up in the morning to the sweet aroma of goodness. I then grab it to go, heat it up at work add fruit, yogurt, nuts or all three and enjoy.

Hey guys!
This Thursday, 1st March 2018 is University Mental Health Day!
We've got loads planned for it;
In the morning at 10am, the University senior management team will be signing the Time To Change pledge, which aims to end mental health stigma and discrimination. This is a great step forward for the University and their mental health policy! This will take place in the Staff Common Room (SCR), which is underneath the main canteen in Anselm, on the North Holmes Road Campus.
For more information on the Time To Change pledge please visit their website: https://www.time-to-change.org.uk/
The library are looking for informal feedback on ways to improve, this will be held on 2nd floor in Augustine House and lunch will be provided for people who come! While this is going on, the Students' Union will be around campus giving out stickers and asking students to fill out postcards for people's tips on what they do for mental health, and we will be advertising the main event!
Finally, the main event! From 2-4pm in the Chapel at Anselm, we will be have cuddly animals in for students to come and destress! We will have hedgehogs, rabbits and skinny pigs who will be available to cuddle! We will also be making a display of the postcards and asking students to fill them out there to pin up on to boards!
Here's a link to the facebook event!: https://www.facebook.com/events/240712286499724/
We hope you will be able to make it a great day and be able to talk about mental health!

"It'll take most guys about a month to grow out a full beard," says Olvera. Resist overshaping it in the early days until you can see what you've got going on. (Do use a trimmer to make sure the hairs are all even in length, though.) To calculate the exact amount of time you'll need, check our handy growth period calculator.
Just because you can't grow a full beard by your early twenties or beyond, it doesn't mean there's anything wrong with you. In fact, beard thickness is largely determined by how your body reacts to testosterone. All men have pretty much the same amount of testosterone; beard growth depends on how your body reacts to all that testosterone that happens as you progress through the various stages of puberty, which is why testosterone supplements don't really help with beard growth. In fact, elitedaily.com says that going for outrageous hair treatments may do a lot more harm than good.
A great, detailed article, and I especially enjoyed the informative guide beforehand! The 9100 is increasingly difficult to find, and although Philips still lists it on their website, they themselves and their partnered retailers do not have it available. Thanks again for this great content!
I like the bottle design on this one, which comes with a nice pump action, making it easier to apply to the beard. After I finished this bottle of oil (which was great, by the way) I poured the other oils I experimented with into it, so I could reuse this unique bottle design. MOST POPULAR.
Natural beard oils are typically created with both carrier oils and essential oils, absolutes, and/or extracts. Carrier oils are oils that make up the bulk of the volume of the product and are formulated to condition the skin and beard. The most popular types of carrier oils are coconut, grape seed, jojoba, saffron and argan. They are used as a natural fragrance for the beard oils, but also may have aromatherapy benefits. Since essential oils, absolutes, and extracts are usually very strong they may cause chemical burns or skin irritation, they are commonly paired up with carrier oils in order to dilute them.
Spinach – Rich in Calcium, iron, magnesium, protein, and potassium, all major factors in having healthy beard growth. It works great in smoothies if you want to try and mix it with other foods so you won't taste it.
You might want to try out the Philips 5000 series beard trimmers. It is washable, has a dual blade, cuts from 0.4 up to 10.0mm, even closer if you take off the comb, runs for 60 minutes, recharge done in 1 hour.
As for the "how to" part, in order to get the most out of this product, just scrape a bit of balm with you nail and rub it between your fingers. It doesn't have to be more than a pea size. And that only if you have quite a mature beard already. Once melted, start massaging your beard from tips to roots. Now you're ready to break some hearts!
A great starting point for guys who have never tried out a beard oil before. Bulldog's Original Beard Oil might be on the cheaper end of the spectrum but this stuff is legit, containing natural ingredients like aloe vera, camelina oil and green tea to condition your beard. It's also free from artificial colours and ingredients from animal sources.
The trimmer's sharp stainless steel blades are angled at 45 degrees to create the optimal cutting edge. It's fast and powerful, and you'll get quick, efficient facial hair trimming (and head hair). The trimmer comes with 3-blades and cuts cleanly through even the thickest and most dense hair.
Why grow a beard? Logically, the question ought to be: Why NOT grow a beard? But shaving is the norm and letting the beard grow is the exception. So, it may require a bit of courage to take the decision to grow a beard. Once that decision is taken, it is easily reversed upon second thought. And another would-be beard disappears. When you see a man with a full-grown beard, you know he made the decision to be bearded and he had the determination to stick with it.
That said, if an ingrown hair is super-infected or has warning signs like red streaks coming out of it, see a doctor and get on some antibiotics because facial infections are no joke. And if you don't take that seriously, consider a bad infection could have dire consequences for your beard, so it's important to get severe ingrown hairs professionally treated.
The Panasonic ER-GB40-S is versatile – you can use it on your arms, chest, and other areas – and easy to use thanks to blades that are angled in a way to facilitate clean cutting. It's also easy to clean and transportable. Finally, it's affordable.
My beard wont grow ive got some hair on my face but I just want it to grow faster and thicker. what is the best facial cleanser i can use. i know there are certain foods to help a beard grow faster what can i eat for beard growth
The reason your beard hasn't grown yet is probably your genetics. Still, if you've read the article, you know that there are some steps you can take to try and change that. Eat more food rich in proteins, minerals, and vitamins, start exercising, reduce stress and get full 8 hours sleep. Hope this will help and your beard will start to grow.
Most new beardsmen trim the neckline too high. The ideal location for the line is where the neck meets the head.So whatever your beard area is parallel with the ground, do not trim; whatever is parallel with the world infront of you, then it's ok to trim.
Harvey suggests using balm if you're rocking shorter facial scruff and using the oil if you've reached the bush leagues. Take a 5p-sized amount – your beard oil may come with a dropper – and work in it through your facial hair evenly with your hands. It's best to apply the balm or oil when your skin is slightly moist so the best time may be just after a shower or washing your face. It's also key to comb or brush your beard after applying.
Beard oil is an easy to use beard moisturizer and conditioner that will moisturize the skin underneath your beard, soften facial hair and help create the conditions for healthy beard growth. Beard oil is especially helpful during the first six weeks of beard growth when itching can be a problem. If you have a naturally thick, long beard, you may find beard oil easier to work with than beard balm.
Beard Balm LLC is an employee owned company devoted to spreading awesome beards all around the world. In a small workshop tucked under a staircase in the heart of Detroit, we carefully blend and pour each can by hand. Our dedicated team of men and women care deeply about the environment, their community and of course, all the beards that their labors have been nourishing for the past 5 years. Learn more about our story here.
Beard butter is a product that we're seeing more and more of. It typically has the consistency of something in between a cream and a balm, which, depending on your hair type, may be exactly what you need.
The balm actually sits on your beard and skin longer than the oil does before absorbing, which gives you more nourishing and longer-lasting moisture. This is also what gives your beard some extra shine while keeping it healthy.
Some find that the hold isn't markedly better than the regular Honest Amish beard balm; for others, it works. This could be due to application differences or hair differences—it's hard to say. However, if you've tried everything and it's still not performing better, let the company know that it doesn't work for you, and they'll make it right.
1. Take Supplements: Taking biotin supplements daily is one way to make your hair grow faster, and potentially stimulate regrowth for lost hair atop your head. There's little conclusive evidence for its ability to stimulate the hairs that have fallen out, but one thing most doctors agree upon is that biotin does strengthen the keratin infrastructure of your hair, meaning it fortifies the hair and thickens it. So, in theory your beard grows thicker uniformly across each hair shaft. You can get biotin on the shelves of most drug stores, and there are many companies that tout beard-growing pills, which are mostly biotin and other vitamins packaged with some fancy graphic designs.
A lot of people don't realize the importance of Vitamin C in collagen production and protein synthesis. Your body can't produce protein—and therefore a beard—without it, so it's an important ingredient in today's best beard vitamins, like Virilitas Beard & Hair Growth Support, which has levels of Vitamin C that specifically support protein synthesis for increased beard growth. Plus, it's made in America; not only are you supporting American jobs when you buy it, you're also buying from a company that has to comply with American product safety laws.
As long as your beard makes you happy then that's all that matters. It's important to know that you are in charge of your own beard. If it makes you happy, keep it. If your friends don't support you through the growth process, get new friends. Sometimes this criticism could be because your beard hasn't had the chance to grow out full and reach its full potential. Give it time to grow and ignore the haters!
This is no ordinary, run of the mill brush. There aren't any plastic bristles to snag your beard and pull out your hair. A boar's hair bristle brush is made from, well, a boar's hair. It's great for training your hair to grow in the direction you want, and provides a ton of benefits to your skin and hair. The bristles have a scaled texture that is perfect for sweeping away dust and grime, evenly distributing the oil of your skin, and stimulating circulation in your scalp and face.
Beard Oil is a combination of oils and vitamins that you apply to your beard that is essential for maintaining your beard, mustache, goatee and other other form of facial hair. Regardless of the length of your beard, your facial hair should be taken care of just like you would with the hair on your head and that's where Beard Oil comes in.
Sorry about that. We have a blog post that addresses that exact question. There's a graphic that explains where you should trim. Take a look at this article and see if it answers our question. http://themodcabin.com/beard-styles-the-full-beard/
That's not unusual for those with thick beards. You may need to use more oil, yes, but other things you can try are applying the oil when your beard is still slightly damp. Now, this can be tricky. Applying oil when your beard is too damp can make it appear greasy, so you may have to do a little experimenting to see what works best for you. But by applying it before your beard is completely dry will help trap that moisture in your beard. Next, it's always a good idea to top the beard oil with beard balm. The oils in the balm will also help to condition your beard, and the sealants will help your beard stay hydrated longer by sealing in the moisture.
To help clear up these excessive skin flakes and dirt you'll want to exfoliate. There are a few different ways to exfoliate – through physical means and through chemical means. A physical exfoliator will be something like an Alpha Fit, a scalp brush, or a boar's bristle brush. A chemical exfoliator uses ingredients like glycolic acid or lactic acid to loosen the bonds of the dead skin. You'll want to exfoliate before (or while you are in) your shower. The key with exfoliation is to be gentle with your skin. You're not going to want to rub your face raw or red. Let the products work for you and treat your skin with kindness.
This local and all American oil offers some really great bonuses if you choose to go with them. First of all, it is important to say that the oils are completely natural and an added bonus is that there is a guarantee of no nut oil use when it comes to this brand so you can rest assured if you have an allergy.
Growing a beard or just facial hair for the first time? Trying to get rid of that patchy beard? Beards never really go out of style, but recently, they've been getting more love than usual. Plus it's officially winter! So today I decided to bring you a video on how to grow your beard faster than ever. I think it's safe to say we all want a full, thick beard, and that a lot of us actually have patchy beards. So how do we get there? Watch the video and let me know your thoughts on these tips on how to grow a beard faster!
The Philips Norelco 4500 that was earlier known by the model name Power Touch w/Aquatec AT830/46 is loaded with features that are guaranteed to win your heart when it comes to getting a smooth and a comfortable shave. It gives the user the convenience of both the wet and dry shave and has dual precision shaving heads to get rid of the most stubborn stubble or the longest hair in the beard. A perfect idea for gifting, the electric beard trimmer has multiple features.
These herbal lubricants are distilled from bark, flowers, leaves, roots, and other elements of botanical plants — creating the aroma found in beard oils. Once those aromatic chemicals are extracted, they are combined with a carrier oil to finalize the solution. Examine these usual suspects:
Decide on a cheek line. You will need to choose how high the beard should go on your cheeks. Most people leave this section to natural growth, but if it seems to be creeping up to your cheek bones, you should trim the upper section.
How much should you apply? A couple of drops will usually do the trick, but you may need more depending on the length of your beard. If you are new to the game and your beard is shorter than half an inch, a couple of drops will work just fine.
Beard balm is a versatile product. You don't need to fully apply it as it can be used sparingly in problem areas such as the sideburns. As a control product it is designed to help give shape and keep down stray hairs. It may take a few tries to get the amount right but once you do you'll be ready to hit the town.
Scoop out a small amount (about the size of a thumbnail) of balm from the tin. Some balms require a slightly larger amount, but you'll ultimately be the best judge in determining how much is right for your beard.
Growing a beard is like achieving a lot of good things in life, whether it's a killer body or earning an advanced degree, in that it requires a commitment. And it's not even that long of a commitment when you compare it to other things that require discipline.
While you'll find the perfect amount through trial and error, a good rule of thumb is a dime-sized puddle in your palm for beard oil and a fingertip-sized blob for beard balm. Another helpful hint is to think of it as (much classier) hair gel for your beard — while less will go further compared to gel, your face-hair will tell you when it's nice and saturated much like your head-hair will.
Serious beardsmen constantly seek ways to help their beard reach its full potential. They're open to suggestions and ideas, both natural and human-made when it comes to information on how to grow a full beard. And by human-made, we're referring to hair growth products.
Schneidman recommends putting on beard oil first thing in the morning after showering or cleansing. "This way, your hair follicles and pores are open and can easily absorb the oil," he adds. "Caring for skin, particularly cleansing and moisturization, is crucial, especially if you live in a cold or dry climate. We tend to think 'more is better,' but just a few drops of most things is plenty."
In the Medieval Europe, a beard displayed a knight's virility and honour.[citation needed] For instance, the Castilian knight El Cid is described in The Lay of the Cid as "the one with the flowery beard". Holding somebody else's beard was a serious offence that had to be righted in a duel.[citation needed]
As with all issues we each find with our beards, the more you stare at it, the more flaws come to light and the more you judge your lack of bearded perfection, something that is really out of your control. By constantly judging your own beard, you're only bringing yourself down and as your harshest critic, that can take a much larger toll than most might admit to. Try to remember that no one else who observes your beard is picking you apart like you do and the issues you see in your own beard will be greatly diminished if you can learn to not make hourly notes on your beard growth by constantly looking at its reflection. Moral of the story, the less often you look at your beard, the less you'll be critical of it, and the more progress you'll see when you do take a peek.
Thanks for your question. Unfortunately, since I'm unfamiliar with the products I'd have a hard time determining what might be causing your breakouts. Instead, I'll point you in the direction of a product that I'm confident will help relieve your breakouts and help you grow a strong, healthy beard. Our Core Beard Kit comes with your choice of all natural soap, beard oil and beard balm, as well as a moustache wax. I'd highly recommend choosing our Birch Tar Soap in the kit. If you read about our Birch Tar Soap you'll see quite a few reviews from customers talking about how it helped them with their acne. If you take a look at our Beard Oil and Beard Balm reviews you'll notice that there really aren't any reviews from customers who've had any problems with our products causing them to breakout.

THUNDER BAY, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - Nov. 4, 2016) - Members of CUPE Local 87, who work for the City of Thunder Bay, have voted to accept their employer's last offer in recent negotiations. This will conclude negotiations for the approximately 700 inside and outside municipal workers, whose last contract expired nearly two years ago.
"This was not an easy round of bargaining," said Karen Martin, president of Local 87. "It's fair to say our members found it very frustrating and far too prolonged. We look forward to continuing to provide high quality public services in the City of Thunder Bay."

Queen's Baton Relay: Greg Kellett adds another relay to his list
Greg Kellett has made his mark in a range of sports in Tamworth whether it be volunteering his time or competing.
Baseball, golf and cricket are three that immediately come to Kellett's mind when speaking of his involvement.
The rewards for his hard work, amongst others, have come in two massive honours.
Greg Kellett doesn't volunteer his time for the accolades but that hasn't stopped them coming in.
Kellett was a torchbearer for the 2000 Summer Olympics torch relay before being a batonbearer for the Queen's Baton Relay this year for the Gold Coast Commonwealth Games.
However, being a bearer for both relays wasn't set in stone until later than most. He was a late inclusion for both relays.
Kellett said it "fit in really well" that both honours came after he thought he'd missed out.
"These opportunities don't come along all the time so you grab them [when they do]," Kellett said.
"The same thing happened when I carried the torch in 2000.
"I think they named 5000 [torchbearers] to start with, then they decided to add another 1000 and I was lucky enough to do that, too."
Kellett has been involved in a range of sports over the years and is currently Tamworth Veterans Cricket president.
Knowing what it's like to take part in one of these relays, Kellett is making sure as many of his friends and family are around to experience it with him.
"I described it [being a torchbearer] at the time, it was like being at the birth of my children. You just floated," Kellett, who has family coming to Tamworth to watch him run, said.
"I remember I passed the torch to Roshani Priddis and Roshani ran two legs, about 900 metres or something like that.
"When she got on the bus, I said 'how'd you go?' and she said "I could have run to Gunnedah" that's what it was like."
After the Queen's Baton Relay goes through Coonabarabran – between 9.34am and 10.11am – and Gunnedah – between 12.22pm and 1.50pm – the baton will make its way to Tamworth.
The leg will start at 4.51pm when Wally Warner does the opening section before the baton passes through 16 pairs of hands in total with Troy Cassar-Daley running the last leg at 5.27pm.
The Tamworth leg of the relay starts at Riverside Park before heading down Carter Street, taking a left over the bridge and then a left again on Kable Avenue.
The relay then loops around onto Peel Street where it runs all the way down to Roderick Street before turning back onto Kable Avenue and finishing at the Tamworth Regional Playground.

SEATTLE (AP) — Washington on Tuesday joined a handful of other states that ban anyone under 21 from buying a semi-automatic assault rifle after voters passed a sweeping firearms measure in November that has drawn a court challenge from gun-rights advocates.
The ballot initiative seeks to curb gun violence by toughening background checks for people buying assault rifles, increasing the age limit to buy those firearms and requiring the safe storage of all guns. Only the age-limit portion of the measure goes into effect on Jan. 1; the rest becomes law on July 1.
Kristen Ellingboe, a spokeswoman for the Washington Alliance for Gun Responsibility, said the initiative was one of the most comprehensive gun-violence prevention measures to pass in the United States. It specifically targeted "semi-automatic assault rifles" in response to mass shootings across the country, she said.
"We've seen that assault rifles are the weapon of choice for mass shootings, and when they're used, more people are killed and injured," Ellingboe said. Fifty-nine percent of Washington voters approved Initiative 1639 in the Nov. 6 general election.

"We've see time and again that Washington voters want action to prevent gun violence in our state," Ellingboe said. "They showed that again by supporting 1639 by a wide margin." Opponents have sued to block it.
"Starting today, young adults between the ages of 18 to 20 will have their rights to purchase semi-automatic rifles stripped away," said Dave Workman, a spokesman for the Bellevue, Washington-based Second Amendment Foundation.
The federal lawsuit says the measure violates the Second and 14th amendments of the Constitution as well as gun sellers' rights under the Commerce Clause. Plaintiffs in the lawsuit are firearms dealers in Spokane and Vancouver, a 19-year-old competitive shooter, a 19-year-old in the Army Reserves, a 20-year-old recreational shooter, the Second Amendment Foundation and the National Rifle Association.
Washington Attorney General Bob Ferguson said he "looks forward to representing the people of the state of Washington in court against the NRA." "The gun lobby is trying to thwart the will of nearly 60 percent of Washingtonian voters who supported common sense gun reform in our state," he said in an email.
The full measure, when it goes into effect later this year, will expand the background check process to ensure that vetting for rifle purchases is the same as for buying pistols.

Now, people in Washington who buy long guns are run through the FBI's National Instant Criminal Background Check System, or NICS. Background checks for handgun sales are done by local law enforcement agencies that can access NICS as well as more detailed records that might expose mental health issues or harder-to-find criminal records. And you must be 21 to purchase a pistol.
"This will update Washington state law so the requirements to purchase semi-automatic assault rifle will match handguns," Ellingboe said. In most states, including over the border in Idaho and Oregon, you must be 18 to buy an assault rifle. But Republican-dominant Florida passed a law after a school shooting to increase the age limit to 21.
Nikolas Cruz was 18 when he legally bought the assault rifle he used to kill 17 people at the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida, last February. Four other states — Hawaii, Illinois, Vermont and New York — also prohibit anyone under 21 from buying all firearms.
Workman of Second Amendment Foundation says Washington's measure will take away firearms from law-abiding residents who can easily pass multiple background checks. It will impair public safety and embolden criminals while placing restrictions on people who already legally own semi-automatic rifles, Workman said.

"Study nature, love nature, stay close to nature. It will never fail you," once said the GOAT himself, Frank Lloyd Wright – and this Midcentury Modern gem in Las Colinas does just that. It was designed by renowned Dallas architect David George, a devoted student of Frank Lloyd Wright, and in our opinion, a visionary who quite literally took those words to heart. The result is a nature-forward treasure, quietly perched on a heavily treed lot at 113 E. Northgate Drive. And with a price tag under $585,000, it's a rarity that is sure to go quick. Let's take a look around, shall we?
A Breathtaking First Impression
First, we are struck by the mature lot and timeless appeal of the brick-clad exterior. The walk-up is unreal! Here, canopies of mature trees unfurl with majestic poise, as if to say "welcome home." Step through the front door and you'll soon discover there is not a single room in the house that doesn't embrace the peaceful yet unbounded natural beauty of the estate.

I knew when I wore this polish I wanted to do a bunny as an accent finger. OhMyGoshPolish on instagram conveniently did some bunny nail art the day I was doing my nails, so I used her bunny for referance! Here it is:
I can never decide what colors to wear under Trelly polishes, so I did a periwinkle-purple ombre
The glitter is Trelly's M.I.S.C Polish- I Happen To Love Rabbits (Alice In Wonderland Collection 2014). It mainly consists of periwinkle hex glitters in various sizes, along with matte yellow circles, matte white bars and stars, and white and yellow matte hexes. As always, a lot going on in this polish, but it doesn't look like glitter throw up! And the formula is amazing. A lot of glitter comes on the brush, which she actually changed a long with her bottles. The brush is a thick flat wide one, kind of like OPI's, so that helps a lot with glitter pay off.
Here are the colors I used for the ombre:
Inglot- 669 (Breathable Nail Enamel Line)
China Glaze- What A Pansy (City Flourish Collection Spring 2014)
China Glaze- Lotus Begin (City Flourish Collection Spring 2014)
China Glaze- Light As Air (Up And Away Collection Spring 2009)
I used OPI- My Boyfriend Scales Walls (Spiderman Collection Spring 2012) for the white bunny body. Orly- Cotton Candy for the ears and nose. Anise- Island Lover for the blues of the eyes, and Wet n Wild- Black Creme for the blacks of the eyes.

Sober at 22
At age 21 my life was falling apart. I felt like I was alone, I was very sick and very tired. I had not had a real nights sleep in months.. or years. I could not go 4 hours without a drink or hit without getting violently ill. One night I realized everything I was doing was not me, the people I was with were not real friends. I had become selfish and had fallen into the violent doward cycle of guilt, drinking over it, making more bad decisions then drinking and using more to try and forget about it. I was sick and tired of being sick, and tired. I needed help and I was lucky enough to find it. Since finding a 12 step program my life is amazing and i have become the good caring person i always knew i was. I could not be happier with my life, my highs as a sober young person are so much better then any high from all the drugs i had done. I say i was lucky because since then i have know three of my friends who did not want to change their ways and they have overdosed and died. I can wake up everyday and be happy and sober. I am now 26 and am so grateful and happy I was able to find help. I also did not realize how much fun being sober could be. I hope this can help at least one other person. Young people do suffer from alcoholism and drug addiction... and those who have decided to chage their lives are happy.
