These bugs have legs 150 times stronger than ours
Clusters of long-legged creatures congregate around my screen door and atop my plants.
Granddaddy or daddy long-legs, also called harvestmen, turn up just about everywhere inside and outside of my home. I find them on walls and plants, the clothesline and the stone patio.
Daddy long-legs are arachnids, more closely related to scorpions than to spiders. They have one body section, two eyes and a segmented abdomen. Spiders have two body sections, eight eyes and are unsegmented.
Like spiders, a normal daddy long-leg has eight legs but can survive if several are torn off. I've been counting their thread-thin legs lately. Mine always have six or seven. It's amazing how such delicate legs, as thin as a strand of hair, can support their bulbous, bubble body.
If our legs were that thin, we would collapse. Seventeenth century scientist Robert Hook estimated the strength of the harvestman's legs by comparison: legs "150 times the strength of man would not keep the body from falling on the breast."
Urban legend says that daddy long-legs have the most potent venom of any spider, but their fangs are either too small or too weak to puncture human skin. I've never been bitten, and I've handled hundreds.
Daddy long-legs are ranked as good bugs because of their habit of invading spiders' webs. They trick the spiders into coming out by vibrating the web to mimic a trapped insect. Opportunistic hunters, they also eat insect eggs and other soft insects, plus decomposing plants and animals. Harvestmen clean each long leg after a meal, pulling them one at a time through their jaws.
Daddy long-legs can live up to a year, but die earlier in colder climates. In the north, most die in the fall after eggs are laid in soil, under stones or in wood crevices. In the south, they winter under organic matter.
In our changing climate, they must be fattening up for winter.

Aching or heavy legs - what the experts say
Good habits to get into
To avoid circulatory impairments during pregnancy, prevention is essential:
- If you need to, try to lose weight before getting pregnant and then limit your weight gain during pregnancy.
- Take walks or do light exercise, which boosts blood flow.
- Wear shoes with a small heel that is neither too high nor too flat (3 to 4 cm or 1 to 1.5 inches).
- Avoid tight-fitting clothes and constricting socks.
- If you suffer from any plantar arch problems, wear corrective insoles.
- In certain cases, wearing compression stockings and taking venotonics may be recommended during pregnancy, starting in the second month; ask your doctor.
If you experience the sensation of heavy legs despite these measures, try some of these tips to help ease the discomfort:
- Raise your feet from the foot of your bed.
- At the end of each shower, spray cold water over your legs in an upward motion from the ankles to the thighs.
- Avoid sources of heat (prolonged exposure to the sun, high-temperature baths, underfloor heating, etc.).
- Massage your legs every day, from the ankles to the knees, using a specific treatment cream to increase blood return and stimulate blood flow.

FFH: The Ties That Bind
- 2004 15 Nov
Nashville's The Castle recording studio hearkens back to the Middle Ages with its imposing grey stone structure, sprawling green front lawn and wooded area behind. Coming up the long, winding drive, one almost expects to see armored knights on horseback guarding the entryway. Strangely enough, local legend has it that famous Chicago gangster Al Capone originally built it as a hideout — his half-way point between Chicago and Florida.
Rounding the corner to park your car, however, sets The Castle in a contemporary context. An elaborate alarm system clocks your presence, in place, no doubt, to protect the pricey recording gear used recently by country star Brad Paisley and too many Christian artists to count. Land Rovers and Fords line the perimeter, and a basketball court has now eclipsed the parking lot. Cigarette butts and empty Coke cans are evidence of the hours logged and the music created here.
This Tuesday morning, Essential Records act FFH is gathered to shoot a promo DVD to accompany its new record, "Still the Cross," due out this month. Band leaders/husband-wife duo Jennifer and Jeromy Deibler are bleary-eyed from yesterday's long airplane ride followed by a late night with their 1-year old, Hutch.
However, after a session with the band's stylist, professional hair and makeup in place and trendy rock-star attire on, the two look fresh and ready for their close-ups. In between takes, they take time to chat about their new record. The interesting thing that emerges from speaking with the Deiblers, bassist Brian Smith and guitarist Michael Boggs is not quite what one would expect from the group with seemingly endless energy. While we did discuss the album's 10 tunes (all co-written by band members), the producers (FFH's longtime friend Scott Williamson and Mark Miller) and its sound (catchy pop/rock fans have come to expect from the band), these guys let us in on what really goes into making the band. And it's not your average VH1 special.
Maybe it's because they are all, self-admittedly, exhausted — from babies, touring and recording — that they are bare-it-all honest today. But it's stuff they want us to know. Like, for instance, that while life as a best-selling Christian artist has its perks ("It's allowed me to buy a house," says Boggs.), it's also just another day at work sometimes. And there are days they just don't want to go. After a year of immense change, including new additions to the families and the passing of loved ones, "The only way we would be doing this is because we are supposed to, that we were called to it," Jeromy says.
Making the Band
FFH credits its beginnings nearly 13 years ago, when Jennifer, Jeromy, Smith and former member Steve Croyle began playing together. The band didn't sign its record deal until nearly six years later. Croyle departed shortly thereafter, and Boggs stepped in. And that's when FFH really started taking shape, Jeromy says.
On early, independent records ("Called a Christian," 1996, and "One of These Days," 1998), the band members employed top-notch, technical studio musicians to help round out the sound as they worked to improve their own musical chops. "When we first came to Nashville in 1998 and watched how the whole studio thing worked, it was intimidating. We realized that we couldn't play our songs and make them sound radio-ready. My background was more piano-based; Brian had just picked up the bass. We went from a group of singers to a 'band.'"
The miles logged playing live shows forced FFH to sharpen its act. "Ready to Fly" (2003), its previous album, served as the rehearsal. The band had decided that, for the first time, the core group would play the bulk of the songs; and studio musicians would be used for "ear candy' only," Jeromy says.
"Still the Cross" finds the band confident and assured of its newfound roles. Alongside Miller and Williamson, Jeromy wielded control from behind the producer's console as well. And it actually felt comfortable, he says, since he put in his share of knob-turning as producer on projects by Fervent Records artist Big Daddy Weave and new Fervent artist Palisade. Additionally, the songwriting for "Still the Cross" represents the band as a whole, more so than any other time because more of its members had a hand in writing. Jeromy co-wrote material with Smith and Boggs, partly "from necessity as we were working on so many songs at one time," he says.
The result is a body of work that represents the band on all creative fronts. "I think we've found 'our sound,'" Jeromy says. "Not only are the vocals trademark, but we're really coming into our own. It's like we just hit our stride," he explains.
Laying the Foundation
Functioning as a band, however, means far more than perfecting the musical aspect. Though it's common to hear of band breakups due to "creative differences," it's often the stuff outside of music that serves as the agitator. Throughout history band mates have been notorious for their lifestyles as much as their musical prowess. A shared outlook on life is an important and binding thread for any collective. For this band, the commonality has always been Christ, Jeromy says. "We had the opportunity early on to learn everything that it takes to be a band, aside from the music."
He recalls a series of conversations that took place when Boggs first joined the band. "We talked about how our lifestyles would be different if we weren't in this band. We talked about what FFH was going to leave as a legacy. It's more than just playing and singing. Christian music is not a style of music. It's a lifestyle of people who listen ... and we got all that stuff figured out before we put on this mantle," he explains.
Eschewing drinking alcohol and smoking and cautiously filtering the movies they watch on the tour bus are self-imposed restrictions for these band members. "But it's not to be legalistic," Jeromy explains. "It's just to be safe. It's to make sure we create an atmosphere that's pursuing God."
Boggs interjects: "Some people try to get as close to the line of sin as they can without going overboard. We just want to stay away from that line so as to be holy, pure and blameless as [the apostle] Peter taught."
Foundational for this band has also been the importance of family over the years. Aside from Boggs, all the members, including the touring drummer are related. Thus "keeping us together hasn't been an issue," Jeromy says. "There hasn't ever been a time when we said, 'Let's just bail on this.'"
The last year, however, given the arrival of the Deibler's firstborn, the birth of Smith's second child and a death in Smith's family, among other changes, forced FFH to look hard at its future.
Juggling career and parenthood has proven more difficult than anything they ever anticipated, Jeromy says. "People ask us, 'How do you balance all this?' We tell them flat out, 'We don't!' We're not good at it yet." Jennifer concurs, "Every day I consider quitting. But then I go out on the road, and I say, 'God, You're going to have to reconfirm to me that this is where You want me.' All I want to do is be with my baby," she admits.
Next to parenthood, it's a general maturing process — for all the members of FFH—that's prompted them to such soul searching. All the members span the mid-20s to mid-30s. And they actually welcome adulthood now, with all its responsibilities, they say.
"When you're in your early 20s, most people think, 'Oh, if I could just travel and have fun," Jeromy says, "But something happens in your mid-20s when you start to crave a home church and an inner circle of friends that you can really confide in."
The late 20s hits, the 29-year old Jeromy explains, and the importance of community-building is just magnified. "You're so scared your whole life of becoming an adult; then you get into your 20s, and you start to want to live like an adult. You start to want that normality," he says. "We don't have that."
Though "normal" is still a foreign concept, FFH seems to be inching closer. Smith says all the changes have demonstrated to the group how much more to life there is than FFH. "We're entering a new season," he says optimistically. "We've come back around, and we're enjoying it more than ever now."
Boggs agrees. "Some years are exciting; some are harder — like this past year. But when you consider the course of things and when you see how God is placing things in your life, you realize that He's moving you to this point because He knows what's coming up."
Despite their limited future forecast, all members agree that they've finally come full circle. "In '91, when we were starting, we couldn't have stood up onstage and done it live like we do it now; we wouldn't have been able to," says Jeromy. "It really is 10 percent talent and 90 percent hard work. It's learning how you grow together, play together, pray together and learn about each other."
FFH credits a solid foundation rooted in Christ as the glue that's held them together through the natural flux of life. Boggs explains: "Teaching that there was power in Jesus' blood was an important thing for us at the beginning of our career. We made that statement of faith with our first record, "Power in the Blood." "Still the Cross" is an echo of that. Our mission is to reach as many people for Jesus as quickly as we can ... and that's the reason we still make this music."

Here's a chance to increase your voting rights knowledge, as we all try to whittle down these hours before finding out who won and lost in today's general election.
Nearly everyone over the age of 18 can vote in North Carolina, including those who are jailed and awaiting trials on charges of various crimes.
"Being accused doesn't affect your right to vote one way or the other," said Eddie Caldwell, the director of the N.C. Sheriffs' Association.
Casting a ballot, however, would have taken some forethought on the part of the inmate, with voting done through absentee ballots.
Only those who are convicted of felonies and currently serving out a prison or probation sentences are prevented from voting. That leaves those who are serving out misdemeanors, people who finished serving felony sentences, and those in jail awaiting trials able to exercise their rights to vote.
But, you can't exactly walk to your regular polling place if you're locked up in jail on Election Day.
Jailed inmates have to vote by absentee ballot, and that means interested inmates needed to have made a request to their county elections board before last Tuesday for absentee ballots, said Isela Gutierrez of Democracy NC, the good government and voting rights non-profit.
Caldwell, the sheriff's association director, didn't know how the state's 100 sheriffs handle requests to vote, nor how much of the jail population typically votes in an election.
In Wake and Durham counties, Democracy NC and the Southern Coalition for Social Justice held voter registration drives in jails and helped 58 inmates in Wake and 93 in Durham request ballots for this year's election or register to vote, Gutierrez said.
Durham jail officials allowed the groups to directly help inmates request ballots, but jailers in Wake County handed out information about voting rights themselves there because of jail staff said they didn't have enough staff to allow for more interaction with inmates, she said.
Losing out on their right to vote today will be inmates arrested since the Oct. 30 deadline and anyone who might have woken up in a jail cell this morning wanting to vote without taking steps beforehand.
"It's definitely too late if you're there right now and you haven't made any other arrangements," Gutierrez said.

Robert Dahl, political scientist, dead at 98
NEW YORK (AP) -- Robert A. Dahl, an esteemed and influential political scientist who in such books as "Who Governs?" championed democracy in theory and critiqued it in practice, has died. He was 98.
A professor emeritus at Yale University, Dahl died Wednesday at a nursing home in Hamden, Conn., according to his daughter Sara Connor.
His career lasted for more than half a century, but he was best known for the 1961 publication "Who Governs?" Cited by the Times Literary Supplement as among the 100 most influential books since World War II, "Who Governs?" probed the political system of Dahl's own community at the time, New Haven, which he considered an ideal microcosm for the country: two strong parties, a long history and a careful progression from patrician rule to self-made men to party rule, where candidates of varied ethnic and economic backgrounds -- a garage owner, an undertaker, a director of publicity -- might succeed.
Dahl wanted to know who really ran the city, and, by extension, the country. Sociologist C. Wright Mills, in "The Power Elite," had written that wealth and power were concentrated within a tiny group of people. Dahl believed no single entity was in charge. Instead, there were competing ones -- social, economic and political leaders whose goals often did not overlap. He acknowledged that many citizens did not participate in local issues and that the rich had advantages over the poor, but concluded that New Haven, while a "republic of unequal citizens," was still a republic.
Dahl's conclusions were strongly challenged in the 1970s by sociologist G. William Domhoff, who used research provided in part by Dahl himself to find that he had underestimated the power of the business community and overestimated the divisions among New Haven's leaders. Domhoof alleged that Dahl relied too much on the people he spoke with.
uprisings of the 1960s and '70s. In 1965, he headed a committee that gave students a role in granting tenure to faculty members. Six years later, he chaired a committee that led the school to start a program for African-American studies.
Dahl was born in Inwood, Iowa, in 1915, and a decade later moved to Alaska, when it was still a territory. He graduated from the University of Washington in 1936, and received a Ph.D. from Yale in 1940. During World War II, he was an economist on the War Production Board and later served as first lieutenant in the Army, receiving a Bronze Star. He joined the Yale faculty in 1946.
He became president of the American Political Science Association and won several prizes, including the Talcott Parsons Prize for social science. His other works included a popular textbook, "Democracy in the United States"; and "Polyarchy," a term coined by Dahl for a modern, decentralized democracy. Connor, his daughter, said Friday that he prided himself on making political science accessible to "general readers."
Dahl established several conditions he considered necessary for democracy (and polyarchy), including freedom from foreign interference, the peaceful transfer of power and the right to vote.
In recent years, he increasingly questioned whether any existing government fully deserved to be called democratic. He worried that economic inequality made political equality impossible, yet believed that open markets were needed to counteract government control. In "How Democratic is the Constitution?", he criticized the framers as elitist and short-sighted for not ensuring women's rights and for counting slaves as three-fifths of a person when determining a state's right to representation.
"This was simply diabolical, because to the insult of defining a person held in bondage as three-fifths of a human being it added the injury of using that definition to augment the political power of that person's oppressors," Dahl wrote. "Wise as the framers were, they were necessarily limited by their profound ignorance."
In "Democracy and Its Critics," Dahl examined the evolution of democracy from ancient Greece to the present. He noted how fully participatory democracy was only possible in a small community such as Athens (where women and slaves could not vote) and documented how political thinkers came to accept that representation by elections was the only way to sustain democracy in a larger country.
Using Socratic dialogues, he also considered the arguments of those who opposed democracy, from anarchists arguing for no government to "guardians" supporting rule by a well-trained elite. Dahl explored what made a system democratic, what endangered a democracy and what ensured its survival. He welcomed the rise of so many democracies in the latter half of the 20th century, from Eastern Europe to South America, but doubted whether any country could meet all of democracy's goals.
"Yet the vision of people governing themselves as political equals," he wrote, will remain "a compelling if always demanding guide in the search for a society in which people may live together in peace, respect each other's intrinsic equality, and jointly seek the best possible life."
Dahl was married twice, the second time to Ann Sale Dahl. He had six children.

The damage of cell membrane leads to release of cytoplasmic enzymes. The measurement of released cytoplasmic lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) is a well-accepted assay to estimate cell membrane integrity and quantify cytotoxicity. The SensoLyte® Cell Cytotoxicity Assay Kit uses resazurin as a sensitive fluorogenic indicator (Ex/Em=560 nm/590 nm upon conversion) to measure LDH activity. The assay can be performed in a mixed population of damaged and viable cells, but only measure the LDH released from damaged cells. The cytoplasmic LDH in living cells produces little signals under assay condition. There is no need of extra steps to separate living cells and supernatant. The fluorescent signal is proportional to the number of damaged cells (up to 2.5X104 cell, r2>0.95) with the detection limit reaching 100 dead cells. The kit is suitable for high throughput screening of cytotoxicity of a variety of compounds. The 384-well or 1536-well format can be used with minor modifications. The kit contains: Assay mixture Assay buffer Lysis solution Stop solution A detailed protocol Kit size: 5000 assays

There is some great fishing across our region in both the fresh and salt water, most of it is right under our noses – we just need to learn how.
In the case of my most recent sampling of the excellent inland fishing for Murray cod, I have confirmed past knowledge of studies on this fish, learned some new
lessons, and gained memories without equal.
I started by checking some old haunts that last fished well many years ago when lake levels were high enough to create ideal cod habitat along some steep rocky shorelines.
These spots are not secret, including the Bidgee Arm of Lake Burrinjuck where I hooked the giant mumma pictured, and in fact some of the first images of this fish that were posted on my web page were even GPS tagged!
But knowing where big cod live, despite popular belief, is certainly not the only key to catching one.
In fact I can tell you now that thousands of people drive past them every day.
For example there are monsters in Lake Burley Griffin under both bridges, at the Scrivener Dam Wall, on the new snags the 2010 floods brought to the east basin, outside the museum where the river channel cuts close to shore, and even occasionally under the jetties at Yarrulumla House!
These are but a few examples, and if you head out to Burrinjuck, Blowering, Wyangala, Googong, Lake Hume and more all have massive cod over the 100-pound mark.
These fish move to the prime lies as water levels fluctuate, and they own that turf.
They are a little easier to catch when they first take up residence, however far from being stupidly aggressive, the biggest ones have become acutely aware of the sounds, shadows, vibrations and water movements around their homes.
They know when an a electric motor, depth sounder or rattling lure comes ticking by and straight away become extremely hard if not impossible to catch.
And they do, without question, get harder to catch each time courtesy of modern day catch and release.
Sure, occasionally they get caught off-guard and snap aggressively or hungrily at a loud lure.
They will even swim over and take a yabby or worm that an unsuspecting newcomer has cast in, sometimes causing delight, but more usually resulting in a monumental bust off – big cod are very hard to bring in over a bank so a boat is best.
All this was reinforced to me when I got into a hot patch of big cod fishing in recent weeks.
On one night cod tapped the flippers on the Hobie, at first I thought I must've clipped a floating log (it was five metres deep), but as I worriedly turned to look behind me a boil the size of my car appeared.
Several minutes later another one inhaled one of the small redfin holding front of my kayak.
The third boof made me look up 75 metres ahead where I was gobsmacked to see the resulting 15cm high wave peel across the surface!
The last boof happened two hours later, and by then I was pretty tired and thought the sound was a car door shutting back at the launch spot, or a car crash way over the hill.
It was a deep low distant sounding thud, and it didn't even register as a cod boof, until several seconds later when a huge upwelling erupted in front of my kayak.
A shivering instinct told me this was definitely another massive fish.
I used loud rattling hard-body and spinner bait lures all that night, and on several other occasions, and I have no question these giant cod knew my lure was there, but not one of them touched my offering.
Several evenings later, my line went slack and I was amazed to see one big mumma push the lure back to me on its head, seemingly glance at me, and then swim off!
Back at the drawing board I down-sized to prototype Fishing Australia tournament series spin stick, part of a new range which has just been released into tackle stores for Christmas.
I went down to 20-pound braid and 25-pound leader, and tied on the best redfin imitating lure I know of – Storm Naturistic Wildeye Perch.
Most importantly, on the next calm night I pedaled ever so quietly into position 50 metres from the prime lairs and cast these very quiet and subtle but realistic looking lures at the prime lies.
I used every ounce of skill I had and caught three extra-large cod in three trips (the largest one is pictured).
All were memorable, but the biggest one in particular was an epic battle, and I had to continually crank the hobie over at speed to get between the fish and snags to shepherd her away from busting me off.
The adrenaline flows just recounting the fight, and of course she was released, wiser for the experience. I also removed a number of illegal set lines from the area that someone shamelessly put there to kill and keep big cod.
There is giant cod in them there hills, if you get one you will both learn from the experience and don't keep one for Christmas, as a golden perch, trout or redfin is an easier, tastier, and much moresustainable catch.
See you on the water,Rob Paxevanos

Expanding Your Development and Investment Perspective......Connect with Rock County
(Janesville, WI) By Jim Leute, Gazette
When Steve Yeko Sr. first got into the jewelry business, the real estate mantra of "location, location, location" could be translated into a single word: mall.
"It was all about the mall," said Yeko, who in 1986 opened The Diamond Center at the Janesville Mall with his wife, Heidi.
"Malls were the place to be for jewelry stores."
Much has changed, and The Diamond Center will change addresses early next year when it leaves its home of 28 years for a freestanding store farther down Milton Avenue.
The Yekos plan to break ground as early as July on an 8,900-square-foot building on an outlot parcel near Menards and Arby's.
The Diamond Center will occupy the majority of the building, and the remaining space will be leased to one or two tenants.
"This is going to be a gorgeous building," said Barry Badertscher of Badertscher Commercial Real Estate in Janesville, who helped the Yekos settle on the site near Interstate 90/39.
"It will easily be the best looking building on I-90 in Janesville, and it will be a great billboard for the city."
Gale Price, the city's manager of building and development services, is even more effusive.
"I've been talking this up for a week and half since getting the drawings," Price said. "It will be a showcase architectural piece for this community.
"It's good-sized, it's unique and it will be a great addition to that end of Milton Avenue."
The building designed by Angus Young Associates in Janesville will feature extensive glasswork, primarily on the two-story section that will house The Diamond Center. Sales will be on the first floor, with offices and a mezzanine on the 2,900-square-foot second floor.
Yeko said The Diamond Center, which also has a store in Madison, has been on a series of one-year leases at the Janesville Mall.
Yeko's son Steve Jr. and his wife, Holly, also are involved in managing the company that employs about 35 people at its two locations.
"We've been thinking about doing this for some time," he said. "We feel that the time is right, and we found a great location."
Badertscher said that in trying to help the Yekos find a new site, he visited with nearly every property owner on Milton Avenue.
"Nobody wanted to sell, and that's a very good sign for Janesville," he said.
In the last 18 months, Janesville's commercial real estate market has improved, driven in large part by a retail sector punctuated with outlot growth along the Milton Avenue corridor. City officials, brokers and developers attribute that to a shift in retail thinking.
More and more retailers want smaller stores that their customers can easily find and access.
While Yeko's new store will be about the same size as its mall store, he subscribes to the outlot approach.
"We're more of a destination store," he said. "People want to drive up, park and do their shopping without having to wander through a mall to find us."
In addition, there's a belief among some in the industry that malls have been overrun with cookie-cutter jewelry stores that rotate through leases and leave an impression of diminished quality.
Yeko is quick to say his store has done quite well in its nearly three decades at the mall. The mall, he said, also benefited from The Diamond Center, one of its largest non-anchor stores and easily one of the mall's top performers in sales per square foot.
"It's definitely been a win-win for both of us," he said.
Julie Cubbage, the mall's general manager, said she would be sorry to lose The Diamond Center.
"They are a long-time Janesville business and have developed a large customer base who I'm sure will continue to support a local jeweler as reputable as The Diamond Center," she said. "I wish them success in their new location and we will miss them."
Cubbage said the mall, which is owned by CBL Properties, is always working to fill vacant spaces. She said she prefers to look at vacancies as opportunities rather than problems.
The pending loss of The Diamond Center and the loss earlier this month of long-time anchor JCPenney are examples, she said.
It "brings us the opportunity to make some changes," she said. "I cannot release names at this time, but CBL is currently negotiating to bring several new retailers to the market. These new retailers will not only create a new landscape for the mall, they will also fill a void."
Yeko said The Diamond Center move will allow the store to upgrade equipment, create an environment that's better for customers and set its own hours.
It also will include more visual displays and technologies to help customers with their jewelry decisions.
"We've listened to what our customers want, and they've really helped us reach this decision," Yeko said. "This is really a good time to do this.
"Steve and Holly are the second generation, and they've been heavily involved. This is a great opportunity for the second generation of our family in this business."

The National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH), as part of its We the People initiative, today announced six winners of the second annual Idea of America essay contest for high school juniors.
Winners of the 2004 Idea of America essay contest are Caitlin Carroll, 17, of Marietta, Ga.; Leah Nolan, 17, of Twin Lake, Mich.; Avram Sand, 17, of Teaneck, N.J.; Rachel Shafer, 16, of Longmont, Colo.; Laura Srebro, 17, of Napa, Calif.; and Brian Thurbon, 17, of Topeka, Kan. Each winner will receive a prize of $1,000. In addition, NEH will honor the six winners and present them with medallions recognizing their achievement at a national award ceremony held in Washington, D.C., at Ford's Theatre Oct. 18. At this ceremony, one will be recognized as the grand prize winner and receive $5,000.
This year's essayists responded to the question, "How does the Gettysburg Address reflect America's founding ideas, and what is the relevance of the speech today?"
"These exceptional young Americans have written essays that reflect upon the timeless words of Abraham Lincoln, the role of memory in American history, and the relevance of our Nation's founding ideas in our time," says NEH Chairman Bruce Cole. "I congratulate them on their winning essays, and want to thank the many students who submitted quality essays."
President George W. Bush launched NEH's We the People initiative at a White House ceremony in September 2002. Through the Idea of America essay contest and other programs, We the People strengthens the teaching, study, and understanding of American history and culture. This year's contest drew more than 1,500 entries from 11th-grade public, private, and home-schooled students across the nation. Eligible essays, submitted by the March 15, 2004, deadline, were evaluated first by 40 history teachers. Members of the National Council for the Humanities then reviewed the highest scoring essays and recommended finalists to the NEH Chairman, who selected the winners.
The Ford's Theatre ceremony on Oct. 18 also will include the second annual "Heroes of History" lecture to be delivered by Harold Holzer, one of the nation's leading authorities on the Civil War era, who will speak on "Abraham Lincoln, American Hero." As part of the We the People program, this annual lecture will be delivered by an acclaimed humanities scholar to tell the story of heroic figures in American life and history.
NEH gratefully acknowledges major support provided to We the People by the Honorable William D. Rollnick and the Honorable Nancy Ellison Rollnick.
Essay Excerpts
Caitlin Carroll
Marietta, Georgia
[The Civil War] was a fight not just for the abolition of a barbaric practice, or for a single group of people - although those motives can never be overemphasized - but it was a fight for the very freedoms America had declared sacred at her formation.
Leah Nolan
Twin Lake, Michigan
Lincoln … drew upon the language of the Declaration of Independence, not as a source of binding law, but rather as the wellspring of hope, a firm ideal and a way to shape and guide our country's march toward freedom.
Avram Sand
Teaneck, New Jersey
This was not the first time Lincoln had declared the Civil War to be one of ideas and not interests … There is still "unfinished work which they who fought here [at Gettysburg] have thus far nobly advanced." America is still fighting for those very freedoms to which Lincoln alluded.
Rachel Shafer
Longmont, Colorado
Its brevity lends weight to every word, and it is not only brief, but simple, with a succession of ideas as powerful and inevitable as the cannon blasts that had echoed through Gettysburg four months before.
Laura Srebro
Napa, California
In the 140 years since the Gettysburg Address, America has been challenged many times to preserve the enduring freedoms given to us by the founding fathers, redefined by Lincoln at Gettysburg, and expanded by subsequent generations of Americans.
Brian Thurbon
Topeka, Kansas
Since the founding of the United States of America in 1776, our nation has sought to articulate its most fundamental values, to remind citizens of their duty to their nation and each other, and to preserve its unique emphasis on freedom.

Story highlights
- First black, female student president removed for mocking white classmates at NJ prep school
- Student says she only mocking white, misogynist culture of the school
- Former student: "On my way to class and back, I passed by three confederate flags"
Money, prestige and race are front and center in an ongoing controversy surrounding one of the most expensive prep schools in the country and its former student-body president.
Maya Peterson was the first black female student president of The Lawrenceville School, an affluent academy for boarding and day students located in New Jersey.
This March, after Peterson mocked her white male classmates on Instagram, she claims she was asked to step down or face disciplinary action.
According to reports, Peterson took the first option and resigned under administrative pressure.
The Instagram photos that led to Peterson's ouster are seemingly harmless: Peterson is dressed in stereotypical preppy male clothing, holding a hockey stick and staring straight into the camera.
But with added hashtags including "#confederate," "#romney2016" and "#peakedinhighschool" some Lawrenceville students thought the pictures were offensive.
"You're the student body president, and you're mocking and blatantly insulting a large group of the school's male population," one student commented on the photo.
Some took it further.
On the school's Facebook alumni page, comments included some visceral personal attacks calling Peterson "a racist" and one post referring to her has a "miserable person" and "spoiled malcontent."
"The PC policies and diversity for the sake of diversity over the last fifteen years ... have precipitated this sort of event," one commenter said.
Peterson acknowledged her post could make white students uncomfortable.
"Yes, I am making a mockery of the right-wing, confederate-flag hanging, openly misogynistic Lawrentians," Peterson told BuzzFeed. "If that's a large portion of the school's male population, then I think the issue is not with my bringing attention to it in a lighthearted way, but rather why no one has brought attention to it before."
Peterson could not be reached for comment by CNN as of publication.
Posting the Instagram photo was a response to fellow classmates' concerns regarding her yearbook picture, Peterson told BuzzFeed. In the yearbook photo, she and 10 black friends raised their fists in the classic "black power" salute.
Peterson's point of view is not unfounded, according to other Lawrenceville graduates.
Anthony Smith graduated from The Lawrenceville School in 2007 and recounted several instances of racism on campus, in an e-mail exchange with CNN.
In some cases racial slurs were directed at him, he said.
"I was really weirded out by how flippantly (racial slurs) were used," he said.
Other things on campus made him uncomfortable.
"On my way to class and back, I passed by three confederate flags," Smith said.
Smith noted that, to his knowledge, those responsible for the flags were never punished.
"The fact that Maya and friends were reprimanded for throwing up black power signs that made white students uncomfortable but these white students are never, to my knowledge, reprimanded for making black students uncomfortable is the definition of racism."
A school representative declined to comment on the presence of confederate flags on campus.
In a statement, The Lawrenceville School said it "works hard to foster an inclusive, open and engaging atmosphere that gives all students opportunities to be heard, feel respected and succeed."
Prior to the Instagram photo, Peterson was involved in several controversial incidents, according to BuzzFeed.
Soon after Peterson's election, Dean of Students Nancy Thomas told students she had received anonymous photographs that included evidence of marijuana usage and inappropriate tweets by Peterson. As detailed in an article in The Lawrence, the school newspaper, the tweets were found to be fabricated, and Peterson apologized for the drug usage.
The yearbook "salute" and Instagram photo were the final straw. Peterson was ousted as student-body president.
CNN confirmed Peterson has since graduated from The Lawrenceville School.
"I understand why I hurt people's feelings, but I didn't become president to make sure rich white guys had more representation on campus," she said.
"Let's be honest. They're not the ones that feel uncomfortable here."
Other students disagree, and believe The Lawrenceville School serves all its students with integrity.
Lindsey Gallinek, a 2012 Lawrenceville alumna now at Wake Forest University, posted a response to the BuzzFeed article titled, "In response to poor reporting."
"While I may never know what Maya Peterson endured, I do know that Lawrenceville tried to shape us to be the best people we could be," she wrote. "Students were constantly exposed to current events and controversial issues because The Lawrenceville School wanted us to realize that there are still many problems in the world."
Gallinek placed blame with the individual students who broke the school's honor code, including Peterson.
"While Maya Peterson should not have Instagrammed that photo because she was acting as a leader, the students quoted in the article should not have made such strong statements against her."
Even Smith, the 2007 alumnus who remembers instances of racism on the Lawrenceville campus, wanted to stress the kind nature of some faculty members.
Smith, who is openly gay, says that during his time there, staff went out of their way to make sure he felt comfortable.
One adviser for the Catholic Students Club added "that's so gay" to the swear jar to limit bullying.
"I felt so safe," Smith said. "I will never forget that as long as I live."
Even so, he stands with Peterson.
"Being comfortable enough to complain about another student by name in high school is the definition of privilege," he said. "I think that students of color at Lawrenceville stood so much more to lose when complaining about prejudice and discomfort than white students did."

Today was Roscoe's official due date.
I am beyond happy that he came a week ago instead.
I actually felt up to taking my Bono Baby out for a walk this morning and I was greeted with sweet surprises in our neighborhood.
Daffodils and Summer Snowflakes waved their hello's from our neighbors yards.
When we made it back home, we realized they were waving from our back yard as well.
They made me think about all the change that a season brings.
My season is changing as I write this.
This past week has been filled with changes.
These past nine months have been all about change.
I think I am finally getting to the good part of all of this change.
My pregnancy was hard, the delivery was awful, and the recovery has been the worst of all.
Being able to get out and take that special walk with my sweet Bono Baby and find that change is happening everywhere, all around me, brought me such comfort.
A dear friend advised me to "let yourself forget about it" and that is what I plan to do.
Here's to the changes that we are challenged with and to the magic they bring along with them.
love love,
Fritzi Marie

World stocks rise amid positive U.S. jobs data
BANGKOK (AP) — World stock markets rose Monday after an unexpectedly strong U.S. jobs report pushed Wall Street to new highs. Malaysian shares jumped after the country's ruling political alliance won national elections.
The Dow Jones industrial average and the Standard & Poor's 500 index both rose to record highs Friday after the Labor Department reported that U.S. employers added 165,000 workers last month and many more in February and March than previously estimated. The unemployment rate fell to 7.5 percent, which was the lowest level in four years.
The report counterbalanced weeks of mixed signals about manufacturing and corporate earnings and renewed hopes of a recovery in the world's largest economy.
"Markets just came back to life, helped by that strong reading from U.S. nonfarm payrolls. That number completely obliterated expectations," said Stan Shamu, market strategist at IG in Melbourne.
Britain's FTSE 100 rose 0.9 percent to 6,521.46. Germany's DAX was 0.1 percent higher at 8,133.68. France's CAC-40 was nearly unchanged at 3,912.64. Wall Street appeared headed for yet more gains, with Dow futures rising 0.1 percent to 14,919. S&P 500 futures rose 0.1 percent at 1,610.10.
In Asia, Malaysia's KLSE Composite surged 3.4 percent to 1,752.02 after the country's governing coalition won national elections, albeit with a weakened majority, to extend its unbroken, 56-year rule.
"We will likely see the (government) pay greater attention to fiscal consolidation after the string of populist handouts in the run-up to elections," analysts at Bank of America Merrill Lynch said in a commentary.
Hong Kong's Hang Seng rose 1 percent to 22,915.09. Australia's S&P/ASX advanced 0.5 percent to 5,156.20. Benchmarks in Singapore, Taiwan and Indonesia also rose, while the Philippines fell. South Korea's Kospi lost 0.2 percent to 1,962.25. Japan's stock market was closed for a public holiday.
Surging copper prices helped companies involved in producing the widely used industrial metal. Australia's OZ Minerals surged 9.5 percent. Hong Kong-listed Jiangxi Copper rose 5.2 percent. Australia's BHP Billiton, the world's largest mining company, rose 2.8 percent.
Benchmark oil for June delivery was up 63 cents to $96.24 per barrel in electronic trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange. The contract rose $1.62 to close at $95.61 a barrel on the Nymex on Friday.
In currencies, the euro fell to $1.3107 from $1.3110 late Friday in New York. The dollar rose to 99.35 yen from 99.04 yen.

Just read where the Orioles resigned Chris to a 7 year, 161 million dollar contract. I think this is great, can't wait for spring training to start. The Orioles need his power AND leadership. It is good to see Peter A., finally spending some of money to keep the team competitive!

Scientists using a pioneering bio-imaging system to record simultaneously the development of hundreds of aquatic embryos have discovered significant parent-offspring similarities in the timing and sequence of that development.
Researchers at Plymouth University have found the timing of key developmental milestones – such as the first beating of the heart, formation of the eyes and movement – differs markedly between individuals in a species of aquatic snail, but also that these timings appear to be heritable, i.e. they are passed from mother to offspring.
The study, made possible by a purpose-built piece of kit combining a high depth of focus lens more commonly found in aviation safety, a shutterless digital camera, and a robotic microscope stage, sheds new light on the relationship between development and evolution. It is being published in the Royal Society journal Proceedings of the Royal Society B on Wednesday 21st August.
The research, carried out in the Marine Biological and Ecology Research Centre, has taken place over the past four years as scientists carefully constructed and refined their imaging set up.
Dr Oliver Tills, project lead, said: "The link between development and evolution has remained one of the key questions in biology. Science has long suspected that heterochrony – the altered timing of developmental events between ancestors and descendants – could be the main driver of evolutionary change, but studies have primarily focused on the differences in developmental events between species with the assumption that within species variation is negligible. What we have been able to do is bring to light the astounding variation within species and show that event timing during early development is heritable."
Snail embryos were placed in tiny little aquaria and their development recorded in high definition three-dimensional detail using time lapse photography. The bio-imaging setup enabled the team to pinpoint changes in the animal right through its body, so that they could record the precise timings of 12 key developmental milestones such as the formation of the eyes, of the shell, and hatching, spread throughout its two week embryonic development.
The team discovered marked similarities between a parent and its offspring in all 12 developmental events studied, and in two of these events – foot attachment (the transition from gliding around the egg using tiny hairs, to attaching to the inside of the egg using its muscular foot) and crawling (the same behaviour you see in an adult snail) – the strength of this similarity was sufficiently strong that it indicated heritability.
Dr Simon Rundle, Associate Professor in Freshwater Ecology, said: "There was clear evidence of similarities in the timing of all 12 physiological and morphological developmental events between parents and offspring, and of heritability in the timing of foot attachment and crawling."
Professor John Spicer, also of Plymouth University, added: "These results challenge how we understand the interaction between development and evolution. They shed light on the potential origins of a pervasive feature in evolution – the difference in the timing of developmental events which is so evident between species. And that's exciting."
The research team, part of the University's Faculty of Science and Environment, and its Marine Institute, took the decision to build the unique device after they approached some of the world's leading lens-makers and microscope manufacturers, only to be told that nothing existed that could do what they wanted. The device they've created has a range of between 20 to 10,000 times magnification, and can be used to study the development of species ranging from single-cell organisms to zebrafish, with up to 384 specimens in separate little aquaria at any one time.
The equipment has been developed with the support of Plymouth University's Marine Institute, Research and Innovation, and the Faculty of Science and Environment.

The old Celtic Christians had this idea of 'thin places', places in the world where the veil between heaven and earth (which they supposed to be three feet apart) was particularly thinned, with heaven trickling through the veil so that one could experience and feel the presence of God more tangibly there than other places. The more I have thought about it, the more I think there is something to it and this past weekend I caught a glimpse of just what the Celtics were getting at.
This past weekend Alex and I drove up to the
The 'thin place' (if I may be presumptuous) I'm referring to is an old house on a dry grassy hillside in Cayucos overlooking the ocean. This house belongs to Bill and Lois Roark who have been family friends my whole life. They knew my dad before any of us, before my mom even and my dad reckons he has spent 1/20th of his life at their house on the hillside. The memories I have of the house are a bit spotty: spending time in their old redwood hot tub, or picking the blackberries which grew under and along the deck with my sister, watching the surf come in silently below, seeing dark shadows of owls and other nighttime creatures in the evening, but mostly I remember how beautiful and calm I always felt. Something about looking down at the ocean, or up the hill watching random deer or cows grazing, filled me, even as a child with a deep sense of God's peace.
Going back this past weekend, I experienced the same thing, and as I sat around the lunch table listening to conversation I looked around the house and noticed it hadn't changed a bit. Bill and Lois have lived at the house for 40 + years and have loved God in it for that time. I believe the fact God has been worshiped and glorified there for so long has left a spiritually tangible mark, one that is easy to miss but not really hard to find if you are looking for it. The house has a palpable tranquility, despite the fact conversation volume tends to be near yelling levels since Bill and Lois are in their mid 80's. But for me it goes beyond the mere tranquility of the surroundings and ventures into stranger and harder to describe territory. The best word I can think of is depth. The house has an unexplained spiritual depth, a sense that God is not far off, like you could go sit out on the deck and you'd be closer to him than you ever have, like you could hear his voice, soft but clear and he would have a conversation with you like he has with many over the years. I wonder how many times Jesus has comforted someone on that deck, spoken words of encouragement or calling, shared the sorrow of a deep loss or the joy of new life, or simply sat and watched the sunset.
I'll admit, I'm not sure if the sense I got had more to do with my own family history there or something else entirely, but there was no mistaking the sense of God in that place. I think places like that have marks, residual reminders of the glory of God, of the many prayers uttered and answered, of mornings when the presence of Christ was a quiet comfort and of the days or nights when the beauty and wonder of Jesus was overwhelming, those moments when heaven didn't merely trickle through the veil to earth but burst through it like a river. Something of heaven remains, subtle but present nonetheless and it is up to us to find those 'thin places' and simply be. Be silent, be overwhelmed by the peace of God, be open to the whispers of Christ, and be fully yourself in the quiet presence of the Creator.

Choosing a digital marketing agency for your business should not be difficult.
A reputable agent will give you a personalized and hard-earned experience.
Here are 5 ways to know that you will get both:
You have done your research
The fact that you are reading this says that you are looking for a digital marketing agency and you have a good handle for your own needs.
Whether you are looking specifically for companies that specialize in SEO, or you need a blog for your website, narrowing down what you need will help you in the search and budgeting process.
If you do not get a piece of digital marketing cake, you will lose business on the competition every day. Having someone to help you strategize and fulfill your marketing goals is a good first step to getting your profits on an upward trend.
You Got a Budget
Digital marketing is not free, but there are many free services and tools to start pointing you in the right direction and help you better understand your weak web presence.

This statistic shows how all shopping places have been done in digital advertising over the past 15 years. After a significant decline in 2010, the numbers have been rising again.
Digital marketing users learn how to get the most out of their advertising dollars. Being choosy choosing an agent will only help you stay on the budget and get the specific results you want.
You've looked around
Research is not just about knowing your own market, it's about knowing which digital marketing agency will work best for your business.
Of course there is no shortage of agencies out there who are ready to sell you many services you do not need. Create a list of questions to help you narrow your search such as:
What is my specific goal in digital marketing?
What kind of marketing is best for serving my target clients?
What have I tried before that have not worked yet?
Once you know the specifics, it's time to ask some questions about the company that made a short list for your questions.
The Digital Marketing Agency Potential Checklist
Does this company have a good reputation and do they follow best SEO practices and Google webmaster guidelines?
Can I buy this company?
If I do not like the service, am I stuck on a long-term contract?
You Can Stand
You know who you are, what your business needs are, and your budget is set. The last thing you need to do now is a false promise by a company that can not provide it.
Ask potential marketing agents to prove past successful campaigns and do not be influenced by sales tactics that you know are not relevant to your business.
However …
Do not be Afraid to Take Risks
Listen to professional advice. Do not just say that you need a particular service. Ask questions and understand that all forms of marketing are accompanied by a number of risks.

Q: How do I know which aeration system is right for my pond?
Tim – Warren, OH
A: Yes, aeration systems can be confusing. If you're not used to working with calculations that involve a lake's surface area, depth and shape, deciding which system fits your fish pond can be a complicated matter.
Well get out your tape measure and calculator, because we've made the process easy. Here's what you need to know to pick the right aeration system for your needs.
Pond Size
First, you'll need to determine the size of your pond or lake so you can select a powerful enough aeration system to handle it. To calculate its surface area, measure the length and the width, multiply them, and then divide that number by 43,560. Each aeration system lists the pond surface area that it can handle on the package for easy selection.
Pond Depth
Once you know your pond or lake's surface area, you then need to figure in its depth. It plays an important role in the system compressor's efficiency and aeration area—the deeper the pond, the more area one diffuser can handle; the shallower the pond, the less area it can handle.
Look for the system that will handle the surface area at the depth of your pond. Ponds less than 6 feet deep will benefit from an efficient shallow water system, like the Airmax® Shallow Water Aeration System. It allows for multiple aeration plates that can be spread across the pond for more efficient aeration where the lack of depth reduces the area a diffuser can handle.
Pond Shape
Finally, take a look at your pond's shape. If you have a round pond, it's relatively easy to fit an aeration system, like the Airmax® Deep Water Aeration System, based simply on its size and depth. If you have a long, narrow pond or one with odd shapes or coves, however, you may require additional diffusers for optimum circulation.
Still having a problem figuring out the aeration puzzle? Let us help! We can look up your pond via satellite and size the aeration system for you along with a layout for diffuser placement. Just give us a call or shoot us an email!

Former ICE agent hosts Tancredo fundraiser
Former ICE agent Cory Voorhis — a central figure in the 2006 governor's race — co-hosted a fundraiser Wednesday for Tom Tancredo.
Tancredo estimated he has raised about $100,000 since announcing last month he was running for governor on the American Constitution Party ticket.
"One thing I do not have to do is spend $1 million to develop name recognition," he said. "There's plenty of that out there."
That got a big laugh from the crowd who attended the event in Jefferson County near C-470 and Alameda.

Post subject: GAMSAT 2ND time- Need advice!!
Hey guys
I'm thinking of doing gamsat this year for the second time. First time, i got a score of 61, but with the cutoffs rising each year, i didn't want to take any chances. However, i'm worried about this second time attempt and whether you really do improve on ur second attempt. I know some of you have done the exam more than once and wanted to know what your experiences were :) I know i can always use the 61 but.. yeah, really would like to improve.
Ps- before anyone asks, no i didnt apply to unis which my 61 score as I'm still yet to finish my bachelors degree (this year's my last).
Please help, i'm worrying myself sick lol.

I know lots of people who have sat GAMSAT several times and have very little change score wise..... I've also read a few anecdotes here about people achieving huge changes (but I can't confirm the validity of those stories).
If you studied hard, and got a 61, then I would guess that you're probably unlikely to make a massive shift in your score.... if you did very little, then with a more intensive study program I'm sure you could improve your score significantly.
I guess the question to ask is "what do I lose by sitting GAMSAT again?"
If you get 61 again, or less, does it really matter?
I would suggest that as long as studying for, and sitting GAMSAT doesn't adversely effect your current undergraduate studies, then go for it. Perhaps knowing the format, and being a little more relaxed might reap dividends.....
From a bigger picture perspective, the overwhelming majority of things I learnt studying for GAMSAT have come in useful for Medicine..... so perhaps you can look at the second round of GAMSAT study as a way of consolidating your base knowledge for Med 2012?
The biggest advice I can give you is to learn to deal with your stress. Being freaked out about Medicine over 12 months before starting is a recipe for disaster..... Try and reframe that energy into something positive (I know... easy to say from the other side).
Good luck, and keep us posted how you go.

I would go again, I took the gamsat twice and my score jumped 11 points. The 2nd round you are more calm and prepared and you manage your time and concentration better.
You can also re-prepare and re-study which I found makes a huge difference in science, in my first attempt I knew the theory but in my second I understood the theory and how it was all interconnected.
Definately take it again!

Hello all,
I recommend doing it again, most of the people I've spoken to have gotten the same or higher.
I have a really really dumb question to ask everybody though - I got 64 in 2010 and am going to sit it again, just wanted to double check that if I get less than 64 (haven't done much study compared to last year) I can still use last year's score, discard 2011 score and it'll be all good? If it's crap, my 2011 score can just be thrown out?

Thanks for that guys!. the first time i did it, i barely had time to prep so yeah it was just at trial year. Im actually taking a course this time and dedicated a good 2.5 months to study for the gamsat (im doing abt an hr study each day). I feel a lot more prepared but im not expecting any major shifts in my score. Im hoping to get a 63 this time round. I think thats a reasonable expectation? lol.

sounds very possible jazz, you may even do better than 63, it is not uncommon for some people to increase their score by 8 or more points on their second attempt

Hey guys
Ive realised that Ive made a massive mistake in my preparation in the last 3 months. I have only been learning science knowledge. I know biology like the back of my hand, and organic chemistry pretty well. I have also been reading books on philosophy and other classical literature, but today i looked at an ACER exam paper and crapped myself.
I cant interpret some of the logical diagrams and need to improve my reasoning skills.
Help! How do I do this? How does one improve their resoning skills and data/diagrammatic interpretation?
Thank you.

Some people decide to get a math graphic primer or even an introduction to epidemiology book, but the most time efficient and effective way to prepare is to do as you are already doing: jump in the lake, both feet first and hammer through the ACER materials. After you completed it as a timed testing experience, go through the booklet in 1-2 days thoroughly so that you consolidate your learning before going on to the next booklet (of course, there are 4 in all).
If you happen to have the Gold Standard book, there is an appendix on GAMSAT math which underlines the key relationships which come up regularly. But even so, the more helpful thing is to go over the worked solutions of the exam in the book.

Стъпка 1База HD Micro provides the perfect balance between a smoothing and mattifying effect. Ultra Foundation is a great choice, when considering the heat and desired look of natural glowing skin. HD Micro Cache палитра 5 цвята (Contouring) is used to enhance natural highlights and define contours. A focus on the cheekbones is key. The contour is enhanced at the temples and below the cheekbone. Балсам за грижа за устните is applied liberally.
Стъпка 2HD крем очна линия (bronze) is firstly swept over the eyelid up to the socket line and underneath the bottom lash line. Eye Shadow Iridescent in Сенки за очи гланц (golden sand G) is blended all over the HD Cream Liner. Сенки за очи мат (TV brown) is blended into the outer corner of the eyes and close to the root of the bottom lashes. Сенки за очи мат (shading brown) is added for a warm contrast.
Стъпка 3Сенки за очи мат (eggplant) and Lake are blended into the outer corners of the eye and along the socket line, with higher concentration in the outer corners. With a small blending brush, both colors are then, in succession, applied underneath the bottom lash line. This layering effect of slightly different tones gives a richer depth to the smokey eyes. The eyebrows are defined with Компактна пудра за вежди (dark).
Стъпка 4To add the typical sultry glamour to this look, HD крем очна линия (ebony) is applied along the top and bottom lash lines using a fine firm brush. The eyeliner gradually widens as it reaches the outer corner. The flick is placed by extending out and up from the natural curve of the bottom lash line. Individual Cluster Eyelashes in Small are built up using Лепило за мигли Pro 4 гр (black).
Стъпка 5From the Професионален комплект руж 15 цвята (Contexture) is loaded onto a fan brush with Shading Brown and R19. This warm blend of blush is then buffed along the cheekbone. Use this also to warm the jaw line and temples. Glamour Glow (natural tan) and Glamour Glow (bronzing sun) highlights the top of the cheeks and brow bone. Lip Stain (punk) and Lip Stain (gospel) are mixed together creating a rich matt lip.
